[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Floating Point:
No, only when I press wake up button or when the sound stop/begins.

I'm not sure, but maybe it's the headphones? Too much coincidence to happen on 3 different devices here.

I user Razer Moray earphones, it has noise canceling something built in, maybe this is the culprit. I have other Philips earphones laying around, I'll test them on the tablet to see if this happens too.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] cosmic06:
Hi I am rooted...not running the CM7 yet...but I have noticed it when I have the the sound muted and I am playing words with friends. This was also doing it before I was rooted as well. I have not noticed it sleep mode. this only happens though for me when I have all sounds and notifications muted.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
Put the tablet into sleep/standby mode (using short power button press) with WiFi on and no music playing and see if you get the click every few seconds.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Floating Point:
No clicks on sleep/standby mode under these conditions.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
Either it's a problem on some NT's or not everybody has good ears. :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Montisaquadeis:
hmm ok now I am not getting the clicking and I have not changed any of the settings or anything on the tablet. So I do not know how it vanished but it has for now.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] wklink:
Rooted 1.4.0 and I hear the clicking with either headphones or if I plug it into an external speaker.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
If your tablet goes into a deep sleep, it will disappear.... but I think we can confirm this as a bug. Though not a big annoyance, for the OCD types it is hopefully something CM7 will fix (perhaps kernel related).

Thanks for the input everyone.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] seanchronnery:
I put my tablet to sleep (power button) and yup, i hear a 'buzz/static click' noise at varying intervals with headphones plugged in.

Same noise as I am reporting here:

Just putting the device to sleep with a single click of the power button yet I also have some apps running that would keep the wifi on sicne one is an irc chat app and the other one is my Instant messenger app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falkon114:
Does anyone know if there's a way to select a range (such as a date, like january first to february 8) of text messages to restore? It gets annoying sitting through the restoration of thousands of text messages, when really i only need the more recent ones.

I suppose a manual workaround this would be to have the application delete messages after x days...

Ideas?

[General Questions and Answers] bogsplay:
Hello guys !

I wanted to ask if it is possible to lock back the bootloader after I unlocked with the official SE method and if it will work the official updates from SE in the future ?

And the other question, when ICS will appear officially for Xperia Play, and I have my bootloader unlocked, how could I have the newest version of Android on my phone ? Do I need to root the phone in order to have it, or it is enough to have the bootloader unlocked.

Regards.
[General Questions and Answers] chery2k:
No it is not possible to relock your bootloader. Update: Sony decide to dump ICS all together.

hey guys, well Iam a computer engineering student , and going to start my final year project, the project Iam going for is to develop an operating system universal enough that could run on almost any type of smartphones, i know that it is not a piece of cake , and developing everything from scratch would be impossible, according to me if i could develop a kernel level os in such a way that it is compatible with any kind of hardware , and for the application level layer i can modify android open source os, to start with i can use 2 smartphones ie one with android and other windows and somehow study the hardware they are using so that i can write a kernel in assembly language which is compatible with both,

i would like admins and developers to share there views and guide me with their opinions ..
[General Questions and Answers] abazz:
I've done nothing but flash phones with android but I've done plenty with Microcontrollers and microprocessors in hardware and software development. From your statement you have a lot to learn if you think you can best a C compiler's optimised output with your own assembly... with some controllers its advised to stay away from assembly altogether unless you know that micros architecture inside out.

Not to mention the years of community development and testing of the existing linux kernels for the various platforms out there
[General Questions and Answers] *GalaxyDev*:
dont really know how much you know about all of these stuff so from a 15 year old dev boy here is my advise(sorry if you know this just trying to help)

1)use two qualcomm devices(there are more of them than of other chipsets and are easier to dev to)

2)make it for now for single core phones(wp7 phones doesnt support dualcores and youll have a hard time if you use dualcore phones)

3)try to use old same manufacturer phones(in my personal view i would use two htcs...theyre just easier to dev....or in second case samsung)

4)good luck and prepare lots of coffee [youll really need it(said from an ubuntu dev)]

here are my ¢2 cents hope it helps

Why not just mod Android? It's open source and a lot of the legwork has been done already. No need to reinvent the wheel.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Master One:
I want to replace the background image on my X10 mini pro (MiniCM7-2.1.8) with a photo, and now I am wondering, which resolution I should resize the image to.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Master One:
This can't be such a stupid question after all, I tried to read up on the issue, but looks like a lot of people have problems understand how Android handles background images.

So the background image is panned across all homescreens (5 of them in the standard setup of MiniCM7-2.1.8) in a unique way, so the used background image can not just be as large as the physical display resolution.

Somewhere it was mentioned, the picture should be twice as wide as the physical screen, but I am not sure, if this really applies.

As the X10 mini pro has a 240x320 display, what has to be done, to use a photo which does not get cropped or stretched?

