[Samsung Infuse 4G] DaveC1964:
No, it has nothing to do with color depth. If there were issues with that graphics would have banding due to lack of colors. No banding. Eliminating shadow detail isn't because of bitness of the display, it doesn't work that way, you would see that everywhere.

It is deliberate. I looked at the same photo on a Galaxy Note supposedly with an inferior screen (pentile) and all of the shadow detail was there. It is like Samsung decided to cut off all shades below a certain threshold, probably to "enhance" the contrast.

Except that the Galaxy Note shows this detail, and with an inferior screen tech (pentile). It isn't an OLEd issue, it is something they did. I would guess it needs a firmware/screen driver hack to fix, too bad that isn't likely.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GGXtreme:
Hmm. Maybe supercurio can look into it (although he seems busy enough as-is). I'd be truly impressed with this screen if the shadow detail was there, even with the white point well above 6500k. This is actually similar to running my TV with 0-255 output levels or RGB Full pixel format, but I doubt it's related.

Edit: The graphs supercurio posted show black clipping below 4% gray, but I'm not sure if this is the direct cause of this (or if it's even correctable).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DaveC1964:
It probably is the problem. I don't know why they clip anything. If the detail is there it should display it, period.

This is probably just another case of some marketing type at Sammy saying that this should be done to give things more contrast and "pop". It is idiotic however as it ruins some pictures/video.

It could be probably be fixed but it would have to be done low level, in the firmware somewhere.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GGXtreme:
supercurio mentioned that it could be fixed with a driver. One can always hope...
[HTC Amaze 4G] WorldIRC:
Hi Guys,

When I was on Rogers, the caller ID relayed the + in front of all numbers. As well, I save all my numbers in my phone book with the +.

Now that I am on Telus, the caller ID no longer relays the +. While my phone has no problem displaying the right information / contact, my car now won't show the right name because the number on my phone (no +) no longer matches what is in my car.

Is there an app that can force the + to display on inbound calls?

One thing I liked about wm6.5 was the panoramic photographs is there any app I can do this with Android?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xuix:
Try this one, it done the job Well

App Name : Photaf Panorama
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dr.Move:
I second the post above, that app is one of the best panorama apps out there, if not the best.

Some camera apps also have the ability to take wideshots and panoramas.

Note that photaf uses your Gsensor and compass, so if they're not working well on the build/ROM you use you'll have trouble shooting any photo.
[Android Apps and Games] AppWebsiteBroker:
I currently have quite a few apps on the Android ans IOS Markets. Some make money and some don't. If your anything like me you do not have the time to market every app in hopes that they will go viral.

Why not sell the source code to an internet marketer. We all know that there is no shortage of these professionals, but most internet marketers cannot develop apps.

The model like that of selling eBooks. I bet you less than half of the eBooks on Click Bank were actually written by the person who has it listed in Click Bank.

I have sold apps to a few businesses and individuals in the past, but I have to market my development services to them which takes time and money.

This lead to the idea of a marketplace for apps. They have auction sites for just about anything in the world but non for app source codes. A real auction where biders can drive up the price on one another for rights to the app source code.

I believe this model will be more profitable for independant or smal firm developers than simply marketing their development services.

1. No Advertising Costs

2. Multiple buyers for one product drives the price up

3. Much Larger target demographic

4. Increased downloads from increase number of app views

5. You don't have to sell unless you get the price you want (reserve price)

If you are a developer and looking to increase your revenue, you should strongly consider this model.

[Android Apps and Games] chupamobile:
Hi guys, have you ever considered to sell your source code on chupamobile.com?

It could help you to monetize from your works, and buy ready made components and source code to save time and money for your works.

Let me know what do you think about that.

hi

im runing HD20 v1.20 i was going to upgrade to v1.23b1 do i have to flash wm6.5 rom first or can i just upgrade

any help will be much appriciated

ps - does anybody know if there will be a 7740 build soon because if there is i will wait for that instead.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Anden1986:
Hi!

You dont have to downgrade first but you do need to unlock your sd-card and format it first. Then in magldr you select the option of erasing the sd mbr and flash the rom you want :-)

The next build from HD2O will be 7740 but if you cant wait there is another build from another user ready that runs on 7740... Heard it was pretty good!

More questions? Then you know the drill ;-)

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stevehd2:
Thanks for the reply. I am now up and running on the latest hd20 roms, i am only having a few problems

1, green tint on camera when usng flash.

2, battey indicator not correct, (restart seems to fix this)

3, cant download htc apps from market place, (just side loading instead)

4, zoon wont show empty space on phone, just comes up with 0.00 mg.

Do you recomend trying other roms (e.g back to the future)

All in all though i am very impressed with the hd20 roms concidering the hd2 is nearly 2 years old and comes with windows 6.5

[HTC Desire S] matthewsucks:
Hi people. I know this has been asked many times already, what is the difference between these two kernels?
[HTC Desire S] solidussnaku:
Right, the Tiamat kernel is undervolted, allows more cpu clock settings, and has more cpu governors. It also (in my case) super hadoukened my battery life up by a big margin in day to day usage. Compared to stock, I have around double the usage time before the battery hits zero. This alone has made the kernel worth keeping. Plus the team is focusing on HTC devices almost exclusively, and with the source code for the HTC desire s released just a couple of day ago, expect the kernel they make to become much better.

