[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krex:
Hi,

I would like to use supercurios's color calibration tool to change my colors back to vibrant. But I want to preserve the possibility for getting future OTA update. Or if it is not possible with custom kernel then the chance to revert back stock kernel easily at least.

My Nexus is

Hardware: i9020T SAMOLED

ROM: completely stock 2.3.4 (no rooted, no unlocked bootloader)

Baseband: I9020XXKD1

Kernel: 2.6.35.7-ge382d80 android build@apa28 #1

BuildNr: GRJ22

I read a lot of threads and I'm now pretty confused what I really need to do this and what kernel is for this??

Please help me and give me a step-by-step guide what should I do to use color calibration tool?

Thank you!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krex:
please anyone, at least let me know if it is impossible!

thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkVis:
First of all you need to get clockworkmod recovery. Then you flash a kernel's zip file through cwm. Any kernel in the Nexus S android dev section has supercurio's color mod included, then you can download the Voodoo control app in the market to set your color preference. Hope that helps. :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krex:
first of all thank you for response

can I install CWM onto 2.3.4 as it is described for 2.3 in stickies? Any kernel is good for receiving and install OTA?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkVis:
1. yes you can,

2. i think so but im not entirely sure. havent been to stock since a week after i got my nexus s. :)

if you want to be as close to stock but getting the extra features of a custom rom, i suggest you flash an AOSP (andoird open source project) based custom rom. :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krex:
Thanks for help! :-)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkVis:
You're welcome :)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacobbones:
I just bought a Gtab and I have flashed it to vegan 5.1.1 and did the market fix for it.

I wanted to purchase an app, but just wanted to make sure that there aren't any problems with the security of credit card info.

Im just wondering if since its a custom made rom is it safe etc.

thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schettj:
You can always go to https://market.android.com/ on the desktop, buy it there, and "send" it to your device.

The market uses google checkout, so going to http://checkout.google.com/ on a desktop browser, signing in, and setting up your cc info will allow you to purchase on the market from the device.

It's likely safe to update the market directly on the device with your CC info, but I'd just stick to the web interface if I were worried about such things.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spike1985:
Noob-Alert here!

I downloaded a new Maps.apk and a new Calender App to my Overcome 2.0.0b2 GT-P1000 but it always says "not installed" in the end of the install-process of both apps. How do I make it replace other original apps? "Googled" the XDA but did not find the answer...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipit:
You have to copy them physically to the system/apps folder using something like 'Root Explorer' or similar.

Backup or rename the old ones just in case.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssserpentine:
Get an app from the market that removes sytem apps.

Back up the app before uninstal.

Uninstal.

Return to app you had problems instaling and try again.

Enjoy!

Hit the thanks button if i have helped.

is anyone having wifi issues where games disconnect and downloads have to be restarted alot?
[Xperia Play General] AndroHero:
Its neva happened to me using wifi, are you using other things at the same time? PS3? PC? I know my xbox tends to disconnect if im downloading somthing on the pc :)
[Xperia Play General] mrtraveler:
Having the same issue

I don't have to be downloading anything, the phone could just be sitting there and the WIFI disconnects even with a app like SKYPE running in the back ground. My current internet is 20 meg down with 4 meg up and of all the devices this is the only one that disconnects or has any kind of connection issues.
[Xperia Play General] nelly_boy:
Happens about 10 times a day. So annoying :(
[Xperia Play General] Red_Kop:
Yes, I get this with my PLAY.

No other devices have this problem in my house. Stable connection that is on all the time.

Really annoying in Rainbow 6, particulary since it doesn't seem to save your stats with you disconnect because of a Wi-Fi droput.

Also sometimes have problems when it comes out of sleep mode, have to turn off wifi, then on again on the PLAY.

Very annoying.
[Xperia Play General] kupo5131:
Could it be to do with the security settings on your routers? Mines set to WPA2 PSK with a 13 character password and its never dropped connection. Or could it be the make of your routers? Mines a Netgear router. If a few people post there setup maybe we can find a similarity between them and find out if it's the phone, router, setup or all of them that's the problem.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
The distance you are to the router makes a big difference. I think the wifi receiver on the play is weaker then other devices.
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
Yes. I havent updated yet, I'm hoping that 2.3.3 will fix it.

