[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hubi:
Hi xda,

I got my Nexus 4 last week. I'm really happy with it and paranoid-android except for one missing feature. The good old USB-Connection. I've read a lot of articles and post and I know the reason is that it is physically impossible to mount only a part of a partition.

MTP is also no use for me because it doesn't work on any Linux I've tried without installing and configuring it. What does work is the PTP-Connection. The only disadvantage I see is that I can only access the DCIM folder on the emulated sdcard. Wouldn't it be possible to modify the PTP-Connection so that I can access the whole sdcard?

Of course I'm very interested in other solutions too if there are any...

kind regards & thanks in advance

Hubi
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hubi:
no one? :(

It really pisses me off....

I want to mount my sdcard from a linux systems without root... putting everything into the DCIM folder isn't really a nice solution...

Why didn't android think of linux-users ???

cheers

[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
Hi! I would like to show you my new app idea:

Battery Widget, Virtual Companion & Construction Game!

Send Bou Home.

All you need to do is use your phone as you do it every day.

While your phone discharges or changes temperature you gain points necessary for Bou’s mission competition.

The same happens when you recharge your phone.

To earn such system-generated-points you simply need to place Bou's widget on the screen.

Of course there are other ways to gain points but you will not know unless you join Bou’s enterprise.

No matter what you do - your battery level changes. Use it in Bou game!

The story.

Once upon a time, a cheerful, little creature from the outer space named Bou crashed his tiny spaceship into the planet Earth.

Although he miraculously survived the crash and made friends with the inhabitants of our planet, his good little heart is broken.

He is depressed and misses his family and friends from a peaceful planet called Bou-wonder-Land.

However, in ever misery there is always a glimmer of hope!

Join Bou in his challenge with some unexpected twists!

Be Bou’s companion, devoted friend, engineer and a constructor.

Have unforgettable fun and a lifelong buddy!

The whole story, rules, tips and more you can find at:

http://sendbouhome.com/

Application is available from Google Play:

Some screens:

In case of any question, crashes or problems please write here or PM me.

Thanks in advance!

Voriax.
[Android Apps and Games] Fears:
I kinda like it , I'm concerned about the impact on the battery though.
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
When I was testing it last time, in system stats I had 2-4% of battery usage (on moderate usage).

Looks like SendBouHome takes 2% more than normal battery widget (few mini games and shop visits).

Of course when you will be able to play more games it can change...

But then you will receive more points from the bacground service :)

So you always Win! :)

In short words, after own tests: the impact on battery is minimal :)

Marcin
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
Hi again!

Would be great if you share Your STATISTICS.

Stats after one day of usage would be the best!

Please send info as below:

24h usage statistics

[PHONE MODEL] [PowerPOINTS] P [TempPOINTS] T

you can find such info on Statiscics Screen.

or You can post a screenshot here with Phone Model info.

Would be great and helpful for me because I had opportunity to test it on several Virtual Machines

but only on THREE devices: SGS, SGS2 and HOX

It will help me to calculate and analyze prices, adjust events bonuses and game rewards.

Thanks in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] digi_soul:
Hi!

My stats after about 24h of usage:

Phone: Samsung Galaxy 2

24h: 129P 659T

Phone was charged during night from about 20% to full.

After few games and events I was able to buy quite few cheap things.

And of course inedible food - nice joke! I have lost few points on such purchase! grr
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
Thank you!

It shows that my calculations were quite close to it.

But your score seems to be above everage :) - of course it is score without games and events . Only System Points get into this statistics

With few games and some events you can double it during day.
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
I think that I should describe a game a little bit more.

The point is that it is monitoring the usage of phone: power and temp.

Service is in background, running when you have Bou's widget on the screen - JUST LIKE NORMAL BATTERY WIDGET.

Every change is added to your account.

Just use the level of battery you have lost to buy things in Bou's Rocket Store.

Play games to earn more points.

