I installed CM Nightly #200 today & after installing it the SIM card doesn't work. Removed & put it back still doesn't work. Went back to #179 & still doesn't work. Please help!!!
[Blade General] picovidago:
I have the same problem, I installed the 201 and without SIM
[Blade General] Dragokazov:
200, 199 same problem - NO SIGNAL

and totally laggy, slow... both
[Blade General] Jackal331:
You can't use CM 179+. ZTE libraries are missing from the current builds. For the time being, the last usable Nightly is 179.
[Blade General] bx19:
What's the status now. Did anyone try the latest ones.
[Blade General] Jackal331:
Yes, since 206 (or 205 dont rememeber) you can use it again, I suggest you wait until 207 is out - it will have updated kernel.
[Blade General] bx19:
Presently on #209. No issues so far.

And even it isn't freezing at higher CPU frequencies. Very nice.

How can we check awake time?

Normally you go settings/about phone/status and its below up time.

I ask because looking at battery stats shows a solid blue line for awake overnight, but had my phone on airplane with no signal.
[Acer Iconia A500] shad0wboss:
Some questions with my background ofcourse. I've just started doing International baccalaureate and i'm already not so much organised and my papers are laying around all over the place so i was thinking of buying this tablet...Of course i have some experience with android and its apps but i was more concerned about the hardware than software.

I have two options, either to get normal dual core laptop worth 400-500$ OR get acer iconia which would be sort of an advantage over laptop since the laptop doesn't have touch screen. So here comes my questions:

1. How is this tablet in note taking? Decent apps in the market which would let me take notes for the whole semister? (approximately 2 years course)

2. Is docking station same for ipad and all other tablets?

3. Some additional commets would really really help a lot !

Since i'm in the middle of the course already...i would love to have as many comments as possible so that i can make a decision on buying this.

Thanks a lot in advance !
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
for me its great you can save everything to Google documents or something similar or even on a USB thumb drive.for lotsnof typing you prob want a keyboard USB or maybe even a keyboard case.I have a HP dm1 11.6 inch notebook as well as this tab.I nolonger pack the notebook around.

Very versatile tablet having full USB is a plus over other tablets.
[Acer Iconia A500] proxonic:
for quick hand notes - you should try Handrite from the market.

For now is the best of those what i tried. It is not the prettiest one but the fastest and easiest to use.
[Acer Iconia A500] shad0wboss:
if i was to have a choice between windows 7 operated tablet and this one...which one would you guys have suggested me because i can't decide whether to take an android tab or usual windows 7 operated device...for light gaming + mostly note taking...
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
Not quite sure which games you'll be playing, but the experience will be no where near Win7 with a tablet.

If gaming is a priority, find yourself a good touch screen laptop that converts into a tablet, and runs Win7. I love my HP touchsmart laptop/tablet, but don't game so it stays turned off most of the time in favor of my tablet. The touchsmart has incredible handwriting recognition built into Win7, and really is a dream to use.

With the Iconia you get a much lighter platform with a smaller footprint that is easier to tote around campus.

Weigh your priorities, and make your decision based on those priorities.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cnewsgrp:
Objective:A consolidated post listing multiple ways to stream videos from desktop to SGT 10.1. Contains answers to 4 questions

1) Best DLNA App?

2) Best Video Player that can play files over the network or one AllShare or DLNA app can use?

3) How to encode files to view them over SGT?

4) DLNA Server serving video files from desktop

Solution1 (cnewsgrp)

3) This thread says that SGT with 3.1 can play high profile natively. The encoding instructions are great

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1060825

4) I use Tversity and it works well. Any other suggestions are welcome.

Solution2: paua__

1) :get UPnPlay, which you use to browse the videos you want to stream

2) paua__ : DICE Player is (AFAIK) the only mediaplayer which utilizes Hardware Acceleration to process those heavy HD files. It eats .mkv for breakfast.

Solution3: oreo

1) 2) 4) VLC Direct.

Solution4: jastop

My goal is the opposite of cluttering XDA with another video thread. I will take time to compose good information in my first post. for that to succeed you experts must provide me good usable information in replies .

Solution4: BarryH_GEG: Plex

1) DLNA App: Plex for Android, AllShare

3) How to encode files to view them over SGT?DVDFab, CoreAVC

4) DLNA Server: Plex Media Server
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] paua__:
First off, get UPnPlay, which you use to browse the videos you want to stream.

Then BUY the DICE Player, which then will play the file tou select with UPnPlay.

DICE Player is (AFAIK) the only mediaplayer which utilizes Hardware Acceleration to process those heavy HD files. It eats .mkv for breakfast.

I assume you have already activated file sharing on your computer for your media files?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cnewsgrp:
Thanks. Comments added to first post. I will test this in about a week after I get my SGT.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Matrix_19:
After using tversity, now I use ps3 media server to share everything on my xbox360 ( for watching movies on the TV ) and on my GT10.1. You don't need to build a library and it can handle mkv ( It was not possible with Tversity in the past, I don't know now. ?)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] oreo:
I use an alternate method, VLC Direct. it streams everything from your PC via VLC's built in web interface, and you can browse through all your files in your computer all with just 1 app. As an added bonus, it can REVERSE stream FROM my TAB to the PC (which is hooked up to my HDTV), I find this very useful when I want to show something quick on my big screen to my guests (like photos and vidoes that i JUST took). and you can fine tune the stream quality with settings in the app. oh and there's also virtually no limit on the number of formats/codecs it can handle, if your VLC player on the PC can play it, everything can be streamed to the Tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jastop:
Works in the house and on the road

Still tweaking this setup, but it works well for the SGT, Xoom, HTC phones (and the i*'s also)

Windows Media Center 7 Host

2 WD TB hard drives

Ceton InfiniTv 4 channel digital cable card tuner

Verizon FIOS (all shows set to copy freely!)

Remote Potato (Provides Windows Media Center Interface on Mobile and Desktops)

MCBUDDY (Beta 18) - Transcodes recorded shows to smaller file, more mobile friendly format

ES File Explorer - Can browse the Media Center hard disk wireless, and launch recorded TV, Movies and home videos in the player of choice. Also can use to copy a video to the device for offline watching

Before Google acquired SageTV I was looking at using it as the media center component, but for now it seems to be lost in acquisition limbo. The advantage it had was it didn't record in Microsoft's WMV format, it maintained the native MPEG2 encoding used by FIOS. Transcoding was much easier, and mostly unnecessary.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] flame10:
I use qloud media. If you beef up the bandwidth settings, it gives you good viewing experience. You have to run a separate server app on your desktop. Also both the client and the srvr versions are under constant development. I used to use air video on my ipod touch, and always felt tailored app just for the device always gives the perfect experience.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigsapz:
I've been plagued with reboots. Every time I use any app for a long period of time over 3g, the phone heats up and reboots. I've tried everything. I've read this is somewhat common.

My question is has anyone having this issue tried flashing the rUU to fix it? Any success? I don't want to waste my time un rooting and rooting again if it doesn't fix the problem.

Thanks!

Bump...anyone?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimSnoopOS:
You mention "a long period of time", how extended is your use? The Inc is known to reboot due to overheating as the device is not the most ventilated product available. Using the RUU will likely be useless because you mention this overheating is with any internet app then the behavior will continue. The following are manners that may result in overheating:

1) excessive/constant 3g use (for example using Navigation and keeping the phone in direct sunlight)

2) using internet heavy apps in low signal areas (i.e. having 1-2 bars and using 3G will run your phone hot in a matter of moments with low signal.)

3) Keeping your phone in sunny areas or improper ventilation during use

If the overheating occurs with genuinely coded apps like Maps/Navigation, dolphin browser, ESPN, etc. then you need to curb your 3G usage and get on available wifi. If this is on various roms, the only constant is your time on 3G.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigsapz:
Thank you!! This is exactly what I needed. It happens when I have crap signal and use navigation or when I'm listening to music at the pool.

