[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arpit85:
Last night i received a mysterious OTA update notification on my R800i in the app update centre -showing system update available version 4.0.2.A.0.42 but i was already on stock rom with the same version of firmware even pc companion showed me the same update message..the only modification i have done with my stock rom was Root and Doom's kernel... That was the only reason that i received system update notification ???

Screenshot attached.....

Wrong section dude. Ask this again over in the Q&A section. Not sure if you noticed but this is the android development section, keyword DEVELOPMENT! What your asking is a question
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
wrong section!

But PC companion keeps doing the same thing to me when i plug my phone in. Offering me an update to the FW i already have.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keytor69:
Doomlord changed the Id string in his kernel so your phone still thinks an update is available.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
remove update centre from system apps and you will no longer recieve update messages.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chris Ga:
I have noticed there is an updated firmware for almost all the notes except the Plus version of the polish model.

Can I easily update to the non-braded polish firmware without rooting the phone and losing all my data? I want to get on-track to receive update from samsung not plus (using OTA or Kies).

Will I be less likely to receive updates as I have the Plus version? I feel like my gNote has been left out of all the fun.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] stantheboss:
You have to root your SGN first, and than flash KK9 (PL language included) firmware for instance. No need to wipe user/system data.

Did the above myself, my Note is also from PL Plus carrier.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chris Ga:
Out of all the options what did you use to root the phone?

Also did you then just use Odin to flash the new firmware?

CWN used ?

Starting from the line:

-----------------------------------------Forget all Above and follow simple Step below------------------------------

2. I Want ROOT + CWM

Using PC:

Download corresponding to your stock CF modded kernel, follow the instructions. After that you'll end up with a rooted SGN, and yes the kernel includes CWM.

Using mobile odin pro from the market:

(can also be done directly from the CWM recovery, but not sure whether you gonna get the flashing counter +1)

Flash KK9 or whatever kernel you prefer.

Hope that helps, cheers.

I am trying to find a way to get some basic toggles in the pulldown notification bar area, similar to what you would have on the Droid Charge.

These pictures I've attached show an example of what I am looking for.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] the_kwa:
All bionic ROMs I've seen (Liberty, Th3ory and Eclipse) have this feature.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tarheel23:
That is good to know. I think it is time to go that route. None of the apps I have tried give me what I am after.

Do any of the ROMS address the signal drop issue, or help improve it at all?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] willbur73:
So far I have had the same signal issues on stock, liberty and the th3ory roms. I believe it is more a Verizon issue with the 4g phones. Sucks.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Versatile1:
I would go to the 5.7.893 update for the signal issues and if you don't want a ROM you can run stock deodexed and one of DroidJunk's mods I'm running Eclipse myself but it is really up to you as they are all good
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tarheel23:
Thanks for all the input guys. Very much appreciated.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tivo7:
bignadad's BigDX themes for stock 5.5.886 and 5.5.893 have this built in.

DroidJunk from MyDroidWorld.com has a mod zip with just this mod without any other theme updates.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tarheel23:
Good deal.... now that I am rooted, I will try out some of these options. Awesome!

CONFIRMED: This bionic bootanimation works for all our RAZR's.

INSTRUCTIONS

Use Root Explorer

Copy bootanimation.zip & droidhd.ogg to system/media

Change permissions to rw-r--r--

Reboot & Enjoy!

Credits to kraziekc for the original thread, I only tested and confirmed this file works on our RAZR's.

[Motorola Photon 4G] rsjc741:
I'm having a lot of trouble deleting install-recovery.sh. As many of you know, this resets the Android recovery, flashing the stock recovery over the Custom CWM-based recovery that I had. I'm trying to install Ubuntop.

I very well know I could simply install it once, install ubuntop, and go along on my merry way, but I need CWM for piece of mind, access to my backup, etc.

According to Romracer's post:

[quote user=mrinehart93]The system runs /system/etc/install-recovery.sh on boot with the stock rom. On boot it checks the recovery partition for some update and with CWM installed decides to reflash the stock recovery over it.

Rename or delete the file and the CWM should stick.[/quote]

I've tried Terminal Emulator with root access, a root file explorer, everything. Unless theirs some hidden ADB method.

I also know I could get rid of this problem by installing a custom ROM.

However, I'm not so in tune with all the ROMs and kernels like I was with my EVO.

Any type of solution that doesn't involve me changing my stock ROM and kernel is appreciated.

If their isn't a solution, point me towards a nice deodex'd ROM. Please no undervolting/overvolting/OC'd stuff. Thanks~

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nfsking2:
When a call is coming, the screen will be lighted up, but will not be unlocked. If I pick up the call by pressing the answer button on the bluetooth headset, the screen will be unlocked, and the proximity sensor will start working to prevent the screen to be turned on during the call.

The problem is, after hanging up the call by bluetooth headset, the proximity sensor stop working, the screen will be lighted up instead of turning off automatically, and it will stay in the dial interface. If the phone is in my jeans' pocket, the dial button will be pressed accidentally.

I remember the iPhone will turn off the screen automatically after picking up the call by bluetooth headset. Is there any solution or advice for this annoying problem?

[Acer Iconia A500] a1qwyx20:
I just bought a Gateway TAB TP a60, basically the same as the acer Iconia, I want to know can I follow all the standard steps for the Acer Iconia to root etc?

Also can I use swype and some other handwritting programs on it if I get the APK files, or do I need to root first?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Basically, the TP a60 is just a rebranded A500, with the gateway logo instead of Acer. But all the hardware is the same.

Of course one can't "promise" the steps are the same, but, before you update your android version, and I don't advise you to, I would run the iconia root just to see if it works.

Your a60 should have shipped with version 3.1, which is what you should keep (will make the root process easier).

And then, if the root was successful, I would use the AcerRecovery from the Market, and see if you can flash the custom recovery package. It will probably either work, or not. If it doesn't work, or if something messes up, you can always do the master reset (pinhole).

But, you do this at your own risk, as do all of us. So if something goes wrong, well, we're not responsible. Everybody who builds roms, kernels and root processes will tell you the same ;)

Generally, as a number 1 rule, you never want to install a recovery or Rom/Kernel, that is not specifically for your device. However, there are a couple of exceptions.

Good luck, and let us know how it turns out.
[Acer Iconia A500] irishmoe:
It should work fine. If you go to settings and check about tablet, you may see that the device is called a500! If not I wouldn't worry. I have a gateway and I've flashed pretty much every rom kernel combination there is for an a500:)

Just do a nandroid backup beforehand and you can always restore if something doesn't work the way it should.
[Acer Iconia A500] irishmoe:
I'm on taboonay 2.2 using richardtrips 3.7 kernel, which is pretty good and stable. Thor's rom is very smooth and fast but I had issues with site images not loading. Check out the dev threads and you'll get a better idea of what you can get.

[MENTION=3887557]Moscow Desire[/MENTION], didn't civato have a gateway at some point, I'm sure he had a Rom for it back in the day???
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
As a matter of fact he did come to think of it. But I believed he lost a hard drive about a year ago, and probably lost everything.

All Gateway did was take an A500, rebrand it, and tossed in a couple stupid Gateway specific apps.

A standard ROM should install fine though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordangeransky:
Alright, so this is my first time posting as I can usually find my questions in another thread... Haven't been able to find this one however.

So I rooted my phone earlier today and have been trying to get the Clockwork Recover Mod on it. I followed a tutorial and made a bad mistake... It seems I downloaded a CF-root made for the i9000 as opposed to the i9000m. Now when my phone tries to boot, it cycles between displaying the start-up screen for each, but it never boots. I can still access download mode, which I understand means I can still change it... But what am I supposed to do?

Further info: Running Android 2.3.3 on Bell.

Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adslee:
Ditch the i9000m stock rom (which is UGKG3 2.3.3, the one you're probably using) and flash JVT (2.3.5) stock rom, then flash CF-root for JVT. The Bell i9000m will run on the International i9000 firmware and this should get you out of the bootloop.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordangeransky:
I hate to sound super uninformed, but how should I go about doing that? Where do I get the stock rom for 2.3.5?

Thanks so much for the help though, I might just need a few extra steps to help get me there...

Would I just use this?

Follow the instructions on here. Use the JVT 2.3.5 PDA, KG3 modem, and csc...its the canadian one. And you might as well repartion with 512 pit. All this can be downloaded on the link above. After you do all that you will have the latest gingerbread firmware. Now you can root with a JVT kernal like semaphore or CF root. There are also a bunch of custom roms you can use on JVT not much if anything for I9000m . The only thing you need from I9000M is the modem and csc....otherwise your cell coverage will suck. I assume you already have odin, if not its available on the above link aswell.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgsshedden:
good advice. One other idea, since CF root tripped you up the first time, reduce your anxiety level and root using Hardcore's kernel for JVT or something similar -- one that is robust and also has good step by step instructions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mackendw:
Question on which files to pull from the site for kernels, modem and csc files...

I have a Bell Samsung Galaxy S I9000M also and am trying to install the Clockworkmod 2.5 hardcore kernel also and got into this boot loop...fortunately, I had the kg3root.tar with the kernel in it to re-flash and get operational again.

For us newbies, perhaps you could direct us to the specific set of files that we need to flash (with links to them) and the instructions to apply them.

I think to have a rooted gingerbread with clockworkmod recovery functional...at this point the ICS update should be able to be done using the instructions on the web. (hopefully) :)

thx.

Here is to start some development interest in the P1010 wifi only model of the GT. There is a ton of work for the 1000's and little love for the wifi only version. There are a lot of users with this tablet due to its price at this point and its only fair that there is even development throughout the models. Otherwise its just as bad as Samsung not supporting it.

I will start with saying that I will gladly contribute $10 towards the cause.

Updates will come with each users post/contribution.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheATHEiST:
Well firstly, a actual dev who is interested in ICS and who has a castrated version of the device needs to be involved and I dont think neither exist.

Second, It is in absolutely no way shape or form anything like Samsung not updating. This is a dev forum and nobody here is under any sort of obligation to update any device, devs here are members of public who share development they have done on their devices.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] r_3:

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] colemab:
The P1010 runs the OMAP3630 system on a chip but the 3630, 3621 and 3622 have that same PowerVR SGX530 graphics chip. And of course, all of the listed OMAP SOC models have the same ARMv7 Cortex-A8.

I have also learned that the droid X has that same that same PowerVR SGX530 graphics chip.

Both the nook color and the droid X have GB builds.

So this begs the question, why can't we modify a nook color or droid X GB build for the P1010? I ask because the p1010 should have the same hardware minus a cell modem, sim slot, or HID device. So shouldn't it be a matter of removing software from the build?

I know it isn't ICS but GB would be a step in the right direction.

I am in for 20$ for a ICS or GB build. Perhaps if we get enough cash, we can get a dev a refurbished P1010 to work with .... just a thought.

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:47 PM ----------

Any guides or information on how previous ports were started? I ask so that if a P1010 owner wanted to start down this path they could have a reference.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alexgogan:
There was start on this when getting honeycomb on the device then I was going to send a dev a p1010 once it was done on the p1000 to get things moving, but to be honest at this stage my son my spare one now and uses it to watch his movies (http://youtu.be/chT6cV3HuDU) and plays angry birds ... which is as much as this device is worth now. Do not think I will trust Sammy again in the hardware front!

If a dev is willing to start again would be willing to help. That or will wait till my lad learns how to code >:¬}
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Reb0rn:
Honestly it isnt samsungs fault... they made a bastardized version of the p1000 stripping the 3G sim slot. And made it cheaper then the big bro p1000.

You as a costumer made the bad choise im afraid... a tab without 3G option is... wrong.

Besides. Usually before i buy a phone or tab i actually check out the level of development shown in the threads here.

When samsung advertises the products the exact same way and don't list the soc specs on their website, you blame the consumer? Samsung also blocks reviews on its website that mention other products - even samsung products. This is a clear case of false advertising by samsung. Hell they even mention the front facing camera is perfect for video conferencing when android 2.2 doesn't even support it. The only way you can find out the products are different on the samsung website is to try and but the hdmi dock and see it isn't supported. Absent a GB update for it, the p1010 will be my last samsung product. They have dropped support for the product in less than 9 months with no updates and misrepresent the hardware.

I love the 7 inch size but not the samsung BS. My next tablet might be a 10 inch size but probably won't be a samsung.

Most people have routed phones with wifi tehering and don't want another data plan.

Or they use the tablet on wifi at home.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Freek20010:
So paying 200 for P1010 wouldn't be worth it cause it don’t have 3G Sim slot Least that what I’m getting as I found the white edition it states it supports 3G.

I guess from this thread everyone saying it don't have 3G Sim slot I just wanted to use Tmobile Sim card not as much I can live with just WIFI as I don’t want to pay extra fees for 4G is pricey.

Does P1010 Support Honeycomb Rom they have floating around or Gingerbread or would I be best to pay extra 60-70 dollars for P1000 version.
