An Android, iOS and C# developer by day and a Linux enthusiast by night. I also enjoy web development (mostly Python), video games, chess, soccer, and voiding warranties.

I currently own an HTC EVO 4G, a Nexus 10, a Kindle Fire, and a Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I run CyanogenMod on many of my devices, and occasinally build my own ROMs, too.

Sep 20	comment	How to set MP3 ringtone in Android (Nexus S) v3+ of the Music app just doesn't have a `Set As` menu option. You could try uninstalling the updates and using an older version if you want.

Sep 17	comment	Disable smileys in SMS I think "disable" can sort of be equated to "change to text", and the answers in that question actually talk about disabling them. The summary is "no" on the stock app, and you can track this ticket on the Android issue tracker regarding it.
Sep 17	comment	Why are the checkboxes different on different devices? @Francisc: The drawables generally live in a `/system/framework/framework-res.apk` file (the pathing might be different depending on the device/ROM). Here's a screenshot of the drawable-hdpi folder in the `framework-res.apk` file that ships with CM7. The PNGs that I've outlined are the drawables used for the checkboxes, as a example. Editing can be a a little tedious, and has a tendency to cause bootloops (for me, at least...)
Sep 17	comment	Home screen bottom bar buttons @Francisc: There seem to be versions of it on the Market, but I don't know much about them, personally (never used them). Here's a quick search that has a few, though, and also looks to have some themes for other launchers (like ADW) that make it look like the stock GB one. I wouldn't be surprised if there's an .apk version floating around on XDA, too.

Sep 15	comment	How to install kernel module for android? @Brady: That sounds almost like you're NAND locked, though I'm not sure how you would have a custom ROM/kernel if you were. You could try putting them in `/data/local` or on your sdcard, perhaps, and `insmod`ing them from there, but you'd have to do it manually (or maybe use gScript or something) if the `init.rc` changes aren't sticking...
Sep 15	comment	How to install kernel module for android? @Brady: That should be all you need to do, as far as I know. Here's a mailing list reference where someone mentions it (he also apparently couldn't get it to work when the modules were in `/etc` for some reason, but he says `/lib/modules` was fine).
