You can turn back the time in your Phone Settings and when finished using app you can turn the time back and that's it. But it would be nice if the author can provide to us a new version or at least the version which does not expire...:)
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
Hi guys i'm back and working on the app...

App2zip is still not as perfect as i wanted but i'm going to put it in the Android market, please understand that much work remains to be done so report any issue and don't be too harsh when reviewing the application :)

You'll get the link shortly
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
ok then, here is the link

That's the play store link to the basic version (even the pro/donate version is on the play store).

Feedbacks, comments and issue reports are all welcome!
[Android Apps and Games] Cruz182:
curious app!works fine here htc desire
[Android Apps and Games] UnitedOceanic:
awesome, thank you. i was looking for something like this for ages.

one problem i noticed, the app saves the created file to the root directory of the SD card. the thing is I'm using the Motorola milestone (the European cousin of the Droid) and it has a locked bootloader and it needs a modified update.zip file in the root directory of the SD card. a different save location or a different default name for the file would be best.
[Android Apps and Games] philburkhardt:
I bought the pro version. It says it can't access my SD Card on both my EVO 4G and my Transformer.

Is this app going to get it's own thread now that it is on the Play store?
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
Thanks :)

I took a look at the code, the issue you had will be fixed in a few hours.

And yes, i'll open a dedicated thread in order to track any issue in easier manner.
[Android Apps and Games] philburkhardt:
Thanks for the quick response :)

I'm really looking forward to watching this app grow. I was just wishing there was an app that did this, and then I stumbled upon this thread. Great stuff.
[Android Apps and Games] Kurupt1:
+1 just bought the app great work, can't wait for updates
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
Just uploaded a new apk with the "cannot access sdcard" thing fixed.

Version 1.01

If you still see the 1.0 in the play store just wait a bit before download, 1.01 will show up shortly.
[Android Apps and Games] CATA-:
Its not compatible with motorola defy : (

Any opportunity for me?

Tetas naturales > Tetas hechas

Sorry my bad english
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
:eek: Sometimes the Android market/Play store is funny... i mean, it looks like the app is available for Moto "Defy" but not for Moto "MB525", which is the same.

Note that most of the tests was made using a Defy!! So the app works for you.

Take a look at your PMs, i'll post the apk there.
[Android Apps and Games] Nigeldg:
I don't know if this is exactly what you want, but you can just perform a backup in CWM the later go to advanced restore and restore data partition :)
[Android Apps and Games] philburkhardt:
It seems too be fixed :D!

I am making a zip now, and I'm about to flash a new ROM on my Transformer. I'll report back on the results.

[Android Apps and Games] philburkhardt:
Update: It didn't work. Told me the zip was bad when I tried to flash it. Luckily I also have everything backed up through Titanium :).
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
:( ouch

Just a question, did you try to flash the zip using a custom recovery or the stock one?

It works for me using CWM recovery, tested on several devices but no tablets so far..
[Android Apps and Games] Kurupt1:
Testing now

Will report back. Cwm recovery
[Android Apps and Games] Kurupt1:
Same thing here, error (0) installation aborted, on cwm :-(.
[Android Apps and Games] philburkhardt:
It was a custom cwm made for the Transformer.
[Android Apps and Games] CATA-:
Works perfect in Motorola Defy (in your face market) with 2ndinit.

Tetas naturales > Tetas hechas

Sorry my bad english
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
@philburkhardt, Kurupt1

"E:Error in /emmc/update.zip"

(status 0)

Installation aborted.

is this the exact error message you had (from CWM recovery)?

I'm currently testing on a Motorola Atrix which gave me that message... i will look into it, hope to get it fixed soon.

@CATA-

fine :)
[Android Apps and Games] Kurupt1:
Yep that was it! :-)
[Android Apps and Games] philburkhardt:
Not me. Mine said something like:

cannot open zip(bad)
[Android Apps and Games] xdaid:
@ philburkhardt, Kurupt1

No good news yet.

I spent hours trying different solutions but none worked so far.

Now i have two devices side by side, Defy plus and Atrix:

they're both on android 2.3.4

they have similar dirs' tree

same moto stuff

even the same modded CWM recovery (by Tenfar)

Well, on the Defy+ any zip file made by app2zip is flashed successfully, on the Atrix i keep getting the (status 0) error.

When i confirm the zip file to flash CWM tries to pick it from "/emmc" folder, which does not exist.

Note that for both, Defy+ and Atrix, the mount point for the emmc is "/mnt/sdcard" while the mount point for an external sdcard is "/mnt/sdcard-ext".

So the os structure is pretty similar...

now i'm messing up a bit with the vold.fstab file, looking for something relevant.

