No. Makes no difference. Neither have the adreno 200 gpu, which is our only issue.

We have known this for the longest time.
[Desire General] shankly1985:
Thanks o well just thought i'll post it.
[Desire General] danarama:
Yeah. Unfortunately the adreno 200 is so old, there are no ics releases for phones that have these.

We may manage to hack it, but without qualcomm releasing source code drivers, we're stuck.
[Desire General] aaa:
@rootSU : Well...this also means that we should get a newer phone...this is the message which Qualcomm and HTC are trying to pass on us

the ICS ports for nexus one and desire are making progress though - so I wonder if this (DHD/DS roms) and a pretty well hacked together AOSP ICS rom will help.
[Desire General] danarama:
I dont think so. Everything that isnt hardware restricted is resolved.
[Desire General] CallMeVentus:
Hardware.....you mean like hwcomposer modules and Camera ?

[Desire General] danarama:
Hardware, like the physical things that you can touch.... Modules are software

You mean the hardware keys ?

I'm sure they'll , but I don't know about Camera....

What about USB tethering ?
[Desire General] danarama:
Is USB not hardware?

But yes you have a point, if USB tethering doesnt work (really? doesnt it?) then who knows...

Didnt know anyone used usb cables for anything other than charging ;)
[Desire General] dmfr:
Yes, we do ;)

The good thing about USB tethering, it charges and gives you connectivity at the same time.

The good thing about USB tethering, you can tether UMTS connectivity obviously...

...AND as well wireless connectivity, quite useful on authenticated hotspots overseas (hotels, airport lounges,...) to get a connection both on laptop and handset with a single voucher.

imho, wifi tethering is just a geeky feature, very handy to drain the battery in no time.

Except if you can plug the USB while you wifi-tether... Remind you of something ?
[Desire General] djfirefy:
I agree with you 100%! I used the USB cable for Internet Passthrogh. Since I used the ICS ROMs this feature is mised. For many of us it will be very useful.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jeffeb3:
I saw a pin out and link to the male and female dock connectors in the orig transformer q&a section. I am thinking about what I can do with them. Some ideas:

1) make a small adaptor from the dock connector to micro USB.

- I understand that charging is slow when connected to a regular USB charger, but I already have like ten of those around the house and in the car for our phones.

2) create an audio/charge only converter from the Asus connector to the iPod connector. I have a speaker that has an iPod dock, and friends/relatives have other accessories for iPods.

- I was thinking of cannibalizing an "ipod dock extension" cable, and connecting one of these mouser plugs.

3) make a cradle or dock, and include the dock connector. I don't plan on buying the keyboard for a while, so this might be a good way to make something out of wood, that lets me charge the tablet, while being able to keep it visible.

I just ordered my tp, so I was wondering what you thought would be useful and what I don't understand.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
Hi to everyone!!!:D

I wondering if somewhere it's available the AURORA LIVE WALLPAPER found on

Samsung Galaxy Note stock firmware

... :confused:

I've tried to find it in the NOTE section without success...can anyone help me or know where to find it? ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
download a gnote rom and pull from there..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
Ok...I'm trying it now...I hope I can be able to do it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
i looked for LWP in the note section,but i found only the livewallpaperpicker.apk..let me say if you'll find that..;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
I've found it and installed successfully on the device: with Nova Launcher it seems to run good...sometimes it can show some lag, but it can be quite good.

The only thing that is VERY UGLY is the ram occupied: 33Mb... :eek:

Anyway, if I can post it I will do it, no problem about that... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chilled26:
Please post it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
Well ok, this is the Live Wallpaper...as you can see it's pretty "big" in terms of memory...let me know if this runs good on your devices and what rom you have...I'm on AOKP v22 with Nova Launcher...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
thank you!i have a gnote rom in download,but too low bandwith because it's 560 mb and my pc is uploading also 1000+ wallpapers on picasa for the gnex gallery....it ends tomorrow with that slow connections.now i can stop the rom download because you posted that!

grazie mille!;)

ps..if the live wallpapers isn't rendered for ICS, cpu,roms e kernel don't mind.hope that is rendered at least more than ICS gnex default's like microbi and others...

anyway i'm on AOKP M3+TRINITY
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
Well, give me a thanks...dammi un grazie! ;)

Anyway...test it and let me know: in my opinion it's too huge and slow down a bit the launcher...

This Galaxy Nexus it's a shame with ALL the live wallpapers... :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
TE L'AVEVO GIA DATO!ne vuoi un altro??eccolo!:D:D

non c'entra nulla il terminale,non e' questione di potenza o ram,ma solo di rendering del live wall.se non va bene e' solo colpa di samsung che non l'ha ottimizzato per ICS,come del resto gli altri che gia abbiamo sul nostro!

ciauz!;)

it isn't the power of nexus or the ram...only the LWP that samsng don't optimize for rendering on ICS OS,like others default on our roms!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
Well thanks...grazie per l'altro grazie...ricambiato!!!

I've thought about the optimization fact regarding live wallpapers and ice cream sandwich...well...let's see when some NEW live wallpapers will hit the market how our Nexus will perform...

Or we can hope that Samsung will keep his live walls on the ice cream sandwich release on Galaxy S2 and Note... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whiteintegsg316:
Will this kill my battery
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gja88:
Wondering the same thing. Thing looks great and it lags sometimes. But its a lot better than the stock live wallpapers. Will this kill battery compared to other wallpapers?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fr3quency:
What does this aurora look like? Anyone can provide pictures? Thanks. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hugebulge:
thanks for the upload
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
here you are costantinos!it's a semi-animated blue aurora boreale..I(i don't know how is in english aurora boreale..)

:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
Well...I don't know, you have to try...

Anyway, it lags a bit...I'm asking to myself if the leaked icw cream sandwich rom from samsung contain the live wallpapers optimized for this software version... it will be amazing!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
nope...according to what they say around ..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheBiles:
Very sexy, but it shows some lag on AOKP 22 and Nova. I'm still sticking with Phase Beam.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] appledroid:
I'm running Android Revolution HD (4.0.2) and the stock launcher. It runs flawlessly without lag, still looking if it's a battery drain. So far so good, I've been on Phase Beam prior to this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
runs great if I set the launcher to not scroll wallpapers. I notice lag otherwise.

There's something weird with scrolling wallpapers on the Galaxy Nexus.

LTE EX Galaxy Nexus - 4.0.3 AOSP

Asus Transformer - Revolver OC/UV
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
Really??? Wow...not even a little lag on it? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
I don't see any lag once I disable wallpaper scrolling in my launcher. I'm using Apex.

I also used Digital Rain (pixel rain? ). It ran well too with wallpaper scrolling.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kbrian:
What was that one live wallpaper that if you double tap the screen you'd go light speed past stars?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
That's the one who change sky color and aurora type if you touch the screen...anyway, with APEX rom I can confirm that, if you disable wallpaper scrolling, runs ok with sometimes a little lag, but rarely...

I hope that soon those Live Wallpapers will be fixed for ICS...or really I'll start to think that Nexus's HW isn't that powerful...:mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheBiles:
Starfield.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Na. I don't think so. They don't have a problem on the Nexus S running ICS... and our hardware is obviously faster then theirs. This is why I suspect that it is a software bug or something with drivers on the Galaxy Nexus. It's also apparent that developers can *do something* to fix it too. Who knows. I'm sure it'll be fixed in due time. Probably at the bottom of the list of things to fix though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] --anx--:
I hope so...

Sorry to bring such an old thread back.

Thanks to the user who posted the. apk - I have this on my Note, and wanted it on my tablet. Have installed it, but unfortunately, its a 4:3 screen, so I have a strip of the next wallpaper on each homepage. Is there any way to alter the aspect ratio on a wallpaper under ICS?

Thanks in advance.

I recently bought a samsung infuse from ebay. It's unlocked for me because i live in norway. But I have 2 problems! 1: I can't select the mobile network who I want to use. 2: I can't surf online on the phone using my carrier, it works only with wifi.

Can anyone help me?

sorry for my bad english!
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
You type better English than most Australians I know :p

To use your carriers data service, you will need to set up what are called 'APNs' on your phone. This installs the correct settings on your phone to access the internet.

Setting up APNs is very simple. Go into Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks. In here there is an option called 'Access Point Names'. If you tap on it, you're probably looking at a blank screen. This is where we can add your carrier's internet settings :)

What carrier are you using? We will need to locate the correct settings for you, before proceeding :)

Talk to you soon!

[General Questions and Answers] jedinegotiator:
I just switched to AT&T from sprint and I love that I can actually stream a netflix video now. But with streaming comes a lot of data usage. I am currently on the 3GB plan. I was just wondering if there is any way to get into a AT&T unlimited plan. I know an AT&T employee with unlimited...guess its a perk, but I was wondering if anyone knew any work arounds.

I have researched and found a iphone 2g method that looks like it might work IDK. I have a Samsung Galaxy S II.

