[General Questions and Answers] Charaxan:
Hi people,

I have a rooted Samsung galaxy S2 with Cyanogemod 9.

I am looking for an app who can restrict other apps from accessing to the gps and localisations services. I should be able to choose which can and which cannot.

Ideally, the app I am looking for should give this response to the apps accessing : "GPS/Localisation services are not activated in this device". I think it is better than the response "this app does not have the permissions to access to the GPS/Localisation services", which crash some apps.

So, am not looking for a permissions tweaker (but if you have a good free one I am interested) but for an app who can hide to other selected apps the GPS is running.

Thanks for help !

Hello,

Does Archos 80 g9 has a flash counter?

I rooted it, but now I need to use the warrenty. is there anything I need to do except unrooting and restoring stock?

thanx.

My device is overheating and works very slow after that. It happens after 7-10 minutes of use ,no matter which app(it can be Subway Surf and a heavy game like Asphalt 7). It is very annoying ,the phone works so slow and I cant play games...

God ,it is dual core device and I feel like I have my old xperia play :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
Is it on the latest 2.50 firmware?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sonic987:
Have u rooted your phone if it still lags................

Then

1)download cpu tuner

2)open it go to cpu

3) near gov select boot settings

4) then in option force all cpu select on boot completed

I did on my phone and its very fast but heating issues are not solved yet....

NOTE {{{{{{{{forcing all cpus online results in lower battery back up}}}}}}}}:angel:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] monivan:
I have a fix but the fix is for keeping your phone performance whether the phone is hot! Nothing can't be done to solve heat issue if u want to have a good performance!

The system is design to reduce heat once the cpu temperature is 55 Degree centigrade! It will clock ur cpu frequency to 810mhz to cool down the phone, but produce lag during game play or scroll!

However we can manage to change the point where it clocked down cpu frequency to whatever you like!

I've change mine to 65 degree then it will clock down the cpu!

To do it is to go to system/etc look for thermald-semc.conf

Modify through root explorer:

Iook for this

[MSM_THERM]

sampling 10000

thresholds 49 52 55 58 70

thresholds_clr 45 50 53 56 68

actions lcd lcd cpu lcd shutdown

action_info 192 128 810000 64 0

I've changed mine to:

[MSM_THERM]

sampling 10000

thresholds 49 52 65 58 70

thresholds_clr 45 50 63 56 68

actions lcd lcd cpu lcd shutdown

action_info 192 128 810000 64 0

It will no longer laggy once it hot! Until ot reaches 65 degree! It may be dangerous!

But so far, nothing happen to me! And i can play temple run brave smoothly, while before it'll be laggy in 5mn of game play!

Don't forget to hit thank, if i deserve it!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] davidbar93:
I'll try it now ,thank you!

Edit: It really works!! The device is still very hot after few minutes of use ,but not laggy.

Thanks a lot!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
But it shouldn't be hot. Flash the latest firmware, if you already have, flash it again. Something maybe not right causing the issue
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dotamaple:
Solve by using this way will cause serious damage to our device? :confused:

because seems no other way can solve this issue..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] monivan:
No! Only if you use ur device very hard and the temperature gain so high! It was design to clock down to 810mhz in 53 Celsius to decrease temperature! But we've change tov 63! So the device could get hotter than 53 and could go as high as 63 before clock down! To decrease temperature!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dotamaple:
Ya, so 63 or 65 Celsius is safe temp for our XS?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] monivan:
I don't know my phone never got as high as 63 or 65!

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

I think it will be fine since there's an automatically switch off at 68-70! So 65 is in the safe zone but i don't know abt any long term effect!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] biswa226:
In ICS good but cant change in JB update

I am using Xperia SL.

As you told I changed the threshold values while I was using ICS. But after updating to Jelly Bean I cant edit the file thermald-semc.conf. I can edit the values but not able to save the file. So it always reset. I dont know why this is happening. Please help. And thanks for the suggestion as it worked nice for my ICS.

