I don't know why Google made the decision to withhold the HC source code. I think they should have released it and let the developers decide on what, if anything, to do with it. At this point, there's no point in working with HC since ICS is out there but still....

[Xoom General] olyloh6696:
They decided not to release it, because they knew devs will try to port it to smartphones and it wouldnt work well as its primarily designed for tablets.

Then ICS was to unify them therefore ICS is open source.

Hello Everyone,

Could someone please help me to suggest a way for adding Indian language support (tamil, hindi, etc..) for KPQ? I searched for it but no success. Previously when i was using firmware DDKP3 all the fonts were perfect on "activities" in contacts, browser, etc... (tamil, hindi). I would like to stay on KPQ because of its stability. I saw few threads for hindi - however really appreciate if someone can assist to support other indian languages too - Tamil, telugu, etc...

Thank you,

I am testing internet browsing on my Galaxy note

so far Wifi conexion is perfect

Thing is inside my house i will only use internet on Wifi not on phone

my Phonecompany charge me 3 euro a day no matter how long I surf web as long there is a conexion active like 1 minute websurfing, that is 90 euro a month

(yea i will change phone company soon)

Until then i need to know how to set the phone that when there is wifi it not use phone conexion

So I already tried press and hold volume and disabling data conexion

but this turn off both phone internet and wifi internet (this is useless except for the moments i just listens to music)

So How do i disable Phone internet but leave Wifi internet

for now the only solution is taking out the sim card but that is a pain everytime

Or does the phone Galaxy note does this automaticly use wifi first then if is no wifi then phone conexion?

You might be able to delete the APN settings. If your phone doesn't have the correct apn your service provider will not allow you to open a data session, only problem is if you want to use data you will have to put the apn back in
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
You can get widgets on market that will allow you to kill just the data connection and not the wifi one or you can simply edit the apn and change the user name so it can't connect or you could delete it.

I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions or experience with the Noontec A9 Smart TV Box. I was given one for Christmas and I'm attempting to root it so I can run cifsmanager and play videos from samba shares.

The trouble is it only has a power button on the device. Plugging in a USB keyboard and holding down F4 (volume down) or Home then the power button does not boot into recovery mode like it does on my Samsung Galaxy Gio.

I've Google'd for root information, or in fact any information on this device, and come up with next to nothing.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] critenau:
I'll admit I didn't try the ADB shell until you posted. Connected it up like I did with my Samsung Galaxy Gio.

Strangely the prompt is # and it is root... but the /system partition is cramfs and can't be mounted as rw?

I can remount the root partition as rw, however I copied the su binary from the sdcard to /sbin with `cat su >/sbin/su` and set permissions then rebooted the device, and the file has magically disappeared since reboot.

`mount -o remount rw /system` does not work (running mount on its own after shows that its still mounted ro).

From the shell `reboot recovery` did reboot the device but it booted up normally, not in recovery mode.

When I ran `adb reboot recovery` instead of using the adb shell, it did the same thing.

Some adb shell output:

# mount -o remount rw /

mount -o remount rw /

# mount -o remount rw /system

mount -o remount rw /system
