[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PaganAng3l:
I doubt supercharger has anything to do with it as I was using it on the last release with no problems. I have noticed the battery life being a bit worse on the .25 release (lost 12% in two hours) but I thought it may be due to the auto calibration included in the rom. I'm gonna give it a few days to see if it balances itself out again as it sometimes does.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
Thanks for feedback. I will give it a few days and see how it goes too, its not terrible on the battery but who wants to go backwards :p this is also a reason why I struggle to stay on older releases.. always wanting the new stuff :o

yeah! now root permissions are working fine.. :) big up

Since updating to 1.11.25 I can't access MENU->SETTINGS. When pressing MENU I get the normal options but when pressing SETTINGS it just goes back to homescreen.

I'm using LPP but since I can't go into menu to clear standards I can't test if this also happens with the default launcher.

Anyone else has this? Guess I'll have to reflash, possibly go back to .18
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] almostthere:
Works fine on stock launcher. LPP issues perhaps?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whpsnp:
I tried uninstalling LPP - the only way I could go back to default launcher. Same thing so it's not related to LPP.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ilea94:
after upgrading my screen won´t wake up when i get an sms ...

Anyone else got this issue on 11.25 ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Known issue on 11.25, not ROM specific.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I use LPP and don't have this problem. Maybe you're using a broken theme? Just a shot in the dark.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bigt2003:
I got the same thing on Go with the preferences menu. And I've tried it on 5 different MIUI ROMs. It's fine until the first reboot.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Thanks T. I've been on glite lately, so I may not have rebooted when I was testing this week's MIUI build.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bigt2003:
Kinda figured that, but it's definitely an upstream problem. I still have the problem running my own MIUI build. I sent a bug report to Go and tried MIUI. Is it a bad sign that MIUI's bug report email is full? But ADW Free works fine, that's what I'm using today.

Sent from my Motorola StarTac
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whpsnp:
I didn't have this problem on .18 with the same theme but tried with no theme just now to make sure. No luck.

Also, I tried uninstalling LPP with no change so it is not related to LPP. I'll try and flash .18 and see if it helps.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
I get the exact same battery life with this week's build, nothing different really. 4 hrs unplugged with 30mins screen on time, connected to wifi and a few email accounts and I'm at 95%

As for the differences between v6 and tuna's oom tweaks, v6 does quite a bit more than what tuna has included with his rom, the launcher priority changes being the largest omission I think. I don't know enough about the differences on paper, just that with v6 I get no launcher redraws and things feel a lot snappier. Not that this rom isn't snappy, but v6 really seems to make things fly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Point in case... (attached)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whpsnp:
Reflashed .18 and now there's no problems with accessing menu.

weird!

hey everyone

so i'm still on the 11/4 build. you may remember me as the guy that decided to wipe before jumping to 11/4 and everythings been running amazing except i was missing the browser. it was technically there (clicking a link from within the facebook app would bring up the browser, for example, but there just simply was no icon anywhere). so i decided oh well, no biggie, and jumped over to dolphin anyway for a new better browser. and everything's been great. everything is still great, but here's the weird thing that happened...

over thanksgiving, i was with family in the middle of the mountains where i had at best 1 or 2 bars of edge at any given time, so no i didn't have the signal to update my rom or even download/update any apps. yet after turning off my phone one day (i tend to turn it off and on every couple days to keep things running smooth), i turned it back on, and on my last home screen were the browser, downloads, dnd mode, and spare parts (all apps i ALSO didn't have shortcuts to anymore since updating to 11/4 but just didn't notice since i never use them). WEIRD RIGHT?

no big deal, i mean now i have them and it's cool, and everythings still running good. but just thought i'd share. i turned off and on at least a dozen times since flashing 11/4 and not having those 4 app shortcuts. also tried lots of troubleshooting with you guys's help to get them back (well just browser cause i didn't even know about the other 3 being missing), none of it ever helped. then just all the sudden 3 weeks later, with no signal, they all just appear.

weird.

Does Alarm Snooze function sometimes not working is a common MIUI problem?

I went to work late because of that this morning peh :/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
Always works
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Rozza C:
Go Launcher seems to work fine for me. O.o
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Finally got around to updating ROM Manager, sorry I've been slacking on that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aresmar:
Oh well I just learnt many people in many different forums saying snooze sometimes doesnt work. A friend of mine even says the same thing and uses 2 alarms just in case. :/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
I have been using miui since it was 1.2.xx until now 1.11.25 and not once have had alarm problems.