After flashing my phone it can't connect to the mobile data network. I re-flashed the phone back to stock and it still doesn't work. On wi-fi the phone works fine. The 4g symbol shows up with the upload download arrows flashing but I don't get any signal.

Can someone please help me? I'm really frustrated...

Did you check maybe you lost the imei on the process of flashing
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If 4g is displsyed its probably not imei, but check it anyway.

Also turn off wifi calling and see if thst hss any affect.

I've tried multiple roms with different radios/modems but no luck.

The IMEI is still there. I don't know what the problem is... For example though, every time I try to go to a website, it gets automatically redirected to http://androidapi.t-mobile.com/apppack/mvno.html I doubt that means anything but just putting everything that I know.

I have the same issue and cant figure it out. Ill keep you posted if I figure something out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Exel:
Have you guys checked your APNs?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] leyvatron:
Tmobile has it set as a web2go plan.

Go to the the "acess tmobile" app and go to your plan and click upgrade. Done. Plan stays the same and everything works again.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mattpsx2:
I can't even go to any websites on my phone without wifi. When I tried to open that app it wouldn't let me because it said that I can't use wi-fi with it.

And I did "check" my APN, I don't really know if there's anything wrong with it. I'm actually doing this for a friend and I have a Sprint SG3 that I rooted with absolutely no problems. This t-mobile phone though is really trying my patience.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] leyvatron:
try it again. turn wifi off and run the app. It should take you to your account.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lazarat:
Just go return it then get another phone.

Hi folks,

i really enjoy using CM10 on my tiny little X8.

But the lockscreen bug is very annoying.

So i found out some settings which make the lockscreen quite responsive, even after deep suspend.

Here the are:

1. Remove all Apps from the lockscreen, even camera

2. Background: Standard

3. Clock position: centered

4. Batterystats: only when charging

5. No weather, no calendar

Locking delay enabled

timeout after 5 Secs.

delay after display off 10 Secs.

No vibration on unlock

**Update**: Set min frequency to 245 MHz

Maybe it helps someone.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Finire:
So I have to compliment Skinomi and there TechSkin products, and there amazing customer service.

I ordered a Dark Carbon Fiber Techskin for my TF700,

http://www.skinomi.com/sk11336-asus-transformer-pad-infinity-tf700-carbon-fiber-skin-protector.html

and loved it the moment it went on. But I may have messed up the edges as I put it on, so they started to peel back. I emailed Skinomi about the issue, and they offered to replace the skin free of charge, no shipping costs at all! I couldn't believe myself when they said that. Now I'm just waiting it's replacement. Because of there amazing support, I also ordered the skin for the dock. I had to ask them in the email, because it didn't come to mind to check in the TF201 section for the keyboard dock skin.

http://www.skinomi.com/sk10193-asus-transformer-prime-keyboard-dock-carbon-fiber-skin-protector.html

With both a replacement skin for the Tablet, and a skin for the keyboard dock on it's way, I'm going to be very happy in the next 1 to 2 days.

The support rep that I dealt with did make a suggestion that I never had thought of. Heat the Techskin with a hair dryer or heat gun immediately before applying it. The Techskin itself is quite thick, so heating it, and cleaning the tablet thoroughly with rubbing alcohol, should make the perfect application.

From the feel of the skin, it should protect against most anything from scratches to minor, waist high, drops. Once I get the new ones applied, I'll post pictures, and if I'm feeling very risky, I might even do a couple of tests on the skin and post reviews.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rikkoko:
I haven't ordered one yet, but I'm already eager to get it. Please post pics when you can! Product photos on Amazon won't do for me ;) I hope it will be worth it!
[Asus Transformer TF700] paddycr:
Skinomi are great. I have their clear skins for all of my devices including the TF700 and dock. I had a problem with one of them peeling away at the edge a bit after a few months. I messed up putting another one on. They replaced both of them - no questions. This company really knows how to do customer service.

