Weather Channel Widget (wide) - HTC Amaze 4G

When I try to choose the wide widget on ics I get a msg saying that there is no room and to delete other widgets...the problem is that the page is blank, no other apps or widgets. The other problem is that it worked fine when on gingerbread. My wife has the same issue on her SGSII which just upgraded to ics. So it is not ROM and or device specific. Any ideas?

Maybe it is because it is late, but I can not figure out how to resize it. Dragging it to edit does nothing, trying to pinch and zoom does nothing. Although I get a notice at the top of the screen that says to to press and hold to edit, but dothing that does nothing. Confused.

I have the same issue as well since I updated my amaze to ICS
I emailed The Weather Channel about it.. no reply yet.

Long press as if you're gonna move it, should give you arrows on each side of the widget, drag these to resize 'em.

I did a google search a few days ago and found some people on a different phone talking about the problem and it was dated in March. I can't find the thread now (not on XDA), but it sounds like it is an ICS issue and several people have notified The Weather Channel.

Nada, no go, no matter which one I use, it's all small and the wide one never goes to my home page, they need to fix it.

Whoever is facing the same issue, please send the app developer an email so they know it's a widespread problem. I really miss my wide weather channel widget. lol

The app just updated for me and the issue is fixed now .

Built in screenshot

Ok so ive someone else post about this before just canteen remember if it was on another forums or not.
Ok so earlier today i was messaging someone and i was trying to get out the message screen but my phone was taking too long or i was just impatient but anyway i kept hitting the home button then i hit the back button and all of a sudden i heard a shutter sound. Sooooo i went into my gallery and there it was a seperate folder just for "screenshots" and mind you i do have the shoot me app and the folder for that is "shoot me". Has anyone else ever experienced this? I thought it was so cool that there is/was a built in screenshot but just wish i knew how to do it again i was so excited!!

I posted this same question in the axura beauty thread. I thought it was a special addition to the axura rom. I found out that its not a rom special but its actually an android feature, only problem I haven't got an actual answer on how to access this feature nor do I know what to look for. I have googled this several times and all I get are results telling me about drocap or shootme and how to use the ddms in order to screenshot without root.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I know for a fact how to do this. I don't think you can force a screenshot with any soft touch keys but you'll notice the screenshot goes off when you're exiting an app/browser and the system freezes up briefly and when you try to hit home on the frozen screen it takes the screenshot. It's happened to me on a few occasions and I distinctly told myself to remember what was happening when the screenshot goes off and turns out it always goes off when my screen is frozen and I hit my home key, while thinking my back button wasn't registered and in fact, was registered and I just got impatient and hit my home button.
I've got a feeling it's a bug log kind of thing. Every post I've seen about it mentions that the phone locked up, and the user pressed buttons rapidly. Sure, we can take Screenshots! You have to have a crashing app to do it though.
This topic has been covered soooo many times not only here on XDA but google.

If you have a vibrant running stock froyo.ka6 you can try this screen capture app from the market:

Hmmmm it seems like StevenJCarney might be correct. Like he said it seems like it happens when peoples phones lock up & it could be a bug.
Hope it isnt a bug & someone is able to figure it out.
Same exact thing here. It really sucks an app has to crash to use it.

If you have a rooted phone you can just use an app called screenshot which works perfectly. And it's free.

[Q] Facebook App?

Alright...so I just downloaded the Facebook App for my phone, and when I attempt to upload a new status message, the app just force closes itself. I want to know if anyone else is experiencing this and if there is a fix for this?
I am not sure if this makes a difference, but I am currently running on Slim ICS.
Facebook has been...and probably will be the single most hated app ever created that everyone has.
Every single version made never works right.
I've actually sat my phone on to of my router...with all other processes off......and still took 4min to even open the app

Yeah, I am starting to hate it myself now, however, mines does not load that slow. My only problem is I cannot post status updates..and I don't feel like using a web browser to log on and do it.

Friend of mine using samsung 7plus on stock rom also having the same problem..still cannot resolve...if u dont mind..u can use other facebook apps..such as friendcaster..
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsInVrLmNvLnNlbmFiLmJsdWVOb3RpZnkiXQ..
i strongly suggest this. its not perfect, but i would say its the best facebook app out there. def better than the default. one major feature that makes it stand out is PUSH notifications for EVERYTHING...not just messages, friend requests, etc.

Haha, but mines does not work at all ever since all the updates. Has been really annoying having to log on to FB using a web browser (I use Chrome Beta or Dolphin. Either works for me) and having to update my status like that. Mines does not FC, but only when trying to update my status. Otherwise, I can basically do everything else, just cannot write a new status update.
It seems to work perfect in diferent roms. I been using euphoria for a few days and it works like a charm

Yeah, I know what you mean about the battery thing. That's why I just stopped using it, and from one of the suggestions on top, used Friendcaster up until when I deactivated my account about 5 days ago. I agree with that person that it is not perfect, but at least it gets the job done.

[MOD] Remove the HTC power saver option in the new sense Jellybean update

It was really annoying me so I did some searching and I found this thread.
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016254
Basically if you use titanium back up, you can just freeze or delete "com.htc.htcpowermanager" and it'll disappear.
I just thought I'd share with you guys, credit goes to to the guy who found this in the link above, I'm just passing it on.
EDIT: Freezing or deleting it will both cause your battery menu in settings to disappear. This isn't really an issue to me as there isn't really anything in there that you can do, besides see whats' eating your battery. IMO this is negligible especially when new roms will be rolling out soon, hopefully with a work around.
Wouldn't delete it just in u may need it later. Freezing is the best option for all annoying system apps. Thanks for sharing the link tho.

Read the edit I just made to the OP.
In JB you can long-tap on a notification and click on App Info. I did a Force Stop there, notification went away. Hopefully there are no other side effects. If there are any, I will report them.
LOL 5 minutes later, and it's back. And you cannot uncheck "Show Notifications"
I used this to get rid of mine. Think its a good alternative.

I have had mine turned off since I loaded the Rom and its still there. If we could just unlock the show notification option maybe that would turn off the one minor annoyance.
Is there documentation on what the power saver function specifically does?

Same here. I'm mostly against it because I don't know why I'd ever need it. It might actually be useful but if it does x y and z and I only want x and y I'd like to know what I'm getting into.
I can't believe no one noticed it yet but if you go to the app info there is a check box for notifications, just uncheck it and it goes away

Liquid smooth v3.1 ***solved***

Dunno if this has been mentioned or not I rarely have time to read through all the posts sorry. I've been using this ROM about a week and its great, I love it. I've flashed pollutions patch, issue I'm having is when I'm on home screen or lock screen the wallpaper disappears and I get these crazy lines that flash across the screen. It's impossible to take an ss cause every time I try it goes away and the wallpaper reappears. I thought my screen was going funky at first so I reflashed padawan and it didn't happen. Do I need to reflash pollutions? Is this considered the "screen flicker"? Has anyone else had this issue? I've only had my note for about 2 months and between two jobs I don't get much forum surfing in (my lady hates me being on the phone) any help is greatly appreciated!!!

in the build.prop there's multiples of the same item with different values. Just go through and double check everything in your build.prop, I'm not entirely sure what causes it. Bad luck i guess lol. Feel free to PM me with any other questions. Sorry it took so long to answer

I read through it top to bottom and removed any conflicting entries. There was only 2-5 not a big deal but enough to tweak out the system. For example, two entries of the same thing but one says "mm.enable.smoothstreaming=true" and the following says "mm.enable.smoothstreaming=false" just remove one or the other. Not saying that's one of them I just grabbed a random entry from my build.prop
