Hey Sony Tablet S users!

Anybody here that could get the FourSquare applications dumped from their tablet and send it to me by PM? I would like to test if the app works on my Galaxy 10.1 tab.

I saw that people dumped the SYSTEM folder, but the FourSquare app was not in. I guess it is in the DATA folder.

Thanks.
[Sony Tablet S] phil31169:
it was not installed on my tablet s, just a shortcut to the app store to install it from. not really looking to install it as i of course don't have a data plan or 3g, however it did list the app as for the sony tab by name (at the app store) so not sure if it would work for ya
[Sony Tablet S] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Thanks for the reply. Now I understand why I couldn't find it in the system dump.

I don't think the app will run only on a Sony tablet.

Does Anyone know of a file manager that allows the user to make selections without easier?

For instance if I wanted to select pictures to move from one folder to another, and there's 50 total pictures but I Only want to move say 25 of them is there a easier way to select pictures 1 through 25 Without manually selecting all 25 of them?

Thanks in Advance...
[HTC EVO 3D] megabiteg:
I've been a Root Explorer customer for years, never fails me and the dev keeps the app updated. It's also easy use and it performs good on rooted and unrooted devices.

And let's you do everything your asking and much more
[HTC EVO 3D] PMGRANDS:
I use it also, but is there a way to mutiselect without manually selecting one by one? And without selecting All of them too? Almost similar to a desktop computer where you can basically highlight from one spot to another to make selections, without the one my one stuff?
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
When you're in a folder, hit your menu button. one of the settings is multi select.

Also, there are quite a few options under preferences, for view mode, sort order, etc.
[HTC EVO 3D] PMGRANDS:
Correct me if I'm wrong but even with Multiselect I'd still have to then make selections one by one Right? I'm asking if there's a way to maybe select say picture #1 and then scroll to say #30 and select all of those in between without making 30 different selections?
[HTC EVO 3D] megabiteg:
The multi select button will make you choose which files you want to select by tapping each file. After, you are presented with a series of options in the bottom of the app that will let you: copy, cut, delete.... and many more options that are file management related.

You will be able to select as many files (regardless of what type they are) and do as you please with them. You will even have the choice to change the format of the file system (read only to read and write)

Everything you said, is possible with root explorer.

Hello guys,

I have a P1010 with Gingerbread 2.3.6 and have the newest official skypeversion installed. Unfortunately the video-chat still doesn't work. I have found several versions here on the forum but I'm still not sure which one to install. Can someone help me here? Is it safe to uninstall my current skypeversion?

Thx in advance for your help!
[Galaxy Tab General] japester36:
I finally got it working after searching and working out that there are several builds of signedcom.skype.raider_2.1.0.46 floating around and not all of them work! In fact the Advanced Settings section varied wildly between them.

The one that I used with success was Build v11 at www.multiupload.co.uk/6WEIZZGTX7.

In Advanced Settings, I had to set the following:

Force-enable video-calling > ON

Avoid setFPS > ON

Use valid preview surface > ON

Then you will have to tweak Rotation in Advanced Settings>Front Camera (270) to get your face to appear in the correct orientation if using portrait.

I'm sure some other combinations and versions will work too but this is what has worked for me.

Hope it helps
[Galaxy Tab General] cholerix:
Thx for your help mate :). Do you by any chance know if its safe to uninstall skype. With Froyo I had the problem that I couldn't install Skype after I uninstalled it because there was some residual file (which could only be removed by rooting the tab).
[Galaxy Tab General] japester36:
I didn't have any residual file problems and I must have installed 4 or 5 different versions.

Give it a go.
[Galaxy Tab General] cholerix:
Where can I find Advanced Settings? The app seems to have vanished from the Market Place.
[Galaxy Tab General] japester36:
You need to uninstall the Market version of Skype and download the one I linked to above.

Next install this version and sign in.

Now you can use the Menu button and you'll see Advanced settings as one of the menu items.

You don't need anything from the Market.
[Galaxy Tab General] cholerix:
Its works! Thank you so much! Wouldn't have thought it would finally work ^_^.
[Galaxy Tab General] jamesrward:
Sadly with multiupload down and the multiple builds of signedcom.skype.raider_2.1.0.46 out there as you mentioned I am having trouble tracking down the exact build you used. Does anyone have a working link for the version japester36 is talking about? Would love to get this working.
[Galaxy Tab General] japester36:
I've uploaded signedcom.skype.raider_2.1.0.46 Build 11 to my Dropbox, you can get it from here.

[XPERIA X8 General] tohno:
hi all

as you know my battery is kinda horrible nowadays , and i did not not charge my battery for 8 hours when i 1st got it ...is it a factor of my battery drain? it's been like this for a week now ...( i bought it a week now ) my battery only last about 4hours ...
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
Most likely the battery is damaged, take it back from where you bought it and tell them your problem. Make sure you have STOCK software or else they won't repair it for you.

Only return it for repairs if you have warranty, if not, i suggest you to buy another battery.

Damaged batteries may damage the phone :(.
[XPERIA X8 General] B.Jay:
I never really cared about the "let the device charge for ## hours before operating" - and I never had any issues with battery life.

Well ... ok ... the only problem I ever had was that the battery of my Eee PC 900 died after just ~1.5 years (Windows showing "Your battery needs to be replaced") but that's another story entirely.

It may have an impact on the battery on the LONG run, but the problem you observe with your battery have another root cause.

Like I already wrote in the thread of yours, and others also recommended ...

Cause most likely is ...

- Battery dead (or you got a faulty battery back after the repair)

- Loading circuitry of the motherboard (which got replaced) malfunctioning

- Possible problem in the way you charge the phone (already wrote to you in a PM how to check and rule that out)

Take my suggestions I PM'd to you, maybe report back how it worked out, and if there was no resolve flash back to the Walkman ROM and send that damn phone off to SE.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Do you mean GT-I9100G? If so, what did you actually flash in Odin? Generally to get back to a working phone, you need to go back to download mode (vol down+home+power) and flash a kernel/whole ROM which is correct for your device.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
And you posted this twice why exactly ?

It's your lucky day. This thread contains some insecure kernels you can use to root a I9100G. Don't ask me which one to use, I have no idea as I have a I9100T.

I've given you a starting point, time for you to begin learning/reading.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dilly Dally:
yes its GT-I9100G? i flashed it with CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KI3-v4.1-CWM4.tar

how do i flash a kernel? and how do i know which is correct for my device while it cant open?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
For starters, you've flashed an I9100 kernel on your I9100G. You've been given instructions on what to do already (entering download mode and flashing a kernel/ROM for the correct device, since you said the device turns on).

If you can't figure that out, take it back. You shouldn't be blindly flashing stuff on your phone.

Very sorry if this is a stupid question.

My Dad has a SGS2. I rooted it for him, and installed SpeedMod Kernel for him (way back in October)

He is currently running 2.3.4.

The ICS OTA / Kies or whatever, is coming soon.

Will he still be able to upgrade his phone whilst rooted?

Will the update perform successfully?

Will he lose data?

I'm asking because on other devices (HTC), if you perform a official update when you are rooted, it results in a bricked phone!

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suarez7:
Not sure myself to be honest but the best thing to do is wait till you read from here that the official roms have been released through KIES. Then unroot your dad's phone and then feel free to upgrade then once you are unrooted and back to official stock firmware.:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
If you're still running stock firmware, you should still be able to get Kies upgrades. Obviously if you upgrade via Kies your phone will be unrooted as a stock kernel will overwrite your existing kernel.

If you find you are unable to get Kies updates, you will have to flash stock firmware back on to the phone as suggested by my learned colleague, Mr Suarez, before you can upgrade via Kies.

Any upgrade via Kies shouldn't result in loss of data unless you get a message before you begin the process that says you will lose data. Tho obviously backing up anything/everything important before upgrading is obviously recommended.

I see you're looking for ironclad guarantees about a couple of things, and frankly, when you start running non-stock firmware on your phone you should expect these to go out the window, i.e there aren't any (and even when you are running stock nothing is absolutely guaranteed).

Better not to tempt fate IMHO.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
Many thanks for the replies fellas!

I appreciate it :)

Thanks for tips!

Yeah, I guess I'll do a NANDroid backup too...

TBH, I don't think my Dad is too bothered about being rooted on ICS, so it doesn't matter if he loses root.

On Gingerbread now, he doesn't use many root apps, apart from SetCPU and adfree.

But thanks for the helpful advice guys!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
OK, sorry for the bump.

My Dad is still running the same setup 2.3.4 & SpeedMod kernel. The kies isn't detecting the phone...

But today he got the OTA notification to update ICS directly on his phone.

Is it safe to do it? So the update will override the SpeedMod kernel, but the phone will still boot and work fine? Not bothered about losing root - just want to know the upgrade will be successful.

Anyone can clarify please? :D I've done a NAND back up to be safe. the worse for worse - do i just restore the backup?

P.S - I have CWM on it - will that effect it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
Can't say, but should be ok, worst case you cab flash back using Odin if something happens.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mada360:
Didn't work for me.

I had flashed the leaked release of ICS onto my phone and so when the official release came out I went straight to the OTA update (I'm on O2 in the UK) And the there was no available update (However my Dad also has the S2 and it wasn't there for him either).

So I tried the kies software to only find it gave me a message saying my phone wasn't supported/update not available for phone. It did however allow my dads stock firmware to be.

Hope that helps and you might have better luck but it will remove any root you have because I'm pretty sure it also updates the Kernel.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
Thanks a lot guys! I used ODIN to flash the latest ICS version - all good now! He is unrooted, but still had CWM, so can he still receive future OTA's and make NANDroids?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
You need root in order for CWM to work and for you to make a backup. Here is my guide to rooting your phone again. Very simple: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1625184

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olyloh6696:
Oh, ok, So now he has stock recovery on his phone after flashing the new update? (I haven't checked the recovery yet!) It had CWM before on 2.3.4
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Yes, when you update your phone you would have lost root and CWM. Just use the guide I posted above to regain root and CWM so your dad that can make his NANDroid backups.

