[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @rbiter:
Anybody think this feature can be enabled on the nexus4? My power button rarely ever sees any use because of pgm2 app. Slide to wake and tap to wake are a feature that needs to start seeing the light of day on phones to come. Awesome feature for those that don't know what it does.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] blue tang:
I've had my GS3 since launch and everything's been great (love the FreeGS3 rom) until yesterday. Suddenly my phone is super hot and the battery drain crazy fast...as in 1% every minute or two. When I plug in the phone it continues draining from the battery unless the phone is turned off or shuts off from battery drain. Then and only then does it charge back up. I have tried restarting, factory resetting, wiping and roming again and the problem is still here.

Anyone have any ideas?

Sounds like a bad battery. Is the battery getting hot or your phone itself?

Sent from Pluto.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] blue tang:
pretty sure the phone itself is getting hot. The heat starts the second i turn it on and it begins down towards the bottom of the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] drberry:
Interesting... I just updated to Jelly Bean last Wednesday night and mine has been doing the same thing since then. I can't take my cell in the bldg so I leave it in my car. Thurs. & Fri my phone was completely dead. I always make sure that the screen brightness is turned down, wifi off, gps off, sync off, and data off. and the phone still died.. Its really bugging the crap out of me and I'm hoping to go have to ICS within the next day or two..

data signal lost/ hot battery

on cm10 nightlies and PARANOIDANDROID 2.53 4.1.2, my phone keeps loosing signal and I have to reboot to get it back. No I am not on a custom rom.... and my battery is getting really hot too. I have tried reflashing the rom aswell no help anyone else having this problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kniz:
I have had terrible battery drain since the update. I charged my phone the other night, woke up to a warm feeling next to my hand and realized it was my phone. (wasn't the warm water bowl)

I also noticed the notification light flashing red. I assume that was due to the phones ambient temperature being too high. It was also at 92% and had been charging all night... (about 8 hours).

I agree-any kind of help would be awesome!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kams01:
Hi, I am a product ambassador with Sprint. For those on the stock ROM with no rooting, would you try reseting your phone to factory defaults? In our testing and experience, the JB update actually made the battery life longer and at least in my case, the phone never felt warm. If you are not in an LTE market, try turning off LTE and wipe your phone if possible. Also, you may have a bad battery. Please visit a Sprint Store and get you battery checked. Thank you.

Hi, just got my new HTC Explorer phone yesterday. I'm just wondering, is the camera really blurred when taking a picture on a monitor (LCD)? Especially when the text(s) part. Or is there a fix/patch/enhancing/app files for our camera? Thanks. I'm still on stock rom.

Our camera is too weak even for a budget phone.

I pretty sure butter is an inseparable part of Jelly Bean, so if you have JB, then you have butter.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmelkon1:
wish that was the case but it clearly states with most jb ports to n1 that there is not butter ie HWA (no butter) :( unless im mistaken??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 350Rocket:
Despite some apps opening slower the rest of the ui is way smoother than it was stock or on cm7.2, thought that was all that the whole butter thing meant. I'm on latest release of evervolv perdo jb rom.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmelkon1:
sure any update would be a vast improvement on performance, but this is not real butter, i would call it margarine at best.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Looking for a real butter? Upgrade your phone to something of the last 1.5 years or so.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 350Rocket:
Same here and besides the video camera and camera preview bugs this ROM is running reliably and is much more smooth than cm7.2 stable release was. Also the digitizer doesn't glitch out as frequently since leaving GB unless its to do with my fingers being more dry as the temperature goes down. Its been months since I went to jb
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuBeX:
Our nexys are much better than other new cells in the market, although it hasn't an official jelly bean with butter it could. the only reason for this is that Google didn't want to support it anymore to buy new nexus devices with jelly bean
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
Not really jellybean can't fit in stock system size. And its not like Google can use a dirty hack to increase is.

As for butter don't make me laugh the GPU (adreno 200) would never cope with running the UI at a constant 60fps and as for the ram well that's the main bottleneck in both quantity and speed.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
It's amazing that our beloved Nexy (launched in 2009) could even run JB in the first place. But it is near to impossible to get the same performance as the latest speed demons out there. The main niggles that prevented Google from releasing JB was the lack of internal system memory and RAM. If you had seen texasice's comparison, the N7 has around 700 MB of stock System memory while the N1 has only 145 MB (stock)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eric.Tasi:
I'm using CM nightly build 20121101. I find that once GPS is turned on, my T959 cannot enter sleep mode(Even after GPS is turned off) untill reboot it with GPS turned off. is there any solution?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stump2000:
This has been a bug since CM9. The phone will not deep sleep if a GPS lock is not obtained first. Since most JB roms now cannot obtain a lock anyway, it is best just to leave the GPS off.
[Android General] movrshakr:
A new version of ADW Launcher was released in late October 2012--both free and EX version.

Many things changed from the previous version.

Quite a few people say "it is better," but I have some issues. First, a phenomenon never seen with the previous version...often, after 'doing things,' when the phone returns to the home screen, there are no icons for brief to not-so-brief time. Very disconcerting. They do eventually populate, but it is shocking when it happens and does not leave the impression of a well-produced app.

Second, with previous versions, I =LIVED= with using the dots placed left and right of the bottom dock to move (navigate) from screen to screen. Those have disappeared, even from the fee version. On my phone, using swipes to move the screen usually launches the app your finger first touches to do the swipe--very annoying. Emails to the dev asking if the navigation dots will return have not been answered.

(NOTE: I am not talking about the INDICATOR dots at top that show what screen you are currently on.)

I present this for people who may be considering ADW to know. The previous versions I highly recommend; the latest, I do not unless issues are resolved.
[Android General] giov87:
Anyone know an alternative way to show opened apps? When i used Nova i could set one like "pinch out" or something.. On ADW i can't fine the way to do that.. Ι avoid using home button every time..
[Android General] movrshakr:
A new update for ADW EX was just released 11-06-12, 1.3.3.7 on my phone.

It did not put back in the dots that will navigate to different screens.

Also, the phenomenon of icons being completely missing (blank screen) after settings changes remains as well.

Disappointment continues.
[Android General] toxicpaulution:
Its crap. I use menu button unlock in my phone and when I do it pops up the settings screen. No way to disable it. I sent an email to the dev and got no response. going back to the old one.
[Android General] movrshakr:
He has not answered any of my two emails to him either.

Does anyone have the old ADW apk? I have a TitaniumBackup, but file in it is not the apk. ???

Attached is a screenshot to prove I have the EX version. If you only have non-EX, I will even use that--I hate this new version so much.
[Android General] Goalba:
The ghost icons effect happens to me each time I change any ADW setting, for me it is no problem because I think it is due to the need of restarting app to make changes happen. I prefer the old scheme when you press the menu button, but I think it is just a matter of habit. Anyway, bugless for me as the previous one, and quite smooth, more than Go Launcher for example, at a friend's Galaxy 3 it makes the phone itself way faster than with Go Launcher.
[Android General] movrshakr:
I just don't see anything that is better than before, and several (important to me) things that are much worse...the "ghost" icons--I call them disappeared icons as they are gone for a LONG time on my phone, and the removal of the navigation dots for screen moves, which was my total navigation mode.

When I swipe to move screens, half the time I activate an app where my finger first touches the screen. Argghhh! I need the dots back. Author won't even answer.
[Android General] movrshakr:
OK, I think I have had a mind out of body situation here...

I deleted the new ADW EX and installed the old one (1.3.3.56). Am in the process of adding my shortcuts to the various 7 screens and setting the options and dock.

BUT...

the main reason I switched back was to get back my "navigation dots" left and right of the dock that I used to navigate from screen to screen. I cannot find how to turn the on in the options.

I have looked and looked. Can someone have mercy on me and tell me how those are commanded to be there, please?

(I KNOW they used to be available because I used them ALL THE TIME to move to different screens.)
[KIN Two Software Development] IT_Tech:
I have been following the xda-developer website for awhile now, as I have a KIN 2m of my own and I have been interested in finding a way to root or replace the current OS with a new one. Since I haven't seen anymore progress with the phone itself, I decided to do some digging and see what I could do myself (I am a programmer and IT Specialist). What I found might be helpful.

According to other posts, and what is floating around the internet, the KIN 2m flash memory is based on the Samsung MoviNAND 8G architecture. The chip itself is the Samsung MoviNAND KLM8G4DEDD-B101 which supplies 8GB of flash memory to the phone. Since this is also a Flash based NAND memory, I decided to investigate into the actual filesystem (FS) which makes up the chip and which WindowsCE 6.0 is based.

Apparently, this particular NAND memory is based on the YAFFS2 (Yet Another Flash File System rev2.0) which supports both little- and big-endian (32 and 64-bit architecture and some 16-bit systems), respectively. Also, the operating systems that are built on this particular FS are WindowsCE, Android, Linux, pSOS, eCos, and ThreadX.

Going off what I had found, I discovered that with regard to WindowsCE in particular, there are four different parts to the KIN NAND set-up: A Portable YAFFS "Core", a YAFFS Direct Interface, the WindowsCE wrapper, and then of course the WindowsCE OS itself. For WindowsCE, the WindowsCE wrapper accesses the YAFFS Direct Interface, not the core directly. In order to write instructions to the NAND and the "core", a set of instructions in three different types are necessary. These types are a POSIX Application Interface, an RTOS Integration Interface, and finally Flash Configuration and Access Interface. I have attached (and pasted) below a diagram of the above description and I have attached a document which was provided by yaffs.net which also covers some of these details.

View attachment 1461518

The POSIX Application Interface allows execution of application code to access the filesystem. These commands that are executed are typically open, close, read, write, etc. The RTOS Integration Interface consists of functions which allows for YAFFS to access the RTOS system resources. The commands are things like lock, unlock, initialize, get time, set error, etc.. Finally, we have a Flash Configuration and Access Interface which allows YAFFS to access the NAND directly and it executes commands such as initialize, read chunk, erase block, etc.)

So this is what I have discovered so far, and I am currently working on seeing where I go from here. I am currently trying to mount my KIN and browse it as a YAFFS filesystem on my computer, and once I do that, I am thinking that I might be able to execute instructions to access the ROM and NAND chip. On the YAFFS.net website there are a lot of good documents on how this FS works and how commands are executed. I am currently trying to read all I can and see if there is anything I can do.

And the plus side is, after all of this digging and experimenting...my KIN still works!! :D
[KIN Two Software Development] slimeq:
very interesting.

wouldn't instructions be executed on the ARM?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture#Instruction_set

the trick would just be getting something on there and running...

Edits:

actually we may have already found a way to execute. it involves XNA or Silverlight and its on these forums somewhere. now compiling something...

must note that this could probably end very poorly.

so how we write android to NAND?

http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ddi0290g/DDI0290G_arm1156t2fs_r0p4_trm.pdf

if we can access a console on the actual kin device we can compile code. now, how exactly we could do that is a mystery to me. the kinOS is running on top of windows CE kernel, so there may be one in there...

that console would be "run23"

[KIN Two Software Development] IT_Tech:
That is a good thought. However, according to what I have found, there is no reason to go looking for a console on the device itself with which to compile/execute code. What I have found, to date, is that because the device is a YAFFS filesystem, if we have the correct drivers installed on our host machine (which can be gained from the internet), we can mount the device as a drive and using Command Prompt on the host machine we can compile and execute the code from there. We can use the commands NVFlash, mount, write, flash_eraseall, etc.

Sorry if this doesn't seem to make an sense at the moment...I am trying to multitask, and I believe I am failing miserably. I will hopefully have more information later.
[KIN Two Software Development] slimeq:
ooh, that's a good one. i think JohnKussak was doing something like that using the NVidia tegra toolkit, but he was not able to connect for some reason.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=894130&page=2

now, from what i understand of YAFFS (which is admittedly very little) it's just a partition of the memory right? or is the YAFFS system on a completely separate piece of memory?

i was reading about the MPU (memory protection unit) in the ARM manual and it described the layout of memory. basically it supports up to 16 blocks, all with 32 bit addresses (4294967295 bytes = 4gb). since there's 8 gb of storage on the kin, it can probably be assumed that 2 of those blocks are used for storage. another block is probably for RAM (256mb). now, the YAFFS system has to be accessible to the ARM somehow (maybe), so there are several possibilities.

1) the YAFFS file system is on a partition of the 8gb storage space

2) the YAFFS file system is on a partition of the 256mb RAM (pretty sure this isn't the case)

3) the YAFFS file system has its own block of memory

regardless, the MPU can be disabled. when it's disabled, no permissions are checked (ever) and we can read/write anywhere we please, including the YAFFS, wherever it may be. i'm not totally sure this is necessary, but i know we've had problems accessing system folders in the past. i suspect disabling the MPU could fix that, if we could manage.

i also suspect that the YAFFS is accessible when the phone is in recovery mode (u+s+b+power), we just need the correct drivers to flash a Tegra 2600 APX chip. i believe i read on the tegra thread that somebody couldn't find that particular driver. it may need to be written.

edit:

just found this https://developer.nvidia.com/tegra-2-technical-reference-manual

you have to apply for access and it can take up to a month i guess. i'm working on that right now. the main item of interest is "16.0 NAND Flash Controller". i'm gonna try looking in some shady places and see if i can't dig that up...

double edit:

just realized that tegra 2 is different than tegra APX, NVidia does not offer an APX manual anymore, if they ever did.

triple edit:

ooooookay. http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/nvflash.htm

just grabbed source for drivers. unfortunately, NVflash does not run on 64 bit systems, which is causing a bit of problems for me...
[KIN Two Software Development] IT_Tech:
From what I understand, YAFFS is a partitioning system. It does not need to be stored as a separate system on a separate piece of memory. However, it does also have the capabilities to be partially RAM based... Which may end up confounding things. If you get a chance, you may have done this already I don't know, but read up on the YAFFS file system on the yaffs.net website--it has a ton of documents on how the system works and the commands it executes, its architecture, etc.

Let me begin here and differentiate between YAFFS types...there are two types of YAFFS formatting--YAFFS1 and YAFFS2. The KIN is formatted using YAFFS2 because it has 8g of space. Yaffs2 is different from Yaffs1 in the fact that it allows for memory sizes greater than 4GB because it supports 4KB pages rather than 512byte pages (Yaffs1). I will spare all the details as they are lengthy, but check out:

yaffs.net/documents/how-yaffs-works and yaffs.net/yaffs-original-specification (paying attention to Yaffs2 and how it relates to it foundation off of Yaffs1). Also, since Yaffs only uses a RAM based system for emulation purposes when the kernel is not being run on a true NAND (or NOR) storage, we can eliminate Option 2. Option 3, may be viable, but I am not sure as to how. Option 1 seems to make the most logical sense (pun intended), because of how the YDI (YAFFS Direct Interface) works with the YAFFS kernel and filesystem, as well as the WindowsCE Wrapper, etc.

Now as for the MPU. Yaffs has a built in code to handle MPU and a way to disable it through a console session on a host machine, but I don't remember where I read it, I believe it was on the yaffs.net website in one of the technical documents... I will work to remember where I found it.

I hope we can get some more people on-board helping with this YAFFS thing. If we could, it might make this go a bit faster, and have more heads working on it. Plus they might see something we don't.

P.S: These are the HARDEST captchas I have ever seen in my entire life! :eek:
