[Sony Tablet S] the_black_dragon:
Hello everyone

I have a problem... I got a Sony Tablet S as permanent test device from Sony Austria. But I live in Germany. Now it seems that these sony services VideoUnlimited and Plantation store aren't available in Austria and Android Market seems to check only an internal regional code because of missing sim card. So how can I change region of my tablet (already rooted) to get these apps officially with instant updates?

Changing build.prop didn't work because I already copied one of an German identical model onto mine.

I think its possible with the prop file. because when I had my play I used to change it to get games from Japan store

[Sony Tablet S] thomas.raines:
Editing the build.prop should have worked. Are you pulling the build.prop to your computer and editing it in Notepad++, then pushing it back via adb or droid explorer? Or, are you mounting /system as rw, then chmod 666 the build.prop via terminal emulator, then using script manager, edit the proper values directly on the device, saving and rebooting? If one of those isn't the method you used, then try one of those 2 and report back.
[Sony Tablet S] the_black_dragon:
I tried editing it and I copied a complete build.prop from another Tablet S from Germany.... It didn't work

region of your tab = SKU values.

take a closer look at /configs/region.zip

but be careful, dont mess your device ;)

you should propably easy change it :)

oh and remember - make backup first!!!
[Sony Tablet S] yohandesilva1:
Yes sir I did :) All I wanted to say was that its possible with he prop file, because you have said that you tired and failed.

backup!

I have a sony tablet s. I want to know how to backup such that even if I mess with the system I can revert to the old state. If you mean backup the system files just in case, I can understand but I have been unable to find a way to make a complete restore backup so just wanted to ask.

Hello, i have overclock my tablet with tegrak, i have set cpu to 1600 and gpu to 400.

I have tray to play with gta3 with these settings and the risoult is awesome! The game is more smoth and the lag goes out! I mean at full resolution !

My question is.. sameone have any experience in overclocking this samsung devices with a9 and mali-400 ? Sameone have used any galaxy s2 or galaxy note for long times with the gpu and cpu overclocked? Any issues? Your overclocked devices still works or the overclock has broke it? In your opinion my p6800 (that is more large of a galaxy s2 and loss more heat)will handle an overclocked gpu and cpu without destroing itself? Please same real experience :)

Ps. Is there any way to overclock the mali in any different speedstep? The only one after 276 is 400, and 400 maybe can be too hot.

Don't you need a special kernel to be able to over clock? Or does tegrak somehow bypass that need?

Thanks to these guys you can now enjoy the widget! Works fine on my Galaxy s2, just had to move the temperature a bit.
[Android Themes] congo1971:
How did you move the temperature? I can't find a way to do it :(
[Android Themes] larza83:
1. Open UCCW and open the skin (in my case Dom1n8tr1x_samsung_s3....)

2. In the dropdown list (where it says background) choose "Current temperature"

3. Now press the icon with the 4 arrows and move with the arrows now showing up below.

4. When you have moved it click meny and Save skin. Done! :)

Added 2 printscreens, one with the widget in place and one of UCCW interface describing the above.

Hi there, my phone reboots everytime i put it into disk drive mode. Are the files needed stored on sd card or something? It just goes into the custom splash screen and loads up again :S:confused:

Edit: Seems like the custom sense skin is stored on the SD card therefore making it crash. When i mount to charge only again and try to change skin it force closes and comes back with the skin i was using before mounting as disk drive.
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
same thing happened to me... you use a skin that is located on sd card, you need to move it on your phone so you can connect storage... also make sure launcher and such stuff that is necessary for the phone working properly is installed on phone memory and not on sd card...

How do i make sure it is on the SD Card? I have root explorer but im not sure where the file(s) go.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Palingenesis:
As many of you may know, Dropbox is currently holding a promotion for their new automatic photo upload thing. For every 500mb of pictures I upload, I get 500mb free (4.5GB limit).

