root prompt?

I really appreciate your reply, pointed me in the right direction. Only now I guess I'll have to use a terminal emulator. Oh well, it will probably be fun! Thanks again.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diver47591:
Thanks to all the cool devs and members I figured out how to use terminal emulator to boost in-call volume and now as a noob I am excited to learn how to do other cool things to my Fascinate with it. Suggestions and commands?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
I'm certainly no expert but I'd recommend reading a little bit about Linux/ADB, it'll help make sense of the commands you see in tutorials and guides that involve using ADB or the terminal emulator. There's something oddly satisfying to me about doing the few simple things I know how to do in ADB/terminal as opposed to using an app or dragging and dropping files.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electric bill:
Using the terminal emulator is fine if you have great eyesight and/or need to do something while away from the computer. I just about need a magnifying glass to read the screen. Yes, I realize that I can increase the font size, but at the cost of line length. Also, typing out long commands on the tiny keyboard can be tedious.

I prefer ADB when I'm doing anything significant. Plus, it's easier to copy/paste commands from web pages etc.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperEscape:
Hello All,

The topic says it all.

I am having Samsung Galaxy S2 with Cyanogen Mod which i recently updated to nightly build 7-11162011-NIGHTLY.

Even with this update and with the stable build whenever I go to the market to install Google Maps and Latitude, it always this application is not available in your country, which us kinda hard to believe.

Interestingly remaining within the very same country I can install and use Google Maps and Latitude Symbian version on my old Samsung Omnia HD i8910.

So does anyone know or have anyone tried to install all such google apps with country restrictions.

Thanks for your support.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joaquin.mik:
Try using Market enabled app, its on the market but you need root access for it (I guess you have, if you have custom ROM)

It allows to fake the location to Market app, bypassing the location restrictions. Just open the app, press and hold the Network/Location you wish to fake and select fake the provider. Then just go to market app, restrictions should be gone.

Its very useful for this weird cases.

Hope it helps.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] george1983c:
i was wondering, since the launch of the official ics for our sony arcs is only around the corner, would there be a way to include the Google beam function into our phones,

Ive read that there is nfc adapters but i don't know if they would work for our devices or of any additional apps may be needed for then to function

http://thesmartsense.com/15701

would be sweet if we could make use of this function

any ideas, im a bit of a noob
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zonetrooper90:
I read that there is coming MicroSD cards with NFC... so if the software at some point wil support that, it is possible...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mesho Arc:
I don't see what's the point of nfc if it's not secure 100%, I saw a tv report about cyber robbery, which someone can steal ur credit card info with a small device hidden in a woman's hand bag or maybe jeans pocket.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ndrs:
That would be great news. Although NFC is still kinda of a gimmick right now, i can see it more widespread. Doesn't Visa Paywave also work with NFC?

I'm still kinda reluctant to use it though, looking at the security issues.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terra-nova:
That's good news. I hope to see new sd cards soon, or another way to use nfc with arc

On the SleeperROM thread in the Development Forum when I click the link to download "Full Featured 1.0.11 - CLEAN SLATE" or "Slim Essentials 1.0.11 - CLEAN SLATE" it opens a new page that just says "invalid file". I currently have the old SleeperROM and would really like to update to this new one. Any fixes? Or could someone address this in the SleeperROM thread since I don't have enough posts to bring it up there. :)

[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
is there a way to mod the camera flash so it lets me use it even if the battery is really really low...I want to set the threshhold at 0 percent...sometimes...I just need to take a pic...and 20 percent is more than enough for one quick flash for a pic.
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
anyone? please???
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
When does it prevent you from using the flash? I've used mine at less than 20% but have had wifi, gps and data connection turned off. I wonder if unchecking the power saver and efficiency boxes would help?

EDIT: Okay, I see what you mean. I finally got it to say the flash couldn't be used because the battery level is too low. I turned off power saving and it still didn't work. I tried ProCapture which I like a lot because it doesn't compress the images thus better quality. It has a "torch" option on its flash menu so I tried that. The flash stays on continuously in that mode, even with a low battery. I took a shot in total darkness and it didn't seem to work. the flash was on but no picture? Maybe with some light it would work? ProCapture is free to try so you might want to try it to see if that would work under normal night conditions. I guess it won't work in total darkness like the auto flash will. :confused:

Another edit: I noticed that the flash was disabled right at 15% so I did some searching and found this: With root explorer (or any rooted file explorer), go to sys/camera_led_status/low_cap_limit. There you will find the number 15 for 15%. I tried to change this to 5 but the file is locked and I don't know enough to unlock it, rename it and then change it through adb. I think I read that you can't do this through root explorer. Maybe someone with knowledge of how to do this will know how to do it. I'm sure it is relatively simple and a zip file could even be written to change it. At least we now know where the setting is!
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
Yes thats exactly what I did in root explorer in sys/camera_led_status/low_cap_limit, I set it to 5, 1, 0, did not make any difference. Also Its retarded that you cannot use flash while you're in a call....if you talking to someone and trying to take a picture it says you cannot use flash since you're in a call....wtf does that have to do with the flash!!! There should be a file somewhere in the sense UI system to change these settings, If anyone has found anything please share...or if you can think of something please share as well...

I actually like the dialer and contact aspect of sense UI and how it integerates and automatically finds linked friends, how it updates friends status in facebook and twitter, (although they still need to integrate google plus)...all the other stuff of sense I do not like...I've changed to ADW ex...and widget locker...

I doubt there's a way to get that stuff with a senseless rom since its so integerated into the system...If there is I would flash another rom in a sec and just install that aspect of sense....
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
so apparently I can't use flash under 20% battery...under a certain temperature and when I'm in a call...So basically don't use flash....lol....I messed around with files under sys/camera_led_status which I believe controls temperature and battery limitations and also /sys/android_camera_awb_cal which I believe limits flash while you're in a call...I backed up deleted the directories and rebooted but they came right back...is this part of the kernel...I believe this requires S-off because I am unable to change this part of the system...or perhaps someone can do a quick kernel mod and take off all those limitations...
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I got a better one for you.

Turn on the wireless access point feature, activate the camera and try to use the flash.
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
you gotta be kidding me!!!!

question 1. Are the other roms the same?? I"m unlocked and rooted but on stock rom. do senceless, beastmod or revolution have the same problem...I'm guessing they would since they use the same camera apk...or maybe not, If not i'm flashing to something else RIGHT NOW.

questions 2. are we ever going to see CM9 on the amaze....screw sense I want ICS AOSP asap...
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
As I understand it, you tried to change the value to 0, 1, 5 and it still didn't work. If you looked at the file, it was still set to 15 right? I think you have to unmount the system, then pull it from your phone to your computer, alter the file and then push it back to the phone and remount the system. I have no idea how to do that. Binary is pretty good at writing little zips to do that sort of thing. I don't know if permanently changing that value will do anything though. I do know that root explorer says it changes the file but it doesn't.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I tried changing this by root explorer as well. The directory already says that it's R/W so I tried changing these values. As a result I was unable to force the changes either. I'm curious if something else changes the values back. Perhaps the camera app itself? I have no idea why the directory is set to r/w. However if you check any custom rom you will not see a /sys directory in there which makes me believe that it is in fact kernel related. That being said you would have to decompile the kernel itself, edit those values and reflash the kernel again. I might be able to do this for you however since everyone seems to have a different kernel and suffer from ORD (

o

bsessive

r

om flashing

d

isorder) I would find the work as pointless. My suggestion is to request it from your favorite developer for future kernels.
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
crap I wish I was a developer!!! instead I had to go and fix teeth and become a dentist!!! but I'm very much into electronics. Is there a book I can read to start developing?

btw where do I post the request? in development or general?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I would suggest in the forum that consists of the kernel that you are using.

Example:

If you have QuikSense then post the request in the QuikSense forum or PM the developer (in this case xboarder56) directly.

If you use Faux's kernel then post it in that thread.

No need to start a new thread for a request. However if you feel that it is absolutely necessary do it in General because the Development section is not really a section mod requests.
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
Thanks Binary. You are sooooo smart!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] faux123:
Flash limitation is controlled by kernel... Not sure why HTC decided to do that, but I can easily change this value in my next release from 20% to 10% or 5%.....

Of course if you decide to use the stock kernel, there's nothing much you can do about it... It is hardcoded in the kernel code.

Happy New Year!
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
Thanks

I think 5 percent is reasonable...also can you change the limitations for temperatureand also take off limitations when making a call and using wifi hotspot...the phone does not allow to take flash while its in low temp, when making a call or when using wifi tethering/hotspot.....thanks faux
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Yeah that's HTC for you. Always thinking ahead. You never know when your phone might be damaged by taking a picture with the flash activated while using it as a hotspot. In regards to the cold... I live in Detroit, work at night and I've used it a couple of times without issue. How cold does it have to be? I kinda wanna see this! LOL! It's gotten down to about 19F here... can't remember if I had used the camera though.

But I can understand why you wouldn't want to use the flash in cold weather. Might cause an avalanche or wake a bear or something. Yikes! Smart thinking HTC! :rolleyes:
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
lmao....it bothers me that I'm talking to my gf and she wants a picture of something i have to hang up take the picture send then call back wtf!!!!! and don't even get me started on wifi hotspot...how does this make sense????????????????? sense ui should be called retarded ui cause it does not make "sense" no pun intended.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
To HTC or to whomever it may concern,

I intend to propose a class action lawsuit pending on verification of an intentional design flaw that prevents the consumer to use the flash on the device while talking on the phone while also using the device as a wifi hotspot in subzero degree weather. I discovered this flaw while taking pictures of Bigfoot eating Santa's raindeer at the North pole just after Christmas. Unfortunately I was unable to take proof of evidence of the situation because of the mentioned designed flaw. While I was on the phone with animal control they demanded photographic evidence of the situation. Because I was not able to comply due to this design flaw the raindeer could not be saved thus there will be no more Christmas. Evidence of the intention for the mentioned limitations is the simple fact that the appropriate error messages are programed into the kernel source. However because you fail to include the wireless drivers, the kernel source cannot be utilized to compile a patch for this flaw.

Shame on you HTC.

I should be a prosecutor.
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
omg rotflmao........so basically we really can't fix the hotspot issue or the call issue!!....I'm beginning to not like HTC...and I definitely don't like sgs2...I better start designing my own phone....the N1 never had this kind of BS problems....I used it as hotspot...called...took pictures alll the way down to 0 battery and it was made by HTC...what changed??? I still like my N1 better lol...hopefully next year we'll get

new years resolution dream phone:

720p super amoled PLUS "not pentile" screen

8 or more Mega pixel back side illuminated sensor with a f/2.2 or less and a wide lense camera lense with good optics and good audio quality while recording video.

able to use flash without limitations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no flash bleed into camera sensor that requires 3 rounds of electrical tape

No screen bleed from the soft buttons

10 hour talk talk battery preferably over 2200 mAMp battery

STOCK ICS with custom amazing camera software like that amaze has now.

NO CARRIER BRANDING NO BLOATWARE. is this so much to ask

a phone that can drill and fill my patients teeth, do root canals and make crowns for them...ok maybe this last one is asking too much.

is this so much to ask???
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Ummm... yes. I believe the best you can do is create a phone with a jackhammer for a vibration mode, shove it in the patients mount and keep calling it. But of course some other people would use it for... inappropriate purposes.

[Kindle Fire General] Xplorer4x4:
Rash, instilation is easy. You need to use root explorer,copy and paste the apk in the /system/app folder then you have to set the permisions by holding down on the apk. Set the first column(vertically) so each box has an X. In the second column you need an X in the top box. The rest of the boxes need to be empty. For an example you can find the video tutorial on youtube about installing the market. Diffrent apk here but the steps are the same.
