[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shutterbrandon:
Hey there guys! I have a rooted Galaxy Nexus running the latest OS. I have cancelled my home internet forever ago as the speeds I get from Verizon's 4G are plenty for what I use the internet for. I would plug my phone into my computer tower (no WiFi card) and bam, I would have internet.

However, I recently acquired a roommate who has a laptop and is connecting to my phone via WiFi. This works extremely well, as does everything else that connects to my phone via WiFi.

Here is where my conundrum is coming into play. The WiFi and USB network are different. We were trying to play Minecraft on LAN mode and realized that we weren't on the same network.

I began my googling and came across bridges, and using a cracked firmware for my router (ddwrt) to become a wireless repeater of sorts.

This is all a bit above my head however. I plug my router into my Ethernet port, and the cat5 on the router is plugged in where the modem cat5 should be. Internet still doesn't work from the router. My Router is a WNR2000v3

Tried Hamachi, that didn't work. Help fellow Android users!

Hi All,

I was using my Galaxy Tab 8.9 3G+WIFI (GT-P7300) with original Android Stock Rom 3.2

I rooted the device for using Apps like Titanium Backup.

Recently, I updated it to the ICS 4.0.4 version (P7300JKLP4_P7300PTRLP3_PTR) using ODIN 1.85

I did not wipe my device nor reseting it to the factory default.

Once completed, it seems that everything is working great with the following exception:

I keep getting on every cold start a message about "Android Upgrdae / Optimizing Application 2 of 2". It happens every time I turn my device on.

Since the device is now unrooted (after the update) I am trying to avoid factory reset as I will not be able to use my TB recovery (requires root).

The "old" methods for rooting the device (i.e. puting the ZIP file in the root directory and than activate it from the device recovery mode) does not seem to be applicable to the 4.0.4 version....

I am looking for a way to overcome the anoying "Android Upgrdae / Optimizing Application 2 of 2" message on every cold-start.

I am looking for a way to re-root my GT-P7300 with Stock ICS 4.0.4
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kishkush:
Found the reason for keeping optimizing my 2 aps...

This was for 2 freezed apps by audio manager (hide it pro)

Since i lost my rooting while upgrading, i had to do a factory reset

Its now solved...

Only problem is with the rooting...

Hai all i am working on a working ics rom for the Veolo player and clones.

Now i downloaded a rom from Himedia Q5 and wanted to extract the system.img logo.img and boot.img files to see whats inside

I tried all tools available on this forum (Unjaffs2 etc.) but no luck so far

The firmware is available here https://mega.co.nz/#!KMkHVTCR!XSLG0gNa-z20jDqYNQbNMy89qQZC1WIQpy5SmUGAcbk

Can some one try to extract this img files for me and explain to me how they did it ?

I can,t run it n the veolo beause the veolo has 512mb system memory and the himedia q5 1gb.So i can't make a system dump.

I want to modify the rom to be used on a veolo thats the idea.

I thing these files are packed some how ???

Hope you can help me guys thnx :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuisma:
system.img is an yaffs2 file system: 4K 24bits/1K and contains root filesystem as well.

boot.img is NOT an Android boot image, but an uImage kernel.

bootargs.img contains kernel boot arguments in text.

Quite not-the-way-we-do-it-in-Android, but manageable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraakie256:
yeah i know the bootimg contains the kernel etc and the system.img is a yaffs2 file system i also know

Buit still the problem is that i can't extract the root file system etc in it all tools i could find gave a error ?

Any idea how i can extract it ? since the common tools seems not to work ?

Thx for the info btw :)

Anyone who can help me unpack the system.img and the userdata.img ???????????????????
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbes:
Unpack system.img Q5 and MMB-422 or Veolo aka Godbox

Yeah, no problem. I own a MMB-422, a Veolo look-a-like. I have an ICS firmware for it, so it should also work on your Veolo. The problem is that you need an RS232 <-> UART or USB <-> UART converter to modify the systems partition and upload the new ICS firmware. I build one myself. I posted the howto on meteorit.wikia.com/wiki/MMB-422.HDTV/Software-Updates

I managed to decompile the system.img and userdata.img from the Q5 with yaffs2utils. I believe I used the following command ./unyaffs2 -p 4096 -s 200

To unpack the MMB-422 firmware (8K chunks and 366B spare) I also use unyaffs2 but with -p 8094 and -s 366

But then......I can pack the system dir again to an system.img with mkyaffs2img but it generates an image with a complete different layout and it cannot be used with our "Godbox".

Maybe we can coöperate? Do you live in The Netherlands? I do......Do you have C++ skills?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraakie256:
Well i managed to unpack it etc but my Veolo died Flash mem full of bad blocks grrrr

I amw aiting for a replacement

Btw The firmwares MMB-422 choose -p8192 -s368 ;)

And for the Himedia -p4096 -s200 and you can repack it with -p8192 -s368 but it seems that somehow the fw crashes when you flaash it

I think it's a library in the lib folder who causes the crash

Can't continue at the moment since my veolo died

And no i dont have C++ Skills i understand it a bit :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbes:
That's true. I made an mistake.

The (re)compiled image has a complete different structure so the mkyaffs2img program has to be rewritten to suite our needs. It wont flash it in bootloader (u_boot aka fastboot) mode.

To bad that your Veolo's NAND has died! Are you sure? Did you try a complete erase of the whole NAND and then repartition the NAND again? Do you use UART?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraakie256:
yeah it's dead i used a uart\

When you recomplile remove the first part of the header with a hexeditor

Look for Yffsv10 or something like that

And remove all crap before that. other wise fastboot won't regonize it as a yaffs2 image
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Invincible29:
Hi there,

I was wondering if someone here can confirm what my suspicions are in regards to the tethering on three.

I used sim only ayce conteact last year ajd tethered alot and never had the tethering block screen crop up. However I came to the end of my 12 month contract and for cash back offers, I terminated my old contract and took a new one. Term time feb 2012 till jan 2013.

I use linux and windows and every time I tether after a while a screen comes up no tethering page.

Now there are two things that I have suspicions about.

1) three has started deep packet inspection on all contracts.

2) only new contracts or sim cards are detectable.

Has anyone been in same situation as me or any thoughts are welcomed.

Looks like I will have to start using proxy server on my laptop to avoid this. Obviously it will reduce the speed a bit.

My mate is on old contract and he seems fine tethering away on his mac and on my laptop. So is the second reason above more likely?

I

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirk:
3 only allow tethering on the One Plan. On all the others you have to buy an add-on. It seems a bit hit and miss when it comes to detection though. Some people seem to be pulled up on it as soon as they try to tether while others seem to get away with it. How they detect it or why some people seem to get away with it is anyone's guess!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Invincible29:
Well I cannot tell how 3 finds out because I have used different machines and browsers but it always catches on usb or wifi or bluetooth on my new 3 sim only ayce contract.

I never had this issue on my previous sim contract. Must be that older accounts were left as they were due to T&Cs and rigorous filtering on new ones. Wish I hadn't cancelled my old one for cashback.

I will find a way.

Screw it mate you can close both as far as I am concerned.

Enough of ****ters online anyway.

Code encode decode
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirk:
It looks like they're just taking a zero tolerance approach with newer contracts, as you suggest. What method they use to detect tethering i don't know, but it seems pretty foolproof. Looking around at similar threads recently it seems that there is no getting around it. Even with apps that purport to hide the tethering.

Looks like it's the One Plan, or buying the add-on are the only options.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kartik50:
Boys, when there's a will, there's a way. And I found it. Basically, 3 use packet sniffing to find what user agent you are using. If it detects anything non phone, boom - tether block. Now, there are some sloppily coded apps, for example, uTorrent, adownloader and until recently, Dolphin Browser. They use a desktop user agent and so cause the block.

Three is well aware of this, so call them up and say you have this problem from an app which you must use. Insist they escalate the call to the technical team - these guys are the ones who call you back within 72 hours.

Once they call you back, they will tell you that they've added you to a whitelist, so you are exempt from the block. You can tether, torrent download anything at will - all restrictions are removed.

My friend took this to the max, with his limit removed, he uses up regularly over 250 gigs a month and torrents at over 1MBps. And his phone doesn't even have dc-hspa.

Good luck friends - hope this works for you!

2. Extract .tar file with WinRAR or 7Zip.

For ODIN you need install driver of Android for PC. If you are connected with Internet, it need install automatic.

You need in ODIN use Beni v1.0.ops.

Have stock ROM with 1 file and 4 files.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] gurumef:
Can't find the .tar file anywhere o/l

All the ROMs out there are (.zip) something like S5670DDKT3_S5670ODDKT2_INU.zip

I don't really prefer any of these battery savers as they don't work perfectly always.

But if you're rooted, you could try greenify which hibernates apps which could be draining the battery. (there are many for rooted)

general "no-root" power managers don't do much...they generally suspend 3g/wifi in case they are on while screen is off...The point is the settings which they apply can be done manually too!!

If you are rooted, try juice defender...it applies more tweaks if root access is enabled, apart from that it also gives night schedule where activity of phone is reduced...

Another option is "No-frills cpu control".. if u are on custom kernel, use it to define min-max freq according to ur requirement, and set governor(search about governors on google/xda) and include deep sleep by going in settings...this will surely increase battery life!!

What's the best music player you found....audio quality...easy of use...and ofcourse better than default music player

Let me start first...

Denon music player for audio when you disable equaliser is the good sound quality...but the bad...it is not user friendly...and equaliser have to disable manually..the setting only for tune in...not for the app itself

And the other one is poweramp audio quality is good..but lower audio quality than denon music app....the one things I like about it is...the player is easy to use...the interface is good...

Just reviewed...ithink it is the best overall...player pro...audio quality superb...it blend nicely with beats...interface good...and yrs it is better than stock

Recommended

Tried winamp...not better than stock music player...

Tried double twist..the sound smear...well if you find good on your hox+ let me know

Neutron..is not intended for hox + smear

What do you think?

[HTC One X+] anyen:
Try denon and see the different quality of sound..
[HTC One X+] theskeptic:
Tried Denon but it pays no attention to volume button, therefore volume is stuck at about 80%. Stock player at same relative volume has far better bass response on the Photek track I used for comparison. The stock player also seemed to have a more spacious sound and better stereo separation. No Beats used, useless thing.

Volume issue seems related to eq. Disable eq and volume toggle responds. Changed to Orbital track, in flac. Belfast, classic tune. Anyhoo, Denon has a very weak sound. Highs seem overly compressed and a bit too quiet. Stock player, no complaints.

Subjective question, so subjective answer. Stock is better.
