[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exiquio:
I would like to think I am very familiar with GNU/Linux/UN*X permissions, but I don't have the foggiest idea as to what "fix permissions" does in Android recoveries and apps.

Is anyone willing to give an accurate overview of what's happening? If so, please do. Finally, can anyone point me towards some opensource code that implements such a task? That would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tingtan:
In order not to have applications to affect others, Android creates a new user/group to store data for each app and the permission information is keep in packages.xml. fix_permissions is to ensure permission integrity.

ROM Manager bundles fix_permissions shell script (I am sure others too):

Stock Recovery Permission Fix?

How do you 'fix permissions' if you have only stock recovery?

I thought I needed to do this with my Titanium backup file.

I read that you must move the file into the system directory (off of SD Card or EXT SD Card) to do this, however this can be a problem and an inconvenience for such a large file, is there another recommended way of doing this if your Rooted but pure stock?

(Ideally this would alleviate the need to move the file, or at least would take care of the manual process if it's not possible to rectify in place.)

shell script to fix permissions

This is my first shell script but it fixed the permissions on an app that started crashing after I upgraded to android M

it takes the /data/data/XXX folder name as its only parameter

This script only repairs the owner:group of the data files

Please send comments - this script can be used by anyone in any way

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" != "" ]; then

#The folders in /data/data each have a different owner. The next line gets the owner and the strips the whitespace
appusername=$(stat -c "%U" /data/data/$1 | xargs)

#The next line constructs the chown command to repair the permissions for all the files in the target folder
fixperm="chown -R $appusername:$appusername /data/data/$1/*"

#Display the command to the user
echo "$fixperm"

#Uncomment the next line if you would like the script to fix the permission
#eval $fixperm

Hey just wanted to share that are skyrockets can use BLuetooth mice and keyboards.

they pair and connect and works great,

i run a streaming server from home and take my phone with me everywhere. i like to listen to my music, tv shows, and movies and its awesome streaming them through my phone.

but most of all its about the fact that they hook up to our HDTV's you do need the MHL adapter found one on amazon for 8.99 + shipping =12.89 works great

also found a mini bluetooth keyboard with a dpad on it. cost 49.99 + shipping

i connect my phone to my friends tv anytime i stay at a hotel ect.

are phones work great as a little theater pc. hook it up to a tv. use the mouse and keyboard to operate it and you can do anything with it watch movies in this case the ones at my house on my theater pc i have access to. not everyone will have that but you can still have movies on sd card ect. I even play angry birds on my 42" sitting on the couch with this. love the new Skyrocket and wanted to share. didnt know how many people were aware of the keyboard and mouse being able to connect to our phones and were able to make our phone function with them. just like a pc.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jeriku:
I bought the Mini Rii over a year ago, and maybe I've got a bad one, maybe I'm hard on it, but it didn't last. The quality isn't great, and once the battery starts to die it gets wonky. In the beginning recharging fixed it and or cycling the power switch, but now it takes several key presses to make it wake and respond.

The power cycling wasn't a big deal, and I didn't mind, until the microscopic switch's thumb knob fell off and was lost forever. Now I need a tooth pick or paper clip to cycle the power.

Another thing it does is lose it's mind on the cap lock. Sometimes it will cap lock, without the cap lock light on, and you have to turn cap locks on (light comes on) to get lower case. If that makes any sense.

The touch pad is also less responsive now too.

It didn't cost much, but I still expected it to hold up better than it did. This is just my experience, so take it as you will.

At this point I have a half working PC remote, and great laser pointer for the cat.

Hello,

I would like to try out a Win7 phone.

Reading the forum, it seems as if I should buy something used (eBay) and wait for a Win8 phone. I'm on AT&T 3G (USA).

To get the full/best experience of a Win7 phone, what would you recommended -- used, 3G, current OS, etc?

Thanks!!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Alcoholic:
Wait for nokia lumnia 900 and htc titan II.

[Windows Phone 7 General] lovenokia:
Probably any 2012 windows phone will get the os upgrade to Apollo(aka windows phone 8) and there is a great chance that gen 1 phones will also get the upgrade.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lomax50:
So far, so the implementation schedule of windows phone has been accomplished by MS, without problems. Nothing indicates that it can't continue well into the future, and also updates. In my opinion, WP7 is a good bet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sloosley:
Thanks, @lomax50. What would you recommended to test WP7, wait for Titan II (pretty expensive!) or look for something used. If used, which phone(s)?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Alcoholic:
Yes. Unlike android Microsoft products use the same hardware so upgrades are pushed together. There is no need to specifically code each phone nor is there a skin and carrier bloatware on top.

---------- Post added at 08:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

Lumnia 900 is supposed to be $99 on contract. You'd be a fool to pay $600 for it via aftermarket.
[Windows Phone 7 General] anseio:
Not necessarily true. Carrier subsidies are more than recovered in high-priced data plans and what not.

It's in my better interest to pay for an unbranded phone, as getting the same model on contract will cost me at least $30 more a month and I'd lose my unlimited data.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sloosley:

I was in the same boat.

I got a HTC Radar very cheap ($100 Sim Unlocked) to see if I liked Mango or not.

I think I do (i'll like it more once WindowBreak works for more models)

Now I'm looking at getting the HTC Titan as I want a bigger screen.

For me the Titan II isn't worth it as its primary differances are the camera and the LTE speeds.

Over here we don't have LTE yet and I'm not massively interested in the Camera.

The Lumia 900 looks good, but I am worried it'll be like the 800. the bezel around the screen is far too big on the 800 and it looks the same on the 900

the Titan has a nice small are around the screen and no sharp edges

the titan gets my vote.
[Windows Phone 7 General] reeg420:
Aside from a few differences with hardware 1st Gen phones I think are the way to go. Really depends on what you want to do with it. Apparently chevron labs is sold out of tokens so developer unlocking would be a little more difficult for 2nd Gen phones(HTC as least)

I still use my hd7 and love it. Nokia 900 looks like a super nice phone but I can't dev unlock it without a hassle. Never mind interop and full unlock.

Used HD7 IMHO.
[Windows Phone 7 General] connor-:
Hi, Sorry to kinda hi-jack but doesn't warrant a new thread :)

[Windows Phone 7 General] Adellheid:
Same boat as OP. I was thinking of getting Omnia W phone as there is too much risk getting Nokia phones. The only drawbacks i see are worse case and less memory, but it's much cheaper and i don't see any reason for it not to get apollo upgrade as it has the same specs as Lumia 800.

[Windows Phone 7 General] Adellheid:
Well, from what i read around almost every second lumia 800 got hardware faults like bad display(blots in darkness, color lines), audio port problems(metal like sounds even with latest update), camera problems(pink blot when trying to make a foto of something white), etc. I don't relly want to spend monthes sending my phone in SC, recieving almost no fix(as noted by guys on my local forum) and sending it back again.

Then you have pentile display boasting those "lines" when read black text on white background, regular restarts nokia can't fix for monthes, sms number bug and few others.

Could you describe it's troubles? There no Omnia W's section on XDA and i couldn't find any bad reviews about it around the net.
[Windows Phone 7 General] OndraSter:
I've had the chance to try out Tania few days ago, alongside with Nokia Lumia (not Lumnia :D) 900 and 610 and it is not that bad phone, if the price is relatively okay, it is winner. The 4.3" screen is nothing like HD2 or HD7 of course, the colors are a bit washed out.

Not so sure about the 4GB storage - you are left with about 2.5GB space.

[Windows Phone 7 General] Freypal:
Hmm - I've heard of a few issues with Nokias but most are software related and fixed with the updates.

Mine is an Omnia 7 - I'm now on a replacement handset. Below is a summary of some of the issues i've had. I've got a thread on MS answers regarding the data issue that is the most discussed topic on there and yet no word from MS or Samsung. They simply don't care and so I will never buy another Samsung device.

1) Data connection randomly drops needing a soft-reset. This has happened as many as 5 times in 1 day.

2) In dark condtions photos randomly turn out with coloured horizontal lines across them

3) Battery meter messes itself up after a soft-reset (combined with the need to keep resetting my phone due to the data connection this is massively annoying)

4) My bluetooth used to work fine - Now it will only work reliably if WiFi is turned off.

5) Volume is stupidly quiet when playing music through an Aux Input.

6) After a soft-reset sometimes the phone just hangs with a black screen showing the battery meter - battery pull then required.

7) Phone had at least 60% charge, it started to think it had none so wouldn't boot up. Just got stuck in a loop of boot up - instantly power off.

8) if the battery is out for any period of time and i boot the phone up. On the first boot data won't work. I need to soft reset it once for it to initiate.
[Windows Phone 7 General] connor-:
You had a chance to see underneath the battery cover thingy? Curious as to whether it has a hidden MicroSD I can upgrade if I need the extra space (Doubt I will having a music collection of around 40 songs (and listen to 10 xD) Ordered a Tania cause I feel between that and HD7 theres probably more chance of updates, since the HD7 is getting quite old! Pity HD2 has no official WP7 since its a very versatile phone and can also run android, think I shall have to keep my old Wildfire :) The Lumia is beautiful, but a little out of my non-contract budget :P
