[Windows 8 General] xuninc:
He's not asking how to activate the software, he's not asking how to trick it into thinking it's activated, he's asking how to enable a feature so that he can customize his background because he hasn't purchased a key yet... Maybe he wants to explore all of the features of the OS before purchasing it... Whatever his reason is, there's nothing illegal about enabling desktop personalization on a non-activated copy of Windows 8. Just like there's nothing illegal about enabling the Aero Lite theme on an activated copy of Windows 8. Or any other tweak or hack that we come up with to do something that we're not supposed be able to do.

Anyways, I think the guy who made the stealing software comment was speaking to the person who suggested activation over KMS server, not the guy who posed the question... So, we can stop now. :)
[Windows 8 General] TheAtheistOtaku:
i would understand if the wallpaper feature was a major feature, but it isnt. Pretty much everyother feature is ready and working in the trial, and chances are if you dont like windows 8 without the wallpaper, your opinion wouldn't change if your able to change it. So if you like windows 8, just buy a key, most people qualify for the cheaper upgrade price anyway, so its not really that expensive. Plus if you actually buy it you dont ever have to worry about your copy becoming non genuine and shutting down, or getting an update that shuts you dont, like the antipiracy update in windows 7
[Windows 8 General] prjkthack:
Except that this particular part of this "personalization" feature is completely dependent on the successful purchase and/or activation of Windows 8. Therefore, in order to personalize the background, you do have to trick Windows into thinking that it has been legally purchased and activated.

This is not a uxtheme patch or something, this is a benefit that you get once you activate Windows 8. Any circumvention of that functionality is clearly not an intended function of a non-activated copy of Windows, and therefore anything you do to get around this is probably just as illegal as stealing Windows itself.

Now we can stop. ;)

Hmmmmmm

Just been on the gadget shows website and come across this:

Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini runs Android 4.1 “Jelly Bean” out of the box, which packs in a whole host of speed improvements. Around the back, there’s a five megapixel camera instead of the original’s super 8MP sensor, one of the more unfortunate cost cutting procedures Samsung’s had to make.

So come on where is are JB Samsung?

I have been using custom rom for while now.

It's been around 3 month I am using this rom. Nothin wrong except for the camera issue. Whenever I want to take a picture with flash, my phone keeps turning off. Without flash it works great.

Really annoying me.

Is there any way to fix this problem

I am using:

Android Version: 4.0.3

HTC sense Version : 3.6

I've been working on an icon pack that I have dubbed Chameleon.

They are highly transparent, but still very visible on any wallpaper. Currently there are about 45 icons in the pack and it is confirmed working with ADW, NOVA, and Apex pro.

I've tried very hard to keep them as close to stock design as possible yet make them work with just about any wallpaper or theme you have.

It is on the market, but I'm putting it here for free. Hope you like it, and any feedback is appreciated.

Future additions include more icons and possibly higher transparency.

[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fraunos:
Hello there,

I was tired of my phone (Samsung Galaxy 3 GT-I5800) and wanted to do something with it. I found out its possible to install different systems on it, so i did. I tested CM10 with succes, but i wanted something different, i downloaded AOKP (in the meantime i flashed I5800XWJPD and I5801DXJPC ## from samfirmware, which were ****). So now i have couple bugs i can't solve:

When i boot my phone it says "GT - I5801" not "GT - I5800" as it should, i have no idea why.

AOKP bootloops (intro animation starts - ding white screen for 5 seconds or so, and loop), but eventually boots

Home button doesnt works in AOKP

AOKP doesnt reads SIM card (probably because of bootloop)

I used Odin Multi Downloader v4.252, apollo_0531.ops file, and said ROMs. Oh and i rooted it, or at least i think i did :D

[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austin266:
try froyo roms m12., kisad's, purumod., or stock roms.. everything works in good shape
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h4r5h:
^

You are getting GT - i5801 instead of GT- i5800 because you flashed a .TAR file that had a bootloader. Never ever flash a rom that contains bootloader in it! Most of the stock rom's in samfirmware contains bootloader in them, so I highly recommend you not to flash such roms!

What you're getting is not a bootloop, but just a minor bug. You can fix that by simply downloading any custom bootanimation and then pushing it to /system/media. You can find tons of them in the "Themes and Apps" sub-forum.

No clue, maybe reflashing should solve the problem.

You probably have Pin Lock in place. Simply disable it and your SIM should be working fine after that.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fraunos:
I'll try different ROMs, cause i tried reflashing AOKP and it always has that white screen bug. Thanks for answers, i'll try different things, hope it'll work.

Edit: Ok i disabled boot animation in options and it works now, but still home button doesnt work and i found out that usb connection doesnt work too, i searched the forums for the solution, but i cant find that MTF option or how it was called..

EDIT2: Okay, everything's fine by now :) what i've done is i downloaded rom from samfirmware, double checking it has bootloader for 5800, installed it, and then did the same with M12. Thanks for help!

