Hi,

Now that I have been able to get Vegacomb on my Vega im very chuffed with myself lol and want to keep making this Tablet better!

I have at the moment installed this -- [ROM] VegaComb BETA 1.7

Is this one any better?

[ROM] [3.2] Vegacomb 3.2 Build 8.1

What are the main differences?

And what is this one all about?

[NIGHTLY][ROM][GRJ22] CyanogenMod 7

I have read through them but as im still learning im getting a bit lost as to what is better and what the main differences are...

Any help would be great guys.

Thanks
[Vega General] Cyda:
The main differences are the android versions that they are based on:

CyanogenMod 7 = Android 2.3

VegaComb beta 1.7 = Android 3.0

VegaComb 3.2 build 81 = Android 3.2

The VegaComb beta 1.7 has now been replaced by the Vegacomb 3.2 Build 8.1 so you will probably want to upgrade to that version.
[Vega General] foxguard:
Nice one mate, thats exactly what I wanted, a nice and simple reasoning to change!!

To change to the newer one then, do I do this in the same way I got beta 1.7 on it then?

Thanks again for your help mate.
[Vega General] Cyda:
For VegaComb 3.2 build 8.1 you need to follow a certain install path.

First, install this: http://tabletroms.com/forums/vega-r...ddedstock_1-10-v2-updated-stock-rom-base.html

Then once it is booted go in to recovery via the recovery app and then wipe user/cache/dalvik and then install the ROM below via clockworkmod > install update from sdcard.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simmo3D:
Im just wondering, if I downloaded NFS hot pursuit and Modern Combat on my Xperia, would i be able to redownload them after a factory reset? I have purchased them via SMS
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
Yes, the links will still work. However you'll have to keep them somewhere since the factory reset wipes your SMS too.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simmo3D:
Thanks for that mate! Only thing Im worried about is that NFS gave me an unlock code.. not sure where I enter that when I wanna download the game again.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
Probably in EA's store.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solitarymonkey:
if i remember correctly, is the apk in your download folder? because i recently reinstalled my firmware, and found like, 2 copies of some games i downloaded for free. and i'm sure i just installed them, and all was fine.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simmo3D:
Thanks for the feedback guys.

I did a full factory reset and wiped the SD card..

Set the phone back up and the games already knew I purchased them and downloaded fine..

Anyone else thinks controls for Modern Combat suck?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAugust:
It's pretty much a consensus regarding Gameloft's shooter controls. EA's Dead Space and Battlefield are supposed to be great, though.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashtrix:
Just take your time and go through every bit of the threads i can make sure that you will find the best ROM !!

I would say that get Darky's v10.3 EE (ime) and the link is below!

http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/rom-cwm-sgs-cappy-darkyrom-xxjvr-10-3.4508/

it is the best rom you can get without OC but if you want to get OC, then there are 2 options but the latter one is preferable when it comes to OC !!

1)Get Semaphore kernel v1.6.x or Galaxian GT version and use Voltage control

(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=829731) or setcpu or pimpmycpu in Darky's ROM !

2)Get CM7+Glitch Kernel v12 BETA (OC'ing upto 1.7 incl. GPU ) follow the link.

in the above link check the 2.3.4 Odin3 method not the ROM!

just use it for only switchig through ROM's and Android versions but for Kernel flashing get Neldar's SGS flashing tool app from market.

If you are on Jetpack or Darky you can get a custom rom tool from their ROM DEV page or market!

and learn Gooogling the problems out!!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dubs:
Hi all,

I tried rooting my Nook today following this procedure using unooter

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barnes_&_Noble_Nook_Color:_Full_Update_Guide

I got up to Gaining Root Access. After unplugging from the pc the nook won't power up.

After than the nook will not turn on. Hold the power button down, or all the buttons, nothing.

I plug the charger in and the green 'n' light on the usb cable is always green. Also when plugged into my PC and Mac.

If I plug into a Mac, it recognises it as an additional Ethernet device.

I tried restoring based on this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914690

But no luck. Nook won't boot or startup.

Any thoughts??
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taosaur:
In either of those processes, did you create a bootable ClockworkMod Recovery SD card? If not, grab this image, extract it, and write it to your SD card:

1GB CWM Card

It doesn't matter how big your card is, the 1GB image will work for our purposes. After you write the image, put these two files on the card (do not unzip):

update-nc-stock-1.2-keepcwm-signed.zip

repartition-boot-with-stock.zip

Hopefully you'll only need to use the first one. Put the card in the NC and attempt to power on--hopefully it will boot to the recovery menu on the card. Volume buttons are up/down, home is select, power is back.

First, in mounts and storage format system and data. When done, go back to the main menu (power button). This step may not be necessary, but won't hurt.

Now, install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard, and try update-nc-stock-1.2-keepcwm-signed.zip.

When it's done installing, hold the power button until the NC shuts off, remove the card, and power back on. If this works, the first boot will take a few minutes.

If it doesn't work, put the card back, boot to recovery again, install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard, and try the repartition boot zip.

Let us know how it goes.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyfingersfly:
so i installed cwrecovery, rooted my NS and renamed install-recovery.sh. then I installed a few root-only apps (ROM manager, ROM toolbox, titanium, file expert, etc) and tried oxygen2.2.2 and devnull1-1. now i want to restore the stock recovery image so I renamed install-recovery.sh back. but when i reboot into recovery, cwm5.0.1 is still there. isn't the install-recovery.sh supposed to restore the stock recovery image when i reboot the phone?

I rooted a friend's NS earlier today, this time just unlocking the bootloader, flashing cwm5.0.1, and installing su (did not rename install-recovery.sh). when that phone rebooted, it no longer had the cwm5.0.1 image.

whats up with my install-recovery.sh? why doesn't it restore my recovery?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
My guess is the install-recovery.sh has to be called by some startup script, which *I think* does not exist in those custom ROMs.

In your friend's case, because his NS is still on stock ROM it makes sense that the install-recovery.sh was called properly.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyfingersfly:
sorry. forgot to say this: i have reverted to the stock rooted Gingerbread ROM (restored via cwm backup). so i'm no longer running devnull or oxygen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snandlal:
Install recovery.sh is a stock binary. You don't rename anything to make this file. It is patched in with OTA updates.

So......put intall-recovery.sh in /etc and put recovery-from-boot in /system

http://db.tt/hLKJDY0

http://db.tt/M2fKfC3

^^^both files above^^^
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyfingersfly:
thanks. i'll check those files out. i didnt "make" the install-recovery.sh file from anything. I took the original file and renamed it to install-recovery.sh.old to prevent it from overwriting the cwm recovery image with the stock image.

now that I WANT it to overwrite the CWM image, i renamed it back to install-recovery.sh but its not working.

i didnt touch recovery-from-root.p, just install-recovery.sh
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
In that case I think you should check the file permissions -- it should be something like rwxr-x-r-x.

oh wow. can't believe i missed that. LOL.

That was it. Thanks!

(The said settings will depend on the type of VPN protocol and the respective VPN Service you want to setup on your device)

Let’s Try L2TP VPN Details:

VPN Name: Name it whatever you want, e.g. VPN 1

VPN Server: IP Address or Address would be given to your by your VPN Provider or Network Admin.

L2TP Secret: It will be given by you VPN Service Provider or Admin. It’s secret security key to ensure that we are connecting to the right mobile device and server.

Actually i had also faced such kind of problem then i configure it somehow.

And i am pretty much sure that you are either entering wrong user name, password or server name. I mentioned server name / address because it is the main problem which user facing at the time of setting up the vpn on their devices. So kindly try to configure it again with the correct details or you must contact t the concern VPN Provider regarding the same.

This will save your power button. This app uses motion detected by your proximity sensor to turn your phone on.

Just installed it and it works awesome. Works so good you can just hold your phone and wiggle your thumb in front of the sensor and it turns on. All with the same hand

Here is the link to it in the market. Enjoy

Hit up my THANKS if you liked it.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Hmm... I'm giving this a try now. I'm worried how it will function in my pocket. Also, I'm more comfortable using my phone in my right hand.and reaching the sensor with the right hand isn't totally comfortable. But, I'll play with it and see how I like it. Cool app anyways. So thanks!

I had to use this on my O.G. Evo because i had worn out the power button from flashing too much. Seems like it worked ok but at times it would lock up where I couldnt get it to turn the phone on to save my life. Ofcurse I'm sure they've gone thru plenty of updates since then.

I don't have any real use for this....but it is pretty cool!

[HTC EVO 3D] doctor ladd:
This would be helpful for the seidio extended battery since the power button doesn't really work

Wouldn't the difference be that you have to just lightly tap the proximity sensor while you have to actually press down on the power button? I don't foresee any paint rubbing off around the sensor.

It works about half an inch from the phone also so no need to touch

So.. using the ssensor to lock the screen is worthless if you want to play games on the phone.

You and I must be cut from the same cloth, lol.

Well, I firgured something out for me. I set a profile in tasker to when i have the phone face down.and the sensor cover it'll lock the phone. Then to unlock I just tap the sensor using the tap tap app.
[Acer Iconia A500] burnout69:
Hello guys, ive juz got my iconia a few days ago.. its my first time using android. Its relatively new to me compared to apple. Ive notice that a few apps is running without me opening e application. is tis normal? ive tried to force close.. but after awhile it comes back up n running again?
[Acer Iconia A500] xamilek555:
What apps?

Wysłano z Acer A500
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
Generally speaking, yes, this is normal.

Those apps are put into standby and some apps run automatically like Systemupdater, Acer Sync etc... Other apps, like Photo Browser 3D, nemoPlayer, even Maps etc - will start but not in the sense of 'start' like we would think. They are ready states (as I understand them) and in some cases will stay ready or swap out when resources are getting light and the OS needs more headroom.

"By default, every application runs in its own Linux process. Android starts the process when any of the application's components need to be executed, then shuts down the process when it's no longer needed or when the system must recover memory for other applications."

So even if you don't launch and application manually, it could easy start up on it own if a component of it was executed (on some level).

It is not recommended to force-close applications unless the application is causing problems - in which case, uninstalling it is the better option.
[Acer Iconia A500] burnout69:
yes those r the apps that has been running.. tried closing them by using android task manager.. for a moment it will juz start again..by uninstalling them, wats the risks of running my other apps? will it caused any problems?
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
I (though others would say the opposite) do not recommend uninstalling anything that came preloaded with the tablet. Both for stability reasons and future updates - if however you're really REALLY obsessing over getting back a dozen megabytes of allocated memory from those minor apps then you're going to have to go the whole long road down root avenue and backing up those applications etc ad nauseam. You can get all the info you need throughout the forum.

My advice is, don't worry about those native apps running in the background - if the OS needs more resources it will manage them on it's own. It's not like Windows where you can kill running programs or processes willy-nilly from the task manager when you want to free up memory - in Android, the OS does this as it sees fit, on its own. If it wants more juice, it will make more juice available to itself.
[Acer Iconia A500] yyiinn:
I had the same issues.. a quick fix i ran was to root my tablet and install "bloat freezer" from the market.

it simply stops the processes from running, so your not un-installing them just stopping them from running, Im now seeing my free ram running at appx 65% free at any time which is much better than before.

If i do want to use skype or whatever i simply unfreeze them and freeze them again when finished..

hope this helps..

<edit>

just to let you know i have frozen all of the acer bundled apps
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
Freezing apps is an option. I don't do that so I have no experienced opinion as far as that goes.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
i agree with gamma

These apps are not really running. They are connected to context menues.like when younare in camera app and you click the share image menus.you will see the apps that can share the image such at Facebook Picasso dropbox and so on.these are the apps setting in static mode.I know in nor totally correct but its the closes I can do to describe.if your statement needs the memory or CPU cycles these apps might be using it will shut them down..I have tested this theory by launching many apps and logging processes.

task killers running in the background work against the built in memory and resources management's.

Good luck.if im wrong anyone please correct the post.just do so nicely

Don't make the blonde geeky chic cry giggles
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
That does freeze those apps.but if the system needed that ram it would do the same.it gives foreground ape priority.if that or those apps need the resources.the system will kill the lowest priority apps.

Of course thee are some rogue apps that do not play fair.if you find them then uninstall.I use advanced task killer.but never let it run in background.just can launch it lookat what's running. Then close it it will not restart itself
[Acer Iconia A500] yyiinn:
I understand the memory management. But i would rather applications especially skype to run when i want and not as the system see's fit. Social jogger was another culprit they were my biggest bug bears..
