Loved ADW, SPB is eye candy but laggy and battery sucker on my Optimus One..

But in the end,

The default AOSP Launcher in Oxygen ROM is my fav launcher..

Not just because its ULTRA smooth.. :p

because it is the only launcher that hides n shows app instantly after i freeze or defrost them in Titanium backup :D

Hello,

Is their a method to install, under CyanogenMod 7, some originally HTC packages (.apk), extracted from the original HTC ROM like (RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_signed.zip) ?

No results when I copy them to /system/app,or installing a .apk package (no result).

And what about all the stuff that was defect in 2.1.0.8?

All the things you are talking about have effected a few users and thousends have never heared of them.

Wifi is mostly connected to the router ( ok that stupid >10channel thing coming back now and then ).

Batteriedrain is in 99% caused by the use of some software that doesn't let the tab sleep.

UI, if you stay with the std launcher there is no help. This is the same for every Android device, that's the reason why every rom has some other Launcher included.

Otherwise everything you talk about is fixed .

Is you glas half full or half empty?

Have you even considered that you are doing something wrong?

I never upgraded my 101 beyond 2.1.08 because it was stable for me. I did briefly play with a tablet with a newer firmware and didn't notice any issues.

I am still on 3.2.61 on my Gen tablet because it is working for me and none of the changelogs have mentioned Bluetooth fixes, which is my main issue.

Hey tabuser!

Do you know this page:

http://update.archos.com/8/gen8/changes_firmware_archos_android_gen8.htm

Here's another questions:

Why do some users stick to the old times, while others live on the bleeding edge of daily updates?

I am happy with the updates, and i don't know any reason why not to do it.

The only thing that i miss sometimes are the working mpg codecs in the 2.3.81 firmware.

Have fun!

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butterflygirl:
I usually take the first two or three updates immediately after release. If my Archos is working fine, then I usually wait to see what others say before updating after that, unless it is an OS upgrade or there is something in the changelog that fixes an issue I have. One of the reasons I wait is because sometimes you can't downgrade the firmware if you have major issues.

[Nook Color General] el_bobbo:
So I decided to root the nook this weekend and I'm having some issues that I can't get around.

I've rooted and ROM'd a few droids so far without an issue. I'm not an expert but I'm also not a noob.

I built up a bootable 1gb CWM and loaded up manualnooter-4-5-18 and manualnooter-4-6-16. CWM was pretty simple, and allowed me to load both of them up without an issue. (I've done both with and without a full wipe)

Once it reboots, it's perfect. market works, web works, rom manager permission fixes..everything works well.

The issue is once I power it off and back on, it's done. It hangs at the "Nook Color" splash screen (After the Read Everywhere and big grey N) and refuses to power up the OS. The onyl way i can get it back is to do a complete factory restore (power+vol button+N)

What am I doing wrong?
[Nook Color General] OrionLTD:
It sounds like you are suffering from the Flash / Air lockup problem. If you search the forums, there are links to download the zips that fix the issue.

I would also go to CWM 3.2.0.1 2.8 is rather old and 0.1 is a much easier experience especially on the new nooks.

I rooted two new nooks for my friend's kids Christmas presents last week. I used 3.2.0.1, Nooter 4-6-16 and used the adobe flash and air fixes and it went smooth.

Check this thread concerning the flash fix:

[Nook Color General] el_bobbo:
Ok cool, thanks OrionLTD. That sounds like my EXACT issue.
[Nook Color General] GMPOWER:

[Nook Color General] framitz:
Take a look at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20456719&postcount=1631

Wiping and updating to 1.4.1 followed by the above should do nicely. It's working beyond expectations for me and some others.
[Nook Color General] Anemailname:
That worked for me as well!

Although I had the old market at first after root.

I erased and deregistered and registered again and then applied the root 5-12-20 again and have newest market and so far so good, all is well
[Nook Color General] el_bobbo:
I might give that one a whirl, thanks guys.

The issue I had is that a newer version of Adobe had come out since GMPOWER's zip was released. There was another link in that thread to a newer zip (From another member) that ultimately resolved the issue.
[Nook Color General] Anemailname:
There was one fix for boot loop involving Titanium backup, I used that one and never had the problem again.

[Thinkpad Tablet Accessories] Shofar1:
RooCase has 2 models of cover. I bought the lighter one that was supposed to be 6 oz. While it doesn't add much weight and bulk, it is noticeable.

It is a nice fitting cover, seems well made and proper openings for all the ports.

However on 3 sides the cover has what I call flanges - not a smooth rounded form fitting way to close in the sides.

While I have neither the base nor the keyboard portfolio, the flanges might prevent proper usage without removing the TPT from the case.

I'll let you know next month when they arrive.

The only other thing is that it would have been nice to have magnetic closure on the cover.

Not for an Apple affect but so it the case is dropped the cover will remain closed and offering a little more protection to the face of the tablet.

