[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
Hello :)

I wanted to know if after installing MIUI ..do the themes work ..or we have to do it the other way by ..creating a new folder called MIUI then themes and put the themes in that folder and make it work

Thanking you :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
Miui makes autimaticaly miui/themes folder.

Put themes into this folder and they appears. Some heavy themes need restarting phone to work correctly.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] geondut:
I used MIUI rom in my Neo.. but when I played wind up knight its a bit laggy.. even after I overclocked my neo to 1,4 ghz its still laggy.. I dont know how was the other MIUI user experience..
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] _Noctis_:
just got myself this tab ...

honeycomb felt sooo slow and annoying ... so ... root, flash ics 4.0.4, all snappy and i'm happy.

now, i backed up with TB some of the apps i actually wanted from the stock rom ... but ... whenever i try to restore them on ics ... TB will just hang (says restoring, and waits ... and waits ... and waits ... and nothing happens ... )

some other thread says not to try to restore system apps, but i never had this problem with my galaxy s2 ...

any ideas / comments / suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Pfeffernuss:
You should never restore system apps from another "style" (HC --> ICS) of Rom.

This will always lead to problems, whichever device you're on.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] _Noctis_:
hmmm ... cheers ...

seems like there's not much i can do then i guess ... :)

will have to either find the equivalent versions on ICS, or hope samsung will get our ICS out for us ...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Caffeine Fever:
Indeed you won't be able to restore some apps, like polaris office for example, when you update to ICS. However if we eventually get the ICS update from samsung, it seems very likely that any app from the stock ICS ROM will be usable with AOKP.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] _Noctis_:
hmmm ...well ... threads are suggesting we are going to get an update ...

shame i had to deal with kies ... darn buggy software ... samsung should be ashamed ...

anyways, reverted back to my 3.1 HC, upgraded via kies (after an hour of grief to get it running) to 3.2. still not as snappy as ICS, but, i'll hand it to samsung, the gui seems much cleaner, and the default music app is worth it. it's not as amazing as sony's default one, but it's the best music player i've come across so far (and i've tested A LOT ... )

back to waiting i guess :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] gorak86:
generally you will not be able to use any Sammy apps with aokp in my experience
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] _Noctis_:
as i said ...either waiting for samsung to roll out ICS, or writing my own music player ... since i'm rather busy with other things, i think i'll wait for now :)
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jetbruceli:
OK all, I am fairly new to WP7 but I have followed all steps to figure this out.

ON this HD7 phone with the latest European Update, the phone is unlocked too, The signal is lost without warning or reason. No signal at all! Even gone after a reboot. The only way to get it back is to keep rebooting till it comes back. Even taking the sim card out and in dont seem to help.

Wifi is fine and doesnt have an issue at all.

Now coming from an Android background sometimes this is due to a bad kernal and I would just flash a new one and see if that works.

Being new to WP7, I would try to flash a new rom since this phone is way past its warranty.

If I flash, what and where are the tools for this?

Edit! Hey guys and gals good news. Seems like the antenna was messed with before so I just pealled it out and reapplied it down making sure it was not crinkled!

And guess what? It works! Woo hoo!

Thanks bud but I fixed it! I think the device is too updated to

Get root or whatever u all call it.

I am not a big fan of the wp7 layout but I am impressed with the fact that the Htc hd7 has outdated hardware it performs very well.

I know the wp7 is very stable and smooth just not my taste. Anyways thanks again

I really want to try to start making themes for my phone. If anyone could tell me what i need or if there's a guide that would be great. also i'm about to get a mac can you use the tools you need for everything on iOS? ty in advance :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
I need to warranty out my phone for headset jack issues. So i flash it back to stock

Flash recovery first then master reset through stock recovery

Odin stock tmo 2.3.6

I didnt login to google at first. I have the super user elte app purchased and it auto installed.

After this it rooted itself and super user was found with privellages as well... Rom manager installed and so did tb and i waz able to recover a few apps...

Wtf how did this happen
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
Flashed stock recovery thru odin ftw
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CAYCE_VII:
You did SOMETHINg wrong. I KNOW there's a forum here for flashing back to stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
Yeah, i know. I used it lemme check what kernel im on
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
Naw, now this really doesnt make sense View attachment 1140273
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
Hey Ninos ill stop by tonight and take a look at it cause i had some questions for you about my unlock code...it wont work...i put my girls old att sim in and it asked for my code but it said wrong code when i installed it. I double checked the IMEI and they match so idk.

Edit: You have all stock? ROM, Kernel and recovery? If you have stock recovery then try and uninstall the superuser and rom manager apps and reboot into stock recovery and wipe cache and reboot see if that works?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
If your sending it back to Tmobile, KL1 isn't even the official stock firmware anymore. I would be flashing LE1 personally. At the very least KID. Both have Odin firmwares in the dev section. That's just my opinion though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] starskyrob:
Factory reset before odining
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
Lol i did that too i must have factorey reset the thing 30 times unmounted everything and formated as well im so fregin confuzed. Maybe there was some left over system data some how, i dont understand how though cause it was formated through clwmod the og way
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
Well i have to wait a day for my exhange so ill flash the latest stock firmware. I took a gamble flashing this back to stock. Aside from the head set jack issues the usb doesnt want to connect without a lil jiggle.

I had to jig cable it once when i was odining the stock recovery. It got disconnected in the middle of the flash. I had to turn my a/c off cause even the small breaze hitting the wire would make it disconnect
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
Lol im in at 3 today mr geo engineer lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
:D alright ill be out around then.

You may have flashed a stock rooted ROM... Otherwise you are the Root Master... **One touch rooter**
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
Nope it was a stock tmo tar rom double checked. I am either the new root master or ive just given birth to skynet

Sorry guys no zombie invasion just crazy robuts
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ninosmaxima:
ok guys im really scared now, i downgraded to my old vibrant for a while to sell my sgs II

phone was super stock before, it was given to me by a friend who knows absolutley nothing about rooting, i root his phones for him.

phone was reset 3 times with stock reset,

im freaking out cause this happens to anyphone i sign in with my gmail and im at a point where im thinking about contacting the fbi.. this is some freaky ass ****. something in my gmail is rooting my phones when i sign in.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Semantics:
I've tried the search option, and I haven't seen anything about this so I will apologize if necessary to the forum nazi's if this has been posted already.

Does anyone find it very difficult to drag down the notification bar on this phone? I have had two different cases on the phone and its not possible to flick the notification bar down with my thumb. I have to get my finger all the way up top and drag it down. I am also having some issues with the back button not being responsive unless I hit it on the left side.

Just trying to see if anyone is having this issue, or should I return my phone for a new one.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Under the option settings you might want to change your settings to "fat thumb" from "skinny thumb"

Sent from my EVO using the fat thumb setting.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BrianBaker:
No issues here pulling down the menu with my thumb.

As for the capacitive buttons. They worked better because all of our previous Evo's had the circle around them which gave us more area to hit. Why they removed it from the Evo is anybody's guess. I thought that was a look specifically for Evo's
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] eXplicit815:
Are your hands equal or less than that of a 5-year-olds? LOL, just playing.

TBH, I don't have any issues, but I don't use a case. If the case sinks down above or below the HTC logo at all, that might be your problem.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] typhoonikan:
I have the otterbox, and I experience this slightly. I have to be sure to exaggerate my motion.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] eXplicit815:
It looks like it does sink down into the glass, so I would assume that's the case. I don't run a case on mine, so when I reach for the notification bar, I usually grab above the illuminated portion of the screen and start dragging down. I'm assuming you're probably not able to do that with the type of case you're running.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] iamkoza:
same here, kind of annoying but i deal with it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jpbme:
I had this problem on my OG when I had an otterbox on it. You'll probably get used to it with time. Or find a case that doesn't go that low on the top.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] erikivy:
For what it's worth, there are other launchers out there that allow you to assign swipe up and swipe down motions to open things like notifications, docks and app drawers. If you are willing to give up Sense, these launchers will easily solve the problem described above. However, I understand that not everyone will want to give up what Sense offers. I'm just throwing out the option for anyone who may be interested in alternative launchers. I use Nova Launcher and couldn't be happier.

Just my two rubles..... :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ms79723:

Does xperia S connect to 5GhZ networks?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Horse Trader:
.... Err, I think you will find, the Xperia S (in the UK anyway) will not receive 5Ghz WiFi signals.

My router is dual band, as is some of my equipment, but, when tested, the Xperia S, did not 'see' the 5Ghz signal.

Hope this helps.......................
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Is it actually legal in the UK? I think it depends on your region.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scratchling:
Just looked there.

Using a WNDR3800, which is legal in the UK and Ireland btw, and it seems I cant see my 5Ghz AP. Pick up the supporting three 2.4s but not it.

Not that an XS needs those speeds though, only real point would be in a place with a huge amount of EMI.

[Android General] mutineer33:
I am a Galaxy Note user and it is my first android phone. Love it so far but worry about security sometimes given the permissions are so vague.

Anyway I found this article interesting:

http://blogs.cio.com/mobile-security/17170/android-malware-scam-nets-265k-lands-it-execs-tokyo-jail

What do you guys (and girls) think?

Is this tip of the ice berg type stuff? Or just stuff that porn addicts are going to run into?

Could any AV really have detected and stopped this thing?

Interested in all opinions.

Cheers!
[Android General] member68:
First things first: If you are rooted, use LBE Privacy Guard to add a bit of protection to your phone. That way they can't just send all your contacts out without you knowing about it. Make sure you set individual permissions for every app you install.

Secondly, if I get any annoying notifications, I just uninstall the app that's causing them. Since Android does not execute application code when uninstalling, you don't have to worry about the app trying to break your phone (which is really hard considering the sandbox design of Android) as a final revenge of some sort.

