[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcuno:
Maybe this topic is somewhere, but for me this is a new language, and my hard time distinguishing this and not what I need, which is why I ask for help.

MY PROBLEM:

Hi I have the desire rooteada (1 month ago) and the official ROOM 06/03/2012 supernovaextreme.

Since this afternoon there is no way to boot.

It seems the problem is q does not take cover.

When I boot puts on many occasions

"sorry

The process ... is broken ..... force close "many times and with different programs, it ends up in a kind of loop q is not completed.

This had happened once, when being without coverage of Orange, my operator, pulled the phone.

Now I have insurance coverage and I keep going.

Somewhere I saw that counsel have the latest radio.

You can change the radio in these circumstances?

Having changed the ROOM, and the current situation that will not start, as you can start to "factory"?

I bought another SD and change?

I can do?

thanks

[Verizon Droid Charge] DROlD:
While I was using my phone I had a random hot boot which never happens on this rom and when the phone came back on it deleted the stock contacts app. I restarted and still gone. Any suggestions on what happened?

Sent from the blow hole.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
So it's gone as in it no longer exists in /system/app?

Are you using a theme? Any recent changes/theme flashes that you've done? By using your phone do you mean you were on a call or you were just interacting with it? If interacting - what were you doing? If on a call - were there any precursors to the hotboot? And by hotboot you mean it cut directly to the boot animation, correct - i.e. no samsung? What kernel are you using?
[Verizon Droid Charge] DROlD:
Yeah its gone all that's there that's similar is contact storage. Im using core droid for the theme and I've been on the theme for about 5 days from ice theme. I think at the time I was either on youtube or a game not sure and yes it cut directly to animation, stock kernel.

Sent from the blow hole.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Well I've heard that this happens from time to time on that theme - but I could not tell you why that would be the case. Best approach would be to just reflash the theme when it happens and all should return.

I took some time to update all the themes (not posted yet) for tweaked to work with the newest update (also not posted yet), and in that process I updated some things in that theme in particular which will HOPEFULLY make this no longer happen. We shall see I suppose.
[Verizon Droid Charge] DROlD:
Yeah ill just try and reflash it. Thanks for the input.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] whosgotlag:
Hey guys sorry, I googled around and found tons of hits for 'you can back up market links with this'

But I can't find anything that explains what this actually does, whether using Tit Backup or Rom toolbox, do I want to back up the market link as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
Not sure what you mean by backing up the Market Link. Using Titanium Backup will back up all of your apps and reinstall them (if you choose) so that they can still be updated through the Play Store.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] whosgotlag:
ROM toolbox has several options for app backup. You can backup apps, data, apps and data, and and apps + data + market link. I have no idea what market link means.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] quordandis:
Not entirely certain myself, but I suspect it has something to do with being able to link your download to the app's link on the google play store (FKA Market). As opposed to apps that have been installed via sideloading that don't necessarily have a link to the app's page on the market... Again, not sure...just a stab at a guess...

If you click here and read step 7, it hints at what Market Link does: http://www.titaniumtrack.com/kb/titanium-backup-kb/titanium-backup-user-guide.html#backup
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] junglizste:
Does this phone not support USB mass storage mode?

I went through the option and I couldn't find a way to do standard USB mode. Only media player or digital camera mode.

Media player mode is close, but it's a lot less standard than mass storage mode.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] altitude909:
I just use MTP, mounts the internal and SD card as drives in windows. Dont know what that difference between that and USB mass storage is
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] zmore:
MTP support under linux really blows, which is why I still use USB MassStorage mode. I'll give MTP another chance, though, because I've upgraded Fedora since last trying it.

The main differences between the two are that MTP allows your phone to hide the underlying filesystem of the storage (fat32, exfat, ext4, ...), and makes it transparently available to your PC while the phone is still able to use it too, whereas in Mass Storage mode each device (internal & external) gets mounted as an actual filesystem (that your OS has to understand).

Mass Storage is much faster too.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nakedninja42:
When the phone is plugged in, you can click on connected as media device in notifications. It use to be that you can disable MTP this way, but when I select to turn it off, the MTP box it stays checked. I don't think there is a way to disable until we get custom ROMs. We need the USB Mass Storage option back under settings>more settings
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] junglizste:
Yeah, normally you can go > settings > storage > menu button and select your USB mode from there... This does nothing on the the GS3.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] zmore:
There's a two-line hack in the international forum that'll let you enable MassStorage mode, but it reverts back to MTP after reboots. Yeah - hopefully this'll be an option in the first batch of ROMs released.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nakedninja42:
Interesting, I'll be looking for that. I was thinking it had to do with build.prop to stay persistent but I didn't see it in the quick glance I had.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] araemo:
Interesting.. I didn't think it would be possible, but it looks like that covers the bases - manual unmount in the phone, export the lun to USB mass storage, and then undo both at the end..

Edit: That's external SD only.. I mean, great, but do note that.

The internal sd is ext4 formatted, and I don't know if you can unmount it while the system is running (Which is why UMS mode wasn't on by default)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] plaut:
This doesn't work for me (rooted, stock ROM), nor does editing /data/property/persist.sys.usb.config directly (which makes the change permanent on an SGS2). Interestingly, USB OTG (on-the-go) does work, and it uses mass storage mode, so it's not like the phone isn't capable of it.

[Edit: neither /dev/block/vold/179:17 nor /sys/devices/platform/s3c-usbgadget/ exist on the device - does anyone know the alternatives to use?]
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] araemo:
You may be able to guess at what /dev/block/vold/179:17 would be on the US variant by looking at the output of 'mount'. You may then have to cross-reference what that gives you with some sysfs info or symlinks in /dev..

s3c-usbgadget would be a feature of the quad-core Exynos SoC, based on the S3C in the name - that's a samsung chip naming convention. For the Qualcomm equivalent, the kernel source code is probably your best bet.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] plaut:
Thanks - looks like /dev/block/vold/179:97 is the external SD.

The only directory in /sys/devices/platform/ that contains gadget/lun0/file is msm_hsusb, but a) I'm pretty sure that's involved in hosting USB (e.g., OTG) and b) it doesn't seem to work when substituted in the relevant command. I'll keep looking....
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] rushless:
That is one nice thing about the ICS update for the Razr, since default to mass storage mode and you can also choose MTP.

I will miss this on the Razr. I thought Android team said this will not work? Works great and just as good as with Gingerbread.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jefbal99:
I was wondering why we've never seen a TWRP build from TeamWin for the TF101. I remember when the tablet came out that a few team members had the device and there was talk of builds upcoming for our device. Then there was the long break and TWRP2 and everything that happened at TeamWin, finally with 2.1 builds showing up. But there was nothing for our device, while the TF201 and TF301 were getting love.

I pinged dees_troy on twitter and found out some interesting info:

The Recovery Partition is only 5MB on the TF101

The Kernel needs to be less than 3MB to leave enough room for TWRP, meaning a custom recovery kernel.

Without a device in a devs hands, we'll not see TWRP :(

https://twitter.com/Dees_Troy/status/216631211366424576

https://twitter.com/Dees_Troy/status/216631556863836160

If I didn't rely on mine daily, I'd send it over for some builds, but that is not feasible for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdeeble:
Maybe we can get a developer to notice and build this, because I'd love to see a refined touch recovery like TWRP. I mean with the kernel though, how big is it with a stripped down version of it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Darn shame about the partition sizes, those can be moved around.. but that's not a really great fix. I'd compile it and do a tad of bug-fixing since it should be the same process, but I really don't want to mess with partition sizing being too small and stripping recovery down. X.x

I've asked before and pm'ed about being a tester, and if it happens I'll be on top of it!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdeeble:
See, that's one thing Moto did good with their phones. I would have no issues with partitioning being similar, but I think they did go a little over board on what the system got versus what the consumer should be able to use for storage, IMO.

If there was a guide and I knew I could do it without creating to much headache trying to get it right, then I'd start on a similar project. My biggest problem is, I don't know very much about this at all. The last time I did any programming, I was in highschool and was learning C++ and did some PHP coding, but that doesn't apply here. HaHa.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
TWRP has a step by step compile from source linux guide :P

Just the partitioning, I think it would work straight from source pretty well, but considering that the partition is too small that's where it gets tricky
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jefbal99:
just build it and see what the size is then we might be able to engage one of the kernel devs to help strip stuff out

Sent from my CM9 Transformer TF101 using Forum Runner
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Alright, I'll compile from source and see what I can do. Give me a while though, because I'm upgrading my computer.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jefbal99:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hammerfest:
Im also eagerly awaiting any news on this... Im stuck on Rogue recovery because all the other versions dont use the MicroSD card, only the internal memory :(

Can someone post where I can find the partition layout/structure/description? (or PM it to me, that woul work as well)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jefbal99:
Looks like rayman has taken the reins on this one. There is a thread in dev for a WIP TWRP recovery
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Yep he mentioned it and took over, which is great! Works decently well.

I am having problem installing busybox-1.18.2 :'(

Busybox installer shows error cuz I don't have good network (in Bangladesh we only have 2G and no Wifi in my area too)

I have busybox-1.18.4 installed but I need busybox-1.18.2 so that I can supercharge my Neo 4.0.4 (here is the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1704268&highlight=supercharge).

can anyone tell me how can I install busybox-1.18.2 with Flashtool or titanium Backup?

Download BusyBox Installer from Google Play. You have a free and a pro version. It gives you options to install whatever version you want. I would recommend buying the pro version as it gives you loads of options. Cheers.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjames426:
What is the difference between s-off and s-on? And what are the benefits of this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
s-on : stock..security on, locked bootloader, can't do much, no custom roms

s-off : rooted, security off, able to change boot animation, splash screen, custom roms, ect
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
This is a bit of an oversimplification.

With the HTCDev method, the device can be "UNLOCKED" while still S-ON. That allows custom recovery, ROMs, & kernels to be flashed.

"S" simply stands for "Security," as in the status of your phone's NAND Flash memory. When security is enabled (S-ON), some or all of the partitions on the device are locked, i.e. they cannot be altered with an unsigned image file. Only a file signed with HTC's security certificate will be allowed to update a locked partition. This is typically fine for most users that just want to use the stock firmware, or that feel comfortable unlocking with HTCDev.

When security is disabled (S-OFF), unsigned image files can be used to update any device partition. This allows firmware such as bootloaders and radios to be flashed without having HTC's signature on the file. This allows the most flexibility, but also allows devices to be more easily bricked by flashing the wrong thing (I've done this a few times).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Indeed it was a major over simplification. I do appreciate your more elaborated explanation. I read it more as a 'why should I root' question, and they weren't looking for anything in particular.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mavman42:
I considered s-off to be for developers, my security is on and enjoy flashing different things without turning the security off.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjames426:
Thanks, I am rooted and I frequently flash roms, haven't gotten into flashing kernals yet, but I like to know everything about what I am doing.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] scottx .:
So what is everyone's thoughts?

Check out the specs:

7-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1280x800 and a 178-degree viewing angle

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean

1.3Ghz quad-core Tegra 3 processor

nVidia GeForce 12-core GPU

1GB of RAM

8GB or 16GB of internal storage

1.2 MP front-facing camera, no rear camera

NFC with Google Wallet

Android Beam

Battery life estimated at 9 hours

They say it will be $199 to $249. That's the same and cheaper than we paid for our GT7's.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Harry_Y:
Nice, I could always give my wife my Galaxy Tab 2 7"

and get a new tablet for myself, win win
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] crimson12:
I'll probably end up returning my tab to Costco and getting this. Maybe I have a lemon, but the screen's touch response has been pretty frustrating and I'd rather just not deal with it anymore.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] stranxk:
Just looking at the specs i think it will be a good deal, BUT some bad things in my opinion are:

Nvidia..

Resolution, i own the 7" with 1024x600 and all the web sites fits perfectly on the screen when in landscape mode, with 1280 you will have some extra empty borders making the fonts somewhat smaller without any browser tricks, higher resolution to me is equals to more detailed but smaller things

Hope it haves gps...

This is not confirmed but it seems it will be asus, after reading some feedback about them i dont think they are a good choice

In my opinion the better things are:

Jelly bean

Nexus, it will have a lot of dev and google support

A quadcore, i think i dont need it since i rarely play games on my tablet.

Nfc, i dont have any use for it but someone will...

Im not talking about battery life because we all know all manufacturers lie.

I will look closer at the nexus 7 forums, and maybe i will sell my tab and get it but i dont think so
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] miketoasty:
I was kind of disappointed when hearing this, but I have really gotten over it. To fit those specs into that price range they are going to have to skimp on a lot of other stuff. Also, the Quad core won't do much as Android doesn't really use all 4 cores unless you are doing benchmarks or playing one of Nvidia's games.

The only real advantage that has is the screen, but who know's the quality of the screen, also for a 7" tablet I would rather have the lower resolution.

The only thing I really see for this tablet is the dev support, which after getting a fully functional CM9 port, I don't really care too much as that is probably the only thing I would run on it anyways.

Finally, I just came from an Asus tablet and while I loved the thing it did have a good bit of flaws and a lot of angry customers. My ASUS laptop works great but I guess that doesn't carry over to their tablet division.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] rcatron:
Keep in mind that this is an Asus built unit - don't get too excited. My Tab 2 7.0 browses better than my Prime.

Google is going to regret the day they partnered with Asus... Check back in about 4 months...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Kiersten_Kress:
Count me as one of those "angry" former Asus customers. Two laptops and one

tablet, all gave me nothing but headaches.... I am a very understanding person

and I know electronics can have defects. However, Asus was absolutely terrible

when I tried to get the products fixed under warranty. It was a painful and slow

process. Not to mention that their customer service reps seemed to trained to

ask 20 questions and expect detailed answers before approving a warranty

repair request.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] pinoymutt:
I thing I'm curious about is whether or not it will have the ability to use external SD cards. Since this is a reference device, and if you look at the Nexus phones they don't support them either.

Since my Tab is now my primary travel companion for long international trips for movies - that's a huge negative in my book.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] imnuts:
I see the pros being the display, price, and development support. Outside of that, the rest of the specs seem in line with the Tab 2. Who is going to use NFC and Google Wallet from a tablet? Unless Google Wallet becomes more like Passbook, it's going to be useless as I would think you would need an internet connection, and how awkward would it be paying with a 7" tablet?

The CPU could be a plus for them, but it may also affect battery life having more cores. The Tegra 3 looks like a fairly solid SoC, but as others said, quad-core isn't going to do much for a while, if ever, as most stuff that would tax the system will have stuff offloaded to the GPU as you are likely gaming. The lack of a rear camera isn't huge IMO, as I never use the cameras on my tablet now.

Cons I see are the low price point as well. It's great to have a cheap tablet, but what did they cut back on to get it cheap? I also see no mention of GPS, WiFi, or Bluetooth, so who knows what it has there. I think that the Galaxy Tab 2 having hardware very similar to the Galaxy Nexus is a benefit to us, as we can more easily get AOSP working that way. It will have problems, as the builds do now, but until more details of the Nexus Tablet are released, I still think the GTab2 is a great device.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Kiersten_Kress:
I sincerely hope Google won't make the same mistake twice. (first one was

when it left out a microSD slot in my Galaxy Nexus phone) A tablet without

microSD slot is about as useful as a paperweight... or I can just get a KF. :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] scottx .:
Haha no doubt. I had a kf for a few days and hated not having a slot.

The galaxy nexus doesn't have one? Wtf? Really?

I doubt it has GPS. It doesn't even have a rear camera.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Kiersten_Kress:
I've had my Galaxy Nexus since December. The #1 thing that I hated

was the lack of SD slot. :( (otherwise, it was a cool phone)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ryanscool:
I just got my gtab 7 today. Its great! Was thinking if the asus,but i love my tab with ir blaster. Glad with my choice.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] miketoasty:
I don't mind the no sdcard slot on my phone but on a tablet that is just unacceptable.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Hipster Dashie:
This will be the differentiator for me. If the Nexus 7 doesn't have an SD slot then I'll get the Galaxy Tab 2. No SD card is just unacceptable.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] HB_Mosh:
I think our GT2 will kick that Asus Tablet's ass.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ryanscool:
+1. I bet for that asus to get to that price point wont have a micro sd card slot and back camera. To me the gtab is all i need, as browsing is so darn fast. I dont read ebooks, but for regular tasks this is quite fast.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] yuckymucky:
I have never used the camera on my gtab, however I just can't see a tablet that doesn't have a SD slot, but if it doesn't that would be the deal breaker.

I really like my gtab, a lot more now with CM9 on it, so when the Nexus 7 hits it will be a tough decision.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] dacooter:
I Really Hope this is a real device that will be released for that price! The issue is I will be kicking myself in the face because I just bought the Tab 2.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Metallice:
Honestly glad I didn't buy this tablet. It was a gift so no regrets :/ I'm happy with it regardless.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nam265:
+1, I was thinking about selling my GT2 to get N7 but you really made good points.

To be profitable at $200, they have no choice but to cut off GPS , rear camera, and microSD slot.

microSD and GPS are the deal-breakers for me as well. Without the slot, it can't entertain my friends/family on road trip. Without GPS, i have to use my phone... and its tiny screen for directions.

If the Nexus 7 fulfills all the features needed, I doubt it'll be a public release device but rather a dev gift for all attendees at IO 2012 only.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] delmar2005:
Apple may make a 7" tablet with possibly a retina display.

I would rather wait for the apple.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Kiersten_Kress:
in that case, why not just get a Samsung Galaxy 2 Tab 7.7 with SuperAMOLED

display for $699?(or $599) :) It will be way better than the retina display.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] delmar2005:
That would cost more than the 10" 16gb ipad.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] steev-p:
Well, I couldn't resist the temptation and I just dropped $250 on the 16 GB version. Don't judge me :p

The lack of a microsd slot was almost a deal breaker for me, but the tegra 3-optimized games and updates directly from Google made me buy it. Hopefully I don't regret it :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] matt30:
Well, looks lke im buying a second tablet.

I'm trading an IR blaster, rear facing camera, and expandable memory for a better processor and andriod 4.1.
