[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Len_TAb:
This may sound like a weird question, but I am just curious to know if it is possible to install windows 7, or xp on Galaxy tab 10.1. As my limited knowledge about computers tells me, GT is essentially a computer with a cpu and ram and a kind of hard drive, so theoretically at least, it seems to me that it should be possible to install windows on the tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slack04:
Welcome to the forums. The answer is no. Windows won't run on the chip that's in the tablet (it's called ARM architecture; same reason windows won't run on a cellphone). I've heard rumors that windows 8 may be possible at some point.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5thElement:
I have Windows 7 on my Tab 10 so yes you can use Windows 7.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NightFire123:
and how did you manage this?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burhanistan:
You have the install disc sitting on your Tab?

Seriously, though. That sounds like horse**** from the same guy who claims to have played with Kal-el devices. Let's see a video.

Excuse the fumbling. It's hard to work the screen looking at the phone screen. And I should mention that we only have an 802.11g connection here at work.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5thElement:
Thank you Jay Evans for proving them wrong.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burhanistan:
Well, holy hell! That means I have OS X Lion running on my Tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Len_TAb:
Thank you for the replies. Although I understand that some of us here might be in a rather humorous mood, but just to clarify: my question was not about remote desktops. I still think there has to be a way to have windows running on GT. Another question in this regard is about virtual machines. Is there any kind of VM available for honeycomb tablets?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay Evans:
While it might be possible you wouldn't enjoy the results. Especialy if you want to run actual programs on it. It would be as slow as molassas and suck the battery dry in no time.

Better to buy a Win 7 tablet and wait for something like Bluestacks to run Android or wait for the ARM version of Win 8.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Serious_Beans:
It won't happen, Windows is based off x86 architecture and Android Tablets and phones are based off of ARM architecture, Windows 8 will have support for ARM though, so wait a year :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uhm57:
While the answer to your question is still 'no', it is possible to run Windows 95 or 98 using emulators. There is a QEMU port for Android ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6661598 ) that does it, and I've also heard that you can install windows using AnDosBox.

Hello people,

I have a Samsung galaxy mini gt-s5570

I automatically lock my phone with a pincode to prevent that I call people when my phone is in my pocket. But somehow when my phone is in my pocket, it turns off.

very annoying, but when my phone is at the nightstand, the phone never turns off.

when I put my phone in standby (screen is blank) and I hold the powerbutton for a while, then it turns off.

I don't want that

can I do something about this?

the operating system is Android 2.2.1 Froyo

sorry for my english bad.:confused:
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Mika Dee:
Request denied. Possible reasons are as follows;

1. Read the posting rules in this forum. This is a development section not a request section. Post it in general section.

2. It was uploaded in multiupload, "multi" means multiple mirrors. Is all the hosting site there was banned from your country?

I believe mediafire is fast and can be resumed unlike those hosting site in multiupload but lastly its there choice.

1st my name is juan i am new here.

i already did the steps One-Click-G2x-recovery-flasher-09-06

and was able to Booting into ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0

i download cyanogenmod 7 and try to run it but after everything is done

i get the cyanogenmod 7 reboot loop, also i was able to restore back to

the way i had it. i am a total noob at this, so i can use ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0 does that mean i root my cell or not. i also download super user.

i tried to root my self since SuperOneClick v2.1.1 did not work for me since it always froze on step 6.i would love any help i can get to root my phone and be able to use apps such as Titanium Backup/super user or rom manger.

thanks for you time
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Did you clear the Dalvik cache and do a factory reset? If not you will most likely get a reboot loop. You should format the system, user area and Dalvik cache any time you change roms, or the loop is likely. Try again but zap everything first. Good luck.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] itachi_the_reaper:
OK I did as you said it works fine now I have super user and rom manager working without it saying I need a rooted device. Now I am back to my default for the main reason that I didn't have my apps,android market,contacts and I could not connect to my T-Mobile network.I read I can use titanium backup for but I can't since it tells me I need a root my device. Anything I can do about this?

Should I installl the P999_2.3.3_Stock_OTA.zip I found on this forum would that give me root access sorry for the noon questions and thanks for helping me on this.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
If you install CM 7 it is already rooted. You an also install the pre-rooted OTA and it will be rooted. I suggest just starting over, logging into Google and reinstalling all your apps. I have had bad luck and near disasters trying to use Titanium backup to restore settings on other devices. It only takes about an hour to redo everything on Android.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] itachi_the_reaper:
i would like my phone to be rooted and not lose or have to reinstall everything i am still trying SuperOneClick v2.1.1 but i finally got pass step 6 and am now stuck on step 7 >,<
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Super One Click doesn't work. Google closed the exploits that made it possible in new Gingerbread builds. I have been working on a way to do it without having to redo everything but so far it is not working. Hopefully soon. Will post something when and if I get it working.

