I DEF wont be wiring it to constant on power. It'll be switched. My little insert about my jetta was just me brainstorming...that car has some power circuits that are on timers. So without the keys, you can turn on the stereo for a pre-determinted time, etc. A few more options if I decided to hardwire. Having a switch on the power plug would be nice if I use my wife's car, as both her cig lighters are constant on.

In the end...Ill be wiring mine to a plug so I can move it from car to car easily. Just like a GPS. I just picked up a regulated DC-DC adapter that Im going to test. Says it holds 12 via IC control, and it comes with a tip that SHOULD plug right into the power pad. We'll see. I can always fall back on wiring it straight.

And the link I posted...That guy's test is still pretty useful. Its showing that its not exactly sapping energy when not in use. I guess some other charger power bricks pull some measurable power when left plugged in..? I think .0001 watts is pretty insignificant dont you? Even if wired straight to the battery it would take quite a while to drain it any significant amount. Unless Im misunderstanding things...which happens more than I like to admit :)

Regardless, it wont be wired to any constant source, at least in my car. So it should be good. I cant wait to get my mount and try to fit everything together. Little projects like this are fun!

Yeah just find the RAP Fuse etc, (Retain Accessory Power) and connect their...It works great. You may even have the Option like My Jeep does and change the Time-out minutes to suit your needs.....Yeah what he did was Great, and I did give him a Compliment on his work, problem is just that the Kill-a-Watt is for A/C power meter tests/results and the device being tested is D/C power...kWh is a measure of energy, whilst kW is a measure of power...

•a kW is 1000 W and a W is 0.001 kW;

•a kWh is 1000 Wh and a Wh is 0.001 kWh;

•a MW (megawatt) is 1000 kW and a kW is 0.001 MW;

•a MWh (megawatt hour) is 1000 kWh and a kWh is 0.001 MWh

Yeah this is Fun Stuff isn't it???/ LOL...right now I'm doing custom install of a double charger and a single charger, wireless chargers, in my jeep. I'm Hiding the double charger to the underside of the tray inside the center Console and single charger underside of the Tray on Driver's side. You won't be able to see that their is a charger in each location....

Like to see what you do when you get it up and going....
[HTC Droid DNA] JTNiggle:
I do not have a switch for this charger wired in, I did not see the need. The amount of power that this unit draws while not charging is very minimal and the vehicle is driven daily, so we have not had any trouble. I need to make a second one now to put back in my work truck, where I will just wire in line with the existing 12v accessory outlets as they are on 100% of the time. I just like being able to park the car and leave the phone charging if I need for a few minutes or an hour if necessary. If you have to leave the key on then you have a whole bunch of extra accessories trying to run at the same time and then you may kill your car battery trying to boost your cell battery, :p

For multi coil wireless chargers, I thing we will eventually see them built into all kinds of things, at least I hope so. We have that JBL charging speaker, which is way overpriced, but a more basic clock radio with charging coils on top would be nice. Not just one spot, but say the whole top had coils in it and you could set the phone anywhere. Laptops could have an area below the number pad with a coil or 3 in it, that would be great too. It seems to be useful enough that a few people here have cut wireless charger into their desk or night stands, obviously there is a desire for the tech to grow, so I'm sure it will only keep growing in the near future. I think I may end up building one into the kitchen counter for the wife, she likes to use the phone for recipes and music, so it would be great if I can find a neutral spot that isn't too likely to get wet.

Is there a way to install a custom kernel or recovery on Acro S rooted with locked bootloader or do we need root + unlocked bootloader?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Custom kernel no you need unlocked bootloader for that. As for recovery have you tried the CWM for locked bootloaders?

[Motorola Atrix HD] bikedogrun:
Just received an Atrix HD but it is rooted, so won't take any of the Moto Updates ... especially the update to Jellybean.

I have a MAC and no PC access. Is there a method for unrooting this Atrix HD and returning to stock???

Appreciate any & all help and suggestions - Thanks!!!

/BD :o
[Motorola Atrix HD] Markyzz:
You can flash a stock fxz through RSD lite. From there you can update. If you want root still, you will need to root again on ICS and then use OTA Root keeper to save root when you upgrade to JB. Root access isn't holding your phone back from getting updated, it won't update because the previous owner deleted system files.

[Motorola Atrix HD] bikedogrun:
Thank You ... I did find RSD Lite 5.7 MAC and have it installed ... now what ? :o

++ I think RSDLite is Windows-only? Duuuh ... can this even be done on a Mac ? ++

I assume I must find the stock ICS Rom for the Atrix HD, download it and somehow point RSD lite at it ???

Are there instructions ??? I am pretty good at following those instructions if someone can point me to them ???

Thanks again...

Sorry for being a total noob... thought I could do this.

I would be happy to stay on stock and not be rooted... just do not (yet) know how to get there.

Looks like this would have been easier (rsdlite) if I had a PC, but sadly - I do not.

I'm downloading the AT&T .144 utility now, just not sure what to do after that???

I downloaded & unzipped the ATT .144 folder. It contains many files and 3 (adb.exe, fastboot.exe and findstr.exe) which are marked as windows executables.

hboot

Are you on hboot 1.14? If so, the issue with not being able to flash kernels, etc. is normal. All you need to do is extract the boot.img from the rom or kernel you want to flash and flash it via fastboot or an app called "Flash Image GUI".

Write is similar to other Android notetaking and drawing applications but provides a unique set of tools which ease the editing of handwritten text by grouping strokes into lines, much like typed text in a word processor.

Free on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.styluslabs.write

Write supports the S-Pen, although Samsung reserves the pen button for system-wide gestures.

Features:

* tools: draw, erase, select, insert space, and add bookmark

* move strokes and insert space in multiples of the page's ruling

* reflow handwritten text with the insert space tool

* insert bookmarks and label them with handwriting

* cut, copy, paste selection

* unlimited undo/redo jog dial

* pan/zoom with two fingers

* continuous scrolling of document

* customize and save pens

* user defined page size, color, and ruling

* pages can grow automatically as you write

* split screen with web browser to take notes from web pages or videos

* HTML/SVG document format viewable in any modern web browser (PDF export also available)

I'm not a regular Note user (I usually use Write on a 10 inch tablet), so I'd be interested to hear thoughts on how Write can be improved for use on the Note.

This is the best note taking app I've used.

The ability to select and move text is great.

I often want to add information to some I've written previously. On paper, there would be scrawl and arrows all over the page. This makes everything so much neater.

It's also great for correcting things that you wrote earlier.

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] anahataray:
I would love to try this app but it states that my sprint usa note 2 isn't compatible. Is there another link I can use?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] PBSurf:
Very strange that Google Play claims it's incompatible. You can download the APK here: http://www.styluslabs.com/write/Write.apk

You may have to enable the "Force Pen" option in the Input and UI preferences (only GT-Nxxxx Galaxy Note devices are detected properly - this will be fixed in the next release).

[Nook HD, HD+ General] yelloguy:
I just got the CM10 installed on an sd card using bokbokan's images. Everything works great. But the Kindle app thinks it is running on a phone and everything looks super big. I can change the text size and some options but I like the tablet UI much better. Nook app does the same.

So I got this app called LCD Density and tried changing mine from the default 240 to 300. The whole Android UI adjusted itself and looked better (smaller) but the Kindle app and the Nook app were unaffected.

1. Is there a way to put these apps into Tablet mode?

2. Is there a way to stick the new density across reboots using this app?

TIA.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Don't use the LCD app. On CM10 it is ok to change /system without worrying about resetting your device. So go to /system and look for build.prop. Edit that file with your root file manager. There is a line that ends ...density=240. Change that to 300. But you will have to edit it every time you flash a new ROM. The way to get around that is to create a file in /data named local.prop. Put this line in it.

qemu.sf.lcd_density=300

That will not get overwritten in a rom flash.

The kindle and nook apps detect how they should display themselves based on lcd density and screen size. The only way to get them into tablet mode is to REDUCE density not raise it. So you need to make a choice, higher density and phone mode, or lower density and tablet mode.

Sent from my Nook HD+ Running CM10 on SD
[Nook HD, HD+ General] yelloguy:
That's it. The problem was the app -- it wasn't changing the density correctly. I just changed it to 160 in the system/build.prop and everything switched to the tablet mode. Kindle and the Nook app work so much better but the UI looks less usable. I changed the system font to Huge and that helped a little. Two more questions:

1. Do you know what is the minimum density where Android still thinks it is a tablet? Is it 180? 200? We already know it switches to phone mode at 240. Of course, I can experiment if I can't find out.

2. Does the Nook HD's native dpi matter at all? You know how the desktop LCD screens have a native mode resolution where everything looks sharp and non-native mode where it maps the OS pixels to native pixels and everything looks blurry? I am wondering if something like that is going on here and I will have to do some dpi -> dip math to find out what is best for the Nook HD.

Thanks again.

Edit: Googling revealed 213 is the magic number. Tried 210 but I still got phone ui. Next I tried 200 and got a tablet ui with everything nicely usable. For someone else, you might want to try 190 or 180.

create or modify files in root directory

I am new to android OS, and I apologize for the following simple question: how do I gain access for creating and modifying a file in /data in my rooted Nook HDPlus (with the set of files and steps you provided. thank you.) I tried to use the Root Browser to create a file in /data for changing my lcd density, but each time I was denied access. Do I need to somehow log into my device as a superuser (how), or do I need to change the setting (how)? Thanks again for your time, expertise, and patience.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Are you sure you are rooted? And when you started root browser the first time, did it ask for root access and did you grant it? Open the superuser app and see if it lists root browser as being granted superuser access. If it does not, go to settings, applications, my apps, root browser and clear the data for it. Then restart root browser and if really rooted it will ask for superuser access.

Following the steps you outlined, it all worked out. My Nook HD+ now is in higher resolution. The Root Browser was not in the Superuser listing, somehow. Again, thanks for the help.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda6969:
The N4 is finicky with cut sims. Many users have had problems with cut sims that work in one phone but not in the N4. Others get them working for a while and then they error. Others manage to get them cut perfectly and they work.

You need to get a real micro sim. Don't use cut down ones.

First off, upon trying to install the Myth 2 ROM on my Ace, everything went well. It all installed perfectly fine like it should. CWM said "Install Complete. Reboot Phone." But, when i clicked Reboot Now, BOOM. Nothing. Official Black screen of doom. Won't do anything now. No Recovery Mode, No Download Mode, No powering on, no nothing. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions on fixing this issue and Resurrecting the dead?

I've searched and searched without any decent results. I did find the Samsung 1-click unbrick, but the phone won't recognize on the computer to run the program.

I also have what they call a USB jig. I'm not too sure this will help out with the Galaxy Ace...But i'm really thinking just about anything i'll try.

I must add though, when i plug it up to my computer, it makes the USB plugged in sound, and on ODIN, it shows it's plugged in and reading. Even says "Added" and "Detected" ODIN gets hung up on "Setting up connection" though and then fails after awhile.