[Asus Transformer TF700] HoushaSen:
2 Drawsbacks

So I've had a skinomiskin for awhile but did not apply until recently (as this one was replacement of original skin). The product itself and customer service are phenomenal, but you have to watch out couple thing for Transformer Infinity.

1. Docking to mobile dock suddenly become extremely tight and to the point, I forced it in and ended up peeling the edge of the skin. Even with such a push, latch still did not lock. It was usable as keyboard input still seemed to work, but such tight fit makes me a bit concerned. Until the skin, my dock was a perfect fit.

2. Jot Touch sensitivity decrease - Still not a perfect stylus experience as Galaxy Note 10.1, which make sense since its the major selling feature of the device. But Jot Touch with Infinity gives alright performance without skinomi skin; however, with it on becomes poor. If you write big I think still fine, but try to write as small as you can that's when how true writing peformance on tablet can become noticeable.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Finire:
The one thing I did with my Techskin, was not apply the screen protector. I love the Techskin for the outer protection though.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Christian465:
Is there any places I could take the tab and skin to to apply it? I honestly don't trust myself to put it on as perfectly as I want it to
[Asus Transformer TF700] Finire:
I know places like Staples and Best Buy will usually do that for around $10-20, but if you use a heat gun, or hair dryer, while you're doing it... you can pull it back up a little and re-adjust as needed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cidorov:
Just arrived

Just got mine in the mail. When I line up the camera holes at the top, the asus logo doesn't line up. :( When I ordered it from their web site they didn't have the tf700 carbon as a set for the dock and tablet. I called them and They said the one for the Prime was the exact same thing. I hope they make good on their word, cause I'm not so sure this is gonna work. I just checked the images on their web site and the Prime only has two holes on the back. I'll give them a call Monday. Just to let you know to beware. If I'm not mistaken, the one they sell for the tf700 doesn't have cutouts for the dock.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rkalas:
Skinomi + TranSleeve. Will it work?
[Asus Transformer TF700] cidorov:
Called & they sent me the correct skin in three days. Very easy to install. Tip - Slightly heated with a blow dryer before applying. Looks great!
[Asus Transformer TF700] arbuckle:
I ordered a techskin for my tablet (TF700), as well as the transformer prime dock techskin for my TF700 dock (which is actually the same as the transformer prime dock anyway). The skins are a very good fit, and the tablet still easily slides in and out of the dock with the skin on. I'm still a bit worried about the protection of the corners of the tablet: the skin doesn't reach that far.

On a scale between 0-100, I'd give this a 85.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wotlos:
Long time Skinomi customer

I've purchased Skinomi skins for various other devices in the past, and have always been happy with the service especially and most times their product. So when I purchased my TF700T I went with the Skinomi dark wood skin (tablet only, don't have my dock in yet) I just got done applying it and I must say the design looks great, but I wasn't to thrilled with the cut of the corners. They just didn't have enough material their to really grip and stick onto the flat rounded edges of the infinity's corners. So I did a little manacuring and left the little things that tabs off, still looks good and I won't be flicking them and peeling them back all the time now. On the other hand the clear screen protector is a nightmare! I have absolutely no luck at putting these on and have always resulted in removing them days after application due to unwanted hairs and tiny specs that somehow find their way in there when applying. So perhaps the key is to have like a clean room with no moving air or dust, I dunno, I'm fine with just the back skin anyhow, I like the feeling of the super slick glass.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jolt9157:
To those who have bought this: is this a viable alternative to ghost armor? I recently placed my order for the GA, but $80 for the skin and the screen protector ($40 for the screen protector alone) seemed a bit steep.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tweeklulz:
if you get the carbon fibre flavor it looks like it's the exact same material from 3M, so ghost armor is just overpriced techskin. unless they have some sort of magical laser cutting that makes it better than a perfect fit..
[Asus Transformer TF700] jolt9157:
Thanks for the info. I'm primarily concerned about screen protector placement. Any idea what the people at the kiosks do that justifies the price?
