Hey man..thanks for the updates..

I just have a few suggestions for you..

Can you also write down the last update date for the games?

Because for some games that I have downloaded, it have never

received any updates since last year..so if I can see the last update date first, right beside the name of the game,

it can give me second thought whether I want to download it or not.. :D :D :D

Here is the screenshot of my Kindle fire with JellyBean 4.1.1 and TouchWiz UI ^^!

It's quite easy to have it on our KFs : just download theme TouchwizUI (file apk) , link download : http://appstore.vn/android/home/app/8439

After install it, use root explorer and change the build.prop , focus the line (ro.sf.lcd_density=160), chang it 158 and reboot. After that, go in Setting> Theme and choose the touchwiz UI them... Voila... Enjoy it
[Kindle Fire General] smgulsby:

Does anyone know how to debrand Sony Xperia P from O2 in UK (or just in general) ?

I have done some searching and there is some question about boot loader locks on some providers' firmware. Is this the case for O2 UK ? Does the boot loader need to be unlocked to put on generic firmware or change model id ?

Here is a procedure I found for debranding Sony Xperia S:

http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/03/26/debrand-your-xperia-s-tutorial/

This seems to be just changing the id of the phone, which then allows the Sony update service to put on latest generic ROM

Can the same one be used for Xperia P ?

This is FINE for me, I don't need custom firmware I just want generic stock firmware

Sorry for newbie questions but this is my first Sony Android phone ;) (and a beautiful one it is too - no idea why this phone is not more popular)

thanks in adavance!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Psierra117:
Unlock your bootloader and flash the generic ics image... I think it will be the best possibillity

Gesendet von meinem Sony Xperia P mit Tapatalk 2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Half Alive:
Flash the generic firmware with Flashtool ..,

No need to Unlock your BL ..,some devices have unlockable Bootloader..,

But Flashing firmwares with Flashtool doesn't require an unlocked Or locked BL ..

It's easy as it sounds.. =)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] colonel:
thats great advice, thanks

just what I was looking for

1 question. If I flash the generic firmware, does the Sony update service then update it in furture with the generic firmware ?

Hi !

I succeed to partition my sd card (with MPW) after several try, and now, everything works fine for the apps.

But when I plug my phone on my pc, I can't activate USB Storage, it keeps loading for ever. And the PC doesn't show the card.

When I try to mount my /sdcard in CWM it returns an error

How can I mount it ?

[Galaxy S II General] Sun90:
Hey Guys i have often seen lot of Question regarding the same "How to set the file permission,sorry i am a noob please explain?"

well this we come across on all threads, at some given point of time.

Reason being simple that we suggest some people to do as said below:

Hey,

1) copy the file XXXX to your Internal or External sd-card.

2) push the file XXXX to sytem/xxxx folder.

3) set permissions to rw-r--r-- blah blah blah.

4) reboot your phone and see.

Then comes the question again from the same people as below:

Hey,

1) I have done accordingly, but really confused regarding File permission though please explain?

2) How to set File Permission?

3) what is rw-r--r-- blah blah i cannot get it? etc.

So this Simple Guide will defenetly help the people with the same.

Let me not go in depth regarding the same,Since this excellent Tutorial from Matt Doyle explain's in more detail about it

Understanding File Permissions- by Matt Doyle

In order to set the file permission all you need is to have Root explore/Browser or similar type of File manager app been installed on your phone, with Root access.

when you open the File manager you see all your files and folder listed there, thats not our main concern, but something below each one of those file's or folder's, what we are really interested in like:

under say Data folder you see something like 'rwxrwx--x' which is of real concern here.

when you long press on the same Data Folder a pop appears as below

Fig 1

and when you select Permissions in that pop up menu it appears as below.

Fig 2

as you can see in the pic above the permission is set to 'rwxrwx--x' (771 according to Table below)

So in order to set the right Permission for a file, after you have copied the file to the relavent folder, all you have to follow is the below steps and also the Table guide below it.

1)Any File Manager app like Root Explorer/Browser,Es-file explorer installed with root access (Do ensure to Mount as R/W (Read/Write)).

2)Find the File which you have copied to the appropriate Folder for which you have to set Permissions with the above installed file manager app.

3) Long press on the file to open a pop up menu as shown in Fig 1 above.

4)Set Permission accordingly ( been suggested by people for you) using the table guide below as reference.

5) Then reboot your phone for the same (Permission set) to take effect.

Table Guide for Reference

----------------------------------

No- Box is Unchecked, Yes- Box Checked

So, for example:

777 is the same as rwxrwxrwx

755 is the same as rwxr-xr-x

666 is the same as rw-rw-rw- and so on.

I do hope this Guide will come in handy to all those people who want to set filepermission, but need some clarity upon the same.

All Credit to Matt Doyle for his Excellent Tutorial on 'Understanding File Permissions' which being an inspiration for me to make this Guide.

And also like to Thank the XDA for this wonderfull Knowledge based Site.

All constructive Comments to improve the same by my fellow Member's are Welcome:)

[Galaxy S II General] thekingmen:
Sun90, you are missing a big piece of information

Table Guide for Reference

----------------------------------

there is no need to know each number with each permission set.

Read = 4

Write = 2

execute = 1

if you want to only read, it is 4.

If you want to read and execute, 4+1 = 5

read+write=6

read+write+execute=7.

noting = 0

This comes from our old binary system

where

read =100

write= 010

exec= 001

You do a binary addition and convert that back to the decimal system. 111 in binary (for read,write,execute) = 7 in decimal.
[Galaxy S II General] Sun90:
:laugh: thanks for the Info ma8, appreciated for sure:)

[Galaxy S II General] zeppelinrox:
Ah interesting.

I wondered how the values were determined.

I wanted to post something along those lines... how I remember them.

I find it easier to visualize so in my mind, I would just add the rows like so...

This way, I don't have to remember what's 755 because its...

X X X
X O X
X O X

Adding the top row gives a 7 and the next 2 rows add up to 5.

There is only a single way to get a 5 ;)

Of course, there is only a single way to get any value from 1 to 7 so you can't go wrong.

So the very common 644 would be

X X O
X O O
X O O

So if somebody says to apply something weird like chmod 653... you don't have to remember what it is... open up a root explorer and check off

X X O
X O X
O X X
[Galaxy S II General] Sun90:
thanks for that effort ma8, appreciated:)

but every new beginner will find it really difficult that way hence this guide;)
[Galaxy S II General] zeppelinrox:
Well it may be the way my brain is wired, but I find the yes/no chart in the OP difficult to digest lol

I seriously didn't "get it" until I understood that the first colum is 4, second column is 2 and 3rd colum is 1 and all I need to do is add the rows...

That's easy as 1, 2, 3 for me lol
[Galaxy S II General] Sun90:
:laugh: it all depends on how our brains will take the info, analyse and interprit the same for sure:)
[Galaxy S II General] Pungaa:
Thanks

Always wondered what those numbers meant :) - Have been toying with linux for years not really knowing.

Thanks for the excellent info :good:
[Galaxy S II General] noy-z:
This I can understand... especially with the accompanying diagram and thorough explanation.

To the OP, no offense, but I was expecting a more in-depth explanation of what these permissions meant. You did however, provide a link that I have yet to visit, that is supposed to do more explaining. So what is this thread for? To link to another thread? So why is this a featured article?

Sorry, after reading your "tutorial" I became even more confused. Granted, I'm not a total noob when it comes to fixing file permissions. But information like why this is needed, what the numbers actually mean, or even more screenshots would have been helpful.

Thanks, however, for your effort.
[Galaxy S II General] Sun90:
thank u very much ma8:)

the very purpose of the tutorial is for those people who really want to do file permission when there is a situation called for ma8, not to give an eloborated insight about the same and confusing people for sure:)
[Galaxy S II General] zeppelinrox:
No offense, but if somebody wanted to apply permissions quick but aren't sure what to check off, you are expecting them to remember the Yes/No chart as a reference or have this thread bookmarked.

If they are told to apply 431, and they have a yes/no chart as a reference, it doesn't seem intuitive.

All the rwxrwx's don't seem intuitive either. Which is why I found it difficult to grasp for quite awhile.

Maybe you can explain why you think it would be easy for a new user to remember but I figure if somebody only needs to know 3 numbers (the value of each column) without having to remember a bunch of other stuff, it's just pluggin in holes so things add up on 3 rows :p
[Galaxy S II General] Sun90:
No offense of any sort i find in ur post in the first place Sir:)

as i have already made it clear in my OP that "All Constructive Comments by my fellow members r welcome":)

well they very purpose of this guide was to simply save people there day, when it comes to doing 'FilePermission'. when the very same requirement arises for them, and finding difficulty in doing so.

i do certainly agree with u, that all we need is simply 3 numbers(the value of each column) and nothing else for sure.

but i did this just in case for people who doesnt want to have all those stuff, but just want to do the necessary thing(Filepermission) as the situation calls for and get along:)

and thats the very purpose of this guide.

i do respect ur advice for sure and will try to make things on 'Filepermission' more simple.

also would request urself to PM me when ever ur free with ur expertise on making the same more simple, so that i can make the necessary changes in the OP.

and thanks for ur valuable comment:)
