[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] numedecod:
Hi guys,

I'll contribute my knowledge here regarding changing DPI on The Tab 7.7 running ICS 4.0.4:

1. "DPI changer" app *will* make your tab get stuck in boot mode. And there is a very stupid reason for that: the build.prop file needs to have exactly the permissions for reading, something like 644 IIRC. The app will change those permissions to 777, and this makes the tab get stuck at boot! If you have CWM recovery you can set back the permissions to that file, no need to reflash an entire ROM because of this!!! Worst case, just go to download mode, install a CWM recovery and alter the file permissions through an ADB shell when connected to the PC in recovery mode...

2. Setting a DPI other than the default one will definitely force close many preloaded Samsung apps. My experience: I didn't even have the keyboard anymore, got force closes every 5 seconds about "Samsung keypad stopped working" without even doing anything... So their keyboard apk doesn't play nice with a DPI of 180, let's say. I tracked the problem down by analysing the android logs: it forced closed because it couldn't find resources for the required screen density... very stupid also. Probably true for other apps as well.

3. Changing the font size from settings is only a partial solution. The icons in the launcher are drawn separately, so the text size is still small. Also this doesn't affect the images or icons, they will still be very small since the only changed setting is the font size, not the virtual screen density...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] s28:
in your 1st point, how do i change permission?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] alxwlc:
ROM Toolbox also can change DPI, anyone try before...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] sman55:
I tried that at 213 but lost the menu at the bottom of the screen and several programs crashing
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] sman55:
This is what I did on stock ICS P6800 Hong Kong ROM to increase font size.

I made a nandroid backup using CWM just in case anything went wrong. I downloaded root explorer, found the build.prop document in system and opened it in the editor. There are two lines ending in 160. I changed the 160 to 213, saved the document and rebooted. Everything went fine.

As mentioned in many places this causes some Samsung apps to crash when they open such as phone, camera and contacts. I also found the following apps failed: Allshare, Memo, Music Player, Readers Hub, SPlanner, Task Manager, Video Player. All is not lost.

I downloaded these free apps from the play store which work well to replace some of the one's that don't. I'm sure you can find many more. Messages, works fine by the way as do some other samsung apps.

Dialer One: replaces default dialer and acts as contact app too - just remember to swipe the screen to move from phone to contacts.

If you want a separate contact app aContacts works fine.

I downloaded Camera ICS which works great.

For those on ROMs where samsung stock apps have been removed there should not be too much of a problem. The increase in font size and usability for me has been great.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] theerachai:
changing dpi to 213 ,

I still can't find a good replacement for stock email app. I need to use this for my hotmail account.

Actually I use this app for two of my hotmail account with push service but after change dpi to 213 .It alway show exchange force closed.

Try to replace email.apk and exchange.apk with the one from AOSP ,it worked but only with pop3 and imap .Could not use exchange active sync for hotmail.

Any idea,

CM10 is officially launched, see Google+ CM circle.
[LG Optimus 2x] shajumohamed:
Great News. A few doubts though

Lets consider LG releases the ICS update..

I noticed that google released new binary hardware drivers for galaxy nexus and nexus 7.

Does that mean the ICS drivers are not sufficient to run JellyBean??????? :(
[LG Optimus 2x] xtrustkillx:
We will see...
[LG Optimus 2x] zeonit:
I prefer the excellent custom roms here - so who needs LG (except their needed drivers).

Let's see, who's the first JB-Dev here... :laugh::laugh::laugh:
[LG Optimus 2x] blabliblabla:
a big thanks to everyone already who is going to work on custom roms for our beloved device!
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
nah cyanogenmod already stated that any device supported by cm9 its able to run and will get cm10 aka jbean
[LG Optimus 2x] crazy_dj:
but since we are not officially supported we'll have to wait and see what time brings us
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
We are officially supported
[LG Optimus 2x] ironman159:
I don't want to complain but crazy dj is right. If we were officially supported we would get official nightlies.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
We're something in between.

Other devices who are not officially supported need to port CM on their ROMs - we don't because RC from the CM-Team did that for us - and submits fixes for our device as well.

