What is the most disgusting noise that exists? Exactly, the dentist's drill! Everyone knows it, everyone hates it.

The free app "Dental Drill" brings exactly that sound on your Android phone.

With this fun app you can annoy your friends! Drive your girlfriend mad! The app can also be used to remind your children what happens if they are not cleaning their teeth! Simply start the app and switch on the drill.

Sure you can find the dentist drill noise on other Soundboards. But only with the real drill-optics you get the dentist-deterrent fealing!

Have fun with it ...

You can download it from the Android Market.

Can you explain why this gadget asks for permission to PHONE CALLS???
[Android Apps and Games] AndyFox2011:
All apps ask for that, its so they can recognise when you are getting a phone call etc....
[Android Apps and Games] bandler:
In this special case of "Dental Drill" the PHONE CALLS permission is needed for the ad component used to show ads.

[General Questions and Answers] umirin:
the ROM manager from android market doesn't have my phone listed for the clockword mod recovery. So I can't do the backup and restore or flash or whatever.

This is my first time rooting so I want to make sure everything is backed up. Can't do it without this program.

I know the version I need because others with LG Optimus 3D also can't get there phone with the current ROM manager.

I found it on google but it's from mediafire. It's also the premium version so that's stealing from the author. It could have viruses.

Is there a legit site where I can get old versions?
[General Questions and Answers] Thefanatics:
No need to have ROM Manager to backup or restore the phone.

If you have the recovery installed, just into it. Next go to backup/restore

Then choose backup.
[General Questions and Answers] umirin:
no that's what I am saying. I can't install the recovery because my phone is not listed.

There is an old version of ROM manager with my phone listed, but it's an illegal premium version from mediafire.

I don't know if it's safe.

Recovery Manager

Hey,

If you found an old one, could you let me know where from? I need to flash recovery on an HTC Hero.. alternatively, if you didn't: have you tried the Recovery Manager app on the market? It's the one with the two gear icons, com.simran.recmanager .. sorry, i'm a noob so i can't post externa links. It might support your phone.

Hi, how is this charger ?.. How long it takes to charge the Incredible S and what is it's standby time ??

Is it really worth the price ?
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
i dont use it as my daily driver.. just in case of emergency.. but it charges pretty fast and it charges till 40-50%... right now its kept in some corner... but i charge it through usb rarely use solar...
[HTC Incredible S] veitograf:
all the solar chargers i found so far only charge with an output of 80mAh, so once the battery pack is empty its actually useless.

i think its better to buy a batterypack without the solar charger because it wont be much help.
[HTC Incredible S] p008:
I think solar charger cannot give enough voltage for phone. I think it just an option to make your phone battery not drain out.
[HTC Incredible S] wpra3:
just buy one of those powerbanks, relatively cheap and charge as fast as a wall adapter.
[HTC Incredible S] zhangyu625:
i dont think the solar charger is necessery for common user
[HTC Incredible S] compro01:
Voltage isn't the issue. You'd just use a boost converter to bump it up to 5V. Every battery pack like the powerbank and similar includes such a circuit, as they either use a 3.7V li-ion (or li-poly, or similar) or a pair of alkalines (1.5Vx2).

The issue is getting enough current to charge something meaningfully.
[EVO 4G General] LyndenP:
Ok. My flame suit is on. I'm starting a job with VZW. I'm keeping my Sprint line also, as it is an unlimited everything family plan and dirt cheap for me. I'm going to get an iPhone for my VZW line so I can be using and therefore able to speak about both operating systems. I don't need much mobile data with my VZW plan so I'm going with the lowest amount 2GB. In the event I need a little extra boost on my iPhone I am wondering if it is possible or if any one has tethered an iPhone to their Evo? I don't see why it wouldn't work but it is late and I'm tired.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lviv73:
I just moved here from Epic 4g forum,and I like that these threads are kept clean unlike old Epic forum.

I would like to suggest one thing though.I had to look through tons of pages to find out which modem/kernel/official rom update is the latest.

I ended up rooting through Odin EL29 rom and then double rooting in order to install cwm.And I still don't know which modem is the latest.

Plus on regular Epic it was better/recommended to update to latest official build rom before rooting and installing cwm,which I found out on here when installing cwm that cwm for older builds(EL29/26) was different from other cwm's.

It would be great if there was new thread in development section that stated which /modem/update/kernel was the latest,how to flash cwm if you already rooted and if I should update to latest update leak/kernel before flashing certain rom or cwm.

Just a suggestion for noobs or people that just got here,thanx.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flight01:
Don't mean to be a a#$ but if you just looked you would be able to answer what questions you have or posed. Also their is a sticky in the development section its the E4GT wiki and it shows everything release dates for modems and links and anything else you may need. Its pretty up to date.

I was thinking the same thing lol. The modem threads in development are in order from old to new, and it even says so.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellydark:
Alright I was rooting my tablet, i forgot to check which version my tablet was so i rooted with the wrong root file..

