[Miscellaneous Android Development] francabernal:
Hi, thanks for helping me to root my Exhibit II. I watched it happen with fear as I didn't know what to expect, but it happened flawlessly; really, really THANK YOU for taking the time to put this info on the web. Now that my phone is rooted I want to remove the unnecessary apps you have listed above to speed up my phone. I also want to install a tethering/wifi hotspot app to use with my $30 5G Tmobile plan.

My questions:

Am I still going to Settings / Applications / Manage Applications in order to uninstall? I don't see any of the unwanted ones there yet, only the ones I've installed myself. If not in settings, where do I go to uninstall?

Can you recommend an app I can use to use WIFI hotspot or tethering with my exhibit II with the $30 TMo plan

Thanks for any help you can give me.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samusishere:
You have have to download a seperate root uninstaller from market.

I use titanium back up free

but make sure you back up all your apps first.

And make sure you dont uninstall any apps that arnt listed on the first paige of the thread

Is it me or is it that all ICS roms where black is supposed to be I see greyish blue??? Not black
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
That's the theme of ICS yes.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donsh00tmesanta:
Am I seeing it wrong? The gn seems black
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
Blacks are blacks.

Apps however do loose their blacks when hw acceleration is used.

Oooo that makes sense

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shark_On_Land:
What? How does that make sense? He gave no explanation.

I could tell you. Its the new pics kernal, its packing color drivers that save the most battery for the galaxy nexus's screen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
Now that doesn't make any sense.

The other one did. When you force enable GPU acceleration all black screens become gray such as the native menus in ics. But if you have it off (app controls when GPU is on) older aps will still have the deep black menu/look of GB.

Why gray when deep black saves more on screen battery? I don't know, perhaps we should ask Google.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
I don't need to give a explanation.

4 in 1 Reboot Menu with Extended Power Menu Options​

First off, a HUGE thanks goes out to chingy51o for always being a help on whatever it is I may need.​

Also, thanks to -sqn and chingy51o for the source in which I ported this from. As well as Nilsp, for taking the time to test with me.​

Instructions:

1. This file can either be installed via adb or compiled with your ROM.​

2. If you are a developer, I REQUIRE that thanks be given where its due. ​

3. You are using this file at your own risk. No-one else can be held responsible other than yourself.​

This mod is for 1.02.605.6 deodexed and rooted ROM's only​

​

DOWNLOAD HERE​

FLASHABLE ZIP HERE​
[HTC Rezound] Sleek69:
Great mod, makes it even easier to flash all these fantastic roms coming our way!
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
So is this something anyone can apply to any ROM they're currently running just by pushing it via adb ? If so, where do we push it to?
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
will work on any 1.02.605.6 rom that is deodexed and rooted
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
So I dig through Root Explorer a bit and found android.policy.jar in /system/framework, I assume we just push it to there then do a reboot and we should be good to go?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yes, push it to /system/framework/
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
The question of how to adb push files comes up alot.

A long time ago I made it easy for myself since I do it often by creating the 2 scripts in the attached. Extract them to a folder and all you have to do is drag and drop the files over the appropriate batch file.

Just boot into recovery, mount system, and do this.

For example this jar file would be dragged and dropped on the

2_FRAMEWORK-Push_(Drop Here).cmd

This assume adb is in your system path. If it is not you will find out quick.
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
Do we need to be in recovery to push via adb on the Rezound? I tried doing it and kept getting this:

c:\sdk\platform-tools>adb push c:/sdk/platform-tools/android.policy.jar /system/framework

failed to copy 'c:/sdk/platform-tools/android.policy.jar' to '/system/framework/android.policy.jar': Permission denied

Am I doing something wrong or is the Rezound just a bit funky? I made sure to set everything to R/W in Root Explorer, since I was originally getting a "Read-only file system" error.
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
you must be rooted... make sure the jar is either in your adb folder or you have adb in your path

adb remount

adb push android.policy.jar system/framework

adb reboot
[HTC Rezound] rboddy:
I am rooted, and was trying to do this via adbWireless, so maybe the connection was wonky even though adb said my phone was connected. So I dunno what's happening, so instead I just Dropbox'd it over and moved it via Root Explorer, phone is rebooting now so we'll see if that worked, I'm assuming it should. Maybe the adb remount command would have helped. I'll give it a whirl with that for ****s and grins.

