If you want the Xperia Play to succeed, then you need to support the quality game developers like Gameloft and buy their games.

They are 3 quid for crying out loud.

THREE QUID.

Dont be tight. Pay the game developers (especially the good ones like Gameloft) and help make the Xperia Play gorw ! :)

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
hey did anyone manage to get the keys work with these kernels (KERNELS WITH KEYPAD DRIVERS AS MODULES) in any CWM build?

I try to load it using terminal like before but its not working

even the Gscript method is not working anymore, is there any other solution than restarting the device with KERNELS WITHOUT KEYPAD DRIVERS AS MODULES after each freez, the freez mostly happen after pressing the right option in the keypad or using setCPU
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] saobang3886:
Did you do all step remove old modules and make autostart for it? it work good for me. Try my build here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1068869, and follow this tut:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11808067&postcount=2 for make kernels with keypad drivers as modules work!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
i did

what i did was i put the monster kernel with keypad drivers and when i boot android the keypad is already not working i go to terminal

i type ur first command box and then rite after that i type the second one(could be wrong because its written SU again?!) and then after i finish nothing happens and using the Gscript i load the script and it says files doesnt exist
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] saobang3886:
OPP! :confused:

First, you should boot with kernel without modules keyboard, it easy to setting in first time. try setting all thing who make that build recommend!

Second, in stall Autostart and gScript app. copy autostart.sh to root of your sdcard. open terminal, remove old modules and copy autostart.sh to /data/opt like this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11808067&postcount=2

Then open restart keyboard script in your computer, open Gscipt in your phone, add new script, tip name is restart keyboard. Script like the file you open in computer!

after that, restart to window mobile, copy kernel with keyboard as module to your boot folder, replace old file, then reboot and it will work!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Kurt Krummbein:
Well, after setting up all the scripts for loading and reloading of the kernel modules and then removing all kernel-modules of the old kernel (that without the drivers als module), you have to reboot your device. As part of the boot process, the new kernel modules are copied from the tar.gz-file, without deleting the old modules, this step will be skipped from the boot script.

So.

1. prepare all scripts

2. remove the old modules

3. boot the new 'KEYBOAD-AS-MODULES' kernel with it's module-archtive in place

On the other hand, the problem exists, that booting to CWM will fail with that kernel (somebody might correct me, if i'm wrong), but as a workaround this, you can put a file with the name 'recovery.txt' into the npkboot directory ... the works quite nice and is much cooler that trying to press vol-down in the right moment :-) ... i renamed it then to no_recovery.txt ... makes getting to recovery quite relaxed ...

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] hopsakee:
Well, this reads like the solution to my problem I adressed in this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1195638.

But I don't understand. You mean I can just put an empty recovery.txt file into the npkboot directory. If I reboot with that file in place, CWM wil start?

If I rename the empty recovery.txt file into no_recovery.txt it will not start into CWM but start into Android.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Kurt Krummbein:
Yep, here's the code from the init script that's in rootfs.img:

if [ -f /sdcard/npkboot/recovery.txt ]; then

so ... have fun with Android on your X1 :-).

[General Questions and Answers] dekuji63:
I am a complete n00b and have just gotten a Nook Color updated to 1.2 and followed the steps in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1054027. My question is... how long does the process typically take or should I worry that something is wrong?

Everything seems to have gone just fine up until I selected 'install from sd card' - and it still LOOKS ok but it also looks like it's not doing anything. My screen shows a tophat and arrow. Nothing is moving or indicating there's anything going on. I'm just not sure if I've done something wrong or just need to walk away and ignore it for a few hours.

It took almost two hours to get my SD card set up with the root img. I'm wondering if this might be similar. I like to panic early and avoid the holiday rush.

If something seems out of whack, I'd appreciate an idiot's guide to what I probably should do next. :)

Thanks for your advice!

I take a lot of videos of my daughter, pictures also, and I wanted an easy way to sync my dcim/camera folder to a folder on my computer. I know I can plug the phone in and sync that way.

I already have a dropbox account and 1gb is used up with roms and such, any other alternative?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] andydrives2fast:
I use Titanium Media Sync to sync to my Dropbox. I take it you don't want to use up the remaining gig on your Db?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] redsunrising:
SugarSync always works very nicely with syncing and PC/Mac. And if I'm correct it may have about 2 GBs of storage as well.

P.S. Check the sig for a referral.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] TokedUp:

Photobucket works too. At least to the cloud. You'd have to pull it from there to the pc. If you're around the house you could always send them over wifi with shared folders if you don't want to plug in the phone.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] huttel:
I had the same need and first tried out Titanium Media Sync (on HTC Desire) but was annoyed to learn that you only have limited options for the sync (currently "continuous" and "single one way"). I needed the app to upload (and unload) photos and videos from the device to a network location, ultimately to free up space on the device. However, with the continous sync, any files deleted on the device will result in deletion on the network as well; which does not provide much of a backup.

I ended up with Syncness, which is exactly what I needed. You can configure it to sync only with specific networks, at specific hours of the day, only at A/C power, etc. (the latter is in all fairness also supported by Titanium). It can even save original file dates/info to the remote location. You can also ask the app to delete the synced files once they have been copied to the remote location. Syncness ftp's the files to my Synology FileStation NAS server on my home network - I'm not sure what other transfer protocols are supported.

[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
My pc crashed the other day. I've rebuilt a new one and installed all my software, but the keystore directory to my android app was not backed up. I know the password, alias and directory it was all in, but after re-creating that directory, it still wants me to create a new keystore. What should I do? If I create a new keystore using the previous keystore's password/alias, will the market let me upload a new version of my app?
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
No. You're pretty much screwed. If you lose you private key, there is no way to recover it.
[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
So what does that mean for my app in the market. What do I do the next time I have an update to upload?
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
I'm not sure. You'll have to ask them.
[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
Wow, so I lose my download count, comments, ratings, and confuse everyone that already has my app and has to download one with a different name. It seems like there should be a more efficient way to resolve this type of problem.
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Read up on Public-key cryptography. There really is no other way. You must keep your private key and must keep it private for the system to work. Make a copy and burn it to a CD (maybe 2 CDs), then store it someplace safe.
[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
So what's normally done here... do I delete my existing app and then publish a similarly named one with my new key, or do people just leave both the old and the new apps up?
[Android Software Development] britoso:
...backed up my keystore just in case after reading this.
[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
I do have a copy of my signed apk. If I re-create the directory that was my keystore (I do know the passwords and alias names) and put the signed apk in that directory...will that then let me build a properly signed apk using my existing key?
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
You didn't read the link I posted I see.

The answer is no. If your private key is gone, it's gone. You could try and brute-force it from your public key if you've got nothing better to do with a super computer for a few centuries.
[Android Software Development] greydarrah:
So for the future, if I want to back up my keystore, what specifically do I need to back up? Is it the directory that I told Eclipse to put the signed apk in? I can't remember anything other than the apk being in the directory.

You don't need the "-t ext4" option.

Hello,

I am trying to install CM7, the stable (bbq) version, on my gfs n1. I downloaded the zip, did a nandroid backup just in case, applied zip and rebooted. It opened to the CM7 load screen and i thought everything was working. Waited on that blasted screen for 45 mins and nothing happened. Did a battery pull and restored from the backup and everything is working how it used to. I am trying to figure out why the CM7 install didnt work.

I think it is because of the radio. She is coming from 2.1, an old CM rom. I am not sure which one. I didnt update any radio before i flashed the rom. I didnt know which radio to flash. The newest radio is a Korean radio. Should i flash that before i do CM7 flash. Any advice would be great. Thank you.

[Nook Color Accessories] TNYBAD:
Hello to all of you.

I would like to share some information for people interested in pairing winMOBILEphone to nook as GPS provider.

I am using this setup:

Nook color: ROM - Phiremod 6.1 -stock kernel

- Bluetooth GPS Provider app from the market

WinPhone: HTC TYTN2 - Kaiser: ROM almost any, tried several 6.1 & 6.5.

(also tried on Xperia-X1, HTC HD2, Touch Diamond2)

- aplication for sending GPS over BT: Franson GPSgate

Run GPSgate as server, set it up to sent over BT. no problem to pair with NOOK, run some aplication like GPS test to initialize the GPS device on the phone. Then you should see on the nook in Bluetooth GPS Provider app that is recieveing signal.

Hope this might help somebody.

I'm going to try juice defender I hope it helps =D I've seen a slight bit improvement but that's when I turn off 3g..and I've read most people are getting good batt life WITH 3g on hmm..
