[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ugotproblemz:
How do you guys edit your build.prop??? more specifically WHAT do you change? and into what?

Thanks,

EDIT: do i change this? "ro.build.display.id=NAMEOFROM"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sic_lic1o1:
Just a warning to some of you guys. I signed up for this around 5pm today. Downloaded the app. Created a login name. Logged in and it showed 50gb free. I thought everything was great and all. 2hours later. I got a call from my credit card fraud prevention center telling me that there was a online merchants called "cloudb" tried to put a charge of $50 into my credit card. They asked me if I was doing any purchasing anything from there. I told them no. So they closed my account number and will send me a new card. I only put my email address in as a login. I don't know how they got ahold of my credit card. I didn't even have time to mess with the app yet. Maybe I was just unlucky. But just want to let you guys know what happened to me. I logged out and uninstalled that app now.

you dont need to change your build.prop
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 8Fishes:
There's something like a 100mb file limit too. I thought that it might be a good choice to place backups too, but consensus says dropbox is way better in terms of service all around.

Someone said he edited his build.prop to make his phone 50gb larger. Does this mean you can edit your build.prop to install applications etc. on Box?

Sent from my SGH-T989
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdubb1106:
you dont need to edit ur build prop just sign up for box online (theyll give you 5gb then) then download the app on your phone and sign in (at which time they should give you 50gb free for life
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] slice2011:
worked like a charm, thanks!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ugotproblemz:
Kk thanks yea i was worry when it said 5gb at sign up thats why i was so into the build.prop mod. Gonna try it out when i get home. Thanks!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matt-droid-x:
Hi all, hoping someone could help or at least set my mind at ease. I put the Axiom Cyanogen (?) ICS port on my Bionic yesterday and since it's been installed my soft buttons (menu, home, back, search) have been lit. Is this normal? Is there somewhere in the settings I can turn this off? I have looked thru all of them but can't seem to find the option. Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
it is just a random thing that happends when i flashed the axion it worked fine as soon as i flashed the 1 percent battery mod over i got the same thing so i wiped everything flashed new it worked fine so i suggested to reinstall i don't believe there are any setting that either enable/disable this just certain things that cause this that no one know a fix for it yet hope this helps..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xJeganx:
I can only speak for number 3 definitely and it will fit with a thin case (TPU) although the stand isn't the most stable. If number 2 is anything like what I had for my Evo it won't fit with a case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EyeAndroid:
Thanks for your reply. I decided to go a completely different route actually...

I'm gonna write up a DIY Nexus dock that should be dead easy to make with $10 in materials to complete.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] optikalblitz:
Link for Pic #4 is the same as Pic #3 link.

Corrected link for KR-Net Dock. Doesn't look like it'll fit with a case on. For $13, I'll give it a shot with my caseless i515.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EyeAndroid:
Cool thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CodeMonkey:
#1 doesn't charge with a case (sgp neo) hybrid).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EyeAndroid:
Wow, that's the exact case I've got and # 1 was my very first choice for docks. So that answers that question. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CodeMonkey:
No worries. It's a shame 'cos it's a nice dock and there's only a couple of mm lacking I think. No way to mod it cleanly either (yes I levered it open and looked :banghead: lol)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neotekz:
i think the best bet for a dock that will fit a gnex with case is the seidio innodock. it has a micro usb that is raised and pivots. seidio says that it works with their active.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redrapt0r:
I have a phillips fidelio dock for android and I wish manufacutres would build a case that is able to fit into the USB slot. It BARELY fits, but the Micro usb is just a tad bit too short to actually connect and charge the phone!!!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jaydeekay:
This probably isn't a big issue but it's getting on my nerves. When I go to settings and hit keyboard, a 'Sorry! The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.' I did "try" to root and unroot it. Anyone had this problem? Can anyone help??
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Yeah, that's a common problem for everybody. Here's 2 ways you can change keyboards:

1.) Get Keyboard Manager from the Market. It can even let you choose different keyboards for portrait and landscape orientations.

2.) Go into The NT Hidden Settings app -> Acessibility Settings -> ignore the pop up -> input method
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jaydeekay:
oh thank you so much. I had no idea it was a common problem. I searched for it here and on google. didn't find anything on it. but im relieved now that i know i'm not the only one. thanks.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tel864:
I've downloaded and tried keyboard manager and downloaded several keyboards. None of the keyboards ever show up though. The only option I ever get in input is the default Android Keyboard.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
I forgot to mention that you'll have to move the keyboard app into the /system/app folder of your device. Then reboot and you will have access to the different keyboards.

Also, there's a thread devoted to installing alternate keyboards in the Themes and Apps sub-forum. I would provide a link to the thread but I'm using my Tablet now and I have yet to flash CM7 with its copy/paste, haha.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tel864:
Yep after moving the hackers keyboard to the right directory, it`s working great.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gregs1213:
I am having trouble getting into the /system/app folder in my device. I've connected the NT to my PC, but cannot find the folder, and I've made it to show hidden folders.

My girlfriend got this Nook for her mother, and I'm really trying to get a good Japanese keyboard for her. I downloaded OpenWnn from the Market, but I can't find the APK file anywhere on the device either. I know I making some n00b mistakes! Please help me out!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
You won't find it that way. Use Root Explorer or ES File Explorer on the device.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Yeah, this.

I recommend ES File Explorer, as it's free and easy to use. In the app, hit the Favorites tab and you should see the internal storage represented by just a slash ( / ).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gregs1213:
Thank you, I had ES File explorer already installed. I found the system/app folder, but I don't know where to find my APK file (for OpenWnn) I downloaded from the marketplace. However, the Keyboard Manager I downloaded, is showing up the system/app folder already.

Thanks a lot you guys for helping this n00b.

Also, this is kind of unrelated and I'm sure there is a 100 page thread somewhere about this, but whenever I checkmark "Allow third party applications", it automatically unchecks itself when I go back.

Thanks,

Greg:)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
Try /data/app - that's where market apps typically go.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Glad to hear you got it working. In case you were still wondering or for others who have the same question, the keyboard app you downloaded was probably in this location: /data/app. From there you'd just want to move the app into the /system/app folder. Then reboot and you should be good to go (don't worry if you keep getting a force close of the keyboard app before you reboot).

EDIT: ckevin, you're too quick, haha.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gregs1213:
Moved the file to the system/folder.. and it finally showed up in the accessibility setting, but still getting an error that it stopped unexpectedly.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gregs1213:
Has anyone got another keyboard with a foreign language to work? I've been searching the forums for hours, but I haven't found any successful way to do this.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gregs1213:
It looks like some people got swype and possibly other keyboards to work with CM7 installed.. Thinking I should go that route, but it's still in Alpha. I REALLY need the japanese keyboard, or this tablet is somewhat useless. Thanks everyone for your help.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Caesius:
Nook Force Close trying to change Keyboard

I have ES File Explr, I have seen the folders noted in the previous replies. Unfortunately, I cannot find the keyboard apk at all. There is actually nothing in my /data/app folder. From what I can tell, most are in the /system/app folder ...except the keyboard one I need.

So, to get around this, I downloaded a keyboard apk to my PC and then dropped it into my Download folder on my Nook. From there I used ES File Explr to copy/paste it to system/app folder -- but it would not allow this. I tried to "Move To" and "Cut/Paste" as well as the aforementioned "Copy/Paste." None of these were allowed.

I am at a complete loss. I understand I need to move the new Keyboard apk to system/app folder, but I

still

cannot find where it is stored. It does indicate "Installed." I tried a search in ES File Expl (for the word Keyboard, as it is in the apk name - even trying *.*apk, which was of no use, of course).

This thread addressed everything I asked and seemed to answer same. And I will continue looking for add'l help elsewhere in the forum. But if anyone can help me, I would be sooo very appreciative. Thanks!

PS:

I have the Nook Tablet orig. released Winter of 2011/2012, I think (when they first came out as "official Nook Tablet" with the Jane Lynch commercials (at the time Best Buy didn't even know they existed when I went in to purchase one). I rooted it (because a week after I got it they pulled that auto update that screwed all of us). But, aside from the root, I am not a super user. Everything I've done has been with the help of the masterful XDA instructions.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Birdsbeaks:
If you happened to see the first nook tablet case / disguise I made, it was great at looking "dressed down", but less suitable for a more upscale or professional atmosphere (i.e. job interview, lol)

This one is at home in more dignified locales. And, there's just something about holding a real book that feels... natural.

On a side note...I got suckered into the door to door encyclopedia sales...Cost me a total of like $890 bucks. But it was a lot more than just a set of books. I was basically a complete "homeschooling kit".

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Haha how did you decide to choose to use the "L" book?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Birdsbeaks:
It was the right thickness. The original plan was to use the foam insert from the nook packaging. That didn't work out, wasn't secure enough, and couldn't access any buttons/ports, hence, the "broccoli bands". :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Deleted member 2870764:
how did you cut into it?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Birdsbeaks:
X-acto knife, it took a few blades, they get dull pretty quick cutting paper. I don't like posting links outside of the forum, but, if you google "hollow out a book in 80 easy steps" the first result is the guide I used.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoodratchandler:
I did the Odin one click to bring my phone back to full stock after having issues. i then downloaded ROM manager from the market, since i am running 2.1 eclair i just flashed it via the app. now to upgrade to a new rom, i need to enter download mode. I thought you could always hold in the power buttons and plug in the usb cable, but that isnt working. this CWM version doesnt have a rebbot recovery option in advanced either. really need download mode, any experts got a tip or two..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
You may want to check out the "Captivate Connection Issues" thread. That should get you to download or recovery mode.

Also, it's probably best to let go of Rom Manager - it's not very useful on the Captivate.

[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
hey all,

well i unlocked my bootloader okay.. i used the android super toolbox (.bat file) and choose to flash a recovery.img i choose the Amonra option but it installed CWM recovery instead...and now I cannot get Amonra to succussfully flash, so that I can root. Any help?!:confused:
[HTC Rezound] andrewp3481:
Reboot boot loader and use fast boot to flash amon ra. I think its called recovery.img and its in the tools folder of that tool. Put it in the folder you have adb and fasboot and then while in boot loader do fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
i did

fastboot flash recovery "nameofrecovery"

i even used the CleanFLASH tool and still no luck
[HTC Rezound] andrewp3481:
Make sure you're in fast boot mode and you can see in the command prompt it sent it

So go to boot loader then click on fastboot
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
When you did "nameofrecovery" did you put. Img at the end? "Nameofrecovery.img"
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Make sure you add .img to the end of the recovery file name. I forgot once and got an error.
[HTC Rezound] mpalatsi:
This is kind of wrong... I'm assuming you've CD (changed directories) to the platform-tools in order to use fastboot. With that being the case, you'll want to specify the "path of the recovery" not the "name of the recovery" + .img of course.
[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
to verify

CD /

CD/ Root (where i have all my adb stuff)

CD:/Root fastboot flash recovery recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img ??

can i rename the file to simply amonra.img?
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
You are placing the recovery image in the same folder correct ? but yes that would be the correct path. I don't know why you would change name as long as you are typing it in correctly.
[HTC Rezound] andrewp3481:
I always change the name to make it easier to type. Example: cwm-touch.img or recovery.img. I never leave it all crazy like "clockwork-vigor-5.5.1-recovery.img"
[HTC Rezound] andrewp3481:
I got it! Go to system devices on your PC and make sure you have the drivers installed correctly. This happened to me with my nexus.
[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
I just did it though ubuntu.... god i love linux lol thanks all for ur input
[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
i did notice this on the hboot screen

Open DSP v10.6.0.7611.00.0919

maybe that was there before, but i just noticed it. anything in the name of S-Off!
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
What is the error you are getting?

The phone is in fastboot, yes? It says "fastboot usb"?

Are you using a folder named "Root" or do you just have your stuff all loose in root? I would keep it in a folder, name it whatever you like, android or something. Put everything you need in there, including the recovery zip file.

Open cmd prompt.

cd c:\android

fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

That should do it. I've attached a pic of what I have in my folder which is all you need in there.
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
Hi guys,

Ever since I flashed a sense less version of ICS (not blaming the ROM here, could be a coincidence), I've been hearing white noise on the left channel when I have headsets on. I tried 2 pairs and I hear the noise with both so I know it's not the headset.

The weird thing is that the noise starts immediately after I power up the phone. I did a battery pull, connected my headset, powered up the phone, and even before the HTC logo comes up, the noise will start.

Not ROM/Software related it seems, but here's the kicker, if I flash a new ROM, the noise goes away but only for a little bit of time, after a bit of usage, it'll come back. If I listen to music, sometimes it goes away, sometimes it just reduces a bit, sometimes nothing changes.

So I doubt it's the phone that's broken, it did happen right after flashing a senseless ICS Rom. I don't want to flash a full RUU yet because there might be a solution out there that doesn't require me to go back to stock so that I can install a full update.

Has anyone experienced this?
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
In case anyone is interested, I went to the Verizon store and I was told that although this is not a wide spread issue, it is actually a known problem. In some units, constant noise (even as the phone is booting up) will start happening when using the headset.

The person at the store didn't even check my phone, he simply started the process for a warranty replacement.

So if that happens to you, it's not the ROM, it's the phone itself.
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
CPU interference

Hit thanks or ill hit you :)
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
Definitely interference from something because the noise changes as I open/close apps or just flip through launcher pages.
[HTC Rezound] Pucuck:
I have the same exact issue but my warranty through Verizon is void since I traded my iPhone 4S to someone for the Rezound. Mine was working fine and one day it just started having this issue. Took it in and they told me they couldn't help me since I voided my warranty by trading (plus I don't have insurance on the phone).

Contacted HTC and the told me that it was a known issue and to contact their warranty company to get it replaced/fixed. The warranty is still good on the phone, I just have to send it to NY with a letter explaining my issues. Kinda worried about just putting the phone in a box and sending it on it's way without a paper trail of some sort.

Glad you were able to get your phone replaced. Good to know I'm not the only one here that had this issue.
[HTC Rezound] Volkaru:
I also started having this issue, it didn't show up until about a week after having the phone, though. Nice to know it's one of the things covered under warranty that's easy to get worked on, though.
[HTC Rezound] djdubd:
I've had the cpu noise issue on three different Rezounds now, HTC says it's fixable in software. I don't know when we will see a fix though, if ever.

Hi

I deleted some programmes on my rooted TAB

Cant recall exactly what

Now Market fails with message 'The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped '

I deleted the cache but still it wont work

Can I restore the tab to an earlier date?

Can I somehow restore missing files?

PLEASE HELP need basic instructions as no expert
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
Hmm... if you knew exactly which apps you deleted, you might be able to find them in another ROM and just adb push them back to the tab.

Otherwise, at this point, I would suggest a re-stock (take the tab back to factory settings via re-flash).

Which tab do you have exactly, and what Android OS were you running? For example, I have a Galaxy Tab 7" P1000 GSM (T-Mobile) and I used to run Gingerbread (2.3.3)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zalanz:
thanks

mine is a Galaxy Tab 7" P1000 GSM (ORANGE) on Gingerbread (2.3.3)

I know I uninstalled z4root but honestly cant recall what else.

How easy is it to restore?

Not sure how I reflash it?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
Hmm, I'm not too sure if you need root or not to do an adb push, but it's pretty much:

Download app to computer, plug tab to pc, open cmd and do adb push FILE.apk

You'd need android SDK though prior to that and platform tools.

As for re-stocking, you can either use Odin (samsung's phone/tab flashing tool) or Heimdall (open-source flashing tool). In any case though, Team Overcome made a nice guide for restocking that should work with Odin.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1317384

In short, you want to have Samsung's drivers installed, reboot your tab and put it in download mode, download the files needed to re-stock from that thread, open Odin, enter the gt-p1000 pit for pit, GB-stock-safe-v5.tar for the pda, and a modem for modem, then start flashing

I also made a nice guide involving Heimdall re-stocking here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1508703
