[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] madsun:
Hi,

I am a happy owner of Samsung Galaxy Note. I live in Bangalore, INDIA and bought the device as soon as it was released.

However, as no accesories were available and a screenguard being paramount to keep my galaxy note as good as new, I purchased the maximum protection ZAGG invisibleshield for my note online through their website as soon as it was released(informed through these forums)

Its been several weeks and I have no update other than the confirmation when I log onto the www.zagg.com website that my order has been shipped but I am yet to receive the same.

There is no tracking number, and frequent calls to ZAGG customercare have failed to achieve the results as I feel that there is no option to actually talk to a living person on the other side.

Does ZAGG ship to INDIA? Are there other forum members who have bought online and received their shipment in INDIA?

The ZAGG customerservice does not work as its intended as we cannot get to speak to a humanbeing on the other side.

I request forum members to help suggest a resolution to my predicament.

Thanks

madsun

As I making a beats mod for sense 3.5, found interesting file TPA2051_CFG.csv and TPA2051_CFG_XC.csv, the first one should be the template and the second one is the working i2c command file for various system volume, search google for TPA2051, is the amplifier which uses i2c interface, I don't know what exactly i2c is, maybe electronic engineers can explain. Comparing XE and normal sensation's, giving only one difference value, see below in blue, that is the playback_headset max amplified value, XE is 55, sensation is 50, that's why the later you hear a lower volume, tweak it to 56 or maybe higher to here boom-boom-boom, pong-pong-pong, ping-ping-ping effect! :D

For ICS, get the files from my beats mod.

Do not tweak other values except you know exactly what you are doing, there are many of them are gain control, just one bit of them could doubled the gain and may damage your speaker. The datasheet has all the descriptions of these registers of I2C interface.

0x55 seems to be the largest value that the stock htc headset and beats headset can tolerate, 0x59 seems to be the largest value that the speaker can tolerate. For both, the largest volume value is 0x5F.

This should also applies to any other htc devices as long as there is a file similar to this, this is sensation's TPA2051_CFG_XC.csvf ile, if you are using other device, just use that file of your device.

================================================

SoundBoostForGB&ICS.zip

This work for both GB & ICS, without enable the AGC, enabling AGC making music sounds not so good, values for headset is default of XE ROM (0x55), and speaker is (0x59)

[HTC Sensation] celelivada:
i2c is a in-circuit protocol for comunicating. Thats the protocol the chips and memory banks use to transfer and address data. It is based on a serial connection. I dont know if any of that helps but just wanted to share that info. Now for a question, how to apply and what are the compatable ROMs?
[HTC Sensation] mudhi:
A big thank for your information, and that proves that value is the radio button of amplifier, and since it is a protocol, it will alike for all devices that uses the same chip, how to apply I'll post it on first post. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Hammer_Of_The_Gods:
Hi,

I just tested for the value in PLAYBACK_SPKR,set as you recommended and...Yes it works!There is an improvement :)

Thank you very much for this tip,very good ;)

No one else has tested :confused:
[HTC Sensation] celelivada:
WELL DONE. It works !!!! I will look into the other files and see how to tweak them if and when I get time because I'm at college for my masters all day. If there's anything I can help you, feel free to PM.

senastoin xe sense 3

would this work on my sesation xe runing sense 3 stock rom and were do i fiid the files new to this first andriod phone was using wm6.5
[HTC Sensation] celelivada:
it should work, didnt check it but it has ti have this cofig file. It says in the first post, I used ES file manager, and enabled the root access feature and browsed to the file specified and chenged the 2 values.

