[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] -Harsh-:
Our Xperia S is powered by an li-poly battery and i recently read an article saying it has a life of 250-300 charge cycles..:eek:

I was wondering what are this charge cycles ??:confused:

Everytime we charge the phone to 90% the default battery app starts a new cycle of recording battery use, is this ONE CYCLE for li-poly battery ?? :silly:

Since i have read this i keep charging my phone between 15 and 95.. I don't let it completely drain nor try to charge it to full, hoping it would help my battery on a longer run :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
It's probably a very old article.

Installed the Official CM 10 Nightly 8/21 an hour ago and it is running great. MMS works, Camera works with out crash or reboot, No reboots and a flashlight app I use that caused a reboot on 8/20 works with out a reboot on 8/21. keep up the great work. If only I could post where it would be seen.

Hey guys,

I'm running AOCP 2.1 from the guys at the collective. My question for the community at large is whether or not anyone else has had issues with the S-Pen functionality or the AT&T visual voice mail? I'm a new poster but I've been reading xda forums since I got my SGS II Skyrocket back in December. Any advise or opinions would be a great help, also want to know if anyone else is having these issues. Thanks in advance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] samot86:
Hello mate... I'm new with this just like you. I believe this question was asked shortly after the release of CP2.1... Others have stated that there is no support for S-pen unless you're on a stock rom. However, there are other options that work great...check out jotter, markers, memo, papyrus. Hope this helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] digichris:
Use G-note to replace S-note. It works great. Find it on xda forums, not on play store yet.

A better alternative to visual voice mail is using Google Voice. Never you set it up though, call or chat with an att rep and have them out your account back to the old regular voicemail, otherwise Google Voice won't work.

And lastly, my bootleg workaround for the "screenshot then edit and send" feature of the stock note:

-Download Skitch from the play store.

-Take a screenshot (vol down + power buttons)

-Screenshot will show up in notification bar.

-Tap on screenshot in notification bar, open with Skitch, draw stuff, send to someone or save to disk.

Good Luck!

[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
There is a big problem on the horizon.....

Lovefilm and Sky Go on my iPad have stopped working due to my jailbreak...

Turns out Sky Go doesnt work on Rooted Android either!

As much as i hate Sky as a company we dont have much choice in the UK if you want some decent channels on TV. I dont even use their app that much but this trend seems to be catching on...

More and more apps are refusing to run on Jailbroken iOS and the same will be happening on Android soon enough. They are also actively patching any work arounds or hacks to stop people running apps on Rooted or JB devices.

i really hope some of the talented people who code for android can find a good solution to this problem or even better Google comes out and tells the world that Rooters should not lose out like this.

If we can make it so much work for them to keep fixing the holes then maybe they will get fed up with trying to patch them.

Because if we dont then more and more apps will follow!

[Galaxy S III General] graffixnyc:
There are some apps out there that will temp unroot your phone so apps like that will work. then you just restore it(OTA rootkeeper allows this). Also I think Siyah kernel supports temp unrooting
[Galaxy S III General] Rabangus:
Siyah kernel does support temp unrooting, but somehow Sky Go still knows your phone is rooted, and it won't work. So far from the reading I have done there is no solution to this other than to flash back to a stock unrooted firmware. :(
[Galaxy S III General] Tectas:
I don't think it will become the rule on android, because there are to many apps that even need root, but at ios, probably because jailbreak is the only possibility to get, at least partially, out of their ecosystem.

[HOW TO] Barclays Mobile Banking working on rooted S3
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
As far as I know. Sky Go has gotten around everything so far.

I see not to far in the future a situation where you have to either root and lose lots of apps you use or lose the root lose lots of apps you use.

That's a crap situation for sure
[Galaxy S III General] Lennyuk:
Sky have invested a heck of a lot of time and money to making the latest Sky Go apps very very hard to hack!

They now do a lot of checking on their severs which makes it impossible for us to hack around.

I am sorry but I don't think we will ever get sky go working properly with root, and as soon as we did sky would update the app to fix the loophole.
[Galaxy S III General] esist:
Google won't do anything because rooted android isn't standard android. The android platform isn't built like windows or OS X, where the default is the user having root available.

