Yeah, this seller is just plain horrible. I've seen other people selling fake SGPs on eBay but at least they have the courtesy to mention that it is a fake that they are selling. This guy is obviously trying to pass of fakes are originals.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] eaglerock:
Saw a seller from Korea selling some for around 25$ will they be fake too ?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] cez10:
ive ordered an sgp neo hybrid from ebay uk for 10pounds and everything is as you described different packaging no screen protector etc, not sure if the original case supposed to collect dust better than a duster but this one does so i am returning it asap
[Galaxy S II Accessories] lambstone:
Korean selllers generally tend to sell legit ones. Its those that cost <$14 that you should be worried about.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] californicated:
I had a wrong label on the box (wrong colour) and the screen protector scratched very easy. Fake? Has anyone some pictures to compare between fake and original?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] lambstone:
More details. What case is it? Honestly, don't expect people to help if you can't explain in greater depth. Try going to the doctor's and tell them to heal you by just saying you're sick yet not giving any details.

To the OP

i was looking at the feedback of the seller who seemed to have sold you a fake. seems like he has 98% positive feedback(scary, if this was a reliability stat), and there seem to be alot of happy customers, do you think you were just unfortunate to get a fake or are the others being fooled to think tht the fakes are actually genuine.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] anfozy:
if the ebay seller has sold such a horrible fake i doubt the seller has any genuine sgp cases for sale, majority feedback i assume would be from people who arent all that savvy about product and packaging or people who just dont really care aslong as it some what fits and looks nice
[Galaxy S II Accessories] trhush:
that is one of the bad thing of buy on ebay, but remember to check the feedback of the seller, and confirm the quality of the item.

Good morning,

I was looking for a way to higher the brightness of leds used in CM7 for notification.

I found no option in menù, neither a proper configuration file.

How can I change it?

(No interest in changing normal led level, since it's related to screen brightness, just the one related to notification)

Thank you!
[LG Optimus 2x] avemt1:
Download the app 'Brightest Flashlight' it will make your led brght enough to see it in daylight.

I would love to know if there is any way to change the background behind the virtual keys from black to something else. I've looked through the systemUI.apk and I don't see where I would do that.

It should be easy to change the icons/background. I was thinking about replacing these icons with some better ones as I don't really like black/grey theme, but couldn't find any nice ones (wasn't looking too hard either...)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atticus182:
You could check out my thread and if there isn't one over there you like you could request something :) ill be working on new ones on Monday evening :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NitrozKC:
Its pretty easy to change the backgrounds really. As the thread above states, just drag out the ic_sysbar_highlight.png button. Open it in Photoshop, add the desired image fine you want, set it to the back and allign, save it, put it back in the res\Drawable-xhdpi folder and flash. There ya go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gfsincere:
That only changes the button press right? Instead of the blue circle when you press a virtual key you get an image? Because that's what the file they replace with the mod is for.

Just thought the Neo users on here could get behind the Neo on the Voting poll.. even the writers of the blog think the Neo is the best, but the Arc is way ahead in the poll..

Its good to hear people talk so nicely about the Neo anyway, Means I made the right choice! never doubted it for a minute.. :cool:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
I voted for the Arc, it's a lot cheaper now than back in July when I bought my Neo and it looks much better and larger screen. But I certainly don't regret my choice for the Neo.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] skyboyextreme:
Neo still got front cam for video chat , I use it :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] psyhound:
Arc's ok but somehow it feels too big for me... but who knows, maybe I would get used to that screen size.

Sent from my MT15i - Xperia Neo
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kiwiBratwurst:
Well I use skype video chat all the time so ffc was the big selling point for me.. The arc is a bit big too, if I want a big phone I would join the rest of Europe and buy a galaxy S2, however giving up usb otg when I want to use hdmi would suck... That's a Samsung fail.. The arc with no ffc is a definite Sony fail.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] testadeferro:
xperias are all similar, one has big screen but no front camera, the other has this but fails in that, I vote for neo, It s by far the best allrounder from the xperias.

Hi

I use Sense Roms, because i like the mail app, sms app, dialer etc... but I don't want Rosie... so i use GO Launcher as launcher, but it keeps getting fc's.

Anyone knows how to prevent this?

thx

btw. I'm now using seb's AIO v4.0 but I don't think it's rom related...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soronk:
does anyone else suffer from the same problem, or is it in the end an invidual problem affected by my settings?

what your experiences with other launchers? Do they never fc in a Sense Rom?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coempi:
I have tried a few launcher apps in the beginning, never had FCs actually. Try to wipe app data or reinstall app. When you first start the new launcher do not forget to tick 'use this as default' option.

Hope this helps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
i do the same thing, but with leedroid HD rom.

i actually delete rosie.apk and launcher2.apk from the system after Go launcher is installed (easy if you're S-OFF), no problems so far

you can always nandroid and try for yourself.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] super_turbo:
yh i had the same problem with go launcher, the reason is go launcher takes up a lot of ram space, which means it doesn't have enough room work so it F/C.

try Regina 3D launcher, its much smother and its also free
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soronk:
thanks for your answers and tips

I will delete rosie and eventually try regina 3d ;)

the fact is, i really love GO Launcher, because it has the option to swype or touch on the application at the dock :)

How can i force rotation on wp7?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Malherbe:
Hello

why and how to solve this problem ?

I have a stock rom, and when I install one of these script => Slaid480 script or V8.5 turboboost

The SGA reboot in wifi randomly ,and when I disable the script, the SGA does not reboot.

Thx
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adeklipse:
Stock ROMs don't support all of the features in SlaidMOD and nor V8.5 Turboboost because it hasn't got a supported kernel.

Try using a custom stock ROM or a Cyanogen build.

Or maybe flash the CF-Root kernel (I'm not sure that'll work, but you can always try).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Malherbe:
in my signature I indicate that my kernel is modified.

I also tried with TheMyth ICS lite and I have the same problem.

thx
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] xdaboy122:
Ok using root explorer go to system /etc/init.d tell me name of all the files in your init.d folder.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Kresshy:
I have almost the same stuffs and it's working for me.

I've installed these things in this order:

- 2.3.5 WKS9 rom via Odin

- CWM 4 from stock recovery

- CF-Root b82 from CWM 4

- Ext4 converter apk istalled in CWM Manager then converted to ext4

- SlaidFastMod V2 from CWM 4

It's working fine i reached 1455 quadrant score with this stock rom and mods

it's pretty good.

So the differences are the rom and the cwm maybe your rom will be the problem ?

or there are different scipts in your initd folder and that causes the problem

I would like to invite u to read my posts regarding the sony bravia engine if u didn't read them before. I proved why it didn't work before, and I showed it is working on my version. Its not a clone of the previous but with new modifications and code change, and the swiqi is running properly

Hope u will spend sometime in reading them if u have time. It will chg your mind. Thx

Can i just say a couple of things here. The bravia engine works on my xperia play no doubt. The screenshot of the 2 dogs or arctic foxes for before and after barely show any difference on my sgs2.

Btw, I think you need two devices side by side for comparison.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] PFittech:
yes BE will work and is working on SG2. I get it to work (created from SEMC) 1 moth ago with help MIKE(dev with 10000+thx) and devs from X10. Standard libs not sufficient. & people who saying it will not work are ignorant.

also xloud works with customized kernel but this future I dont get to work fully. I have only cleared sound but not increased. Secondary Xloud cant demage GS2 speaker because Samsung is default using Boots and our speaker is better as have x10 SP.

but I am very disgusted with how quickly some people they can copy and steal other ideas.

If I will have enough time i will bring xloud and BE in my rom wih ICS and my Eleanor kernel with audio/video futures.

I have read a lot, this is only my opinion.

I am very angry at some people from XDA and i never forget it

Thank you PFittech for all your work here.

hello guys, anybody can give me link for this bravia engine.. and is it will work on miui rom?

thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ykkfive:
i'm appreciated, blazk. and, no disrepect for NZed. take a look at my screenshots, and the evidence for a working swiqi tells

i admitted it was NOT my idea to put bravia in sgs2 at the very beginning, and not until i studied the previous unworkable version released here. i do respect PFittech's works and ideas and i contacted him about this issue already. my understanding was, he wont mind if i really continue to work on this project my way.

besides, about using/copying others' ideas, i do understand and respect ppls new ideas and inputs, but on the other hand, i think it is not a bad thing to use others' idea actually provided that with credits to the original author.

may be u will have doubts in what i said, but i can tell u that, i am the first one to publised loop devices for I9000, the first one to mod the sms sent time, and the first one to publish and tweak available memory in the kernel sources. i believe that almost all users had used at least one of them before, either modded by me or enhanced by others. and to be frank, i think there r hardly to find ppl who realized or remembered my name or my works, may be less than 0.01%. so? therefore, i can understand PFittech's frustrations.

but pls don get me wrong siberian tiger, i am not pointing my finger at you and i have no negative meaning nor dispects at all. all i wanted to say is my feeling only. so pls forgive me for my poor english if it hurts

i wish i could have 2 sgs2 and show the effects side by side for comparison also, but i have one sgs2 only. i know it's hard to desmonstrate the differences without showing both of them at the same time. although i tried very hard to prove it, they can be viewed as fake results and i understand that. but i can tell you guys that, the screenshots taken from the stock gallery with bravia engine and se's gallery were identical. i compared the checksums of the files obtained and they were the same. anyway, let's see if i can prove it further without videos clips

sorry, it's not yet released at the moment

lastly, thank you for showing me your supports guys!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ykkfive:
hi all,

first of all i would like to say thank you for your supports, either for the finally output or for me.

after careful consideration, i tend to release a demo so that ppl can see the real effects when the braiva engine is turned on in the samsung gallery.

for the development, i think it will be better to let interested developers to join and enhance it in their own way with their own expertise individually or as a group. i believe this will benefit the whole community. i will publish a simple guide for the developers instead of working on it alone. however, it requires more time and efforts to deal with the smali files, plus dependencies, permissions, libraries and so forth in this case.

in fact, this is what i planned to. so probably in the coming few days, there will be some more info added.

thank you for your patients, and thank you for my fans and supporters

and as usual, i do enjoy sharing new or dirty tweaks and mods to all of you :D

[Galaxy S II Android Development] PFittech:
I think it will not work- BE it not enabled - Gallery is only tool for loading not for enabling and second you dont have permission for BE & why you dont use libs for BE video .

but that's just my opinion good luck ykk_five
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ykkfive:
hi PFittech,

good to see ur comments. let me explain it further

- BE is not enabled in prop file because i removed this checking in the code

- yes, gallery is only a tool, but i modded it and made it call the tools and libs needed

- other similar settings are removed also, so it does not require any settings

- since i only want to prove bravia works in the gallery (for photos), i didnt have plan to modify the video part

lastly, give it a try :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] PFittech:
ou then OK its interesting. I get it to work without SE apks but I have modded xml files because I want BE enabled for all app which are working with colors... you have own way.)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ykkfive:
i see. i did it this way coz it requires less time, and all i wanted to know was if it works or not

i wanted to test on other parts as well, but i have too many things wanna try out
[Galaxy S II Android Development] grottesgs2:
Thank you 100x for your great work. I found your ROM as the best ROM ever on Galaxy S2, tried a lot of other ROM and I agree with you when you say people steal a lot on XDA ...

That's why as my mail said I only encourage you to face those people and continue your great work because this will surely lead to success.

Thanks man.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] atl4ntys:
I 2nd that. PFittech Rarity rom is the best rom around and I recommended it to my friends with SGS2 as well. I'm still on Rarity 4.2 but with the latest Phenomenal kernel 2.1 black extreme. Ive got ALL applications working without a bug, min 48h battery life and excellent performance. He was also the 1st dev I saw on XDA to promote Bravia engine on SGS2 but got pissed off that other ppl stole his ideas and maybe work as well? I really hope he'll come back to the community, collaborate with ppl like the OP and ignore the leaches..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ykkfive:
thx, but atm i have no plan to make it a complete version yet. however, i think there will be some other ports if ppl really like this. but i found that ppl nowadays always prefer "all-or-nothing", which was quite different before where ppl were chasing new mods. now they want all mods to be bundled in one rom but not individual mods, and prefer instant solutions.

for example, ppl were going crazy for the previous bravia thing, and was included in every rom since it was a finished mod and can be used to attract more downloads, although it was proven as unworkable later. and now, the real thing is here in "incomplete" status but no one is interested to finish it, nor anyone willing to spend some time to enhance it as to put it in their rom coz it is not an "instant-food".

to be frank, i am a bit disappointed about this trend that ppls are not interested in developers' and modders' works anymore but only in what "rom-makers" produce. however, i have no disrepect to the rom-makers and i do appreciate their works.

anyway, thx for ur support and i hope u enjoy this demo

It was just unfortunate when the other guys claimed bravia and turn it into a joke.

Anyway, It's called n00bs feeding n00bs. They don't care about dev work and they don't understand how hard it is to do it.

Use some wonderful marketing term and proficient use of a zipping tool, and maybe add some themer apks and you have a wonderful system for making money here.
