[Galaxy S II Accessories] chrcol:
now days they only cater for the mainstream market.

the assumption was probably everyone will only use it on a hdtv that has its own speakers.

I agree its a sad state of affairs but thats how it is I guess, I am currently trying to get sound as I am using a hdmi monitor which has no speakers.

---------- Post added at 11:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 PM ----------

sweet this works, thanks man.

doing the same, sound to phone, picture to hdmi monitor.

google seems brainless at times they really do, why this isnt in the OS I dont know.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] MSK1:
Excellent. ... (hopefully still works on 4.3) I have the same problem with my PWD8 which is a panel so doesn't have speakers.

Is it possible to take a cable from the phones (Note 2) 3.5mm jack and put it into an AV receiver so that it uses the speakers attached to it?

Or even bluetooth sound to a separate speaker from the phone?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MSK1:
Sound about app useful for allowing sound to get to av receiver via rca cable

this is my first andriod but i use wp for along time.

what's the first thing to know about root and customize rom

My ss is GT-P1000 it lock any suggest
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
Android is open source code, so anyone can modify it as they like. There are tons of apps and the apps are easy to write if you want that.

But at some point you want to do things that the operating system denies, so you need to gain root permission from your system.

Note: you don't have to root, unless you can't do what you need with your device.

You can go a long time and do many fabulous things with the stock rom, so you don't have to customize your rom either.

Take it slow, this is probably the most expensive device to start experimenting with.

I think it's fairly simple to tweak, but there are thousands of "help, I've broken my precious. . " in these forums.
[Galaxy Tab General] conantroutman:
First of all, welcome to XDA :)

Here's some reading material to get you started....

Forum Rules

Some useful links...
[Galaxy Tab General] ultramag69:
I agree with rangercaptain & conantroutman, read and then if uncertain, read again. It takes a few minutes to recheck something but may take hours or be impossible to recover if you do something wrong.

I like to root my device as it opens up a lot of different options but you need to check if you can do this.

Also, check if your bootloaders are locked as this may need to be rectified as well as network lock.

You are saying your gtab is an SGT-P1000. This is a GSM tab. It uses sim cards to use the phone functions. If you wish to flash a new rom, make sure its a GSM rom as the cdma and wifi roms will brick your device.

Use the links conantroutman gave you, this may lead to more reading. Its SO much better when you ask a question to show you have done some reading as you will get more help.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
Try again.

Or manually run gingerbreak then push the files yourself
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TheBladeofFate:
If you go to the market, you can download rom manager. Install itx and under the download section, there should be a category called "Extras". Download the first one if you are on cupcake or donut, otherwise download the second one. When it is done downloading, open up settings>applications. Check off "Allow nonmarket sources". Open up your notification bar, and tap on the download. It should ask you if you want to install. Go ahead, and you're done.

Let me know how it goes!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mumilover:
Superuser app is just as the name says an app.

You can install it like an other app.

Try to search for "superuser" on android market.

To be rooted = have SU binaries. It has nothing to do with superuser app.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sept20:
hi guys, I'm using samsung galaxy s2 with Widgetlocker for screen locking, but everytime i reboot my phone, widgetlock requires me to unlock twice to see the home screen, i found once i reboot to the lock screen, the first time unlock screen is in tool mode(with menu button activate), then i unlock this screen, the second time unlock screen is the real unlock screen(with no button activate). i want 2 skip the first tool mode screen once i reboot, anyone can tell me how 2 do that?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
I'm using WidgetLocker too, you can select the option to override the default Samsung lock at boot, however, you will still see the default Samsung lock for a few seconds when rebooting the phone, but it will go away pretty fast and WidgetLocker will replace it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sept20:
yup, i see it too, but the problem is after it overrides the default lock screen, i have to unlock twice to get to the home screen. btw, i'm using go launcher, i tried using ADWlauncher and LauncherPro, no this problem, it may caused by the launcher...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
I'm using Easy-wake mode in WidgetLocker which disables default lockscreen. If you don't wanna use that just go to WidgetLocker's advanced settings and disable stock lockscreen, first option from the top ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icehot666:
I'm getting the same problem easy wake mode doesn't help - you reboot the phone, it goes straight to widget locker as normal, then u unlock and it drops into tool mode, then u unlock from tool mode, to get to the launcher. However I have noticed that once you get to the launcher nothing displays - oh and something else, when you get to the tool mode it is only then the app requests superuser permission. Very strange.

