any reasons ?

hey may i ask why you would want to do that ??proximity sensor during calls is very usefull !! makes the screen go off so that you dont accidently touch anything which you are bound to if you touch the screes wth ur cheeks or anything ! any as soon as u take the screen away from the ear it lights up ! whats the problem exactly ??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rootpuppet:
I need maximum CPU availability during calls. I guess when screen goes off some kernel governor or cpu profile setting tricks lower available cpu frequency. While experimenting with total recorder we found normal operation only when screen is always on. Right now i have just a band sticked on the sensor placeholder and all works great.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4silvertooth:
You can use Tasker app to do that but its not free.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] srmemnoch2:
gsm.proximity.enable=false

you can include this in your build.prop file, locate in /system and reboot.

this never turn off screnn during calls..

but i think only run in froyo

[Optimus One, P500, V General] rootpuppet:
Well, this is good advices. But in my case it doesn't work. I have froyo 2.2.2 @francokernel.v11

Follow the easy way set a profile in SetCPu that when screen off it switched to higher frequencies !!Say 600/480Mhz
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rootpuppet:
This is not solution because in standby mode setcpu will dry battery.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
Well, no it will not drain battery. Overall, I am getting alergic of this "battery drain" obsession. There are really crappy apps that drain battery, certainly not SetCPU.

[Xperia Play General] jkr284:
Just wondering as i experience stutters in the bigger games like rainbow six, dungeon hunter 2, backstab etc, what factors cause this and does anyone experience stutter free gaming in those games? I have 100meg free internal storage and about 190 free ram, do i need more?
[Xperia Play General] AndroHero:
How many apps do you have though? If you have alot of apps on your sd card, it can decrease read speed drastically, try moving rainbow 6 to your internal storage before playing, if it works fine, you prob need a higher class sd card :)
[Xperia Play General] crispyduckling:
i have got backstab and rainbow 6 and neither of them stutter

i have about 30mb left on internal storage

and i have a 32gb class 10 and it is almost full only 4gb left
[Xperia Play General] mrchewbacca:
game performance

That 30MB free could be part of it. You also might check into an app killer. If my phone was one for a while, I was having to reboot before a game like Backstab would work smoothly. Weird stuff would happen like the sound still going properly while the video froze.

So I cleared off to about 100MB free or more on internal storage (moving apps to SD card, including the games), then installed a task killer to free up the RAM before I run a game like that. Seems to help them run smooth and fine even after the phone's been on for a while. I only have a class 4 card as well and see no performance problems on these games now.

The task killer also seems to help my battery life some too, killing unneeded apps every now and then for me. :)

Every now and then I'll reboot still. But I think that's supposed to be good practice anyhow... to reboot at least once a week or so. Someday Android will have perfect resource management! Not yet. Gingerbread is supposed to be better at this type of management than previous versions, but I'm not sure if that's true. Maybe an expert on the forum could explain it to us.

With all the apps fighting for resources, this will probably never happen on current versions. The best way is to get rid of all the unnecessary apps like any system.
[Xperia Play General] Red_Kop:
I have to say that I too am very dissapointed with the performance of graphically intensive games.

At times Asphalt 6 is unplayable resulting in random crashes (as in the car, not the app).

Backstab lags like a biatch, and even Hot Shot Golf 2 stutters like mad.

Galaxy Under Fire 2 is again, unplayable when ther are more than a few ships on screen. Very dissapointing.

I'm gonna sheepishly put this down to the Class 2 card that came with my PLAY and hope that problems like this are fixed if I upgrade.
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
My games run fine.

I use Titanium to move everything to SD Card.

Has anyone had a problem registering transformer device on vip.asus.com?

When I'm trying to do this - website complains that my serial number is invalid (I double checked it and it's correct). Has anyone had something similar?

I have a sneaky suspicion that this might explain why I'm not getting an OTA 3.1 update...

Cheers,

Irek
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
I think it's much more likely that you just aren't inputting the code correctly. The 0's and O's are hard to tell apart but they are actually different characters. Also the B's and 8's. This won't have anything to do with the fota update either, people get that regardless of if they have registered or not.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fone_fanatic:
I ran into this earlier. Are you trying to put the serial number that is found in settings - about tablet? What you need to use I'd the one on the box or on the sticker inside the warranty pamphlet.

Don't know why they differ and was gonna create a thread to see if I'm the only one.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] irekz:
Yes. I was using one from the box. Number had two zeros, so I tried all four combinations replacing zeros with letter 'O' - but no luck. I contacted ASUS support (sent them a photo of the sticker) - will wait for their response.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] pt_monkey:
I had the same issue, then I contacted Asus and they advised me that the first sign should be letter B and the third-letter O.

The rest are definately 8-s and zero's
[Eee Pad Transformer General] irekz:
I got an initial response from ASUS support. I sent them a photo of my box - so they can decode number for themself. Here is a response:

Got mine from amazon.co.uk (so not a dodgy source). Asked them to do some more investigation. Truly bizarre - asus seems to have problems with tracking it's own shipments.

---

EDIT: got a final response from ASUS support - they started internal investigation how this could happen and recommended to return device for a refund (as it might take a while)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] desilva79:
Thanks PT_Monkey. I thought the third letter was a ZERO instead a O. Your post helped
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
Also registering your tablet on their websit edoes nothing to help get the update to you faster, I'm not sure why this rumor started. Their OTA just seems to randomly happen and I have a feeling overall there are just issues with it and it has nothing to do with your serial #.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Optimus-Prime:
i jsut registered mine. i had an issue with the first "O" the O's are wider than the zeros.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tenbeau:
I returned the TF today due to the serial number coming up invalid in Asus database and being unable to receive the 3.1 update.. I have read in other threads that quite a number of people have had the same situation and Asus explains saying that the unit was never entered into the database and an internal investigation is ongoing with no timetable for resolution. . Also it was stated that the system looks for serial number before sending out the update to the devicel It has been reported that they also said to return for exchange or refund. I really really liked this device but could not justify keeping it if I might run into warranty issues somewhere down the line, due to the serial number showing up invalid. Great device though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mayazcherquoi:
Hey guys,

My girlfriend is looking at getting a new phone. Her two options are either the Galaxy S I9000 or the Xperia X10. I have an X10, and that the Galaxy WAS much better, but what I don't quite know is, which would be the better of these two phones once they are both running on Android 2.3.3 (since, from recent news, the X10 will be getting 16 million colours in the next stock 2.3.3 update)?

Would the preferable choice still be the Galaxy?

Thanks guys. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adwarel:
Still the Galaxy, it has the faster GPU, AMOLED + Screen etc. or the new ones with Super Clear LCD, i think the Galaxy will stay the better Phone, but on the X10 you got the better looking Phone and a way better Camera :)

Running both devices on 2.3.3 will bring them close together in normal working speed, but the galaxy will outperform the X10 in every graphics related app.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trojan92:
true, the galaxy has a dedicated GPU and more ram. That's about it. i would go for the Galaxy. having more Ram and better GPU power never hurt anyone :P
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Astral07:
if it's for your GF, give her your x10 and get yourself a new phone :) she'll be very happy with the x10 and probably would never use the galaxy s potencial
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elady58:
Also, the touch screen of the galaxy is way better, have a true MT (not pseudo DT).

In favor of the X10 I can tell it is more reliable then the galaxy (I heard lots are complaining about lags and reboots)

And, it has the useful notifications LED

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,6031

[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
That's only for Samsung phones, LG ones don't have an /efs partition.

We do have an /lgdrm partition though, which apparently on some phones does contain IMEI info, although the files (system.id & device.id) mentioned doesn't exist there on the O2X. I don't know if that controls the IMEI or just displays it or what.

Besides, that's a ClockworkMod recovery commit, not a CM7 one per se.
[LG Optimus 2x] mahmutuslu:
What is the solution that I 've the same problem happened to me Friends?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
There is no solution.
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
There is solution if you have your original imei with you or box with you. There is one unapproved

Commit in cm git, cherry pick it and set your imei as you want. And then when you have it back, go to recovery and wipe all install official nightly or modaco or any other
[LG Optimus 2x] mahmutuslu:
mate imei will report exactly what the address could you tell us a little more detail?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
That is surprising. Very surprising in fact, given that in many countries it is illegal to tamper with an IMEI number.

OK, so in this case it's restoring an IMEI, but it has the potential to be used nefariously.

Just a a brief look in the code review, but can't find it, any chance of a link?
[LG Optimus 2x] mahmutuslu:
Well thank you I have nothing more to do
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
Unfortunately steve removed that from review i guess, but it was there, have seen it, it was some new stuff which can let us change all IMEI, mac address wifi, bluetooth and also hide sim card verification stuff. and steve was strictly against it, as google would get angry if this would be included in cyanogen, so he must have removed it from review, so cant be cherry picked in kangs too. Now i wish i would have taken it before it went down
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Oh that, yeah I do remember now you mention it... didn't realise it could change IMEI though, not properly at least. Caused a huge ****storm!
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:

After a lg update that went wrong i have a nice looking brick, Have the AIO-ToolKit and now i have a stock rom on my lg p990 (V30A-EXT4_Root_Init_Busybox) ofcourse my IMEI is lost i have never any luck with this stuff.

Connected the usb cable and didnt know wich setting to use Charge only isnt right, mass storage then ? no respons in device manager, then lg software setting came back in device manager with a com port.

To restore the Imei i tried to use the info above an dialed 1809*#990# but the phone respons is "reorganizing internal processes please try again after a short while"

Tried the hyperterminal but the phone doesnt answer back so i cant place my Imei back, have a nice phone but cant use it to place a call.

Any help would be appreciated i am really stuck right now.

[LG Optimus 2x] tomsi91:
You can change your IMEI in 5 minutes with hyperterminal of windows. I did it some time ago. Found manual here on forum. Reset your IMEI is method to solve data loss problem too if somebody need it.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bikevouwer:
Found the manual also but the phone will not accept the 1809*#990# so i cant choose the cp usb choice !! with nvflash and a new baseband i get a time out error time and time again so i am lost right now
[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
Best way to make it work is to do it with a GB ROM. Any GB actually. Follow the guide again, but have GB running this time :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Bikevouwer:
Youre help i much appreciated, but since i am dutch its not so easy to read and understand everything, can you please point me in the right direction, any helpfull links in a pm would be realle great but i am thankfull any way in any help i can get right now
[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
Sure.

I would just use this GB ROM which you can easily get on your phone with NvFlash which will do everything for you automatically:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1613823

I don't think the download links work there, so use this download link: http://www.mediafire.com/download/5ye56ghb6x5juo1/LGP990_V20s_OPTI-3D_V-144r2.zip

How to flash it with NvFlash:

Turn phone off. Remove battery. Keep pressing both volume buttons down, and connect phone to PC. Then just follow the guide from the extracted ROM file. When done, let the phone boot and you can later on enter the menu and chose CP USB normal.

The ROM is laggy, just use it to recover IMEI and then change to any ROM you like.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bikevouwer:
sionaing

What i have done is put on a new bootloader, Put the zip file onto the external sd card and let the bootloader install the software, no luck here cause the phone seems to be in a loop right now. get the grey lg logo screen goes black and then the grey lg logo appears and so on.

If i need to do it in NVflash i need a bin file and thats not present in the zip file.

Any other ideas ??
[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
No no mate you did it wrong.

You do not need to put anything on external sd card.

Just extract the ROM on your PC, you will find a bath file, called setup or something I can't remember. Just open it from PC. Then connect phone to PC like instructed. Don't enter normal TWRP/CWM recovery. Hold both vol buttons down, phone will remain black until installation starts but you will hear a dri-ling sound when connected.

Edit: If too complicated, use AIO to get on old bootloader and flash this ROM then: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1504280
[LG Optimus 2x] Bikevouwer:
I really appreciate all of youre efforts but i am beginning to think i am stupid , extracted the zip fil opened the folder and i cant find a batch file, setup file, or install file.

Phone is locked right now, i am getting frustrated with this piece of Fine Universel Commi Krap phone.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Greefus:
0) Root is required. Make a Nandroid backup!

1) Download Root Explorer File Manager (app is around $4, the free ES File Explorer app would not work for me)

2) In Root Explorer, Navigate to /system/ and copy/paste build.prop to /sdcard to make a backup

3) Navigate back to /system/ and click the chmod type button on the top right to make it writeable

4) Open & edit /system/build.prop

5) Change the following lines to make your phone identify as a GSM Nexus S:

ro.product.model=Nexus S

ro.product.brand=Google

ro.product.name=sodu

ro.product.device=crespo

6) Save file and remember to change the chmod type button back to read only in the system folder

7) Reboot the phone

8) MLB At Bat will now do streaming video if you have the paid app and you are signed into your paid MLB TV account

9) Enjoy
