[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] herrfisk:
My versions is, Model u20i, Kernal 2.1.1.A.0.6.

I've been trying to get either the floyo or gingerbread rom working in the x10 mini pro threads.. and what i've done is this.. getting rooted and installed xrecovery. No a problem at all. Both works flawlessly with backup & restore of my original rom, but when installing the custom roms, in floyo it wont boot past the custom bootloader screen. And in gingerbread i don't have touch on the phone..

What am i missing ? People usually just have some problems with apps, not the actual bootup... ? According to the threads.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpeterson:
I'm wondering if this possible through a setting somewhere that I'm missing...

With my bluetooth device, the only thing I can do is chat on the phone. I'd love to be able to hear other things as well. Most notably, I would really, really love to be able to hear my Google NAV directions through bluetooth rather than the phone speaker. I can't figure out how to do that though. I'd also love to be able to listen to music through it.

Anybody know how to do this? Can it be done on the Epic?

Thanks for the assistance in advance.

Not all devices are capable of ad2p (Bluetooth media audio). If your device is, you can go into bluetooth settings, long press the device, hit "Options", then tick the checkbox for Media Audio.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpeterson:
So I'll need to look for a headset that is ad2p capabe. Thank you for that very good info. I'll start looking for that now. I assume that our Epic's are set up for a2dp just fine....right?? As long as I have the right headset, I should be able to take advantage of the option?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbadboy2007:
Is there a way to spoof a2dp to stream music? Like an app or bt module? I remember being able to listen to music on bt without this profile on dk28 or I'm crazy but I swear I did.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpeterson:
J,

I found an app called "Bluetooth Audio Widget" (Pub: KokasIT) on the market. It does the job. Try the free 5 day trial and see if that does the trick for you. Appears to work on some phones/setups, not on others. I'm not really having any issues with it other than I had to stop and restart the service a couple times because the connection was poor, so the volume was real low. Once I restarted the widget, it worked fine. Listened to directions on the GPS, and a good bit of music last night.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unseen wombat:
Yup, there's an app called BT super mono froyo. I had the free trial installed for a while. I'm not positive about nav directions, but I know you can listen to music through your BT with it.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labellee25:
I just made the move from the CyanogenMod 7 that was OK and had all the Gingerbread features included including integrated SIP support that work perfectly with my VOIP.MS account. After reading what people in the forums were saying about JVK I made a move over to a custom JVK rom and found it much more stable and complete vs CM7. I would like to know if it’s possible to add back the features that Samsung removed from gingerbread like the integrated SIP client?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfi2k5:
If you want to enable sip for jvk you can put the attached file in "system\etc\permissions\", then reboot phone and create accounts in settings/call settings.

Also, you can modify framework-res.apk to enable sip over 3g by editing "res\values\bools.xml" and setting "config_sip_wifi_only" to false. Good luck.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fomofo:
No such file here, not even a "values" folder in "res". Did a find and grep search, still nothing.

SIP working on wi-fi ok.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfi2k5:
You have to decompile framework-res.apk using apk manager, then you'll find the xml you need to modify.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fomofo:
Doesn't it need to be signed?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfi2k5:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfi2k5:
Yes, it should work. You should deodex your rom first, and modify framework-res.

Mhh, put in the missing xml file and voip is working on the SGS2.

My only problem is that callers are reporting very low speak volume from my side.

how to copy into system folder?

I have tried, using the "File Expert" App to copy the file into \system\etc\permissions. but the problem is, it does not arrive in the folder. i guess it's because of the only read permissions for "permissions" folder.

so what's the way to copy a file into this folder? the device is rooted. (but i'm new with root on android...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doll00:
I don't use "File explorer" but "Root explorer" and on the right upper corner there is a button where you can change to read only or write and read.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luxxxluxxx:
Ok, many thanks! Works for me.

But how can i do the second thing to make non wifi calls possible?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doll00:
When I'm connected to WiFi and try to make a call, my cell phone simply ask me if I want to make cell phone call or internet call.

As I can remember, to activate this function you have to go to settings/call setting/internet call setting (this is the last option on the bottom) and than in "Use Internet calling" change to "Ask for each call"

I believe you have to do exactly what is written above, but I tried to do it and It wasn't working over 3G
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luxxxluxxx:
Yes, calling using wifi works. But i also want to activate it in G3.

Sorry for asking so silly, but HOW can i do exactly what is written?

If i go to /system/framework/framework-res.apk in Root Explorer, and select it, i have only the chooice to "install" or "view" the package. No way to edit something inside the apk!

as an alternative attemp i have tried so simply copy an alternated version of framework-res.apk on it's place. but this ended still while copying in problematic messages and i needed to restore my phone from cwm backup... (the alternate version i took out of the first download link out of this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14584886&postcount=142)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doll00:
now I remembered it :), because I was doing exactly the same you done and I also had to restore my phone from backup as it didn't worked.

unfortunately, I never found the solution, but on the other hand I also don't need this function, so I wasn't trying very hard.

