How to crack Rotation app?

If you have 1 day remaining, get into settings->applications->manage applications->find "Rotate"-> click "clear data"

Later run app and set lockscreen rotation "Landscape" or "Forced auto" :D

[Miscellaneous Android Development] GeneValgene:
thanks for all the work dawkon13. gingermodspeed is my favorite so far, and has given me more mileage from my ideapad a1.

just out of curiosity, do you know if there is any way to enable a mouse pointer/cursor on gingermodspeed? or is that option only available on ICS?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hdaackda:
How do I install CWN first?? Am on stock

Do i rename the file to update.zip and then "update from recovery"??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dawkon13:
rename cwm......zip to update.zip->enter into recovery mode-> auto installation(finish-power off tablet)-> enter into recovery mode(you have CWM)-> install ROM :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] geoponer:
After a long and painful process, I finally managed to install GingerModSpeed again, after quite a long time. For some strange reason, it was the only ROM that I could install when reverting back from 4.0.4 (which has this awful battery issue).

I have to admit that I like the user interface (these coloured buttons) and it seems really responsive, maybe faster than the ones by milaq. However, the fact

a) that Google apps were not installed (they had to be flashed seperately)

b) the initial screen starts at 240dpi (if I recall well; I immediately changed that to 180dpi) caused some additional delays in setting up the tablet for first use.

c) the awful Lenovo launcher was there (no need to use that; even the Lenovo store is not active anymore, so no more custom apps for us)

caused some additional delays in setting up the device. Apart from that, the ROM looks really nice and I have already started "building" on it (e.g. settings, apps etc.) in order to bring it closer to my taste.

Thank you for the really detailed instructions (which made flashing this ROM a piece of cake) and of course for taking the time to work on this really nice ROM! I do not know if you will keep supporting/updating it but it surely has its place in the Lenovo ROM ecosystem!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dustman317:
Hi !

I have a biiiiiig problem: my external and internal sd cards are unmounted.

I'll telling you how. On this morning i wanted to put a movie on my external sd card because my internal sd was full (8gb is a little bit short ^^). I'm on CM9 with 26/05/2012 build and i know that when we try to write on the external sd it freeze the phone. But i reminded this after the drama (T-T). I thought that after a reboot, all this will be resolved but after reboot the cards wasn't been remounted.

I'm supplying you to give me any solution !!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dustman317:
Problem resolved i reinstall cm9 but the 29/05 version with all wipes

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebonydad:
I was quick to root and flash my wifes tablet before I found out that flash is not working in the browser on AOKP. I did not back up the ROM, so now I had to give her my working tablet to make her happy.

Is there a place I can find a stock T-Mobile Android 3.2 ROM? I would like to roll mine back until Flash is fixed on ICS.

Thanks!

(PS - I did search on XDA and the Internet, no luck.)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MapleSyrup:
Flash works in ICS (I don't use AOKP, but flash should work).

Anyway, go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ and search for SGH-T859, you'll find the firmware.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FatimaRizwan:
Hello Everyone,

I have a few questions I hope I will get satisfied here.

I have recently updated my GT-N7000 to ICS via this website.

android.gs/ update-samsung-galaxy-note-n7000-to-official-ice-cream-sandwich-lpy-with-mobile-odin/

I followed the PC odin method and in a few minutes I got ICS. It also said that via this method your phone would not be rooted and you will be able to get the official updates through kies in future.

Yesterday I saw on the internet that ICS for Poland is out and now I want the official ICS version via the KIES.

Now whenever I try connecting through kies I get the message that "Your Software doesn't support software upgrading via Kies"

What is the problem? How to solve it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvsandeepreddy:
Download the poland version from sammobile.com or dr ketans thread and flash using pc odin
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opsakas:
It would be better to download Polish 2.3.6, after THAT factory reset, and then upgrade into 4 through Kies.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djolegru:
when would i get official isc in serbija ? does somebody know?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v0id_walker:
The problem is the incopatible csc file... Try the solution provided as first reaction on your post. Either you dowload the old firmware, then you flash it over your current firmware and after this, the kies update should work again.