---------- Post added 15th December 2011 at 12:25 AM ---------- Previous post was 14th December 2011 at 11:48 PM ----------

I found the AIC3254_reg_dualmiccx file and after a loooong review of the datasheet from texas instruments, it seems that the video recording clipping can also be fixed this way. I found that in the:

A17,VideoRecord_IMIC,SET,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w

,,REGISTER,0x00,0x34,0x36,0x37,0x39,0x3B,0x3C,0x00,0x51,0x52,0x53,0x54,0x00,0x0E,0x0F,0x09,0x12,0x13

,,VALUE,0x01,0x20,0x02,0x20,0x02,0x58,0x58,0x00,0x00,0x88,0x00,0x00,0x01,0x02,0x02,0x3F,0x03,0x03

you can change 83 and 84 memory bank (0x53 and 0x54) to control the volume. 0000 0000 is default in the datasheet, which is 0dB.To lower the gain you have to write a negative digital number in those registers eg. 1111 1111 is a gain of -0dB.
[HTC Sensation] mudhi:
Thank you celelivada, I'll try at weekend. One more question, I,m tweaking some soundimage file for sound effects, the srs processor, there is input & output gain, default is 1.0 in and 1.0 out, the question is if input tweak to 0.5, will I get a a louder out?
[HTC Sensation] cybermungo:
Works great, thanks for the tip ...
[HTC Sensation] The Illest 619:
nice. cant believe a volume fix was that easy and i know its been an issue for a long time.
[HTC Sensation] celelivada:
I cant really tell, I really dont know if the input and output of that chip are connected, it has 2 miniDSPs, one is for input and one for output. But I think (because it sounds like it) that the number here represents a normal linear scale, not a dB one. So if you enter "2", the output would be doubled, although not twice as loud because of the whole logarithmic scale of the human ear. Be carefull with that number anyway, do small increments when testing.

edit___ I made a zip for flashing, so try it out, its based on the script for BEATS. I havent tested it but theres no reason for it not to work.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29005924/SoundBoost.zip
[HTC Sensation] mudhi:
It is that really easy, but the process of finding that easy is really soooooooo hard. :D found it until I replace files of /etc from other device.
[HTC Sensation] invisiblebm:
The zip file is not working. It says: installation aborted, error 6.
[HTC Sensation] diablokicks:
I'd be curious to see what RING does. Never hear it in my pocket...
[HTC Sensation] vis-tec:
Congrats on the work, though i have read this before and believe the Beats i flashed to my IC rom follows the same princepal. However what i am looking for is an improvement in Notification/Ringtones.

Is there anything in the file to indicate these can be adjusted?
[HTC Sensation] mudhi:
Ringtones and notification uses the that micro mono speaker, there is no other way to improve it except change it to larger one :D

There is another way, I saw a post to edit the audio file raising the volume, but same principle, the speaker is not big enough to deliver higher volume.

Although I don't really understand what is the exact meaning, but those 0x values are commands to be send to the chip, and those meanings are ins/outs, directions and level of amplifying, the rings I already tried but have to read the datasheet to understand the meaning, perhaps celelivada wants to read it.
[HTC Sensation] celelivada:
I will read it when I get the time. Now i worked on the soundimage files, and edited the SRS for music headset, and made a much punchier bass. For the .zip , I was in a hurry to make it, but it is really simple to make it yourself or just opet up the beats mod, because it already has the file but it is on stock values. You can open the zip end edit the file there than flash it.
[HTC Sensation] d.cortez:
are there other csv files where you can change a value to increase the in-call volume? on my Nexus One, Desire and INC S kernel devs were able to boost in-call volume for the HANDSET (not HEADSET). i'm assuming that the values in the OP do not affect the in-call volume/speaker versus the speaker on the rear of the phone. sadly for me, i haven't read/seen in-call volume tweaks for Sensation kernels. thanks for taking time to read/reply to my questions. (i wish i were savvy enough to do this on my own, lol).
[HTC Sensation] mudhi:
This reminds me my first impression on sensation is the front speaker volume is too low, and I never seen any post on how to improves it, but it should be possible, and I believe it is the same csv file. Need some readings on datasheet and trying.

:D so the beats mod have not enough punch. Some informations I know had posted over beats mod. The best source I can find on wow settings is here

Maybe increase trubass speaker size and level, decrease focus and definition, and increase ogain... Just a reminder that you don't have to wipe cache and dalvik everytime, to save time on reboot.

Sound effect tuning should be as easy as using Windows Media Player or any other player, just can't imagine why htc doesn't give this out but instead giving a fixed value, they are supposed to be have sliding bars for emphasize effects. May be they just focus on beats (which is only a bass enhancement and nothing else, and can only be tweaked by hacking the libbeatsbass.so library).

I share how I edit and push it to phone, if you are using Windows.

Using Android SDK, and set environment variable so that everywhere you can adb push and pull, if you install htc sync, adb are also installed, they may not the same version as the Android SDK and will giving that adb is outdate and restarted everytime, so delete those files adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll adbwinusbapi.dll. For win 7 just hold shift and right click to a folder to open cmd prompt.

To compare agains files or folders, first install notepad2 and replace the default notepad, download and use windiff.exe, it can compare difference on word by word, right click can open notepad to edit, and you can easily distinguish between them.

You can leaving notepad2 open just save values you changed and push to the phone and adb reboot. And can go back or go forward for the changes.
[HTC Sensation] mudhi:
If you get the time, please read the datasheet and find the tweak for handset voicecall volume. I found something interesting on sensation XL, but it's not easy to figure out. There is a new kind rev (reverse?) reverse for front and back speaker? front speaker is verrrrrrrrrrrrrry important. :D

[Defy General] mauromar:
Hello everyone! I have a problem with my defy green lens. After some problems with a custom rom I tried to go back to Froyo. No results. So I followed the guide Zephyrot (thank you) and I started from SBF U3_97.21.51 (Eclair 2.1 Update1) where 3G does not work in Italy. And unfortunately, after many attempts, I can not get on Froyo, my Defy freezes at boot with the Motorola brand. I've tried many and many SBF nandroid (also Gingerbread) ... and now what can I try?? Could someone nice suggest alternative solutions? thanks
[Defy General] Magnux:
Did you press Power + VolDown and then VolUp + VolDown?
[Defy General] mauromar:
Yes. procedure adopted!
[Defy General] farsight73:
Perhaps your systems img files has higher version which prevent you from going back to froyo..

Sent from my awesome Moto Defy: Rooted Gingerbread 2.3.6 - XDA Premium
[Defy General] mauromar:
Yes you can.

In fact Zephyrot, then read carefully, he says: A one kind Éclair has been found in China Defys that comes with Version 5 CG!.
[Defy General] Zephyrot:
Your problem is that you have already a higher CG version installed on your Defy. Which rom had you before you tried to go back to Eclair?
[Defy General] mauromar:
Hi Zephyrot.

I thank you and all the others for the help!

I went from CM7.2 to WajkIUI Nightly 1/12/02 (ICS addons). When I had space problems. In practice it was locked all the storage space of the Defy. With a few MB of space left.

At the first attempt to recover Froyo ... locked immediately after the bootloader.

Oh I forgot ... I am a stupid relapsed. I had already sent for repair after a wrong Defy Flash SBF. But in that case the symptoms appeared more severe. The Defy hangs at boot directly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lethallunatic:
Hi,

I'm an Android user for more than a year now and ever since I have the Galaxy Nexus the tethering is been giving me headaches. it seems to connect to my laptop but after a while it just stops to work. I can't browse any site or download anything from my laptop but this does seem to work on the Nexus.

I've resetted the phone to factory settings but this didn't solve it. I've also noticed that disconnecting and reconnecting to the wifi tethering helps even though I do have connectivity problems sometimes.

is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

I'm on the UK 3 network and the Nexus is not rooted and the unbranded version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lethallunatic:
before the galaxy nexus I was using the HTC Desire (rooted etc) but never had the same weird disconnecting issue..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Melhouse:
I have not tried it yet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aosco1:
Yes, having the same issues here as we speak. All the issues and fixes above I am experiencing. I'm from Australia on the Optus network.

