I can't remember which podcast I heard it on, I'm thinking Android Central, but google's ultimate goal is to use photosphere as a way to crowdsource aditional streetview resources. I don't know if this means it will eventually see google maps intigration, or not, but its a super interesting idea imho.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] digitalsynner85:
yeah it seems that when you do a photosphere, you can "share" it to the maps app and it will be uploaded to google servers and they will approve/decline your photosphere and use it if its a really good one......which i'm so stoked about because i live down a private drive so i would love to show my friends in other places how my place looks lol
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arron9999:
Hi I have a galsxy s2 gt-9100 that is running 4.0.3 (xxlp6) rooted and i want to change the audio setting as the in call volume is low. I have done allot of reading on this but have not get found a answer to this. I have entered the code to access the service menu and select option 5 which just says audio, but it just refreshes to the same menu.

I have tried a different kernel and the menu use to say audio is blocked.

Im stuck now any ideas would be most appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
And you have already set the volume level to maximum in Sound settings?!

If that is not loud enough for you, try to flash latest SiyahKernel and increase the extra sound settings in STweaks app (which will automatically installed after flashing the kernel).

Maybe this can help.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arron9999:
am i right this kernel is only 6 mb in size??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arron9999:
i have flashed with obin but there is no change have i done something wrong?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:
You must change settings in STweaks.

Flashing kernel without changing settings will have no effect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] mikkej2k:
Has there been any indication if T-Mobile will update their original Note to JB 4.1? With AT&T's leaked JB 4.1 update , I'm curious if anyone has heard one way or another where T-Mobile might be with this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] rosedog:
Yeah that is a good question. Along with the Note I'm curious if they're going to also drop the JB update for the SGS2.

I hope they do update the Note soon though. I just updated my SGS3 and I really like Google Now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] daytonahemi08:
I hope they do. I loved it on my gs3! I didnt wanna root but might have too. Is there a note 2 rom available?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] mikkej2k:
Along with the benefits of the upgrade to 4.1 Jellybean , the original Galaxy Note is getting the Premium Suite upgrade. No word on if/when T-Mobile may pass this along officially.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] blacklisted.org:
I've seen the Samsung page about this, and listened carefully at TMoNews.com. Anyone heard or seen anything new about this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] hogasswild:
Unless you're really hung up on the premium suite, I don't see any reason not to go to CM10. I'm using a nightly and 4.2.2 is very stable and fast. I can't believe how smooth the screen transitions are, generally a faster phone overall and you're not stuck with all the other bloatware. I do miss wifi calling, but my coverage has somewhat improved where I live. I also have Google Now, which I'm still playing with. I too got sick of waiting for the 4.1.2 update. So if we could get the premium suite and TMO wifi calling ported over to our CM10 distro, it would be perfect IMHO.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] Techngro:
I agree that CM10 is a great stable fast rom, but it would be nice for Samsung and T-Mobile to give a little support to our phones. I personally would like to see the Suite make it's way down to us, even as a flash alone package from a dev. But considering the lack of devs for our devices, I won't hold my breath.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] BogartOfLaMesa:
I have given up on waiting. Galaxy Note users on Tmobile is so low that I have a feeling they couldn't careless for us anymore if we get the JellyBean update or not. I am here in XDA right now looking for the best custom ROM for the original Galaxy Note. My GNote's stock firmware is already giving me the Windows98-bloated-and-slow effect.

So far I'm leaning more on the Padawan ROM, although not officially for Tmobile, I'll take chance because of the support for the S-Pen. Besides I'm reading on some post that it works.

[UPDATE]

No go on the Padawan. Too much hassle. I need my phone to work, right away. Instead of debugging it, I just installed AvatarROM. I need Wifi Calling though. Please help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micks_address:
Hi folks.

A friend gave me her i9000 and its in mint condition, currently running stock android, not even sure what version yet as i'm getting it tomorrow. I want to root and possibly install something like slimbean and use voodoo sound. I have a Galaxy Nexus and i've used a toolkit to root my nexus and use Goo manager & teamwin touch recover for my nexus. Can i use simillar tools for the i9000?

