took the calendar from my i9000, didn't work

but found this stock calendar on the Play store

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.concentriclivers.calendar

Works perfect on Omega v6.0 and shows in the sync settings and syncs perfectly :-)

I'm trying to use my phones wifi hotspot for my computer, but I can't get into sites like gmail!

You attempted to reach gmail.com, but the server presented a certificate that is not yet valid. No information is available to indicate whether that certificate can be trusted. Google Chrome cannot reliably guarantee that you are communicating with gmail.com and not an attacker. Your computer's clock is currently set to Tuesday, January 1, 2002 12:27:12 AM. Does that look right? If not, you should correct any error the refresh this page.
You cannot proceed because the website operator has requested heightened security for this domain.

Same thing for facebook but it lets me proceed. I assume I'm just a stupid user that has a high security setting that doesn't know where to change it. Using AOKP build 39 6/23-03 build.

Looks like any HTTPS site I cannot connect to but any http site I can. Weird. Actually, I can get to google just fine... And that is https. But it would not let me into the google play store site without adding exceptions.

I had ICS on a different tablet and had no trouble using mtp with Linux either through the device mounter (KDE/Plasma) or just using mtpfs. With the Samsung 5113 though I "see" the MTP device but it times out. Here's an mtp-detect log:

Any ideas? Yeah, I know I can use sshfs and a variety of other ways to get to the device. Just wondering why MTP seems broken.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffm5150:
Bumping this thread ...

I recently upgraded to Fedora 17 and found that libmtp has a known defect that prevents the tablet from connecting. Perhaps you've got the same issue on your nonfunctioning system.

Did you ever find a solution? I now copy files to/from my tablet using scp.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wd5gnr:
No real solution. Like you, I use scp or ES Explorer or adb or some other mechanism.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffm5150:
I did a little more research this morning and got mtp to work between Fedora 17 and my 3113 tablet.

I did a couple things in total, although I'm thinking the 2nd one was the solution:

1) add vid/pid pair to my 51-android.rules file with 0755 permissions

2) disabled "USB debugging" under development settings. Apparently with that enabled, you can only move files with adb [push | pull].

Now I can connect my tablet to my Linux machine with a USB cable and create files/folders with the Linux file manager.

Hope it works for you as well. Copying with scp over wireless is pretty painful.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wd5gnr:
Ah. I do development so never thought to try that. I already have the machine in my udev files. Turning off USB debug did not seem to work. I went back and killed my adb-server (which I confess was running) and that still didn't work. May try everything again after a clean boot. But the symptoms were the same.

Still, might be something to it.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffm5150:
The MTP mounted device now seems to work but it doesn't really seem to be stable or fast. I can copy small files easily but large files really don't seem to copy any quicker than scp. I did successfully copy a 1.7GB mp4 movie without any problems but it took almost 20 minutes with mtp/USB connection.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wd5gnr:
Still can't get it to work. I already had the udev rules and turning off USB debug didn't help. We aren't the only ones with issues. Lots more detail here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1077377

Also gphoto2 has some success in reading info from the "camera" (for example, battery level) but I still can't get it to see any files.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffm5150:
Are you running a stock kernel? I'm running the kernel that comes with CM9. I wonder if that has anything to do with it. Thx for the thread URL. I would like to get a reliable wired transfer solution.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wd5gnr:
Well, I am semi-stock. It is the 4.0.4 stock with my own init.d add on and rooted. But yes, it is the stock kernel. I keep thinking of switching to CM9 but suspect it will cost me my IR blaster. I don't use it very often but I always think I will ;) But I know it is just a matter of time before I switch.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wd5gnr:
Even stranger. If you click on the USB options and pick PTP mode, your root directory of internal and external show up and gphoto2 sees it all. But all the subdirectories are empty! So close, but no cigar. gphotofs, as you would expect, sees the same thing.

Update: ok so here's an answer for ADB: https://github.com/isieo/adbfs

Doesn't handle symlinks but on the other hand you can get to the whole file system.

One thing though, adb MUST be on your path for this to work. The adbfs file can be anywhere and it doesn't matter if it is with the adb executable or not.

Hi all,

I have a friend who's wanting to get a prepaid plan for T-Mobile. he wants to get a phone from craigslist/ebay or those kiosks at the mall (phone unlok or something)

I've been told to not buy from craigslist since there is blacklisting going on and he can risk buying a phone and 3days later not working.

He wants to get the plan for T-Mobile..

Is there someone that can explain this to me, or the best way to get a used phone for a pre-paid plan? he wants internet and a decent big screen sized phone..

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Hello guys. I would like to hear some suggestions regarding this. So far I've tried CM7 and emanoN, but both of them drain like hell (specially CM7). Please avoid usual recomendations (turn off data, bluetooth, wireless and all those basic tips).

If there's an app, script or tweak that helps, please share it with me! My priority is battery life, above everything else.

Hope to get some replies! Thanks in advance :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] wtfshouldidonow:
Skipping all the basic tips, I suggest you use a pure source-kind of rom. Something like the MOre rom or Pure CM7 by mebitek or kittenlinux, another one is GingerMod. Battery lives one those roms are so far one of the most cheered for. CM9 Beta 7 also had incredible battery life, although the link is probably gone already as mirroring is not allowed by Maclaw. As for the scripts, some mini users find these annoying and just a piece of cr*p, but as for me, I really made sure that it wasn't just a placebo effect. SlaidyBoost v2.3 works well and am happy with the performance and battery life boost that comes with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Thanks for your comment! What about this one?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] wtfshouldidonow:
That one was originally made to improve battery life when you use wifi most of the time for browsing the net or such, but I can see that other tweaks have been added for an overall change, and based on the comments there, some users found their minis slow down a bit. Although I haven't tried it yet, it's best if you would simply flash the rom you chose to use, boot it up and set up the settings you want initially, then reboot to recovery, make a backup of that rom, then start experimenting with various scripts found here in XDA that is compatible with our mini. If you don't like the results, then simply restore the backup you made earlier. I'll try that script you told me about if I have the time, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] KoperKiller:
No, that ****ty script doesn't work.

I recommend you the stock ROM if you want battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] domcale:
Stock samsung rom has the best battery life. But, on official CM7 with 604MHz for max, 122MHz for min and ondemand cpu governor, i'm having good battery life, can't complain at all. Haven't tried stock rom for ages, maybe my current setup is even better :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Thanks man, but I don't think CM7 is the best option when looking for long battery life. I'm going to try de stock based ones and decide if any of them if better than the actual stock rom. Andro-ID, emanoN and GingerMod are apparently the most popular ones. Regarding the others, MORe is discontinued, so I wouldn't go for it, same as the one from kittenlinux. I'll give CyanMobile and mebitek's a try too! Trying GingerMod right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] domcale:
CM7.2 is draining battery fast because at default it's using Lil'GV2 governor which is veery agressive regarding CPU frequency! When you set it to ondemand it's much better. It costs you nothing to try it out if you haven't, stock rom is just too ugly and slowish when not rebooted regulary :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Installed GingerMod (smartassV2 governor) and overnight battery dropped 35%. That is definitely not normal, and happened with the other ROMs too! Can anyone help me identify the problem? :(

Edit: BTW, the phone is two weeks old, and when I first bought it I didn't experience this huge drain.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] taran181:
if u want good battery backup try andro-id ..it gives better backup then stock rom ..

TBH stock rom didn't work for me well especially regarding battery life. CM 7.2 official 710MHz/245MHz ONDEMAND battery lasts and lasts and phone is faster. Couldn't ask for more considering mini is entry level android phone for some time :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kirakun:
why dont u recallibrate battery after flashing ROMs:

1. Use app battery callibration from store, the developper is Nema i think.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Thanks, but I do that regularly, and as far as I'm concerned that doesn't improve battery life, just the accuracy of the % shown.

I appreciate it, but I'm not really familiar with indonesian language. Thanks anyway!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] genieass:
I think stock official CM 7.2 ROM does not contain the kernel. Can anybody please confirm?

On the pc, most of power management is by the kernel. Guess here too, we should look at kernel rather than the rom.?

I may be wrong though.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] boaxfux:
So, OP, which ROM did you settle for?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Still trying them. I'd say Andro-ID is the best until now! Unfortunately it doesn't support many languages, including mine (spanish).
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] snow:
Chaurigol and wtfshouldidonow, I saw you commented about my project. My project was created specially to achieve a good-battery life. I cannot guarantee that your phone will have great battery life, but you can give a try. Also, you can try my mod with Adrenaline Engine. If you want to try my mod, try to use my edited Adrenaline Engine (which will work with my battery mod):

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27664110&postcount=75

My phone (which is now bricked from suspicious reasons) had a great battery life, about 2-4 days. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Thanks man! I'll give that a try. What ROM and config where you using to achieve that? Sorry to hear about that brick.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] snow:
I used MORe version 1 (Update session 4) FINAL RELEASE and I edited some init.d scripts to be more smooth the ROM (and overclocked the processor to 710 MHz). If you want, I can share these with you (send me your e-mail address in private message). :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] boaxfux:
Cool. So, which version of Andro-ID did you like?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Chaurigol:
Only tried the latest (3.3.1). I'm on MORe now, seems promising. I'm doing a full charge to test its battery life.