I'm using Go Launcher Ex as well....

And something else I've noticed that after all this happens, when you deliberately go into tool mode, the menu button no longer works so I now can't get to the settings to submit a bug report :(

Infact I've had to uninstall and go back to the main lock screen for now until this is fixed...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
I have no problem with WidgetLocker, but i gotta agree there are so many settings in it and if you don't choose them correctly WidgetLocker doesn't work the way you want. Even though i can understand English pretty well, i'm having troubles figuring out which option does what :o
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cigaro78:
I recommend you go in settings > manage app, delete all the widget locker data, delete widget locker, then reinstall.

With default settings, and my screen lock deactivated in settings, it behaves as expected.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icehot666:
Did all that, it still doesn't work correctly..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silently:
Are you rooted?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sen.Ferry:
hi, how to set WidgetLocker as default?

when i press the power button, i always need to unlock for 2 times. 1 time for widgetlocker, and 1 time is default screen lock..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apprentice:
Having the exact same issue. I am also using GoLauncher, so maybe there's the problem??

It is very frustrating as I really like this lock screen replacement.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stylez:
Same here using Go Launcher that's why i use Go Lock screen now pretty slick with Sense theme even though less tweakable...

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] wiilweer:
In short: Never

In long: Xperia X10 mini digitizer supports ONLY 1 finger, it means only one finger touch will be registred correctly. You have to get used to with faked dual touch.

Also, you are under from subforum and please...use a damn search.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] :
If multitouch means 2 fingers to you, then check this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1009008&highlight=dual+touch

But if you want 3 fingers or more, it's currently not available :D

OH, and tell me, WHY DO YOU NEED MORE THAN 2 FINGERS???

You can pinch and zoom, play emulators, etc.

Unless you're playing pocket legends hardcore and really wanna damage your phone :D

I think it's not hard to develop a ROM like MIUI and others.

Anyone here can give me a link on how to start developing a ROM?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] durus:
It can be easy to tailor for example stock rom for your needs, but imho developing good, stable rom is not a peace of cake. Especially, when something works for you, but it's not working for ten other people ;) Scripting/programming skills are necessary.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shrapnel2:
Miui is one of the most heavily customized roms for android. It's been out for quite a while and is still beta with a team of Chinese developers continuously developing it. Just about everything is different from the stock Sammy or stock android roms. You'd have to make all the messaging, music, contact, dialer, launcher apps basically from scratch. Sure maybe cooking/tailoring like switching apps around, adding a theme etc but for a truly better rom you'd have do some scripting/programming as Durus said and lot's of testing. I don't know enough on the matter but just my thoughts :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcogger:
This is a good place to start.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asrock37:
yeah you're right, everything will start from the scratch.

the reason why i raised this question, for everyone who wants to learn and start developing the ROM or what kind of application will be.

i know their are developer out there who can share their knowledge to us being the starter in developing using android.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moped_Ryder:
If you have the JFD pit and pda did you check the partition box? Going from CM7 to JFD you need to partition. Just make sure its the JFD odin you got.

- Are you using my files (all 3 of them?)

- Did you check the MD5 using Hashtab

- Are you using the cable that came with your phone?

- Have you tried other USB ports on you PC?

- Have you removed all other USB devices and rebooted (ie webcam)

Please check the MD5 of the pit/tar using Hashtab.

[HD Mini Android Development] asorcinelli:
Hi -r0bin-,

first of all thanks to you and thanks to all the others developers.

You're doing a great job.

A small suggestion:

Why don't you insert in the release note the functionalities that are "temporarily" broken or that doesn't work anymore?

For example if in this release the wi-fi is not working, I think that could be useful read it in the release note, so every guy that want to install the new release knows the fixs and the problems and perhaps (only a hope...) we don't see anymore stupid thread with stupid questions.
[HD Mini Android Development] pwel:

=> update to latest release (r127) that was posted one hour ago.

make a backup of your files (SMS, contacts, applications) before!
