[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jamesey10:
I have:

1 Android Phone (Galaxy S Vibrant)

1 Android Tablet (transformer prime)

1 Windows Laptop

1 Linux (Ubuntu for now) Laptop

They all have wi-fi and blue-tooth

What apps will let me control all the other devices from any of the devices I might happen to be on? I want one app to rule them all.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fliparsenal:
Android to android- Droid more

Android to pc- splashtop

Ive yet to find an app to rule them all
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Striatum_bdr:
Instead if Splashtop, you should use a standard VNC client/server, Teamviewer, TinyVnc or anything you want.

As long as it uses standard vnc protocol you can use whatever combo you want.

Hello,,

I am runnig FXP CM9.0 on my Xperia Arc.

When i want to undervolt with my android freezes im still get max undervolt -25mv

And with Acronium with can go far as -75mv

What is the problem?

Thnx in advance;)
[Xperia Arc General] rashid.fairus:
correct me if im wrong,as far as i know fxp kernel doesnt support uv..

from my ARC using I.See.Ass
[Xperia Arc General] ExterminalPT:
I also think it does not support, but I think you should install another system in the arc to get more performance and less battery drain ... CM9 still has many bugs ... :cool:
[Kindle Fire General] Bohnsta:
I have been trying to install TWRP and I keep running into a wall. Everytime I try to run Kindle Fire Utility it does this (attachment).'' 'findstr' not recognized as an internal external command, operational program or batch file.''

I have rooted with BR3, I believe I have the right drivers too. Under manage devices I see "Android Phone" and "ADB Composite Interface".

I really need some help here. I have searched the forums and google and can't seem to find exactly what I need.

This is the tutorial I was following when I noticed the discrepancy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqKZLMaRSgc&feature=relmfu
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
type "set" at a command prompt and check the "path" variable for "c:\windows\system32"

btw your os/bit would be helpful

another good practice is to move kfu to c:\ and rename it to "kfu" that it is c:\kfu

it don't like spaces in the path
[Kindle Fire General] Bohnsta:
Thank you, I am on Windows 7 Starter 32 Bit.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
did you do the above things ?

success ? - no success ?

findstr.exe is a system command and located in c:\windows\system32

if it's not found usually the path to your system32 directory is missing

here how to set:

http://geekswithblogs.net/renso/archive/2009/10/21/how-to-set-the-windows-path-in-windows-7.aspx

simply add it to PATH with a ; as delimiter
[Kindle Fire General] Bohnsta:
I am working on it as I type this. I already have c:\kfu set up. Now reading that tutorial and hopefully get it to where it needs to be.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AAccount:
I wanted to use CWM to restore my galaxy tab 10.1 but when I used CWM 5.0 it somehow crapped out restoring data. /system restored fine however. I also tried to use CWM 4.0 and overcome CWM5.1 to restore the same backup but I got the same issue. /system restored fine and it started to restore /data but crapped out somewhere towards the end. What this also did in the process was corrupt the /data partition where CWM would appear to reformat it and odin thought it was ok but the /data partition really wasn't OK as I got several weird side effects. A repartition with PIT file in odin solved the problem. (Almost solved the problem, after the odin flash was done and the tablet ran some initializing script it said /data was corrupted. A formating using STOCK recovery fixed it).

Has anybody figured out a recovery that can properly backup and restore CWM backups? I guess titanium + reflash rom zip is a workable alternative.

PS: reflashing with repartition erases your /sdcard partition.

What is the best kernel to use for this phone, i want to know personaly before i try using a different kernel
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
I could be wrong, but isn't there only 2?

The one that comes with the rom and then Faux's?

Until EB updates with the data limit warning thing, I'd use Faux. Then whenever Faux gets better flash whatever new he cooks up.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rodbac:
Epic 4G Touch (GB 2.3.6.) I've rooted it and dumped all the bloat like Social Hub, Media Hub and such.

Yesterday, in "Running Services" I had the basics plus Email (I assume that's needed for grabbing SMS?), Swype, and such.

After 7 hrs of light/average use (4G on and off a few times, dloaded an app, BT on and off a few times, 15 mins of gaming, etc), my battery was at 87%. That was roughly my pattern for the last few days- great battery life for this device, I think.

Then yesterday afternoon, I played with Google Maps, turning GPS on and off, opening and closing the "Traffic" widget (do people actually use that??), etc, then shutting it all down, turning off location, etc.

I then see Google Maps has three processes running:

"NetworkInitiatedService"

"NetworkLocationService"

"FriendsAppWidgetUpdate"

that can't be shut down (when you do, they pop back up a moment later). I left it alone, though, figuring it was filling its cache or whatever- I don't get too worked up about apps doing their thing if they can do it then shut down.

So today, after charging it last night, those processes are still running and my battery is now at 88% after three hours. Google Maps seems to be killing my battery for no apparent benefit- I have no widget running that uses it, either (I have the Accuweather widget running, but it's not set to use current location).

I guess my questions are:

Is this normal- does everyone else see this behavior? Is there any way to shut Maps down that I can't find?

TIA.

[edit]

GPS has been off the whole time (except as noted above), I'm not signed in to Latitude (never have been), and Settings --> Location and Security --> Use wireless networks and use GPS satellites are both unchecked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Robbzilla:
Guess time: Do you have Location services enabled? That might be the issue. Disable them and see if this goes away.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rodbac:
That's the first thing I thought of, but

Settings --> Location and Security --> "Use wireless networks" and "Use GPS satellites"

are both unchecked and always have been.

Is there another place I should be looking?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Is it cached or running in the foreground?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rodbac:
Erm, Google Maps is 'closed' (or at least I back out of it every time- I assume that 'closes' it), and in Cache Settings, Automatic Caching is set to "Wi-Fi Only".
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rodbac:
Update:

I just went in to:

Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications

And hit "Clear Data" on the Maps app and it stopped all the services running.

Happy, but I didn't expect that. In fact, I might have expected the opposite.

Why would clearing its data stop it from running??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rodbac:
Also, it only shuts them down when you "Clear Data" from the system settings, not from Titanium Backup.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] quick99si:
Open Google Maps again and see if those services get started back up. They do on my phone (LocationFriendService and MapsBackgroundService)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
Autostarts!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
That's why I always delete it and grab it from Market when I need it. Google+ does too I believe
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rocketman228:
Maps running

what works best for me is titanium backup pro....(only pro version) i personally dont like to keep uninstalling apps so with pro you can keep the apps that run all the time and than just freeze them and than they wont run any more and when you need them you just go back to titanium and defrost them !!!!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Freezing is definitely a great alternative to uninstalling. I just use those apps so little that I figure uninstall. JRummy's Ultimate Backup is great too. It is also a feature in ROM Toolbox Pro if you long press on an app in App Manager. You can freeze there as well
[Nexus S General] jalyn02:
Anybody know any news about when it will be back up and if Google is working on 4.0.4?
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
Only Google knows.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
Frankly I'm a little pissed since it looks like other devices are starting to see ICS updates (Asus prime) and we were supposed to be first after the galaxy nexus.

I'm not complaining since they did release all the files and source but if I wasn't rooted and unlocked I'd still be waiting.
[Nexus S General] albundy2010:
If you where stock all you would have to do is name the official ota update.zip and flash it with stock recovery.
[Nexus S General] jalyn02:
Thanks, but this I know. Google know that it's a problem with there Nexus S ota and I'm wondering if there's any news about when we will get ics back. It's been two months now and still no news:(
[Nexus S General] jalyn02:
Installing custom roms is the reason why nobody's complaining and Google won't act.
[Nexus S General] albundy2010:
Google will release it when it is ready.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trikpa:
so, I bricked my defy

I was on cm7 7.2 kang, then I flashed the white rabbit and that was ok

after that I accidentaly flashed the miui rom pikachu without a wipe

and was stuck at boot logo...

so I downloaded the 2.2.2 Service Flash Central Europe because nordic was unavailable

now, all I got is the white led on the defy, can't even boot into bootloader

what to do?

what sbf should I use??

please help :)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labsin:
Many others with the same problem:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1505109

Can you remember what previous sbf's you flashed?

Normally RDS will detect your phone when you plug it in.

Try to remember witch sbf's you have flashed and flash one with the same bl number.

You can try to download the sbf again and install it from a different pc. If you think you never flashed a gingerbread rom.

For a good link to the CEE sbf:

read before you flash

i thought it is near impossible to brick defy as its boot loader is locked :P ... reading saves a lot of time.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labsin:
You CAN brick it :D. If you get a power-out on the exact wrong time f.i.

Or you use a USB-cable with a knick in it...

Best thing is not to flash a rom with a bl version higher than your official released as then you can always claim warranty (If your not over the warranty data of course)

Source: Android™ Ice Cream Sandwich beta ROM available for unlocked 2011 Xperia™ smartphone models

Official thread by Kalle: [ROM] Official Sony Xperia ICS Beta ROM for arc S, ray, neo V

As a follow-up to the previous alpha, Sony has released the official beta of the upcoming ICS update for 2011 Xperia models. Unfortunately, this beta is currently only available for Xperia arc S, Xperia neo V and Xperia ray and they must be already running the latest firmware (4.0.2.A.0.42).

What's new?

Updated UI – We hope you will be happy to see that we have added a number of UI elements from ICS, as well as some new UI features already introduced in the Xperia™ S we announced in January.

Lockscreen and Face Unlock – We have added a shortcut to the camera directly from the lockscreen. Also, when you’re listening to music you can control the music player without unlocking the phone by using the music control icons on the lockscreen. In the coming final ICS upgrade, we will also include the face unlock app from Google for all phones that has a front-facing camera. The Face Unlock feature uses the front-facing camera in combination with advanced object recognition algorithms to provide a new way to unlock the phone. However, since Face Unlock is a Google Mobile Services (GMS) app, it is not included in this ICS beta ROM.

Connectivity turned on – Since we published the ICS alpha ROM, the GSM modem and FM radio have passed the certification and type approval, and they are therefore turned on in this ICS beta release.

Updated email client – The UI has been updated, and simplified email management has been added.

Quick dial – We have added a quick and easy way for you to make phone calls. See how it works in the ICS beta ROM demo video.

Please note that the Google Mobile Services (GMS) apps (for example Gmail, Google Maps and Face Unlock), Bluetooth™ and Wi-Fi™ are not included in the beta release due to that they are still waiting for the certification and type approval to be finalised.

New link to a zip, which you can use CWM to easily flash. :) Thanks andy_dunlop

Mirror link. Could be faster.

Hi op, thanks for that :-) um question:

1. If I install with cwm, does the beta default kernel needed? I'm using aire's kernel is that a problem?

2. Is rooting can be done with using rootxperia.zip from fxp?

3. Can we flashback to gb from cwm without touching kernel?

4. Andy, sorry if I ask you this, but just to be sure, what's your changelog for the cwm zip?

Thanks a bunch

pull the link down mate.. came across a few issues

---------- Post added at 03:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 AM ----------

this is what i think:

1 YES

2 NO as i rooted the rom in my flashable .zip

3 NO

4 uploading a new flashable zip as other one was invalid??? the changelog for the new one is that it will only be rooted and compleatly untouched!! if i can get it to upload without any problems

do i have to downgrade to .42?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hansip87:
Wifi i haven't tried it.. When i get home i'll try. Bluetooth is ok though.

No need to downgrade, just flash from fastboot over. :) SE list that requirement just to assure that the device is the latest release.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] kizsleg:
i got a bit confused because they say that it is required to use latest build number 4.0.2.A.0.42, but i have .62. okay thanks. i'll report back later if got mine to work.

EDIT: Hope to see all your mods in ICS. ^_^
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] berbecverde:
I was on .62 an everything works as it should.Updated using the instructions from Sony.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hansip87:
He3, will do, but not in the current state :) let the software reaches Final state then i reapply the mod :)

I meant that the requirement should be read as for devices who has the access for .42 firmware and up.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] *boy*racer*:
Ok I managed to get WiFi working again. What I done was flashed the .62 firmware using flashtool then flashed ics Rom strait after without booting. Then rooted and eddited the build.prop.

I will make another flashable zip with everything working when I get home after 2pm
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hansip87:

You're still flashing the kernel first right?
