[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
The only thing that should disable your Google Video is unlocking your bootloader (impossible at the moment).

This has been explained by ASUS, talking of the Transformer Prime, that comes with a locked bootloader and a tool for unlocking it.

In less words, they're saying that the Transformer Prime comes locked because of DRM content protection and when you unlock it, they're disabling the DRM keys management because they can be easily hacked with something like a custom kernel.

They're absolutely right.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jiwengang:
Thanks and just for the record. Google video is not working after rooting (and I am fine with that )

2 Questions as I am going to start flashing some different ROM's.

1) Which should I use if I have a setup I like and may want to revert back to:

Nandroid backup or Titanium backup? Or do they do different things?

2) Once I flash the ROM and need to put it back to a condition with all the apps and settings as I would like, is there any easier process than using Appbrain to restore previously installed apps? But what about settings within various apps? Do people just go through and manually change everything each time?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
use a recovery like cwm. a nandroid backup is done by clockwork mod. it basically takes a picture of all files just as they are on your phone. minus your sd card. it is used as a restore if you run into problems with new stuff. titanium backup is used to save apps and data and settings. I would highly suggest you don't restore system data. also slot of people end up running into problems restoring app data using titanium backup. so I only restore apps by themselves. any more questions just ask. also if any info I give is wrong let me know. and as always if I have helped you give a thanks

---------- Post added at 02:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 AM ----------

forgot some things. whenever you try out a new rom always do a cwm backup. before flashing a rom make sure to wipe everything like dalvik cache. cache. and also do the factory data wipe. calkulin has a. zip to do all this for you as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noahas:
Thanks for responding. So Titanium does everything a nandroid backup does plus the data and settings?

When people flash new ROM's (after wiping cache, etc.)do they use appbrain to restore all apps? or do people use Titanium to restore apps? I assume not a Nandroid backup as that will revert them back to the previous ROM. I assume they then still have to go through and adjust all the settings to their liking (browser default, lockscreen, background, etc.) seems like it would take about an hour just to get all settings back as you like it after each ROM flash. Is this what most people do or is there an easier way.

Thanks again.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xaitox:
Hello you Masters!

First of all, HI! My name is Luis, im from Vzla (South America for those that have never look at a map), this is my hmm... third day with a Sony Ericsson Xperia X8, first time using Android (had a BB but well lets say I dropped it and got tired of BB platform so WELCOME ANDROID!) I will be checking and using this forum from now on since is the best site to check for any information regarding my X8 and i will be glad to be an active member of this community so pleeease excuse me for being a noob and for my very very bad english.

Now, Thx to this site I managed to root my phone and install a new launcher (yaay im a pro xD) BUT there are a lot of things i dont know how to do and theres particulary one that makes me go mad, my music library contains not only the music I download but also EVERY SINGLE voice note y send/receive using WhatsApp and I dont like this, so is there any way to change the folder where those voicenotes will be saved so they dont merger with my music? It´s very annoying to be listening to music and suddenly a wild sexy voicenote from my girlfriend appears while my phone is plugged to an Stereo and all my family is listening... Yes, it happened...

OH! and the other thing is "can I make my phone to turn off the screen after 1 minute BUT without it being blocked? so i can just press a butttom to make it come to life again without needing to unlock it again? something like i just want it to lock ONLY if i press the top buttom"

Thx in advance for any help you could give me. :D
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagleeyetom:
Hello. Welcome to xda :)

Stock player don't have option to set a library folders. I love PowerAmp, which is the best player in my opinion (it's free for 14 days). It has such option, so it's quite handy.

And few words about lockscreen. In custom ROMs such as GingerDX or MiniCM you'll find CyanogenMod Settings with many cool tweaks. You should try it, your phone will be fast as hell :D

For me it's impossible to work without these apps:

Advanced Task Killer - kills apps after periods of time, keeps your RAM clean

3G Watchdog - counts data when you are on the E/3G/HSDPA

AdFree - wipes commmercials on Android

Chainfire3D - gives additional boost of graphical performance (i prefer to use QUALCOMM plugin)

Dual Mount SD - small one, but really usefull; automatically turns on your data interchange when plugged to PC

Screen Filter - darkens your screen better than stock

Titanium Backup - gives busybox and backup for every app

There's more of them, but these are must have.

Tweaks:

SlaidFastMOD - in my opinion one of the best tweaks available on XDA for Ace

Themes:

Honeycomb theme - it's look great with launcherpro honeycomb theme.

ROMs:

CyanogenMod 7.1-cooper-KANG-RC1 Android 2.3.7 (upd: 12.10.2011) - I'm using this one. Why? It's really stable, no FCes, no lags. 1900 quadrant score at smartass governor.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
There was a fix found for the captivate but not a of yet fit the glide. I attempted to use the GPS for the first time and realized that Samsung has not fixed this issue yet.