Any help would be appreciated.

Install Virtuous Quattro ROM.

It gives you the option to remove the battery icon.
[HTC Sensation] jonyid:
Cheera for the advice mate but im not into rooting and installing roms etc
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Then you should learn to like the battery icon. The battery icon is part of the rom itself. It can be changed or removed, but the Rom itself has to be modified to do it, which cannot be done without root access or a custom rom entirely.

[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
I had an Arc for 1 month, I really liked it but I couldn't live without a variety of custom roms :o

I am now on Sensation and thinking about the Xperia S (sorry no proper section yet),this upcoming phone is totally awesome in both look and features, BUT I am afraid XDA devs will not be interested again...

Though I think the only way to make it sexy for them is that:

-Sony send a free device(s) to known devs team like CM,Virtuous,MIUI,Modaco...

If you have other ideas then throw them here ;)
[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
Sony gave Arc and Arc S to CM devs, so don't complain :D

Developement is harder on SE devices than on for example on HTC decices from what I've heard - that's the reason why we don't have that much devs
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
Sony Ericsson always used quite a lot of special hardware, especially when it comes to camera sensors. It's always been a challenge for developers to get those to work on custom roms.

The problem in 2011 is that there was too much time between the hardware release and the availability of certain sources and the bootloader unlock.

If they make sure the Xperia S can be unlocked right away and the sources are available fast then we might get a lot of development going on.

Then again, Sony doesn't care that much, the vast majority of users doesn't even root, so they focus mainly on the stock ROMs. And they are the best of all stock ROMs. By far. And the default software on the 2012 looks to be extremely good and complete.
[Xperia Arc General] fajarep:
I came from Optimus 2X as kernel developer, I hope I can contribute something once xperia S available, as long, Sony gives developer access to tweak the phone, like kernel source code, unlocked bootloader as default and offcourse new OS update...
[Xperia Arc General] dp94:
Imo, they totally do.

You could check this e.g. ;)
[Xperia Arc General] ShyamSasi:
IMO SE has tried all hard to support XDA in terms of development let's hope under Sony's management they do the same.

[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
It's very hard to turn a hTC dev into a Sony one,though a samsung one is easy because whatever galaxy series are good they lack the higher grade materials used by Sony,specially Xperia S which look like a portable Bravia tv :D

The X10 gave a bad taste to xda devs, the Arc was not well liked too because it wasn't dual core,but now the xperia S with it's very good CPU,12mp camera and HD screen should be perfect!

They just have to promote it better in advertisements inside xda and other forums adv spaces,the Google Nexus Prime is very well advertised for exemple,there is a remarquable ''push'' marketing
[Xperia Arc General] dp94:
I think, they really do.

Afaik there are already two XDA members from Sony.

And btw, SE/Sony was the first manufacturer, who gave the community a official way to unlock the BL of devices (now HTC does the same).

Once they released camera libs to FXP team.

They even released a ICS alpha for XDA devs.

I haven't seen another manufacturer doing something like that.

(correct me if I'm wrong at some point)
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
So why the custom roms on Arc are so poor?

I was expecting 10x more specially that it was unlocked way before Sensation (I was here).

I hope sgs3 will not flame devs again and forget about xperia S
[Xperia Arc General] ShyamSasi:
I think it's because most of the developers was behind Dual core devices like HTC Sensation, Samsung etc. but we are making progress we have a great team of dedicated developers like FreeXperia Team. Now our device is under official CM chart. We have most popular custom ROMs like MIUI, CM and few stock based ROM. Lot of the other custom ROM's I have seen are most based on CM so doesn't make much difference. The exceptions are Oxygen, SuperOSR etc. Those developers are active with Nexus devices.

Unlike other devices Sony is little hard to develop due to heavy customization and hardware. Compared to other manufactures Sony has only few customers. HTC users stay with HTC, Samsung users stays with Samsung devices and upgrade to newer Samsung model but they hardly change from HTC to Samsung etc. So it will take time. I'm guessing by Xperia S release we might see few more developers because now we have more advance hardware people might consider upgrading to Sony. But I'm happy with the development what we have now.
[Xperia Arc General] DooMLoRD:
i already love the Xperia S :)

will surely be buying it....

though i dont mind if the community donates a Xperia ION/Xperia S ;)

i dont think no. of custom ROMs is really something to worry about...

we dont need half baked ROMs which are all basically stock ROMs just with some apps removed/added and few "cosmetic" changes... i have seen may communities which have TONS of roms which are hardly 2% different from stock ROM... thats not going to help... just a few well supported and developed ROMs is all that is needed... oh and dont forget powerful kernels :) as however good a ROM is it cant fully use the power of the device unless u have excellent kernels...

as for general developer interest... HTC & Samsung devices are most loved by devs because of the open nature of the vendors... also both of these vendors have a HUGE user base... some developers prefer to work only on devices which are widely used...
[Xperia Arc General] sahibunlimited:
Samsung took the first move in the developer interest

BTW Bootloader are factory unlocked in all devices(Not for galaxy nexus,u have to use a tool :D)

They donated many devices to devs

And they devs are still their and working on CM9...
