[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AceRoom:
You can quadruple boot. It's really not a big deal. I'm not sure about the grub for android x86 (I've only started playing with it a couple of days back) but if it's grub legacy, it can become a pain to set up other OSes other than the defaults. On the other hand, with grub2 (which comes with all standard linux distros) is very efficient at finding and loading the OSes so that would be the simplest way.

If it reassures you, I triple boot nearly all the time (Currently have Win7, Fedora 17 and Mint 13)

If you don't want to, you can perhaps try GRUB4DOS http://sourceforge.net/projects/grub4dos/

I haven't used it though so you'll need to go through it properly though. I'm sure you already know but just in case: make sure you keep another computer or at least some access to the internet while you are playing with GRUB in case of errors.

Hello! Today I received a update for my sgs3.. I have the unbranded version from Norway! I pressed ok, update now, but then the phone just rebooted into CWM and the signature fault stopped it all. Has anyone else received this update? And does anyone know what it does/how to install it on a rooted device?

Thanx
[Galaxy S III General] mbroeders:
Try Kies. AFAIK OTA update doesn't work on a rooted phone, but Kies should...

Hello. I hope that somebody can help me with my phone.I was doing a rom update for my toshiba portege G810 under windows 7 and at some point the phone restarted and windows detected 3 new devices and asked me for drivers. The updating software than gave me a phone connection error . My phone now is not showing anything on the screen and everytime I connect it to the pc (now I am on windows xp) is showing 3 devices on the device manager(I had allready found the drivers for them). I have played a little bit with QPST from qulacomm and I managed to copy the content of the internal memory with " Memory debug App " . Is there any method to fix the phone ? If I can do that with QPST please let me know . Any advice is more than wellcome. Thank you in advance .

Hello, i just bought my i9300 a few weeks ago. All seemed normal when i noticed that when i was viewing a gray screen ( e.g. a game loading ) or anything that wasnt completely black, there were some spots in my screen. I thought at first that it was some graphics or glitch from the game, but then tried loading another game with a similar gray screen and they were still there. They arent scratches or anything like that ,it seems that its from inside the digitalizer. I dont know if i can even put a photo of that, because its not easily visible. My phone obviously has its warrany voided due to some rooting. If i flash the stock firmware, unroot it and run triangleaway, do you think i would be able to swap it for a brand new? :confused:

For a long time I can find link for a mod file then I just replace it in system and everything work perfectly ,but It's just for older firmware version not for 4.0.4 and not for SSGS3.

since I got my GS3 I try to searching for that mod file for 4.0.4 everyday but no one do it ,So I just want to know How can I make it myself.

Can someone give me a bit clue or some link that I can learn how to do it myself.

Thanks you so much.
[HD2 General] WildSingh:
Can someone please tell me, where is the cache for images when using HTC Contact to view contacts Facebook albums?

I know that when using the FB app, files are cached in fbimagescache folder.

However, I'm pretty certain that the HTC Contact app uses a cache, as previously viewed images load quicker than when viewing images for the first time.

But its not from the fbimagecache folder as I have tested it by viewing images on separate days and checking the dates.

Thanks in advance.

Tip

If you are doing this on windows make sure you CD to here for issuing the commands:

%profilename%\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\tools

Don't use the stuff in C:\Program Files\Android. That is the wrong location.

The below gets your GAPPS too. You can download Cyanogens GAPPS to get what you need. Just edit the necessary lines below.

cd %profilename%\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\

.\tools\emulator -avd MyAndroid -partition-size 2047 -no-snapshot-load -verbose

echo wait for boot

pause

.\platform-tools\adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system

.\platform-tools\adb push %~dp0platform-tools\su /system/xbin/

.\platform-tools\adb push %~dp0platform-tools\busybox /system/xbin/

.\platform-tools\adb shell chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su

How to make the System ROM space more freely???

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry for my noob question. Now, I see.

I have done untill rename userdata-qemu.img to system.img

But while I run from AVD Manager, my AVD got bootloop.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
That's because you haven't started your emulator with additional space. Use the -partition-size option as per niranjan94's post above.

I found an even better way to make a /system image, and adapted it for use on Windows hosts and using the x86 emulator images now available.

References:

http://blog.thecobraden.com/2012/06/making-persistent-changes-to-android.html

http://code.google.com/p/android-group-korea/downloads/detail?name=mkfs.yaffs2.x86

Place this batch file in the same folder as the mkfs.yaffs2.x86 binary and you'll get an emulator image updated to your liking and ready to run.

@echo off

adb -e remount

echo Pushing mkfs.yaffs2.x86 to device...
adb -e push mkfs.yaffs2.x86 /data/local/

echo Executing chmod 770 /data/local/mkfs.yaffs2.x86

echo Setting /system partition to read-only (Just to be safe!)

echo Creating YAFFS2 image of /system

People who have been with me since the birth of i9100G subforum , with understand this request

Lately there has been lots of development going on in the i1900G subforum .

Its is becoming very difficult to spot out the ROMS and the Off-topics ins the same single page .

So i have requested the Moderators of XDA , to create a i1900G sepate Forum .

Here is the message that i have send them :

"At first i1900G (a variant of the SGS2 ), was a small community and it had no development .

once ICS was released from samsung and codeworkx gave us CM9 .

there has been lots of development going on , with CM9 as Base.

clearly it has become very crowded amd unclear with n00bs creating new tread for petty issues .

if you a new forum for the i9100G , all unnoticed ROM , which have been pushed away to the second page will get more attention .

So please create a i1900G forum for us , instead of a single subforum .

Help the troubled i9100G users.

Troubled i9100G user,

Since Sunday my Aria has started heating up weirdly. When charging and while using, there is tremendous heating in the area right behind the optical touchpad.

Also the battery is not charging properly and discharging quickly.

I first thought it may be a battery problem, but wanted some genuine views regarding this.

Will changing my battery remove this issue? Has anyone faced anything similar?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smiles.smiley:
There will always be heat around the touchpad whenever you are charging while using it. Happens to me all the time at least. Unless your battery exceeded 45 degrees Celsius, then that's abnormal.

You can track your battery stats for example, heat with apps in Market.

You said it discharges awfully quickly. Mind telling me, how long does it take for it to discharge from 100% to below 10%?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plade:
Really quickly.

For example, I charged the phone whole night from a wall charger, while switched off.

In the morning, I turn on the phone, it shows me 19% battery. I rebooted: 8%. Rebooted again: 2%. This all happened in about 5 minutes after taking the phone off the charger.

The phone used the 2% battery for about 15 minutes on standby, with no internet, before dying.

Now it does not even turn on. The battery is definitely gone, since it has bulged a bit. But I want to be sure before buying a new battery, if the new battery will face the same fate or not.

For now, I have given the phone to my brother who will test the battery in his phone. Let's see.

There's definitely a problem with the battery. It is advised you do not charge a faulty battery. It may damage your device or worse, explode depending on what the fault may be.
