[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Havoqq:
Hi there.

Here's what happened so far: Bought my Prime appr. 4 weeks ago, upgraded to ICS out of the box, never rooted. 1.5 weeks ago my tablet started to just switch off several times a day. I had to wait for a few minutes before I could reboot if I didn't plug in the power cord (no, the battery was fine; > 80%). Last weekend my Prime finally gave up and wouldn't even take a charge. I couldn't turn it on, no haptic feedback, no signs of charging (aka dead power LED). The power supply is fine, my dock would charge as it is supposed to do.

I was trying basically everything I could read of, power button for 30 seconds, vol down+pwr button, reset button with a paper clip ... I left it on power supply for two days straight, no charging going on. Essentially, it's a paper weight and I never did anything to it like fishy apps, rooting, modding. Just your regular user.

So I contacted Tech Support today and they told me to have it picked up. I'm waiting for the confirmation mail and a pickup time right now. Will keep you posted, just in case somebody is reading this :).

C1OKAS serial, ICS 4.0.3, .11 firmware.

Hi,

if you live in Germany, your Prime is going to be send to Asus Service Center in Czech Republic. I sent my Prime for RMA at 2012/01/09 and still waiting for it to be returned....

Regards,

Pletwal
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Havoqq:
First update!

My Prime will be picked up tomorrow by UPS and get shipped there:

Wistron InfoComm (Czech), s.r.o.

ASUS Service

K Letisti 1792/1

Slapanice

CZ

Apparently, there's no repair facility in Germany.

Edit: Just saw pletwal's reply. He was right :).

Edit 2: My RMA number starts with "CZ". Hint hint?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
Same here in DK, they are sent same place.

Mine is also bought from Amazon DE..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pletwal:
when did you send yours?

is your Prime already repaired and sent back to you?

Regards,

pletwal
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
.. I was only replying that also from DK they will send it to CZ.

Mine is not sent yet... waiting for next DE firmware.

This should may improve WiFi/BT issue.. if not it will be sent.

Has anybody RMAed the Prime for WiFi and BT issue, and got it back fixed from Wistron InfoComm repair center?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] justsoso8:
It's said the reason why networklocation can not work on my phone(ZTE N780 Froyo) is becuase its sharedUserId="android.uid.system". so it need to be signed using the same key used by other system apks.

Is it possible to make a networklocation.apk, which can be used without re-signuature, so it can be used on every machine, the same as ohere apks inside GMS?

btw, I'm using the GMS downloaded from wiki page of CM titled "Latest Version/Google Apps"
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] justsoso8:
more than 200 viewed with none reply. is my suggest totally wrong or there is existing solution for this issue?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] justsoso8:
My latest idea is to sign all related apks by myself(Framework-res.apk, apks inside /system/app like settings.apk and so on, and Networklocation.apk).

I need to first put all apks inside /sdcard, then ssh to the phone, and move all signed apks to proper position, and set permission.

Cause there's no recovery rom on this phone, I'm worry about the method to replace all system apks on the fly. I googled this idea, and it seems someone else has done it before (I'm sorry I can not post outside links limited by xda, it's a page titled "replace-system-apkapp-on-android.html" in the site polytn.blogspot.com/2010/07/). I can not read the whole page from within china.

Would you please send the whole page to me? or give me your suggestion?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shredman:
Hi

i have rooted my girlfriends new galaxy s plus phone, installed FeaMod 1.2 and the latest Gingerbread Stockrom I9001XXKPU. So fine so good. The phone is running well, very good battery live and thanks to feamod the option to make a complete imagebackup of the phone.

the only disadvantage is the android modification from samsung. If I compare the samsung android usability with my htc desire, samsung sucks.

no nice clock and weather widgets for homescreen available like htc

the contact manager is very basic and looks cheap.

no chance to move google contacts to google groups on the phone. you need a computer to do this.

no widget to place contacts with pictures for smart dialing to the screen

lockscreen vertical unlocking is suboptimal

is there a way to modify the galaxy with a custom rom like htc desire with, for example, a Leedroid Rom? which custom roms are recommendable ?

where can I find a contact app like htc contacts ? I wan't nearly the same look and feel on the samsung galaxy like my HTC Desire. Is it possible ?

