[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aCs_ND:
Need a charging jack & battery

======================

Hello

I need a charging jack for MB 526 Defy Plus.

[] If anyone has one to sell, please respond.

[] If anyone from Delhi, India reads this thread and can point me to a a repair shop, that will work too.

Also is there any source for batteries for Defy Plus?

Cheers
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Riyal:
Hello! I am currently looking at the HTC One X kernel sources and I would like to ask some devs here if someone knows where the battery capacity is hardcoded in the kernel? Seems like HTC One X has the battery statically coded to 1800000mAh and I would like to change it but can't locate it. Hoping some experienced devs here could help me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GibMcFragger:
I don't get it. Why would you want to change it? It doesn't change the battery capacity or make the battery magically bigger....

Beamed from my Twin Turbo powered TN Special Edition powered HOXL.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Riyal:
I know :) It's about porting to another HTC device which has a lower capacity battery.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] d9vabder:
Just a Question,

I was wondering if it would be possible in future builds to have more CM settings/UI customizations, that would be AWESOME.

Like an ICS AOSP/KP ROM would really kick butt & a Fat Donation would have to be given out.

Maybe ROM Control in the actual settings to control General Behavior, UI Interface, Battery for different icons etc, more Toggles would be nice,

But, I'm a noobie to the Sidekick 4G and I don't know much about the hardware, for example, Samsung & Odin + CM & Gingerbread is a miracle,

and developers literally do the impossible.

Thanks guys.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] flapflip22:
There's actually a thread dedicated to cm7 development, which would lead to MIUI. Me and 2 freinds actually have actually compiled a VERY unstable alpha cm6 rom which could potentially lay some footwork for a more stable cm7. We had a sk4g for awhile but the rom bricked our phone, and no amount of odin could salvage it. It ran fine in oracle but I guess the poor thing couldn't handle it :/ well, if we come across another sidekick or get someone to donate an old one we could definitly get development back on track.

With time though.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] bhundven:
I'm also making an effort on cm6 here: https://github.com/sk4g-cm

I was also thinking the same thing. If I can get cm6 working properly, we can try running cm7 on a modified version of the cm6 kernel. Much like we do for sgs4g.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] flapflip22:
Either way, its a pain in the ass -.-
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] bhundven:
I never heard anyone say it was going to be easy, but after you've done it once... it's not so bad ;)

In the words of bob the builder: Can we fix it?

...

Well, ya, I think so.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] d9vabder:
^^^ haha, I'm interested in learning how to work on phones. What are some programs you use for developing on the Sk4G? And can you please throw up some screen shots of your CM rom?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] flapflip22:
^^^ yeah I will when I get home, its gonna have to run off of eclipse because its too unstable for use on another phone again yet. And I would reccomend starting with a rom kitchen and learning java at codecademy.org/com (not sure) then move to manually compiling roms. I learned python, java, and c++ before I even went near android. Its not too hard once you get the hang of it, its just repetitive at times :/ if you want to help me out, I can teach you. But you'll be starting off with repetitive theming :p
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] d9vabder:
Okay, Yea, I was going to take an intro to C++ this semester, but I didn't feel like doing stupid coding for clocks and hours and just the basic bs that comes in learning with intro classes.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyredneck:
Hi peoples can someone tell me whats going on here please...

I have the FPse emulator with Theme Park and Command & Conquer (classics!) both working fine but i just tried installing another ROM which is Crash Bandicoot 2 (USA).cue. So i unzipped the file and tried to load the ISO and this error message appears saying

!! ERROR !! Cannot find .bin file! .bin file must be named as the .cue file.

Sounds like something simple really but I'm only just starting to learn how to do these things so if someone could show me the way to deal with this little hiccup i would be like many others on here very much appreciative, thanks Tom
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khayamxs:
You can download a specific emulator from here : MOD EDIT: Links Removed

And as for the games you have search them on the website and you will find .bin files if i remember correctly :P
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyredneck:
Thanks for your reply

But why do i need a specific emulator? I have one already that plays games and works very well. And i cant seem to find any .bin files anywhere. I'm getting my games from DOPEroms. Any suggestions mate?

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbyredneck:
Thanks for your help matey, but isn't that the BIOS file? Because i have that already. I believe without that you can't play any games (right?...) but i have 2 games running already. I don't think this is my issue. I don't know what to think really i wish i knew more about this stuff
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Persevere80:
Rom buddy and cool roms are my favorite.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bombasti:
What is the size of your .cue file? Usually you have a .cue fila and a .bin or .iso

From my experience i can say that the .bin file contains the game and the .cue file the soundtrack. So if you try to start the .cue file the emulator will look for the bin file to run the game.

You could try to search another download for the rom or maybe if your .cue file is like 700mb u could rename it to .bin and try again (this is just an idea, but maybe it's total crap :D)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] james44422:
With the greatest respect this error does speak for itself...

!! ERROR !! Cannot find .bin file! .bin file must be named as the .cue file.

As other posters have mentioned, when you have a .cue file and a .bin with it. When you downlaoded this ROM you should have had a folder with at least two files, one .bin and the .cue file. Check the folder again, if not try downloading from another source.

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this issue..!

I use Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro MK16I. (Rooted, Bootloader unlocked).

Recently I had issues syncing contacts with Google, Fb etc and I had to do a factory reset of the phone. Since then I've following issues so far. :crying:

1. Incoming calls are getting rejected automatically

2. Silent, Flight mode are missing when I press the power button

3. When I'm in some application and if I press the Menu/Home button, it does not take me to the home screen and nothing happens

4. Windows can't detect or install the drivers for the phone, even if I do it through the 3rd party sources windows still doesn't show it.

Anyhelp would be appreciated, thanks

The New Boston

The new boston has a 200 video series on android application development. It's a little bit dated but if you go to http://thenewboston.org/index.php. It shows you specifically how to develop for android 2.2 (froyo). that being said most (if not all) of those applications should fun just fine on any OS 2.2 and above.

The main things is that you are using the API level from 2.2 so unless you change it later on you won't be able to use newer features. BUT... it can take someone from 'eeerrr I think this be mah keyburd' to 'Yeah, i just wrote and android app and put it on the market. BYAAAH!!!'.

Definitely worth checking out. I checked it out and when they came out they were cuttign edge pretty much (like a year ago lol).

HA... I just realized that you said ROMS. well that is a completely different story... that is really trial and error until you figure out how everything works.

If you aren't running on ubuntu then download virtual box:

https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads

Once you have that the EASIEST way to get started is to download the ISO for ubuntu 10.04:

http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/

Once you have created the Virtual machine with ubuntu 10.04(simply because it is the best for development):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC6jSiGSbUE

Then I recommend to get your environment setup you follow the instruction at the below site:

Now that I actually read what you were askign for and am not a complete tard... hope this helps.

[General Questions and Answers] thebobp:
roms are also largely in java (or davlik, anyway)

You can start by compiling something like CM10 (not an easy task, I might add).

Most devs begin because there's something they are itching to have but that doesn't exist. Once you've successfully compiled, you can start tweaking these things in.

Well, anything that is comparable to stock sense camera app? Especially, the panorama and instant burst are hard to beat.

Stock CM9 camera works most but burst mode is too many steps to reach (and fixed) and panorama mode gives poor resolution.

For effect cam, there are lots of apps, such as, camera360, cameraMX, cameraFX, etc.... those are not hard to find.

Please share your idea :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] perry_henis:
Hi all,

I've been trying to follow a few threads from the Canadians running the i747 S3 but haven't found a definitive answer.

I found a seller on kijiji with a rooted and unlocked (originally Telus) S3. I'm with Bell.

Am I going to have to flash the stock Bell image before I go to the Bell store to activate it? The bloatware and what not from Bell doesn't bother me, I just want to be SURE that I can take his phone and activate it on the Bell network without any issues with performance.

Can I simply take his Telus version that's unlocked and use it with Bell along with Telus' stock image?

I'm mostly new to the Android world and coming from an iPhone 4s... my apologies in advance if any of my terms are out of context.

Thanks for reading
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sm625614:
Yes their all the same device i747M im using a bell s3 on the rogers network lte and everything
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] perry_henis:
Just to clarify...

Did the Rogers store put their bloatware on your previous Bell phone? And is it a matter of putting my sim card in the phone from my previous iphone 4s to activate it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Its_Dave:
Im sure someone will correct me if im wrong, but if you have an iphone4s you should just need to put your sim card in the new phone and you'll be fine. The Cell providers don't really care what phone you have just the data and minute plans attached to that sim card.

If you had a BlackBerry Plan it would be different cause your new phone wouldn't work on that type of plan because the amount of data an iphone or s3 use it way different than a blackberry does.

