[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
If you have anything but a completely stock ROM, the update will fail before it even begins.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
What are you trying to get from the updates?

If you are running a more recent rom, you probably have what was updated already integrated in your custom rom, with perhaps the exception of the new radio in the recent update, but you can find that over in the inspire radio thread, stickied in the dev section. It's the 06.30_M radio.

The other update was to enable sideloading, which you already have because your running a custom rom.

That said, this is your second new thread, please do some research on your own before starting a whole bunch of new threads. It clutters up the forum.

Hi,

i hope somebody can help me.

Yesterday i flashed after AlpharevX an Gingerbreak root a CustomRom called Virtuous Unity 1.27.

All works fine.

Then after a few hours i restored my stock Rom via ClockworkMod Recovery 4.0.0.5.

I had an error with restore cache.

And now it hang up every time i boot my Desire S.

What can i do ?

Now i can go into ClockworkMod but if i want wipe Data, it hang up.

Well im looking for a relatively nice headset to use with my thunderbolt, ive never actually owned a bluetooth headset before but i think its time for me to get one. The reviews on that one are really good and the price is great as well. Can't argue with a 61% savings.

I was looking at a jawbone headset (hence the link) but im just curious has anybody here actually used a jawbone headset, that could give me a review? Or if you haven't are there any other bluetooth headsets you'd recommend getting? im looking to spend no more than 50$ on a headset, but i want something thats going to last me a few years (with being taken care of extremely well) I think thats about it, any kind of advice would be helpful :)

Thanks in advance

Ok,

Just looking for some general advice here regarding the video recording side of things with the samsung galaxy s2.

This is the first time ever I have had a phone where I am totally blown away with the video quality of the phone and it has now led me to wonder about a few things.

If I were going away on holls or whatever I am on the understanding the phone will record at 1080p for a total of 4gb per recording clip. Please advise me if I am wrong here :o

If I am right saying this, approx how many minutes of recording time will I get from 4gb?

Finally, is there a maximum size that the phone will accept for the micro sd card, presently have a 16gb card in the phone, but I guess it would accept 32gb in place of the 16gb?

Cheers for any replies in advance ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gz023247:
Ok, so after a bit more digging there seems to be an issue if you record over 2gb of video footage :(

Seems if you go over 2 gig then you will have problems transferring the footage to a pc.....but if you record less than 2 gig then you are ok.

Also it would seem that around 2 gig is about 15mins recording time.

If I am wrong I am sure someone will advise.
[Galaxy S II General] Tsais:
Just wondering...

Does this mean we can bake an SGS2 ROM with Android 3.2 now, or are the listed caveats insurmountable?

Android 3.2 source code available

As usual, and just like we had done before for Android 3.0 and 3.1,

the source code for the GPL and LGPL components of Android 3.2 is

available in the Android Open-Source Project, under the tag

android-3.2_r1

The process to build it is the same as what we had for 3.0 and 3.1:

# start from a master client

repo init -m 3.2-base.xml

repo sync

repo forall -c git checkout android-3.2_r1

# build with the regular process

# to come back to a plain master

repo init -m default.xml

repo sync

The caveats are unchanged since 3.1:

-the checkout command will return an error message because the tag

doesn't exist in all projects, ignore it.

-the compiled isn't any more likely to work on actual hardware as 3.1

did, since the same binary incompatibilities are still there.

DEFINITELY A DXJPE BUG....although I don't experience any problem with gps,but then I only use gps in Maps.....I even installed GPS TEST and it was ok.

Does anyone know when this is scheduled if it even is?

[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
Nobody really knows. I know VZW already included some of the fixes of 2.3.3 into the 2.3.2 versioning on the R800x. I'm thinking that largely this phone will be abandoned. The VZW appshop is already a travesty even when it works, GameLoft refuses to allow our model into the WAP Shop (you have to fake as an R800i or R800a to get in). Personally I think this is mostly due to Verizon and not SonyEricsson.

i know i could search but you mentioned it got a link? :D
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:

That is the link for the R800x (shortened to remove the hitID and sID and provider strings). If you alter that phoneID # to be other things, it shows up as other phones. I had stumbled upon what the phoneID was for R800i, but I forgot to write it down or bookmark it (silly me).
[Xperia Play General] JasonKnight:
thanks but no matter what I put in it keeps changing it to R800x
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
http://wapshop.gameloft.com/php5/us...e342&page=verizon&sv6375=0103614150e14551e3e6

That is the full string... however in this one I changed the phoneID from 5186 to 5185. This changed the "detected" phone model to the Samsung GT-P7510. So the rest of the strings may be neccessary. try using it on the computer and cycle numbers until you find the R800i model.

That is unless somebody would be willing to look it up on their UK/European version of the GameLoft site and kindly provide the phoneID=#### string from the URL...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] wewoapsiak:
It shouldn't be too much work. 90% of it would be swapping png files into a g2x cm7 build. A few .xml files to get some things like the ringer volume bar to be the correct color. I don't have time right now to play with it, perhaps after finals, but honestly you could probably do the same thing by making your own at UOT Kitchen or searching the main android theme forum for minimalistic theme chooser themes.

and then they are visible

for example hex 0xad20000 is decimal 181534720, which divided by 1024 equals to 177280 (e.g. the 177280k(userdata) )

about modules, i use following not included in the stock:

jbd, ext*, overclock, tun, (and some cpu governors)

Also when i was on eclair, i used jit, dalvik-cache was on /cache partition, was able to move all the apps on sdcard (slow), was able to "link" selected (usually big and not often used ones) files to the sdcard.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
All kernel modules loaded without kernel.

