[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arbaaz Pathan:
Dear all,

I am using samsung galaxy s3 , recently i observed that my wifi is not been able to operate and shows dim wifi logo ( not as bright as other GPS SOUND or SCREEN ROTATION ) and does not get activate or ON on my phone. It just shows turning ON and just remains as it is ????????

Please some one help me to find the solution for the same ..

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kokichi3000:
What ROM are you using.

If you are using Jelly Bean, try an alternative kernel. Siyah kernel latest version has the updated WiFi driver which solved all Wifi problems for me.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedyjay:
If all else fails, flash back to stock ICS (LG8)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sarfaraz1989:
i bought a charger online it looks very much like the original bundled one. However i have a couple of questions

1. is there a way i can check the output quality using the phone itself and not a multimeter . Like variation in voltage/current?

2. using a multimeter do i have to tear apart the charger to check the output quality.

any inputs are welcome
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
Depends on what you mean by 'output quality'. If you mean the ripple (noise), especially in response to load changes, then no, you can't without oscilloscope and dummy load.

If you do not have this measuring equipment, then I would use these two simple tests:

does the empty phone fully charge within 2 - 3 hours ?

does the touchscreen stay responsive while charging ?

If you can answer both of these questions with yes then one could assume the charger is of good quality.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sarfaraz1989:
thanx for an informative reply man. the thing is i use usb charger usually battery is 8 months old . i dont know how long it will charger to recharge. giving these conditions u still think it will take 2-3 hours to charge ? yes the touchscreen stays remains but i think there is the usual "noise " that makes minor error in touchscreen smoothness. do u understand wat i am trying to tell u.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
the minor 'touch screen smoothness' issue will be there while charging thro wall charger for sure and also the charging time do wary depending on how old the battery is:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
If the battery is fine (and it should still be after 8 months) charging of an empty battery should happen within 2 - 3 hours.

If you are able to normally operate your phone while charging, then this is ok.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sarfaraz1989:
ok. i will do that and get back to u guys. just one thing. wat info can i get from phone regarding charging current /voltage ? also the original capacity was 1650 mAh . can i recalibrate and get the "new" mAh is there anything like this ? i calibrate my laptop' battery every two months and get its capacity in terms of mW. anything similar to phones ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
Search the play store for Battery Monitor Widget. It can give you some more information about your battery, charging, discharging etc.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nathanmnm:
Currently running cm7. Did some searches, so my NT has WiFi but no Bluetooth, no power to USB so no micro USB dongle.

Stereo bluetooth dongle possible but bulky and requires separate charging.

WiFi speakers possible but can't find any.

Use app to controll another android using WiFi but requires second device.

I would love to be able to use the nt as wireless audio player.

Any ideas anyone?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PJLLB:
You might check out the MediaHouse UPnP/DLNA app in the Play Store. Is this the capability you're looking for?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nathanmnm:
interesting but not exactly

My plan was to use the NT as a remote control for the livivg room audio. Where the audio is stored is not a problem (SD card or network is fine). The simple solution would be some Bluetooth speakers and play using the NT doing most of the work however no Bluetooth on NT makes this hard. I have cats who like chewing cables so stereo HiFi inst great, a rechargeable WiFi speaker would be awesome but all wireless speakers seem to be Bluetooth :(

I might look into the dongle idea, not USB but 3.5mm audio to Bluetooth dongle, its bulky but probably simplest.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PJLLB:
Did you look at app I sugested? There are DLNA WiFi speakers -- do an Internet search for " dlna speakers wireless" to see many options.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
Hi,

I currently own a Sony Xperia U flashed with 4.0 ICS and I was wondering whether it woud be possible for me to develop a custom ROM with android 4.1 Jellybean on it.

Would I first need to Develop a custom Kernel?, And if so, How?

I have the SDK with the 4.1 libraries already.

Also if anybody else has an Xperia U, perhaps we could get a little team together.

Thanks

Great, we can learn as we go along, it'll be fun :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wildfire-s:
I am willing to help with this but i think we should wait for cm9 to be released by FXP or someone because that will make it easier for us and i dont think we will get cm9 for a while they said that they are not releasing anything untill audio if fixed so yeaa.....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] F4uzan:
i like to. I wan't Xperia U became a Super-Class device, and beat my Galaxy Mini of course :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
Isn't CM9 ICS, I thought CM10 was Jellybean,

And would we need to build a Kernel for this Project?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] F4uzan:
OK, i created a list of requirements / blue-print for creating JB for our phone.

LIST :

1. Kernel

Support Overclock up-to 1.2 Ghz

Support init.d

Support KSM

Support latest ClockWorldMod Recovery (v5.0.0.2.8 or 6.0.1.3 )

2. ROM

CM10 = Hell good for modificiation

AOKP = Smooth like a butter

Paranoid = Tablet, Phable / Nexus 7, Phone UI ? All in One

PAC = Have all three ROM i listed, heavy but full of features

3. UI

Xperia = Stock, i think little boring

Holo = Stock Android 4.1 UI, black-blue-white.

TouchWiz = Stock Samsung look, boring.. except you offer TouchWiz 5 which top notch Samsung UI.

I can resize UI and porting ROM. But cannot build kernel.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wildfire-s:
cm10 is jellybean but it will be easier to build if we have access to cm9 sources that are for this phone
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
Great, ul be a great Asset to the Team
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] F4uzan:
Also, many JB 4.1.1 (not 4.1.2) sources are tied into ICS, so getting ICS first will be easier to get JB.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AlenKing:
hit that thanks button hehehe it is beter for me ;) and in future chose right section cause we need this dev section clean and now am looking with some devs and asking them for help with kernel OC so i hope wee will have OC for ICS hehehehe :D xperia U and about AOSP 4.1 dont bother guys it is not worth i tried fxp JB on xperia neo (my phone before 2 days hahah and not god) actually lets focus on ICS right now cause i can se NOTHING good in dev section exeptc ROOT by BIN4RY AND some X Y OMEGA roms, try asking some friends who know how to make OC kern with CWM etc for help and any rom which isnt complete working isnt ROM for me ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
Will this help us port. Jellybean?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] F4uzan:
Also, we need OC + CWM + init.d support + UnderVolt Kernel, cause JB will need OC because JB needs powerfull clock-speed. UnderVolt needed to save battery, CWM for installing custom-roms and flashing zips file, init.d needed for scripts supports.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
Do you know anybody who can do all that?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] F4uzan:
I can, but i'm on vacation now (going to my friend's home)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
Ok, when you get back, lemme know
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] F4uzan:
I'm... Back !

I'm created CWM Kernel + Undervolt, but does not support Overclock (wow.. sorry but i can't do it :( ) It's based on ICS Kernel from stock .10 Firmware.

I also building CM10 from sources with modification, currently it's not booting.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
Great to hear! progress, is looking good from here,

But why isnt overclock possible??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lemon90:
4.1 Jelly bean with sola . Never
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Die_Panzerfaust:
By the way guys,

I just flashed Jellybean to my Friend's Samsung Galaxy Y and it runs smoother than butter!!

If JB can run on such a weak Device, then our Xperia 2012 should run Perfectly!!

And perhaps we can ask the guy who Created the "SSpeed Kernel" about Overclock Support! :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] taoofmac:
I'd like to help out

I've been doing Android builds for a few devices for a while (although this is the first day I've actually been posting to XDA). I got a cheap Xperia U and like the hardware and form factor, so I'd like to keep track of any efforts to get, say, CM10 running on it and help out once there is a source tree available.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] imanesaurus:

Hi,

it's possibile to install Windows 8, with vmware or something like this, on note 2? or we can only use the infrastrutture client server, of vwmare client for android? Because i need to intall it, in local, for work...

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Yrcimim:
That's an ambitious wish, but the Note 2 has no x68 architecture, so no...

Windows 8 on Arm won't help either, without some serious porting efforts an besides that: you' d need the specific Arm arcitecture Vmware client too...

You can however use web-based clients to control hypervisors. There are many, not only Vmware...
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] FloatingFatMan:
No. Not possible. Windows 8 is x86 architecture. You will never be able to run it on ARM.

WinRT or WP8 may be possible, but extremely unlikely.

All you'll really be able to do is use an RDP client to connect to a real Windows 8 machine.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Yrcimim:
I second the RDP method: I use it myself (Remote Desktop Client, Xtralogic) and on the Note 2 with all that screen real estate, it's a breeze...

Combine it with a VPN (either builtin or download OpenVPN) and you are ready to go anywhere with it. :D

A few days ago i noticed strange issue on my SXS.It was tipical day for me,after schoole lay down in bed put headphones,and enjoy.And it was ok,until i moved my phone.Music suddenly stoped.So i yought i accidentally somehow pressed stop.But after I moved my phone again,same problem.Than I wondered wtf i haven't touched any of the phones buttons and it stopped...So searching for the factor that causes this problem,i found it.Every time i move my headset jack a little bit,the music stops,like i plugged my headphones off and i didn't.So anyone has thos problem?I don't get it,is it up to the headphones or jack?It's frustrating,i must be like a statue so i can listen the music!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lord Takyon:
It's just the connection. The lead I use to connect to my stereo is the same, but my earphones are just fine.

I don't believe it's a problem with the phone hardware.

Just out of interest do you use a case? I only ask because my connection is more sensitive if I have the case on. I looked and the case actually slightly gets in the way and the jack is not quite so deep, but earphones are still fine.

[Asus Transformer TF700] n-j-f:
I hope this is appropriate for the Development forum as it relates to the two recoveries here - CWM 6.0.1.4 and TWRP 2.3.0.0. I have previously posted in both those threads. I have not seen any comments about problems so it would be good to know if I am not alone.

I have the 64Gb version of the TF700T with JB (unfortunately, no NVflash).

I have been using the Sandisk 64Gb UHS1 card. It came formatted with exFAT and was one of the few that worked OK under the original firmware. I could not get either CWM or TWRP to see the card at all in recovery mode.

I found a spare 16Gb card that was formatted in Fat32. That worked fine and mounted without a problem under both CWM and TWRP.

I then did a full format of the 16Gb card under Windows 7 to exFAT and it would not work. With CWM I tried a simple backup and got 'Can't mount backup path'. Then tried to Mount /sdcard and got 'Error mounting /sdcard'. In TWRP I could not select or mount the card.

Next I did a full format to NTFS. With CWM I still have the same problem. With TWRP it allows me to select the card and it can be browsed in TWRP's File Manager. However, when I try to create a backup I get an error creating backup path.

Is it just me or can no one properly mount and backup direct to the external card with CWM or TWRP when the card is formatted in exFAT or NTFS?

As the 64Gb card cannot be formatted with Fat32 then does that mean I will not be able to use my 64Gb card and backup direct to the card?

TIA

norm

EDIT: The precise error I am getting from TWRP is 'E:Unable to create folder: /external_sdcard/TWRP (errno=30)'.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cmdrdredd:
It has to be FAT32 for some reason. I had the same issue so I bought a cheap card just to have an SD Card with my nandroid backups on it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Dees_Troy:
NTFS mounts as read only in TWRP which isn't all that useful but that's due to the kernel. exFAT has a much stricter license than regular FAT so I doubt that you will ever see exFAT support in a Linux kernel.

Maybe I will dabble with the kernel config & try to get NTFS to mount writable.
[Asus Transformer TF700] B3L13V3:
What about ext4, is it possible to format in ext4 and have android recognize it and the recovery... just a thought since Linux does support it and IMO ext4 is superior to fat32 and ntfs.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galeanatur:
So here is my story i hope you can help me avoid the samsung service... :(

USB port had stop working about 3 motnhs ago,it was only used to charge the battery,i couldnt use it for usb mass storage mode,that was ok by me cause i didn't have problem using BT to transfer my files,so i didn't really search what's the problem..

Until yesterday that suddenly i decided to change my kernel...new kernel(matrix 23.5 cfs) didn't work and now i am stuck in the google logo because i can't transfer files through usb to transfer new kernel/rom to flash it and fix it...

my bad i didn't put the old kernel and the rom zip in the sd before flashing the new kernel but i didn't imagine that it won't work :(

So,is there any solution for this?? the only thing i could thought is to export the sd card and put it in card reader(i can take the risk to open the phone parts) or to just change the usb..

ps.i can access recovery/bootloader

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenzibit:
This is something that just occured to me. Microsoft always comes out with dates for big events and after a few days you also hear Google planning an event on that same day; time and location may vary though. For example; Google released the soo called Motorola Droids the same day Microsoft talked about Windows Phone 8...I think a couple of months ago. Now Microsoft has planned Windows Phone 8 launch on October 29th and as you all know from last week, Google has also planned to release the next Nexus on that same day....Now is this a coincidence or Foul play??

Foul play in a sense to divide the number of techies who will attend these events....as you know these two giant companies don't go along very well (Google being too stingy with Microsoft and even refusing to release offical apps for Windows Phone.....and what pains me a lot is Microsoft always taking care of them by releasing beautiful apps and better servicies to Android)....but this is a different discussion alltogether.

What do you think??
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcosmin222:
Google hates everything there is to be about ms, cause ms is their prime competitor:

1) Bing -> this search engine is pretty powerful and offers results as good as Google's. A shame it doesn't come in all languages. Google tried several time to discredit bing,

2)Chroome OS-> this is Google's attempt at removing windows from its monopole position over OS. Of course, it failed dramatically.

3) Windows Phone -> Of course Google finds it a threat, a pretty big one. After Samsung lost the battle with apple, Google is kinda scared that their biggest client, Samsung, might go around and make more WP instead. There is also the nostalgic popularity of Nokia, which did come back in play with the Lumia line.

So google does try to minimize the impact of Microsoft over its domains as much as possible. However, from a consumer's point of view, having at least two players that are actually in conflict (Apple vs google does not count, apple does not care about google),is a good thing, so I hope MS will succeed.

These were exactly my thoughts and I think it's clear enough to be known by everyone in the tech industry.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taurenking:
Actually I don't think google finds WP as a threat... Android has a bigger share of the mobile market whereas iOS is slowly losing the pace...all in all while WP is eating on BlackBerry and symbian...
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenzibit:
....yeah and maybe when WP eats BB and Symbian, they'll grow and attack them. I don;t think Google is looking at the race now but in five years time....where most giants are going to fall since they'll have nothing more to offer. Lets just hope all goes well.
