[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinman02:
I'm traveling to France (from USA) in a few weeks and planning to take my Transformer. Can anyone give me some info about charging the Transformer over there and if there are any obstacles I should be aware of using wifi? Thanks.

BTW, I'm using Prime 1.83.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalvinH:
I have mi US TF here in Spain. The domestic voltage and plugs are the same on both.

Your charger will work without problems, but you will need a plug adapter, because the plugs are 2 round ones. If you are staying at a hotel maybe they have universal plugs (useful 4 european and US plugs).

Regarding wifi, no problems at all. Amazon app shop won't work and maybe some other location dependant service may deny you service, but everything should run fine.

And yes, if an OTA is aired you will get it :D . (Oh, I see you are using prime, so no reason to worry about OTA).

Regards.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinman02:
Sorry, I'm not a seasoned traveler... Are the voltage and plugs the same in France and Spain?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aibo:
No need to worry about charging, because the charger is a universal one (100-240v). Most european country use 220-240v, here in France we use 220V, like CalvinH said all you need is a plug adaptor (round one like in spain), it's not expensive. For wifi there's no roblem, it's the same thing wherever you go.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalvinH:
Sorry for my bad writing. As aibo said and I was trying to say, YES, both Spain and France (and I think most european countries) use 220Vac.

Regards.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Martysdroidx:
I want to root my Motorola Photon. I have been reading many posts on different rooting methods and I'm confused on all these methods. Of course, the dockless method sounds like the best since I don't have the dock. Can someone who is more experienced in rooting please tell me what is the best or easiest way to root the phone? Does anyone have a good step by step thread or website I can use? Any help would be great!
[Motorola Photon 4G] M@XLOL:
Shabby has a thread in the dev section which is one click. I am happy to help. What exactly are you confused about?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Martysdroidx:
Thank you for your reply! I got my Photon the other day. I need to know what to do to root it. What do I have to download or do to root it? Yeah, I'm new at rooting. I tried the Z4 Root app but it don't work on Gingerbread.
[Motorola Photon 4G] M@XLOL:
This thread here offers the 'once-click-root' for our device. What operating system are you on? I'll assume windows. If so download the zip file as well as the appropriate drivers and then just run the bat file.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Martysdroidx:
I downloaded the drivers and the zipped Photon OCR file. I installed the drivers. Do I put the zipped file on the SD card or do I run one of the files with the phone plugged in to my computer?
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
With it plugged into your computer. Make sure USB debugging is on and that your in charge mode only.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Martysdroidx:
I ran the root batch file. It went through the process and said I should have root but I don't. I tried it a second time and got the same thing. How do I get the root access?
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
Check your drivers and try again. There's also the torpedo root method.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Martysdroidx:
How do I do the torpedo method? I do have the torpedo tar file on my desktop
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
The instructions are here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1216131 in the Dev section.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Djspinister:
I will be making a video on how to root using the most of the methods tonight. It won't be done and edited until late tonight but I will definitely get one up! That way we can aleviate some of these threads and issues people are having.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Martysdroidx:
Man...I downloaded many apps and tried different prompts in the thread. I am lost!!!! Is there anyone I can call for tech support? I'm trying to get this to work and I'm not having any luck. I guess I'm about as noob as noob can be! Is there a youtube vid anywhere?
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
um i think he was making a comment towards calling someone on here to help him with it.

i honestly dont understand the issue with so many people not being able to root... yall have a root that is far easier then the nexus s 4g (i should know i wrote the one click for that phone too)
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
Here is shabbypenguins one click root that worked very easy.

anyways without further waiting here it is

Download

Drivers in case you need em :D

32-Bit 64-Bit

driver mirrors

Download and install the drivers. Download and extract the one click root to your desk top.

Run the one click root from the folder you extracted to your desk top. After 3 reboots you should be rooted.

Make sure when you plug your phone into your computer you select charging only in the notification pull down.

If it don't root your phone the first time try it again, some people reported having to do it twice.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sdruesch:
This may be a stupid question, but does it completely wipe your phone when you root it?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Martysdroidx:
I'm close. I did it 4 times and no go. I attached a screenshot on the info. Could it be the phone resetting itself twice during the process?
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
yes
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
Try turning the phone off then on.make sure you have the drivers installed. Try reinstalling them if you do them try again. Make sure USB debugging us checked on your phone under menu/settings/applications/development. And when you plug in your phone to your computer in the notification pull down make sure to check charge only.
[Motorola Photon 4G] anoroc44:
My first time every owning a android phone. Just got it yesterday and I was able to root without any problems. I have been wathing the photon threads since day one in anticipation of gettng the Photon phone. At a $100 purchase at Best Buy I just had to take advantage.

Thanks to all the hardworking devs in the backgroungd. I appreciate your efforts and results.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

This is a small CWM zip to add the mem=512M@512M line to your existing boot and recovery partitions to fix the ram issue with the international unlocked bootloader. If the second mem is already there it does nothing.

