[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rfkrocktk:
A friend of mine wants to get a Kindle Fire for his son, on the condition that WiFi could be disabled on a semi-permanent basis. Turning off WiFi in the settings isn't good enough, so I was thinking that I could root the device and blacklist the driver. I'm coming from a Linux perspective and I'm not exactly sure on Android. Is there a way that I could do this without a custom ROM?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] snapper.fishes:
And I thought I have seen my fair share of strange requests.

Can't it be done on a hardware basis instead? Remove the connection between the motherboard and the antenna? Those things are usually removable.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rfkrocktk:
I suppose it could be done on a hardware level, but I'm a bit more comfortable banning something from the Linux kernel than ripping a WiFi card out of a board.

I recently flash Hashcode's ICS on my Kindle and as I was going through the market, I would assume that we'd be able to download HD version of apps like Cut the Rope and such, but we can't. Is there any specific reason as to why we cannot do that?

Mine is AMD Phenom X6 @3.5Ghz, 8GB DDR3 RAM @1666Mhz, AMD Radeon 6770. Fedora with Gnome3 is my host OS, but I often never touch the host OS. I usually work inside VMs, and I have Ubuntu 12.04, Windows 7 Enterprise, and Mac OS Server Snow Leopard set up and use Ubuntu for all my Android stuffs. I got two screens, so typically you'll see Windows 7 on the left and Ubuntu on the right.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Hmm how does Windows run in a VM box inside linux performance wise. Is it able to utilize the hardware efficiently? Or does it rely on a lot of emulation? If I up my RAM to compensate for the host and virtual system I kind of like that idea instead of Windows as host os
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Windows runs great in a VM! I have a separate physical hard drive dedicated to each VM, so there is no slowdown associated with multiple OSes trying to utilize one hard drive at the same time.

Most of the devices are enumerated in some way. I use the redhat VirtIO network and storage drivers, which does give the guest OSes direct access to the networking and storage hardware. Video works ok with 3D acceleration, though I have never attempted something like gaming inside a VM. USB devices can be passed through to the guests such that the guest can directly communicate with a USB device (such as my Android phone for adb or fastboot stuff)

Generally speaking, for waht I do (mostly just webpage design and Android hacking), VMs are the perfect solution. I set it up this way originally so that I could do my web development in Windows, and then test how the page renders on different browsers and different OSes. In the past year though I've switched to where I'm really using Ubuntu as my primary OS, and only falling back to Windows when I really need to for some reason. I really love the flexibility of being able to simultaneously run many OSes on a single machine. If only I had a third monitor, then I could have Linux, Mac OS and Windows all on their own dedicated screens, sharing one keyboard and mouse! Awesome sauce!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jcarlson51:
nope not troll. The rep i had was a supervisor. i work out of town as a paramedic and i'm gone two weeks at a time. i spent 45min on the phone with them because they were trying to see if they could just ship it to me at work. but when she called the warehouse to find out that when she told me about the issue with HTC.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ticklemepinks:
they aren't gonna release nationally and not ship pre-orders first, i'm not worried... once again the initial shipping date was the 15th before they chamged the words up so let the panic ensue tomorrow

Sprint didn't just receive all the evos 2 days before they're to ship, cmon, I'm not even saying this dummy on the phone didn't tell you that story. I have never gotten any real info from a sprint rep... They have about as much inside info as me. I know anyone on this forum knows more about these phones than them. They work off of scripts.... She probably just didn't want to help you, what a surprise, I'm sure no ine else has called this week to change an order...... Relax it will be there Wednesday worst case Thursday
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ticklemepinks:
i think you forgot to add the *NOT in there, all I'm saying is history shown that sprint reps or almost any other reps are clueless to what really going on, I was just in a sprint chat with a rep 2 days ago and he initially told me that there hasn't been a release date announced for the LTE yet... so I had to link him to the sprint press release, they know nothing most times, we most times know more than them. so i trust that we'll get it before the 18th
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Jabawockee:
I agree^^^^^ Sprint reps know nothing. I always know more about their phones and specs than they do. Its pretty sad but true. So I dont trust what they got say 100% of the time.

Hi, We are finally getting to the point where we can start to push out some new kernels for the Atrix 2 (sort of got the bootloader bypassed).

I am very computer knowledgeable, and I know a fair amount of c++ and java, but I still cannot find very many good online guides to getting into this stuff. I am very serious about learning, but we all have to start somewhere, so it would be great if someone could get me off in the right direction.

Mobile network not available

I bought a Star X18i in July, 2012. Android Version is 4.0.3, kernel version is 2.6.35.7

And I changed imei with this method;

For IMEI 1,

echo 'AT+EGMR=1,7,"123456789012345"' >/dev/pttycmd1

For IMEI 2,

echo 'AT+EGMR=1,10,"123456789012345"' >/dev/pttycmd1

imei changed, but mobile network is still turned off even though I have used a registered imei from another old phone. Same issue here :(
[General Questions and Answers] bulentcandan:
Problem solved. SIM1 and SIM2 are marked as opposite on the label under the battery.

