Can we either post because you are interested or let this thread die without flaming. The other thread was closed. In the skyrocket forum they can have ICS speculation threads or threads on the note without getting them closed because they only have one or two people who flame everyone.

If this is true this would be a good thread to organize a system dump but that wont happen if it gets closed due to flaming.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Christ1119:
To be fair, they probably don't know of it's release anymore than we do (if some reps even know what an Ice Cream Sandwhich is..).

If it's being rolled out now or in the next few days it would explain Telus' site update saying the update would be coming soon. It could also be that the OP saw that too and figured some good ol' trolling was in order.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Step666:
As with the other thread, this one is now closed - it's of little use and has already attracted an unacceptable amount of flaming.

Hello all. Im having a problem when using my phone mainly that when i tap the screen to make a selection my cable box signal drops out. Its time warner cable and a cisco hd box. My wife has a razr and hers dosnt have this problem. Mine is a razr maxx rooted on stock rom. Anyone have any idea why this is going on?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rigbyrobot:
Wow, lol, thats pretty crazy are you normally on wifi when this happens? Or have it on?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tbone1319:
wifi off
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rigbyrobot:
Bluetooth? I'd find it hard to believe reverb or inaudible noise from haptic feed back could interfere with your cable box..but try turning it off and see what happens, you probably need to grab a new cable box though, sounds as if the one you have isn't properly shielded
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tbone1319:
yea bluetooth is off also but yes getting a new cable box wouldnt be a bad idea
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rigbyrobot:
Try turning off haptic feed back and see if that helps
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
WTF? LOL!!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RandomGuy982:
Try checking for loose connectors on the cable jumpers throughout your house. You are experiencing ingress. Your cable system is not shielded somewhere, and that somewhere is acting as an antenna picking up signals in the air and pulling them into the cable system as noise. Check the connectors at the wall plate, cable box, modem, etc...
[LG Revolution] eghill1125:
Not sure how I did it, but I am stuck at the Red LG logo with the white LG letters and my phone will go no further. It will not shut down without a battery pull. I have tried to do the hold down volume and factory reset the phone, same screen pops back up. Plugged in does nothing either. It is like it lost the ability to boot.

I ask here for maybe some guidance from a dev. If wrong place, please move it.

I can not get into the recovery, regular boot, computer to recognize it.. Nothing at all... Is there an actual boot image to put on the sd card to boot to?

Any suggestions??

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] @Class:
Hello,

I'm trying to change a system application on my phone using the APKMultiTool utility but am having problems. The resulting APK will crash my phone which complains about 1,000 permissions are not understood: Unknown permission android.permission...

Steps I've taken.

- Downloaded APKMultiTool

- (9) De-compiled the system framework-res.apk

- Edited the arrays.xml file

- (10) Compiled the APK

- (11) Signed the APK

- Pushed the APK back to the device

The result is an unstable system which will just crash often. Does anyone have the correct procedure for editing system apk's using the new APKMultiTool?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] varun.chitre15:
1.Never sign a system apk

2. Use APK manager not apk multitool

3.After compiling, open the apk using winrar and take out resources.arsc and put it back again but with compression level set to store

And then push it to phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] robertips:
you must not compiled framework-res.apk

answer Yes to both questions

delete resources.arsc in the keep folder and done
[HTC Rezound] bskarpa:
Hope this is the correct place to ask, but quick question. So (short form) I relocked bootloader, reflashed the RUU, unlocked boot loader, installed ROM and it works great UNTILL I insert my SIM card, then it just keeps restarting. Why does this happen? What do I need to do, start all over and reflash everything? Please help!
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
Did you flash ruu twice.....it doesn't flash everything the first time through
[HTC Rezound] bskarpa:
This is gonna sound retarded, but I think so. The first time it installed the RUU, it was a blue status bar on the right, the 2nd time it was a brown status bar. But, I had already installed the ROM prior to seeing the brown bar...Does that make any since? I used to be decent at this, but it's been a while...
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
relock and reflash the ruu twice... then flash recovery and then flash a rom
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
Worst case flash the ruu again...watch it do each step successfully...that's what I would do. When I did the first flash using scoslers instructions I needed to do a battery pull since it was stuck at white htc screen...
[HTC Rezound] bskarpa:
Ok, we'll try and see what happens. I was hoping that it was something small. lol
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
It could be something else...but when I am not sure on something I start from scratch and try again lol
[HTC Rezound] bskarpa:
ok, so that did the trick for the SIM, but now I lost root and cant get it back...ugh! I've tried thru recovery and using Rezound_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0, but it dont work either. phone works for now though...so better than nothing. If yall got any ideas on how to get root back I would be thankful...yall know alot more about this than I do..haha

unlock

I have replaced my screen and it now has a great clear pic. My problem is after it powers up I cannot unlock the screen. Any suggestions. I did check the ribbon and it seems good.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ahmaweed:
I had that problem as well. The ribbon wire looked fine but it had to be pushed in more. Unscrew the casing, the screws holding down the motherboard, and disconnect the main wire. Then you can simply lift up the motherboard and get access to the LCD connector on the left. I used flat-ended tweezers to push it in and used the opposite end of the port as leverage. Hope that helps.

After replacing the digitizer, my SD card isn't being recognized by the phone. After reading through the forum, I believe it is one of the pins on the motherboard connector but it all seems fine. Anybody having the same problem?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yahoowizard:
SO, I noticed with my old laptop that had the face unlock option, it ended up saving the pictures most of the time whenever I tried to log in, as a security option. I never realized it until a few months after using my laptop, that there was a folder with pictures of my face, pretty much, for every day throughout the year.

Was wondering whether there was a similar way to get Face Unlock to save the pictures whenever I log in, so that, a few months later, boom, I have that collage of "Picture of myself, from every day in the year." Seems somewhat easy to do, but yeah, just throwing ideas out there :)

[Motorola Droid Bionic] dethzero:
Hey guys, I'm a lurker and wanted to ask a few questions before proceeding.

I've had my bionic since November and everything is pretty much smooth. Today I did a root on it and all went silky smooth. I even downloaded a game cheating app that required root to test stuff out, seemed interesting.

So now, I'm thinking of trying some custom roms. I know a while ago, installing certain roms or updates made changes to the phone that would prevent it from getting new OTA. My question is, when using Safestrap, will installing a rom there make changes to the phone in a way that would prevent it from getting a new OTA like the ICS update maybe in the future?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] projektorboy:
All custom ROMs have OTA updates disabled. Bionic ROMs are built from heavy modifications of existing Moto framework, and somehow forcing in an OTA update would break the hell out of them.

That said, OTA updates are built with the assumption that you are completely stock. OTA updates fail if you try to apply them on a system with a custom ROM installed.

Also, there's a good chance that OTA updates will break root if you happen to be running stock-rooted. Safestrap is kind of a way of having insurance against situations like that so you can restore to pre-OTA or just install a new ROM entirely.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] timmy10shoes:
Safestrap installs your 2nd or "safe" rom in the preinstall partition. And most stock updates contain a preinstall patch. So even when booted on your "unsafe" or stock side, there is a good chance you will have to reflash the preinstall image for the update to succeed.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Hans5849:
Make sure you read the instructions on how to SafeStrap. I didn't and found myself reinstalling the OS. If I had read the directions first I would not have had to.
[HTC One X] iverson3-1:
In other HTC phones they are known to.have low volume while listening to music specifically with over ear headphones. I have a HTC sensation which has this issue did HTC fix it? Is the volume louder while listening to music? How does it compare to other phones such as the iPhone or other HTC phones? My HTC sensation was extremely low compared to the iPhone or any other mp3 device it almost made me not want to use it as a mp3 player while using over ear headphones. I plan on getting the one X when it comes to the US.
[HTC One X] WiplashNL:
My HOX definitely pumps more volume than my DHD, headphones AND speaker.

That was a major relief because I couldn't hear sh*t on my DHD :(

[HTC One X] NZtechfreak:
Interesting, two sets of RMAA results now are in agreement that it's rather poor. Check GSMarena's review.

To answer the OP: Looking at the objective results you will not be able to drive higher quality headphones adequately (things with 300ohm impedance for example, like many higher-end Sennheiser headphones), more sensitive headphones with impedances 70ohms or less should be doable (although they will sound quieter than with many other phones).

Hey lads, the new swiftkey beta is out.

Here's the download link (provided by paranoid android85) - http://www.mediafire.com/?o4wxgq0c95fbl6b

One of the biggest feature is you don't have to use the space key anymore. The app knows where you want to have a space and puts it in automatically.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] jim93:
1) download source code from https://opensource.samsung.com/index.jsp. You are looking for source code for SGH-T839.

2) Get initramfs (Need to make a kernel package)

Extract it using extract boot http://www.mediafire.com/?lc12eceeh617b97.

This is why I am looking for a boot.img

extract it

tar -xvf extractboot.tar.gz

now move into directory with extract boot and copy your boot.img into here and do

./extractboot boot.img

3) Get mkboot tools

http://www.mediafire.com/?w06d1m6n1dgo4op

untar it by doing

tar -xvf $FILENAMEHERE

Add the bin directory to your path by moving to the bin directory and copying down the path then

Now you will add this to your path by editing your .bashrc file.

Go to your bashrc file

gedit ~/.bashrc

and adding this

PATH=$PATH:/FULLDIRECTORYYOUWROTEDOWN/
export PATH

4) Download the ARM toolchain

https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/package5385/public/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/arm-2009q3-67-arm-none-linux-gnueabi.bin

and

https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/package5355/public/arm-none-eabi/arm-2009q3-68-arm-none-eabi.bin

5) Install the ARM Toolchain

create the directory /opt/toolchains/arm-2009q3/

sudo mkdir /opt/toolchains/arm-2009q3/

then install the toolchain using /opt/toolchains/arm-2009q3/

as the install directory

sudo chmod +x arm-2009q3-68-arm-none-eabi.bin
sudo chmod +x arm-2009q3-67-arm-none-linux-gnueabi.bin
sudo ./arm-2009q3-67-arm-none-linux-gnueabi.bin -i console
sudo ./arm-2009q3-68-arm-none-eabi.bin -i console

6) Compile

Extract your source code and go to the directory Kernel and do the following

WARNING: MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO SPACES IN YOUR FILEPATH BECAUSE THE MAKEFILE DOESNT LIKE THEM.

make clean
make arch=arm sidekick_rev02_defconfig
make ARCH=arm HOSTCFLAGS="-g -O3" -j8 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/toolchain/bin/arm-none-eabi-

Now copy any of the resulting compiled ko files into the initramfs file you have extracted and you should have what you need to package a kernel.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] nxd:
A request to anyone building SK4G kernels.

Please disable the keystroke logging printk statements in the file:

drivers/input/keyboard/s3c-keypad.c

The lines look like this:

//printk("\nkey Pressed : key %d map %d\n",i, pdata->keycodes[i]);

and

//printk("\nkey Released : %d map %d\n",i,pdata->keycodes[i]);

It is possible to recover the actual keystrokes from the numerical codes those statements log, and the messages go into the dmesg buffer. So it's pretty easy to extract them and determine exactly what the user typed.

In the latest Samsung sources I've seen, those lines were already commented out. It makes sense to enable them while debugging a new ROM build, but please do disable them prior to building a kernel intended for general consumption.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
Do you guys know if the available source code will produce a kernel that will work with kj2? the kernel version in SGH-T839_Opensource_Update1 looks to match up, but I compilied a zImage and it didn't boot on stock kj2. but I could very well be missing something.

I have done a small amount of kernel work on an HTC device, but I basically just used the Rom Kitchen to pack up my zImages with a boot.img-ramdisk to create a boot.img. I guess I might need a little more instruction for packing up a Samsung kernel. Is it also an option to just tar up the zImage and flash it with Odin/Heindall?

Thanks for this thread, and for any other advice!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] nxd:
In case it might be useful to someone else working on building a kernel.

The official and Bali_SK4G sources both seem to insist on building with debug symbols enabled for some of the modules. In particular, i was ending up with dhd.ko being 2.4 MB in size, where it should have been less than 400 KB.

The ideal case would be to determine why the debug symbols are being included -- commenting out the labelled debug options in the bcm4329 Makefile didn't accomplish this.

But a workaround is to strip the modules after the build is finished, before assembling the initramfs.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] nxd:
Has anyone been able to build a working zImage for KJ2 using Dr. Honk's Bali sources [1] and sduvick's KJ2 ramdisk files [2]?

I have been able to build a zImage of a reasonable size (6520 KB). But when I flash this to the KERNEL partition using heimdall, the device boot loops to the B&W Sidekick logo. It doesn't get far enough to show any adb log output.

I can then use the same heimdall flashing procedure to flash the Platypus Egg v1 zImage, or other KJ2-compatible zImage files, and the device boots and works properly.

So I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong in building my zImage. If anyone has any advice I would be appreciative.
