[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Authorita:
I bought a couple of "gold" batteries. Complete with bad grammar and indecipherable phrases printed on the packaging, it claims 2450 mAh. Using it for a few weeks now, the battery itself is legit. 2450? Probably not, but more power than the factory battery EVER provided.

It also doesn't get NEARLY as HOT as the factory battery, no matter what I do with the phone. Stays nice and cool. The only thing that worried me about non-factory batteries is the warnings everyone gives about catching on fire. I figure that heat = fire, so this, being COOLER than factory, should be LESS likely to catch on fire.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] masterleron:
Using my stock battery now on Virtuous G-Lite, getting about 20 hours using data, wifi etc. I will try with my 'gold' battery.

Merry Christmas!:)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] traumatism:
I'd like some information on a good battery myself. one thats a higher capacity than the default that comes with the phone yet uses the default battery door. hope ya dont mind me jumping in the thread masterleron.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] masterleron:
Nah its okay. I got my Fepuisi one from ebay for about a tenner. So far it works good, no heating problems or anything. However it does push the battery door out a little, but not too much to break it.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] traumatism:
cheers man. will take a gander.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
So, let's be honest.. I know that this is a Nook Color board, but given the delay in an HD board coming around, I thought I would throw a bone out there for users. Here are the ground rules for this thread:

1) This only a hold over, and will be moved/closed as appropriate when a correct forum is made.

2) In this forum, this is the only topic where HD/+ content may be posted. Any bleed over to NC threads will be merged were possible, and closed where needed. Consider this thread the entirety of the HD/+ developer board right now.

3) This topic is for true development only; general discussion will be moved to the discussion thread.

With that said, consider this thread open, at least until we know what is happening with an official board..
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] RustedRoot:
How about incorporating this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1994129 here so the discussion can continue, or is it reopened elsewhere?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
That thread is not development ( dev threads must either be the release of software (ROM, kernel, tool), or active development discussion (debugging, error logs, etc). The the guide is handy, it would not belong on a dev board anyway ( when the time comes, its proper place will be general discussion).

Now, if somebody wishes to post a rooting tool, and some guide with it here, that would apply. Otherwise, discussion belongs in the open general thread).
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] RustedRoot:
Are you then going to reopen this thread in the general forum/thread?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
The thread that is open in the general forum is sufficient to handle current discussion. As I have mentioned before, once I have an actual place to put HD threads, they will all be reopened and moved where appropriate. I am sorry that you do not have an HD forum yet, but would also like to remind you that you are lucky to have ANY HD threads in a board for a totally different device.

As it is, this is not the place for this particular discussion. This is a DEV discussion topic. If it will not be used as such, I will close this thread, and just have everything back under the general thread. Given how many people had been asking for this, I had hoped to see more progress than just being badgered here..
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
If you users appreciate help given by me, verygreen, someone0 and others, please stop badgering Divine_Madcat to open other threads here in Nook Color. This is not a Nook HD forum and he is giving us a break by keeping this open. Just keep pushing him and we will lose this one too.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
Like I promised, I am publishing a cwm image that people can boot off sdcard. Grab it here.

To install: gunzip and dd into an sdcard (not a partition, but entire device) whose content you don't care about.

This is targeted at people experimenting with root only at this point, so that they don't need to undergo the full 8-reboots-factory reset scenario.

When you screwed something up in system, just put this sdcard in, and it'll boot on the next reboot cycle.

adb into it, and:

busybox mount /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system /system

fix whatever breakage you introduced, and then umount /system, remove sdcard and reboot.

This is a very minimally functional thing right now, uboot menu and all other fancy stuff is disabled for now.

More full-featured thing and device tree are still coming, hopefully very soon now.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
Thank you, verygreen! Just in time. I semi-bricked my HD+ again messing with framework-res.apk and it won't boot. I was afraid I would have to 8 fail reset again. This should get me out of it. Will report back.

