Can you tell me how to apply that tweak or provide a link regarding it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hsrbnr:
Help please!

I got the build.prop tweak for this, here :

ro.config.hwfeature_wakeupkey=1

but I cannot find this line in build.prop file in My live with Walkman.

Why is that so? Any way to wake screen by volume rockers?

Please suggest:

Should I add above line somewhere in build.prop

Hi All,

I've been running CM9 for a couple months now but I've found it to be a bit slow and not as polished (yet!) as the older CM7 builds. I tried flashing CM7 on my phone the usual way however after rebooting from Clockwork I just get a black screen, it's hard to see that the screen is on unless you put the phone somewhere dark. I flashed the UK Gingerbread SBF onto the phone to fix it and tried MIUI 2.3.7 and I had the same problem.

I've flashed these ROMs plenty of times in the past but now I just can't get them to work.

Any clues? :)

Thanks,

Tristan

You can't go back to Froyo from GB (except from China one).

You can use only GB ROMs. or do downgrade: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1497263

They run gingerbread, but they're tailored for the froyo kernel and won't work with your gingerbread sbf - just a thought I'd clarify, sorry if you know this now already :)

Hello everyone,

I want to know with launcher you think is the fastest, and doesn't use so much battery?

cheers, nathan-96
[General Questions and Answers] TeeJay3800:
Because of the controversy and arguments they inevitably generate, "best ROM" threads are prohibited on XDA. "Best launcher" threads tend to fall into the same category, especially when the criteria you're asking about is so subjective. Your best bet is to try a few for yourself, as only you can decide which launcher is ideal for your needs.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anyuwant:
So I just flashed an update of Resurrection Remix rom from 1.9.1 to 2.4, at first it was working fine, then, I noticed that the usual internal memory card files were in /emmc, which was typical for AOKP roms, so I went and looked for the solution, and then, theres this post about a workaround, right here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1536568 and so, it said to install directory bind and all that stuff.

Well because I'm stupid, I rushed and ticked the 'transfer files from target to data' which was not the thing to do. So all my internal files from /emmc went into external_sd.

So to sum it up, the files originally from my /external_sd/ went into /sdcard and the files from /sdcard went into /external_sd/.

I actually restored from the backup and thank goodness it was back to normal, BUT! I really liked that update but whenever I reflash that update back, for some reason the problem returns.

If anyone can help me, I'll be deeply in gratitude :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ephraim:
You could try but i doubt that. Just to make sure make a nandroid backup first. Do a factory reset and flash the rom you wanted and see if it fixes it. Anyway, you could just restore your backup if something goes wrong like you did before.

hello,i'm a new member here and this is my first post.Since my Galaxy ace broke i'm looking to find a new phone and i think i'm going with the desire s.I found this guy on ebay who sells his used desire s as faulty and claims it can't make or receive calls inside the u.k but after i asked him he said that it will work ok outside the u.k.Is that possible or is he lying.I really need some help on whether i should or shouldn't buy this phone.Thank you in advance and sorry for my english!
[HTC Desire S] nuts77:
Well you can try to ask the guy where, more precisely, the problem comes from...

If it's a hardware issue (antenna?), i don't think the phone will be able to receive or send calls, neither in the UK, nor anywhere else. On the other hand, if it's a ROM / settings / software issue, it will probably be possible to fix it by installing a new ROM...

However if you need to change your phone, it's just my opinion but I'd rather go to a more recent model like the One S or One X... Not the same price though I agree.

Hope this helps

try flashing the newest Radio Image.
[HTC Desire S] mrbishi:
Flashing a new radio won't do a thing if the phone is registered as lost or stolen, which is going to be the case unfortunately.

EDIT: If you get the IMEI number from him you can check it at http://www.checkmend.com/uk/ for a small fee.
[HTC Desire S] philm1996:
If it is not getting signal in the UK only then it is because the phone has been lost/stolen and the owner has rang up the network and they have put a block on it
[HTC Desire S] Forcefire:
I would say its stolen and the original owner has reported it to there provider who has blocked the phone.

