[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyber Akuma:
I was wondering why the ACMEInstaller2 deleted all the other zips but left the Clockwork one in the cminstall folder.

So is it safe to run the ACMEInstaller2 with only the clockword zip in the cminstall folder? It won't mess up anything else or complain that the CM file is missing? Or do I need to do an uninstall and reinstall again?

By the way, I have been meaning to ask. I know that the "sd card" is internal memory that both WebOS and Android share as a media folder, but if I choose to reformat/reset the SD card from within Android, will that delete anything from WebOS? I know it won't mess with WebOS itself or it's settings, but would it remove any of the music, videos, downloaded files, or anything else that was put there through WebOS? I don't know if deleting the contents of the .android_secure folder were enough to "reset" my CM9 install, or at least anything it put on the SD card. Is there a way to just delete anything only Android/CM9 put on the SD card partition and not anything WebOS or it's apps put there?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
It left clockwork mod there because it didnt install. It installed everything else. Delete the old one you had in your cminstall folder and put the new one there and just run ACMEinstaller like you did before. You dont need to have the other stuff in the folder. Just the clockwork mod. You will be fine. Once its done you should see Clockwork Mod in moboot.

As far as the sd card, yes, anything you delete in Android on the sd card will be deleted on webOS as well and visa versa. What are you wanting to "reset"? You can do a factory reset after you get clockwork mod on there.

Is there any ICS ROM which has not been themed at all? I tried Racing's UCLD2 ROM but all the icons are grey. Is there any non themed ICS ROM? Or is there a TouchWiz ICS Theme that I can flash over the ICS perfection ROM? Would really appreciate some help. Never thought I'd say this but stock Android gets boring really quick.

Is it possible for someone to make the face effects in the video recording settings work in the camera
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justin94:
Yup. Use the screen shot function.....lol. that's what I've been doing. Get the video setup up with the desired affect and don't record. Just take a screen shot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tweezydak1d:
Well that's a nice work around but it would be cool if they were coded in the camera settings

Well there is too. While recording, tap the screen and it will take a very low Res pic
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] meghd00t:
Well for today here is the next part of the puzzle. My recovery uses sgdisk over parted - well why? because its newer, it is scriptable from the shell, and does not have annoying msftres tags on my partitions and whats more because I can

Build a static sgdisk so that we can manipulate GPT partitions on the Nook

via a script

- check the existing parted - its not OK, scripted does not work

- try updated parted-3.1 - I am not able to build a fully static executable,

but the program works fine for manipulating Nook partitions on the PC

# This is an approximate record of how I built sgdisk for

# my android recovery disk

# I used fedora 15 for arm running on a sheevaplug

# I suppose you could at a pinch do this even on debian or arch or ubuntu on a qemu too but I dont know how

# most of the following commands are cut and pasted from my bash history

# so you may need to read between the lines to get the directories etc

# also note that the sheevaplug is using soft float while arm7 on android

# is usually hard float

2 How I did it

started with

rpm -ivh gptfdisk-0.8.4-1.src.rpm

rpm -ivh util-linux-2.21.1-1.fc17.src.rpm

rpm -ivh popt-1.13-10.fc17.src.rpm

get those sources from fedora-17

rpmbuild -bp --nodeps popt.spec

rpmbuild -bp --nodeps util-linux.spec

rpmbuild -bp --nodeps gptfdisk-0.8.4.spec

cd ../BUILD/popt-1.13/

./configure --help

./configure

sudo yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=lf15 --enablerepo=sf15 install gettext-devel

./configure

make

ls -latr

cp .libs/libpopt.a ../gptfdisk-0.8.4/

cd ../util-linux-2.21.1/

./configure

./configure --without-ncurses

cd libuuid/

make

cp src/.libs/libuuid.a ../../gptfdisk-0.8.4/

cd ../../gptfdisk-0.8.4/

vim Makefile

# I will generate a diff for this bit

sudo yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=lf15 --enablerepo=sf15 install libuuid-devel

sudo yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=lf15 --enablerepo=sf15 install libstdc++ libstdc++-static

sudo yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=lf15 --enablerepo=sf15 install popt-devel

make clean

make gdisk sgdisk

ldd gdisk sgdisk

file sgdisk gdisk

and bang my static binaries!

THIS WORKS FOR ME, TEST IT OUT ON EMPTY USBDISKS and sparse files first

The challenge for the next guy working on this is to use ndk to build so that we can eliminate the fat static glibc & lbstdc++ from fedora 1.5MB binaries are OK for the Nook but for other devices it may be too much

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
Can you specify the actual files so we know what to search for?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
I could use gdisk. But evidently I need an older version. Just not sure how old.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
I'm guessing you have a partition problem? This is out of my wheelhouse, but I did notice all of succulent's old builds mention fdisk and gdisk and then I came across the following:

[HOW-TO] Repartition NT Hard Disk: Media & Data Storage | 8/16 GB Nook Tablet

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. You are responsible if you mess up your tablet. NOTE: ONLY MESS WITH Partitions 10 & 11 (media and userdata) This Wipe Data error E: format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 is normal we all have it and it...

xdaforums.com

If this is way off-base can you describe the issue?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
Not of base at all, just incomplete. I'll fill in the details.

Have an Amazon Fire first gen. Was able to follow the steps to get the Otterx setup, and it works great, sort of. IIRC, it was an Android 4.4.4 ROM, and then I found and wanted to install an Android 7.1 ROM. GApps was the problem. Even with pico, I'm 21 megs short. Also, the Otterx partitions make the system less than a gig. I have found a number of tutorials to fix partitions, but ran into some errors - Google searches lead me to believe the gdisk I have is too new. The ROM did come with fdisk, and I think what I have is GDT table friendly, but I can't find a tutorial or even just the commands to acheive repartitioning. It seems the commands I find on the web don't necessarliy align/match what I am able to use?

That's where I am.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
So this has nothing to do with a Nook Tablet, but you are looking for a hopefully generic gdisk built for Kitkat? Is that right?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
Apologies for being in the wrong thread, but yes. I'll be honest, I don't know how I got here. I think it was linked in one of the many threads (XDA or otherwise) that I've managed to find. And then I failed to realize this thread was for a different device.

Yes, what I am seeking is as generic as possible, which I've generally been able to find, just too new. So yes, I guess "built for KitKat" is the way to say it. And/or somehow if there's a way for me to use the fdisk that's on there already.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
OK, so here is a link to the Amazon Fire forum on XDA. I think you'll probably get more mileage there. Even if I knew what to look for (which I do, a little now) I really don't know where to begin, whether this component lurks as a separate entity within some recoveries or ROMs or whatever, So you'd be better off with me not wasting your time.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
I've been living in that forum as well (I have a couple Fire tablets that I've acquired for free [hand me down/over, local buy nothing group, etc]). The first gen fire threads are just about dead, which makes sense given the time haha. I'm just obstinate I guess.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
OK, I know that situation. This forum is pretty much dead also.

Let me look around and see what I turn up. I'll perhaps learn something in the process, and that's not a bad thing.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
I like to say I'm persistent.

So am I right in assuming gdisk is run from a PC which is connected to a device (like a tablet) via USB?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
Correct. Using cmd to run adb shell via usb
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
OK, here I am going out on a limb, so...

Maybe you need something like this: https://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/index.html

Down towards the bottom is a revision history which could help you narrow down an appropriate version. There is also a "how to get" link which goes to SourceForge. There you can look at the "Files" tab and seek the version you think might work.

I realize it's hit-and-miss, but it's the only thing I could find with an actual version history that might enable you to zero in on the heyday of KitKat.

Various device builds (linux, windows, etc.) are available.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
I'd stumbled onto this website before, but it looked like there was compiling and such required. I missed the Sourceforge links to actual files, though.

That said, I was able to repartition via parted (using this guide, with some adaptation - https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-dangerous-resize-system-partition.4315365/). But 2 things. One, the parted table (same with fdisk table) doesn't match the df output. However in twrp, the partition sizes are correct. And yet, once I run install the rom, it reverts back the old partition sizes. I'm going to post in that thread too.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
Have you considered a different approach: ditching GApps and using microG instead? That's what I did on my Nook Tablets. Android 7.12 may seem enticing, but putting it on hardware intended for KitKat, then piling on resource-greedy GApps may not give a comfortable result.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
Yes actually, I did. In fact I looked at a few alternatives. But I couldn't find any old enough I think it was. If I could get the partition change to stick, though, I think it would work. Evidently there are people that had success with installing and running the rom.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bankerjoe:
So I did successfully repartition and get the rom and gapps pico to install. Although there are other issues unrelated haha.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
There always are.

[HTC One X] aliguu:
hi i saw from somewhere where you can have numerous docked icons for the bottom row where normally just the 4+1 buttons.

not sure if its an app or widget or rom.

Can anyone verify?
[HTC One X] MasK:
Anything related to the dock, home screen or app drawer is due to the launcher used.

What you're referring is a scrollable dock where you can have many rows of docks when you swipe. Apex launcher has it and many others too.
[HTC One X] Reckless187:
Im using Nova Launcher and you can set how many apps you want in the dock, plus you can swipe the dock left and right for extra docks.
[HTC One X] aliguu:
thanks for the feedbacks!

it got me started on Apex :)

and i've now also tried Go Launcher as well.

I'll try nova soon.

so far i liked apex more :)

there are so many random launchers out there its confusing! :cool:
[HTC One X] aliguu:
just tried Nova.. its almost 95% identical to Apex?! lol

i guess we'll just have to choose one and stick with.

cheers.
[HTC One X] kish3n:
thanks guys! this is exactly what i have also been looking for!
[HTC One X] aliguu:
after trying few launchers around.

GO LAUNCHER is probably the best so far due to popularity (hence more themes), i can actually make everything look transparent and neat :)

But there is one really annoying point when used on ICS4 devices, which is that there is no option to disable/hide the menu bar on the bottom of the screen.

here are my screens:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Skizzy034:
I noticed while I was using the supercharger script that it recommended to use option 8 which is 768hp and not option 9 1000hp. I've read some threads before about people asking why in the task manager it only shows we have 733mb of ram on the phone and that its supposed to have 1gb. I know the system takes up a lot of ram and that's why it shows that. So my question is, does touch wiz use up that much ram? I thought tw was a "light" overlay. I remember when I had a rezound the recommendation for the supercharger script was 1000hp. Sense is supposed to be a "heavy" overlay right? Could it actually be lighter than tw? When I had an inspire it said to use 768hp, the same as now with the Note. But the inspire is "last year's" tech. I would expect the Note to be up there with the Rezound. Maybe this is why we are seeing lag sometimes? ICS seems worse in the ram usage department (600-something in the task manager). It just seems to me that the system is using up an incredible amount of resources that I haven't seen happen on other phones even with sense on them. Whenever I use the script and it recommends 768 it makes me think something is wrong and that's why we have the lag that we do. Thoughts?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sinful Animosity:
Free ram is wasted ram.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ykkfive:
no, touchwiz doesnt use up all that portion of ram. these reserved memory, as u mentioned already, is reserved for the system. for instance, your graphical display and other devices etc

i know nothing about the supercharger script, coz i don use that, but i can tell u touchwiz does eat more memory than other launchers. on the other hand, the huge memory usage in the galaxy note or android 2.3+ (esp 4.0+) devices is a result of the tasks triggered by the system like google mail service and the like, and thus slower operations due to limited free memory availability

may be i didnt get to the point, but hope this helps u understand more
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] prayii:
Our phones do have extra features that those phones do not. I have no idea if this is right or not, but maybe the extra RAM usage comes from the system needing to recognize when we are using the S Pen at any given time. That would explain the difference between GSII and Note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ghostfaceg35:
This has always been my thought on the subject as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
Ics uses more memory than GB. Thats why its only 624 mb of Ram free not to mention the S pen configuration loaded into the OS.

-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Skizzy034:
We're trying to understand why that is like that on our phone and not other newer phones
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
I think its because the Note uses the Tablet platform. Certain apps and programs run in tablet mode automatically. Then again, im just taking a stab at the dark.

-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Skizzy034:
I see what you're saying
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
Actually, I cant find the post right now but a developer has already explained that the 250 MB that you are not seeing (750+250 = 1GB) is shared video memory being utilized by the GPU.

The resolution on the Note is significantly higher than most which is why it needs 250 MB dedicated for video alone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jjc5891:
^ this...it works just like cheap laptops that don't have a dedicated video card. Some of the RAM is "stolen" and allocated towards VRAM.

hope this helps.. if not sorry for wasting your time
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If formatting SD card doesn't help - try rebooting to FASTBOOT and attempting connection. If it'll still be connected as "unrecognized device" - then you either have a bad cable or a bad USB slot, and I can even point specifically that you have a bad D+ line.

i found a super old thread on this, but it didn't have any answers. rather than ressurect that one, figured i'd just ask here.

does anyone know how to disable the baked-in power saver feature in some Samsung Android phones? the one that dims the screen, turns off the keyboard backlight, and doesn't let you use the camera once you hit 15%(or 10%) battery left? can't stand that, for my own needs anyway!

i figure it might be an edit to the kernel source code, or something like that. i just don't know where to do that. I know it can be done tho, because i remember having some ROMs on the Epic 4G that had that junk disabled. guess i'll also see if some of those old devs. are still around. thx for any advice
