[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ta1bot:
Hi,

I am trying to build my own custom ROM(JellyBean) and observed that any apk that is placed in the /system/app(adb push somefile.apk /system/app) folder gets a corresponding .dex file in the /cache/dalvik-cache. But when I install this apk using "adb install some.apk", an entry in the /data/app folder gets added with the corresponding package name.

1) If an apk is pushed in the /system/app folder is it being cached for some performance benefit? Will there also be some part of this apk residing in the RAM after it is pushed?

2) Will this .dex file in the dalvik-cache folder ever get deleted?

3) Does installing an app(and not running it) still cause some memory to be occupied in the RAM/Cache? I have observed that installing around 120 apps on my device causes it to be less responsive.

I have tried to find a thread with these questions but not much luck. Any insights would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

.dex still exists after a cache wipe

I did a dalvik cache wipe and after a reboot this .dex is recreated. Looks like this .dex will never be deleted. :mad:

Dude, i presume you are trying to install it while the phone is on.

Put the ics file in Flashtoo/firmwares.

Switch your phone off

Enter flashmode by vol- and put usb in, red light will come

then flash ics

Hi all,

I have aquestion and couldn't find any reply on this forum: Does anyone know how to configure a transfer of all my incoming SMS/MMS to another number? :confused:

FYI: I got a new phone from my job and don't need to carry my Defy+ around with me all the time anymore. I set up a call transfer to receive incoming calls on the new phone but it doesn't work for messages. :(

What I'm looking to do is basically the same thing as setting up a rule on your e-mail to transfer everything to a second address. If I'm not clear please let me know and I'll explain.

thanks !

Stock and Custom roms produce the same problem.

The internal storage seems to be unmounted and unresponsive.

Browsing on pc, 'phone' storage is empty and I cant move files to it.

in CMW I get 'couldn't open directory' when trying to browse for zips.

Cant install some apps due to inability to access internel sd.

So it seems internel sd is unmounted. Been browsing for hours with no concrete solutions.

[Nexus Q Android Development] kornyone:
Hello,

I have released a very ugly, hacked up dump of my work from July when I attempted to port CyanogenMod 9 to the Nexus Q. It is incomplete, but compiles still, and functional. Developers might find this of use.

There was a large amount of interest in this work when I released a video of 'proof of concept' that went viral in July, before the consumer launch. This work was all created before Google pulled the launch (July), and many weeks before AOSP or OMAP repos had the source for device/vendor.

I call it "Tuna balls" due to the fact it's a raw rip off of the Tuna/Maguro base from CM9, dated July 2012, when I forked and modified it.

The codenames of the branches may be wrong. A lot of the 'bugs' may be easy to fix. Unfortunately, I never came back to this project after July.

As someone who strives for complete, QA process builds, I kept this private for months. I know it's not complete, please understand things don't work flawlessly. No audio (possibly hard to fix) and crashing System UI (probably easy to fix) can ruin your experience, but this can be hacked into shape

* GIT SOURCE *

https://github.com/kornyone/android_device_google_steelhead

https://github.com/kornyone/android_device_tuna_balls

https://github.com/kornyone/vendor_google_steelhead

https://github.com/kornyone/google-kernel-steelhead

Here are my notes/bug list from Github:

"Operation Tuna Balls"

This is a partially complete attempt at porting CyanogenMod 9 (Android 4.0.4) to the Nexus Q.

At the time of original creation (July), there was no other source available. As such, I used the Tuna/Maguro bases to port to the Steelhead, as there were so many common pieces.

This combination worked well for the majority of things. Known bugs never resolved since this project was orphaned in July include:

* No working audio. Mixers fail to load with tuna audio_hw.c. The OMAP "Steelhead" and AOSP "Phantasm" repositiories online have a -very- hacked up version of this file, but intended for Jellybean (as of writing). Also, OMAP has the audio listed as a known issue in their source releases.

* No working NFC. This could be easy to solve, I did not spend much time on it.

* System UI crashes. This should be a simple matter of finding this conflicting Tablet/Phone System UI layouts being requested (should be an overlay setting, likely).

Most everything else works. This includes:

* Bluetooth pair all the things, no hacks needed.

* Wifi works.

* XHDPI resolution works (when System UI doesn't crash).

* HW Acceleration in games work.

* Google Play Market is open for use.

--------------

While I am a maintainer for CyanogenMod, this work is not official in any way. It is incomplete, and I am more or less abandoning it at this point due to a broken Nexus Q and lack of free time. Please hit me up on Freenode (kornyone) for questions, ##nexusq is still open.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] aamhm:
i was looking for good backup solution for battery of my S5830i ,cause in high rate my phone drain in 4 hrs

so i came up with solutions :

1- buy another backup battery ,and keep it with me ,when battery inside the phone goes empty ,i replace it with the full charged one

2- buy bigger size mah like 2680 mah bigger than the original one 1350 mah and same size of the original battery

3- buy power Pack with usb socket ,so i can charge my battery when it drains

4- buy a backup battery case can setup the mobile inside it

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i came with this solution it's 2 AA battery rechargeable with USB , it's small , cheap and easy to carry, it's backup battery for my phone

i bought it and test it , it take 8 hrs to recharge the 2 AA battery 2100mah

and it charge my S5830i in 2-3 hrs over 50% ,i tested it when my phone was empty 0 %

so it's good solution for me

i wish this solutions will interest ppl like me who get crazy when the battery empty while he is using the phone

any more ideas guys ,please share with me
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] soumik shah:
I dont use extra battery, but keeping my screen brightness at 25-30% helps. And using software like juice defender and cpu tuner definately helps me.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] uchihachi:

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] srt99:
don't u think that using a higher power battery will harm my phone...??
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] bobo 11uk:
The power referred to is storage capacity in milliamp hrs. A higher figure means it lasts longer not that it may damage. A higher voltage is what could damage your phone. The larger mah figure is the equivalent of a jug vs a glass
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] srt99:
so u mean to say that it's safe to use higher power battery.!!??

all i have to do is to make sure that the new battery has the same voltage rating as the older one !!

thanks for answering :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] boranium:
interesting...
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] aamhm:
Exactly

like the solution of same battery size with 2860 mah so double time and same voltage and for our s5380i

search on amazon ,i found one there
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] bobo 11uk:
Yes it will say what phone the battery fits. More mah is more time. On the subject of the thread I use a charger I got for a few pounds that takes an aa battery.living in the city I'm always close to a shop selling them.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] srt99:
this is wiered...

when i opened the back cover of the phone and removed the battery,

there was a sticker having model and rating and other no. !!

the rating was 3.7 V and 1100mA

but the battery is rated 1350mA !!!

i don't get this...!!! is it safe ??!

sorry if it's a dumb question..

do u still recommend using higher mAh value even when the phone is rated at 1100mA ??
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] aamhm:
it's ok ,we all here to know what unknown

i read this too

mA is milli ampere

mAh is Milli Ampere per hr

1st you have to know there is different of 1100mA as the Current to charge

2nd that 1350 mah as the Capcity of the Battery

so there is huge different in between

i have bring my multimeter and find out the following that out orginal Charger only take 510 mA to charge the device in 2 hr and half

and also test the USB cable it takes 427 mA to charge the device in more than 3 hrs

anyway the 1100mA i think is the max current that can device handle ,more than that it will damage the circuits in the phone

so take care when u buy a charge that have 1100mA max ,better like the orginal one is 700mA max
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] nikhil_dabral_29:
bro by this i came to knw that if we buy battery with higher mah thn stock we can increase the backup tym bt it should be of same volt na as stock...

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] aamhm:
yes

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:
Hey everyone,

Standby time is probably one of the most important features in a ROM/Kernel combination and its idle time is important to me.

This is due to the fact I work most days, until evening and by the time I get home, I have a couple of hours to kill.

Which is usually food, wash and chill.

On stock, I was averaging about 2 days, with 2.5% drain an hour, on standby.

I flashed PA 2.54 and Faux kernel and HOLYCRAP am I impressed,

0.8% drain an hour on idle.

Just out of curiosity, is this a good average?

Are their better kernels for battery time than Faux, as I was going to try Motley but Faux has impressed.

What do you guys aim for in Idle time?

Thanks,

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 95Z28:
I'm using completely stock unrooted 4.2.1 and can say no, when it comes to standby battery there's basically no room for improvement. I don't have anything syncing in background (that's what my G'nex is for) and don't lose any battery during idle. I can leave it setting for several hours (as in more than 6) at a time and when I check it the most battery loss I've ever seen is 2%. And that's when the battery is below 50% already, if I start at 100 it won't move for 9+ hours of standby.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:

is it Compatible whit Supercharger V6 or does it have a Similar system?
[LG Optimus Me P350] DarkRising:
So you will buy a LG P350? Try buying an P500 or another.

And you must test the ROM first. And yes, any LG Custom ROM works with V6 Supercharger. You can use Virtual Box for that.

but i checked and a P500 costs 1000SEK while an P350 cost 500SEK is it Worth dubble the Price?
[LG Optimus Me P350] DarkRising:
If you want performance i think it's worthy the price. Some hour you may want to install some games and you'll be shocked when you see that your P350 won't allow you to run then. P500 has more performance and i think you'll like very much. If not, try buying a E400.

>Switch Off your phone

>Hold VOLUME DOWN + POWER + CALL BUTTON till recovery mode open
