x10mini

I too would love to see this.

I still use my X10i as a phone, But my girlfriends old X10mini would make a beautiful, tiny, touch screen media player.

Iv thought about just pulling the sim out, but having a custom rom/kernel without cell radio access would surely give better battery life, right?
[XPERIA X10 General] THeLogiC:
with airplane mode enabled yes the battery life would extend but I guess wifi wouldnt work in airplane mode :)
[XPERIA X10 General] 3Dota:
in couple rom ... even with airplane mode ... wifi can be enable later on ...

Such as pandora? I couldn't find an option in phone settings to turn beats on or off.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] expertzero1:
Beats only work if you have earphones or headphones on. Also it works with blurtooth. Once pandora plays or whatever beats os activated and turned off and on at the notification bar pull down.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
What I did is disabled it in the notification, then when into the app manager and disabled from there so the notification never comes back.

I hate it. Along with the beats headphones.

Makes two of us. Gimmick central.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tom_m:
It's cheesy, I'll give you that ... But it's not a gimmick. The audio chip and codec is of a certain type in order to be Beats branded. Dr. Dre bought the right to slap "Beats" on something specific.

I really don't know about the phones...But the computers...The HP Envy line (of which one I own) is the SAME chip/codec in a very few Sony and Dell models. The name escapes me now, but I did spend a good deal of time looking this up in the past. The only difference is Dell's and Sony's is from the original manufacturer and HP's has the Beats logo all up down it...Well the outside anyway. Open up the machine and it's the same chip.

Anyway, it's a actual piece of hardware in there. Does it need to say "Beats" all over the software and case? No, but that still doesn't mean it's not actually a piece of hardware that is actually giving you improved audio quality and most other phones don't possess this premium hardware. You know, people thought "hey, let's make a phone" and not "hey, let's make an ipod that you can make calls with" :D

edit -- also, the beats headphones are also good and not a gimmick. you could say they are overpriced though. i opted for Shure headphones over the Beats headphones a while back because the sound was as good but the Shure headphones were cheaper...And they also had models that were more pricey than the Beats. It's not like they also didn't have overpriced headphones too.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bman55:
It's all software based and as mentioned before only throught external sources. My us sgs2 has the "beats audio mod " on it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
The beats EQ on our phone is a gimmick.. There's no other way for me to put it. It's a preset EQ that ruins the natural sound of music. It's bloatware that will run on any device

If you need a real EQ, then get DSP manager. Tweak it to your needs.

Beats headphones are bad for the price. Muddy sound, poor instrument separation, and unrealistic lows, and average soundstage. Also I have issues with the weight and build quality.

I haven't looked into what DAC this phone has, but I heard it's pretty good and my music sounds great from it with my ATH-AD700s and my HD-25 IIs.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CraigP17:
All I know is the sound on my one X with my powerbeats headphones destroys the sound on my gnex with the same headphones.

Wow.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sonicrhythms:
So if I disable "HtcBeatsNotify", it should be turned off?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lilhyper:
I know it's a gimmick but having tried listening w/ it on and off, I prefer having it turned on.

[EVO 4G Android Development] chad0989:
This is for kernel devs only. The patch itself is useless to those who do not/can not compile their own kernel.

I know you guys already have a version of USB fast charge but this is a little different and provides additional security. It's starting to become sort of the standard for implementing fast charge. So this is just another option to the kernel devs here.

This is for kernels 2.6.35 or higher. It will not work with kernels that use the older gadget drivers.

This was a pretty big hit on some other devices so I figured I'd give it a shot for you guys. This allows one to force AC charging for any charger that is detected as USB (e.g. many car chargers) and pull the full current the charger can support. It also provides additional security when connecting to public charging stations because by forcing AC charging, USB/adb data transfers are disabled, protecting your data.

It is essentially a software version of the modified charge only usb cables.

Fast charge can be toggled by issuing:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge

and off:

echo 0 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge

In addition I have created a toggle fast charge widget that may be used to toggle fast charge on and off right from your home screen:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.incredicontrol.fastchargewidget

I have also implemented a toggle in IncrediControl (free) that will allow you to turn it on and off.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.incredicontrol

For the widget (or any fast charge toggle) to work, you MUST be running a kernel that has this patch implemented.

As a good gesture to support a fellow dev, I ask that if you implement the patch into your kernel, please link to my widget as one means to toggle it. You are of course free to provide other ways to toggle it as well if you so desire.

Kernel devs, if you would like to test the widget yourself to confirm its working, and for convenience of testing, please contact me and I will provide you with a copy. You must show that you are a kernel dev though (i.e. link me to your kernel post so I can match your username).

Good luck have fun!

http://www.incredikernel.com/wp-con...oad.php?id=supersonic_force_fast_charge.patch

Here is the stock GB sense kernel patched if someone wants to give it a test and confirm its working. There are no bells and whistles to the kernel, just the force ac patch: Make sure you turn it on before plugging the phone into the charger.

http://chad0989.dyndns.org/mirror/supersonic-fastcharge.zip
[EVO 4G Android Development] Diablo67:
First!lol,Id like to see this implemented into some future kernels,i think its a great idea.Ill give the Kernel a go now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chad0989:
Great. Let me know if you run into any issues. Patching was almost identical to the inc, inc2/s, desire so it should work. The only potential issue I think we could run into is the test kernel not booting because I don't have the device to test it on.

With it on, all sources you plug into should be detected as AC and charge as such (unless the source can't put out enough current). When its off it should behave normal (AC is AC, USB is USB).
[EVO 4G Android Development] chad0989:
Anyone confirm this for me yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ca1ne:
I didn't use the patch, but I have what you and tiny put in the kernel for underworld...I was planning on showing how to toggle with terminal and reference your widget as will as you requested in your other posts...

Hope that is acceptable..

I believe the one I used has fast_usb_charge or something akin to that..I'm at work so no access to computer...
[EVO 4G Android Development] chad0989:
That's fine. I have found that most users prefer this patch when given the option though. It gives you the additional security of disallowing USB transfers at will. Since its been demonstrated that malicious charging stations can jack your data or you can pick up malware that you take back home. That and it keeps it consistent across devices because on some devices its not possible to fast charge and have usb communication at the same time.

Either work though and the widget and incredicontrol both support both methods.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ca1ne:
I get force closes on incredicontrol, haven't tried it in a few weeks though.. I think the widget is an excellent adaptation of your mod, and if the widgets code matches incredicontrol them it can toggle both the forced patch version and the incredikernel version right? I'm hoping to have the new version of my kernel up this week with instructions and proper references.

Also about the similarities between incredible and evo, do you want the code for sbc on gingerbread sense?
[EVO 4G Android Development] chad0989:
Can you get me a log of the FC? Its most likely a permissions thing.

And yes, both the widget and incredicontrol can toggle both versions of the mod.

For some reason SBC never really worked for us, but sure I wouldn't mind taking a look at it.

[General Questions and Answers] chaoscreater:
Hey guys, just a quick question regarding restoring User Apps data from recovery.

I find myself flashing new roms more and more often these days, and it's becoming a tedious and repetitive task to install my apps and setup everything manually.

I use Titanium Backup PRO to restore my apps, and for my text messages I use GO SMS PRO to restore them.

The problem is, if you e.g. try to flash from CM7 to CM9, or flash from your current rom to an entirely different rom (which may also require a different kernel to be flashed), then as far as I know you can't simply use Titanium Backup to restore your apps data/settings. You can only use it to restore the apps (simply just installing the .apk files), but you would have to manually configure the settings all over again. I'm sure this has happened to many people with regards to using Titanium Backup when restoring user app data/settings, where they experienced corrupted data or battery drain issues etc.

As for restoring text messages with GO SMS PRO, it works but it lags and takes a long time. It would often popup the force close error box, and I would have to always choose "WAIT" to make it continue running. It may seem it's lagging or not working but in the end it restores all my messages fine.

Anyway, it's annoying to do all this setup manually, so I was wondering if it's possible to simply recover user apps data AND settings from the recovery? As far as I know, you simply recover /data from the recovery? Will that cause any problems if you were to update from CM7 to CM9?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] xjacko7x:
OK so after what seemed an eternity I finally got my update.. Other than a few visual cues I am not seeing a major difference from HC to ICS.. Am I the missing the point? I I never had too many complaints with HC and I am liking ICS so far. Just wondering if there is anything else I should be looking for.

I did download Chrome and like it..Anything else?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] dslayer83:
Dont know really. I bought mine yesterday for $80 and started playing.with it. Like all my android devices i wanted to test and tinker with it. But im still trying to get the darn thing to root lol
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] niteh@wk:
Not much visually but the guts of Android have substantial changes between HC an ICS. Apps that are written for ICS on phones can also run on tablets, thus you will notice more apps show up in the PlayStore you didn't see before in HC. As for Acer A100 specific, the supersensitive touchscreen bug is fixed in ICS. The ICS theme is also better looking than HC.

Try the Apex launcher, written specifically for ICS.

Camera ICS is also another good one.

My A100 used to be a dust collector since there wasn't much I could do. The stupid touchscreen issue really rendered the usability of the tablet useless. I'm using it much more now. I'm a tinkerer so unlocked bootloader, custom recovery, tuned ROM, all wonderful things a tinkerer would hope for.

I've tried almost a half dozen different versions of groove ip now. But everyone complains that my voice sounds staticy/robotic.

Happens on wifi and 4G. I have tried using both outgoing and incoming audio processing on older versions. So far nothing has fixed it. Their voice sounds crystal clear to me though.

What settings do you use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
bout the same for me. GrooVe IP doesn't use the best codecs in the world and its really just trial and error to get it to work best for your setup. I wouldn't expect it to work regularly on 3G, and definitely not 100% on WiFi.

You could try Talkatone, I've had a bit better success there. They use better codecs.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frigidazzi:
These are the settings I use that seem to work best for me on the newest version of groove. I only use it on wifi normally, but I have used it in a strong HSPA+ area and had good results as well. No one has complained about sounding robotic or anything. The one thing I notice is the delay. there's nothing I can do to get rid of the extra delay so far, but i don't use the phone that often so I'm fine with it. My family and friends mostly use Voxer and text now adays lol.

Audio/echo: I DONT use any echo cancel.never works well for me.

Speak volume 3

Mic gain 1

Trouble shooting: audio processing ON

Sunch voic ON

Mic buffer SMALL: reduces delay for me

mic source auto

and thats it. If I didn't mention a setting then I have it off or it's not relevant like ringtone stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colonelcack:
What version are you running? I'll try these settings later...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frigidazzi:
What ever the newest from play store is
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colonelcack:
These settings result in an echo on their end while on wifi. (see edit, might have just been because I was calling my friend on tmobile)

If I turn on the basic echo canceler the other person cannot hear me at all.

If i turn on the adaptive echo cancellation and use post processing and echo tail set to 0-200ms. They say the echo goes away (even on my friends tmobile phone) but THEN my voice becomes "staticy"

:/

edit:

if i turn off all echo cancellation (fixes staticy voice) and turn the mic gain volume down to -2 then the echo is gone if I call some numbers. Then I tried my friend on tmobile and he still has an echo. But he says it goes away if I call a landline....

ugh! it was never this hard to figure out on my old optimus v. Why they can't figure out the echo processing settings for such a nice piece of hardware is beyond me...especially seeing as how groove ip posted about BUYING a galaxy nexus for settings testing on their facebook months ago! :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frigidazzi:
Sorry to hear that my friend. Out works ok for me. All of the echo settings caused heading issues for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colonelcack:
You don't have people complain about an echo only some of the time? ie. only certain providers/phones...

This is may be due to higher current density of battery that loads undesired fluctuations in components... so better u go for its required battery support not much more than allowed specifications....

I'm reviewing this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0078VTQ2M/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00 I forgot to mention in the title this is for the GSM GNex only.

First of all, it has a tray insert that's removable, so if you have a case, it will accommodate it, within reason. If you don't have a case, and you put the phone in with the tray insert, it's a very tight fit as you can see in the picture, and goes into place with a satisfying click that I hope isn't slowly breaking my USB port. You will have to hold onto the dock to pull the phone out.

It is a simple charger in that it only has one MicroUSB port in, but it comes with two USB cables: one for power only, and one for syncing. I can confirm that the sync aspect does work, though I'll be using it almost exclusively for charging. One of my concerns was that because the vertical dock blocks the speaker port, I would not be able to hear the alarm. It's still quite loud. I guess it's just if you cover it with your hand that it muffles. The charger does have a spare battery port, but I do not have a spare battery to test that function.

One thing I was a bit surprised about, and maybe it's just because I came from a Galaxy S, but the phone does not automatically go into home dock mode when it's plugged in. This is not a problem for me because I can get to it through Beautiful Widgets, but I'm still uncertain if this is a bug or a feature.

Considering how much the Samsung docks are, if you don't need HDMI out, this is a pretty good deal.

I think it is worth the update. ICS still has a few annoying little quirks, but its a lot smoother on the Tablet S and just all around nice to look at.

You can use condi's tool to update to a pre-rooted version of ICS, just make sure you follow the directions very carefully.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1515720

You can safely update to unrooted ICS from rooted Honeycomb without any problems, but once you have unrooted ICS you will no longer be able to root your tablet until a new exploit is found. So if you really want root, condi's tool is the way to go when you upgrade to ICS. Good luck!
