hmmmmmmmm

it is like "Leave me live today & kill me tomorrow"

Do you think bada 2.0 will get a jailbreak after that ?!

Just wait until 3.0 an hack it as you want

Also big question here Will Wave I/II get that update ?!

Also looks a similar story (Nokia, Symbian S^3)

I hope bada will be better than Symbian and won't die after that

Best Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] lasentenza:

I dont really understand what did samsung mean by making it open source!! There are too possibility

1) they will open the OS only to other manufacturer.

2)including first option, they will also open up API a little bit more so a developer can easily access system services for better integration off apps. for example Like accessing notification bar from your app.

I am looking forward for the second option.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] larioteo:
No bada will be open source ;)

The SDK and the API you can download from opensource.samsung.com its no secret that the interfaces to bada are open, only the system is missing

but why get access to the notification bar? it is a main os component open everything means hack or get malware for everything.

I dont think android is open over api enough only a root can give you to all access but some users dont want this. To watch videos to surf the net or to write sms/email nobody needs root access, so this i am an opponent of.

We saw the possibilities of rooted iphones and android phones so i am scared of using a system that could have so much viruses like windows, this is not the future.

OS Modifications on an opensource os will be custom roms i hope so, no the stock rom. otherwize i would search an alternative cause a hackable system i dont want.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] badelemental:

Looks like these are only rumors. BADA is not going to be open source.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
I know ill probably get yelled at but ive been looking through forums and couldnt find any specific instructions.

I know how to use adb cwm etc but im new to nvflash and theres not alot on it online or as much as adb or cwm.

I have downloaded nvflash untarred it etc and about to do the same with ubuntu rootfs ubuntu flash kit and prime 1.9

now the instructions in the ubuntu thread say to put prime in images? where?

Im on ubuntu 11.04 and even adb at the momment doesnt read the tf properly says insufficient permissions??? god knows what thats about

Pretty much it says i can only get dual boot using linux and im still learning linux and have never used nvflash

Any step by step answers on how to set up the tf on my ubuntu and how to use nvflash to get dual boot running would be great

Thanks in advance :)

---------- Post added at 09:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 PM ----------

ive also used fastboot what im asking is nvflash like fastboot or is it just a key to low level access can you run commands through nvflash etc etc

Just think there should be a general info thread on what does what how to use commands etc all in one thread call it noob if you want to im just saying would be much better than scattered sometimes contradicting info
[Droid X General] Jubakuba:
Ok, so I'm the same guy who had the torch/camera/camcorder problems a couple weeks ago on CM7.

I thought (for some reason) that a new nightly would fix my problems...so I've patiently waited and finally nightly 96 came out. Didn't fix it.

Unfortunately, I just SBF'ed and then checked my camera...which now doesn't work on stock either.

The thing that makes me think it ISN'T hardware related is that my torch doesn't work either.

Also, the camera application doesn't even attempt to take a picture (as it does on CM7) it simply blackscreens...and if I press the camera button (either physical or on-screen) it either locks up or does nothing but act like it took a picture. Nothing shows up in the gallery either.

Again, my torch/camera/camcorder worked FINE before. And I'm pretty careful with my phone...I haven't dropped it or anything like that.

HOWEVER, The camcorder seems to record sound...and a pitch black screen.

Odd.

So...

As a potential fix, I flashed the maderstcok340.zip after formatting system and wiping cache.

Still no camera/torch.

SBF'ed AGAIN...still no camera/torch.

Possible fixes from my prior thread that were never fully executed:

Init.mapphone_umts.rc <---is this file able to be swapped from phone to phone?

Or is it safe to post the file here for ya'll to verify that everything is how it should be?

Duplicate .lib files were also mentioned.

Where should I be looking for those?

I just downloaded "alogcat" from the market since my symptoms don't match up with the usual problems we have...

Here's what it spit out:

http://pastebin.com/SGLsneFv

In case it's needed...

I started alogcat.

Pressed the Hard Camera Button.

Tried to take a picture.

(Had to back out of camera app in order to switch to camcorder)

Toggled Light to *on*

Recorded a couple of seconds with the camcorder.

Edit:

After me and razorloves_DX from rootzwiki went on a spamming session of toubleshooting...we've decided this is definitely a hardware problem.

Feel free to ignore this thread, as I'll have to send my phone in to fix it =/

[Galaxy Spica General] LivArt:
If you have flashed too big bootlogo, then end. Trully bricked.

Samsung_saad: what did you do before brick spica?
[Galaxy Spica General] tarzantheapeman:
Unbrick!!

addictivetips.com/mobile/one-click-unbrick-for-samsung-phones-having-odin-guide/

When I originally rooted my phone, I used Odin... I haven't tried this particular method for unbricking, but apparently it works.

Hope that helps :)
[Galaxy Spica General] Hilmy:
I tried the one click unbrick method. Wasent working for me.

In the original post it says that it works with all devices using Odin 3. Is a while ago, but i think to remember i was using Odin 2.x the last times for flashing.

Eaven it dident work for me, might still be worth a try for you.
[Galaxy Spica General] Soenisti:
The button combination for download mode is "volume down + camera + power"

As long as you can get into that mode you're safe and the phone is not bricked!
[Defy General] ezantera:
How about that? How much sdcard consume actually?

Nexus S dont have it, there must be a reason for removing it.
[Defy General] tdlr:
SD cards require ca. 0.15 mA in "standby" or up to nearly 50mA while reading. Therefore, depending on the usage rate of your SD card, it may save power of course to not use one. Instead the data must be read from some other place like internal flash memory. As long as that consumes fewer power, it may be worth a try.
[Defy General] pprakash:
I had this peculiar experience. After reformating my SD CARD I gained 6 hrs of battery life approx now. Previous to the format it was 20 hrs max and now its around 26 hrs. May be the filesystem itself has something to do with power drain I think.
[Defy General] ezantera:
I think I will remove sdcard. My defy now has over 1GB free space and that is enough for everything :D
[Defy General] tdlr:
So how do you compress your 15gb music library into that single GB ? ;)
[Defy General] MrBelter:
ill keep my SD card in cheers, removing it cant use any more juice than the internal memory.
[Defy General] NtwoO:
My mp3 player, a cowom d2 has internal memory and an sd slot. On sd the play back is way shorter.
[Defy General] MrBelter:
On my Sansa Clip+ it makes sod all difference.
[Defy General] sg3707:
Don't use SD card, don't use 3g, keep display low, don't play games, finally sell that phone and be happy.

What would be the point in having it.
[Defy General] salingpusa:
What's the point of having a smart phone if you don't use its features. Besides wouldn't it consume more time and power if you turn off your device , insert sd card (by some event you need it), turn it on again. ??? Then again, its up to you.

Got a Headache? It's all in your Head.
[Defy General] nameite:
It does chow battery, thats why I keep most of my apps on the internal flash....and those apps you only open once in a while I leave on my sd, and movies, mp3s etc etc.

You wont need to remove the sd, just unmount it under storage, then it will not even be in standby and save some battery
[Defy General] NtwoO:
This argument is not valid in my opinion. Analysing what consumes battery to a more or lesser extent is irrespective of what you use. Once you identified the power hogs, you can alter your use, or accept the consequences for the ones you want to use. If you use a dedicated MP3 player for instance, I could imagine that the internal memory would be sufficient.

For me, 3G is avoided as much as possible. Using wifi instead ;) uses less battery.
[Defy General] ezantera:
Thanks man, i did not think of just unmount lol

I could not remove it, my navigation files must be on it... too bad because i dont have need for sdcard since i dont have lots of mp3s and pics. I have now more then 1gb of free space on phone...
[HTC Sensation] unixseb:
Hello world,

i replaced my nexus one with a sensation recently and i really missed the 3D gallery of my nexus (i also miss the trackball and multi color led :( ).

I've found a working version for the sensation, so here it is.

just install it as any other app.

hope you'll like it ;)
[HTC Sensation] TheNavdeepDahiya:

[HTC Sensation] unixseb:

Hi guys, i started some days ago in drawing a new theme for my personal Desire to make AOSP experience graphically better.

I originally thought to create the theme for oxygen, but now, i think that the porting on themes chooser will be very very simple.

The work is still in progress and i want to create the theme "live" with your comments and with your critics to give it a professional look to replace with dignity the AOSP theme!

The theme's name will be B-AOSP-E (better AOSP experience) and i will share it with you when completed.

PS, sorry from my bad english, i'm italian!

Day by day progression:

- 18/09/2011: Themed: Launcher, Camera, Deskclock.

- 19/09/2011: Themed: SystemUI, Optimized: Deskclock.

So... any comment or critic is appreciated!

you need a pen to activate small strings like in the left navigation bar in the "finder"-window ;)

Hi, guys, have you noticed that if the right side of the sliding mechanism is slightly nudged, the display lights up? Here is a video:

When answering, please share what phone and keyboard layout do you have.
[HTC 7 Pro] xtr3m3:
Same problem with me.. (link)
[HTC 7 Pro] fashion_m:
Oh, that's a relief, I thought I was the only one :)

Well, that's not a big problem, even if the phone is waked up, it's still locked and goes to sleep again in 3-4 seconds.
[HTC 7 Pro] hassanselim0:
This is weird!

