Doing well ... waiting to see the new HTC One, and what Samsung will bring with the GS4. What are your thoughts, Ken? Any chance we could gather the old group back together?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] OMJ:
my wife got the Note 2 just b4 Christmas, it's a sweet phone, I almost switched....luckily JB came soon after for the Evo, something new to play with.

I was considering switching to Samsung for my next phone, since they seem to be more dev friendly & HTC seems to be going the opposite direction. I haven't decided yet, I'll have to wait and see....
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nathanotis:
I'll be putting this ROM on my wife's ns4g today. Glad to find a solid stock/rooted rom!

Quad Lock Screen

Well I went ahead and blacked out at the Indy500 and lost my precious Evo4G LTE. It was dead so I couldn't use the GPS app. I seriously would have much rather had my girlfriend cheat on my with Roy Hibbert than lose my baby. I have insurance but I really don't have $150 right now and I don't think a refurbished EVO is really worth that much. My buddy works for Asurion so I'm hoping he will alert me if it drops a tier. I have 60 days to file a claim anyways. I'm using my brothers old Nexus S 4G and to tell you the truth, this isn't a bad little phone. I really miss facebook integration, widgets, and LTE but hey, it's just a phone.

I just flashed this rom because I always use roms based on the stock image. My opinion is they just work bettter. My upgrade isn't for another 6 months so I may just ride it out. I'm really hoping to wait on the HTC T6 although the HTC One will probably be at a ridiculous price by that time (yes I will go back to HTC as I am a fan for life). Anyways here is my first contribution to the Nexus S 4G community. It's a quad lock with phone and messages for the sprint stock 4.1.1. Thank to atl4tis for the guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1797848

I'm hoping somebody can direct me to the coding to make the ring show up before the pattern lock so I can have both. That's another thing I miss about the HTC lockscreen.

My neighbor found my Evo in his yard. I will still try to contribute to the Nexus S community but right now my USB port is borked so I'm waiting to replace it. As of now I am back to the Evo community.

Ok, here is my problem. My conutry code is 505, I have my contact list, if I received an sms it will show the number not the name in my contact, so I discover that is when a Contact write to me some time (think is a network related stuff) it adds an +505 to the number I have in contact, so my phone does not link that sms to my contact. And If I tried to fix adding the +505 to the contact number it now shows the name in sms, but when they called me....it shows just the number...its a little confusing. Is there a way to fix that?
[HTC One X] strikerdj2011:
any one know of a way to check if one of my cores on the one if is not working or on its way out phones bean slow ish for past few days i know bench marks dont matter but i do them all the time and i used to get over 14000 on cpu only on quadrant were it tells u io / ram / cpu and stuff but now its not seeming to go over 11000 which is making be believe one of the cores is broke any ideas people am using arHD 9.6.0 and faux 010u
[HTC One X] xbiggyl:
You can try any of those two:

CPU Spy (free)

Tablet CPU Usage monitor (Paid)
[HTC One X] backfromthestorm:
system tuner (free) has all cores showing
[HTC One X] treebill:
One core 1.7

Two cores 1.6

Four cores 1.4

Assuming you opt for uli oc and have a v3 chip.

Quadrant isn't a good bench mark as the.scores vary way to much to make it a good indicator antutu is better, try antutu the hox normally scores between 10 - 12 k on it.
[HTC One X] strikerdj2011:
thanks alot for the help people and i have just tried antutu and got a score of 12500 is that about right variant 2 full quad core 1.55 faux010u

Attention: Google account/play store issue

I ran into the problem of play store not loading today and spent most of the day trying to fix it. the problem was bigger as it wouldn't allow most gapps to work either such as YouTube and even gmail wouldn't sync. I figured out that a lot of Muslim countries have banned most things relating togoogle due to the controversial movie "Innocence of Muslims" which isextremely enraging and hateful. Since Google owns YouTube and not taking enough action to ban the video most of the Muslim countries have blocked a good portion of Google and its services hence Android smartphones in these regions will suffer greatly. My workaround to connect to Google services was connecting through a VPN service (hotspot shield). That aside this made me curious and I decided to check out the video trailer of this film and as a law abiding muslim us citizen studying medicine abroad in a Muslim country I was appalled and disgusted and couldn't even watch the whole video. So anyone facing Google sign in account issues in foreign countries this is most likely the reason and not the custom ROM itself.

I was on Safe Mode from Safestrap 2.0 running Eclipse, Switched back to unsafe for a second (stock), and now when trying to toggle back it fails to backup my stock.

Is is alright if I quick toggle over to safe system since Eclipse is still there and backed up??

[HTC Wildfire S] cmoe:
Hi,

i am also one of those having problems with Hense-Mod bootloops. Ill Describe it once again:

My WFS is

MARVEL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT 1.08.0000

RADIO 7.54.39.28M

Oct 31 2011,20:38:16

Its an european WFS (germany O2).

Now to my Problems: At the beginning, i flashed the marvelCsuperwipe zip file. Then I did exactly like in the description of HenseMod (WITH Custom MDT skripts, I even did an extra format for system data and cache like told in MDT-Recovery.zip). After install and reboot, I do the Android setup, then, no matter if or if not I setup noFrills CPU Controll and link2sd, the next reboot will result in a bootloop (showing the bootsplashvideo, then stopping and rebooting). Free Data memory is a lot over 100MB (which means to me that MDT skripts are working well).

I have done several reinstalls, also several WITHOUT the use of Custom MDT Skripts. I then dont have bootloops anymore. All is working well despite of a little detail: Link2SD, NoFrills, FileExpert, Titanium arent there after Setup - in none of my attemts to install. As i do not know, which other things are also missing now, I am not satisfied with this result. Also The browser link i only called android.com.browser and not startable. Free Memory is around 70MB which means to me, custom MDT is not working anymore.

Do you have any clue what may have gone wrong?

Thanks,

cmoe
[HTC Wildfire S] cmoe:
solution

Hi again!

To all those having the same bootloop issues:

After Installation of kimsmod, it was even was not possible to boot the rom once after install so i realized, something must have been wrong with my device. Though i wiped the device and removed the partitioning, i never reinstalled recovery. After getting android SDK to work and reinstalling the recovery via fastboot command (as described in many threads), i reinstalled the MTD-recovery and it worked like a charm. After reinstalling recovery again, KimsMod also did his job.

Hope this post is helpful to you!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navdeep2687:
Hello everybody, I updated my Xperia ARC S to ICS before two months. But I downgraded this to gingerbird using flashtool, because teathering wifi hotspot was not working in this update.

But now i want to again update my Xperia to ICS, as Sony has given update to ICS, it may have fixed the teathering wifi hotspot problem. But when I connect my phone to Sony Update Service, it shows that my phone is up to date.

I have tried to update this with flashtool also. But there it shows error after completing 75% process. I don't in this process, there is problem with .ftf file or something else. But i could not find any other file to download. So i donloaded the same I have now. But it is not updating.

Please advise, what should I do?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LuckyJ26:
I too am looking for a Camera app that lets you touch a selected area to focus. I initially thought Jelly bean would have this feature on default like they do with the GNex, but I guess I was wrong..

For touch to focus you need to use a TW based rom.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrzoderer:
Ok well im fairly new to the wonderful world of rooting and im in need of some assistance. I have done Quite a lot of research and i was fairly confident in what i had learned so i decided to root my kindle. Wellllllll... Things arent going as well as i had hoped and my kindle is frozen. I know exactly what is wrong with it but i need a solution. Ok well i installed kfu (Kindle fire utility) and i updated my drivers and started the root process and it switched to fastboot and started to install fff (firefirefire) and it froze right then and there but i didnt realize it so i waited and waited but it still says installing fff... waiting for device and it dosnt do anything the bootloading screen on my kindle is just the stock kindle fire screen and it isnt moving or anything so im a bit confused. The other thing is that my kindle wont register on anything and it wont show up on device manager but i think that is because it is frozen. I would much appreciate some help if you can.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
try rerunning the driver bat that came with kfu but many get stuck in your spot or try resetting the bootmode to normal ....
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrzoderer:
well i already reran the drivers but it didnt do anything because my kindle wont show up in the device manage and how do you reset the bootmode
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
selection 1 bootmodes choose normal

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 PM ----------

also if you are not stuck in between a commited option you can such as sending recovery or bootloader leave your kindle plugged to your computer hold the power button down till it turns off then power it back on

Edit:truthfully selecting the permanent root option is a bad Idea because windows stupid drivers do not know how to adjust to the sudden change of drivers.. because your driver needs to change from android adb composite interface to android adb interface thus confusing windows and how the utility is supposed to properly run my guess is very likey if you cant get your drivers sorted you will need to take alternate routes.. may even require the purchase of a factory cable to implement a fix...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrzoderer:

Hi,

Wasn't sure what forum to post in so here's my problem: I have a galaxy s2 (rooted) and an app or something else on my phone is sending out a paid text message. The cost is minor, around 10 pence a message but i would still like to know what is sending this message. It has done this a few times already. When i check my mobile bill (I am on Orange UK) it doesn't say where the message is being sent. I have normal apps on my phone nothing dodgy.

Any help will be appreciated.....

Try using an app like LBE privacy guard or Permissions explorer to see which apps have the ability to send text messages.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidCarter93:
How often does it send the messages?

I only ask this because if it's frequent enough, an option would be to uninstall your apps one at a time so you'd be able to narrow it down to the exact app.

I'm a product of the system I was born to destroy!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josetann:
I'm trying to tackle my problem from another angle. So, does anyone know how to disable the touch screen on a Galaxy S2?

I'm trying to have the screen off while an app runs (and thinks the screen is on). I can turn the screen off by this command:

echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/samsung-pd.2/s3cfb.0/graphics/fb0/blank

Screen will be off, but it still responds to touch. I figure there's probably a similar command to disable the touchscreen. I found a thread that describes how to do it for the nook; however it won't work on this phone (obviously because the hardware's different).

I've seen apps that may disable the touchscreen...however I won't have access to the notification bar while in the app I want to run (frustrating). I plan on creating a script that'll sleep for 2-3 minutes, giving me enough time to get to the app and set it up just the way I want, then the screen will go out. To get the screen back on, I'll either wait until I can ssh in and undo what I did (in the example above, just substitute echo 0 instead of echo 1) or do a hard reboot.

Edit: This may be OS dependent...I'm running ICS 4.0.3 at the moment.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acekay:
Use below:

# To Disable touchscreen

service call window 18 i32 0

# To Enable touchscreen

service call window 18 i32 1

I use this in my Gesture script thanks to Tungstwenty.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josetann:
Looks like it'll be good enough for my purposes.

I've now realized it might be ever so slightly helpful if I could disable the home and power buttons as well (but not all the buttons, might need volume). I think if I keep it in a pocket or make a little space for it where it won't get disturbed too much, it'll be ok.

Just a note, this doesn't completely turn off the touchscreen. The phone still reacts to touching the screen (specifically, the menu and back buttons light up). And touching the menu or back button will also cause them to light up and make the phone vibrate, though the button is ignored otherwise (i.e. you're in the app, press the back button...it lights up and vibrates the phone, but it does NOT exit the app).

I'll test it in a couple weeks (once the headset and amplifier come in), but I think it'll fit the bill.

Thanks!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zeroth:
hey guys i need little help lol! i'm new with my evo lte i was on evo 3d before ;) ! well i now i don't know which Development forum is for my EVO LTE there is 2 :

HTC EVO 4G LTE Android Development

HTC EVO 4G LTE Original Android Development

how do i know the right one for my phone?

:(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] premo15:
They're both for our phone. For the most part, original development will have kernels and roms that are based on aosp or are unique enough from stock that they are considered original. The regular development forum is mainly for modified stock roms. There is a lot of debate about which roms fall under which category, so your best bet is to just check both development forums if you're looking for something.

Sent from my EVO LTE

Anything is appreciated.

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
I'm definitely not a dev, but what kind of ROMs do you want to make?

Do you just want a modified/themed stock ROM or do you want to learn how to build from source?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tonyec7:
well right now im wanting to do a modified/themed stock rom, but i do want to learn how to build from source.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Idk what I can say about making themed stock ROMs other than check out dsixda kitchen and uot kitchen. In my opinion I don't like themed stock ROMs. They are all pretty much the same with a different theme and the devs keep releasing full ROMs calling them something new but in reality it's just a new theme.

On the other hand for building a ROM from source, do some research on source.android.com and wiki.cyanogenmod.com

You can also join everyone on irc.freenode.net channels #ics-dev-e4gt and #jb-dev-e4gt and just see what the devs are working on, most are willing to help out and give advice, even for noobs like me.

Release themes! Not full stock ROMs!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
I know we're derailing this topic, but in my opinion we don't need all these themed ROMs. Just wrap it all up in 1 zip, flash it over the stock ROM it was built for, and voila... you have a themed/modified stock ROM.

Back to the topic, if you want to learn about ROM development you can learn a lot from what I posted earlier and just browsing XDA.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mrpotato00:
Not true. They release new fixes.
[Transformer TF300T General] damagedgoods:
I keep reading urgent, frantic messages of desperate people and their bricked tablets....until we hear different you cannot downgrade back to Ice Cream Sandwich once you have flashed Jellybean bootloader.

Its been mentioned before but please remember to READ before you PROCEED.

Be safe.
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
I 2nd this. The only way to go back to ICS is to get another tablet with ICS on it. Once you are on jb, that's it. There are so many changes under the hood with the jb update that it's most likely not going to happen.
[Transformer TF300T General] ctibor:
No, you are not completely right.

It must be possible somehow since the Asus Service Centre of my country (Hungary) offered me to put back the ICS ROM when I complained about the bugs of the JB upgrade. They wrote me they would do it free of charge, covering by the warranty, because my ROM it's pure stock, without unlocking.

It's another story that now, after receiving the fresh OTA update I may not want to get back to ICS...
[Transformer TF300T General] paedz718:
I agree with the above poster. I was locked and did the OTA JB update, which completely borked by tablet. I sent it back RMA'd to ASUS with JB and got it back with ICS. It was definitely the same pad since I had a long scratch on the back. They were able to do it somehow
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
Perhaps they were able to do something similar to nvflash only more enhanced. When I made my statement, it was referring to us normal tablet owners, not to those that work for the manufacturer. :). This is good confirmation though, thanks for that.
[Transformer TF300T General] paedz718:
No problem. If we were somehow able to get our hands on whatever ASUS has to be able to do that, we would be able to unbrick ourselves in the future if anything went wrong. That would a powerful tool to have
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
And a revenue loss for them for what they make on repair costs so don't hold your breath lol.
[Transformer TF300T General] lawrence750:
Wouldn't they have the tools necessary to flash literally everything, so any old stuff including bootloader would effectively be overwritten, and then no problem for reverting back

I suspect that they have dedicated hardware for this purpose, makes it way more secure
[Transformer TF300T General] udreamibuild:
Yeah i'm sure they know since they built it. To bad they will probably never let us know :(
[Transformer TF300T General] herschwolf:
I'm too scared to try it, but I might be tempted if someone with NVFlash that can recover if it doesn't work, but the following link HERE says we can revert to the .30 ICS Bootloader from the .13 JB Bootloader.

Can anyone confirm or willing to test the capability for me?
[Transformer TF300T General] mikaole:
It is already confirmed by xplowild on his CM10 thread. He was using NVflash to jump back all the time.

Because I am on JB I cant confirm it myself, cause I cant use NVflash:(
