Can you give me the full guide? Which files/folders that we should extract from system.ext4, how can we turn those files/folders into flashable ROM, I want this to try rooting the 2.55 firmware :P

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

Any Tasker users (with secure settings) can give me some advice?

I have been trying to figure a way to enable gps via an sms text (or even if it is possible) . :banghead:

I have a number of profiles set so when i use certain programs gps is enabled automatically (saves having to switch it on manually each time) and mobile data off, keygaurd off etc etc, got all that working, but I would like 1 that turns my gps on via sms (for a security app).

Any ideas?

Hi,

Thanks, believe I have the same settings, no luck though.

Will try again tomorrow, thanks for the help, if I can't get it i shall pm you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
Oh ok. I didn't try it either, so I can't 100% guarantee that it'll work either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PROlific666:
Go into your secure settings app and go to the helper tab and install the helper. Make sure it is enabled.

I had the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pittnuma:
Got it working with a little help from the Dev

Create a profile with an event Received Text. In the Body parameter put the keyword text you are looking for, then use secure setting GPS Enabled as the event...Bingo!!

I many a times use the wifi tethering to connect my Win7 laptop to connect to the internet. Running CM ROM.

Win7 connect to the AP right away, but shows 'Limited Connectivity'. Then it takes another minute or two before actually getting connected to the internet.

Connecting my Xoom to the same AP is instant. It seems like a Win7 issue.

Does anyone experience this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chrisgriner:
I can't say that I've experienced this issue specifically, but I feel your pain. My guess would be an issue is with Windows 7. Try something different and see what happens. FoxFi is an easy to use WiFi tether. Worth a try if it fixes your issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hkk:
Thanks chrisgriner. Tried FoxFi - doesn't work on JB. Looking thru the reviews, a few others also complained of it not working with JB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] exportsmedia:
I have had this same issue with my xoom and windows 7 laptop. My laptop always takes much longer to connect and catch up when connecting. Its probably something with how windows operates. I just deal with it. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
1. Make sure to set a WPA2 password.

2. Make sure the Network type is set as PRIVATE/Home in Windows.

3. If all else fails, go to Control Panel > Network > Network Adapters and disable your wireless card/adapter and re-enable it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hkk:
Thanks smokeey, those are my settings. Sometimes, when windows fails to get Internet connectivity, clicking on troubleshooter (which sometimes disables and re enables the wireless adapter) gets it going.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dw63:
Hey all,

Hope this isn't a tired subject. I nandroid backed up my GB before putting on ICS. I lost all my text messages, which isn't a big deal.

But it occurred to me to restore my nandroid backup to the SDK emulator (which I have successfully used to run my own "hello world" program) and I could go through my old stuff in the emulator. Is this worth persuing, or is it already known that I can't run a Skyrocket image in the emulator?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] askpcguy:
Depends on the nandroid backup format. However you can buy Titanium Backup and it can extract user data from nandroid backups. Also, you can give my thread a look over and see if anything there might help.

That is actually one of the best features of Nandroid. Just backup your current setup then restore the old setup. You might need to reflash the same ROM/kernel then restore the old nandroid backup for it to work but at least it's a start.

My texts are delayed and/or coming in batches. Same with the voicemails. This is a HUGE problem. I am S-off, 1.58 bootloader (I think that's the new one), rooted, and using viruses stock rooted sprint ROM. ANyone else having problems? I'm on sprint in the Denver area.
[HTC EVO 3D] breezer260:
I have the exact same setup and issue with sms. I don't use voicemail so no idea on that. I think it started when I restored SMS from a backup. Have you done something like that recently?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jim M:
I'm in the Denver area, running Mean ROM, ICS, having no issues with mms, sms or voicemails.

I would suggest a good wipe of your caches and a profile update.
[HTC EVO 3D] Kidmet:
Cleared delkavic and partition cache in recovery and the cache in the message app. Updated profile. Here's hoping.

