[Optimus One, P500, V General] N3mesis:
First, thanks guys for not let me alone with this problem.

I think the only option is to try again.

The problem which I already explained is that I'm not sure if it could be the frequency or either another defect but everything looks like its a CPU issue. I'm sure that I didn't set it to start in a overclocked mode. But what I know is that the device was clocked to either 650/~700mhz or 729mhz. Which was maybe the reason for the device to get stuck.

Anyways the device does not allow me to go into the recovery menu to flash anything via CustomRecovery.

If I look at the reference KDZ log, then I already see clearly some differences.

Things like:

[COLOR="Red"]00:22:09 : Step Complete : Main Binary D/L to SDRAM[/COLOR]

and

[COLOR="red"]00:25:52 : Step Complete : Phone Reset(DLL Cmd)[/COLOR]

don't appear in my log also for some reason my "AuthMark" is somehow ****edup I have no Idea what this could actually mean.

I think the device is simply no more flashable because of a hardware issue maybe only a frequency issue or simply because something important to write to the flash is damaged. Or maybe the USB drivers don't work correctly? USB1 and USB2?? I think I will try a flash with KDZ updater via my Notebook making a clean install of the drivers and stuff.

Here is one thing I'm currently struggling more with:

I want to buy the LG P990 because its a cheap high quality device in my eyes. But if the device is crashing with a customron the way like my P500 I'm not sure If i should buy it even more worse that I really have no clue what caused the crash just speculation.

So again thanks for not let me alone with it I hope a clean retry with my Netbook can solve my problem.

hi,

i'm using Runnymedemod v5 by michaelm_007 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1318370) which has the following feature:

- Wake UP and Unlocked from Trackpad

i don't want that. only the power button should wake up the phone & should show the lockscreen, so i flashed (after wiping cache & dalvik cache) the "No TPUnlock-WakeUp" addon. the feature is gone but now all other buttons (home, menu, back, search) wake up the phone, though no unlock.

what can i do to accomplish that only the power button wakes up the phone?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stefus:
maybe addons from seb (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1315961)

can help you. There a a lot of possibilities and the flashable zips.

For example:

disable.buttons_wakeup_PowerWake-works.zip

do a nandroid backup before!

it seems that michael forgot the "bravo-keypad.kl" file located in \system\usr\keylayout

hey, i've installed the miui 1.11.4 on my g2x.... everything is perfect but the usb conection... windows 7 does not recognize, and the phone turns off and block... any idea what's going on??

thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] avio07:
Which MIUI are you using? By whom? Use the whitehawkx one, it works fine with USB, the other one posted in the development forum has some USB mounting issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Yea I found this to be true also. Its something to do with the rom. If you try to connect on a FRESH reboot, it works fine. But something happens after a while which will lock your phone up when trying to access the memory card via PC through USB.

If you reboot into recovery, you can mount the SD card as a test to make sure something else isn't astray.

But as an alternative solution which I am addicted to, its called WiFi File Explorer. Just enable WiFi and launch the app. It'll grab an IP that you can access from any other device on the same network through a Web Interface. You can upload, download, rename, move, etc, and even remotely install apps.

It's pretty neat and great for those with Tablets also. I can load it up on my phone with WiFi with my tablet connected via WiFi Tether. It doesn't require an Internet Connection and the transfers are directly sent to each other, so it is really fast... probably faster then SD read/write. WiFi is at least 11mbps so you can write to internal storage as fast as it can handle.

He keeps it updated pretty often. I'm always getting updates (which mainly updates the Web Interface with additional features). Great for traveling too when you don't have a sync cable. Anything with a browser can access it. It has passwords and stuff too if you want, but I don't use passwords as the connection is only on as long as the WiFi File Explorer app is open which is typically only as long as the transfer.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aplsux:
No and no.

this is a problem, and it happens sometimes only with MIUI. Sometimes it may also completely freeze.

The best workaround it to install Multi Mount SD-Card, and use it's widget - it solves the problem (you have to click on it to mount/unmount)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
MIUI is the only one I've had problems like this. Something with the USB mount locks up the phone.

