cm7 does this, just wait
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rod3:
Are you saying that CM already does this, or they will incorporate this feature? To my knowledge this is a brand new feature introduced with this modded kernel.

Though I use a N1 which has a trackball, this would still be pretty sweet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] OuncE718:
I'm assuming this feature is very much possible, but it would be a battery hog since the sensors would have to be on at all times versus only coming on once you wake the phone with the power button.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] safeplayer22:
Yeh I can see where the battery life comes into play.

But hey it could be an option, say for someone who's power button is broken (N1 users know what I mean by this).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] OuncE718:
I was an N1 user so I know exactly what you mean. The other option that Team Kang offers is VOLUME ROCKER wake. You can use the Volume Rockers to wake the phone.

hi, I need help with writting letter in PROPER PROPER PROPER British/Irish English. It's about my social grand. I had one done already but it's not right.

Here is original:

I need to add to it that it's founded by Polish Government. I don't really have idea how it should look like... Any help is appreciated

[LG Optimus 3D] danielkaboom:
hi,..

i want to ask,..is it possible to tracing our O3D if its stolen? i mean not with 3rd party app installed(i.e. seekdroid, etc), but with google account or market account that connected with the device, or if there's any other way,..

my friend just lost his O3D, just want to help him if its possible.

thanks.
[LG Optimus 3D] Alex Atkin UK:
Why not with a third-party app? Can you not remotely install a third-party app for that purpose?

I doubt there is any other way.
[LG Optimus 3D] mistermentality:
I've never done it but my friend has installed apps remotely but dont think that would help the op as you have to run tracking apps and don't think remote installs would auto run.

You could report the theft and block the phone, and here in uk I know police can track sims if not payg ones so might help find it that way.

Dave
[LG Optimus 3D] danielkaboom:
Thx guys for your reply. Yes i thought it can be trace by using 3rd party program, but unfortunately the phone is gone before "he" install anything (just got unboxing). Police here can also trace the signal of the simcard by using cooperation from the sim operator, but it takes much much time. I guess theres no other way yet then to be prepare before something like this happen.

thanks.

edit : btw, can you tell ke how to block the phone?

Thanks again.
[LG Optimus 3D] DevJackey:
just use a 3rd party tracking app.

Lookout made an app called Plan B that's for the purpose of tracking your phone even if you forgot to install a tracking app.

Here's the link.

You can give it a try.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2842059:
I want to make sure the MHL works since I haven't purchased an adapter yet or if any other members are on the fence or who don't have the cash themselves. I'd like the thread to be a reference that it does or does not work and hopefully sort out what adapters, OEM or aftermarket, may or may not work and if there is a difference between them.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdlesher:
Okay, I'm currently at 2.3.5 KJ3 firmware, with CF-Root 5.0 kernel.

So... I was thinking of installing either a CheckROM RevolutionaryHD ROM or CyanogenMod ROM. Problem is, I'm still not familiar with this ROM installation process because it's not mentioned there...

So, I wonder if I can use CWM or Odin for this? (If I can do either way, how should I do it? Or is this always depends on the ROM itself?)

Also, final question:

Let's say I found a ROM that is based on XI4, (and as I stated before, mine is currently on KJ3) do I have to flash my firmware to XI4 first?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSaw:
What do you mean it's not mentioned there? There are several tens of lines explaining the installation process for CM7. Which part is causing you problems?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
no, you do not have to flash to XI4 first

follow developers instructions to install custom roms are usually installed through cwm.

stock roms through odin.

CyanogenMod rom are in a special category by itself and and are for people who understand the flashing process thoroughly as you could brick your phone.

stay with one of the custom or stock roms till you understand the flashing process as you can recover from them easily by just flashing a stock rom.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdlesher:
Err oops, I really should've tried harder to find CyanogenMod thread here. You see, I went to the original website, and it's really unclear there. Yes, this is my mistake -_-"

Gotcha, I'll be careful then

Bu the way, if I were to flash new firmware using CMW, which file should I put into sdcard directory, the huge TAR file, or just the kernel? (considering I'm just flashing a stock ROM)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
if using cwm, it will be a zip file which you copy into your internal sd card and then go to cwm recovery, install zip, choose zip to install then yes.

if it is a tar file then use odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdlesher:
Err.. In the stock ROM thread, it was 7zip and they are in *.exe format, I guess I gotta zip them again, eh?

Okay, so is that the big sized file (200+ MB) or just the kernel?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
it is the kernal, modem and firmware in one package.

It sounds like you are tryint to use an odin rom in cwm.

which rom are you trying to flash ?

cwm flashable roms come in a standard zip format, if is 7z then it is not a cwm file but odin file.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdlesher:
I'm thinking of trying CheckROM 3.1.1, but then I'm just afraid that it might not suit me... (and everyone says that everyone has different opinion, so you gotta try everything)

And if it doesn't, I'm not sure how am I gonna return to my previous condition, which is KJ3 & CF-Root 5. Hence the reason why I ask this question.

Btw Cosmic Blue, this is the one I'm talking about, the firmwares (ROM, I suppose?) in this thread

PS: I'm still confused with the terminologies (even though I read about them already several times), so if I made mistake, please tell me so! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
those files are flashed through Odin as they are tar files or md5 files.

they are considered stock.

checkRom is a cwm flash rom as it is packaged in standard zip format.

dvdlesher

have patience you are learning but slowly.

to return to your original condition just flash the stock firmware from the thread you have linked to using Odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdlesher:
Gotcha, are they usually referred as "Stock ROM" or "Stock Firmwares"? I'm trying to clear up my terminologies confusion here, sorry if I keep repeating the same questions, I really do :(

Thank you sir, for the encouragement.

Do I need to do those wipes, like:

- wipe cache and delvik cache

and/or perhaps

- factory reset?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
wiping cache and delvik is usually encouraged before flashing.

factory reset is done only if you encounter problems.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdlesher:
So... What would probably happen if I do wipe cache and delvik

right now

? (Assuming that I'm still in KJ3 + CF-Root 5.0 (haven't flashed checkROM yet))

Would that erase my ROM data, therefore I won't be able to boot until I flashed a ROM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
no, it will just clean any cookies and stray data left in the caches.

It will not remove any saved data or apps.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdlesher:
Gotcha, thanks a bunch man! :D

One of the things that bugs me about the Epic Touch is the screen's response time when in a call.

May i start by saying thank you. Ive just rooted my phone and was suprised by how easy it was. But.

Theres always a But, The wireless wont work properly. Sometimes it connects to my home router, sometimes it wont, but when it does, i dont get any internet. My wireless works, cos my laptop connects wirelessly. Also ive tried around my bro`s house.

Please help..:confused:

Ps keep up the good work.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
On the internal SD card, I see a directory called "App_Manager". Inside, it has a directory called "App_Backups" and that has two directories called "system_apps" and "user_apps".

Is this safe to delete? It looks like backups of all my applications.

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
I believe this folder is created with ROM Toolbox. I safely removed mine. I noticed it only added the apps if I modified them in anyway, i.e deleting one.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Thanks. I was trying to figure out what was creating this directory and updating.

That cleared out over 250mb of files for me!

[Motorola Droid X2] IDMA.DROID.X2:

[Motorola Droid X2] wolvereene:
You can also delete Backups within Rom-toolbox :

Rom Toolbox-> (Tools-Tab) -> App manager

-> Menu-button -> Batch-> (Delete Backups-Tab) -> Delete all backups

Prevent Rom Toolbox from automatically creating Backups for new app-installments :

Rom Toolbox-> (Tools-Tab) -> App manager

-> Menu-button -> Settings -> Uncheck Automatic Backup

[Motorola Droid X2] KaliS-Pugilist:

I managed to get Swiftkey TabletX running with root by following the instructions for NookColor keyboard replacement. ( nookdevs.com/NookColor_Replace_the_Default_Keyboard )

Rename keyboard to LatinIME.apk

Rename /system/app/LatinIME.apk to LatinIME.apk.bk

Copy to /system/app

chmod 644 (used Root Explorer to set)

Install

The only problem with it at the moment is having to reinstall every time I restart, otherwise it spams me with force close messages.

[Nexus S General] herbthehammer:
How about if it ain't broke then don't fix it? How about leave things alone and quit reorganizing stuff on a whim? How about not making up rules that only apply to the nexus s section but not to any other phone sections? When the ns4g finally came out, we had to beg and make a big fuss about getting a little better organization and differentiation between the ns and ns4g in regards to roms. After it finally came, there was much happiness and joy because the fear of accidentally flashing the wrong rom had been relieved a little. Then a while later, it wasn't good enough the way it was. The dev section had to be changed. Roms started being considered if they were really custom or not. If they weren't made by members here directly, then that's a no no and they don't deserve to be in the appropriate dev section. They should be moved to general, have a scolding message added in the OP's post, telling them they aren't worthy of being in the dev section, then modifying the topic subject into an "awareness" subject? The rules are the rules but they don't apply to cyanogenmod. They don't apply to him because if it weren't for him and his crew, this place wouldn't be as popular as it is/was by a long shot.

