Yeah, it seems some other random chargers will work ok, but hard to nail down which ones. Of course I could invest in all Sammy chargers, albeit not exactly what I'd like to do. Sounds like a conspiracy theory :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vlad_z:
+1. I'm using couple non-Samsung chargers without any problem with deep sleep.

Samsung charger got resistors in between +5V/Gnd pins and signal pins. So, certain voltage on signal pins allow to detect if this is a computer USB port, Samsung charger or any other charger.

Theory is - this allow to cap charge current. Computer USB port can provide about 500mA and wall charger 1.0Amp.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] md95:
Yep, that theory appears to work as intended, but my feeling is that when a non Sammy charger is detected, its not reverting to sleep mode and staying in charge mode, as deep sleep isn't available during charge. Hopefully this info can help a developer out to track down the bug. A lot of talented devs on here, I know someone can figure it out! This issue is annoying and inconvenient, to say the least.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] davwman:
I'd say that's a well thought out theory and there has to be something in the kernel that can be changed to tell the phone to deep sleep after every charger pull at 100%
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] elesbb:
Yeah ive heard this being an issue on the HD2. I use an LG charger for both phones and have not experienced the lack of Deep Sleep. I wonder if the charger has some sort of chip in it telling the device its done charging. who knows what goes on in there :P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vlad_z:
I can look at kernel source code if I can find it ...

Just to let you know, I have just tried to sync some music from my pc to my dropbox and it said that it was unable to sync.

When I looked at my dropbox storage, it says that I have used 126% of my 27gb storage! :(
[HTC One S] enzomtrx:
When I had my galaxy s vibrant used these hacks sucessfully and used the space just fine. At some point though I think dropbox did a sweep of accounts and my space dropped back down to a non premium amount of space.

After I got my one s, I had trouble activating my 23 gb of free space , and after a couple emails with dropbox tech support , they informed me that they were aware of my abuse of their system but they still hooked my 23gb up within 24 hours. Just sayin.

DROPBOX FOUND OUT.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Root Tracker is source code for a super-simple Android 2.2+ device tracking system that responds to SMS messages with embedded control passwords.

Root Tracker is designed to be installed on a rooted device in /system/app, so it can survive a hard reset. Root Tracker has no user interface, all the better for hiding it from a thief. The code must be customized for the particular user and device, as passwords and other configuration items are hard coded, and each user should change the package name and other details to make it sound like a system package, in order to even better hide the package from a thief. Don't use the current values in the source, as a smart thief (there aren't many, I expect, but there may be some). Plus, I expect that different users will have different requirements.

After customizing and installing, go to your system Settings and set Root Tracker's device admin class as a Device Administrator.

Actions available:

gps

wipe

lock (locks screen [if set as Device Administrator; otherwise, sets screen timeout to a very short value to make device very hard to use], turns off adb, disables NoLock)

unlock

root shell command (output returned via SMS).

I wrote Root Tracker because I was uncomfortable about having my phone tracked and potentially wiped by a closed source app, like the various anti-theft trackers currently available. A crucial design principle was to make RT simple enough that one can easily verify from the source code what exactly it is doing.

The passwords are plain text in the apk. You can replace this with hashing if you like, but I didn't bother.

Also, instead of invoking the Android system's data wiping, which is known to be of problematic quality on some devices, it uses dd to overwrite the data partition, which may be more reliable (but of course, you have to ensure RT is installed in /system/app). Moreover, this means that the wipe works even if the thief is clever enough to go to the device settings and revoke Root Tracker's device administrator status. I don't know how well this works. This is a feature I did not test since I don't want to deal with restoring a backup. I worry that wiping the data partition will cause a reboot at some point. (Still, I have deleted the contents of /data before, and restored them via tar, and the device did not reboot while deleting.)

The gps command responds instantly with last cached GPS and Network location, then turns on GPS (even if disabled) and Network location (this one may show a dialog, so I recommend keeping Network location on in your Settings, or else disabling the Network location code). Then it waits for a GPS fix. If while waiting for a GPS fix, it gets a new Network location value, it sends that, but keeps on waiting for a GPS fix. If it gets a GPS fix before getting a Network fix, it quits looking for the Network fix (you can change that in the source code).

Note: Installing this on a device that isn't yours (unless you're law enforcement with an appropriate warrant) is likely illegal and is certainly not nice. This is designed for one's own use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghilliek9:
I have noticed that my GS3 constantly uses more than 1GB of ram....usually about 1.15. I'm on the Synergy ROM. I read somewhere that this might depends on the ROM (some use more than others). Is that true or is there some kind of a tweak I can set up. I usually just hold the home button down and go into task and clear out the memory.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Touchwiz uses alot of ram in general...not much you can do other than switch to aosp roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghilliek9:
Didn't know that....I was waiting for the CM10 to get more stable and switch to that. I think it might be time.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bleelas:
Take a look at this article:

http://www.androidcentral.com/ram-what-it-how-its-used-and-why-you-shouldnt-care

It talks about how Android uses RAM and why it doesn't matter that the RAM is "filling up". It's a bit long and a bit elementary at times, but it's interesting nonetheless.

Edit: as far as programs using more RAM (TW>AOSP), there is probably some performance gain to be seen. BUT since you're not completely filling the RAM currently, it SHOULDN'T be all that significant.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghilliek9:
+1 Great article!! I'm no longer worried hehe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JohnnyTToxic:
For what it's worth, I'm usually sitting at 1.2g on Synergy Nightly r53.

But I've got a lot of crap that likes to run in the background. Some apps, like Life is Crime use a little over 55mb, but I find that DroidStyle has it right up above. It looks like the elements of touchwiz are taking up like 300-600mb (if you count all the samsungy stuff like gestures and smart watch and all that)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dave_k605:
I'm fine with very little ram available, the problem is screen redraws too much and becomes choppy.

Kinda annoying really

Hi I got my cube U30GT MVA screen 4.1.1 build is sdk v1.0.4

How do I root.

And then flash ur firmware.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xunair:
Any help please.?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] deanfarnaby:
Dude the instructions are in the first post.

You dont need to root before flashing.

Turn your tablet off.

Get RockChip Flash tool and install USB drivers.

Plug USB into PC.

Plug USB into Cube.

Open Flash Tool

Hold Volume + and Power Until the computer makes the "new hardware" sound.

As soon as the sound is made release the two buttons.

Flash tool will pick up the Cube and show a green box to show it's connected.

Press Update and wait.

You might need to unplug the cube , power off etc and start again once you have installed the drivers. I did, it didnt pick it up as it had only just installed the drivers - I just unplugged the cube , closed everything down and started again and it worked fine.

BTW - All this is typed from memory , there is a full, accurate tutorial at the site I mention below

All due respect the the ROM dev here. There's a lot more choice over at www.flashmyandoid.com The community for this tablet pretty much lives there - There's not much happening here @ XDA which is a shame - there's also instructions to increase your data partition to 2gb (Currently only 1gb) which is very handy as I downloaded 700meg in apps in my first few hours

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
Thank you all guys! I must have sounded like a rookie (I am actually not - as a matter of fact, I am pretty active on the XDA in the Defy section) last night, but I really freaked out as this tablet is my wife's Birthday present, so after a flash gone bad, I lost my cool (which is bad in a situation like this). So, what happened:

1. I flashed the above ROM, but instead of using the Restore button, I pressed the Upgrade button.

After the fail, I got the dead Android with red triangle. From that point on, I couldn't get the tablet recognized by the PC. All I was able to do was get into the recovery menu of the tablet by "pumping" up Vol+ and Pwr.

2. I put a stock ROM on the micro SD and flashed it (took several attempts to put the card in and out).

After the finish, there was the white screen of death. I waited for like 10 or 15 minutes and nothing happened, so I held down the Power button for 10 seconds and turned it off. From that point on, I couldn't turn the tablet on. Thought the battery was dead and left it to charge overnight.

3. This morning, after sleeping it over and regaining my cool, I tried to turn it on again, but no matter how long I held the Power button, it wouldn't turn on. So I plugged a high-end USB cable (the one from my Defy) into the PC's USB and into the micro USB of the tablet, held down the Vol+ and Power buttons and... Oh, miracle - PC finds new hardware! I went to Device manager and installed the drivers. Went back to RKBatchTool and... Voila - green light!

4. This time around I used the Restore button and it all went SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTH! I have the tablet back now!

any news about Android 4.2 for cube u30gt ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gerstavros:
No, Rockchip will not develop Android 4.2 kernel for RK3066.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DallasCZ:
user "Tab_modder" released 4.2.2 firmware from pipo M1: here

it is 4.2.2 rom and it works with cube latest 3.0.8 kernel.

in the link there are also a zip with diferent kernels so you have to replace the kernel.img in the ROM.zip with cubeu30gt kernel from the kernel.zip

then in your cube u30gt go to recovery, do full wipe and flash the rom.zip.

smooth, fast, rooted.

Only one thnig i realized by now is, that bluetooth is not working, but i think there will be soon fix.

[Motorola Photon 4G] brunomcf:
Hey Guys!

After flashing Mof's Ish locked rom by mistake, the phone kept on trying to find network at the start, and wouldn't come out of that.

So I flashed the original USC .sbf. Everything seemed to work except for the GSM service.

I decide to try another rom, so I chose this one http://d-h.st/uqV

Had no idea it could cause any conflict being the Photon's locked rom.

As I couldn't activate the phone on sprint, decided to get back to stock 2.3.5 flashing the USC sbf.

But when it gets to the end, the phone gets into an endless bootlooping just before the USC logo (sometimes I can see it in a fraction of a second).

Instaling the Photon rom was the cause of bricking it?

Any solution for it?
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
Are you using it in Europe or outside of the US? If you are you don't need to do anything to get the GSM working. It's not locked for networks outside of the US. I assume you're just getting the activation screen? If you are you can easily bypass that. I think this works the same for the Electrify. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LLkyZ9Ji9Q

Solved! Thanks!

No guts, no glory.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thunder_54:
Yeah I would agree that you're over thinking it. But there's nothing wrong with that. I remember being equally cautious and skeptical about flashing once, but luckily I had a knowledgeable friend to help me quite a bit.

You said you're on stock Froyo? Make sure you root, I don't think I saw that in any of your steps.

Honestly, if you follow the instructions to most ROMS you'll be fine. No need to worry so much. Especially once you do it once, you'll be MUCH more comfortable with flashing in the future. Maybe even watch a few youtube videos of people doing it! That always helps me. I'm more of a visual learner though.

But you're right, you do need to have a backup of your EFS folder, and taking your sim out would be best As far as performance vs froyo. Phenomenal. I've never had my cappy run this smooth, and you can thank project butter for that. Android lag is virtually gone :)