You are in luck than :)

3500 quadrant score is kinda heavy? I'm using latest BP MIUI + V6 script running #6 and #19 at 1,3ghz ondemand.. but my score is ~2450 - performance is great, but why is that?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
because quadrant scores are bs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bigt2003:
+1

CM5 experimented and proved these scores were pure fiction. I don't know why they keep popping up.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
I don't swear by them or anything remotely like that, but people seem to use them as a point of reference, so I thought I'd throw it out there. I'm at 1.5ghz ondemand myself.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aresmar:
Well this happened me once and I was late to work and same happened to my friend. I hope it wont happen again but there is something fishy here :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bigt2003:
The only problem I had was the clock process getting oom killed and the alarm not going off at all. I switched to Bedside and I haven't had a problem since. I rarely use snooze, but it has worked when I did.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
i got an idea.. just buy an old school clock for like 5 bucks.. works everytime, save you the hassle.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheForumTroll:
Yeah and get an old phone and a paper calender while you're at it. Oh and don't forget some postcards and some maps :p

I've been using MIUI.us for some time now and just started using Bulletproof a few versions ago. No problems so far that isn't upstream too. Thanks a lot!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] puravida82:
Appropriately named, haha
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
yeah, just one more thing to carry on travels.

if there's a simple clock feature on a phone, it should work as an alarm clock with simplicity as well.

infact, I threw my alarm clock out to make room for a dock which I rest my phone in :-)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
good for you :rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bigt2003:
C'mon kids, that's enough. Whether you have a backup alarm clock or not, the issue is the one on the phone isn't working. Let's troubleshoot that.

If you had the snooze problem, what processes did you have running in the background?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Glen L:
oh nevermind, called up the telecom.

They disabled my data by accident (LOL?)

Anyways, I just wiped my phone again with the new update, now i keep getting "unknown callers" from people who are in my contacts
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aresmar:
I dont want to make it a big thing but you know it is small thing but consequence is big. Well it happenned to me once only so I dont really know what caused it. And it is hard to produce again as you may guess. And I have been using bullet proof for over a month or more.

I have only the usual apps running. Like gtalk, whatsapp, tweetdeck, facebook etc. Not an unusual process to mess up I guess.

And I am sure I pressed snooze button to nap a few more minutes and than I woke up 45 mins later :P

I am aware it is really hard to reproduce. Than in a local forum I asked and a friend said it happened to him too. Maybe it is a rare thing but it happens I might say. This never happened before in neither a sense rom or cm7 nightlies I used for a long time. So I was suspicious if it is the miui rom. I dont think it is bulletproof specific but I use bulletproof so I asked here. ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
What I have done by accident before is long press to kill after setting my alarms.. This caused the alarm to not even work, but in your case it at least went off when it was supposed too.. how is your ram? Could have been kicked?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aresmar:
And I have another question is there anyway that I can use my Physical Keyboard as I can use in sense roms? I cant get the special characters or Turkish keys to work. I tried the zip from glite roms forum but it didnt do anything. Any ideas that I can fix the keyboard?

@erichung_13

About the alarm isnt it wierd that the alarm worked and than I press snooze it might be killed in between in 10 mins? and forget to snooze. You know I wasnt doing anything rather than napping :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
yeah it is strange.. you didnt long press to close by accident? or u misfired and hit disable? :p I spam snooze (because im a lazy 18 year old :o) but yet it still works for me.. always has. Try reflash? and for the keyboard have you tried downloading language pack that is Turkish?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aresmar:
Can you point me to right direction about language pack? :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bigt2003:
@Aresmar

Somewhere I remember seeing a getting to disable the dismiss button. You might have hit it instead of snooze.

Sent from my Motorola StarTac
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aresmar:
I am not sure but I am pretty sure I tapped the snooze one :/

I use the alarm and snooze every work day and I will be on watch if it happens again! :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xxqbnxx:
Sometimes the screen flickers lightly does anyone else experience this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
verify that it's the ROM by trying a backup of another rom.

it could be the ribbon between your phone halves becoming fraile.

I've replaced mine once :-(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xxqbnxx:
Yea it seems to only be happening in this rom and only on messaging app It doesn't happen all the time. At first I thought I was going crazy but I focused on it and it does very faintly flicker.

[Acer Iconia A500] mgjscdhl:
I've been thinking of getting an android tablet for some time. This one (a500) is definitely top #3. I was wondering if someone could give me a definite yes/no if you can add external (usb) devices like thumbdrives and gamepads?

I have an external drive I keep my main media on. Problem is its a ntfs partition. Can it be rooted and a kernel module added for support OR is it supported out of the box? (at least read only)

I also have an old logitech gamepad I'd like to use on emulators/games. Can it be used, or maybe a ps3 controller?

I'd appreciate any help or suggestions. I've googled this and haven't found anything specific for this tablet itself.

Thanks

Geo
[Acer Iconia A500] sungokhu:
USB accessories including gamepads should be supported on 3.1.

If not, use your bluetooth ps3 with "Sixaxis Controller" apps from the market. Try their compatibility checker first.
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
Download Drive Mount from Market and use it but your device must be rooted first.

And for the gamepad flash this kernel and your gamepad will be enabled:

I was able to use a sega saturn usb controller (also compatible with pc and ps3) on my acer. Nothing custom necessary.

