If you're going to whine about ads, then use Adblock Plus or something. It is someone's income. I am perfectly OK with XDA having ads considering the wealth of information that is consolidated onto a single site.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bluedevils2003:
Ya use ad block

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cnstarz:
how is it even possible for someone with over 2k posts to still not know about adblocking extensions for chrome and firefox? you're obviously not new to the internet and have spent quite some time on this forum alone. use your God-given brain.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DimonKP:
Use adblock with standart settings. It will allow few adds on site. Admins will have money (for site hosting), you`ll see less adds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tft:
this site used to be ad free.. then i guess someone got a bit greedy and decided to infest the site with ads. yes i know running a site cost money but there are many ways to bring income without having 5+ ads on a single page, as a result i use ad blocker when i visit here.. i know from experience as i run my own site since 2001.

they could at least maybe do a premium membership where members and developers (some who even use this site to "advertise" their apps) can donated a few dollar and have no ads. maybe a recurring membership every 3-6 months with added features.

Trying to limit freedom of speech? I think that constitutes a ban more than exercising the right

Complaining about free tech support. Way to exercise that free speech. Typical liberal thinking, apply the rules to yourself the way you see it benefits you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] archer100:
I found those long signatures more annoying than ads here. I'm used to the layout of the page, and my eyes just ignore those places for ads. But, as I am browsing the posts, those long signatures take a lot of scrolling.

I do use the app, which does not show the sigs, and jumps to the last unread (like it very much). But I'm on my computer all day.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jtkemp101010:
How the hell could you complain about ads on a *FREE* forum?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Uh, this is a privately owned forum. Free speech doesn't apply here, they can tell make you shut up about anything they want. Theres no constitutional protections in privately held venues, on the internet or in real life. The first amendment only guarantees that the government can't stifle your speech.

I like to break stuff! :D
[Nexus 7 General] kba712:
Hey everyone, I am going to be buying a nexus 7. I am torn between the 3g version and the Wifi only version. Is the development better for wifi than 3g or is it the same for both?

Also the battery life, how do they compare?

Thank you very much for your for your input
[Nexus 7 General] 95Z28:
Well you can look in the applicable development sections and see what's available. As for battery I would assume WiFi only would yield better results unless you have WiFi on while idle, then probably not much difference.

As for which is better, depends on what you need it for. WiFi works for me as I just tether to my phone. While it would be nice to have 3g built in, I couldn't justify the added cost plus additional data plan every month.
[Nexus 7 General] kba712:
Thanks for the reply 95z28. I was looking at the development section and I only saw like 20 posts in total. But it seems some roms in the other sections do support tilapia as well.

I will be using the tablet mainly for commute so 3g might be worth the 50 dollars. We will see. Thanks again for your input.
[Nexus 7 General] Leonhan:
Depends on your usage. If you want internet on the go, go for 3g. But if you want to customize to your heart's content, go for wifi version since most roms are made for them.
[Nexus 7 General] dtaunk:
I was also on the same boat before finally going in for a wifi one. The extra money for 3g version is not justified and is on higher side. Instead I saved some money and bought a basic mobile which can tether well. I bought xperia u and it tethers fantastically. I get good download speed. Even if u traveling you can carry both mobile and nexus 7 WiFi together to serve your purpose. I also feel today tablet with 3g version is not successful as most of have at least one smartphone which tethers. I again insist go for a WiFi only preferably 32 gig one.

---------- Post added at 01:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

Also 3g version does not have tethering capability out of the box.
[Nexus 7 General] kba712:
Thanks for the input guys. I do have a galaxy nexus but tethering from it would probably drain the battery. The other option I can do is just get a 3g modem and use that for the internet. Too many options :) We will see. Thanks again for the help
[Nexus 7 General] _Variable:
You should get a 3g tab instead, the battery is fine.

Better to have the 3G version and not need than to need it and not have it later.
[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
If you already have a gsm phone with a micro sim, get the 3g nexus since you can use your phone sim in it when your phone dies.