If a Widget is a good work-a-round then so be it.

ok, i see but i have this problems... the phone crash on uwb connection, and sometimes the signal go off...kind of airplane mode... and i can't turn it off... and whatsapp app doesn't seem to work properly... the usb problem seems to go away if a enable debuggin stuff.. but not always!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] aplsux:
Hey wifi explorer is great, too, used it many times. You know, some people like red heads, some blondes...

OP, did you try SD Multi mount widget? You tap on the widget, and it should say connect usb 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... and it mounts.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] queenkong:
Hi all,

Have searched high and low through the net and XDA. Is there such a program that can easily convert any image into a simple apk which just shows the image and able to zoom in zoom out?

Seen quite a few subway route maps app in the market already..

Would like to convert some of my image into a app rather than a shortcut on my homescreen :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] queenkong:
Is the apk manager program useful here?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
No you have the wrong idea of what an apk is. It has alot more to it then images. You will need to write the code for it to interact with the other programs.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] queenkong:
Hi!

Thank you sooo much!

I understand that an apk is far more complicated than what it seems to be. But is there a standard script or something that works by just opening up an image?

There's a few I seen in market that works exactly the same only having the images different.

I was thinking if I were to replace the image inside that apk to my image and signing it properly after that, it will work. But the there are alot more of other smaller icon pngs inside which look the same but with different dimensions...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
If all your wanting to do is swap the images then you should be OK. Just decompile the apk. Make your changes and the recompile and sign. I have not seen an apk maker app as some of the scripts and code need to be written by hand
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] queenkong:
Roger, thank you so much!
[Nook Color General] xyzdeveloper:
May I humbly request that the ROM creators include the original Nook app in their ROMs?

I understand there are copyright issues, but since people are already including all kinda of stuff (including the forbidden gapps) in some releases this shouldn't be a major problem.

Why am I asking this? Because B&N, the company that has given us the most hackable Android device in the world, deserves to get something back. Or at the very least not outright lose money because some Nook Color cook decided to remove Nook and installed the Kindle app. Given that B&N is currently the only company that is fighting the Microsoft tax for us (hey Samsung, & HTC, I am very disappointed at you two), I would also love to see the Nook included in ROMs for other devices.
[Nook Color General] pharpe:
Just download it from the market. And what are forbidden gapps?
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
Legally they cannot.

Gapps are not included in most roms for this very reason. They are a separate download.

---------------------------------
[Nook Color General] ponyboy82:
Unfortunately, getting the stock Nook reader app will probably never happen. The Android version is definitely inferior, but it's not too bad these days. Personally, I've only actually bought ebooks from B&N.
[Nook Color General] xyzdeveloper:
Sure we can download it ourselves, but the idea is to support B&N. If the app is installed by default, more people that would usually not care (or know) about the Nook Store use it.

You can also see it this way: the day the bean counters at B&N realize that the rooted devices remove the Nook app (and some even include competitors apps such as Aldiko), they will do their very best to make the next device less hacker friendly :(
[Nook Color General] jerrykur:
I used to think like that, but don't any longer. Why, the percentage of rooted devices is very low like phones. Probably less that 2%, like phones. Second, having the ability to root and easily recover from bad rooting has giving the NC some street cred and buzz. This is an ace in the hole for B&N against the larger user base and ecosystem of Amazon.

What will force B&N to re-evaluate the rom situation will be people that root, screw it up, and then send the system back to B&N for repair. That costs B&N additional unplanned support money. If you root you cancel your warranty and your right to get support from B&N.

With that said, I do think one should support B&N by buying their books from them. Since getting my NC I have purchase over $400 worth of books so I am helping to justify the device.
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
The original Nook app is tied to the original firmware, it's too intertwined into the framework to port.
[Galaxy S II General] warrez:
ok so i installed adfree from market and it worked great i can see ads is gone but obviously it doesnt block everything so i tried to add my own list merged with the one from adfree and so i edited the original adfree hosts file added few lines into and transfered it back to my SGS2 ( couldnt edit it while being on SGS2 so i copied it to computer and edited it there ) and once transfer is complete i used "Root explorer" and moved the newly edited "hosts" file to "/system/etc" and changed permission to all able to read and only owner can write and non to execute. i also changed owner to root and group to 10110-app_110 as it was with original adfree list

rebooted my phone and it DOES NOT work at all.. the ads that original list blocked showed up on newly edited list so in simply hosts file is being ignored

any idea why?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoosierPig:
Hey all. Have an AT&T Captivate that came with Gingerbread 2.3.3 on it.

After someone 'rooted' it it now has what I am finding out is the I9000 ROM. (if I am not mistaken, that's for UK phones?? I am in the US.)

I have no Android marked, my 'Home button' does not work, and I can receive text messages, but not send them. (I can send text with a side-app)

At this point, I just want my old stock and locked AT&T phone back.

(How does that song go? ... 'You don't know what you got till it's gone'. LOL)

Can anyone help?

That should be what you're looking for.

Within the captivate forum there are threads that'll help you flash to lots of different roms. Nothing's wrong with i9000. They just need to be reoriented.

Good luck!
[HTC Jetstream] nmyseteroious:
Finally received my Sikai case that I ordered from Ebay.

To my surprise, they have added the scribe pen holder!

I was worried about the holes for the speaker being too small.

However, it doesn't affect the volume of the speaker at all (the Jetstream is so loud anyway).

BTW, I am using Skinnomi screen protector, it is so good. So much better than Zagg. The surface is not sticky and tacky like Zagg at all.

Here are some pics.
[HTC Jetstream] Ceger:
Where did you get the pen clip?
[HTC Jetstream] nmyseteroious:
I took it out from one of my pen. took a while a stretch it and get it on.
[HTC Jetstream] Ceger:
So how is it holding up? Looks alot like the Acer A500 case. After a couple of days it stretched out just enough that the tablet would slip down so the bottom of the screen got covered as wel as the camera.
[HTC Jetstream] nmyseteroious:
it is still great!! At first, I didn't wrap it tightly and it did exactly like you said.

After a while, the case got a bit bigger because of the thickness of the tablet.

However, after I tighten the thing holding it, it's perfect now.

It's even more secure than before after the break-in period.
[HTC Jetstream] Ceger:
What do you mean by "tightening"? How do you do that?
[HTC Jetstream] nv00021:
Where did you get it from? Can you post a link?

Thanks
[HTC Jetstream] backtothemac:
It looks like it would be uncomfortable to hold with the sides the way they are. Is it?
[HTC Jetstream] Russ741:
Stylus holder... FAIL....

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to stitch some elastic to the side of a case and call it functional.

The case/folio manufactures need to INTEGRATE the stylus holder not tack it on like a cheap afterthought!

Maybe if someone put a big fat crAPPLE on the back of the JetStream someone would make a decent case for it.

I have 4 cases now... they all suck in one way or another.

Rant over...

Hi everyone

Installed BlackIce just now. My first AOSP ROM and its not half bad to be honest :D

However I am having this problem which I never had on Sense ROM's. In the dialer when I go to the contacts tab there are some duplicate contacts. It's because the Facebook profile of those people doesnt link to the Google Contact. They always used to merge into one contact in Sense ROM's.

I have the Facebook app set to Sync All like I did in Sense ROM's. No settings have been changed.

How can I fix this?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaboobla:
You will have to go into your individual contacts, press edit, press menu, and select join. That will allow you to manually link your contacts from Sim card, Facebook, twitter google etc. You will have to do it for each one.

It's not quite as easy as sense but it will take care of the duplicates.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drpsyko:
For batch merging, go into People application, go into setting and choose remove duplicate. It will merge any of the contacts with exact same name.

[Motorola Droid 3] nikeusfr:
Have a big search on xda forum and :

(paste)

Simple, just remove or move libGLES_android.so from system/lib/egl to somewhere else from that folder in case if your system gets unstable while working with 3D app/game. Tested with Quadrant Advanced, got 60+ fps on 3D Planet test.

This mod already does that but in a different way: it deletes libGLES_android.so in /system/lib/egl (you can see this in the updater-script). Like many people reported this boosted their 3D quadrant score and increased FPS in some games. Why? Because quadrant and some rare games conflict with PowerVR GPU cards and use software rendering instead. So by disabling it you force them to depend on PowerVR. Hence, more FPS.

