[Android Software Development] MaR-V-iN:
Hi,

I started developing an XMPP/Jabber/GoogleTalk/... client for Android that is designed as a replacement for Google Talk app.

Currently it does not support Google Talk however it is a good jabber client with conferences.

It is in deep development - so there are many buttons that do not work properly - but i would like you to test it :)

I have no screenshots yet - but imagine google talk ones here - it looks and behaves like it.

source: https://github.com/mar-v-in/XMPP-for-Android

latest test version download (might be unstable): https://github.com/mar-v-in/XMPP-for-Android/raw/master/bin/xmpp.client.apk

Notes:

Before you start the app the first time, create an account in settings/accounts&sync

The app only supports conferences saved server-side. However some popular XMPP-clients store them offline (what is not what they should do!) - use Gajim on your pc to setup. - http://gajim.org/

Hope you like it.

I rooted my razr last night and im gonna keep my stock rom. I was interested in upgrading to update 6.12.181 . My question is will i lose root and if i do can i root it again with that update?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joao.ofb:
I believe you'll need to root again, just if you reflash another rom. Updating through the default way, you won't lose the root, I guess. ( and if you lose, you'll be able to do it again )
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MichaelMcC:
Goto market and install OTA Rootkeeper. Then run it and backup root. It's straight forward and required a single tap. Then using Rootkeeper tap on uninstall root.

Then update your phone.

Run OTA Rootkeeper again and tap restore root. I restart my phone after but you don't have to.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abvthegod:
There is root available after im on that update.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stkiswr:
Just get ota root keeper. Do not install safe strap or bootstrap. You don't e end have to unroot to install update. Do not freeze any apps. Just run ota root keeper. Make it backup root. Accept the ota. Once it reboots, restore root via ota root keeper. Worked great for me.

Yes. After you get RSPL/HSPL, then you need the ROM zip file. 8779 Tango is the latest (if I am wrong please correct me :) ) but I only found 8773 Tango which is the 2nd latest I suppose (Sorry I'm not a wp7 user but I helped my friend to flash rom everytime he needs help =.=).

Just for the heck of it I did a search for an update for my phone today, as I've turned off the automatic search after rooting.

It came back with a download of about 59Mb for the OTA_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.78.401.2-1.53.401.2_release_258562piuubd9lrapskwje.zip

But no matter what I try, it won't install. I've got paul's interim recovery installed, and it just turns out some gibberish about some assertion error.

Anyone have some advice?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DigitalPerson:
hi

yesterday I have bought a new galaxy nexus

and updated it to latest version android 4.0.4 IMM76l

but there is 2 problems

1- I have enabled the pulse notification led but the led doesn't flashing when there is a missed call or new SMS

the led only flashing when the phone is ringing during the incoming call notification

is this normal or not??

2-I have tried to attach a USB mouse to the Galaxy Nexus using a USB adapter

the mouse led has lighted but the mouse doesn't work I have tried another mouse and the same problem

is there any problem with the phone??

or maybe the problem is that the USB adapter isn't compatible with the phone

the adapter is working correctly in galaxy s2

and I have seen a lot of videos shoes that the Galaxy Nexus should work with USB mouse without any root or programs

and Google also says that here

http://support.google.com/ics/nexus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1650160

please let me know cause the phone has warranty and I can return it if there is any problem with the phone

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] milden:
to your first question: try the app "lightflow" from google play

to your second question, i don't know never tried this
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blue0302:
I don't know about the mouse, but for your LED needs, I'd just download Light Flow from the Play Store. It'll do everything for you (set color, frequency)...SMS, calls, email, battery, etc. The Pro version will give you options for more apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
1) the screen needs to be off and the led will light up after the notification or missed call has happened not during. The usb pulse is slow by default. YOU DO NO need light flow like others have suggested but, it make customizing led notifications a lot better and is highly recommended.

2) not sure why usb mouse isnt working could be adapter could be mouse could be the kernel ... i dont know why you would want to connect a mouse anyway?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DigitalPerson:
I have tried light flow app and the led works with it

but without the light flow app its not working I have watched the led for 5 minutes and it doesn't flashed at all even though

-the screen is turned of

-the pulse notification led option is enabled

-there is a missed call and new SMS
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DigitalPerson:
2) I just want to make sure that the device is working properly cause I wanna root it to use StickMount app to be able to use a USB stick

could u please try to attach a USB mouse to your device and let me know if it works or not?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DigitalPerson:
I have found that the led works when there is Google talk notification

but it doesn't work when there is missed call, SMS or any other type of notification

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] besucher98:
As strange as it may sound I want to use a Galaxy Note as an internet only device.