I am trying to think of the best / fastest way to do this. I've been looking and looking for high resolution photos, but most all the ones I find are just under 1mb. I'd have to download atleast 500 of them to get the first 500mb. I even began just snapping random photos with my phone, just pressing the camera capture button, over and over and over for a total of 311 times lol. It was nowhere near enough pictures.

Anyone have any advice? Or does anyone have a place for photographs with large file size? To those of you that have already done this, could you tell me what you did to do it?

let the battery fully discharge and then charge it. I was having a similar situation but I found out that the battery charge wasn't displaying correctly. A complete discharge recharge cycle improve the situation, although it still doesn't so charge up to 100%, stays at 93/94%.

I tried this method but it doesn't bring any improvements. Is there anything else I can do to fix this battery issues.

Thanks.
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
Did you do a full wipe after you updated to 4.0.3? I'm seeing about the same battery usage after the update (maybe even longer battery life). There are some apps that are not very compatible with ICS that could be causing problems as well.
[Nexus S General] glennkaonang:
Yes, I did a full wipe using the flashable ROM-Wiper and Dalvik-Wiper.

As for apps, I don't have many apps. I just use this phone for messaging, RSS reading, and some little browsing.
[Nexus S General] 309041291a:
Why don't you do a manual wipe. That might be better. Also mess around with some CPU and governor settings (which includes flashing a new kernel and ROM).

So I'm about to update to the new 4.04 radios. I heard that flashing from the 4.03 radios result in a not-so-pleasant result.

I've never flashed radios before, so I'm almost certain that I have 4.02 radios.

I have the EK05 and EK02 radios, which I know are the 4.02 radios.

However, my build number is IML74K, which is the 4.03 build.

Is it just because my ROM uses android 4.03, that my build is IML74K?

Also, can I flash .img files on CWR or do they have to be done on bootloader through cmd?

Hey,

There is a strange effect with revolver rom.

I flashed revolver rom to my TF101G and tried to reinstall all my apps, including the bought app weather pro HD.

But I can not install the app, because the android market doesnt show it anywhere.

If i search manually via the browser I can find it, but if i want to install, the market says, that the app does not support the device.

How can this be? The app worked fine on revolution hd and original firmware.

Thanks for your help.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modmatt:
This is a common problem. It's often caused by differences in the build.prop of your new ROM. Try manipulating your current build.prop to make the model identifaction identical to that of your last ROM. The forum has a plethora of how tos to do that.

This problem often occurs with the T101G model, as quite a few apps only list the T101 as compatible but they miss the T101G, as they consider it a niche model. So simply switching your build.prop entry (not the whole file though!!) to the one of the T101 should fix this kind of problems!

edit: see this app to change build.prop: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1479703

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black-Shock:
Ok, so, it took a while to get it run, and I think I should tell you what i did.

Revolver Rom sets the build version to 8.6.5.21 and the pad location to US.

This is a Promlem for EU versions, because of there some apps not available in some regions/ on some hardware.

First, i suggest to use a normal text editor instead of using the build.prop tool. The tool is nice, but you dont get an overview of the complete file und you cant outcomment lines, so i use the es fileexplorer and its integrated ez text editor.

1. Go to /system and open the file build.prop

2. Change the following items by outcommenting the old lines and write the new lines under.

#ro.wifi.country=US
ro.wifi.country=GB
# ro.build.fingerprint=asus/US_epad/EeePad:3.2.1/HTK75/US_epad-8.6.5.21-20111216:user/release-keys

ro.build.display.id=HTK75.revolver-3.11.1_epad-8.6.6.23-20111202
#ro.build.date=Fri Dec 16 13:21:01 CST 2011
ro.build.date=Sat Dec 3 00:50:25 CST 2011
#ro.build.date.utc=1324012861

ro.build.version.incremental=WW_epad-8.6.6.23-20111202

Do not touch the other line.

3. I don't know if you only need to restart or reboot to recovery and wipe the cache. I've wiped the cache (attention, only the cache wipe, not a full wipe)

4. After reboot the market should show you all the apps, you get with the original stock image
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modmatt:
Hi,

nice follow-up!

