Nitpicking...

Not if you live in a neighborhood which has community bylaws. A friend of mine had to remove the roofing of his house (which was imported tile) at the cost of tens of thousands of dollars because his home ownership organization pointed out (after he had successfully gotten building permits and had installed it) that it did not conform to the covenants of the association... :rolleyes:

Ok... you said "just about"... :D

Again, a little broad... I am unsure if certain Unix vendors would offer you a license for their OS on your hardware. I remember when a certain corporation (cough! Sun Microsystems) became keenly interested in a conversation that I was having at a users group meeting... since I had said that I was running Solaris... (this was before it became open-sourced)... They began digging into my conversation to the point where I had to lie... and say that I had been mistaken -- that I was actually running a "look-alike!" :cool:

Thank you for agreeing. Yes, each and every one of us needs to be diligent concerning this issue.

Entertaining... but informative... is my motto... sometimes! LOL

Yes, I know... don't take offense. I was just having some fun. (My goal was to get it moved to the top of the forum listing... rather than just saying +1 or something similar... I tried to be entertaining... but informative at the same time. :))

EDIT: want to keep it at the top... until Feb 10...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] BAleR:
No offense taken i know
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Bumping this until Feb. 10...

10 more days until the government stops soliciting feedback on this issue...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] leo321:
How the hell would they enforce it anyway? I mean it allready voids any warranty, so whatever...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Issues with enforcement

Yes it would be difficult to enforce... as a legal issue.

But it would give carriers an excuse to not provide service... and since the owner would be an "outlaw" he'd be unable to rebut the carrier.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] LeapFrogger:
Of course your friend knew that s/he was buying in a deed-restricted community and probably even acknowledged same at his/her closing. We don't (currently) have to agree to such "terms of use" when we buy a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] error666:
Who cares what another stupid law they can come up with? It really doesn't make any difference unless they are actually able and willing to enforce it. And than again if they will find a way to enforce it there will always be a backdoor. It's just like the anti-piracy law. They can try to fight the piracy but they will never win.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dynamicpda:
I didn't like the choices or prices for the Galaxy Nexus LTE cases on ebay when I looked a few weeks ago. I figured I would look for the closest big phone on the market and find accessories for that. The closest match was the HTC Titan. I believe there are several models. I used the dimensions for the one sold by AT&T here in the US.

That lead me to this case:

ebay link

The quality is very nice. The phone is slightly recessed into the case from the sides, so if you drop it, the phone side edges are protected. Unfortunately, the top of phone protrudes slightly; the top lip of the case cuts across the middle of the gap between the speaker slit and the top of the phone curve. The fit is very snug. I'm very happy with the purchase.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gilbydakid:
Currently I'm running hatreds version of ics.

My question is, is there any custom kernels out for this? I've searches here, google, check a few other sites and to no avail.

I also checked KM for aosp kernels and the highest I could find was for android version 2.3.5.

Thanx in advance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropicalbrit:
No custom kernels yet, still working on stability. Basically all ICS ports for Evo come with a modded Tiamat 4.1.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] drnessie:
I would overclock the overclock to have face unlock. Seriously.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hom.hom:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8992815/xda/G1 T-MOBILE ICS/androidinstall.tar

This is the furthest I got and it doesn't even boot. It is a port from the version on the t-mobile g1, ported with the files of Scooter's gingerbread build. Give it try in logcat.

But I really don't think we got an change anymore (except when DZO comes back to develop for the kaiser:eek:), the kaiser is done, the kaiser had fallen....

The best thing you can do for face unlock is find an app in the market or something, besides I don't think the kaiser has the front facing camera to properly do face unlock. And the RAM and proc also make it very difficult to run on the kaiser....

I meant to say that the quality of the kaiser's camera probably not sufficient to pull off a proper and reliable face unlock: So I am sorry if you misunderstood!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] drnessie:
e

My kaiser has a front facing camera!

So, I'll try your build in HaRET, then PM DZO, but I don't have the time/money to get anyome interested in this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tomcug:
Of course it has front camera, but it doesn't work in Android :p.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] drnessie:
Oh.

Oh. Well, in that case, I guess I'll just stick to Gingerbread.

There's really nothing else that interests me in 4.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
Not to mention the rear camera doesn't even work in Gingerbread.

I'd suggest (no flames please) that you purchase an Android phone that meets the hardware requirements needed for ICS which, unless the carrier force-uploads an update or you manually update the OS, you'll have to research and possibly compile yourself.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] drnessie:
I'd rather just stay with an out-of-date phone than spend hours looking for my new "perfect" phone that I'll be proud of.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jirchy:
REUPLOAD? :33

Which kernel should I use?
[HTC Sensation] Akatosh:
Hey guys. I have the sensation and I have to say I am really annoyed by this phone, HTC sense repeatedly crashing but then I rooted and have many roms but yet again, since the beginning my phone always overheats., even after about 2 minutes of browsing the web. I've just ordered an anker 1900 battery and all I want to know is if I replace the battery, can I expect less overheating or is it something else?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Utorrent76:
Are you running any custom kernels? Also sometimes you get stuck with a defective battery.
[HTC Sensation] jasminthoria:
I am using anker since 1 months no problem twice long battery life. No any overheating.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NeKr0MAtiK:
So what's the deal with this galnet ICS for G2x "Galnet ICS 2.11.26". Screenshots show android version 4.0.1. Is it legit? Not quite understanding why everyone's not all over this thing if it is, which leads me to ask this question to begin with since there's not very much info on it (that I could find).

Here is the actual page;

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13939-rom-miui-port-miuius-galnet-miuiandroid-updated-01212012/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] squallz506:
thanks, i know what ill be flashing tonight.

Added- flashed and confirmed, it is real ICS. tastes so good. im moving from the cm7 nigtlies so miui takes some getting used to, but ICS is amazing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
So it really is the real deal? Think I should switch from CM7 nightlies too for it?

This is exciting.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] squallz506:
well im running the stock galnetmiui, and it seems stable enough. i cant believe ICS has been available all this time. im gonna try to slip faux123's kernal in now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NeKr0MAtiK:
If this is it how come CM and others aren't using it to get their cameras working?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] squallz506:
galnet is just a framework merge to ICS it doesnt have the ICS APK's, yet that is. im guessing thats why cm team hasnt used the code, cm team is probably using the ics camera APK.

also faux123's ds kernal v 048 is working fine so far.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
It doesn't have much of anything from ics except a couple of things it just just has 4.0.3 in the build prop, you can do that with 2.2 builds. I don't even think it has the basics from ics in it. It is not worth the flash IMO. It is a basic miui build with some tiny modifications that are not noticeable again IMO
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Yup I agree with mt3g.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tidewaterns:
Is says that it is 4.0.1 but it is very stable. I have been running it for about a week with Morfics The Destroyer 1.6ghz kernel and it is awesome. Very stable and fast. I have not had any reboots or SOD. Wifi calling works perfect as well. You will not be disappointed if you flash this rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Ah so it doesn't really have any of the optimizations and improvements of ICS? Just the little bits of it here and there?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
From what I gathered while on it that was when it first came out, it is a flash over zip you have to install latest miui and them the ics layover (kinda like a theme for 2.3.3) not really though lol. I didn't even notice anything different at all.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NeKr0MAtiK:
So general consensus is no this is not 4.0.1, it's just MIUI with a BS version number.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
Weather it is or isn't I don't know. But you can not go by a Screenshot of the Android Version. That can be changed in the build.prop.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Not ICS... simply has some pieces stolen...

By that logic, Tsugi has "Some ICS Code" in it... as in, I used some of the images out of ICS in the theme, as well as a little xml and the screen animations. Doesn't make it ICS.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sunster:
Yep, exactly what mt3g said. Details at this link: http://galnetmiui.co.uk/landing/ics-change-log/

Many folks just don't know about it here because Galnet builds are banned at XDA
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NeKr0MAtiK:
Well intrigue got the better of me and I decided to flash it , needless to say I was very disappointed. Thanks for the input guys. I'm sure when/if it happens I'll be one of the last to know anyway lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
Why are they banned?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NeKr0MAtiK:
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say because they falsify information in their roms most likely. Callin this 4.0.1 is completely inaccurate. Just because it has a couple of "ICS features".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
If I remember right it is just the fact the galnet asked if there versions would not be put on XDA
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zeth006:
So in other words, the latest build the dev team has put out is just an amalgamation that's only partially ICS with the rest of it being part and parcel Gingerbread, huh?

Really looking forward to seeing hardware acceleration. I couldn't tell ya whether it'll really be the next thing since sliced bread.

Any word on whether this might allow us to run games more smoothly? I think I read somewhere that it's also a matter of developers writing code into their games that make better use of Nvidia's GPU? With the Tegra 2 being a CPU that's bound to age in 2012, I have to doubt that ICS will help us in games.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] running_penguin:
That build is actually a port from the o2x, or whatever the international version of this phone is. I don't think that galnet actually created that rom, it was a guy on their forums
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Smallsmx3:
I was running it yesterday and I'm pretty sure it still said 2.3.7. Either way no one has ICS running on a g2x unless there devs or testers.... cm7 has some tweaks from 4.0 and there not calling in cm ICS garnet stone....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
There isn't HW acceleration in the roms yet.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iNsAnEmOd:
This is by far the best blur camera. The speed rivals the RAZR. Perfect quality. This is a system app so naturally you have backup current cam or just put a copy of it somewhere you'll remember.

Correct the permissions and your good to go.

Here it is

Bionic

Eclipse 2.1 Rom on. 901

Titanium-X Tpax
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Adizero1:
Okay well I tried that out and and am in a bit of a hole now. I don't have a camera app.

By relative terms, I'm a noob, so tell me what I did wrong. I renamed the BlurCamera.apk in system/app/ to BlurCamera.apk1 (and left the odex file alone) and moved the file you linked to that location as well. The permissions for the file were rw-r--r--. So I go to the app tray; no Camera app. I restarted my phone; no Camera app. I click on the BlurCamera app (the same one you linked us) and attempted to 'Install' it, resulting in 'Application not installed".

So at that point, I just wanted to undo everything so that I can have a functional camera again. I deleted the file you gave and renamed the original back to BlurCamera.apk. (If it's of any relevance, the permissions for that file are also rw-r--r--). No camera app in app tray and still nothing after a restart.

WHAT DO I DO?:confused:

---------- Post added at 06:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------

Never mind. Took a couple power cycles.

Thankfully, original Camera app is showing up in the tray. But the one you linked didn't work for me.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] codygs83:
thank you for the apk, however says install unsuccessful.

I'm using eclipse 2.0.

Thank you for the effort though, I had been looking for a better camera apk because it just seems like the stock one doesn't quite cut it. After my old htc evo shift and looking at iphone camera pics the motorola just isn't anywhere close as far as quality.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Skidoo03:
So I am a noob to doing this and I'm sorry if this is a dumb question or anything but how exactly do you do this? Thanks in advance.

Sent from my BA Bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iNsAnEmOd:
Ok guys

First off have root access

Using root explorer go into system/app find your System cam make a copy of it(this is just in case it doesnt work) and put it somewhere you'll find easily.

DELETE THE ORIGINAL

Put the BLURCAM.apk in the same system/app folder

LOOK CLOSELY

You'll see that the PERMISSION aren't correct. CORRECT THEM. Just hold down on the BLURCAM.apk and go to set permission. It should be rw-r--r-- or something(phones bricked working on it) BUT its like this

. .

.

.

THREE CHECKS DOWN THE LEFT SIDE, 1 CHECK IN THE TOP MIDDLE

Then Reboot and enjoi

PS: If your cam disappears its probably your rom. Just do the same thing BUT WITH YOUR SYSTEM CAM

Then Reboot and enjoi

lol

[Motorola Droid Bionic] iNsAnEmOd:
Sorry man just got on stock to see whats wrong. Apparently this will NOT work on an odexed rom. Just flash some deodexed rom it'll work fine. Try Eclipse.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] floot_roops:
Possibly a dumb question, but what exactly is this from?

Is this a blurcamera apk from a different device, different firmware version, etc?

I recently rooted my wife's bionic for her (updated to 901, running Eclipse), but she hasn't loved the camera on the phone in general, so I'd love to toy with different applications (system or otherwise) to see how much is hardware and how much the native app.

Just trying to find out a little more about the apk in this post.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iNsAnEmOd:
Its the cam from the 5.8.894 update. In my opinion its the best Blurcam. There are just tad differences between .901 and this. I personally like the look. But it has better quality than the .901 cam, takes pictures faster, all that good stuff
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Adizero1:
Alright, thanks man.

And this is by far the best camera app out there. I've tried many and this one is super quick, no hesitation when taking a pic and will also work in conjunction with an aosp gallery, although i did rename the app to camera.apk from blurcamera.apk.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TerrorTodd:
In my opinion the best camera app is the Camera ICS. I liked it so much I bought the app Camera ICS+. Very fast and great pics!!

Just go to the Play Market and search for it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] codygs83:
isn't that the same camera that's on the ics roms?

Saw THIS article in the XDA portal. I thought it would be in everybody's best interest to check it out. Basically is that the exemption that allows us to legally Root, modify, Hack, or whatever ours phones is going to be Expire SOON. If we don't act it could quite possibly become illegal :mad:to Root your own phone. So guys I really think you should check the links out. I believe the deadline is Feb. 10th.

Oh geez, first sopa and now this bs. Honestly I don't care anymore. People were unlocking all types of phones (not just smartphones) before all of this even became legal.

Yeah, I remember the G1 days when a lot of people weren't use to rooting phones and the methods were a lot more difficult such as flashing your eng hboot in a crapy recovery. The brick risk was a lot higher then it is now and easier for people to turn their phones into a paperweight lol. Now days it seems a lot easier to root and if you have some issues to just unroot everything back to stock and your still covered in your T.O.S. :)
