Hi all,

For the purists amongst you, like myself, I have attached a modified, repacked boot image that will mount (automatically) external storage devices to /storage/usbdisk and /storage.

You need to be rooted and unlocked.

Installation:

Backup your boot image with recovery of your choice

Reboot into bootloader

fastboot flash boot neostock421.img

reboot into android

rename vold.txt to vold.fstab (XDA wouldn't let me upload a vold.fstab)

copy and paste vold.fstab (attached) into /system/etc/

set permissions on vold.fstab to 755

reboot

plug in your drive and enjoy

Notes:

The storage device will not show up in settings/storage, that requires modification of the framework, I could do it (if there is a suitable apktool available) and package the lot as an update.zip but for the time being I won't.

Observations:

I have observed that in Root explorer, the device is mounted read-only initially (you can simply remount read-write), but if I open /storage/usbdisk in Estrongs and return to Root Explorer, it's now read-write. Either way, you should no trouble getting read-write.

Warnings:

Do the above at your own risk, I take no responsibility, bla bla, etc etc.

Hello! Thank you! I can flash this on stock ROM? OTG will work? :confused:
[Nexus 10 Android Development] alias_neo:
Yep,

That's the Idea :D Enjoy.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] xtzz:
Does it support ext3/4 file systems, or only FAT?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] Dahg:
This is not good!

ITS GREAT!

Thank you!!

:D

:good:
[Nexus 10 Android Development] xtzz:
Not working here :\
[Nexus 10 Android Development] alias_neo:
It just auto mounts existing supported file systems, nothing more, nothing less.

I haven't tested it with anything other than a fat file system cause that's all I have on my pen drives.

Unfortunately the N10 doesn't appear to source enough power to power my 2.5" hdd, shame cause my XOOM used to power it just fine.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] xtzz:
I am using an external WD My Book Essential with external power supply. Is it suppposed to have a notification after it's plugged in? Cause it doesn't happen and it doesn't appear in Settings -> Storage.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] alias_neo:
Nope, no notification, and nothing in Settings->Storage (like I said in OP).

Just open your file browser and it's mounted and visible in 3 places;

/mnt/usbdisk

/storage/usbdisk

/usbdisk
[Nexus 10 Android Development] xtzz:
Had to wait for some time, I guess it needed it to index the files or whatever, finally it's working.

Thanks for your awesome work, I really missed only the USB OTG storage support from the stock jop40d :)
[Nexus 10 Android Development] wptski:
What is your HD formatted in, FAT32 or NFTS?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] wptski:
How does this work with TWRP? Meaning, if a flash drive is selected as the destination, on a reboot of TWRP, is the setting retained?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] Slin1402:
+1

This works with any file system? Only FAT or NTFS, only read or write?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] craigacgomez:
Only FAT... R/W

@alias_neo, hit me up on PM... I'd like to work with you to get this to a better state... aka, NTFS & settings storage support... I'm not running stock right now, so I need someone to send me some files and test it!!
[Nexus 10 Android Development] alias_neo:
Yep that's right guys, as Craig says. If you want NTFS, go check out his amazing ROM, this is only intended for those that want to stay stock as possible.

After the 4.2 update on my N10, (which I just got yesterday) the camera shortcut is gone on the lock screen. Is this customizable? Can we add whatever shortcuts we want, or do I need a 3rd party app or root this son'bisch?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xIC-MACIx:
They removed it because of Apple and their world domination legal campaign. If they kept the swipe left for camera and right for unlock, it would be similar to iPhone's lockscreen. Now it is just a multi-directional circle lockscreen which keep google out of any future lawsuits.

For the galaxy nexus, google made it accessible by swiping from the right edge of the screen, but it seems the phablet UI doesn't include this shortcut.

It enables you to put on standard Sony software on a Sony Xperia smartphone which has the boot loader unlocked.

http://developer.sonymobile.com/201...ocked-xperia-smartphones-video-beta-download/

For now it supports Xperia™ S, Xperia™ arc and Xperia™ arc S, but we plan to add support for more models going forward. At the moment, one software version is available for each supported phone, but our ambition is to offer a selection of software versions released for each phone. For example, this could mean that you can choose between GB and ICS releases.

Is it possible for someone to offer his valuable help and adapt kevdliu's mod for GSM - OTA 4.2.1 ? The dev's mod is working fine except that it always shows 3G even if you are connected to H network. Of course we all know that kev, build that for Verizon which is a CDMA network hence the "bug" for GSM.

I would be very grateful if someone can pull this off, cause no matter how much I tried, I wasn't able to fix this. I'll provide the 4.2.1 OTA SystemUI.apk in case someone wants to help. I will be using this mod on my OVERDRIVE rom and give credits. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Savant:
It would be better to ask kev if he can. Port it to the gsm build because then there will be less bugs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PacerguyDon:
If you're already building the rom yourself, it wouldn't be to difficult to add the mod into your build yourself. Kev has the needed images, edits and additions on his github Click me

It's not to hard to merge the changes into your source code. Then you can build the rom with the mod already added in. This will be your best way to do this mod.