The point of this is you can have a regular recovery flashed and fix the ram issue without wondering what tegra part you have, it preserves your serial number as well. More useful with stock boot images than custom ones that already have this done.

To use:

Flash with a CWM recovery supporting edify scripting. That means you have an unlocked recovery basically.

The program inside the zip can be used on it's own to list the cmdlines already in your phone, or to set them to something else.

As cmdline, it lists, as setcmdline it sets the entire thing, as addcmdline it adds on to the end of the existing cmdline.
​

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ceo.mtcl:
Great! Looks like our bell friends are having good development as well.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] TheSmokingAndroid:
NF, cheers bro I really appreciate the work from you.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] IUH1991:
So would i need to flash this once and then any ROM I install will have fixed RAM, or do I need to flash this after every installation?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
You can just keep it handy on your sdcard and use when needed, it depends on the "rom" you flash, it may or may not have a ram fix solution built in.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
You're welcome. :)

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nexxusty:
It depends on the Kernel the Rom has within it, nothing else.

Furthermore, no offense. But this is kinda useless now. Did you not know we have unified Kernel's? If someone made a Rom without a unified kernel, they can basically shove that Rom.

I do not see a point in this at all. I guess maybe for testing old Roms.....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] IUH1991:
So solid man, keep up the good work!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Hi,

I addressed this already in the OP. It's more for use with stock kernels.

Can you compile the motorola kernel source (pick one) and get a binary exact match for the stock Bell kernel?

No offense to the guys working on kernel's here, but I am not really compelled by the added features/bug fixes, and am concerned more about stability, especially when the source seems to be ATT based. Which is fine if you are running an ATT framework "rom/theme" I guess, even better if you have an ATT phone.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xateeq:
Hi is this fix for when i flash IHOP and get ram problem it fix that or its universal for every kernel (Gb froyo ROMs etc) ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] geishroy:
so does this mean it is actually possible to download more ram??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Yes, what you said. :)

[Atrix 4G Android Development] drolgnir:
System Ram lists 816 total, so I should be in the clear or should I apply it anyways? Is there not a gig of ram on this thing or is some gpu/frame buffer dedicated?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
You are in the clear. :)

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] IUH1991:
So, if I understand this correctly, when I flash this it will auto-fix any ROM, kernel or custom recovery that I install?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] NFHimself:
Pretty much, yes. If your recovery is ram fixed already then your boot gets the same cmdline.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mandroid717:
hey people,

Wow thank you for this.. i am now ready ti unlock my bootloader.. i am stuck in ram fix. I cannot understand the instruction.. thankyou soooo much
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Taioba:
Guys, please give me a hand.

Yesterday unlocked the bootloader and installed CM7.2 official.

Then I noticed it only had 815MB of RAM.

I saved the RamFix on internal memory, did the reboot into recovery mode and installed the zip.

Reboot. Yet still with only 815MB of memory.

Follow my cmdline:

cat /proc/cmdline

mem=320M@0M nvmem=192M@320M mem=512M@512M vmalloc=320M video=tegrafb console=nul

l usbcore.old_scheme_first=1 tegraboot=sdmmc tegrapart=mbr:1100:100:800,kpanic:2

500:400:800 security=tomoyo mot_prod=1 androidboot.serialno=0411718769

What can I do in addition to get back with all my memory?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] m1k3_:
I don't know what memery back you mean. If you are talking about the memory left, you ain't gonna have it in the system. As far I know, that fix was made before the pudding with the fix inside.

The memory that is left, it's just the memory used for the GPU and other stuff. That's all. :).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ravilov:
Exactly how much memory do you think you should have? You can't ever have all of 1GB at your disposal. There is pretty much no way of pushing it above around 855MB or so, in fact if you get anywhere close to that you should consider yourself lucky. You should also read the kernel devs threads more often, there was a detailed explanation of this.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Taioba:
Argh! It reminds me of my notebook, eating memory for use in video card. I never imagined facing the same on my phone.

Thanks for the reply!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Disease8:
Hi this has had no effect I am on Mrom on a Moto Atrix.

i want to update my firmware to b138

now i am using oxygen r1 latest

before oxygen i was using stock rom sp16

so can i update to b138

or is should wipe oxygen before update and then i should install oxygen

if yes then what's the procedure anyone can explain please..........
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
First of all make a backup of your apps with titanium backup its free.

Than go to the recovery and wipe data+cache.

Than go to the advanced menu and wipe the dalvik cache.

Then go back and install the rom
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I did it just today.

I've backup oxygen rom, then I copied the dload folder of B138 on sdcard and reboot to bootloader, wait to flash B138.

Then after B138 booted, I get root again, replaced official with custom recovery.img again and restore the oxygen backup.

And all work fine as before the update.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
how about doing in this order?

(1) enter recovery, backup

(2) put B138 dload folder in sdcard and boot to bootloader, wait for B138 to flash

(3) remove dload folder from sdcard and boot to bootloader

(4) connect to pc and replace custom recovery.img

(5) disconnect from pc, take battery out and reinsert, boot to recovery

(6) restore backup

by doing so, no root is needed..

i just wonder, whats the gain of doing so?

since the B138 rom itself did not stay, is it just for the possible firmware updates included in B138?

if yes, what are actually updated?

(as i cannot find any change log from huawei.. and apparently these guys from china are good at technical but poor in documentation..:rolleyes: )
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I think needed root rights for recovery to have write access to device' s partitions.

And the custom roms replace the system and boot.img only. There are some other parts that custom roms don't touch them. So the official rom update these parts too.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] AlexTrofosila:
Hi, i just updated my Galaxy tab to 2.3.3 Gingerbreab, and i want to install some good apps.

So, can someone tell me which app is better for my Galaxy Tab?

First, i want a good browser. Which is better: Dolphin HD, xScope or Stock Browser ?

Then, i want a good music player. I used playerpro and poweramp, but i didn't know which is better.

I want to watch some xvid and mkv movies and i don't know what player to choose.

How can i see when my tablet is fully charged ? Can you recomend me some good apps or widgets ?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] thhgcn:
Web browser: Dolphin HD

Email client: K9-mail

Launcher: Go Laucher Ex

Backup: Titanium backup

RSS reader: Pulse
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] agc93:
Browser: Dolphin HD is very powerful and has a very good UI. For a lighter, cleaner and potentially quicker browser without the functions, try Miren Browser. (Sorry, but i found xScope to be pretty crap on my Tab)

Music Player: Although PlayerPro is pretty good (and has the neat ratings transfer function), PowerAMP is amazing so it definitely takes the prize here. See http://goo.gl/7Zyny

Video Player: This is a very personal choice and I would advocate trial and error to see which one can play your particular files the best. As a shortlist I would try out VPlayer, Vital Player, QQPlayer, RockPlayer and any others you see around the Market with good reviews.

And I would suggest Smart Battery Monitor for your battery needs. Very effective.

Hope that helps
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] michadreyer:
battery solo widget looks great. it changed his color while charging and

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] LordLugard:
Browser I recommend Dolphin Mini, lightweight counterpart to Dolphin HD.

Music player, Power Amp hands down.

Movies, Moboplayer is the one. (I personally like all my movies in one "universal" format that everything i have plays, mp4, so I have a habit of converting everything as I download them to mp4, HD or SD.)

Battery Indicator Pro is a great battery monitor/status app.

I'm not a Widgets person.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] AlexTrofosila:
Thanks for the help.

I installed Dolphin Mini, ProPlayer, Vplayer, K9-Mail, but i still didn't know which app is better for battery.

I like Battery Indicator Pro, but i have some questions:

1. That timers: Light usage left, Heavy usage left, i can set them manually or they will be set automatically?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] biffroy:
•ADW launcher

•dolphin HD

•thumb keyboard

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] AlexTrofosila:
What app for network monitoring should i use ?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] LordLugard:
Those are automatic estimates (guess-timates) based on current usage. It's like your laptop telling you how much battery life you have left based on your usage (power profile). It's not something that is to be "set manually".
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Justin^Tan:
videoplayer = moboplayer, best i've ever used, even play asf when samsung stock player cant open it (dun even know what kind of format is that, but i got from a friend)

browser i prefer opera mobile

musicplayer, i like that wp7 player with a nice ui, i use samsung stock for concert hall mode on, power amp is good for equalizing

while launcher, i like the sophstication of windows phone 7, so i go with launcher 7

not really practical, but for me its cool

First rooted no problem and researched unlocking S5380, using

JC-Masters tutorial and StoneBoyTony have similar steps but IMPORTANT stoneboytony tutorial has an extra step 31.

Make shure that Root Explorer is in "Mounted as r/o" like this

.

I used Jc_master tutorial my phoned bricked I only blame myself which does not remount file system read only r/o and does not use Root Explorer app.

I could be totally wrong here and believe you must use the extra step 31.

I thought umount /efs was the problem because if you UNMOUNT the efs

how would access that partition when rebooting.when you mkdir /efs this could mean you make a directory called efs which could be encrypted which you cant access when rebooting. Yes you can see 8 digit code clearly but cant reboot and cant reflash new rom. because you cant acess the efs files.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vinclar:
Me too, for this I started a thread to see if its posible to make a kernel that remount efs partition. No one said to me nothing.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] durbancurry:
vinclar what tutorial did you use.? even if you type unmount that command would not be recognised nothing would happen,

This is a guess maybe the file system needs to be r/o read only when booting so that the orig efs files cant be rewritten or generated. as the files are specific to your phone only.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] russ18uk:
It's no unmount it's umount. Unfortunately, it seems like a fail on whoever created the umount command. In general Linux though, a simple typo to manually unmount a partition wouldn't do much harm. On a phone it seems to brick or clear the IMEI and other critical info.
