Seen the new crowdfunded E Ink iPhone case?

www.wired.com/design/2012/11/popslate-e-ink-phone-case/

The hybrid Nook Classic could be reimagined this way: A 6 to 7 inch LCD screen on the front, and an E Ink screen on the back. The E Ink screen can be used for reading and as an always-on display while the LCD screen can be used for everything else. The best of both worlds!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milton_blake:
Dear all,

I've got a problem that I hear a lot about for different phones but haven't found a useful solution yet (yes, I searched xda as best as I could).

While my phone Android phone (Desire Z, stock 2.3.3, not rooted) used to be pretty swift after I got it, it significantly slowed down over time.

What's bothering me most is that, after using a couple of applications, it takes a couple of seconds to load the launcher, even after having exchanged HTC Sense for LauncherPro which helped for a while.

I'm not a developer but it seems logic to me that that once powerful phone is still there and is only crammed up with useless processes/background operations by useless/inefficient apps.

So here are my questions:

How can I clearly identify apps which slow my phone down? Is there a way to limit their damage?

How much internal memory or RAM needs to be available before memory becomes a performance issue? Right now, I have 220MB internal storage and 71MB RAM available.

Can I selectively and completely turn off apps while I don't use them without uninstalling them?

Can I switch background operations on and off (e.g. I will definitely survive without some rarely used social apps checking for messages)

Can I change how often an app is active while I'm not using it actively (e.g. have whatsapp check for new messages only every 5 minutes)

I'd appreciate any answer!

Best regards & Thanks in advance

The thanks bar is officially meaningless. Maybe it should just be removed.

Or, maybe thanks should only be given when either a) a developer makes something and posts it on XDA, or b) someone asks a question and they receive/instructions to fix their broken phones.

Alternatively, give XDA an age requirement of 21, or at least 18. If only it was possible to verify :confused:

I found that Volume rocker wake worked on ICS perfectly when Generic.kl was edited in system/usr/keylayout.

However, in Jellybean, editing it functions erratically. Volume rocker does not work in deep sleep.

Motorola provided a neat little function in build.prop for this.

Open up your build.prop. You'll find this Wake on vol line persist.mot.volumekey.wakeup=0. Change that to 1 and volume rocker Wake is enabled.

Now, you've to add WAKE after Volume_UP and Volume_DN in the files

Generic.kl,evfwd.kl and omap4keyboard.kl located in System/usr/keylayout

[Motorola Atrix 2] duchski:
I am on ICS OTA trying to replicate and no luck. can anybody point me to good directions to enable volume wake ?
[Motorola Atrix 2] raffmonster:
In ICS, you only have to add WAKE after the Volume_up(key 115) and Volume_down (key 114) in Generic.kl, as shown in the pic. Leave a couple of spaces, and make sure your keyboard doesn't automatically add a full stop. WAKE should be written, in caps, as specified.Also, check the permissions of the file after saving. They should be rw-r-r (6 4 4).
[Motorola Atrix 2] anikadam:
You need to remove two lines from android.policy jar and then edit the Generic.kl file and add WAKE_DROPPED after Volume up and down for this to work..

If you are fine with recompiling and decompiling i can help you out..
[Motorola Atrix 2] duchski:
Guys, which one is it? LOL
[Motorola Atrix 2] anikadam:
Ive done this and just changing the generic.kl isnt goin to change anything.. You need to edit the isWakeKeyWhenKeyguardShowing.smali in android.policy.jar..
[Motorola Atrix 2] duchski:
Do you have a recompiled jar file that would work on my AT&T OTA ICS phone?

I got a back up of Cyanogen mod and my phone is rooted. I also installed CWM with Xparts. I tried to restore Cyanogen via recovery but it turned out that the kernel was still Sony's (by the way, I flashed Fusion 4.0 kernel for my Cyanogen) so instead of booting into the system, the phone turned off after about 1 minute hanging at the Sony logo.

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with my one xl (o2de, everything is stock): depending on a picture on the screen its brightness changes.The "whiter" picture - the higher the brigthness (and it's not a hallucination:)), it looks like inverted CABC with big amplitudes of brightness changes. For example, screen brigthness for the picture 2 would be higher than for the picture 1, the same stuff with 4 and 3 (and it happens even during video playback, brightness goes up and down constantly). What could be the reason? Automatic brightness is off, of course.

Well lets not say "hack" because I'm pretty sure that even if you get backtrack on you phone, your phone isn't capable of packet injection. There is one app named WiFi Unlocker which if he has a Thompson router, you'll be able to get in. The app uses some information from the router and basically uses the default key. I tried it and it works. The only thing is, is that you wont find that many Thompson routers because they arent very popular.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragGuardiano:
Hi Everybody,

so i was looking at the teardown for our little baby, when i came across this:

Toshiba THGBM5G6A2JBAIR 8GB Flash

So i went online and do a little search. It turns out that Toshiba builds other sizes of this particular chip.