I tried using the app lbs test mode launch but the app quickly told me that lbstestmode.apk was not present in the system.

Any ideas a to how to fix this?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] switchfruit:
There are a few days where I don't receive gps signal at all and some days where the gps is fine. Don't quite know where the problem stems from, but from what I heard it seems different than from the original captivate issue. Any one else care to weigh in?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] TRusselo:
all lbstestmode settings can be manually edited in the file /system/etc/gps.conf

or there could be a sencond copy in /system/vendor/etc/gps.conf

vendor folder is full of carrier tweaked files that supersede the original files not in vendor/
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
Thanks, I'll have to check into that and see if the GPS fix fit the regular captivate will work
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
I have found an official fix for the GPS on the capitate glide. Here is the site that has the fix.

http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/guide-gps-quickest-fix-solution.2022/

I used root explorer to insert the file. Just a note, be sure to make a backup copy of the original before hand, just in case! But I can confirm that it worked for me. You must be rooted for this to work.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] eddiert:
What are we talking about here? My GPS works fine as far as I can tell.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
There is a known problem with the GPS not locking or it taking a long time to lock on your location. Some phones may not have this problem if your lucky! Samsung is aware but they haven't done anything about it yet. This fix us is suppose to take care of the problem. And it did fit me! Before my navigator would not work at all, now it works great!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
I will try to work on posting a guide soon, there are quite a few steps involved doing this without a PC. But you must be rooted first.

For those who have already updated to 2.3.6 I'm not sure if you can still root, nor if the GPS fix is included in the update for AT&T

[Samsung Captivate Glide] eggwolio:
I've had no problems with GPS so far. It always gets a fix on my location almost immediately.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] gattman:
+1 on no problems with GPS. I came from the original Captivate and the GPS on the Glide is much better.

Here's a tip for anyone still using the original. Take the back cover off and get a Body Glove hard rubber case. The GPS was awesome once I figured out the back cover interfered with it. Worst part is I didn't figure that out until right before I replaced it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] gtdRR:
OP, are you completely stock or have you changed kernels/rooted?

I had major issues at one point after rooting and messing with kernels but it ended up just being a bad flash.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
Yes at least for me it did!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
Not sure if there is a problem on all glides, but both my wife's and my phone did not work at all. I used this method to fix mine, but have not been able to did her's yet, since she did the update to 2.3.6 I'm afraid to try to root , at least till someone can verify that it can be rooted after the update!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] eggwolio:
I rooted after the update. It flashed me back to 2.3.5 firmware, but I still have the 2.3.6 kernel, sans CarrierIQ. I am unable to update via the OTA option in the phone, and have yet to try flashing another option, but the updates don't really seem all that important to me, as long as I'm CIQ-free.

Thanks, I may try to root her's in the upcoming few days.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fokezy:
I'm not an Android expert...one day I might be but for now I want to know some things...

1.How did they pull of the CWM on locked bootloaders,how does the bootloader allow us to boot onto something different than the boot partition?

2.How come you can boot into CWM but you can't add custom kernels,is it some sort of bootstrap(I dont know what that means)?

3.AndroHero said something about stock kernels being recompiled for OC and flashed with a locked bootloader...how hard is that for doom/someone else to do,why hasn't it been done before?

4.Can we make the /boot folder redirect the boot process to say..../boot2 with a stock based rom?

As Galaxy S owners, we are all united. As Android users we are all united. As far as Samsung is concerned we are all NOT created equal. Our device, the Vibrant (SGH-T959), is now being left to the wayside for any future updates from Samsung even though our core specs are extremely similar to the Google Nexus S, which has already received the ICS update. The CyanogenMod team has left us due to the on-going issue of 911/e911 and the lack of the proper code from Samsung to alleviate a potentially fatal result of a custom ROM. It is our intentions to serve Samsung with a petition asking for the update to ICS, which will in-turn, alleviate the 911/e911 issue as well.

We are asking all Galaxy S users to sign this petition to get Samsung to reconsider giving all top end Galaxy S devices the ICS update. Please help us with our goal and sign the petition. If you are on a Galaxy S phone, this affects you too.

Thank you for reading this and please see this link for more details and this link to sign the petition...

Please remember that every sign counts. Whether you believe in the movement or not, still sign. Whether you believe that Samsung will even listen or not, still sign. Whether you have a phone or just browsing the forums phone-less (which would be kinda weird), still sign. When people come together things can happen. Wonderful things. Let's make a difference! One sign at a time :D
