When I first turned on my wifi xoom after opening the box today, the home page had a generic android where books should be when pressing it said app not installed I also noticed that youtube app isn't there either. Now I'm rooted. Could someone email me those apk files so I can install them manually

User42421@gmail.com
[Xoom Themes and Apps] edwards379:
ok got the system dump and tried copying apk files and no dice. not showing up in app drawer. Anyone e,se having these issues?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] tony710:
Mine did that until I set up WiFi and added my google account in settings. Then it grabbed the books app and the shortcut worked.

Make sure you are grabbing the .apk and the .odex file for youtube and put it in the /system/app folder. I accidentally deleted my youtube as well and when I put the two files in there is worked fine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootManOne:
Title says all, but to be more specific:

Till morning, nag screen from ATT appears reminding me to update, what I don't like to do. It has no option to stop and only possibility is to say later wich means it will appear after one hour. I was unable to uncheck automatic updates box in settings, as there is no in settings.

Dear Gurus, please help with issue, I hope it is not only me who doesn't want to update until new will be rooted.

Yes, and I'm not ATT customer, I have unlocked phone.

ATTENTION !

If you frozen "update" process, it has to be unfrozen even after hard reset. I spent lot of time to find why update procedure doesn't start until I checked "update" process which I froze before hard reset.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootManOne:
I found solution. I used Bloat Freeze to freeze process named "update" (do not freeze "upgrade" by mistake !!!)

With Titanium Backup Pro you can freeze the apps "Updater 2.2.1" and "Upgrade App 2.2.1". That worked for me

[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
There will be two different version of Galaxy S II, one with Tegra 2 and one with Samsung's own Exynos SoC. My question is, will there be two version of custom roms (Cyanogenmod) as the SoCs are different?
[Galaxy S II General] Zeron.Wong:
Only one version is required, as the instruction set are the same.
[Galaxy S II General] onbacardi:
i wonder if Cyanogenmod will be supporting sgs II?
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Depends if device is locked.
[Galaxy S II General] SiL3nTKiLL:
one 1 version si required as far as i know
[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
i dont get it, since both needs different drivers to operate the chips. And what do you mean by having same instruction sets?
[Galaxy S II General] apwhitelaw:
It better not be locked. I haven't really had a Samsung phone recently. Do they usually lock theirs?
[Galaxy S II General] brandenk0:
nope they don't locked their phones, Samsung usually leaves them open. Except for the Galaxy Tab but, that's a different story.
[Galaxy S II General] dhruvmalik:
Yet, with their product highlights of "Security", it could be questioned whether if they would have a locked bootloader.
[Galaxy S II General] MikeyMike01:
They're not related at all. At all.
[Galaxy S II General] teh_pwnage:
Drivers and instruction sets are different.... yes the drivers are needed for inter chip communication on the device, the instruction set are the coding instructions that are then through a compiler broken down into the machine code that the individual chip can interpret and such...

hope that helps
[Galaxy S II General] Dameon87:
The instruction sets will be mostly the same. However, Samsung optimizes their processors for better routines in certain operations. This, though, should not impact development too much, aside from the normal driver issues and GSM/CDMA differences.
[Galaxy S II General] RedBlueGreen:
It would be so much more easier if samsung just used one processor.

This is the first ever phone iv seen that uses two different processors/ screen types.

I know they did it cause they couldnt supply enough of the screen/ exynos processors... but still.. >.<
[Galaxy S II General] Hyperion82:
+1 :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] golf2vr6:
This is not the first time SGS1 had also diff models.
[Galaxy S II General] teh_pwnage:
to my knowledge the only difference possibly between models would be exynos or tegra 2... i didn't think there was a difference in screens? am I just daft/in a world of dreams? links?
[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
Yes, thats what I was worried about. The cyanogenmod will need more development time as there are two different version around for galaxy s2.
[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
:confused: ??? i thought it was just the SoC being different, and now they gonna be two different display screen as well? omg, the biggest attraction for Galaxy s II is the super amoled++. And what I see at the moment, asian region will get the Tegra2 and SLCD version if what you said comes true :(:(:(
[Galaxy S II General] golf2vr6:
i9100 = exynos + super amoled plus

i9103 = tegra2 + SLCD

SGS1 had i9000 and i9003:

http://www.phonegg.com/compare/27/Samsung-I9000-Galaxy-S-8GB-vs-Samsung-I9003-Galaxy-SL.html
[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
was shock seeing what you typed here initially, there are no sources saying Tegra2 version will get SLCD. Moreover,Galaxy SL is meant to replace Galaxy S, Galaxy S will be discontinued/cease production, where the SL version will become Samsung's mid range phone this year.
[Galaxy S II General] golf2vr6:
oh and i didn't mention the i9001 and i9010 another 2 sgs1 models.

Did you google on i9103???
[Galaxy S II General] mmm_ok:
I'm really excited about this phone too, but the one thing putting me off is whether this phone will get developer support.

Different hardware models is not always a problem... I have an HTC Desire and that has two screen types - HTC switched to SLCD a few months after the initial release because they couldn't source enough AMOLED. The Desire is the model of phone with most Cyanogenmod 7 installs.

I also have a Galaxy Tab and there isn't much choice out there for custom roms... and the community is split into CDMA/GSM halves. The newer ROM leaks also have locke bootloaders... This is making me nervous about the SII
[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
Yes, i9103 will be the tegra2 version.

correction, there are rumours stating i9103 having SLCD, but it will be the cheaper variant.

Anyway, i'll probably looking for htc sensation instead of worrying all the uncertainty for galaxy s ii.
[Galaxy S II General] golf2vr6:
Here in NL (europe) we get the i9100 so no problemo here. Where do you live?
[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
Singapore. As usual based on previous samsung handsets S8000, i9000, basically any XXX0 are for non-asian region, XXX3 are for Asian region.
[Galaxy S II General] golf2vr6:
I see your "problem" now.
[Galaxy S II General] edwin3210:
ya...:( Anyway, it isnt that much of a problem, just lowered the choices of phones for me, im still open for htc sensation ;)

why? x10 getting unlocked then x8 not getting it? does this give hope to us x8 users or not? I know developers here have skill and ability..
[XPERIA X8 General] Graveir:
x10 bootloader has already been bypassed, so they are unlocking something that has already been semi-unlocked - not such a huge grace as you would think ;)

As for X8 - it will get cracked, eventually, that's for sure. And then we can say good bye to SE updates once and for all ;)

Hello all. Im looking at getting into the development of android roms and kernels. What Im wondering is what would be the best phone to learn on.Im thinking that it would be a phone thats able to be unbricked because while Im testing work Im thinking that might happen at one point or another.Something I could find on craigslist for a decent price would be nice too.

So to sum it up what phone would best fit this criteria.

-Able to recover from a brick

-Can be found easily and for a decent price from CL or Ebay

-Not a pain in the ass to learn rom development on

Thanks in advance guys.

the G1 can be completely unbricked and has a huge dev community even though it is old.... but that means it is cheaper to.. and since you are using it to learn and not as a day to day phone it should be perfect. they are as cheap as 50 on craigslist. I would recommend that phone.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
I've been running Aurax TSense on my Desire since long now, it's v8.4 currently.

I've seen a number of new ROMs out there but am scared of testing them all because of the time needed to set it up for daily usage.

I've looked for a similar thread in the first two pages of this forum with no luck. That'd mean that any thread related to this very topic could be quite old.

Now, what I'm looking for?

0. decent battery life (1.5 days currently)

1. stability (of course)

2. the FM Radio and the 720p camera need to be fully working

3. the audio player needs to support both OGG and FLAC (I hate MP3s)

4. the alarm clock needs to support multiple alarms on a weekly basis.

I've been using Aurax because all of these features are in place there.

And I'd like to test something new for the sake of curiosity.

I'm not embracing any UI religion nor any other fancy thing: if it's compliant with the above list, it can be OK.

What'd be a good hint/choice, then?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aca85:
Well do what i did :) switched from Neo's AuraxTSense rom to his ReflexTSense :) it's a DHD rom ,works just as good as his Aurax ;)

As for other Sesnse rom's i dis-advise ,cuz they're old and not updated,and most DHD sense roms i've tested are laggy :( [except for Reflex]

I use oxygen rom and it's perfect for me. It has all the features you pointed out except flac playback (which I'm not sure of) but it can be done by installing 3rd party media player, tho. Bettery life is very long (longest of all roms I've been testing so far) and with normal use calling, texting, emailing, fb, internet, music etc. for me it lasts approx 35-40h. Of course can be even longer with some less "activity". And other thing is, oxygen is very up to date. :) You should try it for your Desire.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Giiar:
I use CM7.

Have tried most of the Desire ROMs available on XDA but at the end of the day, I always go back to Cyanogen. I feel (and please don't quote me on this, I'm only speaking for myself) that CM is one of the fastest and smoothest ROMS out there even though I only get around 1500 on quadrant. Also, battery life is pretty good as well;) I also like the range of customization available for this ROM.

