[Atrix 4G General] CSharpHeaven:
Back in March 2012 I started a thread with the following title: "Android a Fragmented, Differentiated, and Misrepresented Platform". I completed the first six parts taking me over 100 hours of work before I removed them which I have already provided the reason. I still have a copy of the original works. As you can guess by now, it would take a lot of effort just to answer your first question. I might complete the articles or use them as part of other future articles one day.

When others investing money in developing hardware for Android then Google has nothing to lose should market take a 360 degree on Android for instance.

You are assured bragging about something is not my style but I will go to the end of the world for what I believe in. Several parts of the articles actually covered the technical side of Android rather than the business model of it.

Sorry I can't make any useful comment about your fourth paragraph. I made a point and you turned into a very complicated matter in particular in the beginning of your paragraph.

I was actually being very careful to write Motorola Mobility wouldn't (most likely but not surely) make hardware such as smartphones in fives years time when it requires constant software support. The reason was Motorola Mobility develops other products such as Bluetooth headphones, TV Set Box, and etc.

It is my fault not citing from the article in the first place which was the following;

"Other impacted territories are Asia and India, with cuts in R&D spending across various locations in Chicago, Sunnyvale, and Beijing."

In my opinion the intention of Google to cut spending in R&D is far more important than what was being reported which was Google has realised even scaling down is going cost the company a fortune.

This is what wikipedia has to say about R&D

"In one model, the primary function of an R&D group is to develop new products; in the other model, the primary function of an R&D group is to discover and create new knowledge about scientific and technological topics for the purpose of uncovering and enabling development of valuable new products, processes, and services." -- Wikipedia

Even if Motorola Mobility uses both models that were described in above description one can say (as I did) Motorola Mobility or rather Google planned (might still be on) to stop or reduce developing new products or innovating new products/services/technology (second model). Obviously when R&D is scaled down then all the forces across all business processes also need to be scaled down otherwise, the business is simply will waste money.

Motorola Mobility stock share should lose values based on this report alone because clearly Motorola Mobility no longer wishes to be proactive in the very competitive market. From consumers point of view this should be a further warning that things are not promising at all.

Enjoy your long holiday and see you around on XDA soon.
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
I remember the article you wrote because I read it. Why you had to remove it I have no idea, and I am disappointed that you did.

<edit> Went back and looked through that thread. And here I thought I could be a royal arse at times! XDA can be a very rough place sometimes.

That being said, I manage R&D activities in a very large global company which is 85% focused on R&D and NPI, with very little manufacturing occurring other than with 3rd party vendors in low cost countries.

All arguments aside, I was pushing for an explanation of your comments which did not seem to relate much to the article you linked, or the thread title. Your last post explains your reasoning behind your comments much better.

Cheers!

Software development costs could be being cut as Google may be moving Motorola onto having a pure android experience. As Google has its own devs, why get moto to change anything?

I didn't used cwm, just extract the systemui.apk from the zip and using root explorer set the permission to rw-r-r and put it in system/app folder. thats it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
Maybe you have to press Power-on an Volume-up buttons for a while to reboot after copying this file, because your system hang up.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mythusme:
may be u did it wrong, using root explorer, first u must put the systemui.apk in the system folder and set the permission to rw-r-r (like in the screenshot sample) then u move the apk to the system/app folder. after that reboot ur phone
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
You're right, so far - that's the way to do this and so I made it, too.

I have two sola phones (both ICS, rooted), tried different statusbars on them and every time the system stopped after a short time, i copied the systemUI.apk file to the app folder. Think, its because of you are copying a a new file over a running (system-) file. I used once the solid explorer (still beta, but fine) and then the ES file explorer.

But after a reset all things were ok and the status bars worked ok. Thx to the developers... :cool:

No matter, I just wanted to tell, if this happens (system stop) - just make a reset and all will be fine. :good:

[Folio 100 General] tiagomag:
hello. sorry creat a new thread for this, but i'm TIRED for looking for solutions and nothing found, its a litle confusing.

first of all i think it should be here a STEP BY STEP on HOW TO UPDATE the folio, with videos, or just text.

next...in my case.

i bought my folio 3 days ago, i'm on the android 2.2., i have a SUPERUSER aplication, so i think i've manage to ROOT my tablet already right?,

after this is BLANK. i'm trying to follow the steps here - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31004271&postcount=9, have already PDANET 3.50 instaled on folio, (BUT I DONT KNOW HOW TO CONECT BY USB this because i plug the cable click on USB Tether Mode, and it says i dont have wireless connection, there for whats the propose of this program?)

on that instalation guide it says :

"3. Connect your Folio 100 to PC.

