Quick question, please.......... I have Jellynote on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 and now want to try Redemption Rom. Is there anything I need to do to clear out Jellynote or can I simply install the new rom right over it (after clearing the cash and wiping the data.)

Thanks - Barb

Hey guys, I'm using "ICS_4.0.3_MR1-RC4.2_Captivate" on my cappy. Had it for a while and just tried using the GPs for the first time. It's not accurate whatsoever. I'm at work right now and it's got me 5 or 6 blocks away on google maps.

Is there a small fix for this? Love the rom but do find it a little ridiculous the gps is this inaccurate. I've tried searching for this rom in the search but didn't have any luck.

Sorry for the ignorance.
[Captivate General] blackinches:
I tried a few "fixes" from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1493695

to no avail. it's laughable how inaccurate the gps is. still looking for fixes on the googles.
[Captivate General] wwcjr91:
This is a disappointing realization that every captivate owner goes through.

Our GPS is not the greatest. There are fixes that help, but nothing that make it anything to brag about. We constantly hear those horrid three words that no smartphone owner should have to repeatedly hear: "GPS signal lost"

We are here to help you through the heartbreaking process of this realization. I for one went through denial and bargaining, then finally acceptance. It can lock my position if I'm stationary, but I have never had the best experience using it while driving.

My one works well with data connection in AGPS mode. When i abroad i just use external BT receiver - it saves battery, money and actually more accurate.

After nearly 10months of abuse, i think it's time to get a new battery cover for my Note

Is there any decent covers with graphics that are not based on skull? i'm looking for funky graphics and something funny

Here is an example of the skull one that i found on ebay

If there is no option with funky/funny graphics, my second choice would be a carbon fibre design that's not cheap looking

I dont know what i am doing wrong, i used the chainfire root method and used odin and flashed the cwm to my S3, but when it rebooted it did it normally but no superuser or busybox was installed...

I have booted into the recovery, and see that it is CWM, but why do i not have root access???

Thanks in advance.

[HTC EVO 3D] HTCLittleMonster:
Hello, I was wondering if anybody could help me.

Recently the digitizer on my EVO 3D cracked, and I took it to a repair store in my local town centre. I got it back, and the LED touch lights at the bottom of the phone (Home, Menu, Back and Search) didn't light up anymore, and the camera became tempermental and decided when it wanted to work. When I opened it, it mostly hard reset the phone, or took me right back to the homescreen.

My mum took me back in, and we asked them to fix it, and they apologized and took it back and fixed it for free. I got it.back, and they claimed they could fix neither the lights, or the camera. I can live without the touch lights, but the camera now near enough refuses to work all together, only rarely will it actually load. I've tried using a different app to see if its a software issue, and the other app just freezes and crashes.

I've contacted HTC, and they said they'd arrange to collect it, and give me a quotation, but I'm concerned that, because when they replaced the digitizer they gave me the Sprint EVO 3D one and not the UK version, that HTC UK won't take it back because its voided the warranty...

Does anyone know of anything I could try to sort this problem myself? If not, I'll send my phone back to HTC for repair and see what happens...

Any help is greatly appreciated :)
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Well if that store is the one who did all this to your phone, you should be taking it back to them and demand they fix it. It's their fault, they should fix it.
[HTC EVO 3D] HTCLittleMonster:
I did take it back to them. They couldn't do anything about it. They said there was nothing they could do about it.. :/
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Well again, they broke it, they can fix it. Talk to a manager and demand it. You paid for a service that they messed up.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ChitownWingMan:
This is a cross post of a thread in the Q & A section because I think it is more appropriate here. Please forgive me if you disagree.

I have encountered a problem using SDXC cards in the Galaxy S III. It appears, to me, to be a bug in the exFAT drivers which are only used in the 64 GB SDXC card, 32GB cards and less are formatted as FAT32.

Please see thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1805743 for further information.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Zephyron:
I heard you might need to format the card as FAT32
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ChitownWingMan:
You can't use FAT32 on a 64GB card. The phone formats 32GB or smaller as FAT32 and the 64GB at exFAT.

Some platforms support FAT32 on greater than 32GB cards/drives but it is not very compatible.

Thanks for your help
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tamasrepus:
Don't confuse FAT32 and FAT16. FAT32 supports up to 2 TB, though I believe Windows makes it difficult to format anything larger than 32 GB.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ChitownWingMan:
You are correct the theoretical maximum size of FAT32 is 2TB. However, since Microsoft in their infinite wisdom decided only to support FAT32 up to 32GB (most likely to force people to use NTFS) support for FAT32 above 32GB is spotty and unreliable.

This being said if you format a 32GB card or smaller in the Galaxy S III, it will be formatted FAT32. If you format a 64GB (or greater I presume) in the Galaxy S III, it will be formatted exFAT.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hauniii:
exFat format will not read correctly on SGSIII. I just had this issue with my 64 GB SD card. I formatted it in FAT32 and all was fine. I did use a Mac with disk utility to do the formatting though. Windows 7 was trying to force exFAT to format.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tamasrepus:
Windows Vista and above don't let you format volumes larger than 32 GB as FAT32. It's an artificial limitation on their part.

Other than that, FAT32 has been around a long time, and works fine with 32+ GB volumes. It's not great but doesn't really become spotty and unreliable till you go beyond 100 GB or so.

I'd get a Linux LiveCD and format your SD card FAT32 with that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kwilsonjr:
Partition Wizard Home Edition (win) is free and will format all your fat32 needs ;) http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ChitownWingMan:
Thank you for confirming my research. I am currently in communication with Samsung, T-Mobile and SanDisk. With any luck with potential sales in the millions they will fix it. The man at Samsung commented "We sell that card on our website we had better get it working"
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ChitownWingMan:
Further Update

I spoke with someone at Sandisk and they have heard of the problem and are researching it. T-Mobile and Samsung are also "investigating" it.

