[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cottinghamm:
I received an email yesterday with a Zip file attached, the GMail client wouldn't let me download & stated that there was no viewer to View it.

I have File Expert installed which will open & decompress zip files (over and above any native OS support for zips) but this is not offered as a choice.

I would have thought that there should be an option to download the file even if there is no way of opening it, is there a configuration somewhere ?

Kind of essential, I get a lot of zipped files in emails.

Search the market for "Download All Files" from HwkRbbt Software. It works great and allows saving of EVERYTHING.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cottinghamm:
Thanks, I'll give that a go.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaulGG:
try androzip from the market, unzips anything, and is a brilliant file manager as well
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] womp:
I am having trouble with this as well. My zip files show up in GMail with a 'INFO' box that when I tap onto it prompts me with a window saying that there is no application found to view it.

I have tried a few file managers already, including ASTRO (Which I own) plus the suggestions above. I take this for granted on my Droid X already...Any ideas?

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmoo:
Hej,

I've been reading some review and some posts here on XDA.

Some have very good battery (2/3 days) some good (1/2 days) some have bad (0.5/1 day).

My questions is who to believe? :P

I want to get a HD7, cause I can get it dev unlocked and running Mango. Want to play with Mango. But I'm worring about the battery. I can get Omnia7 for 150 euros and HD7 for 250 euros. On Omnia7 a lot of people have good internet, but here the feelings are mixed.

My phone use:

2 Exchange, 2 imaps accounts

Twitter, Facebook.

I do a lot of whatsapp, but since it's not available for WP7....

SMS around 20 times a day.

Browsing for about 1 hour a day (including Facebook and Twitter).

On my LG Optimus 2X I can get a day/day and half.

How much would I get on the HTC HD7.

Hope you guys can help me out.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AvengerII:
HD7 unbranded (buyed 22 December 2010, orginal battery), 7392 NoDo ROM, WIND operator.

IMHO, with your type of usage you should recharge every evening (if not before ...)

Comparing to my use:

1 Exchange (sync every 30 mins);

1 IMAP (sync every 30 mins);

10-15 SMS per day

30 minutes talk per day

Some FB session (3-4) just to read the "news"

And my HD7 last no more than 1.5 days (NO airplane during the night) :(

What bothers me is that as far as "tuning" I do I can not significantly increase the battery life.

For example also manually synchronizing the emails gain only a handful of hours.

Bye, Marco.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ricochet69:
Hi Guys,

Maybe im just being a bit slow here. But i cant seem to get NoLED working on my SGS2.It works for a few seconds then the screen power down kicks in and the screen goes completely black. I can change the timeout settings on the display to max of 10 mins but that doesnt work at all it just shuts down after a few seconds.

All i want it a notification led, damn samsung its the one thing thats missing from the phone. Even if someone has some other apps that might do.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] L10nH34Rt:
Working fine here. Only thing that's not cool, is that you've to wake the phone with home button instead but that's no biggie.

Are you using WidgetLocker? Because I heard that they don't play well together.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] veveko:
Working fine for me too.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] yiannisthegreek:
Mine works just fine and I can wake my device with the home button with no issue. The icon stays blinking on the screen until I either press the power button which then shuts off the screen completely and pressing it again turns the screen back on to the noled icon and when I press the home button it takes me to my lockscreen and then into my phone to retreive the notification.

This is exactly how it worked on my old SGS and is how it works now on my SGS II.

Also... I had noled working well with Widgetlocker for over a week and then all of a sudden some conflicts / bugs appeared. For example... When I would receive a text, noled would show my Gmail icon instead of my text icon until I restarted noled completely so I just uninstalled widgetlocker and all is back to normal now.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BoostedSR20:
+1 Been using it since day one no problems, but I don't use any of the power saving features.

You can also wake the phone with the back button. ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] norpan111:
Mine is bugging out and wont let me drag the notificationsliders that appears when you receive SMS or missed call wont work. And widgetlocker also disables noled:(
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] celeritykid:
Any fix or replacement apps for noled if I'm using widgetloker? I like both widgetlocker and miles, but too bad I can't have both at the same time
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] L10nH34Rt:
LOL swype fail? :p
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] norpan111:
Mine tried to correct it to moles lol xD
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] yiannisthegreek:
For the people here that are having the issue with NoLed and between NoLed and Widgetlocker... Are you running the latest version of the NoLed app?

As I said, I used to have a problem with NoLed and Widgetlocker with an OLD version of NoLed but now when running the latest version of EACH app I have really no problems.

Search the forums for the NoLed thread (I used to see it in the Galaxy S forums quite a bit) and see what the newest version of NoLed is.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] celeritykid:
really fail. my bad, sorry ya. didnt notice the mistake which was auto corrected. gotta practice more i guess

i used widgetlocker 2.1.0 with noled 4.3.2, i suppose both are the latest one available in the market. SMS notification is ok, though i have to select as notification for other app, not as sms notification, since im using Go SMS. For call, i got no idea how to get it work. still havent tried 4.4.1b which is not officially released to the market yet
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] David Roosendaal:
I would much rather have an app that turns on the LED left of the home-button...

Exactly WHAT kind of message I received doesn't matter, I just want to know there is something new...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] David Roosendaal:
I have now learned that this function exists: BLN

two major reasons for me not to go for it:

1) app is not for free

2) sms doesn't set it off

So until it has evolved into a fully working ROM feature: noled.
[Atrix 4G General] moshikko:
hi guys

i tried to flash kholk's kernel and for some reason i lost 3G connection

i flashed it on various roms :

1. clean 1.5.7 sbf

2. gingerblur 3

3. gingerblur 3.5

still no success

every time i flash the kernel i lose 3g, wifi works great.

also with the other kernel by faux123 i have no 3G prob but i lost wifi which is already known.

3G is more important to me cause i have an unlimited data package

EDIT : i tried the radio from the GB leak and it works like a charm

flashed the new radio and then flashed the kernel and all is well

[Acer Iconia A500] simonsgray:
1) re root your device

2) go into acer recovery installer and reflash to the backed up recovery (or do the stock recovery for your version)

3) de root.

I had to do this to get my update to work.
[Acer Iconia A500] star80:
Do you know where can I find stock recovery for my version?

I have Acer_A500_1.139.05_COM_GEN1

thank you!
[Acer Iconia A500] simonsgray:
When i installed ARI, it backed up my current recovery. When i went back into ARI, my old recovery was the first option. Sorry, explanation sucks, i don't have screenshots for you.

This would be the best place to start: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1126364
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
Look in system/etc for a filed called install-recovery.sh. if its there change its permission from 444 to 544. Then reboot normally. It'll overwrite cwm with your stock recovery.
[Acer Iconia A500] star80:
Thanks! I used stock one in ARI, woks good.
[Acer Iconia A500] djyoshii:
Hi Euclid, are you able to post a copy of that install-recovery.sh file? I don't seem to have it in my system/bin anymore :(

...That is assuming the file is not unique to each device??

I'm thinking the reason my OTA update wouldnt install is because i dont have the stock recovery menu.

Thanks!
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
I really don't get why everyone is spazzing over this... If you've already taken the steps to root and install CWM in the first place, why not just install the stock 3.1 image that's been provided in the dev section? It's 100% stock, no need to wait for Acer to stop twiddling their dangly bits...
[Acer Iconia A500] kibblenbits:
Floatingfatman, that is exactly what I did, and it worked perfectly. Good advise!
[Acer Iconia A500] djyoshii:
Yeah thats what i ended up doing to update it to 3.1.

Reason i want it back to stock is that i couldnt update via OTA at all (downloads fine but install fails at ~20% with the ! in a red triangle).

I was hoping by restoring it to stock the OTA would work, and so any future updates could also be done via OTA as opposed to finding a workaround each time.

Other than that, it's working just fine for now.
[Acer Iconia A500] Magaboo:
I don't understand 'change permission from 444 to 544'. Root Manager lets me choose between, 'Read, Write or Execute'. Could you please elaborate?

Thanks

Never mind. Problem solved.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paradix:
Hello everybody,

I just have some requests from members in a french forum. Some of them tried to update their HTC Dream Rogers with EBI1 and radio 3.x with the new Kernel 2708... Of course, they bricked their devices.

Is there any way to unbrick the device with softwares?

Is the JTAG the only way to do that?

If French jtag-unbrickers read this, contact me!

Thank You.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezterry:
Um.. why is it "of course" the 2708+ radios/spls work perfectly on rogers dreams.. You just need to root with the rogers e911 dream rooting procedure (that will install 1.33.2005 SPL + keep the 3.22 radio) then us the fastboot instructions to install the radio SPL.

If they have the wrong recovery the worse that is needed is to flash the orange SPL and try again. (making sure its the ebi0 recovery you flash via fastboot with the new radio/spl)

This is of course only true if you follow my fastboot instructions.. if you follow one of the recovery update instructions you will brick with the only solution being a JTAG hack if you had an ebi1 recovery (-R recovery) and 3.22 radio and flashed via recovery the 2.22 radio. (1.33.0013d actually works on the 3.22 radio .. just not with the extra ram)

Thank for your quick answer. I am going to forward your solution and see if this can help!

[Android Software Development] GhostOfTheNet:
Hi,

Because of the need of a bootmanager and the lack of patience to type a hack a lot at the console, I created a ubuntu maverick based build system for arm crosscompiling with a script helps by building kernel, ramdisk, recovery archive, debugging via fastboot and so on. As chroot env it is very flexible, needs not to install something and runs inside all linux distris.

just extract it somewhere onto an ext partition goto the directory and type ./start

in the root of the chroot env is a README file which contains infos where is what. read it before.

it contains three tools

build (a script supports different actions, "build help" shows them)

unpack-boot (extracts a boot image into the actual directory)

unpack-ramdisk (extracts a ramdisk into the actual directory)

Download:

http://www.bisme.net/files/xda/bootbs.tar.bz2

TODO:

the chroot env is still based on a desktop version of maverick and bigger than needed, this will change soon.

