Hi KrisInfinity,

you could change following values in init.rc file of ramdisk, to keep launcher in memory

change values of following two to keep launcher in memory

setprop ro.HOME_APP_ADJ to 0

setprop ro.HOME_APP_MEM to 0 or 1536

Sure, you can enable unlocking the device by pressing a key twice. As you would on sense android 1.6 pressing menu twice. Here's a thread that shows how http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=683902

[Q]

hi,i use CM7 latest rom,based on kalim,can i flash this rom without wipe or not?

and will this rom in future have all functions,i mean 100% working rom?

thanks!
[Click Android Development] KrisInfinity:
You have to wipe before flashing because CM7 is a gingerbread rom while this is a froyo sense rom. However I suggest you to make a backup before doing anything, and you can easily restore if you want to go back.

As for the future I can't make any promises, however the only thing not working is FM Radio, everything else works. I even remember BT file transfer to be working.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smackdownn:
which is better in both of these devices? Transformer (without keyboard) or Toshiba Thrive..I was ready to get the transformer but then i heard that b7 or b8 cant be rooted and i totally want to root my device and on the other hand Thrive can be rooted but its still on 3.1 officially..if i get thrive will i get good official support? and also i saw that Thrive dosent have any XDA support right now because i dont see any roms in development section of Thrive.The thickness and weight are ok for me and having full sized USB port is awesome but the only thing holding me back is the support for the device...

Please share your opinions :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
If it was me and the TF's dock was non existent, I'd take whichever was cheaper.

Pro for Thrive: full sized USB and SD card; TF needs a Dock for that.

Pro for TF: It's probably the best battery life you're going to get and has the awesome dock option.

Beyond that I don't see big differences in hardware, although I will admit, the review I just googled listed a linpack score slightly worse than my phone (0.05-0.10% of my TF), which makes me wonder what kind of damn lies are in there or if I just read the wrong MFLOPS on it lol. Until ICS I doubt you will get much out of ROM land to be worth the worry, so much as Root is preferable with how much these things cost!

Full Disclosure: given everything on the current market, I chose a 32GB TF and dock, a rootable one :-).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdfuogh:
If it was me, I'd wait a TF2... unless you have money to spare, or you're in mad need of a tablet. I mean, we're close to Thanksgiving and Christmas, which at the least might give you an even cheaper deal on one of those two choices so you might as well wait...

I chose a 16gb + dock. I like having a physical keyboard, and the battery life is extremely useful.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smackdownn:
the price difference between both is 40$ approx and will thrive get ICS sooner?

and want to ask 1 more thing...right now is there any app in android that can extract winrar multi part files?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
Despite what folks say around here (which sounds like more wishful thinking than evidence to me), I don't expect the TF101 to _ever_ get ICS, unless it is done via a custom ROM. Ditto for every tablet on the market today.

I expect the Transformer 2 to have ICS, ditto for future tablets. Why? Because with how fast such things go versus how fast equipment ages I doubt there is sufficient ROI to interest them in investing in our investments :-). But on the upside, I'll probably be running ICS on my TF101 a few months after ROMs go that way.

Thanks to all the guys posting in this forum.

I finally managed to:

- unlock bootloader with the hardware trick (without loosing DRM?)

- upgrade from stock FW 335 to 368

- unroot device

so far i can help anyone having troubles with it :-)

now i need to:

- install CM7.1 using rom manager, but the question is:

which is the Clockworkmod Recovery for the SK17? (it's not listed in the RM options).

Thanks for answering :-)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] berz:
the boot image is there in the download of the rom on freexperia thread , same process flashboot replace boot img , and then flash the cynogenmod via recovery simple.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
I wanted to see what recovery mode looks like, but i cant enter it. Do i have to replace boot.img first to even enter it?