Or you simply download abd flash the pl. Update directly and kies will work for the future releases in poland.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyReb67:
Great job irritating forum members by hijacking another thread as your very first post... I am sure you will get tons of answers. Maybe read a bit before asking questions - there IS a dedicated ICS info thread...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FatimaRizwan:
Well Now I am having problem finding the firmware for my phone when I do this

Dial *#06# that will show hour emei. Write it down, then dial *#272*yourimeinumberhere# that will show your csc, you can change it here, it will wipe your data thought. I get XEO as my sales code.

*#1234# gives me

PDA: N7000XXLPY

PHONE: N7000XXLPT

CSC: N7000OXALPY

Build Info: Friday May 4

Also KIES says

Current firmware version: PDA:LPY / PHONE:LPT / CSC:LPY(XEO)

What to do now ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belfia:
Did you flash a polish gingerbread or which version did you flash?

Cause now it seems you have ICS open germany version.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FatimaRizwan:
My Sales Code is XEO previously I have 2.3.6 and then I flashed two days ago this

ICS via PC odin. :(

Now what to do ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belfia:
Well I dont know if there is a polish version of ICS out yet. But you can check that on

www.sammobile.com

But it shouldnt be any different than the rom you currently have. Except for maybe languagesupport.

So if I were in your situation I wouldnt do anything.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naciniak:
There is a simple solution for that. I did it for exactly the same reason as you. Just download official gingerbread ROM for your country /Poland/ and flash it via Odin. If Kies is still unable to use updates, you will have to find right CSC for your phone. There is allways more than one for each country.. because of different carriers etc. Someone described how to do it in previous comments.

If you get lucky, Kies will be finally satisfied with your phone and will offer you official update /if it is really available/

I have reverted back to the Slovak Gingerbread ROM because I had some issues with German ICS. Now I just have to wait for official update for my country..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belfia:
I just read in development section that official ICS LPY is out for poland also. You can allways flash that through Odin.

[HTC One X] eadred:
Since I have started to disable some applications, I have noticed a significant improvement regarding battery life (+45min screen on time). But I have also experienced that disabling certain applications may cause system error, or even increase battery drain.

I was wondering if someone had an exhaustive list of apps that are safe to disable?

So far I have disabled those with success:

- 7digital

- car

- face unlock

- facebook

- facebook for htc sense

- facebookapiengine

- flickr

- flickrapiengine

- friend stream

- friend stream

- friend stream widget

- google+

- htc account

- htc dock screen

- htc sense input (I use a replacement)

- mail (I use kaiten)

- mail widget

- movie editor

- news & weather

- notes

- notes

- notes provider

- pdf viewer

- picasa web albums

- ringtone trimmer

- soundhound

- stock widget

- stocks

- stocks

- talk

- talkback

- teeter

- trends widget

- trimit

- tunein radio

- twitter

- twitter widget

- twitterapiengine

- weather

- weather widget

Disabled applications that I experienced to crash phone upon restart:

- htc weather sync provider

Disabled applications that I experienced to increase battery drain (subjectively - I might be wrong):

- dropbox

- dropbox for htc sense

- htc sense input

Has anyone further apps to suggest?

Note

: to disable an application:

go to 'Settings'

Apps

All

Press the application you want to disable

Disable

was about time for someone to do this. i didnt disable all of them just the once i was really sure about nothing could happen. now im gonna do the rest thanks.

great post bro, ill disable some of the useless apps and see if it reduces random stutter for me
[HTC One X] anubis1980:
Thanks for this list! will see if i notice any differences in battery life :)
[HTC One X] Johnny0906:
I've disabled pretty much everything except HTC sense and Google maps when I have disable google maps everything starts to act weird and freeze and stuff so I left that one alone I use titanium backup, I have also disabled some system stuff like NFC and widgets and languages that I never use and a lot of other stuff.

