[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] actinogen:
In the Ultimate Kang Bang there use to be a feature to use the power button as the camera in the camera application. Apparently from all the other roms and things i've tried, I cannot get this ability back. Is there anyway to do this hack again?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nm3210:
Have you tried to replace the Camera.apk with a newer one that supports the power button?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] actinogen:
Well I found one hacked camera apk but it says it works for froyo and also my clockworkmod is too new for it, and when I try to install it from My Files in the apk instead of zip, it says it cannot install.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] actinogen:
So basically I guess I need a link to a newer camera apk that works for gingerbread and cwm 3+
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nm3210:
Well what ROM are you using right now? You could just download a ROM that features the power button shutter and extract the Camera.apk and put it in your own system/apps....wipe your dalvik cache and you should be able to see if it works out for you.

MP4's on the Galaxy S encoded using Handbrake and MP4 aren't respecting the Pixel Aspect Ratio.

Meanwhile MKV's on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 don't respect the Pixel Aspect Ratio.

In otherwords, they only see the size of the actual video frame and not the intended frame.

That seems a little naff.

Thoughts?

Im using Strict anamorphic mode in Handbrake to keep vertical resolution.

Guess I'll have to change to none.

[Nook Color General] DCBlueStar:
I need some serious help, I guess. I couldn't even tell you what happened.

**NOTE: I have to post the youtube titles the to tutorials I used since I'm new. I can't post the links.***

Anyway, I am new to nook. I tried to get cute and root it (and thought I was doing so with the MicroSD method) but it wasn't the way I wanted to do so.

I followed this guys tutorial [SEARCH YOUTUBE FOR How to Install CyanogenMod 7 on the Nook Color (PC Version)] to install CyanogenMod 7 on the Nook Color.

Here I am everything's going along fine, and then he gets to the part where he says "take out the SD card and reboot..." and I'm going "WHAAAT?!" I didn't want to root my nook, but create a start up image on my MicroSD card so it wouldn't come to this situation...

Anyway, I did what he said because I'd gone too far as it was. When I tried to reboot, the CyanogenMod 7 screen just stuck loading and loading. I rebooted NUMEROUS times, and nothing... so I repeated all his steps again, and nothing.

I tried to format the cache, data and system. That worked fine... but I think at one point I accidentally chose "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition."

I tried using his reversal method here [SEARCH YOUTUBE FOR How to Unroot / Restore / Unbrick the Nook Color (PC Version)] to get my NC back to normal, but upon following these steps, found myself with an error when trying to format the data.

The error reads, "Formatting /data... Error formatting /data!"

Does ANYONE have any idea what I did, and how I can reverse it?

I can pay a couple of bucks to whoever helps me out to show you that I am dead serious about this.

I am a newb, so I'd need some detailed instructions.

I have two MicroSD cards that I can use, one 2GB and one 16GB.

Please help!!!

Email me at ashleyhill@tampabay.rr.com... please due let me know if you have Skype or Yahoo. I prefer a live chat.

PLEASE... God bless you.
[Nook Color General] DCBlueStar:
I apologize. I think I posted this in the wrong section.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
Firstly, don't panic, no need to. If the first time doesn't work out, try a couple more times.

Secondly, we're here to help so relax and try to tackle your issue slowly.

Now, be sure to tell us what you intend to do NOW (at this stage of your NC)?

a. returning to the original stock ROM or

b. installing and running CM7 from internal memory (aka. eMMC) or

c. booting CM7 off uSD card

If the answer is either a or b, then first step, try getting the ClockworkMod Recovery (CwM R) version 3.2.0.1.
[Nook Color General] Landara:
If you want to go back to stock on a NC you can ALWAYS do so(unless you screwed with your partitions which I doubt you did) by doing this simple thing:

-Power it off.

-Now turn on.

-While it's booting up hold down both POWER and N buttons.This will power your nook off no matter what every time, it's built right into the device. Great for getting out of bootloops.

-Do this EIGHT TIMES.

Your Nook was designed to be nearly "UnBrickable". After 8 failed boots it will always restore it's factory settings. So unless you've tried this and it did not work, then no, your Nook is not ruined. Obviously you don't wanna have an SD card in there while doing this, or you will probably get AIDS.
[Nook Color General] grrmisfit:
you can also do it by holding down "Power" "N button" and "Up volume" at same time and it will do a factory reset

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Ronis_BR:
Hi fellows,

I was thinking, why should we stuck on 2.6.35 kernel? If we want to have a possibility to update our devices, we must have our kernels up-to-date, right?

Last night, I did a couple of scripts that can generate patches from a git tree from a start commit until an end commit. And another that can apply these patches to another tree and list the ones that wasn't applied correctly.

So, I thought if I get all patches from, let's say, 2.6.38 android kernel_common tree from 2.6.35 version commit until the HEAD and apply it to our 2.6.35 kernel, then we should get something like a 2.6.38 kernel, am I right?! I know that our kernel tree is something like a Frankenstein tree, it is a 2.6.35 with some patches from newer kernels, but these patches we can just ignore.

Last time I try to update 2.6.35 to 2.6.36 using this approach, I saw that I need to apply more than 10k patches and it will take something like a day to do here in my machine. After, the patches that wasn't applied correctly should be check. So, firstly, I want to verify if anyone see something wrong in my approach, it will save me a lot of time :)

Let's discuss!!!

Thanks,

Ronan

Wont porting over Kernel 3.x a be a better thing

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kgene/linux-samsung.git;a=summary

We can diff out this n our current source(2.6.35 GB Update2), and then patch
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
The overcome kernel is patched with latest patches (as far as I can remember) however it wont't boot therefore it had to be spoofed with 2.6.35 to get boot. Maybe Alterbridge86 can shed more light on this.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
He's right. My kernel is patched up to 2.6.35.13 BUT I have to spoof the kernel version as 2.6.35.7. I suspect no matter what you patch the kernel to, it will always need to be spoofed because of Samsung's proprietary crap. The RFS drivers, amongst other things, are proprietary so we use the precompiled modules from an existing initramfs. Obviously Samsung is using the 2.6.35.7 source, so those modules will not load if the source is reporting a higher version than 2.6.35.7.

I imagine you could patch the kernel up to whatever you want, however the hard part is getting the patches. I don't believe an incremental patch exists to go from 2.6.35 to 2.6.36, 37, etc.

The only thing I think you could do is get full source trees for 2.6.35 and 2.6.36 and then do a manual diff on them, creating your own patch, then try and patch that in to the samsung kernel source.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cdesai:
Patches used to be availabe before kernel.org went down, i have all patches for 2.6.32.x(incremental), or maybe they are still there are i just overlooked them

Telling my point again, porting Kernel 3.0 would be better than 2.6.3x
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Ronis_BR:
Alterbridge86,

I wrote a script that can take all patches from a kernel tree from a specifc commit up to HEAD. It uses the log and format-patch. So, it is easy now to clone android kernel common tree, switch to, let's say, 2.3.38 branch, and take all the patches from 2.6.35 release until HEAD.

I actually got it from 2.6.36 branch (+ 11000 patches). Basically, I have the incremental patch. Now i just need some time to apply it all using another script rejecting everything that can't be patched flawlessly, built it, and verify if this "2.6.36" version works.

Now, why doesn't try 3.0? Well, i need to test the concept. The number of patches to go from 2.6.35 to 2.6.36 is more than 11000. I just can imagine how many patches exist from 2.6.35 to 3.0. I just don't have the computational power here to do this...

Anyway, I am a little out of time by now. When I have news, i will post here.

Thanks for all the advices,

Ronan

Hello, any News on porting the new Kernel?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] h4x0rm1k3:
Hi all, I've got a bit of a problem. After finally managing to root, hack bootloader and install MiniCM7(latest) I installed Barnacle Wifi tether and it was all working fine. Now, I don't remember exactly why now but while using root explorer I cleared the Dalvik cache in /cache and /data. After doing that and going back to the menu every app I had open started throwing up errors which was to be expected as i'd just deleted all the settings or whatever for them. anyway, I tried to reboot my system and it failed to boot so I had to re-install through CWM.

Ever since then i've not been able to get barnacle or any other wifi tether app working properly! What happens is that it installs fine, asks for SU permissions and when I click start it seems to be running fine. When I try and connect on my PC I see Barnacle and am able to connect but as soon as I do it kicks me offline again, the other wifi apps don't even connect or show connected but I get no access!

I've tried a few different custom roms but it's much the same really. So far i've managed to wifi tether through the standard wifi tether in settings but it's not the same and seems a lot slower than usual, plus I want to be able to download on my PC and use Android market at the same time and I can't do that with the standard SE tethering options. I've also tried many different suggestions to get wifi/tethering back through various threads in this forum and others but to no avail so far.

So, I'm wondering if anyone might know what I have to do to get it all up and running again as at the moment i'm tethering through USB and using easy tether as it seems faster and more stable but i'd rather be free of wires and be able to use Barnacle again.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, they'll be much appreciated.

go into settings

I'm interested to hear from those who have tried or bought the Skyrocket on how the GPS performs compared to the OG GS2 GPS? I'm on the fence like others and would like to know if the Skyrocket GPS is better/worse/same as the OG GS2. For me, I have 6 days left on my OG GS2 30 day return period. I'm very pleased so far with the GPS performance (superior to my previous Infuse and Captivate phones); however, I miss the 4.5" screen. I can get the $149 price on the Skyrocket, but honestly, I do 99% of my data transfer via WiFi, so LTE not criticial today. If the GPS on the skyrocket compares to OG GS2, I may pull the swap.. if not, probably keep the OG. Thanks!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] guitarevan07:
After everyone saying that it's soooo different and no one can tell its even Pentile, I thought I would love this phone, especially with it's thinness!

Went to verizon today to check it out (they had one on display). Still obviously pentile. Granted, a LITTLE better than the bionic, but it's still no where as close to as crisp as ANY phone that doesnt sport the Pentile matrix, like the thunderbolt, iphone, even blackberry Torch.

I don't know about you all, but I CAN'T STAND IT. It's so ugly to me to have jagged looking edges and lines through you're screen. My old Blackberry Storm 1 did better than this.

I'm really hoping the pentile on the Galaxy Nexus is better than this, or else I'm just still going to be wishing I had something like the galaxy SII
[Motorola Droid RAZR] adamdipro:
Hey, thanks for your opinion, I am interested in what people who have actually seen the thing in person have to say. The stores near me dont have it on display yet so I appreciate the info!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JohnnyTrue:
If u like this phone just buy it, forget abt the screen and battery, just buy and enjoy.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zetsumeikuro:
It'll be the same thing probably on the Nexus. It really isn't that big of a deal so don't worry about it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] guitarevan07:
Yeah it really isn't THAT big of a deal but I just don't understand what's so hard about using a little bit better of a screen. I think the nexus will at least make up for the screen with ics and the on screen buttons and NFC. Though much thicker :/. I can't wait to really feel how light this razr is once its out of the display clunky holder thing.

It felt reallllyyyy light even with that thing on there and the thinness is incredible. I sold my bionic a few weeks ago and I have been using a 4s, and I'm getting so sick of not having my 4g. This razr will be a nice change, though the screen definitely looks subpar. I just wish there was a phone on Verizon that I could show to apple fanboys and them not say that their retina display looks better. Because, fact of the matter is, it does look much better(the retina display).

It's almost sad to me that Motorola and Samsung and such brag about their screens being 720p and such when their pixel densities are still less than the retina display, and the pentile is still obvious(assuming the nexus is still the same).

I don't know, I'm just ranting.

The razr did feel very quick however, and the camera app worked VERY WELL. The shutter lag was very low! Much faster than the bionic and it reminded me of a galaxy nexus video displaying the no shutter lag. Though the pictures weren't what I was used to with the 4s, they still turned out pretty nice looking.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zetsumeikuro:
I know what you can show them! Show them the iphone 5 while they still have the 4s! Jk jk. On a serious note think about the screen sizes, 3.7 vs 4.3 and 4.65, they don't even compare. Yes it looks sharp and such, wait till they do a 4 + inch screen, and then if they can keep the same pixel density more power to them. But seriously I've been through 5 phones this year on Verizon alone: 1.) Thunderbolt 2.) Droid Charge 3.) Droid x2 4.) Droid 3 5.) Droid Bionic . To be honest the X2 screen was the worse out of them all, that phone was just utter garbage. The Droid 3 and Bionic screens although pentile, were still acceptable for day to day use and netflix. Seriously if I want breathtaking visuals I'll go home and watch something on my dual 30 inch setup.

Were you disgusted with the display on your Bionic? If you can't stomach the pentile display... There's always the HTC Rezound that you could go for. I will personally wait for the RAZR to come to my anxiously awaiting hands via fedex 11/11 by 10 am gg priority shipping. If the screen is that terrible but I like the speed/feel of the phone I'll probably stick with it. To me high quality build is a HUGE factor, I can't stand HTC/Samsung's cheap plastic build. In the end it's your own personal preferences, I'm not bothered at all by the sub pentile matrix.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wilbur-force:
OK ... this post is going to sound antagonistic but it REALLY isnt meant that way ....

are we putting too much emphasis on this Pentile issue ? I mean most of us are upgrading from phones that are a year or two old (in my case an original HTC Desire).

I assume (correct me if im wrong) that the RAZR screen (and the Nexus screen and Rezound screen - not coming to the UK) will blow my Desire screen out of the water !?

Seriously ... I have very good vision but am I genuinely going to spot Pentile without going right up to the screen and looking for it.

I think my Desire is Pentile isnt it ? and ive never considered that blocky or seen any halo effect and thats a much lower resolution !?!

Please dont take offence if you really do notice the difference but im just trying to get some perspective into this discussion .....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zetsumeikuro:
No offense taken at all! I am very attention to detail, and yes you can notice the pixelation to some level (more so on the droid x2 (the most) droid 3 bionic not enough to bother me). I can't personally say anything about the RAZR, but looking at the color saturation looks nice. To be honest I really don't care if it is pixelated even slightly. The OP is the one making the fit about the PenTile display. I don't agree with him, but he is entitled to his opinion, and I will respect that. In the end it's all about personal preference, I for one am okay with the PenTile technology. The main gripe I'd say besides the blocky/jagged text would be the discoloration, but the AMOLED on the RAZR seems to take care of that.

Edit: Derp iPhone screen 3.5 D:.
