Hello All. Me Again.

I bring to you a tool that I made to setup source directories for all AOSP branches as well as Cyanogenmod brances. This way, you set the source you want to DL then it takes care of the rest. What I do is take the repo_sync script and allow cron to run it every night. Neat little tool.

So here you go. To Use it, simply dl the zip, unzip it to whatever dir you want, then run "./init_repos" and follow the prompts.

DOWNLOAD

Thanks for your support. If there is anything I can do to make this tool run better, please either PM me or post it in this thread.

If you want to donate to me and help me pay bills, please hit this link below;)

[Android Software Development] atc3030:
I should mention it requires repo script to be in your path
[Android Software Development] Perka:
Hi, just testing your scripts, as Im a Linux noob ;)

Got this error

.repo_sync_log: No such file or directory
./repo_sync: line 19: repo: command not found

but Receiving objects as I type, will get back to you.

Thx :)

EDIT: Only synced kernel source from cm, rest of the folders are empty :(

EDIT2: added a screenshot.
[Android Software Development] atc3030:
I am working on another project right now that will incorporate this better. However I do not know how long it will take.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] czerdrill:
I have a microsd card and a microsd adapter however when i insert the adapter with microsd inside into the transformer prime dock, its not recognized. Is the tablet incapable of recognizing a card that's within an adapter? Does it have to be a straight SD card for it to be recognized? Thanks!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slayer69:
Worked just fine for me....just tested it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] czerdrill:
Just plug n play? Weird, tried two different adapters and two different microsds and none worked. Is there a way to force it to search for the card?

EDIT Nevermind worked fine after a restart.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hitekdroid:
Maybe its wrong format? I now have a 64gb prime because of 2 16gb cards i had lieing around
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
The adapter is transparent to a computer, both types of cards have the same pinouts. No device out there needs special support for those adapters.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
Aye, maybe the adapter is just faulty or has a damaged pin that pisses off the driver.

I've had no problems with any MicroSD, SD, or MicoSD+SD adapter I've tried.

Which battery saver do you guys prefer? I've been using juice defender for a while not but its been slacking so im just wondering what YOU prefer to use to make your battery last longer!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Gahh Its Lee:
I'm curious about this as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] VR32:
i've seen alot of folks like Juice Defender. there are 3 variants, free and two paid versions which are smarter and more proactive. you can read about them in the market. i'm just sharing that, but i have only tried the free version, and it hasn't done too much for me, but i'm probably not what some would call a power user. check out the details at the market.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
I don't use any..... no task killer either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] afrojoc:
Does your battery last pretty long?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MonFrayr:
I used Juice Defender Pro for several months and finally did some testing. In my case, the program was using as much "juice" as it was saving. YMMV depending on how you use your phone. I don't use a task killer either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] afrojoc:
Hm. Okay screw task killers from now on lol. Lets see how that goes for me. I have a bad habit of wanting to kill everything
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
I get about 4 hrs of screen on Tim with 16 total hrs and 15-20% remaining.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xstayxposix:
Yeah, I don't use any. No task killers either.

I tried Juice Defender back on my captivate, because I started to get horrendous battery life on that, it didn't help at all. I even had the paid version. If you're just looking to save battery, UC and UV is the way to go. I UC to 1GHz and UV quite a bit. Just flashed a newer version of MIUI and a new version of Init.Doh, so we'll see how this is. Most I got with MIUI+Siyah+Init.Doh was around 27 hours, with eleven hours of screen on time, only once though, must've been a good charge. :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jazzboyrules:
Do you use any custom battery saving tweaks using Llama or Tasker?

Right now I am testing out Turkbey v32 on DD 1/30/2012 and KH7. With few Llama tweaks, am able to get about 17 hrs with about 2.5hrs screen on time, 2 hrs talktime and about 1.5 hrs of podcast.

Sent from myphone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ryude:
Task killers work if you have a rogue app that refuses to let go of processor time and memory resources. Otherwise, let android do its job and manage its resources.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] afrojoc:
I've found that Easy Battery Saver works likw a charm in saving battery. And its free.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Karashta:
Undervolting works fine enough for me. No need for a juice defender style app. I also keep my screen on a low brightness setting unless watching a video and turn off wifi and data when not using them. Other then that...I just make sure I'm not running an app in the known battery drainers thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Alucardis666:
Juice defender does a pretty good job.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sk8ordie0:
Im running voltage control with the illusion ROM and getting crazy good battery life. But i have tryed juice defender pro and even with it all tweaked out it still was burning more battery than not having it. At that time i think i was running coz or tasks ics'd out. I must say a simple task manager is more efficient on my end. But also a ROM that goes in deep sleep really helps on the battery (little off subject!)