EDIT: Moving inside Root Explorer worked, thanks for supplying this file man! :D Sooo much better than the damn battery pull lol ;)
[HTC Rezound] Izeltokatl:
How does one make this flashable? I did move it via rootexplorer but it's not showing the extra settings after boot.
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
make sure adb is in your enviromental path....

then open cmd

type

adb remount

adb push android.policy.jar system/framework

adb reboot
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Thanks bored! Great work! The entire community appreciates you sharing this! Its just in time for another build of CleanROM! Timing could not have been better.

Here is a flash-able zip version of the file. You can add it to OP if you want and can pull it from this post. Eitherway...

Thanks again for this!

-Scott
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
thanks.... added to op.... i was gonna make one but trying to focus on my rom instead... the 4 in 1 was a must though
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
That looks great! I always thought the quick settings menu had weird choices on stock.

Wondering if there's any reason you took out bluetooth though? I guess I don't use it that much but I turn it off whenever I leave my car at the shop cuz otherwise my phone calls/music go to the car if I'm hanging out and they have it turned on. lol.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
I totally understand how that goes. Thats also a generic flashable that I use. You can add /app/ to it. I use it for testing changes....
[HTC Rezound] Evo4gLI:
So now we can just flash this through recovery?
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
the one scott attached yes
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
it wasnt working properly... once i get my rom done i'll back up and try to lay it to rest
[HTC Rezound] reggie cheeks:
Thanks for the flashable zip!!! Worked nice & easy with CWM.
[HTC Rezound] Tikerz:
I tried manually moving the file with root explorer and that didn't work. Then I tried the flashable zip file and still have the stock menu after reboot. Am I missing something?

Edit: Nevermind, I'm not running a deodexed ROM.

Did you make sure the Rom you flashed is 4G capable and enabled?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watt9493:
Its the 7.1 stable.

-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
If your on CM7.1 Stable, I believe it's supposed to be 4G capable. I would redownload the Rom and Reflash. Just make sure you properly clear your device before flashing. You should read THIS guide before flashing.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watt9493:
Hmm. I wiped all of it and flashed it all in one shot. Would that cause a problem? I also used an a2sd script in the dev section. :/ my girl isn't gonna let me wipe and flash again.

-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Your supposed to Wipe and Flash all in one shot. So that's all good. Not sure about the A2SD Dev Script, but it should not affect the WiMax. I would still suggest redownloading and reflashing. Although there might be another work around, did you check the CM Forum to see if anyone else has had the issue?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Puhn:
I had purchased Asphalt 5 from Amazon for my g tablet when I was running Tnt 4.40 and it worked fine. I just installed gtabcombover 3.4.1 and now all I get is a box that briefly displays "Sorry, cannot play video." Does anyone have any ideas on getting it to work? Their support is useless; they just say that the g tablet isn't a supported device and to talk to Amazon because they shouldn't have sold it.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtabcombover:
There is a decent chance that you won't be able to get it to work on GTabCombOver because, like all the other current honeycomb roms, it doesn't support hardware accellerated video. But run GetLogs right after running Asphalt and get me the result. I'll look at it and see if there is a possible fix.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Puhn:
Thanks for the reply...I kind of wondered if it wasn't hardware accelleration related.

