Got Your Problem Solved!

Just Connect Your Phone Via PC

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled.

Go to command prompt

type cd C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools

And then

su

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

cat /sdcard/filename.apk > /system/app/filename.apk

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

reboot

This is the same method as you did in Root Explorer

I think it is not working because maybe you have the odex version of Android OS

so using the same command push the odex file also in system/app

If you dont have these file take your friends phone enable usb debugging and go to comand prompt

type cd C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools

And then adb pull system/app/FileName.apk or .odex file

then

REBOOT

You're Done ! ;)
[Windows 8 General] bobbyelliott:
I am trying to use Readyboost with Windows 8 to speed up my relatively slow laptop. It works fine but I have two questions.

1. Does it make much difference?

2. How come I am limited to 4Gb Readyboost since the USB stick is 16Gb?

Thanks in anticipation.
[Windows 8 General] getrdy:
Windows is capped at 4gigs readyboost as far as i know.
[Windows 8 General] 64GUNSHIP:
eBoostr is a far better alternative. Give it a go.
[Windows 8 General] m0nkf1sh:
I've tried ready boost in the past but never saw much speed improvement using it.
[Windows 8 General] Nitro_123:
Maybe your drive is formatted in FAT32. Format to NTFS and enjoy all 16 gigs :D
[Windows 8 General] bobbyelliott:
Thanks. I didn't think that it was limited to 4Gb. I'll try NTFS formatting and let you know how I get on.

What is the best screen protector to use with the note? I'm using a zagg but I'm having an issue with the pen not being accurate with where I'm drawing or writing on the screen. I don't know if the zagg is the cause of this or is it something with the phone. (I'm asking because I'm going to take the phone to best buy and if its the zagg I will get a different screen protector instead of them giving me another zagg).

Im using the SGP Steinheil screen protector and it isnt interfering with the SPen at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] shaolinx:
Same here, i got the oil resistant version and it works fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eazie757:
Thanks guys but the issue is just with the functionality of the pen and note itself. I went to best buy and all of the notes did the same thing. I guess I was just expecting it to function and its response to be smoother/better than what it is. Hopefully if and when they release the OTA ICS this will improve it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alperin1:
Are you seeing the line is not directly under the point of you spen? If so, this is something that many other have seen and are dealing with. They are even trying to find some way to calibrate the pen. Nothing just yet.

Also, if you are left handed there is a setting for the pen for leftys. I must say it does not seem to make a bit of difference for me.

BTW, there are threads about this, have a look around.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lastdeadmouse:
What I've found, and it may be the glas sp I'm using, is that if the spen is perfectly perpendicular to the phone, it aligns perfectly. If I'm holding it at an angle, it almost certainly will be off by a few mm.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnus:
There IS a way to calibrate the pen. Well, to auto-calibrate it at least. Just take out the pen and with the screen on, draw circular squiggles over the edges of the display, so that whatever you're drawing, a part of the line is actually drawn, and then a part is off-screen. Do this along all the edges, and the S-Pen should be calibrated. Mine was initially off by almost a centimeter, but after doing that, it was nearly perfect. I've noticed that it likes to drift over time, but it's easy enough to just squiggle along the edges occasionally to keep it in check. You don't need to be in an S-Pen-compatible app or anything, as long as the screen is on and it's reading input, it should work.

And actually, I'm in the same boat regarding the Zagg screen protector. The one I had for my old iPhone had crystal clarity, but unfortunately the Zagg for the Note makes the display look oily all the time. It really bugs me. The only other screen protector I've found locally is a frosted protector (ew) so that's even worse. But with the Zagg, the protector is slightly squishy, so it feels like I'm writing on tacky tape with the S-Pen. And it leaves indentations everywhere. But since Zagg/Best Buy will replace a damaged Zagg at no charge, I'm kind of afraid to try anything else. Most places won't let you return a used screen protector. I suppose I'd rather have a protected screen than an exposed one that draws nicely...

I do feel like the touch sensitivity has been decreased since I put the Zagg on, ever so slightly. It's strange, I certainly didn't have that problem with my last phone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnus:
A little update: after a couple days the oily look has significantly decreased. It's still not as clear as not having any screen protector at all, but it's a lot better than it was and I don't mind it at all now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] torbjorne:
I'm using zagg but it's way too sticky. How is steinheil? I want it to be slippery with pen and fingers.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chaz9999:
Agreed. I didn't bother reading reviews before buying the Zagg. Too much resistance. Wish I had done the research, now I'm down $30 since BB won't do refunds on "consumable" merchandise.

Anyone else use the Steinheil protector? Like the above poster, I'm looking for something friction-less. Anyone use the "ultrafine" Steinheil protector? Does it cut down on glare (using the Note 10.1 as a digital notebook for classes).

[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
F A Q

1- I open the app, but all the values look empty!

It's because you are not using a compatible kernel. As far as I know, only mine and Droidzone's latest kernels do have the necessary patches, so switch to one of them.

2-I cannot drop to 3201 mV!

