[General Questions and Answers] b0nafide:
I unpacked a known good zImage, played with it's initramfs, repacked it and it boots just fine.

I've tried again with a fresh copy of the gt-i9000 froyo-samsung branch:

- unpack initramfs from a known good 2.6.32.9 kernel

- make clean

- make aries_eur_defconfig

- make menuconfig, add initramfs, remove Samsung TV driver and FM radio module

- make

the resulting vmlinux is: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped (I know, it's zImage not vmlinux but I'm just doing sanity checks)

I have a custom logo in param.lfs which always displays on boot. A second logo is compiled into the kernel, and I do see a change in the logo when my kernel boots (it shows GT-I9000 instead of GT-I9000M after the first logo). This leads me to believe that the kernel is booting... but the phone powers off after booting.

I've tried the recommended changes to default.prop to use adb to obtain the kmsg of the new kernel. This has not worked however, which could mean that the kernel doesn't get as far as initramfs.

the kernel command line from the kmsg I have from the one time that a custom kernel of mine booted is simply: "console=ttySAC2,115200 loglevel=4" . There's no mention of init, which I think should be init=/init although aries_eur_defconfig seems to think that init=/linuxrc is appropriate (linuxrc doesn't exist?) Regardless, it doesn't seem to matter what I specify for init.

Which leaves proprietary Samsung kernel modules. If they can't load, this could explain everything I'm experiencing. It isn't clear what specific version the proprietary modules are expecting.

I desperately want to know if hsdpa can be on/off in new cyanogenmod 7.2 for galaxy mini because an app in android market named "hidden features free sammy edtn" was successfull in enabling/disabling hsdpa in stock rom but it does not work on cm 7.2 !!!

i dont want to disable 3g network, just want to switch to umts data or hsdpa data as per requirement.. it helps massively saving battery ...

in my case i used the software named "hidden features free sammy edtn" on stock 2.2.1 and switched to release 99(WCDMA DATA ONLY & 3.5G off) then i installed cm7.2, since then im on wcdma data and i cannot switch to hsdpa data... so i need an option to change 3g data DEVELOPERS HELP

no .. this does not help in disabling HSDPA data.. :( help plz
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yagya:
HSDPA is nothing simply some improved version of 3G or similar network... If you don't use mobile data packet, i.e. 3G/2G or any means of connection via sim card then HSDPA is already disabled. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psndna88:
yagya ill explain what im trying to say:

1: if i type *#301279# (HSDPA/HSUPA Control Menu) on stock rom i can disable hsdpa and 3g radio works as R99 mode (UMTS data only, hsdpa off, 3.0G)

2: i try to do the same on cm 7.2, nothing happens,, i dont get a menu

3: i tried appending ro.ril.hsxpa=0 to system.prop in /system using root explorer,,, after many restarts it doesnt work either,,,

u see the problem here is im subscribed to tata docomo 3g network here in india, the 3g data plans are sky high and very much unaffordable.. so im in 2g data plan : luckily my operator allows me to use 3g network but with speed limited to 18kBps because of 2g plan subscription..... so all the time using 3.5G with hsdpa for just 18kBps is useless + its a battery eater even for just chatting !

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psndna88:
u see, 3g network mode always does not always imply hsdpa mode to be used.. i want to configure the 3g radio to use only umts packet data(3.0G) and to switch off hsdpa(3.5G) packet data service WHILE USING 3G network all the time... a stock rom can do it, why can't cyanogenmod???

>> an app in android market named "hidden features free sammy edtn" was successfull in enabling/disabling hsdpa in stock rom but it does not work on cm 7.2rc3 !!!

