[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Abra_Cadabra:
Working very well - no FCs but have one relatively minor issue. The sync icon on the notification bar is permanently now (the two arrows in a circle). It used to show up only when the phone was syncing google before.

Does not have any impact on battery life or performance of sync so I'm not overly bothered. Can put up with it until Samsung release an update that includes voice/video gtalk.

Thanks.

I see the video icons, but when I test chat my comp, my comp says I ended before I even get a chance to see them, it happens as soon as I press accept on the comp
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ma10:
does video chat work comp to comp? (ie not using your sgs2)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] vinokirk:
I've followed the instructions but I've now restarted my phone and my Talk icon has disappeared. Any Ideas?

I'm no expert, but why do we set the permissions of the new talk.apk to ---------? Should'nt at least some of them be ticked?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] :
Can one of you guys upload the original talk.apk as i have accidently deleted mine;) Thanks,

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dannyboyni:
I have given up on this now, its just far too buggy, nothing works right. I am just going to wait until the official update when its included.

Hi Guys,

Just uploading backups of the original three files just incase anyone needs them in the result of an error or mishap;)

THESE FILES WILL TAKE YOU BACK TO THE STOCK SETUP;)

had to upload the .so file as a rar because it wont let me upload .so files for some reason;/

So just extract the file from within;))

JD
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] chowynatt:
Can't see any attached files?

Can somebody please upload these original SGS2 files before they applied this patch.

/system/app/Talk.apk

/system/app/GoogleServicesFramework.apk

/system/lib/libtalk_jni.so

Seam to be having issues sending photos to picasa? wont find account info or show my album names? when I try to upload, although it does sync and I can view them. Thinking it's with changing these files? as it was fine before.

Thanks.

Working fine on my SGSII but no matter what I do, I can't receive video calls over 3g. I will get an alert saying someone tried to video call me but I was NOT on WIFI. I can make calls over 3g no problem. Anyone know a fix for this? I have also cleared the data from the framework and the talk app and still same issue. Everything works fine over WIFI (receiving & sending)

The Talk installer messed up my talk.apk as it didn't work. It couldn't do a backup, it downloaded ok but the install failed on the recommended version and the 2nd modified one.

Has anyone a gtalk with video working with portrait/landscape, FFC and rear camera switching? preferrably a CWM version...

I have the latest stock firmware version KI8 and there is no video calling in gtalk :-(

Help...

I tried the modaco Talk first, but after reboot Gtalk ForceCloses ? (On My SGS2)

Then I tried all other, removed talk, booted several times, fix permissions, cleared cache,

no luck so far...

After every reboot it says process talk fc.

any ideas?

fixed:

removed talk, reboot, tried the talk 1.3 update from market again and with luck
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] markdj57:
I would install the CWM version as I have never found any of the gtalk app installers to work. Not as easy to install but it has never failed me, just reboot into ClockWorkMod, apply update from sdcard and navigate to the sgs1 talk installer.zip

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark lord me:
I have just bought up my transformer ( Love it ) but it's at about 10% battery right now... I take the cable that came with it (the usb one) and plugged it into my computer but it is not charging ? Any idea what's wrong with it ? when i plug it into the charging unit it works fine though
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krighton:
i've heard it has to be turned off for the USB charging to work....
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark lord me:
Like off as in screen off or off as in complete off ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sportsguy15:
It will not charge in your computer. You have to charge it in the wall.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eviltuna:
One of the pamphlets that came with it said the screen has to be off in order to charge it using a computer's USB port, cause the screen uses too much power and a USB port doesn't output as much, its best just to charge with the ac adapter. Nothing is wrong with your unit, thats just how it works.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikethreeout:
Turn off the screen and it will charge. (you don't need to turn it off; you just need a black screen) It is very, very slow though.

My wall charger never charged my tablet so I am awaiting a replacement. The USB charge is MUCH slower than the wall charge. We are talking about maybe 4-5% an hour -- max with the USB cable alone.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atxer:
Connecting this thing to a computer will NOT charge it. Even a normal 5V 1.2A-2A charger won't charge it fast enough. I used a 2A charger and it trickle-charged for over half a day and managed to clock in @ 50pc. I think the unit uses hardware info from the ASUS charger to detect the charger. Any other charger wont do.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
Isn't the cable and charger USB 3 and charging is at non USB 2 values (voltage and current).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristoA1:
Good amount of mis-info in this thread...

The unit *will* charge from computer USB, assuming the USB port provides enough amperage (not voltage). I have not yet measured out the amps used, but it's on my list of things to do...

In order to charge from computer USB, the display on the Transformer needs to be off. The unit can be on, but it must be asleep.

The adapter that comes with the transformer provides 15VDC via extra pins which loosely resemble USB 3.0. These are *not* USB 3.0 data/power specs, however a USB 3.0 extension cord could be used to lengthen the existing adapter.

Any USB car adapter should work to charge this in sleep mode, similar to a computer USB port. In order to "fast charge" in a car, however, you'd basically need to use an AC inverter with an ASUS Transformer adapter.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atxer:
Tried a 2.1A 5V charger. Took about 8 hours to charge @ 50pc. The ASUS charger is rated at 1.2A.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makaveli25:
is the only way to plug the device into your PC or laptop via USB on the dock?

you cant use the proprietary charger cable to do USB data transfer with the charging cable USB component?

ie....to do data transfers via USB (not the memory card), the only way is via the dock?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atxer:
No, one end of the charging cable is regular USB and the other end (tablet-end) is proprietary. You can transfer files over by connecting to your computer's USB.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makaveli25:
awesome, thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makaveli25:
do you think that if you get a male/female USB converter, you could plug in a USB memory stick device or a mini hard drive device and have it work fine in the charging cable just like you would if you were to plug in a mini hard drive into one of the usb ports on the dock?