And how to overcome the problem with the display orientation, so once it fits for the 240x320 orientation, what happens when the phone gets turned resulting in the 320x240 orientation?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kxpa:
1 homescreen 480x320, 1 image 240x320 on the center

2 homescreens 480,320 2 images 240x320

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jankec79:
You don't need to physically resize image to set it as wallpaper. You can set one image as wp in many ways from default wp handler. ''Needed'' resolution is relative thing because of different number of home-screens that users have on their phones. Android handles this thing quite well.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Master One:
For reference, the background picture needs to be 480x320 independent of the number of home screens.

So for any Android phone, it's always 2x horizontal and 1x vertical screen resolution.

It makes sense to prepare the picture in advance, because obviously it consumes less memory and can be used without cropping.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jvc.silence:
i have found an app on market.

with this you can set any wallpaper from your gallery without cropping.(no matter the size of the picture)

search on market and install this app: wallpaper setter (by JPCXC).

How to use?

when you add an wallpaper you will have new option there called "Gallery(no crop)-hit that and select you wallpaper from gallery and you are done. SET.

[About XDA developers] kkoolpatz:
I am an experienced Unix and Android user who has been on XDA for more than year. Then why less than 10 posts? I never needed to post, if i had questions i would search and get the answers. the problem began when i had to post in dev sections for questions or answers relating a particular roms.

i do understand why the limit exist and off-course u cant look into someone's eye and determine if he really is a spammer or an experienced dev.

So i came up with an alternative. the number 10 is fine . but it should be 10 posts + thanks + recomendations. Meaning... if i am a new registered user but an experienced dev. to get my 10 beers i would have to post usefull answers which would count as posts, but if someone clicks thanks it should could towards my 10 beers since it was a useful post. There should also be a "recommend me" button for all below 10 post users. where if other users recommend me for the 10+ group it counts to my 10 beers. So i could be allowed to post in dev section if i havw only 2 posts where i have been thanked by 5 users and recomended by 3 users. (5 +2+3) = 10 beers.... Let me know what you guys think
[About XDA developers] Sanadrate:
i believe its 100 post for Senior
[About XDA developers] kkoolpatz:
i know that, but if you care to read the whole thing, you would know what i mean by 20 posts and 80 thanks (20 +80 =100)
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
It isn't difficult to get to ten posts. This is a community, not a support forum. We want to encourage members to participate here in order to join the community. That as well as a way to combat spam are the reasons behind the ten post rule.
[About XDA developers] x942:
I understand what you are saying, but it's pretty easy to get 10 posts. I mean I have been here for about a month and I have over 100 posts. Doesn't take long at all, all I do is reply to questions that I can answer and hopefully help with. It's one way I can help here because I am still working on developing and no where near as talented as some of the folks on here.

What about the promotions part of my essay? Again it may be easy to get 100 posts too, but hey... would'nt it be awarding to promote a user to Sr Member at 90 posts (plus considerable number of THANKS) because his 90 were better than the other users 100 post?
[About XDA developers] conantroutman:
Well that would be a decision for the admins.

I assume you meant senior member not moderator.

[About XDA developers] kkoolpatz:
Yes, corrected in my post. Thanks for pointing that out. :)
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
Thanks count should remain separate from post count. The titles need reworking anyway, but your idea isn't half bad. Try raising the idea in the requests thread sticky.
[About XDA developers] CallMeVentus:
Explain my post count , yes it's easy to get 10 posts :)

Herpderp Defy.
[About XDA developers] kiswa:
It may be easy to get the requisite 10 posts, but I still think his idea deserves consideration.

Though you'd really want a weighting system of some kind. For example, 1 post with 5 'thanks' counts as 2 posts, but with 10 'thanks' it counts as 4 posts. I don't know, something along those lines.
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
There is no reason to have the thanks count towards your posts. I'm in favor of it counting towards the meaningless titles that appear under your names, but that about it. It's really not that hard to get ten posts. I can't understand why you guys make it seem like the end of the world...
[About XDA developers] kiswa:
Maybe saying they should count as posts wasn't the right word, but having some kind of 'credibility' rating based on some weighted ratio of thanks to posts could certainly be a useful metric to determine someones ability to post in a restricted space.

I'd much rather have someone with 5 posts that has been thanked 30 times be allowed in a restricted section, over someone with 5000 posts and 30 thanks.

Of course, that all assumes people appropriately use the thanks system, so yeah.

I can't understand why people jump to hyperbole and assume some kind of personal attack is meant when others are merely attempting to discuss a topic of interest on a public forum. Weird, right? :rolleyes:
[About XDA developers] conantroutman:
The bottom line here is that we want members to actively involve themselves in the community, gaining ten proper posts is a good way to encourage this.

Theres also the issue of the thanks meter being essentially meaningless as someone could make two posts in off topic and easily gain ten thanks. (They'll thank anything in there :rolleyes: )

I don't foresee a change to this rule anytime soon but I dare say that if changes are considered further down the line then this will probably come up for discussion.
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
Once again, there is no reason to combine the thanks by any means into post count. I know what you are suggesting, but it isn't a good idea. weighting post count by means of thanks is opening the doors that were just closed for more spam. Why do you guys not see how simple it is to gain ten posts? Why would you not want to be a part of this community? That's what it's all about.

Also, I did not personally attack you at any point during either response, nor did I take your posts as attacks. Just because I point out flaws in your idea doesn't mean I dislike you as a person, just your one, singular idea by itself. Please remain civil.
[About XDA developers] kkoolpatz:
I agree that it is easy to get the 10 posts. what my second part of the thread is that. we should consider giving credibility to folks who post better quality of posts which are actually quite helpful. please bear in mind that i am not trying to say that we should combine posts and thanks... what i am saying is a person who posted 80 posted and got 40 thanks for the same deserves more credibility than the user who posts 100 posts with no thanks at all. and that since the prior user has better quality of posts we should consider promoting him to Sr Member. (giving credibility for the quality of him posts.)
[About XDA developers] Archer:
While I understand what you're saying, I don't think it's fair to judge a member on other members' use of the thanks button. You still see plenty of people actually posting "thanks", and not clicking it.

This can't be quanitified so it would be unfair.
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
The problem with that is only that the titles under the names are as meaningless as the thanks count. Just because it says Senior Member, that doesn't really get you any new amount of respect or anything. It doesn't let you post in any new forums. It's just a title change.

We've long argued for a better title system here. We've also long been ignored on it. We've previously stated that this system that you are proposing is very much open to excessive abuse. The other thing is that simply making someone a Senior Member has absolutely no benefits whatsoever.
[About XDA developers] kkoolpatz:
I agree. At 35xx posts They should call you the same as what they would name a person with 100 posts. the title system certainly need a big revamp.
[About XDA developers] Dirk:
I can imagine a fiendish and machiavellian system whereby a new member needs 10 Thanks, rather than 10 Posts, to have full access to Development forums. That would put the cat among the pigeons!

100 Thanks to become Senior Member, rather than 100 Posts. People really would have to think about the quality and usefulness of what they posted then.

Too much maybe? :p
[About XDA developers] pulser_g2:
Probably not enough... Look at my thanks bar... I was at 100 within a day of the bar being introduced :p So I think 100 thanks isn't really that many...

I think at least, you need to interlock thanks and time on the site...
[About XDA developers] scoffyburito:

[About XDA developers] Archer:
You wait ages for 1 and then 3 come along at the same time. Apparently :p
[About XDA developers] Dirk:
Ahh, but if a new user generates 10 thanks with his first post then he probably deserves immediate access to posting in Dev sections, as that first post would have been of sufficient usefulness and quality!

I also think that the post count requirement to access to the secret pr0n sub-forum should be reduced to 10,000. ;)
[About XDA developers] pulser_g2:
Lol.

But for ten thanks, noobs would just thanks each other to get up to the limit in "hello" threads
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
I agree. It's far easier to catch the abusers when they have to make posts. Finding them based on Thanks count would be more hassle. 10 posts is so easy to get. I don't think there's any reason for any noob with 10,000 Thanks and four posts to be able to be in the dev section. It's just too easy to get ten posts.
[About XDA developers] kkoolpatz:
Again, its not about 10 posts, its about credibility.. You have 1000+ thanks. You deserve to be titled something better than just senior member.
[About XDA developers] conantroutman:
The vast majority of users here are thankfully not concerned with gaining some kind of elite status, surely the combination of join date, post count and thanks is enough to show how helpful/experienced a member is.....
[About XDA developers] zelendel:
Agreed and to be honest thanks are handed out so freely that they mean next to nothing now. Alot of the users I know don't even pay attention to the number of thanks someone has.
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
I responded in the larger CM9 thread but it will probably be buried in a day or so. And I think this will help devs who are working on CM9 builds at the moment.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I build from the KFire-Android git as a testing model and i've been experimenting with a setting of "16" for touch slop, and in my opinion it's working much better.. could probably be 12, but who knows. I'm having a much easier time selecting things like Beautiful Widgets 1x1 Toggles, where before it was a trial of patience and about 10 touches.

This is a setting in the overlay config.xml file. I went ahead and committed it this morning to the KFire-Android org at Github:

https://github.com/KFire-Android/device-amazon-otter/commit/56b3d52fe6c645a18e60ab765e5b9831cb6a0663
[Kindle Fire Android Development] randallu:
Is the code that uses the clickSlop in android hackable for KFire?

I found on my device that most of the noise on taps was occurring in the last few samples (like the touchscreen firmware is averaging in some bad samples on finger release) and that by dropping the last few touch events I got much better touch response in my app. I'm not sure where to put such a state machine in the framework, though, or how to have it only for KFire...

(My state machine would buffer 3 samples ahead for the first 20 samples, and then drop the last 3 samples on finger up and patch N-3 to be a finger up instead of a move -- after 20 samples it just passed everything through with no buffering to avoid adding latency to drags).

Mine actually had that last night. I cleared dalvik and cache and rebooted and it was back to normal. It happened right after updating to the latest Franco kernel. Don't know if that caused it though.
