[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leeackky:
As you said JJe, it is a CPW rom, and I knew it was an old one, but it's odd that CPW are sending refurb phones out with such an old ROM on it. I've decided to bite the bullet and go with the original ROM that I got with my first phone...

Product Code: GT-I9100LKACPW

Version: Android 2.3.3

HIDSWVER: I9100XWKE7/I9100CPWKD1/I9100XXKE4/I9100XWKE7

Bypassing this and going for...

I9100XWKI4/I9100CPWKH1/I9100XXKI1/I9100XWKI4 (2.3.4)

This is the original firmware plus KIES update to 2.3.4! I know that CPW were sending NEW phones out with this, so this will have to be my BackUp If my hardware blobs.

I'ts a shame I couldn't find the original ROM/Kernel. Checkfus did come in handy after all.

Many thanks for your help and patience you 3.

Now I just got to cope with FBI shutting down MEGAupload, as most of the Rom's etc reside there. :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coffmad:
hey ya, lets say someone i know (wink ;D) is employee at carphone warehouse, and to tell you a fact, the repair centres tend to care very little if youve changed the firmware, at most they will charge you £10 to 'upgrade' the software to the latest official release, if you cant find it, i really wouldnt worry to much, most staff dont even realise what the yellow non stock firmware triangle is, though i would be sure to get rid of it just incase you get one clever clogs ;) but for the most part, no big worry really :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leeackky:
Just my luck flashed new ROM and i'm gettin "The process.com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" :( every 5 minutes when i'm navigating through menus and that.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Make sure you have wiped data/cache and dalvik cache via recovery (If you have CWM recovery) otherwise pick a rom from the stock rom thread that says wipe, flash it via odin, then flash the new rom you want.

Just my luck flashed new ROM and i'm gettin "The process.com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" :( every 5 minutes when i'm navigating through menus and that.

Turns out that it's incompatible with my sim card, the phone works fine when I remove it, but as soon as I put my sim back in I get the same error?

CF-rooted fine,CWM etc ok, but still this error, might have to try another ROM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leeackky:
Sussed It!

Flashed to XXI1, then flashed the CF-Root Kernel and wiped it, looked like veyka, it was my Backup that I was Restoring, because now it works fine with the SIM card, something from the Backup from that ROM was incompatible with XXI1!

Got just a DATA backup on CWM from main backup, will see what I can restore safely!

Got Yellow Triangle, no Jig. will try SuperOneClick method

Trial and error eh? ;)

Thank you again. (buttons pressed.)

Hi all! I'm in the process of making a very simple (and fast) multi-language TTS app. So far it has English, French, Spanish, and German as its available languages.

I run it alongside svox (which itself is free with free trials of languages) and can switch between English and French (because that's all I have installed right now) with ease.

I am using a 3.2 inch touchscreen phone on Gingerbread for this application, so I would appreciate it if anyone here with a larger touchscreen could test it for me.

Screenshots:

I would also appreciate it if you could report any problems/errors/etc. as this is my first app.

EDIT: Landscape mode now supported

Hey guys

I have been playing around with miui for the past week and was quite disappointed at how much quieter everything seemed compared to stock. I started trying to improve the volume but all i got was distorted noise. Anyway, after a lot of experiment i have found the right combination.

Just want to point out that i am not responsible for any damage to may cause to your phone in trying this.

I am running BlendMIUI v9

What i did:

1. disabled xloud in build.prop. changed ro.semc.sound_effects_enabled= to false, ro.semc.xloud.supported= to false and persist.service.xloud.enabled= to 0.

2. downloaded Volume+ (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1449513) credits to meltus for this amazing app.

3. set settings to:

speaker modifications=enabled

virtual room effect=disabled

eq settings=spoken word

volume level=+10

bass enhance=0

advanced settings - speaker modifications=disabled

left eq settings at bottom untouched.

4. disabled the eq in the music app. It is important to disable any other eq settings/programs for this to work, including dsp manager, as the 2 conflict.