Edit: Worked! Got it to boot to your CWM. Had to install a new driver (Windows) because it has a new device ID. Chose Android ADB Interface from list. Installed fine. ADB worked. Serial number is a dummy 123456789... ADB shelled to mount /system per above command. Pushed original framework-res.apk and rebooted. Victory! Thank you so much.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] LuckBox63:
I have a NST that I rooted awhile back that I love. My brother wants to get a Nook HD or HD+ for his wife and wants to know if I can root that as well. I am having trouble finding specific resources for that. Is the Nook HD+ perm rooted yet? Are there still some work that needs to be done with development? It's a newer device so I would completely understand that.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ibilln:
In progress. See above, here, and here.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] linuxjacques:
Thanks! It's working fine for me too.

I look forward to this. :)
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] sorrowuk:
Thank you for this.

When a CM10 is released and we install it to the sd card , can we still use this sd card for storage etc or does it all have to be taken up by cm10 ?

Also with the current way you are getting past the bootloader does this mean cm10 will only work from an internal sd card and we wouldn't be able to load it from internal memory ?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] someone0:
I don't think he can, at least not initially. Mainly the problem is the locked bootloader. It's like you have a PC that don't allow you to reinstall windows/linux on the HDD/SSD. But it still allow you to boot from USB/CDROM/floppy. Sure in case of linux (not too familiar w/ android, so I won't say that it can for sure), you can have just the kernel on a floppy and the rest of the OS on the HDD. I know some people do this to lock down their machine. The entire OS is sitting on a HDD encrypted with one missing part, the kernel. Then you boot it from the USB which have the kernel and the decryption key for that HDD. It's like a physical authentication method and can be combine with password and that make it two-factor authentication. Then again whoever does that better backup that USB key, or he/she would be toasted if that USB become corrupt or lost.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
Booting from internal storage is possible too, but I we are not in the state yet where people should be replacing BN software with CM, as such I think sdcards provide enough playground for now to mature the product before we move further.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] dbh369:
Noob question, since I am using Windows, how do I 'dd' the image onto the sd card?

TIA

PS found this for other Windows users:

http://nookdevs.com/Nookie_FroYo:_Burning_a_bootable_SD_card

PSS ok, that worked but I couldn't find what I horsed up. Just had to reboot 8 times and start over...
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] CelticWebSolutions:
You can use a few different software in windows to write the image to SD card. Try https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download, I personally use version 0.5 if I have to us a windows machine ;)
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] dbh369:
Thanks, yes, my link got me there too.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
Divine_Madcat,

This one needs to be moved to dev and renamed. It has verygreen's CWM in it. Or at least move that post over there somehow.

edit: you moved his rooting thread there. Why don't you just move his CWM post to that thread and close this thread.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokian69:
Hey all :)

I'm looking for a replacement for my phone as I'm frustrated by it. I have done some research and the phones which I'm leaning towards are the Nexus 4, Optimus G & Droid DNA. (I don't live in the States but I'm going there on holiday now, so I think the DNA is out unless an international variant is coming out soon) I have a maximum budget of $500.

Thanks I really appreciate your advice.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laehtis:
Those are great devices.

I would add SGS3 also to the list.

Galaxy Nexus is good too.

SGS2,for example, is still good choice if you want cheaper.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dmwitz:
You need to ask yourself some questions like : What will the new phone allow me to do that I can't do now? Will I play graphic intense games that require quad core?

I asked myself these questions and more after every new phone that was released after the origonal SGSI. I didn't upgrade until the Note 2 came out. There was no need as far as I was concerned. My passion is photo and photo retouching!

What do you do most with your phone? It may be worth saving up for something you won't be disappointed with after two months.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokian69:
Thanks for the replies :)

Well I manly use my phone for socializing, media and my main means of using the Internet. I occasionally play games and I'm very much a power user.

^^ I thought about the sgs3 and while it's not as powerful as the Optimus G it is significantly cheaper, but then it starts to fall in the Nexus' price range which gives more bang for the buck imho. As for the others I think the Nexus 4 also out performs them.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokian69:
It just is so unreliable. It freezes everyday at least twice if not more and it so so laggy all the time :( Our phone also has extremely little dev support. I have run quite a few roms (Cranium back in the day, Moonrom, Ivendors and Acro's CM9.) and kernels (Cranium 2ghz, Vitality, Skyhigh and CastangaIT) on my phone heck I have even tried numerous scripts (Thunderbolt, Adrenaline, V6 and geeky engine (lol)) but still it always suffers from the above. :(

tl;dr I just want a working Android phone

READ THIS BEFORE POSTING!

I will not humor questions that don't belong int this thread, if I don't have a link or an upload for a patch, that means I don't have it or know of one! If you do not have something productive to bring to this thread, then do not post in this thread! This is to be a reference, not a bogged down endless pit like other threads. If you want to post/contribute, follow the guidelines I have posted in the 2nd post! Thanks!

DISCLAIMER!

I am not responsible for ANY of these patches. If the phone explodes in your hands I can not help you! You must have the knowledge and capabilities to push or flash these patches. It should be apparent based on what type of file they are. If you have questions post them, but do not come here with complaints that I need to fix the patch or your phone.

Hey everyone, since I have mentioned this, I don't know, 10 or 15 times and it hasn't happened, I figured the least I could do is create a reference with any and every CM10 Patch that is available in 1 or 2 posts. Since the OP in the CM10 thread doesn't want to keep it up to par, this will have to do for now. I am not going to say what works and what doesn't for each nightly, this is merely a catch all for patches. If you know of a BT patch from August, post it and I will add it to OP. NFC Patch from October? Post it and I will add it to the OP!

Note: Please don't flood the thread bashing one or another patch. This is a CATCH ALL. I will not remove or delete any patches unless the creator wants it removed, no exceptions. So, if "patch 1" doesn't work for you, simply state "patch 2" did. Essentially this is all going to be trial and error until CM fixes our builds.

So, here is a first up list of patches:

NFC:

- 2 http://www.mediafire.com/?y6vx27cpaasqhxs - Credits to Invisiblek

Wallet

- 1 D2VZW-AOSP Attachment

-Post Patch used

-Post specific issues

-Post if you followed up with the actual creator

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marcismo55:
FYI....You need to tap to focus and then take the picture for the 4.2 Camera to not freeze
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
Never had the issue, and like I have said, this isn't the thread to complain about the problems you are having, the creators don't follow my thread. You need to take your grievances up with them. This is ONLY a catch all, meaning, there will probably never be a 100% stable set of material in here that works for everyone on every version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Lastb0isct:
Do you have links to the original threads? Maybe those should be posted next to the Patches that you post, so we can follow/update that thread if need be.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ogrekane313:
Not a complaint but just noting that they work fine on tw ROMs just not cm well the 4.2 camera that is . But if I tap focus I won't have an issue?

Hey OP,

It might be worth including a link to some of the content (especially the modems and rpms) over at http://truelinux.net/sch-i535/

There you can find all the latest radios and their RPM among other things. Looks some 4.2 apps have been pulled out and separated and so on.

I don't maintain that repo, but I use it and like it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
No, I don't pull what I have from threads. I get them either directly from the creator, or from social postings on G+ or Twitter. I am friends with Koush, KDH, Paul O'Brien, and Adam Outler on G+.

Without people posting what version of CM or other AOSP roms that these things are or are not working, they are defeating the purpose of this thread.

If it is.

Ok

It would be posted here if there was one. Don't post in here if you don't have something to bring to the table.

There is already a radio thread, no need for redundancy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AtLemacks:
Updated OP, please read carefully!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jetdr:
Thank you OP. I really appreciate what you are doing here.

Just an FYI. I clean installed CM10, NFC wasn't working, I downloaded the NFC patch and installed it through recovery and now NFC works perfectly!

Again thanks for doing this.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Question here...

I know that the N7 3G and the N4 are not yet supported by AOSP due to GSM stack licensing issues.

Yet over in the N4 forum they already have AOSP based ROMs and now there are CM10.1 nightly builds. How are they getting that to work if the N4 isn't in AOSP yet?

And whatever they're doing, can the same be done with our N73G in order to make AOSP and CM possible?

Bump... still curious about this.

Right, I'm just perplexed as to how it is that AOSP ROMs are hitting the Nexus 4 without it being in AOSP at all, and yet the same isn't happening for the N73G.

Weird that you guys are getting those speeds, when I tested while on HSPA I was getting around 9 down.. can't remember what was getting up..

However one problem I did have was that I couldn't get any LTE connection at all regardless of where I was.

I went to the bell store and got a new SIM card put in and after that it started to work as it should so don't discount the importance of a working SIM card :)
