[General Questions and Answers] trym1234:
Why does it seem as though only high end Android devices get any attention on this forum? Everything Android is virtually identical, save for the select readers sold by large retailers. There's the Android SDK to back that up; the differences being internally (memory, processors, etc.). I'm looking to try and enroll in Android App Dev in school next semester, and if someone needs to fill in that gap, I'll try since I have taken a peek and wrote a few small programs as well.

(And yes, I am almost expecting to get bruised for this question...this forum is severely misrepresented by, I'd say, 75% a-holes who think they are awesome because they have over ten posts and can root a phone with software rather than by hand or flash their rom with a rom manager! Do keep it easy, and do NOT take my honesty for granted. To assume will make an ass of you before me.)

The low end android devices suck !
[General Questions and Answers] martonikaj:
Its the simple fact that the high end device users are more likely to be enthusiasts who want to tinker with their phones, whereas those who buy a lower end device are probably less likely to be rooting and ROMing (unless they're buying low end devices as secondary "tinker" phones for fun).

So that alone leads to a smaller user base of the low end phones. Not to mention that for an individual device, the low end phones don't push the number of sales as the superphones. You're not seeing a $49 on contract Android device selling 20 million units like the SGSII.

Also keep in mind that not all high end devices are well supported on XDA. There are a lot of phones that just don't get big developer uptake on them. Whether its because of the niche carrier its on, or a locked bootloader, or whatever -- just because its "high end" doesn't guarantee a big development base.

Hope that can put some perspective on it.
[General Questions and Answers] trym1234:
That may be true, that low end devices suck. But history has taught us that low end devices will prove something useful in the future or that something will come along and breathe new life into the "suck" devices. There is such thing as too powerful for a particular task.

Even if it is just to show someone the workings of an Android device is beneficial to someone who hasn't used an Android device.

Anything else, other than "Because they suck"?
[General Questions and Answers] trym1234:
martonikaj thanks for the reply, i had to have been writing my reply as you typed yours, lol.

It seems logical that someone would want to buy a small cheap device to test on a get a feel for. This way if something breaks, it's not a huge loss, as opposed to buying an expensive device and running the risk on bricking it. Should it happen to be bricked, most companies won't replace it once they find out it's been tampered with.
[General Questions and Answers] martonikaj:
I'd say that's probably true, but you don't see it happen that often. Many people are rooting and ROMing their daily driver devices, and don't have 2 phones w/ one being the dedicated "hacking" device.

Truth be told its pretty hard to brick a device if you know what you're doing.
[General Questions and Answers] trym1234:
True but let's be honest...how many post have you seen where someone bought that trillion dollar phone only to try and root it, and guess what; they're here asking for help to get it off that boot loop (lol)
[General Questions and Answers] martonikaj:
Lots of people for sure. They need to learn how to read before starting their root process lol. But that's just a boot loop, at worst a soft brick. I very rarely see a hard brick of a device.
[General Questions and Answers] martenp17:
well, low ends do get some attention in here, i mean im owning a lg p500 , witch in my opinion is pretty low end ... the low ends arent completley without attention, just less atentionn, the reason is as some1 said before, the owners of low end devices dont usually try to root, change roms etc
[General Questions and Answers] worf_1977:
Hello

Just thinking that i started with a Nokia N95. one of my favourite phones ever, then an iPhone2G (wich sucks), and then, an Xperia X8 (wich I loved)... Now i am on great words (LT15i), an Arc, and thinking of buying an Xperia S when it will be released on my country :D
[General Questions and Answers] thebobp:
If you're an enthusiast you're probably gonna get a high end phone. Also, higher-end phones are more visible in popularity; that is to say there's a higher number of people coming here saying "i own the Samsung Galaxy SII" than "I own some $49 phone no one's ever heard of", which in turn drives devs who are looking for an audience.

Yeah that's fine bro. The provider text on the pull down is in the systemui too, just a different file.

Do u know what I mean bro?

Btw I'm using the latest beastmod ;-)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Babyj303:
Well the date is in framework-res.apk. I know cuz mine is now blue to match my clear glass theme see attached screenie. Um upload the files for me and ill take a look

So im thinking the clock is there aswell but not sure. its deff in an xml file its just narrowing it down to wich one? Im fairly new at this too. So still learning where everything is.

..oh really, I saw a dateview and datetext entry somewhere in systemui I believe but maybe those aren't the ones.

I'm on the go right now but if u can download beastmod and extract framework as well as systemui so we can get this going faster cause I won't be able to upload till tomorrow ;-(

Yea when I put this color code on my phone just shows up gray

I would love to have an all green text notification bar

Edit: I found the code #82B600
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] n3cc3rs:
if you want an all green text in the notification bar remember alpha red green blue, so a non transparent green would = ff00ff00, red = ffff0000, blue = ff0000ff, and so on (I apologize if I am stating the obvious)

If you aren't a coder tou will not have your MIUI so easy.

You have, first, to resize the images from the source.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] realism51:
Other tablets when you stop using them, the screen turns of f. I can't find an option with the prime that allows this to occur. When i set the tablet down, the screen dims but doesnt shut off unless idoit via power button. Has anyone had this happen and know what to do about it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Erusman:
Go to your settings. Then Display. Then the sleep option. You can adjust the number of sec/min for the screen to shut off.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] realism51:
Right. Its currently set at 1 minute, but no dice.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Chrono_Tata:
The screen should shut off completely when haven't touched it for a while. Are you sure that you haven't installed any apps that might be keeping the screen awake?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] realism51:
Yup, right out of the box. Did the updates, no apps installed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Chrono_Tata:
Hmmm. Don't really know what would be the problem in this case. Just to make sure, you know the screen will start dimming before it turns off completely right? In case you are touching the screen after it starts dimming or something. That will just wake it back up.

Anyway if nothing works you might want to try a factory reset.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] IAmTheRobin:
I am having the same issue. I turned on "stay awake" options in developer options to keep the screen alive when it is charging. However, it is also affect the prime when it is not connected.

It only seems to happen randomly every boot. The prime can be asleep and disconnected for hours. Then I wake up and the screen is on and dimmed. When this happens, the battery percentage becomes locked and will not change (So I cannot really tell when it happened or how much battery was drained during this time). I am forced to reboot to correct the battery percentage and get the prime out the the "screen wake lock" until is randomly occurs again.

Running .15, but has been occurring since .11 on my C10 model.

Hey guys, I a new rooter and I installed eaglesblood 2.7 as my first rom and so far its working well. I only have one issue which is the loss of volume for the microphone. I'm constantly getting complaints from people saying they cant hear me while on the phone. I did a recording test on both EB and my backup of the stock rom and the recording was noticeably louder when done on the stock rom (same sound record app and both at max volume output).

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

any cm7 based rom will have the low microphone issue.

the dev lowered the volume to prevent voice distortion, but i'm afraid it was lowered too much.

After upgrading to ICS, the build in Camera App has problems and also the QRC-Reader App even shows a error.

In Google Googles and Camera FX, the Camera works perfect.

Does anybody experience the same issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Nope, all working perfectly here. I tested video, still, and panorama with the front and rear cameras, including all options (white balance, face effects, etc.), as well as panorama with the rear camera (it can't be used with the front one), and scanning a dozen different 2D and 3D barcodes with the ZXing app and rear camera as well.

Not a single error or crash on a stock US-market just-wiped TF101. Well, other than that the camera quality sucks, but that's a hardware issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cerberusmedia:
every camera app including the stock one work perfectly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SparkyRih:
Mine also works perfectly now... fornt and rear...

But one question though: in the stock camera app, what's the button in the lower right corner for? my camera app freezes when I click on it...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gpaunescu:
Hi,

Also for me not working camera; I try more applications, none of them working.

This is very strange: I have between the applications that are included in ROM also "Superuser". This suppose to came with ICS?

My TF was rooted previously, but when I did upgrade to latest version of HC (8_6_5_21), I did lost the root.

So this application was installed in my TF before the upgrade to ICS; but now I cannot uninstall: seems that is included in ROM.

The error I receive when I try camera is : "Can't connect to the camera".

I believe that something went wrong in my upgrade. I did also factory reset after upgrade to ICS, no change.

Now I hope some update from asus will help me.

camera not working

My camera is not working as well, done people have started their cameras up while holding their finger in front of it to activated their auto focus, and have had success. Just place your finger in front of the camera for 5 seconds then remove it. No success for me, but you can tell it's doing something different when you do that
[Eee Pad Transformer General] yioti:
Same problem here "Can't connect to camera". This error comes up for front facing camera but the back camera works perfectly. Thing is this error came up when I installed the prime rom.

PS. The front facing camera was working when I bought the tab.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sbiriguda:
Ah, the front sensor strikes again...

That's almost like my own experience with the front camera: worked like a charm on Honeycomb, since 9.2.1.17 it goes berserk in low-light conditions until the unit is rebooted (but instead of an error message the Camera application showed a garbled image with previous contents of the framebuffer).

IIRC, the first batch of logs I sent to Asus North America was related to this problem :rolleyes:
