[General Questions and Answers] Srambo217:
I'm not entirely sure where I should start. I want to make a camera application which adds an image of an object to a photo being taken. I enjoy flashing ROMs and what not but as far as developing goes I'm clueless. Where should I start? Are there any trustworthy websites that can teach me the basics?
[General Questions and Answers] keertikumar_ws:
First and foremost requirement is a basic knowledge of JAVA ;) i guess without the knowledge of JAVA its really difficult to develop apps for android....

Next is Android SDK and an IDE... My personal recomendation is Eclipse(with ADT plugin).

There is a wonderful book for android development ..more info www(dot)dummies(dot)com

I guess that book is enough to give a kick start to android development ;)
[General Questions and Answers] suhas_sm:
go to developers.android.com

It is by far the best resource or learning android.
[General Questions and Answers] theInfected1:
Have you done any programming before? Learning to develop for Android is no different than learning a new programming language. In this case Java.

Start by creating a hello world app. developer(dot)android(dot)com/training/basics/firstapp/index.html

The Internet is definitely your #1 source. The SDK has be used by other people quite thoroughly so even by searching something as specific as "putting an overlay image on a camera picture" will probably yield many result.

Have fun!

but be patient learning programming is really hard for me at least ...im struggling with my first language (python) for 8 months now and i dont have any results...:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pejan:
I understand this is a sensitive subject to bring up, as there are 10 battery threads popping up each day.

But I think I have an unusual battery problem...

My Galaxy Nexus eats pretty much the same amount of juice whether it's powered on or completely powered off, and I get about 8h out of my batteries.

I have 3 batteries, and all of them give me about the same battery time.

I just did a short test:

1. Charge battery in cradle to full.

2. Put the fully charged battery into the phone.

3. Power on phone, and check battery - 99%

4. Power off.

5. Power on the phone 30 min later, and the battery is down to 91%

Can anyone out there give me a hint as to what can possibly drain my battery when the phone is powered off?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
your batterstats can be off a little, or your 3 batteries are bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JaiaV:
If your phone is draining a significant amount of battery over a matter of several hours....say...20-30% or more during an eight hour period of being turned off, then something is wrong with your phone or batteries (less likely with all three).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pejan:
I suppose it's possible that all 3 batteries are bad, but I find it unlikely as I didn't buy them at the same time.

I have tried to reset the battery stats from the CWM recovery menu, but I read earlier today that resetting the battery stats does not influence battery time.

8h, then the phone shuts off.

Or leaving the phone powered off for about the same time, I can't power it on as the battery is completely drained.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
Once your battery is fully charged it will stop charging the phone but continue to display that it's "charged" until it drops below 90%.

After you restart the phone it will display the current charge.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
His batteries die when the phone is off. Did you even read the thread?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
Yes I did read his post. I wrote what I thought was happening. It has been a common thing people have been confused about on android since day one.

In other news... You sure love your condescending replies don't you?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
When your battery dies when it is off it is not doing what you are describing.

Implying you didn't read.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Fyi that was only true on previous nexus like the nexus one. The gnex driver does not work this way anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
Might be a rouge app. Post a picture of your battery stats.

Swyped on my CM9 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsinc1962:
The other question is if the problem is a new one or something that's been going on since the phone was new?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
He said even if his phone is off.

All these points to hardware issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emjay911:
It is weird that the batteries drain when the phone is off.

Heck, even with only display off you should get even longer battery life.

But.... eight hours of battery life per day for the Gnex sounds "Normal" and "Right" to me!

If all three batteries are the same, than you should check the next logical step. Bigger Batteries.

Here is one from Amazon...

"Seidio BACY38SSGNLN-BK Innocell 3800mAh Super Extended Life Battery"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smeelious:
Hardware issue with the phone.

There is no way you should be draining a charged cell in 8 hours.

..this might be silly...but have you tried charging the batteries in the phone itself? (sounds like you charge them externally only)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] redstar427:
defective hardware

I agree that it is probably defective hardware.

When a device is powered off, the battery should drain very slowly.

It might still be helpful if we could see a picture of your battery stats.

Here is mine, and you can see my screen is taking most of the battery life.

Which is because I have it set for max brightness.

Anyone know how to disable Tablet UI while running ICS?

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] maek_it_happen:
If your rooted you can change the screen density to 180 or more ...the only thing is you'll have to run nova launcher or other launcher cause the stock will fc
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Romman0:
If by UI you are talking about the system bar. If you rooted you can use gesture control from the play store to make it hide. It works well, but some times reset the wallpaper but the dev has a simple fix in the description.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] cdkg:
Thanks for your input guys. I will change density and report back

Sent from my A100
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] cdkg:
unfortunately changing the density does not force cm9 into non-tablet mode. icons did seem to get a bit smaller but the phone-style navbar never showed up. I see there are a lot of threads on how to force a phone to use the tablet UI but nothing about getting a tablet to use the phone UI.

A toggle in the settings to enable/disable tablet UI would be awesome
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] maek_it_happen:
I did it on my a100 running flex .....when I did it I set it to 180 or 200 .....the stock launcher fc I then launched nova and bam the phone status bar appeared ....not sure why it wouldn't be the same in cm9
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] cdkg:
I just flashed Flex, what method did you use to adjust the density?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Rom toolbox offers density control and I know there's another in the market but I've never used it. Like density control or modder or something like that.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] maek_it_happen:
LCD density for ROOT is the app I used
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] MDMonster:
So, it works on cm9, but how do I get the on screen button for the phone UI????
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] cdkg:
I never did get this working :'(

Flex Rom: after I changed the density and restarted it gets tuck in a bootloop

CM9: density change works but the bottom Nav buttons don't show up

I'm gonna ask some one I know who devs for the Xoom and see what he has to say.

In the meantime if anyone has any concrete answers or recommendations please post.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] MDMonster:
Someone that is willing to try, can try to get us on screen buttons for the cm9 with this....

Tempting. I would love to get this working.

For some reason I don't really like the tablet UI on the A100.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
OK...I may be missing the point not here but let's see.

You want the phone status bar and pull down, right? But I assume keeping the nav bar at the bottom for back home recent and menu?

If so then yes the framework will need to be modded for it. Are you trying this for cm9 or stock or what, it'll be rom specific. I can see about doing it on cm9 but stock will have to wait until I reflash flex reaper.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] MDMonster:
That'd be win lol. Totally prefer ICS's phone UI lol
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] cdkg:
Pio, that's exactly right. I'm only interested for your CM9 builds

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
lol well while I appreciate that, I just build from source, the team is doing the hard work.

I'll see about getting it going on CM9, if I can get it figured out on there, it'll be pretty straight forward for stock based ROMs. Since flex reaper has so many mods, it may or may not interfere with those mods, meaning if you apply a mod, then apply the status bar mod, it may overwrite the FR mod. Make sense?

I managed to get a touch CWM working, so I have some spare time to throw at this too.

Nice! If you need a tester....

If you mean CWM Touch, nighth@wk also got one going, posted in the thread about that, I got mine going a few hours ago and PMed him the link, but my xda is all scrambled so I never made a post for it.

If you mean this status bar thing, sure no problem I'll put it up when/if I figure it out.

Guys I bought a HTC One X around 2 months back n I totally love it..love sense coz I came from Galaxy Note..now I have decided to buy Desire S for my mom as her first android device..

Can u guys help me n tell me that are there any issues with harware n build quality that I should check out while buying?..n how is this phone in general day to day use..it will be used mainly for calling n some browsing..NO gaming n all..so how is call quality n browsing experience?

Thanks :)

[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
Only problem on the phone is the dreaded WiFi death-grip and lower reception signal than other phones. This is based on my phone on stuck rom. Other than those.two mentions, the phone works perfectly well.
[HTC Desire S] LakshayX:
Thanks..WiFi death grip is a common issue with One X too but with One X it can be checked that whether the phone has a faulty WiFi antenna by pressing between the camera and volume up button..as soon as u press the WiFi signal goes down considerably..so is there any some sort of way to ascertain this issue with Desire S too?

Sent from my Stunning White HTC One X
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
With the Desire S, it's quite simply. You just have to cover your hands at the back cover (camera cover, the same as how you hold your device in landscape i.e. while playing a game) and presto, you should be able to notice your WiFi signal reduced significantly. As of now, no-one, either HTC or hardware mods have a fix for it..
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
I dun think the wifi death-grip would be an issue, how far could ur router possible be. Even being in my room upstairs and my wifi being downstairs i still have reception. But i am unable to connect to my neighbor's presumably because of the walls.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northantrim:
I find it quite annoying that the YouTube app (for tablets and phones) does not yet support the new comment replying system.

When reading comments on devices (since the @ system was replaced), it's hard to tell if a comment is:

1. A comment

2. A reply to another comment

..and if we can tell it's a reply, we then have to find who the reply is too.

Is there any news or info into whether or not there will be an update?

While you're here, what about annotations too?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogermorse:
BUMP

when watching interesting or instructional videos this thing is really uncomfortable... And there is no better app anyway.

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

Solved!!!

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

I recently upgraded to CM9... and when I rebooted I could not see the blue signal bars. All I get is the bars and a tiny "x" in the corner...? What went wrong is this normal? Is it a known bug? I checked cm9 features list and bug list but no mention of it there... No APN's either... I have to reboot constantly to get a signal.

Logcat on request
[HTC One S] hansthegeek:
Its a beta this could happen sometimes :) Are you running the newest radio?

Gesendet von meinem HTC One S mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One S] CubeCloudOS:
Yes I flashed several radios including the newest one but there seems to be no difference... When it does get a signal it either freezes when I use 3g/4g or if I try to reboot or power off when it doesn't get a signal it shows blue bars for a second then shows the "x" and my phone freezes up and reboots.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
CM9 has it's share of issues even for a beta imo

But, did you re-input your apn's

Otherwise, re-wipe all including System 2x. Re-download rom, check md5, reflash
[HTC One S] CubeCloudOS:
When I see APN's it doesn't show anything and I can't add anything either...

Tried aokp, cm9, and stock as well... wiped everything (cache, data, system, dalvik) and it only works on stock htc for some reason... Checked md5 for all they all fit except for gapps-2012412.zip but that can't be the problem right?
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
I doubt if gapps is issue

Have you read and posted on CM9 thread

This is a CM9 bug

Did you try toggling Airplane Mode
[HTC One S] CubeCloudOS:
I read cm9 development logs but it doesn't mention it there... I saw a similar post in aokp but it was not answered sooo... Oh and Airplane mode gets stuck. I have to reboot to get it to reset... Ahhh... well I guess its back to stock for me :( I'll wait until a beta comes out not alpha's :p
[HTC One S] hansthegeek:
I have problems with the radio too don't know if it is a baseband or rom issue. And btw its even an alpha ;)

[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
oh well the life of flashing

did you rewipe, redownload, reflash new download

try Zydroid or LeeDroid, very good and stable

you will need twrp recovery if you don't want to fastboot boot.img separate for those roms

[HTC One S] CubeCloudOS:
I use twrp and I rewiped and redownloaded cm9 but its still not working... and even worse is that it finds a signal for one second and in that time my email comes in ( I have lots of email...) and I hear a static noise... like tv static... and no its not my notification sound well thanks anyways... going to leedroid then.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
i think you will like LeeDroid
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
redownload and reinstall gapps...it includes the stuff required to connect to google services, i.e. make your icon blue.
[HTC One S] CubeCloudOS:
Worked Thank You!!! Now when it says please wait on First time setup it shows the bar and makes a beeping noise (connected sound, I guess).

Oh by the way, rugmankc, I really liked leedroid so I'm going to wait for a stable CM9, going back to leedroid :D I would recommend for anybody. No bugs at all as far as I can tell

If you're on a custom ROM and wiping from CWM Recovery, it will not wipe the virtual "SDcard".

