[Asus Transformer TF700] hiphoplegend:
So it seems that many months on app support is still just as poor as before. I have recently emailed EA to see why the simpsons tapped out wasn't working, but i have had no reply yet.

It really must be due to lazy developers. Is there anything we can do (aside from buying a different tablet)? It makes no sense that, for example, TF700 currently has 5 compatible games from EA and my galaxy s has 12. Obviously in the eyes of the developer old devices are better?

Thoughts?
[Asus Transformer TF700] SurferLTU:
yea... I'm upset too.

Real racing 3 looks so much crappy on tf700 :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] ShadowLea:
No, but most devs, and in particularly EA and Gameloft/Ubisoft, are too lazy to re-create their textures at a higher screen resolution. That is the only reason for the incompatibility: the TF700 has a screen res that's almost twice that of the Galaxy Tab and Galaxy S.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hiphoplegend:
Exactly, they are lazy.

I havent received a reply from EA in regards to this game, despite me emailing them 4 times now. It looks as if it's hopeless now?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ShadowLea:
Give it a year. The new SGS4 is going to have a 1920x1080 screen, and I imagine the Galaxy Tab 3 is expected to sport a resolution bigger than ours (2560x1600). Once Samsung's main line starts asking for apps to have that resolution, EA will have no choice.
[Asus Transformer TF700] vashtriplesix:
irritated

I am very very irritated with Gameloft considering I paid for wildblood and had high hopes for it and a few other games especially since I got the tf700t with its o so great super IPS screen. whole lot of good its doing me now that I can't play at least five games I ether loved or was hoping to love lol, I.e wild blood, Simpsons, asphalt 8 and that mmorpg chaos something and one more can't remember that one to angry lol, no but seriously can someone help me to maybe get some of these games on my tablet. how about this side loading games exactly how do I go about doing this. I have rooted two tabs and a phone so I'm not completely incompetent lol, but I have limited time on a comp so I have to do it quickly and efficiently I'd really love to get the games listed above onto my tf700t someone please help? Owe yes and maybe its just because of my tf but is mass effect an actual playable game on the market like full game status because if so I want it lol just have not seen it?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirlinux03:
Hi guys,

I'm currently a sprint customer with an expired contract and I'm thinking to switch to T-mobile to get the nexus 4 @ $199 with a Classic Unlimited - Unlimited Nationwide 4G Family plan. I have read in other threads that there is a $15 or $20 monthly fee, in my case $30 or $40 since I'm getting two. I don't understand whats is that fee for. Can any of you T-mo customer can explain me what is this fee all about and if that fee is applicable on any T-mo contract?

Happy Holly-days to every one and thanks!!!!

Sorry for ask a t-mo question here , but they don't have any chat on their web page or at least not today. and sorry for my bad English, is not my first language.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonwc:
The fee is only for the value plan. The value plan offers a lower price for people to use their own unlocked phones. For example, unlimited talk, text and 4g data is $70 on the value plan with an unlocked phone. If you buy a nexus 4 from T-Mobile on the value plan, you will pay another $20 per month for 15 months. $200 + $300 in monthly fees is $500. Or you can buy the same phone from Google for $350.

Another advantage of buying from Google is that you are not locked into a contract and can get the $30 prepaid T-Mobile plan.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirlinux03:
thank you Jason, I finally talk with a t-mobile representative on their chat en they told me the same info. I'm really thinking to get tight wit the unlimited contract cuz I really need it. All my family and my wofe family live over seas so we talk and text a lot with them, that's the only reason I'm with sprint(unlimited). So I didn't know t-mobile start with all unlimited till now, that's the only reason I'm moving and the nexus 4 is another reason. But thank you again for all the info.
[General Questions and Answers] Irfdiddy:
So I just bought a galaxy note 2 off of someone and I got it unlocked. So to unlock it the guy put it in the PC and the computer recognized it and it got unlocked. After, I put it into my PC but it is not being recognized by the computer. I can charge it though and yes I did turn USB debugging on. Can someone please help?
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
You could try re-installing the drivers and/or associating the currently install ones to your device.
[General Questions and Answers] Irfdiddy:
Should I do that even though I have another galaxy note 2 that it is working on the computer?
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
In that case just associate it with currently installed driver (it will not affect your other device).

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] d0g:
I find the TW thing (or is it jellybean?) where when it asks you which app to use to open a link/file really annoying ... the whole "Just Once/Always", then the annoying confirmation .... horrible.

Is there any way to implement the older model, where you can just click an app, and hit "always" if you want?

They have this as an option on some of the newer AOSP ROMs (like Slim and I think CM10).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cbass15:
Just click always?

Nah, there are many kinds of links I want to keep option for.

WARNING:

Using this mod may decrease battery life, decrease screen life and/or quality, cause overheating, cause your phone to blow up or cause other damage to your phone. Use at your own risk. I am not responsible for any damage this mod causes to your phone.

This Mod will increase the max brightness of your phone by about 10%.

Note:

Auto Brightness must be turned off for this to work.

Root is required for this Mod.

Instructions:

Download and run app attached to this post.

Or. ..

echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/panel/auto_brightness

If you reboot or enable auto brightness you have to run it again.*

The best way to tell if it worked would be to run it when your screen is already at full brightness. You'll see it go a bit brighter.

Tested on T-Mobile Note II, but this may work in many Samsung Galaxy phones.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Zanr Zij:
It worked!

Could you tell me why it can be increase?

And do you know how many nit when increased?

Thank you!

Sent from my GT-N7100
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] hatcyl:
I don't know and I have no idea.

