practically no developers on xda-developers

the question is why do you think there is a hidden partition

and I do hope you are not getting mixed up with French cache

we all know about cache
[G1 Android Development] kostnacsek:
And where could be whole stock firmware stored if it isn't in partition which is hidden for us? BTW it has to be in ready-to-use state, something like a BART backup, the partition must be big enough.

I think that if we knew about it, we were using it now, in example as extension of phone memory. Or as i said to recover bricked phones. It just happened that way. If you have other phone you could use instead, try to power off your G1 for same time.

You wanted tech specs - i dunno what exactly you want, it's just general G1, not ADP, stock version was 1.5. And even if i had last SPL, radio, AmonRa's recovery, after two months off, everything was stock, 1.5. I tried to start recovery - stock,.. i had to do whole rooting process again.

BTW - what's French cache?
[G1 Android Development] Effdee:

Good morning ;)

Have now since yesterday a lot of messing around with the widget loose, very good app.

My problem is that in spite of the other lock screen during an incoming call the old CM7 (CM 7.0.2.1) LockScreen shows where I can take off now and then. (wiping the one with the rotating circle, from left to right).

How and where can I replace it?

Have another dialer on it, the moment I touch the TouchPal dialer. Is actually quite nice and good.

Hi Installed Ubduntu in my USB drive and booted ubuntu from my USB drive.. After that i created couple of shortcuts in my desktop and installed Real player for playing music.. i shutdown the PC after finishing my work.

But when i booted next time from USB in desktop noting was there and i couldn't find the programs i installed (Realplayer,Vlc)

Anybody can tell me why it is happening?
[General Questions and Answers] dotnetbrett:
It sounds like you just installed the apps on the virtual drive and did not actually install it to the device
[General Questions and Answers] mejack03:
who can i change the installation location?

And wat about the files which i saved in my desktop?
[General Questions and Answers] DenzoNL:
What you have installed to your USB is the livecd, and not a persistent install. What you currently have now on your USB is the livecd, so you can try it out and install to your PC from the USB drive. There is a way to actually install it to your USB drive persistently. I would post the link here but I don't have enough posts yet, so you have to google ;)
[General Questions and Answers] Xadro:
I don't know with which method you created the ubuntu stick. But i recommend doing it with the wizard tool from ubuntu.com.

Universal USB Installer

Screenshot

There you can also add persistence, which is then saving the changes you are making to the live system. Anyhow, for a real productive system i can only suggest to do a full install, instead of running it all from stick.
[General Questions and Answers] mejack03:
@Xadro

Thanks for ur response

I installed ubuntu 10.10 in my USB.. and i used universal installer 1.8.3.3 to install ubuntu in my USB.. During the installation i didn't get any option to select the persistent which u showed in the screen short
[General Questions and Answers] Xadro:
I think your usb stick is too small try at least 2gb, the bigger the better.

Just been trying this myself with the newest version (1.8.4.5)

With my 1 gb stick i can't select persistance, with my 4 gb stick it gives me up to 2 gb persistence space.
[General Questions and Answers] redlantern:
I love ubuntu. However, I haven't installed it. Just usually boot it off of my usb. trying to find uses for it.
[General Questions and Answers] mejack03:
@Xadro

I tried with 4GB Perdrive and then i select 1GB persistence.. still whatever the program i installed will not be there once i reboot the PC.

[Galaxy S II General] WebghostDK:

[Galaxy S II General] kakwvu:
I can't believe that they didn't put a LED on this phone either. It makes no sense.
[Galaxy S II General] vimto25:

[Galaxy S II General] hakkinenvthh:
Because you can't take your eyes off your phone, so a LED is useless :D
[Galaxy S II General] =dave=:
noled looks very nice :)
[Galaxy S II General] madmack:
great to see NoLED working on the SII :)

I wonder how the new SAMOLED+ screen adjusts for battery savings with my app. I've seen through the videos that there are some screen brightness/color customizations that dynamically adjust to the image displayed on the screen.

I can't wait til I get my hands on this device.
[Galaxy S II General] peachpuff:
It does look nice, until you notice that it drains your battery and keeps the phone warm to the touch since the screen is on the whole time when a notification is on the screen.
[Galaxy S II General] =dave=:
but since it has an samoled screen, i dont think that the whole screen is on, or not?

i thought a main advantage of BLACK on samoled screens is that the black pixels are OFF and only others need to be maintained with power?
[Galaxy S II General] peachpuff:
Just use it and you'll see.