thats to bad v,v i got to step 7 using this

but at least i know i can install a rom, just wish i did lose my data. guess i have to wait and hope thanks for the help
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gringo75:
2.3.3 doesnt have a root working thru one click u need to do the nvflashrecovery process and have the prerooted rom on your phone to flash after you get the recovery on your phone. So i'd start over get the rom you want dl it to your phone then follow the nvflashrecovery process. After its done acsess it and follow the steps on flashing the rom you downloaded. If the market doesnt let you download anything do this go settings-> manage apps-> click all apps-> scroll down to market-> wipe data. This should allow you to reinstall your apps

Rooting my G2x (got CWM working already)

Hello everyone! Big time noob here, and was hoping to have some questions answered regarding rooting a G2x that came with Gingerbread (2.3.3) stock. I searched and read quite a few threads, which answered a lot, but a few questions still stuck out. Any help is very much appreciated!

My process so far was to start at this thread. That referred me to TGA_Gunnman's guide on flashing CWM (via Nvflasher) at this thread. That worked well, and I'm able to boot into CWM. So far so good, but here's where the questions come in.

In TGA_Gunnman's guide, there's a link saying to view the Getting Started Guide located at this thread. That Getting Started Guide links back to the "CWM via Nvflasher" guide, so I performed those steps as mentioned earlier (step 2.1 in the Getting Started Guide). Then it says to install ROM Manager (step 2.2) and so on to create backups. Hmm...

From the first thread I linked, and some other threads, it looks like once I have CWM bootable using the Power/Volume Down button method, I just need to clear data/caches and then flash the rooted ROM of my choice. Please chime in if this is incorrect (though from the replies in the thread, my understanding seems correct).

(Q1) Using this method, is there any way to perform an initial backup (Titanium, etc)? It doesn't seem like it, and I'd hate to lose all my apps and have to reinstall/configure, but it's not that big of a deal. (I did a Nandroid backup via CWM already, as detailed in step 4 of the Getting Started Guide.) I see some folks in this thread recommended just re-installing the apps, which is not out of the question. Just thought that if a backup/restore was possible, it might be worth a try.

(Q2) I have to ask: what ROM(s) do you recommend?

Thanks in advance for any help and information you can provide! :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] itachi_the_reaper:
Oh I can help I just had the same problem OK you can do the following 1st make sure u have a SD card one big enough I have a 8gb next you can back up apps, contacts and settings using antivirus pro u can just Google the apk n install it.I didn't want to change much in my phone so I just download Gingerbread 2.3.3 rom

Then restore my apps then my contacts and such.

Stuff u need

Antivirus pro-for backup

Rom of ur choice

Androzip- to install apk if u dl antivirus pro apk

This is the rom I used

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179748

You may use whatever rom u want

Now 1st u use antivirus pro to back up apps and contacts then you can install your rom when done you can use androzip to explore your SD card and find the antivirus pro apk install then restore you apps and contacts sadly the apps lose all data so that means new game n such I hope this long explanation helped I just learned this today ..

[Defy General] blackice_bg:
Uhhh, I'm not really sure that's exactly true. What exactly are you referring to by "boot IC"? the chip that stores the bootloader or something else? How were you able to determine that's what happened?
[Defy General] farsight73:
I don't see any issue of how many times flasing would fried the Defy if you use the correct/original cable and the correct USB port => PC or Laptop.

It can take it just as like your ordinary USB thumb-drive flash memory where you repeatedly copy/paste, move and delete files without much issues.

Of course there is wear and tear of any hardware related but nothing to worried much about it AFAIK. BY the time this wear and tear comes, you would probably already switched to another device/phone.

[HD2 General] DigitalWabbit:
I ordered a ADATA 8GB MicroSDHC Class 10 memory card for my HTC HD2. I'd like to know if it will work well on my phone since the transfer is so high. I'm asking this because I want to use a SD version on android.

Thank you in advance for the answer!
[HD2 General] GLO:
When i asked my friend who was the Sales Director of Sandisk Australiasia, he said that the read and write speeds of the supplied Class 2 was more than enough, since these Class 2 is the minimum guaranteed write speeds for that card.

Personally, i'd like to use a faster card, but i think that the key here is the quality of the card over the speed. Im using android over SD and dont mind the negligible lag.

Perhaps someone who has tried a faster card can comment on Droid on SD, as NAND speed offers the fastest, but without the flexibility.
[HD2 General] DigitalWabbit:
I found a really old thread where people were saying it is fully supported. Thanks for the answer! I want to use android on the sd too because I don't really want to risk messing up my phone with a rom install.
[HD2 General] Dr.Move:
It's been around for ages that the speed of the SD doesn't matter for SD android.

what matters is the access time, here's a thread for benchmarks:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1048649

the smaller the access time the better. in other words, you might get a class 10 card with long access time, and a class 2 with short access time, the class 2 will perform better overall (faster system loading, etc). but when you copy large files the class 10 will be faster.

meaning: for running android on SD you need a faster access time, and each millisecond counts.

[edit] forgot to say that random read and write speeds play a good role as well.
[HD2 General] suloch:
I use PNY 32GB class 10 MicroSD card in my HD2. No problem at all. Phone is only one week old and haven't installed any cooked ROM yet so 32GB card on stock ROM.
[HD2 General] Dr.Move:
yes, a class 10 would work perfect with stock or custom windows ROMs. and with NAND android to some point.

I'm talking about SD android which, in case you haven't read the previous posts, he wants to run a build on his SD. and that's where the class 10 cards start to look bad. they mostly have slower random read/write speeds. In usage terms that's: lags, lags, errors, and more lags.

After going through many of the different lock ring tutorials, I have noticed that they all have something in common: They are too user intensive and prone to user-error. Sure, once you have it down, it's easy. But it can be daunting to start out.

All I have done here is make it EXTREMELY user friendly.

No more copying and pasting into ZIPs and APKs!!

No more fishing around the Templates tree in M10 Tools!!!

Simply run the BATCH file, get a cup of coffee, and then flash!

Here are the detailed instructions... (also in the Read-Me)

0. Make sure you have installed Microsoft .net 4 framework on your machine.

http://www.microsoft.com/net

1. Unpack User_Friendly_Lock_Screen_Kit_v1.04.zip (Where you put the file does not matter anymore!!!! For example purposes, I will use C:\Lock_Ring_Kit)

2. Copy your image into C:\Lock_Ring_Kit and name it LockRing.png

Image requirements:

a. Must be a PNG file

b. Image must be 271 x 270 pixels (If it is not the right size, it will come out looking funny (270x271 WILL NOT WORK)

c. The image must be rotated 180 degrees and reflected horizontally.

3. Double-click "LockRingCreator.bat" and let it do its thing.

4. Flashable.zip was just created for you. Rename it whatever you wish.

5. Copy it to the root of your SD card, boot into recovery, and flash

The BATCH file cleans up after itself. You don't have to go through and delete any of the old files. If you want to make another one, just change out the PNG and run it again. My desktop is pretty old, and the BATCH takes about 2 minutes to run.

I have only tested this on Synergy, but I assume that it will work on similar ROMs. I also believe that it will work on the Thunderbolt (can someone confirm that?)

All files are included in the ZIP.

User_Friendly_Lock_Ring_Kit_v1.05.zip

Error Reporting

This is a work in progress. If you have an issue, please post it on the thread. Also, please copy and paste the output from the command prompt so we can get to the bottom of it. (Right click on command prompt, Select All, the then press ENTER. It is now ready to paste.)

Acknowledgments:

jmaher1023 - I used his process as a template. All that my BATCH file does is automate his process

Flemmard and DiamondBack2010- I have no idea what M10 Tools does or how much trouble they had to go through to make it, but I do know that it is the heart and soul of this whole operation.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Indirect:
I'll try this out, thanks alot dude. :p
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TDubKong:
One thing you didn't mention is that the images still need to be 271 X 270 or they won't look right. Other than that this works on Gingeritis3d. (And if I want to say I was the one to create the lock ring I might edit the script) lol. Very good work though man. Very useful tool. Have you been able to find where the images are located for the Amazing sense skin? I haven't found those yet and want to use that semi transparent tool bar at the bottom but dont want to use a different launcher
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] IDRFT95S14:
somehow i cant get it to work ive followed every step but when i run the

"LockRingCreator.bat" it just goes into cmd really fast and nothing happens
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gamendorf:
Fixed in OP. I put that in the ReadMe, but forgot it on the thread Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll add a lit of confirmed ROMS that this works for.

Navigate to C:\Lock_Ring_KitTemplate\META-INF\com\google\android

There is a file named "updater-script" Rename it updater-script.txt, and open it for editing. Just look for my name and replace it with yours. Make sure you take the .txt off after saving

No Idea
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gamendorf:
What operating system are you running? Do you have Microsoft .net 4 framework installed on your system?

When it is working properly, after you run the BATCH file you should see a command window running various commands for a little while.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TDubKong:
did you

did you make sure the file was named LockRing and was a png format? Something else to consider is that if you named a png image lockring.png then when it looks for the file it will see lockring.png.png so make sure it is a png format image but only name it LockRing.Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TDubKong:
Thanks brudda. I was only kidding about renaming the script. I knew where to find it. I can run a couple other ROMS if you want. I got nothing better to do tonight. Let me know which ones you want to add to your list and i'll do a couple.
