[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadshawki:
Well, it would've been easier for the kids to watch the stuff on picasa. Anyway, may be if we flash a ROM or something.

But what if we put the gallery app from another ICS ROM, will this work?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonstedman:
same here

I have the same issue with my samsung galaxy tablet 2 10.1.

if you find a solution could you please let me know?

There must be lot's of other gallery apps that may resolve the issue but I cannot find one that will act like the ICS stock version.

Any help on a fix for this issue would be much appreciated.

I tried many things to get this to work and finally got a 3rd party gallery. But after the 4.0.4 update it just started working. I don't know if it was because of some of the things I tried, but in 4.0.4 it is at least possible.

If you have 4.0.4 try going into accounts and making sure that sync Picasa Web albums (or whatever) is checked and force a sync. You might also go clear Gallery's data and restart it if that doesn't help.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Zadeis:
OK I am trying to diagnose problems with my tablet and I would like to know something in particular. How much Android OS is using under battery stats.

Let me know in the poll in this thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] nguyen47:
Sometime it reaches 30 40
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Zadeis:
Well so far there seems to be consistent usage to Android OS so I guess I have been fretting about nothing. Though my battery use still seems high...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbzgod:
So Samsung Canada has officially announced that all the Canadian versions are going to be just like the Japanese one with the Snapdragon CPU for LTE support and 2GBs of ram, at a glance it appears that everything else under the hood should be the same more or less (obviously dont know for sure but just guessing) so What Im wondering is will the firmwares be the same for these 2GB varients or will there be enough differences that the modding and development area of the S III will differ to the point that anything made for the GT-I9300 wont work on these models?

Naturally the assumed answer would be no, such as the custom SGS2's that have 4 touch buttons and no home key compared to the international model, however all S III's appear to all be the same layout of 2 touch 1 home and same phone design ect, just different CPU and amount of ram inside the phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenkaishy:
+1 for this question, this will make if I buy or not the phone :p
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FISKER_Q:
The amount of memory is the least of your concerns.

The device is using a completely different chipset, it uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4, so no, firmware/roms made for the GT-i9300 will not work on the version you're getting, not even the HSPA+ one.

But i'm sure there will still be a lot of support for doing custom roms on your versions as well :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] accordex:
This has always been the case... anything for the "I " will have to be ported to work on north American variants... there will be different modems/kernels ...international will get updates first and certain things will be pulled to build roms for us.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
Both of them are based on different soc. international version is using the exynos chipset

and the lte version is using the qualcom chipset. so the roms would be totally different
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chainfire:
What I think he's asking is whether or not the Canadian and Japanese (for example) versions will be firmware-compatible, as they both will get the alternate SoC and memory, not the international version...

It's a question without an answer. All we can do is guess, and not educated ones. We'll have to wait and see.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbzgod:
Actually its both, I guess I should of worded this better with more details lol.

But my main thoughts were dev work on the international GT-I9300 and mods/addons etc working on the LTE 2GB varient (since at a glance it looks like they are the same phones but with different CPU/Ram), also as well Japanese/Canada/USA versions working together since it looks like all 3 countrys are getting the same model phones with the same hardware (different model numbers though because of branding purposes but same hardware inside the phone).

Im not looking for custom roms though my main thoughts are small addons that you generally see in the themes and apps section and the huge following that you see with the S II and constant checking and usage with new firmwares for the shake of improving everyones device, and most important of all CF-Root for the device. My concern is that most of the dev's will be putting the work and effort into the international model and not the other ones so I will be SOL unless I get the international model (which is why the question in the first place), but heres the other thing that bothers me with that...

It feels like its not worth the upgrade (hardware wise), everything is the same except 200MHz faster CPU with a couple extra cores that most apps probably wont take advantage of for some time to come, and a 720p HD screen which is nice but not really necessary. The S III feels more like a software upgrade rather then a hardware one (amazing software and improvements Samsung has done for the device over the S II for sure), but to me it feels like its not worth it unless your getting all the hardware improved upon aswell, like were just re-buying our S II's because its "shinier" with new and improved software lol.

Doesn't anyone else feel that the S III should of been not only a CPU upgrade but double the ram, improved MP's on the front and back camera's etc etc?

So with all that in mind atleast for me it feels like if im to get the upgrade it should actually be a nice upgrade (hardware wise) you know what I mean?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chainfire:
Well, our opinions appear to differ a lot on the subject, but I have no interest on elaborating on them yet again.

However, for rooting, for the SGS3 something like CF-Root is not needed due to the separate kernel and recovery partitions. You flash a modified recovery (once) then root through that.

Future firmwares can then be flashed with Mobile ODIN (which can root during flash), or (again) through the recovery, if you didn't overwrite it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FISKER_Q:
Ah yes i see, i thought he meant compared to the International GT-I9300 model :)

Sorry to the OP, i haven't a clue about that.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbzgod:
No I ment both. Compared to the international model and as well between the same alternate ones that are the same.

Pretty much don't want to get the 2GB ram model if most of the development is only for the international model, however getting the normal one over my S II feels like I'm practically getting a small upgrade if the ram isn't getting doubled among other things.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
I used galaxy toolkit install touch screen CWM, then log into CWM install su.zip and reboot system, next time I log in CWM, i see a X mark on android robot stomach. then I tried to flash CWM again using galaxy toolkit, now i get error code on fastboot 'FASTBOOT STATUS- download 0058d000'.

what went wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Not sure.

Here are some suggestions:

1) Lose the toolkit and flash things manually -- it is easier to see where things go wrong if you do things step-by-step yourself.

2) Don't use the touch version of CWM -- I've seen issue with it.

I'll gladly guide you though doing it manually if you cannot figure it out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Use my sig bud.

As far as the error, I'm not sure what that means.

Doesn't seem like a fastboot error...but rather something the toolkit is displaying.

Possibly missing the .img? Try redownloading it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
no, it on the phone, right on bottom of bootloader screen, not in toolkit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
this is why people shouldn't use toolkits.

try to remove battery for a few mins, plug it back it, 3bc to bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
is teamwork win recovery more reliable than clockwork?

i used galaxy toolket 7 to flash teamwork recovery, i can use it immediately but after reboot, it is gone, display a android robot with ! mark on the head. same with clockwork.

what is command for manually flash recovery? team win and clockwork.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
It is disappearing because there are two files placed on your system by an OTA update. You need to delete the two files and re-flash your custom recovery. The two files are:

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
Delete those will cause any problems? or not able to receive future OTA updates?

how to find thos files?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Nope. No problems. Those files don't exist on a stock rom. Ota updates place them there.

Use a file explorer with root access, or via adb.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
ok. it worked. Thanks.

I also found error code in fastboot is caused by PdaNet, I installed it from rooting guide. I closed the running pdanet then error code went away. don't know why.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
This is why I always recommend to uninstall all old drivers and use 1wayjonny's naked drivers. The are far better than anything else, and you don't have to install third-party software like pdanet just to get drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beatsleigher:
Well, here's a suggestion;

Try to stay calm, and not to freak, when freaking, people temt to make things worse, by flashing unneccessary stuff, downloadig programs, etc. ...

Try to flash things manually, first bootloader, radio, boot, system then recovery.

If you still get the error code, try using Odin mode.

Worse-case scenario: You maybe need to JTAG it. But that is only in WORST-CASE!

You could also contact Google, see if they know what to do (Which they probably would, because they wrote the program/s)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
I downloaded 1wayjonny's naked drivers. how to install it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
The driver has to install twice - once when your device is booted normally, and once when your device is booted in fastboot mode. But before you install, you have to remove the previous drivers, both in fastboot mode and in normal boot.

Uninstall all old drivers

1) Open Device Manager on you PC;

2) Plug your phone to your PC (when your device is booted normally);

3) Make sure that (on your phone), that you have USB Debugging enabled in Settings;

4) Uninstall anything you see in device manager related to Android, by right-clicking on whatever the item is and clicking uninstall;

5) Unplug your phone;

6) Reboot your phone in fastboot mode;

7) Plug your phone to your PC;

8) Uninstall anything you see in device manager related to Android, by right-clicking on whatever the item is and clicking uninstall;

9) Reboot your PC;

Install 1wayjonny's drivers

1) Open Device Manager on you PC;

2) Plug your phone to your PC (when your device is booted normally);

3) Make sure that (on your phone), that you have USB Debugging enabled in Settings;

4) You may see a prompt to install drivers. If you do, select manual install (or whatever the option is called) and navigate to the folder where you extracted 1wayjonny's drivers and select the file (can't remember the name off-hand);

5) Unplug your phone;

6) Reboot your phone in fastboot mode;

7) Plug your phone to your PC;

8) You may see a prompt to install drivers. If you do, select manual install (or whatever the option is called) and navigate to the folder where you extracted 1wayjonny's drivers and select the file (can't remember the name off-hand);

9) Reboot your PC.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:

This was my first flashable zip and I forget to copy one file (update_script) to the zip... :rolleyes:

The flashable zip have now included the Digital Clock and the PhotoWall live wallpaper...

Edit: Yes, working properly now. However, this launcher doesn't recognize my sdcard apps. I have to reboot phone a couple of times for it to recognize them. I've a couple of shortcuts for some apps on the main screen also, and despite I can open them, they don't have name and the icon is the default one...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] spirosbond:
I think this mod is compatible only with ICS, right? I think you should make it clear at the description :)

If so, is it ok to share a link to this thread to the general section?

Cheers and thanks

EDIT: The live wallpaper is AWESOME!!! BUT, I cannot choose gallery... does that work for you :(?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
I had this problem also, but not with this launcher. That happens sometimes when I do changes in the SD Card when I connect it to my laptop.

That should be related with the apps that are in the sd card folder: ".android_secure"...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
Yes, it's compatible with ICS only.

I have the same problem with the wallpaper.

The only thing that I did was collect some apps, TrouchWiz framework from SGS3 and put them into a flashable zip to work with my u8800. :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
Added a new version (1.4).

This version have more apps and some of them must be in /system/app, so the space required is larger.

I removed some apps that were in Aurora like: Video Editing, Exhange, Email... to have the necessary space for SGS3 apps.

Added more screenshots.

Thank's, I'll try it, but first need to install different (5.0.2.7) CWM. Anyway, did you test new betas from smando (1.6b2,1.6b3). There are Uxsettings included and it works, but very buggy for me. I found 1.6b2 works better than b3 on our U8800.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
Yes, I've tested but they are not good for daily use.

The only thing that I want is the possibility to change the dpi that is available in those versions.

I think digital clock will not be displayed correctly in the version that is included in the mod! But that app is useless so...

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
I have some problems with your new Touchwiz 4.1.0.1, after installing it there is no status bar visible at all. So maybe i do something wrong, but after second install, same thing happen. No idea, what it could be?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
Wich CWM version are you using?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
Originali I use 5.5.0.4, but befor installing your mod, I replace CWM with 5.0.2.7, taken from you link. I follow you installation guide, so it should be OK, but is not. Even try with installing my own status bar icons, but no status bar again. With Power button (long press) I can call Phone options, but If I try to make screenshot, nothig happens, so I can't show it to you.

All other things work fine.

Are you using aurora 4.1?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] A.C.A.B.:
this SGS3 Touchwiz shoes number os missing calls and messages in the respective icons or in lockscreen?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
No and no.

You can see the notifications in the status bar, like you do in Aurora.

The Lockscreen is the default from aurora ics.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] A.C.A.B.:
its a shame.

I was trying to go around the MMS with data off issue.

In these roms when we have data off and we receive and MMS and receive a text message with the information that we have an mms. THis normally shows a notification in the respective icon of messages.

Without this notification alert, in aurora the message is in message folder but no notification at all, anywhere.....
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
You have the LED notifications, the status bas notifications and the sound notifications!!! Isn't it enought? :silly:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] A.C.A.B.:
off course not.

soem times I don't hear the phone ringing or when I pick it up I don't see if theres the flashing notification or not.

It would be great to see a number on top of respective icon (calls / messages)

I know that by installing EX launchers we can then install an add on that will do the trick but I like Aurora and SGS3 looks.....

also, just now in CWM and installing your touchwiz, while flashing there was a line saying that only with CWM 5.0.2.7 and in the end it gave error installing a lot of xxxx.apk and restored the original ones.

MetaMorph does the same, but is more slow and not so easy to use.

Sorry, my mistake. I upgrade dzo's v4.1 with my status bar mod, which was made from SystemUI.apk from v4.0. It works fine with dzo's v4.1 too. Then I upgrade with your Touchwiz and then ony fresh install of v4.1 helped recover my no status bar problem. Every thing is fine now and thank's for Touchwiz upgrade - very nice!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
The SystemUI.apk is the only file that depends on Aurora version. I'm changing the clock and the text color, adding the "%" to the battery and the battery percentage images in the .xmls.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
OK, my problem without status bar was caused by my status bar mod with transparent background. I moded SystemUI from system/app/systemUI.apk, but ended with the same result - no status bar. Any idea what is going wrong here? In previous version I never had such a problem, even with your Touchwiz for u8800 v4.0.0.2, everything works fine (transparent statusbar background).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
You should not apply other SystemUI.apk mods before or after applying my MOD.

The 4.0.0.2 didn't had any change in the xmls, it only had changes in the images. The 4.0.0.3 and 4.1.0.1 have changes in the images and in the XML files, so you can only apply mods that change the images or you'll have problems.

You can try to decompile the SystemUI.apk after applying my mod and then do the changes in the xmls and recompile it again... (I don't know if it will work)
