Does anyone know how to completely go back to stock? After using safestrap to install ICS on my Bionic a few times, my /system partition is now only +-300mb in total size, and it shows 0 bytes free in Root Explorer. I "sbf"-d back to 5.5.893, then did the process to get back to 5.9.902, but still have the problem. TIA
[Sony Tablet S] defsix:
Hi,

Ok so I decided to fix an annoying little rattle I had with the battery today. I opened up the 2 screws, slid of the cover and placed a little foam between the battery and chassis. Job done. Then I spotted a switch here

So I switched it (Yes the Tablet was off) and then I switched it back the other way. Put it all back together and attempted to power up. No good. Dead. Held the power button for 10 secs and still nothing. Plugged in the charger and lights flashed then could power it on. The battery was already fully charged and also indicated this when successfully powered on.

SO what did I switch ?

Sony Tablet S 16GB Wifi - rooted
[Sony Tablet S] defsix:
Any one any ideas ?
[Sony Tablet S] ps3taker:
Do you mean it works when plugged in? but not on battery? If so what percentage charge does it show - maybe try measuring voltage on battery - preferably direct if you can open the case again, or try some soft first - I saw som widgets etc measure voltage, temp etc - I don't use any of them so cannot recommend. I believe setting menu has battery status too but I believe it's just stating its state or something simple like that not the voltage.
[Sony Tablet S] defsix:
It works perfect now, it only didn't switch on the first time till i plugged in the charger. Now it works fine all the time. If you look at the picture the word OFF is printed on the PCB next to the switch. I'm really just curious to know what it switches off.
[Sony Tablet S] DreadPirateDan:
wtf... could this be like a manual s-off switch?

Would you be able to re-post the picture? It's not showing up for me (could be the work computers though) Or a link perhaps.

I wanna check this out myself when I get home, but firstly, how deep did you have to go to get to this, and did the rubber feet go straight back in easily and stay inplace well? Don't wanna have them falling out all the time :p
[Sony Tablet S] defsix:
Here you go

or here too

taking the rubber feet off was a little tricky. I used 2 nail files , one to push the rubbber from the edge of the hole and the other to lift it out. They are quite sticky and go back easily.

[Sony Tablet S] defsix:
I had a look at the pictures on the link above but still no mention as to what this off switch it for.
[Sony Tablet S] depulle87:
There is a switch inside the asus transformer that kind a looks the same and it is for the batery, when your device does not see your batery anymore than you can use the switch to deconnect and connect your batery again without removing it.

When the batery drops under a certain voltage the tablet wont reconize it anymore and than you need to do this.

I think when pulling the switch you"removed" the batery, that is way you had a scary startup after that
[Sony Tablet S] kadji9:
Is possible to add a better battery?
[Sony Tablet S] defsix:
The battery is completley removable so it can be exchanged. Its only a matter of waiting for one of the after market battery makers to come up with a bigger battery to install.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schlubbi:
Hello,

today i received my 10.1N.

I chose this because of its 3G function. Problem is that i cant use the MobileTV App from Deutsche Telekom to watch football. ( the app cannot be found in the market) The only way to get live football from Telekom is to use the webplayer. But as the players resolution is not made for the tablet its freezing all the time.

Maybe the is a way to solve this problem by resizing the resolution of the tablet. But as a total newby in this hole tablet stuff a idont know how to do that or even if that is a proper way to get my problem fixed.

As long as i cant watch the games on my tablet i use my sensation.

Btw: tethering from sensation to the 10.1 wont work because i need to deactivate wlan. Thats why i chose the 3g model.

Any ideas s.b.?

I have dell voice on my phone, most awesome thing since sliced bread btw look it up.

I want this program to stay running no matter what but it times out after an hour or so and shuts down.

Is there an android program out there that can stop other programs from closing?
[Xperia Play General] jacklebott:
No, no apps can stop other apps from closing. Some apps, however, can stop the phone from sleeping. If your app closes because your phone goes to sleep, it may help.
[Xperia Play General] Mael5trom:
what you want is to change the OOM process priority of the app, you can both view it and temporarily change it using AutoKiller Memory Optimizer. However...you might be able to alter things more permanently using v6 supercharger script(bulletproofing) or just the command line. Doesn't take long to learn once you know what to look for, i'd tell you how but i haven't needed it since i had my milestone and i've forgotten.

