[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rahul.raj:
Plz do not give up!!

I have also been waiting for this ever since I lost the feature after moving from Froyo to GB. :crying: It was a wonderful feature which eradicated the need for keeping a pen and paper ready for long office conference calls, specially when on the road. I was using some automatic recording script with customizable file naming convention and was in bliss! :D

In terms of legality, please let's keep that out of the equation as already pointed out with the camera shutter analogy. :silly:

The way I saw it, the legality thing was brought into picture by the MIUI 'porting' teams after the Froyo -> GB upgrade and instead of trying to 'fix' it, the questionable legality argument got presented.

Frankly, since the hardware supports it, it is only a question of finding and tweaking the correct sources. I do not have access to a compiler at the moment, but if someone needs help with code-reading/ review, please continue posting here or on pastebin. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] agentdark45:
+1 this would be awesome!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ElForo:
2 way call recording is very important for me. Still using Darky 9.5 (Froyo) because of that, but I would like to try a GB or ICS ROM if a patch was available.

Put the bootanimation.zip in /system/media and flash the rom!

Stupid question

I'm rockin the sgh-i957 with Danorom which is brilliant. Is there a simple way to do this? I can't seem to get the images to flash but can I just say copy someones samsungboot.qmg file(s)? Can you upload those?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Themes and Apps] trancemaster261:
I would also like to know if a custom boot animation would be possible on 4.0.4, and if there is a way to just edit the qmg files.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Themes and Apps] zittergie:
weird

Hi safariking,

I made a copy of the original cm10 bootanimation.zip and then replaced it with the ubuntu one from the first page, and everything worked as expected.

So I tried a second one (sony S) and all I got was the original android letters lighting up instead of the bootanimation. Also tried the JB one without success. So I copied the original bootanimation.zip from CM10 back, but the bootanimation stayed the android letters.

What am I doing wrong?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Themes and Apps] XCMDOS:
Hey , thanks for upload (im late)

Hmmm , i was searching for nexus boot animation , where can i got it please :):):)

I had my Evo 3D flashed to pageplus last week, I noticed all these new ICS roms with everything working. If I flash one of the ICS roms(or any other rom for that matter) will I have to have my phone reflashed to pageplus or is there someway to backup all the current pageplus settings myself and then when I flash the rom just go in and restore them? Please help. I am rooted HTC unlock method with HBOOT 1.50

i can't get WIFI or bluetooth to work in GBX0 or FRX0. builds.

it turns on but then it keeps scanning without a result, even when i put in a network by hand it keeps saying out of reach.

wifi and bluetooth works fine in winmo energy rom.

does anyone know how to solve this?
[Touch HD General] mfsr98:
there might be a rom problem. when you press haret does the phone vibrate twice?

did you format sd card, fat32?
[Touch HD General] Deleted member 4258086:
yes , phone vibrates twice and i did a full format of the sd card.

could it be the winmo energy rom cause it doesn't matter witch android i take, non of them works!
[Touch HD General] Deleted member 4258086:
tried the same sd in my daughters blackstone running original winmo rom ---running like a charm.

i'm gonna flash another rom to see if it makes a difference.
[Touch HD General] mfsr98:
ok then :p
[Touch HD General] Deleted member 4258086:

All the best! Good luck!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] laill:
Man, your work is going to shock us.

You know, I pretty agree that some tweaks are not really for our es209ra.

I always experienced some strange behaviors when compared to stock-based rom.

cheers,

L
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] CosmicDan:
Haha, thanks... I just have a lot of free time and love the X10, time I put some skills in and give back to XDA for helping me out so much over the years.... feel free to test it everyone, I may come off as a "noob hater" with that big red text LOL but I am a nice guy.... just please understand that if you are too lazy to read or don't know how to use MIUI properly or what BETA means, be careful and don't insult me.... any help/testing is greatly appreciated...

EDIT: BTW for those wondering.... I have been using this for the past few days, fine tuning this release... I have a crap load of apps installed like I usually do, and it's responsive. Playing music in MIUI Player (with EQ and Fade disabled of course) while getting a call is fast, texting works, GPS locking is well, 3D gaming is decent, multitasking is the best I've ever seen... but I have gotten some strange "lags" after installing some fresh apps, a reboot fixed it. I think my swapping settings are a bit too hardcore. For the experienced out there, check/play my values in sysctl.conf if you like. Or just disable Compcache completely, but if you do that the Dialer and/or Messaging might be unresponsive.... I have not had a chance to test such things....
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] empax:
X10 is alive :) Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Tony84:
but is it ics?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] CosmicDan:
Fair question I guess... no. CM9-FXP is nowhere near this stable yet, this is CM7-FXP119. [Updated title]
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] laill:
I would try this on Monday cuz I have to work on Saturday and Sunday, 12 hours each day(yeah yeah, it is mother's day)

(Other MIUI roms give strange behaviors )

Til now, all I have learnt is to do some minor mods on build.prop, gps.conf, vdd levels and swap2sys partition

I think this rom will be very smooth with swap2sys with swapiness zero (in fact, I am using this for stock based rom, it works well also

cheers,

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] klacker:
The rom is beautiful and so far nothing has gone wrong :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pathaniya:
Is it for locked boot loader or unlocked ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kinglargo:
You had me at hello... lol

No really, you had me at "They are full of tweaks that are not for our device, some tweaks just don't make sense and/or cancel each other out, and they have bundled apps and mods which create more possibilities to go wrong."

I'm going to try your rom and report later (3-4 days)

thank you!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] milad407:
i'm 99% percent sure it's unlocked...

