Putting this rom on hold while I partner up with Revolution on the WP7 clone rom. And join ishred11's Team Revolution on their WP7 rom. I don't want bite of more than I can chew so I'm playing it safe while working on only a few things at a time and this rom is being put on hold even more so that I can work with those two separate parties on the wp7 roms because the MIUI rom I'm currently working on has 50+ things still to be done on my to-do list for it while Team Revolution is almost finished and Revolution and I will partner up on the other so 2 is faster than 1.

Don't worry though this rom won't be forgotten. I actually love the look of MIUI more than any other UI. So I'll try to be back to working on this ASAP ;)
[Atrix 4G General] Jack'O:
Thanks a lot man.

Is it the same for lxde? I would like to try both on webtop.
[Atrix 4G General] ripin150:
Yes, im theory it should work, just type startlxde instead of startxfce. Post results on performance and usability, id like to know if theres anything that works better than xfce for this. :D
[Atrix 4G General] teeth_03:
are your tzdata or samba-common packages broken by any chance?

I had both broken doing the standard wedtop2sd install method (stock ROM), was able to work around tzdata but not samba-common
[Atrix 4G General] ripin150:
Ahh I have no idea, it should've been fixed in the dependency fix script. When do you encounter this error?

[Atrix 4G General] teeth_03:
tzdata would give an error when trying to install most packages from synaptic (openoffice.org is one I'm pretty sure), and samba-common throws an error when trying to install it, if you are trying to install a package to access file shares for example. But you can just try to install samba-common itself and it still doesn't install correctly.

Gnome also works!

After many hours of trial and error while following many of the tutorials, I managed to make gnome work to my liking on my webtop. I can even change themes as you can see on the screen captures.

I followed this tutorial made by aaron.a

I renamed the default gtk-2.0 Webtop theme to gtk-2.0-bak which is located on /osh/usr/share/themes/webtop-theme

I then edited the start-oshwt-1.sh file as follows:

# start OSHWT 1 scripts

update-font.sh

sfalv -w "webdaemon -d -n"

gnome-settings-daemon

# sfalv -i "xscreensaver"

sfalv -i "aiw -d"

sfalv -i "docking_manager"

fcitx

I edited the start-oshwt-2.sh file as follows:

# start OSHWT 2 scripts

# sfalv -i "awn-autostart"

# sfalv -i "webtop-panel"

# sfalv -i "webtop-wallpaper"

sfalv -i "gnome-panel"

sfalv -i "evbridge"

sfalv -i "window_switcher"

[Atrix 4G General] cpuchip:
What's the difference between

sfalv -i "startxfce4"

and

sfalv -i "xfce4-session"

I've been using the latter, but the former makes more sense to me. Though I've not been into doing this for very long.
[Atrix 4G General] ripin150:
I have no idea, thats probably something with XFCE itself.
[Atrix 4G General] cpuchip:
You're right! wrong thread for this kind of question, I just noticed differences. I'll let you know if I discover the difference.
[Atrix 4G General] wingmanjd:
This step didn't work until I typed in "startx" vs your line of "Startx".
[Atrix 4G General] jamesc760:
Is it normal for webtop to be finicky? I experience sometimes that webtop loses the top panel or doesn't wake up properly or just become unstable. Does anyone else experience? I mean, it usually works but sometimes, like one in ten times, webtop is wonky and I have to restart my phone.
[Atrix 4G General] Rayan:
Yes, I it's normal.... Just like your desktop pc or laptop, sometimes we need to start fresh with a reboot.
[Atrix 4G General] ripin150:
Hey thanks for saying, I wasnt aware it was case sensitive. I guess thats why it was being finicky for me. Webtop as a whole is pretty awkward, Ive just been plugging jokersax's ICS into the lapdock and that works fine. But whatever works, you know?
[Atrix 4G General] wingmanjd:
How do you like jokersax's build with the lapdock? I've been holding out on it since I've bought the MM dock and the Lapdock.
[Atrix 4G General] fjhuerta:
Help.... I'm running DarkSide and the 2.3.6 Webtop. I can't run Webtop2sd 2.0.1 - thea pp throws a "process net.toreishi.webtop2sd has stopped unexpectedly" when I try to open it. Any ideas? I haven't been able to find anything!
[Atrix 4G General] ripin150:
Ive gotten that problem, but I dont remember how I fixed it...

I guess just try clearing your cache and dalvik, maybe fix permissions. I may have gone so far as to flash a fruitcake with webtop, but Im not certain. Id read all up on the webtop2sd thread.
[Atrix 4G General] princeandy63:
Install busybox by JRummy16 from 'Market' Google Play, install busybox, leave default settings and try again

[Atrix 4G General] fjhuerta:
Thanks, you rock. Problem solved!
[Atrix 4G General] fjhuerta:
FWIW - Webtop2sd didn't work the first time around. It did work, but webtop2sd configurator didn't. I had to reinstall it 3 times, and suddenly it worked. Weird!
[Atrix 4G General] Lyazow:
XFCE works great on my lapdock now. Thanks! Just one thing: If you installed webtop hack, that messes a few things up. Start over with a fresh webtop2sd partition and you'll be good to go.
[Atrix 4G General] o-marshmallow:
Hi !

Thanks you for this great tutorial. However, I have a problem. In fact, When I do STEP 3 (I follow the guide for fixing dependencies) everything is working but after installation, the webtop doesn't have Internet anymore BUT wifi still working on the phone.

I have to uninstall webtop from sdcard with webtop2sd to make internet working. (so LXTerminal doen't work anymore)

What is the problem ?

EDIT: Partially solved. I have installed lxde using the Debian image taken from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1093790 , So I didn't use webtop2sd and I used 1.6 scripts NOT 1.7 !
[Atrix 4G General] DooMaster:
This might be old, but it works pretty good, there is some missing packages but nothing impossible to search and install by command.

Thanks i love the XFCE4 enviroment.

sources would be nice so im not anxiously dissecting this mess all night only to find out that its a bunch of rubbish
[T-Mobile LG G2x] larryhi:
Nice, hopefully it's not a waste of your time and it's legit. And it is sketchy that it would be posted without a source.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
build.prop says its a dec7 build... **** it... flashing...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MasterGGM:
LOL. I literally googled "ICS G2X" and found a mediafire link.. don't flame me.. was just wondering if it was legit.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Most likely a broken AOSP or CM build being tossed between devs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Maybe the alpha that was posted here but later removed...

NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
we will know soon enough, holdon im booting it up... cross your fingers that my **** doesnt catch fire lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MasterGGM:
Sorry guys.. I googled the link itself..

It is the: Alpha Version 3 W/O On Screen
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
/facepalm

yerp thats what it is... but those who want to try it still it boots and you can play around with the new ics interface a bit if you want but dont expect a concrete stable build lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MasterGGM:
I really wish those idiots didn't flame the devs... we would have had a decent near perfect build right now.. stupid ignorant people just blaming everyone else and expecting great outcomes.. now that's /facepalm

btw.. can you post some screenshots?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
I already restored back to my bionix reloaded build sorry... just boot it up on your own, you cant do any harm by flashing it for a bit...

its literally an AOSP build... 4.0.1 (with a bunch of other digits after)... same old kernel... sound doesnt work so you can even make phone calls... its a mess to say the least...

and i doubt it would be fully working since we still dont have tegra2 drivers from nvidia... 2.2 to 2.3 is a doable fix, 2.3 to 4.0 is no beuno... nvidia or LG has to throw us a bone on this one...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gypsy214:
i wonder why they stopped and gave up on these when everything was going so great??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dmj2012:
As I understand it they didn't stop, they just stopped posting about it because of all the noise in the thread.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
No one ever said they gave up. They just closed the thread.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] MasterGGM:
I am pretty sure they are humble enough to continue working on it for the rest of us who are more appreciative and patient.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jetbruceli:
Well I tried it and it works just cant get a data connecting 2g 3g or wifi. it was cool though having ICS for a minute!

this one didnt have the onscreen buttons too!

Cant wait for this to be put on this device. Tried a Galaxy Nexus at the local store and was amazed at the software. I would get one of those but seriously Tegra 2 is better than sgrx 540, Trust me that GN can not do what this G2x can in terms of gaming!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linda poky:
I want to know but not sure how to proof it since the statistic in android market is not in real time. If I send my app to friends in apk file and they've installed, will android market count as net/device install? thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stkfigure:
They need to have a rooted phone. They can use Titanium Backup and force attach the apps to the market
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
It will not specify how you installed the app. The app will just be shown as installed if you search for it on the market (and if you use Titanium Backup's Market Doctor, then you can attach it for it to show up in the "My Apps" section - for some apps).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Felimenta97:
There isn't any other way to attach the market link to the app, not using Titanium Backup. Once, My Apps section of Market stoped working, and Titanium Backup caused that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
I didn't say there was.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linda poky:
what i curious is does android market know when a user installed the apk from an external source (same signature). if yes, can i say that the download number in market is the overall download numbers from all the sources of the app?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
No, it will not know. No, it would not add to the download number in the market.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstroud:
Speaking from first-hand experience, don't be so sure that either the Android Market or Amazon Appstore stop counting (or knowing) about apps just because they are side-loaded.

Our current app doesn't show an increase in downloaded users, but Google does report "active" users, and that number can differ from the download number. Moreover, Amazon Appstore currently "finds" apps installed on a device and matches them with apps in their list and they will try to update them.

One last note: app developers can and do put all kinds of code in their apps that touch live Google and Amazon APIs and components. This code will communicate with those services even if the app arrives on the device indirectly... so there are still many ways an app can be tracked besides just direct download numbers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragon_76:
I Sent my market purchased apps to my spouses new phone, without my account on it, and they updated through his account, but only free versions. To get the update on paid versions I had to install my account, so there is definitely something going on in the signature.

If the developer updates their apps with any regularity the download count will rectify itself during the update process. BTW, Amazon does this as well. I am always offered to update my Market apps through Amazon (if free on both) but typically Market has the update before Amazon.

Cheers!

[Motorola Photon 4G] hodiedodie:
I moved to Australia this week. I brought my MoPho with me. It was a hassle getting it to work but i figured it out and thought to tell you how it went. I put a Vodafone AU SIM card in my phone but 3G would not work. I knew for a fact i was in a coverage area for 850Mhz 3G so I was pretty annoyed it would not work. Turns out with the Photon you have to manually ass the APN for Vodafone and probably a few others. I was able to get all the settings I needed from here.

http://ausdroid.net/apns/

tl;dr Sometimes when abroad you need to manually add the APN for the carrier.
[Motorola Photon 4G] 0mfgroflmao:
I need to do that for my carrier too (Slingshot NZ, 850/2100Mhz) but after that it works fine, 3G GSM data is borked on the current ICS build though.
[Motorola Photon 4G] hodiedodie:
Ya. Im going to wait awhile before i put on another custom ROM. Still trying to get used to everything in Australia. Cant risk being without a phone. Im going to keep an eye on cm9. Until then i only have the precious data connection on my phone which is caped at 4GBs :'(. I miss unlimited.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
Yea ill be down under in January

The telstra pre pay sim works better than vodafone .
[Motorola Photon 4G] hodiedodie:
Well. Thats a tricky question. Bellow i will list the different networks and what they support compared to the photon. Currently all three major carriers can provide 3G to the Photon. Telstra simply has a better network but it has nothing to do with how it interacts with the phone. For both Optus and Vodafone so far i have had to manually set the APNs. It was a ***** with the Optus one because of the separate APNs for internet and mms. Even though optus doesnt have umts850 and the photon doesnt have umts900 i am downloading about 4Mbs in East Killara (Suburb by Sydney) throught Optus' 2100 single band HSDPA+. I have not tested Telstra because they are so freaking expensive.

Photon supports:

800/1900 MHz (EV-DO Rev. A),

GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz,

UMTS/WCDMA 850/1900/2100 MHz (HSPA+ at 14.4 Mbit/s)

OPTUS/Amaysim: (I only recommend for when time is being spent in Capital Cities that support 2100 single band)

GSM - 900/1800

UMTS - 900/2100 (2100 single band)

TELSTRA:

2G - 900/1800

3G - 850/2100 (850 is NextG)

LTE - 1800

Vodafone:

2G - 900/1800

3G - 850/900/2100
[Motorola Photon 4G] blaze3927:
vodafone's 3g did not work for me at all, apns could not be set,

after a bit of hassle i got optus working and am happy so far, vodafone is sooo bad in aus anyway.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
Yea i used my sprint touch pro 2 all last year down under.

Hoping the photon puts my tp2 on the shelf.

I agree with hodie though

Optus is good when your in Melbourne, sydney, perth,etc.but i thought telstra had the better overall service.

I recently figured out that by lowering the process priority of Opera from 251 to 252 the application runs much more smoothly on my device. Currently I must go through SKtools to manually lower the process priority, is there any way I can have this done automatically?

Ideally I'd like an application launcher that would allow the user to create a shortcut that would start an application with lowered priority.

Does anyone know of an application like this?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] monk3yguy:
So I have been a long time follower of XDA, did all sorts of things with my Vibrant and just recently got the SGS2 from Sprint. A few days ago I flashed Calkulin's E4GT v2.6 and since then everything has gone down hill:

> The phone started acting like it was "charging" with nothing plugged in, red LED light stayed on and the battery had the charge symbol.

> Car mode began coming on over and over again.

> The phone would freeze and after I took out the battery it would automatically restart with me pushing the power button once the battery was re-inserted.

In hopes to just be down with it I flashed it back to stock with ODIN and everything seemed fine...

Now the phone is constantly freezing, Displaying that I have no service, The touch screen becomes unresponsive while charging, Car mode is still trying to launch.. not as frequently but it has happened. Other minor issues was the pattern lock would display when I woke up the phone even though I never set one...but I could do anything with the pattern to unlock it, even just touching a circle. Worse part in my opinion is either the phone will not recognize the PC or the PC will no longer recognize the phone so I can try ODIN again, same PC, drivers and USB cord being is.

Any suggestions on how I can remedy the situation?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xjreyes:
Same thing happened to me, when I tried flashing an AIO over Calkulins you're pretty much done. You'll have to unroot and go to sprint. I ended up getting a new one since I was within the 2 week exchange.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
What exactly did you use when you did this? I flashed it back to stock with ODIN

Maybe link to the file(s) you used?

Also maybe the exact steps you took. None of this sounds right. And if you flashed the complete EG30 tar you would be back exactly to when you purchased the phone. Everything would be overwritten so there really wouldn't be anything left to linger and cause issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Try a ##786# reset

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Try a ##786# reset from dialer.

To get your MSL, in adb shell, type "getprop ril.MSL" without the quotes. If you use Android Terminal make sure you aren't using the Swype keyboard or it'll auto capitalize the "I" despite being told not to.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] monk3yguy:
First off thank you everyone who has replied, I have definitely looked into all of your suggestions throughout the day. Here is what I have come up with.

I tried the ##786# for a clear reboot, all the symptoms still continued =(

I started figiding with the micro USB port and finally was able to get my computer and phone to connect to each other, I have also been reading that the port also causes the phone to spontaneous "ghost" charge and activate car mode.

So I am pretty sure it is a hardware issue, in particular the usb port. Tomorrow I am going to get the parts and make a jig to reset the binary counter and just take it in to Sprint and get an exchange.

Wilson and Citylink specialize in mobile devices.

Fortress, Broadway and Suning sell all sorts of electronics

All phones in Hong Kong are required by law to be unlocked unless you are on contract. Of course, The GN is factory unlocked...

All that i named are chain stores - so you can feel safe buying from them. Price will vary though due to the nature of buying things in HK
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] momomok:
It has been available since 15 Dec

Go to get it from some chain store would be better than those small shops, especially tourist area. They usually charge way higher than the suggested price.

The chain store would be selling at suggested price - hkd 5398 if my memory is good.

Screen protector is usually given as a free gift, and the staffs should help you applying it.

All GN selling in HK should yakjuzs-build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skeve:
I bought my Galaxy Nexus in HK a week ago

The price is 5398 HKD in Broadway and Fortress

But you can find it cheaper in Mongkok Computer center or Golden Arcade (around 4800-4900 HKD); just keep in mind that they prefer cash there; credit card transactions are usually 3%+ to the price

btw, buying in Broadway gets you some freebies - I got screen protector and extra battery with a charger
