dont see that option....

Have you successfully side loaded any apps, is it enabled on your device?

You will need to enable non market apps

You have to enable sideloading. Search for it on youtube. There are a couple videos on how to do it. Or follow the above link. Att keeps us away from bring able to set the option to side load.

Yeah I know. You have to enable sideloading, or you can only use the apps from the market.

That's a good question. As Android continues to grow, it will probably be required to have one since these smartphones are doing more and more.

+1 to this. The locate and alarm feature is great. Plus, it scans every app you install and backups all contacts and pictures. And free, too. I think Lookout would be your best bet.

[Q] Yahoo log in required?

Just today with my rooted but otherwise stock Captivate I am getting a log in screen for the default Yahoo home page.
Anyone else having this issue?
I guess I can just change my home page.
Are you on wifi or at&t service?

On AT&T. Haven't checked Wifi. Currently not on.
Do you have a login? Because my theory is that it wants to bring you somewhere other than under homepage.

I never needed a log in before. It just pulled up the ATT/Yahoo page. I did sideload an app recently, though I don't know how that would affect the default homepage login.
What app did you sideload?

It was a very simple app my brother-in-law developed for me. It just takes a couple of variables and calculates something involving an arctangent and displays it.
If you allowed it to access three internet, it might mess with the settings. Try uninstalling the app and see if that does anything, or, just change your homescreen to google or something lol.

Sounds like it's a vibrant ROM thing... you get the t-mobile/yahoo page as default.
Too strange though.

Yeah I will uninstall it to see. Can't imagine that it accesses the net, but my B-in-law is just getting his feet wet with Android programming.
<pause> Uninstalled it and still get log in screen. I will reboot.
<pause> Rebooted -- same problem. Guess I'll just pick a different homepage.

i think you are confused on what you want, or at least have all of us confused. are you referring to SETCPU? if so, that is a paid app and nobody here should show you how to get it on your phone....thats promoting piracy, and its a no-no
putting an app on your phone never requires odin....so you have us stumped, dude
Its not piracy if the dev put it on the xda site for its members to use, and there is a way somebody told me I just can't seem to remember

Sigh.
Ok dude. I'll play along. It's called side loading. Enable side loading on your current rom or use adb and install from your computer. Either way, odin is not used at all. You have some reading to do anyway because setcpu really shouldn't be used on our phones

Thx for the helpful suggestions. Market enabler requires root, and thats beyond my mental capacities....I barely got this typed up. Lol
