[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] NineT9:
Wow, thanks for that post :) I've been asking numerous people and read a few threads/articles online about VOIP, and what you said is exactly what I was afraid of, and I've been told it won't happen if you have a connection... but I thought, well what if I'm driving? That means the speed will only decrease drastically, and like most people I talk while driving a lot...

I was afraid of the dropped calls, echos, upsetting the other end, etc etc... looks like that will happen still :(

Sadly, I think I will also have to go back to a dumb 4" phone too :\ I really want to use the new Galaxy Tab 7 Plus as a phone, shame it's not possible like the original :\

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
Any reviews out yet? They should be hitting this week since ATT sends out promo units before launch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mchao92:
SO MANY UNBOXINGS! It's so over-stated, but IT FEELS JUST LIKE CHRISTMAS!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zer0nine:
Reviews of phones in my opinion need at least a month of the phone being used.

People that post "reviews" a couple days after release are merely a "hands-on" video of the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
I meant places like engadget or mobile tech review. Surely they have had the phones for a week. I trust them to give me objective information. They can do that spending a few days or a week with a phone.

Thanks for the videos!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zer0nine:
The portrait to landscape (vice versa) transitions?

Agreed to an extent. On my Nexus S running ICS the transition delay was 200ms and was changeable to up to 10ms.

I found that having a quick auto rotation could be sometimes frustrating because the screen would rotate when I didn't want it to, like when I put the phone down on the table.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] droidal:
I understand what your saying. Everything else looked super fast.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kanate:
Too bad none of the review show the back of the back cover. Would like to see if it has NFC antenna there or not
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] droidal:
This review on Phonearena does and it appears to not be there, so he says at 1:58.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] teiglin:
It has NFC but my understanding is that it's not currently enabled in the stock software. Presumably this is a difficulty a custom ROM or kernel maker could rectify. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LiquidArrogance:
is it FRIDAY YET?! lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kanate:
Oh, haha. He said No NFC but the antenna is right there on the back cover. So it's confirmed, there's NFC antenna on the back cover. I'm wondering if the flip cover that bestbuy is giving away free for preordering will have that antenna as well

My inital (and interesting) observation: AT&T's Note is the first Snapdragon-based Samsung that feels faster than the Exynos counterpart.

[Kindle Fire General] renamedresfile:
I already rooted my kindle fire, downloaded android market I loggedin using a google account. After that I was unable to change the google account. Browsed web and I saw the post of the video. I followed the instructions in the video.

steps followed: using root explorer, went to /system/framework and renamed framework-res.apk and and after I completed the renaming, the device crashed (or I clicked something; hence crashed?) and stuck in blank carrousel page.

So, I rebooted and all I get now if boot logo of 'Kindle fire'. It doesnt go any forward.

I connected to PC and I am able to see the device in ADB. But no root access in shell. So, any adb command I give I get back errors like: no permission; read-only folder, etc.

When I use the Kindle fire utility v0.9.3 and try to do temp root or root, I get

Error type 2 android.util.AndroidException: Can't connect to activity manager; is the system running?

adbd cannot run as root in production builds

PC detects the device as 'Android Composite ADB interface'. But cant do anything in adb. I can push files to /data/local/tmp folder. Thats about it.

adb shell mount is not allowed

when I do

adb shell mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak /system/framework/framework-res.apk

I get:

failed on '/system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak' - Read-only file system

Can someone help rename this file back to original framework-res.apk?

Thank you very much;
[Kindle Fire General] airmaxx23:
You should be able to mount the system r/w with the proper command, hopefully someone will be here soon to give you the commands.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
do you have fff & twrp available ?

if yes boot to twrp - there you have full adb availabe and you can copy your backup framework-res to the kf
[Kindle Fire General] powerpoint45:
same thing happened to me,but I made it worse and the computer wouldn't even detect the KF.I had to return it.

Sorry): I know how it feels
[Kindle Fire General] daggy1985:
Try using 'adb remount' then try to rename it again.

if you get the 'Read-only file system' error again:

adb reboot

adb remount

try again

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baylisg:
Just have the S2 from my old faithful HTC HD2 - with the HTC I use to use it in the gym with my bluetooth headset listening to music but with the phone turned off so I would not be disturbed..........

And from what I can see that is no longer possible with the S2 - surely there must be a way to turn the phone off and still use bluetooth without having to hack the root etc

I know I can use WiFI while in flight mode and GPS but that does not help whilst out running / in the gym - that's basically my time and I do not want to be disturbed, or disturb others hence wanting to simply turn the phone off that's all :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
By "phone off" you don't actually mean powering the device off, do you? Because that would be neat trick, listening to your music while the device was completely powered off.

You could turn Auto reject mode on to turn away all calls. (settings > call > call rejection)

EDIT: and what's wrong with flight mode? I'm not clear on why this wouldn't work for you. Or is it that you still want mobile data, but no phone calls?

EDIT 2: Herp derp, I see, it IS because you want mobile data, right? Since if you're out running, you don't have wifi available. So yeah, Auto reject mode should work for you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AloneOnTheDark:
He wants to use his phone like an mp3 player with bluetooth headsets. He wants to "turn off" phone functions and use only the phone like a music player.

AFAIK in "flight mode" is not possible to use bluetooth.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
D'oh... missed one little detail.

Right, it's not possible. Bluetooth won't turn on in flight mode. Sorry.

Auto reject mode should still work for the OP's purposes though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baylisg:
AloneOnTheDark is spot on - really just a simple request one would have thought......

He wants to use his phone like an mp3 player with bluetooth headsets. He wants to "turn off" phone functions and use only the phone like a music player.

Only issue using the Auto Reject mode is that the caller calling me does not get put through to my voice mail and all the caller hears is that the call is unauthorised..... so not really that sensible as it might be a client trying to get hold of me, and at least a voice mail etc they can handle.............

Still can't believe this is such a major issue and that there are no apps / wdigets to do this, though did come across one potential one where you might be able to turn the phone off, but there was a caveat that it might not work and that you would have to do a factory reset etc
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Yeah, as noted above, I misunderstood originally, sorry.

Then you can change your forwarding. settings > call > call forwarding > voice call. Activate "always forward", and put in your voice mail number for your carrier. It should be the same number as the three other forwarding options below it. Same menu options to disable it when you want to turn it off.

Call forwarding is built into the OS, so probably no one saw the need to build an app for it... Just guessing though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baylisg:
ctomgee thanks that's the way to go - bit of a faff to do but worth it for some peace & quiet away from the phone, and I know I could have ignored the call, but can never bring myself to do that

Just found a little app that does it..........

Thanks again - sorted !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
No prob.

FYI, you can create a shortcut directly to the call fowarding settings menu too. Just download "Any Cut" from the market. Or if you're using Launcher Pro as your homescreen launcher, you can do this with a long press on the homescreen. It's a bit of a pain to find stuff you want to shortcut to, but you only have to do it once this way.

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:58 PM ----------

Or you could do that. :D

I honestly didn't even check the market for an app for it. I just assumed there wasn't one because you said there wasn't one.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtyson:
Hi can you tell me which app you found please? I've tried several but can't switch on BT with any of them once in flight mode. I want to do exactly what you do in the gym! Thanks!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dexter_nlb:
HTC seems to have launched a tegra3 device (indavur (misspelled on purpose)), and since we are many that waited for htc to make their tegra move, so we could get their "frontend", and now its finally happening.

a leak has seen the www some days ago, and it might be coming to a device near you. :)

anyways they say its 720p, so im assuming 1366x720 and not 1280x800 like we got, so graphics will probably need resizing but i think solutions exists for that.

anyways, lets hope it appears! (i am personally happy with htc sense, so im eager to get it and already got a flyer here as well)

Can't wait for CM9 for it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] scataldo721:
i would love sense on the prime!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Phone Sense on tablets doesn't make any sense.

Even if someone ports it (not too much of a problem actually) it won't be usable.

The Sense UI doesn't scale well and is fitted to

one

specific

resolution

and

screen size

.

Scaling it up just looks awkward.

People shouldn't get their hopes up, it won't be the thing you expect.

Maybe we can port Tablet Sense from the HTC Vertex (aka. HTC Quattro), but that's still far away.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
They actually are announcing a Teg3 tablet (the Vertex, formerly Quattro) on 2/27 at an HTC press conference at MWC. It's supposed to be available in March. That ROM would need a lot less tinkering than one from a phone.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Wow awesome. I love sense. As far as the phone goes, it's probably my next phone if it comes out on Sprint. I'm a tegra3 believer now since my Prime.

HTC + tegra3 = awesomeness!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
**** sense it sucks it takes away from the true beauty of android! Hey well Atleast Google has that new thing where it has to have an option to disable all of the themes the manufacturer uses
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Nope, you missunderstood something there. There won't be an option to disable Sense/TouchWiz etc.