It says I'm connected yet stops working. I have to turn off the wi-fi then turn it back on to get it working again.
[Xperia Play General] ncaissie:
I have the same security on mine. The router is wireless n from my provider. It ie a router modem in one.
[Xperia Play General] TheBassman369:
I did back when I was on 2.3.2. It was so annoying. I could have 2 computers, an iPad, and my Play connected to the same router and only the Play would disconnect continually.

adb shove iPad2post.apk to /forum/thread
[Xperia Play General] eoga:
I have the same problem with 2.3.3 the wifi just keep disconnecting is really annoying. Does any one know if this is a bug or a real design or hardware problem that wont be fixed wit updates?
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
It's wifi range isn't as far reached as other devices.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
I've recently rooted my Desire Z and flashed Virtuous G-lite on it. One thing I really miss is an FM Radio app like the one of HTC Sense. I'm really searching for an app that receives FM, and not streams it over the internet.

I've searched the market but I haven't found anything, XDA forums had lots of hits but nothing that resolved my issue.Then I got a suggestion someone might be able to make an APK out of the Sense FM Radio.

So basically my question: Is there an app which alows me to receive FM Radio in the market? Or could anyone please wrap up an .apk from stock HTC Sense so I could try that out? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] mprost:
take a look at Spirit FM Radio
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pmcqueen:
here is the fm.apk from cyanogen. I assume it works on other aosp roms, but I've been wrong (many a time) before.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Bigt2003:
Awesome, I like this radio more the CM's.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
Thanks for posting! Installing works fine, but the app FC's on launch, even after reboot, might need some work before it works on G-lite :)

Thanks for the heads up, app installs and launches, but after selecting an FM frequency there is no sound or any sign of receving anything.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pmcqueen:
poo. make sure permissions are correct.

I don't ever use the FM radio so I'm not really familiar with how it works or if it relies on files outside of the apk to work. I do know that it requires bluetooth & headphones (headphones are used as antenna).

let me do some digging and I'll post back if I find anything.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
I haven't got Root Explorer, but ROM Manager had a button Fix Permissions that should fix it too. After that I rebooted (ROM Manager suggested that), I enabled bluetooth, plugged in my headphones and still get instant FC when launching the app.

I will get back to it tomorrow, thanks for helping!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pmcqueen:
yes, rom mgr fix permissions works as well. I just hate using it because most of the time I only need to fix permissions for one or two apps at a time, and in that case it's easier to just know the chmod command (see below).

how did you "install" the app? did you place it on your sdcard and install it that way? or did you push it to /system/app (or /data/app)?

here's what I would do with it (I will test with g-lite when I get home tonight and let you know if it worked for me):

I would take the FM.apk attached and place it on my sdcard, then run the following commands from command prompt (you can do this from terminal emulator as well, just skip "adb shell"):

in your case, my first step would be to find wherever FM.apk put itself (probably /data/app depending on what you did to install it), delete it, and start from scratch.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] jayb222:
Why don't you just use tune in radio? It gets a ridiculous amount of stations and doesn't need headphones for an antenna. Try it!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
Tune In streams from internet, since I have a 1GB/month datalimit I really need FM to keep my data usage under 1GB/month.

Pmcqueen: I will try that first thing in the morning!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
If I try mount -o rw,remount /system/app I just get feedback Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o] [-t] device directory. As far as I can tell the comma shouldn't be in the command, but what the command should be then I don't know :(

(My terminal has Superuser rights)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pmcqueen:
try just

mount -o rw,remount /system

(no /app, but since it is a subdirectory it will inherit the r/w access)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
Still the same message, I know for sure the terminal has SU because the $ changes to # after I type 'SU'.

Thanks for helping once again :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pmcqueen:
well darn it.

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

^^ should get system mounted as read/write.

if not, do you have root explorer? we can do it that way as well, it's just faster to use terminal emulator/adb if it's not being tempremental.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
So back at home once again, I tried the same commands from CMD and I'm getting the same message. I really don't know what's going on, it seems like the command isn't correct because it returns the possible options. Google hasn't come up with any suggestions too..

