[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
If you load a complete stock rom .. and remove anything that acer put on it you will Likely be able to accept the OTA S BUT will not be able to install them.. They check against every app that was pushed by them one missing or frozen . NO GO..

This has been how past updates have worked.. You can freeze apps . ROOT REQUIRED.. then undo your changes to get the ota ..
[Acer Iconia A500] timmyDean:
Actually, they check the checksums if I'm not mistaken. But erica_renee is correct, if you mess with the stock it will not install the OTA. It might see the OTA and download it, but won't install or it might not even see it.
[Acer Iconia A500] nifterific:
I rooted on 3.1 to remove bloat before accepting the 3.2 update and the update worked as advertised. It was a waste of time though, the OTA reinstalled the bloat, so you're probably better off with a rooted stock rom if you want the most current version without bloat. I wish I had stayed rooted on 3.1 and flashed a rooted stock 3.2 instead of unrooting for the OTA.

I know this is my first post but please take my word on this, you'll be stuck withthebloat after an OTA.
[Acer Iconia A500] alexrb:
Thanks, guy!

Nice to know, it's really new to me! Thanks! :)

I know you're right. It's always good be advised, by whoever may be!

Using the root method in this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1354487

The Gallery App that is loaded using that method seems to show Picasa albums by default. I know normally that you can go into your Account and Sync settings to turn that off, but I cant seem to find those options on the Nook Tablet. Any ideas on how to disable the online Picasa Albums? Could I just, somehow, remove Picasa all together? In the meantime I have been using QuickPic, but was just curious about the default Gallery App.
[HTC Incredible S] bob8x:
Hello everyone, after temp fixing my laptop with ubuntu I mounted my stock SD and I figured out that it didn't have any ext3 partition only a fat32 partition...

Now I'm wondering what isthe best use of partitions on the sd...

From what I've learnt in various 3D ( unluckily outdated):

ext2: seems to be good, fast, linux native, no journal ( no useless data written on sd)

ext3: like ext2 but with journal ( dunno if on latest stock rom is optimized)

ext4: not supported by stock rom

swap: it might shorten sd life, but I didn't understand if it's really useful nor if is supported

fat32: useful for photos, videos, write data easily with windows...

Concluding and considering that I'm using latest stock rom(for the moment): ext partitions runs app really faster than fat32 and allows all app's cache to be written on ext partitions rather than internal memory?

Swap partition is worth of it(in which size?)?

[OT]Aside from benchmark in daily use there is difference between class 4 and 10 cards???

Thank you, and forgive me for any grammatical error ^^
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
What's the reasoning behind wanting ext partition on your sdcard? Do you really need that much room for apps and cache?

I think internal storage is much more efficient (faster) for loading apps.

As for swap, really unnecessary on this phone, performance will decrease hard,ram is much faster than flashmem and android's native task killing does an adequate job of freeing ram for active apps to run.

Also benchmark on the sdcard measures 2 things, read speed and write speed so faster usually equals faster. That said, you're probably not going to notice a huge difference on stock rom unless you transfer a lot of files to your PC.
[HTC Incredible S] bob8x:
Oh well, I've still a lot of free space, it was asking for the future ^^

BTW thank you, I've cleared all my doubts!

I use Screeble all the time. And every once and a while i notice that it stops working. Reinstalled it... no help. Then i installed an app that shows the readings of the sensors.

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] akshay2000:
Hello, friends!

I have a nearly useless :rolleyes: app here. I'm trying to submit it to the marketplace and those Microsoft people don't seem to have nay problem with the uselessness! However, I had accidentally used a Windows logo in the splashscreen art of the app. Obviously, they were not comfortable with it and asked me to remove it. So, without bothering to go to source again, I simply replaced the jpeg file inside XAP keeping the name of the XAP same. But even after correcting the file, they tell me that there's still Windows logo and the application is rejected.

The XAP is here: Link has been removed

Finally, the app is here:

Is there any chance that I might have left some traces of the logo somewhere? Or is it possible that the same old XAP file was tested again due to names of the new and the old being same? Thanks to community for the support! Feel free to comment on the app and the logo thing. Suggestions are always welcome.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] chaitanya91845:
Nice start. I think there is a problem though. Once you click "More" to read the entire article, is there no way to go back? Maybe I am missing something.

A couple of suggestions too.

1) Dark theme for AMOLED users.

2) Options to add sites for feeds.

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] akshay2000:
Thanks!

Thanks a lot for your suggestions. They're around on my to-do list, especially the theme one.

About navigation: I guess, the operating system makes use of the IE itself (of the engine behind IE, to be precise) to show pages even inside app. So, back button works the same way it does with IE - taking you one page back. So, the button's action depends upon the page being loaded. Simple solution to the problem you mentioned is to double press the back button - it works, I've checked. It takes back you to the list of news items. (It doesn't take you to the page where you clicked 'more', because I think its pointless to go to the short form of the article again after reading the whole article. Let me know if you think otherwise.)

Now, to address my issue, did you find any objectionable content (Windows logo or something copyrighted) which those people are complaining about?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] chaitanya91845:
Couldn't find anything except for the pocketnow logo on the splash screen that could have been mistaken as the Windows logo. I know it sounds silly, but who knows.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] akshay2000:
That's what I thought at first - the pocketnow logo. First thing, if pocketnow are using it, then should I. Secondly, it differs from the Windows logo significantly. Thirdly, they mentioned that the logo appears on the left cornet of the screen. And lastly, as you mentioned, pocketnow thing is stupid! :p

There was red Windows Mango logo used in the splash, which is now replaced with a red tile with the words 'blog windows phone'. I think that the confusion arose because I didn't change the name of XAP and the old one was tested again! Hope to get that approved. Wish me luck. I'll report the deep link here once its done.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] chaitanya91845:
That could be the reason. I hope it gets approved this time around. Please include the feature to add more sites, if possible.

All the best :)

I'm sorry but I'm not able to troubleshoot this with you with the info you provided.

Which phone do you have? What ROM? Which recovery version? Do you have proper drivers installed? Windows/Mac/Linux?

And what does your friend's app has to do with any of that and which app are you talking about?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
First off, I love the idea of a data used display. However, as implemented the Setting->Data usage display can be alarming. For my first month I've used very little wireless data as I'm mostly connected to wifi. Yet it appears I've consumed a large amount my month's data allotment. Verizon's website shows the scale in correct proportion.

The phone seems to be using a logarithmic vertical scale. Maybe the algorithm was available and easy to implement but it's not appropriate for gauging a month's data use. There should at least be a user display choice for a linear scale.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
I don't get what your trying to say. It sounds like you are saying that data usage includes wifi usage, which it doesn't. You can enable it to track wifi data but it shows that on a different page. I have never had a problem with data usage and it lines up with my bill.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ratchetnclank:
No what he is saying is the scale makes it look like more it used than there is since it doesn't use linear scaling on the y axis.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MartijnVdS:
So what he's saying is he doesn't understand a logarithmic scale?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MoosDiagramm:
Funny, but not helpful.

Logarithmic would mean that the displayed graph indicates a lower usage than the actual data consumption.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] andrawer:

I am thinking of getting an MHL cable and Bluetooth keyboard/mouse sets.... but the 800X480 is a bit low for a casual PC.

On the other hand anyone tried LCD resolution to increase the resolution of SII and then MHL?

Not sure how useful it would be.... but definitely good fun :D :p
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
You can change the lcd density(not the resolution) from the default value of 240 to some lower value to get higher resolution like screen. Not sure about how the display will be when using mhl cable + this tweak.

Yeah... I imagine that MHL would just mirror the LCD screen unless it's playing a video... So......:confused:

hi,

i recently got the xperia play for christmas and i want to play my psone games on it. so i got the PSXperia tool but requires to get a .apk and .zpak files, which are in the internal memory, which i cannot access through windows explorer. is there a tool that allows me to access this? its an unrooted phone, on 2.3.4

thank you

"You need to extract some files from the Crash bandicoot apk that came with your Xperia Play

The APK is either com.sony.playstationblahblahblah.apk or com.sony.playstation.blahblahblah.apk in the system/app folder of your android phone's INTERNAL MEMORY"

So I can get the ZPAK from the SD card, however I cannot get the APK. Help?

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raysie:
Download Astro File Manager from the Android Market. Launch the app and find the directory where the APK file is located, which is in "/system/app".

Press down on the APK file and tap on "copy". Then go back to your SD card and paste it there.

^^ This was the fastest way I was able to get that APK file.

Well I started with superoneclick, it told me I didn't have any drivers and I chose the "force driver's option" before this the phone wasn't popping up when I hooked up the USB. It just show's on the phone "USB debugging connected". After that I tried running superoneclick and after starting the adb server it hangs up and dies. This is on win7 64bit with admin rights. I then downloaded the apk for gingerbreak and that just hung there for about 20+ minutes saying it would reboot if successful. After that I found a guide on how to install adb drivers, but after I run the "adb shell" command it tells me my device is not found. I uninstalled the drivers from my PC and i'm getting the same "device not found while trying to install adb drivers". Oh before uninstalling my forced drivers from superoneclick I tried unlockroot from unlockroot.com. It also said my device was not found. Not sure what the hell to do next! hope all this info helps you help me!
