[Kindle Fire General] Red_Gh0st:
Is the Kindle Fire really worth it? I'm thinking of getting one and root it.

Also, I heard that when you root it you can install te Android Market but is there anything more that can be installed or done?

Thanks in advance
[Kindle Fire General] CTTKDKing:
Worth it is subjective. I can tell you that to me it was worth it.

The stock setup out of box is actually really nice, and if you use Amazon's services like Prime it's a great media consumption device.

That being said, I do have mine rooted and I have it loaded with CM7 (hopefully 9 in the near future) and it makes a nice little android tablet. For $199 I have no complaints and I have it doing more than its supposed to because of the rooting. I think that even if there was no ROMs for it though that for $199 it's a great all around device and well worth the money. Some may think differently but that's what I think.
[Kindle Fire General] Red_Gh0st:
Thanks for replying.

What is CM7? Its OS?

AlsO, can you tell me exactly what can you do with a rooted fire? Apart from indtalling the Andoid Market?
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
The keys for me are:

o Titanium Backup enables me to get a good backup of all the apps and freeze ones (bloat) that I don't want running.

o ScreenShot. Need a on device way to do screen captures. Up to ICS, this requires root for most devices.

o Keyboards. Use non-standard keyboards like Swype and Thumb Keyboard

o Ability to tweak system info and configs.

Below is small list of root only things I use...

o AdFree

o Google Apps	(Android Market, Gmail, Calendar, Google+, Maps*, Talk*, Translate*)

o QuickBoot

o Root Explorer

o STTS Susan	(not fully working yet)

o Screenshot	Using instead of Shootme

o Super Manager

o TWRP 2.0	Recovery Manager

o TaskSwitcher

o TetherGPS	Root needed to modify the settings.db to enable it, but not needed after installed. Enables the use of GPS via another droid that acts as a server

o Thumb Keyboard	(tricky to install but not hard)

o Titanium Backup

o Voodoo OTA RootKeeper	(how to allow for use Amazon Videos after you have rooted)
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
cm7 (cyanogenmod 7) is an alternate os (rom)

with this it is like any other tablet with android 2.3.4 (gingerbread)
[Kindle Fire General] Red_Gh0st:
Ok thanks for all te info
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xdaolive:
Hey Guys,

is there a way to get the old Samsung Clock back! As i know it is based on Touchwiz that will be difficult. But the clock was just great in my opinion.

Simple, clean, straightforward interface with all necessary functions.

Thanks and enjoy your nexus

Looks good
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bso44:
So with my TF101, the tablet powered up right when I plugged in the charging cable so I'm assuming it does the same with the Prime. Should I power it down immediately and charge it for 8 hours or should I go through the initial set-up and then power it down and charge it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
I personally powered it up, ran the setup, then let the battery run out, then did a full charge. Mine is fine after doing it that way, and from what I have heard these batteries don't really need any conditioning or anything like that so it shouldn't matter too much.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bso44:
How much juice did your Prime initially have out of the box?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fradworth:
mine only had 4% out of box so I had to charge from the getgo.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
i think around 10% or a bit less?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bjohnston115:
i had 28% out of the box, went trhough the setup then plugged her in.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sebring003:
Power on

Just got my Prime delivered from Office Depot(yea!) I'm a bit nervous because I plugged it up and the screen briefly lit up and I thought I saw red battery icon. The unit wont power on so I'm hoping it just needs to be charged up. Anyone else had this happen?

Thanks,

Wann
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lao Mayer:
You can check the power button while charging, to see if it's really charging or not. Lots of problems with OEM charger made me look more often at that little LED.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sebring003:

I must have been impatient. I was able to start it up after 30 minutes

[HTC Rezound] WizeGuyDezignz:
Hey guys! Long story short, I unlocked, rooted and installed Clockwork as my recovery and it kept hanging when I was trying to do a backup.

I got frustrated and impatient so I just flashed CleanRom without doing a backup first. I love CleanRom and all, but if I wanted, can I go back to stock now that I don't have a backup?

Any info would be appreciated, thanks!
[HTC Rezound] flexor224:
What is your definition of stock? Unrooted? Relocked? Untouched rom? Somemore information would be helpful to guide you in the right direction.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
If you want to go back to stock. Relock your phone and grab the RUU. It will put you back from whence you came.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
Uber :facepalm

First and foremost read THIS from beginning to end. Stop posting questions in the Dev section...despite how special you think you are...you're not. Post in general or maybe searching is a great idea.

If you want a stock ROM here. To go back to complete stock you need to relock the phone and flash the latest RUU IIRC...
[HTC Rezound] blkhwk5177:
What smart azz he must think owns xda
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
May I ask who you are referring to?
[HTC Rezound] WizeGuyDezignz:
I just mean rooted but without a rom. Basically all of the same bloat, files, etc that the phone came with.
[HTC Rezound] jaysckap:
I would say you :)
[HTC Rezound] WizeGuyDezignz:
Damn man, how about you relax for a minute? I never said I was special, so I don't know where you got that from.

I'm sorry that I posted this in the wrong forum. A mod can move it if they would like.

Oh, and thanks for the info. :D
[HTC Rezound] Evo4gLI:
I would say you're the dumb ass here buddy. Development forum is for exactly that: DEVELOPMENT. How many times does it need to be said? Apparently quite a few for it to get through the thick heads of people like you.
[HTC Rezound] azgoofball:
Someone is having a bad case of the mondays,, or just a plain jerk..
[HTC Rezound] WizeGuyDezignz:
Guys, can we stop the fighting? I've already apologized for posting in the wrong forum. That's my bad.

Can a mod please move this? Or even close it will be fine since I got the info that I needed.

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] jaysckap:
Are you a mod? Don't you have anything better to do than hide behind a computer and act tough. People like you are the reason XDA fell apart. Grow up act like an adult, if you can't help someone than keep your mouth shut. Let the mods do their job
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
Where's the development?

My post wasn't all that bad and we all provided the info the OP needed.

/thread
[HTC Rezound] pkopalek:
Most of the ROMs available are basically stock with minor, stable modifications. I feel pretty stock on ineffabilis and it feels true to the phone.

And the early (negative) respondent reminds me of Nick Burns, Your Company's Computer Guy

YouTube it
[HTC Rezound] azturbomini:
Yes it was.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
People posting in wrong sections and asking questions that have been asked about a million times get's very annoying. Have at it if that is what YOU want...if the OP would've used the search function, he/she would've found what they were looking for.

If you guys want to continue to baby people and spoon feed information to them then knock yourself out. If you post a new thread non-development thread in a development thread be prepared. ;)
[HTC Rezound] YamiYaiba:
Jesus H. Christ on a pogostick, people. A "Development" forum isn't just for the Devs. It's also for people using the fruits of the devs' labors. Sometimes, they have questions. If they didn't, they'd probably be developing on their own, and XDA wouldn't need to exist. Sure, using search is advisable, dare I say it, recommended. But there is no reason to get nasty.

I've been a part of XDA since WinMo 5, and I left for a long time due to nastiness like this. I'm no developer. I just use what gets made, and I'm damn grateful for it. But there a reason XDA is slowly seeing a mass exodus to RootzWiki: Less (but still existent) dickery. Yes, what the devs do is a courtesy to the community. No, they shouldn't have to answer the sane questions repeatedly. The search doesn't always cut it, and it isn't always used. Wouldn't it just be easier to either quickly answer and encourage search usage politely or to quote and respond with a link to the relevant post? Even better yet, those of us that aren't devs but are at least semi-knowledgeable could give our service to the board and aid the devs by politely answering in their stead. Novel frickin idea.

/rant
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
If you took one peep at my first post in this thread I provided the OP exactly what he was looking for and more. I didn't just be a **** and exit the thread as I have seen quite a bit on this particular forum. Do you realize more than half the time the Devs aren't the ones answering the repeated questions?

Anyway..you guys can continue to cuddle each others nuts and babysit one another and provide no help to the OP.

I'll exit this thread by quoting one of the Rezound forum Moderaters:

Have an awesome day ;)
[HTC Rezound] pstevep:
Sweet Odin's raven.. Why does everyone get their panties in a bunch around here.. (hypothetical)

Questions go in general forum until there is a q&a forum. OP got his information, and no one was a douche about telling him where to post. Education isn't bad.

Watch the attitudes with each other, thanks and good morning..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JamTheMan:
Hi

I have been developing for some time now and have run into a strange new problem (feature?) on my GTab101 running 3.1.

When I connect it in Debugging Mode the LogCat in Eclipse is spammed for what almost seems like eternity with the same message:

[_GetCpuInfoSerialValue] ends; Result[0X0]

Serial Value [364790b0ba3f057e

]​

This goes on for a few minutes and then it seems that the system gets overloaded and instead logs Error messages ever ½ second with the Tag LiveSession saying Buffer is Full - which I am guessing is related.

I cannot seem to find anything on this on Google, so I was hoping someone in here might know what is going on?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JamTheMan:
Bump...

Still got the same problem, and no info at all on it... Anyone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinhassi:
Same here...

Anyone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JamTheMan:
I had kinda forgotten about this thread, but I can add that the new Galaxy Tab 7.7 I just got a week ago does the same thing. My 10.1 doesn't do it anymore though, after I have installed CM9 on it!

So it seems to be Samsung/TouchWiz thing. Still don't know exactly what it is though, but might have something to do with it setting up the connection to the computer/ADB...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinhassi:
Same on my Galaxy S2, ICS4.0.3

The problem comes form the MtpApplication service which in charge of the USB connection.

But I can't think of anything you can do with that info...

[Xperia Arc General] tinyXperia:
I'm suprised it has a microsd slot:
[Xperia Arc General] Zedd.:
Why do I get the feeling that the NXT Xperia line does not come with removable batteries or am I mistaken?

Plus, the lock screen notifications look eerily similar to WP7 icons and design.
[Xperia Arc General] rkanwar:
That looks well sexy. That might be my next phone
[Xperia Arc General] soldiers33:
omg so hard to choose the nozomi or this. I wonder what else is coming.
[Xperia Arc General] ShyamSasi:
Too bad it's just for US for now.
[Xperia Arc General] jtc42:
I cannot WAIT until we get an update to this UXP. Judging by these screenshots, Sony have developed a sense of style! :D
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
So what about Europe? Or Xperia S is for us?