4. Turn on Folio 100 and enter fastboot (3xPower + VolUP)."

the "4." dont understand what to do, shall i turn on folio and let it start normaly or shall i press POWER +VOLUME UP to enter that kind of BIOS thing?

thats why i STUCK on the Execute commands the first one says "WAITING FOR DEVICE " and dont happen nothing.

could any soul help me on this please?

i can give my email or contact me by PM here.

i'll TRY to make a video with the TUTO so no one have this problem again.

thanks
[Folio 100 General] giuaig:
Hello, i'm not an expert so take my words carefully

you can enter in fastboot by performing a 4 keys combo, as soon as your folio starts press three times "Power" (x3) and then "VolUP" (x1)

somewhere i've read to pay attention and not to press more than 3 times power and more than 1 volup or otherwise you'll brick your tablet, i don't know if this is real but i don't want to learn it in the hard way ;)

after you sucessfully do the combo you'll see a black screen with only one line "Starting Fastboot USB download protocol, please execute 'fastboot command'" so now you can connect your usb cable and execute fastboot erase/install commands

Hope ths helps
[Folio 100 General] tiagomag:
big thnks for help.

i.ve manage to get the fastboot, everything went well till the "format /emmc", it gives an error. "Error mounting /emmc!

Skipping format..." why?

i tried go to step 9 but it dosent find the sdcard. "E:can't mount /sdcard/". do i need to format it in some special way and than put files on it so the tablet find it?
[Folio 100 General] Zoldex:
Yep! I have the very same error!

Help needed here! I'm stuck!
[Folio 100 General] yochenhsieh:
I suppose you are following the steps in this post?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31004271&postcount=9

If so, you can do step 8 by select wipe data/ factory reset and wipe cache. Then you can proceed step 9~10.
[Folio 100 General] tiagomag:
have u manage already?

i solve my issue using the formatsd app.
[Folio 100 General] Zoldex:
Yep solved but only with CW 6.1.0.5 and with "Sideload" option.

Formatsd did not solve my problem.

Thanks anyways!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AusafSal:
Just as the Subject says. Only for knowledge purposes (though my phone is bricked :/ )

I get absolutely NO ERRORS while flashing ANY firmware for that matter through Odin. Though my phone is U.K Unbranded I9300XXBLG8.

It should boot-up but doesn't :/

Can't get into Recovery either. Not even a glimpse of it.

Stuck at the i9300 logo :/

Anyone care to help me and answer the following questions?

1. When is flashing a PIT File suitable? At what error u should do it?

2. Do I have a Bootloader/Recovery Problem or something?

3. Will J-Tagging help it?

4. Can someone tell me what is causing this problem? I haven't seen anyone with this problem yet. The firmware as well as CF Root flashes successfully (in Odin)... though the phone shows no positive results.

5. Should I go for PIT or J-Tagging or something else? I don't wanna risk it. All I know is that u should only flash a PIT file when u get the "Get PIT for Mapping" error. And J-Tagging is when the phone doesn't boots up. (I may be wrong)

Anyone with some suitable knowledge please drop by and help me. :(

Or someone who had this problem before.

My phone is a GT-i9300

CSC Version: I9300OXABLG8

Last Firmware was XXBLG8.

Pebble Blue non-branded and 16gb version.

THANK U :) :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
don't panic!

You should be able to fix it by just flashing a stock firmware with Odin

you could also try removing the battery for a few minutes and then reinsert and try voting recovery again
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beatsleigher:
Only go for a pit file, if you're planning to flash-lock the device, or repartition it, for that matter.

Don't panic, if your device is bricked, it's not, actually :p

You f***ed up your boot partition..

Goto sammobile.com/firmware, register, download latest U.K. firmware and then you should be good to go. Then you can root it and everything. DW about your SD, it'll stay as it is..

Hope I could help!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Flashing a pit is risky, and interruption could lead to hard brick, however if you do it right then all will be good, I used to flash with pit on the s1 regularly as it was a necessity coming from cm to gb, or something along those lines.

Just make sure you know what you are doing
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AusafSal:

OK i think my phone is alive. I managed to get it into the CWM Recovery. But there seems to be one little problem. That I can't mount my SDCard. Even tried mounting in the "Mounts and Storage" Option. Im kinda hopeful but I don't know what to do now

Tried Factory/Data Resetting but that didn't do any good. Have i Effed my SDCard or something??? :/ :/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuflo:
any specific error messages about that in cwm?

Personally i used .pit with no issues. My story was that i changed the original partition layout and flashed stock .tar after that. CWM was functional but couldn't mount anything. So i just grabbed a .pit and flashed stock together with .pit - all fine.

And regarding the "interruptions" during .pit flashing - it was the same speed as flashing without .pit, at least for me.

If in your case it's simple filesystem corruption, connecting over adb and launching fsck on the messed up partitions should provide some results.

NOTE please press the thanks button if you use this source as it is only fair to thank the people who put the effort into helping you. This is a new tablet and it took days not hours to collect and test this. Please press Thanks!

Hi I have had a Duke in Asia for about 6 months fully rooted running 3.2, so it is possible. I have attached all files and instructions in a word document to allow this to happen, but it is as always at your own risk.

Thanks to Krtonsrx8 who supplied the boot image from "Tablet PC Duke" from Europe I have updated the install files to make the installation simpler for the Europeans. I have also modded the boot file from Europe so now there are separate processes for the Asian "Prolink TA8 Tablet" (mine) and the Europe tablet mentioned in this discussion.
