Any idea what the keycode for the rumblepak on a dualshock 3 controller is?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Rickycoe123:
The way i would like to map my n64oid controller is left analog to move, dpad as dpad and right analog as c- buttons..

can someone help me with that, im also rooted with sixaxis but also have a usbport!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blackdrag:
Once your controller is properly connected with the Sixaxis Controller app:

1) In the Sixaxis Controller app go to settings button, preferences, gamepad settings, and check off "enable gamepad."

2) set Sixaxis Controller as the Default IME (Aka default input method). go to the android settings app, Language and input, change the Default IME to Sixaxis controller. Keep in mind that if you want to type something the keyboard won't show up until you change the Default IME back to android keyboard. If you tap on a text box there will be a keyboard icon in your notification tray or status bar with which you can quickly change the default IME back to android keyboard without navigating to settings.

The controller should now work with dual analog sport! You might need to change mappings from app to app... for me the Mupen64 n64 emulator works great with dual analog support. (Originally it didn't work and when looking for help that's how I found this post :P)

I just took over a Verizon account with 2 unlimited data lines. If I use wifi tether to tether to my ipad will they cut off my unlimited data?
[Epic 4G General] MysteryEmotionz:
I just wanted to pop n say hi. I miss you guys.

as some of you know I left sprint to goto metro pcs n stopped working the epic n Android all together. I went a couple month with a non smart phone. I finally had enuff n missed Android. I invested in the Samsung admire. Let me just say that phone was a pos with no dev support. I helped with getting Odin n cwm on the phone. I then built a basic ROM. as I was working on the ROM I lost all interest in metro n there ****ty data speeds. I am now with t mobile n I have a lg mytouch 4g (e379). I haven't started any real development for my new phone as it already has official cm7 support. I did how ever make a little tweak package for my self. Idk if I will release it to the public.

Well that's enuff about me. I see things picked up pretty good for the epic after I left.
[Epic 4G General] XxLostSoulxX:
Whats going long time no see man, funny thing about metro is it uses sprints tower but yet has ****ty coverage lol. i have my epic near my friends admire, now he has the optimus but yet i still get better signal love it lol.
[Epic 4G General] samsungd700:
Well sprint does not own their towers so how can metro use sprint towers if sprint does not own them? I think metro is not a virtual mobile operator like page plus on vzw.
[Epic 4G General] Zeinzu:
Dude we got stable cm9 now. And what!
[Epic 4G General] IronReaver17:
'Baby come back...' LOL
[Epic 4G General] XxLostSoulxX:
metro works off all sprint towers, or roams on them, something along those borders?
[Epic 4G General] JBakey:
Good to see you around again! Miss your themes haha

I'll have official Ics in q2. although I have Cm7 the Cm team does have A Cm9 branch started for my device

I miss the epic community. The community four my other phones haven't been so great

Mystery! How we've missed you! (I follow you on Twitter, so I've kept up on your evolution! Your tweets back and forth with k0nane are priceless!)

SRF 1.1.1 and 1.2 along with Emotionless Beast are still legendary, in my book! Hope life is treating you and the family well! (pick up an OG Epic on Ebay and rejoin us!)

You are now and and always will be... "one of us"...
[Epic 4G General] MysteryEmotionz:

[Epic 4G General] k0nane:

There seems to be a lot of confused people in this thread. Sprint owns its ENTIRE 1x/EVDO/IDEN network infrastructure. They have a roaming contract with Verizon and limited contracts with smaller, regional carriers for the areas that they do not cover (relatively small parts of the country). MetroPCS operates similarly. They run their own network, and roam (poorly/limitedly/expensively) on others for where they don't cover (which is significantly more than Sprint). They share resources only with Cricket, as the two are merged at a parent-company level.

Boost and Virgin are MVNOs that operate on Sprint's native resources. Page Plus is one of several VZW MVNOs. Sprint is not an MVNO, nor is MetroPCS.

Hi Mystery.
[Epic 4G General] MysteryEmotionz:
Sup K0han. Love the self portrait.

Nice break down on the network explanations. I didn't even know this much. I learn something new every day
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
I'm the cat. That was a pretty awkward picture, I was pretty sure Deckhand Horseface was more interested in molesting me than stopping me from taking a swim in the churning ocean. But I was pretty drunk at the time and I'd done a bit of blow (check out my eyes - and his, I shared) so my memory could be bad.

Sure. More info where that came from... I'm like Wikipedia with an attitude. Also, it's 5:37am, why am I here? (oblig XKCD)

I'm not really in the loop. OK, I'm way way the heck out of it. I had no idea Mystery had gone to an entirely different carrier. Damn I'm clueless. :confused:

Mystery, it's good to see you stopping by and saying hello. I know that if you decided to come back to the Epic 4G, you could do great things for that platform once again.

Regardless, I wish you nothing but the best and much success in your future endeavors! :)

with the spen

1. press and hold the button on the s pen and while touching the screen move your s pen from top to botton= bu doing that it will take you to the home screen even if you are using an application.

2.press and hold the button on the s pen and while touching the screen move your s pen from right to left= and it will act as if you were pressing the back button on your phone (also work on any app).

3.press and hold the button on the s pen and while touching the screen move your s pen from bottom to top= will act as if you were pressing the menu button(also works on any app).

Lol, i am pretty sure you are Troll Trolling. Or being "The boy who cried troll".

That first comment is not a troll comment by anyway, it was the users first response (and mine) and was in no way Offensive to the OP. You are the first comment with negativity in this thread as you just name called.

Anyway, i am not sure of you fellows but this information popped up the first time my phone turned on.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Yeap, mans got a point. Alot of us are so quick to check the "do not show again" box because it keeps popping up that we dont bother to realize that it has good info. I myself am guilty (very very guilty) of this. OP was just trying to be helpful and responders were polite about informing him of where this info can be found at.

I never use the S-Pen unless im taing screen shots or playing draw something. so these shortcuts are cool, but will probably be forgotton (again) by the time im in the position to use them. Once (or if) the pen gains more functionality then I will be more inclined to take advantage of this.

Thanks, Stulzerl!

The spirit of xda-dev is all about sharing information. We all benefit from the knowledge that the other users have. This website simply couldn't exist if users like stulzerl didn't share the tips, tricks and general knowledge of their devices.

Please do not disparage these attempts by adding negative comments and votes. In the words of Thumper, "If you don't got nothin' good to say, then don't say nothin' at all!".

I going to ask for something here. This thread currently has several negative votes. I have added 5 stars and it has only gone to 2. If you love xda and the sharing that is done here, I want you to click up there and get this thread as high as possible.

I'm sure the devs are going to lock this thread soon, since it turned negative early, but in the meantime the community has a chance to turn this around and show our love to stulzerl for having the courage and kindness to share his knowledge with the rest of us.

Okay, so ever since i got the ice cream update, my tablet KEEPS on crashing. And its gotten worse, initially things were okay but now everything makes the tablet crash. And it keeps forcing me to shut the launcher and then figure out some way to get the damn thing to restart!

Is this a software thing or should i contant asus and try to get a new tablet?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] johnwayne007:
Thats awesome, i have been testing Bootmanager on my KF and it seems to work pretty smooth. I like this concept though, if you want someone else to give it a try i'm willing. Definitely Good stuff though!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MainCourse:
Thanks!

Cool, looks great.

Thanks for making dual boot possible!

BTW, what is the ICS rom you're using?

and where do you get it?

:D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] johnwayne007:
The ICS roms are all around in this same forum. I have been using the EnergyRom and i highly recommend it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eldarerathis:
At some point I may try to write up what I did to create my dual boot setup, at which point you'd certainly be welcome to try it out. The thing is that I did mine by creating a second set of partitions which I named boot2, system2, userdata2 and cache2, then I put CM7 on these secondary partitions. In doing that, I also had to modify the boot image to point to the right places.

In other words, it's probably not for the faint of heart at this point, but if something easier can be worked out then maybe this will prove to be a useful bootloader. I might try to figure out how the NC/NT are doing their boot from SD card stuff since we could probably fake it with the /sdcard partition even though it's not a physically separate card (or something like that).

It's CyanogenMod 9, from nind's source tree. You can grab the latest unofficial build from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1411895.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] CodenameDeadpool:
Just to be clear...

We need to re-partition in order to user this?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
very nice! I was talking with fattire about porting cyanoboot but you pretty much made it out of fff, I'm astonished. bravo.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eldarerathis:
To use the alternate boot at this point, yes. I mainly did it just to see if I could do it (and for my own use) so it's not yet ideal for mass consumption. You could also use it strictly for getting into recovery if you wanted, you'd just have no use for the third option in the boot menu. Nothing damaging should happen if you were to accidentally choose "Alternate Boot" in that case. I've tested it after deleting my boot2 partition and it just hangs at the splash screen, forcing me to simply hold down the power button to restart it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
Sweet. Just out of curiosity, would it be possible to have an option to repartition the device built into the bootloader that works like the fastboot OEM format option? With say pre defined layouts
[Kindle Fire Android Development] aaricchavez:
This is pretty cool. I don't think i'll use it right now as it seems like too much work, but thanks alot for sharing this with us.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
I flashed this and it works as it should. definately check out how the NT forums utilize cyanoboot for dualboot. I love where this is going! I'm leaving this one on my device, I like the selection menu regardless of no fancy logo lol
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jmcoffey:
Could you just post the modified boot2 image?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eldarerathis:
I actually considered this idea, too, and I may still look into it as a third boot menu item to replace "Alternate Boot" for people who don't want a dual boot setup. I can definitely see how that would be useful to access from the boot menu if it's feasible.

Sure, have at it: http://www.mediafire.com/?wlv7yjeynilie6g
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uoY_redruM:
This could be particularly useful for me while 3.0 kernel is still in development. I don't like CM7 but I must use it for Netflix. I keep keep CM9 as the primary boot and use a clean CM7 as the alternate boot.

Hmmm....how hard is it to do the repartition?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jmcoffey:
thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Aahz Pervect:
That's my thinking exactly.

Perfect fit for having a main everyday ROM as well as whatever else for testing.

I copied your partition layout and cant get CM7 to boot. i flashed your boot2.img but to no avail... any help?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
I say wait, we need something similiar to OEM format, but for this. something like multiboot format and it can set this layout, redo OEM format to go back to stock tables.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eldarerathis:
How did you flash it, and how did you install CM7? For the record, I used dd to copy it over, i.e. from an adb shell in recovery:

# dd if=/sdcard/boot2.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 bs=512

Obviously make sure the partition you specify in 'of' is correct so you don't clobber something else. I haven't tried using fastboot to flash it, so I have no idea if that would work or not. To install CM7 I basically just extracted one of the flashable zips and copied everything in /system onto /system2.

I've been testing a few shell scripts to do the partitioning (and undo it) this evening. It seems to be working okay, so I'd like to try packaging them into zips that can be flashed via recovery.

So far it's promising, and it's actually pretty safe since the *only* partition that gets modified is /sdcard, so even an error doesn't make my system unbootable or anything. I also repackaged a CM7 build such that it can be flashed from recovery and it will successfully write to the secondary partition set, so no manual copying is required (yay!) but I had to modify the boot image and updater-script (meh).

Earlier today I experimented a bit with trying to boot from filesystem images kind of like BootManager does, but I haven't been able to make it work (it hangs at the boot splash). I'm not sure if it's worth investigating that angle further at this point.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jmcoffey:
I dd'd and everything.. I noticed that the boot.img you uploaded is significantly smaller than the one cm7 came with. Yours reads 3200 kb and the one it came with reads 10240 kb..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eldarerathis:
The CM7 one you're comparing it to must not be packed as a sparse image for some reason. Building CM7 from source spits out one around 3.2 MB:

thinkpad:/mnt/shared/CyanogenMod7/out/target/product/blaze$ ls -l | grep boot.img
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3272704 2012-02-29 18:07 boot.img

Maybe double check the partition numbers? Mine were actually out of order before, with boot2 being mmcblk0p16 but being physically between p12 and p13. The init.omap4430.rc in the boot image will be trying to mount by number instead of name (I had trouble getting it to work by name for some reason and just never tried it again).
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jmcoffey:
Success!! It was the numbers. This works amazingly!! Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eldarerathis:
Aha, nice! Glad it's working :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
this sounds very nice.

unfortunately a bit to advanced for me to try.

please excuse my ignorance.

but can/will, this process be simplified?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] eldarerathis:
This is what I'm working on now.

Update: I've already received a sufficient number of PMs from people willing to test, so I'm going to hold off on accepting any additional testers for now so that I can properly attend to any problems the testers may encounter. Thanks for the help everyone!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] uoY_redruM:
Sent you a PM :)

I have some free time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FroyoShark:
Would it be possible to use this with a stock based ROM, rather than CM7?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
the idea of this, is to dualboot any two OS's you choose. this thread is more of a proof of concept iin a way.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pbailey212:
With this dual boot do all of the Roms have to use the same kernel?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FroyoShark:
Yeah, I kind of figured that. But I was wondering if it was possible to do right now, since he's already gotten CM9 and CM7 dualbooted.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
of course, take any rom that's out there and edit the updater-script.

in due time, what u should end up seeing, is rom creators will/should have two rom's listed in release threads, main os, and altboot.

but, on a side note. the timer delay feels a hair long. with the fastboot delay at 5, then the countdown at 5, its a solid 10 seconds before the boot process starts. 5 for fastboot and 2-3 for selection should be fine.

and to elaborate on your idea for adding fastboot to selection, its just unnecessary. u don't need to "catch" fastboot at startup, u gotta run ur fastboot command then reboot, fastboot will catch at startup automatically
[Kindle Fire Android Development] StyleNSkillz:
Great

This looks awesome cant wait til its a little easier to apply, because I love CM9 but cant deal without HWA currently
[Kindle Fire Android Development] FroyoShark:
I guess making and restoring backups and deleting old ones is good enough for now. Not exactly efficient, but it works.