Sent from my 2.3.5 Incredible Obsession
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimSnoopOS:
Not a problem, really the thanks goes to HTC :rolleyes: haha also if you notice your battery heating up too quickly even while ventilated then maybe upgrading the battery will ease that a bit.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
I can vouch for that. I went to using the 3500 mAh battery and the problems pretty much went away. Cases don't help the cause at all; a fact that led me to ditching mine entirely.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amit.shah:
Even, my phone heats up and reboots while using over 3G. Also battery gets heated while using navigation, playing games etc. I’m on Stock Gingerbread ROM, with S-Off, rooted and on gingertiny Kernel. I tried using the phone after swapping battery with OEM battery of a fellow Dinc user and also 3500 mah battery but the problem still persists. I’m located in India and using the phone on Reliance Network. What could be the cause of this? Kindly help me with some solution..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hassaan123:
Hello, my galaxy S is running on generic imei. Currently i am on darkyrom

1. I have efs folder backup,everytime i boot my phone i have to copy that backuped efs folder to the phones folder, and when i do this i get network signals. Once i reboot the phone i have to do all that again. Any solution to get away with doing it everytime?

2. If i get a efs folder of a working imei phone,can i use that to fix mine imei?

3. While flashing few roms, i get this error in cwm

Assert failed 'is_mounted' (efs) .

Why is that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
if you try to flash another NV_data on your SGS you will end up with either No IMEI number or The generic one 004999 bla bla

To get your original back you need to restore the contents of the backed up efs to the efs on the phone.

If that fails, you will need to flash back to an older firmware, froyo worked for me, Some people say eclair. But try and see for yourself.

I have tried to change the IMEI many many times, it just resulted in the generic one. I cant find any help regarding it as it is illegal and no one will comment. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hassaan123:
I did try all the methods but failed. Now question is that does having generic imei affect while installing roms? And why do i need to copy paste the efs folder everytime i boot the device :-\
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Oh no you shouldnt need to do this on every boot, something is wrong there. Maybe the backup efs is also corrupt.

The generic IMEI can cause apps to not work properly, Market apps to not download, and signal / call / sms issues.

I have generic IMEI on one of my SGS's and its been fine for weeks.

Delete the current nv_data.bin / nv_data.bin.md5 / nv_data.bak and then reboot.
[HTC Desire S] nipun1110:
How much is it necessary to flash the latest kernel? I'm using Desire S n already tried a few ROMs...but never flashed any kernel...
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Ask cook?

I'd suggest that you follow the advice given by the ROM's cook, each ROM is different, advice is usually found in the first post of each ROM thread.
[HTC Desire S] blindndumb:
The ROM Runs over the Kernel and interacts for all your work to be done.

For perfect compatiblity and better experience , You need to update/Flash a Kernel.
[HTC Desire S] sagarda7:
According to my knowledge, Kernel provides other extra features.

-> I have used Tiamat kernel in MIUI, got good speaker volume, increased sound quality

-> Using Unity ROM in sense based ROM provides 2 way call recording feature

And I think it is used for improving overall performance of phone and get rid from some issues in custom ROMS.
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
It gives you extra features over stock kernel such as extra & improved CPU governors, CPU clocks for over and underclocking, changing voltage etc.
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
A different kernel will have an effect on Battery life, camera performance, audio performance, cpu performance, wi-fi performance... Think of them like drivers.

Devs can take the stock kernel, and tweak it to improve performance in these areas or to offer you additional options like over-clocking.

While most Sense ROMs will run just fine on a stock Sense kernel, AOSP ROMs will usually require a custom one to run properly. If a ROM requires a certain kernel other than stock to function, it’ll usually be mentioned in the ROM thread or included in the ROM .zip itself. Read carefully. Also use the search function on a particular ROM thread. Search for ‘kernel’ or ‘best kernel’ and quickly get an idea of what people are using and having the best success with.

Always take a backup before changing a kernel in case you get stuck booting up. Also if it does hang on boot, DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY. Take the battery cover off, and get ready by the battery hinge. Hold down Vol+ and Vol- and power button. When the screen goes black THEN pull the battery, and do not re-insert for at least 10 seconds. Some of these phones are prone to frying their eMMC chip if you do a live battery pull. I can’t guarantee if you follow the above it wont happen anyway, it’s just what has worked for me so far when I’ve been stuck on boot. Probably part technique and part luck! :)

Below is an over-view of the android OS to give you an idea of how it’s put together.
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Mostly is like this.