Was gonna make a list too but didn't have time :)
[HTC One X] eadred:
If you do find the time to selectively complete the list with your findings, please do. I would update the first post accordingly.
[HTC One X] DanRZ:
Excellent post, thanks ...

I also disabled lot of appz from first list.

Everything is OK til now. I just noticed that flickr still appear on task manager even if disabled. I tried force kill but it returns back later ... :confused:

It looks like it is not completely disabled ...
[HTC One X] eadred:
Yeah, I have also noticed this. Pdf viewer does the same. I wonder if there are further underlying services that need to be disabled in order for them to be truly gone.
[HTC One X] DanRZ:
Yes, i had the same idea, something like a "hard coded" use of these apps ...

It is also a very good way to disable all specific appz from branded phones :D

I disabled all SFR appz and they never get back and even disappear from appz menu or home page. :)
[HTC One X] Johnny0906:
Ok yeah sure no problem.

I might have time to do it tonight.

[HTC One X] Goku80:
great post and great reference. but for more apps to find out which are safe to disable just have a look at the rom cleaner thread in development. Patricss has a whole list of apps that he removes with his rom cleaner so maybe you can have a look there as well and add a few more if there are any missing.

here you go :http://www.androidrevolution.nl/Patrics83/ROM Cleaner and Addons/OneX/ROMCleaner/ROMCleaner_user.txt
[HTC One X] ozaghloul:
Some more crapware

A few more to add to your list:

- HTCSkydrive_GLRPlugin (F*ck Microsoft)

- SkyDrive for HTC Sense (Fu*k Microsoft)

- Trimit (useless)

- TripWidget (beyond useless)

- Trends Widget (safe to remove even if you use twitter)

- Tell HTC (I ain't telling them nothing)

- Transfer (You will never use it except maybe once when the phone is new)

- Show Me (crap)

[HTC One X] kazgor:
so what the point of freezing these apps, are they really all running and using up resources? eg Trends... yes it a widget you can put onto a homescreen, but if i dont is it zapping my memory/cpu.

also whats TAlKBack?
[HTC One X] Goku80:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.marvin.talkback&hl=en

and yes if you freeze or disable apps it clears a bit more of the memory ram and makes the phone a bit faster
[HTC One X] eadred:
Freezing unneeded apps improves a lot battery life. Many of those unwanted/unneeded applications run randomly in background using cpu/battery etc.

From my experience, I have seen an increase of 45min screen on time after freezing the list provided in first post, all other things remaining equal.
[HTC One X] Hoodeddeathman:
HtcBeatsNotify

I disable HtcBeatsNotify because the notification icon would bother me even if I did use the beats profile. However I don't and the icon still persists therefore I disable it.

Note this only disables the icon in the notification area, the profile can still be chosen within the music application.
[HTC One X] RBFesquire:
You add 'screen timeout' to list of apps not recommended to disable. Trying to restart your phone results in a boot loop, as I found out yesterday :/

Just a quick question....

I tried to disable Twitter using disable from settings/apps..

It vanishes from the list of apps totally...

If I decided I want it back or any other app I have decided to disable, how do I do it if it's not on my list of apps.. ???

Just thought I would find out before getting carried away !!

[HTC One X] C56X:
Thanks; that worked :)

In Settings > Accounts & sync, there is the green sync icon beside the Google and Mail options.

I use gmail. Like I said, I get notified twice each time there is an incoming email, and it is quite annoying :mad:

Which one do I disable and how?

I tried disabling Tell HTC. There were 2 options - Force stop and Disable. It didn't allow me to disable it and so I selected the Force stop option.

This does nothing to the app and when I go back to it, this time it shows both the options, but doesn't allow me to do anything!
[HTC One X] phonixloo:
I suppose one from gmail app and one from your mail setup. This is what I get before

[HTC One X] rjvrijn:
I'll ask you guys, why buying a 1.5 gig smartphone if disabling most of its "smart" functions? Just for 45 min extra screen on time?

I find the battery time of my hox great. Certainly when compared to my desire. I do a lot on social media with it and some gaming between. Still I reach 20 hours easily.

Still on stock (rooted) and no need to go custom. ;-)
[HTC One X] DanRZ:
Hello, just because those "smart" functions are just often "not so smart" ...

And disabling apps don't actually free phone memory but it free internal memory used to execute other apps and it helps "stabilizing" multitask for example ...
[HTC One X] wintermute000:
Yep I have turned off most of the stuff in that list.

And guess what, I still have exchange, gmail, whatsapp, RDIO, pocket, chrome, google contacts/maps, dropbox all ON. I guess its not as 'smart' as it coudl be lol

You can be lucky. I wouldnt reach 10 hours. May i ask which serial you have?
[HTC One X] v0 HaVoK 0v:
Before reading this I had disabled HTC sense input, and to be honest it increased my battery life by a lot. About and extra 2 hours screen time, so I don't think it increases drain.
[HTC One X] eadred:
Maybe it does increase your battery life by a few additional screen on minutes, but with absolute certainty not by 2 hours.
[HTC One X] Zlotin:
About Sense Input: It depends on, which alternative keyboard you are using. It can drain more or less, but the difference will be about max. 20 minutes of screen on time.

About dropbox: i don`t disable, i`ve deleted it. It can`t cause more drain, because it is not a system app, but a bloatware htc added (if you want to use gratis 25gb for two years you shouldn`t delete it though).

My expirience with disabling all the software: it doesn`t really make sense disabling all the apps from the list.

The most "draining" one is google maps, but if you use google services, you need it. You can disable it without troubles, only if You disable options "allow googloe services observe my location" in "locations" option.

Great thread, thanks to all who contribute!

I usually find it is good practice to freeze a bunch of apps and then observe for a few days to see if any problems occur (all this after a Nandroid backup). If everything seems OK I then uninstall (after a Titanium backup!)

I use Link2SD (you can download it for free from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buak.Link2SD&hl=en) to freeze apps.

I used to use this on my Desire to battle the meager storage available but I still find the management and sorting options nice enough to use (just to freeze apps) on the One X.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Suzook1:
I am willing to put up a $25 bounty (maybe others will join in) To a dev who can find a way to give us the ability to disable fast dormancy with ICS. The option is available on stock GB roms. Its in the modem so I imagine someone with skills can recode it into the ICS modem.

This is a MAJOR factor in increasing battery life and will do all of us on custom ICS roms good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dakleenupman:
Uh, not that I can really understand this still but wasn't it discussed in an earlier thread that users on AT & T should leave FD enabled? Maybe it'll help non AT & T members?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Suzook1:
based on the responses, no it should be disabled. I had it on my int note and it did wonders. Att users on stock GB report the same except for one. ATT does NOT have this option and I have verified it with an tier 2 engineer
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] porkenhimer:
Can you not use google and do a little reading? It took me less than 1 minute to find this. Type this code in with the Samsung dialer *#*#9900#*#*. Next time do a google search.

this will NOT work with a ICS custom rom. It is not there in the sysdump

Read the OP, option is not there on ICS modems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Suzook1:
Can we get this back on topic :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] porkenhimer:
Try this code *#0011# and if RCC State says IDLE then Fast Dormancy is disabled. I read that AT&T firmware has it disabled by default on the Note. Also if the code does not work go to system/build.prop and see if you have this line "ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=" if you do and it has a 0 its disabled if it has a 1 its enabled and you can edit any way you choose. If you don't have this line in your build prop add it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Suzook1:
Thanks for that. When I try that code I get a blank screen with no options. Sys build prop has no reference to fast dormancy. I will try to add it