>> *#301279# (HSDPA/HSUPA Control Menu) on stock rom i can disable hsdpa and 3g radio works as R99 mode (UMTS data only, hsdpa off, 3.0G) but this code doesnt work on cm7.2rc3

hello guys. I pose the following problem, I'm pretty desperate. 2.3.5 I have everything working perfect android weeks. suddenly begins to walk when you want the external speaker, after blocking the screen back on if you do not remove the battery, and now passes the boot logo. The worst thing is that I can not get either to recovery

I broke the processor?

pd: the phone suffered previous days rain
[Atrix 4G General] Phalanx7621:
You realize after butchering the English language that you answered your own question. Rain.
[Atrix 4G General] aleesh92:
thanks that was my question, but I'm not safe 100% . I guarantee it replaces the phone?. I think the warranty help?

sry for my very bad english
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
Warranty probably doesn't cover water damage
[Atrix 4G General] aleesh92:
I'm not sure the rain. days worked well then. **** it all in hours, except the speaker
[Atrix 4G General] davemao:
Water damage is weird. It can be several days after exposure to water before the device breaks. Right now you have 2 options.

1) Take it back to the store and hope that they will replace it under warranty, even though the device is water damaged. There are moisture sensors on the battery and inside the housing of the phone that have probably changed color from white to red. If they check these, they will know that the phone has been exposed to moisture, and they will probably not replace your phone.

2) Try to fix the phone yourself. Find videos on YouTube that show you how to disassemble the Atrix. Disassemble the phone until you can remove the main board (motherboard) from the phone. Soak the main board in 91% or higher isopropyl alcohol for about 2-4 hours. While it is submerged, use a toothbrush to clean the main board of any corrosion you can see on the metal contact points of the main board. Remove the main board from the alcohol bath and let it dry for a couple of hours. Reassemble the phone, turn it on, and pray.

Good luck!

Hi!

I've read through different posts, but I haven't got the answer to my question, which is:

I connect through CM7.1s WiFi tethering and I get internet access on my computer, but just a couple of minutes later it stops working (i.e the computer no longer connects, doesn't find hotspot), though the phone still tells me tethering is active. Disabling doesn't work, phone darkens the option all together, though still says it's active. Only reboot makes it idle again.

Known issue? Have I done something wrong? No problems at all with USB-teethering.

Thanks!

PS.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayDee2:
Same here

Has someone got an answer? Has it been fixed in CM 7.2 or later?

It's irritating.. sometimes it works for 2mins other times for 30mins. When it stops you have to restart the phone because it cannot disable. The Checkbox is just disabled and when I disconnect while it's working, it is disabled almost immediately. I've even left it over night to "disable" just to see what happens. Nothing... It's a pity. Such a great mod with such a great drawback... I hope it gets fixed!

Any help, advice, tips, etc appreciated! :good:

Hello all,

The other day I tried using this command to disable to stock apps but it doesn't seem to work at all:

adb pm disable <package_name>

None of the pm commands seem to work!? I've tried 'pm list packages', no output!?

I'm on stock-rooted ROM.

Same goes when using Titanium Backup, instead of silent installs it brings the standard installation screen!

Wondering if it works better on custom ROM?

Did anyone manage to make it work?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xperia ray:
Guys , some people are reporting that they are unable to revert to stock rom after flashing custom rom.

If you want to save your phone , then i highly recommend you to make a complete backup before flshing stock rom

go to cwm recovery and select backup/restore then backup (it will make your stock rom backup)

whenever you want to revert , go again to clockworkmod recovery and select restore under, backup/restore option

now last and most important thing to run stock rom ---> flash stock kernel using fastboot method

first grab stock kernel to do that , download your phones stock firmware from here = http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10885406#post10885406

using 7zip extract kernel.sin file from .ftf firmware file

connect your phone in fastboot mode and run this command

fastboot flash boot kernel.sin
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] noooooob:
I'm doing it again and again without any problem.. just be sure to flash stock kernel before flashing stock rom.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xperia ray:
thanks, i will try this method too

first flash stock kernel , then using flashtool flash firmware , am i right ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] second_east:
Stock kernel (kernel.sin) is included in the package (of official stock firmware). So everytime you flash an official stock firmware, kernel.sin is also flashed. No need to flash kernel.sin before flashing stock firmware. Correct me if im wrong.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xperia ray:

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nettwerk:
No way to install WP7 on Dell Streak. Buy Windows Phone device.

In theory any device that has the minimum hardware requirements can run wp7 since there are drivers created to support it. Ive included the ms wp7 min hardware specs that I grabbed from wiki.

the dell has a nvidia tegra2 cpu so I doubt it would even run if you were able load wp7 nto it.