If you're on stock ROM and doing something like unlocking the bootloader, wiping the device, it will wipe

everything

hi again:D

i have a problem with some games on my phone,for example i had installed ASPHALT 6 HD on my phone,the game runs well and it comes in its menu,but when the Race will start,the app jumps out! another is FRUIT NINJA!!!! when i start the game and start to slicing after 2 or 3 fruits,the game has been a force close alert!! i play the same asphalt on my defy very well! but in atrix 2 i dont know what is happening!

and about an app! 'titanium backup'

i had rooted my phone and installed CWM on it,but the app says:your phone is not rooted! whille i have super user and busybox installed on my phone!

would you help me?

thanks so much my friends :(

and the problem of games remains the same as before:( what i have to do?:(
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Not sure about the "missing" su or busybox apps not showing. But, if you had backed up your apps (games, whatever) and all app data with Titanium, you may have some corrupt files or goofy data that you're just going to experience every time you try to fxz to stock, OTA to 2.3.6., root, and re-install the apps and app data from Titanium. Try to fxz again, OTA, re-root, and only install the apps fresh from the Market without using Titanium for restoring app data... maybe, just maybe, that will solve at least that particular issue?
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
Your best bet to get rooted is to get back to stock, OTA to 2.3.6 then use the 2.3.6 one click root.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Black Metal:
no titanium backup does not run on my phone cause it errors your phone is not rooted! i have ME865 and im in Iran:( in iran we cant use google play store:( unfortunately its a very big problem for people who lives in Iran :(

you recommend me to flash a fxz? i searched in atrix2 forum abour that but the fxz files are for MB865 not ME865,i wanna know that does it matter?(i think its important) isnt there any fxz for ME865?

i upgraded my phone with ota to: 55.91.109.ME865.retail.en.05 (android 2.3.6)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Black Metal:
can u insert an address link of a stock rom for ME865 plz? :(
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Don't try this until someone else who can verify that this will work:

but you might be able to flash the China Retail return to stock fxz and then you may have to search for a language package to download for your native language to run proper. Since you don't have Google Play in Iran, not sure where you'd go to look for the language pack, but perhaps there are links here within the forum that could point you in the right direction. Again, DON'T flash this until someone can verify. But here is the China Retail version: http://4tel.mobi/edison_china_5.5.1-1_GC-86_EDSCHN-6_cfc_ME865_bbs.mfunz.com.rar

EDIT: Check this thread for your fxz, you will have better luck in finding your appropriate FXZ HERE...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Black Metal:
oh my god! Chinese language is very very hard for me to find whats going on on my phone :D i searched about availability of Atrix2,and i found that it is available in middle east,and i dont have any problem with english language to know,can u address a link of a stock rom in middle east,for example UAE stock rom,or israeil or jordan? they have the same ME865,Can you help me to find a stock rom from middle east plz? :confused:

edit: thank you so much for the link,im downloading it and i will report the results,i hope everything will goes well.and again thank you so much im so happy and hopeful now my friend :)

and so many things in UI has been changed,Fruit ninja plays well but asphalt 6...oh no its jumping out the same as before:( my phone is now rooted,and CWM is installed in it,do you recommend me to flash ROMULUS rom? cause i love Moto's UI and i need this powerful battery,in your opinion would this work solve my problem? (flashing a custom rom)
[Motorola Atrix 2] mtnlion:
Before you go any further, go into recovery and run fix permissions first.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I agree with mtlion, reboot into CWM Recovery, scroll down to advanced, the to fix permissions, then reboot system. See of that solves the FC's.-it should...

Edit: Romulus is a very nice rom, but its all in personal preference with roms and what's "the best". Every rom is different from the next, and each has its own look, feel, and tweaks. I'm using a slightly modified rom using netspeed tweaks and radio mods to suit my needs/wants. But, if you're going to flash a rom, be SURE to follow the installation instructions completely. Some are flashable zips while others are custom recovery images. :D