The reason we don't have nightlies is that CM doesn't add devices which aren't fully running ICS - which we don't.
[LG Optimus 2x] crazy_dj:
but he only submits fixes for CM7 doesn't he?
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Without the drivers we need a cyanogen release is just pointless we are stuck with gingerbread till lg release the official ics and maybe with an official ics rom a cyanogen jb rom can come from that.
[LG Optimus 2x] Intelmaster90:
I would be interesting to see if the Hardware Acceleration works with Jelly Bean if we have the official LG ICS Sources... Hope it works. ;-)
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
This is not accurate.. I have a gtab 10.1 running Cm9 nightlies and the tab does not have offial ics yet, same situation... But our dev/maintainer there is pershoot and he care about us... And release nightlies pretty often... Guess RC its just not interested in this phone anymore
[LG Optimus 2x] crazy_dj:
that's not right since the Honeycomb drivers were ported and already there, in our situation we only have drivers from Froyo poorly ported by LG to Gingerbread. The leap between GB and ICS is way bigger that HC and ICS. Remember that without his work our phone would be not as good as it is with CM9. Also he still has a private life and if he takes a break , fine so be it. He doesn't owe anyone of us anything.

I'm sorry but I just couldn't let it be :D
[Nook Touch General] ApokrifX:
Asked in General Android forum – no response...

That will be really helpful with abd over USB debugging :o
[Nook Touch General] ApokrifX:
Looks like it’s controlled by stay_on_while_plugged_in in /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.System.html

Whether we keep the device on while the device is plugged in. Supported values are:

•	0 to never stay on while plugged in

•	BATTERY_PLUGGED_AC to stay on for AC charger

•	BATTERY_PLUGGED_USB to stay on for USB charger

These values can be OR-ed together.

Constant Value: "stay_on_while_plugged_in"

It 3 by default (i.e. stay on either BATTERY_PLUGGED_AC or BATTERY_PLUGGED_USB), but NST doesn’t honor it. :crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] yellowfddriver:
I just got the SGH-i747 for ATT, and i feel like after using the phone for around 30-45 minutes, it gets really warm, not hot, but warm enough to feel it slightly through my case.

When I had my One X, it was going through the same sort of issues...but then I rooted it and it seems like a Rom fixed the issue. Perhaps a ROM uses a better governor.

Does anybody with a rooted gs3 experience this? Is power management better on a rom like Lean Stock or DietICS?

I do understand that bigger displays usually means more heat being emitted.

I have auto brightness on, and the default level is about 45% for me.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeason124:
:Hey guys,

I'm in trouble with multiboot and tried some ways but failed. So I need your help!

My main system is MS2 2.3.4, BL6, GB kernel. And I want CM9 defyplus to be the 2nd system.

First I tried m11kkaa's multiboot v0.7 but couldn't launch CM9, it stunned with black screen. Then I found multiboot can't work on GB kernel after that. So I searched solution and found this View attachment 1188228，it came from http://bbs.mfunz.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=408756, and could work on GB kernel. With this i could launch CM9 finally, but it came out another question, the encryption unsuccessful and couldn't go on.

After reading the changelog of m11kkaa's multiboot I thought maybe the v0.6.1 can work properly. So I tried to contact with the guy who did modification on it for help but failed.

I think the attachment maybe useful to m11kkaa for developing multiboot on gb kernel, but i cant reply his thread for i'm new.

Can someone help for letting m11kkaa know here maybe have the solution of multiboot with gb? I'm very thankful!:)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk0108:
My defy plus is bl7.. So stock gb kernel.. And multiboot worked fine.. Just don't flash any kernel.. I didn't have any problem..
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeason124:
Actually i got touch with the guy from mfunz.com finally, and with his help i got a fixed v0.6.1, then i made it.

The only thing which different from my 1st try is when stunned as black screen i kept waiting, for about 3 or 5 Minutes the screen turned on at last. Then i got into desktop without encryption unsuccessful.

So maybe i should wait longer at the first try? maybe the fixed version is unnecessary?

Anyway, thanks for your reply. let me know the multiboot can work with gb kernel at least.

But i swear i saw m11kkaa'reply in his thread saying that it's not support for gb kernel.

And, what's mean of 'Greenbreadmod' in the changelog?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk0108:
I used v0.6.1.. Not the fixed one.. I didn't have any problems.. Tried cm7 ms2ginger and cm9 on multiboot and all worked fine.. what image files are you using?? did you flash a kernel while installing ms2ginger??

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sanosuke001:
I'm looking into developing an app that adds a current-app-restart function for force-quitting the current app with focus and then restarting it. But, I want to add it to the Navigation Bar in ICS (requiring root would be fine) but I can't seem to find anywhere that talks about creating an app that inserts a button into the nav bar. If it is possible, will it have to be manually started via a regular app link or can it register itself with the OS? Either way is fine; the latter preferable, of course. The app logic itself is no problem, it's the adding a nav button I need help with.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction for documentation? Is it possible without recompiling the rom? Thanks for the help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wyattyoss:
As much as I want to help you, I know almost nothing. I do know you're in the wrong section though. Try the Q&A. And when you do make this, you could post it here, or maybe themes and apps if its an app.

hmm.. figured android development would be the place to go for android development. I'll post in the other forum and if I find something I'll post back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wyattyoss:
Here the mods/users prefer to see a work in progress or a finished product. Sorry
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KlugN:
What's ICS? :P

Since you'd have to edit code, it cannot be done without decompiling/recompiling. Edits in both SystemUI.apk and frameworkres.apk, but I wouldn't even begin to know what xml's and other edits would be involved.

Plus, I think you've got this posted in the wrong thread friend. Should be in general.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sanosuke001:
Seriously? You say general, the other guy said Q&A. gd this forum is confusing...

I'm not looking to edit the OS, I'm looking to create an app that adds a button to the nav bar. If that's not possible, I guess I'll abandon the whole idea because I don't want to have to recompile my current ROM everytime it gets updated :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eman3316@optonline.net:
If you are asking a question then Q&A seems like a good fit. If you are making a statement or giving info then general is usually the correct place...

The simplest thing to remember though if there is nothing released or developed then the development section is most definitely not the correct place to be in.

This section is the place where the users have no mercy. You can get away with the other sections a whole lot easier. Oh, and then there is the apps and then section where you will find some mod as well.:confused:

How that helps...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] craigacgomez:
It cannot be done with vanilla ICS... You'd have to customise the navigation bar code to do what you want... AOKP has the ability to add any app shortcut to the navigation bar... You could use that as a reference...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sanosuke001:
I figured Q&A would be for android questions, general for conversation, and development for development. As I'm looking to "develop" an app, it seemed reasonable.

Oh well, I posted in the Q&A forum. Thanks for the help, I'll get it down eventually.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djh816:
The guide on this post should help get started. I don't know if you can insert references to an external app as it looks like the entries tie into the resources in the navbar itself. Anyways have a look: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1743979

Also as others have stated, questions (even having to do with development) belong in the Q&A section. There's also a separate xda section for help developing apps which would probably be a prime place to start as they would know more about general ICS things such as nav button editing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beamer9408:
Don't know how to write it but to me with root access it would seem like every time you wanted to change a nav bar button it would need to place the apk into the system which normally if you run adb push Systemui.apk to your phone it usually force closes the systemui and will either restart after pushing or need a reboot to take effect. I don't know of a way to push images or xml changes to a apk without pushing a whole apk in example I don't think you can do this

adb push battery_charge.xml /system/app/Systemui.apk/drawables/battery_charge.xml I would look into how t mobile theme chooser is written that allows things like that to happen should be a pretty good start.

Hey guys, I just noticed this as my battery died rapidly today and I checked the battery info in settings and saw "dbus-daemon" used 67% of my battery. I didn't install any new apps today and I can't recall seeing any updates automatically installed. Does anyone know what this is and if its something I should worry about? Obviously it drained my battery in a matter of minutes so I am worried. I had to do a battery pull because the settings was not responding. Is there some type of spyware/antivirus software I should install? Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi all,

I am a new user to Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I wished to root my device but however i am not too sure with the model i am having.

This is my phone's version and i think it is a GSM model. Because I am living in Malaysia and I am currently on GSM. But when i search online it shows that IMM76K is verizon model. So i am a little puzzled.

Hope anyone out there can help me. I would like to root it and update it to Jelly Bean.

Unlock the bootloader

Use the toolkit to flash it back to IMM76I, google stock rom (all data will be wiped, please backup everything!)

Try see if you can get the OTA, its gonna be random and take sometime, you might want to try installing the OTA in zip form via CWM.