My guess is that when auto brightness is enabled Samsung allows the device to go a bit brighter in direct sunlight. This Mod seems to half way enable auto brightness so that the screen goes brighter but doesn't enable the light sensor.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] quertiy:
The brightness limitation is at 250, this mode makes it 299.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] brockyneo:
Sounds a good mod just a bit weary of any damage
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] quertiy:
Don't. All aosp roms have this enabled by default.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] brockyneo:
What have the 299 enabled too
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] quertiy:
cm10 aosp aokp paranoid etc
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] hieupham:
Thnx for the info, but will it then decrease the screen life? I think that the brighter the screen and the longer - the sooner it will get worse (old etc) :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] quertiy:
By this logic we should keep the brightness at 20 percent. The brighter it gets the faster the quality decreases in the long run.

I can guarantee one thing: when you'll change your device, this screen mod will not be one of the reasons.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] brockyneo:
Just instslled works great so if cm ect have this set by default then like you say by the time we notice any screen quality loss we are talking a very long time
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] quertiy:
I might have been wrong saying that. When i checked paranoid and applied the mod it didn't work. But today i tried it on galaxy s III with cm10 and it unexpectedly worked. So I'm not quite sure what the deal is. Anyhow I'm gonna take the chance. The brightness gained is too great.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
Just want to be sure I understood correctly.

Every time after reboot or setting auto brightness I need to install this APK? No way to make changes permanent?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] quertiy:
You need to run the app every time, not install the apk.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] hieupham:
Yeah the default setting is not enough in some cases.

You could easily make a script that would do the echo at boot. Im no expert but I think it would happen from /etc/init.d. I'm sure someone smarter than me will chime in hopefully. ...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] quertiy:
Using tasker to run the program at boot its the way to go. The problem is you have to run the program every time you activate auto brightness. Solution to both problems: use perseus kernel. It includes this mod.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] hatcyl:
Are you on stock everything? Some ROM / Kernel Devs incorporate the "brighter" mod in their work, so this app is not necessary.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] SaschaHa:
I'm on Stock MB2 (russian firmware, german device) with Simplistic Framework and latest perseus kernel. I think the perseus kernel is the reason for that. It modifies some screen-values. But it's ok for now. In a few days or weeks I will install a new firmware and do a full-wipe and everything should be fine ;)

Hey man appriciate what you do.

Could you try to help me?

screen brightness is off.

When I hold phone up to te light i can see a bit so i tried factory resetting, and reverting to a backup.

Also tried

find / -name brightness

which displays:

/sys/devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/leds/mmc0::/brightness

/sys/devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.0/leds/mmc1::/brightness

/sys/devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/leds/mmc2::/brightness

/sys/devices/platform/notification-led/leds/white/brightness

/sys/devices/platform/notification-led/leds/red/brightness

/sys/devices/platform/notification-led/leds/green/brightness

/sys/devices/platform/notification-led/leds/blue/brightness

I tried setting all those to 255.

When that failed too i tried: cd /sys/class/backlight & ls

But apparantly nothing was in that directory(/sys/class/backlight), so I tried to manually add a new directory to that folder with mkdir.

And i got an error mkdir: cant create directory 'panel': No such file or directory.

I then mounted / as RW and also tried setting the permissions on that directory but same error.

Is their anyway to forcefully make the file i need and echo 255 into it?

Im about 100% positive its not a hardware issue and i know its hard to claim that.. i really do, but could you pretend :D or if ive exhausted all possibilities already then i guess just thank you for your time :)

P.S. Can you replace the screen behind the digitizer? Im guessing thats where the backlight comes from.

P.S.S. Thanks

EDIT: I WILL TRY JUST USING YOUR APK HAHA, ITS JUST IT WILL REALLY REALLY HURT MY EYES TO DO THIS, and for a kid whoes eyes are hemoraging from too much computers i rather see if i can just forcefully make the correct file and enter 255 into it. MY MODEL IS MB860 running Nuetrinov3.02 rom by cyanogen. (i think thats android 2.4.3)

Then i used a VNC viewer on my computer and i turned the GPS and BLUETOOTH ON.

Brace yourself......

There's much to be said on the internet about screen lag. I realize the most effective combative actions that affect this negative behavior require a combination of settings. Since most of us have wildly various tweaks, settings and requirements for our phones, posing a "how do I get rid of screen lag" question borders on the ridiculous. That said, what has the greatest positive effect on screen lag for your system? Oh, and details on you're settings of course ;)

1. CPU tweaks

2. SysCtl tweaks

3. Build prop tweaks

4. OOM tweaks

5. Minimizing widgets (giving up lol)

Hi Everyone,

I know there are thousands of threads regarding battery consumption on the SGII - I have tried many many suggestions and I still have terrible battery life. I was hoping someone could give me a hand in analyzing if my stats are normal or if there is anything I could do to make it last longer - my battery life is just terrible.

Your log is not looking that bad considering your screen on time of about 2 hours and the CPU usage.

The cause of the largest wakelocks seem to be your music player and synchronization software. Maybe you could get less wakelocks by reconfiguring them.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmuntz:
So you are saying 2 hours of screen on time draining over 70% of my battery is decent? Not sure how much its supposed to give
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
No, this is not what I'm saying.

First the battery draining is not over 70%, it is 64% (according to what your BBS log says). Second, the amount of time the phone spends running with a 'high' CPU frequency is quite large, or, in other words, the amount of time your phone runs at 'low' CPU frequencies or even better, is in deep sleep, is quite small.

Taking all this together I think you do not have abnormal or excessive battery draining.
