Netflix is always (as far as I can remember) offering a free month of service. You also may get paid for that month (via eBay, Bing etc. - google for that). So, I believe it's more than enough for adult (who has a valid cc and can legally sign for service). Of course for child or teen it's a big obstacle :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] skylurker:
I wanted to connect my galaxy note to my iPad's Mywi for wifi (ad hoc) connection.

Thus i did the following steps:

- root galaxy note using zergrush

- downloaded xda's replacement wpa_suppliant

- downloaded root explorer

- uploaded the replacement wpa_suppliant file to the phone and replaced the original one at /systems/bin

After this, my phone was able to connect to iPad's Mywi, BUT connection is VERY unstable and gets disconnected every 5-10mins. Also it takes really long to get it connected back, like about 10-15mins for it to try to get connected.

I've tried re-doing the WHOLE of the steps above, INCLUDING re-rooting my phone, but to no avail. My Wifi function was working perfectly fine prior to this.

Can some kind souls out there please advice me if I've done anything wrong in my steps? Or if there's any way to solve this? thanks!

Bump for same problem here.

Did you find any solution yet?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] redplate:
No, sadly i didnt. As long as i dont sign into the google account, android let me choose to add and store a contact either "local" or "Sign in online"

But as soon as i log into my google account to use the market, the contacts app gives me the message "Your new contact will be synchronized with abc@gmail.com" and only let me choose "Add new account" or "OK" to confirm this.

But i don't want to confirm to store my contacts online.

So the best solution would be, to get this option "local" back.

I rly refuse to click on "OK" hehe. I rly save my new contacts in text files now, i have no other choice atm.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] redplate:
Swichted back. Installing DroidWall seem to prevent Android going to sync contacts. Those bastards had all of my contacts synched. Even with sync disabled. As******* check out googles dashboard.

So install DroidWall and only allow programms you trust internet access. There is no need to grant android internet access, especially not the contacts and calendar app... what the hell.. thinking about going back to nokia with symbian as long as its supported. Very nice phones there

Is your phone in Kies mode or usb or???

Check:Settings-> Wireless...-> Usb-settings

Try different settings and see if your phone connects to your pc.

Kies sucks anyway.

Also forgot to mention...same as in flashing via odin... try to change usb-port in pc or if possible another usb-cable.

Kies is known for problems with it...specially updating via it.

Samsung is to blame for that.

In my opinion it depends from user to user, in my case kies worked without any problems, and when the phone softbricks you can easily unbrick it with odin^^

Ok im also more comfortable with Odin :P, but as a new user it is much easier to use Kies..

hi all,

i found that after a while flashing roms the "watch" app that plays videos stopped working and not giving the option to even press on the watch button .

after checking i found out that it is not supported by my area (israel) but it did use to work in the past after i bought the device and even after flashing some roms.

help will be appreciated.

This map is for the country that cant use Navigation on Google Map. It has been hacked and can be used by any country now.

update:

maps 6.9 works great here. just download and install. If install fails, remove the existing Maps from phone and install the maps 6.9

skip the following instructions.

Installation for root:

1. In Titanium Backup, select Maps and make a backup.

2. Select Maps and wipe data, then uninstall.

3. Select Street View and wipe data, then uninstall

4. Install Google Maps 6.9 apk

5. Go to market, and reinstall street view.(download it from the second post)

or ADB

First uninstall Maps from /system/app

adb remount
adb push /Google maps6.9.apk /system/app

Alternative installation method

Note:

For those who get the "Login Failed" message Pull down the status bar and press all three triangles and give permission then closing maps.

If you don't get the three warning triangles

1. Install original maps from market.

2. Sign in and join latititude

3. Back up maps in titanium, app and data.

4. Wipe date and uninstall maps

5. Install resign version. DO NOT RUN, reboot right after installing.

6. After reboot, go to titanium and restore DATA only.

If you are using Neutrino Rom (without Google Map) then just download and install the attached file. (dont forget to flash gapps lite, elze u wont be able to login in lattitude).

Uncheck auto-update for Google Maps on the market. This thread will be updated when new Google Maps version is out!

Thanks to Brut.all, ownhere and stian230.

maps6.9 rename the file name to "Maps" and then use ROOT explorer app put in system/app permission is rw-r-r.

maps6.1.1 ownhere-signFile.apk instructions can be found in the text above.

Thanks.

How to get navigation voice in your own language​

1. Download Classic Text To Speech Engine from the marked **HERE**

2. After installation, open to select the language you want (USD 2.99) to download. (or sideload ;))

3. Go to Android Settings -> Voice Input & Output -> Text-to-Speech settings, activate SvoxClassic at the bottom of the screen, then select SvoxClassic as the Default Engine.

Notes:

- Google Navigation requires that the Text-to-Speech voice matches the phone language. You can change the phone language in Android Settings -> Language & keyboard -> Select language.

Instructions:

1) Download a working version of the hacked map, its corresponding original version and the latest map version.

2) Extract from all apks their classes.dex.

3) Disassemble the classes.dex (hack, original & new) using*baksmali . This will create a folder of disassembled files for each classes.dex, viz., hfolder, ofolder & nfolder respectively.

4) Use a diff tool such as meld (in ubuntu) to find the differences in hfolder & ofolder.

5) Port the diff (i.e., modified parts) in hfolder to nfolder. Please make sure that they are the same file when porting (i.e., most of the other codes should match).

6) If you realise that the hacked file does not corresponds to the new file (i.e., same file name or file does not exists in nfolder), look for some codes (in the hacked file) that can uniquely identify it and search in the folder, using tools such as grep or find.

7) Copy all files in brut folder to nfolder.

8) Edit the files in brut folder of nfolder such that the references (some function calls to the map classes) in them point to the correct classes/files in nfolder.

9) Once all modifications are ported, assemble it using*smali *which will create a dex file. Name it as classes.dex.

10) Replace the classes.dex of the new map apk with the newly assembled classes.dex.

11) Resign the apk.

So, does this allow for the app to create routes without it being connected to the internet(neither wifi nor data)?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] njarun:
you need data enabled to download maps to your phone. once your map/route is loaded you dont need data connectivity. rest navigation can be done using gps. just turn the gps on. map will automatically locate u and without data connectivity.

nope....it gives u almost accurate location. even more correct location when u are on road! cool app with perfect navigation!!

rooting atrix is very simple if you know what you have to do!!! thanks to the developers.!! This is not the forum to guide rooting. please refer the atrix development forum!!

well i can give you the steps i did to root my phone and install custom rom!

1. download latest version of RSDLite (5.3.1)

2. Download zomgunlock-lite.sbf and atrix fastboot files.

3. Download Motorola Atrix USB Drivers, Install it. And connect your phone to Computer in RSD Mode (Power button + Vol up button)

4. Open RSDLite and browse the zomgunlock-lite.sbf. Click start if your device is shown in the RSDLite.

5. Wait untill the whole process is finished. Takes sometime, have a coffee :)

6. when the phone completes booting. Reconnect the device to system in fastboot mode.

7. Open Command prompt and open the fastboot folder

8. Enter the following commands

fastboot oem unlock

9. you will get a number. use the enter the same command with the number.

Enjoy your bootloader is now unlocked.

thanks for the apk,

titanium kept crashing while trying to unistall maps 6.12

so i ended up using manage applications instead and manually uninstalled updates, installed this apk and all is good

there's this weird bug though, it will say login failed when maps is first loaded, so i attempted to login, 3 error triangles appeared. I allowed all permissions and it goes on to login as normal. Maps then keep flickering and reloading map tiles constantly even when I left it untouched, it continued reloading map tiles. I rebooted the phone and still the same problem.

went back to manage applications again, uninstalled and re-installed apk. I am now using it without allowing permissions to login to my account and it seems to work as normal.

phone was SGS 2 stock 2.3.5

I've extracted 3 of the LWPs from an ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) rom. They installed fine as normal .apks on my i9100xxkp8 4.0.3 SGSII. They may work on 2.3 or 2.2 roms too.

EDIT: looks like the wallpapers will only install on ICS (thanks everyone for the feedback). Sorry folks.

Galaxy4.apk is a rotating galaxy. The official name is "Black Hole"

NoiseField.apk is a bubble LWP. the bubbles respond to touch.

PhaseBeam.apk is a pretty famous LWP. needs no explanation

See the attached pics for illustrations.

Enjoy :)

P.S there may be other LWPs I don't know about. anyone with a GNex/CM9 device is welcome to request a (stock ICS) LWP here. I'll try to search for it.

Actually these wallpapers do work on other android roms. I'm Running 4.1.2 Jellybean goodness rom on my gs3. You simply have to download the wallpaper file to your phone in the system/apps folder and go to properties on the apk and rewrite the permissions (i used es file explorer to do this) to match that of all of your other installed stock or modded apk's then reboot your phone and voila! it works!! :cool:
