[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] distan7:
Hi all, I wrote a post at my local forum (see link below, translated using Google) that explained how to install Darktremor on Galaxy Mini GT-S5570. Yeah I know, Majedev made the script for Galaxy Ace, but it works flawlessly on my phone too. Maybe it can help for some of you guys.

Basically, for stock Froyo, installing Darktremor is a piece of cake. But no Darktremor support if you're using stock Gingerbread; you'll need a custom boot image with modified init.rc like the one posted above.

Here's the link to the post :

http://goo.gl/qMlPc

Now if you want to make your own custom boot image for stock Gingerbread, I'd recommend you use Dsixda Kitchen that you can find in xda-dev too.

I managed to built a custom boot image as a flashable zip that you can install in recovery mode

It has modified init.rc (a2sd as service and init.d support through busybox run-parts) pre-rooted, has busybox and Darktremor all in one zip file.

But remember : This is for Galaxy GT-S5570, not for Galaxy Ace. I'm providing the link for those of you who wishes to built his own boot image but need some guidance on init.rc modification or init.d scripts needed. All you have to do is extract the zip file then extract the boot.img using dsixda kitchen. Oh btw, you can also explore the updater-script included in the zip file.

Now here's the link to custom boot image Gingerbread 2.3.4 for GT-S5570 :

http://goo.gl/tvzuT

In case you'd like to know the modifications made, you can see this post here (translated using Google) :

http://goo.gl/g3TxX

Last word : don't install my custom boot image if you're not using Galaxy GT-S5570 running Gingerbread.

Hi

I already have rom S5830XXKPH installed...

I tried enabling a2sd but when I do a "df", I don't see the line with "/system/sd ..."

Idea ?

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] distan7:
@Guims23

AFAIK, there's no a2sd support on stock Gingerbread ROM. Try googling a custom boot image / custom ROM that support a2sd. Or you can make the modification yourself.

Really need your help. I have an Ideos s7 2.1 rooted and I tried to apply update.zip from SD Card.

I'm using Clockworkmod and already installed Clockworkmod recovery.

After setting the path to my update.zip and backed up my previous ROM, my phone rebooted. But nothing was shown after that. There's only "Huawei Ideos" logo and after that nothing happened

I've already taken out and put in the battery but it still doesn't work.

Help plsss......:(:(:(:(:(

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 021311:
I flashed my phone to CM6.1.1 with A2EXT from Gingerbread A2EXT

because CM6 has autofocus in video mode, ever since I flashed CM6

I knew that was a problem because sometime it just froze during boot up,

but once it's on, it worked flawlessly. Then today I turned off my N1,

and switch to a charged battery, it never came back on again,

I can't get into recovery mode, however I am able to access fastboot mode.

I have tried unplug sd card, sim card, flashing passimg.zip.

none of these work, I still got 8 days warranty, anyone thinks I should send it

to HTC or try other ways to fix it? The phone was rooted without unlocking bootloader.

Thank you in advance
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
You could send it to HTC or fix it yourself by unlocking the bootloader.

Unless there is also a physical problem like the power button I would not bother sending it in.

OK. Have to check with the wife to see if its still doing it on her.
[HTC Inspire 4G] doost650:
I have the same problem, last night it rebooted itself 5 times in an hour and a half! 4 outta the 5 it did it while it was just sitting there on my desk. I'm not rooted myself either.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
If you are within the 30 day return policy, then why not go exchange the phone?

Or, try what I mentioned above. Do a factory reset. Keep in mind, you will lose all your apps and data.

To do a factory reset, you need to go into Settings> SD and phone storage and select Factory Reset on the bottom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] doost650:
I'm not within my 30 days, I probably will end up doing the factory reset.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
If that doesn't work, then you can call at&t and do a warranty exchange. You have 1 yr warranty after the purchase date. This one year is if you bought it from at&t and not a second hand purchase.

[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
Let me tell you guys a touching story regarding the importance of skype releasing an android app for video skype.

I have many family members in my home country (pick a random country in Asia). As my elderly parents are getting older and older, it is getting increasingly difficult for them to travel. My aunts and uncles are all in their 70s and 80s.

Right before last New Year, I slept over at my "girlfriend's" place. She went on her laptop and skype videoed her father, who was taking a vacation in Russia. Not knowing what the hell skype was, I asked her and she showed me how it worked. Excited, I drove to the best buy as fast as I could and bought all the equipments I needed. After several successful tests at home, I went over to my parents's place and set up skype for them. I also bought a desktop computer to hook up to their 60-something inch plasma tv so they could skype using a bigass tv.

The hard part came when I had to instruct my 78 yr old uncle back in my home country how to install skype and set it up. 7 non-consecutive hours later, his image popped up on our screen. It was just in time for new year as well. So, during new year, all of us (my 4 siblings and 9 nephews and nieces) all gathered at my parents' place and had a skype video conference with our entire family on the other side of the planet.

My parents nowadays regularly skype with people over there. I've made it my mission to make sure each member of our family has a webcam and skype ready to go.

Amazing how skype has made a difference in our family.

Now that my parents have a droid tablet, they kinda want to be able to skype video while sitting comfortably watching tv. So, for now we're still waiting.

Why dont we switch to oovoo? Simple. I don't want to spend another 7 hours talking over the phone instructing my elderly uncle on how to install oovoo.
[G Tablet General] heinrich:
Goodintentions.... it's nice to hear from you :) .... yes i am constantly travelling between the US and Europe and Africa and i really need to have video skype for very similar reasons. The very reason i bought a tablet, was to travel!

BEST WISHES

I installed it on my Thunderbolt and it's everything we always hoped it would be. It's Skype with clear video.

Questions

Questions:

1)

Does these profiles/tasks work out of the box, or do I have to change them to make them work?

2)

"I am going to assume the phone starts in full battery saving mode and go

from there. "

Is this Auto-set by the profiles?

3)

"Import all the profiles (un-tick them) and tasks and with the relevant

profile and tasks open (it will make a whole lot more sense then),

follow the guide below."

I guess un-tick means deactivate. When should I tick (activate) them again?

4)

"It then sets a variable of %WIFIHOME to the value 2 only IF the name matches that of your home wireless SSID. You can set and add as many of these variables in as you like e.g. %WIFIWORK, %WIFIGIRLFRIENDHOUSE, %WIFIMASSAGEPARLOUR with the IF statement for their respective SSID’s"

Do I have to set SSID manually?

5)

You can set and add as many of these variables in as you like e.g. %WIFIWORK, %WIFIGIRLFRIENDHOUSE, %WIFIMASSAGEPARLOUR with the IF statement for their respective SSID’s.

Where/how can i set up those?

6)

"The logcat files are zipped up and stored in the /tasker folder on your sd card"

I can't find any LogCat file in my /Tasker folder...

7)

"Don't forget to set all of your applications and widgets etc that will be syncing to just below the AutoSync repeat time!"

So if the AutoSync repeat time is set to 30 min, the AppSync time should be <29 min...?

/Peter
[Android Software Development] brandall:
They work straight out of the box. You only need to enter your wifi SSID in place of the SKYXXXXX and adjust the sync times to suit you

No. If I had to consider all phone conditions from outset, such as wifi on, wifi off and data on, 3g off etc etc it would have been very complicated. It simply assumes all data connections are off and phone is set to 2g, which is the ideal battery saving state.

Once you have made all of the adjustments you see fit (sync time, SKYXXXXX and tested) you can activated them.

In the task WIFIOnConVar a variable is created of %WIFIHOME by matching the SSID with the IF statement.

You can create as many new variables here as you like, such as %WIFIWORK or %WIFICOLLEGE , just put the corresponding SSID in the IF statement. Tasker will look at the IF statement of each and when it finds a match, update the correct %WIFI'LOCATION' to a value of 2 - which means you are there! You can then reference this in other tasks you create - For example when %WIFIWORK = 2, set phone ringing volume to low. In other words, Tasker knows you are at work from the SSID and knows you want your phone to ring quietly when you are there. An exit task could be added so that when you leave, the phone volume increases again....

Get it?

As above, in the task WIFIOnConVar, same as action 3. Press +, select variable, select variable set, name it %WIFIWORK (for example), 'to' 2, tick 'IF' and enter %WIFIPREF matches your works SSID. ....

It won't be created in that location until the profile AutoSync has run.

Theoretically yes. My point was that your widgets, emails, etc etc should be waiting to sync when a data connection becomes active. If they are set to update every 1.5 hours but your AutoSync profile is set up for 1 hour, then they won't sync correctly every time!

Hope this answers all of your questions?
[Android Software Development] peswe:
Could you please tell me were to look (Which Profile/Task?)

Not really. In this and the next Question I need a full guideline.

If I add a Variable Set for let's say %WIFIWORK. Then I suppose it must have an corresponding Variable Set in the WIFI-OnCon<=Exit Task like %WIFIWORK To 1, and that affects the Goto Action 7 (in the first line).

A little step-by-step info about how to add multiple SSIDs would be nice.
[Android Software Development] brandall:
Yes, your understanding is correct! I know this can get a little confusing, but having these %WIFI'location' variables created can really come in handy in other profiles. In the next post I'll type a detailed explanation and update the FAQ so others can follow.

[Android Software Development] sacredsoul:
I have juicedefender ultimate and it does all this automatically. Still, kudos to you for the write-up.
[Android Software Development] Nacrul:
Just tested the profiles.

Seems to work so far, but got a question:

Do you need the WIFII1, WIFII2... variables later again? If not you can clean up the variables in the next version ;)

Combined with my homeprofile this setup may replace the my old one
[Android Software Development] crachel:
I just read through a bit and one thing I noticed:

This is one of my problems with Android, it can take up to 10 minutes before it realizes that you are out of range of your access point.

For instance, I'm at work with WiFi connected, I put phone in pocket and get in my car for the 10 minute ride home. Tasker is supposed to switch Bluetooth/GPS on for me when Wifi is disconnected. Well, my car's Bluetooth device won't pick the phone up sometimes until I'm pulling into my driveway, because Android is still thinking I'm connected to work Wifi and I'm 5 miles away! This happens on AOSP and OTA and on 2 separate phones, the EXACT behavior. The phone should more aggressively switch from WiFi to 3G.. meaning when I step outside from Work, and I am definitely out of range, it shouldn't require me to wake the phone up so it checks "oh yeah, no WiFi lets switch"

I can improve the behavior a bit by using "Wifi connected" profiles in conjunction with "Cell near" stuff , but that only marginally improves the time and eats more battery..

The bottom line here is Android's WiFi management has some problems and you're stuck with leaving it on all the time or manually managing it
[Android Software Development] brandall:
Thanks for the kudos!

Agreed on juicedefender - it's just something about Tasker that makes me want to use it instead of other applications by replicating what they do... It gets pretty addictive! My next tutorial is how to use it as a task manager and they are ten a penny on the market!

It's just the complete flexibility that Tasker provides, the things you'd love to tweak and adjust on other applications, with Tasker you can...
[Android Software Development] brandall:
I think you are talking about WIFII2 and WIFI21 in the task WIFIPREFCON?

They are splitting the information contained in the variable %WIFII, which unfortunately doesn't just show the SSID - we have to extract it by showing Tasker where to start reading and where to stop <-- the stop is set by WIFII2 and the output is sent to %WIFII21 = SSID

If you have a look at the text file on your storage card/wifi.txt you'll see what %WIFII originally contained and why it needs dissecting.

That process can be removed if you don't find the SSID useful - but if you read post 8 here, I hope you can see how they are very handy!

Let me know if I didn't answer the right question!
[Android Software Development] brandall:
I'm sure you are correct crachel, but I have to say this is not my experience... I don't know why that would be though?

I've tested the WIFI-AutoDiscon in different ways, in different places and each time (even with the phone sleeping and speech updating me of the state) it shuts wifi down in around 1 minute.

Have you looked in the preferences in Tasker and looked what your display on and off settings are? I'm sure you are aware they will eat your battery if reduced dramatically.

None of my profiles are location based and therefore do not rely on these settings. Try them! It should kill wifi in one minute (less if you reduce the wait time).... Whatever you set the interval to in AutoSync is the longest it will take Tasker to realise where you are, as long as you've added in the SSID as detailed here, you can kick off other profiles such as 'work' or 'home' using the created variable %WIFIPREF

The times you normally arrive at work or back home you could have Tasker syncing every 5 minutes to pick this up quicker and then 1 hour at other times...?

You may know all of the above (it's hard to know what level people are at with Tasker), but regardless I hope they help and please let me know your feedback or ideas!
