I really liked Go Launcher until I started getting Force Closes on it left and right. I'm using it again now and so far so good. I loved it's calendar widget.

I must say I'm quite fond of the free ADW launcher. I have the Pro version as well, but I ended using the free version.

I turn off every scrolling/visual effects I can, change the backgrounds to black, and show a 5 x 5 grid. Its blazing fast, no redraws, just nice and fast...
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
TW 4.5 isn't in Infinity. TW4 Launcher is in InfinityROM, and TW4.5 is just a hacked TW4 launcher so that it can run on any framework. It may be older (or newer), and may not have as many issues, but that would depend on the people that are working with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] phukol:
Hello there guys, i have owned three different galaxy variants namely : m110s,m130k and gt-I9000. So far, its been a wonderful experience flashing and modifying except for the korean variants. ever since i softbricked my m130k, finding resources for it has been a headache, and all the people, including some guys here in xda are not that interested in the other lowly variants of galaxy s, even if they're also using korean variant like m110s. i have compiled some resources and links and i will post them one by one as i have the time. for now, im just asking all of you guys out their to help in making posting and helping out people using the said korean phones.

up until now, i haven't fixed my phone yet, i badly need the other files missing in the roms available in the internet, like dbdata.rfs and the likes.i know many guys using the same phones have also encountered such problem. anyway i would like to post this link, for those guys willing to use ADB or Heimdall and post some of their own phone files. thank you

>>>>>link for instructions in extracting phone files<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/building_roms_for_odin

ill also upload my own collected files as we go along.Thank you all. Attached here is a pit for m130k extracted using Heimdall.i have already used it and it can successfully repartition your device, note however that we cannot use the roms found in the internet because they only contain factory,zimage and modem file, so repartitioning will indeed BRICK your unit unless you use a complete rom fil for m130k.

e:/ cant mount /efs (shw-m130k)

hello guys. just giving an update on those persons having problems with their m130k. specifically the e:/cant mount issue. so far ive always been in the wrong direction. my phone was already working but it just keeps on resetting the settings on power up, as well as i cannot save anything on internal sd (it was detected as 0 bytes). so i searched and found possible solutions in pit. so i downloaded pit using heimdall, and used it to repartition my system. however, as worse comes to worse. this caused my phone to not go past the recovery screen, not being able to use my phone again and the cant mount error still occurred. in short, it made my problems worse. so i did some research and out of frustration, i tried using the EA20 revision for m130k. after flashing, all the cant mount error vanished. however, because i used repartition earlier, i still cannot go past the recovery console and the galaxy k logo is gone, replaced by anycall talk-love logo.

so for those who are in the same position as me and haviong cant mount problems,

i suggest using EA20 first to fix your phone and PLEASE do not REPARTITION. and for those who can give me a hand, ill appreciate that. thank you

Try installing an app that requires root or flashing a ROM.
[HTC Sensation] DrMadman:
1. Turn off fast boot (settings -> power), shut down your phone, hold volume down and press/hold power button until it boots into bootloader screen. If it says Revolutionary and S-OFF at the top you're ok.

2. From the same bootloader screen, select recovery with volume down key and confirm with pressing power key, it should take you to Clockworkmod recovery (or whatever recovery you installed). If it doesn't, you need to install CWM or some other custom recovery.

3. Install app that requires root, for example Titanium Backup.

If everything is ok, then you can go ahead and flash a custom rom from recovery if you want.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mountaindewmi:
I was messing with pre ware and managed to uninstall the stock music player. Is there any way to get this back without having to doctor?

I know there was a way to extract files from the TP and you can repackage into an ipk which I will try next with my friends TP I guess...
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jive Turkey:
First, check if you can reinstall the app from the App Catalogue, or Software Manager. I did this once on my Pre- and it was really easy to reinstall, I just don't remember which of these two apps I used. That was webOS 1.4.5, however, so things have changed and this may not work for you.

If that doesn't work, you can try copying the app from one TouchPad to another, or from the SDK to your TouchPad if you don't have access to a second TouchPad. For this, you will need access to the command line on each device. If you don't know how, you may want to stop following these instructions as you risk making things worse if you do something wrong. If you want to continue, you can install a Terminal app from Preware to access the command line, or you can use WOSQI from a PC. Here's the commands to enter to backup an app:

[B]cd /[/B] [I](press enter)[/I]
[B]rootfs_open -w[/B] [I](press enter)[/I]
[B]cd /media/cryptofs/apps/usr/palm/applications/[/B] [I](press enter)[/I]
[B]cp -rf [I]com.appyouwant.tobackup[/I] /media/internal/[/B] [I](press enter)[/I]
[B]reboot[/B] [I](press enter)[/I]

Those commands will copy the app to /media/internal which is the area that is mounted when you connect it to a PC as a USB drive.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mountaindewmi:
Thanks for the info, I'll hang on to that should I need it in the future. Strangely enough, I restarted webOS a few times while switching between CM7 and webOS and the app just appeared in the system, and on the launcher bar where I originally had it (and disappeared for a while).
[HTC EVO 3D] cheddaface:
I was wondering if there is a way to change the ip address on your phone? like when i use wireless tether can i change my ip some way?

help plz
[HTC EVO 3D] megabiteg:
Try taking out the battery of the phone nd leave it off for a couple of minutes, this may or may not work because there is a high chance that our phones have a dhcp lease which makes us keep the same IP address for some time.

Now you got to understand that if you want to fool around with the wireless provider IP you might get burned quick, you don't know their network structure nor subjects and dhcp policy; but it also begs my question: why would you want to do this???

Also, if your rooted and have busy box check for the ifconfig command.

[HTC EVO 3D] ssojyeti2:
You can download busybox installer from the market.

Not sure about 4g, but all you have to do on 3g is toggle it off/on. You can't choose the IP, but it will be different.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsadan:
I decided to try rooting my phone, and initially had succeeded using ROM Manager. Flashed ClockworkMod Recovery and successfully flashed a custom ROM (CM7).

However I decided to revert, so I did a restore of the nandroid backup I made using ROM Manager before flashing the custom ROM.

In the process my bootloader got locked, so I tried unlocking it using Fastboot. it worked, but once I unlocked it I lost everything - including my nandroid backup. it looks like my SD Card got wiped.

Is this normal, that doing a fastboot oem unlock would wipe everything, including the sd card? or am I missing something and is there some way to restore?

edit: curiously, it's still using my previous wallpaper in the launcher. that and the superuser app seem to be the only things that did not get wiped.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esteway.619:
Yes its normal. Every time u unlock the boot loader it will wipe everything on your phone including your SD card. It says it right when it ask u the yes or no thing. I think. But its normal. Sorry to hear u lost all your data
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JakeOcn:
It's normal
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
Fastboot unlock wipes like others have stated.

What makes no sense is how the bootloader get relocked. Simple put you can not relock the bootloader period on the device it self. Nandroid restore cant do that. You either relocked manually or used a one click root unroot thing from a computer.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quirell:
Of course unlock boot loader will wipe everything including SD card. But I wonder how you get relocked boot loader when you restore nandroid backup.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsadan:
thanks for the replies. I don't know if it says it on the screen where it asks yes or no, but I assumed it was ok since the first time round it didn't wipe my sd card.

I didn't use a one-click unroot; although I did hit "Unroot" by accident once in SuperOneClick, but that was before I actually rooted my phone.

Fortunately I didn't lose any important data, since I had most of it backed up before I rooted the first time (I was super cautious that time, got a little cocky the second time round since the SD card was ok after the first time).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marmundo:
Is there a way to recover it?

Guy, do you know a way to recover it. I made the process without pay attention in this thing. I already tried 2 differents recover software, but didn't work. Do you know a way?

I don't know the reason of software, because its scan the blocks even if the initial blocks has been erased.

Thanks a lot!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RipplingHurst:
If you're tired of threads like these, about GPS and the Prime, please leave. Nobody is forcing you to click and read. Stop. Go try to troll somewhere else.

For those who care, please keep going.

EDIT: I did more testing on page 9, adding a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi only to the mix: link.

I'm pretty happy with most aspects of my prime, and can't wait to get the keyboard. Without the keyboard, IMHO, the Prime is definetely not worth having. GPS sucks and wi-fi is weak, the iPad 2 is better for games, so don't try. Android for me is like a swiss knive, it should work anywhere, everywhere for a variety of purposes. Not for entertainment, but for traffic, cop warning, and navigation too, Google maps/navigator with google earth like satellite maps look incredible in the car, and the voice control is just the icying in the cake (as you can see, I have GPS in my Toyota too, but it's not even close).

But now I'm going to talk about GPS. I just did the latest update, and I took it for a ride. Bottom line is, it is improved, a bit, but it is still weak. Weak as in weaker than any other GPS I have, tablet or phone (including the Blackberry Torch, for instance, how old is that?).

In the above I have some pictures comparing it to another very good tablet, the Samsung 8.9 LTE.

For what follow, I have both devices connected via wi-fi to my Samsung Skyrocket to download maps. Both were used where I've never been before with neither tablet, so no cache or saved sats, as far as I can tell.

One tablet, the Galaxy tab 8.9 LTE was placed where it always is, in a Proclip USA cradle. The Asus Prime was laying screen side up on top of the center console, and the sunroof inner cover was open. Overcast/raining day.

Here's some pictures: Both connected to my wi-fi hotspot, "Wissenschaft der Logik".

Right after going 40mph after getting a fix (and stopping for pics):

But the Samsung is still going strong, no issues:

And as soon as the cars stops, the Asus reaquires satellites:

But it's very weak, no fix, and even when it gets a fix, the S/N ratio (and the precision) never is even close to the Samsung.

I had asked ProClip USA to produce a tablet holder for my car(s), but perhaps I should write back telling them it's not going to work for such purpose (or tourism, or train ride, or whatever else you'd like to use google maps for).

It's no scientific proof of anything, it's just a pictorial history of my findings. It's unfortunate that a high-end tablet lacks that feature.

To make matters worse, even when the GPS Test app reports a lock, it's frequently not enough for Google Earth to find the particular street I'm in. Just the general area is highlighted. Pretty poor, really. End of story.

If you have a different experience in the car, please post.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bscotth:
Thanks for the testing.

OT: What do you use to mount your Samsung tablet?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RipplingHurst:
Sure.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
you do know why the GPS is weak in Primes right?

in case not it's the aluminum condom they put on it to protect it from GPS signals....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] YoMarK:
Nice test, and it proves what we already knew: The Prime's GPS is weak.

So if you going to use it GPS/Navigation: return it, and buy another tablet. For everything else, it's the best android tablet by far.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] halloumi3:
Well judging by his post he doesnt seem to be too fond of it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
Why don't you use your car's own navigation system? :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
I can understand the complaints against GPS, but if it was me, and i was reliant on the GPS for work etc, i would simply just buy a GPS bluetooth reciever to use with it. Way i see it is the prime is worth the money without GPS chip. I'd prefer it working 100% but its not device critical especially when bluetooth GPS devices are cheap enough.

Think of it like the usual crappy headphones they package with things .. everyone always buys better quality ones to replace them ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thomslik:
There are always those saying, why don't you just use the car's GPS, or who would use it for navigation anyway? Apparently some people don't get out much. There are other forms of transportation and other outdoor uses which make GPS very desirable for some of us.

Using your rationalization, one could say why do you need a tablet? Why not just use a loptop? It's faster and does things that your tablet can't do.

The prime is a nice device, but it does have it's flaws whether you admit to yourselves or not. When and if Asus get's it completed, I may buy another.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mikeypopps:
Ehh

I get the same numbers that you were for accuracy, as in it floats between 100 and 60 feet but then I used it for navigation and it worked fine. So Im not sure if its just a reporting error.

I tested it with Run Keeper the other day and besides one small drop in the beginning It was spot on. I'll Try and upload pics to this post later Im at work now.

Mined you this was all before the update. So I'll give it a retest on the way home today and see if it improved. I will admit I did have it sitting on top of the dash so the antenna was facing directly skyward unlike your facing the driver setup.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
non-sense, it doesn't make any sense to try to use a tablet over a device that's designed specifically for the purpose that you're trying to accomplish. Now I can understand those who don't have GPS navigation in their cars being disappointed but it makes no sense to me of what I see the OP doing. Just my two cents.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordache16:
Agreed. And how many people own a tablet but not a smart phone?

People need to get over this gps thing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thomslik:
I could also say non-sense, it doesn't make any sense to build a feature in a device and decide it is OK for it not to perform as it should, and does in other tablets, just because you can use another device for that purpose. Any way you sugar coat it, and try to make it OK, it is a defect. Your attempts to justify this are just rationalization.

It is apparent we have different concepts of what is acceptable. Rather than continue this argument of opinions, we must just agree to disagree.

Good luck.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Azeolus:
This whole thing is pretty funny. You've got an LTE tablet and a WIFI tablet. The WIFI tablet is admittedly pulling data from a second device (a phone) and you are trying to use GPS out of the device with lesser connectivity.

The point is when you are out and about, the Prime cannot be used as a standalone device, it has to tether through something. I could see more of an argument if the Sammy's GPS was crap, I mean by giving it LTE it should work anywhere it can get a data signal. The Prime can't, you've got to use another device, which will have it's own GPS to even get the thing going in the first place.
