[Eee Pad Transformer General] mbreezy:
So, after having my TF for about 4-5 months, I decided to get the keyboard. Why not sooner? Well, I had a laptop and I wanted just a tablet - which I happen to love. However, I'm deploying (again) this week and I don't want to take a laptop and tablet.

I've researched some of this, but here's some of my questions....

1. Is there any way to swipe scroll with the pad? I use Google Currents and I noticed that left/right keys don't cycle through the stories. Instead of clicking and dragging I just swipe the screen. Any way to do that with the keyboard?

2. If I read the manual I can probaly figure this out, but what are the circles on some of the keys for? (1 and 6, up and down)

3. Not a question, but a statement, my palm always hits the track pad. Hit it twice since typing this.

4. Are there any cool tips and tricks with the keyboard? (aside from dropping a 750gb HDD in it)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
1. two fingers on the trackpad left and right should change the page

2. they are just references to highlight reference keys

3. F4 (the 3 squares with the line through it toggles the track pad on and off

4. some guy made his chrome instead of brown
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mbreezy:
That's what I'm talking about. Thanks for the tips.

Anyone have anything else?

This thing is awesome, where have I been?! lol
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mbreezy:
One of my favorites is the back button is a right click. That and I was able to change the cursor from the circle to the pointer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
all thats mod-able too if your rooted

you can change functions with tasker and you can change the cursor to something less blue.

last tip is that when you are using the arrow rather than the circle multitouch gestures on the pad don't work although if you want i can throw together a package to make it look like the pointer and act like the circle
[Eee Pad Transformer General] combat goofwing:
Hate to hijack it but I would be very interested in a file that gives you the arrow pointer but the multi touch of the circles

[Eee Pad Transformer General] mbreezy:
Thanks for all the great advice!

To do the pointer mod, do I need to root?

I don't mind rooting, but I've everything set up exactly like I like it and you know what a pain it is to reinstall the apps, getting everything straight and logged in, etc.

You know what would be a cool mod... Automatically disable the touch pad after 10 keys (or something) are entered consecutively. Or the user can change the amount. Right now I turn off the pad manually before posting on here, but if it would recognize I'm typing something lengthy that'd be awesome. Is it possible?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
haven't tested it yet but this should work just replaces the pointer_spot files with pointer_arrow files

and if it doesn't work flash this to get it back to normal

[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
you do need root to do the pointer mod and having clockwork mod would be helpful just use nacho root it is not destructive to data so you dont have to resign in

Im able to use the tablet for everything but highend gaming for portability and versatility it is fantastic.

Goodintentions has done a few hard mods to his docks, check it out for some ideas, I personally will be installing and additional set of batteries and a ssd, but am waiting because i will most likely be upgradingto the prime soon.

My only concern with having the tab without a pc is if it gets bricked, will you have access to a pc or mac where you are going...just in case.

Be safe on your deployment bro

I have found that sometimes when installing a new rom, you will get wifi errors. This is easily fixed by reflashing your kernel. I just reflashed what I had perviously, I have also heard that you can just reflash the stock kernel and all will be fine.

Hey everyone. I've had my phone for awhile now, and I love it. I've got it rooted and all that. I've played with a few custom kernals and roms, but I'm getting overwhelmed.

Heres my phones current setup

Model - GT-I9100

Android Version - 2.3.3

Baseband - I9100MUGKG2

Kernal - 2.6.35.7

hardcore@speedmod-s2 #k2-18

Build Number - GINGERBREAD.XWKDD

Here's what I want to do...

COMPLETELY wipe my phone. Back to stock. I've already got my hands on Odin, the stock Modem, Firmware, Kernal, and CSC from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1193695

I've been thinking about using the I9100XXKI3 or I9100XXKI4 (from the above mentioned thread) for the Modem and DXKL3 from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278) for the firmware...Anyone got any Pro's & Con's? You know, upon further reading I think that the DXKL3 package will overwrite everything to the latest official stuff. Can anyone clear this up for me?

Anyways, after that I want to root it, put on the Speedmod Kernal (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1182498) again or SiyahKernal (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263838), and maybe a custom ROM.

Now you're probably asking yourself "Wheres the question here?" Well, here it is...

I need someone to assist me in doing everything in the correct order so I don't run the risk of bricking anything. Anyone care to help? Please?

