[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomsterg:
I have some updates on this that may make this less opaque.

I looked into the implementation of getOMX().

It seems straight forward enough so I copied it to my own code instead of calling getOMX(). This time it didn't crash - this is becoming a little voodoo.

However I got the handle to the IOMX object.

So then I tried enumerating the components but the list comes back empty.

Anyone has any idea why?

Here is my original crashing code (crashing on the red line):

android::ProcessState::self()->startThreadPool();
sp<IServiceManager> sm = defaultServiceManager();
sp<IBinder> binder = sm->getService(String16("media.player"));
sp<IMediaPlayerService> service = interface_cast<IMediaPlayerService>(binder);
[COLOR="Red"]sp<IOMX> mOMX = service->getOMX();[/COLOR]

This is my non-crashing code that returns an empty component list:

android::ProcessState::self()->startThreadPool();
sp<IServiceManager> sm = defaultServiceManager();
sp<IBinder> binder = sm->getService(String16("media.player"));
sp<IMediaPlayerService> service = interface_cast<IMediaPlayerService>(binder);
sp<IOMX> mOMX;
{
Parcel data, reply;
data.writeInterfaceToken(service->getInterfaceDescriptor());
binder->transact(6, data, &reply);
mOMX = interface_cast<IOMX>(reply.readStrongBinder());
}

List<IOMX::ComponentInfo> componenInfos;
status_t err = mOMX->listNodes(&componenInfos);

if (componenInfos.size() == 0)
[COLOR="red"]log_err("no components found %d", err);[/COLOR]

I've also tried calling OMX_Init() before all this but it didn't help.

Please, if anyone has any idea what's going on I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you in advance

So I lost my Note. And I have been getting a stupid error from the play store. I figured out how to fix it, but not before losing my phone. I know about Plan B and Android Lost and I know I can remotely install them, but the store is messed up and won't download them. Any suggestions? PLEASE. If it helps, I have a tablet that is also hooked up to the same gmail accout. Can I somehow use web access only to find it via my gmail account?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
Try changing your email password. Clear Playstore cache in settings, applications. Then open Playstore. Log back in.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yollasho:
That sucks. Sorry.

Not sure how to get it back. It sucks att won't let you just go into a store and pay 10 bucks to track it by imei or something.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gk325:
I dont have the phone, how am I supposed to clear cache???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yollasho:
I don't think he actually read your post. Sorry bro. It might still install if you go to web play store and install cerebus to ur note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
I don't understand, you lost phone but play store is messed up on desktop and tablet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yollasho:
It doesn't sound like he's tried just getting on desktop web store. It may still install an app to the note from there I'd guess. He knows the note play store was messed up so he's concerned he won't be able to install anything on it.

I think going to web store still works in those situations although I'm not sure because it's been forever since my play store ****ed up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
Oh ok but it may still work from a pc

I mean just log on and try that simple
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gk325:
I can "install" it from the web store on my PC, but it will not actually download to my phone due to the phone market being messed up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kinghorsey:
Sucks. Only thing to do is report it missing and the provider will lock the SIM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
how are you sure if you dont have the phone to see?

but if you're 100% sure nothing will install using the web store then im not sure why you made this topic asking can you use the web to install an app...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
This is a major fail. You don't have the phone, you can't install anything on your phone without it. Even if somehow an app gets installed, how would you ever open the app without the phone?Simple as that. Im sorry for your loss.

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] lseidman:
If you're not aware of this App, it was originally designed for WP7 and currently still exists but undergoing even more feature and UI changes, so keep looking out for it on WP7.

Anyways, this is a totally unfinished SS of the App and another SS of the App being able to send data to a snapped-App, my other App that is Facebook for Windows 8 (just showing how my Job App can send to pre-existing Apps and my Facebook App able to be used to send data to an auth'd end-users account; View FBMetro thread for more details).

Again, this is nowhere near done but check out the WP7 one to kind of get what will be added (Augmented Reality, Map, GPS/Turn-by-Turn Nav, etc).

Hi with so many cyanogenMod 9 roms out there now and to help new comers choose between roms I thought I would start a poll to help decide which is better as the roms progress with newer builds.I will add new roms as they come hope this helps people to choose thanks.

Why didn't you include the first CM9 that was available on xda, and the only one that has nightly builds? (Intrepresentation's originally and then picked up by tgascoigne)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1661629

And I don't think Domination is really a "CM9" build, rather a Based-on-CM9 since it has many extra features and has differed significantly from a stock CM9 install (not that there is anything wrong with that).

Choice is good, naturally but too many of the same thing and it doesn't benefit anyone in the end. In principle, competition may be good but it's almost like two stores under selling each other to get the customers or the glory or what have you.

If one team comes up with a solution, and the others copy it? then who is really benefiting here? where's the innovation in other releases?

These teams should really work together and find a FINAL CM9 build and THEN based their future ROMs on this official unofficial CM9 ROM.

Totally agree... This is the flip side of open source culture... too many distrubations of basically the same. One major reason why linux havent made it on workstation/desktop market. u sortof need to be a "nerd" to know the difference and still be left out in the dark to know whats best for you ;) same goes for Android mods/roms etc
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Robsa:
Hi guys

I'm a recent convert from an iPhone so please be gentle! If my phone goes into power saving mode, it reduces the screen brightness, reduces the screen timeout etc. but when I plug it back in and charge it, even though its back up to 100% the power save settings are still in place, and I have to manually put the settings back.

Its this right? I would have thought it would automatically remove the power save settings once the battery goes above 30%?

Thanks!

Robsa
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Akiainavas:
You need to configure "Custom Power Saving Mode" and specify the battery level you want it to be triggered at. It should turn off automatically then after your phone is charged beyond this point - but this feature is a bit bugged so it might not work as intended.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] azzledazzle:
Yeah I too have to manually turn it off, But there is a toggle in the status bar, So its just 1 tap away :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Robsa:
Thanks guys.I am still getting used to a phone that crashes and doesn't work as intended sometimes! I do love I it though!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] the red krawler:
Massive pro tip: Use something like Llama (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kebab.Llama&hl=en) and configure your own "power saving mode" instead. It's just a matter of making rules like "if battery is < 30%, disable wifi" and the like.

The built-in one is a bit crap to start with, and kind of broken anyway.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Akiainavas:
That's thanks to Samsung's bloatware. Consider AOSP Android like CM9, only then will you see how fast, smooth and relatively error-free Android really is.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RavenY2K3:
^^^On that note ^^^

If you do try those ROMs, as good as they are, you'll loose the pen support. If you don't use it or s-memo etc... Then go for it.
[HD Mini General] eggbert:
Hey,

Sorry to post this in this part of the forum but as a newbie I'm not able to post directly to the android development thread.

My problem is that callers can't hear me when they call me but when I call them everything works just fine.

I've searched the forum and have seen some answers like installing another dialer and also that it would be related to the phone being on vibration or silent mode.

I've tried both and I've got some positive results but nothing seems to last. After reboot or just waiting a few hour's the problem seems to return and go away again.

I wonder if anyone has a concrete answers to when this does happen en what to do to avoid if from happening

Cheers Eggbert

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] sf67:
Hello all! I just bought the Acer A700 tablet (my first tablet!) and had a concern about the initial battery charging. The manual stated NOT to power up the tablet and play with it, but to charge it first for about 4 hours. I was so excited about this new tablet that I didn't read the manual and opened up to play around with it (for about 2 hrs and then I charged it to 100%). Now I have read many places that always says you should charge your tablet to 100% BEFORE powering it up for the first time to extend the battery life of the tablet. My concern is that not charging the tablet immediately and using it right away screwed up my battery somewhat? :( I do realize this is MY fault for not reading the manual at first. Any inputs would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] martyg7:

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] TomONeill:
I just got the tablet this noon. The manual is still in plastic (if that even was the manual) and I used it for 2 1\2 hours until the battery was dead. Now Im charging and using the tablet (thiugh it almost doesn't add up..). I always though you had to empty the battery first and then charge it fully up. Turns out it's the other way round.. Well, I don't think it's a real biggie.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] salisbury_steak:
I actually fully drained the tablet before charging it for 4 hours. :D

[Nexus S General] robogoflow:
Hello.

Im have a question for someone who has a rooted nexus s 4g.

I've been rooting since the motorola droid milestone so since then i rooted 3 android devices. (two year contract makes me suffer).

Anyway, i been waiting soo bad for ics and had my device rooted running unofficial ics roms so when it updated i flashed back to stock.

My phone sucks now so i want to root but i still want the basic ics theme so what would you recommend.

im thinking just root it and then flash a matrix kernal. or whatever kernal works best for most of you.

And.. when i root it does it install a custom rom or it just unlocks the one im using.

thanks in advance.
[Nexus S General] m.sabra:
when you root the phone stays with it's current ROM,so no it will not flash a custom ROM for you,if the ics them is your only concern,there is many ROMs that keep this theme (check development section),and sure you can root and keep the stock ROM and flash any kernel you want.
[Nexus S General] robogoflow:
Thanks for the help. Just what I was looking for. I'm going to reroot when I get out of work.

I'm going to do some more research because I love maths kid matrix but I might want to try air kernal. Maybe try slim ics.

Instructions

Download the ROM zip file to your SD card

Reboot to CWM/TWRP

Do a factory reset (only needed if you were not previously running cm9 - herring)

Format /system (same as with factory reset, only needed if not previously running cm9 - herring)

Flash the ROM using CWM/TWRP

(Optional) Flash gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip if you want the Market plus other Google apps.

Clear cache and dalvik cache, fixing permissions at this point is a good idea!

Reboot to the ROM

If you previously had IMEI/EFS problems, flash back to stock with Eollie's Heimdall OneClick, then flash CM9 from there. NOTE: currently wifi will not work after flashing the oneclick. Known issue.

Flashing from 3.0.2.8 recovery does not work. Make sure the version of your recovery is 5.0.2.x (x being 7 or 8). If you use eollie's oneclick, you will have the right recovery.

This kernel is currently herring (stock) based. We plan to change to aries when it stabilizes.

So above where I say "cm9 - herring", that is different then "cm9 - aries".

Got problems? Ask in the Q&A Thread!
