That's definitely true. I am just trying to get direction. I appreciate your efforts.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
The first post to the CM9 thread has a link to the install instructions. I am pretty sure you need to already be on MTD before flashing CM9. Also qbking77 has videos on youtube showing how to install CM9.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Cm9 auto converts to mtd... at least I'm pretty sure it did the first time I flashed it from a bml rom.....

Does anyone know when the OTA for the Taiwan version of the HTC sensation will be coming out? Not the XE version. It seems like the XE ICS OTA has come out but what about the sensation....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ClockerXP:
Hello- I have had my Dinc for about 6 months (bought it used). It was my first real smartphone....my Pre didn't count ;-)

Since that time I have been really enjoying trying different ROMs etc. To me it is something that helps make my 'old' phone seem new and fun.

Eventually I will be getting a new phone as I am now off contract with Verizon. I will stick with Verizon but was wondering what you guys think the most Developer supported phone (released in the near future) will be in the future? Is the Droid Incredible 4G going to be the next Dinc and allow me to have lots of ROM'ING fun?

Thanks,

CxP
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enserio:
I'm selling my phone and wonder if a full wipe will take out the rom too. Any takers on this noob question?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
No, a full wipe will erase only the apps installed (and its data too), but the cROM will persist.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enserio:
Thanks for the help, Rober
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i'm_ever_dreaming:
select mounts and storages and wipe(format) system.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
that depends on the rom really. Doing a factory reset on some custom rooms will clause a boot loop as it removes some files need for the rom. Best bet would be to do a full wipe and reinstall the rom before you reboot.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] xxBrun0xx:
I've read on a few sites (most notably, gsmarena) that our glides have NFC. Can anyone confirm this? Might have to start using google wallet if it's true once we get ICS :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jbstanford:
I really hope it does, as that's part of the reason I bought it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to confirm. It's either A)Included in hardware but no driver/software is there to run/enable it, or B) Was going to be included, and then wasn't for some reason. I'm hoping A, though, because if you go to Samsung's website for the Capitvate Glide Support, you see "How Do I Use NFC On My AT&T Samsung CAPTIVATE™ GLIDE (SGH-i927) Mobile Device?" under the Support FAQs, but the link doesn't go to any page. Considering that that site didn't have anything for the phone until a little while ago, and it's theirs, I'm keeping my fingers crossed....

Can anyone else give some input?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
Could this work on our Glide and be the answer ?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1545751

Thread refers to NFC feature not actived on AT&T devices ... Glide is an "AT&T" device.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] xxBrun0xx:
As much as I love the development scene, AT&T could be releasing ICS any day, so may as well wait and see. It should be included in ICS (I would imagine, since it is on every other phone I've seen with NFC). I was offered to trade for an Evo 3d, but this phone just keeps impressing me more and more.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Aquethys:
We'll just see how fast they can push out the updates, although I'm relieved we were on the list :) "in the following months" :|
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
I am not sure but I thought the glide did not have it and only a version that was supposed to be released in Europe would. I have no idea if this is true but what I recall hearing. Also I heard that you could change your sim and get NFC when it becomes wide spread. This way any phone could get NFC via the sim card.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jbstanford:
Would someone smarter than me take a look at the FCC site here: https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas...e=N&application_id=658474&fcc_id='A3LSGHI927'

And see if it shows anything that indicates NFC or NFC compatibility?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Barragang:
are you guys kidding, right?

Yes, glide has NFC i ts BUILD IN the battery cover, how is nobody look at it, and the nfc beam its under de sim card, it shows up easily.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Pyho:
Uuuuuum. I'm about 95% certain this is false. Were the chip on the battery cover, there would have to be some kind of connection (most likely copper leads) to the phone itself. All I see on my battery door is a black sticker over the area that would cover the SIM card and MicroSD slot. No connection whatsoever. On top of that, the battery door seems much to thin to have an NFC chip incorporated on it.

As far as under the SIM card, all I see is the SIM card leads.

That thread on the Galaxy Note actually having NFC is due to the fact that AT&T disabled it on a software level. The hardware was all still there. The AT&T Galaxy Note's battery door still had an NFC chip and leads. Since the Captivate Glide is lacking that hardware, I doubt using that method would do anything. The one exception to this would be if the Captivate Glide has the NFC chip somewhere on the motherboard. I sort of doubt this, though, since I imagine someone would have noticed it before.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] DragonFlame49:
Will a nfc sim card in the future from att work for our captivate glide?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Aquethys:
It's not in the SIM card.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
As you are asking about something in the future no one really knows, but the concept is that SIM NFC should work for all phones. Guess only time will tell if this is so.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] magicninja:
I'm on rogers and on the inception rom and I can see that nfc ia available under wifi/data settings but I am not able to activate it...I installed the new ics rom but wasn't able to find it on there

[Samsung Captivate Glide] Nardholio:
Orange France has deployed NFC SIM cards to all its users. Hopefully someday AT&T will do the same. Otherwise, the Moneto is a 1 GB sd card with NFC but they are entirely sold out right now.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] DragonFlame49:
I thought moneto doesn't work with metal sd card slots. Which is what we have on our phones.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Dr. Mario:
Unfortunately, I doubt it. Otherwise I am happy to be proven wrong - I ran the NFC checker, it said no NFC. And you guys ought take gsmarena's comments on SGH-I927 with a grain of salt, they often get specification wrong (I don't know if it's intentional or not).

EDIT: NVM, I will be trying the NFC hack soon, hopefully ICS isn't going to have the seizure issue.

EDIT 2: ICS didn't crash (had to copy the tweak manually), and if it's PROVEN to have the NFC RF controller, then I guess with ICS there's no way to use it (AT&T intentionally removed the HAL for this thing - which mean even if NFC have the driver aside, it's disabled by other means).

EDIT 3 (and last one!): I finally copied the Google NFC manager to its rightful place correctly, and the NFC checker said SGH-I927 have it - I need to find a way to add the NFC settings in ICS (am using LiteROM) so I can turn this thing on.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Dr. Mario:
Almost there, trying to piece the puzzle into the NFC support for SGH-I927(R) phones. I will need to find the correct driver (had to use few Gingerbread HAL files), then we're good.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] santimaster2000:

[Samsung Captivate Glide] mewatashiakumoi:
Whoaa,that's cool man :D I wish u the best on activating it
[Samsung Captivate Glide] soadzoor:
any updates on this? so does it mean we have NFC (as hardware) in our phones, but no driver for it?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Sorry Dude the Glide has no NFC.. This has been verified many times.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Yea... Sorry... But if it's actually present, it's as useful as an Appendix at this point (no hardware driver).... There are aftermarket options, though.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] soadzoor:
What do you mean by aftermarket options?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
There is apparently few NFC transcievers made in microSD form, and there is certainly the USB NFC dongle (this phone already support USB-OTG) or bluetooth NFC pod that you can transparently link to it on your phone.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Don't forget the NFC on SIM. There are many manufacturers thinking of going this route and saleslady some in Europe already have.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charlesy006:
Hey everybody.

I've been using custom roms for a while now, but when I install a new one I need to disable fast dormancy with *#*#9900#*#* and change my HSDPA version with *#*#301279#*#* in order to get usable data speed with my carrier.

On roms that don't allow secret codes, I usually just replaced the phone.apk and contacts.apk with the stock versions and all would be fine, but on my current ROM, AndyX 8.0, it doesn't allow me to do this. I replace the files, reboot and get com.android.phone" error messages, no matter what files I try. I've tried wiping dalvik cache and fixing permissions but nothing works. Worked fine up until version 7.2 of this ROM.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
Use the matching apk files from the stock rom .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charlesy006:
Thanks for the reply. Still no luck, though :(

EDIT

Nevermind, got it :). I tried doing it via root explorer, fixing permissions, wiping cache, making my own CWM update .zip file. In the end, the only way it worked for me was replacing the files inside my ROM's full update package and flashing the whole thing again.

Thread Closed or Deleted? This is Development, Not General/Q&A -Read Before Posting-

Hi to all

This is just to remind you this is for development only. As this device builds momentum, i suspect this section might become busy. So i post this to remind you of the rules of the development section.

Please do not start Question or request threads. These threads go in the general section. I will usually close these threads if posted here.

Do not ask for ETAs on Roms, it just clutters up the thread and annoys the developer.

Anything i condone as spam will be instantly deleted.

Please do not post thank you. That is what the thanks button is for.

If anybody feels a post should be a sticky, please PM me with the reasoning.

Please report any posts that are out of place, or contain questionable content. They will be dealt with quickly!

So basically please only post ROM Development, Hacks, Mods, Fixes and Tutorials in this section.

Thank you for your attention, if you have any further questions. Please feel free to PM me or one of the moderation team.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjben:
When I receive a txt msg or other notification, while using headphones, that interrupts my mp3 audio, the music momentarily plays out the speaker immediately after the notification. It then correctly routes back to the headphones but there is that moment that it plays out of the speaker.

Is this common? I believe it started when I switched to GB. Running CleanGB EL30 MTD.

This can be particularly embarrassing while at work with ODB cranked up (think Office Space).

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
Try it with stock; make a backup then odin back to stock (be sure to check repartition to set the filesystem back to RFS) and see it if happens there too.

If it does then you'll know there is no issue with your current ROM.

If it doesn't then you'll have to work with toadlife for a fix.

After re-root, flash cleangb (so it converts to MTD) then restore your backup.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] swb90:
I've read many threads on the forum with conflicting views on Cache/RAM management. Generally, I use my phone (X10MP) only for SMS, calls and some very light web surfing (if I can find a hotspot).

Currently my RAM hovers somewhere between 60-80 MB used and 70-90 MB free.

I don't know the exact about of RAM I have though.

Just want to get some opinions if there is a need for me to clear the cache in the RAM. There are many applications that are cached in the RAM which I do not use very often. These range from things such as Media, Google Playstore and a few other things.

Is it possible to prevent these applications from being cached in the RAM? Especially since I do not use them often. I'm aware of apps that can kill such cached apps but the reviews for these management apps are kind of mixed.

Secondly, I'm just trying to fish for some suggestions on QR Code reader. Anyone have good recommendations? The ones on the Market have much mixed reviews so I just wanted to get a second opinion.

Any other applications that are beneficial/essential to help the X10MP run smoothly while not sacrificing battery life?

I'm currently using nAa kernel with MiniCM7 2.20 flashed.

Browser -> Dolphin HD

Gallery -> QuickPic

File Explorer -> Root Explorer (I can't seem to attach files via email using this though.)

Thank you =)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THE_Roen:
I'm having problems setting certain values at boot.

Writing an init.d script and placing it in system/etc/init.d/ doesn't do anything.

Editing the existing 99nexusinit in system/etc/init.d/ doesn't do anything.

The only way I can change things is directly using root explorer to navigate to each file and change the values. When I reboot, I lose all changes.

I'm running AOKP m4 with Glados V1.25 Kernel.

I've heard that there exists an app that enables init.d support for AOKP, anyone else know anything about this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vincom2:
What kernel are you coming from? I think the glados update.zip contains a script that checks your previous kernel's init.rc to see if it supported init.d scripts. If it didn't, then glados will be installed without init.d support. The stock AOKP kernel has init.d support I believe... are you by any chance flashing faux123's reset kernel before flashing glados? The reset kernel doesn't seem to have init.d support and will prevent your glados from running init.d scripts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THE_Roen:
I've been using either franco or Glados. I came from franco m2, then before that was Glados, and I started off with franco nightly.

Should I just wipe and put on AOKP m4 and Glados to see if I have this problem?

Most of the apps on my nook tablet will no longer update. I get the error that there is no room left on the device, except that there is room on all three storage devices. I have over 5 gbs left on the sd card, i have most of the "/media" partition left and i have over half of the b+n restricted section left, most of it in fact. I have deleted a lot of the apps i had. I even moved one of them to the sd card and then tried to move it back and i got the same error as the updates. Any ideas would be helpful.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] RuneMason1:
Not sure what exactly it was when i rooted it. i think it might be cm7. it was an sd root. i found a youtube video walkthrough for it. the zip i downloaded was "SD_ROOT_NTV4"

I double checked the space left on my storage. i have 90% left on B&N content Storage and 88% of Other Storage.

I also have 5+ gigabytes left on my 32 gig sd card.

I had the same problem. I also rooted using Albert Wertz' sd card root vidoes. I found I was able to update some apps by "archiving" via the nook app library (hold down on app then choose 'archive' from the options), rebooting, and then unarchiving the program.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slackmachine:
Hi, I recently flashed liquidsmooth 1.25 on my CDMA GN. Today I got around 3 hours and 20 minutes of on screen time, and the screen is taking up about all the battery (69% is the screen). Then 5% cell standby, 5% phone idle, and a few lower things. The main question, since the screen is about the only reason for lack of battery life, will using a different kernel change anything? I'm really just wondering if using a new kernel would actually make a difference. Thanks so much!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
No, changing a kernel will not affect the screen-on time that drains the battery. Putting your brightness on it's lowest setting will though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slackmachine:
Thank you! So trying franco's kernel or leankernel won't really have much benefit? And one more somewhat OT question: is there any advantage to underclocking and undervolting with a new kernel? I'm using the regular liquidsmooth settings to underclock to 920mhz and undervolt to 1150 mV.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
AFAIK LiquidSmooth is already using leankernel as it's stock kernel... (Imoseyon = leankernel)

No its gone from the drawer, too.

Thanks for the link. It installed fine. However, after accepting license agreement the Market loading icon freezes and vending crashes. I tried clearing Market data...same problem. The icon in the drawer also says Play Store. Which is weird because it is not the play store icon but a faded icon with an SD card on it.

Different phone, same topic - Google Play Store.

Noobish question:

I downloaded vending.apk from here at XDA

Installed it over my stock Android Market v2.3.3

With the old Android Market, it showed in Settings>Applications as "Market"

Since manually updating to Google Play Store:

now when I go into Settings>Applications

It is showing as "Com.android.vending..."

Is this normal?

Shouldn't it show as "Google Play Store" or something like that?

---------- Post added at 02:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 AM ----------

{Fixed} Disregard above question.

Just goes to show ya how useful XDA Search button can be.

From another thread I got the simple idea to clear the process's cache and stored data, reboot phone ... tadda ... now Settings > Applications is showing Google Play Store.

Google Play icon, widget, updating functions - all available and working.

Thanks to all the hard workin' folks here at XDA :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] anneoneamouse:
Maybe something in the Dalvik cache is causing problems? In /data/dalvik-cache I see system@app@com.android.vending.apx@classes.dex

Can you clear the cache through the stock recovery menu? It's been so long since then, that I've forgotten.

In a (sort of) related note- my Google Play experience was that an expired credit card was causing RPC errors when attempting purchase books. I had to go into google wallet and delete the expired card (thanks to the Google support ticket team for the solution), now all is well.

Anyway, hope this helps,