With anything other than these settings the sound was very distorted but these settings are clear and alot louder. Just wanted to share my experience and hope it helps somebody else.

If i have helped you please click "thanks"

Cheers

Brezzz
[Xperia Arc General] taaviu:
Is built-in dsp manager don't help...with this you can easy hack your speaker volumes.
[Xperia Arc General] brezzz:
DSP manager would not work for me, only got distortion. this is the only method that worked for me so thought i would share :D

Hell no! Its the King of tablets it you actually use it for more then Angrybirds and videos.

Can take a beating = Check

Awesome stylus for notes = Check

Great screen and good performance = Check

Its one of the great mysteries why this tablet isn't the most sold and used tablets on Xda.

and now with root access!: )
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] soulctcher:
I have a Prime and my wife has the ThinkPad. I would say that between the two, the ThinkPad can take the beating for sure and I'm definitely jealous of the stylus, however I would love to keep what I have and just add the stylus ability. Either way, I would definitely agree that the ThinkPad is still a kick-ass tablet.

Congrats on the root all.

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Zeab:
Not sure but it appears that you can't have your tablet encrypted and get root. Mine is encrypted and during the process it just hangs after the first time you press a key to continue. Tried several times and at one point gave it an hour but nothing.

That being said, I did a factory default and was able to get root no problem. I was also able to encrypt it again after and I still have root. My tablet finally has full potential.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] qdmcgraw:
I removed basically all of the Lenovo apps by brute force and other than having to reboot the tablet twice due to some force close loops that occurred when deleting certain apps, everything went fine.

Then I started ****ing around with SystemUI.apk, and now I'm missing the bottom bar...

Root problem - adb drivers for x64

Hi, i have problem with root - it alwas ends with

* daemon startet succefully *

I think, that problem is with drivers for tablet, but original adb drivers from lenovo is only for x86 windows - witch drivers are usable for x64 windows and this root exploit?

thanks
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Koshu:
These worked fine in my case (Win7 64Bit):

Thanks, but this is not works for me - what kind of proc you have? AMD x Intel? I have intel ...
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] homek:
I rooted successfuly yesterday. This morning I got an update from lenovo? And the root is gone. Moreover, now I am getting "Exploit failed" when trying to root again.

[edit:] I do not think it was ota2. The build number is now: A210_02_0037_0075_US.

However, I do have superuser but it does not provide super user privileges. I also tried hard resetting but the superuser app stays and I am unable to use the root exploit ("exploit failed"). Anybody has a clue?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Koshu:
AMD, but i thinks these are standart adb files with just an edited inf file to match the usb id of the thinkpad. The problem is something else, probably. Anyway you can modify the adb driver yourself following this tutorial:

Yeah, it's working - problem is something else, i'm noob :D - TPT install two differnt devices after connecting - I tried intall ADB drivers to wrong device ... so now it's working

Is your tablet encrypted ? If yes, you might need to decrypt, root and then encrypt back in.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] manuelcalavera:
nope , its not .
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ipeople:
I had the same error during the process, but eventually it all worked - I'm not sure whether they were exactly the same, because it worked so I did not deal with this too, but I'm sure. that made ​​it fail at superuser.apk

I know it does not help, but maybe it means that this is not a problem that you are looking for
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] manuelcalavera:
Thanks, but every time after the root process, I check with Titanium Backup to see if it has gain root access or not . well, it does not have it yet
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Janis:
I thought I'd state the obvious, just because it's something I miss when I follow instructions. I had to reboot both the Win7 machine and the TPT to get things to line up properly. I actually had to reboot the WinPC twice during the process, once before a driver reinstallation, and once before running the rooter. I botched it the first time because I plugged the tablet in to early in the PC boot process. Like I always tell my mom, "When in doubt, reboot."
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
WHICH ONE?

Im confused. There are many models of the ThinkPad Tablet. I have an X201t, laste year's model with core i7 CPU. Will this work on mine?

