[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
I got a new toy yesterday, so I felt compelled to get it working with my old toy. Here are a couple of pictures of the rev. B Raspberry Pi running Raspbian configured for adb/fastboot use with the Kindle Fire. It's nothing earth-shattering. It just works like you'd expect any other linux box to function. I'm not sure if anybody would actually buy one for this express purpose, but it's nice to know that it does work.

​
[Kindle Fire General] Thepooch:
Very cool kinfauns! Also I'm glad your desktop doesn't look much different than mine with the wires going everywhere:p . My wife asks how I can get anything accomplished I just say "what I know where everything is". ;)
[Kindle Fire General] SierraStroker:
Pretty cool that you can actually order Pi's now. They were backordered for the longest...

What would be cool is if you get the android and the pi talking so you can use the pi to operate the gpio pins and fire some relays or take sensor data. What are your plans for the pi...?
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
My desk is clean! It's the raspberry pi that caused all the wires to get out of place.

I had no specific plans for it when I ordered it. Coupling it to an android device wasn't really anything I had in mind. Now that I have it in hand, I plan to see if it's viable to use it as a backup server and a personal mail/imap server. If that doesn't work out, I want to hook it up to a high water sensor in my sump pump pit to send out a set of email/SMS warnings to notify me of trouble. I'll probably just play around with it some, learn some new things and see if any good ideas pop up.
[Kindle Fire General] gbarry:
I believe I see an unusually large buckyball cube in the picture. You do have an affinity for cool stuff.
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
It's a very capable little device for the money. Not fast, but I don't think anybody would buy it looking for speed.

I sold my KFs when I got the N7, but I missed tinkering around with it and found myself looking around on Craigslist for one soon thereafter. A guy in the town over was selling one that was barely touched for $80. I drove over and made the deal.

He threw in a case that I've never used and probably never will use. Maybe I'll start a new thread offering it for free to a random person who posts a response. ;)

Yeah, it's a 12^3. I wanted to size up to a 16^3 with it being a power of 2 and all. Then I realized how many buckyballs that would actually take to make and I had to hold myself back before it got too crazy. :silly:

What's up guys...long time EOS user, Im currently on EOS 3

I just recently read about 10 underappreciated gems on SNES so I downloaded some emulators and connected my x360 controllers....everything looks and plays great but ALL of the sound is delayed....I've tried SNESDroid, SNES9x, and SuperGNES....they ALL have a sound delay before playing each sound effect...

I've messed with the audio settings to no avail....anyone have any idea how this exact same sound delay could occur across all the emulators?

thanks so much in advance

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BHChief:
I've been at this problem for days and it's been really getting to me. I've been trying to ditch the god-awful Huawei M835 (free phone) for Metro, in favor of a Sprint Evo 4G from a co-worker at a good price. Fast forward and now I've flashed it to Metro PCS....erm...I think. After a day using numerous tutorials trying to piece together things here and there, I am now here. I can call out with no issue. I can't receive calls whatsoever; the dialer doesn't show up and the 1X connection at the top teeters if not moreso now. Depending on how brittle the signal on the phone gets, it'll either dial all the way (tested with a different metro phone) or go straight to voicemail; all while I'm holding the Evo, running nothing. I can text and receive them although they're in super late fashion; like getting 4 frantic texts intended over a span of time, all at once and conversation is minimal at best.

I provisioned my phone for data and whatnot, just to see if it'd help my issue when it was still calling Collect. I get web and it's pretty decently fast. As fast as the 3G was on my iPhone 3GS for AT&T if not faster. I tried picture messaging for the helluva it and it was a no-go although I don't care about the feature. Basically, I'm just looking into reliable talk and text; and if possible getting calls and texts while I'm on wifi (at the hideout). I just moved out on my own and looking for a new job ( :/ ) so having a reliable phone is important what with landing interviews and parents checking up.

I've learned more about phones in the worst way; mostly by hitting a road-block every click but it's interesting nonetheless. I hope one of the Evo Gods can bless my issue. I have documented everything I changed values to in QPST, please excuse the amateurish setup. I feel like I'm missing a value somewhere or have a set of numbers backwards but I can't seem to identify where.

I'd appreciate any feedback and help on my issue. Just to clarify, I'm running on a DigitalKarma v8 ROM, just of the fact that I couldn't find an appropriate Metro ROM. I've flashed the 3032 PRL and upgraded the radios (2.15.00.12.19) and PRI (2.33_003). I'll be checking the forums and reading up on all the many, different phones but I'd really be grateful if a helping hand is extended. I'd even donate via Paypal a few bucks, holidays and unemployment got me down as of now -___-.

Excited to see what you guys have to say! Peace.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmanu:
Hi

I have successfully enjoyed Cyanogenmod9 and now I am back to rooted Xperia Pro mk16i with Stock ROM and unlocked bootloader .

