Anyone able to confirm UK layout? I'm sure it is, I just don't like that all the pictures are US layout.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] salbalboa:
mine should be in tomorrow so i will let you know about the layout .
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dubge:
Is there something wrong with doing that?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] salbalboa:
dock as just arrived today and it is the uk layout an also a b60 version.

alot heavyier than i was expecting but looks solid so far.

all in all im impressed but there is still keyboard lag when typing this which is annoying.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Digital.Diablo:
I ordered one from (LambdaTek on Friday evening and it says stock reserved in the warehouse, awaiting shipping. Obviously Lambda and CCL are using the same warehouse stock as the stock numbers seem to match (36 at time of posting) :D

Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow/Wednesday.

As an aside, does it come with another power supply, or is that too much to ask for my £100?? Not that I feel properly ripped off by Asus mind. :rolleyes:
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] salbalboa:
nope just the keyboard and some paperwork.

got to say im very impressed with it so far.

1% battery drain in 4 hours of standby on the dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Digital.Diablo:
Yeay, it arrived from Lambatek this morning - confirmed its the UK keyboard and its a B60.

All out of stock now though.

You may need to create a goldcard so that you can flash RUU files on your phone. Do you know which IncredibleS model you have?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rick_B:
Hi everyone! I'm new to Android. I recently bought a T-Mobile G2X / LG-P999, flashed the recovery partition with NVFlash (ClockworkMod) and installed CyanogenMod 7 (nightly). It's working great so far. My question is this: is it possible to flash only the /system partition at a later time with a newer build of CM7? For example, there is a Netflix app available that allows non-approved devices to connect to Netflix. I've tried installing this, but am suffering from the "chipmunk" problem where both the video and audio play back too fast. I read somewhere that an update the the media layer may fix this. It would be convenient to update the entire system partition once newer releases / fixes come out to address problems like this, without wiping out my data.

Also, I've noticed that most of the partitions are listed as ext3 when running mount to view mounted partitions. This seems to be in conflict with what apparently should be the yaffs2 file system. Is CM7 using ext3 instead of yaffs2? I found some source code I compiled that allowed the extraction of the factory G2X ROM dumps, which seemed to be yaffs2 (I did this because I wanted to reinstall the NFS Shift game that ships with the G2X). I suppose it's possible that the original ROMs could be in yaffs2 format, while CyanogenMod defaults to ext3.

Sorry if these are easy questions, but I am really excited about learning more about this OS and doing a little development of my own!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rick_B:
No advice, eh? Well, I'll simplify the question. :)

If I'm flashing nightly CyanogenMod builds, I'd like to be able to update them every few days, weeks, etc. However, I don't want to have to erase my data so I'd like to only flash the /system partition without touching anything else.

The CyanogenMod zip file contains a system.img, which is what I need to replace /system on my device. However, Clockwork Mod Recovery only has options for flashing complete zip files. Is it possible, perhaps, to just take system.img and zip it? Will ClockworkMod Recovery then only flash the /system partition?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rick_B:
I figured it out, so I'll post my findings:

CyanogenMod nightly zip files contain only boot (kernel) and system files. So, by booting into ClockWorkMod Recovery and choosing "install zip from sdcard," you can update to a new nightly without affecting user data. I assume only the boot.img and /system files are updated. This is what I did, and it seemed to work fine. None of my data was affected!

Hi guys, does Kies store downloaded firmware on hard diisk or can i put a firmware somewhere on the hdd so that kies can detect it.. Disconnects at some point while downloading firmware and hv to restart download..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
does Kies store downloaded firmware on hard disk

Yes in TEMP folder for about 30 seconds before it starts to install .

can i put a firmware somewhere on the hdd so that kies can detect it

Worth a try from memory its either the temp folder on root of C drive or a new TEMP folder on C drive ..

Really clever users use Odin to flash stock firmware .

Also check the Check Fus thread and original carrier branded post in dev section.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaassema:
C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Local\Temp\Binary\GT-I9100

(on Win7)

Kies nowadays pre-downloads your firmware, and stores it there... so it definitely stays longer than 30 secs, no hurry there mate ;-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You actually checked that as last time i checked Kies downloads yes to temp folder file can be copied . Once update starts file has gone .

Possible later Kies holds the download longer .

Big advantage if it does stay long enough to copy but in the past if you have not grabbed before update starts its gone .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaassema:
What KIES does nowadays: it checks for updates for your phone, even when it is not connected; When it finds an update, it will download it, and give you a pop-up stating there's new firmware for your phone...

Most likely the firmware still gets deleted after updating, but then again: who needs the firmware after a succeeded update ;-) I can't test this for my self, since I'm a custom-rom user...

ps) it might be that I've checked some box somewhere in the past, enabling KIES to do this...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Thats good likewise i cannot use Kies .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boboev:
Just out of curiosity, I decided to check where does Kies store the Firmware in Windows XP. So, here's the path:

C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Temp\Binary\GT-I9100

A side question. The firmware file stays there with no extension. Even if I try to rename it to .tar or .zip it cannot be opened. Is there some simple way to "extract" the firmware file from its storage place?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_S_G:
I cannot find the .....binary directory

I cannot find the directory noted in the quote above. I have a folder named: C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Local\Temp\KiesLiveupdateTemp

In it is only a file named PlugInHost.XML which contains the following text:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

- <PluginHost>

</PluginHost>

So where is the file that contains the upgrade to ICS?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kumki:
Same here. I am on window 8. All I have is pluginHost.xml under the kiesliveupdatetemp folder. I just updated by GT-8013 via Kies. Could not locate the actual firmware files.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghnogueira:
Same here. Is that file usable?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyren:
Actually i find the downloaded file here:

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp9A2D.tmp.zipfolder\I9505XXUAME2_I9505OXXAMDB_I9505XXUAME2_HOME.tar.md5

And pretty sure this is the right file, you can open it using 7-zip and see the files inside like boot.img etc....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
That's nice and all but why go through all this hassle? Flashing that file(which you can manually download faster than through the Kies downloader) through Odin gets it done faster and better, and it wouldn't even void warranty.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyren:
Very true but I had already started and did not think it would take so long.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghnogueira:

Hey guys,

where does kies store downloaded apps from the samsung apps store?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akkhaing:
tem FW file from KIE

May be my reply is too late.

I found an answer somewhere in XDA forum and tried it.

I found tmp file in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\

it is like tmp9A2D.tmp ( ranging file size from 200 MB to 900 MB depend on HP and FW type)

it is unpacked into a zip folder with exactly same name as tmp file in same location during update.

when hp is connected to PC in "download mode" Kies unpack tmp file and transfer to HP and upgrade it.

I did manage to copy zip folder before if finish upgrading process.

keep an eye on status windows, let it finish unpacking, copy zip folder once it start transferring it to UP , it show green arrow directing from PC to HP showing percentage of work done.

folder is deleted automatically once upgrade process finish

Good luck

---------- Post added at 06:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 AM ----------

YOU are right, it is the one. Only thing is that is is availabe for a few minutes only while Kies is transferring those files and upgrade HP. the whole folder is deleted after that.

you can copy that folder and save somewhere in HDD for future use.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfive420:
I know this is an old post, but where can you download a firmware manually faster than Kies can? Kies downloads it in minutes . Sammobile, for free accounts, takes hours.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saber:
There is no other way to download firmware manually faster than kies unless someone uploads the files onto a different mirror.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zangdak:
So, some of you gave some paths where the ROM downloaded by Kies can be found. But does somebody know the format of this file?

Then, If I can locate and copy this file, can I use it in order to upgrade my smartphone without re-download it?

I mean, I have several device I would like to upgrade and I don't want to download the upgrade for all of them, as they are exactly the same device. I know I could do it via Odin but for personnal reason, I don't want to use Odin.

Thanks ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JesterDoobie:
BEST way to accomplish your goal is thru Odin, dude, Kies is mostly the "end-user" photo-mp3 transfer software. AFAIK there is NO way to transfer the firmware from one Kies instance to another, it gets stored in a randomly named .tmp folder and is deleted after use. IDK about original file format, I grabbed a copy of mine after Kies extracted what it DL'ed and it was in .tar format.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m7m8m9:
Exact file name and location can be tracked with help of Resource Monitor of Windows. Simply open "Disk" tab and sort "Disk Activity" section by "Write (B/sec)" column.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billa:
So Kies / Smart Switch does in fact store an encrypted copy of the firmware in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\<some.temp>

and a companion file WNF-<model#>_<version#>.zip which contains some flashing tools specific to this model.

Question is how to unpack/decode the firmware without actually installing it, maybe using the flashing tool files??

This would be really useful for some firmware which are not available for direct download from other file servers.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhydank:
Before installation complete ( 1-100 % ) , copy the folder tmpxxx.tmp.zipfolder . This folder is automatically created by samsung kies3 , you do not need to change anything in the folder. After tmpxxx.tmp.zipfolder folder is copied , you can use it with the help Odin3 .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiriakos-GR:
I found this topic by me worrying if Kies keeps a permanent copy of any firmware update, which this it is a waste of hard disk space.

I am glad that it is not work that way.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bibo3002:
I found the update file downloaded by kies 3.0 in this folder C:\Windows\Temp
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxxrisad:
For my case, I found the firmware file at

C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpB95.tmp.zipfolder

If u don't find the updated firmware file at some "tmpXXX.tmp.zipfolder" of "Temp" directory then just search for the file extension of *.tar or *.md5

Btw, I was on kies3, win10 and my phone was SGS4 (E300s)

However, i flashed that file via odin and it was successful :o

100 -150 (800mv) maybe a lil unstable???

Hi! I'm a noob with a newby question.... plz help.

I have just been given a XDA EXEC (UNIVERSAL) and the wi fi just seems too confusing :/ what is WPA-PSK, WPA, shared and Open? I have bt home hub, all i want is the screen to enter the wireless key :( i dont understand all the option...... I mean, it is wi fi I want and not wireless lan?

Thank you in advance and I will use the thank you button, I have found that!

:)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Hakim Rahman:
WPA ( Wifi Protected Access ) is a more robust security technology for Wi - Fi network than WEP. This provides strong data protection by using encryption and strong access control and user authentication. WPA uses encryption keys 128 - bits and dynamic session keys to ensure the privacy of your wireless network and security companies.

There are two basic forms of WPA:

- WPA Enterprise ( requires a Radius server )

- WPA Personal ( also known as WPA - PSK )

Either can use TKIP or AES for encryption. Not all WPA hardware supports AES.

WPA - PSK is basically an authentication mechanism in which the user provides some form of credentials to verify that they should be allowed to access the network. This requires a single password entered into each node (WLAN Access Points, Wireless Routers, client adapters, bridges ). During game password, the client will be given access to the WLAN.

Encryption mechanisms used for WPA and WPA - PSK are the same. The only difference between the two is in the WPA - PSK, authentication is reduced to a simple common password, instead of a specific user credentials.

Pre - Shared Key ( PSK ) mode of WPA is considered vulnerable to the same risks as any other shared password system - dictionary attacks for example. Another problem might be key management difficulties such as removing a user once access has been granted where the key is shared among multiple users, it is not possible in the home environment.
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
Some people have been reporting that the carrier billing option no longer shows for them in the new version of the market. This very issue happened to me as well, but there is a fix. Here it is:

Open application management > select the market app > force close it > clear cache > clear data > turn off wifi (if its on) > make sure you have 3g/4g signal (not edge) > open market and except the terms

Carrier billing will be working again, just give the market a min. to finish syncing your account by leaving the main page open (again just like a min). Now verify it worked by checking any US app (apps produced outside the US can't be billed to tmo).
[HTC Sensation] dcwiker05:
Hasnt fixed the issue for me :'(
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
Are you sure you followed the instructions exactly? One piece out of place and it won't work. This method worked for me and I can even repeat it 100% of the time (if you uninstall the update and reinstall it you have to do this again to get it working). Not to mention it has worked for other users.
[HTC Sensation] Noty661:
This worked for me, thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
if the vendor is not US based I don't think you can bill to Tmo...

also, on the confirmation page, hit the credit card line. you'll get a pop up with a choice of either to bill your credit card or tmo.

sometimes people miss that part...
[HTC Sensation] kevsteele:
POST CORRECTION: It works. As Mainspring pointed out, if you try to buy an app from a non-US based vendor, you can't charge to your T-Mobile US account. Just tried a few different apps, and sure enough - one of them let me buy by charging to my T-Mobile account.

A good clue is the pricing - if it's something like $.99, it's probably a US vendor, while something like $1.39 is most likely a vendor outside the US.

Seems to be new to this version of the Market - I seem to recall being able to charge ANY app to my T-mo account, not just US based apps...
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
did you miss this in the first post: ;)
[HTC Sensation] dcwiker05:
Read it later Pro is the app that I tried to buy to test if this fixed my phone and I can not buy it on my phone but I work for T-Mobile and tested the same app on demo phones and co-workers phones and they can bill that app to their account. So I'm not sure why it wont work for my phone :( and as far as I know I did it exactly how I'm suppose to by fallowing the instructions, even tried multiple times so I have no idea what I am doing wrong :(
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
Hmmm, wonder what's wrong. I just checked that app in my market and I can bill it to my tmobile account...very strange.
[HTC Sensation] dcwiker05:
Yeah I'm not sure I'm starting to think it's something T-Mobile screwed up. They added Family Allowances to my account (Bro downloaded $63.96 in apps on his Nokia!!) but it's set up that my line can still download with no limitations on my end and they said it was right on theirs too.

Worst part is they took it off now and I still cant bill to the account even after trying this, uninstalling updates then trying this again, fresh install of the old market and trying this AGAIN! I'm gonna be pissed if I can no longer bill to the account. T-Mobile is looking into it but they blame Google/Android which isn't true cuz I signed my account into a dummy phone at work and it was fine.
