Hello, Ice Cream Sandwich. ;)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] stevefxp:
I didnt have the lcd parameter in my build.prop. Is that possible?

Second I added it but it does not seem to have done anything. I bumped it to 220.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Brolloks:
Under what folder is the build.prop file?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] stevefxp:
It is located under System.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Brolloks:
Cant find the line where to change the LCD density in the build file?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] stevefxp:
I didnt find it in mine, so I just added it in: ro.sf.lcd_density=220
[Xoom Themes and Apps] double1:
i just used the lcd density app.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Jewremy:
You can also add it to /data/local.prop.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bignadad:
I noticed while themeing that all the gingerbread icons where in the Xoom apks..

I guess all the density hack does is use the HDPI instead of the MDPI drawable folders

This takes it to high density from medium density.

It's all making sense to me now ;)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Brolloks:
I tried 200 and went into an infinate boot loop, had to hard boot to get out of it
[Xoom Themes and Apps] double1:
What!? I was gonna try 200 but now I'll wait.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Brolloks:
I actually would not recommend editing the build file, if you screw it up with a too high etting you will probably have to reflash it with an older image, rather use the LCD setting app, that way you can reset it
[Xoom Themes and Apps] mcarrion78:
I used the lcd density for root app off the market and changed it to 180 and 200 and got the gingerbread look. But its useless cuz it u have no access to ur back and home buttons. Once u click into n app or something ur stuck.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] double1:
Yeah, really need the physical buttons for this unless someone can code in some virtual buttons.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] coolkid893:
i just while still in honey comb when to teh market installed softkeys allowed the root use an the changed the lcd density an now i have buttons on my xoom gingerbread lmao
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vitosans:
So now its becoming much more clear as to why google does not want to release the source to HoneyComb, and would rather we wait till IceCream... there is no HoneyComb... its GingerBread with a custom launcher and Tablet hardware support... nothing more nothing less...

I only wish Google would just open source what they have so us early adopters could support our self...

oh well.

</rant>
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
Aww, don't say that...we all thought we were special having a OS completely made for tablets...

Also, since it is a custom launcher more or less that would leave one to believe that the launcher could somehow be ported to say a phone or something that is running Gingerbread.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] quordandis:
So...I used LCDDensity app....switched to 200, and went into infinite loop....hard booted and was fine. switched to 180, and went into infinite loop.....

Any thoughts?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] stevefxp:
Hard boot? I am in the infinite loop and dont know what to do.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] quordandis:
Vol-Up + Power button
[Xoom Themes and Apps] stevefxp:
Thanks but now the problem is that it took the LCD density change and I am looking at a GBread interface. I have no way of editing the prop file to push it back to default. Does anyone have a BUILD.PROP that I could use. I am betting I could ADB it over.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] qwasz123:
Download LcD density app from the market.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masantula:
Hi..

I Have a nexus one. My question is regarding the CyanogenMod Nighty and stable. whats the difference? Which one should i use? Which is better?

Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LFact:
Nightly build = Work-in-Progress version. You can try new features, but it can be buggy and less stable. Besides, there's no support provided officially.

Stable = The 'Official' version.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masantula:
great :)

Thanks a bunch, helped me out :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
FYI, the nightlies will also be the first to get major bugfixes like the wonk. That has been in the nightlies for almost a week, and they are still working on updating the stable to 7.0.4 to include it. The nightlies have also been running 2.3.4 for a couple of weeks, which was nice when the big security flaw came out that affected all versions except for 2.3.4.

Nightlies usually end up still being "stable", they just don't have any labels next to it, although occasionally there have been issues that will crop up that are usually resolved the next nightly (like earlier this week, a nightly caused the alarm app to FC whenever someone tried to set an alarm, this was resolved in the next release).

I usually stay behind on the releases, as I need my phone to be running and able to do the functions that I need. This way I can read what others are experiencing and see if it is worth upgrading to. Currently I am on #76 and I think #80 was just released.

Also, "stables" aren't always stables (which is the case in most programs). Just like with Windows, there are updates that need to be put out when security holes or major bugs are patched. But the smaller bugs will usually get fixed in the nightlies long before they ever make it to the stable.