UPGRADE items by using GEMS, share it... and have fun :)

Some more screens:

STATISTICS and BATTERY&TEMP CHART

EVENTS:

GAMES:

ITEMS, PETS EXAMPLES

AND... WIDGET (in the middle) - Bou's level, Battery level, Temp, Points, items info and percentage of rocket completion:

What do you think?
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
small fixes sent to google Play - will be available soon :)

Hope you tried it - it is kinda wired idea to set game on charging and discharging statistics of your device...

:)
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
more and more users,

any suggestions, improvements, changes?

have a nice game!
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
quite time passed,

any Bous sent home?

:)
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
NEW WIDGET type for Bou = "Pure Battery" :)

go to Settings (on main screen) > activate: "show special battery widget"

see what happens when you have very low battery level :)

have fun!!!
[Android Apps and Games] voriax:
Going back to reanimate Bou idea :)

Collecting consumed battery points can be turn into simple and interesting game.

What would be your most interesting theme?

Briliant! Just found out, that there is CWM for my "old" P9514 ... great work!

Hope there will be some Custom-ROMs soon; maybe on CM basis - the Stock ROM is not that what I would call "well".
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MMWolverine:
Thanks! Actually not to difficult making a cwm recovery, but when it comes to custom roms I'm still a bit of a noobie. :D I am learning fast though, so maybe in the near future.

Oh btw, here's the recovery guide in german language: http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/medio...on_lifetab_p9514_13_1_2013_a.html#post2385512
[Miscellaneous Android Development] d3rm1k:
Yes, I know. Because of that German post I searched here, hoping that there already might be a Custom ROM.

But I only have a LogIn here and not the muse to sign up at handy-faq.de, yet ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jopeke:
Many thanks for this cwm, the installation worked like a charm.

One small remark, to enter cwm you have to hold the Volume Up (Plus) and Power button. You could perhaps change this in your guide (it is correctly in the guide in german language)

I have translated your guide to Dutch on my blog, I'll hope it's no prob:

http://blog.johanvanbogaert.be/2013/02/clockworkmod-voor-de-medion-lifetab.html

Rgrds Johan
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MMWolverine:
Thanks for notifying me about the mistake, I already corrected it.

I updated the cwm to newest 6.0.2.8 and will change the adb drivers part of the guide, as some users have difficulties understanding it.

I see no problem that you translated my guide, after all it's from different sources and made to be used for free.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jopeke:
Hi MMWolverine, already flashed v6.0.2.8, only took a minute.

I've updated my own blog as well.

Instead of using adb it is much easier to use a terminal emulator (like ConnectBot) on Android todo the update.

To install cwm someone only needs his tablet, ConnectBot and ES File Explorer. No PC, adb, usb connection necessary for flashing cwm.

If someone has rooted his lifetab, your guide is more then easy to understand to do this installation.

But if you don't wan't to use a PC for flashing the following is possible: From the lifetab download the zip, extract with ES File Explorer,Flash with ConnectBot (only the 3 last commands from your guide are necessary: su,mount..., dd....)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MMWolverine:
Actually, I did plan to do both guides. But I wasn't sure how many people would agree to install the terminal. Will probably do this, as you recommend.

I was also hoping, that the recovery would be uploaded to Rom manager app. Says on recovery maker website, that you need to be the device owner. Medion still isn't added to device list.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jopeke:
I have checked ROM Manager before doing the installation manually, its a pitty its not jet implemented in ROM Manager. But the installation is quit straight forward.

If someone is ever making a custom ROM for the LifeTab P9514, please implement USB OTG, because thats an option I'm waiting for.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jopeke:
Great that you added the instructions todo the installation through a terminal emulator on Android. Just one remark, the adb shell command can be removed while using a terminal on Android.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Vampire0:
What happens if you try to flash a zip with CWM? Why doesn't it work and what would break?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MMWolverine:
You need a properly written updater-script. If a zip isn't compatible, you will only get an error, but nothing will be changed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] prometeo1973:
Do you know if the CM10 based ROM that works on the P9516 would work on the P9514 too?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MMWolverine:
The answer is no. CM roms are hardware based and if you would flash p9516 rom on p9514 it wouldn't even boot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wfmagic:

Hi together!

