don't know but you might need to un freeze drm for i believe some type of files needs the service to be playable

why fix it if it ain't broken ?
[Motorola Atrix 2] brianmoyano:
My question was, if i stop this proccess, any other app or service will be stopped too?
[Motorola Atrix 2] nikufellow:
bro read again the first two words of my last reply - "don't know" :rolleyes: i did understand your question

why fix it if it ain't broken ?
[Motorola Atrix 2] brianmoyano:
Forget about my question. My english is bad, and i can't express myself right :P

I want to stop that process, because is killing my battery and i don't want to.

So, i freezed the process, and today i'll see if that process still bother me.
[Motorola Atrix 2] brianmoyano:
Edit:

Well @nikufellow, your answer didn't work. I freezed the DRM content. But, still drain the battery.

But, the good part, is that i desactivated the sync, and now, i think the battery is going great.

It was that all the time (i believe). The sync of the accounts.
[Motorola Atrix 2] brianmoyano:
Edit 2:

Mmm, nope. I was wrong. The 'mediaserver' process is in the top again, with 43% usage.
[Motorola Atrix 2] notajith:
Are you using Google Play Music? Maybe experiment with that. Maybe disable sync for just that, or remove the app and see if anything changes.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Rildiz:
If you have backups on the phone and they are in DUP change them to tar.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
WOW.... does no one read or search on google anymore?

All you need to do to get the mediaserver app to stop "searching" your phone all the time and draining the battery, and using CPU, is to put a file in all your media folders on the phone that is empty and called .nomedia

Notice that there is a dot (period) before the filename, this is important.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...yoHYAg&usg=AFQjCNH8MUU5ej6O3AUzwGoTRaIBP-3PKg

I am not trying to be a jerk here, but with all the posts in here, and it appears that no-one even thought to google this, just irks me a little bit.

To the OP, create an empty file in all the directories on your SDcard named .nomedia, and see if that helps to stop the 'mediaserver' from eating CPU and battery. This has been an issue since the 1.8 days of android with certain file types and has only gotten worse over the years.
[Motorola Atrix 2] brianmoyano:
I already did all the pseudo-solutions that appears on google. And no one works. That's why i made this thread.

But, the solution that works for me, was, formatting the sdcard. That was the solution that i don't wanted to do.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Rildiz:
You had the two solutions.

DRM freeze and tar instead of dup.

As a member stated it's the google play music (i believe). Cuz since I stopped using Google play music and switched to poweramp, i don't see it on ma battery consumption list!

Hey there community. I live in Guam. I have a verizon fascinate still running on eclair. I want to upgrade to froyo, but since we don't have verizon on Guam, I cant get the OTA update. So I'm just looking for the simplest, easiest way to upgrade phone without having to root it. Help me out!!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crawshayi:
You're going to have to root it if you want the latest upgrades (ICS, JB, etc). I don't know if Odining the 2.3 stock rom will work for you since it's for Verizon... why don't you want to root? Also, you may have to have someone help you to make certain roms work for different carriers

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbrad:
Well your gonna have too root it probably why don't you want to root it?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crawshayi:
You might not have to root it if you can find a stock rom for your specific carrier that you can push through Odin but you're probably better off just rooting and going on a GB or JB rom that's been tweaked for your carrier

[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinodmadhu6:
Greetings everyone

I have worked on 8051(atmel), processor.

in those processors we need to dump codes using a dumper.

The question is how do we need to dump the code in the raspberry pi.

My project is to control a small bulb or an LED just to switch it on and off,

and if i need to do that wirelessly how do i do that. i mean if i give an input using my mobile(android) i want that light to be switched off.

P.S : i am using WI-FI.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] io53:
Php?

Android app or web server -> php request -> MySQL -> c or python -> GPIO -> resistor -> transistor ?

That's one way to do it.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tirant:
No vinodmadhu6, the CPU on the Raspberry Pi is nothing like the Atmel AVR chips, you can program using a range of modern programming languages.

I'd say Python would be a good way to go, especially if AVR has been your main experience of programming up until now, as it is an easier language to learn
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stephj:
An 8 bit 8051 it definitely isn't! It is a full 32 bit ARM processor capable of running various flavours of Linux.

It is possible to pull the voltages high and low on the pins on the header of the main board, referred to as the GPIO.

I have seen posts about going from leaked 4.0. 4 to 2.3.5 or 6 but is it safe to use for someone who has never put any custom ROM on and OTA'ed all the way to 4.0.4 on from ATT?

My phone in my opinion is junk every since i updated it. Its sluggish now, and the battery life is horrible. It used to be a great phone... I have factory reset and still .. junk phone on 4.0.4.. So will the method to go from leaked 4.0.4 to 2.3.6 wrk for all stock user?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
If u did the official update, then u can't go back to GB. U should be on leak 1. So just try different ROMs in the dev section. Ics based ones are mostly stable ones. Try for urself and see which suits you the best :)

That's actually a nice pouch. I'm currently looking for a pouch type case that I can secure on my belt. And it looks like this would work real well. I like how it has the extra pockets to store other things. Although. How big is the inner part to hold the phone? I use the Seidio Active case on my phone, and I'm wondering if it will fit in there. And does the belt loop part allow for easy removal?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] DroidPH:

Somebody?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ctruong17:
I bought the Golla pouch from this website here:

http://www.case-parts.com/details/Z...-II-N7100-N7000-I717-etc-Black-MSP-N7100-03A/

You can just order 1, you don't have to buy 25. I've had the pouch for a while and I can say I'm quite pleased with it. I attached the carabiner onto a keychain belt hook like this: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/3-Long-Silve...452?hash=item2579313afc&_uhb=1#ht_1323wt_1139. It is really convenient when I don't have pockets to hold my phone.The material is kinda cheap but it's not really noticeable and it also fits just about any case (including the UAG case) in there. I like the slots in the front to hold bills or credit cards so it's very convenient. The only thing I don't like is that for some reason the inside material is red, and not a cool nice red but a very cheap read, so if you were to just leave the zipper open when you're using the phone it looks really weird. Zipping it open and closed can be a pain a lot of times too depending on how thick your case is.

I've recently bought this pouch: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/160907021704?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 which I will hook up with a carabiner and the above keychain belt hook. I'll let you know how that goes. The case is supposed to accommodate all cases so we'll see!

I think you mean "be bothered by" and I kinda am. I mean, I love android. I just wish it let you fine tune the volume.

For buttons, I have no problem with it, just like on ios it goes up a notch with each button, but with the pop up I believe you should be able to take it from there with the touchscreen. Surely I can't be alone in this viewpoint.

I mean, it should be very possible to do this, I'm just wondering why the rip hasn't Google addressed this yet? I mean, for gingerbread, this would be almost unnoticed. But we have jelly bean now, basically a brand new os. Maybe in key lime pie. =)

It bothers me that it's rare, if anything almost impossible to find a music player in the playstore with the holo theme being used, so i took the idea from Google's YouTube app and thought it would look nice if they'd make a music app with the same idea in mind, so i started doing a little work on the idea and since i know nothing about coding this is all i can provide...if it has been thought of before then i apologize, if not, then would be cool if a developer would take my idea and use it.

i wanna do a complete design of the entire internals but wanted opinions of you guys before i even go that far.
[Android Themes] TXI Kaze:
Purely personal taste, but the only thing I don't like is the blank CD icon above the album art. Other than that I like it. Keep up the good work!
[Android Themes] ForwardTwo:
Are you using Roboto as your font?

I also think that the search icon should be flat, and possibly implement that flat design choice into the album art/playing screen.

I also think there should be a couple more separation of elements using multiple color choices. Possibly use the holo colors.

It looks great though! :)

- Keep it simple

- Use one font size

- Don't make UI elements too small or too big

- Don't stretch images

- Don't use black on a dark grey background

Personally, I would like a player that uses the Google Now design language. An evolved Holo design in a sense.