I couldn't sync with kies because I forgot to change the hidden USB settings back to MTB + ADB from when I was doing the root with ODIN. I changed it back to that and it worked
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nabbu:
Well unfortunately im at work right now so I dont have my computer to walk you through the steps. I remember that you have to type *.config, in search, while you are in in the keys folder on your computer. Which will show the configuration files and then double-click on the file that says Kies without anything else in the name. In there you will find a line that looks like this: <somethingsomethinglol 4.0>

The problem is that the Kies program is trying to connect to the 2.0 version of that line AND the 4.0 version so when you copy/save that line and delete it then kies can connect.

So I rooted and flashed my vibrant about 2 years ago. My charging port has malfunctioned and had to order a warranty replacement,but Im afraid I will send it back and they will void the warranty because it is rooted and charge me $400 to my tmobile account. So basically because the charge port no longer works I can not hook it up to usb and odin it back to stop. Any ideas?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
Fixing that port isn't that hard......I've heard. Are you getting a replacement or are they fixing yours?

IMO, it shouldn't be an issue as the problem has nothing to do with firmware etc.

So your saying,since its not a software issue to go ahead and send it back? I have tried everything to odin but without the charge port I can not do anything with it. Also,like I said,they replaced my phone already and I am sending the broke one back. Im just afraid they will receive it and then hit me with a bill.

Cant they fix the port and then return to factory themselves after they repair the problem?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Execusa:
Hi guys, I need some serious help. I had the original Note and upgraded to the Note 2. My wife got my original Note. The Note 2 is not rooted. I had my new Note 2 for about 4 days, when I notice that my 4G/LTE (I am in Denver) "switches off" and then I don't have a data connection (can't connect to internet etc.), but I still show full towers on the phone and I can make phone calls. When I restart the phone, the connection is restored and I have 4G/LTE. I can also restore my 4G/LTE by switching my phone back and forth between airplane mode.

At times I would be hours without a data connection and then suddenly the connection restores itself (without me restarting the phone). I have compared my connection to my wife's original Note and her phone has constant 4G/LTE, even when I have no connection on my new phone. It is not area specific since I might have no data connection in the morning, but in the afternoon everything is fine (that is now if I don't restart the phone and just leave it be). I took the phone back to Best Buy and exchanged it for a new one and I have the same problem with this phone.

It is driving me crazy since I need my data connection. I've been on the phone with ATT and we've reset the phone and did all that. No luck. They are checking into "other solutions" but I am not hopeful. My questions:

1) What can I do. Anybody else with this problem and how did you fix it.

2) Is this a phone problem or tower / ATT problem (I don't think tower since my wife's Note is working fine)

3) Should I wait for ATT or try and exchange this again for a third time? My 30 days are running out.

Any input will be much appreciated.

Thanks

That's very interesting. Didn't know that there is an app that doesn't require root access to achieve this.

Hi all.

Can somebody please explain me why Super AMOLED display uses so much power when displaying white image?

I can surf the web only 4 hours on max brightness.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delsus:
Its not just the screen its the 3g/wifi the screen and everything but the screen is bit so it needs more power than a smaller screen. That's just one reason.

I am surfing on wi-fi. Also i have 3G turned off
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJ87D:
It's science! Literally.

White light is suppose to be the brightest light while black is its opposite. The way these phones work is that the black pixels, pure black, are just pixels turned off. Now apply the opposite logic with white.

But for the phones, I'm not sure exactly. But I think red is the least power consuming, I forget.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ausboy 2011:
Yea your right black is least consuming
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HiTmAans:
I believe it's the way standard screen and amoled screens work.

Amoled: imagine the individual pixel, it has its own colour and light. When displaying black as mentioned before all the pixels are literally switched off which is why blacks look so deep with amoled. For whatever colour only a few pixels are on. Which controls what colour you see. However for white all the pixels have to be on as you can imagine the amount of power spent for a white screen is much higher.

Standard LCD screens generally work where all the pixxels are white and they are behind tiny pixel filters each having Their own colour (RGB like amoled) they can easily lets say switch the filters off and remove them so that it only displays white. Black is more difficult to display I'm not sure why I could be wrong but I think it's because the light from the other pixels comes in causing blacks to be less deep this is the same with colours they look more washed out

Anyways

So amoled is like having loads of little light bulbs of different colour that are on at different intensities to create whatever colour. Standard LCD is like loads of white bulbs or a big white bulb and the colour is controlled by holding filters over it of different colour infront of it which needs less power.

That's my understand ing but please correct me if I'm wrong! I read about one years ago but cant remember properly

Hope it helps!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilmark91:
because the AMOLED, unlike the normal LCD, uses three LED RBG. to have the color white needs to turn on the three LEDs and then spend more energy. In fact, the websites often have the white background.

try putting the color reversed so as to have the black background (you save energy because it does not need to turn the usual LED)

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Angry Sprint Customer:
I'm really starting to consider this tablet, but in my courses, I need heavy math usage, and would like to know a few things:

First of all, I have the "engineer's handwriting," meaning my handwriting is very clear (on paper at least, haha)

Assuming this, how well is the recognition for more complicated math formulas?

Can it do matrices? Can it recognize hats/vectors or other accents of a variable?

Also, when you "save" it onto the note pad, does it:

-act like an image

-act like actual text on the document

-or both?

Likewise, how would you rate the customization of how the formula is represented, if any.

Lastly, can it be set so that the equation is recognized and formatted into LaTex notation?

I've taken some looks on YouTube, but I only find integrals, sums, and that sort, and not much of higher level stuffs.

If there are any math students here, how would you rate the use of this tablet for math notes?
