I Have here a set of sounds that is really the same sound that is renamed to Pen_att_noti2.ogg and Pen_det_noti2.ogg that mimic a sword being pulled from its sheath. I did not create it. I simply just downloaded the sound file and converted it to ogg then renamed it. I am bringing it to you lovely peeps here in hopes someone will get as much enjoyment out of it as I do. To use you must be rooted and must have a file manage to copy and paste it from your sd card to "system/media/audio/ui". I would recomend before doing so that you use your file manager and rename the exsisting sounds to Pen_att_noti2.ogg.bak and Pen_det_noti2.ogg.bak that way you will have them for later use. I have uploaded a zip file just download unzip place the files and enjoy.:laugh:

ALSO BEFORE DOING ANYTHING - make a nandroid backup if you havent already done so. You just never know if something may go wrong and have to restore. I know these are nothing more then simple sounds for anyones enjoyment but i feel as though I must reiterate the usual mantra....I am not responsible if you burn, destroy, or kill things with your device...flash and drink responsibly.....lawlz

oh and dont "stab" anyone with your new "sword pen"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rigum:
more lol

I will bring more to the table as I find more entertaining geek like sound effects lol.:laugh:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rigum:
Also I failed to mention that you will need to change the permissions once files are pasted into place
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rigum:
2 More sets of spen goodness

I have 2 more sets of sounds to throw up here. Again same method to apply them. This time they are not just repeated sounds for taking out and putting back in the spen. I hopes you all enjoy. FYI.....mantra above......If your sity shall burn i am not responsible lol.

Thanks all and more to come. also I will do my best to fill any requests. :laugh: Another thing once I figure out how to make all of this into one actual post that I can just add to as I get more sounds I will do so lol until then we gets the sloppyness. Quick break down. Download, Unzip, place files on sd card, use a file manager to paste them in "system/media/audio/ui" change permissions to RW-----R-----. Reboot if you must and Enjoy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] vel7wil:
Excellent work !!!!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rigum:
Thank you very much there will be more to come as my thread has stated I am off on friday and after the exausting running around I have to do, I intend on getting a few more up here....lol. Just trying to do the best that I can to do my part till im throwing up roms and such LOL a long ways to go for that though ;/ lol:p
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
I did a nandroid restore (from this same external SD card). Android (ICS 4.0.3 , Sense 3.6) doesn't recognize the card. A root explorer shows the internal SD card as a folder, but the external SD card as a file of unknown type. The same card is read correctly by AmonRa Recovery, and through a card reader on the 'puter. Has this happened to anyone before?
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
I tried backing it up, reformatting (FAT32), and recopying, no difference.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
Trying to mount it in AmonRa yields :

E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2

(File exists)
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Talking to yourself again?

You're not s-off are you? I've seen a thread about an issue with the cards when s-off. It might also have to do with old firmware mixed with a newer ROM. Have you updated to the latest RUU, the global one?

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/

Might not have anything to do with it but can't hurt to get updated. Remember, I'm not an expert, I just play one in your threads. And you seemed so lonely in here I had to say something.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
Hello? Hello? I thought I heard someone. Anyway, yeah, s-off, and not the latest RUU, but I thought it was the RUU the original ROM was based off. Could be mistaken. Next step IS to take that global RUU and try again, worst case, just start over from scratch.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Here, found this thread since you're s-off:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1615418
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
Hmmm... that looks..... risky. I'll try it when I get home tonight. Then if it fails I'll have time to go the new RUU route.

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
So, of course, right after I posted that, I gave it a try anyway.... no go. Card reads/writes fine from recovery, but the Android OS refuses to see it. Back to original plan, re-RUU it tonight.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Before you RUU again, try backing up the card, then reformatting it on your pc then pop it back in. I just remembered that I've read where that's fixed it for a few people.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
You need to update to ICS firmware or use the old firmware patch if you're still on GB firmware, otherwise that shouldn't be the problem. What version of hboot are you on? Also what version of AmonRa?
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
Tried that before.... no go.

HBoot = 2.25 , AmonRa=3.15 .... If I'm s-off, isn't the (ICS) firmware loaded with nandroid restore ?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Nandroid doesn't touch the firmware, you are running ICS firmware though.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
You can tell that .... how? Through my HBOOT version?

Strangest thing happened last night. During the day I attempted the External SD-card fix linked to by feralicious, to no apparent avail. Last night, though I, out of the blue, saw an android notification that I had a blank SD card ... Do you want to format? I said OK. Afterwards, I went to Settings -> storage, and saw the SD was still unavailable .... rebooted, no change. I shut down the phone and put the SD card in a card reader and saw from my PC there was a sole LOST.DIR folder on the card. I restored my SD backup from PC, thinking maybe my problem is miraculously solved. Upon phone reboot, though, no change. SD card is still unavailable, though it can be seen from recovery. Tonight is (global) RUU night unless any more suggestions?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Yes. Firmware refers to hboot and radios. Your hboot is the official ICS OTA.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
AmonRa nandroid gives the opportunity to backup and restore boot --- doesn't this mean I can effectively change firmware by restoring a different nandroid backup?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
No, boot is just the kernel. There's no way to back up and change the firmware on the phone with nandroid.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
OK, all good now. Had to re-RUU to the global, then reinstall latest version of ROM, then restore my apps and home screens, etc. Titanium backup was useful.

I still don't really understand how my card became unreadable, but c'est la vie (loose translation : $hit happens)

I have dumped the Motorola Defy XT update recently released by Republic Wireless for those who wish to work to make a rom for the device. I have no idea of the format, I know it's not a ZIP.

Update looks like ota zip package, because when i added .zip to file extenction & opened it with winrar, I see meta-inf folder & in right size is writen ,,signed by Moto-SignApk. When i oppened renamed file i get error that zip is corruped, so i don't how we'll able to use that file without moto-signing keys..
[Defy General] GeckoPower:
Archive: defyxt_rw_update_1_65K_1027.zip

(please check that you have transferred or created the zipfile in the

The way I got the ZIP was by connecting my phone to my computer's custom wifi network and captured all packets that came from the phone and to the phone through my computer using wireshark. I then found the end of the file download where wireshark has reassembled the "TCP Segments" and exported that to a file deleting the HTTP header which ends at \r\n\r\n. I did not delete the NULL byte after the new line. Looking at what segments were assembled individually, it is not including the TCP header information, it's just including the payload.

All of that being said... I do not know rather or not wireshark assembled it correctly. I am willing to provide my pcap file after I obscure things identifying my device.
[Defy General] hackergnome:
If you got an ota then it is stored in /cache and you can just copy it.

It will stay as long as /cache isn't wiped
[Defy General] GeckoPower:
I'll get it from my sister's phone and compare with the one I extracted.
[Defy General] GeckoPower:
I also plan on adding the original /System/ and the new update /System/ untouched by root.
[Defy General] GeckoPower:

As soon as my sister gets home, I'm going to update her phone... Get the update zip from her phone's cache as mentioned above, and then dump the system folder after the update.
[Defy General] hackergnome:
This is how you should do it

Download the update

Decline the update/reboot

Goto /cache and copy the zip to sd or PC

Then do the update.

See this is what I'm trying to do. Thanks for this btw!

Okay so im trying to rescue my phone from bootloop because of root. Im Not sure if this will work but hey im trying.

