[HTC Inspire 4G] Schmidty850:
What do you mean "what MIUI did"?

Also I don't get why you won't touch MIUI. It is absolutely b-e-a-utiful and fast. Slap on a custom launcher (I use GoLauncher) and it's even better.

I have played around with flashing all sorts of ROMS, I've flashed RcMix, ARHD, CM7, and MIUI. So far MIUI has been my favorite and except for some apps here and there that I wish I could have on MIUI I am perfectly content. I love how MIUI is such a departure from the norm. Even just the settings are made beautiful. I really liked my old stock, I liked RcMix, but there is just something about MIUI I really like.

And trust me, I have read all over the MIUI mod thread and some of the stuff is cool. I just wish that these developers like HTC, MIUI, Motorola, etc. could come together and create a cluster of all their OS's and make one really bad ass android interface in which they would put on every android phone which could reduce fragmentation (and each developer would get royalties and the like)
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrhaley30705:
They took	CM's code for CM7, added their own tweaks, then made it closed source. Basically they took an open source project, and privatized it. That is not what open source is about. It is as close to outright theft as you get.

AS for not touching it, not any more. I used it for almost 6 months and loved it. To continue it's use would be a slap in the face to the CM team, anyone building off of CM's code, and really any developer building properly off of any open source code.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Schmidty850:
Yes but that's not neccesarily a reason to stop using it, whether wrong or not
[HTC Inspire 4G] Joshp406:
So dude, GIVE UP. What you're looking for, you ain't getting. END OF STORY. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBzJGckMYO4

wrong is wrong. Period. Regardless of public opinion or social status.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrhaley30705:
Ok,ze. Op's request was answered, time to shut it down, lock it up, and call this over.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Oh yes it is. You don't steal someone else's code and then make money off of it. Respect is huge and they have none from any real developer here. Also if you want a little extra reason. The have built in adds and they phone home and have it set up to only do it when the screen is off so people won't know.

Honor is a huge thing with me. They have none.

It also is nothing more then an IPhone knock off.

[Acer Iconia A500] al2fast:
Didn't see any threads in the Iconia area so figured I'd post. Been using it for a couple days now and like it a lot. Has 6 clips that hold the iconia in the case real good. Bottom 2 clips detach to allow the bottom to pop out and sit in one of the 3 stand grooves in the cover. The cover has a clip on it too that holds on real good. Case is made of black, leather-like material and the inside is a gray felt material. Also, all ports are accessible. Due to use of clips instead of a full enclosing style "sleeve," it allows full access to the edges of the screen, unlike the Acer case which came with my tab and I don't like. For $20 with free shipping which took a week, I give it 9/10, only because it's advertised as leather and it's a leather blend material which doesn't bug me.

I cannot post links yet so go to Amazon and search for Vipertek Iconia a500 for some pics.

edit: forgot to add cutouts on the back for the speakers and the camera.
[Acer Iconia A500] metpolds:
The link posted by azoller1 in reply to my original post is the correct link to Amaz. Ordered it on 11/12/11 and it arrived by USPS on 11/16/11. It looks, it feels and it smells like leather on the outside whilst the inner lining is micro-fill. It has 6 "clips", (looking at it in landscape view) 2 are at the top L & R corners, 2 are at the bottom L & R corners and the final 2 are on the L & R sides about one third of the way down from the top. When it is closed up the A500 engages in all 6 clips. When it is fully closed every "input" (power,hdmi,usb full, usb "B", on/off button, volume up/down, rotation lock and even the sd card cover) are all accessible. To operate the A500 you have to "unhook" the bottom 2 clips and slide the bottom edge of the A500 into one of the "ridges" where it rests at the required angle. Although I am not an acomplished photographer I hope the attached photos will show that.

Having used it for a couple of days I am growing to like it especially at the price I paid.......THERE LIES THE RUB!......... When I bought it on 11/12/11 it was quoted on Amaz's site as $9.93 plus $4.99 shipping and even without seeing it I thought I couldn't go wrong at that price. On Tuesday 11/15/11 I went to Amaz's to check on delivery date and ........SHOCK HORROR........ found that the price was now shown as $19.98 plus shipping. Long story short I checked my bank account and found that the original price quoted me of $9.93 plus shipping was what had been charged to my debit card. There was no notice on the web site when I bought it that it was a special offer or some such so I can only conclude that for a short time a mistake had been made by the selling company.

At the price I paid I would heartily recommend this case BUT I am not certain I would at twice the price. But if you like the look of it, look around and see if you can find a reduced price.

I have it as well. I have had mine 7 days. I frikkin love this thing. Nice, thin, unobtrusive and best of all has a look of great quality. Get one guys they are the shiz.
[Acer Iconia A500] melcali:
just ordered it yesterday.. there are also others that are the same just rebranded for different prices.

the thing that really differentiates this from other cases is that it doesnt cover the bezel all around

---------- Post added at 08:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

err.. the one i actually ordered was the vertek branded one..
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
This is also the one I have my tablet in.there are two flaws.

1, I do not like the forword type stand does not lay in my Lap as easly as the fold back type.

2.it needs to have some color good tech stuffs always targeted for men.grrrrr.

I did order the red crown case I just hope the quality is even half this viper case.
[Acer Iconia A500] boystuff:
grabbed the Blurex one on amazon. it was 17.00 usd couldn't complain judging by the pics in your post here, it's identical probably the same manufacturer just a different sales brand stamped into the leather. and i concur the quality of these cases are great.
[Acer Iconia A500] TLSS:
I've been using the junky old stock Acer rubber case for a while now. Looks like a much better bang for the buck from what I can see. Thanks for the heads up!
[Acer Iconia A500] melcali:
just a heads up.. these cases(doesnt matter what brand) all say black but the inside flap is actually a grey color(obvious because of pics), verteks has one with the inside being all black, which i prefer. so if you prefer black/black, get the verteks branded one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobreaka:
what title says

i find that camera apps from android are lacking compare to the iphone. the cameras on our phone are pretty good but i feel that the apps arent even putting the camera to its full potential.

are there any apps that allow multi touch to focus and lock exposure?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobreaka:
anyone know?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] n1ckr0th:
There is an awesome (non-root might i add) app for those who don't like your info being shared with anybody called PDroid that can be found here;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1357056

Among its huge feature arsenal is the ability to block app's from seeing your IMED, SIM details, sms/mms, etc. It consumes no battery life at all and is very customizable. the only downside is that you must make a patch for each device and each ROM. i took the liberty of making said patch for the Ba2tF CM7 ROM and have posted the CWM-flashable zips for your enjoyment. all you have to do is boot into CWM and flash. if for some reason you don't want your phone to be awesome you can flash the "restore" zip and the original files will be back.

I am not responsible for literally a single thing you do with these files. have fun.

If you found this helpful or just enjoyable to read the thanks button is somewhere down to the right.. but whatever you do, don't hold down shift while you press it! ;)

UPDATE: PDroid is not yet compatible with ICS/CM9 but the dev is actively working on supporting this, so sit tight and i will update the OP when he does so.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] IUH1991:
Since it works on Ba2tf, would it also work on weekly/nightly builds?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] n1ckr0th:
It is very rom specific, i wouldnt use my zip for Ba2tF with that rom.

Sent from my MB860
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MiZrY:
It does work just fine on Neutrino ROM which is based on the weekly builds.

I have created patches for Dorians Redpill, Ba2tf, Neutrino GT/GT+ will also be creating one for EE shortly. I will post the patches for the API for PDroid shortly.

BTW this privacy app is awesome! You just need Linux to create a API patch for your phone.

EDIT: I had to create a new post to add the attachments..... kept failing every time I tried to add here. See post below.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] MiZrY:
Below are the API patches required to run PDroid for the specific ROMs. RESTORE patch included to remove the patch if it doesn't work. lol Don't hold me responsible if they don't work or if something funky happens..... but it worked for every ROM I have tested it on.

Keep in mind you don't need to be rooted to run the app, but you need to be rooted to run the patch. :rolleyes:

EDIT: Also remember if your ROM ever gets updated odds are you will have to create a new patch for the newest version.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] WiredPirate:
I got a PM from the dev today who had some good news.. Previously the patch maker was only available for Linux..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xhazk:
Thanks for the info.

