I initially tried the genius/dragon 'dicktation' .zip install but that didn't work. I haven't looked much into it yet though. Currently working on this Netflix situation. Will probably look into Genius in a little bit.

okay thanks buddy :) since trew blue drews is a rip from the mytouch slide. I say you try to rip the one from 2.3.3 mysense 2.1 leaked rom (faux's) that one actually has better responsive time, and voice detection

Hi devs (schlund, devras, tzacapaca, anynymous devs & future devs)

Since Cardsharing deleted all the photon kernel repository on GIT website (thank you Cardsharing), we need to do it again.

I suggest we use Google Code:

http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/GettingStarted

Google code has a project src hosting (for devs), a bug tracker (for devs and users), a wiki (for n00bs) and a download section.

The drawback is, all of you guys need a google ID to use it.

Otherwise we can continue with a new GIT repository, or use google SVN for that, or any other tool of your suggestion.

What do you think?
[HD Mini Android Development] -r0bin-:
ok sorry i forgot, codiak already created this page for photon:

http://code.google.com/p/photon-android/

let's use this!
[HD Mini Android Development] fatslim:
Sry for spamming, but why did Cardsharing delete all hes posts ?
[HD Mini Android Development] utsavkoju:
Though cardsharing is a great developer but is being childish at this time. He just believe r0bin, schlund and other developers are not supporting him.

@cardsharing: stop acting rude dude. Think evaone is developing their part of job and developing their part of work. Please don't act so badly and help us porting android on hd mini.

thanks r0bin, schlund and other developers for porting android for us.

Who did this new thing 18.05.2011_r96.rar in the Download list?

I didn't know that has been added since 5/23?

Please if something new we must know.. :)

Thanks

This release has been done by Schlund, using his new kitchen!

To my knowledge, it is similar to the previous latest release, but thanks to schlund's kitchen it takes less space.

Schlund's Kitchen is a tool for devs (many thanks Schlund, this tool is very powerful!)

It allows you to update and modify easily the files stored inside system.ext2, init.rd and kernel and generate those files for test & release.

Schlund also wrote a wiki here:

http://code.google.com/p/photon-android/wiki/GettingStartedWithTheKITCHEN

Regarding releases changes, don't worry, if there is any bug fixed this will be posted on the forum.

Till now, we're still working on 3G, little progress:

photon can now be "attached" to GPRS, next step is IP configuration.

be patient...
[HD Mini Android Development] iPlasm:
Thank you for your answer Robin.. & Thanks for schlund also.

No problem.. I will be patient :)

I just wanted to say if new packages, as I said: Please if something new we must know.. :) for helping or something else.. :D

Anyway Thanks
[HD Mini Android Development] superzuan:
woww very cool you are still working on it. i will be patient and check every week once a time, or there is any progress. Thumbs up for the Devs.
[HD Mini Android Development] duccnnd:
Google code is really useful for user like me to get the update and wiki. Thanks so much robin

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] vicci:
Has anybody used Aldiko Pro? I want to buy one, but I want to know if it works with transformer. I have read Aldiko is not compatible with HC
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] nxp3:
It sort of work if you don't try to change orientation. If you go from landscape to portrait or vice versa...it FC.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] rikkia:
Try Moon+ Reader, Agree that Aldiko FC books on change orentation. Moon+ works well for me with as yet no FC + more features than Aldiko.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ChiGal:
+1 on Moon+ Reader. I use this on my TF and EVO with no problems.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Galoot:
Aldiko Premium working great for me...no FC
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lifeisfun:
Same here, no FC
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] FrayAdjacent:
So it does NOT FC if you open a book and then rotate the screen?

I have the free version and it FC every time you rotate the screen. I'd drop a couple bucks on the pro version if it doesn't do this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Canadoc:
Does moon reader hide the navigation buttons like kindle app does?

I hate seeing the home and back and menu button while reading especially in the dark.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Swissninja:
I had the force close problem as well, but you can go into settings and lock it into portrait mode. I can't imagine reading in landscape mode, anyway. Problems only arise when I launch Aldiko with the dock attached (dock forced landscape + Aldiko forced portrait = Android force close), but when I'm reading, I'm holding it portrait without the dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lifeisfun:
Nope, not yet anyways.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] rikkia:
No but its hardly noticeable I read with 1% brightness in night mode and never see the buttons lit up.

Also I had FC with Aldiko Pro on rotate.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Sanderfox:
If I import the books on my microSD card, can I then delete the original files? It seems to make a copy of everything, but I'm not sure.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] javroch:
Why would anybody pay for a bookreader in the first place with all the great free options? Not trolling, just curious what the reasons are
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bithir:
Because we like to support people who make products we love?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] neotekz:
you guys should check out coolreader, its only 1 dollar and has many options and support lots of formats. i compared aldiko, fbreader and a few others but i think coolreader is better. i just discovered the free reader that comes with the transformer is pretty good too. i really like the dual page display.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bithir:
Latest Aldiko update removes the crash-on-rotate bug. This was the only item that kept me from giving them a few small coins for their product. :) Now running Aldiko Premium and enjoying it :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] burnshroom:
Long time user of Aldiko and love it on my TF.

No force close issues but I prefer portrait mode so have it locked into that orientation. No FC issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] graculusthegreenbird:
Lag in Aldiko?

How is the lag under Honeycomb? I love Aldiko for all its features, but on my HTC Hero and Desire HD it has ridiculous amounts of lag when updating the book cover thumbnails when you are in any of the views.

On those devices, you scroll down just a few books and you see a default Aldiko cover which after a second or so updates to show the actual cover. If you scroll down more, again the same lag. But what is really annoying is that if you scroll up again to the books you just viewed, which had already shown the cover, they have reset to show the default Aldiko, so you have to wait again for it to update. Just looks so tacky, when the rest of the software is so polished.

I really don't understand why they can't update the thumbnails more smoothly.

Is it the same behaviour on the Transformer or other Honeycomb devices?

That is the only thing really stopping be from gettin Honeycomb over the HTC Flyer, because the Flyers Reader UI like on all their latest phones is simply beautiful, I think it uses OpenGL so it so fluid.

Thanks for any advice!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] number16:
I'm looking for a ebook reader as well, and I was primarily looking at kindle and nook. I like both for a few reasons ...

nook seems to have a much better selection of magazines ... car and driver for example, is 99c per month with nook, but unavailable on kindle.

I like kindle because its ebooks are often cheaper (kindle version of the same book is quite often 50% cheaper than nook) and it also syncs between different devices. I read from my Desire and my Transformer so this feature is a must.

What other ebook readers do you guys recommend?

I looked into moon+ reader but it looks iffy when it requires access to a lot of personal info ... why does an ebook reader need to know about state of my phone for example???

FBReader also looks good.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
Hello all :)

I recently got a great deal for a Vibrant (150$ contract free, looking brand new :eek: ).

I live in Europe and I already own a Galaxy S, so I thought "hacking" the Vibrand would be a piece of cake... well it wasn't :D Finally after reading a ton of stuff here on the forums I managed to beat it using Odin.

After finally getting root the first thing I did was to download Galaxy S unlocker from the Market so I could use it with a local SIM card... and it failed. The app couldn't find any codes? and neither the root or non-root method worked.

The Vibrant recognizes that there's a SIM card, and even asks me for a PIN on boot... then nothing happens. When I try to make a call, "Data network not available" is displayed.

The network here is GSM 900/1800.

I'm currently on the deodexed KB5 2.2 ROM flashed via CWM.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
Hmm...I believe there was another method to unlocking it other than the Galaxy S unlocker program you have. It will require root which you have.

Search around the Vibrant forums, I think it was from at least a few months back.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
Yes, I found it but I'm not sure wheter it's a lock issue (it said "no codes found") or I have to flash an European modem or something. I'll try it anyway and report any results.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
No luck :confused:

All the methods work for 2.1 and I'm on Froyo KB5.

Plus it's not really an unlock code issue..

It's rather... the SIM card doing nothing.

- Is it insearted?

Yes

- Does the phone recognize there's a SIM card?

Yes

- If you have a PIN, does it ask for it on boot?

Yes

- Well what's wrong then?

I can't do anything else with the SIM... not even join a network :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
Did you per any chance lock your SIM card with a PIN code?

Cause if you did, it is asking for the code that you locked it with. . .

