[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syco123:
Trying to get DSR controller working on my nook. Any help would be great, would love to get this working. I teach photography, and a bigger screen in the field without lugging a laptop around, would be really useful. I've read lots and tried lots, but now need some help.

Fresh install of CM 7.2 on Nook color to emmc. Nook tweaks, USB host controller, remote release by Chainfire, and a host cable adapter. Camera is Canon 5Dii. I also have a couple of 40Ds if they're more likely to work.

I tried a USB mouse on the Nook and can see that in the busybox output. The USB mouse works fine. When I disconnect the mouse and attach the camera, I get nothing in busybox, well, I don't see any reference to Canon. I've enabled USB host in Nook tweaks, wake up camera, connect the USB, but nothing.

I found out how to mod the memory for Android 2.3 (not required on other Android versions) so here's the instructions if others google through.

Download "Root Browser Lite" (free)

navigate to root folder (highest level up the tree)

open the /system folder

long press on file "build.prop"

select "Permissions"

under the "write" column, check the box "others"

hit back to return to the system folder file list.

tap the file build.prop and open with a file editor.

find dalvik.vm.heapsize

change the value to your desired value. dslrcontroller.com FAQs recommends 128mb or 196mb

save the file

reboot

I see the memory value has changed when I try to launch remote release, however it still doesn't work for me.

Tried multiple times.

Still nothing in busybox dmesg that I can see, output avail here

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
I'd like to know how read buffer of sdcard works, does it work per partition, i mean, when we have 2 partition in sd card, (sd-ext and sdcard), we could set it differently, OR it works per disk ? (We could set once for both partition)

Thx in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
im not sure but I think it is per disk, not different on partitions.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] 1N4148:
Right. And if you increase the read ahead buffer for the internal flash devices, too, it will give you another speed boost :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
are u sure ?

btw is that possible to set read ahead buffer of internal memory ? how ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] hermandroid:
If I set it as high as possible, does this have a negative effect on sd card like die faster?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] 1N4148:
echo "512" >/sys/block/stl1[2-4]/queue/read_ahead_kb :)

stl12 -> /system

stl13 -> /data

stl14 -> /cache

Default is 4kb. I set mine to 512kb which is enough.

---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

No, cause it's for reads only. Highest possible value isn't the best. Try to find your sweet spot.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
How to check the current value btw ?

And there is different target (stl12-14), it means the read ahead buffer works per partition right ?

Edit: i explore using root explorer and changed the value via text editor.

My default value is not 4 btw, its 256 :D

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markmorto:
Hi and thanks upfront for your feedback!

I've been dabbling with all the goodness on this forum and couldn't be happier with my Epic 4G. Currently running the latest CM10.1, and just last week took the plunge and upgraded to the EL30 modem, which has been a big improvement over the stock FC09 one. I can talk in my kitchen now without having to go outside!

I've read a lot of posts concerning the NS4G modem, and everything seems to be positive. So, here are my questions:

Is it worth upgrading to?

How's the battery life?

Are there any real issues, other than the documented stuff in the dev forums?

Thanks again upfront for any and all replies.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vwags:
I have been happy with it because I noticed my time without service dropped significantly which I thought was a good test for me.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GalaxyBlaze7438:
I switch back and forth a few times and I can say battery life really isn't different between the two but my signal and data speeds are much better then the epic modem
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markmorto:
Okay, so I took the plunge. I flashed the latest patch zip for CM10.1, and when I booted - NO SERVICE! For some reason, the flash didn't work right, so I Odined the KL2 modem bin, reinstalled the patch, and it's working.

