[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laual:
Hi all,

I'm not sure where I should post this so I've opted for Q&A, I've noticed an unusual battery drain on CM7 from the camera (as you can see in the screenshots attached). I don't know if I'm reading it right but apparently my camera would have used 22% of the battery running 3 sec?

I hope I'm wrong but if not, could someone explain how I can fix this issue? Run a nightly build?

View attachment 808277The MOST TOUGHEST Lock Pattern

Actually I tried Ten times to draw it.

View attachment 808278

View attachment 808281Tricky Patterns. Even U Can't find where is The Starting Point.

Create some Tricky Patterns»

For a Good pattern Start through middle or centermost circle.

Draw mostly Horizontal Vertical lines if your pattern is within 5-7 Circles(dots). If want more harder, then mix it with x-cross lines.

Either way You could make much secure and powerful patterns.

Do Hard Practice before deploying your patterns :-)

Please DONT Post your Patterns here, else your security may get breached. But others can get benefit by locking there scre

great share mate I loved the first one.

The first one wouldn't be the safest to use, its actually not all that complicated. The other two are awesome though. I like the third especially

It depends on the brain and usage. Just scan(draw) a tough one and lock it in memory. Then change as u need after a good days/months. Fine.

How secure are android devices with PIN or pattern locks?

I use a pattern lock with four dotts but can someone break that without knowing my pattern or without trying (holding my device and trying) different patterns?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
Has anyone tried to flash back to their old froyo rom then update to the new gb version? Itried but no go it says that I have the lates version it. It must be picking up on something deep in the hardware maybe because of the baseband anyone got any ideas ?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
You cannot do it as the tool checks the baseband to see what update to give you. If you have the new baseband no update for you via the updater.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Dunno. The updater on the PC told me it could update my phone when I checked with Tsugi installed. Was afraid to actually let it run though as i did not want to risk creating a brick.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
As stated, does not matter which rom you have, it looks at the baseband. If you already have the July baseband it will not resend the update. You can not change the baseband by flashing a rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Odd. I have July baseband, and it scanned the phone and said that it had a newer version to install, when I stopped it because I did not want a brick. I am not saying that they are actually pushing a newer version... I'm saying maybe the update tool itself has changed and/or is willing to update the Rom based on different criteria - perhaps since it does not recognize the L95G firmware which is what I'm using, for example?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
Yes the L95G would have a different Baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Custom roms for the G2X don't touch the baseband, so even if thats true its a moot point.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
The actual L95G device, which has never been released, does have a different baseband. But P999 roms based on the L95G rom have whatever baseband that was on the phone when the rom was flashed. Either March or July baseband.

[Nook Touch General] Gogolo2:
Hi

I rootet my new touch with TouchNooter, black screen showed up, removed sd card, now it hangs at start up (floating points never stop floating)....:(

What could be the reason? How to proceed. I already tried rooting again, same result.

Thanks for your help.

Olivier
[Nook Touch General] Gogolo2:
Ok, I did a hard reset (8 boots) and am now in what I think could be the rooted touch: Android GUI and I see apps like youtube. But:

When I go to settings I get only the settings of nook, not the android ones: "application" is not there.

And: is it possible to install astro filemanager (or similar) without market running?

Thanks for a hint here.

Olivier

edit: I think I rooted it successfully now, but I cannot access the android settings..... What I am doing wrong. When I go to home/settings it always shows: Device Info/Wireless/Screen/Time/Reader/Shop/Social/Search. Where do I find the android settings?? Im getting crazy about this :-(

edit2: Ok, For the noobs like me: You can find a lot of settings in nookcolorsettings. If you encounter problems rooting a new simple touch, do a hard reset, update to 1.1 and root again. You can install apk with adb. Search for the nook touch usb drivers (they only installed after several attempts).

It works now!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klub242:
On my Galaxy Tab 10 with V5 of In Paris rom, I'm having lots of lag problems with Netflix. I usually use it about one session per day before bed, and it at the start of each I have to restart my tab or I end up with a terrible framerate and out of sync audio/video. Then after restarting, every few minutes the framerate will drop for a couple of seconds, which I think is whenever there's a lot of change on screen, such as the camera panning fast.

Yes, I used a clean install of the rom plus Titanium Backup to restore on user apps/data. Is this normal?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
I currently have ICS theme installed via flash.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
Simple... restore your backup. You do have a backup right? I mean everyone takes a backup before they flash don't they? Umm, maybe not everyone.

Nevermind, if you don't have one, just reflash your original ROM, or push the relevant files which were over-written by the theme using ADB or a file explorer with root permissions.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
Nope...I don't have my original ROM, however...any UK stock theme will do to be honest because ICS is pretty noticable, I just need a link to a Uk stock theme for the Galaxy note or even Android 2.3.6 as I have updated my firmware for my phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
KKA, or which version exactly?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
The rom is...

Baseband version: N7000XXKK5

Build number: GINGERBREAD.XXKKA
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
Another option would be to re-flash my current rom (updated firmware) however...the phone doesn't allow that, unless I can find one from somewhere.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
I am doing this all because of...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20067262#post20067262

First day i get my phone and the screen plays up, never ever had this problem before with any phone I have got, only this one, unlucky I guess.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
Cool,

Did you by any chance root using Chainfire's method? If you did, just use the CWM app that comes supplied when you flash his kernel to flash the original KKA firmware (the one you are using). It is non-wipe and will be rooted by his app.

To download the KKA firmware, click here. Sign in to download.

Then read Chainfire's instructions about flashing firmware using the CWM app VERY CAREFULLY in his thread here. Read the first few posts... and then read them again ;)

Unfortunately I am not at work and don't have unmodified system apks to provide you with a flashable zip to replace the theme.

Alternative to the above... ask around and see if anyone has unmodified apks from KKA which you can flash. You will need all of the files which were contained in the themed zip you used.

EDIT: About those dark lines, are you sure it's not colour banding. All Note users get them (they are often feint). Most Note users won't admit to it though ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
I used 'The Easy rooting Toolkit' method, will have a look at replacing files in the theme, btw...I can look in the ICS rom and replace the exact same files from the KKA ROM (the link you provided), so is that the best idea?...to me that sound easy and then I would just need to flash it from CMW :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] predator21:
true it will work
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
Not quite that simple.

To do that you will need to unpack the .img files contained in the zip that I linked to, which is a bit of a nightmare if you aren't sure what you are doing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
They can only be seen in the dark and when the phone has a very dark background with the backlight lit, they aren't straight lines, they start from the top right hand corner and each is about 3cm long, I have 3 lines showing at the moment. Also...I have noticed a dozen little dots in the same condition (dark background and in the dark), hope that helps what the problem may be :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
Bah! Annoying.

In that case I would go back to stock (making sure your flash counter says zero after) and return it. I'm a fussy SOB and that would annoy me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
I don't have the stock ROM though, only the update (firmware)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
How do I know how much the counter is?...is that the number at the end of the 'Kernel version'? Btw...does a theme flash count add to the counter?...because I have #2 on mine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
I know. That is why I suggested using Chainfire's rooted kernel and CWM app. It allows you to flash and root a stock firmware, without increasing the flash count.

If you boot into download mode you can see your flash count.

No, flashing a theme doesn't increase the count... basically what does is flashing a non-stock kernel (except Chainfire's) via ODIN.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
To be honest...I have no idea what to do in regards to using this Chainfire thing, if it was CWM then I wouldn't have a problem with flashing, if you can provide links to help me that would be great, thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
Btw...I really appreciate the help, its nice to know someone cares that my phone is playing up (the screen)...its very hard to swallow the thought that i'm in this situation and I could be stuck with this phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
To make life easy for you. Why not flash the firmware using ODIN which will take you back to stock.

You can then either re-root, or return the device :)

I suggest you find KJ4 from that site I linked to, as we know it can be rooted without any issues. You can always update if you want to keep the Note.

I strongly recommend that you root using Chainfire's method if/when you re-root. It will prevent your flash count increasing and also allows you to flash firmwares from the device without ODIN etc :)

Just have a read of his thread that I linked to. Read the first few posts very carefully a few times until you get the hang of it. It is very simple, it just sounds complicated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SealsNavie:
Thanks, I shall give that a go :)

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoffmas:
there is no mod for virtuous affinity to change to landscape mode. the only sense 3.0+ rom i know that switch homescreen orientation to landscape is virtuous doubleshot or virtuous sense 2.0 (= sense 2.1):

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
There was also a custom ROM based on the Flyer ROM, which has rotating Rosie (Sense), but it was pretty alpha, and lots of bugs, and long ago abandoned.

But yeah, Affinity and many other Sense ROMs lack the components needed for rotating Rosie. HTC only has rotating Rosie for phones with landscape hardware keyboards (such as Doubleshot), and tablets.

I meant virtuous sense..haha. and for the skins..how do I install them to the htc hub? Like the ones I dl from the sites on here..thanks for all ur help :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoffmas:
you don´t need to flash the kernel by itself, because it´s part of the rom (you only have to flash a kernel if you want to use a different one)

download the zip file and flash it through recovery... (don´t forget to wipe before flashing)

i´m not sure what you mean with skins... some skins are included in the rom, you can choose them under the personlize menu, or you can download skins from htc hub.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
No, the components are not in the kernel. You would have to flash the Doubleshot ROM or Virtuous Sense ROM.

An alternative is that you can use a alternate launcher ("lanucher" is the homescreen and app drawer), such as GO, ADW, Launcher Pro (all available on the Market). You would lose the Sense widgets, but I think most 3rd party launchers have landscape mode and will auto-rotate. They are also much more customizable.

A while ago my son flashed his Galaxy S with some S II look-alike ROM, and in the process apparently managed to kill Recovery:

The phone will no longer boot into recovery, either with Home-VolumeUp-Power or from the Power menu or from Rom Manager.

It simply hangs at the initial "Galaxy S" display forever (or rather, until the battery is drained).

It will still boot into Download Mode or boot up normally into the current ROM, but no recovery.

Also, factory reset (from Settings->Privacy) does not work.

Any suggestions on how to restore recovery, or a recent Odin-compatible image (most of the current images seem to want CWM)?

Thanks,