EDIT: Lol you posted at the time I was making this post, I will try what you said. I don't have root explorer, yet, let's see if your suggestion works, else I will need to find myself a copy of that root explorer :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
# su

su

# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

# mv /sdcard/FM.apk /system/app/

mv /sdcard/FM.apk /system/app/

failed on '/sdcard/FM.apk' - Cross-device link

#

Seems like your suggestion worked, but then moving the FM.apk failed. Any hints on that? Google tells me something about unmounted devices, but I can't find any solutions..
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pmcqueen:
try just copying it instead. I saw this come up once before and I know a [very lengthy] workaround, but since it doesn't hurt to have a backup on your sdcard in the first place, might as well just copy...

just replace "mv" in the command with "cp"

let me know if that works or not.

edit: also, try adding busybox to the beginning of your command... ie:

busybox cp /sdcard/FM.apk /system/app

or

busybox mv /sdcard/FM.apk /system/app
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
Thanks, the busybox command did the trick. All commands execute perfectly now, but the FM radio still ain't working. Instant FC on launch (Bluetooth turned on and headset plugged in)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] forbit:
i also flashed virtous g-lite, but psx4droid can not load game with this rom. so i have to back to cm now. do you use psx4droid? how about its performance? pls let me kown.thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
Well I got Root Explorer, it looks usefull and I have used it with pleasure already. But moving/copying the FM.apk, it still doesn't work.

Anyone any thoughts? :(
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Aneelll:
Guys, are you sure G2 has got the hardware inside to pull radio signals? i never thought it had.. o'wise we would have got a stock radio icon or something like that... But if DZ has got but G2 ain't , then ignore my comment :D
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
Yeah I'm sure. On the HTC Stock ROM it has an stock FM Radio app. Now I'm on G-lite which is a G2 ROM, but the hardware is still there.. Thanks for thinking with us anyway :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Daddyroot:
need the system libs

I was just looking for the system libs

(thats what we are missing)

they are usually easy to spot by scrolling a roms /system/lib that has FM.apk;

but the Virtuous Fusion and latest CM don't have any that stand out at me and say radio; like the ones for my Mytouch4g and Nexus did.

In short,

we need the correct lib(FMradio).so

of course, it isn't called that.

hope someone finds it before the Braves game is over ;)

hope that helps
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pmcqueen:
this is what I thought as well, but like you I haven't been able to find anything. FWUFF.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] 313dash:
Here's a different radio apk I hope it works! http://db.tt/xdh8uQY I gotta thanks HTC Clay for the apk again!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Puffballofdoom:
Too bad, that one doesn't work either 313dash. Thanks anyway :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] cri-cri16:
Same problem here. I'm looking for a FM radio app which could work on my Desire Z with Virtuous Lite installed on it. Anything new since 2011 ? :)

[Acer Iconia A500] spades:
I was able to play a 2gb+ 720p flawlessly from my 4gb Kingston thumb drive. AVI using Moboplayer.

The Good

Gotta love widgets

Love the USB port

I did a little side-by-side with the StevePad...

Small font in a web page is easier to read than on iPad2 (my girlfriend's)

The back camera takes better pictures than iPad

The Bad

Picture colours are a little washed next to iPad

The cross-hatch pixel pattern can be seen on white backgrounds, not so much on the iPad

GUI still not as smooth as iPad...but close

The Ugly

GPS takes forever to lock - some workarounds

No ad-hoc networks allowed - but there's a fix for that

Activesync not supported, or OWA via native browser (or Dolphin) but Firefox works

I love the Iconia but Honeycomb could be a little more polished. Can't wait for updates cuz I want to keep this tab.

Hope the great developers here stick with this model for a bit.

EDIT: I traded my A500 in for another and no more cross-hatch pixel pattern!!
[Acer Iconia A500] sgdossey:
i had a 4GB or so mkv that a played from USB via mobiplayer. It made me use software to decode hence very choppy. 720p. Just a silly test to see what would happen. Love the USB.

As far as video codecs, all Tegra 2 devices are cursed with poor codec support, thus poor hardware acceleration support. Nvidia talks a lot of media smack, but does not support the chipset to back it up.
[Nook Color Android Development] GMPOWER:
*ALL THE USUAL DISCLAIMERS AND WARNINGS*

*This is for the nook color version 1.2.0 only, don’t try on any other version or device*

What it does:

This kernel should fix the “installation error unknown reason-18” error that currently keeps apps from properly installing from the Android or Amazon markets, such as Angry Birds and Airport Mania.

This kernel will also allow you to install apps to your SD card and back to your NC from within app manager. The kernel is 100% stock, except for what it took to fix this problem, stock volts and clock.

Known Problems:

None of yet. I just finished building the kernel, but have been able to install around 75 apps, 20 of them had experienced the “unknown reason-18” error before I installed the kernel. I was able to move apps back and forth from the SD card without any problems.

Consider this to be in the beta stage.

How to Use:

1.	Download the attached file *MD5 4c188079b543f7e5823379461b35e753 *

2.	Place the file “Nook_Kernel_Fix-signed.zip” onto your SD card

3.	Install the zip with ClockworkMod Recovery

4.	Report any problems that you have related to this

If you use this kernel in your own work, please just give me credit for the work that I did.
[Nook Color Android Development] GMPOWER:
reserved for future use
[Nook Color Android Development] do_9999:
now if we could get this fix for the 1.1ghz overclock kernel i'd be a happy camper.
[Nook Color Android Development] GMPOWER:
If it passes the test for about two weeks, then I will release the code for all developers so that we can make that happen for you. I just did not want anything to come between testing the core function of the kernel fix.
[Nook Color Android Development] doncaruana:
Can someone post a list of problematic apps? I'd be happy to test it out but I haven't had any problems since Angry Birds.
[Nook Color Android Development] yoopyoop:
The ones I always had this issue with were the 3 different flavors of Angry Birds and also Aldiko. I assume it happens with any app that defaults to install on the SD card, which are probably mainly games or other large apps.
[Nook Color Android Development] magicland:
Which version of market does this work with? Any chance it gets the 2.xx versions to work with 1.2?
[Nook Color Android Development] GMPOWER:
This will work with any version of the market. This is more of a single system fix, not just market.

The official Google Froyo release was designed with A2SD (Apps2sd). Google did it this way to help protect apps from things like piracy. B&N decided they did not want to include this option into their release. I have added the needed information into the kernel to allow A2SD to work. This fix allows you to now move apps back and forth from the SD card using the app manager option in nook tools.
[Nook Color Android Development] robjective:
I had this problem with my wife's NC Sunday and I think these are the apps I had trouble with:

Tank Recon 3D (Lite)

Aldiko Book Reader

RuniK

Angry Birds

Angry Birds Rio

Airport Mania Free (I think)

I applied the patch, uninstalled Tank Recon 3D Lite, and reinstalled. The reinstall was successful.

It actually is a bit faster...
[Nook Color Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
How'd you get it to install without the Nook Boot looping?
[Nook Color Android Development] pavlos46:
Yep and its actually not that difficult.

I just used Titanium backup to unistall the 10.1 version and appstrore to install the 10.3 version as it didn't come up in normal market.

Pavlos
[Nook Color Android Development] pavlos46:
Actually the first time it boot looped but I let it cycle once the second time it went through and had no issues since then.

Of course I can also install angry birds and other apps directly from market or titanium without issue so I am not sure if that has any effect.

Pavlos
[Nook Color Android Development] pavlos46:
Actually did some more testing and it apears that angry birds are installed on the SD and actually was able to move apps to SD.

I currently am manual nootered with an OC applied. If I flash this will I lose the OC? If I apply this to a non-overclocked setup, can I then flash an OC without losing this improvement? Since I'm running a dual boot, I will probably just start over with my setup unless I can find the patch for the second boot position. Thanks for the mod.
[Nook Color Android Development] doncaruana:
Now that this has been blessed and rolled into MN, is the code available for other devs? Was wondering if dalingrin had it and maybe he could create an updated OC kernel.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
AFAIK, I have had this fixed since early May. I believe I fixed this in my first 2.6.32 release.
[Nook Color Android Development] doncaruana:
Wow. So, potentially, if someone used MN 4.5.25, they could then drop your stock OC kernel over top of it and lose nothing.

Would be nice if someone (GMPOWER?) could confirm that for us. Maybe I should have posted on the MN thread instead. Not sure how many of the recent fixes are kernel based and how many are apk based.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Right. I should have let the manual nooter people know about the fix a long time ago but I didn't realize that people using MN were having trouble with APP2SD support.

How cool! I posted over there and asked them to confirm already though. But you rock Dal!!!
