Hey, I'm currently running the ROM on my EVO 4G, its so sweet, smooth and awesome! I just have one problem, I need Spanish language and there's only English and Chinese (or something) on the ROM. So I wanted to know which files or if its possible to pull from a different sense 3.0 ROM?

Thanks!

Hello, I'm having a problem using Titanium Backup. Whenever I go on it, it states that it could not acquire root privileges:

Anyone know how to fix this? A quick search turned up nothing.

I would suggest the following, since both Titanium Backup and Busybox Installer think you aren't rooted:

1. Uninstall Titanium Backup.

2. Reroot your phone.

3. Reinstall Titanium Backup.

They pair and the audio is great but the Play/Pause/Next/Previous buttons do not work when using programs like Spotify but they do work when using Google's Music app. They used to work fine with my Sprint Epic 4G.

I install TWRP using the Kindle Fire Utility v.4(real simple for dummies like me). I see the triangle during boot, how do I open TWRP. Where can I find info on what each option does. Like I said am new to all this.
[Kindle Fire General] tes5884:
when you restart the kindle and the triangle is on display, hit the power button a couple of times. That will get you into TWRP. Regarding the different options don't mess with anything unless you clearly know what you're doing!

Install- is where you flash roms/kernels etc

wipe - is where you wipe stuff :-)

don't use the twrp poweroff option, do it manually, i get stuck in fastboot mode if i use their option.

Good luck and happy flashing!!
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
When you are at the Triangle, press the power button until it turns orange and then let go.

If you use Reboot in TWRP it will reboot the device, go the Triangle and just don't touch it and it will boot into the OS automatically.
[Kindle Fire General] palmheel:
Thanks, I just wanted more detail info on options so I don't accidently screw things up, exactly what is safe on the Wipe option?.
[Kindle Fire General] seven@iimind.com:
if you are using wipe option. DON't use the wipe system! that will erase the system. and you couldn't using adb any more, until you flashed a rom in.
[Kindle Fire General] DssTrainer:
So once in TWRP, how do you get back to KF OS?

I tried Reboot -> System... then didn't touch anything when the triangle appeared.. but it just takes me back to TWRP
[Kindle Fire General] AndrewTL:
TWRP question

This should be an easy one..

Is it normal behavior with TWRP to have an 8-15 second delay with the triangle being up before the kindle fire boots? (out of powerup)
[Kindle Fire General] wyhteagle:
Yes this is normal. It gives you quite a lot of time to boot into recovery. I guess it could be shorter but I kind of enjoy the long wait as a just in case measure.

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ----------

I've found that reboot --> Power off seems to work better to get into KF OS.

Once it's powered off just press the power button once to bring it back online and than don't touch anything. You'll than see the KF boot screen.

Hopefully you didn't wipe anything important. However there seem to be some fixes for this issue.
[Kindle Fire General] DssTrainer:
Thanks. I actually used the adb method to force mode 4000 and it worked from this thread:

Have any of you Devs looked at this app? I already have a music player on my SII, so I figured I'd use Bloat Freezer to put it away, so to speak, in case I ever wanted it again. Turns out that BF doesn't see the app...

So, I went to Titanium Backup and was just going to remove it. Trouble is, TB can't remove it either. Says that it can't remove a system app. That kind of troubled me, mainly because I never installed this thing: it just showed up after the 2.3.6 update, and I can't figure out why a simple music player would be a system app.

The reason I'm a little worried about it is because it's constantly loaded in memory, regardless of how often I use Task Manager to Exit the app. And, after just finding out about CIQ and the System Manager 1.1 app, and getting rid of that, I'm leery of anything that runs without me starting it.

I might just be paranoid, but am I paranoid enough?

Bloat Freezer scans for and freezes individual apks. Titanium just loads android's list of apps of what it thinks is installed.

My guess? Sounds like the music app is really stored in another apk. Multiple apps can share an apk.

Based on my guess: bloat freezer sees the apk it is in(it scans the whole phone), but it probably has another name (could be part of google framework, or something else, who knows). Titanium sees it, but cannot freeze it because it would freeze too much other stuff.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] joegerardi:
I just got off the phone with Google support. Music 3.0.1 was part of the 2.3.6 update and cannot be completely removed from the phone as it is part of the system. In other words there is no .APK for it.

Google said they couldn't really help me with anything because my phone is rooted and they couldn't tell what ROM is on it. I offered to restore it back to the original ROM just to get rid of this thing, and that's when they told me there is really no way to do it- it's part of the system file.

To me, this is nothing more than spyware. I didn't ask for it, I don't want it, and it's not intrinsic to the operation of the phone. Android is an Open Handset Alliance package, so I don't really think Google has the right to force Bloatware down our throats.

