Hey fellas i was on sammy's open source site yesterday and nothing was there for the SGH-T989 and today there is an SGH-T989 open source.zip file up on the site just in case this helps in any way with getting things going with rooting this bad mutha!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Entropy512:
Was this dump made using "adb pull"? If so, it's next to worthless for the purposes of building a prerooted system image - no permissions, no symlinks.

Someone needs to dump system using tar. I have attached a binary of busybox (which includes tar) compiled using the instructions given at http://arighi.blogspot.com/2011/08/install-busybox-from-source-on-samsung.html

Extract it from the zip and install it as follows, I am assuming that whoever does the dump is comfortable with ADB:

adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/

Then start an adb shell or an Android Terminal Emulator session, and within it:

cd /system
/data/local/tmp/busybox tar czvf /sdcard/system_dump_t989.tar.gz *

Then grab /sdcard/system_dump_t989.tar.gz and upload it here.

To avoid having 308403434 different people do this, I suggest you guys name a volunteer

IMPORTANT: If the attempt to tar up /system above gives any errors about access denial or permissions, post the name of every file that was a problem.

/system itself? That's VERY odd.

Guys,

Weird one here. Was running VillainROM 3.0, noticed that adding a new contact resulted in "Sorry! The process android.process.acore stopped unexpectedly".

Cleared contacts cache data, turned off facebook/twitter/linkedinsync, deleted database directory etc and no change.

Eventually wiped and reflashed (3 hours to get back to usable!) and initially no problem - now it does the same again. Does my head in.

Anyone any suggestions?

Search xda for DSP manager. Its an equalizer system. Its just as good as beats. Beats is essentially the same as Dolby SRS (and, personally, I think its gimmicky and cheap of HTC) . That said, I'm sure beats is gonna be using lib files and so on, and doubtful it'll work with LG. There are roms on the evo forum (my 'home's forum), with beats included, and it seems no different than DSP manager.

Jelive has a thread supporting DSP manager over in the evo themes and apps subforum, and possibly in other sections of xda.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] babymatteo:
+1. Although i've tried DSP Manager with all the other ROMS, and its seems that it is only really 100% functional with CM7.

Also the MIUI Music app also has a very nice Equalizer to amplify the sound...which works and sounds just like DSP imo.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Update 2 - workaround wasn't as successful as you can imagine, eventually the lack of that pin connected didn't prevent wrong readings and also plugging in the charger loks like it's charging but the current doesn't go positive in current widget and the percentages continue downward.

Update

The workaround to cut off the center contact works.

It must provide battery type info but by cutting it off android cnt assume anything and goes on its own hunch. This is great, it's working great.

If I charge and clear battery stats info and let it learn over a couple of days the percentages should get better.

It's draining so slow to. A 30 minute call only cost 5% lol.

Hi Guys, There is an extended battery type that is far far cheaper than the HTC official extended battery but does exactly the same thing, problem is no amount of calibration will get past the issue that the kernel will go through 1230mah of discharge and shutdown the phone at 0% in reality there's still around 65% battery left.

Could i please request a kernel compilation (preferebly taken from Heiros 1.7.4 GIT) that targets a change in the following...

ds2746_param_config.h", the table i am interested in modifying is the FL_25, one that defines the full battery capacity, Instead of 1230 im after 2400

Alternatively maybe a custom module that i add to 01_modules that ovverides it ?

2ndAlternatively disable androids auto shutdown at 0%... the physical battery voltage is more than enough indication to know when to charge the battery, at 3.55 volts - plug it in :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
It could be possible to trick the battery percentage to get different values via a root app, or maybe a command via terminal emulator?

Here is a previus time i have requested this.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] OCedHrt:
My regular battery goes down to 3.3v just fine. Is the kernel basing the percentage on mAh? I ask because my old battery calibrates to about 600mAh so I got a new replacement that calibrates to 1210mAh or so (close enough) yet the new battery doesn't seem to be lasting any longer than the old one.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
I am not totally sure, but the android system/kernel use all readings for the batterystats file.

The main issue is any capacity above 1230mah doesnt get used for some reason and my research lead me to belive that in the kernel wich our devs here compile have a code commit that hard codes the baseline for capacity in our standard battery and if you use the official HTC extended battery it detects that and uses the alternative code made by Arne.

But for these unoficial ones, it can be a real Pain... we need an alternative kernel that treats the "standard" battery as a 2400mah battery to get the real use out of it. And seriusly ? where does HTC come off charging over $100AUD for an extended battery ? they are worth no more than $10 to $20 worth in reality.

I have FAITH that an awesome Kernel DEV here in this forum will help !

I think the best outcome is to just completely freeze trick or ignore the percentage meter and override any battery warnings at %15 and not shutdown the phone at 0%, since that would be compatible with all kernels and most roms.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Also just experimented with an idea to do with the battery contacts.

The battery contacts are as follows

|| | ||

I covered over the middle single contact with a tiny peice of sticky note paper so it doesnt connect with the battery.

The phone turned on and booted fine, Android still shows battery voltage, Discharge and Charge Current and percentage, as if that middle contact serves NO purpose :confused:

Il leave it like this and see how it goes...

infact I have got a battery which has 2700mAh

I use tytung's R12 kernel the % display is not correct

so I download the kernel source code and modify the ds2746_param_config.h

then compile it . now it works correctly ,

after the cell phone shutdown ,I pull out the battery and its voltage is 3.4V

in kernel config the shutdown value is lower than 3.42V.

Hrm- well sorry to state the obvious - but you have Google Voice installed on your phone?

1. Open Google Voice.

5. Press sync and notifications.

6. Press Receive text messages.

7. Press Also via the messaging app.

2. Go to options (upper right corner - the little cog).

3. Choose voice settings.

4. Under the Phones tab (the first tab) scroll down to the bottom and check to see that "Recive text messages on this phone" is selected. If it is- cool. If it is not - then select it.

I've had this optimus for 2 weeks with the stock 2.2.2; the system didn't feel as an upgrade from my X10. Once I heard Cyanogen 7.1 stable for the x2 was out I decided it was time to upgrade.

I have installed MIUI on a liquid and such so I have an idea of the process. Following guidelines on wiki cyano; I rooted my phone then installed ROM manager premium. when running the clock work patch i get an error message "An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands" I have run the "fix permission issues" without success. On top of that once the error message is cleared the phone reboots into a loop and the only way out is through Android recovery (3e) pwrbt + vol- for 5 sec

currently clockwork 5 is out for some phones but likely wont be out for the x2 for a while.

It's a problem with Super User and not with file permissions. You could try to directly install Clockworkmod from your computer using this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1098745

You connect your phone, checking first that debug USB mode is enabled and then you run the bat file (or sh if you are Linux) from console (cmd in Windows). It has psneuter exploit and ADB drivers included so could work without ROM Manager.

Root your phone again, check Super User app version (version 3 at the moment with binary version 3.0) in the settings menu of the app. Then you can also try to manually authorize ROM Manager in Super User app.