PS: Bootmanager is still in work, should finish(as a trivial but working version) in the next days and is the first step to support multiboot different linux installations(also different android versions) on android tablets. But this is another story will get an own Thread here. In the meantime I hope all romcookers out there will have fun with this build system.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angel129116:
I had a UK unlocked (no branding) GT-P1000 Galaxy Tab. I flashed it to a custom gingerbread build on Win7 X64 but later wanted to revert to stock. After a lot of searching I flashed the device with P1000XWJMI. All went fine and device booted back in (with a foreign language set as default but I've changed to English via settings).

When connecting the device to Kies it now says "This version of the device cannot be updated". It never used to say this before! It used to say I was running the latest firmware.Can anyone advise what the problem is?

I've seen some threads referring to something with a CSC mismatch and to alter using *#272*IMEI# and changing the code but I didn't want to do this without being certain what I'm changing.

Presently Kies shows:

PDA: JMI

Phone: JMA

CSC: JM4 (CPW)

I'm running Kies version 2.0.1.11053_99

Thanks

Craig
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
Is JMI stock for your tab? Besides, the country code might be wrong.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angel129116:
I didnt know how to find the correct stock for this tab. I just saw in a post that someone else form UK had used this so I went for it.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0sh:
i had this issue also , and i didn't know ever how to make it work

so ppl said that you have to download app from the market that plays with the PDA and CSC to change them to what ever you want without flashing any other rom

Darkpal guide :

My way is DANGEROUS. You need to know what you're doing to do it. IF IT MELTS YOUR TAB am not RESPONSIBLE.

1. Do a Rotobackup of your existing firmware or any backup to your efs folder (regular backups won't work).

2. Download an app called SpoofFW

3. Put the PDA, Phone and CSC of a known stock firmware (like your asia

4. reboot.

5. connect to kies.

thanks for him not for me , but to your info i couldn't understand what to do with the app maybe you wait someone to describe it for you

Thanks for your attention, and wait for your advise as well.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absolutab:
If I understand you correctly, you have to:

[*]Press menu

[*]Settings

[*]Privacy

And there you'll have the option to do the factory reset.

You can also do it by booting into recovery (volume up + power on) and selecting it from the menu.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absolutab:
My tab is from the uk (got it from amazon uk) and it was jmi/jma/jm2 (cpw) on the last update. Before that it was jj7/jk5/jj5 (cpw).

Maybe you can try downloading an older euro rom from samsfirmware and go from there. Don't forget jmi had locked bootloaders.

I have problem to find app which support movie play via HDMI output with subtitle.

On my device I see movie playing with subtitle (.srt) but on TV I see only movie but withouth subtitle.

Does anybody have any proposal how to fix that or which app do show subtitle on output HDMI. To include subtitle into movie as is not optional becouse I can't convert movie every time I want to look TV via phone MHL.

For movies I think format like .avi, .mkv, mp4 etc...

[Galaxy S II General] daneel_:
What i have found about stock player is you can't have more than one subtitle file for example:

nameofthevideofile.ENG.srt

nameofthevideofile.SPA.srt

I know mVideoPlayer can load different srt files but i'm not sure it can display the subtitles over MHL. I'm going to try it and post results.
[Galaxy S II General] daneel_:
Ok my little experiment with subtitles and MHL:

Stock player shows subtitles both phone and MHL

mVideoPlayer only shows subtitles on the phone screen

MoboPlayer only shows subtitles on the phone screen

RockPlayer shows subtitles both phone and MHL only in software decoding mode. In hardware decoding software subtitles are shown only on the phone screen

DicePlayer only shows subtitles on the phone screen

Those are the tests so far. Only mVideoPlayer allows me to choose the srt file (several languages for example).
[Galaxy S II General] uriby:
Had the same problem and answer bellow helped me to see the subtitles on TV screen. The only limitation I currently see is that the internal player control the size of font on the phone screen but not change it externally. In addition, the subtitles position in both screens are slightly different, which point on different processing for internal and external view.

In addition I had a problem that the Hebrew subtitles does not shown but I saw question marks.

After some investigation and tests I found that the internal player on my Galaxy 2 accept only unicode srt files, designed for RTL read. Since most of the subtitles in Hebrew are historically published as ANSI and LTR read (since the DVD appliance days that were limited to this format. Currently most software and streamers read all formats) I had to convert it twice:

1) Open the ANSI file in Subtitles Workshop and fix punctuation (Subtitles Workshop works only with ANSI files).

2) Convert the file to Unicode (using Notepad "save as" command and choosing Unicode or UTF-8 format).

BTW, usually I use mVideoPlayer. It requires RTL file so I had to do the first step any way before transferring the movie to the phone, but then it doesn't support the Unicode file that I saved. After more test I found that it plays UTF-8 files. Since the internal player is luckily support both Unicode and UTF-8 formats, I can keep only one file in UTF-8 format and RTL direction of punctuation.

The only problem is that Subtitles Workshop doesn't support not Unicode neither UTF-8, so if the srt file is originally in these format, I can't fix the punctuation direction (I didn't find another tool) unless I lose the special characters like notes you can find mainly in musical.

Hope this helps for other users, specially for RTL language users (Hebrew/Arabic).