As for a metro ui launcher replacement for android they had versions out before wp7 came out officially.

here is a link to the market place of one of them

https://market.android.com/details?id=chrisman.android.home.metroui.stable&hl=en

Hope this helps I actually just got a d streak 7 wifi unit and am enjoying it.

I believe win8 is being tested on Nvidia tegra cpu/gpu by ms so hopefully when its launched we will be able to dual load it with droid.

Oh yeh, you can now actually PLAY the games and the Xoom is officially supported. Touch controls are a bit dodgy so i was kinda hoping some clever person might get PS3 or Xbox controllers working but until then the official wireless controller is due out very soon.

My wired 360 controller through an OTG cable worked perfectly. This is a huge deal. Played split second and it looked great, lag wasn't an issue, I am impressed.
[Xoom General] balldontlie:
Got the app, we'll see what comes of this. Touchscreen is gonna have to go for me, not a fan of touchscreen controls especially when there's physical controller options. Tried a Saitek 6 button and a PS2 controller/adapter through the OTG... both let me use the analog stick and d-pad but no other buttons. Looks like it's time to bite the bullet and get the wired 360 controller.

Does the 360 controller work with navigating the menus, pausing and all that? And does the Xbox button do anything with OnLive?
[Xoom General] omac_ranger:
Yeah it has full functionality built in with the wired controller. When you press the Xbox button it brings up the Onlive menu. It works REALLY well honestly
[Xoom General] mcnob:
I'm guessing that OnLive will cotton on to that eventually and release an update to make all controllers except their own incompatible.

Having said that, has anyone tried using a wired controller with the USB adaptor that let's you use it with a PC? I'm guesting that only works with drivers but still......

The app actually runs ok when using my MiFi which i was surprised at. Although with a ping of anything over 70ms the controller lag gets a bit annoying.
[Xoom General] balldontlie:
After a few days with the app I'm pretty impressed. I gave the $10 a month plan a try so I could really get a good idea (plus compare against the PC version.)

The wired 360 controller works flawlessly and I agree, I could see them blocking the non-OnLive controller once it's released, or if they were smart after a little more adoption. The flawlessness goes away once you fire a game up though. There was some lag, and trying to play a couple multi-player shooters was dreadful. Playing these same games on the PC with the same controller was a noticeable improvement (of course, but just pointing that out).

Games look great on the Xoom but when I run it to the TV it's pretty low quality. Tried a few TVs, went through all kinds of TV settings, nothing made it look any better than PSX quality. Actually some PSX games have looked better on tube TVs to me. Could be a Xoom limitation, version 1 of the app, or a little of both. I could do without the mirroring on my tablet.

Sweet, Borderlands is included in the $10/month plan! Oh wait, here's a message that it won't run on tablets...

OnLive has some work to do with this, but it's very ambitious and I'm 100% behind this idea. They'll have some challenges now since they've gone to having a micro-console and PC/Mac apps to also having multiple Android tablets and phones and Apple tablets and phones. As far as this app on the Xoom, I would hold off on spending money with OnLive until the app gets a little better.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
i like snes via ps3 controller on xoom - hooked up to tv - so this would be pretty nice too I bet!
[Xoom General] mcnob:
Got my wired xbox controller today and it works brilliantly as previously confirmed. Just gotta hope OnLive don't go and nobble it's compatibility cos it was £25 cheaper than the official one.

Still, if they do, i can always use it with my xbox/PC......lol

Might actually buy a few play-passes now. Just gotta hope that 3 somehow manage to improve the latency on their MiFi so i can play on the go. Dreaming?
[Xoom General] jm9843:
Has anyone got the Xbox 360 wireless controller to work with the OnLive app on the Xoom?

I'm using the official Motorola OTG cable with an official Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver (http://goo.gl/Rhi0q). The combination works brilliantly for emulators like SNES9X but it doesn't seem to work with OnLive. It registers the left analog stick, the start button (goes back to the Xoom home screen), and buttons A & B which seem to be the equivalent of Esc on the keyboard.

If there's no trick or an app I could use to map the controller to keyboard commands, etc. I might have to get a wired 360 controller specifically for OnLive.
