[G Tablet General] sjmoreno:
I've been pretty happy with my gTab with the streaming video options I have used (Netflix, Crackle, Hulu, AmazonPrime and Fox TV) and then I read about the iPlayer from the BBC. Apparently residents of the U.K. pay a yearly tax on their television sets so the BBC makes all of this content available to residents. They have announced plans to allow non-U.K. residents to use the iPlayer for a monthly fee (which like Hulu and Netflix I would gladly pay for) but as of today they haven't launched that service. So I signed up for a VPN service which allows me to log on as if I am in the U.K. so when I bring up the BBC iPlayer webpage or the iPlayer app I am able to stream and/or download recent content for later viewing. You can even watch live tv feeds and pretty soon they will update the app to allow for more older on demand shows/episodes.

I signed up with StrongVPN ($55/year) but there are a lot of other providers out there. It pays to do a bit of research but I can log on from my Windows PCs as well as my android phones, the gTab running VEGAn 5.1.1 with Pershoot's 2632.43 kernel, or my wife's Color Nook running CM 7.

Thought some folks might find this useful.

Hi

I have this code in my chargemon file. I think I got it from Wolfbreaks ROM.

No, you have to elaborate that explenation a bit. I don't belive what you say.

Yes but not from that code.

I can comment that code out (#) and still have all the governors left to choose from.

This is a database of which service provders carrier you are on and such stuff.

I just don get what the "fix" is.

What does the command ...

then

/system/bin/chroot / /init

.... do when it finds that database? Any Linux knowledge? I guess I have to learn the hard way myself
[Android Apps and Games] satya164:
HI friends. I made an android app named Test Hub. The app is pretty simple. You can practice or test HTML tags with it. It uses your phone's Webkit engine and result is displayed as you type.

I've also included a input method meant for web development. To activate the input method, go to "Settings > Language & Keyboard" and check the box next to "Test Hub". Now when in a text box, long touch the screen and choose "Input Method". Now choose "Test Hub" and now you can use the input method. The most used keys are easily accessible.

[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
Search brough back nothing.

Im using the latest cwm, I do fresh install of HV 1.05a and its kernal.

I do a full backup using the latest cwm.

The problem comes when when I use cwm to do a full restore, it works but after full restore super user denies everything.

The only way to use is not to use the cwm restore.

Anyone used the cwm full restore and got the same...?

Any fix...? Any comments

I had already replyed to the thread above. How do you uninstall su that is built into the HV rom. Thanks for the link though.

I found my problem is in cwm, it backs up fine, but upon restore, su denies all apps. As long as I don't use cwm restore, it works fine, guess I will have to find another backup method.
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
I find that happens also. Can connect to a PC and run an adb shell and type 'chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su' and your back in business. Or just reroot with iconia root.

The reroot worked just fine, will try the chmod after bit. Thanks and later on.

Where can I get info on,"chmod 06755", I see alot and would like to know what the conversion is. Later on.
[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
The problem with chmod is that the file it wants to change is read only and requires root to change it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jctx13:
love this rom, upgraded to 3.0 and dig it, only hangup i'm experiencing is that i'm suddenly having issues regarding internal memory...other than updating the rom from 2.1, i've made no changes nor added any apps, however, upon upgrading, i all of a sudden didn't have enough space for all of the apps i had on here before and now i'm constantly getting low storage prompts when attempting to get on a browser or updating existing apps...initially thought maybe it was due to not going through full wipe on update, so went back and completely wiped and installed rom, issue still remains, please advise on what might be happening here, thanks in advance

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJGO23:
Your best bet would be to wipe the cache of your apps. I think there are apps in the Android market that do this for you.

If I've helped you, hit the thanks button!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jctx13:
well i have done that as well via ES Task manager, but still come back to the same problem; "low memory" and unable to load any of my previous apps, nor update the ones that actually did load..i don't see why it would suddenly be an issue, when it never was before changing the rom, doesn't make sense..confusing, but would like to get this resolved..thanks

Turn off Automatic restore in Settings - Privacy

Boot into recovery, wiping system / cache / dalvik

Only install NBS 3.0 v2.2

Reboot

Do Not sign into any account

Do Not restore any apps

Do Not use Market

Go to Settings-SD & phone storage-

Note your Phone memory "available space"

Use the "Make more space" option if desired

Restart normally

Sign into your Google account

Start restoring apps manually through the Market first

Keep track of your phone memory and wear the apps are being installed to

The idea is to find out what apps take up the most space in your phone memory and move whatever you can to your sdcard. Also, by not checking "Automatic restore" in Settings-Privacy, you control what gets installed.

Good luck and please repost here your results, good, bad or indifferent.

Much love my friend,

hello i´m new

i want to flash my hd2 from windows to android . but i dont know which is the best one..

could anyone please help me?
[General Questions and Answers] dixon_coxon:
So for starters, you should visit this section where there are all the guides that walk you through how to flash android .

Also there are 2 ways to run android on the HD2 i.e

1) run it on your SD card - this allows you to run windows then boot android on top of windows (personally i'm not a fan of this, but there are reasons why one may like this approach)

2)Nand - This allows you to boot your HD2 as an android phone

There will be a lot of reading for you to do, and always search the forum and you will find tons of answers.

Basically once i set a PIN code, everytime i wake up the phone it immediately goes into this PIN code screen instead of the lockscreen where you swipe right to unlock then lets you enter the PIN code.

Is this how it's suppose to work for the SGS2?

REflash

You should wipe your data and flash the ROM again. If you have Clockworkmod Recovery, you can wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions.

Remember that wiping data will delete all existing user data on your internal memory. Backup if needed ^_^
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keyblade4321:
I recently got a new Samsung Galaxy Tab (GT-P1000) in India and i took back to U.S. After intense researching i finally was able to root it. Now I found a whole new array of questions and problems.

Here they are:

1. I cant seem to overclock it even with SetPU

2. I have no idea what ROMs will work on my model.

3. I have no idea what ODIN is and where i can get it.

4.On ROM Manager when i try to download the clockwork recovery mod thing i dont see my model. I only see sprint,verizon, and t-mobile models.

5. How do i upgrade my model to gingerbread.

6. How do i use ROM Manager.

7. My tab seems to be slow do you guys have any solution to make i lightning speed.

I am sorry i have repeated previously answered questions but when i check the forums it is difficult to find answers and guides for my specific model.

I will update if i have anymore questions.

New Question: What is the best ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Tab[GSM] that is super fast, easy to use, easy to install, highly customizable(looks wise), and looks good.

If you guys can show me a list of the benefits and disavantages of each ROM then that would be great.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheatman:
Challenge accepted!

1. You probably have the GSM model. Without a modded kernel, you probably won't be able to overclock it. Why do you want to do that anyway, at this point?

2. All ROMs that have [GSM] specified in the thread name, except maybe N/L ones.

3. Don't worry about Odin. ROM threads have how-to's. Start off by reading the Overcome threads. Read carefully the first few posts.

4. Don't worry about that.

5. Read the Overcome thread. Use the ROM, flash it, there you go.

6. You don't need to use it yet. After you read the Overcome documentation, you will understand.

7. Appreciate your device. Lightning fast for Samsung may not be the same thing to you. Overcome, MIUI, BOCA and CM7 are all very powerful ROMs. Check them out.

PS: Thanks for posting in the right forum!

Cheers,

C.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keyblade4321:
I have taken in every word and it has helped me take off a load of questions. I still have one question that might contradict your reply. I have read the the GSM ROM threads and gingerbread threads and they all say something about flashing it on your system with odin. I really confused, i am sorry if my newbieness is annoying but i just want to make my tab awesome ondemand.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
The overcome thread has links to ODIN and their guide on how to upgrade to gingerbread (download it as its VERY useful when 1st starting). Before doing anything though find out what your stock rom is and see if you can find it, will be helpful if something goes wrong with the flash, also check what radio you have now (again good tohave a copy if you want to revert to stock for warranty). There's a heap of information (posted in overcomes thread again, Thank you overcome) that will tell you what radio (modem.bin) you will need. Overcomes thread will also supply the p1000_mr.pit file and the stock gingerbread rom that you need before flashing to a lot of other roms.

Happy flashing and remember, reading the steps, not skipping ahead and asking if you're not sure of something is always a good thing...

Cheers...:D
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keyblade4321:
What overcome thread. Everybody speaks of it but i have no idea what it is. Can someone please give me a link.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treb1971:
Go to the Galaxy Tab Dev Thread. The Overcome Kratos thread is always on the first page, because it's so popular.

Before you load any ROM, make sure you copy your existing ROM, and verify it, so that you can restore if needed. I believe Roto Backup does this.

I didn't back up my stock ROM and now I don't have a way to get back to Stock. But the Overcome Kratos ROM is good.

Don't know if this is a troll or just a lack of understanding.

You can determine in the options how often you want to to check your various email accounts. For example, one of my accounts I only need checked every hour, while another one I have check ever 15 minutes.

Social network updates are pushed to the phone in real time. I just got a FB notification and the comment had only happened 30 seconds prior.

IM works real time like text.

MS knows what they're doing.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henry084:
I guess your machine will juiced out within 6 hours if your run WiFi all the time, which is simply no point. I don't think you will charge your phone every 4-5 hours or bring 5-6 batteries along with you.

Phone will turn on WiFi only when you are going to use the internet (while screen on) or when receiving the mails/messages as scheduled (while screen off), so you can still receive your mails and messages when it is idling.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sir. Haxalot:
I think his problem is that he's lacking a data contract(?) In that case he can't get any real time updates, but it should still connect to Wi-Fi for the periodic checks.

WiFi is a little different in mango. If I am using last.fm and turn off the screen, WiFi stays on instead of switching to 3g. Nodo would turn off WiFi.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regspy:
Few things to note:

Wifi will drop at screen lock if its not utilized. It will sign you out from your messenger and stop receiving emails etc.

If you have DATA (edge or 3G) that will keep the connection alive.

If you have plugged in your phone to a electric socket then and ONLY then the wifi will stay alive at screen lock.

Wifi drops in about 30sec at screen lock.

Android drops wifi at screenlock by default, BUT you have an option under settings to keep it alive. iPhone prior to iOS4 used to drop wifi at screenlock but not anymore and has no impact on battery life what so ever. 3G consumes more battery than Wifi.

wp7 mango is amazingly fast, but no OS is perfect. Probably in future it will be much better. For now if you are dependent on chat, email and other notification then wp7 and Data package work gr8.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ammarmalik:
If my Android can last one whole day with Wifi on 24 hours(Galaxy S2) then WP7 should last longer. WiFi radio DOES NOT consume a lot of battery. Please get these retarded Android thoughts out of your mind. I'm not exactly aiming for the moon here. All I want is to get my push notifications AS THEY HAPPEN.

Someone mentioned in this thread that it periodically reconnects even with screen off to check for updates. Well if that's the case then I can forget about push notifications right? Because for those to work I'll need internet access on my phone constantly and not on periodic intervals.

I'm not trolling here. This was a genuine problem for me on my old WP7 device. The phone would disconnect WiFi when in standby. I have a perfectly fine working internet connection at home and I'm not about to sign up for an expensive data plan from my cellular network provider.

What I need to know is will I get IM push notifications, email push notifications

on WiFi when my screen has been off for a longer period of time? If I'm not then what exactly is the reason behind this? Does MS except everyone to have a data plan?
