[General Questions and Answers] animal_7:
Hello.

I'm a "Runnymede Sense 3.5 v2.2 OC daemon & Raf 1.9 O kernel"-user.

Unfortunatly, the proximity sensor dosn't work well when I get a call. The screen gets black and won't wake up 'till the other side hangs up. So there is no chance to take a look at the calendar or to hang up while the connection is active.

Does anybody have a solution to this problem? Thanxxx

In particular, the barely there case from case mate? Just wondering, might get one!

Also, I got that case a while ago, any better ones? The case mate is nice, but a bit snapped off just above the volume rocker, and in the corners from flexing to get the case off.

Thanks

[Galaxy S II General] bryanchapman9999:
Nice post. Not happened to me *yet* but you never know.

Here is the direct link to Hellcats K-tool

Backing mine up now ;)
[Galaxy S II General] s2d4:
You had the EFS image file already, all you had to do was rename the file then use ktool and you were done within seconds..

You probably could've done it via pm as I don't think it was a good idea to try any suggestion that was thrown at you in public forum...

btw, this is original development section.. someone move it to general please..
[Galaxy S II General] vnvman:
Actually i don't understand how he made it: ktool doesn't use a tar file like posted, but an img file, and you can only find tar.gz files in the backup folder. How do you get an img file out of those?
[Galaxy S II General] stylez:
Sorted ;)

Used K-Tool since the method mentioned via terminal never worked..
[Galaxy S II General] vnvman:
Good for you :)

But what did you do exactly? How did you obtain the img file for ktool to flash it? I only have the tar backups from the Efs_ backup folder...
[Galaxy S II General] jcrompton:
I did not have a new efs image file

All the files I had had been corrupted

I spent four days PMing all the big wigs re this. It's not as simple as you think unless you familiarize yourself with EFS backup BEFORE you need it!

Clockwork mod and nandroid backups do not alter the efs folder when a backup is restored! It must be backed up separately
[Galaxy S II General] jcrompton:
I did not have an image file either. Look above at my post where I describe how to do it from step number 1 forward

I didn't use the tool to fix it

I just suggested getting the tool and learning how to use it
[Galaxy S II General] Odia:
Just to make the whole thread clear, is your IMEI now the original IMEI or the default U1 IMEI of 0049...?
[Galaxy S II General] vnvman:
Hmm..in the end i fixed this by flashing the efs from the official kh3 firmware through odin (clear efs checked). Now my imei changed to a generic one but i don't really care: i have my baseband back and the phone works. I just hope the FBI or something isn't after me now.
[Galaxy S II General] jcrompton:
Do you have an EFS_BACKUP folder on your sdcard? And if so do you have any compressed files with older (mine was dated Dec31 2010) .nv_data.bak files?

If you do then that's what I ultimately used to restore my IMEI (not the generic one)
[Galaxy S II General] vnvman:
Thanks, i'll try that right away.
[Galaxy S II General] HellcatDroid:
kTool does both, raw .IMG dump and filebased .tar.gz backup. :)
[Galaxy S II General] nfribeiro:
Does K-Tool work with CF-Root kernel?
[Galaxy S II General] vnvman:
Wtf, i got answered by Hellcat himself! :eek:

Thanks, i didn't notice that option, i would have gone much less nuts if i knew it, stupid me :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] HellcatDroid:
Yes, should work fine.

Should you find any missbehavings or issues though, please let me know and they shall be fixed :)

lol xD :D

Well, but not necessarily stupid, the first few versions indeed only made the raw .IMG dump and the button still only says "backup to /sdcard/efs.img" (yeah, I should really change that text :rolleyes: )

But since some 1.2x build it makes the .tar as well and when you hit the restore button it asks if you want to restore the .IMG or the .tar :)
[Galaxy S II General] vnvman:
Haha yeah right, i never hit restore because i didn't have an img dumped to the sd so i thought i had nothing to restore there :D
[Galaxy S II General] nfribeiro:
Thanks. I will try it.
[Galaxy S II General] eranyanay:
Im getting lost in here...

Theres HellCat's KTool that does backup/restore on the phone itself,

and there's EFS Pro, which works through the computer.

In case of trouble, do each one of the methods works in a 1 -click operation?

I understand that the difference is that Ktool requires root, when EFS Pro doesnt.

is that the only difference?

I have a .tar I made myself of /efs, and a backup I did with KTool. is that enough or should I use EFS Pro too??
[Galaxy S II General] geronimo_2:
I do both, and also copy/paste EFS folder with root explorer to my PC, just to be on a safe side. I guess I'm paranoid :rolleyes:.

There is a thread arround that someone says that he wasn't able to restore from .img, only from .tar so take a look and take both type backups in EFSPro.

cheers.

There are a lot of factors involved in the question you asked. What you need to ask yourself are these questions:

What plan will you be choosing

What manufactuer do you want to go with

Run through these and I'm sure it will narrow it down very quickly ;)
[TG01 General] kapitango:
Hi everybody,

Is it possible to play music over the headphones? I mean the original hands-free.

When I connect the hands-free to my TG-01 I can use it only to speak on the phone, but the music plays over the phone speaker .
[TG01 General] nikola92:
It is bug, for me the worst :(
[TG01 General] (InsertNameHere):
Try S2P, that works, as do a few other apps like PocketMusic and WinVibe

It is probably to do with the electrical impedance of your headphones, for instance, if you plug a 3.5mm plug that goes to your stereo, this is what happens, but if i plug in my headphones, works fine, so try another pair of headphones.
[TG01 General] nikola92:
Well i was thinking he was tallking about WP7 :D My bad ....
[TG01 General] kapitango:
I'm with WM 6.5 and play the music with Windows Media.

I found the problem. It works with the original headphones. I try with 5 different headphones and only two works. With the other 3 the sound automatically gone to the phone speaker.

Thanks to (InsertNameHere).
[TG01 General] (InsertNameHere):
yep, this is a known problem with the TG01, it detects the impedence of the phones/cable being plugged in, if its of the wrong type, this is what happens, there are ways to trick it, you need to use a different headphone adapter though, there is a thread in the accessories thread.

[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
THIS APP AND THREAD HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY THIS ONE HERE: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2711912

CF.lumen changes the colors of your Android device's display based on the position of the sun. With the default settings, your display will get a warmer tint (lower color temperature) when the sun is down, to look more like indoor lighting and less like the sun, which causes less strain on your eyes and doesn't keep you awake as much.

This is an addon for Chainfire3D, you need to have both Chainfire3D and Chainfire3D Pro installed to be able to use CF.lumen

With the default settings, blue tints will be reduced in brightness when the sun goes down. This reduces how much looking at the screen keeps your brain awake later at night. If you have sleeping problems, you should definitely be using this. Do yourself a favor and install similar software ("f.lux") on your PC as well - it fixed my sleeping cycle.

There is also a full-on sleep mode that runs on a pre-set schedule. By default it shows the entire screen in red, so as to not destroy your night vision when you look at it.

When you want the screen to look normal for a bit (for example for gaming or looking at pictures) simply tap the notification in the notification tray to disable CF.lumen until the next time you turn on the screen.

Additionally, it can also use the light sensor to automagically switch to sleep mode when it is fully dark. HOWEVER, you should be aware that most devices do not have a sensitive enough light sensor to detect the difference between house light and darkness, so this function may not work very well on your device.

Last but not least, a function is also provided to turn off the screen based on proximity sensor activity.

[Android Software Development] Chainfire:

[Android Software Development] swm5126:
Works pretty well, except for that when it's enabled, it seems to somehow turn off the fade screen transition in CM7 when you hit the home key. The screen still correctly shrinks, but once it shrinks it just waits for a split second, then disappears. Normally it shrinks and fades at the same time. This isn't a big deal really but I figured I'd post it here in case I'm not the only one.
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
Still thinking about how to best do that. In the newer Android versions (Gingerbread and up) you actually HAVE to have that icon to make sure Android doesn't constantly kill the background service.

Alternatives are for example to restart the service on a timer, I think I'll build that in at some point.
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
CF.lumen updated to v1.2

Changelog:

- "Sleep in the dark" now checks for proximity as well as light levels

- "Bright light" mode added, switches to Day mode in bright light even when in Sundown or Night mode

- "Notification Mode" settings added. Can remove notification. WARNING: Doing so may lead to CF.lumen being shut down by Android at random times.
[Android Software Development] avgjoemomma:
Can you add the option for the bright light mode to switch to night sundown mode instead of day mode? I'm also seeing 7-8% CPU usage with the proximity sensor enabled. I like the idea of this feature for battery savings (example, putting the phone in my pocket and having the screen turn off immediately) so if there is any way to tweak the battery consumption it would be great! Would you be able to have the icon displayed change to reflect the mode it's in? For example a sun for daytime, moon for sunset mode, etc.?

One last thing, noticed that the Sleep filter setting does not get saved with version 1.1. It says Unknown even after you have selected a filter.
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
v1.3

Minor bugfix release v1.3:

- Minor crash fixes

- Current color filter display no longer says "Unknown"

- CPU usage reduced

- Power usage reduced
