[Galaxy 3 General] nathan.lopes:
Blame Geo-Tagging

The reason why our phone can't (normally) take phtos is because of geo-tagging.

Note that when you use the camera.apk, there's a live notification at the top, a sattelite getting sinal. The camera is trying to associate your photo (it happens with any app that uses camera) with the place where you took it. :(

When I flashed the Apollo 1.0 rom (deodexed custom rom), this problem was solved. The camera.apk don't even show this notification, and I was able to take as many photos as I wanted to with no crashes. I tryed to use his apk in others roms... but no success. I don't know if are some dependencies, libraries... But I know that it worked! :)

What I do is to turn off networks (fligth mode), and take photos. Works perfect!
[Galaxy 3 General] jaskiratsingh:
Can you share the camera.apk and if available camera.odex? I will try to update the camera.apk in JPM and test?
[Galaxy 3 General] sahilrana:
i kind of guessed that geo tagging was involved ...is it not possible to turn it off
[Galaxy 3 General] jaskiratsingh:
To disable geo tagging, you need to go to Settings > Location and Security and uncheck Use Wireless Networks

You can also try to reset the camera settings. I tried this and it worked for me but if i take too many pictures back to back, it crashes
[Galaxy 3 General] nathan.lopes:
I tried to do that. Use the .apk (there's no .odex file) in another rom. But it didn't work. Maybe it's because some lib was altered (or something like this!:D), and I do not know what's the dependencies. I do not have Apollo1.0 installed in my phone anymore, and atm I can't flash again to get the files. Sorry!

Maybe with the new rom "Apocalypse" that is coming (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1008546) this problem will be solved again. (Apollo is working with other devs in this rom). I'll wait for that, and then I will try to help you!

Sorry!:o

unfortunately im not that skilled in linux/android to know what exactly the issue could be, but i guess the set ISCAN failed and the Unknown private command, are the things causing it to stop. the ISCAN failed line goes without end if i dont disable wifi than, i got the dmesg dump by rebooting the phone with turned off wifi, than after all loaded i connected the phone over adb, turned wifi on and did dmesg to file. if anyone would like the whole file (its unbelievably 26 pages long wtf?) pm me.

thanks for the time guys

I use adw launcher and it has many themes in the market! Hope this helps :) also zedge has good wallpapers for the streak its a nice app
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] besony:
Me too have not seen any direct ready_to_install themes.

You have to go through the Launchers.

ADW

Go

Pro Launcher​

You install either of these and you can download themes for these from the market.

But, I think you need to buy them, to be able to theme and all other stuff (thats bit advanced, like settings, etc.)

Cheers,

Sony.

have a look at the Screenshot thread (in theme and apps section)

and there people have written what they used/have_done to get the "theme".

It needs work to be done. not easy-peasy though.

But, the results are awesome!

hi,

do you use some switch apps like switch pro or extended controls or sth like that?

and do you have the proper baseband for those roms you use?

otherwise i would suggest to start at the very beginnig: flash with SEUS, root, xrec & flash the rom again..

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] option94:
you need to do the temp root again after getting s=off one more time. Then it will stick.

what is the difference between froyo 2.2 and gingerbred comparing everything and comparing with 2.1 as well

Its a very basic question i want to ask dont kill me as i am new in that.

thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alucard93:
it's a updated that include fix to the software to improve it or get more stability, or add some characteristics. Between the 2.2 and 2.3 I can say that the major point that improve is about the speed.

Edit: My sd card is working again! :) I would advise anyone not to use the App Mybackup or Mybackup Pro because this is what caused my problems!

I recently rooted my Evo with

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=838448

Anyway i backed up my apps and i started to attempt to restore them. While doing this all of a sudden my evo started saying that it had critical memory left and i had to power it down. So i restarted my Evo and noticed that all the apps installed on my phone but not SD card. So i proceded to remove them all because whenever i tried to move the apps to the SD with Apps2Sd or the phone application function itself i kept on getting "Unable to move application" or something along those lines.

Anyway im wonder is there anyway that i can fix this problem to enable me to store apps on my sd? I can connect the sd card to the computer and manage the files.

Also i have tried to format the sd card but i still have the same problem.

I am about to try a nandroid restore and see if that will help anything.

I also cannot install apps of the market because they fail when the try to install to my Sd. So any installation to my phone i need to unmount the sd card.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Unheard:
Just thought I would give a heads up to anyone who wants to rid themselves of the annoying boot sound.

It is located in /system/media and the file name is FinalThunder.mp3. Move it to FinalThunder.mp3.old and it's gone.

I'd write a quick update script, but the new update-binary format escapes me.