[Thinkpad Tablet Accessories] MrKwatz:
I got the Executive case and have had it for about a week now. It's solidly made and is very protective. Plenty of padding to protect it from drops at reasonable heights.

The removable housing that the tablet is actually inserted in is quite nice for handling the tablet in once you get to where you need to be with it. It attaches by velcro.

Some gripes I have with it (all minor): Slightly more difficult to press buttons in the soft menu bar, since I used to swipe up from the bottom to press them. Speaker is partially obstructed (though no notable decrease in volume or quality). If you attach your pen with the cable you will have to untie it to take the tablet out of the housing. More significantly, you cannot access the resest/sim/sd panel while it is the housing.

Pictures (can't link or post images yet):

The case doubles the weight of the tablet, but I was expecting that and I wanted the better padding for protection.

Seems to be a very durable case and I don't see myself ever looking for an alternative.
[Thinkpad Tablet Accessories] twospirits:
Here you go...
[Thinkpad Tablet Accessories] seltzered:
Just wanted to give a quick review of the non-executive version of this case. I got it for ~23 bucks on overstock a few weeks ago.

The inner section of it is exactly like the pictures above, and the outer section basically is a leather slab cover that attaches via velcro to one side of the tablet, and has a small (albeit weak) magnet on the other side to stay on.

Overall, I'm okay with it considering there werent too many options, but I wish there was something a bit lighter or something that just covered the front (the thinkpad's already got a meaty backside). It's weird that this thing is almost as thick as my macbook.
[General Questions and Answers] Originalme8:
Hello Everyone,

I have supposedly rooted my new Galaxy Nexus (CDMA) phone. All the apps that request root on the phone are able to get access to it, also if I use "adb shell" and then use the "su" command to switch to root it will grant me access, albeit without ever prompting me on the phone. However when I try to use the "adb root" command from the terminal window it gives me an error of "adbd cannot run as root in production builds".

I need this function to work, but cannot seem to find my way around it. I am not the only one I know who has seen this, but we cannot seem to figure it out. I was hoping to get some suggestions? Any thoughts?

[General Questions and Answers] ocd_amp:
Old Thread and that attitude certainly wasn't the nicest but incase someone else Google Searches this...

First you need to decompile the kernel.

In your Root of decompiled files, find a file called

default.prop

Edit it with Root Explorer or ES File Explorer

Find these lines

ro.secure=1 and change it to ro.secure=0

ro.debuggable=0 and change it to ro.debuggable=1

Save and recompile. If this is already too complicated for you, then you can read about what decompiling and compiling is. Search it.

Your Kernel is likely stock kernel and will not allow this change if you don't have USB Debugging option available within your ROM.

If you have this option, then enable it. It is possible that you have half root - Unlocked boot loader, but Kernel is from a stock ROM. You can still get shell access. You just won't get it while your System is Mounted if you don't have USB Debugging enabled and you plugged into Windows while your System is running. So Reboot into Recovery, and then go into your ADB Directory and type

adb start-server

adb devices (see if it lists the connected device) if yes then type

adb root (It should say adb is already running as root)

then type

adb shell

you can use the ls command to list all the directories.

cd to change into them. like cd /sdcard then ls and so on.

and cd / to go back.

Look up basic linux shell commands.

and then you can do whatever you want. List of ADB Noob Commands

I just got my girlfriend a lg optimus pad and was wondering about rooting and if there are any custom roms out there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] govtcheez:
I've been having issues after my OTA update with my phone not connecting to 4G very well. While I'm driving, or moving around in a 4G area, it disconnects (I'm guessing losing signal from one tower) and then scans for a signal and doesn't automatically re-connect. If I turn the radio off and back on, it scans and connects. If I leave it alone, it takes a while for it to reconnect.

I'm pretty sure that I didn't have this problem on EG30 or 31. Unless I'm imagining this, I'm pretty sure that it was seemlessly moving from one tower to the next without ever disconnecting, unless there wasn't any 4G coverage in the area.

Is this normal or is my phone messed up? I've since installed EL13 and still having the same issue. I'm going to try going back to stock to see if that helps.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] govtcheez:
That's strange. I could have sworn that wasn't the case before the update, but I guess I could be wrong. Does yours connect right away when going from tower to tower, or does it take a while? It seems like it almost always fails on the first scan, then re-scans 10-15 minutes later and then connects.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jrtallen:
I've noticed that since the 2.3.6 update, my phone no longer will reconnect to the 4G data network when the screen is off, and wifi calling is active. In order to keep wifi calling active, I set my phone's wifi sleep policy to "Never". Here is the exact scenario:

1) At home or work, my phone activates wifi calling when it connects to the local wifi network. This causes it to disconnect from the cellular voice and data networks.

2) At some point, I leave the wifi area while my phone is in my pocket and the screen is off.

3) The next time I turn the screen on, I see that the 4G icon is gone, but immediately appears as the phone connects.

While this may be a minor inconvenience, it means that all services that rely on the data network (Gmail, Skype, etc) will fail until the screen has been turned on once. Has anyone else observed this?
