Hello,

I want to delete all files and folders on the internal file system.

There are a lot of folders from app I have just tested and uninstalled.

The "wipe data / factory reset" option does not delete the files - only

the user settings.

Compared to a computer I want to do a "format c:" ... do you know what I mean?

Thanks...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Le Vagabond:
Hello,

I'm looking for some info on the things I should check before flashing a kernel on my Note...

what's important ?

what versions are compatible ?

how do you find out ?

it's a french phone with the following characteristics :

Baseband : BUKJ1

Kernel : KJA

Firmware : Gingerbread 2.3.5 stock

I'd appreciate a "universal" answer or link to some info on this, so I can see for myself next time I have a choice to make on this, or at least a tip on which CF kernel I'm supposed to flash to avoid bricking it :)

thanks !

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sangeet.003:
Even I have the question!

Not Wrong Section!

What if I install another Kernel on my Note?

My current Stock kernel is KK3 what if I installed another one like the one of the following?

KJ1, KJ4, KJ6/KJ7, KK1/KK2/KK3/KK4, KKA, KK9

Would it brick? OR Just do crazy stuffs like Network incompatibilities, H/W Module errors?

Would it Still Work?

And are kernels just Different coz they are from devices of different locations?

Need Help on this !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Le Vagabond:
I stumbled upon some short info in a reply, and tried it a few times myself.

so, baseline is that your kernel MUST match your ROM version, or closest possible, as long as you do not yet have a custom recovery installed

(because if you mess things up then it's -best case- download mode and odin flash).

I was on KJA, flashed a KJ1 kernel and had a few problems at boot but nothing that prevented me from using the system.

(nb : numbering system is 1-9 then A-Z, so KJ1 is 9 versions away from KJA, but a lot more away from KK1)

when you have a rooted, recovery'ed kernel, you can flash an entire ROM at once, which usually have matching kernel and system versions.

in this case, you have no problem since both are made for each other.

I may be wrong but it seems to work that way.

in your case I'd flash any kernel in the KK# series (preferably KK3 since it's the closest one to your original kernel), but only if you plan on flashing a rom afterwards.

it's useless if you don't, anyway.

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] hebosto:
Guys, how to automatically turn off the running application?

I feel very upset because my application like Maps, Market, Gmail, etc, always automatically running without my permission.

Because of that, i always manually kill that apps with Task Killer. But, not much later, it was running again!!!! Please help me guys, How to automatically turn off the apps? and never running again without my permission
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
u dont have to close those apps...doing so would result in wasted battery life as the app/process would start again on its own...

using task killers is NOT AT ALL advisable on android 2.2+, because android has ram management built in...

kill (better if u uninstall) only rogue apps, like i had this wallpaper app which used to constantly start by itself, and i was better off unistalling it....rather than killing it every time it started...

and its not advisable to uninstall google apps like gmail and maps, and these will keep running passively in the background...and they are harmless...so no reason to worry about them....
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] acamogh:
try using titanium backup...freeze the apps you dont want to run(works only on titanium backup premium...

i think this might help
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] hebosto:
but, it can "eat" my ram performance right?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
i didnt get you properly....ram performance on android (based on linux) is different than what it is on windows...

here ram in use is not neccessarily bad, because it manages ram differently....if any app actively requires ram, then android closes passive apps itself.....

and if ur phone feels laggy, then its because an app/process is actively using cpu, rather than ram...if you understand what i mean....

So I'm on MIui and for the past 4 weeks I've been receiving approx 1 "spam" message a week which appears in the header of my screen.

It's a little bit annoying, and obviously, I'd like to get rid of them given a choice.

I've attached a screenshot showing the issue.

Is there any advice on how I can stop this spam message being received in the future please?

A cursory google search and an xda search has revealed no obvious answers :(

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD General] ponk2k:
Looks like you have downloaded an app with airpush advertising, at least I think its called airpush anyway.

There is an app you can download that will tell you which app is the culprit or alternatively there is an opt out app that you can download.

I had the same problem after downloading a youtube downloader so I know how annoying it is

I'll check it up and get back to you.

Thanks ponk2k for giving me the spark I needed to potentially solve this case.
[Desire HD General] ponk2k:
Yep, it is airpush. You can get either airpush detector or add-on detector in the market which will show you which app is causing the notification bar spam aand give you the option of deleting it or else google airpush opt out to keep the app but rid yourself of the ads
[Desire HD General] preacher65:
I expect you've already found it, but I used this app to find the culprit when I had airpush problems:

[Nexus S Android Development] eaglerazor123:
Hi Guys :)

Ever Wanted Bravia Engine on Nexus S? ;) Well,here it is!!

