[Sony Tablet S] -DM-:
This worked (re-enabled writing to sdcard2) for me on my Sony Tablet SGPT112USS updated and rooted ICS 4.0.3. I used ROM Toolbox app to mount the file system as rw, used a text editor to make the change to platform.xml, then used ROM Toolbox to mount the file system back to ro. Hope this helps. Found this on the web. Thanks to the original poster (forgot their handle).

1. Using a root-enabled file manager, navigate to /system/etc/permissions and make sure you have mounted the file system r/w.

2. Edit platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.

3. Add an additional group definition for this permission...<group gid="media_rw" />

4. Save the changes to the file.

5. Restart your tablet.

After editing platform.xml file my both sdcards are not writable anymore...looking for some help on this
[Sony Tablet S] caracho:
Your changes made the platform.xml file invalid and thus unusable causing more errors ont he way. Check it with XML parser for errors (loading it in browser like firefox or chrome, which supports xml will do) - the couse will be probably something trivial like using wrong quote characters or unclosed xml tag.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iniquitousone:
Hey XDA, I have a quick question about basebands - primarily how they effect signal reception. I am using AT&T in Austin, Texas, using JJ's hybrid ROM on Stock ICS on an Xperia Arc using baseband 56. I almost always maintain HSPA+ (like 95% of the time), but the thing is occasionally I'll get data rates slower than EDGE. I was wondering if anyone who is experienced in baseband can explain if baseband 70 would be a better alternative for me, or if it's really just something I have to try on my own. Battery life on baseband 56 has been fantastic too.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hk2006:
Keep having signal drop problem. After flashed official 4.1.A.0.562 firmware with 70 baseband ROM. My setting is WCDMA only, I been to places that shouldn't have signal drop - crowd city. It drop to a cross from full.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
Excellent guide :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
It may be because I'm both skeptical of us R800x users ever getting a real ICS, and the fact that going back to gingerbread sounds really tempting, but do you know / could you list the differences for compiling a gingerbread kernel for, say, CM7?
[Xperia Play Android Development] savage24x:
Kieran just told me to go to Sony's site. Thanks!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Phryxus:
Now I've read over this but I'd like to know exactly what a new Linux kernal can do for us? Does it allow us to do more stuff with any custom rom we create?
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Do this in place of #4 (in the guide)

4) git clone https://github.com/freexperia/semc-kernel-msm7x30 -b master <optional_name_you_want_the_folder_to_be>

& You'll get their sources for GB instead of ics

Alternatively, if you wanna do it from SEMC kernel sources,

Download them from: http://developer.sonymobile.com/cws/devworld/technology/opensource un-tar/bzip them & work from kernel/
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Here's a better explanation than I can do :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atarii:
This is an awesome guide, definitely recommend to all, if you're interested in getting into kernel development.

The only thing maybe worth mentioning is where to copy the compiled wifi drivers and modules (governors etc) from, after the kernel has compiled
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
I'm having a problem at the "Building the Kernel" step. I ran the command, albeit slightly different than you wrote, and got this error:

"make: *** No rule to make target `mjolnir_zeus_defconfig'. Stop."

Do I not have my NDK installed properly, or what?

Edit: Nevermind, was hit by a confusion spell. It's cured, and all is well. At least, for now.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
btw, in the future you will want to clone: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/semc-kernel-msm7x30.git

ics branch

But FXP haven't updated kernel in a while, so you could use my CM9 kernel sources if you like: https://github.com/DarkforestGroup/sony-kernel-msm7x30-ics

master branch

Difference is, mine is made from pure Sony PLAY beta sources, while FXP use arc beta sources :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
I have successfully compiled a kernel for CM7. Thanks, pax, for this tut, and all other developers for their contributions!
[Xperia Play Android Development] DooMLoRD:
the NDK toolchain isnt good...

i have test them and they throw un-necessary errors...

best use gcc-4.4.3 toolchain from CM repo... it works with almost all device kernels i develop for...

u can also try gcc-4.6.2 toolchain (linaro)...

a working copy of both can be found at my git repo:

https://github.com/DooMLoRD/android_prebuilt_toolchains
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atarii:
+1 to that, I use your arm-eabi-4.4.3 prebuilt :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
Apparently I was a little premature in my findings. Having a hell of a time with the fxp sources for CM7. For some reason, I just can't get my cpu frequencies to come down from Max. DooMLoRD, what am I missing?
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
It's been a while since I gave an update here, but my ics kernel is doing fine. I just gave up on gingerbread. My new question: How would I go about changing recovery and such? I prefer DooMLoRD's recovery over Keiran's, but since I'm using Keiran's sources, I don't know what to do to get a different recovery.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Try replacing the recovery executable in /sbin/ with DooMLoRDs
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
I'm at work right now, but I'll try when I get home. I plan on doing some digging for the sake of learning, but that's going to wait for the weekend.

Edit: Thanks Keiran, that worked. Like I said, I'll be poking around some more this weekend, just to see what I can mess with. Too bad I never got this far on my older phones...

[Desire General] alexburna:
Hi guys,

I'm looking for a way to USB-Brick my Desire on purpose. It already was USB-Bricked, I'd unbricked it and now I'm looking for a way to get it USB bricked again.

You may asking why I'm trying to do that.

The background is my Desire has lots of bad blocks on misc partition and has 3.14.405.1 installed. Due to the bad blocks, I'm not able to S-OFF the phone and therefore nor root neither custom roms. I therefore want to send it to repair.

I tried to flash a mtd0.img with all-zero and with random content, no luck, USB is still working.

Strange question, I know :p

Regards,

Alex

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sassafras_:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
To add to this, youtube's bitrate for 1080p is quite lacking. If you are looking to take a video from a video-sharing site, use try vimeo- I believe they offer a higher bitrate.