Is there a way that I can use one of the AT&T data only options (Data Connect Plan) on this device?

I currently have the AT&T version of the Galaxy Note. AT&T has confirmed to me that there is no way to have a data only plan for it. I simply to not want to dump $40 dollars a month on a phone service I will not use just to get the right to pay them $30 for data.

So, I am trying to explore if the international version is the answer.

What is important to me is the size and features of the Galaxy Note.

What is not important to me is 4g or phone service.

Any help or definitive answer would be appreciated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geekybiker:
I would imagine it should. ATT won't have a record of your IMEI number so they really don't know what the device is. Other people have been using the non- smartphone data plan on ATT, but the occasionally get booted up to the smartphone plan with so much data usage. Just tell them you have a 3g tablet you want to hook up. I'd buy a new sim card just to make sure you don't have issues with your old account. Not definitive, but just the fact that people are using international notes on dumbphone data says a lot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vjraj:
AT&T and T Mobile

Hi, I have a unlocked N7000 that I picked up in India earlier this year. I live in the UK and works very well over her on Vodafone. I was in the US last week. I tried AT&T and was told by the techie that it will not work on the 4G network. Then went to T Mobile where I was told it would work only on 2G - Landed up buying a SIM card from them to see that my pre-paid balance dropped drastically and they were very unhelpful when I went back to them - they guy in the store told me that he can not access my use. I did not make any international calls on it at all. I landed up buying a SIMPLE Mobile sim card and it worked well between 3G and 2G. It even worked when I was at Hoover Dam. The Samsung website does give all the platforms it works on and I cant see why it would should not work on AT&T.

Also read the customer reviews of the Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 16GB Unlocked Android Smartphone - Dark Blue on the Amazon US website. One of the users has written up on it. As I am a new user I am not able to put the link on this reply.

Hope it's helpful. Good Luck.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] besucher98:
Thanks for the input so far, but...

Well, what I am looking for is the "data only" type of service. This is for USB (Mobile) Modem, tablets, iPad's, etc. AT&T callis it data connect. I currently have the pre-paid version of it for for a 7in. tablet. And it (the service) work just perfect on that device.

I have read lots of posts talking about data, but when you focus in it normally is the other way around, a phone service option where they can't get the data to work correctly.

Again, all I want is data, I don't want phone service. If anyone has done this with their Note, I would appreciate a heads up on how it worked out.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gedster314:
I'm currently using my Note with my ATT ipad sim. Been using that sim in my mifi, a couple of laptops with 3G, an iphone and now my note. Been using it that way since the 3G Ipad first came out 3 years ago. I believe that all the data sims use the same apn. Just enter broadband as the APN. I have seen speeds from 1.9Mbps to 8.2Mbps, usually around 4 until lately...been getting 6.5. I consistently get 1Mbps up. The connection is has been very stable, Skype voice has been working very well.

Your data sim and note will work without modification, just enter the APN. In my case, I made an adapter since the ipad is a micro sim, the store bought adapter I had was too thick for the note. Be very careful when using micro sims, it can be a PTA to get them out. For removal I usually slide plastic or cardboard between the sim and the contact pins so the adapter does not get caught on the pins and then work the sim out with an exacto blade.

If you want ipad service, just go into an ATT and tell them you lost your ipad sim and you left your ipad at home. Who remembers your their data phone number? They will sell you a replacement. Then just barrow someone's 3g ipad, insert your sim, go into settings and create your account with your credit card #. Remove your sim and your done. The other person can put their sim, sign in and that's it. Once a month you get an email saying ATT billed your account and it shows up on your statement.

edit

I just looked at ATT's site, guess it does not matter anymore, they made Data cost the same across the board. Does not matter if it's pre paid, post paid or ipad, it's all the same now.

Just the news I was looking for, THANKS!

:D

Great news. Thanks for taking the time to share that with me.

For any future readers, just to confirm:

A DATA ONLY plan with a 3G sim from AT&T worked fine in the gt-n7000, international version of the galaxy note.​

Hi,

Sorry of this is covered elsewhere but a search did not turn anything obvious up for me. I've just purchased a UK O2 HTC One X and love it....apart from the well documented battery life issues. O2 are still shipping the HOX on 1.26 firmware.

Is there any way I can get the HTC1.29 FOTA update? Do I need to unlock the phone or root it? basically whats involved in getting out of carrier based updates (and their delays!) and on to the 'vanilla' HTC updates?