BTW, this is my first ever post on XDA even though I've been coming here almost every day for the last 6 months.

I dont trust benchmarks anymore. I've seen some benchmarks giving better scores with certain roms even though the tests took longer to finish. I wont say names because thats just lame, but it seems wise to trust your feelings instead of your numbers.

First off I'd like to say I'm no noob when it comes to the linux kernel, though this is my first time on android. I have attempted to compile my own kernel (defaults for now) for my thunderbolt.

and the resulting image built is myBoot.img, renamed to boot.img and installed through fastboot, hboot, or clockwork. My only issue with this is that my system refuses to boot with the kernel and stays at the splash screen. Not the boot animation even. Please tell me if I missed a step (I manually ran all of that checking for errors, all appeared to go fine, though it still won't boot.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Returning to any known working kernel (anyone else's or stock) works fine. I con still boot clockwork and hboot with my kernel)

The offset is different for each device. I believe you are using the offset for the hero. The one that I gave you should be the one for the TB. That's the only obvious thing that I see, but I don't have a TB to test...

[EVO 4G General] kd0axs:
Actually, not all insurance policies have a deductible. You can get your car insurance with no deductible, but you pay a higher premium. Maybe they should do something similar with phone insurance. One price with the $100 deductible and another price with no deductible.

This thread is obsolete and the method is buggy. I've created a new post with a simple script that does the job. Please find it here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12827697

Hello,

In this guide I will show you how to enable Darktremor's a2sd (i.e. extending your internal memory using SD card, so you can install more applications easily). This method has been tested on a rooted Galaxy ACE running Android 2.2.1.

This guide assumes that your phone is rooted, and you have a basic knowledge in Linux.

REMEMBER: The steps below will not extend your phone's internal memory, you still have to install a2sd (link provided below) to complete the job.

Please feel free to comment and share your experience.

Note for the experts:

I think we can easily enable init.d scripts at boot using the /system/etc/install-recovery.sh. I didn't have the time to test this, but I think busybox run-parts is the way to start.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] cheehing:
wow...this is a very helpful thread !!!!!!

thanks n the step is very easy...

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] mynewuser:
Any performance issue after implement this?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
Nope, you don't have to. Just follow the steps exactly as stated above :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
4 days and no problems at all. Performance is great. I'm using a stock Nokia SD card (8 GB taken from Nokia 5800) - not sure which class it is, but I'm sure it's not super.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Lovetz:
Why you do not use Move2SD Enabler? I think it is more easily for every one.

What is the difference between your method and using Move2SD Enabler in practic?

One more easy way to free some space at main memory with out any scripts:

Link2sd
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
First of all, it's not my method. Credits go to Darktremor for his contribution. All I did was enabling it to work on Galaxy ACE.

Move2SD moves applications to the FAT partition, which does not play well with many apps. Moreover, if you plugged your device as mass storage, these applications will not be available until you release it. Ofcourse, dalvik-cache can't be moved. Please refer to the original post for more details:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=720739

This does the same job as a2sd, with the exception that you have to manually select apps to move to ext partition. This is not a disadvantage, but personally, I don't like it. Plus, it failed to move my dalvik-cache on SGA.

Just like you said, Move2SD and Link2SD are much easier and save you the hassle. A2SD in the other hand is more adventurous and sexy :D

Anyways, thank you for pointing this out, might help a couple of noobs finding easier alternatives.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] cheehing:
just follow all the steps u provided...no need to refer to Darktremor's thread right ??? the a2sd from Darktremor is for what?

but i cant find install-recovery.sh in /system/etc

sorry for many noob Q
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
Actually you do have to follow Darktremor's guide to complete the process.

Regarding the install-recovery.sh, it doesn't have to be there. The 7th step above will create it if it doesn't exist (and back it up if it already exists).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] cheehing:
the a2sd from Darktremor is for what? need to download in install b4 starting the mount steps?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] majedev:
The steps I provided are only to mount the ext2 partition at device boot time, so applying them will not extend your phone internal memory by any means.

Darktremor's A2SD does the magic by moving your installed applications to ext2 partition, so you have to install it after following my guide.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] cheehing:
thanks....only install it after ur steps right ??

meaning after download the Darktremor's A2SD and save it at the SD card, boot into recovery mode and select "apply sdcard:update.zip" from the menu right?

Do u did any backup ?

urs also original samsung recovery rom ?

mine is root by using the SuperOneClick....is that possible to do all this ??
