[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] acompres:
I'm running Energy ROM right now, and i can say it's the fastest 3.5 Sense based rom i've ever used, but since my network is so...well, crap, it keeps giving me on screen advertisements coming from the Sim Utility thingie every 20 seconds since i installed the rom. (I'm on Claro Dominican Republic by the way) So to put it short, is there anyway possible i can disable or/and remove that application? it's reeeally getting me on my nerves.

Thanks in advance.

There is a forum for the prime ,and in that forum is a subforum for accessories.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tshoulihane:
where is this mythical prime forum?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
I think it's right next to the unicorn stables...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uploder:
although there isnt a forum for prime YET he's right. We dont really need new threads everyday about prime stuff in the tf101 forum. Besides people do frequent other sites besides xda. not trying to start anything im just sayin...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
I admit that I was a bit excited and should have at least posted in the accessories forum. However, I think that there's a great deal of interest in the Prime (of course), and I thought this cover was unique and innovate enough to point out. It demonstrates how much thought ASUS seems to be putting into the Prime, which is a real positive.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agfadoc:
I have been playing with this same concept for the TF101. I would love to get my hands on one of these to see how they are attaching it to the base.

I really want a VERY light weight cover just to protect the glass and give it a stand for our TF101, this might get the ball rolling for us to get something like it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
If I had to guess, there are tabs that slip into the slots where the docking station latches fit.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
Amazing idea! Ideal solution. Why the hell aren't they doing that? Hell just a spring loaded rod with 2 hooks.

G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agfadoc:
The latch should be very similar on the prime as it is on the TF101, except for the depth of the distance from latch to screen.

Would be nice to modify to fit ours, or better yet, make one specifically for it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxploration:
I hope it doesn't have magnets. It's a pointless gimmick that only Apple would come up with. To save yourself a couple of seconds fitting a tab or two or pressing a power button, you now have a case that can accidentally wipe your credit card or damage an old-school CRT TV / monitor if you hold it too close. Niiice.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
Well, with this kind of cover, I'm not sure how it would function without a magnet. There's nothing to secure it to...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdfuogh:
The magnet would have to be decently strong too, to wipe off your credit card magnetic stripe (or you put there for a long time or something).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxploration:
I've seen multiple reports of even just the iPad itself wiping credit cards and hotel room keys. The cover contains twice as many magnets as the iPad does...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickVogeli:
You mean those tabs that always break after some use? I like the magnets idea!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxploration:

I was LOLing reading about this on Engadget when some Apple iFans were saying it was "too complicated."

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slient:
What's wrong with magnets?

The original Transformer has a huge magnet in the dock to let it know when it's closed
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxploration:
The less of them, the better. I'd prefer a physical switch in the TF dock, too.

There are a hell of a lot more than one in the iPad 2 and Smart Cover, though. The iFixit teardown shows ten magnets in the iPad 2 body (four small ones in one side of the rear panel, four small and two large ones in the left side), and no less than 21 in the "Smart" Cover (two big, 18 small, and one tiny).

That's 31 magnets in an iPad 2 with cover, of which there are four large magnets, 26 small ones, and one tiny one.

I wanted to know, Will the Verizon carrier is going carry Samsung Note phone?

I tried search and didn't come up anything relate Verizon.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mircury:
Nope. It's not on the horizon for Verizon. They have the Galaxy Nexus which has the same HD screen but slightly smaller. That is the closest you will find.

Also I might add, the only carrier in the US that the note works 100% on with no compromises is ATT (or smaller carriers using ATT's network). Other carriers may work like Tmobile but with edge (slow internet) or not at all.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxmeister:

As the title suggests,

I'm after the apk for the on board Ebook app from the galaxy tab.

I recently sold mine and forgot to try and extract it for my new device.

Would anyone be kind enough to supply it for me?

Obviously if this breaches any kind of copyright then smack my hands and tell me no!

If you can, there's a big thank-you in it for you.

TIA.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] xredjokerx:
Try using root explorer and copying the APK to the system/app/ with permissions rw-r--r--

otherwise from that i don't know!

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] sevenfolds:
credits to those who found this out in other units

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i have found a solution for this problem

by reading other units solutions (even if it's posted everywhere, i just want to share this)

this thing will solve the:

E: can't open /cache/recovery/log

E: can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

and others

unbricking steps:

- remove sim card, and sdcard

- remove battery for even less than 30-20 seconds

- hold volume down, home key and power button simultaneously and put the battery, it will go directly to Download Menu

- open ODIN and DO NOT USE ONE PACKAGE, set the files, i used XXKPI with the 4 files, CSC, APBOOT, MODEM and CODE. dont use the ONE PACKAGE in this kind of flashing. i tested it but nothing happen so i used the other option.

- flash it, wait and done! back to normal.

i thought i should bring this up to the samsung center for the warranty

though i tried other options and experimenting :D

whew

thanks be to GOD. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Gribonn:
Maybe post all the 4 files for all of us?

Luckily, I don't have my device bricked... yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] vnlap:
yes, u should post a few of screens
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ahmish:
sir sevenfolds. what is the difference between the onepackage and yun split package in 4 parts
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yagya:
One packages contains all the needed files at a single tar or md5 file while using separate packages you use different tar for PHONE, PDA, CSC, BOOT in Odin... There is not much difference these file are also included in the one package zip file. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] chemicalrage:
Bull **** ! This doesnt work ...this tutorial only for soft brick

---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeyklatzko:
Anybody think it's possible to get T-Mobiles Wifi Calling working on an imported Galaxy Nexus? I want to import it but I rely on Wifi Calling at home.

Is it as simple as pulling the APK from a phone that has it or is there more to it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] farfromovin:
I'm no Dev, but I've flashed enough roms on my tmous sensation to know that its more than just that .apk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
No, there's a lot more to it.

The #1 thing that's going to be required is a radio interface layer that supports the necessary authentication calls to switch to GAN. This is assuming that the Kineto app and libraries work on ICS.

The thing that killed progress on the Nexus S was that we were never able to get a RIL that supported the necessary auth calls - and as a result it would never switch over to GAN, set up the tunnel, etc.

Kineto responded and blamed Google for "not requesting" support from the vendor for this feature. It's yet to be seen if it will work with the Galaxy Nexus. It's possible but I wouldn't count on it. Seeing as how the RIL is distributed as a closed source blob if it doesn't support it there aren't a lot of options.

At a minimum you need:

- A kernel with kineto_gan or gan-eth build in

- A vendor RIL that supports all of the auth calls to set up gan

- libganril, librilswitch and your vendor ril - librilswitch loads on boot and manages the handoff from the vendor ril (normal calling) to libganril (gan/wifi calling)

- Kineto app, libcryp98, modified libkineto that uses the local libcryp98 for ssl and tunneling.

- libaudio(I think) that has been modified to support the constructor called by kineto - it changed in Gingerbread and had to be modified to support the old call

- build.prop modified to use librilswitch, define the vendor and gan ril

It's been a while since I gave up on the port (After months of getting nowhere with Samsung or Kineto on a RIL and no RIL from other devices working on the Nexus S) so that list may be partially incomplete but it should at least give you a good starting point.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lp1527:
SO badly wish we could get it to work! It's the ONLY thing stopping me from purchasing and importing as I 100% rely on wifi calling at home.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Manacit:
If you can't get service at home, is it possible for you to get a hotspot@home that would allow you to use wifi calling transparently? I imagine T-Mobile would be willing to accommodate if you're a contract customer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] toucan509:
I work for T-Mobile and know for a fact that they now offer in home boosters, for people with low reception issues. You should try stopping by your local T-Mo store, or call Customer Care to inquire about it, because there are some restrictions, in regards to qualifying for it. Hope this helps!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
CM7 has this built in. Maybe CM9 will also.

I work in a dungeon and we have a cellular repeater in the hallway. It works well with Verizon and AT&T bands, but not so well with Tmobile. So I rely heavily on WiFi Calling while at work.

But since I'm upgrading my Verizon business blackberry to a Galaxy Nexus, I won't have to fool with it anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
It does not have the GAN/UMA wifi calling they are referring to built in. CM7 has the built in Gingerbread SIP functionality.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Exactly. CM7 built it in their roms, so hopefully CM9 will have it as well.

Probably won't happen until we start to see some Tmobile ICS phones with it included out of the box. The App is picky.

However I have heard that they are doing away with WiFi Calling (newer phones don't include it). I think they are moving to a new SIP platform and requires a new unreleased app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
This only happens on some device specific configurations like the glacier. It's a moot point entirely if the RIL does not support the calls used by kineto like the Nexus S RIL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] InternationalNexusFan:
Does anyone know how I can get T-Mobile "My Account" app to actually pull up my info?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoodred:
Spoke to 3 different TMO support (to make sure) . They all said the GNEX does support the new WIFI calling, however its all depend on google or samsung to incorporate it. They gave me a number to call Samsung (I dont have it with me right now) to request WIFI calling for GNEX
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knudsen83:
I would love to hear some follow-up on this please
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ofsinreno:
I know it's not a perfect solution but have you tried Bobsled calling app?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vandalet:
Another "not perfect" solution, But if you send your # to Google Voice, then there are a bunch of app's that can do Wifi calling very well. I use it while traveling overseas for work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] roachkazy:
Would love to hear what solutions you have come up with?

I also called T-mobile, and the HTC One had wifi calling so I am hoping that someone will port that out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nutcase:
I called both T-Mobile and Google. T-Mobile said that it "should" work but I don't have a GNEX yet, about to order one to see. Google said that basically T-Mobile had to provide the app and there is no reason for it not to work.

I also got a Cel-Fi to test if that helps out. So far on my HTC Sensation 4G the repeater isn't broadcasting signal past one room in my house. So basically I have one room covered in the house when the thing is actually supposed to be able to cover an area of "up to 13,000 sq ft". I just got it in today and haven't had the time to really mess around with it but I am going to try changing the locations of the base station and the booster to see if that actually helps at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skusa93:
Before you get a GNex and get stuck with a phone that doesn't work you need to understand that T-Mobile Wifi calling will NOT work on a GNex at all.

Devs can't even get it to work on a Vibrant running ICS and it is a TMo supported phone, so do not even hope for it to work on a GNex because it never will. Hate to be so forceful with my words but as we know GNex is not cheap and I do not want to see you get stuck with a phone that does not meet your needs and be out lots of money :D

Agreed. Remember, you're talking to callcenter employees here, not engineers. They don't usually know what they're talking about, their only job is to keep you happy.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kolyan:
Tmobile reps are idiots, some barely speak English and if they dont know how to answer your question, they just hang up on you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tatail:
I myself am looking for a way to install Wifi Calling on my GNEX but the app crashes for some reason.. I tried to seek help some time ago and I was told by a developer that the screen resolution is the problem.

So hopefully when T-mobile releases a newer version of the app for greater resolutions developers will be able to make an install-able apk from it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kolyan:
It has very little to do with app.....u need kernel that supports it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
They got it working on a Nexus One and that wasn't a Tmo supported phone. Works great BTW. I messaged the developer a week or so ago and he plans to have a look at the GN soon. I'm not sure what he modifies but the mod has to be flashed and the phone must be rooted. He needs source from a similar phone. Maybe he will be looking at the Tmo GS2 ICS release.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jyveafk:
It's the last thing I'm waiting for to pull the trigger on getting a GN.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Just use grooVe IP until it becomes available.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Saintfyre:
Probably going to be waiting for a while :(

There are viable alternatives though to assist you with your wait for this specific method for wifi calling.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itsmikeramsay:
I doubt you'll see WiFi calling on the GNexus. There's a few things needed to support it and it doesn't have those things. A few build.prop edits along with the application won't make it work. There's more integration. Like mentioned before I also believe its kernel supported as well.

Sent from ICS device!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
As noted before, the original mods were flashed, not just build.prop mods, and no reason to believe the GN will be different.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] digweed4me:
I am using Google voice with talkatone for free both on 3g and wifi works flawlessly since talkatone updated on may 3rd. Galaxy nexus has a setting on you dialer which one to use wifi calling or cellular. I do ask every time .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
The Nexus One worked because the RIL worked with the authentication. The app / kernel are already available from other devices and getting those working isn't inconceivable. The ril is a deal breaker though, and you can't modify that. It either supports the necessary calls or not (the nexus s did not, HTC's ril did).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Sounds like you know your stuff. That's too bad the GN isn't a possibility :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
It *might* be. No one has put in the work to get far enough to know if the RIL supports everything necessary. I'm just saying don't get your hopes up :) You can pull all of the APKs and libs from any other working device you want and it won't make any difference if the RIL doesn't support it.

If you are on T-Mobile it's definitely worth a shot to find out though (if it's something you use / rely on). There isn't a large enough sample size to say it won't work, but the Samsung Nexus S would *not*. The RIL from the Nexus S behaved much differently than HTC's RIL.

So, if Samsung continued in the same vein then it may be similar to the Nexus S (where Samsung blamed Google for not requesting that support). It's entirely possible it does though, I just don't imagine it likely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edwardlanti:
Now that the galaxy s3 is out for Tmobile. Do you think is possible to get wifi calling for GN?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] InternationalNexusFan:
Why not use Google Voice/GrooVe IP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edwardlanti:
Because I would have to texts and make phone calls with Google Voice phone numbers right? No one really knows that phone #
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] InternationalNexusFan:
You can port your current number to Google Voice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nilsonf:
There's an app in the Play Store called Sidecar. Not sure if its been mentioned yet or not. It uses wifi to make calls to any number for free
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
If I recall correctly, I dont think the call quality is as good either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCguy:
Then gs3 is supposed to support wifi calling. You would think the hardware and the RIL have got to be very close?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nolsen311:
What I think is that it's setup in a new way and we need someone to compare them and see if it's even possible.

Perhaps it's using the internet calling feature built in to ICS.