I have a problem! I want to get back to unrooted original stock rom in lifetab p9514.

Somehow, dont ask me how, I lost the backed up version.

Is there a possibility to download such rom - I couldnt find anything!

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

you can get official rom by typing in your MSN number (written on the back of your tablet): http://www.medion.com/de/service/download/software.php

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] qzmpal:
Hi experts,

Here on xda-developers, I read, that if we get the Samsung Galaxy S3, with the Exynos Processors, the APNs can be modified and can be used as a World Phone.

That means, if we are in the US we can use Verizon 4G LTE Network.

If we go to Europe, we can use the local SIM Card and use the local 4G LTE even from a GSM or a CDMA provider.

Here are my questions.

1. Is this possible? Is the information true?

Here is the link for that.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/port-us-galaxy-s-iii-roms-to-other-variants/

If this is possible, can the same be applied to the Snap Dragon Processors?

Swapping the Samsung Galaxy S3 between different carriers, Is this possible?

From Verizon to use it with AT&T and vice versa?

2. There is also a thread which shows that, the Galaxy S3 can now be booted from a SD Card.

Here is the link for that.

http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...ader-released-for-galaxy-s-iii-galaxy-camera/

If that is possible, can the Bricked G3 Phones from Verizon or AT&T can be reused?

Thanks a lot for the answers and sharing of Your wisdom on this.

Peace,

A J.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] elzapato:
I'm travelling to Canada next week and am buying a $10 micro SIM card and a $20 prepaid plan from Rogers Wireless.

One of the Verizon Global support team people I spoke to on the phone said that the S3 will work the way you want as long as it has the latest stock JB OTA update. (That's the 4.1.1 / VRBLK3 update for anyone reading this in the future). Most importantly, the patch unlocks the phone to use on foreign carriers, so I was told I was already good to go without any added steps on Verizon's part or mine.

Of course, I'm running a rooted version of VRBLK3. Don't know if that affects global capability, but I'll let you know if this works for me or not in British Columbia.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mansquared:
i dont know if you will get full capabilities in terms of data signal but i know i can get call the text to work. depends on what frequencies the phone has or allows you to have.

look here for some related info.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] elzapato:
Reporting back - I was able to get voice service in Canada with a Rogers Wireless SIM, but no data. The pohne couldn't register an APN - couldn't manually enter any information into it either.

So there you go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ke0kie:
how is the 4g service in Canada?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
You needed to download "APN Manager Pro" to edit your APN's as per the Global roaming thread in the dev section. You would have had data to some extent had you done this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
Is it just me? After rooting and cwming my phone my system default time is always in the 1970's so it messes up the cwm back ups and things. If you have your phone on airplane mode and reboot it won't grab the time from the network so that how you can check. I only noticed it when I brought in cwm. I've tried different versions of cwm never gotten it fixed though. Oh I'm always aosp, Rom/kernel makes no difference

Can anybody confirm this? Or share any fixes?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cehf:
yes, this is known. either initiate backups though rom manager or use twrp.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
So it's definitely cwm then...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] themadproducer:
Hey look, for a while now I have been using the script and app here.

It's called oNandroid.

- perform backups without rebooting.

- manage stored backups and the dates are correct.

- If you ever need to restore, reboot to CWM.

- It's super convenient and works perfect for me.

Problem solved...and a bag of chips!

(lots of options. Can be used with the GUI or with any script app)

Enjoy
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hungmung:
I read something koush posted in Google+ a while back. It has to do with the way the chip set is programmed it doesn't communicate the way it's supposed to to update the date stored on the chip. I guess if you turn on airplane mode and then reboot it will default to the same date. If you pay attention every time you boot the phone it polls the server for date and time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baconatorXVI:
I figured it was something funky more or less hardware related. Are you saying there's not much hope it can be easily updated?

I can totally live with it, it's really not a big deal.

Besides sometimes it's fun to send people text messages with a 1970's date stamped on it. :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goliath2342:
Hi,

I experience a reproducable Bug on CM10.1 and want to know if this is connected to my phone or a general bug others experience as well. I'll try to describe it as detailled as possible and I'm keen to find out if some of you have the same problem.

So here we go.

Used Software / Hardware

CM10.1 nightlies since end of Nov 2011 up to now (01/13/2012).

gapps as of (12/12/2012)

SGS II (I9100)

Symptoms

When recording video, at the end (when I touch the stop button) the screen freezes and doesn't react on input anymore. The recorded file is corrupt. It shows up in Gallery as a grey video and can't be played by MXPlayer or gallery itself.

Sometimes I get the "Gallery not responding", when I chose to quit gallyery, I can get back to the home screen and continue using the phone. However, another try to record a video gives me a "Can't connect to Camera" error message. (note that all english screen text are translated by me since I use german localisation)

When I choose to wait for gallery, the freeze gets worse and as the screen went to standby I couldn't get it back to show anything. (The lower touch keys however where still lid when I touched them).

All the helps now is a reset (holding down power button).

Reproducability

The problem is not reproducable everytime when taking a video. However, I think I can reproduce it in 10 Minutes when trying several shots. Even after a fresh reboot. I have the feeling it fails more on longer video recordings (+1:30min).

What I've tried to get rid of it (without success)

Change resolution from 1080p to 720p or 480p

delete data/cache of gallery app through app settings

switch Geotagging on / off

switch power shutter on/off

wipe data/factory reset (from CWM Recovery (v6.0.2.7)

wipe Dalvik cache (from CWM Recovery)

fix permissions (from CWM Recovery)

Nothing helped, so far.

Logs

I was able to reprocude it with adb logcat running on my desktop. I attached the logs. I'm not sure about traces.txt, though. It might contain younger entries and not those at the time of the original crash.

At camerafreeze.log:8809 there was a big pause in logging and online the light entries were logged. That was shortly after I touched the stop button.

Additionally I post a poll to get a feeling for how many of you CM10.1 nightly users the recording works fine.

Cheers,

David

PS: other than that, the CM10.1 is really great, especially when it comes to battery life compared to Samsungs stock ROMs!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goliath2342:
I'm adding

Deactivate RingDimmer

to that list. The Log showed that RingDimmer is recording Audio and crashing afterwards. Maybe there is a race condition or insufficient locking within the audio recording facilities causing this bug. However, since disabling (not even deinstalling) RingDimmer, I can not reproduce this bug so far. To crosscheck things I reactivated RingDimmer and set it to maximum accuracy (decreasing the pause between it's recordings to test environment noise). With that setting, the bug appeared almost immediately with short videos.

Maybe thats the sucker. I'll keep you updated.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dealey:
Hello! :)

So here's the deal: yesterday I decided to try out CM10.1 on my Nexus S. Being my first time rooting this phone all went well and I managed to flash the rom mostly without any problems. But my main concern is that after running root checker I got a message that my device isn't properly rooted... I did it just because I tried using ES file explorer in its root settings in order to delete a gallery2.apk file in system, which resulted in an error.

It's strange because I flashed the superuser zip before the rom and as far as I know CM10.1 comes with SU installed in it initially... Otherwise the ROM works perfect.

Do I need to flash everything from the beginning, doing another factory reset/wiping the cache? So far I've tried just to flash the superuser.zip from recovery (running 6.0.2.5 CWM recovery as far as I remember) and it didn't appear to root the device, although it said it installed successfully in the recovery. It may be something to do with the recovery or SU version? Any help is much appreciated! :o
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jhyrachy:
it's a problem about ES,

you should go to the settings and enable the root mode.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dealey:
Yeah I know, tried that and ES said this feature cannot run on your phone... And the app doesn't appear in the superuser app either. Nothing does in fact. xD