[Nexus 7 General] bolanrox:
If you are going to use it only at home or at places where you can grab wifi - I would go with the WiFi only.
[Nexus 7 General] Censura_Umbra:
I was pretty sure it was micro....either way, there are adapters
[Nexus 7 General] Sib64:
It's my first tablet with 3G it's not disappointing

I had a TF101 (sold) and now I have a tf300t and a N7 3G Tilapia.

I use on the go, and it's really practical. The size is very good for use it with 3G

And about the development, look

my index

and you will see that you have 14 custom roms for the moment, and it's good.

So if you need a 3G connection (work or for the pleasure to be connect everywhere) take it with closed eyes.

If you need just at home, the wifi is good enough.

And it's a micro sim for the 3G version.

I hope this has helped you to your decision

[Nexus 7 General] kba712:
Thank you everyone for your input. It was a tough choice but I finally went with the 32gb wifi only version because I got it for $100 cheaper than the 3g version. I didn't want to folk out extra for another data plan as data is expensive here in Australia.

Again thanks for the help
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerpTurtle:
Well I finally managed to destroy my Phones wifi....I was trying to get hack the phone with Terminal Emulator to modify the wpa_supplicant to get it to recognize ad hoc networks and booom.

I must admit I did not know what I was doing. For everything I have read elsewhere I beleive the only solution now is to install a new rom....

The problem is this is the first time I would do it.... I have read guides on other threads but I am not still very sure how to do it or even if it would solve it.

So when I turn the wifi on, besides having lost all of my stored wifi profiles, it doesnt scan, and turns off automatically. Sometimes I even get a wifi error.

I have an Xperia Ray, rooted, I restored to factory settings but that didnt help....I rolled back to a backup I had with titanium backup and everything came back the way it was except the wifi.....wifi hotspoting works by the way.

If someone would please be so gentle to tell me what way to go, that would be a charm; I am half decent with Androids, and above Standard with Windows...

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -star-:
AW: [Q] I destroyed my phone's wifi

You could try to restore the wpa file. Extract it from a stock or custom rom and push it to your device, it should restore the default settings. Maybe it's cached somewhere.

I read through some articles in converting .dex to .jar.

I successfully converted .dex to .class. But some files cannot be read, showing message "// INTERNAL ERROR //"

what should I do then?

Link below is the converted .class summary

Thank you everyone

PS2 Here is the original an.policy.jar

[Motorola Droid RAZR] yoyurik:
dex2jar is easy way to read the code. but you really should not depend on it.

if you want to make changes to apk - modify .smali files. because noone can guarantee that app will work or even compile after dex -> jar -> dex.

but it will defenetly work after dex -> smali -> dex.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] h0324879:
First of all, thank you for relying my question!

I know I can use a baksmali to convert .dex to .smali. But when I open the .smali, I really don't know the what is the line talking about:crying:

Does .smali just the same way as .java?

PS I am editing the android.policy.jar. Is it the same as what you are talking about?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yoyurik:
You should really learn how android and dex/smali are working.

If you convert .dex to .java sources - it will be a big challenge to compile back .java to .dex. Most of time it will be impossible.

***EDIT***

USB Host DOES work with Flash Drives. For information see post 3: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=37201971#post37201971

This is now my main focus. So I figure why not everyone post up what devices they got to work with the Kindle Fire 2 and/or what methods it took for you to do so.

3x Different Flash Drives: Not Working However one of their LED's Illuminate

USB Keyboard: Not Working

Logitech M570 Wireless Trackball: Working

I also tried a non powered hub, it didn't work. The Green LED Illuminated but nothing more. When connected to my Galaxy S 3 I can have multiple devices attached at a time. I tore the Hub down and found that it has a blank slot for power. I wired soldered in a 0.75a Samsung Wired Charger to it. It Illuminated the LED, As well as it illuminated the Power LED in Orange on the Kindle but no devices worked on the Hub. I tested the power output of the USB Ports and it was a little more than 5v per port.

Device: Kindle Fire 2

Rooted and TWRP'ed with the Nightly of CM10.1 1-20-2013

Will keep trying. As stated in another thread, that its simply power. After testing these things out, I don't think its power related. Either the kindle just doesn't have the "Drivers" if thats what you'd call it, or it simply can not run anything but a mouse. I hope that is not the case. It will ruin all appeal in my eyes.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] plinders:
If you're rooted, have you tried installing StickMount?

Might work for the flash drives.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] tjmack3rd:
I have 3 different thumb drives.

Sony 4GB = does not work

SanDisk cruzer slide 16GB = does not work

SanDisk cruzer 8GB = Works

The regular cruzer is probably 5+ years old. I have access to others and will update my post when I get them.

I'm on PowerPoint45 cm 10.1 using chainfires stickmount.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] nFiniti:
Nice. The regular flash prob requires less power. I noticed one of mine which was larger almost worked. But would shut off prob to not enough power. But a newer one wouldn't light up at all.

Plans for today: To re build that USB Hub I was messing with last night. I desoldered the USB cable off of it to solder in a Micro USB, But I don't remember if it worked. I then tried to turn it into an OTG direct 4port hub but nothing happened. So I'm sure I screwed something up. But the initial results should be a powered, 4port Micro USB OTG Hub. I just hope I have enough juice to make it work for not only charging the Kindle but powering the devices on the hub. I have a Galaxy Tab Official 2.0a car charger I can try out. I want to be able to have at the least, a 32gb Flash Drive and a 360 Gaming Controller.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] nFiniti:
Well I got some done today. I found an old phone charger that was 1a. I finally just used my OTG Cable and soldered it in place of the std usb connector on a cheap USB Hub. I'm sure everyone has the same hub I'm using, I have two, one says Microsoft on it, the other says AMD but they are super cheap and are given out everywhere you go:

Its a non powered USB hub, however when opened up there is a bare spot for a power connector. Middle pin is 5v + and the two around it are common Ground -.

Don't be strayed by my crap solder work. I'm using a cheap harbor freight soldering iron and the new charger has very thick wire so it didn't really fit in the small holes. The ground is just directly connected to everything else thats ground related so I grounded it there. That way the two wires aren't soo close together.

I have now successfully tested 3 flash drives, NTFS, Fat32 and some strange Fat32 drive plus my Trackball. As well as this I have successfully charged my Galaxy SIII off of the hub. I wouldn't exactly recommend this unless your running like a legit 2a charger. I only did it to test out power requirements. I think either my cable is damaged too or I'm at the limit of power the small 1a can handle because every once in a while the hub shuts off. I think its just cable related.

Here is everything connected as you can see.

However the tablet it self is not charging. At least the icon on the notification bar doesn't say so. I have tested the voltage here and its 5v. But IDK? Maybe the Kindle wont allow it? BUT, with all my testing, the battery has stayed at 88%. I'm gonna try to kill it some more. Maybe with some transferring files between drives.

lol As I'm typing this, I sit down for a second with the tablet on the carpet floor and just stare at it. I've noticed that some reason the led turns off and on at random times. But I've never seen it say its charging. Well the screen just dimmed but didn't shut off so I get up to check real fast and when I turn it on, it says 88% - Charging! But then instantly goes back to 88% - Not Charging when the screen lights up. And there it goes again (Please bare with me as I'm doing this all this very second.) Looks like it just needs some more amperage. 1a is not enough to power everything and charge the device.

I was worried that the kindle wasn't going to support Charging OTG. Well I happen to have a spare 2a Galaxy Tablet charger and no Galaxy Tab.... :) I'll try it out and get back to you guys!
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] iytrix:
This looks good! If you want, once you are done with the testing, I can try and write up a guide with your words on how to do it then let you post that. I did the same for some of the stickied threads. It looks like you're almost done and I think this would be a really good info thread once compiled nicely. Stuff like how to do OTG, what works, what needs a powered HUB, stuff like that. I personally will probably never use OTG, but I see the value and I like what it can be used for.

Best of luck!