When I text I get duplicate replies. It did not do this under stock rom which was .902. I upgraded to Eclipse 2.2 and when I did that if I texted then I get duplicate replies always 2. I have a friend that has upgraded it Liberty 3 and he has the same problem.

I have a Bionic.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ROB281:
Hell I've gotten as many as 9 copies of the same reply. That's while using handcent, got duplicates with stock app as well.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
I also get this occasionally. One time I had to reboot because it would not stop receiving
[Motorola Droid Bionic] whomhead:
Occasionally, I will get multiples as well. Sometimes 10 or more.

I use Go SMS on 902 / Eclipse 2.2.

Really annoying.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] zakkyzombie:
When you notice it starting do a battery pull. Its not the ROM. Its the app..

Look through the settings and make sure that in the stock you change the time stamp settings to no stamps. And if using go make sure the avoid duplicate messages is checks. It cured me.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
Removed full time stamp in settings on default SMS. Will see if it corrects issue
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
Two days now and no duplicates. Reverting back to timestamp to see if it comes back.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] skeven:
Oh wow, and here I thought it was just me having this problem.

I'll have to try out the timestamp toggle because nothing is worse than getting the same message 10 times in a row.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
So a few days past with no issues after reverting the timestamp however last night I got multiple duplicate text messages from the same contact. Three texts in a row x three texts received. Then it stopped. I find it strange that the timestamp appears to be the problem. Oh well, removed timestamping again.

I've been having the same issue. Called Verizon and they said it's a hardware issue with the Bionic. They're sending me a white Razr to replace it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ROB281:
How did you get a Razr, my guy said he could only send me another Bionic?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] oildriller83:
This would be my fourth replacement Bionic, and I asked if I could get a different phone and first she told me the Razr was taken off the replacement list but she'd email her supervisor if it was put back on. While she waited for a response, she said I could get the HTC Rezound, and I declined. She then said the Razr was available in black, and I asked nicely if I could get white and she said yes it's available.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ROB281:
Cool so just keep finding reasons to send them back, then ask for a razr
[Motorola Droid Bionic] oildriller83:
Im sure that'll work. I believe in the 3rd replacement you're allowed a different phone

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wingman1234:
Hi,

I have a docomo SC-04D Galaxy Nexus from Newegg. I got it just days before Google started selling it :( It has ICS 4.0.1, sim unlocked with a proper IMEI. I have a few questions about updating and unlocking it; I was hoping one of you guys might be able to help me out with some questions I have.

I'm hoping to forever unlock it using mrx8836350's F*** docomo app V3.1 keeping the original IMEI and update it to 4.0.4. However, since I'm a complete beginner to Android, I thought I might use the phone as it is for a few days before jumping into the whole rooting/flashing/unlocking thing.

1. Is there a way to find out if the sim unlock is temporary or permanent?

2. Today I received a system update from Samsung (~8.4 MB), but I haven't installed it yet. The phone prompts me to install it from time to time. If my sim unlock is temporary, will applying the update wipe out the unlock?

3. If I'm to try forever unlock and update to 4.0.4 (by flashing stock yakju image), should I unlock first and then update, or do it the other way around?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staniotsui2012:
1.FULL wipe the phone is the fastest way to find out.

2.Theoricaly,no.but u may have the phone permanently unlocked if it touch your nerves.

3.Update to 4.0.4 first,then fxxk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wingman1234:
[Q] [SOLVED] Docomo GNex: Need some help with OTA and sim unlock

Thanks for the answer (although it came a bit late ;)). I have already updated to 4.0.4. First I tried the OTA update, but it didn't work (comes to the screen with the exclamation mark and goes back to 4.0.1 after reboot). I came to know it happened probably because some firmware (boot, recovery, etc.) coming from a different build (or non-stock). Having being fed up with the update notifications, I then flashed 4.0.4 from the google image and the sim unlock survived the process. So I guess the sim unlock was permanent after all.

Here is a link to two stock launchers that come with the Sharp 3D phones.

They have a nice toggle button on them that lets you change between 2D & 3D on your home screen. another nice feature is that you can set your own captured 3D photo as your wallpaper (in 3D of course).

http://bitshare.com/files/gdhrfowa/3Dhome.zip.html

Please have a go at getting them to work on the Evo3D. If needed by a developer I could also post the 3D conversions software and a 3rd party widget that makes the 3D effect work with any Home app.

I absolutely love my SH-12c, but I would gladly go down from dual 8 mega-pixel cameras to 5 and lose my TV function to switch to Evo3D for 1GB of RAM. But I can't live without 3D animated GIF or video live wallpaper. If you had it you'd know what I mean. It's AWESOME! I can live with charging my phone just a little more often for that.

Noob question but I can't find a definitive answer from the search and want to be absolutely sure.

I'm currently on CM9 nightly builds but I'm finding it a little laggy if I do not reboot regularly and have been curious to test out the DMORE gingerbread ROM

What is the best way to do this?

Am I right in thinking that I can flash CF-Root with Odin now and then flash DMORE with cwm after that?

Do I tick repartition in ODIN?

Ta v much

:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imgibby123:
Hi , you are already rooted so no need to flash new cf root.....in the op of cm9 it says that going back to gingerbread(cm7) will need flashing twice , so you could just put the new rom on your internal sd then flash it twice without reboot inbetween , after wipe of course.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshJoshJoshJosh:
Ah, so I don't even need to bother with ODIN, thats good.

Cheers :)

EDIT: Even though in the OP of the DMORE rom it says I must already be on Gingerbread just doing two flashes will get around this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imgibby123:
I would probably take the safe option and downgrade to gingerbread ....but the 2 flash method should do the trick , worst that could happen would be having to go back stock through odin anyway :)