Overall, I love the nightlies. I don't think I could go back to a stable build.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masantula:
I just checked the website and for the nighty it has #81. I understand the part of updating at night. My question is like how u said that you are on #76, so do you have to manually change to #81(by flashing and making a backup) or it automatically updates? Am confused.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
You manually update like you would a normal release of CyanogenMod. If you have the premium version of ROM Manager, it can notify you of new nightlies and you can download them through it. If you don't have it, you would manually have to download the files from http://mirror.teamdouche.net.

And I ALWAYS recommend making a backup. That way, if one of the nightlies you install is all screwed up, you just revert to the last one and wait until it is fixed bfore you flash the next verison.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
You don't really have to wipe when going to the next nightly. Just flash and all your data is in tact, just like a regular upgrade.

I suggest going with the latest nightly.
[Galaxy S II General] atomikpt:
Hi people. I got hands on this thing ;)

I think it can be usefull in someway..

I don't understand about electronics that much.. my field is medicine :)

My question is, can we build it?

Cheers.
[Galaxy S II General] MrPilipo:
Unfortunately that is not all we need. As far as I know, there is some additional circuitry in that little box.
[Galaxy S II General] 3waygeek:
That's definitely the case; I've read that MHL devices switch between MHL & USB modes based on the resistance across two pins on the 5-pin microUSB connector. So you'd need to duplicate that, and there's also some circuitry to convert the MHL video out signals to HDMI. SiliconImage makes a family of such chips.

Also, there's probably some magic involved in integrating the +5V from the microUSB charger input into the MHL connector, so as to keep the SGS2 charged while it's playing video. You'd at least want some current/voltage limiting circuitry to protect your expensive TV & phone from being zapped by a bad charger.
[Galaxy S II General] MartiniGM:
Here is a far more detailed description of the mhl adapter: http://www.wilder-tech.com/pdfs/Tektronix_MHL-TPA_User_Manual_Rev-A.pdf

:good:
[Galaxy S II General] omerwax:
MHL Cable is an active cable, meaning that there is an active circuit (Controller) within the cable, there are ways to home manufacture it, assuming that you have the required equipment and knowledge . but it just doesn't any sense. Unless you are doing it as a study case.

I am on openoptimus, and USB debugging always gets enabled after a reboot. Why is this so? What do I gain/lose by disabling USB debugging, how do I make it so that it does not get enabled after a reboot?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ppraveen576:
hello brother

First of all u have to rember that these roms are custom made by kitchen

it is like a emulutor so by default usb debuging is enabled for emergency access

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] learning_to:
I have bought a SGT and i need to know...

first, i have to get root, right ?

then the recovery then the kernel ?

cant figure out how to get de recovery working without flashing a new kernel, cause the recovery its on the new kernel.

The kernel that i have downloaded its a .tar file

The only thing that i dont know its how to flash a kernel.

Cause my old phone Xperia X10 mini has a locked Bootloader.... the rest it's easy...but i dont know how to flash the kernel, please somebody teach me how... can't find the answer u.u

Sent for my GT-P1000L using my girlfriend's PC :3
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPal:
You dont HAVE to get root? But if you want mods ir get functionality from some apps then you need to root.

What kernel did you download? Most kernels come with a guide for instance CF kernel has unstructions in the thread. But Generally kernels are flashed via ODIN through the PDA section. Make sure reparrtition is UNCHECKED. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE before you flash.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] learning_to:
Wow, that was quick !

I'm trying to flash this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=974408

And... first i need to flash the kernel.

I have a stock ROM. I plug my tab to usb (tab on), open ODIN and flash the kernel ?

WTH is download mode ?!

when i'm able to flash the kernel, i kown how to flash the rest... but til the moment, im not able to flash the kernel xd

Thanks for your quick reply ;)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPal:
Download mode is a maintenance mode that allow you to flash kernels rom radios etc via odin or otherwise. If you are on stock ROM you can go to download mode by switching your tab off and then hold down the volume down rocker with power button. If successful a yellow android robot holding a shovel will appear with warning do not switch off target.

Before flashing or connecting to ODIN. Make sure tab is identified in computer by ODIN. You get a yellow box with COM#

To flash a kernel. Put your tab into download mode. Connect your tab to pc (make sure drivers are installed before this step). Fire up ODIN and flash by selecting tar file in PDA section. Make sure Repartition is UNCHECKED AND DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE.

Here is a link with detailed instructions. Its for another kernel but the guidelines are the same and should work for your kernel: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=885734

Thanks a lot !
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPal:
Reinstall samsung drivers, make sure you run ODIN as adminstrator or use another computer (dont ask it worked for many users encountering this error.

