[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StyleUkno:
Hey guys,

Im about to update my phone OTA and i will like to re-root. When reading the steps to root again it says that it will delete the entire internal SD card. How do you back this up? Is the only way to back it up with Titanum and clicking everything installed and then backing it up that way or is there another way of backing it up? is it in the works to retain root how we did with the 4.1.5.7 update?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
You can already retain root using the previous GladRoot method! :) I guess the op just hasn't updated it yet to say so, he did however confirm on that post that it works to retain root on the 4.1.83 update. I can confirm it works as well. I had no mods so I accepted the update, ran "afterupdate" from GladRoot & drank a beer. :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StyleUkno:
previous gladroot method? whats that? is it the same thing as when updating to 4.1.5.7?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
Yes, absolutely! Do it the exact same way.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StyleUkno:
i dont remember how i did it lol...i just remember clicking beforeupdate.bat then installing 5.7 then afterupdate.bat. Im still running a stock rom in it, so i should just install the update and click afterupdate.bat or do the before update then the after update?

EDIT:

Never mind i figured it out...all i did was update the phone then click afterupdate.bat and that was it. Thanks

when I use app "Barnacle wifi tether" & "wireless tether for root",

The message "sd card safe to remove" appears and my X10 reboots without fail.:(

please teach the method of evading this.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dusza Spc:
This reset is not problem with your app but problem with superuser, i have in this rom the same problem with app that need su access, when it want su access in statusbar show sd card safe to remove and phone restart, try reinstal su aplication and this two app
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LSAMUELCF:
I have another question.... Is there any other way to install Free X10 Beta4 without using Xrecovery??

Xrecovery is not working for me, Ive tried every possible solution (even flashed the cellphone) and "Reinstalled" Xre, and the cellphone would just boot normally after pressing Back repeatly when SE logo appears.

I would sincerely appreciate your help!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkymgr:
Thank you for your answer.

I tried to uninstall Superuser.apk with next:

rm /system/app/Superuser.apk

pm uninstall com.noshufou.android.su

and to install Superuser.apk in Market.

so Barnacle is working ! :)

But when stop this app, the message "sd card safe to remove" appears and my X10 reboots without fail. :(

Is there a problem in the wifi access app?

another su access app(app is no wifi access) is no problem.:confused:

[General Questions and Answers] LordManhattan:
Which ROM do you use?
[Desire HD General] pig667:
Hey guys,

I have a problem: when I press on the clock widget on my homescreen it opens the world clock instead of the clock/weather. I never had this problem before and I'm not sure if it's rom related or if it's just a setting somewhere. I'm currently on arhd 5.1.3.

Thanks in advance!
[Desire HD General] a.wehrle:
Are you sure you don't have a littel bit big fingers? :D If you tap a little bit lower on the weather forcast the weather app should open.
[Desire HD General] pig667:
I'm well aware of that, but I don't want to open the weather app, I want to open the clock app. Until now tapping on the clock opened the clock app, but now it opens the world clock tab. I haven't found a way around this on my own so that's why I'm asking for your help.
[Desire HD General] Bodyworks:
Same at my DHD. When tapping on clock, World Clock opens. Next step is to tap on Clock at bottom of opened widget. As i remember, this was always like this. I can't remember that the clock widget opened directly.
[Desire HD General] pig667:
Yes, you have described exactly my problem. It wasn't always like this. With my dhd the clock app opened directly until now.

Hello

I have a problem. I try to install Android (SD or NAND - I think over 20 versions), and I succeed, but I have few problems. The main problems are the G-Sensor ( I can live without this) and the proximity sensor (this is a pain in the %$#). If I try to keep the phone with my shoulder, i activate speaker or something else...

Doesn't matter which kind of installing I do (SD or NAND), this are permanent issues. The worst thing is that in windows all of them are working. I tried to install few programs from the Market, but nothing worked. And Teeter tell me that I don't have a G-sensor ... :confused:

It's a problem with the hardware drivers, or is about something else ?

Thank you ...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] epapas:
Hi,

There are some problems related to the hardware like the slow resume from suspend or the slow proximity sensor response when in phone call.

Which build have you tried. Rafdroid's and imilka's are most stable for me and there are no problems with the g-sensor. Don't get carried away from ambitious state of the art ROMs. Just use a stable one.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ctzctz:
hello ..

thank you for answer ... I tried rafdroid, and I had few issues. the main one is that the "alert light" remain started ...

I'll try also imilka's, and I'll come back with an answer ..

Thanks for support ...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ctzctz:
Hello ...

I tried I think 20 versions of Android, NAND or SD, but no one worked ...

I have another question. My phone is HTC HD2 T8585 (in setting / phone identity). I assumed that is EU version (512 Mb), but one friend told me that is possible to be T-mobile version (512 Mb, not 1024). It's true ? This can be my problem ?

