[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nraboy:
If you're asking if Android applications can be ported to the BlackBerry Playbook, then the answer is yes.

Research in Motion recently released OS 2.0 which allows for Android emulation on the Playbook. I believe it emulates Android 2.3.3. Using their freely available tools, you can convert your application apk to their bar format and it will function correctly on the Playbook.

However, there are some limitations to what Android abilities you can port. For example I heard you cannot port applications with ads. I believe there is a list of cans and cannots you can perform on OS 2.0.

I hope this answered your question.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
Yes you can port android apps very easily using rims online tools, I did so myself to win a playbook. You can't use admob ads in your apps but I think other ad providers are supported just not google.

When you use their online tools they will tell you if your apps are compatible.

thanks guys but i want to know whether we can change rom from bbx to android , r there any devloper working on it
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
No it isn't possible yet but it might be in future, if it is you will almost certainly find out first at the crackberry forums as xda is not really pb oriented and its the crackberry guys who are looking into porting different operating systems to pb.

[HTC Sensation] dingo dog:
So, I have a messed up sensation, reboots itself, not randomly, but when you turn the screen off, or after flashing a new rom for first five minutes until you finish initial set up. Everything works, except bluetooth or wifi. So, it does not restarts, if you charge it, or leave screen on, or you use it until the battery dies. Tried a new battery, no luck. Tried different roms, no luck. And my question is, is there like system log? And can a phone detect that it has a smashed screen and digitizer and restart itself? Yes, the screen is smashed :DDD Thanks
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
It seems that you have hw probelms... Maybe you could have damaged some other parts of the phone...
[HTC Sensation] dingo dog:
Well, I have taken it apart, everything is fine inside. And I think it would not function at all if something serious was damaged. Just now i finished flashing an ics without sense. It does not reboot for bit longer. You can drain the batt by using it with screen on. Just finished it off with shadowgun. Now I can see an error that appears, but if you charging, it just goes on after you press ok, if you are using it, same thing, but if it happens when screen, restart. com.android.phone stops working, and phone reboots.

Since you're looking to flash ROMs

2.3.5

you can do the superoneclick and dl rom manager and flash a the cwm recovery and then flash a rom

OR

2.3.5/2.3.6

Use ODIN

flash RECOVERY

flash ROM

good luck

here is a link the samsung site http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SGH-T989

go down to and click manuals and downloads, and click downloads.. click the device and tether one. Let me find another link if anything

here is another link i got from melvin's thread

I am familiar with the root process, just hear about a lot of bricks with Odin. I'm skeptical, but will try this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobby3306:
Odin is pretty safe really, just make sure you have atleast half charged battery, you dont want your phone dying or cord coming out or batteryfalling out during the process thou
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jacoballen22:
Okay, will try once I get home. Definitely gotta take the case off for this one.

For the life of me, this will not work. Odin 1.85 will not work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zak rabbit:
I had a hard time at first, odin kept giving me the "incorrect file type" or some such. Make sure you're flashing a "pda" and not "phone." Also make sure you're using the tar.md5 file as is. This was strange to me coming from the nexus one.

Just a head's up, DO NOT flash roms for the i9100, that's how I hard bricked my "g-sII."

Where's the md5? I know I downloaded it; but where does it come into the process?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
That's only when you're unrooting and flashing stock roms. For recovery it's just the .tar file
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] S7UDi0:
i HAD the same problem with my laptop, but used my other HOME PC and it worked fine.

try saving it on your "desktop" so you have easy access to the Tar. file. just drag and drop when odin begins (or asks for it) did this twice in one day with mine and my wifes phones !

I made the mistake of attempting to add Arabic language to my galaxy note.

In so doing, it now won't seem to turn on.

However, I can hear it connect and disconnect from the computer if I toggle the power button. I'm assuming it's continuously in the download mode until I get it out? I don't know, since nothing shows up on the screen. Am I screwed? Should I attempt a replacement?

Please help me.. if I posted in the wrong forum, please move the post.

The phone is still brand new and im really scared.

Also, if I cant do anything using software, will a jig work in my case? And if i take my phone to the samsung dealer, can they do anything to fix it? like change the internal memory or something like that?

All help is really appreciated

Why would you tell him to use Heimdall when he is rooted on KJ6, can download an app, download the kernel and push a button? We need to keep it simple for noobs...

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING MAKE A BACK UP OF YOU EFS FOLDER!

I am on Stock GB (Firmware version: 2.3.6) now what

:

• Some have learned the hard way the importance of making a back up of the efs folder on your phone. The efs folder contains important information about your phone and in the event any of the files in the folder are corrupted there is yet to be a clear and concrete fix without a back up!

• Some will say you can’t make a back up of the efs folder without root. But I used Super Manager and copy and pasted the folder to my SD Card before rooting. I then copied it to my computer. Whether I can use this backup copy to restore the folder I hope to not find out.

I am on Stock GB (Firmware version: 2.3.6), I have an efs backup and Rooted now what

:

• I need a custom kernel to give me CWM5 and Voodoo Lagfix

o I chose to go to market, download and install SGS Kernel Flasher

o Download Subtly Modified Stock with CWM5 + Voodoo Lagfix from the Galaxy S 4G Android Development section to the root of your sdcard.

o Open SGS Kernel Flasher.

o Backup kernel.

o Select the kernel you downloaded.

o Flash kernel. Phone will reboot

o You will hear Linda speaking on the Galaxy S 4G boot screen.

o Wait and wait some more! She will keep talking to you!

o Eventually the phone will reboot.

o Go into settings – Check your kernel version (2.6.35.7-sms-kj6-v0.1.1-rc1+) and check your IMEI.

Here is the thread the information came from and has LINKS to follow for the downloads.

You are saying ODIN or the Gremlin Remover are easier than using SGS Kernel Flasher? Have you used SGS Kernel Flasher yet? I doubt you will say your recommendations are easier if you have.

Hi guys, thought i would intoduce myself (even though ive been here about a week).

First off I'm in the US military im a redleg to be exact (field artillery) and have since about 2008, I'm married and have 3 kids. And also Im an asshole by nature, its nothing personal toward anybody ...as some of you may already know(and if im an asshole or offend anyone send me a pm and i will apologize).

On that same note I really not one for really caring much for what people think about me (including the guy right now reading this saying wow what a douche...lol) gets you farther in life and I am here to impress no one. With that being said I'm here to help out as much as i can (used to do some mild theming but its been a while) and soak in the knowledge and great roms the devs put out.

A little bit about my phone history...

I started with my first android which was a behold 2(sold), then i ended up with a mytouch(sold), then my reacent sgs4g (stolen), g2x (sold), and here i am with the GS2. in case you are wondering...i have a very short attention span when it comes to phones, im digging the gs2 though and think im sticking around for a while.

The youknowwho everyone is referring to is you, just to let you know. I will not reply to you again and add you to ignore because I know who you are and don't want to trail any more threads off topic. I can tell that that post is intended to just cause more drama because you are desperate for attention. This post did not contribute to this thread at all (and neither did mine really, but I am replying to another post). If you actually posted something useful that pertains to the thread you are saying it in after searching the internet and getting a knowledge of the subject, I wouldn't rant. The only posts I have seen you post are insulting other users, such as "it is all of the old people" and "marcusant is insulting other users". If you are truly this hypocritical and are truly new even though you seem to reference to events that have happened long before you joined, I would be surprised. I will try to not reply and try to ignore any more posts by AdjectiveAnimal or any other troll that seems to use the exact same phrases. The reasons behind my insulting (it really wasnt insulting), was to show you what you are saying to other users in the forum. I am really confused as to why you would cause this much drama on a PPC development forum. I would be less mad if you actually contributed positively to the community. I hope that you read this post entirely. Please do not respond (I am talking to everybody) as it will bring this thread more off course. I see that you are already banned. I hope that if you do make a new alternate account that you actually attempt to contribute. I'm sorry for any thread jacking or additional drama. Have a nice day.

Now for a real reply. I find it odd that they are able to sue for data throttling that everyone has noticed and known about for a while. It still effects android phones and probably dumbphones with 3g. This is one reason I chose sprint. But I do bet that the throttled speeds are faster than Sprint's 3g on a good day.

I am having difficulty getting our XOOM tablet to connect to WiFi via a mobile hotspot being provided by a Galaxy Nexus. Both the XOOm and Nexus are running ICS and are not rooted and are stock.

The XOOM sees the WiFi network being provided. However, it will not obtain an IP.

I have no issue getting other devices, including another Nexus, and Transformer Prime (both ICS) to connect to the same hotspot that the XOOM can not connect too.

Does anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

Stock Android doesn't support ad-hoc networks, which stock tethering is. Guessing the devices that work are running custom roms.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wstahlm80:
The Nexus which is providing the mobile wifi hotspot (via Verizon subscription) is running a stock version of Android (4.0.2) and is not rooted. The devices which can connect to this hotspot are another Nexus of similar stock version, a Dell M4500 laptop, and an Asus Transformer Prime running the latest 4.0.3 version of Android as provided by Asus.

As mentioned, the XOOM is running the latest version of stock ICS as provided by Motorola.

The only device that cannot connect to the hotspot is the XOOM. I do not see where I can choose between an ad-hoc network or an infrastructure network within the wifi hotspot settings.

Also, like I mentioned before, the XOOM has no issue with connecting to the Nexus if it shares it's internet via Bluetooth, it only has an issue with obtaining a connection via the wifi tethering mobile hotspot.

What is really confusing to me is that the same wifi hotspot which the XOOM has trouble connecting to, the Prime connects with no problem at all.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigrushdog:
Produce a logcat of the xoom attempting to connect.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanshinG1:
Prime isn't running stock Android.

(There is no option in stock android for infrastructure or ad-hoc with tethering, nor is such a distinction relevant with Bluetooth)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wstahlm80:
Indeed, my description of "stock" is not accurate. When I describe these devices as "stock" I am receding to them as having an unmodified ROM as it was provided by the respective device manufacturer.

So you are correct that my Prime is not running a true stock version of Android. My bad.

ZANSHING1: Is it even possible to connect a wifi XOOM to a mobile wifi hotspots (specifically, to one being provided by a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus which does have the appropriate hotspots feature as part of the phone plan)?

BIGRUSHDOG: where do I need to go to obtain the "logcat" file you are requesting?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanshinG1:
I think you will have to use one of the tethering apps that provides a full infrastructure hotspot.

This is the only one I'm aware of that does. There may be more. But it has some requirements for the kernel.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Legato Bluesummers:
I've been tethering my Xoom to my Bionic for months. And was tethering to my Droid X before that. I had to flash a ad-hoc wifi supplicant through clockworkmod recovery to get tethering to work on my Xoom. Or. If you have root explorer, I assume you'd just back up stock wifi supplicant file and replace with one that is modified, like I had to do on my galaxy tab. You'd still need to be rooted to do that though. Stock isn't going to cut it.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wstahlm80:
So....if I am understanding these responses correctly, the XOOM will be able to access a wifi hotspot which is provided by a (Android) phone ONLY if it (the XOOM) is rooted and has certain files either added or modified in order to connect to the aforementioned wifi hotspot?
