As title suggests, am looking for Car Home (by google) that works on the x8.
Basically, I just want an app that switches to 'car mode' whenever I choose it to, and has big easy buttons on the screen when the phone rings, and and automatic transfer to the speaker.
Any ideas?
Thanks
This might help

Nope, doesn't work. 'Application not installed'.
Don't I need a seperate launcher as well for it?

1) Everything can wake up except menu button.
2) Camera button is now activated by a 3 second press
3) Settings -> Language & Keyboard -> Untick Default Input Settings
Hope this helped =)
My camera button wont open up cam app. Hold for 10 sec now

For the annoying language bar, you can opt for a better option. Use swiftkey or Smart keyboard and it will replaced the language bar with text prediction box. A lot more useful.
For me the most annoying thing is the blue theme that has got even worse and still can't be changed!!!
Other than that I'm pretty happy with the update. I might not say that in a few weeks once I've tried everything but for now I'm happy.

Cheers I can confirm this works
I've gone with anysoftkeyboard which is free and doesnt put anything on your screen.
In the 1.6 version of gmail - you could press shift+s and then select the text you wanted to copy into the clipboard.
Now that 2.1 has been released pressing shift+s just makes a cursor appear, which is fine if the x10 mini/pro had a trackball but it doesn't.
Does anyone know how to copy and paste in 2.1 gmail?
EDIT (2010,11,10) - Found Solution:
If you press and hold the shift button while selecting your text on the screen it copies to the clipboard just fine
(obviously this is only a solution if you have a mini pro)

Actually, after a bit of searching i've found the solution to this.

(obviously this is only a solution if you have a mini pro)
I will update my original post.
one annoyance would be that I have to use Roadsync for Microsoft Exchange?
does anyone know how to use/install default Android 2.1 email client for exchange?
is it possible with anysoftkeboard to have an on-screen keyboard with multikeys (I mean [abc] [def] [ghi] ...)? because a whole screen keyboard in portrait mode is too small, that's why I have a minipro!

Well I am talking about copying content from existing email while you are reading it. Futhermore I have mini, so no shift button, but then most of the android phones dont have qwerty so how the hell this works in general for others?

I'm not sure what you mean.. But in the gmail app you can copy text from any message (either a received, a draft or already sent) with the method that was described.
Again, i know this doesn't really help you in any way because you don't have a keyboard :-(

This works...sort of.
I now have native exchange support on my X10 mini pro.
I used root explorer to move /system/app/SemcEmailSmall.apk to my sdcard
then copied the email.apk from the link above into /system/app/ and set permissions to rw-r--r--
so far so good. Doesn't look like there is an option for calendar sync but at least exchange mail works.

Im using Void Echo with LauncherPro. Now my google search button when I press the search button. But when I go to messaging or contacts the button will work. It doesn't work on the home screen. Please advice. thanks.
delete it and try adding the widget again.
if not work update it through market then do step1 again
I did that already. delete then reinstall and also updating it. but the search key doesnt seem to work in the home screen. but f i go to messaging,contacts,music the shortcut key works. only in the homescreen it will not work.
How to make SearchKey shortcut? Please advice. Thanks,.
options>add to screen>widget
my problem is this. When i press the searchkey in the homescreen it does't work. I was hoping someone can help me making a searchkey shortcut script or watever it is,
Does it work if you use zeam (default launcer app on void) instead of launcher pro? I dont think this problem relates to the launcher but more to void, where initially google search was removed hence the shortcut is broken.
bump
any way to fix this? keymapper or anything?
Try uninstall and reinstall..

Press your hands on the icon and take it out of the dock, or wait until a menu appears on it and select remove.

Test multiple ROMs.
Nobody knows what suits you

Hello there to you all. As I noted in the title for this thread, I can´t make Now work since I installed Themer. I have a Xperia L and even though I have updated everything it still isn't working. Now starts but no cards are displayed and if you try to search it closes inmediately.
Any suggestions? Is it a known bug?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
How do you access Google Now? Is your phone rooted? We've never received an issue like this, therefore we suggest making sure that no other apps are causing this error.

My phone is stock, no root. I can't access neither by the regular swipe from the bottom nor by opening the app regularly. As soon as you try to search something it closes. No other program has problems.

What device are you using? If it's a OnePlus, then that is from their side. Themer has no relation to altering your Google Now settings, and we haven't had any other issues like this before. We recommend checking apps that you have currently installed as something else may have triggered this problem.
Install UCCW from Play Store.
2. Download this theme and and open it. Now tap on Install Skin button.
3. After you're done with installation, Long press on the Homescreen and select UCCW Widget and select the required widget as indicated by their name.
5. Go to UCCW app, press menu button and make sure the Lock Widgets are 'ON'
Instructions for adding your own app shortcuts in widgets (Hotspots)
