I am luvin CM7 but, one question with the drop down menu/notifications screen. I cannot use, it's not there on all five screens when no apps are open. I need to open an app before it comes back up top and I find it a pain. Is this common to CM7 with the Thunderbolt or have I somehow screwed up...again.

First HUGE THANKSSSSS to all the developers.

I have some important questions :

1.Do we need the JIT tool in GB ?

2.How can we get more free ram /memory regarding of removing app or using memory booster [ i mean all the time,preventing from unwanted app to run]

3.Are the ROMS here do this things ?

THANKS in advanced for answers.;):):confused:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] baz@gmx.co.uk:
wrong section / search first. there are threads in the general and Q&A refering to tweaks etc. please respect the developers by NOT posting "questions" of a general nature in the "development" thread.

JIT - already in GB

Ram - let android manage itself.

Apps - there are answers on what is safe to remove in the qa and general sections.

ROM's are each the work of the developer/modder so the answer depends on the ROM.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] alfi07:
Sorry.did it after a lot of searching and trying by myself.Will remove it to Q+A section.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] adamjt:
I picked up a gtab and want to use it while on vacation or backup the photos from my SLR's compactflash memory cards to a portable hard drive. Is this possible?

Basically it would be the usb adapter, then USB hub, with a compactflash (or SD) memory card reader and usb hdd off of it.

Anyone who has tried this, can you comment on the speed of transfer? The RAW images are around 30mb each and I have a 16gb and 2x 8gb memory cards.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TabGuy:
Here's my method... I have a Canon 40D.

1. Like it or not the world revolves around SD, not Compact Flash. So, don't use Compact Flash, use SD memory. Buy an adapter here and then you need only ever use SD cards going forward.

2. You can load your photos onto your TAB using Samsung's USB adapter for the TAB. Plug in an USB based SD card reader into the TAB and suck all the pictures off the SD card.

3. Get a Microsoft Live account. It's free. Along with the Microsoft Live account you get a free 25GB "Sky Drive" to store whatever you want.

4. Go to the marketplace and search for Sky Drive. There are a couple of apps there that will let you move files from your tab to the Sky Drive.

If you need more than 25GB of space then you can do this to free up space on the Sky Drive...

1. Put Microsoft Live on one of the computers in your home.

2. Put the free version of Logmein on your home PC.

3. Buy and install Logmein Ignition for the Tab.

4. Log into your home computer from the Tab via Logmein and move the files from the Sky Drive to your home PC.

You might be able to create a script to move the files from Sky Drive to the PC automatically, thus saving you the purchase of Logmein Ignition.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kajolishot:
I am a Pro, and I wish the Pro world revolved around SD, but current generation Nikons are all CF.

Having said that, I have read some people being able to mount portable HDDs with rooted Transformer and Iconia and have access to the full capacity of the drive. But, they also have a full USB port built in.

The Market App is: https://market.android.com/details?id=au.dach.drivemount
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] evanrich:
I stopped reading after this.

ALL

Pro bodies use compact flash. They have higher capacities, and are more resilient to damage than SD. This will never change. Anyone saying SD is better than CF doesn't know their Aperture size from their shutter speed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TabGuy:
You are correct, I'm not a pro photographer. However, I've shot over 40,000 photos on my 40D ALL on SD without ever a single SD failure. I'd say that's a pretty good track record.

The world does revolve around SD. It's the vast majority and the most compatible. It rules the market the way Windows rules the PC operating systems.

Is it better? I don't know. I didn't say one way or the other. To paraphrase your post: A person that thinks I said that SD was better than Compact Flash doesn't know their verbs from their nouns.

It's simply more convenient, cheaper, and in almost all cases just as safe. Maybe, back in the early days of SD it was prone to more failure but living in the past is no way to be successful in the future.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] adamjt:
For the time being I can't move away from compactflash. When I get a new camera in a few years, I'll see what camera floats my boat then. Please keep this on compactflash since that's what I have now:) Although, I do appreciate the suggestions. I am not a "pro" photographer (actually an engineer). But, it is one of my favorite hobbies.

When I travel to other countries, I usually either don't have access to wifi or I don't have access to fast enough wifi to upload the pictures to a cloud drive. I really need to be able to plug in the card reader AND the hdd at once (since the gtab doesn't have enough internal space for my pic backups). I haven't seen anyone post in the forums yet that they confirmed you can access 2 drives (reader and hdd) simultaneously to copy between then:(

If I can find a usb adapter at best buy and a powered hub I'll try it. Supposed I can take them back if it doesn't work. Just hoping someone already tried it and could tell me which hub/cardreader/etc to get to save some hassle of swapping out a few hubs/card readers.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] evanrich:
I wasn't implying SD cards would fail, as I have an SD card in my pocket camera I use when I don't want to take a Large Body/Lens set with me. I wasn't necessarily implying that SD cards fail, more that due to their thinness, they could snap, warp, etc. Also, as CF cards have a much more rigid body, they're more resilient in a disaster case. Ever tossed a memory card through the washer/Dryer? Run over it with a car? CF cards can stand a lot of abuse.

The one nice feature of SD cards that I wish CF cards had is the write protect switch. I have a memory card holder for my CF cards that has colored tabs you can use to tell if they're full or not, but a Write protect switch would be kinda nice.

A few years ago, SD cards were extremely expensive, compared to CF for GB to GB comparison. Today, the price gap is much much narrower, in some cases SD is cheaper than CF (although usually slower in terms of read/write speeds)

Both formats have their place. I don't discount SD, nor do i imply you're wrong in any way for using them, as I have a number of devices that use them, but CF also has it's place, in the professional world where photographers require the utmost performance and reliability from their memory devices.

On a side note, my company produces industrialized standalone computers that are remotely deployed on telephone and light poles in Pakistan to collect RFID tags on shipments bound for Afghanistan. These devices run solely on CF cards as well due to their durability.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pandamaja:
30MB! You must have 5DII, 1DMKx or D3X? Anywho, like mentioned, the best bet would try a usb hub
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] evanrich:
You'd have probably been better off buying one of those portable image transfer drives...they're made for this exact purpose. Take a memory card, plug it in, hit copy. They're only like 100-150 or so, much cheaper than a tablet.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GogoXp:
Hey People, love your work, :)

Been reading heaps, had it sorted, then read :- look under battery! :confused:

Bought a great unlocked used phone, looked in specs(about phone)- X10a.

Patiently waiting for the GB, read about further software detail available (thanks Arkedk):- customization 1237-1014-r6B (found in list for X10a CUST-AR NAM1) Argentina?

Still waiting patiently then read "look under battery" found Si 1232 4493 (X10i generic Optus -Au, GB now available?)

Phone must be unlocked- working great on Telstra.

I am now wondering what would be the best firmware for optimum operation in Aus. before GB upgrade. The phone doesn't seem to care what it is loaded with, it works great regardless(2.1), but maybe it can be better! Maybe we can run almost any firmware.

Can someone assist with a direction?

[Defy General] chuisana:
Hi All. My first post on this forum. Help please.

Both my wife and I have Defy's owned for 4 months and upgraded to Froyo 2.2 some weeks ago. Both working normally. Then yesterday my phone, for no obvious reason, came up with the message "Invalid Battery. Your device battery is invalid and cannot be charged. Replace the battery with an original Motorola battery." Also the battery symbol at top right of display is black, not green, and has a ? mark in it.

I have checked my battery, which came with the phone, and it is official Motorola with hologram. So is my wife's. I tried swapping the batteries and while her battery & my battery work perfectly in her phone, her battery in my phone gives the same errors.:confused:

I then tried a master reset....Twice! Both successful, wiping all my data, and requiring me to set up the phone again, but problem still remains. I have searched this forum for clues/help but cannot find any.

Can an "expert" shed light on this problem and how to fix it? I have read elsewhere of software that can be installed to stop the Defy refusing non Motorola batteries, though mine are official, but can't find it anywhere. Any Clues? I also wonder if flashing a new rom would help? Thanks.
[Defy General] Laserbait:
With the back cover off, try pressing on the battery near where the 4 gold terminals are that connect the battery to the phone. It might be that there is a bad solder joint there.
[Defy General] chuisana:
Thanks.....tried that, and cleaning the contacts. All seems to be in order. Have spoken to Motorola support and they have asked me to send phone for repair under warranty. It's a pain being without a phone, so I wanted to explore other options before proceeding.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] localceleb:
Well as of last night my phone had survived about 200 drops on the ground. Shattered the screen last night and am now looking for replacement options. I am pretty loyal to htc as their products have been outstanding for me so that narrows it down a bit. Also, I am staying with Verizon so that also narrows it down much more. I was look at the Incredible 2 and the Thunderbolt as my 2 options. My concern is that it's not really worth it to get a new phone at this point. The development doesn't seem as "robust" as I am used to at the Incredible forums. I know thats partially due to it being a newer device, but I also know that some phones don't take off development wise like others do and development is pretty important for me.