With all the android phones I've owned: moment, evo 4g, epic 4g, evo shift, optimus s, and nexus s 4g, I've never had an angering experience with the babysitters until I got to this section. I've never seen things done that seemed ridiculous and like "shooting yourself in the foot" like here. I've never seen such heavy handed managing in similar forums. I've never seen as much locking, censorship and deleting of posts as I have here. The "less than" members in this section aren't having problems and butting heads very much with each other. A good amount of the problems we are encountering are from people that are "greater than" us. We (just members) aren't chasing devs and members off to either quit or go elsewhere.

So go ahead, send me stern and reprimanding pm's saying that my behavior is way out of control. Give me infractions and lots of points and make me stay after school. Mute or erase mine and other's comments. When worse comes to worse, expel us from the school of hacking phones. What I say won't change anything, I know that. I just wanted to get a few things off my chest. I keep coming back to this section, I don't know why, I must be a glutton for punishment.

[TouchPad General] Nomedias:
Hear me out on this one before you shoot me down.

Alpha2.1 has become pretty much a daily for me, with the only real nuisance being the wifi issues. My understanding from other posts is that Alpha3 will be released before moving on to ICS for CM9. If wifi is fixed in Alpha3, it would become a definite daily for me. That said, when CM9 eventually comes out I would like to check it out and provide feedback, but would prefer not to dump a familiar and possible more stable CM7.1 until CM9 becomes as stable.

My question is this. Would it be worth the trouble to setup moboot to triple boot WebOS, CM7.1 and CM9? I doubt the CM team would want to bother with it, but I haven't dealt with moboot until this project. Would it be pretty much the same as editing Grub on a PC to triple boot?

Thank you for your considered opinion.
[TouchPad General] Y314K:
This is what they posted with the release of CM9 for TouchPad....

Guess they are not ready to share that... I think I'm gonna have to ask them about it over at RootzWiki...

I myself am looking for a triple boot solution but for a different reason...

Since Android does not allow for separate profiles on one device to allow multiple users to keep separate system settings thru out it like PC's on Windows user accounts... And it doesn't seem like they are making a iUser version for Android...

I only see a solution of 2 separate installs of CM7 or CM9 (whichever two)... And then each person can choose their installation at boot-up.... Eventually they will need to add password protection to them... But that is longs way ahead...

If u look at the vidz from ReverendKJR on YouTube.... U can see that all the CynagenMod variants seem to end up being listed as the same thing regarding of flavor... But the EverVolv ICS install is listed as a different installation... This is just the listing part.... It doesn't mean they work correctly and don't clash with each other.... But we do know that maybe 3 Roms just fit on the TP...

Hopefully they will release how to do this correctly soon....
[TouchPad General] Nomedias:
Triboot instructions may still be coming from what I've read. I hope they do, but if CM9 is stable I may not care as much. As for password protection, to what exactly are you referring? Android already has pins, patternlocks etc.

Well I decided to go ahead with CM9 Alpha0 last night (backed up my CM7 install first). So far super stable, don't really need what's broken (camera, microphone etc). One big reason was that Logmein Ignition hasn't worked since its 14 November update (older version works, but I don't trust the apk download source). Now it works, plus I can now load honeycomb apps! If this keeps up I'll probably never bother with triboot.
[TouchPad General] Y314K:
Cool... Did u do the multiple performance tweaks???... How stable is u'r Wifi???

Right... Screen Password is there.... And would work at startup... But then u would need to turn it off and to turn it back on... I am looking at a two user system for my TP.... With both parties having separate Android installs... I would prefer a moboot or another booter way to make sure the 2nd user only has access to their install of Android & wouldn't be able to mess up WebOs or my install of Android... Seems iUser would work great.. but no Android version seems to be available... Let me know if u find the Tri-Boot info...
[TouchPad General] Nomedias:
Yes, did the two fixes I saw listed. Also ran Alpha 0.5 tonight. Wifi if anything is better than CM7 Alpha3.5. Installed 3 days ago, only had to cycle wifi off/on once. Have joined 5 different SSIDs in that time, two of those on a 7 access point network on different channels (1, 6 and 11). One was open while rest were WPA2 secured.

As for the multi-user setup, if Android isn't an absolute requirement, perhaps an Ubuntu Linux install would do? I don't know how far along the project is, but if it works you should be able to create as many non-root users as you like. Just an idea.

EDIT: Looking in the "Other Touchpad Development" Forum, the Linux projects appear much more "alpha" than CM9 is now. However Arch Linux looks promising.