My quadrant score on rubix rom :

without tips : 2200

with tips : 2722

the earth turn at 60fps

the adn turn at 42fps

with chainfire3d (instead of 3d app doesn't work):

quadrant score 2532
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
Deleting/renaming that file also fixes n64oid. Great find.
[Motorola Droid 3] nednarb:
seems to work great. i don't do quad scores, but i play this game called trial x. on my og droid the graphics were fine, but on my d3 under the dirt bike was pixilated. removed that file and now more pixels. so it must have done something positive.
[Motorola Droid 3] willdo7474:
I moved the file to my sd card, rebooted opened up trial x and I still get the pixelation under the dirtbike.
[Motorola Droid 3] gkitab:
Rather then deleting or moving can we just rename it and it still be affective?
[Motorola Droid 3] jellman:
lol my score w/o doing this 2700-3000 multiple tests lol
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
Yep
[Motorola Droid 3] jfont25:
Hmmm...seems to have helped. Before, Windup Knight would stutter every few seconds. After, no stutter. Good stuff.
[Motorola Droid 3] nikeusfr:
And in the 3d test (under quadrant with the earth and the adn), how many fps do you have ? w/o do the tips.....what's your rom ?
[Motorola Droid 3] gkitab:
To be exact can I just change .so to .bak

I'm currently looking into learning about android development. I know i have a lot to learn. I've just been applying mods/roms/kernels to my Samsung Fascinate, but now i want to start to develop apps, and possibly in the long run help the DEV's out in fixing bugs or whatever.

so far I've read some of the stuff on the android development page. i have Eclipse installed on my Arch box. currently at work i use C++, Perl, PHP. So now I'm guessing i should pick up some books on how to program in Java. does anyone have an recommendations on some books specific to android that are very helpful, or should i just rely more on Google search? Basically, in addition to learning java, what are some specific topics that i should be looking into. i figured as my first project i'm going to create an app, so maybe i should concentrate on that aspect?

any help to point me in the right direction would be great.

thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] docodine:
compared to the iphone 4 i used to have, the infuse's glass sucks.

had the iphone from its release to the infuse's release in may, and the screen didn't hold fingerprints (easily wiped off) and had 0 scratches. apple's oleophobic coating works very well. my infuse doesn't get clean easily, fingerprints just smudge around and the screen looks nasty all the time. also, it's got small scratches all over it.

not saying the iphone is a better device overall, just that apple is superior to samsung in fit and finish, and material quality.

...not to mention the horrible color quality and banding you get at anything lower than 25% brightness, or the general creakiness and weird sounds the device makes (not solidly built at all)

i've had the phone for just around six months and though it's been nice in many ways (performance and camera quality are good) , the infuse has mostly put me off getting another samsung phone.

anyone else have similar experiences? any solutions for my screen woes?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
Yea! I get very sweaty hands at times, half the reason why I bought a big phone. I will admit dust, smudges, and fingerprints do make the phone harder to read if I'm outdoors. But when I'm indoors the smudges and fingerprints on the screen still make it very readable. I use a microfiber cloth that is very soft to clean my phone screen off each and everyday from smudges, dust, and fingerprints. The coating over the glass is what is causing fingerprints and smudges hard to clean off.

Edit: I don't like the sound and looks of phone protectors.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Jep56:
I've had my Infuse since August, and a Captivate for nearly a year before that. NEVER had a scratch on either screen. Gorilla Glass is awesome. Never use a film protector. My Infuse glass is like new. I wouldn't wipe with an Apple product, and just as my 'droid does, I eat apples.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] eroracing:
Screen on infuse is awesome! You may want to Quit using screen protectors... Mine screen still looks brands new. Picked up the infuse on launch day and never used anything for protection! There's no way you can do that with an iPhone!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] projectvirtue:
I didn't even bother getting a screen cover for mine and it's still like new after using it everyday for 3 months. No scratches, and i don't really experience the banding problem that you mentioned at all. In comparision to the iphone, i don't know why you say it has worse color quality. Side by side, the OLED display kicks the iphone display out of the water in terms of color production, not so much in terms of pixel resolution, but that doesn't affect color.
