Folder Organizer and Desktop Visualizer where also suggested to me when I asked.

Although I don't use any of them. It would still be nice if there was a way to natively set custom icons.

I do use Circle Launcher and that lets me set a custom icon for the each widget and I have multiple instances of the widget (each with various shortcuts inside) so on that level it sates my need for custom icons.

Hello,

What is the voltage value for 0% and 100% in galaxy 3?

I have 3500mV when I get battery % to 3.

Can somebody provide me with info about battery % along with voltage?

Thanks

Which sense Rom has the best battery life? I'm currently using leedroid GB but it has poor battery life.

I would say either InsertCoin 1.1.4 Stable or SuperNova Extreme Gingerbread. Only stock 2.1 Sense ROMs seem to have the best battery life. From my personal experience, Sense 3.0 and 3.5 ROMs drain like there's no tomorrow.

According to my personal experience, InsertCoin may help you as the battery can be used for one and a half day with moderate use (texting in daytime)

Snes9x EX and MD.emu are much much better emulators that are supported on the marketplace. Built in controller options, sprite filters, much better sound and graphics support, Xoom support, and a few other things. The Genesis emu might support Sega CD games in the future. Just throwen it out there.

Wtf? Snesoid works like a charm. Your title sounds like there are viruses in these apps
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Legato Bluesummers:
Never had any issues using SNES, NES, Genesis, or whatever OID emulators on my xoom. Sorry you are having issues.

But yes, your title does make it sound like you shouldn't use them because they are bad/malware. that isn't true, it is just an opinion. Plus if the OIDs all got removed by google, what makes you think these wont get removed too?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
Gensoid as always had some minor graphics issues. For example, play Sonic 2 Chemical Plant zone. When you go even little bit in the water the whole screen, even what isnt under water, turns purple. Some games arent playable.

Snesoid doesnt support stereo sound, and he's illegally charging for it. He's using the SNES 9x source code.

There are Xoom supported emulators, with over all better emulation, and more features, from a better developer. Why wouldnt you want to support him? The SNES emulator is free anyway.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
The oids were removed because of a combination of the titles (like psx4droid was removed because it has psx in the title, and fpse is still up), having sega and nintendo ip titles in the screen shots, and because of his rom finder app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefox73:
I've had big issues with my WiFi not working ("Error" message) after rooting.

Not sure if it was something to do with a PIT file or not.

I've spent considerable time installing CF Roots and ROMs and now I can think of nothing else to do but return the phone.

The phone was from Three and was network locked. I removed the network lock and flashed it from KE2. I don't know whether putting the network lock on it again is simple?

Can anyone tell me how I prepare the phone, so that it returns with the same firmware as stock and how to make sure the counter does not show that any flashing has occurred to void the warranty?

Appreciate your help. Ideally someone will have a full 3 backup online. If possible, could you give links to any examples, thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Install original 3 firmware >> either your saved original or from branded roms post dev section .

Reset custom rom counter to zero if needed .

Binary rom counter post dev section .

Pit file should not have cased a problem but its not used unless instructs say to use it .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefox73:
Thanks for the reply.

I've flashed the stock 3 firmware/kernel but it's still NOT network locked. I can s put my O2 card in the phone and it works. Therefore I presume that there must be more than just these flashings required.

Also I've looked on the dev thread and it appears that you have to buy a jig to reset the counter. I have no problem buying one but I'm very much pushed for time with the retailers return date arriving before a potential jig could. Is there a Odin flash that can be done to remove the counter?

I upgraded to official LG V20C Gingerbrad 2.3.3 and now the compass doesn't work at all. The compass ever shows about 180 degrees. If I rotate the phone the compass rotates with it showing always 180 degrees. In other words it doesn't track North at all. It just stays pointing in the same direction and turns with the phone, like it was stuck. I've tried every compass app I can find and have calibrated it over and over and still the same issue.

A my friend has the same problem.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

Someone has the same problem?

Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
The calibration apps are completely useless. Take your phone in your hand and move it like this in front of you about 3 times:

If it does not work - sorry, nothing that could be fixed.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] IceFragmatic:
just to clarify the previous post...

do NOT just move the phone in a figure 8 patern with it still pointing in the same direction...you need to move the phone so that sometimes the top of the phone is pointing away from you and sometimes toward you....does that make sense?

Ice
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alex.merk:
With V10A_00 (Android 2.2) or V10E_00 (Android 2.2.2) any movement I should make calibrated compass, with V20C_00 no movement calibrate it. Therefore augmented reality apps (Street view, Google Sky Map, some games, etc...) no works fine. I reinstalled 2.2.2 and everythings works.

No one has the same problem?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Vonpire:
I have exactly the same problem as described here.

Compass will work after a rebbot (not always) but then when it gets the abnormal magnetic interference message it stops using the magnetic sensor and reacts to tilts!!

Only a reboot can't ix it after. It appears this is a common bug in gingerbread roms well known.

The weirdest thing is that doesn't happen on another lg p500 with same rom and kernel.

Ideas Anyone?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Vonpire:
Well I have my compass running for a complete day now without failures.

I guess the wipe rotate settings on amun rah recovery has done the trick, although I am not completely sure about it. The truth is that it never had so much time running correctly since I updated to ginger.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Vonpire:
New Info :

The bug returned and I finally found a way to get rid of it.

When your compass does not work just close compass apps, make a call (to voicemail for example) and... IT WORKS AGAIN!

Weird...

This is a build of the stock AOSP in version 2.3.4 (branch android-2.3.4_r1). The following changes were made:

* Imported vendor blobs from Google's GRJ22

* Added Maps.apk from Google's GRJ22, plus NetworkLocation.apk, com.google.android.maps.jar and com.google.android.maps.xml from gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip

* Replaced development/data/etc/apns-conf.xml with apns-conf.xml from Google's GRJ22

* Replaced the default AOSP keys in build/target/product/security/ with new keys to block malware signed with the default keys

* Rooted with Superuser.apk and su from dsixda-Android-Kitchen-24616e7 (version 0.170-0-g24616e7)

* Added busybox from dsixda-Android-Kitchen-24616e7 (version 0.170-0-g24616e7)

* Compiled kernel with the default configuration (herring_defconfig) from http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/samsung.git;a=summary

This ROM has been tested on the i9023. I can not provide any guarantee it will work on another model.

Ok, GPS is not working. Looks like Maps.apk by itself is not sufficient to get it working right, maybe I missed an additional lib or app.

[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
To run alpharev, you need root access. If you have root access (probably with using unrevoked), you have a revovery with witch you can backup your current system.

So it should be. But due to my model I can't flash recovery. All that happens is after selecting recovery in CWM the screen goes black and I have to take tje battery out to start the phone. I done some research on tje web and it is due to the model of desire I have. UNREVOKED does not take s-off. I know I have to use alpharev to correct it but ad I can't flash recovery I am nervous to try. Any suggestions?

[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
Clockwork does not work with pvt4 desires. You have to flash amonra recovery.

Sent from Oxygen
[Desire General] copernicus666:
aaaaaa!! was looking at that, so i flash amonra and i can then flash recover. good. i canthen take the risk using alpharev. will the ruu work with pvt4 and the hboot that i havegot. saw something that indicates that it may need downgrading?
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
Yes, the ruu will work with your phone.

But i think you getting something wrong:

You cannot backup your hboot with recovery. If the s-off procedure by alpharev fails, your phone might be bricked. Now backup can protect you from this, because the bootloader (which gets changed in this s-off procedure) is the absolute base of your phone. If this one is bricked, your phone is not more than a paperweight.
[Desire General] copernicus666:
in the meantime i have managed to replace CWM with AmonRa. I now have a current rom back up. If some thing goes wrong with the alpharev procedure, will this recovery image allow me to restore to the current state i have now. It sounds like it won't if i am getting you correctly?
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
The s-off procedure does not touch your phone or rather its current state.

I do not write the same thing a second time. My second last past answered your question. Maybe it's too late. ;)
[Desire General] copernicus666:
just making sure. sounds risky can i flash custom roms without the s-off?
[Desire General] kirior:
HI, i just would like to say that i have desire PVT 4 from 3 in uk as well and CWM have always worked for me. I guess than im lucky or just not every device is same.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
I've downloaded and applied a few themes from this thread (applied via cm7 Theme Chooser), but for some reason the themes only change the phone's appearance partially. In the screenshots for example, you've got a new lockscreen, the market is different and the main dock is a different colour. But when I apply these themes, none of those change, nor do I know how to change them. No option to do so in the settings of ADW nor CM7 menu...

Am I doing something wrong?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dislplin01:
you should look thru the post the lock screen changes are usually zip files and wont work cause they are mdpi and i think we are hdpi you can reaserch it im pretty sure but i could be wrong thats also why the rest of the themes dont work if you want to ask you should ask the thread you pulled the themes from
[Optimus One, P500, V General] alex.vidi:
Try to make a reboot after aplying a theme. Mine are all working great.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
No, I think our device is mdpi, because hdpi themes don't work. I also tried to reboot but it didn't help... I dunno...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
Eh...

- first of all, reboot is required after changing themes, unless you use Notification Restart app

- second, this device is MDPI obviously, Google it

- additional mods, such as the lockscreen, do require patching of framework via MetaMorph or ZipThemer. This can only be done on deodexed ROMs. mik's ROM is not deodexed by default, you need to deodex and reflash it yourself.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
1. I use notification restart app.

2. Isn't that what I just said?

2. I didn't know that, but I have already used MetaMorph to change the lockscreen.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
Well, that obviously will not work correctly, as explained. Best case it will bail out, worst case it will mess up the files.

P.S. I sincerely do NOT advise to use the MetaMorph app, since it does not backup anything, and the way it patches and "reboots" the device is just a nice WTF. ZipThemer is way safer and way more controllable.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
Well as I understand it only messes with the lockscreen files, so even if someone manages to mess everything up with it, it's easy to fix.

But thanks, I'll try ZipThemer instead :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
It can mess up anything from framework-res.apk to SystemUI.apk to Phone.apk to overwriting your system fonts (big thumbs down to Android font "management") and even more - all depending on the scope of customization done in the mod.

ZipThemer:

1/ Shows you exactly which files will be modified.

2/ Makes a flashable backup of them.

3/ Makes a flashable ZIP for the mod.

4/ Does not half-reboot your device, making you wonder WTH is going on.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebawp:
Okay, so a few years ago I successfully rooted my boyfriend's G1 and swore never again to go anywhere near the process.

However, said phone has now been given to my boyfriend's dad, and he's managed to install a couple of custom roms. In the last week though, he's totally screwed it up. Didn't seem to follow any sort of backing up process, or can even tell me what tutorial he was following to get it in this state.

The phone hangs at the splash screen. I can get into fastboot/hboot but there are only a few options available.

SPL is 1.33.0006 which I can gather is bad from my reading.

Hboot info is:

Dream PVT 32B Ship S-on

Hboot - 1.33.0006 (Dream11000)

CPLD-4

Radio-2.22.19.261

I have tried:

Initially I just tried going into recovery mode (I think that's what it's called - home & power) and wiping the data to see if that stopped the screen hanging. It didn't.

Putting rc7 dreamimg.nbh on the phone and loading via hboot/fastboot. When I do this it fails saying 'Main version is older.'

After doing some searching, I see someone mentioned this would mean you need to use the goldcard method. I vaguely remember having to do this a few years back on the phone when I rooted it the first time.

I go through the process, following an unlockr tutorial (can't post the link - sorry).

However, I get the same response through fastboot - 'main version is older'.

At this point I decided to try flashing a recovery image via the adb. Go through the process of installing everything etc. but when it came to installing the usb drivers for the phone, it failed although it did install the htc bootloader. I checked using adb devices command to see if it was picking anything up and it was however, when I go into the command prompt and try to do anything I just get a <remote: not allow> message.

It's only after I look for <remote: not allow> message error that I understand that 1.33.0006 is a 'perfect' SPL, and explains why I can't really do anything.

I really didn't want to resort to forum posting (one of the reasons I swore never to go near the G1 again after rooting was because I *know* I'm not tech savvy enough to be messing around with this stuff), but after spending around 6 hours over two days on this I'm absolutely stumped. The problem is, I'm stubborn so I hate to give up after spending so much time on the stupid thing (bye bye flexi day), so if anyone has any suggestions, or if they could just tell me it's a lost cause then it might help.

Thanks for your time...
