@KrisPerry - Brilliant, this is exactly what I have been looking for. Do you already have this working? Just to confirm, is the deviceID pin you reference pin 13 (ACCESSORY_ID)?

I'd love to learn more about your setup if you have it documented somewhere (I didn't find anything on XDA).

Cheers!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisPerry:
Correct, between pin 13 and ground. I have it working on the bench. Next step is to test in the car before installation. I'll maybe document the whole process once completed
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisPerry:
Update so far.

Hey everyone -

Got my S3 on the way which should be delivered monday. I'm pretty much planning to root/recovery/kernel/rom it as soon as it gets out of the box, and I was looking at the already available kernels over in the dev section. Seems the options are surprisingly limited. I've never had a galaxy phone, but I do have a galaxy player 5.0 which I've been developing a kernel for so I'm not entirely new to this game.

Normally I would know the answer to this question, which would be no. Are we US users not able to use kernels such as Siyah? His changelogs and descriptions say NOTHING other than "for SG3" and "one kernel for all" or something to that effect. If we can't use it, what's everyone using for a jellybean/non-samsung kernel these days?

And yes, I did look at the sticky at the top of the page and I've been searching all this stuff for days.. just wondering what's good is all. I'm after all the cpu/gpu overclocking, added schedulers and governors, init.rc, all the techy stuff.

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dntesinfrno:
Pulled this from the new user guide stickied in the general forum...as far i know this is the complete list of kernels for the devices covered by this sub forum unless there are any released since the last update to the sticky.

And all kernels are good. Look at the OP of each kernel and all the features will be listed there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] exodus454:
Sorry about that! I'm so used to the Q&A section over in SGP5-land not being used. Thanks for moving it.

I've already looked at all those kernels, apparently leankernel should also be on that list.. it's available over at rootzwiki for the 747. So siyah is a no-go then?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thesefardi12:
I was thinking about Siyah also lol, I'm glad I checked here :eek:

SHALOM TO YOU!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
you might not see a ton of kernels here, but what we do have are great and have great dev support. additionally, some of the ROMs come packaged with such good kernels that there's no need to look anywhere else for one unless you just want to play around.

you'll hear the name "ktoonsez" a lot around here and will quickly forget about siyah...
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Just upgraded to tweeked 3 and have some problems:

1. I can't find the voicemail app & don't know how to call VM. where do I get the app?

2. Buddies now is missing. Won't restore via titanium backup.

3. I migrated from eclipse rom. How do I get the eclipse rom keyboard and colors?

4. Howdo Irestore the default power on and power off animations?

5. Verizon Data APP / My veerizon forces close on startup.

I think that is it for now. Will post when I have some time to play with it.

Mike
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
1. You don't need the app for voicemail. Just dial *86 or hold down 1 in the dialer.

2. Buddies now is considered bloat and you can only use it on the stock launcher anyway. If you want it it is in tweaktools.

3. I believe eclipse keyboard was either a themed ICS or themed Swype (I don't remember which - it was too long ago). Either way both are available if you search. As for the colors - since Nitro stopped working on the charge we don't have that, but there are a lot of themes on tweaktools.

4. Tweaktools

5. It works fine for me. Could be a bad flash, could be something else.

And I guess we have another nocturnal person here.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
The vvm stuff was also deemed bloat, but all of that stuff can be restored using tweaktools OR the system apps and system app flasher in the tweaked op. Jihad has you covered on the rest (thanks Jihad).
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
I got the verizon app to work after deleting and reinstalling. The rest I can live with till I have a chance to research Tweaktools. Most of the stuff is minor and just me being picky as I'm not yet used to the tweeked ROM.

Tweakedtools: doesn't seem to be working. I can get into the menu and install a theme and buddies now, but they don't act as though they ever got installed. even rebooted. What the heck?
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
You have to type su to give the terminal root permissions.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Doh!

Ok. now it has the permission and does install things like buddies now, but when I try to install a theme or boot animation I get the android robot with the exclamation point and it does not install. what can I possibly be doing wrong? do i need to install something like CWM?
[Verizon Droid Charge] stueycaster:
You don't have CWM installed? I doubt it works with stock recovery. When you installed Tweaked did you use the Odin version without CWM? You should get and install CWM.

The only 2 boot animations that work are Stock Galaxy S boot and Stock DROID boot. They use the Samsung format that works with the stock kernel. Themes should work though.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Ok. Now I understand. I did use oden version without cwm. Now I need to oden cwm and I'll be good to go.

EDIT:

Thanks for the info, everything works.

Now I need to find a suitable keyboard---possibly one that mirrors the one in the eclipse rom.

On another note, I'm not all that happy with any of the included themes. How to I create the theme I want?
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
If you know Java and smali, you can rip apart the framework and make your own theme.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
beta.swype.com

The eclipse keyboard is a themed version of this I think.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
I have no idea on how to work with Java or what smali is. :(

I do have the old eclipse ROM. can't i take the theme files from there and somehow load them to the phone?

Regarding the keyoard, I couldn't get that swipe one to install as the app keeps asking me to login and I don't know how to generate a username and password. I'm now thinking that it was a Samsung keyboard, but I could be wrong.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Smali is basically the decompiled Android version of Java. In Android, everything gets packed up in .dex files for the Dalvik VM (Android's optimized version of the Java VM), and when you decompile them, you get Smali. It's like Java, but "distorted", for lack of a better word. If you know how to read Java, you can feel your way around, but it's different enough that even if you're good with Java, you'll have to relearn some things for Smali.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
well...I did some searching on line and I think the stock theme that comes preloaded at the factory is what I want to get back to. Also the default Samsung keyboard is the one I want.

I'm leaning towards tossing tweaked out the window rather than getting frustrated. If I do that what do I loose and how would I add root to stock?

also, I can't manage to get the phone to vibrate when i tap the screen. Haptic feedback. How do I turn it on?
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
No. What you think of as "files" are a series of edits in the framework. Obviously the framework for Tweaked is for Tweaked, and Eclipse is for Eclipse. If you're going to try to interchange these things you may as well just reinstall Eclipse.

For Swype, I'm not sure what you're talking about. There's a big honking button that says "register" on the website.

---------- Post added at 06:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:20 AM ----------

Not sure what you're looking at. The theme in Eclipse is NOTHING like the dickbutt gold (or pumpkin and poo) in stock. And the stock Samsung keyboard is God awful. Why not try something like SwiftKey 3? Swype is pretty good too, and it's free.

To root after restocking, all you would need to do is flash the SuperUser or SuperSU (whichever is your preference) zip in CWM. When you move from Tweaked (the only current custom ROM on the charge, by the way) you lose essentially everything. Dwitherell has put in numerous tweaks to improve the UI speed, and he has put in TSM parts... Plus you'll be back to the bloated whale this phone is at stock.

I believe most of the haptic feedback was removed in Tweaked because most view it as an annoying useless feature. I could be completely wrong but I don't really feel anything even though my haptic feedback is on.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
I did nothing that would add or eliminate haptic feedback (outside of the entry in tsmparts, but I did nothing to hook that in if it needed hooking). Also, the stock samsung keyboard is called AxT9IME.apk. Sorry Tweaked is not to your liking. Have you tried the tw4 theme? That seems closer to the stock look at least. I didn't think anyone used it, but I can do a little work and get a stock theme variant together if you want. Also, rumor is some theme options will be added/returning soon...

And for what its worth flashing something different is a far better alternative then anything to do with a window.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Thanks for all the useful info. I must start by saying that i do like tweaked. It is much faster than what i had with eclipse. That said im not sure how much is due.to the rom and what is due.to the upgrade ota. I believe its mostly the rom. Way to go!

As for colors im not opposed to whats available im just used to what i had. The big complaint is that the calendar widgit does not have black text on a white background. Its not as legible but not horible. I can live with it. Im surprised there is no way to change colors like there is in windows control panel. Or an app for that. Oh well.

Thanks for.the keyboard.info. I'll take a look for it at lunch. As for missing the register button...it was to early to be doing anything tech.

Im sure that over time ill get more used to tweaked and be glad ro be uding it.

One last request...stock shutdown animation

Thats enough for now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
To be fair most of the speed change is due to the OTA - most of the edits made were the same as they were in the FP1 version, so I can't really take credit for that sort of thing. I don't have nor do I pretend to have the sort of skill necessary to do such things :)

As far as the stock shutdown animation, if there's some interest I could try to get that together. It required a number of framework.jar edits to switch the shutdown animation focus from reading a .qmg file to displaying a sequence of .pngs, so I would have to undo that sort of thing to make the shutdown.qmg work again. It wouldn't be too hard, so if there's some interest in that I can put something together and throw it on tweaktools.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
I have interest but am not sure who else does and if its worth the time.

I googled the keyboard apk and downloaded it but it will not install. Is there a certain version that i need?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
FWIW, I really lock the Tweaked Shutdown animation. Just need to find a sound byte to go with that (for those occasions when my phone shuts down without me knowing) - thinking of getting something from Southpark's tweak.

as for keyboards, have you tried ICS Keyboard? best in my experience.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Ice is not my thing. I just like the Samsung keyboard best. Just can't find a copy that installs.

Also what about stock screenshot setting?
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Tweaktools. And there are much better options than the stock screenshot app, it was removed because the back and home combination didn't always work in some occasions.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Thanks again. Now i have the.keyboard i like. Woo hoo. I know its a small thing but it makes me happy.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
help:

Started using the phone and when i go into the email program, within a minute the program stops and requires force close. I tried rebooting, clearing cache and data. still craps out. Should I reload the stock email program?
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Any theme? Can others replicate this? To be honest I never used the native e-mail apk, just GMail.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tmanschuette:
My email works fine. I'm only using it for yahoo, but I haven't had any problems.

(~: Tweaked out on Peace :~)
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Im glad to hear that it works for you. For me though, it seems as if the gremlins took roost in the program amd will not leave.

Should i reinstall the program? replace it with another? Give up on technology all together and become amish? lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Heck, even the Amish use cell phones. I don't think they've got smartphones though...that's evil technology: http://emtoast.com/?p=776
[Verizon Droid Charge] jusliloleme:
What were/are you doing when email stops? Reading, writing, both or something else?

There are other email apps out there if you want to try them. K-9 Mail comes to mind and I did use that for awhile before I rooted T2. I now use the"stock" email in T3 and haven't had any problems (so far at least). I have 2 email accounts set up, though, admittedly, they don't get much traffic.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
What am i doing when the program blows up?

Opening the program, reading email, downloading attachments, opening emails, closing the program. No uniform cause.

I have an aol account and a gmail that i use. I get a lot of stuff.

Edit: the XDA app crashed on me too. All i was doing was opening it.

Maybe i meed to reinstall the upgrade as something is definatly wrong.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jusliloleme:
Well, I've spent the last hour or so exercising the T3 mail app trying to break it, to no avail. I can only suggest that during your root process, something went amiss. You may want to try it again.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Sounds great. Im up for a reupgrade
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
So i just wasted an hour of my life that ill never get back. I reinstalled everything including the ota and email program still crashes.

what now?

i guess for now ill iuse k9 email.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Antoneus1231:
I have 4 email accounts on my phone using the stock android email apps and touchdown. No problems here.

. :: TSM Tweaked 3.0 . FP5 Kernel . Pirated Theme :: .
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
By crashing, do you mean it force closes? If so, could you get a logcat of the incident? I might be able to figure out what's going on if I can see what its getting angry about.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
yes force close. and always within a minute of opening the app. How do I get a logcat?
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Tons of ways really, but an app like aLogcat might be easiest. Just make sure its running before you open the email app, then stop it after the email app FCs.

Help with battery life needed

Hi all, NOOB here, longtime lurker first time poster:

After what seemed like months on tweaked 2.X, life was just great but i felt I couldn't deprive myself of tweaked 3.0 any longer. I have been flashing roms on ODIN and CWM since I bought the Charge on launch day.

After following instructions in the Tweaked thread, my battery life is awful, probably 5X worse than on 2.2. The steps I followed (flashed it 2X)

ODIN'd EP4D->OTA (FP1)->OTA (FP5)-> ODIN Tweaked 3.0 with CWM->wipe data/cache/davlik cache in CWM->start

ODIN'd EP4D->OTA (FP1)->OTA (FP5)-> wipe data/cache/davlik cache in CWM-> ODIN Tweaked 3.0 with CWM->start

Speed is great, but battery sucks. Battery use shows "Android System" as the culprit, using 70% of battery power. CPU spy tells me the phone isnt going into deep sleep spending 70% of its time at 100 MHz.

Only difference in setup I can tell is on 2.2 I have PBJ Kernal and was using SetCPU to OC to 1.2 GHZ and undervolting.

Could lack of OC/UV be causing this? Other suggestions? I would love to stay on 3.0 but instincts are telling me to go back to old set up on 2.2 and leave well enough alone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Something is holding a wakelock, and you can't actually tell what from the built in battery stats, as they aren't nearly granular enough. Go to this thread, download Better Battery Stats, and install it. Charge to full, unplug, and let it run a few hours. Go into BBS and check your partial wakelocks since unplugged. They will tell you what apps are waking up the phone and for how long.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Can someone explain how to use alogcat app. All i get is a bunch of text scrolling up the screen.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
what e-mail accounts do you have tied to the e-mail app? if more than one, try adding just one at a time (one per day) to see if perhaps that account could be the culprit.

FYI, I have 3 e-mail accounts (Verizon, GMAIL, Yahoo), and I have noticed it taking some time to load e-mails if they are too big. so perhaps you might try clearing out your inbox online to see if that helps.

so, it could be a syncing issue as well.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
I have only one aol account that im accessing. How do i know if its a sync issue?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
goto accounts -> sync

the issue could be with your AOL account (does anyone still actually use AOL?). try adding only your gmail to the app and see if the problem persists.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Deaconx31:
Thanks, this has already made improvements, along with freezing an SDM system app I had read about in another thread and doing more work with Gemini app manager. Able to get higher % into deep sleep

BBS says my partial wake lock issue is primarily tied to RILJ (dialer), and battery use shows dialer but I haven't made or received any calls today.

If anyone knows how to fix the RILJ issue, it would be much appreciated.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
RILJ is related to the radios. How's your cell reception? On my Charge, I tended to see that wakelock a lot when I was in weak signal area.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
It might be my issue too. Before i upgraded i used to have full signal now i have half signal and the battery drains crazy fast...20% in an hour. Even with battery defender on.

What do we do about the battery? downgrade?

Btw email crashes with gmail only. K9 does not crash. Still havent figured out that logcat program.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Reilly1812:
I use K9 for 5 accounts with no issues. What is your poll frequency and what are you syncing and what is your msg count and retention? All of this does matter, especially in a weak signal area. This is in regards to battery drain, not gmail btw...

Still Charged Up
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
does it crash when having a wifi or mobile data connection (or both)? what theme are you running?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Deaconx31:
Shrike, you are probably right again. I am observing this at work, which offers awful reception. I will do more testing tonight at home (good reception) and report back if further issues.

This community is great, who needs a new phone when Tweaked makes this one awesome!
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
AOSPT theme. Always on mobile data. Will try wifi when i get home.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
On a good note: one of the guys here in the office suggested reinstalling ozmail and now its working. Dont know why it wasn't.

Now i need to determine why the phone only gets 2 bar reception when it had full signal b4 the OTA update.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
They split 1x and LTE reporting in FP5. Likely, toy aren't actually getting lower signal, it's just reporting LTE instead of 1x.
[Verizon Droid Charge] wcypierre:
you may want to try my automated tool that is located at my siggy :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Now that I'm carrying it with me, I'm noticing that the battery drains very fast. I unplugged it at 4:30pm when I left work with a full battery and it was down to 10% by 9:30pm. I downloaded the better battery stats program and I'm going to see what it tells me. I didn't even use the phone except for one 5 minute phone call.

Also looking for a way to understand why reception is down since the upgrade. Did Verizon give us a downgrade?
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
No. Now it actually tells you lte (or cdma/1x depending on what you are using currently) signal strenght. Previously it just told you 1x no matter what.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Where does it say that? All I have is a signal strength indicator with 3 bars where I used to have 5. Are you talking about the 4G icon? that always says 4G. maybe it has to do with the theme and icon changes?
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
It's internal. Prior versions of the baseband only reported 1x signal strength to the kernel, so you were always seeing the strength of the 1x connection, regardless of whether or not you were connected to LTE. Now, the baseband reports both 1x and LTE to the kernel, and the kernel shows the LTE strength if you are connected to LTE, and the 1x strength otherwise. LTE is data only. Your voice and SMS is always carried by the CDMA(1x) network, so in an LTE area, your phone has two connections to Verizon, one for LTE data, and one for everything else. It's quite frequent that the LTE signal is weaker than the 1x, because Verizon usually does not have as many towers LTE enabled. You've always been connected to two different signals that have two different strengths, but the phone hasn't had the capability of reporting the LTE signal to you before. Now it does, so you might look like you have a weaker signal when your LTE has always been that weak...you've just never been able to see it before.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Also if you go into Settings -> About Phone -> Status it tells you 3G/4G strength and 1X strength separately.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Oh crap!

Just when I thought everything was working... I found the email program (ozmail) crashing on me again. Always within a minute of opening.Wwhat am I to do? Go back to using k9? Go back to stock rom? Try the aLogCat?
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
That one - or any other means to get a log of the error. Then send it my way and I'll see what I can come up with. I suggest PMing me the link, and saving the file/output of the log as a text file and uploading it via something like dropbox.
