I did a bench mark test using antutu, my nexus s that was currently running paranoid 2.54 and marmite 7.1.3 came up with a very humble score of 3138 , compared to others that was 4000 and higher,, how do they do that? I wish i could optimize my phone like that.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej8989:
ROM: Paranoid Android 2.54

Kernel: Stock @ 1200mhz
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mario Christian Oquias:
How do you that? surely its not just the rom and kernel combo?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej8989:
No tweaks.

When i took that benchmark i was on PA 2.54 with stock kernel, OC'd @ 1200mhz, that's it.

Governor: Performance, I/O Scheduler: Deadline

I also got i9023 btw.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mario Christian Oquias:
really?? hmn.. gonna try that out..hopefully this time its gonna be better. :)

which one did you use? the 4.1.2 or the 4.1.1?

thanks by the way :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej8989:
4.1.2

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej8989:
When i said stock kernel, i meant i didn't flash any kernel.

I used the stock one PA provided :) (same kernel CM10 uses)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mario Christian Oquias:
oh i see... sorry my bad :) well back to flashing again, i didnt knew before that they provided a kernel specifically for the nexus s...so i just flash the rom and gapps then custom kernel ,
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej8989:
just flash PA 2.54 without wiping anything. it will return to stock PA kernel.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mario Christian Oquias:
cool !!! thanks a lot ej8989 for the help, well i still might want to try out other combos as well , but this really rocks! if i find a better one ill give you a heads up , :) :good:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mario Christian Oquias:
Here's my new results... hmn I had to flash again my ROM and did a full wipe . My 2nd attempt was still in 3+++ now as you can see it improved...this is @1400 stock launcher.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] hsyasin:
Hi all,

I've been trying to install Eclipse rom on my droid razr, everything goes alright, but when i reboot, it comes back to my stock moto ICS.

I've installed safestrap v.2.11. Then followed directions on how to use, like,

-Backup stock rom

-Enable safe strap

-Wipe cache, dalvik, factroy data and /system

-Install .zip from internal sdcard

-Then i reboot, but it gets stuck after dual core screen, i see a slight flash and it reboots, and this cycle just keep son repeating

But then when i go into safestrap and disable it, then it does boot up, but goes back to stock ics rom???:confused:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] heblu:
Uninstall safestrap 2.11 and install 3.05. Make an active slot and install rom there
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hsyasin:
Can u kindly explain how to make an active slot and installing rom there, coz i tried making a partition using v2.11 and messed up my sdcard..

Plus, I did try running v3.something and it didn't work at all on my droid razr. Can u kindly post link to the download file?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hsyasin:
Also, that safe strap v3.05 says its for droid bionic..

dont know if that has anything to do with not working with droid razr

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boboman13:
This is my first post, so I hope I'm going about this in the right way. Thanks in advance for your patience and assistance. I haven't been able to find anything related to this issue on these forums or the web, as I think it is a difficult problem to explain and not sure what key words to search by.

At least since Android OS 4.1, and now also with 4.2, I am having issues with the stock SMS app. Many of my contacts are saved in the format 1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx. When I go to the SMS app and click new message, then type in a contact's name, if they have their number formatted as such, the number becomes truncated by removing the parenthesis and what is between them, so it becomes 1 xxx-xxxx. obviously sending the text message fails and does not reach the intended recipient.

It works fine with numbers formatted as 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx, xxx-xxx-xxxx, and (xxx) xxx-xxxx. I've tested it with all these iterations. This is very frustrating and the only workaround is to search back in the SMS history and find that person and click reply, or to go the People app and search for the contact and then click the send SMS icon next to the number under their contact info, or to copy and paste the number from their contact info into the SMS app.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this even on the Android team's radar as a bug that needs fixing? How do I let them know?

UPDATE!!!

Allow me to illustrate the issue with screen shots:

I created 5 test contacts with differently formatted numbers (the numbers were all randomly chosen and you can see they are labeled as follows in the screen shots)

Test 1: 1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx

Test 2: +1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx

Test 3: 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx

Test 4: xxx-xxx-xxxx

Test 5: (xxx) xxx-xxxx

This shows the five contacts when i type in test to the add contact search field

View attachment 1594104

Selecting contact Test 1 as the recipient of SMS/MMS. Notice that the area code is omitted and therefore the contact is not recognized, so no name is populated.

View attachment 1594128

Selecting contact Test 2 as the recipient of SMS/MMS. This works and the name and number of the contact are shown appropriately.

Hi guys,

I have upgraded my phone so that it is now running Cyanogenmod 10. I've also installed the latest Google Apps too.

My problem is that when I try to download an app from Google Play (apps marketplace) it always says....Insufficient Storage.

I have an SD card with 1.8gb of space free left on it.

I have heard that Simple2ext version 3.0.2 is a great solution to my problem....but ...guess what?

I can only download it THROUGH GOOGLE PLAY....grr! Somewhat of a catch 22 situation.

Does anyone know where I can get the apk as I have exhausted all of my options.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cknro:
Ok long story short. I have a i9100g that came to me only displaying 3 icons (phone ! computer). Using the method I found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1619571&page=21 I managed to bring it back to life but no imei.