Looking at the specsheet, it seems that every single spec is the same (can't post the link yet)

So i was wondering if we can replace this damn chip (since i'm stuck with an 8gb version of the Nex 4 (Yeah..since they don't sell in Italy...i had to find a compromise) I know it would take a lot of soldering works, but the real problem is: How to install the OS and stuff?

So i'm planning to ger one of this chips, or a broken phone with one of this (from 16 to idk) and try to do some research, in order to get if i can do this substitution.

So..anyone tryed this before that can help me out with some advices?

Thanks everyone and for the mods...if this is not the right place to post this, i'm sorry...:angel::angel::angel:

p.s.

Sorry for my bad English
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
Don't attempt to replace the chip with a soldering iron. You need someone with a dedicated SMT rework station that can handle BGA devices. (this chip is a VFBGA according to the datasheet).

Even then, it may not boot at the end of it... Be prepared to have a bricked phone... On the other hand, if it works, you may be able to make a buisness out of selling 32GB Nexus 7's until Google/LG makes them....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Basically, it's not something an end user could do.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragGuardiano:
Ok, so since is a BGA device, reballing and reflowing should do the trick.

I know that is something that an end user shouldn't do...but give it a try should be nice...of course i would not go straight for the replacement on the n4, i will start with something else before.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Installing it is one thing, it's getting the important stuff on there that is the problem.

It's not a case of just fastboot flash, since there are more partitions than that.

Plus you need fastboot to be there in the first place, JTAG would probably cover that, but the rest? God knows.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragGuardiano:
Yeah..that's my problem afterall...i mean..put the chip on that is kinda fine..i mean i do this on notebooks so i'm used to reballing and stuff.

But the OS thing is going to drive me mad...meh..need to figure out how to do that!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
Just don't do it. You're gonna regret it. Laptops is one thing but a cellular device is another. Chips are way smaller and complicated. It's not as easy as you may think.

But it's your phone, you can do whatever you like to it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sinfamy:
This is retarded. You realize those connectors are so small it requires machines worth millions of dollars to attach and connect. Might as well use some Elmer's glue or a hot glue gun if you're gonna do it yourself, or hey maybe even some ear wax, you'll get the same result.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragGuardiano:
Ok, nevermind.

I'll do some tests with my machine and some old crappy phone...u never know what is going to happen..lol

Tnx anyway guys!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss2pheonix:
Everyone else here is an unambitious ass

Dude you shouldn't let people detour you, soldering chips is not that hard and the size of the chip doesn't really make a difference for BGA most of these guys probably have never soldered a BGA chip in their life so how would they know how hard it is. I would suggest that you practice on some old pcs or an old game system that you dont care about. the hard part about this would be getting your hands on the new chip (and weather or not it is pre-balled because re-balling is a *****), from what I can tell toshiba only will sell the chip in a minimum quantity of 5 chips per order so if all goes well you may be able to charge people to upgrade their nexus 4s.

People are to scared now-a-days to get their hands dirty and take risks to get what they want and I commend anyone willing to put in the time, learn a new skill, and get what they want even though no one will just give it to them.

I hope you decide to do this anyway.

PS. The bootloader/recovery should be a separate memory module all together and should still exist when the chip is replaced, so if I had to guess i would say that you could just flash a new rom assuming your bootloder is unlocked and the chip comes pre-formatted.

Hello everyone..

I juss wanted to know if the"sim card change alert" function still works when d phone is formated-factory reset/(or even rooted).

Juss for a case......

I lost my phone and a person unknown to me found it and has no intention to return.as soon as he found d ph,he removed the battery,removed d sim card And then did d factory reset.and after dat he used his own new sim.

My question is ... does d ph still sends d new sim card no to the preset nos,as all d associate google acc gets erased by factory reset.after factory reset ph automatically shows its "sim card alert" setting uncheck making it useless.

I read somewhere in the net..it said dat although google acc goes..but cyber setting(ph mac add/google ph recog etc) remains and it detects d ph and send changed sim no. BUt What if..the person who found d ph never uses d internet..how can d cyber setting work?...

Or does rooting d ph juss after finding makes it more easy for untracking?

Basically do what tidy said.

You need to report the IMEI/MEID of your handset so that it can be blocked no matter what SIM is used (again with the caveat tidy mentioned). If you don't know it, it should be printed somewhere on the package that your phone came in when you bought it.