I'm new. =)

edit: im rooted on latest stock
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
ok for reflashing boot.img w/ flash boot, but what is "recovery simple", can you try to explain how to do that? (sorry for the stupid question)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
he meant recovery mode. you can enter it by pressing volume down key during first 5 seconds of boot. you should wipe data and apply cm7 zip file there.

but i cant enter it. im wondering if i have to replace boot.img first :S
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] berz:
yes thats right , u need to replace boot image first.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
ok thanks.

people are reporting that menu LEDs are very bright. do you know if theres a way to reduce brightness or disable the light completely?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
for what i know this the vol down at boot should trigger the Clockworkmod Recovery, but as I cannot install it it's obvious that we cannot see it...

inside update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaMiniPro-SK17i-signed.zip there is a boot.img but don't know how to handle it... :-/

is it that the file that should be flashed using fastboot?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
yes, boot.img via fastboot.

the instructions are on the official CM thread. here's the post for Mini Pro. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16822404&postcount=4
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
so i must:

1: estract boot.img from update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaMiniPro-SK17i-signed.zip

2: flash via fastboot

3: put update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaMiniPro-SK17i-signed.zip on the sd card

4: trigger the recovery mode via vol down on boot

5: flash CM7.1?

right?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
i believe so.

there are some issues. LEDs under menu keys are super bright, and some people are reporting vibration and keyboard layout issues. keyboard layout can be solved (theres a thread for it) and vibration could be due to not wiping data before applying CM. keyboard layout could be due it as well.

so basically, LEDs is the only known issue right now.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaMiniPro-SK17i-signed.zip is 91Mb, is that correct? should I flash it over 4.0.A.2.368?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
yes, except my file is 89mb. is it 91 on sdcard or on your local harddrive?

edit: its 89.2 on my sdcard as well.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
91.384 Kb.. so 89 Mb...

boot.img (inside the zip file) is 4,27 MB (4.481.024 byte) dated 29.2.2008, right?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
indeed.

i got my file from CM's site. theres also a 110mb file on the official xda thread hosted on hotfile. im downloading it now to see if theres any difference
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
I can't find the link, can you share it?

btw, i got the Freexperia logo on boot but then it stucked...

how do I trigger recovery mode?

tnx
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
link is here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16822404&postcount=4

did you wipe data in recovery before applying zip file?

cant you enter recovery mode again with volume down key?

edit: files are the same, hotfile one just has extra apps. google apps and some SE ones.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
i didnt installed the zip yet.

and i didnt enter in recovery mode too...

shall i push voldown + on button at the same time to enter recovery?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
yes. i linked you the instructions on the official thread several posts ago
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
Got iT! thank you... +1 for you
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
i cant enter recovery :S

when exacly do you press vol down key, how many times, do you keep it presed? oh and, usb plugged in?

edit: got it working -.-;;
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
everything went fine except that it doesnt accept any pin code... any idea?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
you mean you cant get past the pin unlock screen?

it didnt even prompt me for pin. i did have pin check disabled on previous rom but i dont think that setting can carry over.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] giank30:
yes it doesnt go thru the pin screen...

it keeps asking me the pin again and again (it doesnt ask for puk after three mistakes).

the sim is working (i tried on my old X10 Mini Pro with Cyanogenmod 7.0)

i reverted to stock 386 fw and pin is working properly...

DUNNO :-(

@sulkie ..thanks for the info.. So, is you flash into CM7, the menu, lockscreen, icon will change? so it would not like now a sony ericsson phone?.. . and it is recommend to flash into cm7? it will brick your phone ? sorry for the stupid question..I am newbie for this android :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
If you are new to android and dont know why you might need root, then you dont need it and shouldnt be considering it.

Yes, all of that will change, although most of it can be changed by installing some apps on your official ROM. Biggest change for you will make a launcher and i highly reccommend installing one. It changes how your homescreen and app drawer looks. Launcher Pro and ADW are the best two. If you want a free version i'd reccommend launcher pro, and ADW EX for paid version. Installing a launcher will bring your android experience a lot closer to vanilla rom or CM.

For more advanced stuff you need to root official rom, or install CM (no rooting required), but before either of those you need unlocked bootloader . But there's time for that, enjoy your android for now.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] delmarz:
actually I rooted my phone now, cause i use vpn for free internet and it required a rooted phone, so now I am free to connect internet... ok thanks for the info bro, I keep studying/explore about more android :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sulkie:
well you are halfway there then =)

installing a cm now would be a cakewalk, but id advise you to wait a bit. there are 2 issues right now with CM. keyboard layout a bit scrambled and keys not backlit; and LEDs under menu/return keys are super bright. should be fixed soon so give CM a try then.

install titanium backup and backup user app and their data before that so you'd have an easy time getting back to official rom if you might not like CM. backups in some way are always reccommended though.

4. Hold SHIFT and right click on the background

of the folder

5. Select 'Open command window here'

6. Connect your phone in S1 Fastboot mode

(turn phone off, hold [volume up] button and

plug in USB Cable to the computer.) Make sure

that the blue LED is on after plugging-in!

7. Now windows ask you to locate the drivers.

Locate and install the drivers from download 2.

8. Enter

Code:

fastboot.exe -i 0x0 fce getvar version

in the command prompt from step 5, and verify

that you get a response back (for example

"0 .3") . This means your phone is connected

properly.

I installed Cyanogen today, and have been restoring various things using titanium backup. However, my long-press menu (i.e. search) is no longer working.

On the home screen, it just launches a keyboard (keystrokes do then activate search) and in apps like market a long press of the menu key does nothing. Very frustrating!

Does anyone know how to fix it?

I'll start.

Groupme: This has to be the worst app that has ever been designed for any platform. I understand that it's in preview but i've emailed their support atleast 15 times. Not even one reply. What the hell guys? You guys are owned by Microsoft (skype) for gods sake.

They recently released an update and it doesn't even include a mango update. It just adds live tiles, which don't work. Not even once.

Every time i open the app i get "Push notification ChannelOpenFailed error occurred. This channel does not exist but could not be opened. Try opening the channel again. (-2129589901) 0"

I've reinstalled the app 3 times. I've emailed their support, i've contacted them on twitter. They're just ignoring everything about windows phone. This is unacceptable for a company that is owned by Microsoft.

I know some people are going to say this is just an app and you can use the group feature in mango. No, i can't. This app uses data and it works with smart phones as well as dumb phones (via sms). The group chat feature in mango doesn't allow the other people to respond back and talk to each other. This is key for me. I have a group with some people and we need to be able to communicate with each other.

It's things like this that make me want to drop windows phone.

I love windows phone (you can check my post history) but i am really pissed off now. I'm tired of waiting for things to improve. Mango is excellent but it's 2011 and the platform itself doesn't mean anything. It's all about the 3rd party apps.

I mean, look at whatsapp for android and ios and then check it for windows phone. They say they need more time to develop a decent app. Mango beta has been out for months. What's talking so long? Skype? Words with friends? Where are these apps? Is it lack of motivation cause of the 1% market share?

I am seriously considering android ice cream sandwich if google can get their act together and make android as smooth and reliable as my htc windows phone.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alcoholic:
Sorry, but i never said i expected a perfect platform and i believe windows phone is still the best operating system for any phone. It's the 3rd party apps that are killing it for me.

Microsoft has literally tried to bribe people to develop for them but there just doesn't seem to any interest in developing quality apps.

The core OS can only take you so far. But for what it's worth, i think wp is better than ios and android. But android seems it's better overall.

If something doesn't work you can customize it and fix it yourself.

I used to put a new energy rom on my windows mobile every time nrg came out with an update, so i have no problems putting in the effort and time it takes to tweak an OS. Unfortunately this isn't the case for 3rd party apps. Which is why android seems like a better choice for me.