Hey all,

I recently bought an Xperia Go and updated it to the latest FW

and now a couple of bugs present themselves.

the goal of this thread is to list them and/or list solutions

* laggy launcher

* a lot of widgets aren't supported or simply don't work

* no notification bar settings at all

* Wifi issue's ( more Xperia phones have this, reported to have something to do with the Wpa_supplicant )

(all my keyboard issues where solved by installing JB keyboard)

For the people who still have problems with the laggyness of the phone:

try Munjeni's Kernel and Pimp My Rom (use the different android_upgrade package and only the volume buttons NOT the screen! )

An update from sony has been reported

Proof

hopefully this wil resolve some issues

Try different settings on your router, i found out that ICS and WPA2 don't work very well together...

That's not acceptable, seeing that WPA2 is a widely-used standard in academic and commercial environments for WiFi encryption.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CiscoX:
Hi.

I have tried ICS official stock from Sony Update Service, yesterday.

1. Laggy

2. Drain my battery, 20 - 40% faster that it did in GB

3. Bad performance, laggy and more laggy.

4. My Xperia Active with ICS are much more faster and smoother.

Back to GB, everything run perfectly :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Limitless83:
Well tell that to developpers of the routers firmware, it depends on the router mostly and not the phones
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CiscoX:
Hi.

Try to reinstall ICS ROM again via Sony Update Service.

Since you had GB before and didn't had any problems with your WiFi at home, and now you have problem with ICS, i believe this is a ICS problem.

If this was a router problem, you should experience the same with your GB ROM.

I did try ICS for couple of days ago, and i didn't had any problem with the WiFi here at home, but ICS was so laggy and had bad performance. I went back to my stock GB again.

I don't understand why some people have laggy device and other not. I thought it was the same phone (Xperia GO).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Limitless83:
Well you have to try ICS a couple of days ( the first days the phone is 'learning' your behavior)

and after a while it gets less lags

and for the WiFi problems, i can connect to some routers but not to others,

so i think it's a router issue more then an ICS issue although i can't remember if i had it with GB...

Btw is someone else experiencing problems with low battery:

when my battery gets less than 15% my phone gets very slow (opening apps/switching to launcher)

even rebooting is almost impossible ( at( one time i had to wait until my phone turned off by itself)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CiscoX:
Hi.

Well, maybe i should try ICS again and just let it be laggy for couple of days and see if that help, but i also notice that the ICS drain my battery like he....l . Something i don't like at all.

I have been reading at Sony forum, and there is lot of people have problems with ICS.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] helkaluin:
That doesn't make sense. Loads of wireless devices connect to WPA2 successfully. It's only that this phone, when upgraded to stock ICS, fails to stay connected, and has the wpa_supplicant process hang with 100% cpu usage when such happens. It's definitely a software issue on Sony's end.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Limitless83:
That i didn't know, i only experienced that in my bar most phones with ICS or IOS had trouble with WPA2 on my router and when i switched to WPA it seemed that the problems where gone,

but after a few days i couldn't connect for a while and suddenly it did...

Does anyone know a way to "fix" the wpa_supplicant problem?

Easy on the capitals there cowboy:cowboy:... :laugh:

There's indeed a probleem with ICS and the Wifi, if you search the Xperia forums you'll see a lot of complaints about it.

there's no solution at the moment, but there's an official update comming Proof

So you'll have to wait for either

- a solution made/found here on XDA

- an official update (wich hopefully resolves this

- a custom rom ( several can be found, but they're still in development)

- go back to GB

The xperia Go is a very good phone, it just needs some love and attention, some tweaks and customs... ;)

CyanogenMod have said: either a new developer starts doing it, or Samsung comes to their senses and opens up to the community.

They hate working with Exynos. And I can imagine, with no documentation.

I really like the S-Pen on my note, and the big screen size.

But Samsung is being very closed source lately and that is a major problem for me.

You can always unzip a stock ROM and take the .apk you want out of it. Put in on the root of your sdcard and move it to system/app using some sort of file explorer then change permissions before rebooting. Not sure it would play well with JB tho.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Every time you flash something that is not a Samsung stock software from your PC with Odin the binary count is raised. Ir reflects the number of non-stock flashed items, but the count can be reset to 0 with Triangle Away by Chainfire. Check his thread to download it or buy it in Play Store.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajsk:
So as answered on top by gee2012, binary counter counts how many time you flashed your device with not official firmware. There are other ways to drop the counter to 0, but everything downloaded and installed from net is risky! and first of all ask yourself a question, do you need root? sure? why? Because Android is open enough, it’s not IOS which you can’t do nothing on unless you Jailbreake and even then it’s less useful than Android!

Sorry had to correct my post due to old info.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FloatingFatMan:
Incorrect. Probably a good idea to check your "facts" before repeating them to others.

TriangleAway works just fine on JB. Chainfire updated it a while ago.
