Does anyone know why I keep getting this album popping up every time I reboot my phone? It's really annoying.
Also, is there any way to re-load the media scanner without restarting the phone?
And lastly, I somehow have some picasa albums synced to my phone and I can't delete them. I don't even have photos sync option turned on so I'm not sure why they're there.

What are your thoughts? Has your market updated yet?
It look nice, but it has hidden one important feature from me: The ability to set whether apps auto-update or not!! Anyone know a way around this?
not yet.....
i keep checking it every 20 mins....

Sure can.
Lemme know if that works.
thank you so much!!!! you are the best!!!

Not sure. The application manager says it's version 2002207. So... 2.2.7?
I didn't receive it, but after clearing the app cache I got it directly

Press on "My apps" and then the app you want to change settings for. Then deselect "Allow automatic updating" in the beginning of the white area.
I meant how to stop the market from auto-updating.
Edit: When I first got that update, the option to stop individual apps from auto-updating was missing. In a recent update it has returned, however.
But I still want the market to stop updating silently in the background. I'd rather it let me know than "SURPRISE! The market has updated against your will! So much for an open platform!"

[Help]Sync won't stay unchecked

Anyone else getting the issue .. when I uncheck sync in settings.. it checks its self ... no matter how many times I uncheck it ... it always checks its self back up again.
Had this same issue on bionix-v 1.2
I'm on flagship4 now..
Any solutions?
Wipe out dalvik cache thru recovery if that doesn't work Odin back. Then reflash.
I don't think people would like to help u if you post in develop section.
You would get more answer in q&a section.

I have before in the past and got no results..
This is the reason why I posted it here.
I cant reproduce this. Which sync box are you trying to uncheck? Is the apps auto sync button still ticked while you are un-ticking a specific account?

It's the auto sync button.. the one below background data..
I'm on Eugene's 35 kernel.. starting to wonder if it might be that.
Don't see how the kernel would relate to this specific sync issue
I'm on flagship and it always rechecks tmobile contacts in display options. I don't even know why they were added in the first place but yeah they eventually show again. Wont allow me to remove that account either. Sync itself stays off tho. Well the box stays unchecked I should say.

Delete the apk, it's completely useless. As for sync enabling itself again..I have no issues whatsoever, but I deleted the tmo apk.

I just rebooted the phone and here is the folder now:

Download AppZorter Lite on the Play Store, this can remove the gaps left and sort the apps by name or install date automatically.

Thanks! I tried this and sorted, but my folders still the same (Applications did sort, though, and that's awesome). I even restarted phone.

Having trouble linking facebook contact pics...

I had no issue with this with my original Evo 4G. Once I had contact's linked to their Facebook accounts, their FB image would appear as their contact image. The only exception to this would be if they had a Google image.
I'm having trouble getting the same thing to work on the new 4G LTE. The contacts are definitely linked. However their FB image doesn't appear. Just the default "anonymous grey dude" image.
If you are having the same issue as above(which I had) try these:
1. HaxSync
or
2. FaceBook Contact Sync
This worked for me!!! Finally all my contacts have pictures!!!! Found this fix while googling...not my work. Just wanted to share!
EDIT: Nevermind...

Do a Google search for 'Photo Unlocker APK' and you might be able to find the app that will solve your problem.
I'm using it and it works great:

There was a thread here on this forum that had a working link, but unfortunately, that link is now dead for whatever reason.

I use this to. It unlocks the photos in other apps on your phone like messenger and others but it still wouldn't work for me in the people app. Thats why I posted what i found.
In your search did you ever find an app that syncs your Facebook calendar with your Google calendar? Sense does this just fine, but if I switch to a non-Sense ROM someday I'd still like that feature.
My limited searching kept pulling up instructions on "syncing" the two by exporting the FB calendar and importing it into Google's, which obviously isn't the same as syncing the two.

[Q] Various problems after screen repair

I broke my screen a few weeks ago, so I repaired it. It (digitizer+display) working basically ok, but I got some other problems.
1. I get fc´s everywhere, sometimes the apps work, sometimes not...
2. I can´t play any music or videos (exept web streaming videos like youtube)., all my music apps get immediatly fcs.
I already tried lots of roms (MROM, Neutrino, Topsmarts...., also ics ones) and different music player apps, but it won´t work.
Do you think something might been damaged during the repairment?
Edit: Oh, I almost forgot, my CPU won´t toggle anymore, runs at max. all the time...
Possibly ribbon cables not seated correctly.

You may have a 'phantom touch' somewhere which is somehow keeping your phone active. Try downloading a digitizer test app and seeing if your phone thinks it's being touched when it's not.
