Hi,

Once you flash it turn your wifi on and open the Signal Boost app and tick to enable it. Hopefully a little green house will appear in your status bar and your signal strength will go to 0 bars and your calls and texts will be sent through your wireless network.

If you give it another try and it works, please let me know. Otherwise thanks for your help :)

Zip does not work. Tried installing application and libs manually and edited build prop, but still no joy.

I'm intrigued to see if this will work.

Hi

I was wondering if there was any weather widget which would stay on notification area (a bit iOS like) ...Did manage find a few apps which did it, but all of them need to have the temperature icon on my status bar, which i dont like....

is there any way i could get the weather in notification without adding on the status bar icon.!

any tips please?

After update Android on 4.0.2.A.0.62 my root wont work at all,i downloaded more root toolkits but seams non of one works.

Does any one have this problem and how to fix this???

Plz help and thanks ppl!!!:(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luiphilip:
Hope this will help you out:

1.Unzip firmware and put it in flashtool firmware (Drag and drop the firmware into the flash tool window). If you cannot drag and drop, extract firnware into the firmware folder located inside the flash tool application folder usually located at the program files folder.

2.Go to flashtool. Power off phone and connect USB cable while pressing volume down before connecting to PC usb port. You ll see green led (youre now in flash mode). Flash firmware (from the running flash window on the PC). Wait for setup complete and then boot up your phone.

3.Extract Doomlord root kitt .Before root make sure usb debugging is tick and display screen timeout at hp set to 10 or 30 minutes. Run runme.bat.check whether superuser is there. If yes, you have successfully rooted your phone, also you may want to check settings>about phone>build number (If your last two digits is reverted to 0.58 then things went well.

4.Now you must update to new firmware using update on air (OTA). In your phone, go to setting>about>software update. Download and install.

WARNING : DONT UPDATE USING PC COMPANION OR YOU WILL LOSE YOUR ROOT

5. After update.Unzip cwm install and run the second file script for wt19i.install-cmw2.cmd.This proses like the 3rd step. Make sure usb debugging mode and displays screen timeout set to 10min

And done...u have newer version root firmware + cwm without unlock bootloader.Thank to doomlord and nobodyAtall

The step i posted here is the same procedure i perfomed to root my phone since i don't want to unlock my boot loader.

Click Thanks, if my post was helpful to you.

Hey there,

I have two weeks old Xperia Active. I noticed that sometimes when I'm pressing screen whole background brightness changes, like gradient would disappeared. Most visible when using QWERTY, when pressing R or I, no occurance when pressing other keys. Since I haven't got access to any other Xperia Active I don't know whether it is natural behavior or some fault.

Thanks for replies in advance.

Since I'm not able to post youtube link here, please input into search bar phrase "Xperia Active possible screen issue".
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Johan-SonyXperiaSupport:
I have not heard of any other similar case. Could it be that you somehow block the sensor that adjust the screen brightness?

If you're sure that you not blocking the sensor you could try to run a software repair on the phone using PC Companion.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xperiaactive:
me too

Me too!

Also my experia has the same display issue.

I read also a review in which the tester says that autobrightness was slow and scattering...

But i want to know if the many other possessors of Xperia Active have the same problem o not, or if we are too sensible.

For example i hope that if i flash with cyanogen display became perfect!

Need answers!!!

XPERIA ACTIVE SCREEN ISSUE
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dumraden:
Yea i got this "issue" too. It reminds me of my Philips TV, where it adjust brightness depending on what's on the screen. If its dark, it gets brighter automatically, if i have a white window, on my desktop, then the brightness gets a little lower to make the white window seem less "annoying".

I think it's normal behaviour. If it bothers you so much... Then what about the light leaking softkeys at the bottom? :P
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lennie paz:
I just put an MKV movie on my SD card and played it using Dice Player. The picture is perfect but the sound is awful. It's very crackly through the speakers and through headphones. The sound is perfect when I play it on my PC though. Here are the audio specs of the movie:

Audio

ID : 2

Format : AAC

Format/Info : Advanced Audio Codec

Format version : Version 4

Format profile : LC

Format settings, SBR : Yes

Format settings, PS : No

Codec ID : A_AAC

Duration : 1h 50mn

Channel(s) : 6 channels

Channel positions : Front: L C R, Side: L R, LFE

Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz

Video delay : 1s 500ms
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
Use MX Player. Works great.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lennie paz:
I just tried it 2 seconds ago. It's a 1080p mkv and it's very choppy with MX Player.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tekara:
is the video using hardware acceleration? If so, all the players should be playing the video exactly the same, even the built in video player. As for the sound, you can use something like MX to use software decoding for the sound alone to correct the problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lennie paz:
Can you explain that in more detail? Are you saying to use Dice for the video and MX for the audio? How would i do that?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] songmeesay:
The problem is that Dice doesn't downmix AAC 5.1 to 2 channel (but does for AC3), and the LFE is pushing out making that crackling sound. I've emailed the dev, but no reply about it.