OEMs are only forced to include the stock themes,

so 3rd party apps can use those themes and look the same on every rom

This has

nothing

to do with customizations like the Sense UI.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Awhh that's lame :( they should have to have that option!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dexter_nlb:
you should get HTC Endeavor then, i might just in 6 months time when its launched in europe.

anyways the rom is tegra3 based , and from my experience with previous tegra roms , the tegra platform offers alot of options for porting between devices just like between the different htc platforms.

m_deejay has alot of experience from the htc platform, and im sure the virtouus team might just jump back on the tegra wagon soon.

about this build,

since we got no custom kernel, my options for changing scripts (init.rc) is limited and i will simply try this out on a tegra2 device first.

the framework require a different bootclasspath which i think a hijack script is needed for to fix it, if no custom kernel can be installed?

little OT,

why are blob's available on transformer(1), but not on "prime"? is it the sbk key that blocks kernel compiles?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Sounds like bloatware to me ;) then if it don't run fast or smooth or good, people will try to blame tegra3 for it....they can keep it. Its a good look for phones and some of their Widgets look cool. If anything ill take the Widgets. They can keep the bloat UI.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zelendel:
Ok guys first let me say that swearing has no place on the forum. Second it is well known that Sense needs to have the HTC framework files so it only runs on HTC devices. This is why it is not ported to alot of other devices other then HTC devices.

Guide to Replacing Low Res Icons for Amazon Carousel:

1. Download the Following Program (APK Manager):

Windows : (4.9)

http://www.multiupload.com/GXW01G6URJ

Linux : (4.3)

http://www.multiupload.com/7XEQYT3FUH

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695701

2.Install Java JDK

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

3. Place the apks for the programs you want to change the icons for in

/apk_manager_4.9/place-apk-here-for-modding/

4. Run Script.bat

5. Type 22 and then chose the apk you would like to edit, once that is done then next use option 1 to extract the apk

6. Browse over to the project folder and look for your extracted apk

7. Now head into

res/drawable-mdpi/ and locate the icon.

*Note* Some APKs do not have this folder, the icon may also be located in

res/drawable/ or

res/drawable-hdpi

8. Go online and find a high resolution icon, then use photoshop or any image editor to cleanup and resize the icon to 192x192

9. Once you have the hi res version of the icon go ahead and replace the lower resolution one.

10. In APK Manager, choose option 3 (Zip apk),

then option 2 (Regular apk <Removes signature for re-signing>)

11. Once that competes it will take you back to the main menu of APK Manager, Now choose option 4 (Sign apk <Dont do this if its a system apk>)

12. If everything was successful you should now see two apks in your modding folder

13. Take the signed version of the apk and adb push it to your device, dropbox it, or copy to kindle using usb cable

14. Uninstall version if already installed and then install your modified version.

(Trying to install over a installed version results in a failure for me)

15. Icon should be nice and high res!

hi, I am a new user for Kindle Fire HD, and i tried to follow the same routine to mod the Dolphin Browsers app to get a clear carousel icon.

after i change 1 icon in the apk to 256x256, and install it again, sth strange happened.

The dolphin browser icon NEVER shows again in the Carousel.....

It never shows up again after use....

does anyone have clues that how can I make that icon appear on my carousel again?

i have tried to reinstall the original apk , newer version apk, rebooting many times, but still not appear after use.....

thanks in advance!

Update: Found a solution to this. Tried to kill the "launcher" service by a task managing app, (AirDroid) thinks any of these app will do, and guess even the official "force stop" button under the application menu might work also.

After that, when the launcher restart, Icons showing properly! Thanks for the Guide!
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Deleted member 4859884:
This is a great thread, now got high-res icons for most of my apps, some are hard to find images for or just don't have any decent ones to use, mainly found that to be games, also I've found replacing & rebuilding/signing some apps have a really negative affect on them, games such as Riptide GP boot up slower or some just don't load, Cut the Rope won't play it's intro video etc.

Come across this as well - developer.amazon.com/sdk/fire/cx-guidelines.html

Amazon recommends 425x425 for the KFHD 7" carousel image, that's what size I've been using & most look really nice & crisp depending on the original image quality, 256x256 I found too pixelated on the carousel but maybe that's just me :)

If anyone want's them I've zipped up my images I've used on my KFHD 7", not a huge amount by any means but could be helpful to some.

Most of the images are resized from 512x512 to 425x425 PNG so look great on the KFHD, a very small number are lower resolution (256x256) due to their being no higher quality versions available on the internet that I could find.

rghost.net/42367507

Also ImageTuner is a pretty decent program to resize/convert images in bulk to different sizes etc.