Anyone that could shed some light please do, thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] Jesushaxyou:
The only legit way that I know of is to be grandfathered in to the unlimited plan. I.E. you had unlimited data with them before they turned it off.
[General Questions and Answers] p00kienrayray:
I used the 2g iphone method back in late November and it worked. Should still work, not sure though. And it's perfectly legal as far as I know.
[General Questions and Answers] jedinegotiator:
I dont have an iphone nor do I have any kind of sim card knowledge. This is my first GSM network...is there any way to buy a simcard that would give me unlimited?
[General Questions and Answers] p00kienrayray:
No, maybe u can borrow someone's iPhone 2g or buy one and sell it back. Its worth it IMO. There's even ppl on eBay that do it for u for $30 with no negative reviews at all. But that's up to u if u wanna take the risk.
[General Questions and Answers] jedinegotiator:
So if I do buy a iphone 2G how exactly does it work? Can I use the sim card in my Galaxy S II or do I have to get a new sim card?
[General Questions and Answers] Jesushaxyou:
You need a 3G SIM card for the newer phones whereas I don't believe the iPhone 2 was 3g at all.

Your SIM card should work in it.
[General Questions and Answers] Stadsport:
I believe the iPhone 2G loophole has been closed.

Not to be a negative nancy, but some users are reporting throttling at 2.1, even 1.6gb of use on AT&T's unlimited plan... might be more beneficial to keep the 3GB plan right now!
[General Questions and Answers] p00kienrayray:
Oh, that sucks. Yes the the throttling thing is kind of getting out of hand. I got the message at the end of the month saying I was in the top 5% heavy data users, and subject to throttling, but I only used 2 gb! I guess its just one way for ATT to stick it to those with unlimited.

Btw is there someone or a link that can confirm that the loophole has been closed?
[General Questions and Answers] Jesushaxyou:
They kind of did this really well, though, if you think about it.

They announced throttling and got rid of unlimited. Now the majority of people are on limited data, so the few on unlimited ARE the top 5% of data users given that the average plan is a 2GB data plan.

So you're kinda screwed.
[General Questions and Answers] Wingwalker84:
The throttling by AT&T is rediculous. I was grandfathered in to the unlimited data plan, and I think it is BS that they throttle me back after using about 2 GB. I stream a lot if Sirius/XM radio so my data gets used up quick. I wish I could find a way to prove that it is against my contract. I have already filed a complaint to the FCC about AT&T back when they were harassing me about tethering and saying that docking my phone to my truck stereo was tethering.
[General Questions and Answers] kindley:
i have att as far as i know there is nothing like that.
[General Questions and Answers] jedinegotiator:
Well guess I will hold of for now then. The fact that they throttle is understandable to me but when they throttle you so soon and slow you down so much it seems like there should be something done about it.

Yes they only say unlimited data and dont promise any certain speed but I dont think they should be able to throttle you below 1.5Mbps because once you go so low it is basically cutting off your internet anyway. As it is now it looks like they could technically only give you a .1mbps data connection and get away with it because you still have unlimited data...

If you compare with 4s internal memories, and the samsung galaxy S2 and S1.. It's different, i think the rest of the memories been given to the operating system.. So i thought of the first day i use Note after S1/S2/4s.. The bigger the phone the less the size of the memories LOL.. :D But that good to have external memories. Ever tried installing 32gigs memories card?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromepearce:
Yup. It is 16GB, and that appears to be split into:

800 MB 'RAM'

1 GB 'Phone Space'

11 GB 'usb storage'

Using my amazing mathematical powers, I deduce that excluding the silly 'GB rounding errors', we have 3 GB or so left over and that contains the OS itself. I am guessing about that however, it may be laid out in separate chips or something. It seems most likely that a 16 GB ship would be used, however, as 11 GB chips just don't exist.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordManhattan:
Nothing new. I have a 4GB memory stick, and surely enough it's not 4GB, but it's 3.7 GB. My laptop has 500GB HDD, but it doesn't have the full 500GB, but it has 470GB. That's 30GB out the window.

I don't understand why they don't make it 530GB, take their stinking 30GB, and give me my 500GB :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] William Haven:
"The difference between units based on SI and binary prefixes increases as a semi-logarithmic (linear-log) function—for example, the SI kilobyte value is nearly 98% of the kibibyte, a megabyte is under 96% of a mebibyte, and a gigabyte is just over 93% of a gibibyte value. This means that a 300*GB (279*GiB) hard disk is indicated only as 279*GB. As storage sizes increase and larger units are used, this difference becomes even more pronounced."

from wikipedia
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromepearce:
While that is certainly true of hard disks, because of their arbitrary size, you will notice that all flash drives, and indeed all memory chips, come in 'set' sizes. Each is basically double the previous. In such chips the size issue you mention would not cause any difference, I believe.

