Does CM10 have the red mono color like cm7 used to? Think they had green and blue as well. Thought it was a nice addition. Gets old after a day or so. People will still be all like how u do that?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VicDor:
Hi, guys!

Please don't lynch me for being a noob, I have used search button and I have looked in the threads the forum offered when I wrote in the title, and still found nothing that'll help me.

I recently bought a generic media streamer from DX.com (SKU 112201).

It's compact, light and runs Android 2.2 on a 1GHz CPU, 256MB RAM and 2GB flash memory (though if I looked in the right place there are only about 200MB of storage space).

The little box is not only full of magic but also many chinese apps (some of which open up the same interface) that I have no use for, not to mention the whole OS is chinese/engrish with errors popping up every minute.

The streamer runs slow and often hangs and I can't for some reason find certain apps in the Play Store when they're on the top of the list on other devices (probably chinese censorship or something).

I can easily find a guide to reinstalling firmware on my htc sensation xe, but I got nothing on this device.

My question to you is: does anyone know how to install a clean-no-third-party-apps Android 2.2 on a streamer or knows where I can get the guide?

Also, do you think I should even bother getting this thing working at its optimal capacity given its specs?

Thanks in advance and again sorry for my noob!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VicDor:
Ok, nevermind rewriting the thing, I figured out it's just a weak mainboard that looks like it was taken from a phone and (poorly) molded into a Media Player interface. The programs that bug me I can remove or disable, all I have to do is find a proper TV app that would work on this hunk-a-junk.

I still have an issue though - the device is supposed to have a 2GB internal storage memory and indeed it says "2GB" under "FLASH Memory" in the storage settings, but I have absolutely no access to it?

Can anyone please help me with this?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] miniblue:
I have 5.5.0.4 on a micro SD and 6.0.1.3 internal via the flashable recovery in the SGT 7 + CM 10 post. The 6.0.1.3 has crashed on two different nandroid backups and so far appears to be ok on restore. The Micro SD recovery 5.5.0.4 has never crashed. Should I reflash 6.0.1.3 or just keep using the micro SD recovery?

Thanks,

I say go with whatever works best right now. I've been using the first ever CWM released for the NT since it was released and have had no problems. The only reason you'd really ever have to use a newer version is some users have reported flashing CM10 only works in the 6.x.x.x CWM versions.

Agreed! I've been using TWRP (version 2.1.4, though) for a few months, and it hasn't ever had a single hiccough. It's flashed every ROM I've thrown at it without problems -- it's probably one of the most bullet-proof pieces of software I've ever used on a mobile device...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blauder:
Help please.

My Epic 4G Touch suddenly said my battery went from 94% last night to 0%

I've tested and wall charged all my batteries, even re-flashed my ROM and still get the same reading on the phone.

Plugged in, it works, but if I unplug it, it shuts down immediately.

I have work deadlines to meet and I'm a little frazzled. Am I screwed??

Thank you for any and all advice!

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysticCobra:
I got my DINC shortly after they became available in May 2010. If I recall correctly, the OS at launch was 2.1.

It wasn't too long before 2.2 was pushed as an OTA upgrade. Maybe September of that year, ish? (Maybe I'm mis-remembering, and it launched with 2.2 and the OTA upgrade was to the first version of 2.3.)

Regardless, one thing I thought was odd about that first OTA "upgrade" was that while my DINC supported 5GHz 802.11n with the original OS, that capability was removed from the "upgraded" version. Only 2.4GHz n was supported.

The OS has been updated OTA again since then, and today of course there's CM9 and there are even JB ROMs available.

However, I've never seen 5GHz 802.11n supported since the launch OS.

What gives? Clearly the hardware supports the capability. Why have none of the custom ROMs re-enabled that support? Is that something that the community is reliant on HTC to deliver GB, ICS, or JB drivers for, and if HTC never does, then we'll never have that capability back?