Therefore security (DRM in particular) on those platforms is built with that in mind. Android isn't.

Also, while you might have the best of intentions there are plenty of root-users who would use it to copy content offline, trick it into thinking you have a subscription whe you don't etc.
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
This sux for sure.

On iPad they sandboxed the app in its own virtual environment. could this trick it into think its running on unrooted firmware?
[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
I can't see how there is no way around this. If the app tests root, deny it, if it scans for root binaries, change/rename them. What am I missing here? Is there some other level of detection somewhere?
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
You cant get the content without a subscription anyway, the problem has been people UDID spoofing and getting more active devices than they are allowed. Its a joke that they limit this anyway they should just make it so you can only be logged in on 2 devices at any one time using traditional methods like IP address and IMEI
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
temporary unroot doesnt even work so i dont know how it works personally. Out of my depth on this
[Galaxy S III General] Lennyuk:
The Sky Go app is a bastard

This is a list of some of the things it checks (but not all)

- Root binaries

- Root App

- Phone model

- Android version

- Custom Recovery

- Custom Kernels

- IMEI checks (stops wifi-only tablets..)

The first 4 are simple to overcome, the last three cause major issues!
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
Why would that stop wifi tablets? it works on my iPad wifi only?
[Galaxy S III General] Lennyuk:
the Apple skygo app works differently, it doesn't check for IMEI.

wifi-only android tablets do not have IMEI numbers so it will always fail this check
[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
How in earth does this user space application have the ability to check custom recovery? I suppose kernel might be easy, but recovery??

Still, there must be ways around it.
[Galaxy S III General] Lennyuk:
Thats the thing, we (me and two others who worked on hacking this app) couldn't work it out! But it definitely was detecting it, we tried it on Samsung and HTC devices with no root and stock kernel but with a custom recovery and sky go stopped worked, change back to stock recovery and the app works again but we could not find any code that checked it.

On most devices to get it to work you need a stock based rom, stock recovery (unless recovery is part of kernel like S2) stock based kernel (ro.secure=1 must be set!) no or hidden root. You then need to make sure you fit the device or version checks, if you don't you need a hacked app that allows you to do this.

However the latest sky go apps do a sever side check for the apps signature (so you cannot decompile and recompile without changing this). So basically we can no longer do even the most basic of hacks.
[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
Surely you can modify it to spoof the signature the app uses to send to the server...

They really have gone all out eh.

Is there a possibility of an xposed module? This way the app remains the same, but it kicks in when the app calls the root checking routine and the module returns false.
[Galaxy S III General] kaynpayn:
Can't you just not use their app? Don't know what it does though, but the point is to send across some sort of disapproving message. If enough people stop using their stuff they're likely to chance policies - if the company invested enough in something they'll change usage policies easier than see people not caring for them, i think. Also, they need to be aware this is the reason for stop using their stuff. Maybe write them an email or some sort of letter or even better make it public like posting on their facebook. Nothing insultuous, a well-thought educated complaint expressing you stopped using their stuff and considering stop being their client because you don't agree with the no-root policy. Negative publicity is something big compaines always try to avoid.

I realise this isn't a quick solution but given the impossibility of a functional workaroud, this is probably the best method.
[Galaxy S III General] artesea:
You could, but then Sky won't care. The app allows you to watch live TV on a number of popular pay channels including Sports and Movies.

The number of users inconvenience by the root check is probably less than 0.1% of the customers.

And as far as they are concerned root = by-passing DRM and as a premium content provider they need it.
[Galaxy S III General] glockadam:
Afaik there is a tweak to ios that solves this problem.

Btw, on iphone skype notes if the phone is jailbroken, but then it continues to work.
[Galaxy S III General] _delice_doluca_:
If %0.1 was really the case, then no one would really do anything about it. I am sure there are much more people out there who roots their devices than we could imagine.

If only %0.1 of people were rooting than HTC would not develop S-On, Samsung would not come up with binary counter, the developer of the Dead Trigger would not tell he dropped support for Android because of the "piracy" being very higher than iOS which has almost 1/3 of it users got JailBreak..