Some batteries cannot drop into that level, it's true. If your device turns off at higher voltages - like 3400 mV - you can use this value for your registers instead. Please read the following pages or DS2784 chip spec.to use your own value here (key registers are 62 and 63)

3- I drop to 3201 mV, it says "plug the charger" and I plugged. Still device turns off!

This is due to Sense kernels using a different power supply drivers than AOSP kernels; and due to Sense kernels being "less sensitive" to the changes in battery status, thus not sensing the charger plugged it. In order to overcome this, you must decrease your battery usage to a minimum so that your battery can last a little more - just enough for Power Supply driver to sense it. To achive this:

1- At about 3350 mV values, turn on the Airplane mode; decrease the screen brightness to a very low value.

2- Once the program tells you to plug in, plug in right away and then turn your screen off with the power button.

If your device is not turned off within 2 minutes, your learning phase should have begun.

4- Still the phone turns off at 3201 mV!

It's very much likely those solutions above will work; but in case they don't and you want an "easier" calibration - try calibration at some AOSP ROM like Cyanogen Mode ROM or Oxygen ROM (i.e. you have to change your ROM at least temporarily) . AOSP kernels are more "open" to calibration.

5- Do I need "ahmet" kernels for AOSP?

No. All current AOSP Roms come with a modified kernel that's already supporting the calibration - and they are also free of the Sense kernel bug mentioned above since they're completely written from scratch!

6- Can I change ROMs or Kernels after the calibration?

Changing ROMs are OK as long as you use ahmet or Droidzone's latest kernels (i.e. kernels that support calibration) with your new ROM. You should flash the ROM prior to booting your device for the first time.

NOTE HERE: If you're to flash AOSP ROM, don't use ahmet-exp kernels with them since ahmet-exp kernels are Sense kernels. All AOSP ROMs are calibration friendly anyway.

Changing kernels is a tad more tricky: you can change into the kernels that support calibration only: that is either into ahmet-exp or Droidzone kernels.
[Desire Android Development] nomatterbv:
Good work, I'm glad that somebody found a solution for this problem.

I'm waiting for the fix, can't wait to test it and see how it goes after that, if it'll help my batt and increases it's life.

What else to say, thumbs up and keep up the good work.
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
So is needed one battery calibration after change the kernel?

Tapatalking
[Desire Android Development] nomatterbv:
After every flash/ROM change it is advised to wipe battery stats and calibrate it if you flashed while your phone was plugged in to USB or charger.

This is logic, new ROM, new stats.a battery stats wipe is advised as I said but calibration...I don't think so, you need to do that just once (as I saw on other threads).

What I do after flashing a new ROM/kernel is just to let the phone discharge untill it shuts down, charge till it's full and wipe battery stats.
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
I' ve done that many times and my phone still shutdown at 15% aprox

Tapatalking
[Desire Android Development] nomatterbv:
I flashed the ROM which is in my signature, optimised it and I don't have that problem any more (it shuts down at 2-3%, when it reaches that % it drops down to 0 instantly).

Try to flash other ROM and change kernel, also use the latest RIL and Radio, it might help you. for me it worked.

Just wait untill theGanymedes posts the fix, flash it and see if it'll help you out, it'll need some tests but anyway, I think it will help.

great work this is something I'm really glad to see as I get caught out by this bug a lot, the question is now are there any pro compiled kernel flashes available that use this.

[Desire Android Development] gie62001:
dont want to sound noob but is there any chance of implementing this fix in ICS kernels like: Tiamat 2.6.28 ICS?

as my ICS rom also shuts down at above than 15%.

thank you
[Desire Android Development] botellito:
or implement it in manus kernel
[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
Yeah, SNQ didn't release his sources, alas.

And thank you Droidzone! I don't know what would we do without you :) However, your patch is faulty - for some reason, it messes all the file. I've included the patch that'll do it correctly to the first post ;)

About the battery fix - I didn't touch that part but know that bananacakes's sources do have them.

Compiled kernel is delaying a little bit - because my toolchain is faulty, for some reason producing unbootable kernels - going to upload it to the first post when it's ready.

Also another thing: since the sysfs interface placement is different than AOSP kernels, the battery calibrator app on the Market doesn't work with our patch - the files necessary for the program to work is in somewhere else in our system. So, I'll try to find a way to "create symbolical links" or if I can't, I'll rewrite the app - apparently Jon Richards didn't publish his sources for the app :/
[Desire Android Development] Pitbull_Raven:
Wow... This seems to be my problem exactly. Mine shuts at 18. But I think really haven't understood how to fix it.
[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
You cannot change those AEF, SEF ... etc. They are simply there to inform you. They are the status register values, which you can find more info in DS2784 Spec. Sheet.

Shutting down in 3201 is answered a million times already, should I answer each of you seperately?!? I think I didn't do something good with giving "nice support" because now everyone keeps asking to me instead of searching under the forum.

You can find more info about what they mean in Google... Just google them!

Guys, I'm sorry, but I'll no longer answer your questions with such haste anymore, because I'm bored. I'm giving so much time here, but you don't even show me a little respect by issuing a search!

I'm not gaining anything with the stuff I publish here; explaining everything just to make my findings public so we can achieve something together; but instead, I feel like my blood is being sucked! FFS, I just recieved a PM asking about HBOOTs!..

Sorry to tell you, but guess I've to remind you that: I'M A HUMAN BEING AS WELL! I like hanging here, reading about devices; but I'm not here to offer you tech support. If you are unable to use even a search function; just leave your device f*cking off!

Sorry for writing so harsh, but I'm starting to get really angry here. I think from now on I'll start working on the projects that make money; instead of answering questions that doesn't give me anything back.

Recompiled CFS_SVS version from scratch, because I've lived a Kernel Oops duue to a paging error which is causing system to freeze while running Scruff. Facebook problem might be because of the same error; please re-download and try that one, when you have time.

It's in the first post.
[Desire Android Development] Sally Mack:
Awesome stuff man. Thanks.

On a side note, your old kernel would boot once, then cause a bootloop upon rebooting regardless if I entered learn mode.

I'll report my findings on the new kernel shortly. :D

---------- Post added at 07:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 PM ----------

I don't see any CFS_SVS versions in the first post :confused:
[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
Try again :) Apparently I forgot to press Save Changes :)

Boots once, and never boots again.. Hmm.. I rebooted my device numerous times already, and lived no problems. In your case, it seems, some crucial file is being deleted or something; why does a kernel erase something in your ROM? I don't have any piece of code does that.

I'm really puzzled now :confused:
[Desire Android Development] Sally Mack:
Tried the new kernel... Doesn't even boot once :(

Also worth noting that I've reflashed the rom as well, just in case something was corrupted. It didn't make any difference.
[Desire Android Development] Nutterpc:
Well ganymedes

Phone lasted 2 days 6hrs on initial charge after that calibration steps, using the ahmat-exp3.zip

Ive made a few more changes on the phone (changed to CFS_HAVS) and also set through the cpu utility (No_Frills CPU Control) to run 128-998, InteractiveX, bfq

What voltages do you use for your HAVS kernels? as a matter of interest :)
[Desire Android Development] bone069:
Thanks mate seems to work now. Tested it for the last 30 mins and facebook app is starting already.

I tried bfs-svs, too and the problem occured as well so maybe this version has to be modified, too. Didn't try the HAVS versions so I am not sure if they have to get the fix.

Which kernel version would you recommend to use?

P.s. I noticed a little wake up lag/delay with your kernel. Would you be so kind and have a look for it. All the other things seems to work very well and smooth.

Many thanks for your great work and help again!!!!!
[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
Wake up lag's do occur because of many settings. Try changing your CPU governors; or IO Scheduler to something else. Since I didn't touch anything else in bananacakes' sources, I don't know where should I look for that yet.

Today I found out in the morning that my phone froze-up as well; during the night. I guess it's the same Kernel Oops made that. Previous time I had lived something like that was when I compiled "curl" for Android; without using a necessary library flag - the thing is: There is no such flag for Kernel, since there is no external library! I really don't know what might cause this freeze-ups now.

I'll try to disable "CPU Task Group" and try again: it's not supported in Android anyway; maybe that can fix it.
[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
Tried that, and it didn't work. Maybe the Git repo of the bananacakes' is not CFS oriented anymore... I'll test BFS ones next.
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
I tried exp3-cfs-svs without problems and now with exp4-cfs-svs I have not any freeze.

[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
Weird: now Facebook works, but LinkedIn crashes. It seems like some fault with Internet downloading stuff.

Another funny thing is: I didn't have any sort of problem with Unofficial BravoS Rom. Kinda starting to believe that the problem is ROM based perhaps?

Right now I'm downloading the "cfs" branch repo of bananacakes - will try with that one (was using the RCU one before)

EDIT: Weird! Now reflashed CFS and it's working again :/ I don't remember what I did, but, well; reuploaded :)

[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
Those who live problems with EXP3 and EXP4; try experimental EXP5 please. I rebuilded that one with a freshly pulled CFS repo, so maybe it can fix your issues.

Theoretically, there should be no differences but, practically: I don't know :D
[Desire Android Development] Sally Mack:
Success! Just flashed, and booted twice consecutively without any issues! Looking forward to finally calibrating my battery! :D:D:D

Not sure what did it, but thanks so much for your relentless efforts on this! Sending a donation your way once I'm on my home pc.
[Desire Android Development] theGanymedes:
Thank you very much :) I actually started to think that this kernel is also a tad more snappier about first-on lags :)

I just simply excluded the RCU tweaks added by pubuntu and compiled the kernel with cGroups Scheduler support. I guess it was RCU tweaks that were leaking and causing issues..
[Desire Android Development] Sally Mack:
I may have spoken too soon. While attempting to calibrate it shut off. I turned it back on and of course now its stuck on the bootscreen :(

Edit: reflashed unmodified gingercakes, then flashed your modded version5, and it booted again. Really weird stuff.