Hope it helps someone out there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJaxEmpire:
In my experience I've found that Juice Defender Ultimate with the extreme setting works well with GB. Manages the data connections well and goes well with using Autokiller (Task killer app). Ultimate is the paid version, and I get 48+ hours with average use (music, occasional wifi/3g, Calls). The free version (limited options) was better than nothing.

Anyway, I cant seem to get the same experience with ICS. It seems to be taking more juice than saving it. Anyone with any recommendations for this? I'm using an SGS2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Edgarhighman:
I used juice defender ultimate with advanced (my own personal preferences) settings - but unnamed 2.2.1 overrides JD no matter what I do. Maybe I'd do better with uninstall for now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ryude:
I did some testing with this app and it seems to work pretty good. It's not a big savings, but it helps people who are lazy. Turns off 3g/wifi/bluetooth/etc when you turn the screen off, which helps save a lot of battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] McCooler:
I tried juice defender but never saw any improvement in battery life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ymcmbforever:
Same here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] condor7272:
only with shostock 2 rom you could do something like that, and believe me Ive tried all of the roms
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Scrambo:
Back when I originally flashed shostock 1.9.2 with siyah w.X.11, I consistently was able to make a full charge last more than 2 days. I do believe I under-clocked to 1ghz but no UV. Also, if I had to guess my screen time was around 3 hours?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jambajews:
^This, all the battery management apps I have tried have seemed to actually hurt my battery more then help it. Android seems to do just fine with battery life if left to it's own devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mattdm:
Tasker, if you're smart about it. The biggest help I've found is simply using it to turn off data when the screen is off, and turn it on when the screen is on.

Also, underclocking/undervolting with SetCPU.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] UNBOUND796:
I have the samsung galaxy s 4g. First off it can get into download mode, with the yellow triangle. Second, It's recognized in normal mode i.e., mass storage, samsung kies, media. Odin also recognizes it in normal mode as 0:COM. Though when starting in download mode windows tries to install it but fails and says usb not recognized. Also Odin no longer shows it as 0:COM. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
This is your first post. What are trying to do with ODIN can I ask?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Search the threads, this has been answered many times...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] UNBOUND796:
Well I updated my phone through Kies to 2.3 but I think it messed up so I'm trying to roll back my phone to 2.2 through Odin
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
It is not as easy as just using ODIN to flash back. Why do you think it is messed up?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] UNBOUND796:
I've searched and can't find any answer to why it won't connect through download mode but will through the normal mode
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] UNBOUND796:
After updating to 2.3 the top portion of my screen stopped working. everything else on the phone works.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
The answer IS out there, I found it when I first started... But, here's the spoon:

1 Start Odin, plug in phone while it is off and battery out

2 hold the volume up/down buttons and insert battery

3 If Odin does not recognize phone then, reinstall the drivers

4 Repeat steps 1 and 2
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
Can you see enough of the screen to root your phone? I would recommend rooting it, downloading sgs kernel flasher, downloading a cwm kernel, flashing it, then reflashing through cwm stock gb and see if it fixes it. It might be a hardware issue though. Have yet to hear somebody say their screen stopped working after using kies.

Use the first link in my signature for detailed directions, links and downloads.

You don't need to **** with ODIN. I recommend my method. No ODIN :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
It's a bad download... Happened to me when I first updated to 2.3.6 via kies...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] UNBOUND796:
well that's the problem. since it's 2.3 it won't let me root. I've tried trust me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
What won't let you root? SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse? I just did it today.

Make sure you are patient with it.

---------- Post added at 07:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

Just dawned on me... You need to make sure you have enabled USB Debugging Mode for SuperOneClick to work.

On the device, go to Settings > Applications > Development and enable USB debugging

hi,guys

I just see a post about how to apply usa ota on other area tf201.

It is a little hard.

I have a simple method from chinese bbs.

And it seems the sames as tf101.

I cant post on development area. So post here.hope somebody see it.

What we need do is just download 4.03 firmware on asus offical site.

Here we use a taiwan firmware. The file we get is named TW_epaduser9_4_2_13UpdateLauncher.zip.

Unzip it, we will get an other zip.

Rename it to EP201_SDUPDATE.zip

And put it to microsd root. Sd card format must be fat32.

Put it into tf201,and power off.

Be sure tf201 have battry over 50%

Push vol- and power button both until see same samll message on top left

And push vol+ in 5 seconds.

And just waiting,it will auto reboot twice.