For reasons I won't go into here, I will do anything to avoid having anything to do with Google.

So, I will still try to find a way to get rid of it. I saw one over on the

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
Hello, I have recently encountered issues with regards to 1080p video playback.

Being aware that the TF201 has 4 cores, I had expected smooth playback with no lag.

When playing media files from my Plex media server, the 1080p video files play flawlessly. Though when playing the exact same files locally from the Transformer's directory, the video plays with extreme lag and jittery.

Video Players Tested with (Results in Lag) : MX Video Player, MoboPlayer

Anyone know a possible solution?

Thanks In Advance. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Try different decoding type...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
Could you recommend any alternatives?

I've tried both software and hardware, still no solution. :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lancer3397:
I'd use bsplayer. I found it better handling large files, particularly mkv files or hi res video.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lchanmanl:
Are you using an SD card to play your video files? using a class 6 or lower card may cause studdering in HD video files. You'll want a class 10 card.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
I'm playing directly from the transformer's internal storage.

My Class 10 microSD still needs a week to come in. @_@

Would playing from the internal storage result in playback lag?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Brozono:
Is Plex transcoding for you? Perhaps check the settings there and try to match for local playback.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
Plex's playback is via DirectPlay
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
The playback is much more smooth, but the video and audio always end up out of sync
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lchanmanl:
It shouldn't. Usually internal flash storage is a lot faster than removable flash storage. I doubt ASUS would go cheap and use cheap flash storage on their device.

Do you know what type of video format you are playing? mkv is a video container, which usually hold h.264 video files and 5.1 digital sound format, but can be different.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Ask Andyx over in his thread, "what would you like to know about the prime" . He might can help you. It should be able to play 1080p files flawlessly as it's been tested as so by a few members here that have it and major reviewers. It might be your encoding. It should play with no lag or issues from internal storage or SD card. Actually been tested by major reviewer, I think Anadtech or technobuffalo, to play just as flawlessly from SD card than from internal storage.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
Not sure

The video is an MKV file

Video: MPEG4 Video (H264) 1920x1080 29.97fps [Video]

Audio: Dolby AC3 48000Hz stereo [Audio]

Size: 1.5 - 2.1GB each?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
The file AndyX played on his YouTube vid was 1080P MKV file also. Which played with no issues. I'd say run these same stats by him to compare to what he ran in his video. There's another guy here to that ran a high quality video test. His thread is called something like you got questions, I got questions. Those 2 and candy are the only ones it's seems that have a prime also already that might can help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
The only thing I can think is that the file is encoded using some odd parameters that do not jive with the Prime and the reason it works with Plex is because it's doing some kind of decoding, even if on a lower level.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lancer3397:
I'd go with that. I've seen some nutty as a fruit cake parameters on mkv's I've shared from friends. one of them just will not convert in handbrake, it looks like crap and yet played natively as an mkv file it looks fine. when I delved into the frame encoding etc it was bizarre.

I'd go with a grotty mkv file over the prime having an issue here.

On MX player, did you try all 3 coding options ( HW, SW, SW fast)? If so, try dice player trial. Almost like mx, but they have their own codecs to download.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mr_Armageddon:
Dice Player on the Market should do the trick. Works really well and plays everything I throw at it, but the "Paid" version seems to be missing from the Market at the moment due to Google Checkout issues with the developer.

Anand did a really good review testing all kinds of video codecs. He was able to play 1080p H.264 high profile streams at up to 40Mbps just fine using DicePlayer.

Video Playback: Blu-ray Quality in a Tablet
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] newtybar:
wtf, same old problems? The only reason I sold my old one and upgraded was because I thought the thing was a beast and could crunch through any video format without re encoding.

Needless to say, I'm pretty pissed at ASUS right now.

I need this tablet before I go on my trip on Jan 2.

They pretty much said they would deliver on time and have learned from the original release. NOPE.

They originally promised that the keyboard would work with newer generations. NOPE.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Expliciate:
Technically speaking, it can, the only reason why I am currently unable to do so is perhaps due to software issues. Playback is perfectly fine via media servers, but I encounter issues when playing back the same videos in local storage.

I just got ICS on my Nexus S a few days ago and it absolutely RULES!!!! I'm surprised to see the massive difference it makes to have no TW and not use Swype.

On the SGS2, I uninstalled Swype long ago because a) I don't swype and b) it was too messy for me. BUT now with no Swype there is also no dictionary, no auto-correct. All or nothing sucks. I cannot wait for ICS and I REALLY hope we get a MIUI and not ICS with TW overlaid.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:
The Samsung keyboard has auto correct and everything. It is very aggressive. You need to enable it. In the settings.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
you can also install the GB keyboard from market

it is full featured
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SwervFusion:
So when you uninstalled swipe which keyboard did you use and did you like it?

I was reading your post and got confussed because you bashed swipe and uninstalled it..then you mentioned u like having no tw, which i thought was just a interface and nothing to do with the keyboard but i could be wrong as this is my first android...

Personally i dont like the swipe keyboard..but the auto correct and dictionary can be turned off in the swipe settings..i prefer the samsung keyboard because the keys are bigger and more spaced out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heinrich:
Sorry to be unclear. I don't really know what TW does other than 2-finger zoom. That is why I said (or is it TW?). Swype made the keyboard unusable to me. And yes Samsung's keyboard which remains allows auto-correct but it tries to out-think me MUCH more than the regular Gingerbread and ICS keyboards do. The Samsung one (mentioned above is aggressive) replaces whole words and sentence sections with ones I do not intend at all, so I had to turn it off.

I guess my gripe is with Swype that it fills the keyboard with too much stuff and with Samsung keyboard because it causes me to send messages I never typed.

I am running with no Swype and no spelling / syntax correction as a result. I find I miss auto-capitalisation and auto-correct a bit, but it is a LOT better than the other 2 options.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fraz82:
There are a couple of ICS keyboards on the market, that can be installed on GB devices, and i find their prediction and auto-correct to be more intuitive than stock Gb or swype.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] coocookuhchoo:
TouchWiz is more than just the keyboard, it is the stock launcher. I personally love Swype, but I agree that the TW keyboard's autocorrect is too aggressive. If you aren't Swyping on Swype, it is probably a terrible keyboard - it isn't made to work with traditional typing. If you want to try a different autocorrect, you could try out swiftkey x, which learns how you type by looking at your past texts/emails/tweets and monitoring how you type, and autocorrects accordingly. If you'd rather a more standard keyboard, I would recommend Perfect Keyboard. It can be customized to a huge variety of layouts (iOS, GB, ICS), and has a lot of themes. It has autocorrect, too, but I did not find it to be as intrusive as TW's.

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 PM ----------

Re read your original post...realized that you clearly know what TouchWiz is. Oops...

Still try out those keyboards, though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SwervFusion:
So your actually wanting a keyboard that has auto-correct and the word predict, but you just dont like the options you currently have?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JaylanPHNX:
You should try the latest Swype beta. It's a huge improvement over the version that came on the phone. But if you don't ever type by Swyping, then maybe you should check out Swiftkey X.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] linye:
Swiftkey X is amazing. I can type spanish and english words in the same sentence and it will predict in both languages.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] metdroid:
I tried the free version and liked it, but Go keyboard is my favorite.

Go keyboard is free, very customizable, and much, much better than the stock swype or samsung keyboard.

I have been using this keyboard since it was first posted in this section on XDA and can attest that it works wonderfully, has an auto correct appropriate for my typing style, and looks bomb.

Hi everyone,

I've decided to take the plunge and flash Gingerstreak to my Steak 5. I've taken the cautious approach and decided to read the instructions, which I'm pretty confident that I understand.:)

The main step I'm having a problem with is

Will flashing them change my baseband? The reason that I'm asking is that I have a British streak and I don't really want to completely **** the radio. My current baseband is GAUSB1A131921, has anyone had any experience with flashing over the radio? Will i still get UK signal/data connectivity?

Many Thanks

Tom
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Regardless of which Gingerbread ROM you install, flashing the AMSS and DSP files will change the baseband. The baseband is like a computer BIOS in that it provides basic control to the radios. It has nothing to do with your carrier and does not inhibit the ability of the Streak to pick up your carrier's signal.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluefrog:
Just for reassurance if you need it, I'm a UK Streak user and you'll be fine.

If anything you may well find better signal strength with this baseband - not guaranteed but certainly possible.

Plug in your USB charger with the battery out and hit power. The boot logo should still come up. Once it does insert the battery before the logo disappears. Your battery should begin charging and you'll get the normal phone off battery charging logo.

Seriously, what could be coming? A 3D screen (if so, I'm not particularly interested in them). I would imagine the 1280x720 IPS screen of the Nitro is going to be as far as the technology goes for awhile to come.

I do agree that lack of Dev/hacker interest is a bit light for the Nitro at the moment...But the phone only hit the streets Dec 5th and we've already got root, so that ain't nuttin.

You played with the Nitro and Skyrocket, where? If it was at a store, then unfortunately you saw the bloated down version of the Nitro. I assure you when you debloat the Nitro it makes quite a difference, with root and couple of tweaks it's even better still.