Just curious....
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
I wasn't aware the phone ever supported 5ghz WIFI-N. You are right that the Dinc launched with 2.1 (Eclair) and had an OTA to 2.2 (Froyo) later that year. We didn't get GB until November 2011.

Looked up bcm4329 (our wifi chipset) and it supports 5ghz n. Have you tried my latest gingertiny kernel on sense to see if it will connect at 5ghz to a n router?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
I have tried it and it does not even see the network. It will only connect to a 2.5 N network at a max 72mbps. I have even tried to manually connect to it, but it just tries to connect over and over again with no success. It would be totally awesome if it would work though.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysticCobra:
Thanks for clarifying the history--I couldn't remember exactly.

And I may be mis-remembering the exact sequence of events. Doing some Google searches, it sounds like N support wasn't present in 2.1...that was touted as a new feature in 2.2, from what I read.

I did not have an N router when I first got my phone, but when I did get my N router, I would swear that I remember being able to see both the 2.4 and 5GHz SSIDs on my phone. I remember setting up my wifi so that I had my clients "compartmentalized", with the router set to support N-only devices on 5GHz (my phone and laptop), and the 2.4GHz net was set to support legacy G devices as well as N.

At some point, I'd swear an OTA update broke my 5GHz support on the phone. I distinctly remember lamenting about the loss to a friend at work!

I'd swear that I'm not dreaming this, but now that I'm looking I can't find anything in Google referring to the DInc ever having 5GHz support.....am I going insane? I wish someone else would jump in and say, "No, I used to have 5GHz support on my phone, too!" :)

You should post your request in low legacy devices or android hacking. You should also know exactly which components are in your device to know if you can build or port a rom for it. It would be interesting also if you could find the drivers (code) for your phone. Anyway if this phone is not to famous I don't think you can find any custom roms, just build them by yourself.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeyBert:
I'm using the camera and I'm noticing one thing. On any other device I've used, you can touch on a dark or light area of the screen and the camera will focus accordingly. Either brightening or darkening. Any ideas why that doesn't work on the GS3?

It's harder to describe than I thought. Let me know if that doesn't make sense.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
It works on CM10, I thought it was the same on TW too... been a while since I've been on TW.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
I've never seen that on either our Incredible, Incredible 2 or Galaxy S III phones - touching on the active camera screen sets focus to where you pointed.

- ooofest
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
he's talking about tap to focus and exposure.. and yes that was indeed a feature on the Incredible camera. say that you are taking a photo of a cloudy sky.. tap on the darker area and the camera would adjust the exposure on that spot to lighten it up a bit

i thought it did work on the S3 camera.. but now you mention it...

i'll try to take some photos at the Yankees/Red Sox game tomorrow night.. should be a cloudy day and a good time to test.

EDIT: i've turned on 'Auto contrast' under setting, and it did a similar effect.. now when you pan your camera to a darker area.. it should adjust itself (no need to tap!) :highfive:. you'll also notice that your 'Exposure value' setting has been greyed out, since it's adjusting it for you automatically now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
I've never heard of this, admittedly - even the manual only states that tapping the camera display will focus on that spot. Holding it down takes a picture with that spot as the point to concentrate focus, exposure, etc.

Took out my Incredible and tried different metering modes, but tapping only changed focus. Are you talking about holding a finger down to take the picture, as I described above? This might be semantics, then.

- ooofest
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeyBert:
radiohead's got it right. ooofest, I can take a video of my Incredible doing it if you like. I tried the Auto Contrast feature but it's not having the same effect. Thanks for all the responses.