I suggest you hold off flashing anything. Read around till you have enough knowledge and confidence to do so. Thats what I did. Good Luck!

Damn u.u
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPal:
Thats an alternative download mode. Flash the stock rom via odin (the device should still be detectable).
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] learning_to:
In fact, it is detectable

But i cant find a stock rom that works on my P1000L T-T
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPal:
Contact the dev of your kernel. Search around this forum and you will find what you are looking for.

Gotcha !

Then flash it with re-partition too ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] learning_to:

OK... my nightmare its finished.

But, already cant install the custom kernel haha, it fails in the end of the process.

Anyhow, thanks a lot for your wisdom, my friend :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kraistus:
I just want to add to all noobs (myself included) who are thinking about installing custom ROM's/kernel's for the first time, that they look/read closely at the overcome custom ROM -thread.

There is a extremely detailed guide to installing the custom ROM (thanks to pittbull). No need to understand what you are doing :-D , you just have to follow the instructions given. That's how I did it.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPal:
Its not only for noobs. I had to consult it to fix a few issues myself. Really great guide.

Oops, sorry. You are right. Didn't notice that one.

But AFAIK the process would be the same, you just gonna have to use different files(ROM) accordingly, for your device. Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong...
[Galaxy Tab General] aryuautku:
I'm fed up of dusts under the screen, every product I buy seems to get it after some time.

I'm sure it didn't have this issue out of the box, as I would have realized. Today, my screen got dirty after playing around with it with greasy hands so I thought I should clean it with the microfiber cloth that came with my TV. I was cleaning it, but turns out the cloth wasn't clean either. Anyway it got even more dust on the screen, and when I cleaned the screen, there was dust under the screen that just didn't go away.

There is just 1 of them, it is only visible under direct light or when the screen is white. It is hard to see, but knowing it is there freaks me out. I don't think I can get a replacement either..

What should I do? Live with it?
[Galaxy Tab General] DarkPal:
Sadly only solution is to send it to samsung for a cleanup maintenance. Thats what i did with my phones
[Galaxy Tab General] aryuautku:
That's a solution but I don't really want to do it just for one pixel... And it's on the far bottom-right, not at a place that's easily seemable. But knowing it's there gives me OCD..
[Galaxy Tab General] fleurdelisxliv:
I WOULD HATE THAT TOO! SUCKS :eek:
[Galaxy Tab General] natious:
Are you sure its not scratches in the glass, afaik the touch screen would be glued to the digitizer like most other touch devices, so i dunno how you got dust under there.
[Galaxy Tab General] rgbc:
The dust would be between the top layer of glass and the screen, I had a piece of dust near the edge of the screen that appeared soon after I got the tab, tapped the tab on edge and the dust disappeared never to return.
[Galaxy Tab General] cgigate:
it is because the builder quality issue. the form between two layer not sealed well.

sometime the duct gets through. it is annoying issue for the phone
[Galaxy Tab General] aryuautku:
It's not at a very-obvious location, and it's really,really hard to see while using it. Now what's smitching my mind is, did it get in there or was it there all the time?
[Galaxy Tab General] atomiq:
It's a horrible experience to live with it, i lived with it for like 5 months my g2 had a lot of dust under, so what i did is sell it on craigslist, but i chose to meet at night to do the trade so he wouldnt see the dust cuz you really cant see it at night but, i sold it cheap leaving room for the guy to send it back to the factory to fix te problem, selling it could be the best shot for you because if you got dust in there will be more comming in to join the party
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
That isn't possible to get dust there. I dropped my tab and broke the wimpy gorilla glass. I replaces it and I can tell you the glue that binds the glass to the digitizer is very solidly stuck! Are you using a screen protector? Possibly there?
[Galaxy Tab General] StarLog:
How much did it cost, and how long did it take?
[Galaxy Tab General] StarLog:
I dropped my belt buckle on the tab, and got a small line about 2mm on the screen, the LCD is ok, but the top glass is cracked. I have a screen protector, might have kept it from getting bigger.
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
oops, just saw your question. $140, took twenty minutes. The parts and tools took five days to get here from China.

That gorilla glass should be renamed sissy glass. Or panty glass.

I hate those little dusts.

I've had some of them under screen protector but never under the screen itself.
[Galaxy Tab General] iCracked:
semi-related, but my ipod (not a touch, a video) has a ton of pieces of dirt underneath the glass, presumably on top of the lcd
[Galaxy Tab General] Manstanze:
Tears in my eyes!