I managed to write so far a stock 4.0.4, 2.3.6 and 2.3.4 trying to repair the imei problem. I have acces to a good efs folder of a i9100g but even after I replace it on the phone the imei is still unavailable.

I tried using the gsII_repair but it tells me its done but it isnt.

I tried using Efs pro software. With the phone's initial efs files it gave me an error at nv recovery but with the good ones I have the software says everything is ok.

My question is. Should I give up on trying to find a software based repair and try for hardware ?

Or if anyone has any more ideeas that might help I would be glad to try em all.

I must add I have no ideea how the phone got like that before it came to me nor do I have any clue where the phone is from.

I am terribly sorry for posting in the wrong place. I didnt find a q&a for i9100g

[HTC One X+] trellva25:
Iam not sure if any of the one x+ owners out there have experienced this problem. When watching a video, for example using the YouTube app, depending of the type of scene being shown, whether it be an indoor or an outdoor scene, the phone has this gradual change of the the screen brightness level. Now mind you, the display brightness is set to about 15 to 20% and auto brightness is off. Its noticeable as the phone seems to take a second or two to adjust to the new environment within the video.

The dimming issue is also noticeable using the browser, especially when viewing a very dark image and then switch over to a bright one. The phone dims a little when you display the dark image and as you transition to the brighter image it will slowly brighten a little.

This problem can become distracting especially when watching videos that have a lot of transitions between light and dark scenes.

Its less noticeable at brightness levels above 60 to 70%, but i find using the phone at such high brightness level at night irritating to the eyes.

Its annoying since the screen doesn't stay on one consistent brightness level. all the phones i have used before, S3, EVO 3D, S2, NOTE don't show this problem. it doesn't matter what scene is being displayed on the phone, they all maintained constant brightness levels

I would be interested to know if its just my phone that does this or its common issue

Hello,

i found a description for enable the native USB-OTG access on this Website. You don't need any app, e.g. StickMount, for the USB access. This is a flashable patch for your Nexus 7 (grouper) device.

Requirements:

- customize recovery

- root access

- USB-OTG cable

Note:

Use Kernel 3.1.10-g830e42f from CM10-Stable (Only changed entries in boot.img-ramdisk.gz).

Tested with:

JB 4.1.2: CM10-ROM, SmoothROM v4.1 and Stock-ROM

JB 4.2.1: CleanROM v3.0 and StockROM.

Thanks:

- CyanogenMod-Team

- Google for Android

MD5:

for JB 4.1.2: f6adbf30518e7d7985430ef277ac5519

The MODE = 600, I might be wrong but, why not using 666 instead, so that every users can access the data ... might help for >= 4.2.

i got to looking into making this work for 4.2 now im no dev or anything and this is just fumbling around with files in a texteditor and or looking at the system files but could it be as easy a fix for 4.2 as this

## Vold 2.0 fstab for cardhu

#######################
## Regular device mount
##
## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices

# Mounts the first usable partition of the specified device
dev_mount usbdisk /storage/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/tegra-otg
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mid-kid:
Yes, it should be that. I was bored, so i edited the zip so it will remove the files for you: http://ubuntuone.com/40OkIet0BHFnUhbkMx4Dwf
[Nexus 7 Android Development] NicoGa:
Thanks!

but in fact there may be a typo in your files:

In the zip used to flash the patch the file is named : vold.fstab

While in the zip to remove the patch it is named: void.fstab

Shouldn't it be void.fstab everywhere ?

Also I wonder why you have included a patch with the boot ? (curiosity of a newby)

Finally, where could it be possible to find more information on the mounting process in JB >=4.2 ?

[Nexus 7 Android Development] doublin:
Well,I'll do a nandroid and try it myself.

I'll be back in few minutes with feedback.

EDIT:

OK,I just flashed it and plugged in flash drive with some the walking dead episodes.

I can see what's on the flash drive using ES Explorer and Nexus Media Importer.

Problem is i can't open the files. I tried playing the movies using stock movie player and MX Player with no success. Something opens and right after closed back without seeing anything.

Any idea?

EDIT 2:

After a few tests with 2 flash drives ( one NTFS and one FAT16 ) and an external HDD NTFS I noticed that:

The HDD works just fine

The NTFS flash plays only two out of nine episodes.

The FAT16 flash plays two out of four episodes.

Streaming this videos was possible only trough MX Player. Stock video player and ES Explorer's integrated video player didn't work.

I'll keep trying to see what's going on, but anyway this is better than nothing. I was with no USB OTG support with my from and kernel.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Hmmm ... I've had a quick look at the zip file and I think you are mixing up several things which are not related to each other:

The 51-android.rules copied into /system/etc/udev/rules.d is useless because udev it's for identifying an android device connected to a PC and not for mounting a sd-card, even worse udev system isn't installed on Android.

The change in vold.fstab most likely would work, but it's located in /etc and not in /system/etc

Unfortunately /etc is located in the ramdisk of the boot image and so you cannot modify it by patching in recovery :(

Most likely your .zip with the kernel included are working (I didn't check it yet), because the boot image contains a correct vold.fstab ...