I put my sim into a Huawei E585 and had no issue whatsoever, so seems to definitely be a phone issue....hopefully a software issue which will be fixed soon as I its extremely annoying as you know!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lethallunatic:
I'm awaiting the 4.0.2 or 4.0.3 update now, this seems to solve several issues and they also mentioned tethering in it. let's just wait it out now :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lethallunatic:
I haven't received any update on the Galaxy Nexus yet, still running 4.0.1, can anyone please verify if they are having issues running ICS 4.0.2 or newer on their handsets while tethering?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aindow:
I wonder if the networks have found a way to remotely block tethering access? I say this because I have an HTC Desire on Orange which will no longer load anything when using Wi-Fi tethering.

My Galaxy Nexus is fine though. I'm on the One Plan with Three which includes unlimited data and tethering (says so in the small print of the contract). I'd say contact Three if you're on the one plan and ask for their help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lethallunatic:
Guess you didn't really properly read all messages,

I don't have any probs if I tether from my desire, I have an All you can eat data on Three,

the thing is it just stops working and I cannot ping my Nexus from my computer. according to the change log for the nexus they did say to fix some wifi issues etc with updates..

So which version are you running???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rankiz:
I am running 4.0.2, Samsung galaxy nexus, and tehering is not working. Anyone have a solution to this problem?

Temporary solution:

(Click thanks! :D)

Google knows about the ICS tethering problem and this is their temporary solution.

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

You must "allow" you computer after you've connected to the hotspot. See this thread for more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] harryleung:
I am experience the same issue on my Galaxy Nexus, it's currently running 4.0.2 and Baseband I9250UGLA4.

my solution to the issue at the moment it's using USB tethering.

I suggest PdaNet, you can find it at Google Play and it's free =)

i am not using the stock wifi tethering feature on ICS instead i'm using FoxFi and at times the timeout issue will show up but if i restart the hotpot a few times, it seems to be working fine again...

i'm not sure if i am any good help to anyone but that's my experience...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
FWIW, I have not had any issue with this. I tried tethering for the first time the other day with my Wi-Fi-only tablet for an hour and it Just Worked.

hey guys,

i'm currently doing some research for the 14 y/o brother of a friend, whose parents have just allowed him to get a smart phone.

i only ever bought nexus devices and would recommend him the nexus s, but unfortunately his limit is ~180 euro and the nexus s is ~270 euro here in germany. thus i need some advice.

he can't decide between the galaxy ace and the wildfire s. which one would you pick? i'm looking for things like easily unlockable bootloader, stock android and cyanogenmod support. but those things seem to only be found in older, cheaper devices.

what would you say has the best bang of the buck and is future proof and could possibly get cyanogenmod support?

thanks,

yup, that's my observation so far. there's even an unofficial cm7 port for it.

until i can come up w/ an official supported device in the price class, i'm gonna tell him to go for the ace, or if possible pay 100 bucks more for the nexus s.

[Epic 4G General] abhaxus:
For a twenty percent boost get the battery for the epic touch. Fits the OG epic just fine without changing battery cover. Might be able to sweet talk a sprint store into giving you one free if you go and complain about battery life and they happen to have one in the back from a returned ET. Battery looks the same, is slightly heavier and has 1800 mah stamped on it.

I've noticed a pretty nice improvement from the 8 dollar one on ebay, I wouldn't say double either, but may 60 to 70 percent. I have been tweaking things for battery life recently, so that might be another thing that helps.
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
I am a pretty light user, I don't play games. On midNIGHT ROM 5.3 I went 6 days between charging. Of course that is with everything you can turn off; off.

Then I decided; why did I pay this money for this phone to use it like an old samsung a05?? (ok dated myself there).

I usually get 3-4 days texting, phone calls, weather updates, emails and poking around on the market.
