[Motorola Droid Bionic] charlie310:
I've been searching for this post. I am also very observant, and I noticed this blue matrix. Seems not a lot of other people notice it. I can also confirm that it varies in visibility across different phones. I have 2 Bionics side-by-side, one where the matrix is clear as day in room lighting, and another where it is hard to see in room lighting.

On a side note, I would like to say that Moto quality control needs improvement. My 1st Bionic came with a small nick on the top right metal frame, but the blue matrix screen is hardly noticable. But, on my 2nd Bionic, there are no nicks are scratches yet the screen looks like a chessboard. I would like to exchange it for another, but I am pretty sure I'll just get a Bionic with another issue. Decided to keep the chessboard Bionic.

In the developer section i've seen a thread about custom kernel.

Which improvements this kernel carries?

Thx for the reply!:D
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Theshawty:
As of now, there are no real improvements except that we can finally add full custom ROMs and not ROMs which are based on the stock kernel.

Hello there,

I have a problem when trying to connect my portable HD (250GB) through USB adapter, it say that is not possible to conncet. I though the problem was the adapter, but not because I could connect a regular USB memory.

Anyone has been this problem, and What was the solve?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steckums:
My guess is that the drive is in NTFS format and not something Android can read, like FAT32.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokpog:
It's either the file system as mentioned by steckums or the usb adapter doesn't provide enough power for the hard disk to run.

Almost all usb hard disk drives require "high power" from the usb port which the adapter can not deliver. It should say so in the error message. You need a powered usb hub to connect a usb drive to the Tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chechotoro:
Thanks for reply, if this is the cause will be imposible to connect my HD? or if I connect a hub to the adapter the HD will works?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokpog:
Yes, the following has been reported to work as long as the HDD is formated to FAT32:

USB HDD - powered USB hub - USB Adapter - Galaxy Tab 10.1
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chechotoro:
I'll try it, and report
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chechotoro:
I tried but didnt work.

I connected the HDD to regular hub and nothing, i never know what is a powered hub. Then a reformat the HDD to FAT 32 and the tablet was not able to start.

The last test was try to connect a powered HDD and this one was reconized by tablet but the oroblem was the format.

In conclusion the problem is the power and the format of HDD.

Thanks for your answers

I just got my new sensation :)

I want to transfer my SMS messages from my USB bricked desire (yes I've tried to fix it but no joy) but when I try the transfer via bluetooth it only offers my contacts.

Any way of doing this (bare in mind I can't connect via USB) ?

Thanks.

Do they backup to the cloud ?
[HTC Sensation] pjd007:
I need to be able to backup to the cloud, as I said the desire is bricked and so I don't have access to my SD card.

Is there an app that backups to the cloud or another method ?
[HTC Sensation] sosquidtaste:
That's actually a damn good question. There is an app called just "SMS Backup" that apparently backs up all of your texts to neatly-organized Labels in your Gmail account, which seems kind of nice. It doesn't appear to have any way of restoring those backed-up messages to a new phone, however. Also note that is another, similarly-named app called "SMS Backup & Restore" which only backs up an XML file to your SD Card-- that's definitely not what you want.

A somewhat wackier solution might be found thanks to this thread: http://androidcommunity.com/forums/f4/data-file-storage-location-for-sms-messages-23299/

If you can navigate with, like, Root Explorer (or some similar file-manager app with elevated access privileges), you can try to locate /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db and export that file to Gmail or Dropbox or something like that. I know ASTRO lets you share files by long-pressing it, so I'm assuming that root-privileged file-managers will do the same.

Once mmssms.db is exported, I'm not totally sure what you'd do from there. Although I hope it's just a matter of replacing the .DB file on the new phone with the .DB uploaded from the old phone, I get the feeling it might not be just that easy.
[HTC Sensation] sosquidtaste:
Oops! It looks like the app I was thinking about is not "SMS Backup", but "SMS Backup+" which is advertised as being able to backup to Gmail Labels as well as to restore SMS (but not MMS) to new phones. Give that a whirl.

if you've had this problem how much did it cost to fix?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aR_ChRiS:
Once again, if you haven't unlocked your bootloader then it's impossible to completely brick your phone, you can always enable flash mode and flash firmwares as long as you have all SE drivers installed.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] canna666:
ive tried to flash stock 2.1 with flash tool but i flash old rom (2.1) with xrecovery by mistake over 2.3 custom rom & kernal after that everythink started to go wrong xrecovery worked once then said can't mount sd card also refused to flash wolf v4 due to sd card not mounted, so i reboot then xrecovery was broken then i tried flash tool again it said starting to flash but failed as debugging was off but i had problem with xrecovery and rom would not boot tried few times then it did not show the sony ericsson logo on boot & it has black screen been like this ever scine and 100% cannot load in flashtool it says unknown device when connected. also i did not use bootloader unlock & i have tried pc companion & se update tool neither pick up phone
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Nightmare:
Turn the phone off completely, get the stock firmware you want to flash, choose to flash it via flash tool and wait till it shows up for you to plug in the phone, put the USB cable into the phone, holding the back button put the battery in, should go straight to flash mode, just hold up, it should flash back stock rom.

Proceed the usual root steps etc after it's finished.

Hi guys,

How can I mount my network shares from my synology NAS with my P7510 (stock)

Cifsmanager always gives me an error "no such device"

Thx

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mabalito:
You really need to post in the right section, this is NOT development related.

That said, I'm not gonna be a **** and not point you in the right direction. :-)

First, you need a kernel that supports CIFS. Pershoots kernel does this through a loadable kernel module. To flash his kernel, you need ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM) installed on your device. Search through this development section to find the best way to get this on your device, a good start is to look in the sticky thread. Once you got CWM, download and flash Pershoots kernel. Read very carefully on his website which kernel is the right one for you. You also need to download the module package. Extract it and inside you'll find (amongst other files) cifs.ko, you need to put this file on your device and point cifsmanager to it.

If you've already done all of this, make sure you're using the right IP-address and share name in cifsmanager.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belisarith:
Hi there,

I don't want to bother you all, so please forgive me, if this question is already answered. I am trying to get cifs.ko to work too. As you mentioned one needs an appropriate kernel. You mentioned pershoots. But I would like to cite from the Developers section (very first thread, first post):

"I will advice that you hold off on the kernels if you can as every stable kernel will eventually get cooked into a ROM unless of course you want to help test them or be on the bleeding edge ."

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1171089

So my question is, are there any custom roms which already contain pershoots kernel?

I am trying "GALAXY TASK 6.3" at the moment. But I can't get cifsmanager to work properly. I already installed a cifs.ko to my system. So I guess, this rom does not support cifs.ko installing from the start.

I also found the bonsai rom, but I am a little reluctant to try it because

- some people are reporting strange hardware issues (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1155539&highlight=bonsai)

- and they have some kind of shop on their weppage (ok, the price is 0$, so the first points stops me from trying).

So to wrap things up again:

1. Are there any custom roms (besides bonsai) also working with pershoots kernel or any other kernel which supports cifs.ko?

2. If not: Can I just install pershoots kernel and put Galaxy Task 6.3 on top of it?

Appreciate every of your answers,

Best regards,

Bel.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belisarith:
*UPDATE*

Just for your information:

I got my cifs.ko from this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1338567&highlight=cifs.ko

Tried "GALAXY TASK 6.3" and "Overcome" Roms.

Also tried it with the terminal emulator.

But when I do insmod /pathofcifsko/cifs.ko i get the following message:

"insmod: init_module '/mnt/sdcard/cifs.ko' failed (exec format error)"

Therefore, my uneducated guess is, that it is a kernel problem, not one of the cifsmanager. Again the question stands: Do I have to install a kernel like the one pershoot's or are the suitable roms for this task.

Mounting network drives would be a big advantage for me. First of all, I could use my gallery app to show all my pictures and would not have a dlna server, which is quite of tiresome. For movies and music it is ok, but for pictures I have not found a satisfying app which supports touch gestures to go move from one picture to another with a dlna or upnp setup. On my phone cyanogenmod 7.1 is workings, which has cifs.ko already integrated. And I can say it is great to use the gallery app to show all the pictures stored on the network drive. Would even be greater to use my tab for this task. That's what it's for, right?

And I don't know if it's just imagination but mounting the network drive to the phone also improves the speed of switching between pictures compared to dlna or upnp servers. Maybe because the intermediate step of the server is omitted.

Best regards again,

Really love this great forum,

Bel.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belisarith:
Ok,

I have to correct myself. Tried Tasks Rom today and installed a cifs.ko and now everything is working.

Perfect.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azelter:
I also managed to get cifs working using the instructions in the post you referred to. I had the same objective as you: to be able to use the native gallery and music apps to view/play media on my network shared file systems. Having got cifs working, however, I find that the music and gallery apps do not find my media. I have tried mounting my whole media drive in /mnt/cifs/data under which I have directories music, movies, piks etc. I also tried mounting under /sdcard/data and then I tried mounting under /sdcard/Music (still with subdirectories music, movies, piks inside that). In no cases am I able to use the music/gallery app to view the files. The file manager sees all the media fine, so I know the filesystem is mounted correctly. I am assuming the problem is that the music and gallery apps want their media in the right folders and not in subfolders in order to be scanned. I am unable to make symlinks (with ln -s) as the /sdcard/Music (etc.) directories are on a FAT system (e.g. the sdcard). Does anyone have any ideas how I can get these apps to find my media, now I am able to mount them anywhere on my tab's filesystem? Thanks!

I am looking for a full body skin for my bionic. A case will not work since I will be using the lapdock.

I have checked these sites with no luck.

phantom skinz

skinit

ghost armor

I know skinomi has one but it does not look like it wraps around the sides of the phone. Has anyone used this brand before with any luck?

http://www.skinomi.com/motorola-droid-bionic-carbon-fiber-skin-protector.html
[Motorola Droid Bionic] JimmyHACK:
i LOVE skinomi, use them for all my screen protectors (Best screen protectors FACT haha). As far as skins, they offer great value for getting the back skin combo.

You are correct though, it will not cover the sides though. I have the carbon fiber on the back of my iPad2, it is nice because it is textured..

I think you are better off waiting for skinit for a wrapping skin honestly, it should be any day now they add it

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Diocat:
I just got this skin today and it does wrap the entire phone for the most part. there are very few small parts of the battery door that are exposed after the installation but other than that its coverage is pretty full.

I didn't do a perfect job on it but I got it to a point that I thought it was close enough and stopped playing with it and called it a day.

I am new so I could not leave the link up in your quote, but this is the exact skin that you linked to in your original post.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kenmills78:
Who is the maker of this skin? This looks great
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Diocat:
It's the Skinomi black carbon fiber skin for the Bionic that the you linked to in the first post. I'm just so new that I couldn't leave the link in the quote.

I bought it off Amazon though (it's still sold by Skinomi) but it's only $18.95 there.

As I can't post links yet, you can just go to amazon and search for "skinomi black carbon bionic" (without the quotes). Only one complete match result should come up in the results and that's the one I bought.

Zagg Skins

I am sold on Zagg Skins. Great screen protectors that you install with fine liquid spray and soft squeegee in order to place screen protector exactly where you want it. I have even peeled it off and ran warm water over it six months later and reinstalled it.

They also have there own selection of skins but if you want a custom skin you can use their software to upoad graphics and resize, use transparency, rotate etc.

I beleive their warranty is 90 days, full replacement.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jumphour:
Wow, I really like that one. I looked at your pictures, and then went right to Amazon to order it!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Diocat:
Just an FYI, this is how the skin comes in the package so you can see that it comes with the pieces to cover the edges as well.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rootuser3.0:
Anyone try this with extended battery cover?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] PerCompLLC:
My question as well...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Diocat:
The skin itself is custom cut for the regular battery cover. It is not cut for the bigger battery so when you try to install it it's a little small at the "battery bump, and all of the sides and bottom of the battery cover. However, if you are patient, you can work it with some heat and stretch it to the appropriate size.

I did this as a guinea pig as I had an extra skin. I was hoping the difference would only be about as drastic as Droid X2's extended vs standard battery cover at most when I bought the skins blind, but I was wrong.

With that said, I have noted I am not the best at putting these things on. If you have a lot of patience you can probably do a better job than I did if you need to use a standard Skinomi skin on an extended battery cover. This install for the back took me about 45 minutes working at it slowly so it would fit as well as it could.

So it's your judgement call. My install is not the best but it proves that it is possible to make the skin fit the extended battery cover if you are willing to work at it for a while. If not, you can wait for someone to make a skin specially designed for the extended battery cover.

Good luck for those of you who are willing to give it a shot, just be patient and leave your frustrations at the door.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TauntingBull:
Dude... awesome job!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GBH2:

Incidentally, Optishieldz is offering a Carbon Fiber skin designed for the Extended battery cover. It is only $14.95 however it does not cover the sides of the phone, just the back battery cover.

Hi,

using MIUI rom right now, and I noticed that copying data from PC to phone is slow as hell (200KiB/s). It was OK while using the stock HTC rom. However when I go to the recovery and mount sdcard, transfer speed is relatively good (4MiB/s-10MiB/s). Does anybody know if it is a ROM related problem, because nobody from MIUI has posted similar issue.

Thanks for any tip or advice.
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
What is the sd card cache size on miui? Stock htc rom it was limited to a poxy 128k! I use this app to bump it to 2048k.....

http://market.android.com/details?id=com.sdincrease.it

See if that helps.
[HTC Desire S] MarlX:
Hey man, is that ok to use? I mean does not destroy the sd?
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Most custom roms have had this tweak as standard for a while, and I've not heard of any issues with cooked SD cards. My class 6 SD card can be written to at 6MB/sec, so I shouldn't expect a cache of 2MB to push it too far. I've had the same 16GB card for 2 years on custom roms with this fix. No problems here.

I'd say make sure you don't have the cache any larger than your SD card class. For example, if you have a generic class 2 card, I'd perhaps only raise the cache to 1024k. That's still 8 times better than stock!

Use an app called "SD Tools" on the marketplace to run a 'before' and 'after' speed test.
[HTC Desire S] throbarik:
No, it doesn't help. It's still the same.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'm afraid that I can't remember where I've read this, but I believe that I've previously read somewhere in the forum that this is kernel related.

So possibly try stock kernel and try again.