Thanks

Follow the link above and you get to see the results i managed with the app. Pretty decent i say.:) And that was just on first cycle..Will keep you guys updated
[HTC One X] Rycon33:
Looks good, is it a good idea to use it together with my juice defender ultimate? Or does it manage the radios as well?
[HTC One X] Goku80:
manages the radios as well;) basically it does what Juice defender does but it is more simpler and easier to use :) from what i have gathered
[HTC One X] salada2k:
Actually it sounds to me like Juice Defender ultimate has a couple of extra features. I've been using Easy Battery Saver and really like it, but I'm switching over to JuiceDefender so I can use the enable/disable WiFi based on location (since I only use WiFi when im at home). EBS doesnt support that (yet).

Either way, if you have a One X, you should be running one of these apps as they really do seem to make a difference. If didnt touch my phone for a few hours the other day, and it only lost 1%. It puts the phone in super-idle mode when you're not using it, especially due to disabling mobile data (and 3G) when the screen is locked and the phone is in your pocket. Awesome idea. The phone then wakes up momentarily to do things like check for new emails, etc, based on a schedule you can tweak. These apps are must haves.
[HTC One X] R00l:
I agree either one is great to have. IMO, I don't think Juice Defender Ultimate turns on the network (Wifi 3g) fast enough, which can cause some waiting and annoyance.
[HTC One X] mikey0105:
will try and give a feedback after a couple of days
[HTC One X] Sipheren:
Installed tonight, I got 8 hours from my battery today, that was with fairly heavy use.

[HTC One X] brentett:
are you using intelligent mode?
[HTC One X] okini:
I used it before, honestly I didnt see much of an improvement with it. I'm using juicedefender ultimate now however and this one actually works. It does save a little bit of juice although it's still not a significant improvement.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
so you used both? what is your overall impression
[HTC One X] forumhookersdotcom:
Advanced mode in juice defender ultimate. Now I removed all to check again the battery stats without any app.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
Those are my battery results. Could get more screen on time but for first go not bad I say.
[HTC One X] okini:
well, Im getting really horrible battery times on my one x and I really dont get how you guys manage to squezze so many battery hours out of your devices. I can get just over 3 hours of non gaming, non heavy application screen time until the battery is completely depleted and this is with juicedefender up and running. Juicedefender does improve my batter life a little bit, it is noticeable, however its not significant. I tried a number of different battery apps and so far juicedefender is the ONLY one that has worked at all but as I already mentioned, the improvement is very small although good enough for me to keep using it.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
either you have a fault with your battery or something wrong with your setup..tell me something do you have lockscreen sounds on and touch key sounds on as well?
[HTC One X] Ripley:
All battery saver apps do is things you can do yourself like disabling mobile data and wifi when not using the screen. Extending battery life is common sense...disable auto sync, adjust the brightness, disable wifi when not in use, disable key vibrate etc etc.

And displaying battery use images are irrelevant unless it's 100% screentime.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
do not worry i still feel the same about battery apps. but lately kinda having the change of mind about them and it is nice to have it do it for you. still sitting on the fence here but will give more tests with the app and without to see if it makes a difference. :)
[HTC One X] Ripley:
The benefit of having a battery app work for you is counteracted by the battery power they use themselves lol.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
well we can agree to disagree i guess;)
[HTC One X] Sipheren:
This is my level after today using battery saver intelligent and the custom Rom revolution.

yesterday with the phone stock it was dead before now...
[HTC One X] salada2k:
OK I've been using these apps and all I can say is this: They DO save you battery, simply (as was mentioned earlier) for doing things like switching off the radios etc when theyre not needed. They primarily save you more battery when you're NOT using the phone, in terms of practical usage.

There is no escaping the fact that the screen is a battery sucking whore, and personally what I'd like to know (perhaps another thread is required) is how long of constant screen usage can you get, until your battery is dead as a doornail? Sure, I realise that constantly browsing the web, is different to playing a 3D game, but it would be nice for people to submit some results anyway. As soon as I get the chance, I will disable screen sleep and see how long it takes to drain from a full charge. I think that would be interesting. In other words, is the screen solely responsible for bad battery life? And how much do the other components affect battery life as well? I've heard people blaming a Tegra 3 driver bug for example, saying the CPU is to blame for bad battery life. Things might become a little clearer when more people submit results.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
yes you are right...displays are the battery suckers. sure they are apps were you can test that..have you had a look on the market? not sure if it is a bug of the drivers. I do not think it is the cpu to blame..it is just one of them things. screen for me is the main reason..plain and simple..we just got to live with it
[HTC One X] Ripley:
Ok, here is my screentime battery test running firmware 1.28, browsing only, no games, over wifi.

[HTC One X] Sipheren:
The screen really does kill it fast.

Would it be something that they can improve with Firmware updates or is it just the way it is?
[HTC One X] forumhookersdotcom:
With low brightness you can get more than 5 hours of on screen time without any app too.