Phone was bought from Vodafone shop, so is not a fake HTC or a clone ... Everything work perfect in WM 6.1, but I hate the keyboard, and that's way I want a Android ..

Can somebody give me a clue ?

Thank you ...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zach.antre:
T8585 are EU Version and even if it was T-Mo your problem is not related to that.

I can't think of a reason why g-sensor and proximity are not working.

You have newest Radio?

Partition layouts are correct for each ROM you are using?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] n_youn:
differences of the EU and TMOUS ver

the TMOUS had colored send and end keys green and red the eu verison does not and i suggest u flash the newest radio also
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ctzctz:
Hi

Buttons are not colored ... So I think is eu version ... But accelerometer and proximity sensor don't work in Android. Windows is ok ...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ctzctz:
Hi

Partitions are OK. Everything is working, except proximity and G-sensor ... About the radio, I tried few of the latest radios, and result is the same....

I am using Gingerbread and the wallpaper background started to look different with a small border and two round circles on the bottem of the screen. All apps are running/looking normal. Perhaps this is a setting issue? How do I change the wallpaper settings?
[Desire Android Development] hallydamaster:
OK, as some of you may know, SNQ has developed a TB Wake for GB Sense ROMs.

I have taken the liberty to port the hack to be compatible with AOSP ROMs, so really the credits goes to SNQ.

I have tested the mod to work with Oxygen, but might as well work with other AOSP ROMs.

I know SNQ made some changes to the kernel, but I tested this with the standard kernel that comes with Oxygen 2.1.1, and it seems to be working good. :D

It works like in the good old days with Froyo where you had to edit the "curcial-oj.kl"

EDIT: Confirmed working on Devnull 1.02 as well
[Desire Android Development] oudbrood:
First, Thanks for your work!!!

I'm on oxygen 2.1.1. and flashed the zip with CWM (recovery), but the trackball don't wake up my phone.

Did I something wrong?
[Desire Android Development] Mystenes:
You make my day better :)

Now it's time to move to Oxygen for good.
[Desire Android Development] Xinot:
+1 here. Fresh Oxygen 2.1.1 with no mods, and default kernel. No go.
[Desire Android Development] tanjinjack:
Says "Installation aborted" in CWM 3.0.2.8.
[Desire Android Development] hallydamaster:
Weird! Just tested it 20 minutes ago... I will look into it straight away! :confused: Else replace the 2 files in a fresh Oxygen ROM and flash it again (sign. verif. off)
[Desire Android Development] hallydamaster:
Sorry guys redid the update.zip, and I think it should be working now! ;)
[Desire Android Development] oudbrood:
Going to try it right now
[Desire Android Development] oudbrood:
YEAHHHHHHHH!!!!! It works......Your the best.
[Desire Android Development] Xinot:
New one works fine. Thank You, and ty SNQ. ;)
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Nice. :)

Too bad it can't be flashed if you have clockworkmod...
[Desire Android Development] oudbrood:
I have CWM, but only the older 2.5 version
[Desire Android Development] hallydamaster:
Sorry about that. I have no idea how to make the UpdateR scripts the newer CWM versions uses. However you could just fake flash the older version of CWM ;)
[Desire Android Development] vnvman:
Yeah lol, i totally forgot about that, i'm such a dumbass ;)
[Desire Android Development] infazz:
will this work on non oxygen rom? :)
[Desire Android Development] TeamPCB:
Also works with DevNull 1.0.2. ;)
[Desire Android Development] julien.me:
Confirmed working perfectly on Oxygen 2.1

Thanks heaps !
[Desire Android Development] gippy2:
Does this take the place of the power button to wake phone, or is this as well as the power button ?
[Desire Android Development] paweh:
works fine. Thank You :)
[Desire Android Development] TeamPCB:
In addition to the power button. I have deactivated the wake on power button, because I don't like it :)
[Desire Android Development] hallydamaster:
You can remove the power button entry in /system/usr/keylayout/bravo-keypad.kl.

You need to be S-OFF or push it via ADB to get it working though!

Hi hallydamaster, thanks for sharing this.

I've been working on getting the media controls to work when the screen is off using the hardware buttons. I previously couldn't get the track-pad to work though.

Do you know the exact changes that were made to libui.so to get this to work, to save me trawling through it...? If you do, would appreciate your input over in this thread to help me out!

Thanks again.
[Desire Android Development] ukanth:
Just to let others know, It will not work with MIUI Rom's

[Desire Android Development] niels_kievits:
Does this really unlock too? This does not work for me at the moment!?
[Desire Android Development] ukanth:
Sorry for that, I'm not sure about it. I guess its only wake screen
[Desire Android Development] remizik:
nice "hack" ! :)

would be 200% perfect if there was a version with a second press to unlock :o :D

but anyway, thanks for your work :)
[Desire Android Development] trinity1:
flashed with CWM 3x over Oxygen 2.1.1

Works fine

thks
[Desire Android Development] obdrz:
Good work,

Wold be perfect if it wake and UNLOCK

Any chance to look into that?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] hallydamaster:
The changes made to libui.so is altering a single byte. This is making the device react on keypresses even though the screen is off. I am pretty sure the alteration is preventing a piece of the code in running. This is a very simple hack an no other editing is done.

Making the device react and using the hardware keys for media interractions is a lot more difficult, and you might need the source for that. The TB Wake hack is using Android functions already built in.
[Desire Android Development] brandall:
Thanks for your reply, I'll seek out the change.

I've already sorted the media controls :cool: just needed the TB to complete it!
[Desire Android Development] snq-:
don't simply judge by the amount of modified bytes ;)

saying "I am pretty sure the alteration is preventing a piece of the code in running" shows that it might not be that simple after all :) -

it does not prevent anything from running, that byte is actually an immediate operand of a substract operation (as objdump shows)

it's not about changing a byte, but tracing back the issue (also involves looking into dalvik fx code), analyzing compiled c++ code higly optimized to size (compare that KeyboardInputMapper::isKeyboardOrGamepadKey() compiled into thumb-2 instructions), and trying to find a workaround while having very limited options in editing the binary blob (eg. you can't easily _add_ code)

otoh this was the easier part for us (gb+sense on bravo folks), as with our closed source kernel (oh the irony) trackpad stopped working after a while (with screen off)
[Desire Android Development] hallydamaster:
Definitely not trying to sound smart in yours eyes snq! ;)

Back in the days where i had the time, I did a lot of hacking/cracking applications and games using W32DASM and SoftIce! The usual way to do it was by terminating a call function, or changing a condition for a JMP instruction! I should maybe get back into the trade! ;)
[Desire Android Development] julien.me:
Hi all,

It doesn't seem to work properly under Oxygen 2.1.2, any idea?

The trackball is waking the phone, howevever the power button still wakes the phone.

Great hack though and I miss it !
[Desire Android Development] julien.me:
mhhh actually I solved this issue by applying my old FroYo script that used to enable trackball wake and disable power button, since the script didn't enable trackball under GB, I applied it (trackpad_wake_KeysDisabled) then straight after applied the tbwakeaosp_signedv0.2

this will disable the power button, and enable trackball!

Thanks guys :)
[Desire Android Development] ZaneChua:

Here is a version that should be signed... I took the new script/contents from Akarim47's package and put them inside the original signed zip. Credit to hallydamaster and Akarim47 still, but should result in a signed edify compatible zip.

Have just tested after a nandroid and all seems well though the usual *use at your own risk* applies :)

Moboplayer? I use that for all my movies in random formats. Haven't tried HD movies yet however. Nexus S screen resolution isn't HD anyways.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demo23019:
You wont be able to record at 720p it lacks the hardware

As for movies ever since 2.3.3 nexus s has been able to play 720p (x264) movies but still lack proper audio codecs so no sound hopefully more audio codecs get introduced in 2.4 update when ever that comes out but dont hold your breath

If you check in dev section there is a ROM in that includes new hardware codecs but the video player that is required is not 100%

exactly you haven't played high quality HD movies on your phone experience what we are talking about

also im pretty sure he is talking about hardware support Mobo or any other player does software only for the codecs that are not supported by the OS

And ask anyone who had or has a galaxy S image quality is outstanding

Also doesn't matter if the phone is not 720p you dont having to spend time properly converting
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docster121:
This is a big let down for me, its true a few media players can play via software decoding but the nexus s out the box has limited media support.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Si_NZ:
You can try the hardware multi-codec thread in the dev section. You need to flash the customized ROM though, and install ho player from Market.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DKYang:
I just recommend that you go back to your Captivate. I've had the Vibrant and sometimes I miss that my Nexus S doesn't have the hardware support to play other media files without converting, but I don't use it for media much so it wasn't a priority in the phone for me. Reading from your first post, it sounds like you use the phone a lot for watching media and somewhat use HD video recording. So that's why I recommend that you stay with the Captivate and perhaps wait for Galaxy S II if you're looking for an upgrade. Nothing can really beat the media capabilities that the Galaxy S offers.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TWiTCommander:
What codec are you trying to play? I have HD videos on my Mac downloaded directly from YouTube. With no transcoding, they work fine on my Nexus S in the Gallery app using stock firmware.

H.264 has many different encoding profiles, and mobile devices (even the iPhone and iPad, along with scores of Android and Nokia devices) have limits on both the profile and the bit-rate that they can handle.

With regards to recording, the Nexus S does not do HD recording, and that's fine with me. If I want to record some video (which I do like 4-5 times a year), I'll whip out my Flip. You know why? Because recording video drains a lot of battery, and I need my Nexus S to last all day.
