great recovery :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] ajay.d96:
looking forward for comment of devs.. so renaming this thread to "DEVS MUST SEE APP-RECOVERY MODE TOUCHSCREEN (MOST ADVANCED)!!"
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] hillbeast:
Now that I am in full time employment, I won't have as much time for development, but I will now have money and I plan on buying a Galaxy S for cheap and then my Galaxy 3 can be used entirely for development. I will be able to do more dangerous modding on it then, such as adding TTY console (unless someone is still willing to send me a Galaxy 3).
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] ahsanaimad:
@OP - By the way CWM Touch Recovery is in works, he will release the source soon ( maybe released) so why we need this? I think CWM will be better anyday..

woah man.. :P
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] jayantbh:
TOUCH RC? Ingenious Idea!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] ajay.d96:
thanks for the quick reply.. i was just waiting for you to say a word.. hope someone sends you a g3 dev board ;)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] ahsanaimad:
The Whole World is alive on HOPE! :P So chill..

And of CWM Touch Recovery being open source, I am sure koush will push the sources as soon as he is all done with major development, its still in beta.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
I'm a big fan of Miui's note app and voice recorder app, they have stunning UI's which is not available for any other app in the market.

What would be the easiest way to port these?

Putting them in system/app with correct permissions doesn't seem to be the fix here :P

edit: for anyone looking for some other apps from MIUI someone has ported a few, which I don't need, but may benefit others. I haven't tested them

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1425553
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
OK, putting them in the system/app directory with the appropriate permissions should work... Unless they just aren't compatible with ICS Passion... I don't know... But try these methods:

1.) Download the attached .apk's and put them on your phone

2.) Open Root Explorer and hit the "Mount R/W" button. It should say "Mounted as r/w" to the right of the button

3.) Using Root Explorer to push the .apk's to system/app

4.) Make sure that the permissions look like this:

5.) Click Ok

6.) Reboot device

7.) Test the apps

1.) Download the attached .apk's and put them on your phone

2.) Just try to install them as is

But just to see, you should go download those ported apps you put a link to and see if they work for you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Tried first method, didn't work.

Will download the ported apps later on and then try them.

thanks for trying to help

[Thunderbolt Accessories] SamOliver:
I just got my phone back from getting Liquipel put on it, this stuff is awesome, you can completely submerge your phone in water and it will come out fine. Just wanted other people to be made aware of this, I know not many people have heard of it.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] OffcerClancy:
What if you need to remove the cover to, say, access the battery? Is the whole process then comprised?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] brandogg:
No. Watch the videos on their site, the Thunderbolt is featured and they take the battery cover off. Crazy.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] poeskippds:
yea i see that its featured, but why isn't on their list of approved devices?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] WhiteReign:
Saw The video this looks cool if you have a problem with dropping phones in the toilet or lake lol..
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 1980s.Best23:
Thats awesome! What's the catch though? Anything?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] poeskippds:
I contacted liquipel. They said that liquipel is not available yet for the Tbolt.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] SamOliver:
Yea, I saw that they took it off their list of approved devices, I don't know if I should feel lucky that I got mine done before they took it off the list or weary that they found out something about the Thunderbolt that they didn't know before... like it damages something on the phone or doesn't work as well as on other phones.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Nitrox1995:
I was checked the video but... Thath htc is stock?? Or have a cover or something like that?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] jinxerfelix:
I emailed customer support about it, they will be adding the Thunderbolt back to the supported devices list "soon".

Hey, so just like the title says are you stable at 1.6ghz do a little test run quadrent on your phone and than if it passes your probably good but also try 10mins of angry birds just to make sure ;) i on the other hands cannot run quadrent at 1.6ghz :mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] K Rich:
No problems here, but every CPU is different. I've seen some people use 1.5ghz instead
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Andrew149:
yep thats right every cpu is different but how do you overclock to 1.5ghz instead?

