[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TurocK ONE:
Hi there. New firmware ICS XXLPQ, Samsung GT-I9100 can record video with stereo sound, because it uses both microphones.

I make a video test and Stereo sound is inverted, L R channel is inverted. When i try to record with phone positioned opposite ( to correct stereo channels) then the image is upside down.

You have the same problem?

What can i do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You flashed the firmware upside down .

Nice one, jje :))
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TurocK ONE:
What a joke. (trolls detected)

I dont speak speak English natively to write correctly.

Ask again: when record video (with ICS firmware), audio channel stereo is inverted or is fine? In my case, stereo (L R channel) are inversed. „UPSIDE DOWN” ha ha ha (not funny).

Are cineva pe aici instalat ICS oficial? Să încerce să filmeze ceva și să verifice dacă sunetul stereo este inversat. În loc să se audă in boxa/difuzorul drept, se aude în stânga și invers. Mulțumesc.

mda... si acum mai e problema asta la toti... si la ICS oficial si la cyanogenmd 9 sau altele, din cauza driverelor facute de Samsung. poate se va repara cand va aparea ics oficial bazat pe 4.0.4, pe undeva zicea ca lureaza la el (and stick to english next time;D)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mopardroid:
Picked up my nexus on Thursday took it home rooted it and loaded up AOKP milestone 4 and franko kernel milestone 1 #51 ...

Yesterday was my first full day of use I did some heavy downloading of apps and things for a good 45 minutes of the day.

At the end of the day my battery lasted 14 hours with about 3.5 screen on time on a single charge which is a huge upgrade from my dhd. So I'm very happy. I'm loving the nexus so far.

One question I did have though is... when viewing the screen on an angle it turns looks like it turns almost greenish / teal colour ... is that normal for samoled screens?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GuestK0097:
it's not the case with my galaxy nexus. even at an angle of almost 180 degree the colors still are the same.

What is it? Okay, well kenjesse put it best with this description : " Pdroid is an app that lets you modify permissions app by app with out breaking them. You also have the option of "spoofing" the permissions by sending randomly generate data rather than your phones actual sim, meid, phone #, etc.

As the app does not need to run constantly in the back ground it has virtually no impact on battery.

To check out the original thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19570074

On the next page of this thread I have posted the patch zip necessary to install the pdroid app on CM7 for DX2 only!!! I will make patch zips for other roms upon request but it can be done easily by following kenjesse's instructions below. After flashing the zip just download and install pdroid from the play store ......viola! Thanks for stopping by and happy flashing!
[Motorola Droid X2] grnsl2:
Looks like a pretty cool program. I've read other post that reference making changes like this, always wondered how. Wonder if this is one way, I'd assume there are other ways too.
[Motorola Droid X2] Superm@π:
Disregard this comment.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Just got done installing this and it seems to be working great. I'm running CM7 with no special tweaks other than Moon Shadows wifi fix, following instructions from op here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1357056

this is what I did:

1. DL Pdroid Patcher zip to PC (Win7 in my case)

2. Extract Pdroid Patcher exe file and run

3. Browse to update-cm-7.2.0.-RCO-daytona-KANG-public-beta1.zip (cm7 ROM) and select.

4. Click "Patch" (program takes about 2 minutes to create required patch zip file as well as restore file if you choose to uninstall Pdroid later)

5. copy the 2 created zip files (PDroid-v1.31-update-cm-7.2.0-RCO-daytona-KANG-public-beta1.zip & PDroid-RESTORE-update-cm-7.2.0-RCO-daytona-KANG-public-beta1.zip) to your external SD Card

6. Boot in our BSR BACKUP...BACKUP DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!!!

7. Flash the PDroid zip file

8. I did not wipe anything as it is not stated to do so in the OP install instruction... I did flash cm7 reRecovery before I rebooted just to be safe.

9. Reboot your phone, go to market and install Pdroid.

I tested by removing several permissions for my Fox News app which doing thru cm7 causes the app to break, using PDroid the app still worked. Not sure how to test beyond that.

I did notice that the reboot stayed on the cm7 animation for a while before the phone came back up as if a dalvik wipe had been done.

Hope this helps and if you break it it's your fault not mine and remember...BACKUP
[Motorola Droid X2] Superm@π:
You are awesome! Thank you very much for giving this attention, I can't wait to follow the steps you've listed when I get home. Thanks again
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Quick update... there is a setting in the app to display anytime an app request access to private data. With this turned on it shows access being denied to my Fox News app and the app runs fine. This really is an awesome app.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
No worries... Let us know if you get it working.

He probably should update the op title. Pdroid is an app that lets you modify permissions app by app with out breaking them. You also have the option of "spoofing" the permissions by sending randomly generate data rather than your phones actual sim, meid, phone #, etc.

Beautifully put. Hey, I would update the op title but it's not letting me from the mobile app. I will later when I'm on my laptop.

Hey, how did you spoof the permissions? Don't see that option within the settings. I just see symbols without descriptions (gear, bar graph, check, ect...)?

Just to add, I don't know if it's just in my head or not but I feel like my phone is moving way faster After changing all the permissions that I did.

........and last, I'm going to post the patch zip file for cm7 dx2 when I get home so all anyone needs to do is flash it and download pdroid from the market (Google play (stupid name)....whatever). Okay all done.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Settings options are:

Check = allow

Graph = random spoof

Gear= set the spoof value

Slashed Circle= block

And then there is a check box in the top right corner to enable notifications for just that app.

Okay, here are the zips. Just flash the first of the 2 zips in CM7 recovery and then install the Pdroid app. The second zip is just to restore.

Thanks for the help Kenjesse!
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
So please help me clarify what setting should I set the apps to? Also do I need to do them one at a time or can I do it by batch?
[Motorola Droid X2] Superm@π:
Okay, what I have been doing is blocking ALL permissions for any given app and then trying to run it. I then look for any error messages and go back and enable only those specific permissions to allow the app to function properly. You'll get a system once you use it a bit. .....and unfortunately there is no batch function. It is a very cool app though once you play with it and definitely enable the function where you can see it blocking and granting permissions. It's pretty cool!

........and someone please tell me how to change the title of this post please

[Motorola Droid X2] Xb0i:
so the second zip p restore is to get rid of it?
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Flashing The update zip makes the required changes for the app Pdroid that you get from the market to run properly with the cm7 ROM. IT WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU ARE ON CM7.	If you later uninstall Pdroid you flash the restore zip to remove the changes made by the update zip.

I believe it is done this way so the app can work without root permission and therefore doesn't have to run in the background....I could be wrong though and as with any mod you should go to the linked thread above and research it for yourself.

Alright man, I don't understand why but when i'm trying to use the patcher on Eclipse 2.1 it keeps telling me it's not a valid gingerbread rom. If someone else can get on this and figure it out that would be real helpful. I'm lost.......

Wow I would have been totally lost then!!! Hopefully someone will chime in soon.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
On the 1st page you will find the links to the SVYAT's thread who is the creator of this mod. I'm pretty sure he states it was created using GB 2.3.4 but should work with GB 2.3.3 and 2.3.5. ICS is not supported at this time.

I would suggest you check out svyat's thread as there are some other cautions regarding conflicts with other mods that modify "certain" files in your system directory and how to work around those issues. That said if your ROM is based on anything other than GB 2.3.3/4/5 this will not work as of now. You may find work arounds on svyat's thread to help you.

Sorry I can't be of more help but my knowledge is limited to the noob level for the most part. Please check out the original thread as this is absolutely worth the effort to get working.

Here is the patch zip file and restore zip file created from the eclipse v2.1 ROM zip file.

DO A NAND BACKUP DO A NAND BACKUP

1. Boot into recovery and flash Pdroid-v1.31-X2-Eclipse-v2.1.zip

2. No wipes are necessary

3. I flashed ReRecovery when I did this on my CM7'ed X2 before rebooting

4. Reboot to Eclipse go to the Play Store and install Pdroid app

If this does not work the patcher generated this advice when creating the patch file: TRY MOUNTING /SYSTEM IN RECOVERY (CWM) IF FLASHING THE PATCH DOES NOT WORK

If it is still a no go then I'd recommend posting a request for help at the original op thread referenced on the 1st page.

The recovery file is used to remove the patch if you uninstall the Pdroid app.

Good luck...:)

Ok winged it on the mount and in recovery it says that system is mounted. I tried it initially while mounted. Should I unmount system and try. What does mounted mean any way.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Can not really say... Are you using v1.31 or v1.32? I'm using v1.31. v1.32 came out A few days after I applied thir Mod and since I haven't had any issues I haven't updated.

I'm as unsure as you in this area, but I would think it has to do with obtaining permission to read and write to

/system. If you are mounted I don't see how unmounting /system would help. This is quoted from svyat's original thread:

"Patch Installation Requirements:

ROOTED device

For HTC devices: S-OFF ([TOOL] One click ENG S-OFF for HTC Desire HD)

ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0.2.6 or newer

If you "integrated sys Dalvik into ROM" with Titanium Backup, you will have to undo it"

Best advice at this point i can give is go here and ask for help, sorry I can not be of more help.

I'm about to go full noob here:

Is it safe to assume the Eclipse patch for 2.1 will not work on 1.3? I'm guessing it it won't. I've looked around to see if a patch has been created for Eclipse 1.3 but haven't found one....... unless I have been looking in the wrong area :confused:
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
According to the OP thread there isn't much difference between the two. Also there do seem to be cases where someone can generate the patch on a laptop but not there pc running the same version of windows. Or one can create a patch for a specific rom and someone else has trouble.

Anyway I still believe this is a very worthwhile addition to your phone and if your having trouble getting it installed go on over to svyat's thread and get some help from the Dev, link is a few posts back.

Sent via Tapatalk on my CM7'ed DX2
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Correct!! The patch file needs to be created from your specific rom's zip file. You can download the Patcher (see 1st page for link to svyat's original thread) and create it yourself... if your not able I should have time this evening to do it for you.

[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
The attached patch & restore zip files were made using PdroidPatcher v1.32, might work better for you. Other thing to bear in mind if you have made modifications to your framework dir files this patch may not work for your setup. As always go to the referenced original op thread for more info. Good luck and remember to NAND BACKUP!!!
[Motorola Droid X2] tallyforeman:
The 1.3 patch worked for me. But I just loaded 2.1 and downloaded the new patch and couldn't get it to work. It said there was a problem with the file. I deleted the file and downloaded it again to try, but it is still a no go. Could be operator error too though.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Have you tried using the newest 2.1 Eclipse patch file I posted above? The one I posted last week was made with the previous version of PdroidPatcher. You can tell the difference by the file name Pdriod-v1.31------- and

Pdriod-v1.32------- Other things that can cause a problem have to do with framework dir mods... I copied this from the original OP thread:

How do I make a patch for my device after I have flashed some other mods?

If your other mods DO NOT replace any of the three files: framework.jar, services.jar or core.jar in /system/framework, you can just create a patch normally based on your original ROM file.

Otherwise you will need to extract those three files from your device (use a root file manager or adb pull), put them into your ROM zip (also in /system/framework) and then create a PDroid patch based on the ROM zip.

If you are still stumped your best option IMHO is go here and request help:

For any of you running PDroid you should

Doing some reading through the whole app thread, there is an issue with the current 1.32 putting 90% of the ROMs though a boot loop.

It is okay! I found an app that may help. hxxp://www.xda-developers.com/android/botbrew-used-to-port-pdroid-to-more-devices/

All we need is to have someone who knows the source of one of the ROMS put in a opkg to install it through this app. I, unfortunately don't know that much of C coding to write the patch into our ROMs like that.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Well it worked for me so I'm hoping it will work for the rest of you. I used the 1.31 version of Pdroid to create the patched zip files and it worked. Good luck and remember NAND BACKUP before you do anything...

Also I did not wipe anything after flashing the patch file... and lastly it takes a few minutes for the phone to get past the cm7 boot animation so be patient.
