[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheManii:
The update.zips are completely unmodified, only thing that's been done is run though the stock rec to decrypt.

The safe way to decrypt them on your own is to load the wrong stock rec so it will fail at the first step in the update script. (It checks to see that your rec is the right region so it doesnt install a different region rom)

Afterwards a file will be dumped into <sdcard>\lost.dir, it's the decrypted pkg + garbage from the end of the last memory block. The zips themselves are the same size as the pkg.

There's no real point to making your own pkgs as the only thing it'd do is allow you to install it on a stock rec, but knowing how the encryption works is still useful.

This is even more true on the s10 as it uses pkgs, but they're encrypted differently and these steps dont work on it. I've yet to get a dump from those. All I can do is make nvflash dumps immediately after installing.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyris69:
Does anyone know where to find some 3rd party BT Radios/Stacks for the Atrix? I have a pair of the S9-HD BT Headphones and I can be 60ft away from my phone and still get a perfect signal but if my phone is in my pants pocket it skips every time I step, even happens randomly in my chest pocket.

Just thought there might be a better radio out there. Currently running rooted/unlocked with CM7 ICS Prerelease.

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] thedorinro:
Hi,

Sorry for the stupid query but i just want to know if is normal or not.

Optimus 2x P990 2.3.4 stock fairly new phone so the battery hasn't got the chance to do many charge cycles (only 4)

The thing is when watching a movie (normal m4v or avi not HD or such) i see the battery drain 1% every 3 minutes so if i start a movie with 100% i get with around 65-68% ~ of battery left.

low brightness, no wifi, no data, no BT, low sound and using MX Videoplayer.

Is the drainage fair or is too much ??......1% every 2-3 minutes of movie played.

Thanx,
[LG Optimus 2x] Janzuu:
I think thats good draining percent for watching video =)
[LG Optimus 2x] Flix123:
I agree with that. The draining is normal.

But maybe the stock video player is a bit more efficient and battery friendly because of the better hw acceleration.
[LG Optimus 2x] Medizinmann:
Hello!

Yes, this is perfectly normal as you should keep in mind what playing video means for your device…;)

CPU can’t sleep, the backlight of your display (on of the heaviest power consumer in this phone) is alight all the time, data access to SD card all the time and you have sound playing too - I assume.

I usually get 2h-4h of video playback on a full charge before 15% warning pops up – depending on other apps running in the background like i.e. gsm-data/cloud syncs etc.

In Airplane mode using the phone on a flight I get max. 5h.

So if you plan to use the phone as a video player, I would recommend to have a external power source handy…:D

BTW: I usually use moboplayer and non converted standard resolution mpeg-files from onlinetvrecorder.com.
[LG Optimus 2x] thedorinro:
thanx all for replay,

and yes with stock player i get better battery life.

Are you running the verizon stock rom (2.1) or did you flash 2.2 thanks to the awesome talent in these forums?
[Continuum General] AUATL:
2.2, hopefully they can get it running on this phone, seems like a great deal for 5 bucks
[Continuum General] Bierce22:
id defenitly fork over the 5$ rockstar kind of pissed me off on this one though because if your not sure your phone is supported and u buy it u have to download the 400mb file witch takes longer than 15 minutes on most peoples connections so u wouldnt be able to refund it once u found out it dosnt work

witch is very shady if u ask me
[Continuum General] AUATL:
Yeah it is definitely not best business practices
[Continuum General] Txwolf1980:
If I can slip my two cents in here. The refund issue is supposition, at best. Wouldn't it make more sense to contact the dev and ask him what his refund policy is, if the game doesn't work, considering the timeframe for downloading the data?

Before when scrolling up or down it would overscroll and bounce back, but having updated to 2.3.5 it's been replaced with a blue fade.

I bought the below car charger because the cheap generic one I had from an old phone couldn't keep up with the drain from the screen when running sat nav.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290627400358?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

This also doesn't work, it loses a percent of charge every 10 minutes or so, while I'm aware this isn't alot and I can probably get anywhere in the UK on a full charge, the fact is I want my phone to actually be charging while it's plugged in as I don't always have a full charge and I may need it topping up on my journey in case I don't have another charging opportunity for a while.

I cannot find another genuine samsung product that claims to be compatible with the s2 (indeed the above "genuine" charger doesn't appear on Samsung's website.) There is one on their site (P10CBE In-Car Charger) however it claims to be only compatible with the galaxy tab. While I know it simply has a USB socket for use with any data cable, I'm worried it may damage the phone if rated too high in amps (700mA to 2A is a big jump.)

So I have 3 questions...

1) Is the tab charger safe to use, and does anyone else have this and can confirm it can keep up with the screen permanently on with google navigation running.

2) Can anyone suggest another brand that they have experience with it definitely keeping up with the charge on a galaxy s2, running screen etc.

3) I quite like the look of the official Samsung car mount, can anyone confirm if the charger included with this can keep up etc (also if you know what ampage it's rated to as I can't find this info on the product data.)

Many thanks if you take the time to reply to this, a bit lengthy I know.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] peachpuff:
Use siyah's kernel to increase the charging current, how high you can go is anyones guess. Stock kernel supply's 450mA when plugged into a usb port and 650mA when plugged into a charger, i set mine to 800mA for both and all seems fine so far.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ndtv88:
I have used a motorola car charger and this has actually worked better that the original samsung car charger, charges faster, and has a cool blue light. since the micro-usb is non-proprietary, you have lots of options.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ApophisXP:
Using an Official charger, better than those cheap ones that fail to keep the battery topped up while using the phone as a satnav.

The main problem with the cheap adapters is the output current, it tends to be too low for GPS. Make sure it is regulated & 750mah or higher.

Hi guys and gals!

#firstworldproblem

So, i did something really stupid today. I activated Facebook's new layout "Timeline" (this) and i regret doing it. Every single stupid status update and everything else is just popping up in the timeline, and i do NOT like it. I started deleting some of them, but after 10 minutes i realized that i've written too many updates through the years. I can't delete them all. It will take 17 years.

So i thought that the solution would maybe be to delete my profile and start fresh. I'll "lose" all my friends and stuff, and i'll probably use more time adding them back then deleting my past statuses.

What do you guys think i should do?
[Off-topic] Archer:
Isn't that your answer right there?
[Off-topic] LordManhattan:
Eh.. well.. uh.. yeah :p I've decided to not delete it. I've used quite some time deleting stuff now, and i'm almost done! 4 months left in 2007, so i guess it'll take 20 minutes or so..

Kill me. Now.

[Off-topic] LordManhattan:
Yup. I want to quit the whole thing, but then i'll be an anti social guy (online) who doesn't know "what's up".

But i won't do anything about it right now. I update my status like once a month, and i'm only checking the news feed once a day.

Have you seen the videos by anonymous? Facebook is the worst. And they aren't gonna have it.

[Off-topic] Archer:
I gotta say, I quite like it. There's nothing on there that wasn't available to my friends anyway so it's just a layout change. Nothing's more or less public than it already way.

Also, Facebook is changing to this Timeline view regardless. You don't have a choice whether to use it or not.

[Off-topic] jaszek:
I like the timeline as well. A positive change, which is weird in regards to facebook. All the statuses we're available in the old layout as well, so this just changes the look. It was just as easy to find the status updates before.

No, it's much easier and faster to find the idiotic posts now! I've used two hours browsing and deleting :P

I'm planning to get a Droid 3 (xt862) for use in the UK...but have come across a couple of posts from people not being able to unlock it with third-party codes. like here.

I think the problem is mainly with used Verizon phones as apparently Verizon change the internal code during updates.

Devs, please move to appropriate category if i posted in wrong spot.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to un root and lock the bootloader back on the unlocked gsm version of the galaxy nexus? Rooted and unlocked for a buddy and now he is returning the phone. As easy as it was to unlock, i was wondering if it's close to the same command to lock? (switching unlock to lock) if so, then it would just be the matter of unrooting it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Since this is General Chat............I want to say sorry to everyone here. I have a few $$$$ and for the last 2 days, have been looking to get myself a Christmas Present, specifically, another phone!

I spent the better part of yesterday doing research on Galaxy SII, Unless you switch to T-Mobile for the 1.5G processor, its a waste. And lets be honest, T-Mobile has no cash and the Fed's have a lock on AT&T giving them any.

I spent a good part of today looking at the news on Galaxy Nexus. For personal reasons, I hate Verzion, but if you look at this phone, spec for spec, Photon beats it. Funny, it has no room for SD Card and it praises a 4.6" screen, but only 4" is viewable?

We all have the need to make our phones special, I do not see what more I can actually do. I love it just the way it is and even when I look at other phones, I see no reason to leave. I'm not saying the others phones are bad, they are not. I just find that doing a COMPLETE side-by-side comparison..........

I'm here to stay!

[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
Nice Shabby, its missing 2Gb of ROM (which Photon will likely suck up with ICS), missing FM Radio, and its missing a few networks. Nice phone, not being picky, just going spec-4-spec!

(Russian, South Korea, China, Sydney, South Africa, UK, German, Finland, Norway, (of course Sweden, headquarters), Rio, and good ole Amprior Canada!!)

[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
@Kenny, I understand your point, but I was mearly speaking of Spec wise. It's missing 3 items that make Photon a COMPLETE business choice. Will 1Gb RAM play nice with ICS? The better I get with camera, the more I use it so why downgrade? What if I get trapped in Mexican Jail on vacation?

Granted, not all of this comes into play for everyone's use BUT, nice to know we have it just in case.
[Motorola Photon 4G] SNAAAAKEE:
Having come from the samsung moment I'm wary of ever buying another samsung phone again the only thing appealing to me about the new nexus is ICS and hopefully that will end up coming to the photon. I can't think of any other phone that's currently out right now that I would prefer over the photon.