Setting up to try my hand at rom devel soon; once cm9 is a bit more stable ill build from git. Have compiled source for "true" linux but not android.

Since I'm making it security centric, this could be a nice addition. Will be researching further.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] OSNPA:
I have been using LBE Privacy Guard, which revokes these permissions and more on an app-by-app basis. It's not ROM specific but a little time-consuming setting up rules for each app.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
I don't have access to Linux unfortunately at the moment. Can someone make a patch for redpill-cm7?

Sent from my unlocked Motorola Atrix.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] georgelopez:
You don't need Linux. There's a link for the Windows version a few posts above mine.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] schwann:
If you look on his original post (the developer's), you will see that there is a bug in the windows autopatcher. So yes...I do need Linux.

Oops...looks like I had someone on ignore who's done the work for me. Will send over a thanks anyways. Bygones.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] georgelopez:
You're absolutely right. Seems like the developer updated his OP right before I posted. Although, it does say to check back soon.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zhuchella:
ToALL

Can anybode made a patch for Neutrino ROM 1.4-S ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
What exactly does this do? If it's good, I might as well cook it in Neutrino ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zhuchella:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
WOW, that's pretty sick!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] n1ckr0th:
it is! if you do bundle it make sure to also bundle the app or put a link to the market or something so users know!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xhazk:
Semi OT but...

If you have a cd drive, dvd drive, or usb drive you can run pretty much any nix distro in a "live cd" environment.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
My update will have the tweak and the app integrated :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] barebear:
I can't thank you enough for the patch n1ckr0th. I've been using droidwall and an app called permissions to stop other apps from sending my data out. Now it's up to me who sees my real data. I understand that a lot of companies make their livings on advertisements and the like, but why do they have to know about and acquire my personal data for me to play a game or run a process that allows me to work more effectively. It's issues like this that make me want to learn how to code for android and write some great apps that won't steal everything on your device that it can see. Hmm, actually that's a good idea. Thanks again.

B.B.

i'm glad i could help, i ask myself that as well. they don't need my location, or numbers i've contacted and the like, they better appreciate the memory i already gave them on my phone! ;)

[Atrix 4G Android Development] zombies1337:
I made the mistake of flashing the Ba2tF zip on the Feb 20th weekly. I was stuck at the boot screen so I flashed the store file to no avail. I'm still stuck at boot. Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Mphill46:
Hmm try wipe cache and reboot?? If that doesn't work I don't know... I would think you may have to reflash the rom, but I can't see why using the restore file provided wouldn't fix it. Hopefully someone will chime in and give their opinion.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] raymasky:
can someone post an ICS version for Turls ROM ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] skakz:
anyone using PDroid with latest CM7 Nightly's Build? I can't manage to run it properly.

I've patched the rom with 0.3 patcher version (because with the 0.321 i've got boot loops) but after rebooting and installing pdroid phone is very very slow and unresponsive. Also the home launcher was crashy. After restore was everything as before..

thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] n1ckr0th:
PDroid is not yet compatible with ICS, the dev is actively working on this. when he updates i will update the OP with the new patch.

CM7 nightlies and weeklies haven't been working with PDroid, there is a bad hand-off somewhere in the process that makes it unbootable. i'd either sit tight and wait for another stable release such as the 7.2 RC or wait for compatibility with ICS/CM9. also having to repatch a nightly every night or even for each weekly would be pretty annoying.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] trashbytes:
Why don't you use the permission management which already exists in cm7?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] n1ckr0th:
that causes force closes in apps and general incompatibility, where as PDroid doesn't break anything and it can be used to change the data the app requests to be null, random, etc. more privacy and more compatibility.

[Epic 4G Android Development] zman0900:
I have been trying out the various TW roms that run on MTD and have noticed some problems with the init.rc files that are being used, so I decided to create something that could be used as a base by others. I'm not sure who created the first TW rom on MTD, but they all seem to have mostly the same init.rc file, so I started from the one in tortel's EI22-Stock-ish MTD.

Things I changed:

Various changes and additions from the CM7 version

Removed plus tweaks (all of this can be taken care of elsewhere)

Added init.d support

Added support for /etc/init.local.rc

For init.d support to work, your rom must have the file /system/bin/sysinit, containing something like so:

#!/system/bin/sh

export PATH=/sbin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin
/system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/run-parts /system/etc/init.d

Every rom I've seen so far has, so it shouldn't be a problem.

How to use:

If you're not familiar with the format of the boot.img file that is flashed to the boot partition, check my other thread here. Basically is contains the zImage, and two ramdisks: boot and recovery. The zImage contains the kernel and a ramdisk: initramfs. The init.rc is located in the boot ramdisk, so I will distribute a copy of that. You can put this into your rom or kernel by deconstructing your boot.img with extract_boot.sh, replacing the boot.cpio.gz with this, then rebuilding the boot.img with mkshbootimg.py

Download:

boot.cpio.gz - 1.2 MB
[Epic 4G Android Development] toadlife:
Thank you. What I need is what changes the the kernel are needed to make a kernel work with MTD. I tried comparing my source tree with Tortell's but he had so many tweaks that it was hard to know what was really needed to make it work.

[HTC Incredible S] wzu7:
what's the diff. Odex & DeOdex ?

anyway welcome to the Inc S thread..
[HTC Incredible S] suaji:
Welcome Bro Aamikam to IS thread and also thanks..

Actly what is diff Odex & DeOdex?..

Upload screenshot pls..

Thanks..
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
odexed apks have the classes.dex extracted and optimized and placed on the outside with the apk ... so instead of the normal apk that contains everything ... you have the apk with the resources(pngs and xmls) and and a <appname>.odex which is an extracted and optimized classes.dex(java part of the app) ... odexing theoretically also saves space on the data partition as dalvik cache is not built for odexed apks and the .odex files are used directly ... most stock roms are odexed as the company docent expect you to edit any of the system files anyway :D

hope that helps ... id go with the odexed rom unless your applying a theme ... in that case you'd have to odex the themed apks ... an easy job with the dsixda kitchen :)

verdict: go for the odexed rom:D

@MIK team: nice job boys ... thanks for the rom and welcome back to the inc s forum :)
[HTC Incredible S] aamikam:
hope u guys are will be happy with this rom... i know we still need to change the 3g icons from evdo to 3g... but over all this should be working more than fine on the inc s.

another quick note about odex/deodex and themes... if the theme did not have any smali edits... it will work as is... but to save space u will want to delete the classes.dex from the apk.

have fun guys.... hopefully an update will popup in a week max.

and so far i believe we can try to stick to u guys never needing to fully wipe.
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
good to know bro ... full wipes are annoying >.< especially when you have big games and apps :P

[HTC Incredible S] aamikam:
it should have it but i didnt look into that yet... there will be an update coming up sooner than later (max a week is my guess) so i will see about adding a patch for u for the RTL thing.

i cant comment on quads... cuz i dont own that phone... but all widgets are there and working last time i checked.

im happy u like... i didnt add that into tweaks.. but there is an app in the market that does that for u... i forgot the name, maybe someone else have it in mind.

[Motorola Photon 4G] rdsiam:
About once a week I lose my 3G data connection, but it's starting to happen more frequently; twice today. Sometimes toggling airplane mode will "wake up" the 3G and sometimes not. Usually, I just reboot the phone. Any idea why this might be happening and how to stop it? Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Are you running juice defender? Did you adjust any settings under "battery and data". The photon has a feature that will kill 3G when the phone is sleeping it really helps with battery life. To keep 3G at all times make sure your device is set to "performance mode". (This is only if you've messed with it. Last suggestion, go to "wireless & networks" then mobile networks, and network mode set to AUTOMATIC.
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
you get the unable to register mobile ip error? as ive been getting that for a good bit thee past few weeks
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
I've gotten that when the stupid towers go down in my area a few times but I'm able to call/text.
[Motorola Photon 4G] rdsiam:
Nope, don't have Juice Defender installed, and mobile networks is set to Automatic. I'll try the performance mode and see if that fixes the issue.

Thanks for your help! :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrinehart93:
Give it some coffee to keep it awake ;) And shabby, my friend was getting the "unable to register mobile IP" error right out of the box when he got his photon... he ended up returning it. He got another photon and it did the same thing, so he got an iPhone 4S and it apparently doesn't happen anymore. Idk what the issue could be.