Just thinking out loud. Any input would be appreciated

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
The Tbolt has many of the same shortcomings as the dInc. Like torpid battery life. I'm a little skeptical newer 4G devices will improve battery life. The dInc2 is a great device if you don't care or won't be getting 4G any time soon. As for development, the Tbolt is going to be where its at for quite a while yet. The reason the dInc has so much development is because its very similar to the EVO. They can even share radios. You're not likely to see that again soon. Even with the huge screen, the Tbolt is better on the battery on 3G than the dInc, generally speaking. I still play with both and know this well. But if your dInc is dead and you need a new device, and you have 4G, get the Tbolt. No 4G, dInc2. I promise you'll love both, especially the battery life on the dInc2.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] localceleb:
To me, it doesn't make sense to upgrade right now when dual cores are only a couple months away. It blows my mind how relevant and up to date the Incredible has remained. That's the only reason I haven't upgraded yet. Usually I get bored with phones after 3 months. This is going to be the first time I can actually use my upgrade discount from verizon in quite a while.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pharpe:
If you don't want to upgrade yet just buy a new screen and replace it. You can get them on Amazon. I've replaced my twice. Just take your time.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiboe:
most higher end android phones have poor battery life from experience, even my blackberry had bad battery life if i used it in as little as 1 to 2 hour shots (streaming media nommed the battery like an anorexic cat) then again, bb isn't known for having great batteries.

and on phones, my mom had a fascinate, all stock, still had bloat, non-rooted (she doesn't want to, and i'm not going to force the issue) and every so often, it will be just sitting on her desk and the samsung warning tones will play, and she hasn't even been touching it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
That's the real beauty of the dInc2. It's not the bleeding edge. It's just the same old dInc with nothing added by a front facing camera (for whatever reason I don't understand [skepticism: all the new HTC use FFCs as proximity and light sensors; just cheaper?]). It's just been made a LOT more efficient. I tried this last night. I parked my Tbolt on the table overnight on 3G for about 9 hours... lost 21% battery the whole time. For comparison, 4G in that time frame would have chomped down 50% to 60% of the battery in that time frame. That 21% is actually better than the dInc running CM7, which is more around 35% to 40%.

My Tbolt set up is Gingeritus3D V1.0 Beta6 Sense 3.0 with Ziggy's kernel running freq_min 122MHz freq_max 1.44GHz, smartass gov. MR2 1.70 radio. That's just for reference if anyone wants to compare. I NEVER use WiFi, so I can't tell you about that.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
How the hell are you dropping 35%-40% overnight? My incredible on the stock battery will drop around 10% in ~10 hours of idle time. Are you getting poor to no reception? I'm not saying the battery life on my phone is great, it drains pretty quickly when the screen is on, but sips power when idle.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
10/6 is a long way to wait, and there's still possibility that the date will be delayed even longer.

Vigor does look pretty sweet, as long as the price isn't too ridiculous that'll be where I'm upgrading to. Though I'd probably wait until it's rooted too.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zalatorisaurus:
Yeah. I just want something that's 4G and HTC. The TBolt has been out for too long and hasn't even gotten Gingerbread yet. Hopefully the Vigor will get Ice Cream Sandwich with those snazzy specs it has. Lol
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildstang83:
I love the Incredible and I consider it a crime to hear about one that has been killed. I would be kinda lost in your position as well but you might consider taking a minor upgrade to the INC2.

Yeah I just called and filed a claim. The broken screen really started to bother me over the weekend and I figured it would be a more wise to shell out the $50 to the insurance company and save my upgrade from verizion for a phone that I actually want(Vigor). They had the original Incredible's in stock so that's what I'm getting. Plus I get another home charger now hah.

Does anyone know if I have to return to stock before sending the device back? Will they charge me if I keep the battery?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trimax84:
Yes, return to stock: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=786436&highlight=return+to+stock

They probably will send the replacement phone without a battery and you are supposed to keep yours.

I am also waiting for the Vigor, knowing Verizon and how they seem to push back all their big phones, that 10/6 is not realistic to me. So If SGSII lands first then that will get my money first....
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
That been pretty much the case since I got the phone, regardless of Sense or AOSP. That phone's been to 48 states and that's just how it's always been. It doesn't matter if I'm sitting in the middle of Chicago or LA, or in some little hole in the wall like Apopka, FL. Out on the intercoastal or north end of Merritt Island in FL that thing will go flat dead sitting on a table in 10 hours. I HAD to get the extended battery for it. The Tbolt is about as bad on 4G.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