Also, changing the OOM priority requires root access.
[Xperia Play General] swebosdev:
Ok thanks for the tips guys
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
Hello all,

So I have really enjoyed this game GlTron ,but want to change the music of the game. I am rooted so I used ES File Explorer to get the APK off of the phone and onto my computer. I opened up the apk using 7zip and removed the .ogg song in the /res/raw folder. I then converted the song I have (Son of Flynn from the Tron movie) into an .ogg and renamed it to the same name of the song in the original apk. I dragged it from Windows Explorer into the /res/raw folder within 7zip and closed out. I put the apk on my phone and tried to install using ES File Explorer, but it failed. I then tried to install it by putting it in /system/apps and rebooting, it would install that way, but would force close right after I tried to start it.

Any ideas? If this is the wrong forum or not okay to do, please move/remove the thread. I figured the game is free and available under GPL it is okay to modify.

Thanks!

EDIT: This is where I came to my process of editing the apk

Click
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
You might have to actually decompile to do this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
yes I did, it is just one file.

If it is allowed I can upload the two .apks so anyone can look
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerrycycle:
Yes please upload.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
Alright here are the two apks, the modded one has the new song in it.

thank you everyone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mwalt2:
Have you tried re-signing it? I think apps in /data/app need to be signed. By changing the music, you probably made the original signature invalid. There are many tools to sign apk's, but this one is easy to use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikosrs4:
if everything else with the procedure is ok(mainly with the signing), try to reduce the bitrate of the song cause the default is 80kbps and the modded is 256kbps ;)

maybe it crashes for that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
I tried the resigner and the app would install, but would not launch, force closed again upon starting. I lowered the bitrate to 96kb/s and got the same thing...ideas?

EDIT: Took it down to 64 kb/s and got the same thing.

I would be happy to send a small paypal donation someones way if they could make this work :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
If I get some time later, I'll try to decompile, add your music ,and recompile.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
Oh wow that would be amazing and most appreciated, if you have a donation link I would be more than happy to send some money your way :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
Thanks. All my donations go toward my 2 day old son's toy fund. I changed your sounds no problem, but the originals and the modded were all the exact same size, which leads me to believe that somewhere, the sounds you wanted got lost. I'll upload it, and if it's still wrong music, just attach the individual .ogg files and i'll compile it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
This works great! How can I make a donation to you I really appreciate it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
Should have a donate button. Glad it works :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
My bad, is it easy/possible to boost the audio from the song? Sending a few bucks your way now !

EDIT: added .ogg file for another member who PM-ed me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
It's extremely easy. All professional audio editors have .ogg support, so it edits just like an mp3. Give me a few minutes. And thanks for the donation-deeply appreciated.

edit:here ya go- I bumped the overall volume of each by 50%, bumped the bitrate up to 320k and added some bass rumble to the explosion file. Be sure to uninstall my old modded version first to avoid parsing errors.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
Oh wow thank you so much. I meant for the song to be louder than the sound of the light cycle movement, but I am not going to ask you to do any more work. You have already done so much and I cannot be this picky with something. Just having the song is enough :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
No worries- I'm sitting in a hospital waiting room, and not getting any sleep with a 2 day old, so tinkering with a computer is no big deal. I put the original engine sound back in, so it should be lower than the music.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coreyjohnson711:
Thank you thank you, you are too kind. :)

I've written an application for android, and published it on the market 3 days ago.

I already have a about 500 downloads and 17 reviews.

I don't have problem finding the application on the market search, but i can't find the app when browsing at the top new free apps (looked in about 20 pages). Also can't find the app in when browsing through the category of the application. It's like the application is in the market but is not indexed anywhere... Can someone help?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Llamatron:
As the title says, if I try to enable USB or Wifi tethering on Quarx's 7.1-11 it won't work and at some point the phone reboots (to cyanogen mod logo, not the wasp screen).

I tried on Ubuntu who sees a connection but loops trying to connect without success, and Win 7 x64 who sees and install the adapter but can't connect through it. In both cases after a few minutes the phone reboots.

Wifi tether won't start and reboots the phone too.

Googled around to find an answer but didn't find anything helpfull.

It works with some wifi tether with an app from the market, but I would really have liked to get USB or at least default Wifi tether working rather than relying on an app, and I'm reading that it seems to work for most people so I wonder if my carier (Orange France) didn't sell me a phone where they disabled tethering at hardware level, would it be possible?

My phone has a green lense in case it could help find an answer.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch3st3r_lp:
Hi all,

I'm a really noobie on android customization and I was looking for the RESURRECTİON REMİX İCS ROM v9.0 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1436854&highlight=tutorial) and I read and searched over the dev thread and I saw the sequence and what I need to install, but the problem is: how to install those stuff? If anyone could help me on that I would appreciate that.

Thank you so much.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
If you need to ask, you shouldn't for a moment consider trying. Wait for ICS to be officially released by Samsung for your device or do some reading yourself. Being a noob is a choice you make, not something you're born with.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AShadowX:
Well, those files are needed to be added into your phone and then installed through CWM (Clockworkmod Recovery)

You'll want first root the phone with a kernel that has CWM as well. CF-Root would be the best one for beginners, you can find it on the Original Development thread and follow the steps there to root your device.

Afterwards, you'll want to reboot your device to CWM (Vol Up + Home + Power button when device is off) and install all the necessary files in sequence (using install zip from sdcard). First, make sure you do a nandroid backup incase you wanna go back to your old firmware if you regret it.

I'm pretty sure if you research more throughout the forums, you'll find out what you need to do (hell, it did for me, so it should for you as well)

Good luck!! :)

I was trying to go back to 2.3.x using ODIN after I installed the KP8 (update for a "leaked" ics) on my phone. Now my computer won't read the phone on download mode. Anyone have a fix for this?

Or do you know if that USB JIG will fix it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Danial723:
that was not for our phone....malciado....jtag is your only fix

sent from the near past
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthejoker20:
Yea..... GSM + CDMA = your screwed

There is no leak for ICS for our phones yet.

So you flashed the GSM version.

2 options:

Sprint insurance

or

buy a new phone

No one has been successful at jtag, I wouldn't even waste my time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] malcriiado:
Not even with the USB JIG? No one has tried it?

Sigh. Add one more to the list of bricked phones due to flashing an ICS leak meant for the International SGS2. As said above, your only option is to send the phone to JTAG if you want to use it again.

So what's the head count up to? 30s?

Look up JTAG on Google. I believe they charge $50 for unbricking service. You'll be out of a phone for awhile, but it's not like the phone is going to do you any good in its current state anyways.

Good luck. :(

Yea bro just placed my order from Mobile Tech Videos i'll post up how everything went to help others out with this problem. Good thing I kept my EVO for backup :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I can vouch that nothing will work. I had someone send me theirs to try and,I installed drivers through Kies, got drivers from XDA, tried a USB jig, hard reset, my SD card with Mobile Odin on it, etc, etc, etc. If when you hold volume up and power and you have the green Android guy holding a box and your phone says I9100, its jtag or nothing. I spent a week (about an hour a day) trying everything. If your phone powers on but you can't connect to wifi or SD card isn't recognized and no network is found, don't even waste your time. I tried because I hoped I could pull it off with the help of some of the great minds from around here but it just wouldn't be recognized by Odin....and it does beep when I plug it into my laptop....so close yet so far
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] malcriiado:
That Volume Up + Power does work. So you haven't looked into Mobile Tech Vids' method?

Did you seriously just toss some thinly veiled threat of physical confrontation at someone on an internet forum because he was pointing out that you were stupid enough to flash a ROM for a different phone that has, nowhere, been announced as available for your Epic Touch 4G?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
It has nothing to do with helpless remarks. However You were so quick to jump on a rom without reading what it was for as well. All you saw (which is my guess but bet I'm not far off with it) is ICS for the SGS2. You didn't bother to read that it was for the i9100 International version. This is the problem with most people that just jump on things without sitting back for a few minutes or even an hour and "actually" reading a bit before they do something.

For everyone that's ruined their E4GT cause of this flash I honestly don't feel bad for pretty much any of them. You took the risk but you also didn't read or even bother to look at the phone model number that's pretty much right at the beginning of the Odin file name scheme. As for your other comment This is a forum not a place to "try and flex" your internet tough guy bs. Grow up some before you post bs talking about lets do this in person it really makes you look like the idiot you already are.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wizard Knight:
The problem is that people get so excited when they see something for the sgs2 that they forget there is 4 different versions of the phone. Att, tmobile, sprint, and international.

I don't think it's a stupidity thing, people just get ahead of themselves and don't read.

People really need to start reading the stickied posts in these forums before jumping in. I came from the og epic which had basically the same method of flashing and rooting and I still read everything before hooking this phone up to the computer.

Just be more careful in the future, as time goes on, you'll see more similarly branded phones on multiple carriers and you always want to make sure you're using the right stuff.
