[Acer Iconia A500] ed1808:
hi there many thanks for your reply and patience ok i have been trying to get adb access for days now lol to retrive the cpuid but nothing

to recap this a500 is as unknown all i no is it died one day

i have installed the latest acer drivers on 4 pc and laptops one being 64bit op and still on turning on the a500 the driver fail to load.

[IMG="driver fail"]http://s11.postimg.org/tj0dmbvn7/driver_fail.png[/IMG]

if i do a restore with the lock button (tried all 4 original update files from here) yes i get "wiping data, wiping cache, installing from update.zip" then android man apears tummy rolling then dies around 5 seconds later with no progress bar.

if i put into bootloader v0.03.12-ICS: starting fastboot USB download protocol then in device manager i get a adb device

[IMG="adb interface in device manager"]http://s1.postimg.org/dqj8op4bz/adb_interface.png[/IMG]

but nothing else... but A500Manager see`s it in fastboot mode

in which i can do not alot really and also usb devices although it shows a adb fastbood device thats about all.

also the cmd adb devices shows no devices either

also attached a pick of a normal power press with usb from printers

im not normally a stupid man lol although my wife would disagree im sure which is why i was just wondering if this is worth presueing any further with lynux which i no absolutly nothing about what so ever and having read the method erm well has anybody got skype and do they fancy helping me with a walk through lool yes im sorry for asking that on this thread

so just to recap completly flumaxed i no i need to get this driver issue sorted out but how can you when you have run out of pc`s to try it on plus cables also oh and usb ports lol

any assistants massivly appreciated :eek:
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
Ok I'm not sure why you're having issues with adb, it appears you are doing everything right. The MTP driver isnt a problem at this point - but it would be nice to know why adb isnt co-operating. You do have adb and fastboot drivers installed yeh?

But moving on from that - getting adb working is not gonna get you your cpuid, this is only available if your tab is on the HC bootloader, which yours isnt - but in saying that adb should still spit out some sort of number its just not the one we want!

Fastboot - this only works fully with the unlocked bootloader, so thats out of the mix for the moment too.

Remove the update.zip from your sd card - if you leave it on there, anytime you press power vol down buttons it will automatically flash the stock recovery (dead android)

As far as going down the linux road. I know the guide doesnt seem very helpful but for the linux noobs that have tried it, they have got thru - the best advice I can give is not ro try and understand what you're doing, just follow the steps and trust the process, lol - if you have some room on your pc hd you can install on a small partition and have dual boot with windows or you can run a bootable cd/usb version instead. ubuntu is the preferred version and is supposedly easier for us windows peeps to use....

Oh, there is one other option for getting your cpuid and thats the apxflash tool. what does that say when you've run it? Have you put your tab in manual apxmode and tried it?? clutching at straws here but worth a blat!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] ppcedillox:
I really need some help haha

hello i have an A500 stock rom and recovery,never flash it anything and one day it just died after puting it on stand by, i can put in in apx mode but i never turn the debugg on, so when i try to flash it ..nothing happens, the sd method dont work i hace the cpuid and the sbk witht the linux method, but thats as far as i can get.

im on ics, my bootloader is v0.03.12-ics and when i press vol +, power and rotation lock i got this

[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
Bad news I'm sorry, your tab has the faulty memory chip problem, the only fix is a new motherboard, these have been available to buy on eBay in the past for around US$50. Could try Acer themselves they may have some old stock lying around, its a long shot but worth a try!

[HTC Sensation XL] repairsuniverse:
This written repair guide will show you on how to disassemble and take apart your HTC Sensation XL. This guide will enable anyone to take apart their HTC Sensation XL safely and easily and give them a chance to replace damaged screen or broken parts of their phone.

This guide will help you install the following HTC Sensation XL part (s):

HTC Sensation XL Touch Screen Digitizer Replacement

Tools Required:

Safe Open Pry Tool

Small Phillip screwdriver

Adhesive Strips (For Touch Screen Replacements)

Heat Gun/Hair Dryer

HTC Sensation XL take apart/repair guide:

The first step is to turn off your phone and remove the back cover and also the battery

Remove the ten (10) screws using the small Phillips screwdriver.

Figure 1​

Use a safe pry tool to remove the middle cover

You can now remove the 2 antenna cables and after that disconnect the mainboard connector.

Remove the one (1) screw using the small Phillips screwdriver circled in Red.

At this point you should be able to lift up the mainboard slightly away and disconnect the 2 connectors circled in Yellow in Figure 2.

Figure 2​

The next step is to remove the camera cover as well the vibrate motor circled in Green..

Disconnect the display connector. Lift up the power button and the volume button located in Blue.

Once the buttons release you can now remove the full motherboard.

Use a heat gun or hair dryer to heat the display module and carefully separate the display from middle plate and touch screen digitizer.

