[Verizon Droid Charge] Antoneus1231:
Hey guys. I have had this weird issue where my cwm recovery keep getting replaced w stock. I deleted the install recovery script from the system/etc folder list the instructions said. Any thouhts? I have had tibu hang up on me a few times and had to pull the battery to get my phone back on. I wonder if that had anything to do w it... Thanks for the help.

Rooted FP5....
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
This script existed in 2 locations: /etc and /system/etc. Make sure both of them, the install-recovery.sh permission set as follow:

under "read", all checked, under "write" none checked, and under "execute" only the first one checked (owner). Do not delete them.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Isn't /etc just a symlink to /system/etc? If so it's the same physical location and files.
[Verizon Droid Charge] deafptl4ever:
I was wondering the same thing. Curse your Jelly Beans and I don't mean the ones down there. LOL :eek:
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
It is. You can see it in Root Explorer.

I made a video for those that wanted it. It's currently rendering.

Edit: uploading now, updated the OP.
[Verizon Droid Charge] neo314:
What do we mean by "fully stock?" If I have a rooted stock ROM, will that work? If I take an OTA (I think the OTA I am looking at is not FP5), which would unroot my charge, could I use this or OTA up to FP5 and then use this root technique?

If you could clarify this for me, I just don't want to screw it up.

Thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
No. You have to be fully stock, unrooted. If you take the OTA while rooted you will bootloop. Best thing to do beforehand is use Titanium Backup to backup all user apps.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namsu55:
I am using Cynagon 10 mod right now. Is there any other rom that is good or better that comes with this feature by default?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_phekt:
CM10 does have BLN. Go into settings>advanced and you'll see the option for BLN
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namsu55:
It does have it yes and it does work. But the link for Gapps isn't working so right now I need a ROM that works with BLN. Is there any other that's worth trying?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivasrage:
you can flash any ROM you want because if it has no BLN you can flash a kernel with this feature...

like bedalus kernel...and enable it via NStools..

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] kencad:
Hey guys,

Some of us backed up/pre-ordered this app/launcher from Teknision. Compared to the touchwiz UI, it seems better but it's so limited.

Any feedbacks?

:D
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] dwmackay:
I gave it a go. The real value seems to be their widgets of which there are only a precious few. With some trivial exceptions, the basic blank Chameleon screen looks and acts like every other blank launcher. The ides they promote of a "Morning", "Work" and "Evening" home screen can be accomplished whit any launcher that allows for multiple home screens, which should include everything ever produced since the second Regan term.

I do have to say that the Gmail widget looks great. I would prefer to just have them make that and their other widgets available in the market for a price.

However, the most glaring flaw I saw was that their launcher seems to only work with their own widgets. So the 4 zillion widgets already available in the Play Store do not work with Chameleon. I may be wrong about this due to the next paragraph as my testing/fiddling was forcibly truncated, but I don't think so.

I tried Chameleon for about 45 minutes. After I installed and played with it for a bit, my Tab 7.7 locked up. I got stuck in a boot loop with the Tab 7.7 splash screen; it never even made it to the Verizon 4G splash screen. The only way I could get out was to do a bit of gymnastics with the power and volume buttons between loop sequences and do a complete factory wipe through recovery. I have yet to find a widget that makes a factory wipe seem worthwhile and this was no exception.

So I am done with Chameleon Launcher. Based on what I saw in my 45 minutes, even if the bugs were worked out, I would stick with my current set-up. As always, your mileage may vary.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] kencad:
I agree. Also I noticed that the memory consumption was too big. I hope there would be changes on its way. I expected too much on this and it doesn't beat my stock ui. It always needs Internet connection making it annoying.

Not using it as of now, but still waiting for better offers upon updates.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] lambstone:
I agree that the current beta leaves much to be desired of.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] Max11:
It is hardly a beta version at the moment. I doubt their concept of html5 widgets will achieve broad acceptance.

Just purchased their better and waiting for the email so I can go ahead and install it

---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

Ok so I received the registration email I went to the Google Play online I selected install, it shows as being installed but I can not find it on my drawer app. If I try to install it via the Google Play app it won't allow me to. How did you guys get the app to install
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] kencad:
I had mine installed before I decided to pre order so I just activated my account. You might try opening the beta launcher in Google play, click uninstall, reboot then go back to play store and install the launcher again.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] adinis78:
I can't even un install it
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] kencad:
How about un installing it inside the settings>applications>downloaded menu? I since its installed, it might be there. Honestly, I haven't encountered any issue as you did. Just thinking of other options that might be possible. Otherwise, it might be another bug on Teknision's part.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] adinis78:
Nope it does not show up, might have to send them an email

Edit: I can now download it

I think only some bugs may been worked out but still pretty much the same IMHO
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] hammer of thor:
i have been using it since it went 1.0 but it i cannot find any difference between it and the beta before it... it is very buggy... and a constant internet connection requirement is something i do not like as i only use wifi... you cannot install your own widgets, which is a negative thing too... and they have such a small number of widgets right now that it is hardly worth your while... but i like the look and it is exactly how i always wanted it... the only thing i care about is that they stop the constant need for widgets thingy, increase their number of their widgets or allow us to install other widgets....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] kencad:
There is an option that any user can upload/install a widget provided he/she knows how to make one. Too bad, I don't know how to make one

Sent from my Galaxy Tab
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] Shaady:
Have been using this since the first beta, and have been pretty dissapointed to be honest. Its still buggy as hell, and the lack of widgets is a disaster. For something that relies so heavily on its widgets, the (lack of) speed they have got them out in may well be its downfall. Its great that you can make your own, but after paying for something that promised widgets in the first place, why should I have to make my own?

Possibily my biggest bugbear is that the gmail widget shows only unread email...why?! its so frustrating!

Not sure that the screen on the 7.7 lends itself very well to it either, on a bigger screen I think it could be great.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] kencad:
Still not using it. Waiting for some updates. Pre ordering was not a good idea to me since its gplay price is the same and it just sits in my home screen unused (waiting for updates)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdenny:
I have none of my picasa Albums selected of "view offline" however if I turn wireless off. I can still view the pictures. I plan to upload alot of pics to Picasa and don't want to fill my nexus up. I also noticed that my nexus 7 became laggy after I started putting pictures up on Picasa. I just want to make sure that it is copying all my pics down to the nexus.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangy:
Have you found an answer to this yet? I also have been trying to figure out the same thing. I thought at first it was just the thumbnails but once I view an album the pictures seem to remain cached despite my offline setting.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E_Goldstein:
Isn't this to do with G+ instant upload???? Go to accounts in settings Google, then look at what syncs turn off Google pictures and instant upload and anything else that resembles g+ go to apps All scroll to gallery clear data and reboot and they'll be gone
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangy:
Yes, from what I've gathered it is the G+ instant and Google Pictures sync that adds the "picassa" albums to the gallery. I actually wanted my picasa albums in my gallery, however as I have over 100 albums I wanted them visible and accessible when online (to save space). I only want to chose a few select albums (kids, work stuff, etc) to make "available offline" but so far it appears as soon as I view an album it saves the full images in cache and still shows up when I'm offline, I don't want my storage getting eaten up by pictures that I only plan to view when online.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bwolmarans:
Stock from AT&T including OTA update.

It's not working for missed calls, nor sms's, nor anything else.

Mechanically sound, goes red for charging and green when charged.

Yes, it is enabled for those notifications in the settings.

If you have a confirmed solution or very strong hunch, please post it here.

Thanks "in advance" even though I hate saying that.:cowboy:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
Umm... I guess try the basics?

clear cache, restart, etc. If all else fails factory reset.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bwolmarans:
And now, 7 hrs later, it works again .... BUT

So now, the only difference is the phone is fully charged.

But the LED does flash now for missed SMS, call, and missed Email ( note: I have Notification for missed Email disabled, but it still flashes ).

Only problem is it stops flashing in about 1 minute .... so let me now ask, does anybody know how to extend the time the LED flashes?

Seriously, with all the power of these new phones, it's ironic that BB's from 8 years ago had LED notification that worked properly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ditchedthefruit:
But thats about all BB's from 8 years ago did, they flash and give you a messsage. make sure its enabled in your settings and wipe cache, I haven't seen anything on adjusting the time. MIne flashes until I remove notification. Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] intheb0x:
My gf is having some issues with her new blaze.

I rooted it for wifi tethering and tom remove some bloat.

Besides that it's stock everything.

Her issue is when texting, sometimes the text disappears and she can continue to type or delete but that text remains invisible until you back out the stock messaging app and go back in.

Any thoughts on this?

Anyone else get this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] grundlestain:
are you using the stock msg app? have you applied any themes? i use handcent for my texting, it works way better than stock. i remember something a while back (on my vibrant) about text dissappearing and i dont recall exactly what it was but i think it had to do with a theme or font pack making text white... if that helps any.

[Hardware Hacking General] mtlgui:
Hello XDA,

imagine, for building specific model of dell, their technicians prepare a list of hardware pieces and then they test them and choose the magic combo based on price and characteristics of these HW pieces. It's pretty simple with regular desktop PCs.