Back to the future, did you see doc:D
[HTC EVO 3D] Nanan00:
All texts I receive are time stamped about 2-3 min ahead of my phones time so conversations get a bit hard to follow sometimes. I have tried to do resets, purges, different roms etc. I think it is a network issue with sprint... I don't doubt this because when they did tower upgrades here two weeks ago the auto time was set at PST and I live in Houston... It took a few calls to sprint before they would even acknowledge a problem and fix it.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
They upgraded the network and it's so fast now that the texts travel forward in time. It's Network Vision!

In all seriousness, my phone will make me manually set my time zone occasionally as it can't get it from the network.
[HTC EVO 3D] TechnoHacker:
Happened to me too. Like it'd say the text was like from 9pm when it was really 3pm and it'd be so annoying because no matter what i send, it'd always be the most recent message.

Fyi, after clearing the caches, texts seem to be working as normal.

Also check that you're on a proper prl. I know it only affects roaming but I've had a similar issue. Tried different prls, mostly for the 3g roaming, and discovered that I wasn't even getting texts. Went to a different prl and issue resolved. Coincidence? Maybe... But it worked for me.

[HTC Sensation] Dutch-Guy:
hi everyone,

I could really need a quick solution.

I just received my phone from a screen repair and was going to root it.

I unlocked it first with htcdev and now it says juopunutBear and it's S OFF.

but when I'm booting it, it just stayson the HTC screen and when I select recovery or factory reset it goes into the reset screen for a little while and after that it returns to the boot screen.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
If you can get to the hboot scrren it should be fixable.

You might be able to flash a new copy of a recovery from fastboot on your computer. That should let you reinstalled a saved rom.

You may also be able to flasha rom through a pm58img file in the bootloader.

If all else fails you should be able to run an ruu to reset it entirely and start over.
[HTC Sensation] Dutch-Guy:
Thanks! I'm running the RUU right now, everything will probably go as planned!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SGSIIIUser:
I was trying to use the voice recorder app but when I press record button it said that another application is already recording. So I tried to use S voice and S voice just hangs there without recording anything. Then I finally tried to record with the video recording and it said recording failed. So basically I cannot do anything that uses the mic. I tried restarting the phone and everything works fine again. This has already happened twice in two days. I don't want to keep restarting my phone everyday just to get the mic to work. Is there anyway I could find out which app is recording according to the voice recorder app? I'm running on stock not rooted.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] mitchellvii:
Have been doing research online for a screen protector that provides a "paperlike" resistance and sound when writing. I personally find writing on a slippery surface difficult.

I discoverer the WriteShield brand which supposedly does exactly that - give you a paper-like feel.

However, from what I can see they only have it for the Tab 10.1:

http://www.amazon.com/WriteSHIELD®-...stal-CLEAR/dp/B0055T0N5S/ref=reg_hu-rd_dp_img

My question is, is the glass surface area on the Note 10.1 different in size and shape from the Tab 10.1? I know the shell size is different but I am referring only to the glass area.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] DBBGBA:
I wonder if it consumes the tip of the pen more quickly
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] cmunho:
I know the tab 2 is the same, but not sure about the original tab.

I have a writeshield on my Asus ep121 and it feels exactly the same as my MXH Photodon, which feels the same as the rooCase screen protector I have too.

Any matte protector will wear the tip faster.

Sent from my Galaxy Note
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] mitchellvii:
So do all those brands you mentioned provide a paperlike resistance or is it basically the same scratchiness one gets from any matte protector?

I would ideally prefer a non-matte protector as i like a bright clear screen. I wonder if anyone makes a crysgal clear screen with a paper feel? I was under the impression the WriteShield clear version offered the same papery resistance. No?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] macwilson:
They are ok. Mind you, a paper like feel is only accomplished when a pen gauges a surface causing deep crevices. You might not want this :D

Joking aside, you get the idea. These screen protectors do scratch themselves, and it's sort of a mixed bag. I have a very nice Photodon on a couple of my tablets. I really don't notice much difference. I just put those on plastic surfaces to avoid scratches, not to improve slipperiness.

I'm really not sure about a few things regarding this. I have felt nibs that do make a difference (although probably slight) but I'm not sure if these could actually pick up more particles, and in so doing cause scratches. Don't know, and that's the beauty of screen protectors; you don't have to worry.

I think i'll just use the supplied pen. Samsung brags about it's 'rounded surface', and how it will not scratch. This may be the case.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] gk325:
I think UltraCrystal by Spigen/Steinhil is hands down the best. can't tell it is on there and very durable. So we can confirm that the screen for the tab 2 10.1 is the same as the note?

[HTC EVO 3D] cyndi.branam:
if you get (or can make) the device specific files, kernels can be ported

"kernelchef" took linux 3.0.8 from kernel.org

used the gingerbread linux 2.6 device files (board-shooter.c for example) for values, while using the real files from a different device as a templete

and was able to make a working linux 3.0.8 kernel weeks/months before htc released one.

He also ported the rezound audio and gpu drivers over to the 3d...

so, with lots of spare time on your hands (and the understanding of how to read the code), it can be done.
[HTC EVO 3D] sjoerd0301:
Ok, ok.

But i want to know how to build an aosp kernel from the htcdev.com source.

I don't know if this can be done?

So i don't want to build a whole new kernel, just modify an old one.

Hi I hope someone can help me with this issue. So far I have tried JamieD81's and ManelScout4Life's JB roms for my note and both times after about a minute of having "4G" coverage, it reverts back to HSPA or HSPA+ and it will show 3G for about 2 seconds every now and then. I have tried toggling LTE off and it works for about another minute then back to HSPA. I have tried resetting my network provider and that does the same thing. In some cases my data would turn completely off when using JamieD81's rom. I would really like to try and use one of these roms as my dd but with little to no data speeds, it's impossible. If someone has had this problem as well or has a solution please, please help! It would be greatly appreciated.

[HTC One X] GerBBAR14_c:
Hjau, and thanks for reading.

I've been using the HOS from day 1 and have now decided to jump into the HOX camp. I would like to know what's the biggest differences concerning ROM's, flashing, and so forth, if there is any, since I'm a noob with Android.

A couple of questions...

1. I've got the Finnish version of HOX - is it suitable for all ROMs or just some of them? Can I flash CM10 Alpha 7 by tbalden?

2. Is the whole flashing process same with the HOS after unlocking the bootloader; custom recovery (CWM), wipe, flash, fastboot boot.img and boot?

3. Is there anything else to know in terms of tricks and tips for the HOS; not seeking for battery savin' or the likes of that, just device-specific stuff that is important for custom ROMs and playing around with your device.

4. Before flashing any ROM, should I update the stock phone to the latest version of radio, Android and Sense? Meaning all the automatic HTC updater offers.

Like I said, I'm a noob. That's why I'm asking. Don't want to brick the phone with the first flash. There are so many threads and posts and ROMs compared to the HOS scene that I want to be sure.

:cowboy::p

Thank you very much!!!
[HTC One X] vivek_bhoj:
1. if ur HOX is tegra 3 based then yes u can flash it

2. yes the process is same as we still don't have S-Off

3. u can flash some custom kernels for better performance and battery

4. no need of it, you can directly flash any custom ROM, just make sure to make a nandroid backup before flashing

Well HOX has very good developer community and we are so lucky to have such good developers who have been working hard to make our experience better with our HOX

Here u will get a great dev support and u will be happy that u made a switch to HOX
[HTC One X] GerBBAR14_c:
Thanks a lot.

But why shouldn't I install all the updates since afaik radio cannot be updated via custom ROM?
[HTC One X] vivek_bhoj:
You can install updates if you want

Even after rooting you can upgrade radio in custom Rom you just can't update hboot after rooting though there is a process but its tricky

Can i rehtore all system + app data in TB when I change from CM10 HOS to CM10 Domination HOX?

Just keep that in mind

And also few games are not compatible on tegra which are compatible with one s