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!​

Wait, let me say that again... use at your own risk! I am not responsible for bricked devices, loss of sanity, or nuclear holocaust!!

This is the extracted Kernel boot.img file from the G2 test leak 2.13.531.5 Gingerbread ROM. This boot.img has only been tested on Ultimate Droid 3.3.0 which resulted in some force closes. I can only suggest using this Kernel on ROMs built from the test leak (i.e. upcoming Virtuous, etc.). Multiple attempts were made to format this boot.img into a CWM flashable zip, however MANY attempts were failed with corrupt .init files and the system folder not mounting on on boot, ultimately resulting in the phone hanging on the HTC logo screen. This kernel has not been tested on the latest Cyanogenmod 7.0.3 build, so as stated before, flash at your own risk.

You WILL have to flash this kernel using fastboot, instructions are below for those who are unfamiliar. These instructions are for Mac / *NIX computers, however I do believe the Windows process is very similar. Read thru the instructions and understand them before beginning!!

1.) Extract the img file from the zip file, and rename it to "boot.img" (No quotes)

2.) Reboot into recovery and perform a nandroid backup. (DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!!)

4.) Reboot device into fastboot, NOT HBOOT! (If you are unsure, boot into the bootload by powering off the device, then powering on the device by holding Volume Down & Power buttons, then selecting FASTBOOT from the menu and pressing Power to select).

5.) Ensure USB Debugging Mode is enabled on your device and connect it via USB to your computer.

6.) Open a terminal prompt and navigate to the folder where the "boot.img" file you extracted is.

7.) Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (NO quotes)

8.) DO NOT INTERRUPT THE PROCESS!!Once it has completed, type "fastboot reboot" (NO quotes).

I have enlisted the help of pershoot and koush on resolving the CWM flashable zip issue, and I will post it once all issues have been ironed out. If the kernel works for you, enjoy! If not... follow the directions below.

1.) Reboot device into CWM RECOVERY.

2.) Select "Backup & Restore".

3.) Select "Advanced Restore".

4.) Select your backup that you were instructed to created.

5.) Select "Restore boot"

6.) Select "Yes"

7.) Do NOT interrupt process, once completed, reboot device from CWM main menu.

The above instructions will restore your phone to the previously working state without having to do a complete restore.

My root attempt failed.

Anyway I trying to get my phone back up and running. I have the stock setting back and attempting to restore from mybackup pro. When it goes to restore it displays each app saying, can not restore apk files because of the phone setting and can not restore app that are not from the market.

Well all my apps are from the market so any idea what to do next? It shows my backup file it just doesn't load it because of my setting which I can not change. My file shows all my apps as a apk file.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
It's not going to restore apps like that unless you're rooted and have sideloading capability.

If the phone is telling you it can't restore apps that aren't from the market, and all of your apps are from the market, then there isn't a problem, in itself...

It's where those market apps are at when you're trying to restore them that's the problem. Even though you originally got them from the market, mybackup is trying to pull them from your SD card. Unless you're rooted with sideloading, the phone considers any .apk that isn't directly installed from the market to be an "unknown source," and blocks it.

If you previously chose to have the phone backup your apps and settings via Google, market would reinstall the apps for you. If not, you're going to have to manually redownload them from the market, based on the list you can see in mybackup/from what you remember you had installed.

Just great, here goes hours of fun!!!! Now I am determine to root.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] swatcop1:
Just thinking I do have the side loader wonder machine and have installed apk files (swype) using it. Can I go into my SD card some how and grab the files that way. I am needing some of the data that I have in some of my apps.

For example, I use the "keeper" to store my personal info and account numbers. I need to retrieve this info along with a few others!!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Well, I'm not familiar with that app, but it depends on how it stores it's data.

If it has some kind of mechanism for storing your data remotely, like on some server or something, and would auto sync your data in a similar fashion to how Google does it with contacts, then that would work.

If it had some kind of export function to put your stuff in a separate file that you could retrieve later...

Otherwise, I don't know what to tell you, because if it wasn't one of the above two scenarios, chances are the app stores your data in a private database, in a special area of the phone that is inaccessible to any other app on an unrooted phone.

If this is the case, though it appeared mybackup was doing what you wanted it to, it wasn't doing EXACTLY what you wanted it to... It was backing up the apps themselves, the .apks, but not the data that corresponds to them.

It's confusing and a bit misleading for someone new to all of this Android customization stuff.... I got burned the same way the first time I rooted.

You kind of have to root before you start initially filling your phone with data. Once you root though, you CAN use mybackup pro to backup apps + data. I own the app myself. It's capable of doing it, it just needs root access first.

Hope you get it worked out...

Hi all -

Newbie to the forum here - as well, newbie to the Thunderbolt!

I have a question regarding downloading new skins for the TB. First off, is there a good location to find a variety of skins?

Secondly, the ones I have found are usually downloaded in a .zip format and I am unable to convert them to an .apk format. I have tried renaming them, but this doesn't work for me.

Can someone tell me how to locate ones with the extension .apk and/or how to use the ones that are in .zip format?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks much,