Third, I think most of the articles about malware are pure fear mongering. They are usually posted by AV software makers who want to sell their own products. As long as you stick to the Play Store and always check app permissions, you should be safe. If you start installing any app you find without checking where it came from or what permissions it wants, you will have malware issues soon. Self protection and a little bit of common sense will help you quite a bit in this matter.

[Android General] mutineer33:
Thanks for the recommendation on LBE -- I will check it out.

Yes -- I see most of the high volume posters here say that AVs are a waste of time and system resources.

Permissions can be tricky. Case in point -- I am looking at an anti-theft for my phone and am considering Avast and Cerberus. BOTH are very intrusive (requiring root access for advanced features. Avast is a large and reputable company so that alleviates my concerns a bit. Cerberus is a better developed offering in terms of features and benefits (they have a portal while Avast is still stuck on SMS only management of lost phones). The problem is I know nothing about the company or people behind then and I pretty much have to give them access to my entire phone in order to use all the features. As a relative noob it is really difficult to make an informed decision on whether to give all these permissions or not.
[Android General] member68:
I'm using Cerberus. I've tried it a couple of times, works perfectly. But as always, you never get 100% security.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Android General] mutineer33:
Yes -- I trialled it and decided to buy yesterday. Features and benefits wise its an easy decision if you want an anti-theft app. I worry a bit though that they seem so small --- I hope they properly secure the infrastructure from which they host all these accounts.

Well there is no need for us to continue *****ing about Nvidia now that Linus himself told them to **** off :D:D:D
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
hahaha, awesome hopefully the pricks at nvidia will notice and actually release something. Instead of that arrogant jerk ass response of we have no obligation to release the source codes. Gtfo nvidia there supposed to support dev but they say that.

One of the reasons why i will try to avoid buying ANY Nvidia-equipped devices in the future.

Shame on them
[LG Optimus 2x] microcris:
Same here.

The ironic thing is:

I never had a good experience with LG phones. Then I saw the O2X equipped with a Nvidia SoC and I thought " if it is Nvidia, it is good". I BOUGHT MY PHONE BECAUSE IT HAS A TEGRA 2! ...and now I regret so much :(
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Update

Nvidia responds to Linus' F word!

Full response:

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTEyMjk

If I understand my corporate mumbo jumbo correctly. The answer is a big fat no, we will not be sharing.

Nvidia will stay closed source and will stay with internal Nvidia codes, all in the mission to produce the most "consistent GPU experience" to the end user.

Yeah, consistent fail.

[LG Optimus 2x] korgndm:
I don't know who's worse: LG for delaying and delaying again the release of ICS for the O2X, or Nvidia, for saying "this belongs to us, and you can't have it!"

But, since I'm an optimistic person, I'm hoping for new developments in the next couple of days. After all, rumor has it that a certain ZTE Mimosa X has the same cpu as the O2X, and since they are so identical, someone just might make drivers for our LG to run ICS flawlessly.

[LG Optimus 2x] TheNesski:
This issue about Nvidia and Lg is an eye opener for all of us. People shouldn't just run around saying I will never buy from LG again but to put into consideration when buying a new phone like hardware of the phone your buying, company update release history and 'co-working' with other companies (Lg-Nvidia for example).

If all you get to think about this, the future for you and your device might not be all that bad :D

Well that's true. They don't care about mine or your opinion.

[LG Optimus 2x] I.m.Tuga:
You're absolutly right tonyp.

Linus is someone with alot of influence.

He is the "father" of linux so anything told by him, any negative or positive comment from him to another company can make some damage, in this case to Nvidia.

This frustration to Nvidia may be posted in many sites across the world. And may put Nvidia with bad marketing position.

The PR guys from Nvidia who wrote back, are shooting even more bullets into their own feet, stating in other words that they will keep like this.
[LG Optimus 2x] darenb4:
I'm getting annoyed with waiting for an update to ics its been way too long but on the other hand when it does come it should be flawless as I've noticed with older phones I had after rushed updates there had to be patches and fixes so if when its released it should be the finished article with no need to complain.. can't wait for the barage of abuse once 5.0 (jellybean) is released then again we'll all have quad core by then... PS I am getting an optimus 4x always prefer lg hardware and lets be honest too many awesome devs to complain about stock software we don't even use
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Then you don't have much experience with LG Android updates, do you?

And of course LG will make everything better with 4x. Because they learnt from their mistakes in the past :cool:
[LG Optimus 2x] bliizzz:
Nvidia f*** you fixed :p
[LG Optimus 2x] dark_sat:
In this case, a phone, I don't think it's nVidia fault.

When LG decided they'll put an Tegra 2 processor on their hardware, they made a contract with nVidia, to get the proper software from them (like any other manufacturer does, including video cards).

I'm pretty sure that the "lazy side" here is LG, why would they dump a ton of money in software development when something does work? (not broken, don't fix it).

When we bought these phones, we knew that they supported Android 2.2

The manufacture does NOT have to keep updating the software (although it's highly desirable). I think this trend will get other manufactures: want an updated phone? Buy a new one, we have it!
