Maybe it's possible to make it work with every kind of USB device, but you need to wait for someone experienced.

Anyway I tried the app just to see if the modules are automatically loaded. It loaded only fuse.ko and it showed "NTFS support" even if I didn't add the module. When I did it, it showed "read-write" even if I added only "read" capabilities. Maybe it loads them in the wrong order.

If someone is interested, I found this: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=65232

I don't know if it works, but a female to female USB adapter is cheaper than a USB OTG cable and these Nokia cables (CA-101D) are quite common. Don't blame me if it won't work as USB OTG cable.

The list of files are actually symlinks (they use no space). If you don't add them when you want to use a busybox tool, instead of typing only the name of the tool, you need to type "busybox" too. For example, if you want to use "cat", you have to type "busybox cat". It shouldn't be a problem if you don't add them, but I install busybox because I use some of its tools, so I had always added them. Maybe apps need them.

Anyway, read this (taken from here):

Maybe the problem was that you didn't have enough space in /system and busybox was not completely copied.

I can't remember which version I used, but all the versions provided by stericson's installer should be ok.

Really thanks for such detailed information :) I think usb otg feature is not simple as it looks :( It needs heavy coding, modding & dedicated talented developer. But still I will try with a usb power hub.

Can anybody tell me at what price a cheapest usb power hub I will get in indian local market? Or at what price I will get a cheapest usb y cable in indian local market??

There's nothing interesting there, I can only see the modules are loaded.

To see if USB devices are connected I'd use a busybox tool: lsubs

insmod /system/lib/modules/usbcore.ko
# after that connect your USB device and type
lsusb

If there's no output from lsusb, there's nothing detected. Maybe other modules are needed.

Maybe building a kernel with this config could do something, I don't know.

All our custom kernels are built with this one instead. But after that probably we need a way to swtich mode etc... I'm not good enough for this, I don't even care about USB OTG :silly:, it's something I would never use.

Hey There

Iam currently on stock GB on note for bell and wanna upgrade to an awesome ics rom and root the sucker but it seems after a week of searching i can't find what i'm looking for. I tried a rom from another site and kinda sift bricked my phone. I was able to recover to a Gb stock rom and now im ready to try again.

Can anyone recomend a good rom for bell note i1717 for ics sandwitch? I've currently only used odin to mod my phablet. Any help would be greatly appreciated and sorry i'm sure you guys have heard this all before. Any advice for this newb would be very apreciated.
[Nexus 7 General] MikeMurphy:
I've found Skype to be a bit awkward on my N7 because the camera is angled at 90degrees from the frame, rather than sloping towards the center of the screen. As a result I have to hold the tablet further away from me, but then I sometimes struggle to hear the audio from the back-facing speaker.

Has anyone else found this? Or, has anyone here heard of other devices where the camera angle has been modified, and how?

Thoughts?
[Nexus 7 General] uberNoobZA:
Tilt the tablet slightly
[Nexus 7 General] CasualStarlord:
Pretty sure anything involving tilting the camera would be more trouble than its worth, you may be able to stick a small refractive lens to the front of it but not sure if anyone makes one.
[Nexus 7 General] slack04:
Get a case. The speaker is designed to bounce sound if there's a surface behind it (try putting the tablet flat on a table). Or just hold it such that your hand cups the speaker and redirects sound at your face.
[Nexus 7 General] MikeMurphy:
Thanks. I might take my N7 apart and possibly wedge something behind the camera depending on how its secured. A small adjustment to the angle would go a long way.

Will let you know if I am able to make any good progress on this.
[Nexus 7 General] MikeMurphy:
Thanks for contributing. Unfortunately, I'm at a loss for words that might help you understand what the problem is.

You might want to sit this one out.
[Nexus 7 General] khaytsus:
He's obviously saying that tilting the tablet up a bit is a lot easier than screwing up something trying to modify the camera. I suggest looking long and hard at tear-downs before you attempt anything.
[Nexus 7 General] uberNoobZA:
I know exactly what the problem is. And my suggestion is that the easiest way to fix it is to simply tilt the tablet to aim the camera where you want to aim it. Sorted.
[Nexus 7 General] MikeMurphy:
I wrote that having the camera at a 90 degree angle to the frame makes for awkward Skype conversations.

Now this next part is critical as to why your suggestion doesn't address anything: If I tilt the frame, the camera is still at 90 degrees to the frame. If you don't believe me, try it.

I haven't pulled my N7 apart to do anything other than loosen and tighten the screws. Looking through the bezel at the camera I see what appears to be some space between the camera and the bezel. This might not actually be the case, but it looks like it is. If the camera is anything like the camera built into my S2 it can be slightly angled with some gentle coaxing. Given the narrow angle of the camera optics I don't believe the edge of the bezel would interfere by blocking part of the camera's image, either.

Perhaps a good place to start is the ifixit tear-downs per suggestion above. Thanks!

Cheers,
[Nexus 7 General] MikeMurphy:
Had a look through ifixit, see step 13 on the below link.

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus-7-Teardown/9623/2

Unfortunately, the connector appears to be on the wrong axis for easy bending / tilting. It would have to be twisted which doesn't work well.
[Nexus 7 General] CasualStarlord:
Actually in that teardown, it appears to be attached via a really short ribbon that might flex a little...

So it may be possible, with the right application of something really thin at the front of the camera on the inside edge, and something at the back behind the camera on the outside edge might be enough to tilt it slightly for your purposes, something thin like a tiny slit of paper, or a tiny bit of sticker you could cut from a bumper sticker maybe.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcejohnson:
This is odd...

I have my N7 paired with my Samsung gtab p3113. On the gtab, I select an epub and try to share it to the N7 via bluetooth. It fails and if I click on the notification message I see "Unsupported content format".