Mine's display light up after I slide it past the bottom keyboard row, it can stay locked while I can clearly see the spacebar!

How can the same device act differently like that? mine is a 7 Pro (not an Arrive), and I can see from your video that yours is a 7 Pro too.
[HTC 7 Pro] fashion_m:
If I push the sliding mechanism evenly, with two fingers, mine also lights up after the first row of the keyboard, just like yours. But try to push only the right side...
[HTC 7 Pro] tiny17:
The screen is triggered based on a magnet I believe. So the amount that the screen must be moved to trigger the screen to come on isn't a precise thing.
[HTC 7 Pro] Xodium:
Doesn't happen on my Arrive.
[HTC 7 Pro] fashion_m:
Hey, folks, do your phones light up when you divide the two halves?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yc6zNYu-La8

Please write what phone do you have - HTC Arrive, HTC 7 Pro, QWERTY or QWERTZ kejboard.
[HTC 7 Pro] Jdixon85:
Mine doesn't light up if I nudge the right or left side. It also does not light up If split it in half like the above video.

It only lights up when I slide it over the first row of keys.
[HTC 7 Pro] MikeChannon:
This is correct.

I don't have the manual for that phone. (it's similar to the mechanism shown for the TyTn however www.mikechannon.net or see here to get the general idea http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2677085&postcount=3 ) HTC tightened their document security and it's almost impossible to get Service Manuals current devices these days.

However, as tiny17 commented, in HTC phones, the sliding keyboard activates "wake-up" by means of a small magnet which is glued onto the inside of the casing. As this moves past the magnet operated switch it wakes up the phone. You will see similar behaviour if you bring a magnet near certain parts of the case and in fact this is a way to locate where the magnet switch is located.

Also, using phone cases that have magnet clasps on them can also operate the switch and wake up the phone when sliding it in and out of the case/pouch.

So technically this is not a fault, but it can be annoying.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimloader:
Hello,

I have been the happy owner of a SGS2 for 3 months and the recent need of having an external USB (for the moment, Bluetooth will come later) external keyboard connected to the USB/OTG port. So I bought a keyboard, connected it, and it worked like a charm !... except for the layout which cannot be configured in something else than QWERTY.

So I started my search of a way to change the layout and I found several ways, one of which seems to work well : changing the .kcm.bin and .kl files in /system/usr/keychars and /system/usr/keylayout directories.

I rooted my phone, installed the android sdk and started to adb push and pull several files, and heres come my question : for an external usb keyboard, WHICH .kcm.bin and .kl files are to be modified in a french SGS2 ?

If it is possible, I would like to keep the qwerty.kcm.bin original file intact. I tried to modify a qwerty2.kcm.bin that was there, without success. Is there a way to add a layout, and tell the system to use it for any external USB keyboard ?

Thanks for your answers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimloader:
All right, now I'm desperate... I even changed the qwerty.kcm.bin file, and it still didn't work... In fact I changed every possible kcm file present in the keychars directory, along with its corresponding .kl file in the keylayout directory... no success. I'm really wondering which file can be modified or added to let an external keyboard have its layout changed...

Any idea ?

Hi, semi-noob android tweaker here...

I've been customizing my WFS by replacing all the HTC side of the Android software. I'd like to know what stock HTC crud I can remove without rendering it a paperweight.

Everything but the lockscreen has been replaced (I tried using one from the market but it reverted after a reboot).

Most of the major replacements are from the GO team selection, do they rely on the core HTC stuff to work?

I apologise in advance, I have already posted a similar question in the WFS forum, but it seems quite dead in there.....

EpDetect is an free accelerometer based mobile phone application that uses advanced signal processing to detect epileptic seizures. It runs on most mobile phones that support SMS messaging, movement detection and GPS position location.

EpDetect will monitor the movement of the person while the phone is in their pocket or worn on a belt. The software will differentiate the movements associated with epilepsy from normal movement.

When a seizure is detected it will warn the person that it is about to send an SMS message to a carer, in the case of a false alarm the person will be able to cancel the SMS alert. The SMS message contains time, GPS coordinates (if the phone has GPS) and a short message, allowing the carer to raise the alarm and take remedial action or call an ambulance. When the person recovers they press a button to cancel the alarm, which will initiate an end of emergency SMS message.

Available at Android Market & soc.io mall Market.

You can also visit official EpDetect site.
