Any ideas?

Are you sure that you have a good OTG host cable?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mradlauer:
Yea good cable...tested it with a usb stick and an ntfs hd.

I think it might be my X...sometimes it reboots when I plug in usb while debug is on. Ill have to play with it more later I guess.

By the way, the only place that I havr to turn on usb tether is in the easy tether pro app...that is what the instructions refer to correct?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
I don't think so. If you are rooted and running a custom ROM you should be able to enable native tethering. Go to > Settings > Wireless and networks > Tethering & portable hotspot > USB tethering. That's how I do it on my Incredible running Cyanogenmod 7.0.3. I guess on the X, you have a lot less flexibility on ROMs?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mradlauer:
Ahhh I don't have native tethering at all...I think it goes away when you remove the hotspot app. I'm on a stock rom so I guess I'm stuck for now. Ill have to livr with wifi for the moment lol...

Now to get hfsplus working!

This mod seems to greatly improve initial lock and accuracy for many. Basically, what this does is forces AGPS, changes the server to supl.nokia.com which is much more reliable than google, and some other tweaks. Some users report better results by toggling different settings. Give it a try and post your findings, YMMV.

Instructions: (must be rooted, not CWM flashable)

1) Replace or edit your gps.conf file with the attacmment below. Don't forget to back-up your old one.

2) In LBSTestMode change or verify:

>Operation Mode: MS Based

>SUPL/CP Settings: Server:supl.nokia.com, Port:7275, Secure Socket:OFF, AGPS Mode:SUPL

3) Reboot

4) Making sure GPS, wifi (if available),

and data

are active, fire up GPS Test or Maps.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
i never tried the nokia server but it makes total sense. nokia holds many of the patents that gps uses, seems they'd have a good supl server. also secgps.conf on my phone was set to ms based. first things i did was change it to standalone and tested it, good result not having 2 configurations, then i tried ms based for lbs and secgps.conf and it works amazingly well, maps always performs funky if the secgps.conf and lbs settings dont match, could be the "gps issues" people report on many phones. ill have to try the nokia server now. should try that on the captivate as well.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] FricoRico:
Hey devs,

I wondered.. Why aren't there any overclocked kernels out there yet? Surely we want this baby to run as it should with a nice overclock. I mean, after seeing the news of the Xoom beeing overclocked to 1.7Ghz I kind of got disapointed with there not beeing any progress here yet.

Why is that? Isn't it possible to make custom kernels yet? Is it hard to do something like that? Or is the device just not populair enough so noone is buying this thing.

I quite like the device but I feel it is a bit quiet in here, also find that the software on the device could use loads of improvement (already made some speed improvements myself)

I would gladly be donating to anyone who comes up with some good software or kernels :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] smaskell:
I didn't read your entire post but..

we don't have the kernel source yet. samsung should be releasing it soon.. probably when the tab is released in the US.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] FricoRico:
How stupid of me. I thought it would just be as easy as making a backup of your files and then using these files and edit them. I haven't said anything then, can't wait for this thing to bbe overclocked.

Hi guys,

Since J001 I have used as lcd density 210 instead of 240. Now I have flashed J003 and forgot to change the lcd densitiy in the build.prop before flashing and recognized how much better the rom looks with 210, so I thought I should tell it to you.

J said anywhere that this lcd density will break some apps, but I weren't able to find any app that will be broken by using this lcd density instead of the normal one. So, could you try it please and report it back if you find any app that won't work/work right with this lcd density?

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BREAK YOUR DEVICE OR DROP YOUR COFFE

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] InternationalPlayer71:
I don't know if it can be considered an app..but Arc launcher doesn't support different lcd density!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
is creating a new thread for this actually required?

in my opinion why dont u integrate all ur CM7 related threads into one "CM7 fixes / tweaks /etc" kinda thread? u can ask the mods for some help the can do such combining-thread-stuff...

it would be really helpful...

also there is an easier/more generic way to do this change in ANY build.prop:

just run this script (include it in update.zip) thru recovery:

#!/sbin/sh
# modify ro.sf.lcd_density=240
busybox sed -i 's/ro.sf.lcd_density=240/ro.sf.lcd_density=210/g' /system/build.prop
# modify qemu.sf.lcd_density=240
busybox sed -i 's/qemu.sf.lcd_density=240/qemu.sf.lcd_density=210/g' /system/build.prop
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] 9Lukas5:
simply copy your code into the updat-script?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
no...

u will have to make a file (say "install_mod") in the root of the update.zip

and the update-script should be something like:

run_program PACKAGE:install_mod

now the contents of "install_mod" should be the ones i posted above...

u might have to also mount system before executing the script...

also do test it out... i am really tired today to sit and make these zips ;)

will go to sleep now [not "deep sleep" :P ]

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Zocker Tko:
hi, i hope i understand it right, with broken apps did you mean they didnt fit the screen?

i change always on any custom roms the lcd.density to 190, then some apps didnt fit the screen (some games or widgets)

to fix is easy with spare.parts

-open spare.parts

-navigate to spare.parts settings

-scroll down to compatibility mode

-uncheck and check again

-reboot

-after reboot

-again open spare.parts

-navigate to compatibility mode

-uncheck

-reboot

after that the apps they didnt fit the screen, works now fine

only problem is with stock dialer, numberfield is smaller, or arc launcher will not work with this trick

edit: here are example pictures(lcd 190), before and after the trick with spare.parts

also, what else can we do with the USB?

Ive heard we can connect a camera to it... anything else?

[Xoom General] cam30era:
You can USB tether your phone. Useful if you have a wifi only version. But you need to root, and flash the Tiamat 1.4.4 custom kernel.
[Xoom General] gqstatus0685:
You can flash a Tiamet kernel and get more functionality. When you plug in a thumb drive go into your file explorer and look for the OTG directory. I use root explorerfor that. You can also plug in a USB powered hard drive into a hub or directly into the OTG cable. You can also plug in USB controllers or USB PS3 and 360 controllers.

It would be cool if they could get USB speakers working. I never tried it but who knows if it work.
[Xoom General] inferno1:
Is flashing a Kernel the only way to get it to see a thumb stick?
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
Currently, yes.

I would only advise it if you are absolutely comfortable with development tools and you can afford to possibly brick it.

[Xoom General] omnia1994:

Hey guys

I just followed this guide to root, S-OFF, partitioned and installed the CM7: [Video Tutorial] Noob Proof Everything Desire Guide UPDATED [04/04/11] after playing with it for a while, I think A2SD is not working.

Before flashing, I partitioned my SD with Gparted Live CD like this:

1st Partition: FAT32

2nd Partition: EXT4

3rd Partition: EXT4

After the fresh flashed, no apps installed, storage information read:

SD Card:

Total - 13.80GB

Available - 13.32GB

Internal:

Total - 148MB

Available - 108MB

then I installed Titanium Backup, Doodle Jump, SwiftKey Keyboard and Quick System Info Pro and it now reads:

SD Card:

Total - 13.80GB

Available - 13.20GB

Internal:

Total - 148MB

Available - 92.59MB

is this normal? No I don't think so.

I also checked from Quick System Info and at the A2SD storage it says Total:756MB Free: 701MB

then I searched through the threads and found this How to check if Apps2SD has been installed correctly... so I typed in the command "su" then "ls -l /data" in Terminal Emulator but it returns no dalvik-cache -> /system/sd/dalvik-cache

app-private -> /system/sd/app-private

app -> /system/sd/app like it wrote in that thread.

Then I typed "busybox df -h" and also no /system/sd is being used.

Last command, I typed "ls /system/sd/app" and it said "No such file or directory"

What am I suppose to do to get it working?

Another question...

During the first system setup, it asked me if I want to install apps from Market bla bla bla I can't remember it exactly and I pressed Cancel and it came up again after I downloaded the first app from the Market, it asked if I want to install Facebook app, Gmail, Google apps etc. and let me check what app I want, again, I pressed Cancel. But now I want to install those apps and where can I run it?

I also applied the gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip right after I flashed the CM7 since I thought Google Apps will be installed. But there are no Google Apps installed on my device. Why? What apps are in the Google Apps package?

Thank you for reading my long thread and I appreciate all replies.:D

Update1: My GOD!! After rebooting my device for the first time, the notifications bar is GONE! I browsed through the ADWLauncher settings and still can't get it back. What on earth is going on?!?!

Update2: Looks like I '****ed the installation up a bit' like Meaple said. Now when there is an incoming call, the phone rings but nothing on the screen happened. I must press on the telephone icon and press 'Return to call in progress' (which will appear when there is a call) to get to the incoming call screen then I can swipe to pick up the call!! This is crazy.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Ok you do realise you got out all wrong. Firstly you only need 1 fat32 partition and 1ext partition only. Fat32 goes first. Secondly there is an app in the market called s2e which overalls the a2sd script for you and you can choose what goes on your sd card. Thirdly it sound like you ****ed the installation up a bit. Just do a complete fresh wipe.

If you read the cm7 post by kali you would understand.

Swyped...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackMiracle:
- OK. How big should the EXT4 partition be?

- Thanks for recommending the S2E.

- Yes I think so. Actually at the S-OFF procedure there was a problem too. I posted in the AlphaRev's thread like this

Then a user replied:

but I'm flashing a fresh ROM so I wiped as in the Noob Proof guide showed.

Afterall my recovery is not a blue CWM-AlphaRev Recovery (like it should?) but still a normal green-CWM Recovery and the splash screen wasn't change to 'Why so Serious' picture. But I got S-OFF'd.

Is there anything to do with that?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackMiracle:
update 2 is at the end of the first post. this is crazy.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackMiracle:
one more question: everyone using CM7 will need to install S2E to use the A2SD?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
If your phone "tells" you, you are s-off, be happy with it and do not wonder about a not fitting color of the cwm recovery and the not changed splash screen.

With installing s2e you cannot use a2sd. You can use a2sd if you have a fat32 and an ext3 or ext4 partition on your sd card. Now all apps, wether they are programmed for this or not, will be moved to sd card (as long as the flashed rom supports this). With the s2e you can manage which apps should be in phone's internal storage or on the ext partition.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackMiracle:
Yes, it tells me that I'm S-OFF'd.

OK, drop all those weird problems. I wiped everything last night and flashed the CM7 again. No freaking problem so far. But after I flashed the Google Apps.zip, it said install success but nothing came after booting. And I don't know where I can get Gmail because I'm living in Germany and Gmail is not available in the Market. There is an Email app came with CM7, but I prefer to use Gmail.

About S2E, I asked in this thread:

then a user replied:

So I did it. Ticked the 'Applications' and 'Private apps' then rebooted. But how can I know that it is working?

Just in case - my SD partitions are:

1st Partition FAT32 <the rest>

2nd Partition EXT4 <1000MB>

Partitioned by Gparted live CD

2.) After starting, select "local" and type a nickname

3.) type

4.) Enter permission request

5.) type

Now you should see something like this:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
I beg your pardon. I was wrong with the a2sd thing. To use a2sd with cm7, you need an ext partition on your sd card and one of these scripts:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Some apps do not work while on sd card, like angrybirds or maybe your calendar app. Move it back into internal storage:

Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All>choose Calendar>"move to internal storage".
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackMiracle:
It is already in the internal storage because I have 'Move to SD' option to select.

The big problem for now is: how to make A2SD to work?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Try to move it to sd (test if it starts) and then back to internal storage. If its's still not working, use another calendar app. :D Here i can higly recommend business calendar free:

https://market.android.com/details?id=netgenius.bizcal&feature=related_apps ;)

If you used s2e correctly, a2sd is working. Maybe check again with the commands in conncetbot. You still have the option 'move to sd' in application settings, because this refers to the fat32 partiton on the sd card. In application settings android can only 'let you decide' between "internal storage" or "fat 32 partition of sd card". A2sd ist not integrated there, because it's so programmed that all apps you install will be moved automatically to sd card (ext partition); so manual moves are not necessary and senseless.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackMiracle:
Thanks for the calendar app. Works great.

Here is when I run the command.

These are screenshots from S2E:

It is not working. I have just 61 apps and internal storage showing just 20MB left.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
You need to reboot after configuring s2e. Did you do that? Do not wonder when it's take a long time, because all apps should be moved to sd ext.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackMiracle:
Yes, I installed S2E before installing all apps. Then ticked the first two options then reboot then tried installing a couple of apps but it is as you see.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Make nandroid backup (just in case) and check "mount as ext4" in boot options of s2e and reboot. Now check if a2sd is working. If still not:

Uninstall s2e, reboot phone, download and copy legacy a2sd addon to your sd card and follow instructions for a2sd legacy addon given in post. If this does not work, i am finished.