Regards,

Frank

Hi,

first of all welcome to the SGS+ community, we are pretty alone here :D.

Sadly there are only a few developer trying to port something for our phone.

We don't have any AOSP rom (no CM, MIUI and so on).

All our custom ROM are stock rom with modifications.

There is currently a CM 7 port in work but it will take a lot of time to finish it.

I would recommend you to have a look at the I9001 (SGS+) Android development forum, there are some sticky threads about modifications.
[General Questions and Answers] mike_desire:
Hi,

Since I am a noob and do not have privileges to post on Dev forums, I open this thread here ... not sure it is the right thing to do

First, let me explain what I did before asking questions.

1) I rooted my HTC Desire using Cyanogen procedure

-> Successfully install ClockworkMod recovery + S-OFF

2) I flashed BCM b0.3.6_1 ROM successfully

Results :

So far, the ROM is working pretty fine (great job ! .. so cool to have ICS on my HTC desire ). However, I noticed that Gmail was not there and I had to install it manually (downloaded apk here if it can help some ... oups not allowed yet ... can I give this link in the post ?). After that, mail synchronization is ok. I had also the isssue related to Google calendar synchronization and it took me some time to realize that you have to follow the procedure that is following the fix link (sorry but not allowed to post links yet)

Note about the procedure : Since I do not have exchange account, I did it with anoter gmail account and it works fine.

For now, I did not find any major issues but still looking

Now, I have two questions :

1) Is there a way to disable haptic feedback ?

2) Once I got calendar sync fixed, I had to enable lockscreen PIN security. Is there a way to disable that ... it seems to be something that admin privileges.

I know that this ROM is still under development so sorry in advance if my questions are stupid.

Thanks for helping
[General Questions and Answers] mike_desire:
Hi,

I just observed trying to use the camera that it crashes after taking one or two pictures.

I thought that the camera was stable on this release. It does not look like.

Step to reproduce :

1) Just launch camera

2) Take one or tw o pictures

Results :

Camera application crashes and apex viewer/launcher too. The only thing to do is to reboot. Taken pictures are recorded on SD.

Can anyone tell me if he has seen the same issue ?

Thx
[General Questions and Answers] mike_desire:
My mistake, I just checked on the main thread for this rom and have seen that it is clearly mentionned that camera is still unstable ...

[HTC Desire S] wuhtzu:
Hi everyone

I have a HTC Desire S with CyanogenMod 7.1 Stable and ClockworkMod as recovery. Everything is great except for my stock htc desire s headset.

When I insert the headset the headset is registered (showing a small icon with headset+mic) but the microphone is not working. It is not working in calls and not working in other apps (for example Sound Recorder which comes with CGM). The internal microphone in the telephone however remains active during calls. The microphone is working hardware wise, I use the headset with my laptop.

I am aware of this topic: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...headset microphone__fromsearch__1#entry237827

But I have a different phone and I am already using CGM 7.1 and just using 7.1 hasn't fixed my problem

Are anyone aware of any fixes / workarounds for this? Maybe some nightly builds which fixes it or similar?

Side note:

It also turns out that only one earplug is working (like mono sound) when using the headset in a call. Both works perfectly when using the Music-app wich comes with CGM.

Best regards

Wuhtzu
[HTC Desire S] wuhtzu:
Could it be that the htc desire s stock headset uses a proprietary driver only included with htc sense or similar?

Best regards

Wuhtzu
[HTC Desire S] baji240588:
I have same problem with u dude, but sometimes headset n mic work fine. I don't have any idea 4 that.

If that happened I just reboot my desire s n hope the problem is gone.

Sorry 4 my bad english
[HTC Desire S] XKanoX:
this thing involves alot of confusion, since also i have cm7 and when i insert the stock earphones it appears as regular earphones with no mic icon but it does work though i think
[HTC Desire S] wuhtzu:
Could you be persuaded to try and report the result back? Plug in the stock headset with mic, note which icon is displayed (earphones or headset), try the headset in an app (Sound Recorder for example) and try the headset in a phone call.
[HTC Desire S] XKanoX:
im sorry for not being able to try now, but as i recall it works fine, just the icon that appears is for earphones with no mic, although i have the stock headset plugged in , but when i reboot with the headset plugged in the icon displayed is the one for a headset (with mic icon)

probably just a rom issue, not a big deal since the mic works
[HTC Desire S] wuhtzu:
The problem persisted for me with the Cyanogenmod 7.1. I however never tried to reflash 7.1, which some people claimed would fix the problem. So that I will never know for sure.

