Any news about this?

Think the fm radio app is in apps_compressed.bin.

Ive tried to decrypt the file with wave remaker and searched for hints like "fm" "radio" and "mhz".

There are lots of hits but I dont know how to change the frequency range for fm radio ...:confused:

Yeah we have known for a while now. Thunderbolt had it as well. Like that it will more likely have the same root method. The last time htc did something like this in the fall, they all followed the same method as the G2 that took a while to figure out. But this is getting annoying.
[General Questions and Answers] Lucidelusions:
Recently attempted to view a embedded flash video (youtube) posted inside a android applications internal browsers and was confronted with a black box saying I needed to upgrade flash.

I'm currently using the most up to date version of flash available in the android market place. I'm just wondering if this is an issue on my part or if it's the way the video was posted? Does the application need to be coded in order to point to the player or flash embedded somehow into the application itself?

Not sure if an answer can be found without me giving more information that I don't have but figured I would ask anyways.

I have a samsung captivate but the issue was faced by all android users.

PS- We where able to view the video without issue if we simply went to the forums via our phones browsers.

Thanks for any information,

I just ordered an SGS2, well my mobile contract just expired and I had to renew. I paid e118 for the phone. But I guess I will really miss my desire and sense, I really wish the Sensation could match the SGS2 but it simply can't :(
[Desire General] undercover:
In what terms sensation can't match sgs2?
[Desire General] godutch:
Screen quality(samoled+ vs slcd) , battery live, internal storage capacity(16 vs 1 GB ), memory (1 GB vs 768 MB ), the sensation's bootloader will be locked .

BTW on the sgs1 they have a mostly working sense 2.1+3.0 port (it worked about as good as the port to desire 6 weeks ago...)
[Desire General] godutch:
Well I got my SGS2 but I am using the old desire again, man did HTC do a good job with their user experience.
[Desire General] mrtiggleworth:
dunno i would go sgs2, and then probably look to make a working miui rom on it. I think HTC did a great job at the start. But with making their bootloaders more locked down and just generally making it harder to customise i wont get a HTC again. Which is a shame.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cluey:
Hi guys,

Another new Android user here.

I did the KE1 firmware update yesterday, I followed the instructions and backed up beforehand and the restored at the end. Doing so wiped all of the calendar stuff I had set up and synced to Google calendar and wiped them there too.

I'm wondering where I went wrong so I don't do this again.

Since then I've now done the KE2 update as well, both times I kept getting time out messages until I kept the screen awake. I think this is probably coincidental but you never know, I think it was timing out downloading the file before it even contemplated updating the phone, other posters have noted what I think are the same problems but it's hard to be sure with all the abbreviations used.

After multiple fails with KE2 I tried doing it via ODIN as per the thread here. That worked but after plugging phone back in while Kies was running it still had an update so that is a bit confusing too. As mentioned in the above paragraph I got that to work eventually while keeping the phones screen awake.

Looking at the phone info page I see the Build Number changed after doing it via Kies. GINGERBREAD.XWKE1/2.

So I would like to know what the Kies part updates which doing it the ODIN way didn't. I have looked for a decent wiki or FAQ but nothing is set up for beginners.

Thanks for your time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cluey:
I know I'm replying to myself here but I got to use my phone a bit more today and have some more questions.

How does the Navigation, Maps and Latitude work with the GPS?

I ask and phrase it that way as today on a 4x4 trip I was out of tower range and none of them were working even though I was locked on to four of the nine available satellites, according to GPS Test. Both the Maps and Navigation software were reporting, "Searching for GPS..." but never found it but if I switched to the GPS Test app if had a lock.

From what I can tell Maps and Latitude use the same map interface but the latter just lets you send your location to friends and keep a record of where you were, an overlay as the map puts it. Playing with it now I am back home and the application isn't coming up in the Task Manager so I'm not exactly sure which application is running but it has mapped out a route for me to take.

Additionally my friend has a cheap Android (only running 2.1) made by ASUS with Garmin software on it and his was working fine, well fine as in finding us but the software seemed to have trouble displaying useful information on the tracks we were on but that is a different topic.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Kies updates exactly the same file as Odin well almost the full file .

Odin was not the same firmware you flashed as showing on Kies .

Not normal to use both to update the same firmware .

Kies is the official update path firmware is as provided to Kies by your phone provider .

Odin is generic Samsung Firmware usually collected by Samfirmware .

That firmware is not always able to receive a later update via Kies .

Basic FAQ applies in the main to SGS 2 as well as 1 .

Hi guys, any thoughts regarding Battery life? I get roughly 8 hrs, not the 9.5-10hrs advertised/reported in the forums. Of course, this is with very high use, screen on 7.5hrs, wifi on the whole time, plex on for an hour or so, mobo video playing for an hour, and web browsing for a couple of hours, and some games too. Is this standard? Dock battery is ok, gives around 5 hrs. Any ideas on improving battery? Screen stays at 60% brightness all the time. Plus i have cnn, facebook, youtube, pulse, cnbc and plume widgets on. And active mail sync in the background.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funnycreature:
The 9.5h time is stated for constant 720p playback so I don't think your usage is that much higher. I never stopped the time for my ASUS but I am happy with it and I guess that's what matters most.

I use SetCPU (requires root) to set the clock speed to 216MHz when idle. That seems to improve battery life.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riddleric:
I am not getting anywhere close to 9 hours. At first I thought it's the apps I have been running in the background or the brightness, but it's the same after I adjust it. I get about 6 hours.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psycho2097:
Yes but i do video streaming over wifi. Also my wifi is on the whole time. And as far as i know, wifi takes more battery than video decoding.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
The 9.5 hours is for

Airplane mode

playing a local movie, only

display at about 30% based on the NITS listed and Anandtech measured brightness

I bet you can achieve the same if you duplicate their testing scenario.

As for improving battery life decreasing screen brightness can have a huge difference. The screen is often the #1 power usage item when I check on my phone. Also, reduce the checking frequency of any task that needs Wifi to get data.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gandda12:
It's been 15 days now since I had the TF and I can tell you based on my usage - I used up;

12% per hour - airplane mode, play games watch movies in auto brightness

1% per 2.5 hours standby.

So more or less 9 hours usage should be achievable.

Hi all. I just wanted to chime in on this thread here. Im a former owner of a xoom and can say that tablet was a beast when it came to battery life. I could have a full charge last for 2 weeks+ with very minimal use all consumed by idle standby. That was something to be said. The tf isn't as good; I can tell already, but I was surprised today! I charged it overnight and unplugged it around 11am. 98%, until I woke it up right now! Its at 97% with 13 hrs 39min. I probably had the screen on for only 5 minutes, but pretty good! One thing to point out that helped me a lot was to always have the tab in airplane mode. You can still have the wifi on and stay in airplane mode. That seemed to make a difference with the xoom. Just my $.02 :-)

I get 5ma constant use in sleep mode. By that logic, u would lose 1% in 13 hours on sleep mode. So yeah, idle use is pretty good. Decent tested flight mode yet though.but seriously, y doesn't battery use show the percent divisions like my phone? :O

Its doesn't seem that any of you guys are reading the manual when it comes to battery.

It says it clear in the manual. Why not follow what the book says, I guess some dont read.​

"If you intend to use battery power, be sure to fully charge your battery pack before going on long trips.Remember that the power adapter charges the battery pack as long as its plugged into the computer and AC power source. Be aware thats it takes much longer the charge the battery pack and when the Eee Pad is in use"

Remember to fully charge the battery (8 hours or more) before the first use and whenever it is depleted to prolong battery life. The battery reaaches it's maximum capacity after a few full charging and discharging cycles.

"To prolong Battery life, charge the battery for up to 8 hours when using Eee Pad for the first time and whenever the battery power is fully depleted.

I have CM7 installed... I know there are settings for screen timeout under display, and CM7 settings allow you to specify the delay for the screen to actually lock. But what about when the screen is locked, you turn it on to check the time and it shuts off after 5 secs. Can this be changed?

Background Info

Step-by-step guide for windows

Allow .jar files to be seen in APK Manager

How-to deODEX android.policy.jar for ODEXed ROMs

How-to for linux/mac(will make a better guide once I finish porting the APK Manager tool from Windows)

Old Stuff:There's not a setting to change the lock screen timeout but I got to looking around and think I found where it can be changed. The stuff I found pointed to android.policy.jar which is located in /system/framework so I adb pulled it and then decoded it using apktool. Some smali files contain hex values of 0x1388 equals 5000 in decimal where 5000ms = 5s. So one of those should be what we want to change. I'm going to try figuring out which one to change, set it to 10s = 10000ms = 0x2710. If it works for me, I can describe how to do it yourself in better detail and/or post a modified android.policy.jar with the timeout you would like.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MongooseHelix:
Edit: I started a thread about this in the Eris dev forum and removed the attached files from here. PM me or post in one of these two threads if you have questions or would like me to modify and send you a custom android.policy.jar

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1079844

I successfully increased the default 5s timeout when you wake the phone but don't unlock. If you want to test it out, download one of the attached zip files corresponding to the timeout you would like to have(10s or 30s). Extract android.policy.jar from the zip file and follow either the ADB or Root Explorer or Terminal Emulator instructions below.

If using ADB:

adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/framework
mv android.policy.jar android.policy.jar.bak
exit
adb push android.policy.jar /system/framework
adb shell
cd /system/framework
chown 0:0 android.policy.jar
chmod 644 android.policy.jar
#reboot to recovery#
#wipe both cache and dalvik-cache#
#reboot#

If using Root Explorer on phone:

If using Terminal Emulator on phone:

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
mv /system/framework/android.policy.jar /system/framework/android.policy.jar.bak
mv /PATH/TO/NEW/android.policy.jar /system/framework
cd /system/framework
chown 0:0 android.policy.jar
chmod 644 android.policy.jar
#reboot to recovery#
#wipe both cache and dalvik-cache#
#reboot#

Later tonight or tomorrow I will post a how-to so anyone can make the necessary modifications themselves. That should allow for other devices/ROMs to modify theirs as well since it will be customized to their phone.

I've only tested this on my Eris running GSB v3.1 - Gingerbread 2.3.4 - CM 7.1.0 RC0. Be sure to make a NAND backup and a backup of android.policy.jar as I can't guarantee this will work for you. If you have problems or just want to switch back to the original 5s timeout, replace the modified android.policy.jar with the android.policy.jar backup, wipe cache & dalvik-cache, and reboot or restore from the NAND backup you created.

When I plug my phone in it doesnt seem to be going into debugging mode. I have that option checked for it to enable when USB is plugged in but the only icon showing is the USB icon.

I havent tried running the adb shell since I flashed to CM7..is there something I need to do differently with this ROM?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MongooseHelix:
The debugging notification will only show up if the option for "USB debugging notify" is also checked in Settings->Applications->Development. Not sure why it wouldn't be able to find your phone especially since it sounds like you had it working fine before. What version of adb do you have? I'm using v1.0.26 and never had any problem. You can check the version with the command "adb version". You could also try using adbWireless which would allow you to not have it hooked to your computer with the USB cable.

Scratch that last post..I got it working in ADB Shell

I downloaded the APK tool and moved the files to C:\Windows

Ran this successful: adb pull /system/framework/android.policy.jar

Problem with: apktool d android.policy.jar out - error saying it couldn't find apktool. I went to restart my phone to see if that was an issue and now its hung on the white android screen and wont boot up

Thoughts?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MongooseHelix:
You didn't actually modify anything on the phone right? And didn't push anything to it either? If not, nothing would have changed and it shouldn't be having a problem booting. Try "adb reboot recovery", wipe cache & dalvik-cache then reboot. If you can't run adb commands...pull the battery, put it back in, power it on and hold volume up + power to get into recovery. If something was modified, use adb to revert the modded files back to the originals or restore with a NAND backup if you made one.

Edit: As for apktool not being found, it sounds like apktool is not in your PATH. The Windows folder should be part of your PATH by default. You could check your PATH variable by following these instructions and modify it if needed or you try moving the unpacked apktool files to the same location as the adb command which is most likely /PATH/TO/ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools OR /PATH/TO/ANDROID_SDK/tools

I'm not all that familiar with how Windows handles things but something it should be able to find apktool.jar if it's the same directory as apktool.bat. What is the contents of apktool.bat? A workaround would be manually doing the .bat file's job and run "apktool" using this command instead:

"java -jar /LOCATION/OF/apktool.jar"

Typing that in a cmd window should give you the usage output for apktool. If that works, you could then use that format to decode and build apk/jar files.