Hope that helps.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nic2112:
Good tip, I was glad that moving that sound file to somewhere more accessible was part of the ROM image cause I also like to remove that sound. I like to tinker with the phone at work sometimes so a quiet boot is necessary ;)

I know whatcha mean man. I can just imagine me rebooting in school with a crack of THUNDA! Thanks Unheard.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] bikeandestroyx:
You need to use root explorer or another root file explorer.

I noticed when you remove the bootanimation from the same folder the stock android boot animation is used!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jacobk:
thank god. i was so sick of that sound when rebooting.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mapekz:
It's in the /system folder, meaning to modify it:

1) You need to be logged in as a super-user (root).

2) You need to make the /system directory writable.

1) Root your device, adb shell into it, and type "su".

2) Upon logging in as su, type:

mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system

captain please help me when u get a free moment. last week i tried to install and it kept telling me no sd card found. mine was in there and functioning. laid this down and tried it again with the qr code again tonight and it finally worked. it installed but when i press "remove startup sound" i get "removal of boot sound unsuccessful." when i press "restore startup sound from backup" i get "restoring from backup failed, try install option."

im not completely new to androids/smartphones but im not fully advanced either. kinda stuck in the middle of newbies and tech savvy ppl. like installing a new app or program on ur computer sometimes a full reboot is needed for the program to run at all or properly. i still get the annoying thunderbolt sound.

when i first got the phone it was cool. now its just flat out annoying. on my older droid x i sold my dad when i upgraded to the TB, i had an option for silencing the startup sound or changing them. so far, i have not seen that option on here. i can deal with the graphics of the thunderbolt just the sound is driving me crazy.

from what ive read, having a rooted phone voids the warranty and/or insurance thru verizon? not sure on any real hard facts so my phone is stock.

thanks in advanced for any help u can give.

I think you are going to need to be rooted.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] psych2l:
I emailed the dev and this was his response

A great number of users are complaining about the compatibility and running performance. Considering the bad ratings, I temporarily unpublished it. I am doing a rewrite of some of the core modules. Don't worry, N64oid will be back much better in 1-2 months.

Thanks for the understanding! I won't let people down
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] AndroidFileHost:
Ya people are retarded. Brand new app and they expect it to be flawless. Hate complainers. I actually did download I from a sharing site first but was impressed and decided to buy it.

have you tried amazonappstore... there should be a app in the market place for that. if not try amazon.com
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jxr94:
I don't think he was serious but the amazon app store is nice.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bradleyw801:
I don't blame him for doing this. People were all bent out of shape that it was $6 and he didn't have every rom working flawlessly. They rate bombed his app in the market.

The truth is that even if you only had 3 games working well, that should be worth your $6.

Oh well, now because everyone cried we can sit here with the app in it's current version, and wait 2 months for him to release a finished product instead of having something useable with updates all along the way.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] UKLooney:
Unrelated, but I just got a notice from google saying that one of my apps (a space invaders emulator) has been removed due to copyright infringement, even though it includes no roms.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] apheonixboy:
I wonder why people complain about it about its sluggishness.

I mean, its not the developers fault that the people don't buy high-end phones.

They expect a 3D emulator to work on a 600mhz proccessor?

I mean, too many apps on ur phone also makes it slow.

Why bother leaving a low rating when its not the developers fault. The emulator runs flawlessly on the Evo, nexus s... (1 ghz+)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Ryjabo:
I was being sarcastic.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Drewmungus:
Dude are you seriously that cheap! Android apps are most of the time a dollar maybe two. The ones that are more are usually well worth it. Six dollars for something that lets you play N64 games anywhere you go is cheap, and you know you didn't pay for any of the 1000 games you have to play for it. Plus With the huge number of free apps, paying a dollar for the one out of every twenty apps is crazy cheap.

Sorry for the rant, but stealing a android app is like stealing from a guy with a morgage and a family vs a movie is coming out of a mega corporations pocket. Most of the Developers in the market and on here make all this awesome stuff because they like too, with the added side effect of making money. Support the developers so they will keep make cool stuff!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] beatblaster:
I wouldn't even worry about that guy. He'll probably need the Android Market Security Tool eventually with that kind of attitude.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Overstew:
Please don't pirate these apps...it only demoralizes the devs that work hard to make profit from it. Stolen copies = less updates.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Ryjabo:
If they enter into the app development world, they've got to know/expect that people will pirate their apps. It's inevitable. If they get butthurt about it and stop updating their apps because of that, then they probably don't have what it takes to compete in this arena.

Having said that... I've paid for the apps that are on my phone.
