update

Added CM9 nightly 20120507 version :)

And sorry for NS4G users.. I gave up making mods for NS4G because I can't test..

(I have GSM Nexus S only and currently all my uploaded mods are tested on my phone.)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sykomaniac:
Anyone make this mod for cm using reloaded?

I made all the xml changes then saw you needed to edit the .java file which goes beyond my smali expertise! :(

my fault, i have the wrong cm9. i upgraded already and works good :D very nice mod!! tnx a lot
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Brignoud:
So this means that Slim ROM can run this too?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Shadowfox993:
Help

I have a question, first, i just need a little assistance, i am running the latest cm9 nightly, and i went to the download link. Then when i tried to install through clockwork recovery it gave me an error and aborted. Can someone send me a link to a thread that can help me and point me in the right direction? Or give me advice? Please and thank you. :confused:
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] clem_ita:
1- BE CAREFUL!!!! This mod is not for last nightly but is for 20120507 nightly, as shown in the screenshot by the OP a couple of messages before yours.

2- Assuming that you are running the correct nightly, the flashing process is straightforward. Just go to recovery, chose install from SD card, chose zip, select your file and wait. If CWM recovery gives you error try redownload the file.. maybe it is corrupted. By the way, did you take note of the error that CWM gave you??

[HTC One X] Slaytanic:
Hi, I've noticed that the phone has fast boot enabled by default,which improves the boot time very much,but I have 2 questions about it:

1) when you shut down the phone, is it completely shutdown like with hibernation on PCs or is it in a sort of standby? I'm asking this because before shutting down the phone battery was on 75 percent left and now, just after the power on it is on 56 percent... I don't know if it is a matter of battery stats not yet calibrated or if battery drains overnight with phone shutdown and fast boot enabled..

2) battery usage stats are not reset upon a phone restart, so I can not see the screen on time related to my second charge, since it continues accounting time since the first boot... Is it again related to fast boot, which does not shut down completely the phone?

Do you leave fast boot enabled? Are there other cons related to it?

This is a very great phone, let's hope firmware 1.28 improves the battery life..
[HTC One X] preacher65:
I think it depends on how you use the phone. The only time I turn my phones off is when I want to reset them to clear some software glitch or other, and since that needs a full power off, I disable fast boot. The One X still boots quickly enough without it, considering I don't do it very often.

If I was turning the phone off and back on more frequently, I might leave it enabled. I guess that's down to personal preference and usage patterns.

In terms of what fast boot does, I think it's a low power sleep mode, not full Windows-like hibernation - i.e. there is some slight power drain while the phone is off. In one of the DHD threads recently, someone had significant power drain from a rogue app even while the phone was turned off. When he disabled fast boot, the battery drain went away. This suggested to me that this app was stopping the phone from completely sleeping - but if it had been completely powered down, that wouldn't have happened. I don't know this for a fact, though, it's just a theory based on observations.
[HTC One X] Slaytanic:
I may be in a similar situation, since 15 percent of battery life drain in 8 hours with phone shutdown is definitely too much.. hope firmware 1.28 will help also for this ;)
[HTC One X] preacher65:
Definitely too much - mine loses less than that overnight, and the phone shouldn't use more power when it's turned off than when it's on! :eek:

As you say, hopefully updates will fix it. :)

Hi , I want to know if it is possible create a folder for games , programs on a501 , like happen is samsung galaxy s2

thank you very much
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Install a custom launcher from the market ;) Then you should be able to better organize things.
[Acer Iconia A500] irishmoe:
I use folder organizer and desktop visualiser. Great combo that works for me. I like everything packed up in folders to keep my home screen emptyish.
[Acer Iconia A500] fdadda:
thank you very much
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
ICS with the stock launcher does folders. Just drag one icon on top of another.

However, I still like Folder Orginazer.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
i use application folders pro. i like the interface on creating icons with pop up list of of apps . you have to try it to understand. It does work really great and keeps clutter off the home screen.

I got it on amazon for free. app of the day long ago. IT Actually is AWESOME ON MY 2.3.6 ANDROID Phone. smaller screen.
[Acer Iconia A500] henryher:
just like the ipad

Just like the iPad. Drag one icon and drop over another. When you open the folder you can name it. I don't see the need to download an app just for that.
[HTC One X] tomqman:
my .mkv videos dont play sound . unless i use softwere decoding on mobo but the the video is a lag fest. anyone know of a good way to convert them for one x friendly viewing
[HTC One X] delboy98:
DicePlayer is working flawlessly for me with my 720p .mkv files. Buttery smooth video and audio is perfectly in sync.
[HTC One X] mishmac:
Try Avidemux its free.

Just copy the video and re-encode the audio.

Works spot on for me.
[HTC One X] tomqman:
thanks works great changing it to aac :D

and its fast
[HTC One X] ko0l:
Theres also bs player lite if you don't like the menu bar in diceplayer.
[HTC One X] MrGarak:
On MX Player you can set it to use the hardware decoder to decode video (H.264), software decoder to decode audio (Dolby 5.1/DTS) and enable fast mode.

720p and 1080p .mkv's tested here working perfectly.
[HTC One X] kythor:
Yeah currently using MX Player. But you gotta set the decoders away from HW every time you start playing an .mkv file.

What does Avidemux do exactly? Is mkv not really supported by ICS?

Thanks :)
[HTC One X] NZtechfreak:
Your audio is probably DTS or AC3 encoded, Dice Player can handle those and use hardware decoding. Best video player for any Android it supports IMO. No dirty transcoding or anything, just drag n drop and everything works.
[HTC One X] kythor:
Ah, gonna try Dice and do some experiments, like, see if it can play my mkv files with hardware acceleration instead of software.
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
Try MX Player. You can try HW video and SW audio and see how that goes. Decoding isn't locked to the same type between video and audio on MX :)
[HTC One X] kythor:
I just tried Dice Player and it can play the mkv's audio with HW.

I don't think my ears are sensitive enough to hear the difference, but I read that HW acceleration uses lesser battery juice than SW?
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
Yes it does cos most SoC's come with a built in decoder. SW decode would mean you're using your CPU power to convert audio/video on the fly as you watch/listen, causing more battery drain.
[HTC One X] xaeder:
Here is a comparison on what I have tried so far, for playing .mkv files:

Default HTC player: No audio at all and you cannot setup decoding to play audio whatsoever.

Mobo player: The same as HTC player.

Dice player: Audio works and videos play using hardware acceleration, but if you have stock rom, you cannot watch videos in full screen because of the menu bar, which is a huge deal breaker for me.

BS player: ICS friendly (menu button and all), plays videos with audio fine on software decoding mode or hardware decoding mode (BSPlayer engine). But on hardware decoding mode (system), the video is really bad, it has some corrupted squares all over it. I reckon that "HW decoding mode (system)" should be utilizing Tegra 3, right?

MX player: Also ICS friendly. Plays videos with audio fine on software decoding mode, but on hardware decoding mode,

there is no sound

. There is, however, an option to software decode audio when playing hardware decoded video, but, when I select that, the video completely stops and it's unplayable.

So, the final conclusion is this:

In MX player, currently the only way to watch videos is by software decoding. BS player can use hardware decoding using its own engine, but actually I don't know what "BSPlayer engine" utilizes for hw decoding. So the winner should be BS player, but the problem is that I really much more prefer MX over BS, due to other functions that it has and the overall appearance and experience.

My question to you guys is this: are there any negative effects if I use MX player with software decoding? Will my battery last shorter if CPU does all the decoding instead of the Tegra 3? I guess it will in theory, but has anyone tried and actually seen the difference with HW over SW decoding?

I sure hope that all of these app devs will soon follow ICS standards and new phones with graphics accelerations.

Also, if anyone can suggest a video player that hasn't been mentioned here, please do so!
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
Software decoding will always consume more power. How much more I do not know. Also, Tegra 3 IS the CPU. Hardware decode means that there is a specific chip in the SoC that is there specifically to encode/decode video/audio and hence CPU resources are minimal. When that chip does not support a certain format, it's forced to render it in software.

Also, .mkv is just a container, there are many audio and video formats that can be encoded into .mkv :)
[HTC One X] xaeder:
Thank you for your answer! I understand now what Tegra 3 actually is.

Oh, and for the format, sorry I forgot to mention. You are right, .mkv is just a container :)

The format of my files tested is:
[HTC One X] adamsweeting:
As mentioned in other posts... If you have to use S/W in MX, it's because you have a 5.1 audio track.

Use something like mkv2mp4, and that will convert the audio stream to 2ch

Then MX will play the video & audio with H/W
[HTC One X] kythor:
This is helpful. Thanks :)
[HTC One X] kruppin:
I think BSplayer is best. Sure, it uses it's own HW engine(if you want), but it shouldn't be any big differences I hope. It sure as hell uses alot less battery then SW anyway. :P And also, BSplayer can play straight from .rar's and stream from a windows share in HW-mode (with it's own engine ofc)! Most players switch back to SW when you play through network but not bsplayer. And BSplayer also downloads subs automatically. The only downside is that it's kind of ugly. :p Haha

Now, it they only would port XBMC to android.. :)

---------- Post added at 10:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 PM ----------

The whole idea with these media players is to not have to convert every video you've want to see. BSPlayer is the best player, period. It can play everything I've tried as of yet anyhow.

There it however one thing I hate, but thats probably the phone (or drivers) and not bsplayer. If you play say 720p over network with a bluetooth headset, it will lag. It's if they haven't given enough bandwidth to the wifi/bluetooth chip. Don't think I had this problem on my old phone.
[HTC One X] allen175:
just tried Dice player there, i must say it is really good. no lag what so ever, and the sound was perfect, and the menu bar didn't bother me at all.
[HTC One X] brent8577:
some of them might work in whatever app you want to use, but i can tell you that some of them will never work right. i bought a Cowon D2 (what a mistake!) and ended up selling it. some mkvs didn't show video and a lot of them didn't have audio. it depends on the codecs that were used. it's the same on PS3. there are certain videos and audios that you need better hardware to play. i've seen people say that the audio has to be "AC3" for it to work on PS3. i wouldn't waste too much time with it and you should just convert it lower or use a computer with mid to high level AMD/Nvidia and some $100+ sound card. if you're trying to watch bluray disc rips that keep some of the quality, then it most likely won't work.

[Acer Iconia A500] fdadda:
Thank you moscow for your help. I think to install and test your rom. At the moment i am in thor recovery . For first i must install your ra recovery 3.15 and then follow the rom instruction . Do you think that the battery could be better with your rom instead taboonay?

I must post here because i haven't reach 10 post for development section
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, you can always post over at androidtabletgeeks. We don't have such limits. It's just a new site is all.

As with battery power, here is what I know.

Your battery life, is pretty much controlled by the kernel that is being used. This is not considering apps, and running processes which also use battery. But more so by the kernels ability to overclock (OC), and at the same time, use undervoltage (UV). UV is where you save a lot of battery when only concerning the OS itself. This is purely kernel controlled.

The object, or holy grail, as I say, is to find the lowest amount of UV based on CPU speed. At least UV enough to where you still have stability on the tab. Find the lowest amount of power required.

Here-in lies the problem. You only have 4 different kernel Dev's to choose from. And guess what? They all own a500's. And because of this, most of the newer kernels work fine on an a500, but with the 501, we get what is called 3g freeze or sleep of death. Both requiring re-boots. Sometimes you may go for a day without getting it. But it will happen if you use your 3g often enough. Some people aren't familiar with this, and just ignore it sometimes thinking the rom or app is messed up.

As with good kernels to use, I can say this;

1. Stock kernel (GPL compliant)

2. RichardTrip's 3.4 villain+ (current in rom) (GPL compliant)

3. Drelisdee earlier version kernel (GPL compliant)

4. Thor2002ro current version (untested and non-GPL compliant)

As with battery power, well, I can't tell you if Taboonay 2.2 compares. I believe Vache uses a RichardTrip kernel, just not aware which one. You can always experiment with kernels, as long as you follow the correct procedures.

As in roms, one would hope the newest version of HC would require a little less power to function. Just watch for the 3g freeze, usually when in the browser.
[Acer Iconia A500] fdadda:
Thank youv for your answer-

But if i use your rom like it is flashed , i haven't need to install other kernel ..

I am very pratic on galaxy s2 but not so much on a501. I am afraid todo mistake or wrong flash with the possibility of use a501 like

A paperweight.......
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Don't worry. Nobody has ever made a paperweight from my roms :)

Just make a recovery backup of your current system through RA Recovery. Typically this generally provides some safety. I've never known a recovery image to be bad when running HC 3.2.x. It happens on rare occasions.

Only lately on the ICS "betas" have I seen some corrupted stuff.
[Acer Iconia A500] fdadda:
hi moscow , i have installed your rom now and it is very quickly. compliments.

i tried to install the apk of polaris office that was included in taboonay but when i open a doc file i have fc. also on stock rom i had fc with polaris. how can solve?

then i seen that is missing the dnla apk for wireless connection how can install.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks for the comments!!!

It is probably because you are missing the 2 library files that are necessary for polaris Office to run.

I am at work now and don't have access to my files, so do the following;

Search the threads here at XDA, as you should be able to find a polaris office zip somewhere in either the dev, general or q&a forum. I remember putting one up some time ago (non flashable).

or

Download one of the Honeycomb 3.2.x roms that include polaris office, open the zip (do not extract it), then I belive in the lib folder, you will find the 2 polaris office lib files. They are easy to locate. Copy these into the same folder on your tablet. Then reboot and they should work.

As with DNLA apk, If you look near the bottom of my Rom post, you will see a link to a zip for the Acer System Apps. Unzip to your PC, and copy the apk you want, and also the Odex file. Copy to your tablets system/app folder, the reboot. Should work.
[Acer Iconia A500] fdadda:
Thanks. Tor polaris office i have already solved yesterday Night, tor dnla i Will try tonight.

The only thing that gas a little pag is when i open the pdf file. Perhaps is because i haven't formatted the sdcard.

Usually when i flah a new rom with the galaxy s2 i formato also the internal ad. Here on iconia tab id i want clear all the internal sd card like when i bought it ' ho i fan do it?because i ha ve some directory or the other rom. Is there a formato tor the internal sdcard?

By francesco
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, generally, I use my Win7 to format my Ext SD Card to FAT32. As with PDF files, I run Docs to Go full version, and haven't noticed any issues.

If you format your SD Card, make sure you copy the contents to your PC First. Personally, I have 2 extra SD cards that I use. Always nice to have an original ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rkuiper:
Name: TileClock

This is a HTC style clock I created using WP7 live tiles.

The official market place doesn't allow apps like these because of the more enthusiastic background processing.

This is a very simple tile clock without any customization.

Just pin the app to the home screen, start the app and enable the clock.

Enabling the clock will pin a second tile.

Arrange the tiles in your home screen so they form the HTC style flip clock.

The clock updates rely on the background task.

If the background task doesn't run (disabled by the user or power save mode) then the clock stops updating.

This app requires a dev-unlocked device (official or chevron).

Update:

Separate apps for 12h and 24h support for when the switching option doesn't work.

The original 2.1 can of course still be used when the switching option does work.

Enjoy.