Sony Bravia Engine provides HQ IMAGE & MOVIE Quality Improvements!

it was first ported to the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 by zdzihu,So credits goes to him. :)

Benefits

It's A Post-Processing Engine, so you can view the improvements only on your phone's screen.

Download Link: http://www.multiupload.com/PA8RGMHYPQ

Not Flashable

Requirements

Android Gingerbread 2.3.x

At least 5MB free on /system

Extract the two files inside the Downloaded file (be_movie & be_photo) and place it in

/system/etc

Now you need to edit the build.prop of your ROM

--> so Open /system/build.prop and add

#Sony Bravia Engine Service
ro.service.swiqi.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi.enable=1

That's done, Now Save the file.

Now here is the tricky part a.k.a setting the correct permissions of the files!! :cool:

Here are the file permissions:

set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/system/etc/be_movie");
set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/system/etc/be_photo");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/build.prop");

So that means,

Permissions should be

Reminder the permissions are the key here if you don't use this it wont work!

be_movie- 0755

be_photo- 0755

build.prop- 0644

OR

u can use terminal emulator and execute:

su
busybox chmod 0755 /system/etc/be_photo
busybox chmod 0755 /system/etc/be_movie
busybox chown 0.0 /system/etc/be_photo
busybox chown 0.0 /system/etc/be_movie

U will never see a huge difference!! ;) But indeed it Does . It works only on Stock Gallery & Video app. Diff can be seen at full brightness!! ;)

Works Pretty fine on Nexus & GS2. :)

That's it!

NOW REBOOT AND ENJOY!

Samples in 2nd post ;)

The work zdzihu has done for X10 is absolutely brilliant to say the least. Without him so many of the amazing things that have happened to the X10 would have.

Now, in my opinion the Bravia engine is a load of crap. Technically it might be a masterpiece by zdzihu, but in real life it offers no improvement at all.

I mean, can anyone see any difference? I certainly couldn't then and still cant.

Yes, there's a little difference in color rendering and contrast. Without the hack colors are close to reality, with the hack colors are more "intense", but further from reality. Look at the clouds, they're more yellow. The grass is more green, etc... Not flagrant but noticeable. This is kind of HDR rendering we can see since a few years in photography.
[Nexus S Android Development] raulillo88:
Ok but there are necesary knows if that phone had voodoo drivers or not cause I think the result will be similar

[Nexus S Android Development] gamin92:
Since voodoo change color rendering, results shouldn't be the same having voodoo enable or not, even if both hacks doesn't adjust settings of the same thing. Anyway, I'm a 9023 user, so voodoo doesn't apply to my phone.

I've seen a number of people post this throughout the XDA forums... as has been noted in GadgetCheck's thread in the SGS2 development forums, while folks are loading the modules there is no service to utilize them, which is Sony Erickson proprietary... Even on AOSP ROMs on the SE phones, it can't be enabled... just on SE ROMs on SE ONLY hardware that it is already built for (though possibly not enabled, hence how this "hack" can work on certain SE phones!).

Too many "developers" have been tossing this into their ROMs with no idea or understanding of whether it works or not. :rolleyes:
[Nexus S Android Development] t3ej4y:
FYI, you can view photos taken by a third-party app (vignette etc) in stock gallery, and thus see the differences.

---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ----------

Not true, it has been ported to X10 miui roms before. From what I understand from X10 recognized dev zdzihu's explanation of it, the BE is a set of custom libraries that process images and video using extra techniques (similar to applying filters after you have taken a photo) and requires NO EXTRA HARDWARE to run. The name 'Bravia ENGINE' is kind of a gimmick in the sense that the engine isn't a physical sort of engine but rather a set of libraries. Hence, it may well work on other aosp roms. But as far as I know no one from the X10 android development section has managed to get it to process video as well as image.

Hope this explanation helps. I'm not a dev, but I've used the x10 for more than a year and have done my share of reading and learning from the master devs there.
[Nexus S Android Development] Lord_Micron:
I never said it had to do anything with with a hardware engine... just that until Sony opens up to other phones utilizing the Bravia Engine, it won't work.

Yes, they are libraries... Yes, we can load them.

No, we cannot use them. See that swiqi service that we "enable" as part of the modding procedure? Enable it on a non-SE phone, or even a SE phone without an SE ROM...

Look for the swiqi service... :eek:

Without the service, which we don't have... the libraries are useless, and what people "see" is a placebo.

You don't need to be a "master dev" to have a basic understanding of how linux services and drivers work. ;)