Now you will be able to replace any parts on your HTC Sensation XL. Simply replace the damaged parts with the new ones and reverse the order to put your phone back together again.

SXL Screen

Bit random, but whenever I try to remove the digitizer from the LCD it never comes away easily and I have to order the LCD and the digitizer pre-bonded to repair the SXL.

Done two now and the second one I spent quite a while heating the display?

Any Ideas?
[HTC Sensation XL] biorca25:
HI

I've tried but I made a mess .....

I do not understand what must heat the glue was hard to the touch,

and I broke the display....

be very careful

sorry for the translator.

But now I suicide

Is there any one who have experience in separating the Digitizer from the LCD?

i have a mate whos lcd has broken and needs replacing and he is not sure if the diagram you have here for the digitalizer is also the same way you can use to replace the screen. Also i have heard they are different model of screen out there, how is the best way for me to find the same screen compatibility :)
[HTC Sensation XL] biorca25:
info thanks

hi friends

I finally had to take a lcd touchscreen assembled.

remember to check the buttons on the touch are not covered does not illuminate

after reassembling

I have a small problem, the touch screen is not calibrated to perfection

there is a way to do it?

thanks oly
[HTC Sensation XL] repairsuniverse:
Make sure you applied adhesive all the way round the touch screen so there is the correct spacing between the LCD and touch screen. This should resolve your problem.
[HTC Sensation XL] Dubs1980:
I am in the process of replacing a screen on a HTC Sensation XL also, I have only got as far as disassembling the phone with the cracked screen so far, but I have noticed the HTC factory touch screen (the cracked one) has little clear plastic parts stuck on the underside to help the illumination of the button areas. The replacement part screen I have (which is not genuine HTC but chinese I guess) does not have these clear plastic pieces on the underside.

I have not seen any mention of removing them from the original screen and adding these to the replacement screen but is not doing this going to mean that the buttons will not light up after I put the phone back together??

Thanks for any advice
[HTC Sensation XL] repairsuniverse:
The functionality of the device will still work. The light will not go through however. You can transfer these clear buttons by applying heat and using a pry tool.
[HTC Sensation XL] onejay09:
seperating the digitizer from the lcd succesfully

i succesfully seperated the digitizer from the lcd with a razor blade mainly and fishing line (not nessecary) could help though, if your digitizer is smashed pick the pieces off one by one by cutting between screen/digitizer very carefully, allways stay closer to the digitizer with the blade and stay clear from the lcd keeping the glue on the lcd, after getting all of the digitizers glass off, carefully start to peel back the glue from the bottom corner starting with the area where the buttons were, dont pull it up pull it back on itself! and carefully with a razor slice the glue using the lcd face to lean on with the flat side of the razor! the lcd will not get any scratches on it dont worry, i repeat take your time it took me 5 hours, keep pressure down to a minimum or youll smash the lcd, this is a pre buying digitizer option, because if you fail youll be stuck with a spare digitizer :crying:

hope this helps

jay
[HTC Sensation XL] fazzieng:
Separating digitizer from lcd on SXL is not possible simply because adhesive is applied in between (whole surface).

Been there, done that..

I always smile when see all these digitizers on fleebay..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ryanbmw51:
How do I adjust in rom toolbox? I go in to build.prop editor and near the bottom there are 2 lines that say ro.sf.lcd_density. When I click on both they say 320. Is it as simple as changing that to 240 (if that's where I'm trying to be)?

Recommendations?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] truth77:
Yup that's it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ryanbmw51:
Got it works good. But 240 was a little much for me. Set it 280 and perfect now. Thanka
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] truth77:
Glad to help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] NoDoze:
Isn't 240 making the icons larger...? Why would you want to do that...?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LordJummy:
No its lowering the visible pixel density which in turn gives you smaller objects and more physical space.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] umarali:
i was trying to set it to 180 but at 180 the phone app force closes infact when i click on phone it just stays blank for few seconds and then force closes. so i had to go to 220. any thoughts on any solution to that?... also at 220 the dialer buttons stay still the big size so they are not fully visible, any remedy?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] troyolson92:
I thought just the opposite. Lowering density is less pixels per inch which means larger icons etc. also means your lowering your resolution. Is it just me that feels lowering your resolution is counter productive.

Lower pixel density = less resolution = larger icons etc. doesn't make sense to me why we would want to do this. There us a magnifier feature built in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Meanbastard Jr:
Nope definitely makes everything small im pretty sure it shows up smaller since the phone for some reason is set at default at 320 dpi in ICS and true dpi is 285.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] troyolson92:
I will test size difference... Have you noticed a Resolution difference?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] troyolson92:
Smaller density us smaller size. I was wrong sorry. What is the effect on resolution though? I don't seemuch of difference...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] D1358531:
I have a Galaxy Mini (was a Dart) running CM7.2. My normal density is 120, but if I set it to anything lower than that, Swype, Task Manager and Fast Reboot force close...bummer :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TOA Duck:
Some apks will have to be modified for a lower density, like earlier when asked about the phone force closing. There is a mooded apk for the gs2 but not sure about the note.