When i boot up, i get passed everything to the main screen but the actual system is all messed up, i cant see a thing. My friend hard reset it threw the options you can get to threw holding power and down volume.

I was told i need to put the stock 3.1 file back on, problem with this is, my SD card on my tablet isn't formatted, so it's not showing up on my laptop as a storage device.

I can access both menus threw power + sound down, but other than that, that's all i can do atm.

Also when i choose anything from the SD card in the recover options, i just get /sdcard/ cannot be found or something.

I have the default boot, i just need to get the default OS on it...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandobean:
Hi XDa folk,

Got a problem with my new Samsung galaxy S2 that's stumping (and infuriating me). It's tricky to Google a solution for.

ISSUE: Several times a day, for several minutes at a time, I'm unable or send or revive text messages. During this ~5 min window I am also unable to make or receive calls. Outgoing texts will time out and outgoing call just stay at "dialing" and then time out. The issue resolves itself after a few minutes.

NOTES:

• This started when I switched to an iPhone on Sprint from my Samsung Epic 4g on Sprint. Thinking it was the iPhone issue, I switched to a Galaxy SII... which does the exact same thing.

• I have signal bars the whole time

• my girlfriend, who shares the cell plan and my house never has this issue (she has an Evolution 4g)

• tried updating the PRL, profile and even had Sprint reset my MSID#.

• happened on stock EK02 ROM, and rooted EL29 roms.

I am SO stumped. The fact that it happens on two phones implies a carrier issue... but I'd be delighted if any of you geniuses have ideas as to what's causing this?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cttttt:
If you're still on stock firmware and ought to have good signal (outside, within range of a cell tower) your problems are likely your provider's. Why not call them up? You may be able to get some swag (or a reduced bill) if you complain loudly enough.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] horndroid:
I have B70KAS179***. I think it has SBK1 because the number after KAS is 1.

Is there a way for me to verify this on Windows?

All the sbk detect tools I've found are either for Mac or Linux.

Is there a windows version and do I just sux at googling?

Assuming that my B70 is sbk1, which method would provide "cleaner" root

1. Nachoroot

2. Use the 8.6.6.19 downgrade fix and run Razorclaw?

After I have it rooted, should I use NVflash or CWM to install a custom ROM?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilstevie:
if it is SBKv1, best way is to go straight to the custom rom with nvflash, the only way for you to find out is to give it a go
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
It makes no differences in the end. root = root :)

Why going to a TF101

G

kernel if you can use just nachoroot.

Don't know why you want to verify only from windows and not unix.

It is easy.

I used Ubuntu 11.10 desktop for this. Drivers are included.

Just download, put it on a cd. Boot your pc with this (don't install Ubuntu but use it as a live cd).

Browse to this thread in Ubuntu and download sbcheck, untar and run it.

And of course put your tablet in APX mode.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] horndroid:
Well, it turned out to be simple as hell.

I just put my TF101 in APX mode and used Revolver NVFlash version and now my tablet is awesome.

I was just confused by all these different rooting methods.

What's the point of using Razorclaw/Nachoroot, installing CWM, and then installing custom ROM when I can do the entire process in one step using NVFlash?

I did this straight from my B70 with 8.6.5.21 firmware. Didn't have to downgrade, didn't have to do anything. Just connect tab in APX mode and ran NVFlash.

Oh ya I run the ROM myself. I always have a nandroid of it ony sdcard.. :D its honestly one of the best ROMs out there. Love how 99.9% of the ROM is themed the missing .1% goes to misc. Apps SS doesnt use :p And I love blue as well! But Some days I just feel like seeing something new you know? If only SS could make his ROM but with a .zip that would change the ROMs color. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Capp5050:
Use StrongSteve's ROM for its speed and stability. If you'd like to make customizations, you can do it in a variety of ways, including apps like Beautiful Widgets, launchers like GoLauncher, etc.

Notwithstanding, there are some items that you may wish to change that you simply cannot, so if customization is super-important to you, then you should probably try one of the de-odexed ROMs
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] harley1rocker:

i agree,strongsteves rom is great. ive tried every rom out there and got force close this and unexpected that...this rom not only looks great but its stable as all get out. and yes,go launcher is the way to go.imo.....i do like the blu kuban though...got a forced close tho... great rom tho

Galaxy Ace Android Kitchen
1.- Download the kitchen from here.
2.- Copy system.rfs and CF-Root-S5830's boot.img (for ext4 filesystem support) to the kitchen's original_update folder, rename system.rfs to system.img.
3.- Open up a terminal window, change to the folder containing the kitchen.
4.- Start up the kitchen by typing: ./menu

I want to start creating a rom using the manual Ketut, but I have a doubt over 3, indicates that you have to open a terminal window, but refers to the normal window of win7 or cygwin? win7 on the window did not recognize the command ./menu, which is not a valid file and cygwin does not allow me to enter the kitchen folder, and if anyone can guide me what are the right steps in this option were very grateful thank you!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] codeknight11:
You need to use cygwin and change to the kitchen folder. For ex - if your kitchen folder is in F:/ drive, then you need to give this command

cd F:/Kitchen

And then type ./menu

Does anyone have an opinion on this? I have been using TWRP since rooting my Amaze, but have used CWM on previous devices. I do like the fact that xboarder got TWRP 2.0 (Touch) working and it's pretty sweet, but I'm wondering if I should maybe be using CWM if not just for the sake of being able to use ROM Manager... Any input would be great!

