Unless you are familiar with the programming, it's hard to say for sure...a music app may need to know phone state to pause and resume music when you get a call or to be able to assign songs as ringtones... just use your best judgement, or email the dev to ask why the permissions are required.

Hi,

I've just created this app for myself and wanted to share in case it's useful to anyone else.

It sends SMS via O2 UK web, you can store your web login/password and access your contacts / store sent messages in global db so accessible via other messaging clients.

It's very beta, so don't expect too much - tested only in emulators an my Galaxy S.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vigordesign:
I'm looking to get rid of the "DROIIIIIIIIDDD" sound on the boot animation. It's very loud in the morning when I turn my phone on. My incredible is rooted and I'm using the regular sense that came with the phone. No custom rom. Is it possible?

Thanks! :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Newt:
It is possible with root explorer if you have it..... what you do is open root explorer mount RW..... then you want to go into system/customize/res find the bootanimation click on it and inside you will see an mp3 file delete that and that's it.....

If I helped hit that thanks button

Custom Rom

Many rock solid custom roms, such as Virtuous and Magnolia (my favorite) have already done the service of removing that horrid noise.

Otherwise, I second the advice about renaming instead of deleting.

so i have a buddy that works for sprint and i sent him a text message this morning asking him to order me up a samsung epic for the wife (i got the EVO :D )and he replys back with "wait till sunday, sprint is getting rid of all mail-in rebates this sunday"....so my question is has anyone else heard this? my buddy is a really reliable source, just curious if anyone else heard this....?

Just got confirmation that the mail-in rebates are gonna be gone on sunday, the epic will be just straight $200
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iitreatedii:
I'm not sure, the price will go down though because of the new phones coming out that powerhouse all over the epic and evo, really they run circles around it, anyway wait 2 months and get an evo 3d or if she isn't a power user get the nexus s, it's a good balance but the better overall phone is the evo 3d, it'll be worth the wait

This changes the game a little bit. I use a Nexus One, and my contract has been over since February. I've been waiting to get the Optimus 2x, but once I found out about the at&t deal, I was put off. Now that these phones have both 3g bands, it isn't that bad to stay off contract and wait. Anyone else feel the same?
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Oh I def. do. LG surprised many people w/ their new commitment to Android. The 2x is doing well overseas, the 3D has only the Evo to contend with, and LG's tablet entry looks quite nice as well. Nice job LG!
[Droid X General] ExNight:
so im stuck and can not figure this out. for some reason the permissions for the download folders on my sd card do not have any user permissions checked. i can not download anything at all but the market is fine as it is on the internal memory i suppose. the only reason i came across the user permissions issue was because i found another post where someone had the same problem with downloading and corrected the issue by using root explorer and manually adding user permissions to any folder he used for downloading. now... here is my problem... i used root explorer and when i try to add user permissions to these folders, the settings that changed do not stick. i check mark the 3 boxes and accept the changes but if i go back into that folders specific permissions, they are unchecked once again. how can i get it to not revert back or better yet how can i just resolve the issue in whole so i dont have to keep fixing folder permissions on the sd card for app that downloads? i dont see why the sd card of all places would start having these permission issues. the guys post i came across tried to tie this issue to the fix permissions option in rom manager saying it may have caused the problem but i didnt use rom manager to fix permissions until this problem started. i was on liberty 1.5 rom then reverted back to rooted stock where i still have the problem with all downloading except the market again. any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Droid X General] ExNight:

[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
Give this a try if you have the sdk and adb set up.

from a command prompt:

1) adb devices (make sure that your phone shows up)

2) adb shell

3) su (assuming you have rooted your phone)

4) cd /mnt/sdcard/download (or whatever the folder on your sdcard for downloads is called)

5) chmod 777 /mnt/sdcard/download (or whatever your download folder is called)

this should change the permissions on your sdcard to have full permissions.
[Droid X General] ExNight:
thanks for your reply! im grateful, but wouldnt that only change the permissions for the "download" folder? which is mostly only a default location for apps such as the browser?
[Droid X General] IWHBYD:
The way sysadmin-x is suggesting makes the permissions way different than they are by default, I wouldn't recommend doing it that way.

If you want to change permissions on the entire sd card to what they are by default, try running(as root)

chown -R system:sdcard_rw /mnt/sdcard && chmod -R 075 /mnt/sdcard

Edit: that code messes up the permissions on one folder, after running that you should also run

chown -R root:root /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure && chmod -R 000 /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
Just do this: download a terminal emulator from the market. Open the app. Type su and press enter. Give it root access. Type chmod 777 /sdcard and press enter.

Please note you need root to do this

hi is there an android app to mount iso files?
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
I doubt it and i can't even begin to imagine why you'd want one! Care to elaborate?
[General Questions and Answers] rshemeld:
I have iso training video files from work and want to watch them on my phone during travels.
[General Questions and Answers] Scrub Life:
Best thing to do would be to use Power ISO to get the vids then transfer them to your phone
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
I would suggest transcoding to another format as .iso will not play on your phone. Try Handbrake which is a great, free program.
[General Questions and Answers] FLAC Vest:
Yea ISO isn't supported as a video format, you'll need another application to convert it to something decodable.
[General Questions and Answers] nold-i-spolen:
It would be nice to put a downloaded file/film directly on your phone

Or download it from your phone.

.......without having to spend a cupple og hours converting it to an other format.

My computer play iso's directly, why not also my phone?

Around 1/3 of what i download is ISO's........
[General Questions and Answers] cyansmoker:
Dude.

No, your computer does not "play iso" files. It is likely that it mounts them and plays their content, though.

What Android is missing, in your case, is a way to mount these images. It already comes with many players that will be able to play their content.
[General Questions and Answers] nold-i-spolen:
Well, yes, my computer mounts the iso, then plays the content.........(=my computer plays iso's)

rshemeld point is (and mine) that we would like our phones to do the same........we can always discuss what to call it, in what order stuff is going on, but that's beside the point.
[General Questions and Answers] doenis:
Your computer plays the videofiles contained in these cd/dvd Images, so why don't you just copy those from your pc to your phone? Chances are, you don't even have to transcode them... or, since isos are some kind of zipped files, try any unpacker you can find to open them.
[General Questions and Answers] nold-i-spolen:
One problem with that method is that the video file is chopped up into smaller pieces, I have tried to download several video players that can play them in the right order automatically..........but they couldn't
[General Questions and Answers] MysticElf:
Geez... let's name a few others other than the one the originall poster stated...

Using a bootable ISO...

You would be able to boot your computer for oh so many reasons.

1.) Unlocking a locked OS

2.) Running Defrag the way it was meant to be run (w/o the original OS locking files down).

3.) Recovering deleted files/partitions w/o having to pull the drive and use another PC.

Number 4 and prob one of the best reasons...

4.) Try to see an iPhone do that! Just another reason why a Droid no matter what flavor... is still just BETTER!

I would like to use my DroidX with an Active@ BootDisk ISO (http //www livecd com) so that I don't have to lug around another CD/USB. Plus on some networks USB devices are unauthorized unless they have biometrics. I'd still rather just boot from my phone.
[General Questions and Answers] MysticElf:
Though your reason is different than mine... I would also like to see this happen.

Esp if the PCs can see a bootable ISO as a bootable CD... and i'm sure I'm not the only one as some google searches will show. ;)
[General Questions and Answers] doktornotor:
Sure. It is even bundled with Android system.

mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/file.iso /mnt/somewhere

Does not work? Well, here is the "small" glitch. Unless

cat /proc/filesystems

returns iso9660 among others, you would better start with recompiling your kernel. :p
[General Questions and Answers] MysticElf:
Thx for the info!

Helps narrow down the options.

Time to see of anyone has recompiled ;)

I was wondering if there are any updates to this topic?

I would love to be able to somehow view the contents of several cdroms I have on my tablet running 3.2. These cds/dvds are interlinked files for example to do sample exams, the program can then check the answers. Another example is a dvd with multiple htmls interlinked with each other. I have tried converting all the files to a linkable pdf but about a third of the links still dont work and some files cannot be found or one has to scroll through the whole document. Any suggestions how I could get something like this into a format that would work on the transformer tablet?

Are there by now any apps which could read an iso file made of the cd/dvds?
[General Questions and Answers] sagumay:

[General Questions and Answers] Lunchbox115:
Why don't you convert the videos into *.avi-files for example before transfering them onto your phone? :)
[General Questions and Answers] Tubgirl:
I've got tons of DVD-ISO's on my home network (QNAP NAS) and it would be really cool to be able to stream those on my SGS2 but I guess that's a no go. Even my old 166Mhz PC could do it since decoding mpeg2-video doesn't need a lot of CPU power.
[General Questions and Answers] swebb76:
I have used DVD Copy Pro to turn DVDs or ISO files into video files. Also have the option to compress them, so not taking up 4gb of space. Can compress significantly and have played just fine on my android phone. I'm sure there are many other programs that will do the same thing.

I have setup two gmail account in accounts and sync...

but the problem is that whenever i share any file/photo from some other app via gmail, the gmail app uses the last set up gmail account to send the email.

the last set up account is not my default account..

the gmail app doesn't have a setting to set my default email and the email from which the file or photo has to be sent cannot be changed..

is there a way in which i can set up my main gmail as my default gmail????????

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsdavis6:
I know there are various other threads that are similar, but most people seem to find a solution. My phone reboots itself fairly regularly, if it can see out the hour theres a good chance it can see out a couple of days, but it rarely does see out the hour. It can restart at any point even just scrolling through settings, but if i try to play a fairly resource hungry game, football flick kicks, PES 2011 etc. it is pretty much guaranteed a crash. Sometimes It does not reboot, but simply cut out completely and not come back on until i have removed the battery for a few minutes. It will sometimes not become stable for more than a minute for hours. I have tried various custom roms, I have tried stock roms, I have reformatted my SD card, tried a new SD card, used no SD card at all, I have removed the Sony back up/Restore app. These are all of the fixes I have found suggested on here or other forums. I have come close to snapping this phone with frustration, can anybody, please, shed any light?

Hi..

I wanted to change the contact images in the framework-res. I've done so far, but when I folded the new framework-res with the mod-tool push, then that too, but he shows me the new image does not accumulate in handy.

I can do or what?

My steps:

1. I replace the corresponding image (PNG format) with 7zip

2. im sending the new framework-res or contact.apk via adb mask controller on my x10i

3. reboot

4. im showing in contacts and the image ist the same as before

looking like a rat i handle it?

Have you resigned the apk?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hoodsey:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] CMoney87:
Google it. But you will need the Android SDK or at least latest JDK and there is a script somewhere here on XDA called autosign or something like that. You will need to install those than remove the meta-inf from the modified apk put the apk file in the folder for autosign (make sure theres only one apk in the folder) then run autosign and it will create a new apk called your_signed_apk then rename it and push back to your phone.

Search "resigning apk files" and read. Theres an old thread somewhere for changing app icons i think that has everything you need to know.

System apps don't need to be signed. If you look in framework-res.apk, there's no META-INF directory.

As always, back up with xRecovery before messing around with framework-res.apk. One mistake and you won't be able to boot.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] CMoney87:
I think most stock apps actually might not need to be signed, now that i think about it though. You might just need to make sure you remove the unmodified app first (copy it somewhere first for a backup) and then manually put the apk in, set permissions correctly and then reboot. This apk signing trick allows you to modify any app to change shortcut icons or customize anything you want and reinstall it correctly so it should come in handy anyways.
