Please help!!! i tried to change to HD revolution following the recovery mode steps and after install the SUPER WIPE zip and reboot my phone just shows the HTC logo and that's it ...what to do now.
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
You have to flash the rom after running super wipe. You have no OS installed. Boot into recovery and flash the rom and then let it boot. A search would have told you this.

Anybody running the beta of onskreen multitask? I just read CM9 wants to have it baked in. Huge potential and maybe the biggest draw to windows 8.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] albert emmer:
roman's AOKP rom, build 23...has onskreen inside...well, from its name, i think it has. check it out..

here: http://goo-inside.me/roms/edt/p4wifi/

this for GT-P7510 wifi version only.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Kayak83:
I didn't see the onskreen edition .zip. I ran 24 and was fairly happy with it but ended up back on overcome. I'd love to see some video or something of onskreen running. Maybe I'll browse Youtube.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] animelover:
In that case put your glasses on while reading. :D

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Kayak83:
I meant it wasn't on the top of the thread for the AOKP in the development section. Build 24 was posted so I assumed that was the current and be all end all version and just installed that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] yiannisthegreek:
This looks cool. I hope it is released as an app or can be cooked into custom ROMS moving forward...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] albert emmer:
there u go:D

roman never mention bout that build in his threads. but there it is. from its name i think onskreens inside.

anyone try it yet?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Neffly4u:
I've tried the onskreen addition, its amazing but is VERY buggy, that's why roman only did one addition of it, because the developers need to fix it before he can do anything better in his rom. Definitely nice for things like YouTube (where it stops playing when you exit) because you can keep it running :-) if you don't mind a lot of force closes and hang ups

then its definitely fun to play with but in my opinion is too much in a beta stage to be more than just a fun rom switch when bored.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] animelover:
Just a side note:

mabalito is trying the same for us GT-P7500 users so next build could possibly come with Onskreen features. Yay. :D

Is there a trick to install the hacked HotSpot? It keeps saying "Not Installed". I am stock rooted.
[EVO 4G General] threestripebrand:
Edit : disregard, I must be tired. I don't even know I tried to read the op lol.

Thanks E4gN.
[EVO 4G General] Notorious:
If your trying to install it like a normal .apk its not going to work. You have to move it to system\app and set the right permissions
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
What are the correct permissions may I ask? I have friend that just rooted her phone and wants the hotspot hack instead of wifi tether. Are the permissions the same as others, need to be inverted "7"?
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
I believe, if it goes in /system/app , as noob stated, then permissions will be rw-r-r. Same as other apks in system/app.
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
No, no, no, no....if you are not using a rooted custom ROM.

The hotspot hack(s) will only work on deodexed ROMs which you must flash through recovery. Since stock ROM is odexed, the only way you will receive the hotspot hack other than using the wifi tether app is to flash a rooted custom (possibly rooted stock) ROM which is deodexed, which most of them are.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
The hotspot hack works on odexed roms check out the classic it only comes odexed and has hotspot working u can do anything odexed u can deodexed now a days
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
Ok, 1 odexed ROM. I still have never seen a hotspot hack that wasn't part of a custom ROM, unless I've missed it somewhere, and have never found one for stock ROM, unless it was a custom rooted stock ROM.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Ummm try looking there are modded hotspots to oush to your rom with instructions all over the dev section
[EVO 4G General] viper51499:
I've always just flashed a rom that has hacked hotspot baked in. It's never caused any problems. I used it as my ISP for an entire summer with no issues.
[EVO 4G General] cremator75:
Ok, so I'm rooted with superuser. How do I set those permissions when it put it in the system/app folder?
[EVO 4G General] kawaski47:
Please read this OP.

I suggest flashing classic.06 it is a bare bones super quick rom with hotspot hack already installed
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
It's much easier to either use the wifi tether app or just flash a rooted ROM with the hotspot already hacked, since every hotspot hack I ever did needed to be done in a CUSTOM ROM anyway.

Also, that system/app thing (with the rw-r--r-- permissions) will install the app, but will not hack it into working, tried that about a year ago.
[Nook Touch General] darkness122:
i'm really interested in this e-reader.

i was about to seal the deal with a kindle touch but saw the android support for this e-reader, and me being the android dude i am (samsung galaxy s2) i HAD to give this a shot.

quite briefly: i have a lot of pdf's already, and NEED good pdf support, or at least a good way to convert them to a good readable format.

also, I know with android I can use Google docs, Gmail, etc. how is typing on this thing? I have a great ics multi touch keyboard, would it work on the rooted nook?

oh and how much does android effect on battery life?

is this is e-reader for me?
[Nook Touch General] oiad:
Out of the box it has pdf support but not necessarily the best support. Here is a review with a video showing stock and rooted nook abilities with pdfs.

http://www.the-ebook-reader.com/nook-pdf-review.html

once you have it rooted you have the market to test a lot of different pdf programs. Probably is going to depend on what your looking at. i personally convert all of my pdfs to epubs with calibre. Every so often one doesn't format right but the majority are readable. I've been happy with this reader. I have a 6in eclair eink tablet which is pretty awesome.
[Nook Touch General] darkness122:
thanks for the response, it seems a rooted nook touch will be able to do quite a lot, I updated the first post to reflect my typing and battery concerns.

[Nook Touch General] Googie2149:
For typing, I use my Nook to take notes on during class. It took a little bit of getting used to, but it's not that bad.
[Nook Touch General] bobstro:
You will be able to do more than with a stock NOOK or Kindle, but don't expect too much. I've had mine rooted for about a month now, and have found that it offers a few more options that work very well as a reader with a few goodies added.

I tried the readers, and they do work. I settled on Repligo. That said, these readers are definitely not designed for a device with an eInk screen and lacking multitouch. You can read a PDF, but there is a lot of flickering.

Be aware that it runs Android 2.1, so many apps do not work. I'm using Maildroid for corporate Exchange, Google and IMAP email, and find it works very well. My favorite, Enhanced Email, will not run on this device. I found that Smart Keyboard Pro with a high-contrast display (black letters on white background) works with minimal flicker. Prediction does not work. Any keyboard animation generates a lot of flicker, which I don't like. Auto-prediction does not work correctly -- suggestions do not display -- so I've had to disable most of the automatic correction features. It does work well, though, once I get used to "typewriter" (all manual) mode.

That's up to you. With wifi off and allowed to sleep normally, it sips battery life. After extended testing, I find that it consumes something like 0.1% battery per hour. With wifi and screen on and in use, consumption goes to 4-8% per hour. If you load it up with widgets, background polling and the like, battery life will be very disappointing. Again, don't think of it as a feature-laden tablet. I've used Tasker to only enable wifi when a few specific apps are running, and to disable it when they exit, or the screen goes off. I'm good for at least several days, and I suspect a week or more before charging is required. It's hard to gauge, because every time I plug it in to USB to sideload content, it charges up so quickly.

No. It's MINE! :)
[Nook Touch General] case-sensitive:
There are eink-optimized pdf readers, like ---

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1186949

--- that incorporates partial freshes, significantly reducing flickering. The URL has links for the freeware; there is also a version on the market that makes better of our hardware, for a very low price (no, I'm not the developer!)

Just to clarify: Auto-prediction does work on some apps. In fact I wrote an app (for generic 2.1+ devices) that calls the most basic auto-complete macros and it works like a charm on NST, so there is likely to be an issue with how a specific app was implement.
[Nook Touch General] oiad:
I just use the gmail app and it doesn't give me any problems, works the same as it does on my E4GT
[Nook Touch General] darkness122:
in all honesty, i never planned on buying my books via kindle or b&n so it really came down to the hardware itself for me.

simply put, after much research, the two are basically identical hardware wise (no sound on the nook but whatever i dont need it) and the fact that I can further customize a bit with android just put the nook touch over for me.

im gonna do a 2-3 hour charge, then root this badboy right away. im assuming this is the latest n greatest way to root our ebook atm?

It's not, actually. The author of TouchNooter made a comparison of the different rooting methods here. Ignore the TorimuNooter in that list, as it doesn't exist anymore.

[Acer Iconia A500] austin148:
Hey guys, I'm new to XDA and I have a few questions needed to be answered if you don't mind :).

So an "official" ICS leak came out not too long ago, and tonight I tried installing it on my a500. By "it" I mean the stock leak for unrooted devices. Problem is, it's not working.

Long story short, I Googled like crazy looking for answers to these questions, and I found no specific answers anywhere from Iconia users, only by people with Droid phones.

I need to know the answers for

1) Can I install the stock version ICS from my internal SD card? If so, how?

2) How do I do this without rooting my device?

3) After renaming the download to "update.zip", as some have said, do I first extract the contents then place them in a folder called update.zip, or leave it as is and rename the large file?

In the end, I renamed the file to "Update.zip" without extraction, then reboot my device in recovery mode. The green Droid came on, then a warning sign, and nothing happened. How do I boot the ICS?

