[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
bootchains are the order of operations for the boot process(aka bootloader). some folks have had thier devices emmc internal memory get corrupted during a cwm session causing the system permissions to read only. since no data can be written on boot, your device is stuck in a bootloop. reflashing the bootchain followed by the stock rom restores the proper boot sequence and read/write permissions allowing the device to boot. the kicker is you want to make sure nothing goes wrong when flashing a bootchain or its brick city. hopefully this makes sense lol

Hi,

What is the best/most stable ICS/JB ROM for the Atrix?

I am going to use it as my primary phone so all phone functions are a must, plus (and this is the main point) I need proper camera and camcorder (not video illusion...)

But I also really need something stable

OK, I guess it's back to GB for now. Any idea why the camera is such a problem on ICS/JB?

Is it not possible to use the GB camera?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorno88:
Consider that ICS/JB and GB are different OS's like windows xp and 7, they have different drivers so as long as these aren't transfered there will be no camera support.

There was an ICS leak which has camera support but is not really for daily use as this is still really buggy (screen issues, battery life terrible, ...)

Dev's are working very hard atm so you can check again in a while but read before you ask as this has been dealt with extensively...

Hi,

I have a question about backing up my phone. I use Titanium Backup and try to make backups somewhat regularly. When flashing a ROM (I'm now on Liquid JB rc7) sometimes I see a note about not restoring data from TBU. Where should i restore from? I think I understand about not restoring system data, but how about application data? I guess I should be using the batch bu/restore option "restore all applications with data"?

Do people backup and restore using the google account?

Thanks for helping out.

Hi all,

After rooting my i9100M from Virgin Mobile (canada) running ICS 4.0.3 I can no longer mount my phone on to my PC.

I tried going through the USB utilities settings, made sure USB debugging is off, and even went through Kies. But no luck.

When I connect the USB the phone vibrates to signal its connected, and it charges, but that is all.

Please help
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
Ok, just some suggestions:

1. Try to use another USB cable, if it is not the original Samsung USB cable.

2. Try to use another USB port on your PCs.

3. Uninstall Kies and re-install it again, as it will re-install the phone drivers too.

4. Try to find another SGS2 and connect it to your PC to check if it is an issue on your PC or the phone.

5. If it is something on your phone, try to flash a stock kernel/ROM.

Good luck !

Hi there!

i remade the clock widget of jellybean 4.2!

i used the official images

and its ready to download from the playstore!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...WluLkplbGx5bmV3LldpZGdldHMuQW5hbG9nQ2xvY2siXQ

hope you like it!

FAQ

why wont the widget open my clock/alarm app?

the reason is because i programmed the widget to open com.android.deskclock

so if your running a rom other then AOSP this might not work for you!

the widget wont show up in my app drawer

if you run android 4.0 or higher it should pop up in the widgets section(if u use stock launcher)

if not please reboot en look again

running android 1.5/2.3

hold your desktop till the menu pops up then selecht widgets and find the clock

if the clock is not listed please reboot

if there are bugs or problems please contact me

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberkid2002:
Hi all,

Can anyone confirm the screens actual aspect ratio? Given the resolution is exactly double the Xoom I was expecting 16:10 which I find breast for comics...

Description on play store seems to suggest 16:9 which I think would be a little too wide for the average comic. Any ideas which is right? I suspect the 16:9 figure takes into account the screen space lost by the navigation bar.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberkid2002:
Haha... .love that auto correction
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
2560 x 1600 is a 16:10 resolution.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberkid2002:
How can Google advertise it as having a 16:9 screen? Not doubting you, just seems like false advertising
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zinfinion:
I presume this is the blurb you are referring to?

I can think of 3 explanations:

A) Someone in marketing screwed up (doubtful).

B) Non-square pixels (incredibly unlikely)

C) Google knows that the average consumer has no clue and only knows two things when it comes to TV/movies: HD and 16:9.

Had Google actually put 16:10 I imagine the vast majority of consumers would be scratching their heads. They could have also stated it was

WQXGA

but I imagine that would have thrown probably 99% of people for a loop, including me.

As it stands, 16:9 is a subset of 16:10 and it was probably smart on Google's part to advertise it as a 16:9 screen when speaking specifically about TV/movies. The hilarious thing though is the vast majority of modern movies are in 2.35:1 which will have pretty significant letterboxing regardless. I doubt anyone wants to carry around a 21:9 tablet though.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
Probably because the useable screen area is 16:9, as the soft keys at the bottom of the screen takes up space.

Has anyone tested this on Maguro?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tjotte:
Just recently got my phone back from service (after 10 weeks) so i'm not re-rooted yet, hence i can not try this on stock myself. Just wanted to give a big thanks to you for creating and developing this :) this is really a truly great way to make use of the nfc and the way it should have been done from the very beginning. I.ex if your out running, listening to music and for some reason need to pause your music, just swipe a previosly attached nfc-tag on your sleve over your pocket with the phone in. And again to start music. Awsome work, thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irotsoma:
It may work on Maguro as long as you're using a fairly recent version of CM10. If I knew anyone with a device, I'd test it myself. It's fairly low risk to test. It only replaces a single file. It's the Nfc.apk in the /system/app/ folder. You could always rename your existing file; install this one; and then reboot and test it out. Also, if you're wary of the zip itself, you can just extract the Nfc.apk and copy it to your /system/app/ folder manually, just don't forget to reboot. Then if it breaks you can just delete the new one and rename the old one back. You could also just backup everything; install the zip; and just restore the backup if anything breaks. Anyway if you decide to be adventurous, let us know how it goes. I'll keep this thread updated if CM makes any other changes that break it again. I use it often, so I'll likely find out pretty quickly. Hopefully, they'll add this as a setting in CM10 some day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] weppa83:
could i use it on every rom cm based?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irotsoma:
It depends on how many modifications were made by the mod around NFC, if any. Also depends on when the last time was that they merged their code with CM. In theory it should work with most CM based mods. You can always try it out as I mentioned above and revert if it breaks. And post here with your results if you try it, so others can benefit.

Screen Off for CM10.1

The CM10.1 version of the screen off version is now posted. File name is NFC_Screen_Off_CM10.1.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irotsoma:
Yes, actually I've been wanting to do this for a while, but I never seem to have the time to dig into the settings UI and how to read that setting. If you or someone else would be willing to create the settings piece and tell me how to access the setting that you create, I'd be happy to alter the NFC service to look at those settings. Ideally there should be a preference with an integer value of 1 for screen off, 2 for screen on but locked, and 3 for screen on and unlocked (default) as that's the value that the service expects currently.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dannyvanderzande:
First of all i would like to thank you posting this, just what I was looking for.

Im running one of the latest cm10.1 nightlies (jan 1st or 2nd) and flashed the NFC_Screen_off_CM10.1zip however it doesn't work while the screen is off, though it does work when the screen is on and the phone is locked. I have a Galaxy Nexus (gsm).

When I logcat the phone I don't see NFC being discovered with the screen of but with the screen on and the phone locked I do see that it discovers an NFC event.

Is there anything that can be done about this?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irotsoma:
That's odd. I didn't have an NFC tag handy when I built the screen off version, so I assumed the same changes I made in CM10 would work in 10.1 since the screen locked version worked. I'll test it on my device and see if I can figure it out as soon as I get some free time. Thanks for letting me know!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dannyvanderzande:
I decided to check the files out myself to try and figure it out and maybe quick fix it myself (which would have saved you the time) by referencing to the 10.0 apk's however I found out they differ a lot more from eachother than I expected so it was a bit too much for my skillz. I found this out using a comparison tool and while I was at it I compared the 10.1 screen lock and 10.1 screen off versions. According to my program they are exactly identical in either file structure as in file contents so I'm guessing something must have gone wrong with renaming or I just don't know how to use the tool? I'm just mentioning this as something I came upon, not to ***** or anything! I really appreciate the work you did!

Anyway.. I had some fun figuring things out and learning about decoding apk's and all of that. Thanks for all the hard word so far and I'll just wait patiently upon the new screen-off version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] username8611:
The screen off one works perfectly for the Toro running the last stable 4.1.2 liquid smooth rom. Awesome work, thanks a million!

Edit: I'm not sure if it makes a difference but I didn't flash it, I pulled the apk from the zip, copied and pasted and reset permissions then restarted.

Settings Patch for CM Source Code

I did a little digging and found that there was a patch submitted to CM10 to include a switch for this in the settings. However, it was rejected by Steve Kondik and abandoned. I took all of the code and merged it into the latest CM10.1 code and it seems to work. I added a patch to the main post, but you have to compile CM from scratch to use it since it touches some framework components. The good news is it should work on any device that CM supports (that uses the NFC.apk though not devices that use NfcNci.apk like the Nexus 4) and should work on both CM10 and 10.1 in most cases.

The patch is basically just a few diff files and a bash script to automate the patching. If anyone is feeling adventurous, feel free to experiment with it. I can't promise it will work for you, but it's fun to try and learn a bit about building CM source code in the process. Basic directions are in the original post. As always I take no responsibility for anything it might break, but I'll be happy to try to troubleshoot if I can. Enjoy!

Thanks for pointing that out. I clarified the previous post a bit. I should have said it should work with any devices that use Nfc.apk. Newer devices that use NfcNci.apk will not work with the patch.
