[Atrix 4G General] nerfman100:
So? I'm sure a quick Google search of "Android phones with unlocked bootloader" would get very many phones.
[Atrix 4G General] consolation:
I actually agree with you. My post was in response to a previous one claiming that Motorola phones were inherently more secure because it was an American company. It would be, politically, a bad look to use a Chinese vendor. And, if you look at the history of military contractors, they charge top dollar.

I'm sure if I was to buy a million phones from Apple, they'd let me have an unlocked bootloader version. Obviously, there's no real proof for that, just an educated guess on my part. Or, more likely, you'd get an encryption key for your firmware. I suspect that the bootloader on the army phones is in fact locked. More than likely, moto just gave the army a signing key to use with their ROM. I don't think the military wants users to be able to access their phones for flashing. I'd make a bet that even fastboot, recovery, rsd etc is disabled on their firmware.

I own a One X for every day use, but I still use my atrix every day.

I don't have cable so I stream all of my TV through the webtop on my atrix (webtop still works best because of desktop firefox, ics is nice though) and it's connected to my DLNA from my desktop and I also have the lapdock which is the slimmest notebook.

I really can't wait for ICS to come to the atrix, for a 1.5 year old device it STILL hangs with the big boys. it's an amazing piece of kit

The new MHL adapter for the Galaxy S III supports both HDMI and USB OTG simultaneously, according to this article:

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/06/29/galaxy-s-iii-new-mhl-connector-also-enables-usb-on-go/

I'm wondering if this means it could be used for USB OTG with a flash drive while charging the phone at the same time--something that's impossible with current adapters and cables. And does it also work with the Galaxy Nexus? Does anyone happen to have the adapter and a GN to test this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kalavere:
My friend has an S3 and I know the 5 pin MHL adapter we use doesn't work with his because of the pin configuration, so I would assume if he can't get HDMI out using the 5pin, we won't be able to get HDMI out using the 11pin. Of course I am only guessing, but it makes sense to my mind. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danben7:
I don't see how it could work, to use the HDMI out you need the charger cable plugged in to the MHL adaptor. So where would the OTG cable go?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] woody1:
Looks to me like the standard S3 MHL adapter has a micro USB "charging port". Could be that it could also accept an external drive. I don't have the phone or the cable yet, so I can't test. Maybe somebody who has both could post results?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danben7:
it's not actually a charging port, it's a power port because apparently it needs more power to output HDMI, i.e. if you don't have the charger plugged in to the vacant port, no HDMI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stan.s:
Samsung does sell a bunch of dual head micro usb to usb cables.... so maybe you need one of those and they sell this: http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ET-R205UBEGSTA which says it allows you connect drives, keyboards, etc to S3's....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danben7:
Yeah those work, I actually use this one:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-USB-2...100-Note-i9220-Nexus-i9250-XOOM-/120894431890

or something similar, but you still can't use HDMI when you use those

you can however plug in keyboard, mouse, usb drive and anything else you want all at once which is cool
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stan.s:
Is that one on eBay compatible with the S3????? Isn't the pin out's different?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danben7:
only MHL is affected by the pins, usb OTG is not affected by the new layout
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] webDeWo:
Hello guys,

so, I'm currently developing a voice assistant for Android. It's in alpha stage for now, so I'm still looking for new resources, APIs, etc.

Google Now is here. The new Voice Search integrated with Now is really cool, but there's something, what interests me the most. After asking a question, keywords are automatically underlined. It's awesome, because it makes searching for an answer easier.

I've decompiled Velvet.apk from Jelly Bean. And I wanted to extract an "API" URL from there. But, unfortunately, I haven't found anything. I've also tried to read packets sent from and to this app, but everything goes through SSL. The only thing I've found is "google.com/generate_204" (which returns 204 No content) and "clients1.google.com" (search suggestions).

Have anyone tried to find this API? Maybe I was searching in the wrong file (but I'm sure I wasn't)?

Best,

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] CoBfan1987:
Is there a way to remove the "suggested" add-on's from Dolphin Browser such as Evernote, TrustGo, Phonegap, and Pocket?

They sure are cluttering up my stuff.

Or are those like ads and that's part of how Dolphin makes its money?

Any input would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sublimespot:
When I did use an play store browser I switched over to boat browser because dolphin started acting funny but now that we have ics I just use the stock browser because it does everything I need it to.

But when I did use dolphin browser I remembered that I was able to uninstall the plugins through the regular applications manager.

Also I just downloaded dolphin browser to check it out and it seems like it might be cross app promoting because the add ons aren't installed they are just available for download through that link

Ugh, this is a frustrating development. Dolphin is my favorite browser, but I'll abandon ship if I can't drop the fluff.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ringen00:
I find these 'default' add-ons too very annoying!

Giving me again the feeling of not owning my device . .

Of course I gave dolphin a try after realizing an enthusastic usership,

but now I'm starting to doubt the concept!

Gestures and voice could be nice but I would again have to learn

one technique to be able to control just one app . . .

Btw. the scrolling works nicer with the default or firefox - even chrome

is now giving me a better feeling.

To accept one Amazon bookmark in firefox is bearable.

Still I'm too curious how the default add-ons (especially the antivirus!)

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hadcook:
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help out with a little project I have been thinking about. With this being my first android phone I am still reading up and learning how to develop. In the mean time I was hoping I could get some help from the community. I do not see this as a project I will be taking credit for but more of a collection of work from anyone willing to help, or give me permission to use their mods.

I would like to create a fairly flexible aroma installer with a fair amount of options. Allowing users to really customize their ROMS on install with a couple of tweaks I have in mind.

I have looked into Aroma and sort of understand the coding but was really hoping one of the Devs could help me get a very basic package together as a start (I know most of them are busy on their own projects and roms so it may not be viable). Hopefully I will find some help and can update this post as the project grows (if it grows). If any Devs are interested in helping me start this project of could you send me a PM.

NOTE

As I said this isnt a project I plan to take credi for and will be giving ALL credit to anyone that contributes to me getting it off the ground and started. I will also try my best to donate to anyone who can assist where possible. I will update this OP as the project continues and hopefully once I have got it off the ground people could help build it with ideas.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tyie101:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hadcook:
I didn't want to annoy anyone by just starting to pm them asking for help especially since I am reasonably new at this which is why I thought I would ask for volunteers instead. I will reach out to the guy in the prime forum to see if he will help seeing he isn't developing for HoX. To get started I really need a simple installer with maybe 3 different screens one for selecting a rom (just the deoxed stock 1.85 for now), the one for theme (just the blue notification bar or none for now) and then one for mods (hopefully the dual core and oc mods). This will help me start the project.

Thanks for the advice.

I am in the process of checking with the devs to see if I may use their mods in the installer.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hadcook:
I was using his ROM for a while and liked his work, I will reach out to him but with him working on his ROM I wasn't sure if he will have time. I will check with him if I battle to get this started. Thank you :)

[HTC One X] Niiceg:
Hey, guys. I am having major problems with my One X. I have sent it three times to HTC, but still have some problems left. First of all, I had screen flex, bad battery life, wifi issue and etc., they didn't do anything first two times, but then they changed the glass and plastic. After all, they have damaged them. BUT, I still have bad battery life, heating problems and I think that WiFi issue is still there. My phone gets hot even after a couple of minutes of browsing or playing Temple Run. I don't think that is normal. I tried to install the ROM from RUU, but got errors.

What should I do? Should I ask for my money back and fight a couple of months, or is there any other choice?
[HTC One X] Mentu12:
Well, its hard to hear u got so much problems with awsome phone which HOX is but i also hope u got newest updated installed on ur phone ?? Problems u got was popular problems, but they got fixed in newest soft. Of course u can try to install custom rom, ARHD for example, its goot enough.

Edit:

In my opinion u got enough reasons to fight and get ur money back, this phone not working properly.
[HTC One X] Niiceg:
Well, I don't want to root and install them :) Yea, got the latest update. I really hate HTC now, because their service was a piece of ****. They did nothing two times in a row, but they scratched my phone, there were dust behind the glass and etc.
[HTC One X] Mentu12:
U shoudn't accept this when u was taking back ur phone. U can find guides how to root and install custom roms its pretty easy. I was scared too when i was try to root and install rom first time but rly evryone can make it ;)

Review: Rapoo E6500 bluetooth keyboard (written in Polaris Office w/E6500)

Ordered the Rapoo E6500 from eBay (seller name by request)(am not affiliated with the seller). Shipment tracking showed 2 days from Shenzen to San Francisco, then 4 more days to the Los Angeles area. Total cost was ~$50USD

Packaging was great, envelope was a watertight bubblewrap coccoon inside of which was another plastic bag around the boxed keyboard.