Sorry if this seems like a lot, I barely know any of the technical aspects of this stuff!
[Acer Iconia A500] wolverine423:
must be on externel SD with stock recovery.
[Acer Iconia A500] cheddaface:
same thing happend to me. I found out that my pc named the zip update.zip.zip, i used file explore on my 500 and took of the extra .zip and flashed it. And it worked perfectly.
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
0) You shouldn't have messed with this without first understand exactly what and how you do it. There's a really BIG STOP sign in the thread. Read the thread first to avoid bricking your device. Everything is here, so you don't have to "google like crazy".

To your questions:

1) No. You need an external SD for your stock recovery to flash the update.zip

2) Copy update.zip to the ROOT of your external SD card, power off, then power on, while holding Volume DOWN key

3) You should not extract the archive.

About root - it's a nice thingy - you are able to install a custom recovery in order to BACKUP your current firmware. Then you can flash one of the 4 custom ICS ROMs that will keep your recovery safe and not overwrite it. Actually you can flash very easily any custom a500 ROM with a custom recovery.

Now, try to flash again by using an external SD, if it still doesn't boot, try to hard reset the device (tutorial on how to hard reset - in my signature - in the revert to 3.0.1 thread)

If it still doesn't boot, read this thread on how to recover your tab:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1516012

Good luck.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
The above could not have been said any better by anyone. EXACT TRUTH.

i just want to add this is a leak for the a500 . I do not think i would call it official.Also Remember Its yet to be known of the procedure you will have to fallow to accept the RELEASE IF I C S from acer in April (when they say anyway)

Thou from the past i can nearly guarantee you there will be a way. But could require you to downgrade root and flash one of the many ics cwm roms..as in the post above mine signature
[Acer Iconia A500] austin148:
Thanks! This all makes sense. However, there remains something unclear to me. If I have to use an external SD to boot a leaked ROM, how/where does the OTA update install from on my internal sd card? Can't I just place this ROM where the OTA usually loads from and run recovery after that? Thanks in advance :D
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
The way you can flash it yourself (stock recovery: Vol down + power) requires an external SD. You don't have access to your internal storage by using stock recovery and there's no "key combo" you can use to do that. Once you install custom recovery, you'll be able to flash from Internal memory as well (thor's does, still haven't used RA recovery and don't know about it).

...But in order to install custom recovery, you need root. Custom recovery allows you to make full backups of your currently running FW + app data. If you're still on Honeycomb I recommend you get an external SD and go for the method 2 downgrade procedure and root it or go for timmyDean's procedure that installs rooted stock 3.2.1 ROM on your device (says it does need an external SD so it might be your choice), then install CWM and voila - you're in control and you can wipe your tab and install whatever cusom ROM you like....and you backup first of course :)

If you don't feel like messing with your tab's system, then wait a little more for ACER to release ICS OTA update.

Battery life varies GREATY with usage; a good indicator of usage would be your on-screen time.

What is your on-screen time?

[Nexus S General] rocket999:
There is another thread like this one with real usage battery life...

That being said, I agree that this combo has awesome battery life. I'm using it myself. I froze a few pre-installed apps, and turned auto sync off, and my phone seriously dropped 1% overnight with wifi on. That's pretty amazing. I don't have deep idol on, stock voltages, and 200/1200 with interactiveX.
[Nexus S General] glennkaonang:
Could you tell us what apps you froze?

Does it really help saving more power?

Thanks.
[Nexus S General] rocket999:
I don't have my phone on me right now, so I'll post what I froze in a minute. Freezing apps stops them from using up RAM and CPU time. In turn that saves battery. It doesn't save as much as turning off the auto sync though.
[Nexus S General] d3one:
my phone was 1 day and 15 hrs without a charger but this rom have bugs like home buttom not working screen close (need to be like old tv) etc etc....
[Nexus S General] glennkaonang:
I turned off auto sync and backup but my battery still drains pretty fast even when on 2G all the time.

I've frozen Maps and Talk but that doesn't seem to help.

I noticed that my phone awake time is high enough when the screen off although it can go to deep sleep normally.

I also noticed that Google Services has high % of battery use.

Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?

I'm sure that I have turned off auto sync.

But this Google Services still drains my battery.
[Nexus S General] ballroom dru:
How exactly do you "freeze" an app?
[Nexus S General] rocket999:
What phone do you have? I have a 4g, so it's on CDMA. I know that the auto sync takes up more power on CDMA networks then it does on GSM. Do you have GPS on? What about your NFC? Those both take up battery.

There's an app on the market called titanium backup. You can "freeze" apps so they aren't running and don't show up anywhere. It stops them from running in the background.
[Nexus S General] glennkaonang:
I have an i9023, the GSM one.

Yes I've turned off almost all that my phone doesn't even deserve a title of smartphone.

Clean install of ROM is done already.
[Nexus S General] ourtut:
You have to freeze apps like Google + Google wallet ( stuff you never use) just make sure the system does not need it or you'll run into issues. Also use a task killer but disable auto kill and only kill when u need too.
[Nexus S General] .OmEgA:
Task killers are a waste of space. When will people learn how to exit apps properly and know that the android system handles its memory just fine on its own?

[Motorola Droid 4] gefagan:
Do I understand correctly that there's presently no way to factory reset or unbrick a Droid 4? I've owned a Droid 1 and a Bionic and had great experience with custom ROMs, but that's in large part because I've stuck to trails blazed by folks far more knowledgeable than I. The work that Hash and Matt are doing looks exciting, but frankly at this point I can't afford a new phone if I take the plunge and hit the rocks. If I do encounter problems, will the Droid 4 utility help me get back to square one?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] highmoon:
My nexus is LTE version, and had stock 4.0.2. I unlocked the boot loader, and rooted successfully, using "Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit v1.3". I can see that the boot loader is unlocked in FASTBOOT screen.

My computer recognizes both ADB mode and FASTBOOT mode.

Then I did "Temporary Flashing" of ClockworkMod 5.5.0.4 to "Boot" partition, and installed 4.0.4 successfully. And applied the new "su.zip" as well.

After doing this, I could see that the phone boots okay, and everything was perfect, including the root permission.

The problem starts from here.

Since it was temporary flashing of CWM, I wanted CWM to be permanent. So I first erased "/system/recovery-from-boot.p". And then used the toolkit again, but this time I selected "Permanent Flashing" of Clockwork Mod 5.5.0.4 to "Boot" partition.

Now, when I turn on the phone, it boots into CWM recovery(!). Furthermore, if I select "reboot system now", it reboots, but it boots into CWM recovery again(!). I can't get into Android anymore.

I don't know if it is a good thing or not, but when I'm in CWM recovery mode (when booted), my computer recognizes the phone as "ADB mode - recovery".

Oh, and when turning on the phone with VOLUP+VOLDOWN+POWER, it still shows FASTBOOT screen (and yes, the computer still recognizes it as FASTBOOT mode), but when I select "recovery", there's an Android with a red warning sign on it, and system halts. I should do a battery pull.

What should I do??? Help

PS1. I downloaded "mysid-icl53f-factory-blahblah.tgz" from google's depository and extracted "recovery.img". And used the toolkit to "Temp Flashing" to "Boot" partition, but it ends up in the android with the red warning.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heo_con184:
If you're using Galaxy Nexus Toolkit v5.4 from mskip, you don't need to extract anything, just copy .tgz file into the appropriate folder and the toolkit will do the rest for you.

Try reflashing the stock image from google again (make sure you choose the one for CDMA version).

After that, use toolkit to flash CWM, and the touch version is fun.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Samsuck:
If you're using Windows. You can be saved at this point. The good thing is that your device is being recognized by ADB in recovery.

The toolkit installed the SDK onto your computer

Here is what you do to go save yourself

Download a Galaxy Nexus LTE ROM as well as the Gapps package for it. (AOKP as an example)

go to C:\Android-sdk-windows\platform-tools and put the ROM and Gapps in there

Now, with your phone plugged into computer and in recovery, open up a command prompt

In recovery, navigate to "Mounts and Storage" and be sure to select MOUNT DATA

type

cd c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

adb push EXACTNAMEOFROM.ZIP /data/media

(depending on the file size, it will take about a minute or two)

adb push EXACTNAMEOFGAPPS.ZIP /data/media

adb reboot recovery

------

Okay, now that you have rebooted recovery , go to "install zip from sd card" and MAKE SURE you see the ROM and Gapps package, but DON'T flash them yet.

Go back,

Wipe data

Wipe Cache

Go to advanced and select Wipe Dalvik Cache (ignore the SD-EXT error that's normal)

Go to Mounts and Storage - and select Format System

Go back

Go to install zip from sd card, flash ROM, then slect install zip from sd card again and flash Gapps

REBOOT

Enjoy :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] highmoon:
Again...

I'm wondering, as heo_con184 said above, if I can flash the stock ROM? (instead of other ROMs)

Must it be other ROM to make it work?

Thanks in advance.