[General Questions and Answers] PaulB007:
I know this has been discussed to death in other threads but I think I may have a unique situation. I am using an Evo Shift with CM7 RC 4. I was using Mikshift which was a sense froyo rom. I could change the user agent in the advanced preferences by doing opera:config. I went to user prefs and to custom user agent and copied the Opera desktop UA code. This tricked all websites when I used a sense ROM. Now that I am using CM7 using this same method and none of the websites can be fooled, and default to mobile view no matter what UA string I put in.

Any ideas or do you think this is a CM7 issue?

That is the reason why i wrote "Root Explorer (dont vote just becouse of the root)" because you must use this app to edit your root there are no other apps that can do that!

But my question is which is the best File Manger. And i must say i have also Root explorer but i never set the permisions to write(delete) in the root files. and i recommend that to everyone if you delete something wrong you need to restore your whole system so you shold always have a back up before doing such a stupid thing ;)

Dual file manager

Dual file manager is the best for me, because is the most user friendly, especially for media. It has resizable thumbnails from 4 per row upto 2 large thimbnails per row, list view, search, favorites, the only thing missing is tree view. The best tree view i think is in X-PLore.

E-file manager is great for detail, but you have to swype to enter a file/folder, and that makes it slow.

If annyone can point me to a file explorer with tree view, resizable split screen, optional list view, details view with folder size and resizable thumbnails, FILTER on a specific folder(that's so hard to find, and so much use) i will defenatly vote for that.

Looks like the Honeycomb lockout is just the beginning... It's because so many people complained about Fragmentation.. :(

*le sigh*
[G Tablet General] captain_fid:
I thought this was to get 'early' access to code. If that's the case, then I heartily agree.

Besides, I personally think fragmentation is the single, worst aspect of Android on phones.
[G Tablet General] Tostino:
Yeah, as long as this is for the manufacturers that are getting early access before the source is released to the public, I think it will be a very good thing.
[G Tablet General] tcrews:
If this removes the ability of Motorola adding it's "moto-blur" on top of Android, Samsung from adding "Touch Wiz" and HTC from adding "Sense-UI".....I'm all for it!
[G Tablet General] akodoreign:
Maybe I am just a minority when I say I didn't mind fragmentation...

Kinda made each device unique...

I have an evo with sense on it. I have a gtab with launcher pro. and I have a xoom with (motoblur?, honeycomb default?) not sure lol :D.

But each one is very unique to me and feels like a different device. :p If everything was the same it would feel like that fruit labeled company :D

ah well, each their own :)
[G Tablet General] hungarianhc:
To me it's just annoying that their whole marketing game about it being an open dev process is just a crock. That being said, I'm glad we have earlier android source available, and I think it would be just dandy if somehow the devs here took that branch and advanced it further than google could do w/ honeycomb :D.
[G Tablet General] captain_fid:
I understand where you're coming from, I just think the manufacturers use their additional code as an excuse when users want to update/upgrade. Samsung seems to have taken a lot of flack recently for their delays.

Then we just have to get these OEM's stop bolting their ROM's / code down.

Personally, Viewsonic has built loyalty for me by not locking down their device and (seemingly) encouraging independent development. Combine with nice hardware, I would buy again paying even more if they would use a little better screen the next time around.
[G Tablet General] therealkired:
By far, the screen is this devices biggest failing. Drove me nuts to the point that I tried rooting a Nook Color. That's a nice screen. However, I took it back, the damn soft key thing was driving me ape....
[G Tablet General] tcrews:
Understandable....but you can make each device your own without the need of a vendor hacking their code into the android AOSP code. .

Different launchers are available, different home screen setup options are easy enough...

Without worrying about this device needing a moto-blur tested app or an HTC Sense tested app can increase updates and stability of apps. It also removes the apps that "only" work on moto-blur or sense-ui, etc... as that was what the platform the developer was working with and used some of those extra library functions, etc...

Vanilla AOSP is best. Make your hardware/price point stand out and people will flock to it. Let the people decide what they want their UI to look like (via launchers, widgets, and such).
[G Tablet General] captain_fid:
Agreed. For the price, though, (especially for all those wooter's out there) it is an amazing device.
[G Tablet General] Mantara:
Got sad at first as I hate to see any amount of extra control being grabbed by Google. After reading the article again and the comments I became a lot more ok with it. Some sort of quality control over what kind of overlay can be put over stock android sounds fair.
[G Tablet General] Tostino:
The good part is that it's not a limit for the everyday dev, and even for company's doing things with android that it wasn't intended for...

You could still see a toaster come out with Android 3.1 that is custom skinned... but only after the AOSP dropped would the development be able to begin. You wouldn't have that toaster getting preferential treatment by google and early access to the source.
[G Tablet General] edirector:
Try reading from more than just one source..http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/mar2011/tc20110324_269784.htm

Rubin says that if Google were to open-source the Honeycomb code now, as it has with other versions of Android at similar periods in their development, it couldn't prevent developers from putting the software on phones "and creating a really bad user experience. We have no idea if it will even work on phones."

"Android is an open-source project," he adds. "We have not changed our strategy."