[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
Cwr only because I an very familiar with it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eliasadrian:
I prefer twrp, it's easier and quicker and the touch is awesome. But, I use an app called appextractor that it's amazing at reading your backups to restore data and apps, and it only works with cwm. If it wasn't for that app I'd use twrp.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
I use TWRP now. I used to be a die hard fan of CWM until the app stopped working with the recovery. TWRP has much better compression which saves a lot of space, doesn't require md5 verification for restoring (which makes it a little faster), touch interface is very nice and you can even theme it!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Fahnix:
I've been a cwm user as well but by some stroke of luck came across twrp before I found the correct cwm recovery. I was REALLY digging the psychedelic color theme on the non touch, but the touch is wayyyyy more convenient. Kinda drab, but awesome nonetheless.

Thanks for the input! BTW, what ROM have you tried energyRom yet?

energy rom has started to change my mind about sense!!! :), my only beef with sense is the main dock (i prefer a 5 button dock), and also the inability to re-size widgets...I think all this is getting addressed in sense 3.5...atleast the dock I know for sure, and ICS naively supports widget resizing so hopefully even if sense widgets can't be re-sized the other widgets would be...

I disliked sense too when I had mt4g because of how big the ROMs were (350 MB compared to CM's 98 MB) although CoreDroid was pretty sweet. But EnergyRom is brilliant with it's stability, battery life, and theme by NRG. Also Apaquette420 has a sweet theme for it that looks amazing.

Not to be a spokesperson here, but this ROM has me sold on Sense
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
I guess since I helped clutter, I better at least answer the question. I use cwm, but am now interested in TWRP. I used 4EXT on my mt4g, and twrp sounds similar. I may try it out tonight

Hey everyone,

I have been playing around with the ZEUS Rom and had a couple of questions:

Is there any way to turn on the ability to make icons move when one is moved on top of it? (ala iPhone)

Is there any way to create folders?

Is there any way to turn off the digital menu buttons? (Kind of replicas of the hardware ones on my phone, with one that goes back, one that looks at the windows, and one that shows running apps).

Is there an easy way to obtain more fonts / themes for this rom?

And finally a weird one: Is there a compendium of safe voltages to undervolt the phone to? (I want to OC it / undervolt it - I'm using Antutu)

Many thanks and sorry if these questions have been asked before... I couldn't find a clear answer and I am still not able to PM people :D

[Samsung Infuse 4G] bignate78:
1. Icons can't be placed on top of each other but can overlap.

2. To create folders and such you have to find a launcher that will allow you to do so.

3. There are quite a few themes floating around. Look in the themes and apps section in Experiments thread.

4. Fonts can also be found in market.

5. To OC/UV you have a kernel that does so such as the one that come with the rom. Use voltage control to adjust. Each phone is different to each setting. I personally OC to 1600, remove 800 and -75 across the board.

Big Dogg Infuse I997 ZeusB5 ICS!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] EndemicTruth:
Thanks for the fast reply... just a follow-up then I guess:

For question 1... there is no way to shift icons around by moving one on top of the other? It's such a pain to have to move 'em around and to different screens individually as opposed to shuffling them.

For question 2... How do I find what launcher I'm using / how can I install a new one?

If there is a place where these questions have been asked I'll gladly check that out... no luck searching though.

Thanks again! :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DangKid:
You're using the Native Samsung launcher, "TouchWiz". This particular rom has TW4 (TouchWiz v4). You can download new launchers from the Market. Pressing the home button will bring up a menu asking you which launcher you'd like to use. You can the default whichever launcher you like best. Some of the best known launchers from the Market are ADW Launcher, Go Launcher, and LauncherPro. I personally like Go Launcher. I believe all of these will allow you to create folders and have apps "automatically scoot" when placing one over the other. Holding the app over another app for an extended period of time will create the folder. Let me know if you have any other questions. It took a long time for me to understand the whole launcher concept. You can literally change the look of your phone within seconds. It's one of the reasons I love Android.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bignate78:
I don't understand question 1. I'm not gettwwhat your wanting to do.

And for 2, you look in the market for a different launcher that suits your needs. Also there are apps that may do what you want as well. You'll just have to do some looking around.

When you choose and download a launcher , once done and you return to your home screen. Touch the home button and it should ask you what launcher you want to run. It will continue to ask you that unless you select the option at the bottom of that screen to run as default.

If your using Zeus your either using touchwiz or ice cream sandwich launcher.