Many devs don't make roms for locked anymore since it was bad compared to unlocked... :)

[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
Hello,

i just updated my sony s with condi's instructions and his AIO tool to ICS 4.0.3.

I followed all the steps in his video. I created the custom-rom and flashed it... everything went fine. ICS is running smoothly but the only downside is, that my tablet seems to NOT be rootet!

I don't have a Superuser app and ad free and titanium backup are telling me that i'm not rootet...

how is that possible? is there anyway to flash my "pre-rootet" rom again?
[Sony Tablet S] Mahaco:
Im affraid, that you just made your tab unrootable, i dunno if you kernel is changed now maby the AiO tool made some changes, if so, just try to root your tab with the tool,

But if you have a blocked kernel, then its not possible.
[Sony Tablet S] condi:
check AiO thread, FAQ section, point no.5.

It might help you.

br

condi
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
thx for the hint condi but since i used AIO 2.9 the path check should be included... the strange thing is i don't have /system/bin/tempsu binary.

i don't know why.. but it seems my tablet is not rooted.. hm, so basically i ended the same as those people who updated OTA???

My kernel build is 2.6.39.4 integ-build@build9 #1...

is wiping my device helping? or should i try to flash the custom rom again? is that even possible now?
[Sony Tablet S] condi:
First just try wipe. If it will still gonna be without root,

then run adb shell and type:

getprop | grep incremental
getprop | grep sku

and post here your values, gonna give you proper fw for downgrade,

then you could reflash prerooted ICS :)

br

condi
[Sony Tablet S] rfreeman:
Hi Condi, I am in the same situation, I want to try to downgrade, to get preroot and try again with ICS.

I did what you said in ADB shell, but I am getting this: (please help)

[*]*************[*]

[*] ADB Shell [*]

[*]*************[*]

Type EXIT to get out of shell ;)

shell@android:/ $ getprop | grep incremental

getprop | grep incremental

/system/bin/sh: grep: not found

127|shell@android:/ $ getprop | grep sku

getprop | grep sku

/system/bin/sh: grep: not found

127|shell@android:/ $
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
i get the same results!

@rfreeman: did u install the update OTA or did u create a pre-rootet rom using the AIO tool?

i believe that somehow ( i don't know how because every step had the same results as in the video) the us firmware didn't get rootet during the process... i've got all the files: decrypted_update, custom_update_signed... but i like i said... maybe all we did is decrypt, do nothing and then sign it again... the question remains! why!!! :).

is it still usefull to try and see if wyping helps?
[Sony Tablet S] rfreeman:
I all ready wipe, without success...
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
thx for letting me know! saves me the trouble :)... but i guess i have to do it anyway because ics runs really buggy...

u didn't tell us, if u used a pre-rooted rom or ota update?
[Sony Tablet S] rfreeman:
I followed the procedure, using AIO tool, I decryted, root, sign and flash. It goes well but without root.
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
Hm... so u did exactly the same as I did.... condi, maybe something involuntarily changed while u updated to 2.9? Anyway... anyone a solution... maybe we can still flash? Thx in advance.
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Ok. As adb shell did not work for you. Grab the "sku" and "incremental" values from /system/build.prop. Use program such as root explorer (still works without root)

Hopefully the backdoor was still applied (decreasing the incremental)

Post results here so Condi can find correct 3.2.1 to flash so then you can ICS again.
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
thx for the tip!

incremental= 120410002

there is no sku value :( ... i guess that's bad news?
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Ro.sony.sku.base=nbx03- etc etc

Judging by the incremental it looks like you won't be able to, but wait for confirmation. Sorry if it is bad news..... my tab is currently unrootable with 3.2.1 build 10.... so same boat lol
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
nope. Not there...

Well, so I might not be able to root, but the question remains. Why? How did that happen?

Has anyone else have the same problem besides rfreeman and me? If so, this might be a general problem.

If we could find an answer, maybe others won't end up the same!
[Sony Tablet S] jgzhang:
Exactly the same problem, after upgrade from a rooted tabletS. The binary comparision showes the system.img before and after the pre-root patch were identical. I won't flash it if I had checked.
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
Hopefully Condi will read this and implement some kind of check to see if the created custom-rom is different from the original rom... this could be a way to prevent this "bug".
[Sony Tablet S] condi:
added some checks in v3.0.

i've flashed my tab several times, dont know how it could give untouched system.img..

but now it checks filesize ;)

tell me whats the state of your device?

type:

adb shell "getprop" > props.txt

and attach file here :)

br

condi
[Sony Tablet S] lulash:
The important values like incremental (120410002) and sku_base (nbx03_001) are the same as jgzhang's... i've got some additional entries though... the one that sounds most interesting is:

[ro.com.google.mcc_fallback]: [262]

I also have different [ro.sony.sku.detailed] & [ro.sony.sku.version] values...

thx for your effort everyone!

I'm in a simaler predicament with getting a usb headphone adapter to work, android lacks many of the usb drivers needed.

You'd have to make it yourself most likely, but it's a relatively simple cut and paste from the linux drivers.

Run a lsusb in terminal emulator before and after you plug in the device, and get the id number, then look for linux drivers to port.

Is it normal for cell standby and phone idle to take up so much of the battery?

Yes. Cell takes up a lot of battery, especially if you are getting a low signal

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vorloc:
I don't think a WiFi router, which you have, will can act as a WiFi receptor, So that is quite hopeless.. But you can still use USB tethering to just connect your phone via USB and get connected to the Internet.

go to Settings>More...>Tethering & portable hotspot> USB tethering

It works exactly like a Bluetooth adapter,insert the bluetooth adapter into usb port,and you have bluetooth on your pc.