When i install this from recovery this is what i get

(Hey I did a little searching and research before posting this so dont yell at me.) Ok so I wanted to know if anyone knows how to get Ubuntu for android on this phone because with the smart docks hdmi and usb ports why wont you want to run a full desktop with the insane amount of power this phone has! I went to the ubuntu page and its for companies trying to sell it and I googled and nothing came up. Any help?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhxDroid86:
There will *EVENTUALLY be a true Linux OS "adaption" out for the GNII... but if your speaking more along the same terms as those that dream of running a true Windows (but Ubuntu) on an android cell phone then id say remoting in to your actual desktop is your best bet... with the experience of knowing what up to date CPU's require (and the limited resources even our beefy GN2 has to offer) that it will be awhile before android devices can harness a true windows/ubuntu/mac platform

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

Some people think, and not saying your one, "well if my Laptop is dualcore but my GNII is Quadcore than my phone can outperform my laptop"... this is entirely untrue and unless someone can truly harness the potential of GNIIs quadcore then its a mute point (edit - "moot" point).. eventually an adaptation will be availble through dualboot... but without proper internal configs, a theme would do you better (which is why I suggest remoting in)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnsongrantr:
I agree with everything you said... But this burns my eyes

The term is "moot point" as in pointless point.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Yoshi5005:
Hmm, I understand but I actually just recentlly found out about being able to run ubuntu through a vnc on the phone itself and the tutorial I say the guy used an evo 4g so I think its not too far...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jdiddy_ub:
correction..the term is "moo point" as in a cow's opinion..it doesnt matter

- Joey (from friends)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnsongrantr:
Lol.... but seriously there's like 4 people I know that say mute point...

I want to punch them very very hard every time I hear them say it.

Its one of those things people say to sound smart (sometimes rightfully so) but when you don't say it right... It just does the opposite of what you were maybe trying to do.

Or people who use ergo incorrectly... Same thing

What hboot do you have? Do you have the supersu app installed? If you open it, it should ask you to update if it needs it.

Please let us know if it's finally become a good game, I mean, it was kind of AWFUL before. :P
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
lol yeah... yeah it was.

It's decent now. Could stand to utilize the touchpads every now and then, but it ain't horrible anymore. I updated my review from 1 star to 4 stars, the point deduction is due to them saying this:

...then deleting their comment after the game had, in fact, been released with no touchpad support. Could've at least had the courtesy of admitting if their promise was bigger than their ability to deliver, but they straight-up refused to comment on the issue... kind of a **** move for a game that costs so much more than other (better) offerings.

...at any rate, I'm glad they at least got that massive chunk of internal storage pushed to the SD. I've got a 5-star rating with their name on it if they ever decide to come back and add analog touch pad support.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] rubbergnome:
I felt exactly the same when I read that comment. I actually got blocked in their youtube channel for asking about touchpad support. -_- It seems like the game still is an endless grind though...

Hello guys..

I am a GNote 2 user, but i'm planning to buy a smartphone for my girlfriend and in this case, i think s3 mini is quite a good phone..

what i am asking here is, how's the battery life on s3 mini? with my note 2, i can get around 24 hours with email, twitter, facebook, and another social network app syncing every time and a lil bit gaming of course.. For the s3 mini, how long does it last in average? Thanks :fingers-crossed:

I'm surprised that your phones can take it that long with gaming/browsing like that.. mine normally gets through the day, with +-5% to spare..

- charges by night, till 7A.M.

- overday average usage: 25 texts, 15-30min talking, 20min gaming, 20min doing other stuff

- wifi/mobile data/sync/bluetooth are always on

- going to bed at 1A.M., so 18h of working time.

Guess I could optimize by disabling that wifi etc.. Also tried some power savers:

- juice defender didn't do a thing at first sight :/ (free edition)

- easy power blabla was buggy & gave black screens

- go power master really helps, managed to get through 2 days actually.. however, the screen transitions were quite slow. I don't know yet what settings I used, reinstalled it today & at first glance it doesn't help that much anymore.. :p (transitions are smooth again though)

Any other tips on power saving are also welcome ;)

Can anyone beat this - 3 days battery on one charge

I used better battery stats to remove the wakelocks on my phone and Gemini app manager to stop some apps from starting automatically. The main wakelock I found was the software update check under about phone. Power saving is on and the screen brightness is quite low. This was normal usage including moderate calls/browsing/games but I turn off wifi/data when not using it.

I could've quite easily have lasted another 6-8 hours but I didn't want my phone to die on me while at work so I charged it overnight.