The Cyanogenmod one did have improvements over my stock one, but the margin wasn't that big according to my research.

Personally I'd got with Tiamat, simply because they will make even better kernels soon enough.:)

Hope this helps!

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
It seems Nexus S is still stuck on the old Gingerbread sound set.. this was annoying enough to release these zips that replace the annoyingly old sounds with the latest and greatest.

Here are recovery zips that removes the current /system/media/audio folder and installs the one from the Galaxy Nexus.

Download

PLEASE don't direct link my files.. linking to this post guarantees the latest files.

Ice Cream Sandwich

Thanks to pooley for the 2db boost version.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Esteway.619:
cool thank you sir.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] JohnCorleone:
I am curious now. I guess that shows what I know about the current sounds...didn't realize they were the same ones. Thanks

Thanks! :)

Yeah I didn't realize it either
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jm9843:
Does anyone know if kwiboo's ICS rom would benefit from this or does it already have the Galaxy Nexus sounds?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] question.com:
His build already has the sounds.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] question.com:
Don't know if its just me, but the sounds are extremely faint. I can barely hear the screen presses now.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
These are the 100% unmodified sounds from galaxy nexus. Some of them were made to be less annoying by Google that's all (eg screen press ticks).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mobilequest:
thank you man
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] resetreflectt:
Confirmed working on aosp's port (oICS).

Who knows, maybe someone can go through and edit the screen press and keyboard sounds and make them a bit louder.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nawktonson:
Can I install this using the stock bootloader or will I need ROM Manager? ROM Manager isn't functional on my phone anymore because superuser doesn't work.

Sent from my toilets
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
It is a unsigned zip so you need clockwork mod recovery.

But don't worry you can USB boot it via "fastboot boot " (of course with the cwm image in same folder as fastboot or fast boot in path).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nawktonson:
Thanks. Didn't mean to post in this thread. Thought this was still the Nexus S Official ICS thread lol.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
Not a prob :) ive been there my self at times LOL.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pooley:):
Damn ! I was myself posting my probs over there and was awaiting for an anwser there. Arf... lmao

So here is the deal. I used the recovery provided here. And use adb to flash your zip. But apparently (even if I got a good feedbacks and everytinhg went right on the process) they don't apply. It seems like I still got the GB.

whats wrong ?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
Interesting.. should flash with CWM since i'm on that exact version and it was working for me at time of posting. There is one other thing to try... I got a pre-rooted with gnexus sounds and hsdpa systemui that may work as well.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20384812&postcount=661
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pooley:):
Ok, my actual ICS is the one from here (google server I guess).

But maybe I'm doing it the wrong way. IDK.

here is how it goes:

in cmd windows prompt

c:\Android\android-sdk\tools>adb devices

List of devices attached

blablabla device

OK

c:\Android\android-sdk\tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery5020.img

sending 'recovery' <4136KB>

OKAY [ 0.546s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [0.515s]

finished. total time: 1.061s

OK

into bootlader I choose recovery then press power :

boot into recovery 5.0.2.0.

- wipe Dalvik/cache

- install zip from SD Card

- choose a zip to apply

gnex-sounds.zip (renamed your zip)

then reply:

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

Updating system sounds...

Deleting current sound set...

Installing Galaxy Nexus sound set...

Install from sdcard complete.

- ***** go back *****

- reboot system now.

... Then on the phone in settings audio I still got my current sound set (set up earlier).

but I can also do it the old ways (extract sounds from your zip and replace the set in the ics.zip I'll flash over...).

But I got to find out what's wrong. In the ICS Official release thread we were talking about apparently you can flash the recovery permanently isn't it ? Mine is not accessible the next try I made (ADB/USB out) mean I get back to the stock recovery (with the poor green droid down, belly opened ! lol).

Another (secondary) question : what's wrong with superuser ? My apps can't be allowed since apparently my phone is not recognized as rooted ! (Just to ensure I've performed a "fastboot oem unlock" but the reply was explicit : "already unlocked !". I don't get it right here...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
1. Odd that the sounds wont flash

2. ChainsDD updated Superuser/su for 4.0.3

3. yep a file in stock rom rewrites stock recovery at bootup

Over all if you give my custom rooted 4.0.3 stock a shot that would solve the sounds issue, wouldnt rewrite recovery on boot, has working root and as bonus has H icon.

I personally went that method cause it got me best of all options in one flash :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pooley:):
Seems like I cannot flash your ICS. I flash then boot into recovery (5.0.2.3) and installation has been aborted.

I don't know what to do with it ...

FYI :

bootloader version : I9020XXKL1

Baseband version : I9020XXKI1

Lock state - Unlocked
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
Interesting.. according to cwm site latest is 5.0.2.0 is that a modded version? If so try using official build of cwm.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pooley:):

As requested in your thread, I've raised by +2dB each one of the Gnex sounds set.

Also ill check out your custom mod sometime LOL
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pooley:):
No problem. Have fun with it :) I'm not necessarily looking for credits, just want to help the way I can. If it's not enough loud I can raise the dB.

I'm sure you'll love the custom ones ; )

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
I apologize in advance if this has already been answered. Whether it has or has not been answered, i recommend adding your answer to the 1st post, within your description:

Does the +2db mod cover only the ICS Audio Sounds or ALL audio across the board, including mp3s or other audio files not included within Android 4.0 aka Ice Cream Sandwich???
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pooley:):
The +2dB has been applied to all the sounds contained in the zip files provided in the 1st post. (Alarm, notif, ringtones and UI).

mine sounds like stock GB... the bleep bleep bleep bleep in the video is the GS... when i was running Pete's rom, i had that sound... when i flashed over to aosp's rom, i lost that sound and it went to the regular camera sound... either this file didn't include that GS-camera sound or it didn't install on my phone :(

The 2db boost one wasn't zipped up properly. If you extract it, navigate to the /system and /META-INF folders, select both of them then zip those up you can flash your newly created zip in recovery
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] t3ej4y:
Can I clarify, does anyone know if the stock Nexus S ICS OTA contains the gnexus sounds? Specifically I flashed this rom which is a repackage of the NS ICS OTA, but I'm not that sure if the sounds are the gnexus sounds...

Any confirmation is very much appreciated!

really?? i was running Pete's ICS on my phone for a bit and it came with these sounds too... from what i understand, his rom was build from NS3G OTA source and he doesn't modify it other than making it work on the NS4G...

either way, thanks for the sounds :cool:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Esteway.619:
If u can't flash it just unzip it and use root explore and put the media folder in the zip under system and replace the old media file. Reboot and all set.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] HateMeILoveIt:
Weird. I had no problems. What ROM are you running? Did you wipe cache/dalvik?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] eramsey:
I tried flashing the +2db version from cw and mine failed too.

Tried replacing the media audio file using root explorer and keep getting error that system is read only. Can paste anywhere else just not in system folder.

You can however put the files on the root of your Sd in a folder called media. gets the job done for your alarms, notifications, and ringtones but not the system sounds.

Probably will try flashing the other zip (not +2db) but would really like to have three louder one. Anyone know how to push this through Adb?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kibmcz:
Will fix the zip.. its a known issue.

Edit: Fixed
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jam10238:
Installed these from the zip in recovery to boost the volume of the notifications on my galaxy nexus. Definitely much louder now but for some reason I am seeing 3 listings for each notification in the settings - sound - phone ringtone or anywhere notifications are listed. So now instead of one listing for each ringtone I have three with the same name. I'm running 0.3.8 gummynex rom.

Any ideas on how to resolve these duplicated entries? There is only one ringtone file in the system media audio folders for each one so I'm not sure why they are being listed multiple times.

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 PM ----------

Ha, I'm an idiot. I had extracted the zip in the sdcard download location so there actually were multiple ringtones across the file system. I removed the extracted folder and then cleared data in settings-apps-media manager. After a reboot I now have the correct amount of ringtones listed.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] denimjunkie82:
My lock/unlock sounds are still the gingerbread sounds. Seems like they've been like that for all ICS ROMs I've used so far. Is there something else up with my phone, or is everyone else experiencing this too?

Since i used the sounds direct from a Galaxy Nexus offical rom it seems Google decided to keep those the same as before.

Actually the sounds that pure aosp ship with are the oss sounds. The sound sets that come with either Nexus S or Galaxy Nexus were designed to be device exclusive but when did that stop us ;).

So I was thinking on the way home, how great the forums have gotten lately. For while there it got slow and really negative as everyone said the good dev work had left. But there are some really great people still here working hard on a great phone.

With that I want to say thanks to people like bedwaa, jordanelliott, bigfau, entropy, dman, supercurio, linuxbozo, dagr8 (and I am sure others that i am forgetting) that have made these last few weeks fun. I am sure there are more to come.

Also thanks to those who try and help others without flaming and contribute nicely to making more development. I pledge to continue helping when I can.

So without that, thanks, I love my phone and can do more with it than most of my dumbfounded friends and family. Makes me feel smart (that's a first).

Not sure if anyone else has used this, but i have found that with gtabcomb 3.3 i dont have the SoD issue when unplugging and pluggin in my charger. meaning that i can wake my gtab by plugging in the charger and then unplugging it. I leave my charger plugged in at my desk so im not sure how convenient this would be for someone else.

So far I have been able to completely circumvent SoD with this, so i was just wondering what other people think, and if this works for them. Like i said im using gtabcomb 3.3(not the refresh)so if anyone would like to try this with any other roms that would be cool too. thanks.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
This is not a reliable solution--in fact, waking up when the charger is plugged could be considered a bug. A better solution would be to have HC ROMs wake up using the volume keys like it is possible with GB ROMs.