Thread closed. There is little to no point of debating which ROM is better, just try them. It doesn't take that long.

is it true that page plus requires no hacking to have the dx2 put on their network?
[Motorola Droid X2] Merlin11:
page plus

Iam about to buy a Droid X2 and would like to know the answer to this question. Also what is the newest ROM I can use with this phone and page plus? Thanks :confused:
[Motorola Droid X2] CCC0180:
Droid X2 on Page Plus

Well I am not the expert but I will toss in my 2 cents. I have activated a Droid x2 (MB870) on Page Plus. I SBFed back to 2.3.4 (1.3.380.MB870.Verizon.en.US; Oct 11, 2011), rooted with auto DX2Batchroot_2013.v2.exe to apply Android JB 4.1.2 CM10-Alpha3 ROM by DZK.

I am very happy with CM10 right now; it works fine on Page Plus. JB 4.1.2 is a BIG improvement over 2.3 Gingerbread. With that said, I will not be trying out other ROMs for the time being, since I need a working phone.

All other ROMs to my knowledge require SBF back to 2.3.4 except Eclipse 2.3 so you might want to try it first if you are already on 2.4.5(418).

Other ROMs to consider:>> wwwDOTdroidxforums.com/forum/droid-x2-roms/

I am satisfied with my Droid x2 since it meets my needs. 1. G3 data to work on PP; 2. Android 4.x after flashing; 3. Great display with guerrilla glass and not too big to fit in my pocket.

Cons are the Nvidia Tegra 2 GPU on it. The Tegra 2 will not be supported anymore so there is no upgrade to 4.4 KK. XBMC v13 will not work on it either. CM10a3 is in Alpha state and further development on it is iffy. Some have said the video does not work well but I have not experience this. There is a slight shutter when selecting videos from the list, but they played well for me.

If you decide to purchase I will be glad to give you tips I compiled since I just did this Mar 2014.
[Motorola Droid X2] Merlin11:
bought it

Ok I bought a new " overstock " Droid X2 it should be here next week. What program do I use to flash this phone? I don't understand "SBF"? Thanks for the help.:good:
[Motorola Droid X2] CCC0180:
System Boot File - SBF

SBF is the System Boot File, an image which restores the phone to its factory state. The latest from Motorola is 2.3.5(1.3.418.MB870.Verizon.en.US; May 8,2012) which is Moto’s Droid x2 version of Gingerbread 2.3 and will probably be what is on your phone. All custom ROMs except Eclipse v2.3 use the earlier Moto release 2.3.4 (1.3.380.MB870.Verizon.en.US; Oct 11, 2011).

I’m curious, how much did you pay for your Droid x2? I took a gamble and picked mine up used, but was very pleased with its condition. I am considering picking up another for cheap :cool:.

Rooting and installing was not hard but I spent a lot of time researching finding much of the info dated. Droid hacks were pretty popular in the day so there is much content, but it has shortcomings, so many have moved on. For a 3G phone, which is what I needed, I could not find any better one. My CM10 install did hit a bump by continuously installing with an infinite loop on boot; that cost me some time. I think my fix was to wipe my data in addition to cashe; the first couple of tries when I got the loop I just cleared cashe.

There's some really good information on the Droid x2 in this forum and others. RootJunkyDOTcom seems to be up-to-date and gives good step by step instruction so I suggest checking it out. sd_shadow is another good source to Google. I have other links that I would include but since I am newly registered, I can’t until I have at least posts.
[Motorola Droid X2] Merlin11:
Thanks

I paid $74.09 shipped on ebay. Seems like a fair price. Thanks for the info. My phone should be here on Wednesday. I think Ill go with a 4.1.1 rom. Thanks again.

BSR causing loop after CM10a3 install

To Merlin11 and dukkha2:

sd_shadow is one of the Titans on the x2 forum. His links are very current and exhaustive. I hope will monitor this thread over the next few weeks as to assist in flashing the x2. I will follow up with my notes on rooting and flashing CM10a3 tomorrow.

To sd_shadow:

I could use advice on a problem I have with BSR. After flashing CM10a3 I have installed the Patched BSR so I can backup my ROM and I try experiment with the softkey zip mod. BSR shows up as "CM7 System" on my apps screen so I know I have the patched version; however, I get a boot loop of the Moto Boot screen anyway. I have tried installing the other ordinary BSR (shows as System Recovery on the apps screen) but this causes the same infinite loop at the Motorola boot screen.

The loop only occurs when I have the usb charger plugged in to my x2 telling me the problem is the BSR. I am able to recover by pulling the battery and rebooting without the charger. I booted into Motorola's Recovery and wiped the data and cashe. This did not solve the loop issue. I was going to try wiping the Dalvik also but I don't know what this is or how to wipe this.

I have seen your CM10 hijack-boot.zip instructions and considered try this fix. I have not loaded this fix yet because when I compared the etc/hijack-boot.zip on my phone with the one in the hijack-boot.zip file they have the same MD5 which implies CM10a3 already has the updated hijack-boot.zip patch.

Any suggestions?
[Motorola Droid X2] sd_shadow:
that should be correct, only one patched that I know of, it's the original cm7 bsr.

You followed instructions and used files posted here? Concise guide to getting CWM working with cm10 A3

and verified the roms md5 before installing, I know that the original Dev-Host file download, failed for many people the first try.

---------- Post added at 11:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 PM ----------

You will need to downgrade to 2.3.4, before installing CM10, see my How To Flash a SBF Using RSD Lite

or

ezSBF DX2 4.5.1.iso
[Motorola Droid X2] CCC0180:
Installed patched BSR successfully

I missed these instruction for how to install the patch when searching; much appreciated. There are many pages in the CM10 thread, I think the link to the Concise patched BSR should be added to the CM10 instructions in #1 as a final step so users can backup with CWM.

Your link to SBF to 2.3.4 would also be a good addition.

Another addition would be a link to re-calibrate the battery stat mine I screwy right now. It shows 100% then drops to fast. I am researching this.

Everything else is working splendid!

CM10a3 notes for a successful custom x2

dukk, I just redid this whole upgrade in about 30 min so don't fear it. I can't leave url links but if you google or search in xda on the quoted words you should be able to find the links and files. sd_shadow's links above are very good. Also check out wwwDOTrootjunkyDOTcom.

1. downgrade to 2.3.4

-Follow sd_shadow in response #8 and #10 above.

-don't sweat using the latest RSD, 5.4, 5.6, or the latest 5.7 will all do the job. Just make sure you load the USB drivers first and your phone is connecting to your PC

2. root

-I have been using "DX2Batchroot_2013.v2.exe". try Googling it. It will automatically install BSR you need for ROM install.

-There is a video using the file above but it is for 2.3.5. It doesn't matter, the procedure is exactly the same.

3. Download CM10a3, gapps, softkeys, patched BSR apk, and patched hijack-root.zip files and put on your External SDCARD

-CM10a3 rom

-gapps ("gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip")

-optional softkeys (search "CM10DX2-A3-softkeys.zip")

-patched BSR and hijack-root.zip >>> checkout sd_shadows response #10 above (don't install until #5 below)

4. Install the first 3 zip files in #3 using BSR CM10a3 rom ("cm-10-20130113-UNOFFICIAL-daytona"), gapps ("gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip") and optional softkeys (search "CM10DX2-A3-softkeys.zip") but you must load BSR only after you wipe data

-Make sure you follow the instructions.

-You must wipe data AND cashe or it will hang on the start screen.

5. Load patched BSR along with replacing hijack-root.zip in the /etc folder so you can create a Backup using the patched BSR

-This is spelled out in the link in response #10 above

-you will need a Terminal app. There are free ones in Google Play.

-wipe data and cashe again

6. Load optional apps and backup again.

-I have a battery calibration issue. Check out "Battery calibration (New method?)" in wwwDOTdroidxforumsDOTcom for a fix

-There is a fix to Facebook videos in xda x2 forum.

Good Luck! You really can't brick this x2. SBF can recovery any hack you do. I messed up yesterday and replaced the patched BSR in CM10 with the ordinary one. I don't recommend this! It locked me out of my phone and I couldn't recover. I had to re-SBF. I did get to test the backup I created with BSR and it worked well.

[Motorola Droid X2] sd_shadow:
looks like it is build with the same source as cm10, so it will have similar problems.