I do however know that CGM 7.2 RC1 is here now and that upon first boot after 7.2 flashing my stock headset works as expected.

The icons ect. are the same as described vigorously in the original post. Only difference is that now the microphone actually works.

Thumbs up to 7.2 and the CGM team!
[HTC Desire S] hamidoo:
SOLVED for me!

Not sure if it is the same issue, as sometimes when I plug the headset only the headphones icon appears (the one without a mic icon) and sometimes the headset icon appears (the icon WITH a mic) and the mic works.

IT IS SOLVED now! turned out that when I plug the headset socket SLOWLY the mic DOES NOT WORK, but when I plug it FAST ENOUGH the mic works perfectly and the headset icon appears.

Hope this would help you out :)

I've noticed this too on several new roms jelly time and aokp jellybean rom ports
[G2 and Desire Z General] noneabove:
For those of you who like the gingerbread recent app list, I FOUND SOMETHING SIMILAR!

Pull out keyboard and hit FN TAB! Enjoy!!! :D

Note: Acts very similar to the windows version of alt tab. :)

Edit: Clarity, this is in Ice Cream Sandwich, where we normally do NOT have this menu while holding home :)

Also the picture from taz on second page:
[G2 and Desire Z General] virtualflyer:
Doesn't do anything to me... but isn't it the menu which appears when you keep home pressed?
[G2 and Desire Z General] noneabove:
Hmm maybe only certain ROMs have it implemented! I'm on Taz's 1.1 and as soon as I get a hold of a camera or figure out how to take a Screen Shot of it while it's happening (doesn't work the conventional way sadly) I'll upload what it looks like :P
[G2 and Desire Z General] C.Flat:
Got one
[G2 and Desire Z General] .A.J.:
That has been a part of android for as long as I can remember. You can do that at any time (on any screen, in any app) by just holding the home button. It's convenient. Congratulations on finding it and enjoy!
[G2 and Desire Z General] noneabove:
Uhm, not exactly, this is in GINGERBREAD but were talking about in ice cream sandwich where we don't normally have that view, just the view as seen in the second post :)

How did you get that list in not-landscape btw ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] C.Flat:
Obviously, but in ICS its completely different. You can only access this by using the keyboard. Its in portrait because I was using an app developed by scumbags who don't support landscape mode
[G2 and Desire Z General] C.Flat:
Canada Post app doesn't support landscape mode, so it stayed in portrait even with the keyboard open.
[G2 and Desire Z General] biohazrd51:
Actually the code is still in ICS I think. If you check the forums Themes and Apps, second page for a post by shadow android, there is a post concerning using the search button for ICS task switcher. The code still in the android policy jar uses the old switcher unless you change it in PhoneWindowManager.

EDIT: Point being, if you change the keylayout files without changing the code in that file, you still get the GB app switcher.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jmaciak:
nice dude!

that's great feature, didn't know about it before. however, for me it seems to work only with right fn and tab, but that's good. if you keep fn pressed and only click tab, you get real alt-tab-like behaviour like in windows :) perfect for keyboard multitasking :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] xT4Z1N4TRx:
It works :-)
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
my g2 has done that since day one just hold down menu... am I missing something?
[G2 and Desire Z General] noneabove:
Yes, on ICS the multitask feature is very different. Holding home gives you the picture in the 2nd post, whereas fn and tab gives the old gingerbread-looking one.