The other problem is;

- Snapshot button does not work in Google Goggles and FXCamera applications.

- Drivea application sometimes does not display red and white lines.

I cleared data and cache, but I don't know how to figure out this issue.

Android version : 4.0.3

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7

[HTC One X] brentett:
This is a short guide with a few apps that can save a lot of battery life when used correctly. They will not drastically affect performance for most users.

Root is required for these.

First App - Juice Defender Ultimate (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.latedroid.ultimatejuice&hl=en)

There is a lot of talk about if this uses more battery than it saves. But from my experience it saves a lot of battery. It mainly does this by turning off data/wifi while the screen is off and schedules it to turn on for syncing. Sure, you could do this yourself, but why not automate it?

Settings for this go as follows.

STATUS TAB---advanced

CONTROLS---mobile data, enabled---wifi,enabled---autosync,ping---disable everything else

SCHEDULES---enabled---frequency,15m or 30m.---duration,30s---controls,default---night,enabled,whenever you go to sleep to when you wake up,---

TRIGGERS---battery,enabled---threshold,5%---charger,ac---screen,enabled---traffic enabled---threshold,normal,30s---location,enabled.

If I didn't list an option keep it on it's default setting.

Second App - SetCPU (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mhuang.overclocking&hl=en)

This is what we will use to keep the processor at the power it needs to be for certain situations.

PROFILES

Temp>40.C------1000max 51 min---priority 100 (this keeps the phone from overheating and damaging the battery)

Screen off-------340 max 51 min---priority 95 (saves battery while screen is not on)

Charging--------1500 max 51 min--priority 90

Battery<10%----1000 max 51 min--priority 51

Battery<31%----1200 max 51 min--priority 46

Battery<51%----1400 max 51 min--priority 41

Battery<101%---1500 max 51 min--priority 31

Third App - CoreControl (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1652136)

This app while allow you to turn off cores of your processor.

Set this to use only 2 cores. This will save a good deal of battery, the only time you really need 4 core is for tegra gaming. You can just set it back to 4 if you plan on doing a lot of gaming.

Other tips:

Use a tweak such as the one in leedroid tweaks to lower autobrightness levels. This will save a noticeable amount of battery.
[HTC One X] DarkDvr:
Tegra 3 does that automatically.
[HTC One X] pewpewbangbang:
Yea but it still actives more than 2 cores when doing general tasks sometimes, it's more of a guarantee it won't ever cross 2 by using the app, or editing the tegra_hotplug file itself.
[HTC One X] brentett:
Yes it doesn't use all 4 cores all the time, but occasionally it will use more cores than it needs to so to get around that you force it to only use 2.
[HTC One X] DarkDvr:
And you think that "occasional" usage of 2 more cores will drain the battery significantly enough to make this change?

I doubt it, but nice to have options.
[HTC One X] brentett:
It may not save tons of battery, but every little bit adds up and it's worth doing because it doesn't affect performance for many people. You could also play games using only 2 cores which would also save battery, versus using all 4 cores.
[HTC One X] maxld:
So it's like buying a car with v8 and then run it on 4 cylinders because it has too big fuel consumption. To be honest I don't get it (no offence)
[HTC One X] brentett:
Well its to save battery, and it's exactly like your analogy to fuel consumption. You sacrifice some potential, most likely never used performance for more battery life. How many people with a v8 race it on an open track everyday full-throttle? But how many people use their v8 to commute to work? There's are other reasons people may have bought this phone then to run it at its max performance all the time. I didn't buy this phone with the intent of playing tegra 3 games 8 hours a day. I liked the build quality, the camera, the software in addition to its processing power. Obviously if you want to use all the performance your phone has to offer then disregard battery saving options, I just know there are some people that would rather have more battery life.
[HTC One X] treebill:
I agree I've tested locking it 2 cores vs 4 and there is not enough battery improvement to even consider it and as for juice defender I can do that using power options widget or the sense quick toggles removing the need of that app saving more power.

And set CPU still allows for your clock speed to go over max set.
[HTC One X] maxld:
I have to say that maybe you have a point here. Some people will be surely interested in some more battery juice.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
not a great believer myself regarding juice defender or any other similar apps..but kinda changed my mind regarding them few days ago and have seen some considerable difference..i know with the way android is now you can set them all yourself and i fell for the hype and got juice defender ultimate....but so far not complaining...time will tell

thanks OP anyway

I am on stock XWLP8 ROM and can resize the stock EMail widget.

Try to remove the widget.

Use an empty homescreen and place a new EMail widget on it.

When on this homescreen, press menu button and select "Edit".

Then long press/hold the widget (for about 3 seconds) without moving the finger.

If the resizing borders are not displayed, try to move the widget to another position on the homescreen and re-try the long press/hold of the widget again.