I am pretty certain that this thing has a 16GB memory chip, but the partition for usb storage is just a partition of that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WereCatf:
Yes, it would. The maths is still the same, no matter the size of the device or its type. Like e.g. my 16GB microSDHC is actually 14.9GiB.

As for the OP: it is common for device manufacturers to report the whole amount of installed storage, even if that storage cannot be used by end-users. It's a simple marketing trick where the only point is to try to make it seem more than it actually is in reality. It's not technically lying, it's just not telling the whole truth.

Also you can quite safely assume that you'll actually be able to use only about 70% of the reported storage space, the rest is for ROM and such. It's the same thing for all of my mobile devices, including my Iconia Tab A500 tablet.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inkanyamba:
Actually, that is not entirely correct. Flash-based storage devices come with sizes in powers of two as, I believe, this is a consequence of the technology and of the manufacturing process.

Your example of the SDHC card is valid only because the formatted capacity is different and always smaller than the device capacity due to filesystem overhead. There is no units conversion loss here, it is a real one because you simply cannot have a filesystem without any overhead (remember that there is no free lunch).

Magnetic storage devices do suffer, however, from the misleading advertisement of having their capacity expressed in powers of ten, not of two. Moreover, there also is the loss of user-available capacity by the means of using a filesystem, so then you have a two-fold decrease in total user available capacity. :)

To cut a long story short: the Note has, indeed, a 16 GiB flash-storage chip inside. A part of this is reserved for the OS (about 3 GiB), another part is reserved for application storage (about 2 GiB) and the rest (about 11 GiB) is all for the user to fill up with her stuff. :)

Have you ever had to download album art for the many songs on your sdcard, and then notice later they are not there anymore?

This is a really funny bug that I notice now and then.

Maybe it's just me but have you ever had this happen to you?

If so, what was the resolution?

Tia
[HTC EVO 3D] triscuit1983:
The reason mine has disappeared in the past is because I go through my SD and delete folders that look like useless cache folders. Particularly the ones in /Android/data. I've learned that if I want my artwork to stay, I can't delete the "com.android.providers.media" or "com.google.android.music" folders.

If that's not why it's happening to you, then I've got no idea why it's happening.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
haha, yes, many times had the issue, so I themed default art in music apk and fusion and musicwidget apk :)
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
I've been trying to figure this out also. I have use the Sense player to update album are from Gracenote it says. It works nicely, but some are wrong and some don't get any and you cannot search otherwise.

I have used Cover Art Download and it works well, but when you auto update it, the pictures are low res. If you manually select each one they will be the higher res photo.

I have used Cover Art Grabber and it allows to search, but they don't display right in the Sense HTC Music player.

All of these also have the same issue. Once I get all set to a good high res photo and the right one, I inevitably reflash :) and have to do it all again. The caches involved must be on the internal phone mem and not my sd. Even if I select on Cover Art Download to put the file in the folder, which is on the sd card, they do not link correctly upon reflash.

I wish I could do it once and they stay right on the card and display correctly since I reflash too much ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] knightwolf123:
Well I didn't delete them.

Looks like stored in folder albumthumbs.

It's like they lose there associations or something. I always change so many files and theme everything so I thought I may have been causing problem but it's way too random to track. Lol

Edit: in using HTC music player and "album art grabber" apk currently

It's only 4000 songs :)

[HTC EVO 3D] triscuit1983:
When it comes down to it though, I'm a spaz about making sure the artwork is embedded in the mp3 before it even makes it to my SD. I use mp3Tag to edit all the metadata of my mp3's. I don't think my situation is at all the same with the downloaded artwork not showing up.

Since your an avid mod/themer, it could be due to the fact you're constantly clearing cache and dalvik.
[HTC EVO 3D] knightwolf123:
Well you've given me a great idea.

I'll take the 10,000 + mp3s on my PC and get the album art and then transfer to my 32gb sdcard. Or at least 4-5,000 of them to keep me happy. Then I won't have an issue. I should have thought of that before.

Thanx a million! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
lol it's not THAT cool :p I actually posted a thread, beats music mod, go check the pics for it. If you like it, DON'T download it, PM me, I have an update to it. Also, depends maybe what ROM you're on so I'll need to know that. And honestly the coolest music mod I think I did was on the lockscreen I edited out every single music widget image EXCEPT the artist and song text, and the buttons - everything else is gone (including the entire rear "flip" side). Peace laie :)