Just remembered, that if your problem is merely based on the region, rather than on the model, you could always go with the App "Market Enabler", that allows changing region on the fly.

Cheers, modmatt
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black-Shock:
Thanks matt, but in this case it wasnt a problem of region only. Because i tried to set replace the US with the WW only, without any luck. It worked not untill i changed the buildversions etc.

Would like to know if the App Weather pro HD is only available on TF101G. Because that seems to be if i look to the solution of problem. Is there anyone could try this out?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modmatt:
For me it's available on T101 with Revolver. Device was bought in Germany and I never manually edited the build.prop in any way. So it might depend on your provider for your 3G card.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black-Shock:
really? I bought my tab also in germany. Dont think, its a problem of the provider. I think its more the difference between tf101g and the version number of the firmware, because usually there couldnt exist a tf101g with a firmware version of a tf101.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Waifff:
I recently received my Galaxy Nexus - and love it!

My idea was to keep it as stock as possible, but I wanted to change the look and feel to be more minimal, without having to install a non-stock launcher or use a different ROM. (The inspiration for this came from Nitroz's 'Black Exodus' theme.)

Phone : Galaxy Nexus, Rooted, now with a slightly modified stock ICS 4.0.2

There were a number of posts all around the Internet that led me in the right direction. To the cast of thousands who shared their information - Thank You!! The instructions below are just a compilation of the work already out there, but hopefully as they are in one place they will speed things up if you want to do this.

I am assuming that any future OTA updates will reset this.

Instructions for a Newbie (like me)

Requires :

One Rooted Galaxy Nexus

Way of getting files on and off the phone - I am using ES File Explorer

7-Zip on a PC

The new icons

The icons are located in the APK files located in the \system\apps folder.

To change the SMS icon

On the phone

Backup the original \system\apps\mms.apk file

Copy the \system\apps\mms.apk to a PC with 7-ZIP installed​

On the PC

Open with 7-Zip (DO NOT EXTRACT)

Change to the res\mipmap-xhdpi folder

Drag and drop the new PNG file (ic_launcher_smsmms.png) over top the old one.​

Copy the APK file back to \system\apps on the phone

The phone does not require a reset, but you will need to add the icons back.

To change the Contacts and Phone icons

These are located in the \system\apps\contacts.apk.

Folder - res\mipmap-xhdpi

Files - ic_launcher_phone.png, and ic_launcher_contacts.png​

To change the Browser icon

These are located in the \system\apps\BrowserGoogle.apk.

Folder - res\mipmap-xhdpi

File - ic_launcher_browser.png​

To change the App Drawer icon

These are located in the \system\apps\launcher2.apk.

Folder - \res\drawable-xhdpi\

File - ic_allapps.png​

Removing the line above the App Doc

The file from the phone to edit is \system\apps\launcher2.apk.

On the PC create a blank file called hotseat_track_holo.9.png.

Overwrite the file in the /res/drawable-xhdpi directory of laucher2.apk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
Just a thought, but Nova Launcher looks exactly like the stock launcher, but you can change the icons to whatevery .png you want directly from the homescreen. They will remain even after updates to the app. It's entirely up to you, but i thought that might save you a ton of work ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Waifff:
And save myself 2 days of pain and frustration?? ;-) It was a good learning exersize, although when the config gets nuked by an update, and I don't have the time to play, I will look at using a different launcher. Thanks for highlighting Nova as an option.

Was just going through my account and decided to check how much phones are at retail price, so I clicked my line for a upgrade knowing I'm not due for one, scrolled all the way to the bottom and noticed the Galaxy Note. Now here's the interesting part. I'm not due for an upgrade till December of this year. The Galaxy Note still says $299 if you preorder even if I'm not eligible for an upgrade.

I checked with an agent and she says that it's correct, even though I'm not eligible it's still available for $299. I think that is AWESOME.

Proof:

Don't hate on my typing errors, I was typing from my iPad =(

Anyone else notice this or know why it's available so low even without an upgrade available.