I'm stable at 1.5 (1350mV), though I don't run it at that daily. It was covered in steve's init thread in development. Look in the last few pages.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Sardo Numspa:
i run antutu all the time at 1.6 with no problems. guess i got lucky
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Andrew149:
Ok just gave my 1600mhz 50mv more and its stable now so i can finally overclock a little higher when needed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tdamocles:
Stable only to 1544mhz@1400mv here. Locks up after that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SoCaliTrojan:
Mine overclocks to 1.6 with no issues at all. I ran it like that for weeks until I decided that I want longer battery life. The stock speed is still fast, and underclocking still results in acceptable responsiveness.

I use Tasker to overclock my phone when playing certain intensive games. Otherwise, my phone is usually underclocked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jjesusfreak01:
Mine's never crashed at 1.6, but I don't really stress test it there besides with benchmarks.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] willbs94:
I have never had any issues at 1.6 and that is on just about every rom. I dont ever keep it at that cuz i dont enjoy sucking my battery but it is definitely fun to show off to others, HAHA! Also I have a captivate and the highest it would let me overclock it was 1.7 and that is ridiculous but it was unstable. lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phonepsycho:
I've found a way to make almost every setting I have tried relatively stable. You just have to keep tweaking. It's not as simple as getting an overclock app and maxing. Here are some screen shots I took of a recent bench. This is only at 1632. I customized a I9100 ICS rom to be fully functional on my I777 and I'm scoring higher just above 1600 than I was closer to 1700. I was ranked 720 but those transformer primes! I wish it was only mobile phones on the chart! lol:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kamots:
Mine is stable at 1.6.......but im like everyone else. Don't like watching my battery drop like the ball at times square on new years eve lol .mine seems pretty happy at 1.4 with some under volting
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nh5:
Mine is stable at 1600mhz only with Entropy's DD at 1550mv. Siyah limits max voltage to 1500mv so normally I get a few minutes or so of 1.6 and then a lock up.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Arich Manas:
I thought that I would run the benchmark to help you, and I got a rating of 3989. I have only recently rooted my phone, so I have yet to delve deep into overclocking and such, but I did broaden the range of freqs to a min of 200 MHz and a max of 1.6 GHz. I also performed the benchmark on the "performance" governor. I may not know much about OCing phones, but I do know a fair bit for computers. When you buy a cpu, which "number" you get (the same architecture, but different base clock speeds), you are, in fact, getting the same chip, just tested to be stable at a different frequency. With that in mind, when overclocking a processor, (ignoring the method of OCing (bus speed/multiplier)) one maintains a constant voltage until the cpu becomes unstable and crashes. When this happens, it is normally due to the cpu overheating. One then goes back, increases the voltage, and then again increases the clock speed, until a higher clock simply can not be maintained. As many before me have said, every processor is different. We may all have "the same proccessor", but we most certainly do not have identical processors, with some of us being able to achieve much higher stable clocks than others, just like some computer's cpus can be stable at higher frequencies than others.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gobluewolverines4:
Hey guys, i would really love to start developing apps/etc. but i have little to no knowledge. I know HTML.. obviously very easy, but that is about it. My brother is actually an app write and makes pretty sweet money off of it, so i figured i would like to get started. I was wondering where should i start? I'm guessing i need to know java, but i don't wanna start anything that is not needed. I have a lot of free time on my hands, so let me know whenever you can.

Oh, and btw, my brothers apps are Ring-A-Ding and U.S. Constitution. You should check them out, they are both very cool, especially Ring-A-Ding. RBware is his dev name.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Urool:
You should probably get some book with java basics and then one (bigger :P) book with all the Android stuff.

If you don't like books you might want to look into:

Lars Vogel's Tutorials

What's also very helpful are the developer tutorials at the official dev's page.

However, I'd reccommend books, because they are usually giving you a more detailed view on the backgrounds of how things work and you are not totally just copying the code.

I (for my own) used some german Java book and then "Android 3". However, ICS and stuff is not covered in there. Just some little view at honeycomb... so you might get some newer one.

