[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titooo7:
I'm using an JVQ rom and overall I'm hapoy with it.

But I also would like to have the SGS2 lockscreen because I really like the music controls when the phone is locked.

What are the files I should use to have it?

thanks

PS: Using a rom with lots of sgs2 apps is not an option as I feel they are a little bit slower

I am surprised no one has made a lock screen where you need to use all 5 fingers to unlock. Kind of like in the commercials.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] dean_fx:
Post a picture or video of what your talking about.

Maybe I could help? ;o)

I'm pretty sure that's pretty much non-existent and made for demonstration purposes only.

i agree!!! i want a lock screen like that! that would be the most epic and awesome thing ever!!! id definetly pay for something like that
[Xoom Themes and Apps] mikelodean7:
me too!!! i would pay for that!!

but i also want to contral my tab with 5 fingers! like they were doing showing the texts... you know? maybe for tab switch in the browser...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Vistaus:
+1 here for this great idea! :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] MitchTank:
thats the best lock screen idea in the history of lock screen ideas, would be ool if it had buttons like in the videoeo that quick linked you to several app, music Calender gmail contacts browser, all the most used, also if it was as big as one in video you could have buttons on outside ring, and a working manipulatible preview of the app button selected on inside ring, and you could scroll through each preview by rotating the lock.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ChongoDroid:
:o I'd like that! Its like a holographic mouse!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Theme Ishere:
Some nice ideas here. As much as I love the vanilla experience, in terms of lockscreens Google always disappoints me. Especially with Honeycomb: The first thing I though was: Why not having, let's say, up to 5 app shortcuts around the ring (just like the "lock"). If you move your finger to the lock, you unlock. Move it to the "Music" symbol, you open your music app, move it to the "Pulse" app...you get the idea. There are so many opportunities, especially with this kind of big screen (and the support of 10 Fingers at once) that it hurts me to only see this (even though fancy) ring to unlock without further modifications.
[HTC Sensation] crazy_agent:
Hello,

Any one experiencing high battery drain ? I have current widget on and the idle consumption is around 250ma compared to 4ma when i had the HD2 ,i tried uninstalling every app that i don't need but still the same ,then i disabled the WiFi no change ,changed the mobile cell mode to 2g still no change,also disabled data no change ,BUT when i enabled airplane mode it dropped to 14 ma !!

so now if i keep the phone just on with no mobile data , WiFi or anything else it consumes around 200ma idle ,but disabling calls all together (airplane mode) would actually take care of it .... so the problem is with the radio then ?

thank you.
[HTC Sensation] ardsar:
No battery widget app is able to record correct std by current. HTC have changed something. If your std by current was 200ma your device would only last 8 hours with no usage. There was probably no point in you un installing all of your apps. There are other threads discussing this issue.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d&d:
I'm using this phone in Puerto Rico and Claro is the carrier. Can I just flash any rom available for the s2 here in xda?
[Acer Iconia A500] franva:
Hi guys,

Since the mobile hot spot is an adhoc networks, so tablet cannot recognise it

directly.

So I found a instruction which is called can solve this problem.

We simply replace the original wpa_supplicant with the new one.

And put it in /System/Bin/.

I did the root and copy, but it still cannot find the adhoc hotspot for me.

So anyone have any idea?

Solution 1: solving it with the magic "wpa_supplicant"

Solution 2: changing the configuration of hotspot in my mobile to a normal wifi.

I'm waiting for anyone who can solve this.

Cheers

Winston
[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
Hmm. I have a mytouch 4G and the A500 connects to the hotspot easily. No mods, rooting etc. needing.

Is this in relation to phones that are using less than carrier proposed methods for enabling hotspots?
[Acer Iconia A500] franva:
Hi Neo,

According to what I have had known so far, it seems that google blocks this function,

so someone modified the wap_supplicant to enable the hotspot functionality.
[Acer Iconia A500] Vereynn:
Solution 2 depends on your specific phone and its implementation. My Droid for instance doesn't support infrastructure hotspot (outbound), so I had to use the "magic wpa_supplicant" approach. Other phones may support infrastructure mode, either directly or through a 3rd-party wifi tether app.

In terms of solution 1 - if you get the wpa_supplicant (apparently a new version has been posted for those of us w/ 3.1 update) you also need to reset the permissions on the file to match that on the original file (which I know you backed up, right? :)); easiest way would be through Root Explorer and set Read: (Owner/Group/Others), Write (Owner only) and Execute (Owner/Group). I'm too lazy to remember what the Terminal Emulator chmod command would be :D

As a reminder to all who do choose to replace wpa_supplicant, keep a copy of the original file, you never know when Acer's going to require a specific original file for any future updates (wpa_supp wasn't needed for the 3.0.1 update but was for 3.1)
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Yes I would say do not delete or move the old file just rename by adding old to end of file name. Its how I done it renamed did the update changed back. And now all is well again.I used the same replacement file from before. No need for a new. Version
[Acer Iconia A500] franva:
Hi Vereyn,

Thanks a lot.

Could you please provide the link to download?

Frankly, I have tried all wpa_supplicant in this forume.

None of them works for me.

My version is Android 3.0.1

Acer ICONIA A5011, rather than A500.

Soo... Which rock have you been hiding under exactly? This is pretty old news, and there are already a few threads detailing exactly what you need to do... Hell, there's one on the first page of this forum section!
[Acer Iconia A500] franva:
Dear Floating,

Could you please send the link to me? or at least give me the title of that article which

you are talking about?

Because it disappeared again now >_<;

yes there are many ad hoc articles, but none of them work for me....

Hi all,

I'm having some problems doing a Nandroid Backup in CWM.

I go into Rom Manager and reboot to recovery.

I select Backup/Restore and run a backup before attempting to flash a new rom.

I get all the way to Backing up Data... And it Freezes about halfway through. It happened yesterday and today.

I'm running Stock Rooted 2.2.2.

Can anyone help?

Did you wipe first? I always do before restoring a nandroid and haven't seen any issues.

[HTC Desire S] lynxnoon:
Guys

Pls am new here, any tup on how to stop this battery drainage?

since we can't root for now, what can I do to stop this drainage?

Battery doesn't least half a day even after doing all the necessary things eg reduced display to 15%, disabled always data, mainly on gsm etc

PLS I need your help ASAP

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Who said you can't root?

Ginger break v1.2 after alpharevx s-off
[HTC Desire S] .sh4d0w.:
Settings> Audio> pocket mode off, vibration feedback off, other stuff that might use the proximity and the G sensor off.

Also check your installed apps some of them tend to stay active even after you "quit" them (you can't actualy quit). Download "system panel" for that, and you will see in te left of an app if it uses the cpu Even if an app is there is not actualy draining battery, only if it uses the cpu.

So don't use task killers, they will only drain you more battery.

I keep my screen on auto brightness, and i still get 2 days.

Hope i helped you.
[HTC Desire S] lynxnoon:
Though I just S-off and rooted but will still try out what you guys say

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Make sure that in

Settings>wireless network> mobile networks> always on mobile data = off

Once I set the wifi policy to off when the screen goes off and installed JuiceDefender I got battery drain down to about 30% per day

On my system (stock, stock rooted and 1.47 rooted ) Juice Defender 3.5.6 many times fail to resume mobile data on screen unlock
[HTC Desire S] ngek202:
I don't have a problem with my Desire S regarding the battery, i mainly use it for sms and few calls disabled wifi, bluetooth, brightness very low, disabled key tones, and vibrate. For 12hrs i still have 94% batt life left..
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Leedroid ROM, and unity kernel = awesome combination.

I get really really good battery life :)

At least much better than stock!
[HTC Desire S] decoyknox:
I'm using LBC mod, the newest released version works wonders for the battery!
[HTC Desire S] lynxnoon:
the max have gotten so far with all the tweaking n stuff is like about 12hrs . . . .is there something wrong with the battery or am i missing something?
[HTC Desire S] decoyknox:
I used to have this problem constantly. I'm not lucky when it comes to battery life.

Could be the battery. Try LBC v0.6 and get setcpu. See if that helps if you haven't done so already.

Unity kernel sucked my battery dry.
[HTC Desire S] lynxnoon:
Am on miui rite now with cm7 kernel ....I used the unity kernel b4 and no improvement on battery life

LBC rom have also tried and that also zaps battery

Kinda surprised how people get to use their desire s for.up to 2 days
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Have you tried the tiamat kernel? Also, I recommend investing in Tasker to squeeze the most out of your battery. Simply having it automatically go into airplane mode when you sleep helps. Get it (like me) turning auto-sync on for 2 minutes every 15 minutes aswell, and you get over 24 hours battery with heavy use.
[HTC Desire S] decoyknox:
On second inspection. Yes LBC is still draining my battery dry. You're not alone. It's beautiful when screen off, but as soon as the screen is on, and its like 1% per minute. Scary.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
With the stock kernel?
[HTC Desire S] decoyknox:
You are correct, sir.
[HTC Desire S] -Maarten:
I had this problem when still on stock ROM and had a few widgets collecting data in the background. It wasn't all that severe though; I had to charge the phone once a day. Since I installed LBC mod, I only have to charge the phone every two days;)
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Use this to track down the battery drain...

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.asksven.betterbatterystats

And/or this...

If it's data traffic related this'll point you at which specific app is using it...

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.radioopt.widget&feature=search_result

Then either un-install the culprit, or try different kernel, or freeze the sucka using Titanium Backup. See if that helps. Either way, would be interested to know what you discover.

1% per minute is scary drain I agree. Something not quite right there. You're not OC to silly levels are you?
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yes, the new lbc ROM gas a drainage problem... Mine was dropping very fast. Switched back to leedroid, great battery life again! (Stock kernel) I also use setcpu

I reckon it could last me 2 days moderate usage, and 3 light usage!
[HTC Desire S] kyogoku:
for me: no Live wallpaper+15 sec timeout+no vibrate+battery management apps would save a lot for daily use :)

Great Battery Life

3.1 update pulled mid release? -That's what Acer Support says. "New Build Tomorrow"

So earlier today, I finally received my 3.1 OTA update notification....

I wasn't ready at the time to initiate it, so I declined, unfroze my bloat apps, un rooted, and then attempted to manually check for updates.

It says my device is "Up to Date"

Obviously, I hadn't updated, and am still on 3.0.1, so I called Acer tech support.

According to representative, Acer pulled the 3.1 update mid-release today. Supposedly due to a bug causing some devices to not take the update.

"They will be re releasing a new build of 3.1 later today or tomorrow" he said.

So here I sit, on 3.0.1, and am giving the community a heads up that they might be getting yet another OTA update. MAYBE. That's at least what was understood.

Anyone else having this issue? I know they're rolling out they update gradually, but I would have figured I would have been able to manually initiate the process.
[Acer Iconia A500] Vereynn:
I ended up having to download/install 4x before mine "took" yesterday, just hope they push an incremental update as well with a different build number.

One of the failures came back as an "invalid file" before it even rebooted into recovery; the other 2 fails were because I hadn't rolled back all of the system files I'd replaced.

Maybe they're fixing the "invalid file" issue?
[Acer Iconia A500] rgouyet:
I had the same trouble today. Yesterday evening and this morning, I was able to update to 3.1 OTA. But as i had no time to do this, I was expecting to do the update this evening.

And now, it says that my device is up to date. (3.0.1)

I will wait tomorrow.
[Acer Iconia A500] Africanjedi:
Thanks for the heads up. I was wondering why I could not update to 3.1 today :)
[Acer Iconia A500] nytrojen:
Well that makes sense. When I was installing the update it took me 6 attempts: 4 times it just stopped downloading and restarted randomly and once it said "installation invalid" or something along those lines. Thankfully it worked in the end, although Kobo reader doesn't seem to work at all anymore. Keeps FCing
[Acer Iconia A500] Shrike9:
Thanks for the heads-up. I ran the update after I got home from work tonight. I got some sort of error, and it booted back into 3.01 just fine. I manually checked for the update again, and now I'm getting "Your device is up to date".
[Acer Iconia A500] Fluffbutt:
Looks like I was right in a previous post where I said it'd be best to wait for 3.1.1!

And all those fanbois attacking me over it.. LOL!!
[Acer Iconia A500] tatoori:
Weird- Mine said update was available yesterday evening and I did it and it worked (UK time). It shows as 3.1 now, but the file it downloaded was some weird file name containing 4.0.11 or soemthing similar? Must admit haven't played around thoroughly to see if there's any difference- waiting for weekend.

When they re-release do you think I'll get the 'fix' for whatever was wrong??
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Depends entirely on what they're fixing. If it's just something to do with the updates failing, then why would they need to update devices that already have it?
[Acer Iconia A500] tatoori:
True- I thought they'd just do a blanket update for all to get all tablets with the same 'build'- easier to maintain if needed- like they do at work for IT purposes.

Also I was not rooted, not sure if that would have made a difference! (I'm a basic user but learning through xda!)
[Acer Iconia A500] Bryan858:
I lost my opportunity to install 4.010.08. Two days ago I got the notice of an update. I tried to hold off as I wanted to see if I could capture the update and share it with others. After I got off work the next day and with some alogcat info I tried to check for updates and it was gone. Now I'm stuck on 3. 01 still. Hopefully they push out the update again as this time ill be ready.

I think they were supposed to push the update today, but I'm not seeing anything yet either. Anyone got any official word?
[Acer Iconia A500] andyng007:
My is 3.0.1. I run the update check and it says "your device is up to date."

Would it let you update to 3.1 if it had been rooted?
[Acer Iconia A500] dude64:
Just chated with ACER support. Well, not exactly very knowledgeable, so I would take it with a pinch of salt. But, what I was told is the update will be pushed and can not be initiated from the user end and I should be getting it soon. Also it is Google and not Acer responsible for rolling out the update. Make of it what you will.
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
Well it's "today", and it's still not here lol ...anyone surprised? :eek:

Just download the mtz file and install(open) it. It will ask to install the theme.

To change/edit go to apps->themes->edit-theme->lockscreen

No worries. This is a bit OT for this thread, sorry. But can you tell me short about the rom? Like are the battery times good? And can you chose danish language in the rom as well? Are the shortcuts in the lockscreens configurable?

Thank you :)

Widgetlocker is a good alternative, its on the market and there are loads of miui slider down themes here on xda.

I will say it isnt free but well worth the money and works a dream on the sgs2

Hope this helps :D

I already use Widget Locker as my lockscreen :) But I guess I have to look closer at the WL themes thread :)

yea the thread is a bit of a mess but worth the effort its like a bargain bin gotta dig through the crap to get to the goodies lol.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] nightranger73:
These locksccreen couldn't be ported. They havent been ported to any stock rom phone. They work for any MIUI port but not on stock.

Use widgetlocker if you want but I don't like having another apps running in background and thus consuming battery only to have a lockscreen. Plus wl could be incompatible with apps tracking the screen unlocked as so it isn't a real lockscreen (embedded in system) but an app that SIMULATES a lockscreen

Just returned from the WL themes thread. Tbh I gave up. It was too hard to get anything good out of it :(

/CK
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] tontje:
Battery times seem alot better then stock (though i didnt charge > 8 times on stock, installed roms straight away. Batt. live seems to improve after first few charges)

The shortcuts are configurable only by changing its path in the xml of the lockscreen, not by MIUI interface.

For me, MIUI is the best rom for SGS2 atm...still waiting for CM tho :)

Nitr8 SGSII ROM has the stock android lockscreen instead of Samsung, he advised me that you can use this old SGS thread and it works.

I don't like miui but I installed it on my desire just to try these lock screens and they are really nice.

Ok, so this isnt really a big deal, but sometimes after I wipe my battery stats then reboot, I get stuck at the White EVO screen. (I know how to fix that, pull the battery and reboot into recovery then restore last backup.) My question is, does this happen to anyone else and is there some type of fix to this?

Again, this doesnt happen all the time and Im not wiping the stats everyday, but for it happen a few times makes me wonder what the deal is.