It does this with any file that has an audio track of AAC 5.1 no matter what container. I had a rip of Drive with AAC 5.1 and it crackled in Dice but you could skip/seek in the movie, and in other players it played with perfect audio except you couldn't seek in the movie.

If the sound sounds like a dying robot, then its not just the prime, as that happened with my Evo 3d as well.

Hi,

when applying your theme on CM7.2 KANGO (latest nightly), colors/background in application Tasker are out of control (just doesn't look so good anymore) + some settings does have BLACK text on GREY background (it's not very readable). And thanks for custom layouts, it works (my wife's WildFire almost looks and behave like my Galaxy S with ICS ;-) )
[HTC Wildfire S] m0jo52:
thx . awesome! :)
[HTC Wildfire S] ipodguitar:
I'm not sure about anything in tasker, I'll download the app now and look at the problems.

Its on the Wildfire S right, and if its not is it on a MDPI phone?
[HTC Wildfire S] ipodguitar:
Hey again,

Isnt it black-grey because you/your wife played with the theme settings?

Try changing things there, and it should work.

On default it all works for me.
[HTC Wildfire S] ipodguitar:
I have started creating a custom CM7 rom that will have all this pre-included, plus the crappy gallery removed and added quickpic.
[HTC Wildfire S] shaarky:
Hi, no, she wasn't playing with any settings, she better doesn't even touch it :-) Actually when applying any other theme, it's fine.Now she is on Cyanbread and it's totally ok. It's really Wildfire S. Don't know what could be the problem.... :confused:

Step 1 is not working

Hi,

Step 1 is not working for me :(:

"Put the .APK in the .ZIP on your sd card, and install it with a File manager (download on market, i recommend astro or ES)."

+ I have tried following :

- Moved the ICS_by_Z25.apk file to a normal folder in SD Card, installed, installs fine, but no changes.

- Moved the zipped folder ICS_by_Z25.zip, downloaded from the link to SD Card, installed the theme, installs fine, but no changes.

- Moved the ICS_by_Z25.apk file to unofficial-CM7-marvel-nigthly-02_03_2012.zip in SD Card, the CM version I'm using, installed, installs fine, but no changes.

- Tried using both ES/Astro, same issue

- Once it's been installed, I checked in both ADW/Go Launcher it's not shown there.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong :confused:

+ Btw I was able to create the patch and undo and flashed using Rom manager and was successfull, also installed the robotic font.

Phone info - WFS - Unlocked Bootloader, Rooted, S-on, CM7.2 RC0- Kang,

Kernel 2.6.35

Sorry, i was not really clear on step 1.

You need to put the APK on your sd card, install it, and than APPLY it in the app "Theme Chooser" that is by default on cyanogenmod 7.

Someone could make a CM7 ROM with all this things, it would be great ;)

Because in this way, it is little bit difficult.

I know, I did the patches too on the latest nightly and it was stuck in a bootloop after that.

Will change asap, thanks for reminding me.

I tried, but I do not have the knowledge to do this, so if you know anyone who can, tell him to PM me and we can work together.
[HTC Wildfire S] ipodguitar:
I posted this topic to the android general themes section, because it will most likely work on any CM7 rom that is ldpi/mdpi.

another method

first unlock bootloader through htcdev.com it isn't a big deal

make sure you have installed android sdk

download recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-saga.img and Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip I've attached it

(rename recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-saga.img to recovery.img)so you can flash it easily

than download android fastboot tools I've attached it

extract the fastboot-tools.zip to lets say C:\android

check out the 11.jpg

now turn on your phone into bootloader to do that push volume button down and power button than go into fastboot and plug your phone into usb

than run command and go to folder that you created lest say cd c:\android

than type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

done you've installed clockworkmod recovery

Now it's time to root your phone.

put Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip to sdcard root folder means just move it sdcard no subfolder

start your phone into cwm recovery to do that turn of your phone and again press volume down and power button

than scroll to recovery via volume up and down button than push power button when recovery highlight

and cwm will start up than select install zip from sdcard go to the Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip and select yes

phone is rooted

HOPE THIS HELP :)

Interesting! Try using 4EXT recovery? I find it better than CWM. Ext4 file systems, mount USB in recovery mode, etc.
[HTC Desire S] eyahl:
In my opinion it is in any way better to s-off and not unlock with htcdev. anything you do will be much more easier when s-off (for example flashing ROM, no need to flash boot.img separately...) And also there's a bigger chance of voiding your warranty when using htcdev.

You can get a Squaretrade warranty to offset some of that warranty concern.

But when I get to work I will notice when I unlock my phone that I have a pop up asking me if I want to connect to the office wifi network. I go into setting and wifi has spontaneously turned itself on. I will turn it off again but the same thing usually happens the next time I unlock my phone and open the browser. Then just now, I unlocked the phone and opened the browser and the wifi network notification popped up again, but this time I went into settings and and it says the wifi is still off.

That's actually a setting on the phone, where it will ask you if you would like to connect to wifi anytime an application requires a data connection.
