[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirFork:
I've been running CM7 for quite awhile, playing a lot of music between the car and headphones. I switched to homebase and noticed an improvement in sound quality. After some reading I noticed the Atrix is equipped with a Wolfson audio chip. Is this because CM7 uses different audio drivers and, if so, is it even possible for developers to take advantage of this hardware?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turl1:
The drivers are the same. Check out DSPManager application on CM7, it can improve quality quite a bit :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sn0warmy:
I am following the steps of rooting to a "T". I successfully got CWM Recovery installed. However, when I go to backup & Restore in Recovery it will not allow me to create a backup because it "can't mount /sd card".

Since this phone has internal storage and not an SD card, is there any way for me to fix this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightnz:
There is a slot in the phone for a MicroSDCard, most versions of CWM do however default to the internal memory for that option though.

But not all versions, it's possible you're using one of the few that tries to mount the MicroSD as /sdcard.

Maybe try flashing the Siyah kernel via Odin, it's compatible with all(?) SGS2 firmwares as far as I'm aware. It has a different version of CWM built in.

You could use an adb shell to see what's going on but most folks don't seem to know what adb is any more.

Has anyone found a port from ics for face unlock

3VO 4Life
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
There is an app that has been out for months on the market. I'll look for the link. It looks like the one from ics

Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Never mind, it doesn't look like it, but here you go: https://market.android.com/details?id=visidon.AppLock

Same thing almost.

Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
Yep, this one works awesomely. Plus, you can train it to know your face from different angles and different lighting settings. Also, you can have it to where certain apps require face unlock, too.
[HTC EVO 3D] rleonard55:
Thanks for the heads up, it works great.
[HTC EVO 3D] swishersweedz420:
had this one but it keep letting my son unlock it. don't think the facial recognition is as good as the other one.

but applock block only app, no screen display..
[HTC EVO 3D] polo79:
my buddy cracked that app by using a picture of me on his phone and holding it up to my phone. Fwiw.
[HTC EVO 3D] RKnight1983:
The updated version has the option to enable liveliness where you have to make facial movements like blinking to unlock to prevent photos being used. I have been using this app for a while now and love it. The developer is quick to respond to any comments or suggestions also.
[HTC EVO 3D] raman21raman:
yeah its osm application i jusstt mind blowing i m using the premium version its giving me the ics feature...

if u want to get rid from hacking u have to buy the premium version and there is live detection also and u in premium edition u can use it as lockscreen too
[HTC EVO 3D] RKnight1983:
Yeah using it with the lock screen is reason enogh to buy the premium. I love how nicely it plays with the stock HTC Lock Screen also. I hope the ICS Face Unlock feature plays nice with the HTC Lock screen also when ever HTC pushed out what will hopefully be Sense 4.0 with ICS.
[HTC EVO 3D] blackroseMD1:
Here's the ICS FaceLock apk. Not sure if it can be hacked to work with Gingerbread because it's likely dependent on the ICS framework, but figured I'd throw it out here just in case.

Evo 3D in full Affect
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
Thanks to blackroseMD1 for the apk,

I changed the min sdk ver to 10 so it will install on 2.3.3 devices. APK:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/30610092/signedFaceLock.apk

I installed it with adb. I don't know if the built in installer will install it. The application is pretty small and is called "Set Up Facelock" in settings>applications. You can't open and I'm guessing its only part of the face unlock feature. It has a settings icon.
[HTC EVO 3D] blackroseMD1:
Damn...yeah, seems like almost every apk from the system dump says that when I try to install them. My bad.

Sent from The Restaurant at the End of the Universe while drinking a Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
I believe that is because of the minimum SDK version in AndroidManifest file. The minimum SDK is "14" which is android 4.0. If you want to be able to install on older versions, change it to something like "10" which is Android 2.3.3. You can use apktool or apkmanager (easier) to do this.

If you keep getting this error after changing the sdk version, use adb to install it.

Note that for half of them you will get an error when decompiling. Also, for live wallpapers and a lot of the stuff, expect force closes.
[HTC EVO 3D] blackroseMD1:
Thanks for the tips. Gonna mess around with a few of these between football games today then.
[HTC EVO 3D] mryadig:
cool..this rocks
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
When de-compiling I don't see any errors but it only leaves me the smali folder.

Why not try visidon applock? It can lock apps and lockscreen.
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Been using Visidon for a while and love it. It does have the occasional camera failure but nothing is perfect.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danzano:
I currently use setcpu and under advanced when i try to change the sample rate it goes haywire and stops then set cpu force closes tried different settings even default doesnt work tried different kernels to.

Any help would be great or if i can manually set the sample rate ?

also nice levels battery save levels up threshold or down threshold

Everything on the advanced list :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Bronk93:
I Odin'd the jk2 leak (not Jordan's ROM), rooted with Entropy's kernel then flashed the jk2 zimage and everything was fine, I could see my music and everything. I did not need to use Linux's sd card fix because I had no need to. All of the sudden, in settings for my sd card it says "unavailable". I said "what the hell" and tried the sd card fix and it didnt work. I formatted my sd card using my pc, nothing, and I even tried to Odin the jk2 leak again, still nothing.

The only thing I can think of would be flashing back to an earlier firmware like uckd5 which breaks root and starting over. Ideas?

For the hell of it I used the ultimate unbrick and that STILL didnt work, so I plugged in a brand new 2gb sd card and it still says "unavailable". Well, I've done everything I can think of, maybe its a hardware failure.

hello,

is there an app that could enable me connect a flash memory drive directly to my android using a usb port in android
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogier666:
An app is not enough, because you need a modified USB port too. Your phone won't power your flash drive unless you mod the hardware.

Anyone working on an sdk port? They have stable builds over at ns4g that work flawlessly for the most part. So?
[EVO 4G General] Xdaoscar996:
I was lookin for this 2....

[EVO 4G General] rockrulez11:
we probably won't see a stable port for a few weeks, but these devs continue to surprise us everyday!!!!! keep it up guys!
[EVO 4G General] Cares:
Stable builds and working for the most part is pretty contradictory. :P
[EVO 4G General] wetrabbit444:
Lol you know what I mean
[EVO 4G General] ECrispy:
Sdk ports are useless for the most part. Just wait for Aosp source to drop and I'm sure we'll have a CM9 alpha pretty soon. The Evo is after all very very well supported in the community.
[EVO 4G General] ringoshu:
Hurray for that ;)
[EVO 4G General] bigfdaddy:
I know on the evo shift they already have a rom that half works..
[EVO 4G General] Cares:
CM came out and said they aren't working on CM9 (ICS) until AOSP source is released. They don't want to have anything to do with SDK ports.
[EVO 4G General] cr5315:
Once the ICS source is out, we're gonna see a whole bunch of ports and stuff. I think I'll keep my evo on cm7 until the day when cm9 is out. Might even use boot manager to use whatever cm9 betas are released.
[EVO 4G General] JUN10R831:
We wont get anything stable tell we have the source for ICS and from i heard it wont be tell mid November and i would take atleast 2-3 for devs to get anything good for are Evo since where not on there top priority list im guessing Evo signiture or Bionic well be the first real port

Just had the ROM update pushed to my device. Looks like the HTC security bug fix.

Security and performance update. Seems maybe a fit more responsive...could just be my imagination.

What the version number in the about phone software section?
[HTC Amaze 4G] racemepls:
I said it once and ill say it again, DO NOT TAKE UPDATES if you want S-off when it's available. Those same "security fixes" are probably closing any exploits for our developers to crack.

damn it.. i downloaded it!! and installed it..

haha i thoght about that. but then i said maybe i will get more battery life..

but meh i got a little more.. not too much
[HTC Amaze 4G] -FuRBz-:
yea i did the same, hopefully i didnt shoot myself in the knee with that
[HTC Amaze 4G] hiazn:
how long did the update take? I keep getting the black screen with the android and a triangle with a ! in it, and nothing happens that I can see......
[HTC Amaze 4G] getrdy:
no worries factory reset restores pre-update .... I think
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
WRONG!

After a factory reset you'll still have the updated software.

All a factory reset does is deletes the user files in the /data partition.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Bigv69er:
took longer to install than download... took like 5 min to install... it went to that screen... then finally a bar showed up... then black screen... then green triangle... another bar, and then it reset
[HTC Amaze 4G] biccio:
Bit more battery?? It needs tons more...I am waiting to update.

Does the update allow you to root anyway with the One click method??

I don't want to screw that up... S-OFF and ON does not change to me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gaww:
There is no s=off method yet, but this will remove perm root is you have done it. Supposedly, you just need to do the perm root again.

I have blocked the update so far as I do not see an immediate need for it. I had heard that the patch is for an HTC wide venerability fix.
[HTC Amaze 4G] biccio:
Venerability?? You typing with mobile I suppose...you meant Vulnerability I hope.

Anyway I would like to be sure I can root after the update and flash any rom with the recovery mode.
[HTC Amaze 4G] iGoOsE76:
I did the update too... so what did this update do for us?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Splaktar:
Should have fixed the fairly major security vulnerability in HTCLoggers.apk which let any app with Internet permission access your contacts, call logs, location tracking, etc.

Hmm, thanks. I let it sit for about twenty min. at work yesterday and was still on that screen. It just made me wonder if it was an error message or something! ill try it again later....

I've noticed improvement of my battery life after updating, also the phone doesn't heat up as much as before...
[HTC Amaze 4G] kyo_vs_iori:
Not really sure what this update did in regards to battery life, but my screen transitions does seem slightly smoother when going from a full page widget to another (example: weather to calendar).

Before installing it did state the package was for "optimisation"...whatever that means :confused:

I've been unable to apply the update, I've given it 30 minutes and it stays on the screen with the android and yellow alert triangle with no change. Of course, I'm rooted and have done some customization of my framework-res.apk which is probably why. Has anyone successfully applied the update after rooting?

Will it change anything if already unlocked using htc method? Not that I have but curious to know. ;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
what prerooted roms means? for example let's say, once i unlock my bootloader and instead of using the one click method to root it, i can just go with the prerooted roms?

noo you need recovery.img and then flash prerrooted roms :D

OTA update 1.36.531.6 installation trouble

I am having trouble installing the 1.36.531.6 update.

Using HTC's update gives Android with "!".

Yet when trying to apply it from ClockWork Recovery, the attached error is being displayed.

Any ideas?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Flash the stock recovery from hboot, update your rom, re-flash the clockwork recovery.

You will lose root.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Amiganaut:
I successfully applied the update. I flashed stock recovery from fastboot, then booted up the phone, selected the update then let it do its thing. It rebooted the phone a couple of times during the process, then gave me a success! message, and all was well. I did lose root, but I didn't lose any of my programs or settings. I then went into fastboot, reflashed ClockworkMod (which I had saved out as an .img), then applied the su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip and root was back.

So far, I really haven't noticed any change but it's only been a few hours.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
It has been reported that users are experiencing an increase in battery life and a cooler phone. It would make sense that they two are related so it would benefit everyone to do this update.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fibonacci00782:
My OTA update keeps failing. I was rooted, and tried reverting back to the stock image before I did anything. OTA still fails, I get the triangle-exclamation point-android image. My next step is to remove clockworkmod recovery and try again.I've tried wiping all cache, a number of reboots and restores... still same thing.

Any suggestions?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
You need to have stock recovery to flash the official update.

Alternatively you can try xboarder's quiksense 1.2.1 rom.

It's basically the same thing except without the bloatware and a few added tweaks for improvement.

FULL SIZE KEYBOARD DOCK, Model No: ECR-K15AWEGSTA

It looks like it is a 10.1 size keyboard but with 8.9 slot. The keyboard is wider than the tablet, unlike for 10.1 where the difference is negligible. But that's not really important, what is that the keyboard is super comfy and completely changes the way you interact with the tablet. Especially when you extensively use Documents To Go app or similar. Anytime I have an opportunity to use it I do it instead of using Thumb Keyboards app I have installed as well. This keyboard has fully functional tablet port passthrough extender. I checked its operation with USB and SD card adapter, it works flawlessly. You can also plug your charger while typing or chatting long hours with Google Talk without worry that your battery will die. Tablet recognizes keyboard automatically and switches its input mode to Samsung keyboard without you doing it manually. Tablet fit is tight so it wont wobble back and forward as you move it around. Anti-slip cushion pads underneath prevent keyboard from shifting when you type or push tab screen. Price is $79 plus free shipping on manufacturer website. See photos down below.

MULTI-MEDIA DOCK for Galaxy Tab™ 8.9, Model No: EDD-D1C9BEGSTA

MULTI-MEDIA DOCK for Galaxy Tab™ 8.9, Model No: EDD-D1C9BEGSTA

This dock fits perfectly to my 8.9 tab. Like the keyboard dock it has Samsung connector and 3.5mm jack passthrough. Same thing with charging the tab, you can do it by connecting your charger. When you connect it to your PC, you can transfer files to and from your tab. Both USB and SD-Card adapters - separate accessory - works as well. Very sleek and high quality looking design. If you can live with touch screen keyboard and you need a dock, this is the one for you. Price tag is $35 directly from manufacturer website.