Youtube video ids or search for iconia saturn:

DMmtVcgGBEI

F1R4Xs5CZW4

That setup will be great when you need to be wired (on airplane). I'm going to try my ps3 madcatz controller too. It uses a usb dongle and 2.4 ghz wireless. The wiimote also works, but the base wiimote doesnt have nearly enough buttons
[Acer Iconia A500] godashram:
There was a thread when 3.1 1st hit the iconia. Xbox 360 wired and wireless (with dongle) work, the mad catz sf4 controllers work fine ( both pads and sticks), Saturn USB pads and clones, and well, that's what I tried myself
[Acer Iconia A500] JetskiMark:
This method worked perfectly for me. My 1TB portable drive works perfectly.

I rooted with Iconiaroot and it was very easy and fast. One click to unroot too.

THESE are the people giving YOU the goodies!

Donate...Thank...Donate...Thank AGAIN! Donate again!!!!!

Without THEM...YOU are like THAT guy → View attachment 687884 with a shiny phone and no wimminz.

With THEM...YOU are THIS guy →View attachment 687885 Yeah...YOU wanna be him. Trust me. He gets wimmenz →View attachment 687883....See? I can haz wimmenz?

Why You Should Donate...

More often than not, a developer for a specific device will use their device as a guinea pig. Tweaking, rooting, building ROMs & Kernel testing are but a few things that can really mess up one's device. Saying Thank You is great, and means alot to a Developer...a small Donation for His / Her work goes even further!

The tools needed to develop a ROM go much deeper than just the Device being developed on. While some preferred development tools are Open Source and can be used for free, others are not...and are a big investment. Add onto that the hours of dedication to building a ROM, and the amount of

(Insert Energy Drink of Choice Here)

, it can be a costly hobby / passion. It's NOT required...but SO very much appreciated by the Developers!

The Thanks Button...

Be generous in your thanks to Developers as well as your fellow community members that help out. We tech nuts are a vain group of individuals, and tend to be more productive when we know others appreciate our work. Taking less than 10 seconds to click that "Thanks" button is likened to a high-five, fist-bump, atta-boy...and if you're NOT homophobic, a good old baseball pat on the arse!

Are you jealous that someone has more thanks than you? Contribute! Very rarely is info sharing frowned upon! Found a killer app you just can't live without? Tell someone! Share the knowledge...it's what XDA is meant to be! It's grown from a small Development community, into a massive one...with SO effin much to share with lovers of various devices. The more that pitch in, the more we open up our devices for enjoyment!

Root Instructions / Recovery

Root Guide

What is rooting and why should/shouldn't I do it?

Rooting is a way of gaining access to the root directory of your phone enabling you to change every aspect of your phones software that the manufacturer has locked. This enables you to do many things with your device that the manufacturer did not intend. Here are some reasons why people root and why people don't.

Reasons to root:

Get the latest versions of Android on your phone before anyone else.

Try faster and more optimized versions of your phone's software.

Overclocking and underclocking your phone.

Longer battery life.

Theme your phone a lot more.

FREE Wireless Tethering.

Remove unwanted Sprint software.

Reasons to NOT Root:

Not comfortable with troubleshooting your phone and phone problems.

Do not have the time to spend going through countless forums to find solutions to problems.

Possibility to break your phone permanently causing you to go back to Sprint (IF YOU HAVE INSURANCE) to get another one or buy another if you don't have insurance.

MAY VOID YOUR WARRANTY WITH SPRINT. (YMMV - Can always un-Root)

Very time consuming and addicting.

Do not know what a "driver" is for a computer.

Have no knowledge of DOS.

So how do I root?

-Don't use any method just because the guide says "ROOT METHOD". Make sure its the latest root method used for your situation. Even this guide will get outdated one day (I'll try my best to keep it up to date).

-Rooting will cause all your information to be lost if you did not properly back them up. You will lose anything saved on the phone, such as contacts (not synced to Google) and applications and settings. Anything on your SD card will still be there such as music and pictures and video.

Basic terminology:

ROM - The phone's software

Flashing - Installing. Pertains to ROMs, kernels, radios, themes, etc

Good choice. I have a demo device of the Epic Touch (my Sprint work phone) and it's pretty solid. This 4.5" screen is juicy but I find myself checking my social media and my email with the Photon, even though I'm supposed to use the Epic Touch as much as possible.

Wish I the the time to contribute unoffical development. Im too busy with work. I'm sure this device will heat up. Everyone acts as if they only cook HTC. Too many HTC cooks and not enough Android Cooks.

Gingerbread for A7

There was a rom that was under development here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1079375

But it is discontinued. I have tried it on my A7 and it works but was never completed. Meaning it still has bugs and not everything works. I guess it depends on what you use your A7 for. I went back to Dexter's ElocityA7 Mod v1.41 for a daily driver. I keep hoping someone will pick back up Gingerbread development for our A7's.

If anyone knows of another one in development I would also like to know.
[A7 General] smallba:
changing the density lower then 130 on A7comb will change the honeycomb UI to gingerbread, you also have to flash the kernel above for the soft keys to function again