I'd like to know if there is anything like this for mobile phones. I know about beagleboard, pandaboard (i've read about them, but never used them). Is there something that I could use to test different components from different vendors... e.g. try out some SOCs from TI or Qualcom; a camera chipset etc etc. Can somebody direct me in the proper direction? Basically I'd like to know who things like this are done and where to start from. I'm aminly interested in android related development.
[Hardware Hacking General] Rebellos:
Such HW boards are mostly proprietary and heavy guarded stuff of companies like Samsung or Motorola. There are probably generic sets aswell, like test hardware produced by Lauterbach, but rather targeted for any ICs, though expect it to be horrible expensive. I've also seen boards produced by TI and Silicon Labs compatibile with few of their components (like SoC+some RF chip+PMIC) allowing to choose optimal configuration.

But AFAIK it's more matter of careful analyse of IC's characterstics before you build something, than just connecting everything up in various combos and empirically testing what's working better and what's working worse.
[Hardware Hacking General] mtlgui:
Hi Rebellos,

thanks for reply. I suspected something like that. At some time I remember seeing specs of some chips on TI and they provide all kinds of drivers test code etc even system images or stuff like. So, at least with TI chips, probably beagle-board is the way to go since it's their pet, I'm I right about that?
[Hardware Hacking General] Entropy512:
PandaBoard is the OMAP4-based successor to Beagle, and TI also has heavy involvement in that project too.

Or perhaps wait to see what happens with OMAP5 - it's almost guaranteed there will be a ???Board based on OMAP5 similar to Beagle/Panda.
[Hardware Hacking General] Rebellos:
Yeah, PandaBoard might be called "TI dev platform" and seems like they are using it for testing various own ICs as it's extremally flexible (OMAP4 has many various interfaces and nearly all of these are breaked out on Panda)

I'd expect OMAP5 Panda-like successor available in few months.
[Hardware Hacking General] smokeyser:
I think they're all vendor-specific. Here's qualcomm's snapdragon dev boards. They've got the snapdragon 3 (galaxy s II cpu) and snapdragon 4 available through bsquare.com:

I've been googling for hours and can't seem to find a real fix....

My Razr Maxx is rooted and on .215.... I do use exchange for work, and absolutely hate having to unlock my phone everytime I pick it up.

I think I've found what needs to be altered, but don't know how to do it...

There are two apps : HuxMotoEmail.apk and MoxierEasEngine.apk

I think these are the corporate email and exchange services respectively. Can one of your awesome devs figure out how to disable this and keep my stock mail client?

Not a direct solution, but Enhanced Email allows you to explicitly bypass Exchange policies. I have it and it just works like that.

I've looked into Enhanced Email, but I really like the stock app, and I've read of issues with EE not syncing correctly with the calendar and such. I know there is a way to patch Moto's stock apps, I just don't have the know-how.

Is it possible to have a moderator move this thread? (Also a question)

**EDIT.... looks like it's already done. lol.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vprasad1:
Apps like Touchdown and Enhanced Email cost money.

There's a DIY hack for stock/AOSP Exchange email apps thread but Motorola modifies their Email program such that the hack does not work-- so does HTC. That being said, some folks did manage to hack the Mail/Exchange apps for HTC, so more than likely it is possible for Motorola phones (unless Motorola/Google have got the thing super seriously locked down).

I'm looking for a hacked version for a Motorola Droid 4 running ICS (sister phone to the Razr, so pretty sure that whatever .apk files are modified for Razr will work on the Droid 4 as well). This is the first thread I've seen that mentions both mail files by name:

(mail) HuxMotoEmail.apk and (exchange / eas) MoxierEasEngine.apk
[HTC Amaze 4G] mahgninnuc93:
Check this out boys and girls. Approximately 2 months ago I got a new stock battery to replace the original that was causing reboots, which then showed the battery level at 0.

Started using the new battery and the same thing started last week. Reboot, low battery even when it was recently fully charged.

So I put the original in which hadn't been used in 2 months. Blast a full charge, wipe stats. And sure as ****, it works fine.

I almost wonder if it sitting for a spell and not being charged "refreshes" or replenished the life?

I'll keep you updated but thought it was weird.

[HTC Amaze 4G] andy55:
There's something definitely fishy with the amaze. I had 2 of them, and I'd swap batteries with different charges, say one had 80% and one had 40%. After swapping the one amaze would read close to what the other did, within a couple percent, and the other one was way off, like 30% higher, and it would die way before reaching zero. Funny thing it was only the one that did that with a battery swap, so the amaze is just weird when it comes to reading the battery charge.
[HTC Amaze 4G] paperWastage:
either the hard ware is the problem, or the firmware/software is problematic... i'm leaning to both :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] nelly_85:
Yep same here for me. My battery stats are honky all the time and its frustrating. Sometimes when its at 20 percent I take the battery out then put it back in and goes up to 54 percent ...what gives?
[HTC Amaze 4G] mahgninnuc93:
It's not jstu the stats Nelly. It's the overall performance and the intermittent shut offs. Since putting the "old" battery back in I can report that after 1 week I have had zero shut offs. Battery is giving me about 7 hours on heavy usage.

Cant figure it out.
