Im running cm7.1.0 rl and its branded desire hd and lets me bill to my acct. If it wont let you its because you must have a purchase blocker on. Try buying widgetlocker or rom manager paid edition. They are u.s. Apps. Also just because it shows u.s. Currency when you see the app it doesnt always mean its in u.s. When u go to bill to acct. I had the same problem then realized I was just overlooking those things

MY LG has Modaco Fr17 ROM and Base 405. When i wan't to make a backup with CWM then an error message occured "Can' mount /data". When i want to mount this filesystem then i get also the message error mounting /data. I get the error with CWM 3.2.0.1 an 4.0.0.9. Does someone know the problem and have an solution?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Sounds like a lack of EXT4 support to me.

Try this one: http://www.mediafire.com/file/x2w27b5e4fcb5ey/cwm-4.0.0.5.zip
[LG Optimus 2x] raianj64:
Thx Rusty, i've downlod the cwm4.0.0.5.zip an unzip the file. Same as in the 3.2.0.1 there a install-ext-clockworkmod-windows.bat and install-int-clockworkmod-windows.bat. Sorry, but what do you think, which file must I excute? My LG has:

Baseband: 0135.21_20110405

Kernel: 2.6.32.28-mck-r14-ocuv

Build: FRG83G

LGE-Version: 19/5-11 MoDaco FR17 Fear Edition 10
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Both will work, but if you want to use ROM Manager, then the internal one.
[LG Optimus 2x] raianj64:
thx a lot Rusty, it works fine. Only one warning appears "sd-ext" skipped, but the backup completed. The timestamp of the backup is a month back. Do you know where cwm takes the date?

Thanks, very usefull information :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hoista:
As an addendum.

If you have an OLED device, apps with black backgrounds are much more power efficient. Therefore, switching your background wallpaper to something darker will help battery life.

Screen size is a major factor too, smaller screen, more power efficient.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] trance728:
Another option for editing the syncing in applications are to go into your main settings, the accounts & sync. There it should list he apps that sync and you can change them from there rather than finding each app individually.

Mh, I only see a list of the connected accounts but no list of apps.

Nice clear guide :)

One issue I have now is with Sense 3 ported onto an original HTC Desire.

It has a bigger memory footprint than the stock Sense 1, and the memory cleanup function seems too aggressive, causing it to flush & reload too often, causing big CPU use.

Is there a way to tune memory `harvesting` to be less aggressive for specific apps in stock Gingerbread ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ands2:
You could try this app:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rs.autokiller
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kuraikaze:
Yeah - I'm aware of the various task-killer 3rd party apps.

In my experience they often tend to lead to greater battery consumption as they over-ride the already pretty efficient gingerbread memory management.

I was hoping for a setting inbuilt to GB to just set residence priority higher on the single Sense task.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Xenova:
tune memory `harvesting` to be less aggressive

You can try out "autokiller memoery optimizer". It is a tool to change the value in the android underneath "low memory kill level". Maybe your current "low memory kill level" is too high (e.g. 250, means android will close your app when ur RAM is below 250). You can set it lower so android won't kill your apps too soon.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It fine tunes android systems inner memory manager to keep your device fast over time.

- As a side effect it also lowers battery consumption.

- At certain free memory level (e.g. 250mb), the android os will automatically close those apps not in use (according to original android os logic)

Thanks for this info. I have noticed that on my phone there is no direct way to close applications. Some application close when I use my back button but a lot just stay in memory. I would assume pressing the home button while an application is open will push it to the background. There seem to be no universal close button for applications other than using some application?

There's a built in task killer for stock Galaxy S2. Press and hold the home button, and it will bring up a window with recently accessed apps and a gray bar at the bottom that says "task manager". Click it. It may not be the most graceful solution, but it's there.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 1-0-1:
I have tried the stock task manager as well but I noticed that not all the apps listed are actually being displayed as running in the task manager.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Xenova:
For me, i use free third-party app (e.g. system panel, autokiller memory optimizer. etc) to manually kill some apps i feel that they will consume a lot of CPU time, and themselve won't close down properly (like maps, and other unnessary services).

I don't use "automatic kill function" in app killer because a lot of people claimed that this will kill more battery rather than save battery, as more cpu time needed to respawn the app (as they automatically restart by android)

yes android cannot even the half of all new functions, no need for apps even when you want to crypt your card, they will kick googles ass man. everything includet what a standard user need. no need for tausends of apps that can to all the same thing.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] jake792:
Thanx Tigrouzen for this great info:)

Also if you have that firmware or anyone, can check if there is an inbuilt Office editor since i want to buy Picsel smart office...Thanx in advance.

I cant install that firmware since mine is wave 1:(

@larioteo: Right! Who are so jobless to keep on downloading many bull**** apps like farting app, Fake ECG etc... NO PRODUCTIVITY--> TIME WASTE!!! All useful apps like Ndrive, Picsel smart office, Image editors, apps using GPS(sMove- shows calories burnt, etc..) etc...etc... which mean useful in life are available in bada since long time....Hoping Good memory management with superior multitasking in bada 2.0!

Hola !!!

You need to be tested a new gui to see if you like it.

I can talk you about frame rate like Iphone and voice recognition like a charme, then i dont need to write anything now i use voice engine to make call to write email sms and search !!!

What you want more genious ?

You proposed to return to Bada 1 ?

Don't attack people talking about android

Dokugogagoji is a good developer who always worked on bada

i remember his useful apps Wave tool, Wave VNC , power on/off tool

so he definitively love bada

@Dokugogagoji

I don't get it

Why do you hate this gui??

it is normal that Samsung put touch wiz 4 on our waves as an update
[Bada Software and Hacking General] JailBroKeN88:
The GUI looks very good. This is my opinion and I hope we will get the leaked rom for the Wave I soon....

If Samsung has made a good job with the Multitasking and the other things, bada 2.0 will kill android, probably not but I hope Samsung will stay on the bada trip

Best Regards

[Bada Software and Hacking General] st0rmi:
Nah, I'm also not sure about the gui.

Of course I'm really excited and can't wait to get bada 2 on my wave but it looks like there are a lot of toolbars on top and bottom that are wasting space.

And there are also to many bright colors. I love the simple, dark look of bada 1, especially because you can save batterylife with the amoled and it also looks great because the display doesn't look that limited since you can't see the edges of the screen with pure black :)

But I hope that this is just because the beta-stage or the Wave II firmware (LCD).

And I hope everything can be themed :D can someone please upload the theme.smt from bada 2?^^

Here is the best video review of bada 2.0.1 -

[YOUTUBE]c2nrqeZj7Ig[/YOUTUBE]
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
you can create more screens^^

only drag an app to an new one, widgets are deactivated you can download one but they are not accessable, this feature seems to be missing.

and the left pane is the smart pane this are not widgets. it is selectable in menu homescreen ore live pane.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] Michael_W_L:
hoping widgets can interact with programs, otherwise one of mine will be useless (wmp remote control)

can somebody test allshare? see if it is improved and supports multitasking.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
one thing about multitasking to say, all internal works as ever, and external, there is a point

a developer can decide if the app wil be multitasking capable, he must set it in the manifest.xml multitasking support to yes, if not, then no.

The good thing you can select tools like gps status that they are allowed to turn on gps alone without going to menu. it was after installation automatically addet and it is for version 1.0 as it always was.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
bada supports themes, you can add white icons on a black background, this should be enough that it isnt to candy for you.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] psycoy:

[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
but havent you say tw3 is good? bada 2.0 with black and white icons is the same also the bars everything can set up, in settingsmenu you have lighening blue icons, very stylisch, but i think maybe they also can be changed.

sorry i dont get it, why 2.0 gui is yet more cutomizable.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] abd28xd:
First of all the beta or the first alpha version always has some random , blurry, cheap, stupid, fancy icons! and they are usually changed in the final version because they are the least of the worries and developers have more important jobs to do like improving the OS itself!!

secondly if you do not want the fancy candy-ish look of the OS you could just apply a black or dull background.....and change the icons !!

dont degrade Samsung developers for such a nice work cant you see how much work they have put in to improve the OS

reasons why bada 2.0 final version will have a upper hand above all OSs are that:

1) its fast

2)sophisticated

3)nice UI

4)has the majority of good useful apps

5) popular apps will be converted to bada platform after the bada 2.0 version

and people who are criticising the new bada 2.0 should REALLY get a life

you people cant hit a barn door, or you cant even make a useful application let alone a OS

Stop Criticising Start Appreciating!!!
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
widgets can use now with wac the stock bada gui no extra javascript pictures needet

[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
sorry but i dont get it, why we are aggressive, you said icons or not? we only told you that this is not fix and can be changeable?!?!

Ok but if you dont like the launcher that is another thing than you must use anroid, it is the only os with such things. have you ever said something wrong in an andro forum or ios, they would kill people like me there.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] :
larioteo: do not feed the troll :-)
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
no i have nothing against him, he asked, i get it wrong i am sorry for that,

if someoen likes multi selection of launchers than why i should be against this, some people like touchwiz some not, and android is the only solution to change touchwiz if someone would like sense on it or something else, for me touchwiz is best looking, i like this style, and so everyone gets what he wants.

i dont like sense or something like that only tw4 from galaxy sII is nice android launcher for myself, and if i would have to choose it i would choose the tw4 gui
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
sorry i have made an mistake, thats why i corrected it, if it isnt allowed to correct it i will change it back if you feel better, and now i am another time again the bad one.

this is going not good out for me, see ya.

i have said i have nothing against you and you attacking one time again me, have i said troll to you? man cool down let them talk.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] Samuel Sung:
I totally agree with larioteo. BUT for me there are about 10 -15 apps which are good for productivity in MY CASE on Android. Often the Bada version of apps or games are less good programmed than the iphone or Android version(i mean the exact same versions on bada iphone and android). I'm one of those Who know why they bought bada and hopin that it will get bigger and bigger faster and faster. BUT my phone is ****ING AWESOMENESS!! and sometimes i get sick of not having the apps i want...I mean Guitar apps are essential to me just to name one...

So you have to understand that i try Android on my phone. Just installing it doesn't mean someone don't like bada or steal every app...btw Badaapps are more expensive....

I'm so happy about the leaked bada 2.0 can't wait for an 8500 version...

And we all should know that Android is an Downgrade! Beauty knows no pain..(don't get this wrong...thx)

just my 2 cents
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
ok i say it so if you like the galaxy sII gui than you will love bada 2.0
[Bada Software and Hacking General] Samuel Sung:
The only thing which i really like is that there are 4 icons instead of 3. But i guess that it will stay at 3 icons for the wave because of the screen sizes of Galaxy and wave 2. And i've seen the menu scroll downwards. I hope bada 2 has this feature. But i won't die if not. I will take a deeper look on s2 at youtube now..

Btw. do me and the badacommunity a favour and don't become like those stupid applefanboys! This would be awesome. ;) I Hope you know what i mean. No offense!

best regards

edit: lol touchwiz 4 looks pretty awesome to me...i guess i will freak out when bada 2 point Oh comes out... o.0
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
ok i say it so

everything is made to fit on 2 resolutions with one firmware

hvga and wvga

there will be no differences in this, you will see.

and yes touchwiz 4 is like a dream :)

Hi, is there anyone have SGS2's GPS works at outdoor when 3G are disabled? Can I have your phone setting if it ever works?

I am simulating then the phone to be a transitional GPS device (e.g. Garmin) which have no Wifi or 3G assistance.

I observed below in my SGS2:

1. Without 3G data, I walking around on the road, First GPS fix NEVER happen (20 minutes and above...) even at outdoor without buildings, trees and clouds around me. :(

2. With 3G data network enabled, my GPS fix time is 13 seconds. (pretty good :D)

3. After 3G helping for first GPS fix, if my location not too far during first GPS fix, My SGS2 can fix to the Satelit. (because of caching? :confused:)

There are 5~8 Satelits detected by "GPS status 3.7 free version". It keep refreshing and GPS would not fix without 3G data network enabled.

Below are my phone setting during the test:

1. Under "Wireless and network"

-> "Mobile networks" -> "Use packet data" -> UNCHECKED

-> "Mobile networks" -> "Network mode" -> "GSM only"

-> "Wi-Fi settings" -> "Wi-Fi" -> UNCHECKED

2. Under "Accounts and sync"

-> "Background data" -> UNCHECKED

3. "Location and security"

-> "Use wireless networks" -> CHECKED

-> "Use GPS satelites" -> CHECKED

-> "Use sensor aiding" -> CHECKED

Below are my "GPS status version 3.7" setting during the test:

1. Under "GPS & Sensors"

-> "GPS required" -> CHECKED

-> "Sensor filtering" -> NO FILTERING
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You need no settings for Pure GPS on SGS2 it just works .

No AGPS wiFI or Network only means first cold boot sats take longer to lock on .

Test i returned GPS only no sim no wifi 4 mins cold boot 8 sats locked on initial accuracy 10m .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjtj4444:
A GPS fix with a completely "clean" GPS-receiver without cached calendar takes 12-30 minutes.

It takes 12.5 minutes just to download the calendar, then there are other things happening as well.

Hera are some information how it works.

So please test for at least 30 minutes with decent GPS-coverage the first time you test the GPS before you consider it faulty if you don't use A-GPS (wireless networks).

I would also like to know is anyone found a solution for this (i.e. GPS lock time without 3G data).
