Hi

I have an optimus dual p990 ( ics ) , this app works great!!!

One problem is the trackpad

It doesn't work fully 360°...for example when i enter the browser, the arrow of the navigation goes up, down, right, left..not 360°

I hope you understand me...

Thanks

How can I run this app on a small screen device? I have a LG e610 running CM11 Beta 6 and when I install the ported apk it says my screen is too small, but there's a dude running it on an p990. Please help!
[Android Apps and Games] droide_volante:
The small size is about the resolution:

-lg e610= 320x480

-lg p990 ( my phone)= 800x480

on the 320x480 device, the samsung app maybe can be have a issue....

Hey guys,

does the ported app works for someone with a F8090 model in Dual View?

because with the 4.1.9 PlayStore Version on my S4 it works fine but in the ported 4.0.5 I don't have the dual view Option.

So does someone get it to work with a f8090?

Hi,

The problem is following:

The policy in our company is to allow to use ActiveSync client only on devies like

When i opened request to get access to my mails using my phone. i configured on my Nexus One everything and i got access to my mails. The system administrator very fast found out that i access to my mails using Android device and closed to me activesync on exchange server.

Is there a way to simulate device and OS of iPhone or blackberry that sysadmin will not know that anyway i use Android device to read my mails...? Workarounds?

It's silently crashing on me right after entering my email/password. I am rooted so that may have something to do with it.
[Vibrant General] mapinkerton:
Same here.. I'm sure someone with a little extra time on their hands and experience can get it working on stock froyo if it's working on the other galaxy s variants, right?

[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
I was excited to see Netflix appear in market on my 2.2.1 rooted vibrant marked as GT-I9000. But on installing no different from the previous apk i had that is floating around in the internet - crash after login. I doubt if it is a root issue as many are running the market version on rooted GB roms, CM7 and such. May be netflix really need to add support for froyo vibrant ROMs. Bummer!
[Vibrant General] Steprock:
I had the Netflix app up and running with a Cyanogen build. You won't get it running on Froyo - fuggeddaboudit.

I am told that Cyanogen now has a working GPS, so I may grab that. I only ran it for the day and didn't watch a full episode on Netflix; just tried it out and split.

BUT I can confirm that it was really and truly running, letting me check my queue, and streaming. Coolio.

(PS, rooting has nothing to do with it. It just won't work on Froyo. Get a 2.3 build and it should be just fine.)

Ok I am not new to Dev for android... This is my first post here as I am more active at androidforums.... The defy and the Cliq 2 are almost the same stock roms that's why I am asking on the Defy forum..... The C2 has finally gotten a custom recovery thanks to the devs of the defy..... I am working with the dev that made the custom recovery...... but we are at some what of a stand still....

I have created a custom rom based on the stock sbf.... I have broken it apart modified it and recompiled it i flashed it but every way I try I get a bootloader error in every partition.....

The custom recovery is good for backing up and restoring the rom but we can't flash in clockworkmod.....

I have already tried flashing it as a restore and get an error saying checksum missmatch... I have ran the command to redo the checksum and still same message...

My question to you wise defy devs.... can you point me in some direction as to why its giving me such trouble.... I have been researching on how to do it for over a month now....

According to Acer's support site, you'll have to send it back to them for a full reset.

However, if you search the forums there should be a way to push a 'clean' ROM image through a connected PC.

Have a look at installing this app via the Market, it will unlock your device;

Of course, you tablet will need to be linked to the market, and connected to the internet to receive the "Install" intent from the Android Market.

Big BIG problem.

Infotmic FlyTouch 3, temporary root using Z4root.

Replaced boot animation using this tutorial:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-change-customize-create-android-boot-animation-guide/

Used this bootanimation.zip file - AndroidParticles2:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19412696/480x800_AndroidParticles2.zip

Got it from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905538

I put the ZIP file in this folder: /system/media/ - that was probably a very stupid ideea.

Now the tablet is not getting past the boot animation.

In the middle of the animation, there's a 1-2 seconds pause, white screen instead of android robot.

Endless bootanimation loop.

Of course, tried hard reset. Of course, it did not help.

Probably, all my apps and bookmakrs are gone.

Probable solution: flash a custom ROM. But that's really scary.

Any other ideas? Please help, I'm desperate.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hand Solo:
Hate to ask, but did you flash Clockwork Mod Recovery before doing this? Any chance you made a nandroid backup (or even titanium) of your data? If not, you may have lost your stuff. I'm not at all familiar with your phone though.

If all else fails, you could try a program like android explorer (or similar...just search around XDA). I had luck with this previously recovering from a bootloop. It will sometimes recognize your phone (even while bootlooping) and you can go into the files and replace the boot animation with the original. I once tried flashing CWM from this program while bootlooping...and it worked!

Good luck!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] justnewsp:
No backup, no nothing.

Only temporary root using z4root, copy bootanimation.zip to system/media, reboot.

And it's not a phone, it's a tablet.

I dont' care about the apps and data, I already did a hard factory reset and they're gone.

But the system/media folder content is still there.

Hi there,

I am using a German prepaid data plan in my Acer A501. Now I wanted to top it up, but cannot do it. The provider offers two possibilities to enter the cash code:

either call directly from the sim and enter the code or open the dialer and insert a code + cash code.

Ok, both possibilities don't work on the Acer A501 because it cannot call a number, so I can't top it up and it cannot either open a dialer, because it has none.

So now, I am really confused. How can I top the data plan up without having to extract the sim card everytime and put into a phone? Do you have any ideas?
[Acer Iconia A500] Omaticayan:
hi,

same problem here, so welcome.

I fear that there is no solution but to swap the SIM between tab and phone.

In my case I can top up my prepaid account using a credit card. I use Edeka mobil (vodafone.de) and I set up a prepaid credit card (mywirecard VISA), hoping this combination will work next time I want to transfer money to my prepaid internet data plan...

Good luck... to both of us....

[myTouch 4G General] tvotony:
What is dual boot?
[myTouch 4G General] Orical:
In our case it would be the device your using is partitioned for two seperate areas in which two independent Roms are installed, when you first power on the device you get a boot manager that gives you a choice to boot into one or the other.

The issue with doing this with a phone is the two Roms you choose would have to be able to run on the same Kernel. So if your running a Sense Rom and you decided to install an AOSP requiring a different kernel on the other partition you would run into some real issues.

This is completely doable on our device, the question is how important is it for anyone to have and would you mind giving up battery time for the feature, YES this will cause you to drink up some power which is something most Devs work hard on to keep consumption down.

EDIT: You can follow the same instructions here but there maybe a few things you need to do in C for this to work properly I didn't look to far into it, Also I would upgrade the SD Card as your going to have to have 3 partitions so an 8gb will get real crowded quick if you try to do this. The least I would try this with is a 16gb considering all of the files you may have already on your sd card that apps need for cache, pics, storage, ect.

I'll see what I can do with it after I pick up a 32gb sd card but it shouldn't be too hard.
[myTouch 4G General] GazaIan:
That was mentioned in the Desire HD thread. They say if you want to use a Sense and an AOSP ROM, you're going to have to use the Sense kernel and deal with the problems that may occur, like no bluetooth. Additionally, it seems to break Wifi for almost everyone who use it. Nevertheless its freaking awesome, and something I'd love to do.
[myTouch 4G General] jubeh:
There's not much to this and it can be implemented easily. I did it a different way, but the way the guy on that desire HD thread works much more elegant than my way did (although my way allowed for two different kernels).

To understand how this works, you first have to understand the boot process. When you turn on the phone, the bios starts the radio and then the radio starts the SPL which contains the information for partitioning, location of boot on nand, etc.

Unless you interrupt normal spl boot (which would take you to the other two boot options, spl and recovery), the spl looks for the "init" program in the specified boot partition.

This init program can be anything. From a basic linux perspective, it could be a simple script to set-up devices and then just toss user control to a command line (for basic linux usage) or, in Android's case, it runs the init scripts (device.init.rc and init.rc) and has the kernel run the whole Android stack.

What this guy did was make his own init program (I haven't looked at the thing since I'm at work) which, from what I read, is just a small binary, which possibly relies on two different init scripts to boot either from nand (mmcblk0p25) or sdcard (mmcblk1pX [depending on your partitioning]).

The disadvantage to this is that, as he stated, you can only use one kernel, since boot is still starting as normal and the spl is booting to the boot partition which only contains one kernel (you can toss in more, but only one will be started by the spl) and then his init program takes care of the rest of the bring-up.

The way I did it was having two boot images for two different builds, my regular nand rom (which would boot when booting normally) and my SD build (which would boot instead of recovery). All this requires is flashing a boot.img to recovery and then modifying the init.rc to boot from SD (mmcblk1pX) instead of nand. The clear disadvantage, ofcourse, is the loss of recovery, but by using this guy's method, I could have a menu on the SD boot to boot either the SD build or a recovery (means a modified recovery rather than a regular boot.img).

Both options are easily doable on any rooted device. The one thing lacking currently is a recovery that will allow to update.zip install to sdcard (I'd suggest using partitions 4 for system and 5 for data, since 2 and 3 are historically been used for sd-ext and swap).

So you guys can just find a recovery dev, point him to this thread, and show him my post to see if he can make such a recovery (should be easy) and it could become mainstream feature of rooted androids.

I'm triple booted at the moment (I can install 2 more ROMs, but I don't want to) and MIUI is on the SD Card and doesn't recognize my phone.
