I want to put a mod or a theme for status bar to be styled like an iPhone :D 4s, if its possible, or a tutorial how to do that.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Just saw this. Exciting. Hope its true.

Found this just now. Android Guys has a article saying Verizon R800x Users getting ICS 4/30

Xperia Play- update in testing, OTA scheduled for April 30th

http://www.androidguys.com/2012/04/...m_campaign=Feed:+androidguyscom+(AndroidGuys)

----Edit

Sorry, must have missed this part...

If you don't have one of the aforementioned Androids, fret not. There are a few others (listed below) that have updates in testing, although it's not specified if the updates are to Ice Cream Sandwich.

HTC Thunderbolt- update in testing, OTA scheduled for May 10th

Droid Bionic- update in testing, OTA scheduled for May 3rd

Xperia Play- update in testing, OTA scheduled for April 30th

Galaxy Tab 10.1- update in testing, OTA scheduled for May 3rd

LG Revolution- update in testing, OTA scheduled for May 16th

With any luck, we'll see some of these updates being rolled out over the next few weeks. I'd be willing to bet that at least one of them gets pulled because of bugs, but we can't all be perfect. More on this as it develops.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiKeJ:
Very good find, friend :).
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
I know.... exciting. Think the reason so soon is because R800x uses vanilla Android, so no Timescape skin to work around, although there is the SE framework

How are things going DikeJ? Been good?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leraeniesh:
The only thing I see wrong with this is that it would imply we receive ICS before GSM guys, which doesent make much sense.

Sent from R800x
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Well maybe I am just being hopefull. But remember our CDMA phones do not have Timescape skin.... we are on Vanilla Android. With that in mind I am hoping that it makes it easier for ICS to be developed for our phones...... again just me being hopeful....thoughts?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeiranFTW:
Probably not, Timescape for ICS is already complete in the Arc S official update, which also will run on the arc and will probably run on the play.

Maybe Sony has kicked Verizon up the arse this time, or they are releasing both at the same time.

And bare in mind, Sony said they would not be giving out any OTA's.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Dand... your right. Completely forgot about the No OTA.......wonder what i it could be then... guess we'll have to wait. Hey isnt next tuesday some big announcement from Sony? Could it be PSN store in the US on Xperia PLAY?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leraeniesh:
Verizon only does OTA updates.

Thats how they have been doing things for the last 7 years.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeiranFTW:
I think if you don't get this ICS update, find an unhappy AT&T customer with the R800at, then swap :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Well... I had been with Cingular (Now AT&T) for 5 years, then switched to Verizon a year ago and I think there service blows. On AT&T I was getting over 1mbps data plan. Verizon.....250kbps. I know I cannot blame them for that its the mountains I live by.... but I have had so many dropped calls. AT&T none in years.... so next year I will jump ship most likely.... just not very pleased with Verizon. And I work right next to a corporate office... maybe I should go there for my update for my phone!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogue Leader:
Thinking about it, its very likely 2.3.4 so that the PSN store works on the Verizon Play. Sony likely told them that they HAD to release it so the store would work, otherwise there would be plenty of unhappy customers, directing their rage likely at Sony....
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiKeJ:
Emmm, yes. I'm better than before - my hands are fixed (95% of progress in rehabilitation, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome), so soon I will back in development and will make ROM based on official ICS (when it will be). Next I think I won't make much big topics, cause this problem can back, and my doctor said I need to stop using computer forever (I mean I can't using it too much), this is sh*t ;/.

How about you? Things going on ok? :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Going well. Wife has hasn't killed me yet, but some day my picture will be on a milk carton for sure. :D

I'm good. Just working and remodeling my new home. Got my wifes family coming from China in 3 months to visit for 6 months. So I am excited to see them, plus it will be their first time here.

I also have my tablet rooted but cant seem to get clockworkmod working and when I turn off my tablet and then plug it into charge it starts up again but now seems to freeze on ASUS logo startup page.

We are having a lot of troubles solving the bugs that are still there. Wifi, Camera, SD Storage just wont wanna be solved. Dont ask for any ETAs, it is a hard work but our team is working so hard in order to give you ppl ICS and MIUI4.

I hope you can be more patient, there was a lot of time we dont have any ICS at all, now we have. Learn to be patient with developers. We all have a life out here.
[LG Optimus Black] yuiq0504:
Thank you for developers

I think we just want to understand the progress of miuiV4.

At least, Chinese user so,

every day people pay close attention to the development of MIUI V4.

MiuiV4 has many serious problems, for small errors, we have not tested, the new

version is released, we will carry out a more comprehensive testing, hope to your

group feedback error, hope it is helpful to the development of miuiV4.
[LG Optimus Black] shourov:
U guys are really freaking geniuses...well i thought i bought a wrong phone but it turned out to be a good 1 just becus u guys are there.. and also if u see i didnt even mention any update or ETA's which i dont give a damn. aslong as u guys are there i know for sure that someday we will have what we want...;) :cool:

Does MIUI4 have option to remap the press-Hold of the Capacitive keys? CM7 has it and I will miss them.

Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
And seriously, stop asking for ETA's, or there might never be a public release and we will just use it on our phones. We dont need no beta testers, we know all the bugs, present in that ROM. We all can read logcats :p

We all spend almost all of our free time. We often sit there till morning hours and work on it. And the progress is huge. Often only small steps, but though a lot of work remains, till we can deliver a stable alpha. Beta seems to be a bit too far away, to promise it will be there soon. Camera, sound and some gsm bugs remain.

So lean back and wait for a release. :D
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Alright guys, good news, we got audio working :D

Now we "only" need to fix the camera and some gsm issues and we're good to go for beta stage :D

This is a comparison between my and my girlfriend's Amazes, her phone still running 2.3.4, stock Sense 3.0. Both phones are set to full brightness:

My girl's Amaze:

Mine:

As you can see, there is a big difference, her phone looks brighter with more clear display and real black, while mine is not really black anymore, but more like very dark grey. Has anyone else with ICS noticed this?
[HTC Amaze 4G] dharvey4651:
Pretty sure that's by design with this new update. What you're seeing is a software change. If it truly was a backlight issue, you wouldn't notice it in screenshots as it would be a hardware issue. The screenshots would appear the same.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lgtsanev:
I was assuming it's a software change, just wasn't sure because no one had mentioned it. This dark grey background really looks like an issue to me, though, I've also noticed that sometimes when I long press the display to choose a widget, for a second there I get a grey background with a grid of dots (similar to what you see on the first picture above the "All apps" sign, but slightly darker).
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
He's right. You can't see brightness on a screenshot. It must be a software change.

Hey XDA,

I'm running PixelRom 1.7.2 and Trinity TEUV and my phone is almost always running at 1000Mhz, which is causing terrible battery life. Even if I'm just idling at my launcher, it will go that high... Anybody know how to get it to stay at lower frequencies? Oh and my governor is Ondemand and scheduler is Deadline. Hope someone can help...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
teuv runs at 880mhz.

its possible that an app or a background process is active. try this free app from the market, its called diagnosis https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.diagnosis&hl=en
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FirePoncho86:
I thought it did too, but NsTools and CPU spy both give me: 100Mhz, 200Mhz, 400Mhz, 800Mhz, 1000Mhz, and 1096Mhz. I will try the tool from the market (yes, I still calls it the market)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
1096... thats not teuv, that the t11 kernel. heres the latest teuv http://goo.gl/5JwMT im using this one at the moment :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FirePoncho86:
My thanks good man, that was the one I was looking for, now I feel quite silly :3

Right now, just at my launcher, cpu is switching from 92% to 100% usage :s
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
if you just booted, it should(for about 2-4 minutes) then it should drop. unless you have an active live wallpaper, an app thats not written very well, or a process thats gone wild. try that app i linked, let it run for a few hours, maybe you can find the cause.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FirePoncho86:
My phone had been on for a few hours... :(

Also, I flashed TEUV, and I don't think my phone handles it very well (TEUV has GPU overclock). Once I booted, it gave me a black screen and said: (Application) has stopped working for every app on startup. This happened twice, so I went back to Matr1x and battery is still terrible...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
sounds like a bad download of teuv.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FirePoncho86:
Bad download? I flashed it properly and it booted fine, until after the "optimizing applications" screen
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ITenson:
is this the first charge since you flash the kernel? If it is, let the battery run out, charge it full and take a look at it again. I find that ICS really take a full charge to stablize its battery... my first charge after flashing a new kernel has always use a lot more battery than the second charge.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FirePoncho86:
Alright, I'll try that... Also I went back to aosp+ because I really like it.

Also, android system is always using 20% cpu, even on idle..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADJack:
I remember performing some tests with frequencies and deep idle - I wanted to find out the minimum frequency required to run music player screen-off with few concurrent processes. I remember reading how 400mhz is the optimal frequency for deep idle but cpu spy would always report it cruising at 1ghz and cross referenced with nstools DI stats, it was supposedly in deep idle. With DI off and bumping up the frequency to 800mhz, 1ghz took up the majority of operation time. Long story short, whatever combination I tested did not garner desirable results. That was a couple weeks ago, though. I've since given up on figuring it out.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FirePoncho86:
Wait, are you having the same problem as me?Ive lost 5% battry just by having the screen on for 9 minutes...

hi, i wanted to know how can I enable or why my whatsapp is not showing me the pictures of my contacts, I have all my contacts on my google account, none on the phone, and none on the sim card, and a lot of the are linked to facebook, twitter, etc.

and if you look at contacts all of them show the pictures, but in whatsapp only a few show the pictures of the contacts

any solution?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michalpro:
Probably you are not able to see Facebook contact photos in whatsapp. There were allowed to be "pulled" in Sense 3.0 but in Sense above this version they are not shown.

There are few solutions:

1. If you have a rooted phone you can try Photo Unlocker application, sadly, it has been pulled out from the market so you would need to search XDA for it.

2. You can use HaxSync to sync the pictures from Facebook and they would show normally. Alternative app is called Friend Caster.

3. People say there was an update to Whatsapp recently (can't see any on the market to be honest just now) which enables it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qaliza:
After synchronizing your contacts with facebook, use photounlocker to unlock the restriction on facebook contacts.

1- open app

2- press check, it will ask for root permissions

3- press check again

4- press unlock

Done

Enjoy

on Aosp you need to manually add a picture to each contsct you have, but this process you do it once in s liftime and whatever the rom you will be using your contacts photo will remain on any google phone

Hello Devs,

I am just new here. I have the YP-G70CWY-XXA GB version, it is on 2.3.5 and I want to update it to 2.3.6. My question is, What is the best version to install via Odin and will it work without updating the Kernel?

Another question is, is it possible to Ram swap with class 4 mSD on our units?

Last is, is it possible to unroot?

Thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Chris4evernoob:
Just check out any rom that is compatible with your device (US/INTL). It all comes down to your personal decision.

What do you mean by ram swap? A micro sd is just extra storage.

As for unrooting, you have to see according to the rom you'll flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ben_2g0:
Ram

Sorry if I am mistaken. I am really new to Android and wants to learn it.

I just want to root it and change some scripts if possible and then unroot it. But if the tings that I am looking for are in one of the roms, might as well use that rom. Any Stock kernel around. I hold 2 versions of SGP. one with Button and the other has none. have soft B the none and now looking for solutions. It may just need a kernel reflashing.

Anyway, thank you for the reply and more power to the dev people like you.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] theraf:
why do you care wether it's rooted or not? it makes no real difference, other than being able to access the root of your sgp...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ben_2g0:
I do care. I respect the hard work of dev techies. Root I need to insert series of scripts for my own use. Unfortunately, I found the scripts in pastebin. This unit will serve me as a remote for a server. comprende?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] theraf:
You aren't causing damage to anyone or anything by rooting, just giving yourself more freedom
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ben_2g0:
Just stock is enough. I will use it to control and monitor AIX servers coupled with AS based systems. Due to my job, I wont take the risk staying rooted. besides, I just want it stock/ I got ADB running on one AIX system to dev. so, I have my reasons and you have yours I am sure. It is just a job for me.

OK you want to swap your micro sd card with another. Of course it's possible. It's just external storage. I never tried with a 64gig card but in the accessories forum other members said it works for them.