No "bad zip" or similar errors encountered so far, i'll keep investigating, but i think it could be related to the emmc issue as well.
[Android Apps and Games] Kurupt1:
Hope you can figure it out, you should start a thread for your app.
[Android Apps and Games] Paparasee:
Hi Xdaid,

Before flashing a ROM, I had placed NotifyWake.apk in the system\app folder. After flashing the ROM and setting up all apps the way I wanted it, I ran your app and made a flashable zip. Now, your update.zip file has a \system\app folder with the NotifyWake.apk file in it, but I do not see the settings data anywhere.

I flashed the ROM again and ran your update.zip file, but the data (settings) of this app does not get restored. I tried to restore my email settings too and had no luck.

One other thing too ... can you tell me what has to be selected to restore my sound, volume and date settings?

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibejack96:
Ok so I want to install the ROM with the volume fix found at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371054 but do I have to wipe cache, dalvik, data if I'm coming from the previous stock ROM that came with the device (ITL41D)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
No not really but you do want to unlock the bootloader and flash CWM first.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeykrim:
Directions above are brief and perfect.

One addition, can't hurt and is good practice, also make a nandroid backup after unlocking the bootloader and loading CWM but before flashing the ROM.

New devices bring new bugs and tweaks, plus us humans we are error prone. A good stock backup is usually one of the first things I always do .. even if I never end up using it. Provides a great fall back in case anything does go wrong.

Good luck and let us know if you have any issues!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gulaschsuppn:
Hi!

Does anyone know if it is possible to view DVB-T on a Galaxy Tab 10? I would like to use a DVB-T2 USB stick with the Galaxy Tab. I know there is a USB host converter and I also know that it should be possible in general, because of the DVB-T support of Urukdroid (Archos Gen8).

Does anyone know of a ROM that offers this kind of support or what would steps would be necessary to do so?

Thanks!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] iCraft:
I'm not quite sure why T-Mobile would be doing that, especially when you didn't go over your limit.

My suggestion would be to just use a 3rd party wifi tethering app.

I personally use the Wifi tethering app from opengarden. Since your phone is rooted you can use it. It also doesn't use any of your 2gb, so you shouldn't have a problem with tethering anymore.

Hope I helped!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] psukid:
Tmo has told me in the past they'll eventually catch up to you

and start charging for it.:mad:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iCraft:
I don't think they can possibly track it from a 3rd party application that requires root.

In fact I'm sure they can't, they can only track how much data you are using. They may be able to track the tether built into the phone, but especially not a 3rd party application that requires root.

I have been using Open garden's wifi tether, and never had problems from T-Mobile.

Give the open garden wifi tether a try, if your g2x is rooted. I'm pretty sure that they cannot track it, and it also doesn't use any of your allowed 2gb since its a root required app.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TerryMathews:
Simply not true. There are many different ways to monitor for tethering based on the packets. TTL and user agent would be the easiest to implement.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
Not true. Data usage, weather it's tethering or mobile usage still counts against your monthly cap.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ducc:
Yeah, if you have the tethering option marked in your phone, they will catch up to you. I use easy tether with the tethering option unmarked.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iCraft:
Hence the fact I almost forgot I have unlimited data...my bad folks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
We all have "unlimited" data. You just get throttled over 2 or 5 GB.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dw9906:
I got 10GB. 5 is not enough for me. I hate getting throttled.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
How much extra is 10 GB?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crockashat:
Thanks for the information on the open garden app. I was hoping for a single app that would work for both USB and WiFi tethering but it is not looking good, so in the mean time I guess I will just have to use separate apps for use on PCs and Tablets.

as for the data usage, I don't see how an app could bypass ticking the data packet counter as files are downloaded, I am sure it counts any data packets being pulled down or pushed up from the cell connection. If not - I am sure any wireless provider would be scrambling to close that loop hole as quickly as possible.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dvicens:
The only way they can track it is by putting it into the o.s. build. I have NEVER seen that messgae and i live in atlanta. I tether my phone EVERYDAY to my laptop when i have to download certain files for work. I have been tethering for about a year and a half now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nguyenmd:
use different browser. This happenned to me one day while using firefox, i switch to google chrome, i'm back on business. Dont know why thou.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
I just tried barnacle wifi and it worked for me with no problems. Is it only the wired tether (pdaNet) having this issue?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
Maby it's a CARRIER IQ telling on you!!! LOL
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gringo75:
Been using barnacle wifi tether works good no issues
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
I have the sgs2 and it was blocked from the start. I would guess that with this newest horse**** update they rolled out for the g2x they included the files to block tethering. But all you need to do is root the phone install titanium backup pro and look for a file called tethering manager and freeze it then you can go back to tethering for free. But make sure you freeze it DO NOT DELETE IT!!! I heard a few people say when they deleted it it f***ed up the phone

I don't know if that is definitely the solution but give it a try and report back please.

Charlie
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crockashat:
The G2x was rooted 2 weeks after I got it when it had Froyo. It is currently on Weapon3.0 and it is rooted now as well. I hunted around for the "tethering manager.apk" file(s), and I was unable to locate any reference to it. I do have root access enabled and I have also enabled the "view hidden files" in the file manager and I still did not find any tethering manager file(s)

You should really try looking in the Hero forums and read up on flashing and using adb and fastboot. If something goes wrong flashing, those tools will be a lifesaver. The way you are flashing right now is just an accident waiting to happen rom manager is notorious for messing up. Just go to the Hero forum and read up on rooting and there will be a How-To guide on getting S-Off as well. Just do some reading and you will get the hang of everything. Its really easy once you get the hang of it.

Has anyone done any testing between the two? Curious as to which is better at saving battery.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chay03:
I too would like to know?

Can you guys post your Smart Actions Settings for battery life?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] heavyhms:
For energy saving purpose Juice defender works better, but you can use in addiction Smart action to automate some tasks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aimache:
In my opinion, JD is far more effective, but perhaps it's because I use it for a long time and I don't want to change my habits :)

I tried SA, but I've switched back to JD after a week.

Using JD with advanced settings (schedules, brightness control, screen on, ...), I have just no battery issue.

In case you like OOTB solutions, SA are ... smart enough.

In case you like full control, JD gives you more options.

They both deserve a try :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SallyC:
I too must side with JD for flexibility, ease and results with the battery savings. I love SAand tried to beat JD but couldn't. They are still very helpful with other things though.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] beaumontcali48:
I never used smart actions but I juice defender and it lags the hell out of my phone so ill never use it again. What is smart actions anyways?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] heavyhms:
There are small lags with any app that disable and re-enable data connection when sync start. This occurs also with smart action: it's a Android operating system issue
[Motorola Droid RAZR] onemotodroid:
i am going to give Smart Actions a try.

I have used JD and it works great but, does add a lag when device is return active.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanmcd72:
don't forget to set your built in "Task Manager" to auto-kill the apps you don't need running once your phone's display is off for a few minutes...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] p_vhd:
I use them together. They are more effective when used together.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Oaklands:
Just curious, what setting do you have juice defender set to. I bought it today and tried to customize it. 2 days ago I suddenly had Motorola Services show up eating a high percentage of time and my Barry life has gone down. It shows CPU total at 17 minutes and keep awake at 4 hours and 18 minutes. I have been on battery for 5 hours and am down to 62%.

I had free JD running as well and had for a while. I might change from customized to a default. My battery life has gone south since this Motorola services showed up out of no where.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] detr0yt:
I personally don't use S.A. I use juice defender ultimate & tasker... Both are excellent programs... Taller is the same thing as smart actions but a thousand times more powerful and customizable..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kgb2000:
I use SA, it is not perfect but it is pretty easy to use. One thing I wish for is when I disconnect my bluetooth, quit pandora if it is running.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iwang:
i tried juice defender ultimate but the phone went hot, use smart action instead. i bet having both of them would be conflicting.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] [TSON]:
Smart Actions are useful and slightly more customizable, but JD has way more options to help save battery & can do AOSP helper type stuff. Definitely siding with JD
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ronin3178:
Turned off SA's, installed JD ultimate, the first day's results are :

View attachment 817163View attachment 817165

I barely got 8-10 hours with SA's before. JD ftw.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Jesseownzzz:
How would I go about doing that?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dubai.xda:
+1

we need to learn more
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iwang:
tried

1. SA and JD both at the same time - phone get hot, poor battery

2. JD stand alone - slow, missing emails, long time to reconnect (annoying). poor battery

3. back to SA standalone (with setcpu)..it gets better now, around 7-10% per hour with similar use. this is the best i got, so far.

phone is rooted and few apps/bloatware frozen.

i have used JD from nexus one days in 2010, and didn't work for me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ertDeath:
Smart actions i believe works in a much more reasonable way than juice defender which is a terrible app when you use the free version and I have yet to really test the payed version.

Other than that I still would put my vote on smart actions mostly because Juice defenders method is to turn off features of the phone to save battery life which would stop things like email and facebook (for example) from updating on a live basis.

Also I've yet to see either app have the function to auto switch 4G on when you unlock the phone.

I am going to give credit to smart actions here just because the free version comes with more options than the payed version of juice defender and lets you build its battery saving protocols rather than using a menu to pick the ones the dev thought up.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nerdslogic:
I am currently running a 4 day experiment to answer this question. In all actuality I will be doing this for 8 to test both heavy and light usage.

You can see progress and configurations here.
