Do we know how/when Kies checks for updated firmware? Is there a way of making it check (there's a "Check for updates" option in the Help menu, but that seems to just talk about updates for Kies itself)?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xrules:
I think it checks when you connect the device and kies recognizes it..

as it shows in the general tab after some time if any update is available!!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince-soso:
Hello everybody

I rooted My Galaxy S II

the games are : Assassins Creed , Shrek and Asphalt 6

when i open them i got black screen.

is it because of the root ?

or is there any problem on my devise?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beards:
No problem with the device... Have you paid for the Apps?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cigaro78:
You say that, but a lot of people who paid for the gameloft games and also xplane would disagree. See the thread re: mali and textures.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stitch!:
Shrek and asphalt are working perfectly here. I originally bought them for the SGS1 copied the download files to the SGS2 and asphalt worked right away.

Shrek however was not working, so I googled a newer apk and it worked.

I copied both data maps as well, and didnt lose any save games^^

(I know I am supposed to buy them again when I switch device, but at least I bought them initially.)

Dont know about assasins creed, but gameloft has recently updated most of their games to work on sgs2 so if you buy/update the new version it should work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beards:
Do not think for a second just because you alter your original post you will get away with it this way.

You have downloaded paid Apps illegally using Applanet.

1. You should not be asking for help using paid software you have not paid for.

2. Programs such as Applanet do not always work correctly, hence why you are experiencing problems.

Simple answer support the developers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaBlo:
I would disagree, they can't expect you to buy the game again every time you switch phones.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince-soso:
OK guys

I know i was wrong

I will buy everything i need and remove these apps .. i promise

thank you for explaining that to me

i tried to buy som of them but i didnt find way to pay by mobile bill ...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beards:
Much better...

I would now recommend you don't ask for any further support for this topic as it is only asking good members to help in piracy.

It would be beneficial if our resident Moderator AllGamer could now either close or better delete this topic.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spike378:
ok I just switched from mytouch. The app2sd worked there alright. However, I cant get apps to install on on sd card on nexus one.

I formated to ext4 512mb, sawp 0. I set app to install external in cyanogenmod settings. I dont see any other option for app2sd in cyanogen mod7 nightly?

The apps just keep installing to internal memory!!

I even try flashing DT app2sd and samething happens. Am I missing something here?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Once you install DT, just open a terminal emulator and type in "a2sd reinstall".

Alternatively, you could type "a2sd cachesdreset", which will also move your dalvik to sd (much better).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
With the "external" command, this will install the apps into the .android_secure folder on the root of the sdcard. This folder is locked by Android, so you can't view the contents. You can find out which apps are installed to the sdcard by looking at the sdcard tab under Settings -> Applications. But this only installs a portion of the app (some apps, it is the majority, others, not so much), but all the data the app generates will still be on the internal memory, so you will continue to see it go down.

And I don't think danger-rat meant alternatively (maybe he did) with DT and cachesdreset, but you can actually do both of those, and that is what most people do.

a2sd reinstall will move all your apps onto the sdcard's ext partition. a2sd cachesd (or cachesdreset which erases all the dalvik cache requiring a rebuild when the phone boots back up) will move all the dalvik cache to the sdcard's ext partiton. I have both done on my phone and leave the internal memory for just the data that the apps generate (it is possible to move that to the sd as well, but it is recommended to have a class 10 sdcard).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N1_Fan:
Need to have install set to internal. DT used ext partition as "internal" memory.

So its starting to annoy me. Does anyone else have an issue with whatever launcher they use it kind if restarts when hitting the home bbutton from an app? I've noticed it with GB launcher adw, xperia launcher. Its annoying because I hit the home button it freezes for a second and I have to wait for my app drawer to load.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveyBB:
Yup... happens to me on any launcher but not after every app-it seems random. I am assuming that Android is killing it to manage memory and then I restarts when home is pressed or I back out of an application to the home screen. Btw, I am running GR-11.

Thats what I'm thinking. Yeah its not after every app close. Is there anyway we can change it so the os doesn't kill it off?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slntdth93:
I have the "prevent force-closes" options checked in launcherpro and it usually doesnt close off the homescreen. In the off chance it does close, the launcher needs to rebuild the app drawer etc etc.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skippyg:
Did some more research.

It fixed it for me completely just go into the terminal app (if you don't have one get it from the market), Continnum 5.4.1 came with it.

use this command.

Hey all,

Im looking at getting the TF with the dock but not sure if i should get it here in the UK or get it in US and have it shipped. The reason I'm thinking of the US is for 2 reasons:

1. Cheaper

2. Better updates (they seem to have more features?)

While I know it will be a longer wait for it to be available properly in the US, it might be worth it.

What do you guys think?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilbur-force:
id suggest the UK. There are various problems that mean you may need to return/exchange it ....

(mine still has something rattling around inside it)

once the ROM community kicks in and the ASUS updates settle down im guessing that updates will come via custom ROMs as opposed to waiting for official ones to filter to the UK.

i updated my recovery with this version from j_r0dd (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=988686).

Then installed CM7.0

when CM 7.0.2 came out i wiped and formated everything and then installed CM 7.0.2

but when i reinstalled rom manager and tried to flash the recovery to make ROM manager work (if you dont flash using their program you can't use it) it says it can't flash my recovery (probably because i have a more up-to-date recovery), so i can't use ROM Manager, i can't to a nanbackup etc.

how can i make ROM manager accept my recovery version, or how can i let rom manager flash my recovery with its own version so that i can get it to work ?

Hello All,

as I cannot post in the "[ROM]LeeDrOiD V3.0.6-R2 GB 12th May | Android 2.3.3 | A2SD | FAST | STABLE | TV | WWE" Thread I will try it here.

I just updated to LeeDroid 3.0.6R2 and everything works fine (as usual with Lee'S ROM). The only thing I noticed now is that the mail app link on the home screen does not show me the unread mail count any more. When a new message arrives it shows it on the icon but when I open the mail app and close it again the icon does not show anything else.

Hello,

Before everything:

I have a SGS with Android 2.2.1 JPY, rooted 2 months ago with 1click or something like that

It all happend yesterday... I was talking at the phone for aprox 2 minutes when my phone started vibrating... I sad ok, maybe some app just crashed, it happens. After i closed the call, my phone didn't respond to any command (any kind of button, power button nothing).

So i tought ok, a good old pull the battery out reset should do the trick. After restarted the phone... what could i see... the settings (with google account and sht appeard) and my background changed :confused:

Then i started receiving messages from A LOT of apps the i had installed (Titanium Backup, Color Note, so on...) that they crashed. My contacts are gone too (recovered them in the end), and it seems i can only use 5% of my installed apps (basicly the ones that come preinstalled with android).

What should i do ? Did someone else have this problem ?

I am not so old but even then wanted more options in notification bar so can it be customized to slide left & right & have more items to display by user choice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlockhart:
There is no way that I know of to make the notification bar wider... if you want to increase the size of icons you can get a custom launcher from the market eg. launcher pro or adw launcher(you will need to get the paid versions), this will allow you to click and hold onto WIDGETS to resisze them

I know not every icon you use is/has a widget, so if you get desktop visualizer(free in market) it adds widgets to the size you want and you can like it to other widges, shortcuts apps and more

does take some time to get use to it... here is a link to some phones that used this method to make larger icons... they did use custom icons put you can use regular app icons

Anyone know if this is possible?

Basically I want to watch live tv on my xoom. I want to pull the signal straight from the airwaves and not use 3g or wifi etc. Anyone know any device that would do this for me? Basically something I could just plug-in and be able to watch live tv?
[Xoom Accessories] PengLord:
First, you'll need a tuner (mini PCI-E or USB) Then you'll need drivers to use that tuner, possible that a major tuner mfg could write them but then Google or a dev will need to build them into a distro. Finally, you need an app that can interpret the data received from the tuner.

The likelihood of all of these things coming together is unlikely due to the small market for such a tuner. I, personally, would love it.
[Xoom Accessories] DANOinSD:
TV on Xoom

I realize this is not the config you are looking for, but I purchased a DVR like box called a Vulkano made by Monsoon and basically it goes between your TV and the Cable box (and to your router). It then provides a feed to an app for android (free and/or paid) and tt literally controls your cable box remotely, and you can watch live TV, your saved shows, setup recordings, record to your device, etc.

I've tested on my Evo, Xoom, and A7, which all work.

However, the recent update to 3.1 caused the Xoom version to not work anymore, but the developers said a fix is coming soon.

While I was on 3.0 the HD channels on the Xoom were F-ing sweet!

The box was about $150, but there are multiple versions, and I bought this on a whim hoping it would just do DVR type functions, but went well beyond that.

I've run it over wifi, 3g, and tethered to 3g, and all have worked very well.

Again, maybe not the config you want, but this is nothing short of AWESOME!!
[Xoom Accessories] malaeus:
isnt that kind of like "slingbox" and how did you get it to work with 3g?
[Xoom Accessories] DANOinSD:
TV on Xoom

Pretty much exactly like Slingbox (I think, never used it), just cheaper and they have a free App for Android and Apple. There's a paid App version, but didn't bother since the freebie worked good for me. I use it on my Evo and eLocity A7 all the time via 3g and/or Tether. And until the HC 3.1 update I was able to use it on my Xoom via 3g. If you get a good signal or go wifi it will stream in HD, and looks killer on the Xoom. But alas, the developer needs to update it for HC 3.1, impatiently waiting for that!

Also I found that if you record thru the App, it stores it locally on whatever device you are using. I often use it on my PC, and then save it to my NAS drive for remote access later.

Like I said before, I was trying this out as a maybe option, and was totally stoked at what I got for $150, I think the slingbox doesn't quite do all this, and costs like twice as much for the Pro, and you still have to pay $25 for their App.

There is also 6 versions of the hardware to fit your budget and needs.

[Xoom Accessories] Kcarpenter:
They had talked about a version of the Samsung Moment that would do this, not sure if it ever came state side or not. But that could take care of the tuner software side, then you would need a device and a driver, I remember having a winTV device at one point in time that worked in ubuntu with out any extra work...so there's definitely linux support for the type of device.

[Xperia Play General] crispyduckling:
you made afew valid points there about the play

i agree the low brightness makes the screen look dull

and the stock launcher well.... thats was the 1st thing i changed when i got mine

there is a fix the the brightness now on xda

and as soon as custom roms come out that when things will really get cooking

overclocking/custom launchers maybe zoom and hd video recording

and i think that the play has dual channel memory so maybe thats why its quicker?
[Xperia Play General] AndroHero:
I have a DHD, the desire s's big brother, and there is no way the 8mp camera on the DHD is better than the 5mp camera on my play, so unless HTC has done some magic, i dont see how the desire s's 5mp camera can even compare.
[Xperia Play General] FK1983:
All I did was take pictures of the same things in my garden in daylight using both cameras, auto and macro, I then copied to the PC and looked closely at both, the file size of the Plays images are almost half of that of the HTC's images, the quality of the both are pretty much the same though,

Maybe someone more into the camera department will be able to tell the differences better but for me (and my girlfriend) there was no difference!

P.S, the Desire HD uses a different camera lens than that in the Desire S, just checked, this could explain it.
[Xperia Play General] FrAsErTaG:
your reference to screen may be valid in a dark room or at night

But the Play is the best screen in direct sunlight, ive owned many many many smart phones and the play is at the top of the list for day light visibility.

I think the Play is terrible in direct sunlight. The colours & glare are awful.

My old Hero was better.
[Xperia Play General] AndroHero:
The screen on the hero was awsome, and the resolution looked great for only being HVGA
[Xperia Play General] -josh-:
The only thing I would want to compare is the gaming as thats the main reason I own a play (apart from also being a phone lol). And as you said the gaming kicks ass on the play. I dont really care about the camera I own a digi camera for that lol.

The only things I dont like about the play are the internal storage and build quality which I do find a bit poor and for that reason I now have insurance for the first time. But as its a kind of first generation in this type of dedicated gaming phone I think its a quality attempt by SE.

Overall its the best phone ever imo, the first phone I truly prefer to an iphone in tems of entertainment value and its got me really excited about future SE play phones

Just wanted to add my 2 pennies :-)
[Xperia Play General] FK1983:
I agree, the Play is near on impossible to see in direct sunlight, outdoors on a normal day it is JUST about readable to me, about the same as my old iphone 4 outdoors.

After testing the Desire S I was VERY tempted to send the Play back and get a Desire S as its a great little phone, but the reason I got the play was mainly for gaming and because of the gamepad.

I just wish the screen wasn't so faded and colors so poor compared to most other android phones out there. :(
[Xperia Play General] carmeng4evr:
lol that wasn't biased at all ha

i'm not sure the desire s was the best device to review with it
[Xperia Play General] FK1983:
The only other ones I could have compared was the galaxy s, iphone 4 or desire S :p
[Xperia Play General] FrAsErTaG:
I still reckon the screen looks great outside in the sun and is very visible vs most the phones out there...