No, not from the dust...... from the laughter induced by content of this post.

Please don't get me wrong, dust is a genuine concern, so I don't mean any offence whatsoever.

Thanks (+1) aryuautku for one of the best laughs I've had in a while

Has anyone ever used an invisible shield, they say it's better than a normal

screen protector and it's easy to install, without any dust under it.

Is that true?
[Thunderbolt General] MrHawaii:
Has anyone else noticed leftover apps or info from your previous ROM that should not be in your current ROM? I am noticing this after the GB leak and the GB leaked based ROMs.

This is my process whenever I flash a ROM.

Boot into hboot and flash radio if neccessary.

Boot existing ROM and remove radio file from root of SD card.

Boot into recovery and clear data/factory reset. Wipe cache. Wipe Dalvik. Wipe battery stats. Fix permissions.

Flash ROM in recovery.

Flash kernel in recovery if neccessary.

(I don't use any type of app backup like Titanium or something like that. I just don't mind putting my apps back on because I don't have much to begin with.)

Now some examples, I flashed Teslacoil which I was running for about a week. It has a file manger app that I did not download. Then I flashed dhemke17's plain debloated GB ROM. The File Manager app remained in there which I thought was a little weird because he didn't say he was going to include it but I didn't pay much attention to it.

Then I flashed jcases GB ROM and played with it a little and noticed I couldn't lock GPS for the weather clock. Flashed back to dhemke's ROM and couldn't get a lock with the clock either but the first time it locked fine.

It seems like to me when flashing between other chef's roms it may be carrying over apps and/or info. This might be why we have been seeing extremes from both sides of some have been having great experiences and others it doesn't work for them at all.

Maybe flashing back to stock first before flashing to a new rom may he in order, I know we had to do that with some of the old skool winmo phones (remember those days?).

Anyhow, has anyone noticed these types of instances. Those of you who may be flashing to another's rom try to take notice and see if anything carries over.

Thanks gang!

And just to be sure, I do a wipe everytime I flash someone else's ROM.
[Thunderbolt General] MrHawaii:
This also might be why some devs have been seeing their work in others Roms without being given credit.

Just guessing on this one.
[Thunderbolt General] MrHawaii:
I also noticed, I don't like Sense so I normally change some of files to get a Sense-reduced experience from the GB Roms since we don't have a Senseless GB rom yet. I use Root Explorer to change the extension to .bak, when flashing the rom and doing this process for the new rom it would have the new file and still have the .bak file. So it would have like a Rosie.APK file and a Rosie.APK.bak file.
[Thunderbolt General] bowtieduece:
I've also noticed something similar.. I also wipe on every install even updates to the rom i'm currently running. What I noticed is that after about five to ten minutes the wallpaper will change back to a custom one that I have saved on my sd card. Also when I turn on wifi it still remembers my password and connects to my network. to me if it isn't wiping these things it may not be wiping things that will conflict with any changes to my rom.

Now what I do is wipe data factory reset 3x, wipe cache, wipe davlick 2x, wipe battery stats ..thats clears out the issue I explained above.
[Thunderbolt General] travishamockery:
To my knowledge that is just the built in restore Froyo has. You probably click to allow Google to store/backup your apps on setup, right?
[Thunderbolt General] jcase:
Built in restore or you are not wiping.

Devs are seeing their work elsewhere because "devs" are asses.

Sent from my LG Revolution
[Thunderbolt General] MrHawaii:
OK so why am I seeing the .bak files when I change roms? It only does it from the rom right before it. Like I said I flashed from Tesla to dhemke and it had the file manager app. Then I flashed to your rom this was your first GB leak. It did not have the file manager but the weatherclock was not finding my current location. I flashed back to dhemke and this time there was no file manager app and weatherclock would not find current location. Flashed back to Tesla then back again to your rom jcase because you updated yours and file manager was there and weatherclock locked.

If the devs are being asses that's fine I was just throwing that out there, but I am sure our phones are not complete wiping when going from gb rom to gb rom. Like I said I wipe everything everytime because I don't have much crap to begin with and I am used to reinstalling my crap from the winmo days.

Try to flash and see if anything carries over.

And the wallpaper and wifi settings like others suggested is from your g account.
[Thunderbolt General] skaterpunk0187:
This happens when you don't wipe and clear cache
