Thanks, it seems that this Motorola one is not being sold so widely, so i will go for the Sony Ericsson! No serious competition out there...

I wonder if carriers are "encouraging" phone makers to not include FM radios that end users will have to stream radio stations... which of course means more data usage and more money the carriers can charge.

So I learned how to enable wifi hot spot, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=27000171, thank you Matt.

Is there a document/list that gives other useful sql edits?
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
I posted this a while back: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1633466. Not sure if it's useful, but I use it (that and the wifi tether hack are included in Romulus already - but those I did with notepad++ on a different file to get them in the rom, not sqlite).

There are probably other little hack tricks with sql, but not that I know of.. you could always carefully experiment a little in that settings.db... or check out other databases
[HTC Incredible S] celaw:
Hi, anyone face issue with power button where it got no response at all when click on it? Any idea how to fix it? Thanks..
[HTC Incredible S] Ichabond:
Never had this issue, looks like a hardware issue. Did you drop your phone, or did it get something sticky/greasy on it?

The button itself is fairly well protected, so you do need to really push it, since it's slightly inside the case, unlike most other power buttons, which are level with the rest of the case, or even slightly raised.
[HTC Incredible S] celaw:
I did drop my phone, but is a few months ago.. I try to push it hard but still no response.. must bring to sis to repair? Because my phone already over 1 yr warranty period..
[HTC Incredible S] sincem:
you can flash another ROM ,if this problem still persists ,maybe the hardware broken:o:o

That wat im saying wat a crappy gorilla 2 can be scratched ..failed in droppin test wats the use of it...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4238276:
The reason that Gorilla Glass 2 scratches more easily than the original is most likely because it is designed to not shatter as easily. In order to reduce the possibly of shattering the glass on impact you sacrifice the 'scratch-proof-ness' of the glass.

After saying that, I have noticed that the SGS3 shattered in the drop test. I'm not sure if the test I was watching is the same as you saw, however the one I saw had the handset drop on it's corner. No matter what glass you put on a phone if you drop it from that height on cement and it lands on the corner it will shatter. Since the surface area is reduced the impact is alot more focussed. From memory the iPhone that it was being compared to landed on its side.

Hope this help :)

Hello.

As many people know, Alfs kernel is best known for its performance in gaming and "higher AnTuTu scores". And, the problem is, it isn't compatible with many ROMs.

1. So, I wanted to make a ROM compatible with this kernel, and I do not know if its possible. Is it?

2. I noticed that almost every ROM is compatible with nAa kernel, is it coz many ROMs r based on miniCM7?

3. I wanted to mod Xperience nAa kernel to be compatible with Alfs v08aCM7 and is there any way for this to be performed?

Thank You for your help !

(FYI, the reason I'm a new user is coz I never had any questions unanswered in this forum.)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nerys71:
the biggest reason the S3 camera is so fast is AI Servo AF. ie full time real time auto focus. that is where most of your lag is so the S2 should also benefit from this (its the exact same camera IIRC) now it might not be able to dump a crap ton of pics as fast as you can press the button like the S3 can but it should be able to get that first shot instant like the S3 can.

Hi

I am noob in xperia&android configuration i have sony ericsson xperia mini and i want to install last ics custom rom and i want a guide step by step not some words what to do .. I have searched a lot for a thread like that for xperia mini but i didn't find :(

Help me please
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
To install a custom ROM you need to unlock your bootloader. Follow THIS tutorial.

Also, official ICS for mini has not been released yet. You could want to wait some time, or you can install a custom ROM. It's up to you.

Also, you should edit your thread's title. It's a little bit too.. how to say... generic. :rolleyes:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] UchihaDareNial:
It is better to wait for official ICS to come for youe phone,if you don't know how to update your phone, I can help..

You may reserve my post for future use :rolleyes:

1.First,download PC Companion from the internet (I would recommend SONY Update Service aka SUS but you're still newbie,so I'll give easy software for you to use)

2.Install it

3.After install,download Xperia Mini driver for your phone and install it before using the PC Companion (I only connect my phone to my computer and it install the driver automatically) (MAKE SURE YOUR PHONE IS IN MSC MODE,NOT MTP MODE)

4.After successfully install the phone driver,run the PC Companion (run with administrator? If you're on vista)

5.If the PCC ask for downloading the update for the software itself,let it be

6.After downloading update and everything is loaded,connect your phone through USB

7.Connect your memory stick to computer (if asked)

8.PC Companion will say update available for your phone if your phone got some :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
But think of this tutorial, do you want a custom rom or do you want only ics from sony?

Cause when you unlock your bootloader, you will lose your warranty or you must do it by testpoint method. There are some roms for locked bootloader too, but if you want to try all the roms for xm you will need to unlock your bootloader.

If you only want ics, wait a bit until the official ftf is uploaded and then you can flash with flashtool. If it is on there will be a thread for "noobs" too!

Hey All,

Phone: LG Optimus 3D

ROM: Meemo23's DNA_GB 2.0

Android: v2.3.5

I'm trying to run the Paper Camera app on my phone, but I'm having a hard time keeping it running! It seems to crash almost all the time.

Symptoms I'm seeing are:

1. Crash after Paper Camera start up, but works OK if I start it again.

2. If I try to load an image into the app for editing Paper Camera also crashes.

What's the dealio? Thanks.
[LG Optimus 3D] botson71:
Maybe it's the ROM you use? I don't have any problems with Paper Camera on v21E stock ROM.
[HTC One X] klibo84:
This black bar is in the way of most apps including FULL SCREEN GAMES. It’s just a waist of screen I was going to change the OS until I found out this would void the Warranty. So all I can do now is hope for an update getting rid of it.