EDIT: I should let everyone in on my Android skills. I have it rooted, and I have the speedmod done. However, I followed some random guides on the back alleys of the internet and I'm not totally confident that I did everything correct, hence me wanting to completely wipe it all. I should also add that while I understand the basics, when using Odin I can get confused about what goes in the PDA, Phone, and CSC sections. I know not to have Re-Partition and Flash-Lock checked, and to pretty much leave PIT and BOOTLOADER alone.

Backup, full wipe, flash Intratech's DXKL3, flash Speedmod, done.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aaron0083:
I wiped it. I'm noticing a few weird things...

First, right after the wipe, the language was German. It was an easy fix, but still kind of weird.

Secondly, the intro animation of the S is orange, rather than the blue (which it originally was) Any ideas about this one?

Third and final, at first it wouldn't connect to my Bell network, or my home wireless. I found out that it was in Flight Mode by default. Anyways, a quick power cycle fixed that.

The phone is fine now, aside from the color orange S thing. I'm going to flash Intratech's DXKL3 firmware now.

UPDATE: I flashed DXKL3, which according to the thread, should update the phone to 2.3.6

Hi,

I am seeking the easiest way to root a friend's desire so that I can do a TI Backup . That's all I need.

1. I tried UNrevoked 3.2.1 method but it says that device "saga" is not supported...

Please help !! Thanks
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
Try the latest version of SuperOneClick with the zergRush option. With a date of Aug 2011 on the hboot, it might be old enough that SuperOneClick might work.
[HTC Desire S] charmainelooi:
Does not seem to work :
[HTC Desire S] foX2delta:
Unlock using HTCDEV, then flash a recovery of choice and then root using it.

Maybe you could temproot (without using HTCdev), maybe someone else could show you how to do that.
[HTC Desire S] charmainelooi:
awaiting for some gurus to assist with the temproot so that I can do a TI backup .. thanks
[HTC Desire S] bjlabuk:
I have exactly the same HBOOT details on my Desire S, which I purchased SIM free from Carphonewarehouse in the UK.

First you need to 'unlock' it. The easiest way is to use HTCdev unlock bootloader at

http://htcdev.com/bootloader

Register and follow the steps. The Desire S is not listed so choose 'All other supported models' at the bottom of the list.

When it tells you to download the Android SDK, don't ! Instead download and extract AndroidControl v1.3.1 which is explained at the following link

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1049115

When you extract it it will create a folder. Inside you will find the three files/applications that you need to complete the rest of the steps, ie adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll and fastboot.exe.

On submitting the details you will get the unlock_code.bin sent to your email address. Then just follow the rest of the steps and the phone will be unlocked.

Recheck the HBOOT screen and it should now show as Unlocked. However it will still show S-ON. I haven't figured the rest out yet.

I have come from a Samsung Galaxy 3 i5800 where once your phone is unlocked you can flash a custom pre-rooted ROM with ODIN.

I can't figure out what the flashing tool for HTC phones is. Anyone help?

bjlabuk
[HTC Desire S] charmainelooi:
Thanks , man. I am still surprised it's a lot of work to do a root .....
[HTC Desire S] bjlabuk:
Well, HTC seem to be very helpful on their site in providing the means to unlock the bootloader so that "users can customise their phones".

I am not sure what all this S-OFF and S-ON is all about. If it stopped users customising their phones then surely HTC would also provide the means to S-OFF the phone? So what is the advantage/need to S_OFF?

I am bit confused and the FAQs don't seem to help. My phone is unlocked but still S-ON. Surely I just need to root it now with Superoneclick?

bjlabuk
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
You need Security-OFF to flash hboot (bootloader) or different version of radio.

With htcdev bootloader unlock you gain the freedom to modify the Recovery, Kernel and System.

yes this should work
[HTC Desire S] bjlabuk:
Tried Superoneclick and the same happens as described above. It gets so far and then stops.

Tried Revolutionary and it starts and then says "Hboot 2.00.0002 not yet supported".

Gingerbreak doesn't appear to support 2.00.002 either.

I guess the latest Desire S can't be rooted yet by an exploit.

If HTC says unlocking the bootloader enables me to install a custom ROM, then how do I do it? Do I use a program and if so which one, or do I load a zimage onto the SD card and do it that way?

Also I can't find SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL mentioned in the STOCK ROMs. Does anyone know who PVT is intended for? Europe, India etc etc ? If I do intall a custom ROM I want to be able to flash back to a Stock ROM.

Sorry for asking so many questions.

bjlabuk
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
There are sticky guides that will give you all the info.

Hint (as already mentioned above): htcdev unlock allows you to:

1) flash custom recovery

2) flash custom rooted /all of them are/ ROM with the new custom recovery

3) flash the Kernel of the new custom ROM

4) be a happy rooted user
[HTC Desire S] bjlabuk:
Thanks, I was reading all the info for noobies you refer to, but am still confused. Guess the HTC is alot more complicated than my previous Samsung Galaxy 3 which I rooted and flashed custom ROMs to numerous times without problem.

I will keep reading!
[HTC Desire S] xxmorph3u5xx:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1390496&page=3

Hope this helps. also keep in mind that this only roots, does not s-off ur phone so the rom flashing process is a little more tricky but the solution is also mentioned in the development forums

LE: also, to achieve s-off this might come in handy as it downgrades your hboot and then i guess u can use revolutionary or any other tool to s-off.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1318919

After you are s-off go here for instructions on how to reflash the engineering hboot 2.00.0002

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1236890

Please read the threads carefully and ask when something is not clear as an unrooted phone is always better than a bricked one. i know that it seems complicated as s**t but it really isn't. if you are attentive and follow the given instructions everything should be fine.

Good luck!
[HTC Desire S] bjlabuk:
Thanks,

I have followed the first link and my phone is now rooted, but still S-ON, as you say.

I will read the other links.

I love my Galaxy Nexus, but what's driving me crazy is how it shuts down any app whenever I switch out of it, even if I use the -completely useless so far- multitasking soft key. So for instance I'm waiting for a YouTube video to load, so I temporarily switch out of it to do something else (this is a smartphone isn't it) and come back, and find it reopening the video as if I just did it. Same thing with the browsers. I have 2-3 tabs open, and decided to check out something on the homescreen. Big mistake. When I get back will have to wait for all the tabs to reload.

Anyway to keep apps running in the background?

If your using a Verizon nexus, it partly has to do with Verizon's cdma network, not just android. Plus it would slow your phones operation down and you would see more force closes due to limited resources.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
Most likely you have an app running thats killing processes. If you have any task manager/killer remove it immediately.

As far as youtube goes, youtube will NEVER keep a video paused or continue playing if you leave. It saves what you were on, but thats it. few reasons for that.

Now, my experience today and no issues.

Facebook, Browser (4 tabs), NFL'11, and twitter all running and they all saved what i was doing and none of them ever closed.

in fact, 3 hours after, the 4 tabs were still open. I've actually had tabs open for 3 days straight that i forgot to close and the browser just made new ones.

and these are not just text sites. I had the Battlefield 3 battlelog, nfl.com, battlefield wiki, and the verge mobile all on.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xaronax:
I can't find one fact in your entire statement. What could CDMA possibly have to do with it? Also, you wouldn't see more 'force closes'. When Android runs low on RAM it selects the oldest cached app and ends it, unless it's active.

1) go to settings, apps, running apps.

2) with that open, hit the multitask button that shows all apps running.

3) swipe away

4) watch it get killed off your running apps list.

5) grow up
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigf00t:
Im not sure what all the *****iness is about but the problen I and i believe the OP were having was quite real and serious.

Any time you switched out of an app or game, even if only for a second, when you switched back it would restart the app or game and in the case of the browser reload the webpage.

Now, ive uninstalled watchdog and the problem seems to have gone away.

Is anybody else using watchdog having this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
People need to understand that devs put this code INTO THEIR APPS. Killswitches are hard coded into apps to let the system kill them if they have been in the background. A good example is Opera Mobile. It has a low priority that is coded in BY THE DEV.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
Not possibly, I know I am. Home key keeps it running, back key caches/closes it. Certain apps perform differently as foreground tasks and some as background tasks. I think some can't be multi tasked like big games and stuff but as previously said that's on the dev side not androids.

I've found a new way to BLOCK ANY permission for android applications! :D Successfully tested denial on few different kind of permissions!

It's a great news for me, and prossibly to any of you too.

The application will be completely native except user interaction part (GUI), so lightning fast, and will have access virtually to any permission granted by apk itself. There will be much logic included to ease of use for unexperienced users, but also the advanced mode which will reveal all the system level functions/data. Advanced iptables control will probably be included also at the later development stages.

Any developer experienced with NDK + SDK is kindly asked to contact me.