I can put the file onto the N7 by ES File Explorer's bluetooth browser, and can open it just fine in Aldiko.

Once I got the file on the N7, I tried to share it via bluetooth, but Email and Gmail are the only choices.

FWIW, I've successfully shared the file via bluetooth with my SGS3.

Hi, I've read that the international quad core version of the Galaxy S3 can be used on Rogers.

I know absolutely nothing about phones so I was wondering how this can be done?

Do I just buy the international version without contract and take it to a Rogers service store and add a plan on it? What type of plan should I be using with the international version? I don't need LTE or 4G. I'm fine with the 3G network as long as the phone works without any issues. Is there any trustworthy sites where can I buy the unlocked international version of the S3?

@OP I am 99% sure that international GSIII will work on Rogers. I had GSII with me and I used it on rogers with a prepaid plan
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazin419:
From a little bit of research, everyone is saying the international GSIII will work as long as it's on a 3G data plan. Is there any downsides to using the international version other than being limited to 3G? Is it as simple as buying the unlocked GSIII int'l phone and using a 3G plan on it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
I don't think there is any downside apart from not being on LTE. Yes it should be as simple as buying an unlocked phone, putting the sim card in it with a 3G plan. In case if your data does not work check if APN is added. I remember it was added automatically for me on GSII
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SONE9:
I'm on rogers with the 9300, works fine. Obviously no LTE, but the HSPA+ is fast enough. Not to mention Canadian bandwidth restrictions making LTE a huge turn-off for me. 6GB a month for $60+, no thanks

EDIT: I could be wrong but I don't see a problem with what you mentioned in the OP. Get the phone and just buy a regular smartphone data plan, or whichever plan you want. As for myself, I kept the same plan as my X10 and just cut my sim up because it wouldn't fit and it works fine, no change of plan or anything.

Open Beta may not be stable and may cause issues with your phone!

By loading open beta you have agreed to:

1. To report all random reboots with associated /proc/last_kmsg

2. To provide feedback on errors or bugs with detail phone information such as ROM, kernel version, and apps

3. Participate in Forum discussions for the beta software with others without FLAMING each other or post useless information such as:

a) Phone doesn't boot (without providing any additional information, ROM versions etc)

B) phone is too hot (without providing any additional information, ie OC freq, UV etc)

The Open Beta system is designed to have the community help each other and the developers. This way, all potential bugs are flushed out so the final released version will be stable and error free. The more actively you participate in Beta Testing the better the final product will be (you are really helping yourself to create a better community software).

If you do NOT agree with the statements above, DO NOT load my Open Beta software.

[General Questions and Answers] klau1:
Currently looking for a suitable Phone Tracker/Locators in case phone gets misplaced.

For those interested in your options, this sums it up well: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/11/28/mobile-security-app-shootout-final-roundup-out-of-a-sea-of-apps-just-one-emerges-as-a-clear-winner-in-keeping-your-device-safe/

My questions is, how safe in terms of privacy are the trackers that also provide a centralized web interfaces?

Think about it, you are essentially installing an agent that allows the developer (if they so choose) to track where ever it is you are at and control your phone at anytime.

Sure YOU require a password to access your account, but surely the developer could have full access to all accounts using this software.

I used to use Tasker for remote SMS tracking, but the added features of these web integrated trackers are appealing since they also have remote picture taking, remote erase, locking, etc.

How would you weight on privacy vs feature trade off?
[General Questions and Answers] internalrage:
In my opinion it's really a matter of trust. First and foremost, do some research on the developer and app you're considering, look at the feedback, reputation, etc. then make a decision on how safe you feel about the service. It's similar to deciding if you feel safe signing up with a company like LIfeLock. In order for them to protect your sensitive data, you must freely give them all of your sensitive data. How safe would you feel about that? Would you trust them enough not to be malicious?

But then again, aren't you putting the same amount of trust and taking the same risks with the developer of ANY app you install on your phone?

As far as the apps themselves, I have used Find My Droid, the one Best Buy offers, and I can't remember the name of the third one and I found that all three are not as useful as I originally thought.

1. The gps feature was nice but did not pinpoint an exact address, just a general area. How useful is that?

2. I did a "stolen phone" test with the apps and it took them all between 5 and 15 minutes to lockdown the phone and one just plain failed.

3. The remote picture taking feature didn't work and if you plan on using an ICS rom, since the front facing camera doesn't work, the picture taking feature doesn't do much good.

4. The apps are useless if a perp pulls the battery which renders the gps completely useless.

So in summary, I personally wouldn't use one of those phone tracker apps. If you misplace your phone, just call it from someone else's and if you accidently left your phone at a bar or someplace public, call your provider for a replacement because you probably won't see that old one ever again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vanisleryan:
Lets say you are running cm9 with theme Chooser but you don't like some of the icons but more less like the theme.

Copy the apk from your data app folder using root explorer or whatever you are using...paste to your SD....copy it too your computer.

Use 7zip the same way you do with a system app. But this time at the point where you are in the archives delete the Meta folder also. Don't replace, just delete it. Now close 7zip.

Next you will need a tool called autosign, just Google it. With this tool you will drag and drop your newely themed apk into it and run it. Its very easy you will see, the result be an new signed apk being produced. Rename it back to original and move your modded apk back to your SD. By now you should have uninstalled the original from your phone so that you can install this one.

Remember if this apk ever has an update on the market it will revert back and you would need to mod the new version.

Hope this helps. If it does hit thanks.

That's how I do it, but yes you could just theme one system app like say contacts. Delete it using root explore and then reinstall it after. You may have a few force closes but everything should be fine after you do a reboot.

Personally I like having the whole rom themed so its easy to get back to reinstall if go and try some other rom. To each there own..there is always more than one way to do just about anything.
