Hello people, Merry Christmas

This is my first post here...been here from past 4 weeks or so...

i recently got my dads used up x10 mini...done a few thing so far.

Thing is i am about to make a new rom not entirely new...few bits from here and there. Few days ago i found an thread where a guy asked if he can replace the stock blue waves background , i didnt bookmark that page and i searched all of XPERIA X10 Mini Android Development sub forum did'nt find it here

so people how do i replace that image.

I read a little bit i have to replace that stock image with ours which was located somewhere.........

AND people my another question what is a kernel ?

what i understood is it is a piece of software which directly interacts with hardware just like drivers in our pcs

My Works so far

1] GingerDX |v017| Gingerbread 2.3.7 - found that it cam is not as good compared to what was with stock ROM, power consumption was high, and i personally didnt like some components of interface.

2] Next was MiniCM7-2.1.6 Gingerbread 2.3.7/CM7.2 - same as previous camera was crappy, power consumption was a little less compared to first case and interface was good liked that over scrolling effect and loads of other features [i just wished my x10 mini turned into x10] but the main PROBLEM was AWD launcher kept crashing every other time i pressed home key

3]then, installed nAa-06 kernel and again flashed Next was MiniCM7-2.1.6 Gingerbread 2.3.7/CM7.2

in between my phone got struck 2-3 times at SE screen. First time i really was really scared it was my dads phone and he would have kicked me out of the house if he found that i ruined his phone.

4] then tried a simple 2.1 rom was very basic.

Atlast reverted back to stock rom now in the process of creating my own rom.Wish me Luck !

Thanks for the information! It's always great to see people add to the choice and quality of our phone. I hope people show their appreciation for your work!

When you need testers etc. just let us know, I'm available.

For the ROMS, some things I like about the stock ROM are; how smooth and clean the UI is, no ROM yet does this as well in my view, everything on the stock ROM works perfectly especially the camera which is amazing (while simple). I admit that the newer features in Android (and Cyanogen) are too good to leave behind though, as well as the better memory management in 2.3 etc.

Good luck!

1] How to replace the stock blue waves background in the 2.1.1.c.0.0 stock rom ?

2] What is a kernel ?

i think u should edit framework-res.apk /system/framework/
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytab1:
I find swipepad amazing, but it fails to turn up some of the times upon swiping. I tried placing the zone at bottom (so as to avoid conflict with phone's other swipes) but still occasionally the pad doesn't turn up at all.

Wrote to dev, and was told that the app has to be made to work on large screens (I'm using galaxy note). But no actions upon it by dev. I purchased all associated apps but all waste.

Does anyone know how to make the app work RELIABLY?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techvir:
It works great for me with galaxy note at the default dpi. Never failed.

However if u change the dpi from 320 to lower values it does not always invoke the app. The reason is that the zone becomes smaller with smaller dpi

Do you use a lower dpi?

I did mail the dev about giving an option to let the user decide the size of the zone but no reply

Also enable the option to have it running in the taskbar. This prevents the system from killing it. ( i have never had to do it as killing by system never happened in my usage. )

I also found that having lower rt and lt coners invoke the app the best.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytab1:
Didn't change dpi.

When you say lt and rt what does it mean?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytab1:
Ok, you mean left and right. Got it.

I think it fails to invoke at times as Android functions and various apps functions too work with the same swipe actions.

Bottom zones are more reliable for the same reason, there are a few times when there is a meaning to up swipe in Android or apps. (scroll up us not an option at times, as in home screen or in dialer)

Bottom left and right zone means you are making a diagonal swipe, which again is not very common in Android or apps as an action.

I'm just guessing with these explanations here. I'm rather confused by dev's response that there needs to be some work done regarding large screen devices.

Which device? Doesn't happen with me
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_Biz:
The app is bugged and never updated. If you hide pads, they show up at random. Also the app needs customizations to select. The black plain background sucks imo and 1 default sound does too.

I bought all the add-ons for it and kinda regret it. They aren't worth the money and the app fails imo when compared to wave launcher.

[Fascinate General] sageDieu:
I've got a good IRL friend who has been getting into development recently, he goes by the handle "firstEncounter" here, on twitter, rootzwiki, etc.. He has a Droid X and has developed ICS from source for them; a quick look through this thread will show you that he knows what he's doing.

I'm posting this because with the recent boom in galaxy nexus upgrades and all of the fascinate people leaving for that, plus my friend getting into development and wanting to do some more work for other phones, I wanted to ask if anybody here who has an extra phone or is going to upgrade to the Nexus would be willing to donate a Fascinate to him to help further development. He will mostly work in ICS roms, one of the things he's working on with the Droid X is the new MIUI v4 which is based on ICS, so if he had a Fascinate he would surely bring that to us as well.

I'll get him to post here with more information as to how you can contact him and whatever, feel free to grill him to make sure he's not just another Enyo.

We are both 16 years old, except he's smarter/more motivated than me. I'm posting this mainly to vouch for him since you guys know me more.

Here's an article featuring him on Droid-Life.

[General Questions and Answers] aim25:
I have been using ADW Launcher for quite some time and it's great. So recently I decided to get ADW Launcher EX. The problem is that I can't seem to find the option/theme/preset that will make my main dock look as it is described on the market (second preview image on the market).

Or at least I'd like to have the main dock look like the default on for ADW Launcher.

Thanks ahead of time for your responses. I'd rather just try to find an answer on google, but I honestly don't know what to search.

Wow bummer. The inability to modify the audio (for music) is quickly turning into a deal breaker for WP7. I found two versions of the Sound Enhancer in xap files but I couldn't side load either of them since I don't have HTC hardware. Does the Nokia music app offer some kind of equalizer?

Sound Enhancer

Seems there is not much out there for any WP7 phones.

I have the HTC Sound Enhancer on my HD7 and it has never given me grief.

Alot of people deleted it and tried to reinstall it and got jammed when they removed it from marketplace.Some did this because they thought it was an upgrade.My only issue is the volume not being loud enough with stock earbuds. My old Windows Mobile 6.5 Samsung Omnia II had a few neat registry Tweeks to help in all areas Volume And Sound Enhancing.I assume there is something in the WP7 Registry somewhere that could help you with these issues, but they are above my knowlege.. Try looking at a few of the Roms developed here and see if they have what you seek..

Thanks for all your help with this. Before I go into detail about what is and isn't working, can you tell me if the sound enhancer feature is part of the HTC hub app? If so, how do I access it?

Update: So I'm assuming having the HTC hub installed shows HTC apps in the marketplace, etc.? Either way, sound enhancer is nowhere to be seen. I can get your xap and the other two I have for it running with the emulator, but it won't install to my Focus S. This f#%&ing sucks. :'(

This is probably old news here to some, but I'm having an issue I think only the XDA wizards can help me solve.

I found an app for playing starcraft on Android: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.drodin.stratagus

But it needs some data file or files from the starcraft disc itself to play. The app description has a website that supposedly provides instructions for getting these files, but the link is now dead :( I'm hoping someone here has been through the setup process and can help me

I've tried both .mpq files that Starcraft installs, INSTALL.EXE from the disc, and using Stargus for Windows to extract the data from the disc but it fails in the extraction.

This is my Android-gaming holy grail right now. Anyone out there with more knowhow than me?
[Android Apps and Games] vegasjoe:
Let me know if you figure it out. I'm trying to do the exact same thing with Warcraft II. I installed it on my PC and copied the entire C:\Program Files\Warcraft II BNE folder to my HTC Flyer Tablet's SD card but Stratagus doesn't like it. I also tried copying the entire Warcraft II CD to my SD card and pointing Stratagus to it and still no likey. From what I understand it's the exact same process for Starcraft. So excited to try this! It's been so many years!

If I figure out before you I will post back and let you know.

..it looks like the developer's site thats down hosts a conversion tool that converts the files on the CD into the format the app needs. I found a work-around by doing a Google search on "Stratagus Android" and I took the sixth link down (on Filestube). I own both CDs for Starcraft and Warcraft II and this links to the already converted files for both (not uploaded by me). Until the developer's site is back up this should suffice. Stratagus now loads Starcraft and Warcraft for me, but no sound.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeEx:
To be a little more helpful.

All custom ROMs have CarrierIQ removed/disabled.

There are however, inert .so (library) files that must be kept in order to have a booting ROM.

These are what CIQ detectors find.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugothakd:
Why not replace them with empty files?

sent from my always aosp epic
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qstarin:
This is just an educated guess. But an .so file is a linked library. So, there are parts of code that link to these files and call functions in them - functions that are normally part of the CIQ logging. Some function has to be there to be called, or else the calling code would likely fail. When MikeEx says there are "inert" so files in place of the normal files, that probably means a dev has stripped out the CIQ code in those function calls and left them there doing nothing, instead of recording data for CIQ. But there still needs to be an empty function there to call or other code in the OS that calls these functions would break.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicvega:
Thank you for the informative replies. Makes sense that directories left behind would be needed and be detected as CIQ. Thanks again and my apologies for posting in the wrong section.

Voodoo Carrier IQ detect seems to be the most thorough app out there. Dont trust sprint or anyone for that matter. It costs nothing but a little time for some knowing or Peace of mind like Marcusants post it will be there all the time.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
Most EI22 roms, including my own, have built around K0nane's ciq removal process. As mentioned, several files must remain with remnants that the detector may find. What you may not quite understand, is that the potentially malicious CIQ is much more integrated the already-Samsung-modified Android system.

In short, full removal of dead (trust me, it's dead) remains from the entirety of the system is much more involved than you may think and more likely to cause problems than to give you peace of mind.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
The thing that messes up the score on the Voodoo detector is calls to Sprintandroidextensions.apk. If you remove or freeze that file you can get consistent scores of 70 but you will not be able to update PRL or profile and it will cause some problems with Visual Voicemail initializing. If K0nane says it's gone, then it's gone. The detector doesn't know how to look for apps actually sending information which they no longer do.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigOnes69:
If you read through what it says about packages, drivers, Kernel, etc.. you can see with most of the ROMS that there is nothing in the critical areas and nothing active and the Carrier IQ removal tool posted does neuter this thing by slicing off the balls but it still leaves the penis. Goodby IQ have fun in court.
