Hey!

So I wanted to add the rotation tweak to build.prop which works well on Jelly Bean 4.1.2 but not on 4.2:

launcher.force_enable_rotation=true

and I also tried lock rotation: ro.lock.func=rotatelock and even that does not work!

I don't want to use any custom launchers so what to do to get rotation working? Is there modified stock launcher with rotation enabled yet??

Edit: It's disabled so if want to enable it then launcher2.apk have to be decompiled and then from /res/values/ bools.xml need mdifying launcher rotation text .."=false" to "true" .....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wannagofast:
I too am not able to get rotation working with build prop edits. Anyone else have any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sshede:
Did you save the build.prop? I've done it and it works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 4580957:
There's an alternate launcher you can get at the themes and apps section for the galaxy nexus. It has landscape and a different grid if you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NeoMagus:
Not working for me either on Muzzy's 4.2. Its saving as the line is still there in the prop after reboot just not rotating anymore

** found that launcher zip gonna flash that now and give that a try
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mentose457:
I'm curious. What rotation tweak are you guys referring to? Your default launcher rotates right? Mine does. So does the lock screen.

EDIT: I didn't realize I was in the gnex forum. I'm on 4.1 still on mine still. But my stock n7 is on 4.2 and rotation works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwc realtor:
this is probably because the auto-rotation in the notification shade changed in. If you noticed on the Nexus 7 the auto-rotation toggle moved from besides the date on the notification shade to being one of the tiles on the quick settings panel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I've wrote: I don't like custom launchers! Not even modified with the rows stock launcher!

Stock launcher with rotation is good but not with any other modifacations which makes it to look like older than 4.0 Android version..

CM10 trebuchet launcher would be ok too but it'snot working on JB 4.2 and JB launchers (4.1.2) from play store are laggy and buggy on 4.2 and not working well.

I've made research that how to edit stock launcher to enable rotation and nowhere is guides for it..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mentose457:
Why don't you try Nova launcher or Apex launcher or ADW launcher or go launcher? My favorite is Nova. I even bought the prime version because it is so awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
WHY THE HECK everybody asks why don't you use Nova launcher or Apex launcher...?????

DO YOU UNDERSTAND I wan't stock launcher and not custom launcher with limited features on "FREE VERSION"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blitzed_Penguin:
I also do not want a custom launcher. If I have to choose between stock launcher with no rotate vs. a custom launcher I choose the limited stock launcher.

I do miss the build.prop hack on 4.1.2 but I can't get it to work on 4.2 either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CheesieOnion:
I use Widgetsoid with a toggle to lock the rotation, works well for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blitzed_Penguin:
I am not talking about enabling and disabling auto rotation in the phone settings. I'm talking about getting the home screens to rotate with the stock launcher.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SMQadri:
I have tried a lot as well, changing build.prop, creating default.prop etc... but none helped. I only solution I found to fix this is by using "Ultimate Rotation Control" app. It works perfect and not just rotates the home screen and apps of the stock launcher, it also rotates the lock screen.

The best solution so far for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
I know now why the tweaks does not enable rotation..

it's disabled and it can be enabled by decompiling it and then going to /res/values/ and then have to open bools.xml and change rotation bla bla bla=false to true

then rotation works even without tweaks on build.prop if I remember but somehow the apk decompilers cannot recompile Jelly Bean 4.2 apps on my PCs

(Win7 & Ubuntu 10.04.4)

luckily in Themes and apps section there is stock AOSP launcher with rotation enabled and it works on OTA/Factory ROMs..

but I have modified Jelly Bean 4.2 on my nexus so I have myself try to modify the launcher... :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tokae:
Do you have a copy of this ROM with the modification?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Nope. I have OTA 4.2.1 takju ROM but it's just stock with rooted, busybox, flash player, etc. thread. But I have thread of jelly bean 4.2.x launcher with rotation which can be flashed via cwm. Now in using Motorola theme and its launcher that I modified to get rotation to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gaming09:
what a great app thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aditya R:
Me too

I'm too facing the same problem any developer please help. :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Search from nexus apps and themes section android launcher JB 4.2.2 or find my thread of CM apps and use CyanogenMod trebuchet launcher.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] atb1183:
the JB update for TMO GS3 got a new (atleast to me) night mode that is phenomenal

seems like it's doing multiple captures then merge, noise reduction, and tone map for the result

end result is image quality about equal to when taken with ISO 600-800 but brightness equal to about ISO 3200-6400 when compared to my dSLR (set to f/2.8).

I dont have any sample images on hand. Show me yours

what the pont of this when you have flash?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Vanquiz:
Sometimes flash kills the picture, over exposed, not natural, blown highlight, dark background, you name it ...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Sometimes "Night" mode makes pictures noisy as hell and completely useless.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Vanquiz:
True, that's why it's nice to have both option, especially if the night mode photo is actually usable, not just a failure attempt.

With that being said, so even though we have flash, it's still nice to have a usable low light mode.

Can you guys post the exif data of a pic taken with the new night mode? I'd like to see the ISO the pic is taken in. Usually to take a pic in low light conditions, the ISO is boosted. I just want to see how high the ISO goes to.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bobolinko:
Scene Mode - Night

Flash results in a harsh lighting result, where night mode gives a less harsh, but brighter/clearer picture than we had before.

So, what is the difference between the night mode and the low light? When should I use the night mode? And when should I use the low light mode?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LiquidGlow:
I'm certainly no expert by any means, but I took a couple shots in poor lighting using each mode and the Low Light mode took much more clearer, crisp pictures where as the Night Mode pictures came out grainy.

I don´t know if this has been posted here,

it does work on my N7105 stock rom, rootet with perseus kernel.

External SD card is mounted in / mnt / exdSdCard and for any file manager this is visible but the apps do not see the SD card

install ICS SD Binder vom Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.qbanin.binder

install the app open it

original mountpoint: / mnt / extSdCard

new mountpoint: select external_sd

check in SD Bind to the new mountpoint and unmount original mountpoint

Save & Reboot

leave the folder as mentioned above no changes... believe me ;o)

Not a bug, but who cares, that by this ICS SD workaround leaves only the internal memory displayed on the PC

You can still get your data lby going to the subfolder 'external_sd'

I hope this helped you.

Where is to download , and what is baseband,kernel and build ?

What is Pda, csc , .... ?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razvan0311:
Kernel

When software needs the hardware to do anything, it sends a request to the kernel. And when we say anything, we mean anything. From the brightness of the screen, to the volume level, to initiating a call through the radio, even what's drawn on the display is ultimately controlled by the kernel. For example -- when you tap the search button on your phone, you tell the software to open the search application. What happens is that you touched a certain point on the digitizer, which tells the software that you've touched the screen at those coordinates. The software knows that when that particular spot is touched, the search dialog is supposed to open. The kernel is what tells the digitizer to look (or listen, events are "listened" for) for touches, helps figure out where you touched, and tells the system you touched it. In turn, when the system receives a touch event at a specific point from the kernel (through the driver) it knows what to draw on your screen. Both the hardware and the software communicate both ways with the kernel, and that's how your phone knows when to do something. Input from one side is sent as output to the other, whether it's you playing Angry Birds, or connecting to your car's Bluetooth.

A baseband is the software that connects your phone to your network. The benefits of updating it are more signal reception, which means a lot faster download speeds, better call quality, etc.

PDA represent your build version. Your current build is Build: IML74KXWLP7, then PDA version of your ROM is XWPL7. Again XW represend for countries, XW means it is for France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom.

If suppose your build info contain DDLPA, then DD represens for India and PDA version is LPA, means that ROM is for India

Same way CSC is sales code., you can check your ROM CSC by dialling *#1234#. Again first two digits represents country and last three represents release time. But as such there is no restriction to use any ROM for any country if your device is unlocked(carrier restriction free).

For other informations search the forum.

Hi I'm farely new to xda (over on the Rezound forums mostly). Just recently I've been looking into tablets since my laptop died. My friend has this tablet and from what I've seen and read it's a good buy. Since im replacing my laptop with this I'd need to be able to run exe files. Is it possible to root and mod this to be able to run exe files? Or not since this a an android device? Sorry if this is a basic question again I'm new here. Thanks for help in advance
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
hmmmm, i dont think thats possible. Unless you install a different OS on it. But with pure android OS, i dont think so. EXE is kind of windows specific. But, what app are you trying to install using an EXE file? Im pretty sure there is an android equivelant for the app.
[Asus Transformer TF700] NickS VR4:
May have problems with it as exe is a program compiled for x86/x64, not ARM. Same reason why Windows RT & Pro aren't the same. Pro runs on x64 and can run normal exe's. RT runs on ARM and can't run native windows programs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
And even if it was compiled for ARM, it won't run on Android. EXE is an Windows executable and depends on the Windows runtime libraries.
[Asus Transformer TF700] the_game_master:
It would be nice to see someone developer a full blown version of Wine for Android, or if companies like Codeweavers can make CrossOver for Android to allow the use of .exe Windows applications.

I know this is not impossible and very possible if Android is really just a Google controlled version of Linux.

My first and only paid $ purchase of Linux was Xandros 2.0 desktop OS, and one of that OS main selling features was that it had Crossover integrated into it. I could download .exe's and install them on Xandros and run Windows apps. :laugh:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Private Pyle:
You're looking at two different processor architectures on two different operating systems. You would need a whole lot more than just a crossover/wine for Android. Consider purchasing the Asus Vivo Tab (not the Vivo Tab RT) if you have to run .NET/win32/WinRT executables. Also consider if android has equivalent apps that suit your needs. What kind of Windows programs do you use?

Update:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.max2idea.android.limbo.main&hl=en

If you ran this, installed Trinux on it and ran wine/crossover (provided they even support Trinux) you MIGHT have a chance at running windows apps. But it will likely be insanely slow.

The other option is to buy a new server, install Windows Server 2008/Server 2008 R2, buy a router that supports VPN, get a really good internet service (preferably with symmetrical data rates), buy the XTraLogic RDP app for android, tunnel into your VPN from your android device, set up terminal services on Windows Server, buy one Terminal Services Client Access License, configure RemoteApp in terminal services and run the apps using XTraLogic RDP on your android from your windows server. You would have to keep the server running 24/7.

My point being, even if you could pull this off, it would be incredibly impractical. Consider alternatives, like equivalent apps for Android or an X86 tablet.

You can do it without rooting. I just did. Basically you just boot with an insecure boot image, drop the apk in the /system/app folder, set a couple permissions and rename a couple files, and you have the stock browser without root.

Yes, the stock browser is smoother than Chrome, but it's still not 100% smooth on this hardware and Chrome isn't very far behind in smoothness. The stock browser doesn't feel any smoother on this hardware than it did on the Galaxy Nexus, but Chrome is smoother on this hardware, so the gap has narrowed greatly, to the point that I will actually stick with Chrome even though I thought I couldn't live without the stock browser.
