[Nook Color General] sgt.pepper99:
Hey all, just wanted to report that it is possible to enable the nook to connect to ad hoc wireless networks using adbWireless.

HOWTO enable ADHOC tethering:

1. Download and unzip the wpa Supplicant fix file below, this should give you a wpa_supplicant-adhocfix file

2. Make a backup of your current wpa_supplicant:

adb pull /system/bin/wpa_supplicant wpa_supplicant.backup

3. Remount the /system partition RW:

adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system

4. Push the new wpa_supplicant:

adb push wpa_supplicant.adhocfix /system/bin/wpa_supplicant

5. Fix permissions:

adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/wpa_supplicant

6. Reboot and enjoy!

Slightly modified the steps found here.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hafded7:
Now i know theres hundreds of threads about 3G problems and im hoping this one doesnt get over looked . I recently in stalled two custom roms on my evo ( cyanogen 7.0.0 , and miui 1.1.25 ) wiped chaches factory resets etc. on first installations but for some reason my 3G is not being recognized or even showing up when i am using the custom roms. The only way i can use 3G is when i restore my phone back to my stock rom..... can anyone help me fixing the issue ....please. if i can get my 3G up and working while im running my custom roms it will make everything so much easier, instead of having to restore my stock rom when ever i want to do anything on my phone outside a wireless network

oh and kernals etc. are stocks that came with the roms.no customization has been done to the roms themselves.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cuballevo:
has nothing to do with the kernels

you have to get msl reader and set your 3g up i think there is a thread in the developer section on it...let me see if i can find it

OK HERE IS THE FIX,

PHONE MUST BE ROOTED

PHONE MUST HAVE SENSE ROM ON IT TO FIX THE PROBLEM

download msl reader from market,

open msl reader,

write down msl code

open dialer

dial ##3282#

when asked for code or password enter the msl code you wrote down

select edit mode

select EVDO

select preferred mode,

set to automatic.

save exit reboot,

load rom of choice

and VIOLA YOU HAVE 3G

CHEERS AND GOOD LUCK
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well for CM7, are you sure you data is enabled? Sometimes tis off when you boot the rom. You can check in mobile data under wifi settings.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cuballevo:
while that is true roxxors, since the OP stated two different roms giving him trouble and not having trouble with original load, the problem lies in how the roms read 3g...we all know that sprint roms LIE about 3g...and cyanogen actually reads actual signal...however until that EVDO change is done his phone will never get 3g on any of the cyanogen or miui or even aosp roms....
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] holmesdx:
I have somehow 'lost' VR and now can't access Open Recovery.

Am using Cyan 6 and runs fine.

Is there any way to simply regain VR and not have to reflash sbf, Rom, etc. and everything that entails?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
Just flash the VR and you will be good to go.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] holmesdx:
Thanks man. Now good to go!
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
Yeah I know but for me it's very important to hear the ringtones wherever I am!

Mobile Review said the SGS2 has the same speaker level as SGS1 so I wonder if someone here can tell if the SE Arc is louder than Galaxy S1?

I am nearly convinced to get the Arc instead of SGS2 but this one is getting closer and closer even the price is much lower than forecasted so I need at least a good + for the Arc over the SGS2 :D
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
I don't have access to an SGS, but can confirm that the Arc is very loud, compares well to any other phone I've owned before.

Sent from The Arc!
[Xperia Arc General] WhiteHartMart:
Just sold my SGS and got the Arc - imo its just as loud as the SGS. Speaker quality pretty good really considering how slim it is :)
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
I never understand how they test the speakers at Gsm Arena!

Tips for taking better photos

These are a few tips that is quite helpful for you guys to take good photos on your Wildfire.

1. Camera Advance Lite / Camera Advance

-There are a few settings that is quite useful and can apply it really quick.

-Useful settings, E.g: Burst setting, grid, EV, Panorama, reduced noise, OSD ......

-You can apply these setting really quick when you are in a hurry to take a good photos

2. Try not to use Zoom

-Zoom in mobile phones are fake! There are zoom, but not optical zoom and it is just digital zoom.

-If you want to enlarge focus of the photo, just go to gallery and enlarge it.

3. Take several photos instead of one

-Take a few photos and pick the best one to store it.

-Try to take from different angle and choose the best one.

4. Hold your camera steadily

5. Not to use flash

-Try to use EV/ISO to enhance the brightness of photo instead of using flashlight.

Hope these tips is helpful for you guys.

Give me a "Thanks" if this is useful =]

This one :-)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
THAnks for informing me.I was rushing to do this thread before I went out..
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Formiak:
Unfortunetally next bug has appeard , check that out there are two http:// and some other not neccesary marks
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
Thank you once again! but there isnt two http... i dunno what gone wrong.. i just deleted it and relink.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] nhnt11:
Do we really need this? JPEG is designed to compress files with least possible visible quality impact.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Formiak:
If you zoom you will see more readable e.g. text
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] nhnt11:
I've never had ANY readability issues with the compression on. I take photos of school timetables and exam schedules all the time.

Edit: Just my opinion - i normally have over 150mb of camera pics already, without compression it would be 250mb-ish.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
watch the corner... without new profile, the four corner is bit blur.. with new profile.. it is better...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] nhnt11:
yeah its better, but unnoticeable unless you either zoom in or have a screen with such a low resolution that I would wonder why you're even viewing pictures on it.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
normally i snap in phone.. view and upload in computer lol... can u help me fix the video format?? I think if you have low compression, you will have sux high quality video.. cause wildfire has low processing processor...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] nhnt11:
your computer has a high resolution screen. I was talking about a hypothetical low-res screen, which you obviously dont have - which means that you dont need such high quality casual photographs. I'd rather have the 250% reduction in file size any day.

And I don't think you can fix the video quality easily. It depends on codecs which are built into the phone which I have no idea how to import from a HTC ROM.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
i change the value of cm7 wildfire to the new profile... the image size reduct to 1mb, but the video size high and low resolution is working fine...

Better camera mod for CM7 RC3\RC4.

Is this only for that version of CM7 or it's generally for all CM7 version? I'm currently running on RC2.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
You may try it if you want, I'm in nightly...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] auleu:
does this work for stable ?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] alangrig:
Video quality on CM7 stable is the same as on HTC stock,but sound on HTC stock is awful, so CM7 change audio capture format and sampling rate up to 32 kHz, thus making more clear and pleasant. In order to increase video quality, it is required to increase video bitrate, which I think is possible by modifying .XML file and libs, correct me if i am wrong in terms of programming, however you can't increase video pixels size, just for example from 240p to 480p, due to it won't be playable on HTC wildfire, if video pixels is higher than your actual screen.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
I tried changing the number back to 240. But camera picture quality is decreased.

It should work on stable.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] sashirey:
Are there any problems with video recording? Is it stable?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
Tried to fix, but same problem... failed... if video quality increased, picture quality increased. If picture quality decreased, video quality decreased.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] NiamhWins:
Any progress?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
Nope, sorry.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
keep on the good work dude the wildfire really needs a better camcorder(video and audio)

well theoretically it should be better than stock 2.2.1(wildfire) ......but still some grains are coming ...working on it......as soon as am done i will launch a patch for cm 7.03 and 7.1 ......
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
any progress?and also is it possible somehow to theme the camera like the MiuiCamera. thx
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Serenadier:
Doesn't work with ClockWorkMod 4.0.0.3 & CM7. Something about amend scripting being deprecated in Android 1.5...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] 3xeno:
Clockworkmod 2.x only. Install Clockworkmod through ROM Manager App, Reboot into Recovery again using ROM Manager app, then flash as normal. (ROM Manager installs Clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 by default, and, this is on your SD Card, meaning over and above your default 4.0.0.3 installation)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Serenadier:
Thanks, got it. (:
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] louiscypherbr:
Use ROM Manager to install the zip file, like a new ROM. It should install, perhaps I dont know if it will work or not. Make a nandroid backup before, just in case...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
the rom manager install works i have flashd it couple a nights ago
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] auleu:
can you update this mod for cm7 rc1 and other roms ?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
@melvinchng can u please import this settings

<EncoderProfile quality="normal" fileFormat="mp4" duration="60">

<Video codec="h264"

bitRate="256000"

width="352"

height="288"

frameRate="20" />

<Audio codec="aac"

bitRate="96000"

sampleRate="16000"

channels="1" />

i have tried to edit the low profile with this settings but with no success.tnx

edit:success :D now ill try to make it better ;]

edit 2:so i played with the settings for a good couple of hours and came to the conclusion that the wildfire is just not that powerful to record at higher video bitrate,the resolution is irrelevant imo
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] tobitronics:
Hi folks,

I've flashed this mod because it didn't bother mme that I would not be able to capture a video. However, I changed my mind. Is there any way to delete this mod?

Thanks in advance.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
unzip the rom u are using (or just navigate in 7z,winrar.. window) and locate /system/etc/media_profiles.xml

then replace it using root explorer,adb,qtab....,reboot the phone.and dont forget to change permissions to rw for user r for the others
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] cwk_and:
can you please teach us how to edit the video format?:p
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] tobitronics:
Thanks, that worked for me.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
u open the file and edit the values for example:

<Video codec="m4v"

bitRate="6000000" <<< or bitrate

width="480" <<put ur desired res here

height="320"

frameRate="15" />

the u go dawn here:

<VideoEncoderCap name="h264" enabled="true"

minBitRate="64000" maxBitRate="3000000" << here were is min and max

minFrameWidth="176" maxFrameWidth="640" << and put them here

minFrameHeight="144" maxFrameHeight="480"

minFrameRate="27" maxFrameRate="27" />
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
on the pc using notepad its way easier then u copy it back to the phone change the permissions to rw r r reboot the phone

and btw dont edit the profile names: hd ,high and low cos the phone will bootloop
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] cwk_and:
lolx,my wildfire get bootloop because edited the profile names,

reflash-ing....

If you dont mind,can you upload your stabil file??
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
cm7Nightly134 media_profiles i dont use this mod this is the original camera profiles from cm7
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
you dont have to reflash. Just stack your current cm7 nightly and it will work again.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Marurban:
Flashed 3 times and still doesn't work. File is original.

EDIT

Replaced via root explorer and it works now. Good job. Waiting for 480p
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Joel5121:
It works!

I've tried it. It really works. 480x320 video but not 30fps. Only 15fps. Would be really cool if it has widescreen 428x240 or 640x360
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] cwk_and:
should also credites to darkstep for the general info of editing,

btw,the high profile record 480x320 @ mp4 format ,

and the low profile record original video.

Those user can compair both video recording perference,

And the Screen shot is not only 16second,

it resume at 16th second lol

_____________________________________________

If someone expert in editing script:

Here are the result what I observed,

h263 can record video smoothly up to HVGA,

higher resolution will not be saved,

However,h264 could record VGA video but it taking video at 1fps,

320x240 are also lagging when recording

I hope someone could make h264 smooth in video recording
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] melvinchng:
Sorry, I'll reconfirm the fps, because I didn't flash it in my wildfire.

As I have been told that it is 30fps.

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] lupoalberto12:
Hi.

I'm wondering: is it possible to improve the resolution at 480p (640×480)?

The sensor of the camera should support this resolution.

Thanks.

Bye!

! :) !
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] darkstep:
this is not possible cos 480p needs the h264 codec which lag on the wildfire duo to no gpu
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] lupoalberto12:

I was just "flashing" the script with the xml file changed ("width" and "height").

Hi, I know the post says, mod for CM7, but just being curious.

I have a Wildfire and I am running the SplashICS ROM, which is basically a CM9 mod (ICS).

The camera doesn't work in this ROM, but I really like it (the ROM).

Will i be able to update this MOD into this ROM so that the camera works.

I mean are CyanogenMods backward compatible? In which case it should actually work rite?

Has anyone ever tried this?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] aravind326:
Well...

I tried and it didn't work. :(

Thanks anyway. I'll try this when I go back to CM7 :)

It definitely is antenna. Not sure which one...

From IFixit:

Standing out on the board:

Several rows of pressure contacts connecting the antennas to the logic board.

The vibrator motor for...well...vibrating.

8 Megapixel camera sensor.

Battery connector.

The other side of the board is about as featureless as it can be.

Speaker works fine just missing one of those contacts but don't know what its for