Has anyone painted their battery door? I've got an extra and I want to paint it white, but I haven't a clue how to do it. I assume sanding since its plastic.
[HTC Rezound] 06stang:
No sanding just use plastidip for temporary yet good looking paint or if you're 100% committed use the plastic bonding paint available at any walmart. No sanding needed and turns out great. Thin even coats with time to dry in between. Post pictures

Anyone got pics of these? I'm considering doing white on mine, also will this interfere with the antenna since it is located in the battery door
[HTC Rezound] emarietta:
No my antenna works fine
[HTC Rezound] 06stang:
The Krylon Fusion holds up very well just gotta be careful not to do coats too fast or it'll goop up and be soft.
[HTC Rezound] drmanhattan:
I recently tried this, there was some chipping on the side, but i think that was because i wasnt able to do evan coats on the side. overall it looks great, especially when paired with a red soft gel case that i picked up from best buy the white accents with the red cover looks bad ass to say the least
[HTC Rezound] 06stang:
Jack seems to like it

I'm to scared to try this. Don't u need those gold looking things on the back door to get reception.

[HTC Sensation] deepakmk:
Hi guys,

My htc fell in water, but I have dried it up. Now when I press the power key, the screen does not turn on. Then, when I press it again to supposedly off the screen, the screen turns on and off in 1second. So I can catch a glimpse of the lockscreen. So I was wondering, does anyone know why this is happening?

Is this a problem I can fix myself or should I bring it to a repair shop?

Any recommendation on a repair shop besides HTC. HTC did not even bother to look at my phone, they just saw the water indicator and said it would be $300-$500, which in fact, I know that it would not be that much.

So if anyone could help me, thanks.

I'll upload a youtube video so you guys can get a better understanding.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBVeprvekgY
[HTC Sensation] cryin:
Had the same accident on my wifes last Nokia, couldnt repair it myself and brought it to a repair shop. They told me to throw it away because the water sensor inside the phone reported the accident audn a repair would be as expensive a an equal ne phone. sorry mate, dont hope too much ...
[HTC Sensation] deepakmk:
I guess I shall just get a new phone, like an evo 3d or something. Thanks anyway :)
[HTC Sensation] sevag00:
Or they can replace the parts that's been damaged. But i'm not sure if the repair costs more than buying a new phone.
[HTC Sensation] androph:
I believes LCD internal circuit detect short and turns of lcd to prevent damage.

LCD may still have water inside or main board may have been damaged.

It is impossible to guess so repair tech must use parts from good phone and swap one by one to bad phone until bad part is found.

Most repair shop will not have ability to do this so they will charge minimum $200 ( average cost for them to buy phone) or they will assume LCD is defective and quote about $150. ( their charge for LCD replacement)

HTC just charges you phone refurb charge ( for customer not their cost)

I recommend sell on eBay for $150 and buy new(used phone) on Craigslist($200-$250).

I assume since you are asking this question you don't do many or any repair...if this is true...I highly suggest you keep it that way to prevent accidental and uneccesary damage

PM me and I can assist with repair/replacement
[HTC Sensation] deepakmk:
I was kinda hoping to fix it, but I guess I should go to HTC and ask them for an exact amount of price needed to fix this phone.

I doubt there's anymore water in the phone cause I have dried it for 3days in rice and even hair dryed it.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
In order to root your Nexus S (from Gingerbread to ICS!) I have made a script that all you need to do is launch with your PC! (credits to saurik for the exploit)

Hope this will help you

All you need to do, is run the script! Then, plug-in your phone (needs to be on with USD ADB DEBUG ON) and done!

You can download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?qhefhtgs20fdtsd

This will root your phone, and then you can afterwards flash ClockworkMod from the market and then reboot into recovery =)

Peace be with you.

[Nexus S Android Development] ivd269:
Nice!

Ran it and it worked. Well, ran it and then had to do a few things to prove that it had worked.

After running the script, you have to install Superuser in Google Play Store (Market). Then, I installed MyBackup Pro (paid version) which does a few more fancy things if it has root access. When I ran MyBackup Pro, it said that I have superuser access.

Sweet!

I ran this on a Nexus S i9023 running ICS 4.0.3.

It looks like root access remained after reboot. Pretty good!
[Nexus S Android Development] monkeybone12:
COOL! Thanks for sharing! The Nexus is en route!
[Nexus S Android Development] flibblesan:
This is an early April Fool right? The Nexus S is completely open and doesn't need exploits to gain root. Unlock the bootloader then you can use fastboot to install a custom recovery image. Simples.