Can this function not just be moved to hold press on the homescreen or recent apps button?

or even better hold down home screen button = main menu

and hold down recent apps button = 3 dot black bar

and then we get the rest of our screen back to 4.7-inch instead of 4.4-4.5-inch that's a big unneeded black bar.

HTC Thank You for your consideration.

[HTC One X] stezo2k:
It's a real annoyance. It shouldn't of been there in the first place. HTC should of put another button on the phone, would of been a lot easier and better for us

Sadly theres no way of changing it unless you root or install a custom ROM

I personally did the latter, I've got my recent apps mapped to menu and hold for recent apps, HTC should copy this
[HTC One X] klibo84:
If some one else wants to link the the thread on htcforums.com and vote then hopefully in an update this will be changed... until then maybe someone will figger out how to fix this with out voiding the Warranty. But its a slim chance i know.

Hence me trying to bring this to HTC's attention.
[HTC One X] Robster83:
Isn't this down to software developers, not HTC? It's an ICS change to remove the Menu button and relocate it elsewhere within the App, HTC are just designing their hardware around the software.

When developers bother to update their Apps to reflect this change in ICS, the menu bar goes away, as it does for already updated Apps.
[HTC One X] klibo84:
ah good point I didn't think of that. the where would u say the best place to post is? :rolleyes:

EDIT: google FTW androidforums.com would this be the best bet?

EDIT: now also on the androidforums.com/htc-one-x-xl with poll
[HTC One X] Flo95:
That's why mine is rooted :D
[HTC One X] dmestriner:
yep, Google wants to get rid of physical menu buttons, because in ICS they made actionbars, bars that can hold a menu button. Many apps are not yet ICS optimized, so the new phones that lack a menu button get an autogenerated soft menu button. On the Galaxy Nexus the black bar also holds the home and back button, so the menu button only gets added to this bar. Samsung ignored this request by google and just put a physical software button on their S3, because they think it's better for the users. So in the end, the bottleneck is indeed the developers not optimizing their apps...
[HTC One X] klibo84:
I am rite in saying there is no way to do it with out voiding the Warranty? I have looked.:cool:

Edit: ah i c thanks dmestriner
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
You can get rid of it without root. Heres how:

1. Backup your apps with astro and transfer them to your PC.

2. Download apktool here

3. Decompile your app using apktool. (there are plenty of guides out there)

4. Open the androidmanifest.xml and look for the attribute targetSdkVersion. Change the value to 14. (You can use minSdkversion in case the targetSdkversion is missing.)

5. Recompile the app with apktool.

6. Sign and zipalign the app. (apktool or signare)

7. Transfer back to phone and install.

8. Enjoy your menu-buttonless apps :D
[HTC One X] Meltus:
Sounds interesting, never thought of trying that.

Wouldn't it crash some apps though, if they rely on specific API's from 4.0.3?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Yup, but it works on 90% of the apps i've tried.
[HTC One X] klibo84:
and this wont void the Warranty? cos if not i am so doing this.

EDIT: Would this mean you would each app separately and again when there updated...if so pass ;-)

but it would be better if the developers of ICS sorted it.
[HTC One X] patp:
How'd you get rid of it if you do have root (is there a way other than flashing a kernel / new rom?).
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
No it wont void the warranty. You have to do every app separately and again if updated. Kinda slow but gets the job done. :D

[Motorola Droid RAZR] nigezee:
to make the long story short i called verizon on 6/10/12 who ended up calling motorola on 3 way to get me a new phone, not a refurbished. (i have white bars when using anything that requires the internet). Before the verizon lady called moto (which also has a razr) we had a convo about our razr's and how great they are. i told her i herd the ics update was coming out on the 12th and she had no idea about the update release date. So after talking to the moto rep for about 5 minutes about my data signal issues. the verizon rep says "so when will the ics software be released" and i was like "yea, i herd it was comin out on the 12th". The moto guys says hold on and i can hear some typing on the computer. Then the moto rep says "there is no official release date for the ics software. it shows that it is in the planning stages" So with that said i dont believe that it wil be out today. unless its some kind of secret or something. i know that ive seen it say "in development phase" on the moto website. i jus left it alone. Moto didnt want to send me a new phone, he jus offered to repair it for free which wasnt help cause he asked the verizon rep if she could get me a loaner phone. she told him that we (verizon) can just send me another refurbished phone and ill send back the one im having problems with. Moto was of no help at all. i hope that helps anyone out thats expecting the update to come out today. I really hope that I am wrong but I just wanted to share my phone convo with verizon and moto while on 3 way a couple of days ago.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
Not that I believe the update will release today, tomorrow, or next week, but you do have to consider who you're talking to. You were speaking to someone in service. Only a hand full of departments know actual release dates of updates/new products. The company I work for is the same way. We keep new product releases *hush* *hush* until just before launch. Then we flood our company with info just a week or so before launch and ask that they keep quiet until launch date.

In short, the release probably wont happen today. But you were talking to the wrong person to find out. The fact that they requested you send your phone in for service instead of making the call for a replacement tells me that they're probably not high enough on the ladder to know much in terms of releases.

I don't think you have to re-install everything. you only have to set up an APN.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] powerofthink:
Go to Settings, under Mobile networks, then choose Access Point Names.

you can see at least the original one provided by your carrier (in my case it was Turkcell internet).

if you can, stay in this screen and press the bottom left button, the menu key.

then you should see a menu bar show up at the bottom of the screen, with 2 choices: "chose your APN" or "Reset to default".

just hit "reset to default", then it will start running and within seconds you can see the APN has changed!

If you want, reboot your phone and coming up again!!!!

I hope that it can be usefull for you..