But some kernel features like swap or thumbee are not kernel-module... they in kernel itself...

So..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I don't think we have any way to change boot parameters because they are signed. :D In fact when I was testing with fastboot, I tried changing the kernel parameters in Motorola's boot.img and nothing changed. I decided that Motorola's kernels also ignore boot parameters entirely. Other than fastboot, the first point we can hijack anything is when the boot process first executes something from /system which limits our ability to repartition...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] peshovec:
agree...

with my limited experience with embedded devices i suppose folowing:

the bootloader loads the so called initrd.img and kernel.img.

Then in very early boot process the mtd partition are created (if needed:).

After that the control is passed to the kernel...

:) may be that was not bad:) i mean if you give different layout of the mtd flash, then your filesystem data will be very likely mismatched (e.g. not useful readable).

But let me clarify: You have tried to modify the mtd parameters? and nothing happens?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] appagom:
If these things are like samsung, if the filesystem is not readable,they get reformatted early on bootup (at least /data and probably /cache). So early repartitioning /cache and /data wouldn't cause big problems if you managed out how to do it. But doing it with fastboot doesn't interest me much anyway. Of course that reformatting is also big part of the problem. If you manage to repartition later in the bootup (which should be possible right?) things will get reformatted on next bootup before you can get control again.

One bad idea is to hijack recovery mode (which maybe doesn't do that?) and use it as a normal boot mode. Pressing some key combo is better than needing a PC, however, if you ever forgot to press the combo, you get reformatted.. ouch. There does seem to be no nice way out if you're interested in changing the /data or /cache partitioning or fs. For everything else, work on user-friendly late module loading schemes seems much more useful than fastboot. Ok not everything.. fjfaclon makes a good point clearly, but fastboot is not solution as far as I care (of course if others find it useful, I have not complaint).

I get that Mioze7ae probably wants to reallocate memory for /cache and /data, but is there a compelling reason to reformat /data on this device to ext or something? On samsung, rfs (their proprietary fs) was a bit slow (I'm not as critical of it as many, I think it was just set up very safe.. in the end ext4 is not that much faster if setup just as safe... but that's a flame war for another forum) .
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] appagom:
Oh one more point... Even if boot paramters aren't doing the partitioning is it entirely clear that it's in the kernel image? Maybe it's hidden somewhere else. With samsung's flash tool there was a pit file separate from the kernel image and not usually required for flashes. That was responsible for defining the partitioning, but it was never clear to me that anyone ever really understood how.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Well, I don't know definitively, but this is why I'm pessimistic about the theory that the partition table is stored outside boot.img. I work a lot with two sbfs. The CBW 2.1 Milestone XT720 and the SKT 2.2.1 Motoroi XT720. These differ in partition structures. Both will run fine on Milestone XT720 if you flash the entire image, but if you take the kernel from one and use nandroid to install it on the other, it doesn't work. To me this indicates that the partition table structure is inside boot.img somewhere. As a practical matter whether it's inside the kernel or the initramfs doesn't matter. A long time ago, I tried using boot parameters on fastboot to get the kernels to boot on the opposite sbfs and I couldn't get it to work. It's possible I was doing it wrong though. At the time we were using the mot_boot_mode hijack (that's still widely used here). There is a sh_hijack that I've been using later that happens very much earlier in boot. Perhaps that could make a difference, but at the time I didn't know to investigate that.

Also, recovery is signature checked on XT720, so we can't touch it. The security on XT720 is much closer to DroidX than it is to Milestone A853.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] appagom:
sh sounds like a really good hijack, might be early enough to mess with /data and /cache. mount might also work. Clearly if filesystems are checked/reformatted before /system is mounted, then there's no hope.

I thought recovery called stuff from /system, but that's probably my ignorance. Anyway, probably no need to beat this bad idea (the recovery idea) any more dead regardless.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Vistaus:
Have you ever deodexed the thing? On the Defy they deodexed everything on some ROMS. Have you tried that on our XT720 already?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I've never quite understood what is meant with deodexing. From what I understand an odexed ROM has *.odex files external to the apks instead of *.dex inside the apks? Is that right? If so, I don't think any of the XT720 ROMs are odexed. None of the XT720, XT701 or A853 ROMs I have contain *.odex files. I did download a stock Defy ROM at one point and it did have *.odex files. Maybe Motorola only odexes MotoBlur ROMs? Or am I totally on the wrong path? The disadvantage of odex is that they're difficult to theme? Or is there another disadvantage?

Creating a Ad-hoc network in Xperia X10

Its quite simple.

there's two ways to do this.

1. Install PDAnet software from the android market in your phone and install the same in your PC. connect the USB cable from your phone to the PC and enable USB tether in PDAnet software. You will have a PDAnet icon in the systems tray in the your PC, right click on it and click on connect. You will be connected to the internet. that's it.

2. This is quite simple compared to other one. install Barnacle USB tether. Keep in mind that this software will work only if your phone's rooted. Install this software from android market. what this software does is that it will make your phone a portable hotspot, it becomes a wireless Router. you can give it a name to your network also enable encryption. turn the wireless on in your PC, scan and connect, you are good to go. you are on internet.

I use the second method, its very easy and simple.