Galaxy Tab 8.9 Leather Pouch, Model: EFC-1C9LBEBSTD

SGT8.9 is one of the thinnest tabs around so why not to enjoy it? That is why I purchased this pouch which perfectly protects my tab whenever not in my hands. The fit is perfect and material quality high, although I am not sure if this is genuine leather. But it is thick enough for years to come. Tab wont slip out of it uncontrolled, on the other hand it requires no effort to take it out of the pouch. I love it. Purchased directly from manufacturer website, worht every penny.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] kjgear:
My local Best Buy had the 10.1 keyboard and it was smaller than the picture of it I had in my head. From pictures, I just imagined it being a tad bulky and not very attractive. But it felt nice in my hands, felt pretty solid and well made. It even has a little sex appeal... a little. The keys feel and work well, very responsive and have a pleasant touch to them. Unfortunately, they did not have one for the 8.9 Tab. I might just have to order one of those bad boys. Although, a bluetooth keyboard/stand combo would be pretty awesome too. Hmmm... Decisions, decisions...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BlakAcid:
I've scoured the forums and a good portion of Google. Basically, I'm looking for a case for my ATT SGS2 that fully encloses it. I work in a factory and screen protectors tend to not hold up very long (chemicals and metal chips tend to pick at and wear them away). I had an iPhone 4 with an Otterbox Defender that worked very well. The case looked a little worse for wear after I took the phone out, but the phone was completely undamaged. Is anyone aware of something like this for the ATT SGS2 that is currently available or coming out?

I wouldn't mind another Otterbox as I know they work, but I would love to see LifeProof make a case for this phone (those cases look very nice).

Thanks.

I aqm thinking about trading my mytouch 4g slide for a senwsation

Everyone isw saying the slide is better

But i really miss a big screen phone

So are there any pros to this
[HTC Sensation] thegregulator:
I don't know much about the Slide 4G but from what I've seen I would trade it for a Sensation in a heartbeat. I despise slide out keyboards. I know lots of people like them but I can't stand the way they make a phone feel in my hand. Because the Sensation's screen is larger I don't have any issues with typing on the touchpad. The Sensation feels like such a premium device. The camera from the Amaze has been ported to the Sensation so it's not like the Slide has that advantage, really. I would make the trade but I don't know a ton about the Slide. Anyone else out there that does?
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Biggest one...the amount of development the Sensation has.
[HTC Sensation] stanleynhan:
i have to agree with you there. slide, amaze and sgs2 havent had so many devs working on roms, so i say yes to switching to the sensation unless you want to wait for galaxy nexus

Only thing is that the MT4GS has a better camera with f2 and other stuff, compared to the Sensation's 8MP. But, it's true that Devs have no interest in the MT4GS or Tmobile's "SGSII"(most likely due to CPU?). These phones have very poor support and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone wanting ROMs.

P.S. No offense to the Devs of the those phones
[HTC Sensation] wiswis:
Ya i luv custom roms

I shouldve got a sensation
[HTC Sensation] Ace42:
You should defiantly trade phones if you care about development, I want a sensation for the same reason. I was considering the Amaze but development isn't as rapid.
[HTC Sensation] wiswis:
i want to give my slide to tmobile cause dust under screen can i ask them for a sensation
[HTC Sensation] Ace42:
Only if it has been within 30 days...Otherwise this type of switch only happens when tmo if out of stock os slides then they offer a comparable phone. If the phone was broken under warranty they'll exchange it thru asurion and give you another phone. You could sell it in the XDA market place, ebay, or craiglist(dangerous!).
[HTC Sensation] wiswis:
crap thers no craigslist offers too trade it for mytouch4gslide and i dont wanna sell and then buy
[HTC Sensation] Ace42:
You'll have to sell unless you can find someone here on XDA willing to trade it. Getting it through a warranty is tricky since they need to be out of stock and what not.
[HTC Sensation] wiswis:
Ok I went to tmobile to exchange this but she said I have to call customer care

So how should I do that and if I tell them to give me a sensation will they