Pictures:

Bubble wrap: db.tt/10NloTOJ

Bag: db.tt/PDYz82QF

Box: db.tt/2ZFGBvD2

Keyboard: db.tt/NntCV3vS

Inside the box: the keyboard, a USB mini B cable and a manual.

The keyboard had just enough charge to pair - easy process although initially I missed that ENTER is required after the pairing code. I blame old eyes.

This version of the Rapoo is designed for Android in that the top row of keys (which double as Function keys) are hard-wired to: Home, Back, Search, Web, email, Rewind, Play/Pause, Fast Forward, Mute, Decrease Volume, Increase Volume, and finally, Lock.

At the bottom near the space bar is a Menu key which brings up the application menu.

I haven't figured out what the actual Function keys do or how to program them. In addition to F1-F12 there are FnPgUp, FnPgDn, Fn-Home, and FnEnd, all of which are handy to have.

Key action is good, F and J are embossed so touch typists can find them. Not being one of those I find myself adapting pretty well to the smaller layout but accuracy is not yet what I want.

Some quirks:

Del is right above Backspace but I don't find myself missing either often. Certainly hitting backspace a fair amount right now!

There is a Windows key; doesn't seem to do anything here.

The apostrophe and bracket keys are at the bottom right - I have to look to find them.

The unit is a sturdy steel tray with the logic board and battery bonded to the bottom back, giving it a wedge shape. The bottom front edge has little rubber feet. It has a power switch on the bottom and a physical connect button. So far it has auto-connected for me and so I haven't needed the connect button.

Best Feature: Build quality

Worst: CAPS LOCK - same gripe with every keyboard. Don't want it at all, especially doesn't need to be one of the biggest keys.

Will update with battery life information as it's learned.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] keithwwalker:
Thanks for your review.

I almost purchased the E6300 for my Note (E6300 is the Apple iOS version), and luckily I found your review.

My only concern with the keyboard is that is it too small?

The last keyboard I had for a portable was a Sony PEGA-KB100 for Clie. It was about 240mm wide when open. I felt it was an excellent design with scissor key action and the key to key pitch was just right for my hands.

Could you measure the letter key sizes, and the approximate pitch from key to key?

Do you know if the key switch actions are scissors design?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] vyruz1986:
Which version of Android are you using it with?

I have purchased the E6300 to use with my Nexus 7 (Android 4.1.2 stock) but I have to re-pair it every time i want to use it.

If I turn it off and then a bit later on again it connects just fine, but no key on the keyboard works.

I have this same problem on my Nexus 7 and my Droid 4 running 4.0.x

I have read reports from other people saying the keyboard used to work with Android 2.3 but having the same problem after upgrading to 4.x.

If you can confirm this keyboard works with android 4.x I will get mine exchanged.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] skd:
I have also Nexus 7 and E6300. Disconnect problems drive me nut!!! Should I exchange it to E6500? I just want to be sure that E6500 has no problem...

Regards.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] vyruz1986:
I got myself an E6500 and it works like a charm.

The keys tend to 'stick' if I have bluetooth mouse paired at the same time (e.g. pressing 's' results in 'ssssssssssssssssssss'), but this is more related to the Nexus 7 as it gets better or worse when switching between different kernels.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] skd:
Ok many thanks. I have sold my E6300 and bought an E6500 from ebay :)

Great game. I recommend an extreme mode. Where you can't touch the sides or bottom. Most of the time I sat on the bottom.

Maybe a portrait mode so that I can see more that is coming.

Also definitely needs a story mode. Every good android game has a story.

Great work, keep it up

Thank you so much for your feedback.

1. I really like the extreme mode idea. I think it will be added in the near future.

2. We chose to do a landscape mode (unlike every other falldown game) because it makes you react faster to the blocks (kind of like tetris where you do not reveal too much of the queue).

3. I agree that a good game needs a story; we will look for ways to incorporate that into the game.

downloaded the day you posted this thread for my galaxy S III, been playing it occasionally since then as it's a great time waster but I still haven't unlocked the new characters.. I think they unlocks should be scaled differently. Rather than be able to unlock 3 at once, unlock them progressively and make it so that even if you use the best character available, the cost of the next one means you still play for ages to get the upgrade.

EXAMPLE: Character one can theoretically collect 5 coins an hour. You want 5 hours of gameplay before unlocking the next character minimum, so you set the first upgrade to be 25 coins.

Character two can collect 15 coins an hour. You still want the 5 hours til upgrade to take place so you set the next character to cost 75 and so on..