Try another, UNLOCKED SIM card just to be sure that's not the issue.

The phone SHOULD ask you for an unlock code only. A pin code request (unless you are reading the unlock code as a pin code) means the SIM card is locked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
The card was unlocked, I put the PIN on purpose later, just to see if it'd recognize that
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
Then what is the issue? Without the PIN, it recognizes the SIM and loads up fine but doesn't get on any network?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
Yes! :D

And that way it's just a VERY overpowered iPod touch. :( Would be nice if I could actually make phone calls from it, but if not - whatever.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tamborine:
I remember anything above 2.1 theres an issue with the SGS unlocker on the market. I had to use a different method, and I don't remember where I received the instructions from, but I did find this for you on youtube. Please do watch the whole video as the person has the same problem, but runs you through the steps to unlocking by using a different method.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
gosh... no dice. :eek:

The phone never asks me for any unlock code, just stuck on "Searching"
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex9090:
Try a different modem. If not then try a different rom..may be?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEFINITIONOFREAL:
Why not just odin back to stock,reroot, and try to unlock it before flashing a rom

Will try that in the evening and report outcome ^^
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chizzwhizz:
Is it just me or were quite a bit of features removed from the final version of the GS2?

I remember video reviews that showed being able to change the saturation of videos...face recognition...vlingo having a conversation translate similar to google translate.

Are there anymore that any of you have spotted? Do you think these features will be included in later software updates?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapax:
Just as a disclaimer up front, I haven't worked with Windows in years, I'm a complete Linux user, so don't assume I know anything. I'm not used to messing around with device drivers or searching for software on the web etc. Where Windows is concerned, I'm your 80 year old Grandmother, ok?

Ok, so with the Gingerbread firmware rolling out, I decided it might be time to try and get my Tab working with Kies. I got access to a windows machine, and went to work. Here's what I did (just in case I messed up somewhere):

Connected the Tab to the windows machine via USB, and selected mass storage device.

Windows mentioned something about needing drivers, which seemed weird (isn't the Tab a normal mass data storage device when told to be one?), but after a few seconds it claimed it was ready to use, so I went ahead and mounted it and could see my files in the Windows file browser. So far so good.

I then disconnected the Tab from windows and went looking for Kies. After some short struggle I was able to download and install it.

Next, I connected the Tab again, this time selecting 'Samsung Kies' mode. Nothing happened, neither on the Tab nor on the Windows machine.

Tried again, this time as 'Media Player'. Nothing happened.

Tried again, in Mass Storage Device mode. Kies tries to connect, then tells me to try again in Kies mode. I do so. Nothing happens.

After some googling, I try with the external SD card unmounted, as that seems to be recommended. No difference.

I told Kies to reinstall the device drivers. No difference.

I've rebooted Tab and PC. No difference.

What am I doing wrong? Can someone who uses his Tab with Windows maybe post a step-by-step howto?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A. Nonymous:
I'm interested in this too as I'm having the exact same problem. If I connect as a mass storage device, I get an error that it needs to be in Kies mode. If I connect in Kies mode, Kies sees the device and shows the status as "connecting" but never actually connects. On the Tab, it says that it's connected though. I've tried this on Win XP and Win 7. Same behavior both times.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapax:
Interesting, you're already a step ahead on me. I don't get anything in Kies Mode, no connecting, nothing. I've tried on a 64bit Vista system and a 32Bit Win7 system, but no difference. In Kies mode, I don't even get the 'device plug in' sound in windows.

Care to tell me how you got Kies to at least see the Tab in Kies mode? What version of Kies are you using, etc.?

I'm using a rooted GSM (euro) Tab on Swisscom network and Kies V2.0.0.11014_49_2
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapax:
I think I've cracked it. Firmware update is installing on my Tab as we speak.

What did I do? Seems really simple. I went to the Connections and Network Settings on the Tab, and in USB Connection Settings, I changed it from 'ask on connection' to 'samsung kies'. Upon plugging it in, it told me that it had to disable Bluetooth to enable the USB connection (never seen that screen before), so I allowed that, and windows immediately scrambled for device drivers and Kies show the connecting sign at the top left.

I'll keep you posted on how it went.

UPDATE: The installation process ran through, and Kies instructed me to disconnect and reboot my Tab. I did. However, it nows hangs during the boot sequence, at the stage where the blue 'SAMSUNG' logo is shown. From time to time, the Tab vibrates like it does when an application force closes, but it doesn't seem to finish booting. I fear I may have bricked my Tab. Trying to go through the recovery menu now.

Ok, factory reset from the recovery menu brought it back to life. No Gingerbread as of yet, but the XXJMF version of Froyo.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lardman:
No, unfortunately not.

Back to the overall question - I had similar problems when I bought my Tab in the tail end of last year (Win7 64bit) and had to do some strange combination of attaching the Tab and starting Kies mode on the device before starting Kies on the PC (and dancing a jig while singing the Jingle Bells, you get the picture)

Today I installed the latest version of Kies and it all seems to just work. Therefore it might be worth updating your Kies version (or perhaps I'm just lucky this time through!)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lardman:
I take it back, same old problem of never connecting unless I plug in the Tab before I start Kies on the PC, sorry for the noise!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A. Nonymous:
I am having no luck whatsoever. I'm rooted if that makes any difference at all. My process has been going like this:

Plug Tab into computer. Wait until I see the screen that says Kies is connected.

Fire up Kies on my computer. Under Connected devices I see "connecting."

That is as far as I get. I never get further than that and I've tried it on Win7 (64 bit) and XP (32 bit) with the exact same results. I've re-installed the driver twice and rebooted both the Tab and the computer multiple times. Kies tells me it's the latest version so that's not an issue. Supposedly there is a Froyo update out there that fixes the screen orientation issue, but I can't get it. Frustrating. This should not be that hard. The fact that there are this many people all having the same issue just proves how half-baked this software is IMO.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapax:
Did you try without the SDcard? Seems Kies doesn't play nicely with external SD.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A. Nonymous:
I didn't. I can't think of why that would make a difference, but I'll try it when I get home. Can't hurt anything.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A. Nonymous:
Seemed to make no difference at all on the Win 7 machine or the XP machine. Goes to connecting and never actually connects. My Tab says it's connected. Kies never does connect on my Win 7 (64 bit) or on XP (32 bit). Frustrating to know that there is an update available that fixes issues I'm having, but I can't get it.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sisa7:
I've just got this problem too.

My solution: set the usb connect type in your tab to "kies" from "ask when connected". It solved my problem.

Sorry for my english. :o

[edit] Well, I read the whole thread and realised you found the same slution. Nevermind, at least I tried to help. :D
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A. Nonymous:
I tried that, but it didn't work for me.

I have factory reset and unrooted.

Removed the micro-SD card.

Changed to "ask when connected."

Nothing works. Same behavior. Kies says "connecting", but never connects.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A. Nonymous:
I finally got my problem fixed. I had to take a 3rd computer, install Kies, reboot, plug in the Tab, wait for all the drivers to install except for the drive for the MTP device (this wouldn't install). Then I had to have it re-install the drivers, unplug the Tab and reboot it, then plug it in again. The thing finally connected and I was able to sync. Then it displayed a message that the firmware cannot be updated. Not sure if that means cannot be updated at the moment or if that means cannot be updated ever. Seems like a ton of work for nothing.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapax:
Update: just noticed that after the mentioned update, all the APN entries were gone. Had to set them up again by hand. No big issue, but annoying. I hadn't noticed until this morning, because I was on Wifi all weekend :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ufd108:
I just got my AT&T Galaxy Tab and when I try to connect to Kies I get the message "This device is not supported by Kies 2.0." I checked for updates but it says it is the latest version. Anyone have any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipit:
I know this isn't helpful but KIES is very Flaky. I've never managed to get it working 100%. "Ask for connection type' almost always doesn't work. It's not worth the trouble as it's a completely USELESS app anyway.

For those who don't want to download the ADB drivers separately it's good for that then once the drivers are installed just uninstall and move on :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ufd108:
But how can you install the Gingerbread update without Kies?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipit:
I don't bother with Samsung provided updates. Just get my ROMS from right here and use ODIN :) Thanks to the wonderful devs (Ocome) on this site.

PS: Even if you want a stock GB ROM you can get it from here. No need for Kies.