EDIT: here's a quick, shoddy video demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9f09wOV7WXQ&feature=channel&list=UL
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
hmm.. i did have default settings before turning "Auto contrast" on. maybe there's something you had changed that's preventing it? i know how when you turn on "Anti-shake", it prevents being able to take a photo while in video mode.. maybe something like that is happening.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeyBert:
I've tried it with anti-shake on and off, I tried it while adjusting the exposure, tried with auto-contrast on, I tried it with all different kind of scene selections. It does work well just by tilting the camera towards the darker or lighter area but then it's cutting some of what I wanted to take a picture of. I did try my friends original Galaxy from 2 years ago and it works like a charm. Not sure what's wrong. I'm making a bigger deal of it than I should but when it's a feature I've used so regularly for so long, it's hard to let go. I appreciate your responses.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
Oh, this was my poor perception in this conversation, then.

To me, that Incredible's tap response was part of the refocusing feature when tapping our camera display: it setup to take a new picture at that spot, with all that entailed, though I admittedly cared most about it weighting focus . . . and then all aspects of the picture to that area of concentration (especially if I had metering mode set to Spot), regardless of whether I held my finger down on that spot to take the picture or tapped and then clicked the optical button. In either case, the Incredible adjusts the picture and not just the focus, yes.

The Galaxy S III TouchWiz camera is often more quick to take a picture, so I've tried different contrast and other modes to hope it will expose the shot well enough. Usually that's the case, but sometimes I need to readjust between Auto-focus mode, White Balance, Metering mode, etc. - I don't touch the display to take the picture these days, because it's usually close enough for my needs. But, I can see what you are missing.

Thanks,

I just noticed i am unable to turn on bluetooth after the JB update, when pressing the bluetooth symbol it just says turning on and it doesnt.

Same thing from Settings, it says turning on and nothing happends, i tried to turn off wifi from settings and then turning on bluetooth but same problem, then wifi would not turn on either.. tried a reboot but i could still not turn on either wifi or bt.. after a reset (turn off and then volume down + power) wifi was enabled again but still no bt..

Anyone else got this problem and/or a solution?

Weird, i had superuser and installed SuperSu from market, then i tried to remove superuser but it failed (one guide said delete the superuser.apk and install superuser from market and remove) I ended up disabling the superuser application within androids apps.. after the update i did not get root back from the OTA rootkeeper within SuperSu's built in function and was freaking out badly...

Then i disabled root in SuperSu and enabled then suddenly i had root back :)

Any suggestion on what to do now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bevardimus:
All right, I've googled the crap out of this topic and have found many threads on many sites where people think they are STUCK at this screen, and have to pull the battery. For some people that may be the case, but in my case, it is a delay of about 5 minutes. And it is driving me crazy that nobody finds this as troublesome as I do.

I have the Verizon GNex, and I just recently unrooted and got back to stock in order to get the official Jelly Bean OTA update from Verizon. Once I got it, I rooted using CWM and SuperUser. Everything's great except that almost every time I boot my phone it gets stuck on the Google Logo for about 5 minutes before resuming boot. I've used CWM to clear cache, clear dalvik cache, fix permissions, etc. Not fixed, still does it (not EVERY time, but more often than not).

For the love of Homer Simpson, WHAT IS THE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM?!? It is clearly a Jelly Bean issue, as every JB Rom I've tried has the issue, where ICS never did. I turn my phone off at night, and can't deal with this almost every morning. Can anybody else with Verizon's stock JB just comment and let me know if you also have this problem, and if you know how to make it stop PLEASE SHARE! Thank you in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xfanatic:
I would say try flashing the new bootloader but since you took the OTA I would think it came with it. It might be worth a shot anyway.

It is a common problem with JB. Mine takes a minute or two even with the new bootloader.

I have two T-Mobile smart phone SIMs in two android devices. The second phone is rarely used as a phone and I don't have a tablet yet. I would really like to find a good 7" tablet that can also make cellular calls exactly like a phone. That means not using any voip option. I realize I could use my backup phone as a hot spot and use a WiFi tablet but I want to merge the functionality. I also expect this may require a custom ROM which is no problem. I looked into the LG G-Slate but it looks like the phone functionality is at best buggy. Is there a better solution?
