[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatZ69:
Hello people, i have a few problems compiling some .apk's

I want only to hide the spareparts from my launcher, and to put a entry on settings.apk...

So far so good, i followed the knowed steps, but when i made a clean install, like put the apk in the rom, i got FC. But if i do a patch for it, it works very well.

I want to make it like a system apk, and i dont want to install through a patch.

Can you help me to find the error?

I only changed the "AndroidManifest.xml" to hide it from the launcher.

If you have any idea please help me :)

Thanks

Hi guys. I get new ICS firmware pack directly from the OEM, but when i first try to upload it into the device using Odin 1.85, the device got corrputed.

It can only boot up in flash mode (which means is not completly wroken), and the model displayed there is P7560 and the flasher counter changed to 1.

Of course the rest of the flashing process has failed several times.

After contacting the OEM for support, they had created a custom PDA section for my problem, and the flashing went fine, but now the device is not recognizing the touch of my fingers.

They told me that, somehow, the first firmware package has corrupted the boot.bin (where the kernel information is), and they have to recover it with some secret process they are not allowed to share.

Does any one have a clue what they are talking about????

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
yes and no.

first can you can you kindly share more info about getting the ICS firmware leak? We dont want to get anyone in trouble, etc. just curious. Are you sure it wasnt someone playing a cruel joke?? GT-P7560 is a Tab Plus w/3G 32GB if not mistaken the GT-P6200L is 16GB.

What did you mean by "he created a custom PDA section for you"?

As for the "secret process", could be a number of things. Could be reinstalling touchscreen firmware or a new boot.bin, which arent incredibly secret. Most likely he probably just wants to reset your custom flash counter binary(and perhaps a second hidden secret counter as well, that supposedly counts how many times your 1st counter has been reset..if such a thing exists). There is an app by @ChainfireXDA which will reset your custom binary count(dispayed in Download Mode) on ICS.

Please keep us up to date on any new findings.

Well I think this *unofficially* officially confirms someone from Samsung is /actually working/ on this update.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] pepelacua:
Hi there. I am 100% sure it was not a joke. I get this firmware from someone inside the company. Don't want to give more details about that for not burn anyone

That person didn't know much about what he was giving to me, so he putted me in touch with someone more in engeneering enviroment, for his language.

They asked me for some details, and after that they sent me the file i mentioned before. I flashed the tablet and it came back to life, with its limitations on the touch, and i can not do anything with it

I suggested this idea of reseting the counter, the same way we did for the I9000 for example, but they told me that because of that mismatch of models, that won't be possible.

Do you know how to run that program from download mode? or recovery mode?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
so after giving them your details they gave you this mismatch firmware. yikes.

would it be possible to share the leaked package they gave you? I dont want anyone to flash it, just the devs to have a look.

worst case scenario : they look at it and says its total rubbish.

best case scenario.. they fix camera and wifi, etc...

It may be possible to reset flash counter from recovery mode using a script.

If we knew about their secret process, it wouldnt be a secret. Obviously more than just Odin though.

They didnt happen to whisper any release dates did they?

thank you.

edit: this post proves its possible... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1578184

however he is doing a raw write which is very dangerous, using an untouched secondary bootloader.

It may be even easier using a script, Chainfire's method knows the location of this variable, and just changes the number. I would try it that way if I had to.

can you give me the converted software for p7560, because i didn t find anywhere. I want to try that,because my tab dont want to start.

...he linked to a file that was ripped out of the SDK and uploaded by someone else. He didn't compile it from source or anything. While that's nice of him to link to it here (I guess), it really doesn't belong here.

"Development" forums are pretty self-explanatory; if you made it, it goes here. If you didn't make it, it doesn't go here. We might sometimes be dicks about it but that's usually only because of how confident OPs feel about the fact they're perfectly within their right to put things like this in this section.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
Honestly don't think it has to do with age :p some people are just like that. I can see the confusion between posting here and Dev forum since the original thread was posted in dev forum. Someone corrected OP, now he knows. Lets just move on.

I have had the Google Now for two or three days now and even though it doesn't have Voice, I prefer it over the default search. Before if you wanted to search for something on the web you had to search and then tap on the result and it would open it on your web browser. This actually opens it up right away inline within the app without having to open a web browser. You can then select images, places or your own phone. I think people that are looking away from it simply because it doesn't have voice search should give it another look. Between the cards and the inline searching, it's obviously better.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
use mx video player [the free version which has ad's] and select specific file folders for the app to read from. that way you will only have to go through the videos you specifically want to watch.

the only difference between the free and paid is ads versus no ads.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bladestar X:
I just updated my NT to CM9 (Alpha 0.05.1). When I downloaded the game, I started off smoothly, but when I started to play, the touch screen just went crazy and would select stuff from random places all over the screen, including the CM9 menu bar at the bottom. Can someone tell me how it works on their NT or the nightly versions of CM9? This is very frustrating and also sometimes happens on other apps too, but mainly Blood & Glory.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
lack of hardware acceleration might be the cause. the cm9 alphas isn't really suited for high level gaming or h/w accelerated video. that will have to be done using the 3.0.x kernel with cm9 when its perfected.

i would think the nightly builds could work, but of course u need to deal with the random reboots, SOD's etc...

Hello,

Update: For solution see my last two posts here.

today I installed the current nightly from here: http://defy.wdscript.fr/defy-cm9/

on my red lens defy (standard, not plus) along with the CM7 kernel.

Before I had CM7.1 on it. Now I cannot connect the phone via USB anymore. Nothing does happen. The settings are all correct (usb debugging enabled etc.).

Could someone recommend a CM9 build for the red lens defy which has working usb mass storage/debug ? I would rather not want to test 100 builds for working usb :S

Thanks in advance!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pekempy:

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdlr:
It does charge via USB on PC and via USB on power adapter. This is not the problem. The problem is, that except charging nothing happens when I connect the phone to the PC. No notification where I could choose portals/mass storage etc.

No hardware popup under windows. On the PC I have Motorola drivers which were working fine with CM 7.1 just before.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brajesh.sharma87:
check in /system/app if Usb.apk is present or not?

generally its there in all cm9 build. ur case is strange.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdlr:
Yes it is there.

Should the same usb drivers that worked for 7.1 still work under 9.x?

Edit: I updated the motorola drivers and nothing changed.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdlr:
Also @pk92:

Which build are you running, maybe USB just doesn't work in the most recent nightlies ?

Edit: Tried 3 nightlies now. Not a single one does work. Tried two different pc's too. Reinstalled motorola drivers on both. I'm clueless.

Edit 2: Also, if I disable USB debug and then reboot, it is enabled again.

Edit 3: I just enabled ADB over network as this is the feature I need the most. I did connect via ADB while the phone was plugged in to USB and right when it connected via wifi windows popped up a hardware dialog along the lines "Unknown device, installation failed."

Edit 19638746278: After reinstalling the motorola drivers once again and reflashing the latest nightly the phone does not even charge anymore via PC USB. Instead, I just get the hardware popup with "unknown device" which reports that it's "not working".

I wonder about the suspicious timing and also I wonder why it says "usb device not recognized" (freely translated from german)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joegreat:
