[LG Optimus 2x] MillyMoo106:
CM7 seems to be really good for me, i used 28% of it with medium-heavy use (no games, but wifi always on and a lot of playing about with) in 5 hours and at night i lost 3% in 7 hours sleep with 3G on. Not fully stable but seems better than sacrificing the smartness of my smartphone.
[LG Optimus 2x] weebeast:
Lost 0% 2 days ago when sleeping for 9-10 hours i think

Today i lost 1% when sleeping for 9-10 hours

I am using 2g since i don't have 3g connection in my house.

It's a bit unstable but battery improvement is more important for me then some little bugs:D
[LG Optimus 2x] reidar.ostrem:
No problem :-).

The O2X does not have good battery management, so it will drain.. getting usable results with mcr r15
[Thunderbolt General] junjlo:
ok so i went ahead and updated the ruu for the new radio and now TB shows 4g but cannot connect to any internet :(. should have left it alone cuz i had awsome 4g connection figured it can only get better but i was wrong :/.

ok after letting the phone sit for like 20 min it worked just fine back to full blown 4g :D
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Glad to hear all is okay. Someone's it just takes some time to connect depending on current conditions and what not.
[Thunderbolt General] nerozehl:
Yeah, sometimes Jupiter has to align with Saturn and the earth's magnetic field has to flip backwards and you have to fall on a leap year.
[Thunderbolt General] ERIFNOMI:
DO you by chance work for VZW support?

Nope just know how technology works.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] garrei:
hey all, i flashed a bad kdz to my gt540, i get loads of "com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly" force close messages, i cant go into the settings to change any usb options. i downloaded the LG official 2.1 firmware kdz file to try and reflash that coz it will still pop up as "USB debugging connected" when i plug it into my pc, but the pc will not recognize the phone anymore. the kdz updater just says "phone cannot be found", i tried it about 10 times, one of them froze up my computer and gave me the blue screen of death! its pissing me off coz now i cant use my phone to even send messages but a few apps from the custom rom will still run on the phone. i have no idea what to do now, any help PLEASE! it would be much appreciated.

hey...i just downloaded the go launcher on my xperia x8..but when i press the middle key a window appears that asks me with which app i want to continue..how can i just pick one of them and keep it as the default app? thanks..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] antonio1475:
Can't you select at the bottom of the popup "Use by default"?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sgnox:
u re right..thanks..and how cam i change the launcher again?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] antonio1475:
Option A: Uninstall a launcher (for example Go Launcher) and it will ask again.

Option B: Go to Settings-->Applications-->All apps-->"The launcher you are using by default right now" (In this case Go Launcher)-->Delete default config or something like that (scroll down to see it).

Option C: Search in the market for Home Manager (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.carp.HomeManager&feature=search_result)

You re right again..thanks pal :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaxxiB:
Had a very weird experience last night with my phone, I took the phone out of its case when I was out, and on my battery widget it said it was using excessive voltage, after trying to find out what was happening, it would just keep crashing and then going to some form of different home screen that isn't the SGS II one more of a stock android one, it would keep crashing all night so I turned it off for the night and then it's not had any troubles YET today. anyone having similar experiences? Everything is stock Orange UK SGS II, no flashing, rooting whatsoever. if any other information is required I will post. Also battery went down suddenly from 97% to 84% when this excessive voltage was on.

also forgot, it would keep saying it was connecting to USB when there was nothing connected.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Orange is the store to return the phone to or you could try a factory reset wiping all data .

ok now there´s me again. I had a look on your tutorial. nice work although I couldn´t figure out how to change my lockscreen background :(

Someone can tell me how a custom wallpaper has to be named, so I can just put it into \system\app\HtcLockScreen\res\drawable-hdpi ??

This is really all I want to have, just my own lockscreen wallpaper.

Any help?
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
Edit:

I released a compiled APK that I believe is done. Please check http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13809172&postcount=8 for more info!

I made this over the past few days for my Iconia. Since we're going to be getting 3.1 soon, I don't think I want to bother cleaning it up and finishing it.

And, before someone says something about how it's crappy, it was the first android project (Not first Java/Linux) I've ever done, I think it came out pretty well. I've put most of the major issues into //TODO:'s (such as proper detection on what event to use)

Credits to whoever posted the service example I used. I looked, but I couldn't seem to track it back down.

(Feel free to do whatever you want with it, just please include my name somewhere on it. :))
[Acer Iconia A500] sto88:
Hi, can you post a guide to install your mod? Thank you
[Acer Iconia A500] ardatdat:
Yak, I don't know how the zip is related to USB mouse support. Please tell us how to use the mouse.zip. Thanks very much.
[Acer Iconia A500] hellcat82:
Firstly Great work to the OP, I never considered redirecting mouse events to the touch screen.

I hope you don't mind, but considering 3.1 is a little while away I'd like to upload this as an apk with a few tweaks.

Tweaks so far:

Moved the SU request to the app instead of the service, that way all su calls are caught by Superuser manager and permissions are requested appropriately.

Set boundaries so your mouse can't wander off the screen.

Changed the text cursor to a png cursor.

When I work out a way to detect which event entry is the mouse I'll upload the APK, until then it's not likely to work for most people.

Keep in mind when I do upload it'll be fragile and possibly won't work for everybody.

Now I'm going to get some much needed sleep :D
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
very nice. I looked into detecting the mouse automatically, all I could come up with is reading the dmesg logs and relating them to getevents' output, which seems a bit over the top for this.

Perhaps ask for what dev to use on launch?
[Acer Iconia A500] hellcat82:
Yeah that or have a detection mode which asks you to unplug the mouse if plugged in, then to plug it in and detect the added entry.
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
that would work too. You'll still neneed to match it with aan input from getevent, though.

Edit: Just use getevents. It returns every system event, and only the mouse ones will start with 0003.

Edit2: Ignore that edit. Doesn't return info like I was thinking it did. :D

Edit3: Actually..... my keyboard doesn't send any events that'd conflict.

(values are hex strings)

/dev/input/event4: 0001 0110 00000001 = left down

/dev/input/event4: 0001 0110 00000000 = left up

/dev/input/event4: 0001 0111 00000001 = right down

/dev/input/event4: 0001 0111 00000000 = right up

/dev/input/event4: 0002 0001 XXXXXXX = Y coord change

/dev/input/event4: 0002 0000 XXXXXXX = X coord change

Sec, I'll write up code to parse this type too, and attach it here.

Edit 4:Not going to work decently. getevent buffers far too much when not outputting to a tty.

Edit 5: Okay, realized that I could check what keycodes a device could send, and that there are some mouse specific keycodes. (getevent -p)

This should return the path to a mouse, or 'NONE' if there is no mouse.

String getMouse()
{
String Message = "";
String[] Parts;
String curDevice = "";
Process process = null;
boolean deviceFound = false;
boolean isInKey = false;
try {process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("getevent -p");} catch (IOException e) {}
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(process.getInputStream());
try
{
while (true)
{

Message = in.readLine();
if (Message.indexOf("(") >= 0)
isInKey = false;
if (Message.indexOf("KEY (0001):") >= 0)
isInKey = true;

if (isInKey && Message.indexOf("0110") >= 0)
{
deviceFound = true;
break;
}
Parts = Message.trim().split(" ");
if (Parts.length <4) continue;
if(Message.indexOf("add device") >= 0){
curDevice = Parts[3];
}

}
}
catch(Exception a){}
if (!deviceFound)
{
curDevice="NONE";
Log.e("Mouse","No Mouse Found!");
}
else
Log.i("Mouse","Mouse Found At: " + curDevice);
return curDevice;
}

This works for the two mice I have that generate events, Logitech Wireless USB Mouse, and a generic PS2 -> USB adaptor. For some reason, my Razr Naga doesn't even generate events.
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
Okay, I felt that this warranted a doublepost. If not, sue me.

I've made this APK for mouse support.

Known issues:

Mouse cursor is slow

Android doesn't create events for all mice, so not all mice are compatible. Simple mice have the highest chance of working.

Makes frequent calls to root when trying to find a mouse. This will drain your battery, if you plan to unplug it for a long time, I suggest opening the app and hitting stop. Maybe someone could add a timeout to it?

Can't go onto the menu bar. I don't know how to draw over that too.

Features:

Automatically detects the mouse

Automatically disables cursor when mouse is unplugged

Automatically enables cursor when mouse is replugged

Supports clicking -AND- dragging!

This may not work for everyone. If it doesn't work for you, I'm sorry. Maybe you could talk one of the other devs here into fixing it.

This may work on other tablets, I'm not sure. There is a build compiled with Froyo libs too.

This program requires root.

Attached is the source and a compiled APK. I think I did the APK right, first one I've ever made. :P

If someone could let me know if this works on bluetooth mice, that'd be awesome. I think it might, but I don't know. I don't have one, and if it doesn't, I won't be the one to add support.
[Acer Iconia A500] lpachuong:
Do you suggest to install the standard or the froyo version on Iconia? I tried the standard and it worked fine =)
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
I don't think it should matter, they both work fine for me.

Glad to hear it works!
[Acer Iconia A500] hellcat82:
Since I've already finished this I'll post it anyway, this detects the mouse by detecting which mouse input device is missing when unplugged against that of when it's plugged in (this doesn't always work with complex mouses). It also allows you to override and choose your device, in which case if it doesn't work stop the service and try another device.

I've included source which is a bit rushed and is based on the source in the original post
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
yours seems to work alot better than mine. I'ma have to peek at the source.

Must be some difference in how you draw, its really noticable in angry birds.
[Acer Iconia A500] docfreed:
Works very nicely - thanks. Is there any way to control speed and add mouse pointers?
[Acer Iconia A500] hellcat82:
Theoretically speed control wouldn't be too difficult. Just a case of multiplying the X and Y coord movements by a ratio.

Dynamically loading mouse pointers should also be possible but could take a bit more time to implement.

I'll try my hand at speed control if I get some time this week.
[Acer Iconia A500] docfreed:
Great, look forward to your work. Also, would this work with a bluetooth mouse?
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
I'm not sure if Android generates events for them (I don't have one to test on), but if it does, it's possible.
[Acer Iconia A500] jibweb:
could a trackpad on a bluetooth keyboard work thanks to this patch?
[Acer Iconia A500] willbur73:
This is working really well on my a500. Thanks a bunch! This along with my bt kybd and pocketcloud I leave the laptop at home for good.

Observations:

Lots of cursor lag when doing moderate to high level tasks

Cursor hidden behind the status bar, though clicking on the buttons still works.

Thanks again!!
[Acer Iconia A500] mohiconia:
great

brilliant !! it works well with usb keyboard and bluetooth mouse via usb hub
[Acer Iconia A500] dacket84:
Got this working with a Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse combo (1 rf receiver). Would be perfect for when hooking up the unit via HDMI to a home theater. Also I can confirm that it doesn't work with a Logitech G500 gaming mouse. lol didn't really expect that it would, but of course I had to try.
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
Nice. Glad to see it's working for most people. Has anyone tried it with a bluetooth mouse yet? I'm still curious if it works with them.

Edit: For the lag, you might be able to fix it by renicing the process and all children.
[Acer Iconia A500] stone_phalanges:
It works great. Any chance we could add support for USB gamepads, or might the tablet detect it through this apk.
[Acer Iconia A500] Shigster:
I really liked this =D

Is it possible to make the right button dedicated as a return to home button?
[Acer Iconia A500] julz:
i just read this morning that Logitech are releasing a number of peripherals for Android Honeycomb tablets including keyboards and a bluetooth mouse. I think this will work with 3.0.1 but it may require the 3.1 update. Will be interesting to see how they implement the mouse and whether a logitech driver will need to be installed.

edit: just looked it up and the mouse is only for 3.1. I thought all/most mice would work on 3.1 anyway so it's a bit of a gimmick.
[Acer Iconia A500] hellcat82:
May as well cash in on what's already being included in 3.1 right?
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
We're the only major honeycomb tablet that's stuck on 3.0.1 w/o mfgr mouse support anyways, at least that I know of.
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
Nice.. Works on mine with with an old logitech mouse. I'll try my bluetooth mouse tonight when i get home. I've tried it before (w/o this hack) and it always said "Paired but not connected". So I don't know if there's some other problem.
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
No luck on the BT mouse. But I don't think it's an issue with the mouse driver. I get stuck with, 'paired but not connected'. So it seems the current firmware just wont connect to these things.
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
That's disappointing, but not unexpected. I don't think that there's a way to bypass that that's at all worth anyones time.
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
great stuff, workss my wireless keyboard with trackball for a mouse amazing tuff
[Acer Iconia A500] buffaloquinn:
@Euclid's Brother:

Try pressing and holding down the item that says "paired not connected". Several of my bluetooth items don't connect automatically but they do once pressed like this.
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
Cool. I'll try as soon as I get back home.

Edit: didn't work :( I long pressed on it, but it doesn't do anything but keep it highlighted.
[Acer Iconia A500] phillymatt:
Thanks OP! Works great with Logitech MX518 and Iconia
[Acer Iconia A500] anubis13:

[Acer Iconia A500] yiuwing_hk:

mouse is working fine but not scrolling. loghitec nano wireless
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
No, there's no real way to implement scrolling with this.

Well, there is, but it's more work than it's really worth.
[Acer Iconia A500] Gammelgustav:
works great on FW "1.141.01_EMEA_CUS7" with Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse...

[Galaxy S II General] computermilk:
Does anyone have an ATT Sim card in this beast yet?

If so, did you need to enter any settings? like APN settings? or did you put the sim in and it picked up the signal right after that..

thanks for the help in advance.
[Galaxy S II General] David9723:
All i did was put my ATT sim in and it worked fine.
[Galaxy S II General] misticjeff:
Pulled my SIM from my Inspire 4G, put it in the SGS II and away I went!
[Galaxy S II General] computermilk:
Sweet thanks guys.

I'm going into the ATT store in a short bit, hopefully they will just add a line to my account and give me a Sim for that line i want added.

Do you think they will ask me 20 questions? like ask me WHAT type of phone i want that line added for?
[Galaxy S II General] computermilk:
you guys i called ATT and spoke with them about this they said i would need to bring my SGS2 into the store to show them the phone so they can get the IMEI number off it before activating it.. is this true?

I thought some people were able to put Medianet on this thing...

I have no idea what to do now... I mean.. HOW can I get a sim from these people without them knowing what type of phone I have.. I don't want them talking me into the 25G limited data plan... I just want them to give me a phone line and let me add the features from the website later...

=/
[Galaxy S II General] ghost77:
Never ever give ATnT your imei from international phone , you give them some dumphone to make them shut up , and be done with it. Why would you even tell them you getting Galaxy 2 :eek: whats wrong with you.
[Galaxy S II General] RMXO:
i agree, don't bring in your SGS2 phone in. Give them some BS. Don't ruin it for the rest of us & good luck.
[Galaxy S II General] krabman:
Yep, you must know someone or have an old dumbphone that you can borrow for this purpose if you must go into the store.
[Galaxy S II General] RMXO:
This is how I switched to the $10 unlimited MediaNet plan. I called in & gave my IMEI # & told him I have an old Razr phone. Told them I wanted to get the unlimited MediaNet plan. Sadly, they warned me since I had a grandfathered Smartphone plan, I would lose it & will never be able to get it back. I told them yes go ahead & cancel my old smartphone plan.

Thank you to all that suggest this idea by getting an International phone. I will save a boatload of $ that I can use towards accessories!
[Galaxy S II General] poloboogie:
Mine well be here Monday I can't wait and I got all kinds of tricks for att. Tell me this are the speeds up there with or better than the other att android phones
[Galaxy S II General] bendispo:
So should we give the actual IMEI# from our GS2 or should we give the IMEI# from a dumbphone but then put the SIM card into our GS2?

I thought the former and not the latter... but there seems to some disagreement here.

Doesn't the IMEI# you give to AT&T have to match the phone you end up using?
[Galaxy S II General] RMXO:
You tell ATT that you want to register a new phone & get rid of your old phone. Tell them you have a Razr & then give them the IMEI (your SGS2), so yes to your question about giving the IMEI of your SGS2. Ask for the unlimited MediaNet plan for $10.

I made the call using my SGS2 the whole time. You could put the SIM in the SGS2 & make the call as I did.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
My corporate AT&T rep knows I'm establishing service for my SGS2 and he put me on the Medianet plan and overnighted me a SIM. He said to call him with the IMEI so he can add it to make sure I have no future probems. The i9100 isn't and won't ever be in their database. He wanted to add the IMEI so if I'm talking to support about network issues they don't hassle me. He's a phone geek and totally gets it. YMMV.
[Galaxy S II General] bendispo:
Thanks! :)

btw, the $10 medianet plan is only if you are also paying for unlimited texting, no? Otherwise, it's $15 for data? (I plan on using google voice for texts)
[Galaxy S II General] RMXO:
I'm starting to have 2nd thoughts about switching to MediaNet because of the possible future cost for unlimited data when LTE comes out. I lost my grandfathered unlimited data plan by switching to MN.
[Galaxy S II General] MXIIA:
Wait... if AT&T doesn't have the IMEI for this phone, does that mean I could get the $10 unlimited plan for "basic and quick messaging phones" and use it with this?
[Galaxy S II General] computermilk:
You can use the medianet plan i think.
[Galaxy S II General] MXIIA:
Can anyone confirm this?

And, what are the chances that AT&T detects this and throws you onto one of their data plans?