Stay thirsty my friends

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bornagainpenguin:
I'm not sure if this is the right place for this or not, so I apologize in advance if I'm posting in the wrong place and for asking (potentially) stupid questions because I am not a developer by any means.

I just got my Nook Color two days ago or so, and in that time I've loaded several different roms and tried various things to get a general feel for what works for me. I keep finding myself up against the wall between wanting the system tray at the bottom and buttons of Ice Cream Sandwich, and wanting the bar at the top like the default in Gingerbread and Froyo. Both have options that simply make sense to me and it seem that I am forced to choose between the one or the other.

My question is this:

Is it possible to have two bars (one on the top and one on the bottom) at all times and still allow for the launcher to be changed, so people can add what ever home replacement they prefer? I'm thinking of something like the Gnome 2.x desktop, with the top bar having the system tray to be dragged down, the clock and whatever icons would normally live there, then a bottom bar containing only the necessary buttons for menu and back at opposite sides of the bar.

Is this possible, or does Android have built in assumptions that there is only one bar which can be at the bottom or the top but you only get one?

Otherwise, what would it take to do this? Would it be possible to simply edit a few files as a novice and get this, or are we talking about such drastic changes it would break everything?

--bornagainpenguin
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bornagainpenguin:
Okay, now I'm really confused...

I was talking about this to a friend of mine who is also tech savvy, and he gave me a puzzled look, pulled out his new phone with Ice Cream sandwich and showed me that by default, ICS came exactly like I was asking about!

This is a randomly googled image of what I saw:

I went ahead and downloaded the latest version of the nightly CM9 builds and noticed that in the settings it talks about a "combined bar" which I assume is the default method is being used by all the current Nook Color CM9 roms. Is there a way to go back to the default split system bars method? Better yet, is there a way to get this on Gingerbread?

Hopefully by adding a screenshot of what I am looking for in general I am being more clear and someone can give me a response. If I am still not being clear, please let me know what information I need to add.

Thanks.

--bornagainpenguin
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mateorod:
That is Phone GUI, I believe, while the Nook uses the Tablet. I believe that you can have it switch to Phone GUI by increasing the resolution. The problem is that at this point, the Phone GUI overrides the soft keys, which you'll need since the Nook doesn't have the hardware buttons. Leapinlar made a patch, maybe you'll like it. Read the description, the soft keys are customized.

Leapinlar's Softkey Patch

If you want the ICS soft keys in Gingerbread, MRG666 added the ICS soft keys to his CM7.2 ROM awhile back. Install the latest build or search his thread for info. Might take a little play in the settings, but I think you can make the above happen with a little work.

MiRaGe CM7.2 KANG
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bornagainpenguin:
Thank you very much!

I'll definitely try out the patch, to see if that is what will work for me. I'll also give Kang another look. I remember one of the roms being what I wanted but I couldn't remember which one it was.

--bornagainpenguin

EDIT: Well I tested out the patch by Leapinlar, which seems to do pretty much what I'm looking for. The only thing is I'm not a hundred percent sure I think any of the ICS builds are really ready yet. :( I'm still planning to give that patch a try with the MIUI ICS and see if it makes an improvement or not.

I just spent the day reading through all 99 pages of the MiRaGe CM7.2 KANG thread (it was actually 98 pages when I started, lol) and I did not really see this addressed there. I am planning on asking directly in case I missed it somehow. The closest thing I saw was some discussion about the themes for the buttons and possibly being able to use older builds to get larger buttons. Not exactly what I'm looking for....

Thanks, but no thanks. I don't like ROMs which get updated every day or next to every day.

If I were to run such a build (which I have in the past) I would feel the need of installing every update as they arrive, and that is simply too much for me. I'm sure temasek's builds are awesome, but as long as they are nightlies or next to being nightlies, they aren't for me.

Or maybe I have mixed it all up? Are the RC-XX builds his nightlies and the "clean builds without cherry pickings" his non-nightly builds?

[General Questions and Answers] 8bithavok:
So after installing CM7 on my EVO4G I lost all ability to send/receive MMS. The reason behind this, I suspect, is that the OTA capability for Sprint phones isn't a simple *228 like Verizon, but is in the settings menu, and in CM7 the option to perform an OTA signal update is not present. Is there a workaround for this? I reverted to a Sense based ROM (Swagged Out Stock) but it goes into a boot loop at least once a week.

Just curious to see if the issue has been resolved/patched in CM7 or if the feature has been added in a newer release.
