[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
Errrr..... current CM10.1 has everything but bluetooth and the keyboard backlight. And dman is cracking the whip on bluetooth right now.

Also, the way you word the question betrays a misunderstanding in the process. Most of the ROM developers don't have the knowledge and experience to troubleshoot hardware compatibility problems. We have dman, that's about it. The rest of us, at best, only know enough to gesture furtively in the correct direction or unearth an important path or config file. So, fixes are implemented by dman and rolled out in his sources and ROMs, and his sources are then used by other people to build their ROMs.

---------- Post added at 02:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:34 PM ----------

You give me way too much credit. I only figured out half of the keyboard backlight problem -- the other half necessarily must come from dman as I don't know where to begin on getting the Android core to poke the sysfs.

As for the keyboard, we have a kludge for the Sym key. I'm working on a proper solution, as well as a fix for the voice search and dotcom keys, but in both cases, because we need changes in core classes, it's more a matter of open-source politics than technical troubleshooting.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Yup, the special hardware keys are a issue in CM on every slider phone. Hope you get a proper solution to this, so we don't have to fool around with framework-res and keyboard files :rolleyes:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
It literally comes down to submitting patches to CyanogenMod and AOSP and hoping they see the need. We could just make builds with the patch, but we can't call them CyanogenMod or AOSP then.

Could we compile a list of devices that need extra keycodes? It'd definitely bolster our case to say "these 42 phones are directly affected by the issue solved by this patch", plus I can be more thorough.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Can you elaborate on the the code change you are planning to submit. We can still have a patch on top of CM or AOSP, just like we have so many proprietary files from samsung.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
We need to change certain core classes like KeyEvent and a few others (there's a list in the comments in KeyEvent.java) as well as a few other places to connect the keycodes to their correct behavior. And it needs to be done in a way that works globally for all phones, not just the Glide. Which is, more than anything, a matter of convincing devs bigger than any of us that we know what we're doing, we didn't break anything, and it's a necessary change.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] islandjat:
so I've been taking pictures on the front and the back of the camera and sometimes the picture quality gets a little bit blurry or a lot blurry. I've cleaned the lens on both the front and the back and that only seems to temporarily fix the problem if it fixes the problem at all. I don't know if this is something to do with my phone or if it's something to do with the camera but I just want to hear some thoughts on it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakure:

Yes. i have realized that my Note 2 (N7105) is not as clear as my girlfriends' Note 1 (N7000) camera. Both her front facing camera and back camera looks much more clearer and takes better photos than mine during daylight and in shopping centre. Is there a fix or something to do with the camera firmware? Very curious to get a answer to this.:crying:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ConeyKiller:
Try booting to recovery and restoring a backup.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SuedePflow:
I hold Volume Up + Home + Power, but it goes into Odin mode. How exactly do I boot to recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] f_E_a_R_e_D:
I think if you can get there then you can connect to odin and flash the stock rom and recovery. basically unroot. I am not sure so don't blame me if something goes wrong.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CZ Eddie:
Volume down + power + home = odin mode (download mode)

Volume up + power + home = recovery

But Odin is all you need to flash a new stock rooted ROM.

If you have any nandroids, then you need to get into recovery to restore it there.

Or you can use command line to restore it but that is complicated and I'm not sure of the steps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SuedePflow:
I flashed the ROM from Odin mode but it did not fix it. The same issue persisted.

Thanks for the clarification!

I'll try a wipe and restore now.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SuedePflow:

So glad to have my phone working again. Now to spend all night setting it back up the way it was.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] warrior420:
First off, thanks to all the devs for making this NT awesome...(and other devices, of course) Just want to get that out of the way. :good: :highfive:

I just got the NT from a 1saleaday deal for really cheap a month or so ago, knowing the dev community has made it awesome. And now, I'm getting around to opening the box, and before i set it up, i turned it off, to do some good ol' XDA research. And, oh boy, I've read a lot.... And, I'm seeing this NT being a new beast. Almost overwhelming...

And before i ask a few questions, just want to mention I've had 5+ android phones with TONs of flashing and modding done to them. I normally don't have any issue, and never ask questions, always research and contribute...

SO, with that said: Normally with android phones, What I'm used to is: Root, flash recovery, flash rom, bam, new hawtness. It's usually a simple process, to me... This NT seems to have a lot more to it...

Now my main question is: Do i really need to use an SD card to flash a recovery and CM10.1? I havn't even set this thing up, (let alone care about what is on it...lol) Is there a way i can just use the root methods found on the forum transfer the files to the NT, flash a recovery, and in that recovery flash a rom, all on just the internal memory? (I guess there needs to be partitioning as well... Where would that come in? Probably before the rom flash...) Or does the BN software/bootloader make this difficult on the NT?

I guess I'm looking for just a run down for my situation, where i don't need a backup of the BN software or anything on the tablet, because i just want a sweet tablet with CM10... :fingers-crossed:

Thanks a ton for looking!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] satan89:
Congrats on your NT. :)

Now to your question,

No, you do not have to use the SD recovery method, but its really safe to keep a bootable recovery, that doesn't need any key persses or prompt to enter recovery.

Also having a bootable recovery , you can bypass the stock rooting, recovery flashing etc and directly get to flashing rom. So I'd suggest this. Even a 1gb (or maybe even smaller card) will do.

I personally feel partitioning is unnecessary.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] asawi:
Maybe you can do it another way, but WHY?????

That's what makes the NT so "mod-friendly": that you can do so much via sd-card.

If you want to repartition and the BN partitioning scheme (8 GB user space) is OK for you but you don't have store nearby, burn "repart.img" to sd and run it before rooting.

Burn another image and use that for rooting and flashing an updated recovery.

Start up to that updated recovery and flash your ROM.

Easy peasy!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] warrior420:
First off, thanks for the responses. Last night i hit the NT head on, and am a proud owner of a NT w/ CM10.1 :laugh: I'm REALLY impressed with how it runs 4.2.1. It pretty equal to my Nexus 7 (Hisssss lol..)

Haha, I guess I'm just used to all my Nexus gear thats had no SD card slots, using an SD card is just awkward now. I had to end up pulling out my old netbook to image the cards, lol. But all is good on the NT now. I put CWM6 on the eMMC, and flashed CM10.1, couldn't be happier. It was stable enough, I ended up setting it up for the Girlfriend and calling it her Christmas gift. Smoooth.. :angel: lol.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
SPlanner Widget missing is probably a bug. It is on the phone but broken.

Blocking Mode doesn't seem to work with CDMA, which is probably why its blocked by CSC.

APN editing is blocked via CSC but could be unlocked by Verizon if someone didn't want to root.

The wifi thing isn't a missing feature, but its definitely an annoyance.

What else are you referring to?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Is Blocking Mode available and functioning on the Sprint version? I haven't looked on their forums at all since I got the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
I don't know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Then on what basis are you making the claim of it being a CDMA issue? I just made a thread in the Sprint forums asking users to report their experience with Blocking Mode, or if they even have the ability to use it stock out of the box. We'll see if it really is a CDMA issue or not.

It is a theory? Ever heard of them? It doesnt work for vzw jb gs3 users either from what I read..

I probably should have said Verizon's network instead of just cdma. I always forget about Sprint.

It seems to be network related because the software is mostly the same between variants.

So either Verizon's network has problems or they're being jerks and purposely butchered it so it wouldn't work.

Yeah I dunno.

There is a second blocking mode as well that doesn't entirely work either.

I see you're complaining but you didn't state the reason why you are petitioning for. Can you be more specific?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shill1986:
Petition

I'm going to attempt to try and post a link, the best I can. I just want the features that should be included on the phone, without rooting it. I do plan on rooting the phone, however as the workaround for the bootloader has only just been accomplished recently, and a lot of the stylus features have yet to be worked into most of the ROMs, that I've seen anyway, I'm holding off until something special perks my interest.

In general, I'm just against Verizon butchering the phone, and needlessly at that. I'm not bashing rooting, or saying I don't want to, I'm simply saying I don't want to root the phone to gain access to stock features that should've been included with the phone in the first place. Its just a little backwards from my view.

Only thing we can do is, give feedback. Companies don't listen to us for their decision. And definately not Petitions.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
I would say if you're that upset about Verizon's lack of features either root it and fix it or go to another carrier.

I guarantee Verizon could care less about some silly petition.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wheeless:
After an extensive search of XDA and other forums - I am wondering if anyone has suggestions for a situation in which my PCs (one that is Win7Ultimate and one that is Win8Pro) will only recognize my recently acquired, used Galaxy Tab 7510 when the Tab is placed in "download" or ODIN mode.

Thankfully, I can install CWM recovery and flash other ROMS because the PC's recognize the Tab 7510 when I place it in "Download" mode and use ODIN to flash.

Thankfully, I can use apps like WiFi File Transfer to successfully move files between my PCs and my Tab 7510.

However, I'm completely befuddled about why - when I connect the Tab 7510 to the PC in ordinary operating mode - there is no recognition of a USB connected device at all. Nothing shows up in the Control Panel's Device Manager, nothing shows up in the Windows USB Taskbar notification - from the perspective of the Windows machines there is nothing attached to the PC. I've tried all the tips I've seen written about on this and other forums (uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, trying other USB ports, trying other cables. making sure MTP is checked in settings, making sure USB debugging is/is not checked in settings). None of these has changed the outcome. My PC does not recognize (not at all) the Tab 7510.

But, as soon as I go into "Download" mode on the Tab 7510 - using exactly the same cable plugged into exactly the same USB port - the Tab is recognized and I've flashed three different ROMS (trying different versions of Jelly Bean) and flashed CWM three times and flashed stock ROM twice via the "Download" mode using ODIN on the PC.

Thus, I know that a connection can exist between my PC and Tab 7510 and that the cable and USB ports do work - just not when I'm out of "Download" mode.

Any thoughts or ideas on what the disconnect may be?

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I'm basically having the same problem as OP, but I got that problem in a different way. From what I understand, the "factory cable" will put the device into fastboot, at which point a system.img file can be restored. I had a couple of questions about this which might help OP too.

1) If the 7.2.3 update was installed, could the 7.2.2 system.img work. If so, is there a working link for it?

2) Does fastboot allow adb access as root (assuming the PC drivers are installed?

All I think I need to do is rename Launcher.apk.old back to Launcher.apk (I thought doing this would disable the amazon launcher and I could use ADW Launcher but I guess not). I guess in OP's case it could allow modifying the build.prop back to stock.
