[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phederico:
Alright my friends, haven't been on in a while but this one has me stumped. I'll try to keep it clear and concise. I'm using an older Fresh Rom and have not had this problem untill recently.

I use an application called PDA Net to field all my text messages to my computer while it's plugged in and charging. This app allows me to field the sms messages that come through my phone on to my computer so I don't have to pick up my phone to respond. I can just handle it using the online screens much like you would with Live Messenger and apps of that accord.

Recently after reset of all my phone and reflash of the Fresh ROM, and the partition of my SD card, I've discovered that the PDA Net application, although it works fine, it does NOT see my address book anymore. It's very odd, because if I DON'T partition my card, this functionality is fine. It was fine before too.

So I'm really wondering how this A2SD script really works. Does it matter if the app is installed on the phone PRIOR to partioning your SD card. Should I install the app and THEN partition to avoid this issue? Could it really be that installing the app after the partition could be the culprit.

Questions:

1) If I install an app and THEN choose to partition my sd card, will it have this type or any other adverse affects?

2) Should I partition the card first, THEN flash an A2SD rom, or vice versa?

3) Is there a way to pull application from the sdext partition manually or ensure it does NOT get moved?

What do you guys recommend?

thanks people!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious544d:
Although the Note 2 has the ability to splitscreen with Samsung and Google apps, I was wondering whether it will be possible for developers to edit 3rd party apps and make it compatible with it. As Google apps work with splitscreen, maybe we can compare the one that comes with the Note 2 with the equivalent version number from the original.

I'm sure that this is possible and that it probably isn't too hard to do. However, it will be very hard to dig in and find where the extra code is hidden.

Although I do not own a Note 2, just this splitscreen feature itself makes me very tempted.

So, can we make it a reality? :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Its nothing to do with the apps themselves, its a Samsung service that allows two apps to be displayed, theoretically any two apps could be made to work. In the code Samsung basically lists specific apps to allow, this can most likely be edited to allow more.

it is something that is being worked on by various people here on XDA.

There is a Split-screen thread above (a pinned topic) which discusses this.

Note that some apps just don't work in multi windowed mode, even though you enable them.

Fullscreen games, for example, will still run full screen - and you can only see the part of the portion that is visible in window #1.

Hello!

So the problem started today, when my phone got shutted down ( because battery was 4%.. ) and when i was able to charge it, this sh#t started.

So, some things first:

- I'm not able to get to the place ( phone off -> volume down and turn phone on ) where i could flash wp6.5 or do task29

- I couldn't enter into rom because it froze to the part where HTC is green with black background

- Rom worked with safe mode

- USB flasher doesn't work in malgdr

- Buttons are messy ( but i have now figured how they work )

- I*M NOT ABLE TO HARD RESET, when it says " press volume up to reset ", it does nothing. I have to take off the battery to get off there.

+ I'm able to go to AD recovery, and do anything there

+ I'm able to use USB MassStg

So what can I do? Or what should i do? This is really sad to me. I've flashed roms since March with great succes, but now I face a problem like this in normal use. So i'm pretty confused.

I'm able to take some video if you need it.

Not sure did i make it to the right section, but i hope i made.

[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
I am going to try to explain this a little and maybe it will help you out.

What you are talking about is called bootloader and this is probably caused by a faulty volume down button. Unless you check the hardware for the volume down button and fix it if it is faulty there is no other fix for this issue unless you are using Windows Mobile then you can use the enterbootloader.exe.

It froze on what is called the splash screen and this is not all in all just a major issue and can more than likely be fixed.

Safe mode on a device is the same as safe mode on a computer, it will allow you to boot the device and hopefully find the problem or fix the problem.

This is probably a driver issue and is only needed to flash a Android recovery or to flash a Windows Phone ROM.

I would like some more info on this actually as far as what buttons you are talking about. It also plays into what I said about a faulty volume down button.

This is because you have MAGLDR installed, there is no software for the device to reset.

This is good because I think recovery just may be what you need to use to fix your issue.

This is also good because you can transfer any needed files to your SD card using this.

I assume you are using a Android ROM because you said you can still use AD recovery. I suggest you read the first couple of post in the thread for the ROM you are using to find the suggested partition size you need as you may not have the right partition size if that is the case you will need to re partition your device but without being able to use USB flasher you will not be able to flash a new recovery with your new partition size. But you you should be able to edit a recovery and use it with AD sd, look in my guide linked in my sig for more infor on using recovery from SD card.

Also you can try to do a wipe of your cache and delvik cache and see if that helps. You can also try to make a backup of your ROM and re flash the Android ROM to see if that helps.

But to be honest with you your situation is odd because it did not happen right after you flashed a ROM. This sorta leads me to beleive you may have hardware issues.
[HD2 General] keetsy:
LOL, when i started the phone today, the buttons worked normally. In Malgdr & AD recovery.

Of course, i tried to go to bootloader and I did. After that I flashed WM6.5 succesfully.

I'm going to upload a video about this all today or tomorrow. Rendering the video just now.

Edit: Installed this rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1912740

Still, back and "windows" button are bugging. Sometimes when i press them, they change the volume and the real volume buttons do the same.

Edit 2: You can watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDMZQRzcZmM
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
I watched the video and I gotta say I think you have hardware issues. I would recommend you find someone to take a lookk at you volume buttons and the hardware buttons to see about fixing them. Both sets of buttons are replaceable.
[HD2 General] keetsy:
I'll try to take care of that.

Thank you really much !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilNotts:
Good evening people,

I need some help please. I thought I would flash my phone and flash a different rom on it. Obviously you have to root it first so I downloaded Odin,Samsung Quick Root, GT-I9100_XWLA4_insecure.tar & GT-I9100_XXLP6_secure kernels.

I used Odin to get the insecure kernel on so that I can then root my phone before rooting it back to a secue kernel and changing its rom.

After using odin,I routed the phone,said succesful but my phone sticks at the original load up screen. I unrooted it but its still sticks there but without the triangle.

Can someone please point me in the right direction as what to do as need to sort this soonest possible please,thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilNotts:
since my last back up I dont think I've added many new numbers so not too bothered about that. Main thing was the photos which I have which at least wont be affected.

So after downloading the original stock for ICS4.0.3 from SamMobile, do I just upload the kernal and stock to PDA in ODIN and press start and then let nature take its course? lol
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
first flash the stock rom from ODIN ma8, after that once ur phone reboots, then again enter dwnld mode and flash the kernel:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilNotts:
Right, I flashed the original stock from Odin and the phone is now working again,woohoo. I never thought I'd be so happy to see the O2 arena in London,lol.

However its still not working fully coming up with a crash warning like "Unfortunately,the process android.process.acore has stopped" and "Unfortunately, LogsProvider has stopped." and basically crashes all the time.

What I am looking to do is install this: CheckRom RevoHD 7

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312240

I have downloaded the Rom for it, Odin and as mentioned previously them two kernels. You recommend I download Siyah Kernel 4.1.5 but cant find it unless I'm being blind,and is it a kernel which you have to tamper with or can you leave it as is?

When I have everything,as far as I know the steps are:

Open Odin, Flash the New Kernel

Root the device,

Copy Rom on to sd card

Start UP VOLUME,POWER & HOME

Install Rom from SD card

Is that right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
the error is common after install of a Stock rom ma8, all u have to do is to reboot to recovery and there 'Wipe Data/Factory reset' to get rid of the same:)

any way since ur trying to install check rom revo Hd 7, no need for the same:)

first flash the .tar file of siyah kernel v4.1.5 from Odin to root ur phone, after that when on reboot u will have an 'Yellow triangle' which u can get rid of later.

after installing the siyah kernel successfully u can install the Check rom revo hd 7 by following the install instructions in its thread:)

but u have to do a 'wipe data/factory reset' in siyah kernel's recovery, before flashing the Check rom:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilNotts:
Excellent,thank you for your help.

I flashed the siyah kernel with Odin and then after installing CheckRom on to the SD card I installed the custom rom straight from there. I didnt do the wipe/data factory reset before flashing the checkrom but it seems to work just fine and the speed difference is quite a massive difference.

However,its easy enough to follow that step and wipe/data factory and then reinstall CheckRom,once again it says Confirm Wipe of ALL USER DATA?? Can I just confirm one last time that this wont get rid of all my photos and then I'll be happy to wipe/data factory reset before reinstalling the check rom.

Thank you for your help,glad to see that I didnt lose any contacts either as I had synced with google account at some point recently. just lost messages which not bothered about.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilNotts:

Is there any way to hide apps from the drawer but WITHOUT killing those apps

-Rooted

-also tried "Go Launcher" but its very easy to unhide it from menu no protection at all

-Tried "Hide it Pro" = Killing the apps

-Tried "ccswe app manager" = same killing the apps

**I need Password Protected Manager To "HIDE" the apps icons only while "Keep them Running in background"

Any Ideas, Even Paid Apps ??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eenhadji:
Why don't you try apex launcher. It can hide app without killing it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] medomoo:
is there any protection for unhiding the apps or just same like Go Launcher and Launcher Pro you can unhide the apps very easy
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] medomoo:
Helooooo !!!!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvantum:
I don't know what you mean by protection, but feel free to download Go Launcher, Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher. They all allow moving apps from the main app drawer into folders. Nova Launcher also allows creation of tabs for categories of apps.

All it takes is moving the icon from main app drawer into a folder/tab, at which point it disappears from the app drawer. Moving it back is same procedure, but in reverse. Simply unchecking the app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagdude:
Most launchers probably don't have this feature (locking the ablity to unhide) because it is rather pointless, unless you are trying to hide an inappropriate app, if you know what I mean.

May I ask why you want this?

Otherwise, on the apps you mentioned, you do have to dig through menus to unhide it, so there really shouldn't be a problem with security...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] medomoo:
What i mean is same like "HIDE IT PRO" to unhide the apps u need to use your pin or whatever lock u used ,

its exactly what i need BUT in "hide it pro" when you chose to hide certain apps those apps will be killed and as long as they kept hidden u cant run them at all

So what i need is to hide apps BUT "keep Them running on background"

[HTC One V] Lloir:
ok guys i will use CM9 as the base for this tutorial so here goes:

you will need a pc running ubuntu\debian\mint 64bit and AT LEAST a dual core and 4gb of ram and the very least a 120gb hard drive (can be done on an 80GB hard drive)

1st thing you need to do is:

sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-dev:i386 g++-multilib mingw32 openjdk-6-jdk pngcrush schedtool tofrodos python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386

this will pull in all the dependencies needed to build.

next :

Create working directories for the build environment:

mkdir -p ~/bin

mkdir -p ~/android/system/

now to get repo the program to get all the source down:

Enter the following to download make executable the repo binary:

curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

you MAY Need to reboot for repo to work.

next after you reboot

cd ~/android/system/

repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics-release

now in android/system/.repo download the file attached to this thread (local_manifest.xml.txt) remove the .txt from it and plonk it in the folder i mentioned (this it the file to grab my source files)

now do repo sync -j4

this will bring down ALL THE SOURCE, this can take anywhere from 1hr+ depending on your internet connection and so on

after all that is done run:

~/android/system/vendor/cm/get-prebuilts

this will grab the CM dependencies

nearly done all you have left do is run the following command:

. build/envsetup.sh && brunch primou

this will start your build, this can take anywhere from 8minutes to 5hrs depending on your system.

enjoy guys and make sure to ask myself if you release the rom, link back to this and say thanks to myself and Maxwen :)

happy building :D

Hi

Maybe some info about that local_manifest.xml stuff

There have been some changes made that we will most probably

never get into "upstream" CM repository.

So I forked some of the CM repos on my local github account

including those changes.

The local_manifest.xml file is taking care of that and will use

the correct repo.

You are free to fork from those to create your own local changes

You then need to edit your local_manifest.xml file to pickup your repo.

On top add a new repository location e.g. this is mine

<remote name="maxwen"
fetch="https://github.com/maxwen/"/>

To "overwrite" a single repo to use your own repo add a section

e.g. here for the Settings app

<remove-project name="CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_Settings" path="packages/apps/Settings"/>
<project path="packages/apps/Settings"
remote="maxwen"
revision="ics-release"
name="android_packages_apps_Settings" />

Use your added remote "name" for the remote tag.

This will "remove" the CM repo and instead use yours

Max

You will always find latest version of the local_manifest.xml

here in my github