So rooters should not underestimate their power and majority. Many device manufacturers just create devices and then forget them. Custom ROMs are mostly the only way to stay updated and they come with root. Open source spirit mostly come with root too. Since every manufactorer breaks many things and add countless bloatware trying to "customise" pure Android rooting is our only option to get a smooth and bloatware-free experience.. So software making companies have to learn that rooting is getting a part of every Android users' life slowly and there is nothing wrong about it. The best way to make them learn is not to use their app. Believe me, there is enough people to make a chance.. Customers are always powerfull than they think..

Besides, one more thing. If an app is so carefull about its safety even though it is not a CIA or bank app, then it is probably trying to hide or steal something, which could be your data in this case.. That's obvious, no one makes a titanium door for a wooden house..

[Galaxy S III General] artesea:
Seriously Sky don't give a sh*t. Root = DRM circumvention. They spend $billions each year on exclusive access to movies and sports which they want to make sure you are paying them to watch.

Possible scenarios for Sky

- rooted user is able to re-stream content obtained through their phone;

- rooted user is able to save content locally;

- rooted user could attempt to claim to be a different device and allow two/three/four.. users to access the same content.

As for number of rooted users, I've worked in Technical Support for mobile phone companies. Number of staff with rooted phones? 1. Most customers are more than happy with the way the phone works out of the box, and don't care about firmware, launchers, Touchwiz. And whilst I'd expect it to be high I'm certain that the number of XDA users on the GS3 forums who have rooted their phone isn't 100%.

That's not to say I don't want to see the community find ways around Sky's walls, I just don't expect them to pull them down for us.
[Galaxy S III General] Geordie Lad:
I tried running Sky Go on an unrooted Android TV box and won't even work on that because it just shows a message saying it won't work through HDMI.
[Galaxy S III General] _delice_doluca_:
I don't care about this app honestly. All I said was about "many apps are becaming root-proof one by one" words. Android has thought us that there is always an alternative out there. I believe there is an alternative to a company who prevents technology (I do not even know the company nor have I seen the app with my own eyes, I write all these learning from the topic) developments, there must be! Even if this includes not using the app and not benefiting from it's' features..

This is how I play that game. I use Note 2, I really like the phone. But just because Samsung has tried to destryo alternatives, I will no longer buy any Samsung product nor advice to my friends no matter how good they are.. Because I learned, there is always a alternative and I support that idea. Knowing that gives me the relief which tells me my money is spent for the right place (I am going to spend it already, I would rather it to be somewhere with open mindes)..
[Galaxy S III General] omgbuffguy:
Shouldn't flashing xposed framework and installing xprivacy do the trick? Then you can individually allot permissions to any app while allowing others including blocking root access which shows as a negative

I'm now using sematek's CM10 Unofficial build. The ROM is ultra fast, super stable and eye candy at the same time. However, I miss the stock samsung apps, for specific, the Accuweather and Music player. I've read somewhere that they need TW framework to operate. I have a working TW 5 for CM 10 but not sure if the framework is there already or not. I've tried lots of port for GS2 and have zero success so far.:rolleyes:

Sure there would be alternative but I want to stay with sammy stock app for a while cause the money we paid partly went to samsung's dev anyway, right?

To sum up, I need a working package of AccuWeather and Stock music player that actually work on CM10. Maybe a port? Or an extract from Sam's offcial JB? Any? :confused:

I've used augmented batteries from Chinese brands in all of my smartphones (Galaxy S, Xperia Play, HTC Sensation, Galaxy Nexus). No issues so far. I've bought a couple of 1800 mAh batteries from Aliexpress. Mugen just want to fetch top dollar for what is worth pennies. I don't begrudge them for that, but I vote with my wallet.

Here they are: http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...-BA600-Batteries-lot-of-2pcs-wholesalers.html
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Logseman:
If you have to use customer support, that means the battery doesn't work properly. While it's good to have it, it doesn't mean an awful lot in goods that can't be repaired. I agree with you if we're talking of durable goods and services: there you need people who can repair the thing or solve your problem. Nevertheless, fungible goods like batteries don't merit tech support.

Plus, they're in the US, which is basically as far away from where I live as China is. Shipping a faulty battery back and forth costs basically the same as buying one of the Chinese batteries.
