[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krunk_Kracker:
I have successfully ported a rom to the Kindle Fire (link in signature if anyone cares.) Although I am proud of that, it basically just makes me a copy and paste master, and not a rom developer.

I'd like to take that same rom I ported, and actually build it for the device. I have the device and vendor trees for it, and I have synced the source, but I have no idea how to put it all together to build it.

I have come across this in my Googling, http://www.netmite.com/android/mydr...build_new_device.html#androidBuildNewFileTree , but it doesnt seem to be exactly what I need.

Can someone point me in the right direction on how to get this going?

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tattedupboy:
Even though I'll probably be on to a new phone by the time the Inc 2 receives its OTA ICS update, I nevertheless want to be able to upgrade to it when it arrives. My question is, will the nandroid backup I have (Android version 2.3.3 with superuser but none of the bloat removed) be able to receive it? Or will I need to go through the whole process of unrooting and restoring 2.3.4 first?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
you wouldnt want to take the ota regardless as it will likely block root and might bring an hboot that cannot be reverted from

id imagine we d get a leak of the ota ahead of time or just wait for a dev to make an update.zip version of it once its pulled from the servers or a phone
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] killface0:
I also had a question about the OTA update. I HTC unlocked and rooted with SU and CWM recovery. I do have some of the bloated apps uninstalled with Titanium Backup. As soon as I heard that the upgrade for ICS was coming out, I flashed the stock recovery from the most recent RUU. Does anyone forsee any problems recieving the ICS OTA with this setup?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] WhistlingDog:
Well, not sure I would have done it that way... with the stock recovery you lose CWM's capabilities waiting for Vzw to release the ICS upgrade, and that could take months and months. Additionally, if you accept the ICS OTA my guess is that you'll lose root as well, and be stuck with Vzw's typical bloatware until you re-root. And we don't know if the new OTA will be immediately re-rootable. Some of the previous upgrades have required reverting to earlier versions.

As nitsuj17 remarks a few posts earlier, I would imagine that once the ICS upgrade for the Dinc2 is released, somebody will quickly get hold of it and post up a version for us rooted folks and we can just flash it from CWM. And use TB or AntTek App manager or whatever tool is your favorite to freeze or delete the Vzw crap. That's what I'm planning to do...

love the choices we have in this country, even though giffgaff had an outage for 6 hours today they kept there website well informed with updates every couple of minutes so great customer support.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
Giff Gaff sounds pretty great but I could never afford a sim-free phone + a monthly fee. Loving Orange, I wouldn't say they're expensive though. You also get free music with Deezer and free food/drink from EAT which you left off :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jameslepable:
Thing is with sim-free the is a large upfront cost but over the two years you save a couple £££'s. When I got mine the contract was going to be £40 pm and £100 upfront, with less mins texts and internet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zenzic:
GiffGaff no longer offer the unlimited data unless you get the £18 goodybag. For £15 / £12 / £10 you get 5gb / 3gb / 1gb of data respectively. On top of unlimited texts and 500 minutes (2000 minutes with the £18 bag)

Hi All,

Hope some one can help me.

I rooted my HTC EVO 3D GSM on ROGERS about 6 months ago,

Problem is, I can't install updates and the phone is acting up very

weird.

I want to Un-Root my phone and get it back to stock or original the

It's not hard to unroot, it's just a matter of flashing the original RUU for the phone.

But, why would you unroot it? Just install a custom ROM on the phone.

Wow... Thanks... Mx video is the best video player i've tried :D I just have one question. Is there any way the xoom can play 1080p mkv video files. They lag. 720p video plays perfectly. If there is no way to play 1080p mkv's, is there a format of full hd video file that can be played on the xoom. I know that full hd videos have a larger resolution than the display on xoom, but i have a lot of recorded full hd videos that i would like to keep on the xoom (so i can copy them to other computers if needed) but there is no point if the xoom can't play them and i would not like to convert to 720p. I'm willing to convert to some other 1080p format that can be played on the xoom.

Is there anything i can do?
[Xoom General] akaempf:
Not that I know of. However that does not mean it cannot be done. Search tje forums and net. You might find your answer.
[Xoom General] timrock:
here is what i do. for 720p mkv, diceplayer will play the video flawless. for 1080p, i convert my movies (they are about 4gb per blu ray movie) to mp4 using dvdcatalyst, which has a few xoom presets. so yes, you can convert a 1080p video to mp4 and still keep it as 1080p. it should play with no problems using mxvideoplayer.
[Xoom General] majinzen:
I prefer Dice player over Mx player. Try it out. Never had problems.

yep I bought MX and it had a few juddery moments with some video... Dice player was very smooth.. I bought that then used Mizuu as a front end and set the default player to Dice...

On the gaming side of things, I think Samurai vs Zombies looks and plays wonderfully on a tablet :D
[Xoom General] iamanoopmk:
Well, I use Rockplayer and Moboplayer to play my movies. My experience has been mixed. Some movies ocassionally produce some lag but others play smoothly. I attribute it to bad encoding more than anything. Otherwise Xoom is definitely capable of playing full HD videos but it downscales it to 720p on the fly and hence conversion should not be necessary. I have about 5 video players for this reason. Its a software shortcoming and different players play different mkv files properly. Till now I have not faced the need to convert my HD videos. In fact, I watched the movie Tangled in blu-ray 1080p format while reading it from an external hard drive and it played as smoothly as any other video.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ge0rG:
I try to get as many devices supported as possible. However, some ROMs provide major trouble in doing so (e.g. by breaking logcat or disabling some features). So far I have no reports for the Galaxy phone, only for Galaxy S II, where the alert works well with the Samsung ROM.

If you test out the free version, and use the "Request device support" feature right after getting a forwarded call, I can have a look if your phone/ROM combination can be supported. Also, the detection mechanism is the same for free and paid, so you can use the free version to see if the paid one would work for you.

Regarding ROMs, I have had the best experience with CM so far... :)

I have CM9 running ICS on my Triumph, loving it. The only question I have is where are the locations for the powerup and powerdown audio files? I found the audio folders but didn't know where to put a powerup file. I'm assuming it would go into /system/media, possibly into /audio/ui and just rename it to Powerup.mp3.

[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
It is not just in the two ROMs you mentioned, I have been experiencing this problem myself with YouTube videos along with other video sites. I have even had it with two or three videos I downloaded to ny SD card. I am completely stock right now, I have not even S-offed my current Sensation. It is the replacement Sensation T:Mobile sent me when my original Sensation died. So I decided to wait for the OTA ICS update before doing any hacking around on it.
[HTC Sensation] The-Last-Hylian:
Ah cheers guys,

I'll just restart my phone, or does it need to be a HBOOT restart?
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Well to actually preform a restart you need to go to Settings then Power and uncheck the box by fastboot. If it is not unchecked your Sensation does not completely power down during a shut down or a restart and the problem may still persist after the restart. And just to add when you uncheck fastboot in Settings a restart by holding the power button and selecting restart or a restart from HBOOT is the same.

Hi

I've just installed BIG-IP F5 Edge Portal. I meant to install the Client but made a booby.

Now I can't uninstall the Portal, as to do so I need to Disable it from Device Administrator, but I can't find the settings for it under ICS on my Sensation

Instructions say

Menu -> Settings -> Location & Security -> Device Administrator, then disable BIG-IP.

Now ICS has Location and it also has Security, but no sign of Device Administrator. Until I can disable it I can't uninstall the app as everything is greyed out.

Any ideas?

Hi guys :)

I am new here and i have, for me, a BIG proglem...

My boss gave me his phone, i9100, to update it on ICS 4.0.3. I updated phone through Odin, everything went ok, my boss was happy :)

Then, he noticed some minor bugs and he asked me to downgrade phone on GB 2.3.4

I used checkfus to download 2.3.4 for our contry and restored GB 2.3.4. Again, everything went ok.

Then, my smart boss, connects phone to KIES and KIES showed error that he, KIES, cannot recognize phone?!

Now my boss is freaking out because he thinks he lost warranty and he is blaming me about his "loss" of warranty.

When i entered, Volume UP+Home+Power, it shows "0" in counter and "samsung official"?

What seems to be a problem? How can i restore GB so phone can be recognized through KIES?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonynz:
Your boss sounds like a real dickhead.

It's probably a difference in region, hence Kies won't allow you to upgrade.

Samsung are very relaxed regarding user firmware upgrades. I had 10+ counts in firmware upgrade counts and Samsung still fixed my phone free of charge (faulty proxy sensor)

Just tell your boss to chill out.

Kies update after Odin flashing

Just flash your phone into older firmware and update via OTA. After OTA update, Kies will support update for your firmware.

Here is how I did it.

1. Flash XWKL3 (2.3.3) by Odin

2. Update via OTA (Under About phone=>Software update) <- Still Gingerbread

3. Connect to PC and now it is supported by Kies.

4. Update to ICS using Kies.

If you encountered update failure in Step 2, don't worry and keep trying until it success.

Also, I noticed that my battery life is not really as advertised. I charged my battery to full and 5 hours later it was down to 60% and what I did was listen to MOG music and Slacker Radio and download a few apps. Is there anything I did wrong? I got my phone yesterday and charged to 80% before taking it to Verizon store to activate. It was down to 60% 4 hours later and that's when I recharged it to full.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] qoncept:
There is no led indicator for a charging battery. That's normal.

As far as battery life, the biggest factors are how much your screen is turned on, how bright it is, and 4g usage, in that order. 40% in 4 hours does seem on the high side but definitely not impossible. Is it a razr or razr maxx?