And since both those phones use micro sim you should be good to go, just bring your micro sim card with you, plug it into the phone your wanting to buy, give it a few mintues and everything should work, make a phone call send a text before you buy it. Shouldn't have to bring it to the store or anything if you already have an active sim card
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sm625614:
no i didnt even bring it to the rogers store. Just unlock the phone you will be using and put your sim in and your working. No need to activate it like a iphone
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ejatds:
your iphone 4s micro sim card i don't think would work well with the s3. you'll need to buy the lte micro sim from bell.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jimmyct:
Your iPhone 4S micro sim will work with the galaxy s3 just fine without connectivity issue. You just won't have LTE.

If you want LTE, then you'll need to change to a LTE micro sim.

I woke up this morning with the intention of rooting my Galaxy S3 and installing CWM. I was following the instructions in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1739426. I wrestled with just getting my computer to recognize my S3, and after 8 hours, a BSOD, and wiping everything off my phone, I finally had the drivers connected and managed to root it.

I'm at the part where I need to access the adb through the Command Prompt. I installed the Android SDK on my computer and all packages related to ICS and JellyBean. I open the command prompt and try to access the adb, but it keeps saying "'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file."

Its basically typing out the path you take through the folders to get to adb. For example:

C:/Program files(x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools

This is just an example, and it may not be the complete and actual path on your computer. You can also go to the platform-tools folder, press control + shift, then right click within the folder, choose open command prompt

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] robin48:
My Skyrocket finally died so tomorrow Im getting a new phone. I'm leaning toward the Note, but also thinking about the S3. I think you Note owners could clue me in. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Well ...

The answers here will likely sway toward the note ...and the S3 has it's fair share of issues ...(they all do )

And having no use of the S3 under my belt...I'll say this ..

Samsung built a good device here. Not great, but good. And I like it's ability to take punishment in the flashing sense.

This note is arguably unbrickable, and the phone just works.

It's not dense, it's not a powerhouse , and it's not the fastest thing on the street. But then we get to the BIG BEAUTIFUL SCREEN !!!

Sammy did good here, with the strong resolution, and gorilla 2 cover, it's a thing of beauty to look at .

All glass, all the time. And not a better view to be had at the moment. Even the note 2 won't look this good ..(fact )

So if you want a very capable , flashable device, that functions well on it's current platform ...then note 1 is it.

It's a proven device with a quality chipset, and can handle pretty much anything you can throw at it.

My only complaints are these:

No built in notification LED, and a small battery.

But honestly, a BLN app solves the first, and with the bigger battery and cover ....it's simply a surfing, movie watching, and music playing beast ...

Now get off the internet, and go buy one ...LOL

Edit: I forgot to mention the great development base, and the abundance of custom software for the note..

If you go S3 ...you'll wait a while for this level of support.

Yes I'm bias, because I know how well the note runs...(using Flappjaxxx. IMM76D UCLF6 build #5)(shameless plug for an awesome developer)

Damn nice ...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jw98029:
Had a chance to play with both:

S3 is significantly faster (e.g. web browsing) and lighter. The screen seemed a bit brighter/sharper too. It can be bought with 32/64GB builtin space, before adding an extra 64GB card. Has the novetly/wow factor.

Note is best at horizontal resolution (800 vs. 720, a feat not even matched by the new Note II), and obviously screen size, and these make it most suitable for office use, web surfing and videos. S-pen comes handy for precision operations, and the hover cursor icon feels reassuring for heavy computer users. Harder to use with a single hand, if you don't have big hands. It has an extra Search button, which I find useful.

TL;DR

If you need a great tablet/computer replacement without the extra bulk, get the Note.

If you do a lot of real-time social stuff on-the-fly (e.g. Instagram), get the S3 (more nimble/agile/speedy when fractions of a second matter).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] adrienned:
I would say get a bunk phone and wait til the galaxy note 2 comes out. It was already announced and looking at the comparison reviews the note 2 will be a lot faster and with a wider screen. Plus the 64gb capacity. I love my Note but why buy it when you can wait a little while and be set? The note 2 looks like it would be worth the wait.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jw98029:
Note 2 has a taller screen, but it's _narrower_ than Note, in spite of the slightly larger diagonal (due to the different aspect ratio):

The Note screen is 2.8 inches wide (800 pixels).

The Note 2 screen is 2.7 inches wide (720 pixels).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ArborRes:
Galaxy Note II has a much better screen than Note I.

It has a new sub pixel arrangement that enhances the color representation and offers more clarity than the original Note.

Also, the new resolution better supports movie viewing experience by offering less black area as it fits the HD movie fully to the screen.