Cheers,

[Android Software Development] Legomaniac:
Hello Everyone,

I am a Computer Science student at Montana State University, and have taken it upon myself this semester to develop a IOIO based R/C Car controllable by an Android to Android communication platform.

I have recently had a good deal of success with my prototype, and I have decided that it is mature enough that I can share it with this community. Please take a look at my Github repositories and my blog outlining the project details:

http://jimmyblaze.net/

https://github.com/Legomaniac

This is my first major Android project, and I have been learning as I go with this since there is no Android development class available at my University. I realize that some of my code may not be fully up to par with the Android standard, and I am looking forward to gaining input from more experienced developers. It has always been a goal of mine to either start my own open source project or a fork of another, and I believe this is the perfect opportunity to do so.

I think there is great potential in a collection of "shields" for the IOIO similar to the expansion shields that are popular with the Android platform. I have based my project on the concept of a "shield and app combo" that, when refined, could provide a "plug and play" experience in using the IOIO with hobby R/C equipment.

Any input you may have is greatly appreciated!

In your video you said you still have to get Video streaming to work, well I've seen a video on youtube that shows a robot being controlled by an android phone, I'm sorry I wasn't able to find the video now, but if I find it I will send it to you.

Also I've looked a lot for an open source libraries to allow me video stream but failed to find. If you found any can you tell me please :)

By the way I'm on my graduation year studying Computer engineering :)
[Android Software Development] Legomaniac:
Hey, thanks for the response!

Yes, I do still intend to get video working, The closest thing I have found to an Android video stream "library" is the following open source app hosted on Google code:

http://code.google.com/p/spydroid-ipcamera/

The thing that is sad about this project is that the developer disable the client portion of the program, citing issues with MediaPlayer and VideoView not being configurable enough. I was hoping to use VideoView to display the stream from the Droid on the car, but if someone who can build an IP camera app can't do it, than it doesn't look very hopeful for me.
[Android Software Development] OmarBizreh:
check your inbox :)
[Android Software Development] conantroutman:
This is awesome! :)

Keep an eye on the Portal... ;)
[Android Software Development] cuyo11:
Did you developed the virtual joysticks or used an existing library?

Regarding the video stream i think is kinda difficult. Are you planning to use an ip camera?.

Its nice that you are doing everything opensource. Cool project :)
[Android Software Development] dough29:
Wow really good project here !

I also own a R/C car ^^

Do you have really instant response from remote to the car ? No lag ?

Do you think it is possible for an Android phone to communicate directly with the R/C car's receiver ?

Thanks a lot for sharing, gonna keep an eye on it :D

very nice, I was thinking of doing something like this using a microcontroller and a serial to bluetooth converter, but I think this is even better.

well you could run your app on the background and use any existing video streaming app for the video part.

Holy crap! Here I was busy with schoolwork, not checking any of these posts and my video jumps from ~150 to over 7,000 views! Thanks for the awesome front page spot conantroutman!!

I have made quite a bit of progress on this project since I have posted this thread. I have switched the app to a service that runs in the background, and utilized the tools at developer.skype.com to integrate my app with Skype! I have driven it around the halls by the CS offices at my campus quite a few times, successfully piloting it several halls away without being able to see it, so, just with the Skype call.

I will make sure to post my updated video here as soon as I have time to get it together! Right now I have to go to work, but thanks for all the comments! If there are any questions that I haven't answered, sorry about that but I don't quite have time to look at them right now, tomorrow after I get off work I will take a look at what people have been asking and reply to the best of my ability.

Thanks guys! Thanks conantroutman!
[Android Software Development] Legomaniac:
To answer the question right above, right now I only have it working over wifi, so it's "range" is the area covered by the wireless network it is connected to. I hope to be able to refine it to a point that it could work over 4G, so it would have the ability to roam where-ever there are cell towers!

The source for the joysticks that I used can be found at the mobile-anarchy Google code page here: http://code.google.com/p/mobile-anarchy-widgets/

So, how does the android on the car interact with the electronics?

It's another phone right? via USB?
[Android Software Development] Legomaniac:
It is with a IOIO board from Sparkfun electronics:

https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10748

The IOIO is an awesome product and the community surrounding it is very inviting and helpful. It is, in my opinion, the best way to have your Android device interact with hardware.
[Android Software Development] Roastmeat:
You said you use wifi, It doesnt seem that this board has wifi capabilities, what did you use?
[Android Software Development] miffymiffy:
Mate, I am not sure if it is of similar nature, however I have used android with my AR Drone. It uses WiFi and has a camera view on screen with a similar joystick setup.

[Android Software Development] dudeman1996:
It's so awesome I've stumbled across this. I'm making a project very similar to this for college: planning to use a IOIO board to control an RC car which is controlled by an Android app over Bluetooth. I've just got a couple questions that have got me stumped and some help would be really great of you.

I'm a complete novice when it comes to electronics, and I've spent hours doing research, so could you explain to me how the turning mechanism of the front wheels work for the first model you made? I understand a servo comes into play, and how it works in terms of PWM, but I can't seem to grasp how it works completely. I also can't seem to find a servo for a decent price.

My last question is about the motor driver circuit. Reading on the IOIO wiki says you can't connect the motor directly to the board, so a driver circuit is needed in between, again I tried to look this up and where to get it, but couldn't find anything.

Thanks!
[Android Software Development] littleg33k:
I had made a similar app for controlling a robot via WiFi on an Android 2.3 tablet back in summer 2012 during my summer internship. It also had the video feed from a WiFi camera mounted on the bot.

We could not make a proper video for its demonstration but i had short clip which taken at its early development stage. So i uploaded it to youtube and here is the link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iE-beke12A

I only made the app part and don't know anything about the hardware of the bot. The hardware guy told me what all control strings i had to send for different movements. :p

My apologies for creating this new thread under General question. However, I'm new to the forum so it doesn't allow me to post replies to an existing thread on this topic.

Robotics still remains out of reach for many students and researchers due to the high complexity of the hardware and the software, and their typically high cost. However the computing power, sensing capabilities, and intuitive programming interfaces of modern smartphones afford an inexpensive yet highly capable robotic platform. Smartphone based robots are becoming increasingly popular with many exciting applications emerging in both academia and industry (e.g. PhoneSat, SPHERES, etc.).

As a case in point, we created a robot that can recognize, track, and follow a specified color object as well as have the ability to avoid obstacles in its way.

Here is a short video showing the preliminary results:

Please share your thoughts or projects, I'd be happy to hear any suggestions as well.

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] oldpreowner:
I just purchased an evo lte off Craigslist and I would like to put it back to stock. When I try to enable wifi it says there is an error. In the bootloader it says tampered, unlocked, s on, hboot 1.19.0000 also it has twrp recovery.

What steps do I need to take to get back to completely stock as it would be from the store. Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] neopolotin75:
If I'm correct the bootloader will always say tampered unlocked unless you use the tool to rename it...look in original development section...its by Regaw something. You can run the RUU but all the info will be in original development on returning to stock
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
The tool to edit hboot is by regaw_lienad, but it will only work on s-off hboot. You are s-on. Tampered means it's rooted. If you want unrooted stock out of the box, need to run 1.19 RUU. Check the stickies.

hurled from my AOKP'd Evo LTE. Enjoy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] oldpreowner:
Do I have to lock the bootloader before running the ruu?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jscoggs81:
You do have to relock the bootloader through fastboot. Fastboot OEM lock. Then if it boots up afterwards put back in fastboot to run the RUU. I have done this multiple times with success. Afterwards it will not say tampered, but it will.say relocked instead of locked. But I've sent mine into sprint several times for repair and even got a replacement device
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] howard bamber:
I'm a Samsung guy but to stop it saying 'relocked' could you not rewrite that ,before you lock it ? Not changing the command, just the writing it puts up ?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] oldpreowner:
After I re locked the bootloader I had a tough time getting the ruu to run. I ended up having to hook the phone up to the computer in the fast boot screen. The ruu finally ran successfully and I'm now completely back to stock. Thanks for the help!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Luisit0:
So ive mentioned this before, but never was i as sure as i am now, since i tested wt 3 other one x's and i seem to be the one having this issue. My phone usually takes 3+ hours to charge while not in use or completely turned off, sometimes even 4 hours, but thats not the wierd part. The wierdness of this is, from 1% to 80% my phone charges normally and sometimes in about a hour and a half, maybe even in an hour (super fast) but from 81% to 100% it can take anywhere between an hour or as long as 3 full hours...... Ive tried every ROM available for the one xl and all kernels too, not to mention various setups, battery saving methods, etc... And the issue still presists. I tried with my aunt's unrooted 2.20 one xl, a friend's rooted one xl running sense and my neighbor's rooted one xl running cm10 and all 3 charged normally in about 2 hours or 2 hours and a half and charging never slowed down from 1 - 100%, it was constant and normal... Mine charged faster than all 3 one xl's from 1% to 70ish %, but as expected they all hit 100% long before mine even reaches 90%... Ive tried calibrating my battery, charging with the phone completely off, charging while in recovery, charging with a pc, charging underclocked at 1ghz and all processes and apps closed and in deep sleep, etc...... Could this be a bad battery or something battery related? Aside from charging, my phone gives me an average of 12-16 hours before i have to plug it in with moderate usage and about 3-4 hours of on screen time, so the battery seems fine while in use, the bad part is only when charging... Any help/opinion/suggestion is welcome. Thanks in advanced!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zerogun:
That's the same for me. I'm pretty sure that when you have low battery the phone gives you a "fast charge". But the last bit takes a long time.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Luisit0:
aah so thats what fast charge is? but now i wonder why the other 3 one xl's i tested didnt do this o.O
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaptorZX3:
I used WugFresh's tools to unlock and root my Nexus 7, and i think it worked fine.

Now i think the video playback/codecs problem is because of the stock ROM, maybe because Google is trying to stop piracy? Because the Nexus 7 hardware is more than able to playback 1920x1080 high-bitrate MKV, WMV, AVI, etc...but somehow, when using mVideoPlayer, all video formats doesn't work but MP4.

on my Ainol NOVO 7 Elf II (Chinese branded tablet, with Soulflier's Dark Elf v1.1 ROM), they all play fine with mVideoPlayer (i rarely stumbled on a video that just refuse to play), and the tablet is powered by a dual-core Amlogic processor and dual-core Mali-400, much less powerful than the Tegra 3! So i figure it must be stock ROM limitation, right?

While a lot of peoples suggested me to use MX Player, i found that a lot of videos just stutter and lags, they're not as smooth as with mVideoPlayer. I often watch fansubbed anime on these kinds of devices, most of the time they are in MKV, H264 video, AAC or AC3 audio, and subtitles. The goal here is i just don't want to convert videos all the time into MP4 format to watch videos on my Nexus 7, and i want to watch them on it, because my Elf II's screen is just a regular TFT screen and lower res (1024x600), and it got an ugly annoying angle that tend to show when tilting it backward horizontally.

So here are some questions:

-Am i right about stock ROM's video playback limitations?

-If i'm right, if i install a custom ROM, like Glazed Jelly Bean, will i get rid of this?

-How do i install a custom ROM with WugFresh's tools?

-Which custom ROM would you suggest me?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaptorZX3:
i answered my questions by taking a chance, by using temporary boot of TWRP for Nexus 7, and installing Glazed Jelly Bean v2.1.

But the videos playback still suck, pretty much all non-mp4 videos doesn't work with mVideoPlayer, while they all work on my Chinese Android tablet. Would that mean the limitation is actually in the boot/kernel?