I formatted my 64GB card FAT32 and I am using it like that for now.

One problem with using FAT32 is that there is a directory size limit of 65,535 bytes total for the directory itself (not the files in the directory). I have a Titanium Backup directory with almost 12,000 files in it, all with long names. That easily exceeds the 64K directory size limit and this directory is "full" and trying to write to it generates errors.

If you have a directory with 5,000 files with an average file name length of 12 characters (rather short in this day and age) that makes the directory 60,000 bytes. If the average file name length is 13 characters the directory size will be 65,000 bytes and if the average file name length is 14 bytes the directory size is now 70,000 bytes and this exceeds the maximum directory size.

If you keep your file names to the old DOS 8.3 (11 characters) format then a directory can handle approx. 5,957 files. The actual number is less because there are other bytes in each entry used by the system (permissions, file size, starting segment, etc.).

For programs like Titanium Backup this can become a problem. Titanium backup uses long file names (longer than 20 characters) that include the date in them. I always backup my entire phone downloaded apps & data, system apps & data and system data. This is about 470 different items being backed up. Titanium Backup uses 2 and sometimes 3 files for each item backed up. I also maintain a 7 day backup history. This creates a total of 8,225 (approx) files, if each has a file name length of 20 characters that would be a directory size of 164,500 bytes.

This far exceeds what FAT32 can handle. And this is a somewhat reasonable scenario.

So, let's put pressure on T-Mobile and Samsung to get the exFAT problem fixed.

Hey there,

I've just been getting into ROM development and have a Sprint Samsung GNEX (toroplus) and a Google Nexus 7 (grouper). I made an AOSP build of 4.1.1 for my N7 and was using dsixda's ROM Kitchen to add root functionality, busybox, and to change the name of the ROM. I keep getting a "Status 6" error when trying to flash the ROM after building it.

I looked in the FAQ section of the thread and saw that it had to do with incorrect formatting due to using the wrong text editor, but the thing is that I haven't touched Windows while building this, it's all been on Linux.

So after flashing it, I used the "Report Error" function and check the recovery log, looks like there are some syntax errors. Could anyone help me out?

Thanks in advance!

Just click on edit then advanced and edit the title.

Personally I would suggest just building with those features from source.

[Android] lithid-cm:
You are using an aosp rom. There shouldn't be any reason you need the android kitchen. Go to github.com/cyanogenmod/android_build read the commit history. Should give you some insight with building a better busy box and root. Look up the system su from cyanogenmod ect ect.

What’s a Raspberry Pi?

The Raspberry Pi is a $35 credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It’s a capable little PC which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games. It also plays high-definition video. We want to see it being used by kids all over the world to learn programming.

from: Raspberry Pi FAQ

What SoC are you using?

The SoC is a Broadcom BCM2835. This contains an ARM1176JZFS, with floating point, running at 700Mhz, and a Videocore 4 GPU. The GPU is capable of BluRay quality playback, using H.264 at 40MBits/s. It has a fast 3D core accessed using the supplied OpenGL ES2.0 and OpenVG libraries.

Development for Android is slow going with only a few talented people so far, but due to the uniqueness of this project it is well suited for the coder interested in challenging and rewarding projects. Come join them!

I tried it. It appears to run in emulator mode. It is very slow. It should be capable of running much faster considering the specs of some older devices which run ICS are running better.

Hi guys,

So i decided to Install a custom ROM and I settled on using Repencis 3.0 and it gave me problems at the start, but i worked out the kinks and then it worked fine. A few days later it stopped charging with the charger while it is on (so weird) only when it is offed or when it is connected to the PC via USB cable. It did not do that the first day i flashed Repencis and the only thing i can think of that i did was that i updated the battery chargeBAR line. I also installed a lot of apps an connected them to the SD via link2sd. Any suggestions as to what is causing this anomaly?

Hi,

My signal reception is not always great. Sometimes i also have the issue of having no reception untill i unlock my screen, but thats not always the case, sometimes i have to reboot the phone to get my signal back but this not always work. The signal loss occurs even when i'm asleep and the phone is on my nightstand.(i've seen this in the battery history). Battery drainage is not greater when there's no signal. Also when i make calls i and sometimes the other person hear loud noises(peeping). Also my signal bar show full bars and when i try to make a call this doesn't work because when after a while trying to make the call, the bars drop to maybe 1 or even no bars.

The problem with high pitched noises while making calls i've had from the beginning, in GB. Losing signal reception i've had since i 've rooted ICS 4.0.3(one-click doomlord). under 4.0.3 i've flashed the .72 baseband but that didn't helped. Now recently i've did a factory reset + flashed a generic 4.0.4 and rooted it, because 4.0.4 isn't yet released in Belgium. under root I removed bloatware, but didn't remove critical apk's.

In the menu with available network providers my operator/provider has only 2G, i've choosen the automatic connection instead of manual, only in big cities 3G appears in the menu, dunno if this is relevant.

My Sim is maybe 3 years old.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

The Anker 1400mAh seems to give exactly the same battery increase as the 1500mAh unbranded, which I guess means either my benchmark methods are fail or the 1500mAh unbranded ones are just 1400mAh similar to the Anker ones and claiming to be 1500mAh.

Conclusion: Buy an Anker 1400mAh battery as they are a trusted brand and are just as cheap as the ones claiming to be 1500mAh. Wait for a trusted brand like Anker to come out with anything better as anything else is probably just fake or not as high mAh as they claim to be. And since they're not a "trusted brand" like Anker, who knows how long they keep their charge before they start draining faster and faster or whatever. Just get the Anker 1400mAh.
