[Gen8 General] JeffHoogland:
The fact that android needs at least 512meg of RAM to run is sickening. I can run a full blown Linux OS with 128meg.

~Jeff
[Gen8 General] Techngro:
In my best old people voice:

"I remember years past when a man could get by with just a shade over 64 Mega bites of memory and a commodore 16. Kids today...with their facebooks and the twitters. I had to hand deliver messages ya little punk!"

:P
[Gen8 General] tabuser:
As some previous posters had also noted, only if Archos manages to deliver a firmware that makes the Gen8 what it is supposed to be, would I ever consider buying any Archos-tablet again.

Until such time, NO WAY!
[Gen8 General] Techngro:
Yeah, but what's the point of that. If you're gonna buy a new Gen9, what does it matter what happens to the Gen8? It's not like Archos promised Gingerbread for the Gen8 and then pulled the rug out from under us.

In anycase, We'll definitely get Gingerbread for Gen9. And I think Googs is pushing manufacturers to provide at least 18 months of updates for Android devices. I know Archos isn't part of that consortium, but I think that bodes well for upgrades.
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
Recommendations are requirements are not the same, as you know. The emulator only uses about 80 megs for Honeycomb. I think it's more the third party apps that cause the increase than the OS itself.
[Gen8 General] tabuser:
The point is that the Gen 8 tabs were riddled with problems: broken USB, wifi issues, battery charging issues, blue tooth and tethering problems, etc.

They may be able to deliver a gen 9 tab with Honeycomb which might likely include a boat load of problems. Also it has been noted that Archos still must get Google certification for its Gen 9 tabs to have access to Google Market, if the wait for certification is anything like for Gen 8, then Gen 9's will never get Google certified
[Gen8 General] Techngro:
I don't remember seeing anywhere that Archos had to wait to get permission from Google to put Market on Gen9. The problem with Gen8 was that Google wasn't allowing Market on devices that didn't have cellular data access, which is why Gen8 still don't (and never will) have official access to the Market.

But with Gen9 having 3G access, I don't think that is a concern at all. Even the videos of hands-on with the Gen9 show Archos employees pulling up Google Market already installed on the device. I don't think they'd be doing that if they already didn't have approval to install Google Market.

As for Gen8 problems, yes, there were many. I think many people could overlook them because they were getting 80-85% functionality of other tablets but with 50% of the cost. I don't think Archos is EVER going to release a product with the polish (design or software-wise) of the higher end tablets. It just doesn't seem to be their concern. Their market isn't the person who is willing to spend whatever to get an Apple device. And people who know from the start they are looking for a "bargain" know that they have to be willing to deal with some chinks and problems.

I have an Apple Powerbook that I paid 2000 dollars for and a Dell that I paid 600 for. When the POS (piece of ****) Dell started going to hell 5 months after I bought it, I didn't go nuts. I tried to get Dell to fix it (still under warranty), and when they didn't (cause Dell is a POS company), I just took it apart and fixed it myself. I did that cause I know Dell is a budget product. I would never put up with that crap from Apple, cause I paid a crap-load of money and expect them to do better.

Anyway. I am really looking forward to Gen9. I think Archos we are gonna be pleasantly surprised with the device.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] yazyazoo:
Would love to get XBMC on my NC. Do you think the guys at XBMC will do this? They did it for iOS.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] poofyhairguy:
I know for a fact they are working on it. It is harder for them than iOS so its going to be a long process.

With that said, the Nook Color doesn't have the power to do much with XBMC. You can already max the Nook with Mobo Player.

The best option for the Nook Color is the XBMC fork Plex. It transcodes the video to work better for the device. I use it almost daily.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] yazyazoo:
Thanks! I wish I could watch my media via XBMC on my Nook. I still haven't found a way to stream my .avi files directly to my Nook. I got it to work for a little bit but can't get it to work again. I used File Expert App, Network Setup, and Rock Player. It worked twice but will not work again on my Nook. Weird thing is I can get it to work consistently on my China Epad.

I tried Plex but don't like to leave my computer on to do the transcoding.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
I use Cifs Manager to mount my PC's shared drive to a folder on my Nook and from there i use Mobo Player to play the videos, but I'm sure other players would work. I haven't had any problem using this method to stream.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] b.roid:
xbmc is the best :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] barf99:
I use File Expert and Rockplayer to stream media off my NAS (D-Link DNS-323). I don't do anything special - it just works, at least for me. Streams both video and music fine.

Would love to have XBMC on the Nook though .... still use XBMC on my Xbox1 once in a while :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] brianf21:
UPnPLAY works well. You just have to open up some ports in the PC. Uses the media server the come with windows.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jsminnis:
Ok, I have been rooting etc. since the d1, but I think I have really messed up this time.

I flashed an incompatable theme over gummy 1.8.1 and everything started forceclosing. Well, I thought no big deal, cause I still have Odin, or cwm to help me fix this. So I decided to disable lagfix before flashing anything new, and of course when the phone booted back up, everything was still fc'ing so I took the battery out and now i can't get to cwm or odin. The phone won't go into download mode, What can I do Now.

I am totally against taking my phone back for something I did, Please Help me!!

EDIT:

Sorry, kinda freaked out too early, I was holding down the volume up button instead of the volume down (what a dummy) Now let's see if I can this thing going again.

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Ambrosix:
Hello dear XDA members !

I'm an happy owner of a Transformer (dock, 16Gb) and my uncle who tried out yesterday is now planning on ordering one for him. But his main purpose would be to use it with a 3G dongle... Would it be possible, even with some tweaking ?

Thanks a lot in advance for your kind and hopefully positive answers :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] deadman3000:
Either use a phone with 3G capability and tether via bluetooth or get a Mifi you can use with a 3G sim card. The USB dongles will not work as they require drivers.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] isolated_epidemic:
Im no expert but would this be of any help to us Transformer users?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Bob Smith42:
I think it must be possible, I just do not know how. Because there is a mini-pcie position inside the tablet, and it is labelled 3G on the motherboard.

3G hardware will be installed by Asus at some point in the future. So, the software has to support this 3G. It might be easier (or harder) to get the software to recognize a 3G dongle, but I wonder how.

Great thread. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Kasimodo:
Hello,

(sorry for my bad english)

I would like to use this thread for trying to connect and use my 3G dongle on the TF101.

It's a patch for using some 3G dongles with ACER A500.

Maybe we can use it for TF101 too?

Well... I just want to try on my TF101.

So I've compared files from A500 with files inside the Prime! v1.5 rom.

I've kept some files and replaced others with the new one. But there is a file that I'm not sure:

- rild

I think it's the Radio Interface Layer Daemon or somethink like that.

From the A500 patch, "rild" file contains only text lines like this:

#!/system/bin/sh
insmod /system/vendor/lib/usb_wwan.ko
insmod /system/vendor/lib/option.ko
chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0
chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB1
chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB2
exec /system/bin/rild.run $@

size: only 1ko

From the Prime! rom, rild file seems to be compiled:

ELF

size: 10ko

So I wonder if I can replace the file or not without bricking my TF101.

Does someone know this file and may advise me?

Regards,

Kasi

EDIT: Done but no 3G and no Mobile Network option
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] MrBigKid:
I use a 3g router. This exact one as a matter of fact. Works awesome and has many other perks such as battery and availability to share the 3g with anyone. I no longer care if the tablet ever supports the 3g modems. I am up and running and happy!

MBK
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Kasimodo:
yes indeed. It works with a 3G router, and by thethering with my Android Phone too.

But in this case TV from my Mobile service provider doesn't work. So I must have my 3G dongle directly connected to the tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] merlin_the_magician:
I f you can't use your phone as a 3g hotspot eg. blackberry and you don't want to use a portable hotspot like a mifi and you really want a 3g dongle I recommend getting a sapido mb1132 - sorry can't post the link yet new forum user.

You can use it with your 3G/4G dongle or with an ethernet point or just as a range extender about ¬$80 off ebay.You can even use your phone as the data source. just google Sapido the products 3g/4g
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] tengtengvn:
I use my Sensation and a MiFi as mobile hotspot. No mod, no hack, no worry about breaking the usb dongle, no worry about the battery life because the usb dongle use a lot of power from the usb port.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] bradysd4:
Hey, I just found another option for remote internet access, although very similar to the mi-fi already mentioned. I got a Clear Rover Puck portable 4G hotspot. I tried it a few places, work, home, friends house, various parking lots and businesses, and it works great. It is very small and light, so I carry it in my pocket sometimes, and just get it out and turn on when I'm ready to surf. I'm a new customer. They give you 15 days to try it out. It's $35/month, although I think i saw somewhere that you can also use it for $5/day if you don't intend to use it that very much. Just google it and you'll find reviews and info. Also should check your 4G coverage area before buying.

http://www.clear.com/devices/details/id/93

I also bought that thingy from ASUS that allows you to use the bottom port on Transformer as a USB jack, which I guess you'd have to use with a dongle. I'd be afraid of breaking the port if using the dongle a lot, so that is one reason I like the standalone puck better. Also, You can connect several devices to it by wi-fi, not just 1, as with a dongle.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freakerz1:
I have rooted my HTC Desire HD with the Android Revolution rom.

Now the boot sound is gone, but how do i get the sound back again?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #flizr:
If you're not familiar with customizing ROMs, you should check out some guides before doing anything. But anyhow, this is how you change the sound:

1. Gain access to your actual 'ROM' drive on your phone. You can do it by for example downloading an application called Root Explorer from the Market.

2. Place the android_audio.mp3 on your SD-card. (Attached to the second post)

3. Open Root Explorer, locate the android_audio.mp3 and copy it.

4. Go to /data/local/ and tap the Mount R/W button on the top.

5. Then remove the audio file in the folder (if there is any) and paste the HTC audio file there.

6. The folder should now have two files: bootanimation.zip and your new (android_audio.mp3) audio file.

7. Restart the phone and it should work. :)

---

But just to be curious; why do you want the sound to be back? :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #flizr:
I found the original HTC boot up sound, the file is attached to the message. :)

i am trying to do same thing just different rom. coredroid rom and i have to tell everyone be care full when you doing it because i had to reflash rom because of the sound.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freakerz1:
Thanks, it working. This thread can be closed again :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #flizr:
No problem. :) And just to clarify, the sound file can be anything, it doesn't have to be the HTC's one.

Hello from Greece,

I have flashed my HTC Desire with SuperNova rom v2.4.0.0 and I noticed that there isn't any boot sound during phone's startup...

But with root explorer I found an mp3 file at path... /data/local with the name "android_audio.mp3"...

In order to re-enable the boot sound with the original HTC startup sound what I can do...???

Do I must replace this existing file with the original one, although the two files have the same size...???

Or I must flash a signed file containing the sound I want from recovery mode...???

Thank you very much...!!!:)

I see the latest kernel's are talking about under volting could anyone give me some guidance on this. I have no idea about what voltage is safe or appropriate. is there dangers involved?

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DaywiTT:
undervolting is just lowering the amount of voltage used for a specific frequency. you can use pimp my cpu to undervolt each frequency to get the best voltage suited for your transformer.

I dont know where should I open this topic but if I write wrong section it can moved another topic by modder.

today I wanted to downgrade from samsung 2.3.4 rom to official 2.3.3 rom however after format I got this error :

E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11 and it hangs at boot logo.

when I upgrade to 2.3.4 rom my phone works without any problem.can someone help me pls?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ykkfive:
/dev/block/stl11 = /cache

perhaps u can try to wipe date and cache in the recovery menu (PS u will lost everything)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] benveq:
I already did it from recovery mode but it gives me same error:( the only way to make phone work is to install 2.3.4 update :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lttldvl:
Im assuming that you were trying to use EZbase v3.0?? if so I get that error as well.

Here's what I would suggest:

1. Download and flash EZBase v2.0

2. flash speedmod kernel (for FroYo)

3. Download and install EZBoot gingerbread bootloader

4. Download and flash the stock gingerbread 2.3.3 from Ramad.

Although I'd personally advise staying with 2.3.4, as it contains a security fix to stop your phone getting hacked.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ykkfive:
not even by reflashing csc.tar?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] benveq:
it is crazy i know but it just let me to install 2.3.4 ! i try to downgrade to official 2.3.3 and it gives that error:( damn really couldnt figure it out :confused:

can it be related with repartitioning? because all official roms that i try to install consist of only one tar file.however i also uncheck repartitioning at that time
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ykkfive:
u missed the bootloader thing?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] benveq:
actually i complete installing gingerbread 2.3.3 however at recovery section it gives this error : E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11 and my phone stucks at galaxy s animation all the time

Introducing...

Honeysense HD v6.2.1-v6.2.2 [codename - back to stock]​

FAQ:

Q: What is it?

A: This is my graphic modification for

Honeysense HD v6.2.1 & v6.2.2

A: This is the first rom which fully satisfies me with the energy conservation and smoothness.

BTW part of the graphic i really like.

How to install:

1) Drop on SD-card

2) Make

!!!NANDROID BACKUP!!!

3) Flash via CWR - install zip (i strongly recommend to use 3.0.2.8 or above)

* Changed lower bar back to stock (added transparency)

NO FURTHER UPDATES (im going to another rom...) this mod is fully compatible with 6.2.2:

[not implemented]* Caller will be reverted back to the original green/white colour

[not implemented]* SMS graphic will be reverted back to the stock white colour

[not implemented]* App - "Market" - graphic will be reverted back to stock

[not implemented]* All grey background will be reverted back to the white

[not implemented]* All blue background will be changed to green with saving all the glowing effects

How to resolve this problems? other rom? other kernel? other something?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
This is a ROM Problem. It's being experienced by many users, and called "Camera Shutter Sound bug". Unfortunately, even the latest nightly I used (#103) has this. In this, once camera sound is gone, ALL sounds of your phone will be gone, including call and notification sounds, and the only way to fix it is to reboot.

Also, don't use Task Managers. They cause more issues than they fix.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infernovip:
thanx again for quick and correct anserw.

One more about this "sound bug" its not only that sound is gone... phone starting have some really bad lags after this bug.

In *3 you can read that something this same its hapening with only voice recording program.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infernovip:
this same problems in every nightly and stable 7.1.0.1 and rc 7.2 RC...

its any possible way to repear this?

is any hope that cm team will repear this?

sometimes after few pictures camera stop working and the screen stop responding and after copule of secounds pfone restarts
[General Questions and Answers] badasschris:
Hi All,

I have a galaxy s 2 and I got it by getting this deal

£150 + £13 p/m for 24 months

which is pretty good as works out about the price of the phone sim free but I only get 50 mins 250 texts and 100mb internet

So I went for this deal from quidco

100 mins + 100 texts + 500mb internet + unlimited landline (or can be any booster)

+ free galaxy apollo (I think this is a galaxy 3?)

costs roughly £180 over 24 months (£5 somthing for 12 and £10something for the next 12) and get £80 cashback so about £105 for the 24 months which is roughly the amount I will save if I drop my internet booster from my galaxy s sim (£3 per month)

Anyway I gave the details as thats a great deal for the contract alone but you also get the galaxy apollo.

The question is should I sell the phone for £40-£50 or is there any reason I should keep it? I know it is good to have a backup but is there any other point in haveing 2 phones? Just think it's a waste selling the phone for so little

Thanks