Just rooted my 32gb 3g tpt, fantastic and so easy got it done in less than 10 mins, (some of that was because I had my phone plugged in as well and it got very confused.

My only worry is that lenovo fix the whole in a patch then we wont have root again, I am going to uninstall some bloatwear tonight but just wondered if we will be able to get root again if lenovo patch it. Will just have to wait for some custom roms I guess.

I can't for the for the life of me get ADB to recognize my TPT. It shows as TPT ADB Interface in device manager after modifying the INI for the drivers, but ADB never finds it.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] stewarta:
Did you follow the installation steps linked here: http://thinkpadtabletforums.com/thi...ent/complete-setup-guide-android-sdk-and-adb/?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] PurpleBrad:
I did, The drivers in the first step would not install for me until I modified the .ini as mentioned lower in that thread. Ensured that I have the latest JDK and my Android SDK is up to date, with the necessary components installed.

Others have mentioned having success after factory restting the device, I haven't tried that yet...
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Koshu:
Which Operating System are you using? 32 or 64Bit?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] jhankinson:
Get Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper. It allows you to protect root and then restore it after a new OTA update is installed. I haven't tested it on the TPT since I haven't gotten an OTA yet but based on all the checks it does it should work. Also it would be good to install CWR and make a backup now that you're rooted, then if you mess something up you can restore.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] paperclip69:
Hi, thanks for the reply, very helpful, I wasn't sure what cwr was and there seems to be quite a few issues so I was going to wait till it settled down before going any further.

Is there a thread you can point me to that goes into detail about cwr?

Cheers

Tom
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] paperclip69:
Ok clockwork recovery got that and know what it is as I have it on the desire. Still doesn't seem quite stable enough for me to risk yet on a works tablet.

Thanks for the ota protection though have installed it and will wait for an ota to be finaly released

Cheers

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] PurpleBrad:
I've managed to fix it, and I'm now rooted! Was super simple after getting the driver working.

Lenovo has blocked the current rooting process, I sent my TPT for repair and now it is impossible to o it.

I now have the A310_02_0039_0089_WE and the lenovo mobility manager keeps on popping-up with, apparently a block to the process.

Check this post:

"Actually, that wont work because "Mobility Manager" during the (auto)update installs binary on the /system partition which is not wiped out on factory reset. That binary runs as daemon, it is started during boot, and one of the things it does, it verifies the permission of the /data/data/jaba.landesk.com/files directory."

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] toenail_flicker:
Sorry to hear. One very good reason I'll not send mine in for repair unless unusable and unrepairable by me or someone locally.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] stewarta:
Hopefully I won't be needing repairs ... but I did do an update, but still have SuperUser privileges (CWR, Nand backup, Titanium, Quick shutdown, and so on). How odd ... and annoying for you. It's a bit like Steve Jobs not trusting people to change a battery in an Apple device.

Actually, because I have persistent CWR the update didn't succeed. Well ... if it isn't ICS Mr Lenovo then I would rather have crummy old Honeycomb but with Superuser status.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Janis:
Not to be a killjoy, but since OTA #1, which didn't successfully run on my TP (it keeps up that annoying popup asking me if I want to install it), I haven't run any Lenovo apps. As much as I want to see if anyone's published something to reassign the hard keys (the stock browser is OK, but not great, and who needs a key for your default page?) in their app store, I'm not, because as soon as I launch anything, I know whomever published it (Lenovo) pretty much has access to my logcat, among other things.

There are lots of other ways to Manage your Mobility. This one isn't too huge to trade in for freedom to use the device as you see fit.

If you find a way to flash back to the original OEM ROM, would you post a link? Or better yet, keep a copy. This is the BS we went through with WinMo 6, although M$ had their paperwork in order; they were right.

You have to keep your link a step ahead of them if you want folks to be able to download it. And here I thought the Android community was committed to Open Source.... If the device came with the ROM, that's the ROM I bought a license to use. If they want to throw me bones to keep up with the competition, great, but that's not what I bought.