Then just enjoy ics.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Awesome88:
Hey guys

After having a look at some custom roms for my Xperia Play R800i, I decided to try and install Cyanogenmod 9.0. After a long and stressful ordeal, I managed to root the device, install Clockworkmod Recovery, and flash the rom. I wasn't happy with this rom, so I flashed ICX. After being dissatisfied with this also, I decided to return to the stock rom, using Flashtool and Xperia_Play_Release_Generic_UK.ftf. When I went to update to Android 2.3.4 using the Sony Ericsson PC Companion software, it said that the phone contained modified software which could not be updated. Thinking this was an error, I re-flashed the ftf file, then tried to download the update through the Software Update option in the About Phone settings menu. The update seemed to be going fine, but soon after it began, the phone simply switched off. Now, when I press the power button, the phone vibrates, but does nothing else. It doesn't even get past the black screen. I viewed some similar problems on the Sony Ericsson support site, and they all advised use of the Update Service program. Once again, I was told that my phone contained modified software and therefor couldn't be updated. I also tried to flash the ftf again, but my phone is still as unresponsive as ever.

I imagine that the problem is to do with the software that is currently installed on the phone, and that it needs to be removed/replaced for me to switch it on. However, I can't know for sure because I can't switch it on.

Sorry for the long post, but I'm desperate to get my phone working again. Any and all suggestions would be useful. Thank you in advance :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuckM:
Ya... not supposed to FOTA on unlocked bootloader, it bricks you. As you've seen SEUS doesn't like locked bootloaders so the only way to use it again is to relock the bootloader. Unfortunately in order to do this you need to flash the relocker, which is a .ftf, which you can't do because your phone isn't recognized by flashtool. I dunno, you don't have a lot of options here, but lets lay them out:

1. Get into flash mode and recover via either a .ftf or use it to relock your bootloader so you can use SEUS

2. Get into fastboot and boot or flash a kernel or recovery. You could try flashing a CM7 kernel and installing its .zip

3. If nothing else works your only other option is to turn here:

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xRegrets:
This is what happens when you use official Sony update service with an unlocked bootloader.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Awesome88:
Sorry to be a pain, but do you have a link to the specific .ftf I need to relock the bootloader?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Awesome88:
Actually, ignore my last post. I Googled it and found the file quite easily. I flashed it with Flashtool and everything is working perfectly. Thank you so much for your help BuckM. You saved my phone :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d31b0y:
Here you go. I wouldn't bother relocking though. Just flash the ftf file that you want.

You will find them here.

Beaten too it by OP :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuckM:
d31b0ys right, you don't really NEED to relock your bootloader, its just an option to get SEUS working again. That being said keep in mind you can reunlock your bootloader again at any time using the same unlock code as before, just try to be a little more careful ;)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDM inc:
did you try to pull out the battery then put it back, then hold the search buttion (wile the phone is still off) then put in the usb cable? if done correct your power buttion will turn blue. then download a stock .tft for your phone and flash with flashtool. this unbricked my phone:)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mercatorn:
How much percent does your battery go down over night when you sleep? When i first got my tab it literally went down at most 2% and usually it was 1% or none at all.

After using it for 3 months and having a ton of APKs installed on it. I just installed Galaxy task's fat 14 and my tab died while i was sleeping, and I went to bed when it was around 18%

how is everyone's elses battery consumption during the 7 or 8 hrs of sleep?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanHacker:
dude. you answered your question yourself. "After using it for 3 months and having a ton of APKs installed on it." you have apps running in the background and who knows which one is going crazy. i have apps on my tab and at most i'll lose 3% while sleeping for 8-10 hours. you issue has nothing to do with the rom. it has everything to do with whatever app is going haywire.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mercatorn:
I wasn't trying to blame it on your rom, its great, I'll investigate the apps/games i installed.

but i was using your task v12 for several weeks without this happening. Maybe something happened to my settings when i upgraded i guess. Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanHacker:
I know you weren't bro. I was just explaining how with a lot of apps this issue can happen relatively easy. You just gotta try and figure out which app is causing this and then I'm sure you won't have an issue anymore.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] media_11:
go to settings>about>battery use to see which app is using more of the battery.

you can also check to make sure your wifi sleeps when your tablet is off.

I am using task rom also and I don't have any battery issues. Before I go to bed, I always turn wifi off and kill all the apps thats running in the background and my battery never drains more then 3%. I hope this helps.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chibs-:
ot: how long does it take to fully charge the Galaxy Tab? i charged my gt for the first time yesterday and i wondered it took half of the day to reach the 100 percent ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mercatorn:
Thanks for the tips.

For the official charger that gets bundled i can usually charge fully in what feels like 3 hours.

Via USB on the non official it feels like i need 6 hours
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mercatorn:
Is there a difference between wifi sleep and OFF? I know there are some market apps that turn the wifi off based on certain conditions but i don't know if that saves more than wifi sleep
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmmcd:
I put my tab in "Airplane Mode" when I sleep, and kill all active applications. I found this usually drops 1% or so when sleeping for 8 hours. The airplane mode shuts off all radios.

I have a button on my home screen that toggles the airplane mode, so I just tap that before hitting the power button.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsafety:
This thread is very useful. I have been noticing a lot of battery drain while the Tab is in sleep mode. Changing the WIFI setting so it was turned off when the Tab screen is off made a big difference.

When I check the battery use info, one of the biggest power users is something called "Mediaserver". Does anyone know what this is. I am not sure if this is something running in the background or just displays as a result of viewing a video recently. If it is a background app, can it be safely disabled? Should it be disabled?

BTW, for those of us who are using Task's ROM, it is really easy to enter airplane mode. Just press the power button to bring up a dialogue box that allows various options including Airplane mode, reboot, recover, etc. This is a very useful feature.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EricSS619:
Hi, Ive been trying to find this info for weeks and am coming up with nothing.

Lets say a dev takes google backup out of their rom.

Im talking about the thing that runs when you first start up a newly flashed phone and it asks if you want to backup with google.

It then proceeds to install your apps you had installed, as well as your wallpaper and also your saved WiFi passwords and networks(which is what I love it for).

I tried replacing the googbackuptransport.apk and .odex. Apparently thats not enough though(Im not even sure if those are what make it work).

So my question is, what do I need to do to get google backup back onto a ROM thats had it removed?

I posted this in the EVO 3d section, but havent got a good answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
So what do you guys think? Would you use webOS on your shiny gnex if it was made available?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VegUnited:
No
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Colemak:
I'd definitely try it out for kicks, webOS was a great OS. The only problem is it was great. It's outdated now with a huge lack of apps. There's already an open source project with Android, and it's backed by a huge company. WebOS will be purely community driven with people working on it in their spare time or just for proof of concepts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
Same here. I'd say it has great potential. Now that it is opensource more developers will consider it as a viable app platform.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gtab55:
NO...I had a Pre Plus since it launched. First things first, it did have potential, webOS that is, if only devs would focus on it to bring iOS and Android apps. Secondly, the phone itself made me hate webOS and I doubt I will ever consider going back to a webOS device/phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
WebOS was superb for its time. But the problem is it has not grown with new competitive features and additions like android and iOS has. Its been starved and abandoned, so it will never achieve parity with android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mr. Barlow:
I'd like to dualboot webOS, or even temporarily flash it. I never got to play with wOS, but i'd like to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccpotato:
no way

the maturity level is too far behind android.

webOS is awesome. but circumstances -- bad hardware & worse marketing --> low user base --> no apps -- doomed it.

sad story. i liked it a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ravynmagi:
I don't even use WebOS on my HP Touchpad, no way I'd put it on my Galaxy Nexus or any Android device.

The OS is nice, but without apps WebOS gets boring real quick. And I kinda like having home screens anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
ICS for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carne_Asada_Fries:
I wouldn't mind running a webos UI over android but webos by itself is a no from me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
I have an old phone I am not using that currently has an ICS rom on it, but if someone were to make a rom for it, I'd probably throw it on there to see what all the fuss is about webOS but more than likely remove it and put back ICS on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] android01:
I loled. That's like using a v dub engine in a space ship.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
No. Feature set is no longer competitive and app ecosystem is far behind.

That said, Android was in the same boat but I loved it and the G1 anyway. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
You know what would be great? If someone developed a way for android apps to run on webOS. Similiar to what BB is doing for the playbook. It wouldn't be perfect ofcourse, but still a nice compromise. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cosimoss:
If WebOS had two years more development then maybe but ICS is just light years away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aridon:
It wasn't the hardware lagging webos. Great concept very poor implementation which is why it failed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
Well that's the whole reason opensource webos is interesting: now it won't be limited to crappy hardware from palm and hp.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Adreno:
Is this a joke thread?

WebOS was good but its OLD.

Thats like asking if I'd like to have my bluray player hooked up to a CRT LMAO.

ICS is the lastest and greatest high end OS on a high end device. You don't mix new tech with old software haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
Come on... How long ago did HP Touchpad came out? 6 months ago?

And when the developers have the source they can improve it and make it much better.
