They already found it and it's working ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam1john:
I used the way. Super easy. Frustrating that its not supported tho

I mean, what is to come of flash if its no longer on android and there isn't an alternative.

Its like we will be trying to view imbedded videos on a 5 year old Motorola lol

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gumball925:
Adobe is doing us a favor with getting rid of adobe flash, if it wasn't so resource hungry then it would've kept going. Adobe dropping flash will not effect it either, in fact it'll probably free up resources for them (i.e. ongoing support) . They've already started to get on the HTML5 bandwaggon (see Adobe Edge).

Hot Air Won't Substitute for Flash

I've heard all kinds of baloney about the use of Flash being sooo bad on Android phones. Well without this, the Samsung S3 and the HTC S1 doesn't work for streaming video on some sites. Now, complainers, give me a GOOD alternative. Or is this a plan to cripple Android phones so they will work as bad as an iPhone?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagdude:
Chill, and go sideload flash. Problem solved. Android is still not crippled. :)

And well this is the first step of moving over to HTML5
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
Basically Flash is obsolete with the introduction of HTML5 video just like 32bit Windows programs are obsolete since 64 bit has been around for years. Yet in both cases most sites still use flash and most Windows programs are still only 32bit. I think discontinuing flash support this early was a bad move by Adobe. It was one of the top apps in the Play store and had mostly good reviews. Its just too early to call it dead. Flash was pretty well performing, it allowed 720p youtube videos on my Droid 3 without noticeable lag and 1080p videos on my Touchpad. Since HTML5 has no DRM its not replacing flash anytime soon as its very easy to download an HTML5 video.

If you want flash you can download it from the site in my signature. It runs okay on JB even though its not supported.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TokyoGuy:
Hello. I'm quite disappointed that the Nexus 7 doesn't support tablet mode... It really feels like a giant phone and I sorely dislike the pull down menu as opposed to the task bar type design in Honeycomb. I aware that by altering one of the lines I the devices code about display settings you can activate tablet mode.

I have never rooted a device before and thus am a bit worried. There is some one step root I've heard of for the Nexus units but wonder how I might restore the original system if I wanted to do an OTA update or such.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00208:
For whatever reason, my Nexus 7 does not show up in the "owned devices" section of the Google Play Web store.

I see my Galaxy Nexus and my Galaxy Tab 10.1, but for the past 2 days, my Nexus 7 hasn't shown up. (see attached image)

I've done the following:

- rebooted nexus 7 several times

- removed my google account from my nexus 7 and put it back

- wiped data/cache for play market app on nexus 7

- signed out and back in to google on multiple computers

Things to know:

- I am using the same Gmail account

- I have installed apps I've previously purchased on the device through the Nexus 7 Play Store

- I've purchased apps & music through the Nexus 7, been charged and everything

- It's been activated since Tuesday 6/19/12, so it's not a "give it time" thing

Here's an interesting example:

I purchased Paperland Live Wallpaper through Nexus 7. It installed on my Nexus 7. I went to the Play Store on the Web and Paperland only showed as purchased, because it only shows my two devices (Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy Tab 10.1), despite being purchased/installed through Nexus 7.

Help? :(
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
Are you sure you used the same Gmail account?

Also can you remotely install apps from the Play website to your Nexus 7?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00208:

Have you tried the following.

Log I to your play account on line. Click"my orders & settings"at the bottom of the page. On the next page click the settings tab at the top. Make sure you device is ticked to show in menus.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxe:
This happened to me as well and i tried everything you tried but without luck.

I had to make a factory reset, after that it worked.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krueger80:
Same here

I got my Nexus 7 last evening and I still cannot see the device in the web play store almost 20h later.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DincEngineer:
Fix that worked for me

Hey I had the same problem. It happened after I force stopped and cleared the data from the Google Services Framework in an attempt to receive the 4.1.2 update. Worked on my Gnex for 4.1, but removed my Nexus 7 from owned devices on the Play Store. Tried a bunch of things, but what ended up working was force stopping the Google Play Services app, then clearing the data. After that I launched the Play store again on my Nexus 7, then loaded the website on my laptop and low and behold, the tablet was back.

Now before this, I had done the same thing to the Play Store app itself with no luck. If the Google Play Services reset doesn't work however, maybe try it in concert with a Play Store reset as well. Hope this helps!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superflybribri:
I had the same problem.

On my Nexus 7 I went inot the Google Play Store app

I click on the 3 dots in the upper right corner for the drop down list

I clicked on Accounts

I clicked on the Gmail account that I wanted to use (It was already selected)

I clicked the OK button

I went to the Google Play Website

And it showed up now.

I hope this helps someone.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krueger80:
By doing I factory reset it solved my problem! Annoying but it worked for me.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nsmart:
I had the same problem with a Nexus 4. Device did not show up on play website. What I tried:

- Cleared framework services data, play store data and download manager data.

- removed google account from device and reconnected it.

I read somewhere that you should go to "my orders & settings" on the play website, click on settings and change the nicknames of the "unknown devices" to something different (e.g. different numbers). When I did that, suddenly my Nexus appeared in play store. Maybe worth a try.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Zenoxio:
I have updated to the official ICS (AT&T) and now I'm no longer getting much battery life. I had some issues with the update, so I wiped my phone and I have little to no apps.

I used to get 10+ hours of battery life, and now I don't even get 8 idle hours (so now it doesn't even last the work day). I checked Battery Usage after it was down to 20% and cell standby took up 90% of battery life.

I used to run JuiceDefender, but I reinstalled it on ICS.

Why have I lost so much battery life; how can I fix this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xyberx7:
I have noticed the same thing on the stock ICS. Also noticed very slow charge times using USB (possibly true with A/C charging but I am normally asleep when I charge with A/C).