Anyway, I've got GetLogs installed but can't find any information on what to do with it. I've got all three check boxes checked. There are 3 buttons: Add (for a mask string), PasteBin!, and Just a File. I've clicked on all of them but don't know what it is doing. I assume it is creating a file somewhere but what is the file called and where is it?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtabcombover:
The file should be in /sdcard/Android/apps/com.GetLogs/data/. You can see the GetLogs thread for more information on GetLogs.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Puhn:
Weird. GetLogs wouldn't work so I downloaded the source and stepped through it. Then it worked. Anyway, I've PM'd the log to you.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
First of all this is for the noobs, like me, Devs or smart users stay outta this :cool:

Below are/were my impressions after playing with KP8 for 45+ minutes,

• Hell of a lot better than previous build, KP1. Yes, I will call it a Beta, finally ;)

• Phone calls were good, in ear volume was good and loud enough for me.

• Vibration intensity is FINALLY back to normal, unlike KP1 where it was so faint that you could barely feel it.

• Ringtone volume is normal.

• Incoming call UI is same as before and the Reject and Answer button doesn't animate while sliding. (Beta)

• Phone signal is rock solid and stable.

• 3G does work, Wi-Fi too.

• Noise Cancellation feature is FINALLY here, you can turn it off/on manually. It was presented in the previous build too.

• Stock broswer is brilliant, smooth as hell, no lag of whatsoever while Auto fit enabled. Lot of customisation options are there too, like font size, invert colors, Desktop view, Bandwith management, Offline reading etc... Flash plugins worked well too, make sure you download the latest Flash Player.

Sad part keeps remaining, no EXIT option

• Contacts have more options to display, attached screenshot.

• Stock GMail app is upgraded, same like KP1, no multi touch/pinch to zoom.

• Stock Email app is kinda weird, all black background, maybe there is a way to change it, didn't have time.

• Clock, Calender, Gallery, Maps, Calculator, Task, Memo (new icon), Mini diary, Voice Recorder, FM Radio, My Files, Voice recorder everything are same as in GB, so no, Sammy won't update those thing in TW for ICS, maybe.

• ICS Lockscreen is weird, doesn't work well.

• Camera works completely well, every settings work, same goes for 1080P Video recording.

• Task Manager is ICS style, slide left to close an app, cool.

• LWP does work, however there are some lags.

• 480X800 Wallpapers DOESN'T fit in desktop! Same like KP1. Should and will be fixed.

• Market works perfectly fine, downloading app works good too.

• No Swype, not that I expected.

• All the network based options were there, including APN's.

• GPS is fine, got lock in indoors!

• YouTube app works perfectly fine, some new options were added.

• Stock video player somehow played 1080P file, it was not watchable for me. Audio was intact on the other hand.

• Music player is SAME.

• Had 3 FC's so far, once system also froze.

• The smoothness allover UI is pretty fine, HW acceleration is definitely there, I like the elastic type scrolling, however it need more polishing, undoubtedly.

• Overscroll glow is reduced somewhat, with ICS color instead of blue. I still hate it anyway.

• Stock fonts worked. Not in Browser and other places though.

• Connection with PC worked.

• Unread SMS icon changed in LS, (I don't like it) and there is NO missed call notification icon in LS!

••• What am I doing? Of course I am going back to my Nandroid backup :D, no way this was a daily ROM for me.

If I remember anymore I'll update, feeling sleepy.

Attaching some screenshots.

Regards.

I found the whole thing to be somewhat unresponsive and the lack of proper SD card support was killer for me.

- Certain apps like gmail would crash and the hole phone would become unstable.

- Overheating problems

- Lockscreen is buggy

No and it won't because for the Galaxy Nexus the zero shutter lag is due from the hardware and not the software. So the camera might be a little faster with ICS it won't be the zero shutter lag from the Galaxy Nexus.

Much smoother? No. Just a little bit over GB.

GPU acceleration was there under Developer tools, but it needed to be checked though I guess, which I didn't do.

Yes, they indeed are fast.

I'd say 70% job is done, just some fine tuning and polishing needs to be done. We and Samsung have full three months to meet their commitment of providing ICS within Q1,.with the speed they are going, I guess they will have spare time at the end ;)

This is the very first time I can state some positive of Samsung!