So far, so good - I like the extra goodies from the patch, including the new kernel, and especially the Touch (TWM) recovery. It's pretty slick. Can't wait to see how much better it works around San Diego tomorrow.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffreyjicha:
Don't forget PRL and Profile updating ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markmorto:
That was the best part! Before I had to boot and run the original ROM from Sprint off the SD card to update the PRL - now, it's a menu option, like a "real" (well, stock, anyways) phone!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DynamicN:
Where is updating PRL a menu option? I can't seem to find it, I'm on CM10.1 20130101 experimental with LF2 modem and AIO patch Nitest 12-31 prekernal
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markmorto:
System settings > About phone > Sprint system updates
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DynamicN:
We must be on different builds or kernels because my options under Settings > About phone are Status, CyanogenMod updates, CyanogenMod statistics, View changelog, Legal information, Model number, Android version, Baseband version, Kernel version, CPU, Memory, CyanogenMod version, Build date, and Build number. Thank you for your quick response.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
That option isn't on cm roms... to update prl from the system menu you have to be on a tw rom...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffreyjicha:
Normally, running just CM, no modified kernels or a different modem, this is correct. However, the option should be there with the patch to use the ns4g modem.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Been a while since I ran cm anything with the nexus modem, thanks for the correction! :thumbup:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboxfanj:
That depends. The sprint nexus devices have an option in their overlay to have sprint prl and profile updates in. I simply copied that and built. Most cm devices don't have it in but since the nexus obviously has stock aosp it came with that function in the source so it is there. Could probably do that on standard modem too if someone added it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markmorto:
I'm on CM10.1, but am using the NS4G modem, which requires the nitest kernel and patch found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1842037. That must be where the options came from. It also added TWRP recovery, and I'm very happy with it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DynamicN:
Thank you Jeffrey, Flast, Xbox, and Mark for the responses. So if I understand correctly I should have the option to update PRL because of the NS4G patch but for some reason I don't. Is it maybe because Mark is on the KL2 modem and I'm on the LF2 modem? I remember reading somewhere that the KL2 modem is from an unofficial leak and the LF2 is from OTA. If someone could shed a little more light on this I'd greatly appreciate it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboxfanj:
Yeah. I added that in the settings.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DynamicN:
I think I may have found the problem. I flashed this patch from Nashdogg with the 12-31 Nitest kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1842037&page=140 which isn't your patch from the OP. I'm still not sure why Mark has the option to update PRL under settings though unless it was put in the newer patch made by Nashdogg and that's what he flashed.

Edit: Posted the wrong URL and had to update, my apologies
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboxfanj:
Some of Nash's newer updates don't have PRL and Profile updating in. I think he said he was going to add it, but I will check with him. I haven't made the patches for awhile, since I don't have the phone anymore.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DynamicN:
It all makes sense now, thank you so much for all your help Xbox. Definitely hitting the thanks button!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboxfanj:
No problem. Always happy to help :)

So after I tried to unlock my oem, the tablet went into a boot loop. Now I manage to get it out by running in recovery mode and wiping data but once I did that does that mean I still have my oem unlocked or do I have to unlock it all over again?
[Nexus 10 General] Strike9172:
It will remain unlocked.
[Nexus 10 General] stev067:
Are you using the Nexus 10 toolkit? I'd suggest re-locking and unlocking the bootloader again, and then follow the instructions listed. Hope that helps...
[Nexus 10 General] espionage724:
After a bootloader unlock, you have to Factory Reset as a security measure. The Nexus 7 automatically did this, but the Nexus 10 does not (but still needs the reset regardless). If you don't reset, you'll experience the bootloops you've mentioned.

The bootloader will remain unlocked unless you manually re-lock it again (you can factory reset, install custom ROM after ROM, and etc. and still be unlocked).

How to flash a new firmware to your phone with ODIN

Latest available Gingerbread Europe firmware:

I8160XXLL2 (26 December 2012) [Android 2.3.6]

Latest available Jelly Bean Europe firmware:

I8160XXMG2 (5 July 2013) [Android 4.1.2]

Instructions (Gingerbread)

If you don't have Samsung Kies installed in your computer, download and install Samsung USB Drivers. Download Odin 3.07 (latest), too.

Go to: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/, type "I8160" in the search and download the firmware you want. Alternatively you can make/download a pre-rooted firmware from the second post if you want.

Extract the firmware and you will get something like I8160XXLL2_I8160OXXLL2_HOME.tar.md5

Make sure that you have at least 15% battery. Put your phone in Odin Mode. (Turn off your phone, and then press: volume down + home + power button simultaneously for 3-4 seconds)

Open Odin 3.07, connect your phone and you will see an ID:COM box filled with blue at the top-left corner. (1st image)

Tick 'PDA' click it to select the I8160*****_I8160******_HOME.tar.md5 file you extracted in step 3.

Take a deep breath. Press 'Start'. The flashing process will take about 6 minutes.

When you see a green box with 'PASS' at the top-left corner, then you can disconnect the phone's cable. (2nd image)

Enjoy.

Instructions (Jelly Bean)

If you don't have Samsung Kies installed in your computer, download and install Samsung USB Drivers. Download Odin 3.07 (latest), too.

Go here to download XXMB2 JB leak (outdated) or here to download XXMB4 JB leak (outdated). You can find ME7/MF1 on Ace 2 General Forum.

Extract the firmware and you will see a few files. CODE_I8160XXMF1.tar, CSC_OXA_I8160OXAMF1.tar and GT-I8160_EUR_XX_4G.pit will be used in ODIN.

Make sure that you have at least 15% battery. Put your phone in Odin Mode. (Turn off your phone, and then press: volume down + home + power button simultaneously for 3-4 seconds)

Open Odin 3.07, connect your phone and you will see an ID:COM box filled with blue at the top-left corner. (1st image)

(Skip this step if you are already on JB) If you are on a GB firmware, click 'PIT' and select GT-I8160_EUR_XX_4G.pit. Re-partition box should be checked in options. Warning!!! Don't tick repartition if you are already on MB2/MB4/MC8 and you want to go to a newer firmware!

Click 'PDA' and select CODE_I8160XXMF1.tar & 'CSC' and select CSC_OXA_I8160OXAMF1.tar.

Take a deep breath. Press 'Start'. The flashing process will take about 8 minutes.

When you see a green box with 'PASS' at the top-left corner, then you can disconnect the phone's cable. (2nd image)

Enjoy.

Notes:

Odin: Its the latest available version, slightly modified by me, so all other options & file download options except 'PDA' are deactivated for safety.

Firmware: Always update to the latest available so you have the more recent bugfixes, stability fixes and new features.

Upgrading with Odin, won't wipe your data & won't increase the flash counter.

I take no resposibility if your phone explodes or sth ;)

Official ROOTED firmwares for the SGA2 (Multi-CSC)

PRE-ROOTED STOCK FIRMWARES

The following firmwares are completely stock, original firmwares, with only the addition of the 2 needed files, su binary and Superuser.apk.

(Explanation: The first one (su) is the 'root' itself, while the second is the app that allows or denies superuser permissions to other processes).

This does not have CWM recovery, or any modifications. You can add those later yourself, if you wish. This is just the Samsung rom, rooted. Nothing more.

If you have OXX csc in your firmware (most of central-eastern Europe does; you can check by typing *#1234# and looking at the CSC - I8160OXXxxx), feel free to flash it on top with Odin, it will not wipe your data.

You don't have to install stock firmware first and then this. You should install this directly. Its stock firmware + SuperSU :)

This does NOT trigger the flash counter!

- Unroot

If for some reason you don't want to be root anymore, (e.g. returning your phone for service or selling it), just go into the SuperSU app, go to settings, and press Full Unroot. That's it, no more root.

(Goes without saying: you should first remove any mods you did while rooted).

- Download

I8160XXLL2 (Android 2.3.6, OXX multi-csc, PDA: I8160XXLL2, CSC: I8160OXXLL2, SuperSU 1.0.2 included)

Note: Individual csc contained in these OXX multicsc:

Flash Custom Kernel - Install CWM/TWRP Recovery - Reset Flash Counter

Flash Custom Kernel - Install CWM/TWRP Recovery

If you want to flash a custom kernel so you have CWM/TWRP recovery and then flash a rom, here is a simple, mini guide how to do it (after flashing the pre-rooted rom from the 2nd post, without increasing the flash counter.

Download a custom kernel from here (eX Kernel) or here (Antsm's kernel). If you want a stock kernel with CWM and init.d support only go for the 2nd one.

If it is a .tar file, extract it, if it has .tar.md5 extension, remove the .md5 first and then extract it until you get "kernel.bin.md5" or "kernel.bin" file.

Copy the "kernel.bin.md5" file loose to your

internal

sdcard (phone's internal memory).

Open Google Play and download Android Terminal Emulator.

Open it and type:

su (grant Superuser permissions)
dd if=/sdcard/[B]kernel.bin[/B].md5 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15
reboot

Note: hit enter after each line

Done!

Reset Flash Counter - Bring back your Warranty

If for any reason you have flashed/rooted the phone with odin and you have a flash counter > 0, antsm did find a solution for you.

Just for the info:

To manually reset "CUSTOM FLASH COUNTER", open the Terminal and type:

su
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=1 count=1 seek=3145732

Warning: The manually way is not recommended! If you do a typo, you can brick your phone!! Only for experienced users.

Head over to the original thread to download and install i8160_reset_ANT.zip file from the CWM/TWRP Recovery to reset the custom flash counter and current binary automatically.

For JB, download Triangle Away!

Thanks for such clear instructions to flash without updating the count. Couple of questions, my SGA2 has firmware I8160XXLK7, is this one of yours compatible and is LL2 just newer than LK7 or do the numbers mean something else?

Also when I do *#1234# I do have 'CSC' so should I first flash PDA then CSC and do I select the same file for both? The version of Odin I downloaded doesn't allow to select CSC, is there another way to do it?

And why do we not flash 'PHONE' ?