And nice taz :) I think you should throw a feature in that holding search gives that menu or something (making it an option if you can) for those people who prefer the old one :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
totally missed the second pic, I think it didn't load the first time around lol

This is the most misleading title IMO =/

Changed it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] C.Flat:
Why not long press of the menu button? Long pressing the search is already used for voice actions
[G2 and Desire Z General] otariq:
Is this only for the desire z? I have a g2 and there's no fn key only alt, menu and shift
[G2 and Desire Z General] Shadow-Nexus:
I can confirm that this works on the G2 by pressing the alt key then the .com /www. Key

Take a look
[G2 and Desire Z General] otariq:
Hmm not sure why its not working for me. I'm on andromadus v12
[G2 and Desire Z General] johrie:
Working for me on Andromadus v12. Did you hold down the FN button?
[G2 and Desire Z General] otariq:
Is fn the same thing as alt on g2? i tried both ways, first holding down alt then pressing the www key and just pressing alt then pressing www key neither methods seem to work. It just launches the browser when i press www key which i thought v12 actually removed the shortcut and replaced it as a typing key. i did a full wipe too when installing v12 so i doubt its cuz of that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] johrie:
Maybe this only works on the DZ cant think of anything else :/

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Atlas.rouge:
Hey guys,

Alright, so I was on my stock rooted ROM and saw an OTA come in. I download and apply the update, but it freezes and stops the update. So I unrooted, and tried again. Still failed. So then I remember I didn't disable SafeStrap, and I go and re-root, disable SafeStrap, unroot again, and THEN try the update. Still failed.

I did delete some of the games that came with the phone (while unrooted; I didn't remove system files to my knowledge). What do you guys think the problem could be? I'd really like improved signal connectivity and eventually ICS. And Fastbooting didn't work for me the last time I used it for some reason (although I wasn't on stock ROM at the time - could that have done it?)

Thanks!

Edit: Tried factory reset, did NOT work. Looks like SBF/Fastboot is my only option. What happens if it doesn't work? I'm on stock and unrooted and everything. Maybe I just need to install the missing files? I think I only deleted thinks like NFL 12 and the similar games that were ALLOWED to be deleted. SO blown right now...ugh.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aktrazer:
It probably was the bloatware you removed. Before the update came down, I fastbooted back to make sure there weren't any issues with the update. Several people have said that with bloatware removed, the update will fail.

How did you unroot? The only way I've done it is to fastboot it (just to be on the safe side).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Atlas.rouge:
I used some app called Ginger Unroot from the market. Surprisingly, it actually worked - SU operations (including SafeStrap apk tasks, SetCPU, etc) ceased function due to a lack of root. I almost feel like VZW could just reset the phone because it is TECHNICALLY not rooted and is still not accepting the OTA. Also, I have a Mac, so it's a hassle to have to borrow a friend's PC every week and try again. But I'll see. There's absolutely NO WAY to fastboot via a Mac, right?

(Also - would a factory reset put the missing apps back and allow, then, for an OTA?)

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tech_head:
Things like Safestrap can prevent OTA update.

Safestrap changes the boot structure.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Atlas.rouge:
I removed SafeStrap though. Like, it is NO LONGER on my phone, either in bootup OR in apk form. So it shouldn't be affecting the process anymore, right?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Atlas.rouge:
Sorry for double post - I found a FastBoot utility for Mac that MIGHT work. Not 100% on it though, but everyone who's used it has indicated it has worked for them.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ViaCapita13:
You say you are unrooted now. Have you rooted before? If so what modifications did you make?

After a very similar experience I finally an updating and it appears that the update hasn't failed. My two previous attempts failed after I unrooted (protected using OTA Rootkeeper), disable Safestrap, and reloaded my preinstall files. If you have ever used Safestrap or done anything to tamper with the preinstall files, webtop, or the bloat apps you will not be able to update.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Atlas.rouge:
See, that's my problem...I got rid of apps like the blockbuster app and Madden 12...you're telling me, essentially, that I'm screwed because VZW was stupid enough to make "vital" apps deletable? Also, I deleted those apps while non-rooted. How's that for ironic...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Board373:
How did you reload the pre install files? Where did you get the files?

I'm having same issue on xt926.

Thank you very much for the help!

Hopefully this is the best place to post such a question -

Is it possible to use the Amazon Kindle App Store in the UK? I can download free books from Amazon however when I try getting something like Angry Birds, I get the "the amazon app store is not available in your region" error.

Any ideas?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
app store only in the us ...

workaround is vpn to us or use android market (should be the easier one)
[Kindle Fire General] jayc89:
Managed to use a web proxy to "buy" the apps from the Store and then download them as normal from the kindle.

Thanks!
[Kindle Fire General] Scaevola:
Having only VPN does not work.

For Appstore, you need to have a US issued credit card and actually you don't need any VPN or proxy to download apps.