Now I am planning to make arrangements so that I can easily and quickly move back and forth between Cyanogenmod and Stock ROM.

I have taken the backups of both the ROMs(system and data partitions) but the problem is with taking back up of boot partition.

I have the boot.img which I got from freexperiaproject-cyanogenmod-ROM zip file but the problem is with boot partition of Stock ROM. I can't see it in flash memory.

shell@android:/ $ cat /proc/mtd

cat /proc/mtd

dev: size erasesize name

mtd0: 19000000 00020000 "system"

mtd1: 00600000 00020000 "appslog"

mtd2: 06580000 00020000 "cache"

mtd3: 1a400000 00020000 "userdata"

There are only 4 partitions. Where is the boot partition?

Also, am I right in thinking that with boot,system and data partitions as backup, one can keep switching between ROMs by flashing with fastboot ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
You can't. These ROMs use different kernels.

And kernels, which are in boot partitions, are not backed up in SE phones due to certain limitations.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmanu:
And if I have compatible kernel/boot.img for both ROMs

What if I download stock kernel/boot.img from somewhere or compile my own using official source. Is that now possible because that way I'll have everything required to completely run the mobile (cyanogen_kernel + cyanogen_system.img to run cyanogenmod and boot_kernel+ system.img to run Stock ROM ).

Am I right in thinking that for proper booting of mobile ,it requires the boot partition that has a kernel compatible with the ROM in system partition?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satart:
neabour Rees

but u stil need to flash boot.img right?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
You cannot have a kernel, that works on both stock and CyanogenMod ROM.

And kernels can only be installed via PC for our phones.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmanu:
I didn't mean flashing same kernels for both ROMs. I meant keeping both the kernels as backup and flashing them with

their corresponding ROMs. As I have said earlier I have the kernel/boot.img of cyanogenmod and if I get the kernel/boot.img of stock ROM somehow ,then can I move back and forth between these two ROMs by flashing them with their own respective boot.img anytime I want? Is that alright?

And i have no problems in flashing using PC(fastboot,right?). May I know why have you mentioned that?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
Yes you can but you need a computer for that.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weaselmetal:
Hence, it's not really a quick thing to do.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
No, unless you somehow bring a computer around all the time, or someone finds a way to flash kernels without a computer.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandroidnz01:
I think you can do this on a Samsung device.Kernels are placed in sdcard and can be flashed via CWM whereas for Sony devices it is not applicable.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
The problem is, an xperia pro is not a Samsung....
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
Kernels cannot be installed from sdcard on SE devices.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pren22:
Yeah,you'll have to use your computer for that,so there is no way of flashing/restoring boot.img via CWM.

[Defy General] avinash.verma.hbk:
So, this is one of the post where a "user" rants!

Well, I am a software engineer, bought a defy this august thinking that it will be a cool experience after samsung galaxy ace got messed in rain.

I needed something robust. Well, then i invested in defy.

Phone went fine till september when it started giving issue with data cable, never detected my PC. 22nd October i gave it to service center.

Amazingly they give it to me after 2 months on 13 december, Well, better late than never as they say. I happily went back with my phone. Next day in office phone starts rebooting at random and my 3g signal just looks like barely coming in. Tested sim card on a galaxy and network was good. After a lot of research turns out that hardware is faulty, though earlier my phone used to be amazing at 3g.

While checking hardware turns out to be IMEI is different than what i gave and i was not even notified when receiving. Great move. Never mind, called back customer care again and they ask for minimum 20+ days time. Which is again great.

Thought of selling it to shop for atleast 60 USD or roughly 3000 INR. Bought it for 13000 INR. The shopkeeper says that box and bill has a different IMEI and he cant buy it for me, unless its free.

Just dropped motorola a mail

"So, here is my introduction.

I am a customer who buys a defy in august. A month later the usb starts giving an issue, in october i give it to service center, and in december first week i get it back. 2 months? really? and when i take it back to home, turns out that IMEI is different, and my phone just randomly reboots now. Alright, you guys gonna fix.. but well guess what, Service says 20+ days expected time... really? After all this i really wanted to go for a consumer court case, but i really pity how the things are being handled. You want my IMEI.. but which IMEI? thanks to you guys i have TWO IMEIs .. Point of my mail is not to get a solution, coz after all these months i know motorola wont have a solution for me. But Just saying that stay this way and whatever is left of in India .. of present or the future.. none willl ever trust motorola. Know the worst thing? I cant even sell my phone as my box and bill has a different IMEI. Thanks a lot motorola."

I have all valid ground to sue them, but dont want to. Rather i cant. I dont have time to get into this, as i start at morning 8 for office and its usually late when im back. Instead of getting 13000 Rs handset refunded, while loosing thousands a day by not being involved in office doesnt sound fair. Rather taking it as an "accident" that i stumbled across motorola.

Purpose of mail : NOTHING...

Just felt like ranting a bit. Nothing more, am right now sitting in my room with a sony xperia J. Nice display and good battery (though not amazing hardware but am an adventurer, not a power user, I need battery). For performance i use my laptop ;)

While the time i was here in defy community it was good. Enjoyed a lot of custom roms. Quarx's and walter79's work always amazed me.

Anyways, time to switch to xperia community now. :)
[Defy General] niksy+:
Seems unbelievable that you got two faulty devices in a row... Me and my brother have both got DEFY+'s and both are working perfectly fine (never had battery drops on any ROM, come alone some bigger failure). So... I don't know, I'm just sorry that you had such a bad experience when Moto's are one of the most endurable phones (not talking just about the DEFY's now). In my experience and knowledge they are at least.

Oh, nevermind, I don't want to turn this into a Moto-fans vs others thread, just saying :)

I'm glad that you've enjoyed our community! :)
[Defy General] avinash.verma.hbk:
yeah, quite unlucky of me, but more bad was the service they gave to me. Got defy plus after a lot of research and reviews from actual owners. But seriously, motorola needs to learn. If the thing doesn't get sold, i can use it as a navigator (doesnt reboot when data is off) ;) and fix it on my motorcycle.
[Defy General] CodeVanya:
It's so unlucky man. Because Defy is such a 'slave' mobile phone that you can put it to hell and can see it's still working. I'm using Defy for more than 1 year now and you don't know how roughly I'm using it. I'm from the southern part of India and you can guess the lifestyle here. This mobile has survived the dusty climate of Tamil Nadu, the pouring monsoon of Kerala and my software experiments with this poor soul, oh my god if not Defy, it would have screamed! :D I have tested every custom ROMs available for Defy here and it hasn't shown any rejection to any of them whatsoever. No problems with any of the hardware including speakers, display etc. In fact I'm going to try another ROM just after posting this. :cyclops: It is such a reliable machine and what happened to you may be one in a million.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ensifolk:
So I have had my Nexus 4 for 7 exact days, was suffering from a terrible battery life of 1:30 hrs MAX screen-on. Until I flashed CM10.1+Franco's latest kernel and my phone has a 3:30 hrs of screen time on ! :) - I tried AOKP with Faux and some other rom combinations...Any one can explain why?

And clearly the battery life on WIFI surpasses the one on 3g.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
It probably has a lot to do with the "msm_hsic_host" kernel wakelock that is present on the stock kernel. Flashing to either franco or faux kernel is supposed to be a great way to fix it and increase battery life
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Because Franco Kernel is like magic?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barondebxl:
1:30 screen time Max? Damn.... Do you use your phone as a satellite? And WiFi IS ALWAYS better on the battery than 3g, that goes for any phones.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I suggest using https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yLDEsImNvbS5iaWdleWVzMHgwLnRyaWNrc3Rlcm1vZCJd with those kernels. I use Franco's paid app but Trickster is a good free alternative! :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyraOfFire:
Thanks for the suggestion. Tinkering with phone settings is not in my priority list, but knowing what the kernel is doing with my phone is definitely useful if I decide to tinker later.

And free phone state knowledge is priceless :D (as in it has no list price :cyclops:)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Not sure if it has the ability to disable logging and events (i think it does). You can disable those two features for better battery life (very insignificant but every bit helps, right?) and you can disable fsync if you choose to (more IO speed, less stability mainly if your phone was to randomly reboot).

Plus the free color changing is always nice to have.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Mindroid-:
3 to 4 hours with screen on is normal battery life for a stock Nexus 4.

It sounds like you were running something that was draining the battery.

When you updated the phone, the new ROM turned off the culprit.

The battery drain is not necessarily caused by an app, it could be one

of the Google services or bad reception. Even changing the phone's default

settings can result in much better battery life.

Forgive me for this question that's likely been answered before.

I am unable to use any tool to download and flash an updated CM10.1 (cmupdater, cyandelta, rom manager, goo manager). The only thing that is working for me right now is doing an adb sideload from whichever custom recovery I currently have installed (I've used both TWRP and CWM). Install from .zip fails every time. Does anybody know why it's doing this to me? I end up with a soft brick every time I try and I have to go in and do an adb sideload install to get things running again.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eric_Eric_Eric:
Hm, I can't say for sure what the problem is. But, some of those apps are only compatible with certain recoveries. Goo Manager requires the OpenRecovery Script (used in TWRP). ROM Manager and CMUpdater work on CWM Recovery, but I am not sure on TWRP.

Try opening Goo Manager, clicking the overflow menu button, clicking "Install OpenRecovery Script," allowing it to flash the latest TWRP, and then using Goo Manager to auto-flash a ROM.