Anyway it looks really good.
[Xperia Arc General] tyrand3:
I hope we can get more "sony" style not SE style!
[Xperia Arc General] batman_112:
So what is the difference between the Xperia Ion and the Xperia S? Just the screen size and at&t LTE support? Will the Xperia S also be available in the U.S. through Sony Style off contract?
[Xperia Arc General] Kifsito:
So Xperia™ S have frontal camera, but ion doesnt?

that makes a difference when using with apps like skype, for me at least.

Edit: Ion specs are impressive, i wonder why SE cant offer the whole package when designing a phone :(, i badly wanted frontal camera on a phone like this.
[Xperia Arc General] batman_112:
They both have a front facing camera, don't they?
[Xperia Arc General] jtc42:
To be honest, I'd be surprised, upset, and confused if they don't keep a consistent UI across all their phones, so I'd expect the new UXP on ours to look more or less the same as on the Ion and S.
[Xperia Arc General] tyrand3:
Of course it will be same UI

just like x10 gingerbread is same like arc gingerbread right?

:D
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
You shouldn't expect the new UI to be available on 2011 phones. Sony Ericsson has to differentiate. They'll keep the Android version updated for as long as it takes, but you won't see a new UI for old phones. They did that once with the X10 (to 2.3) because the X10 really deserved another update, but I can't see it happening with their current line-up.

You have to differentiate between old and new at some level. The interface SE uses is always fitting with the physical design of their phones. Updating the interface would break the cohesion.

And, with the different resolutions, it might not be as easy as we think. They'd have to redo a lot of the graphics to make stuff from a 1280x720 display work properly on a 848x480 display.

But we'll probably see someone at XDA backport the whole ROM. Shouldn't be that hard either, their foundations are probably more or less the same.
[Xperia Arc General] jtc42:
I can't work out if that's sarcastic, but I thought it was the same so I'm guessing not.

I really hope they do update it. The Arc UI style at the moment is.... dated at best :p
[Xperia Arc General] Kifsito:
oh ur right!! my bad.

Then i guess ill be waiting for an international version of those phones!! :)
[Xperia Arc General] iridaki:
Ion will be exclusive to US and AT&T, but I think S will be its EU version.

I'm excited! :D
[Xperia Arc General] masud7827:
I want the new UI in my Xperia arc, Looks awesome. SE or Sony knows how to design a phone :D
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
Xperia S is great and like a dream machine.

But why the **** oh why the battery is sealed and no memory SD card???

Why everybody takes this ****ing iPhone philosophy!!!

I'm so pissed I think about switching...

I am really mad all those producers have to **** up something in the end.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MV10:
Does anyone know of an app that will activate the screen when the camera detects motion? I don't want to take a picture or stream video (all of my searches return "security" apps which do this). I just want the screen to come on.

I have an older tablet that I want to just leave plugged in as a weather forecast display. I figured it would be nice to have it turn off when nobody is around...
[HTC EVO 3D] ozturkselcuk:
Hey there, this is my first HTC and Evo. Actually it's an HTC Evo 3D GSM. Rooted and on a stock 2.3.4 rom and stock kernel.

The thing that bothers me is the low res caller screen. I linked many Google contacts with their Facebook accounts. And set their caller pictures as well. But they are in so low resolution that actually i can count the pixels. I couldn't find an option for this and it's pretty annoying. Do you guys have the same issue, is this an Evo 3D thing, or is it just me? :confused:

You can see it in attachments.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Mine is slightly pixelated, but not even close as yours. See example below:
[HTC EVO 3D] ozturkselcuk:
Yeah, mine has no hope. But i figured out something. The resolution of the caller picture has the same resolution which is used in little, tiny thumbnails on "People" section of contacts. I'm pretty sure that i dont have to change them manually. This shouldnt have happened at all. This is my third android phone. First one was Galaxy Mini, second one was LG Optimus Black. None of these used to have this kind of weird problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
Mine does the same thing. It does look nasty.
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
If you have the contact picture stored on your sd then you can just edit the contact threw the people app and reapply the picture. I go threw the same thing after I wipe cache & davlik cache. It takes me like a good 35 to 40 min to reapply all the pictures in my contacts. I just leave it untill I have some down time to reapply them. Unfortunately I haven't figured out why this happens or a fix for it so I just work around it. Hope this helps.

Locked & Loaded

""shooter on Deck""
[HTC EVO 3D] Showtime7:
That's terrible quality. I haven't had an Android phone yet that had half-decent contact photos UNLESS I was using HTC facebook contacts sync (as shown by tgruendler's post). I think it's a known problem with Google that they've failed to even address at this point. Once the contact becomes a google contact, the photo goes to crap. Even if the contact is stored only on the phone and the pic is on the sdcard, you're still probably going to have a bit of pixelation going on. My advice is use facebook sync on a sense rom. Sucks but that's the only thing that's ever really worked for me.