If you buy it you could be buying stolen goods, mrbishi is right get the IMEI number and check it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otj80:
My SGS2 version is:

PDA: I9100XWKI4

PHONE: I9100XXKI1

CSC: I9100OXXKI2

My phone is currently rooted with CF-root. I'm selling the phone and getting a SGS3, so now I want to unroot the phone. I don't want to upgrade to a newer version of Android, just unroot and after that reset binary counter with an USB jig.

What should I do? Can I just flash the phone with XWKI4 stock kernel found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

Will flashing with stock kernel remove root and programs that came with CF-root or do I have to flash the full XWKI4 firmware package? Phone was updated to XWKI4 using Kies, so I guess I have to also replace the bootloader with old version? After that I can use the USB jig and reset binary counter?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Yep. You can flash the stock kernel, but given you're selling it I'd do the following:-

*Go into CWRecovery and format cache, data, system, & internal sd card.

*Flash stock rom in Odin

*Factory reset just for good measure

Done.

And yes, if you find the jig doesn't work initially, flash the old bootloader then jig it to reset the flash counter. Having said that, if the jig does work in the first instance, don't flash a bootloader just because it sounds reasonable to do so. The less messing around with bootloaders the better; you only play with them if you have a specific reason for doing so.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otj80:
Thanks! I'll give it a try. I want to be very careful, not a good time to brick the phone, the buyer wouldn't be happy...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
No probs ;-)

If you follow those steps the phone will be as close to the day you bought it as you can get it, obviously minus wear & tear.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otj80:
[SOLVED]

Went through these steps and now the phone is unrooted and with newest offcial version of ICS, and binary counter is reset.

Now the buyer wants the phone with ICS and I haven't gotten an usb jig, either.

So, would the simplest plan be now:

1) Go into CWRecovery and format cache, data, system, & internal sd card.

2) Flash newest official version of ICS, using ODIN (found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1544487). That would be XWLPG (I have the Nordic version of SGS2).

3) Root the phone with CF-root LPG

4) Use Chainfire's triangle away app

5) Again flash newest official version of ICS, using ODIN.

6) Factory reset

Would this remove root and reset binary counter? Will flashing newest official version of ICS after using the triangle away app change the counter value again?

After managing the mass storage, I got a new problem , which is, my songs are not recognized by any player. I open a media player and it just says that no music items.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fekken:
What player are you using? You can try a different player from the Play Store which lets you specify where your music files are located.

If you store your files in the internal storage, then I suggest you refresh the mediastore. If you store them on your external SD card, then reinsert it. Or format your SD card to cure it of errors.

Also make sure that there is no '.nomedia' file present within your music folder. :)

Hi guiz!

I installed CM9 on my HOX. But besides the known bugs with that, i also have issues with the bluetooth and GPS software.

Bluetooth simply wont turn on; when i pull/push the slider it keeps going back to 'off'...

GPS wont turn on either; when i open any form of navigation it keeps saying 'searching for gps signals', and the little icon in the top bar doesn't show up. and yes, i have turned on the internal GPS in the options ;)

although its not like i can test with a bluetooth gps now can i ^^

A lot of apps crash, too. Could be instantly, could be after 20 seconds, but they all crash with the 'has stopped working' or something alike. Kindof hard to use the phon this way. Stock rom didn't have those issues in the brief time i used that.

I can't ask this in the CM9 [WIP] forum, being a newbie and all. So I hope someone here can help me? Is my HOX different? Why it no work!? :D

Oh yeah, i have the international HOX, so the Tegra 3 one.

Nobody has any idea's on this? Flashed the kernel again, uploaded the new CM9 alpha 7. Still the same errors. Crashing seems less often; but still not bluetooth nor GPS :/
[Nook Touch General] foredog:
Hi,

I've been using Nook for two years and Nook Simple Touch for 5 months or so.

I've rooted both my devices and used them that way (until my original Nook got those screen problems and became unusable)

Starting from first days I realized that the battery life was quite shorter than advertised. In fact it was almost unacceptable, like draining %10-15 a day while standing by (at the regular screensaver)

First I thought this was caused by the rooting and custom firmware. I tried the regular disabling of services, but to no avail. After a while I decided to return to the stock 1.1 firmware (on NST). To my horror I saw that nothing changed. Then I rerooted the hardware, still same.

One day, while I was reading a book I got a call and had to leave the house very fast. Thus I bagged the NST and got out of the house.

After returning home, I left that bag in my living room and did not open it for five days. After five days I picked up the NST, which was %70 charged five days ago, sure that I had to charge it again. To my surprise I saw that the charge was still %62. How could this happen, I began to querry. And remembered that I did not manually activate the screensaver -which was my general behaviour.

After that day I did not manually activate the screensaver even once and the battery drain is never more than 1-2%/day.

I'm not an Android developer, I'm a regular computer guy (using computers for almost 30 years) but I have strong gut feeling that this may be the problem, that manually activating the screensaver is not same as activation after a time out.

I guess many people over here, being -not regular users but optimization obsessed technical people- prefer to activate the screensaver manually. Thus they have the drain problem.

If you are suffering the same problem, please test this and write your feedbacks over here. May be one of the coders can look into this problem in the end.

With kind regards
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
You may be onto something there.

I certainly believe that the problems are related to not fully going into sleep mode.

I have caught the Nook many times that it was supposed to be sleeping and the touch screen was still running.

I always used the power button when I'm done, I had the screen timeout set on one hour.

I just set my screen timeout to 10 seconds to play with this.

I couldn't get the Nook to act up with the power button shutdown.

To set your screen timeout to a arbitrary value (time in milliseconds):

adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db

sqlite3 settings.db
update system set value=10000 where name='screen_off_timeout';
.q

adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
[Nook Touch General] ApokrifX:
foredog,

Could you clarify a bit, please?

Nook can go into screensaver via

timeout,

front button,

back power button or

"button savior Off" button.

Which button you referring too to manually activate the screensaver? :confused:
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
I use my Nook Simple Touch minimally and almost always use the back button to activate the screensaver. I see pretty good battery life upto 20+ days. The only thing I do differently from you is turn off wifi before I activate the screensaver. Maybe wifi is the main cause for the battery drain.

--
[Nook Touch General] ApokrifX:
WiFi is definitely a big one.

Any easy way to "auto turn it off" with screensaver activation? :)
[Nook Touch General] ZilverZurfarn:
Don't know about that - I always use the "sleep" button to activate the "screensaver". Right now, I'm up to a month of use, and like 30% batt still. I turn wifi on when I need it, and off again when I don't. Glowlight on for like 20 min/day.

Actually really impressed with NST Glow.
[Nook Touch General] foredog:
Sorry I did not mention, that my wireless is always off.

@Apokrifx: I'm using the power button at the back to go to sleep mode.

What you all are saying is similar to general behavior. Everyone is not experiencing this drain among Nook users, only some.

In my case, letting NST time out really solved the problem.

What Renate says is really similar to my experience. Time and time I accidentally touched the screen (while it was on the screensaver and it asked for the swipe motion (meaning the touch interface is responding) which should not happen in the sleep mode.

I'll let you know if anything changes.

Thank you for the feedbacks.
[Nook Touch General] mjj777:
I think the original post info is quite accurate. I notice when I don't go back to the home screen, and leave it on the stock reader when I put it down-- battery life is much better.

It appears that, when the stock reader is running, it shuts down most background services. But, that's just a theory.
[Nook Touch General] speedman2202:
i guess when u activate ur screensaver that wont drain power from ur battery ..... cuz in screensaver mood the animation on screen stopped like calculator screen ..... just display image and didnt move any pixels on screen ..... so .... ummm .... i guess ur problem may u not charge battery well .... let me tell u .... u must per month empty the battery until nook tells u that ur nook device cant power on .... and that will guarantee to u long life to ur battery also keep ur battery more efficiently and working perfect

hope i helped ..... best regards :)