AOSP based roms have one specific kernel. (tiamat by example)

Sense based ones have another (Unity by example)

If you flash a rom it already come with kernel. So you sure changed it a lot of times if you flashed roms.

The diference if you install a specific rom is for features. Most of them make better use ob battery and allow overclock

hello superkid,

nice that i got u here. i couldn't write u in yr thread as it still showing i'm a new user.... anyway listen i want u to know that i'm a big fan of yr work like many other else.. MIUI is the most beautiful ROM available i see.. but i have a few complains or suggestions,whatever you say...

1. Application drawer: please include an app drawer as i see already a MIUI ROM available in xda with app drawer. But ,if u do that, please make it as 3x3, not as 4x4 or 5x5 cause it reduces the real beauty of the MIUI icons plus please try to include the icon shadows....

2. Messaging application: well i'm using desire s n in HTC, sms application automatically shows all sms from both phone memory n sim memory, but in MIUI i see that sim messages not showing like that. to see sim messages i have to go into settings>manage sim messages.. but even from there, there is no option to import them into yr phone memory... can u solve this?

3. i had also one or two issues with the latest 1.9.16 version ,for what i returned back to 1.9.9, though right now i can't recall lol

4. HTC sense: lastly, is there really no way to add some features of HTC sense to it as I'm seeing a developer published recently a HTC sense ROM claiming to be based on MIUI ROM, but mostly it's a sense ROM than MIUI.

Well man again i'm saiong I'm a big fan, so don't get mad at me. I just want MIUI to be the best without any lagging... Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I've owed an x10 and SGS-II.

Windows 8 ARM hasn't been released as of now but is someone planning to port it to SGS-II?

The reason I ask is because it looks very nice & would love to see something different on SGS-II

This is just a discussion any constructive comments are welcome.
[Galaxy S II General] AllGamer:
as a pure development project it might be fun to do such

but as a daily driver OS, Win8 is definitely a no go
[Galaxy S II General] onbacardi:
maybe will see win8 in our sgs III with 2ghz quad core
[Galaxy S II General] AllGamer:
i agree

as Win8 is basically = Win7 + Windows Mobile 7 Launcher + ARM CPU support

so that is basicaly a super beefup version of Win7, which translates into very heavy hardware requirement for it to run properly

basically you need a laptop the size of a phone, for it to run
[Galaxy S II General] MaBlo:
Haven't people been able to "run" it with ancient Pentiums and 128 MB ram?
[Galaxy S II General] Raudi1:
I've read that it has lower requirements. There are also some other changes(some of them also improvements like reduced boot time)
[Galaxy S II General] Neo.:
I don't think so mate. The requirements for Windows 8 ARM is pretty low. Microsoft announced that it will run very smooth on tablets (they did a demo as well) and it requires pretty low resources (since windows 8 itself uses a Very low ram).

People at xperia x10 are looking forward to port it so I thought why not?

SGS-III? lol. I'd dream about it.

[Galaxy S II General] knightnz:
Win8 ARM hardware drivers for the SGS2-specific hardware would need to be written from scratch, so don't hold your breath.
[Galaxy S II General] euphoria47:
Don't make the mistake of comparing mobile to desktop. MHZ/GHZ processor speeds don't mean jack when comparing between CPU/GPU architecture types.

Just because some spec somewhere says it's designed to be able to run on ARM processors and some or our phones use ARM processors, doesn't mean we are go for launch. We may not be comparing apples with oranges here, but we certainly are comparing tangerines with oranges. Some of these chips can be much bigger and power-hungrier than anything we see in the SGS2
[Galaxy S II General] liuwenaz:
kal-el can totally Handel it perfectly.
[Galaxy S II General] xEraseRx:
I guess they will eventually merge WP7 and W8 for ARM, same thing that is about to happen to Android.

For now I am quite happy with Android on my phone, and if the Win32 pogramms wont work on a W8 tablet I see no point in getting one either. Android is growing like crazy (software and hardware), so I can not see a reason to abandon this platform (except maybe for MeeGo, incredible what the people did with the n900).

Although Tablet+VLC would make a hell of a mediaplayer....

[Galaxy S II General] loop4444:
