And please spread the word on this.

Spiting Verizon is my new favorite hobby.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SGS3noob:
I have a very similar problem. I have a Samsung S3, not rooted, but unlocked from Verizon. I have been in Kandahar for a month or so. My SGS3 with a local provider will make and receive calls great when coverage is there. My problem is, I can only seem to text local here not back to the US, or get email and no Google Talk. I went to the shop where I got my card here, they told me that Verizon needed to unlock my phone. I know it is unlocked but I made the call home, Verizon told me what I already knew. I went back into the store, once again, next they said Verizon needed to unlock my APN? I called again, finally I got a response from Verizon saying that Samsung needs to release the patch so Verizon can unlock it. If anyone knows of such a APN patch I would greatly appreciate it. My lap top screen got cracked during a patrol so doing all of this and email is quite the B!tch! I have always had success with this forum and hope it will continue. Once I send my lap top back home to be warrantied, I will not have any way of getting the usual business done for at least a month. I'm trying to hold off on the lap top until I can get my phone fully functional. I do not have internet connection on my phone, just my computer, I guess that is the APN, that is still locked. I could do all of this if I had WiFi, but it is not allowed here by the company that provides internet. They do have WiFi in some areas, but it is always bogged down with everyone else trying to use it. Also, I am not too sure if I want to attempt to do a root, the internet service here is very slow. Thanks for your help. Please remember, I am atleast 8 1/2 hours ahead of you, so response time will be delayed.

alright im trying to build aosp for the p505. i have a ubuntu 10.04 build environment set up, adb working, and some knowledge with repo and git. though nothing to brag about.

my problem is trying to get the prop files for lgp505 gingerbead. i dont know what files to pull from stock, or how to make the make files, let alone how to put them into the device folder correctly. then theres the manifest.xml that i dont quite understand.

if anyone would give me some pointers or point me towards a guide that would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FitAmp:
With basic knowledge its gonna be hard to build aosp for your device. What ver of aosp? 2.3.7?

Remember it is required to have a x64 operating system for build aosp onward from froyo. Try compiling cm7 a couple times then move towards aosp. Cm7 will help a lot ! I know from experience ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savagephoenix:
it is 64bit. yes 2.3.7, yes i plan to try cm7 also...

still need to get prop files for my device in the gingerbread branch.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ferg8080:
I have to be honest and say I am a bit baffled when I look at the 'Storage' breakdown on my Note. So I have a few questions as to how RAM and flash memory work together.

From looking at some threads on the forums here I understand of the 16GB of flash memory on my Note :

2GB is reserved for the ROM

2GB is reserved for apps, actually my phone says I have 1.97GB

The rest (11.06 GB) as general storage e.g. music, movies, documents, etc.

Wondering what happened to the other c1MB as I have only accounted for 15GB?

So in settings when I go to 'Storage' it is broken down into 2 sections, 'Device Memory' and 'USB Storage' now I find this screen a little bit confusing. So, is the 'USB Storage' the 11.06GB flash memory I have for general storage and the 'Device Memory' the 2GB (1.97GB) of flash memory for storing apps I download?

I find it strange that my phone says I have 1.97GB device memory (flash memory) total for apps, and my apps seem to be taking up 1.47GB but I only have 228MB available. That doesn't add up?? Even more confusing is the fact that when I try to download a 40MB app I am told 'Can't download to default location'!!

Also do I ever see what the 1GB of RAM is up to on my phone or is this managed secretly by Android?

Thanks for anyone willing to set me straight :)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TingTingin:
Ram can't be accesed by u that's what your device uses to store processes so u can't save files or anything on it but anyways assuming your on gingerbread to "see what your ram is up to" go into system settings/applications/running services this what u see is runnning processes stored on your ram

Your note then has system internal and external memory

System memory is where your rom and system apps are installed (platystore youtube etc) you can't access this unless your rooted

Internal memory is the memory u get with your phone where u can store pics movies files etc and install apps I don't own this device but i doubt that it allocates a section of internal memory for apps

Then there's USB or external storage which is your memory card or flash drive (yes u can do that) u can store apps (which have app2sd support unless your rooted then u can move everything) movies files whatevever you want

you are a lil bit lucky than me.. my 1.97GB device memory is only used around 0.8GB but the available space is only around 200mb:crying:... and the droid started to give me storage space running out error...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ferg8080:
Yes I guessed that, but when I view RAM stats I get:

604MB used and 260MB free, yet I have 1GB RAM. Does anything add up memory wise on this phone?!

Again I guessed there was an area reserved for Rocket ROM and the associated system apps, I assume this is called the system partition. And I believe this is 2GB!?

I seem to have 'device memory' which is some kind of App partition of about 2GB but again its telling me I have over 200MB free but when I try to install another app I am told I have run out of space!?

I also seem to have USB storage which is referring to the remaining general storage partition which is about 11GB which I can't install apps to.

Thank you for trying to answer my query but I'm afraid I'm none the wiser. I though it would be easy to find a Wiki on the device which would explain how the 16GB is partitioned up and used like a memory map but I can't find anything. And the figures don't add up.

Isn't anyone else curious?

Okay smart ass let me point out a few things....

I am a complete novice to Unix and how their filesystems are organised but I am trying.

Pointing me to a thread of partition tables :eek: with what I presume are hex values that I've never seen before is a bit too low level and confusing.

I am not asking for a programmers spec table for the Note memory just a simple breakdown of partitions, GB/MB sizing and what the purpose of the partition is?

And if you don't know enough to do that then don't bother posting because your not being helpful and your post has as much value as a troll ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] friedje:
Actually my post was extremely helpful, and just saved you the bother to search for yourself. However 'mr. smart ass' assumed you had a bit of basic knowledge of the subject, which you just made clear isn't exactly the case.

So to try and tell it disney style :

Your phone has 1Gb of ram, used to run system and apps in realtime.

Android manages it and you can look at what is currently running and

if that makes you happy, even kill processes in taks manager.

Then your phone has flash memory, in general 16Gb, allthough 32Gb

devices exist.

Your Total 16Gb of memory actually has 12 partitions that each have

their proper reason of existence.

Number Size Name

1 21.0MB EFS: Holds device specific info like imei number

2 1311kB SBL1 : 1st bootloader, the devices uses this to boot

3 1311kB SBL2 : 2nd bootloader, see above

4 8389kB PARAM : Forgot what they put inside, guess you will have to read up.

5 8389kB KERNEL : Here goes your Hardware layer, drivers etc....

6 8389kB RECOVERY : here goes the little program to recover your phone when it's messed up

7 210MB CACHE : guess the name says it all

8 16.8MB MODEM : here goes the radio program for voice+data

9 893MB FACTORYFS : here go your android system files

10 2147MB DATAFS : here goes the data for your android system, like your apps

11 11.9GB fat32 UMS : your famous internal storage free to fill with disney movies

12 537MB HIDDEN : space reserved for samsung to put their bloatware

Hope the above is mashed enough to understand :)

Anybody find a decent guide or know a simple way to do this? My default method was to use chainfire3d and enable tegra spoofing but his app doesn't work so well with jelly bean. Is it a simple build.prop mod I'm missing? I know some games require messing with files that pertain just to that game. Just curious. Would love to show what that adreno 320 can really do, shame the extra graphics are locked down by Nvidia bull crap. Open to any advice or feedback. Thanks

thankx in advance.

really appriciate your valuable time.

i tried every possible modification in ramdisk but the result is same..

I think modifying sbin/recovery file in ramdisk will fix this problem. but when i open this file with notepad++ it shows garbage information.

Actually i made custome rom for this device and planning to post over net. if cwmr works for this device than everybody can easily flash this one.

again thank u for showing interest in my post.

custom rom builds for Penta 701C

Dear engineer_dhaval,

I have recently bought one of these at an ultralow price of Rs3299 (~US$ 56). It is a usable tablet but can be improved by removing

the many memory hungry applications it loads by default and doesn't allow killing them. As a result memory almost full most of the

time and it frequently crashes/freezes if many apps are used at the same time.

Total RAM 281MB Free RAM 60 MB Tablet Build no is 20120717

1) I see that you have posted a custom ROM for this tab but as a new user I am not allowed to post in that section of the forum.

Please inform if you have changed RAM allocation or freed up RAM in that ROM. I just want to get rid of skype, orkut, talk, gmail etc

which I don't use regularly.

2) Where do you get source codes to build a custom ROM and what is the procedure to build a custom ROM.

3) I have managed to root it with unlockroot. This tool does the job but a newer version of SuperSU has to be installed before everything

works correctly. SuperSU has to uninstalled by settings>apps>SuperSU>uninstall.

4) Penta has a new ROM version 20120918 for this tablet. Have they changed it for the better or worse. Is it worth downloading.

5) Have you managed to install some recovery to it so that tools like ROM Manager (Clockworkmod) can be used.

Thanks

VK Singh
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engineer_dhaval:
ok.. for this tab u must flash my custom rom (recomanded)...

I used many tweak to improve ram utilization..

yes facebook, orkut, skyup, youtube works fine with my rom.

and if u want to revert back to stock rom u can easily do..

stock rom link also provided in my thread.

as now cwm recovery is not possible for this tab..

u must use titenium backup (included in custom rom) for backup & restore..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VK Singh:
Hello engineer_dhaval,

1) Is there any way to take complete backup image of this tablet i.e. exact image of the internal 4gb memory chip which

will include all the system partitions & files. Someone has posted in the forum that new_201212xxAngryBirdsSpace driver

available on the Penta tech website uses a different method of firmware update by using MPTool.exe software. This tool

might be able to copy/restore the contents of internal 4GB memory. Please post the tool here if you have it as it is part of a

huge package (~475MB) and this driver is anyway incompatible with my older version tab.

2) I have tried ROM Toolbox, Titanium, Helium, ROM manager, TRUbackup, Online Nandroid etc and all fail to make a complete

"Nandroid" backup image as there is no compatible Recovery available. Some method of accessing the hardware while it is in

"debug mode" might do the trick.

3) Many users over the web have complained that this tab runs hot and has a very short battery life. Greenify app works surprising

good for saving power on this tablet. It allows hibernating most of the background apps.

4) In the version of ROM that you have posted, what is the amount of free RAM and Total RAM available on the tablet.

Best regards,

VK Singh

I think you spent a lot of time building this Rom and for that I want to show my respect.

But I was surprised when I saw the contents and that's why I post a reply even if it isn't one of the normal positive ones.

CM 9 based, older PA version (while on-the-fly density changes for apps ar already state of the art), many apps that aren't Rom related (so I only would download them from the market if I need to but never in a Rom), games (?), full-blown-GO-Launcher and this resulting in a big Rom.

Choosing 9 because of stability but at the same time merging 8 or 9 different android approaches doesn't seem plausible for me.

And many of your so called "Rom Advantages" are only a way of advertising but do not have real value without more explanation (quoting only these):

Ready to use, security aware and energy saving in a zero bug system is something everybody wants, but these are goals - not advantages.

Once again my respect for you work but I hope it is ok to write down these remarks.

also would inticka be updating base and frameworks to 4.2.1 not a eta question but just curious since I went through the whole topic again and again but could not understand how and what it has been exactly based upon

also whether a future release will have the possibility of flashing a newer kernel instead of staying on a cm kernel as I feel unsafe on that