[Galaxy S II General] f1ux:
I wobder if the proximity sensor uses infrared and thats what the camera picked up?

Just like when you point a tv remote at a camera?

Yep, just checked with my camera, the blink is an infrared led, so invisible to the naked eye...

nice catch though!
[Galaxy S II General] BoogWeed:

[Galaxy S II General] bilboa1:
no theres not lol
[Galaxy S II General] walda:

i think noLED is a really good idea and fully configurable. i tested it a few days before and even with powersave settings it drained ~1%/5mins when notifying.

so i uninstalled it again.
[Galaxy S II General] hycian:
That's lame... What about the little light that blinks while phone is booting up? Are there mods that will make use of that?
[Galaxy S II General] pulser_g2:
It is infrared if you read the posts above.

Good luck seeing that. :p
[Galaxy S II General] bilboa1:
i'll prolly add a basic notification via the touch keys when i receive the device
[Galaxy S II General] Menthix:
Sounds great. Coming from a Milestone/Droid I've become fairly attached to a led. Played around with NoLed but it does drain a lot of battery.

I wonder about the logic of not adding a led, seems to me it would be one of the cheapest and tiniest components, yet so useful.
[Galaxy S II General] hycian:
+1

On the other hand, the trackball on Nexus One was the biggest invention for mobile phones!!! Not for its tracking/browsing purposes but for its use as an indicator light! It's sad the Nexus One will be the last Android phone to feature this invention. :D

Thanks for the heads up, I overlooked the replies above. LOL. An infra-red indicator would be cool. :D

[Galaxy S II General] Brut.all:
@turborider

Ok, I think I'll explain this further to you.

Windows stores much of its configuration in a system register. Most of other systems, including Android, store config in many configuration files. They're usually textual and human readable, so you could open and edit them using any text editor, even notepad. Usually every installed service/daemon has its own configuration file(s).

This approach has pros and cons over system register. Config files are less standardized: some of them are xml files, others are ini-like or even custom format. So it's quite messy comparing to system register. On the other hand developer could choose format which is most suitable for his needs and you don't need any special software to edit system configuration. Config files are also very simple from technical point of view and this is good.

Unix systems usually store their config files in /etc/ directory. On Android it's /system/etc/ - there you will find a lot of files and you could open any of them, look into, edit, etc. Of course it's not a good idea to do some random changes :-) I don't think you'll find complete guide to Android config files, because every device/ROM is different. Fortunately most of these files aren't specific to Android, but Linux/Unix or some service, so you should be able to find some help in Google.

Happy hacking :-)

P.S.

Yes, we have mobile phones in Poland ;-)

EDIT:

Advanced options for wifi are in /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini, but I'm not sure whether every device uses tiwlan driver. Of course these options aren't the same as in Windows configuration.
[Galaxy S II General] turborider:
ty mate :) sry for the last post :)
[Galaxy S II General] bilboa1:
android options are stored usually (and always for the system's settings) in sqlite3 format and the dbs are around in /data (look for settings.db)

you can edit them on the device via adb shell and sqlite commands, but i suppose there might be some gui for it as well

this is akin to registry on windows, just op just doesn't know the technical differences. no need to be aggressive pricks about it -
[Galaxy S II General] BIG_BADASS:
Only Windows Operating System has registries. Unix-based one's store configuration files in /etc directory, eliminating the need for a registry.
[Galaxy S II General] IronTechmonkey:
+1 to that. A clearly teachable moment wasted by some nasty responses.

[MENTION=2186996]turborider[/MENTION], as already mentioned, the build.prop file can be modified to make some tweaks (and some Android systems might also let you create a file called local.prop that can do some of the same things) but these are not nearly as far ranging as the windows registry. There are many forums and threads which describe the various tweaks and which can be found by searching for ["build.prop" tweaks]. Speaking of searching, for questions like this it is usually more productive to find existing threads covering the topic because such tutorials are likley to have higher traffic than a thread that asks a single question. One simple example of a build.prop tweak that I recently used was to change a value (switching between 1 and 0) which enabled/disabled a particular audio feature (audio offloading, to be precise) while testing a bug in Lineage OS, but there are more significant things that can be done by tweaking the build.prop. There are also other ways to tweak Android OS as suggested by [MENTION=2851630]bilboa1[/MENTION]. Search, and you'll find that stuff.