Is this just caused by the bloat that they put in? I want to flash a custom ROM just for battery life at this point.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lirong:
Im also seeing Cell Standby as a higher % than I used to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] christianxin:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
Instigator's kernel is for AOSP (CM9/AOKP) so for ICS based official or roms you will need a different one such as mohan's kernel:

As for battery loss, there are some cases where if the flash wasnt done with 100% battery it could be reading the battery wrong and some people have had success with recalibrating their battery (look up battery calibration on play store). Now it was said that it really doesnt do anything for battery improvements and was just for stats use or whatever but for some people it helped their devices read the right battery stats.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jhobc:
Hello! I wonder if anyone has a solution to some bugs that excelent ROM (XS.Hyouka.R7). Since I am a new user does not have permission to reply to the developers section. Well here's the bugs that are occurring.

1 - The Walkman player disappears from the cell phone notifications when pause the music. The pause button works as a Stop button.

2 - When I'm with the phone plugged into the charger, the phone restarts several times.

3 - When I'm listening to music and do other tasks, the music is stopping and turning.

How can I solve these problems? :confused:

I've done a full wipe, and flashed the Reboot Fix provided by the developer (but the phone keeps restarting when charging)

I use Rage Kernel 3.2 (ICS)

My phone is a LWW (WT19a)

* Sorry for Bad English
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
1. It is built so in the ICS, not a bug.

2. Doesn't happen to me, with the kernel provided by Lasan. Not sure if really a bug.

3. It's because our phones do not have enough RAM for multitasking, so not really a bug.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
You should do a fresh flash...go back to stock GB....or flash abyss kernel (GB version) and then perform a full wipe. Never do a wipe in an ICS

kernel...then re flash the firmware...make sure that u are in GB when u do the full wipe.

If you decide to flash abyss kernel, flash it and then reboot recovery...do not reboot the phone or it will fail as GB kernels do not work with ICS. :good:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archangel919:
Root your phone , back up all data using titanium back up and reboot to recovery , wipe data , cache , dalvik cache from the clockworkmod recovery and flash a good gingerbread rom . And if you think rooting your phone spoils your phone etc etc then you are wrong !!!!! If you have fear of loosing your warranty you can always unroot your phone . after fresh install restore all your data with the titanium back up , you wont loose any data may it be paid app , or anything , it will be restored . And if you have fear of loosing your data like songs and other stuff on your sd card then dont worry , wiping data wont wipe your sd card
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJSlim79:
Happens all of the time after you downgrade, Sounds like you didn't clear cache/Dalvik etc once you'd downgraded to GB.. If you're on GB - Can always try to boot into stock and factory reset (this will not wipe your internal and external SD card so photo's and music will be safe.)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] plato2876:
Don't know if anyone's poked at this yet, but lately I've been getting a number of "emergency alerts". Most notably, these inevitably come in the middle of the night, telling me that outside the completely comfortable walls of my home, there's a thunderstorm going, that I was previously able to sleep through, until the Messages app decided that this was important, ignored my ringer volume setting, and sounded an EAS alert.

Has anyone looked into changing or making this functionality more configurable at all, by any chance?

Hi Guys!

I've been wanting to get a decent wireless keyboard and mouse to use on my S3.

I've seen the cheap mini ones with a mouse pad on ebay, but I'd be after a proper mouse and a real enough sized keyboard to type with.

Has anyone tested the Apple bluetooth keyboard and the magic mouse? I see those as beneficial for transportation, flatter and easier to store away. Minus the price of course :P

I've seen that a few like Toshiba, Samsung, Motorola have done their own portable keyboards for such uses, but very few seem to have bluetooth mice any more which can be paired.

So, your ideas, XDA?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Kurai Kitsune:
Pretty much after posting this I hopped on ebay and looked around. There were some cheap Motorola Atrix Work and Play Kits going, so I ordered one, not really caring about the dock it comes with. Arrived this morning.

The box was pretty heavy. The dock actually feels very solid and high quality, shame you cant use it here... unless I break one of the connectors off leaving just the micro usb........ tempting. But then it's still a bit oversized.

Onto the keyboard. Very solid, good feel with the keys, standard laptop size. Function keys for app shortcuts don't work (although they register a sound on the phone), but the media keys do. play/pause, stop, skip, volume up/down mute. Search (opens google now) menu key, home key, back key. Seems to be able to wake my phone and unlock it too :)

My only issue is it seems to be similar to the american keyboard layout. A couple of keys are different though, so it maybe some european country's standard.

The mouse I am pleased with. It's standard size for a mini-mouse, again feels solid. All buttons and scrolling work fine.

Now to try and make it work with various FPS games. I may have read in a few places that it's possible.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] adamo3957:
If you have root go into /system/usr/keylayout/ and mod the text files, you should be able to assign them to anything as long as you know what code you want them to open, take a look at the atrix files to see what they were generating

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CosmicDan:
Hi,

I've been trying to find a way to specify kernel commandline on the Xperia Play without having to recompile the kernel. I have tried fastboot -c option (with a boot.img flash of course) and also an mkbootimg with --cmdline option, but nothing seems to work. However it does work for HTC and Samsung devices.

I have discovered that the kernel source file at /arch/arm/kernel/setup.c is responsible for parsing the kernel flags from atag/bootloader and also in the compiled kernel, I figure something in here could be made to read the extra cmdline from boot.img header to append it. But upon comparing this file to HTC and Samsung kernel sources and trying some changes I could still not get it to work.

So my question is if this is possible to fix in the kernel? Or is it a bootloader limitation/difference of the Xperia line and simply not possible without recompiling the kernel every time?

TIA.
