there is loads of free stuff out there if you want it a forum like this is brillant for info but there is a wide range of others out there
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] climber:
My two cents in what seems to become a long thread.

First to answer mac's orignal question. I can't help you (currently :lol: )

In response to XDA developer Peter Poelman's response I want to submit that in order to keep this forum alive we certainly don't need the professional traders.

As for software licensing. I have been/am on both sides. User and author. It's annoying if people just copy whatever they like, especially if they make a lot of money with it.

My justification so far has been. I use 'evaluation copies' for 2 or 3 weeks or so and if it is still in use I buy the software. Is it legal? Probably not? Is this wrong? Probably yes, but I can sleep at night.

We all invent 'our rules' for the world. If you want to be safe, stick with the rules. If not just be prepared to have your a@# kicked every now and then.

Although I sympathise with the argument of being a student, etc etc, that doesn't justify it (nor do my own 'rules' :P do that). What would you charge someone with 5 children and being a single parent?

And most of the times there are alternatives. For instance in the windows space there is a lot of free software around and some of them are real jewels. If you are curious: www.nonags.com.

Industry responds with free software containing banners and adds, we all hate them, install cracks/patches to get rid of them. Wake up guys. They give it away for free and still we whine. (yes, I hate adds and banners to and I kill them whenever possible). I think we shouldn't whine about initiatives like Palladium if we copying everything we can get our hands on.

Overall my advise is: don't use THIS forum for conducting that behaviour and for the rest live and let live. In my opinion its a forum for undertanding the XDA and its technology. I don't even have one yet ( :evil: ) but I have learned a lot already. One could argue about some of the things tht could be done with the XDA (un-simlocking of accidently locked phones) but it's mainly discussing the device, software and accessoiries.

Being nosy is not a crime.

Having knowledge is not a crime.

But using knowledge could be a crime.

And even the first 2 can be a crime depending on where you live.

Pfffffffffft, I must be PMS'ing. Sorry people :wink:

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Nossie:
I think games should be paid for....

but as far as tools etc goes I think it would be fair to follow the GPL...

You pay for what you make money with.

I'm a frequent visitor to alt.binaries....pocketpc and I've probaly downloaded 700mb or so in pocketpc warez since I bought my XDA...

I have an easynews account which archives newsgroup posts from the last 30 days.

That software I downloaded because I thought it looked interesting; not because it was there. Out of those god knows how many programs I have 12 programs that I keep on my xda at all times... these I have registered:

Battery Pack 2003 <<< really good

Resco Explorer 2003

Lextionary <<< prolly the best dictionary tool

Snails

Marble Worlds

Diamond Mine <<< addictive as hell

Speedball 2 << we love the Amiga !!

Pocket C64 <speaks for itself>

Dockware

Small menu <<< damn good btw

Rhinostats

Truefax

The others I played with for a while and then dumped because they were errr CRAP ? or there were other better alternatives (atleast in the power monitoring area)

Diamond mine I downloaded months ago... and only registered yesterday.

I dont believe in buying stuff I dont need.. and downloading them gives me more time to decide whither I'm going to keep it... or fire it onto a DVDRW and forget about it after a month.

I also have a wares copy of Autocad Studio Max 5 on my computer... $5k to buy in the shops...

most people dont learn this program at Uni (atleast the good ones anyways). Most of them pick up a copy when they are in their early teens and continue to learn with it till they master the techniques. After doing so they go to Uni and get the bit of paper... later on they get a job with a company which has bought a license to the application.

Autocad arent missing out on my license... I'd have never considering paying the $5,000 in the first place.

Some people say that 3D Animation is a craft. I've known people who have been 'learning' it for the past 7 years. Where would Autocad get its budding new business licenses if the 3D warez market dried up and only the large software houses could afford them?

Games are different, you cant make money from them.

I bought StarScape the other day for the PC.

http://www.moonpod.com/English/about_ss.php

download the demo and give it a go ;)

I normaly run games in 1600x1200 or above... but the fact this runs in 640x480 makes no difference.

You might also want to check this site out for some more quality game play... and best of all they are free 8)

http://www.tierraentertainment.com/ (reworked kings Quest I&II)

http://www.back2roots.org/ (shtuff from eons ago)

games from the era of when gaming had gameplay, hand drawn graphics and not just a billion polygons fired at it.

Strange comment from a 3D artist.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] kevin:
software

hi mac

try bear share there is loads of software on there i dont think we should trade games on here i used to use another site for my nokia communicator and it started to trade software and now it gives very little free and has turned into a business venture about selling software and not the product which it was originally meant to help promote amongst fellow users
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Guest:
Well, we'll be relasing a game soon aswell and i would like to think that if people download the demo and they are happy with it, that they would then go on to buy the full version. Its not like the average pocket pc game costs a fortune.

The way I look at it is if people dont buy software, people will stop writing it, I have purchased many games/apps, and am glad i supported the writers of such software. As a result newer and better versions are released, i prime example is Battery Bar along with Journal Bar, fantastic bit of software.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reynbow:
I'm not sure if I should even be asking this here as I'm Australian, so none of the "Verizon, Sprint, TMobile or AT&T" really apply to me. But this seems to be the only place to ask. I would ask here, but I can't as I'm new.

I have a Galaxy Note 2 LTE. As I said, I live in Australia, so it's the international version of the device. GT-N7105.

I'm trying to put CyanogenMod on the device, but obviously I need to put the ClockworkMod recovery on the device first.

Now, at first it was working. I was able to put the recovery on the device completely fine. Then I downloaded the CyanogenMod and tried to flash it on to my device. It wouldn't work. I later discovered that I was using the wrong recovery. I was using the american version of my device, which was incompatible with the CyanogenMod version for my device.

I ended up attempting to put the correct ClockworkMod on my device, and this is where the issue has begun. Ever since then my device has done the exact same thing every time. I ended up "formatting" my device with the official firmware for Australia, bringing it back to normal. Though it's still only 4.1, and the main reason I want to use CyanogenMod, not to mention the bloatware.

Now here's the problem that's happening. I seem to be able to put the correct ClockworkMod on the device just fine... Except when I boot in to recover, the screen spazes out and then the device **appears to** turn off. Holding the power button appears to turn it back on like normal and I can boot back in to my device just fine.

HERE'S A VIDEO SHOWING EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS

As you can see I installed ROM Manager which shows that the ClockworkMod Recovery is installed and detected by it just fine.

Can anyone give me any information as to why this is happening and/or what I could potentially do about it?

Sorry for the long post. Hopefully it's not toooooo long.

I just watched the video, and this is happening because that version of CWM is not for the n7105. You need to use the ones in our forum, that are clearly labeled for our device.

[Networking] sugarboy.sanju:
bhai,

there have beenmany tweaks .. but none of them actually INCREASE the speed ,

just check if your phone is gprs Class 12 capable ..

if yes u might get a speed of more than 100kbps(depends on the signal strength).

just check your gprs and edge version and also try to get a better signal at your phone.

Hello,

If you simply browse page, you may try to use a compressor proxy to reduce download time.

Some browser may provides this automatically (I know chrome beta does, but it's not available for your phone), and it will only work if server don't already compress data.

Antenna to increase speed

You could use an antenna (should your phone support it) to increase signal strength and thus speed. I have used 900mhz Yagi antennas to increase range. Of course, when already in reception the download speed is increased.

I haven't used cwm in a while I use twrp instead. You can install twrp either via a zip thru cwm(but since it's not working right I'd advise against it) or goomanager then menu > install openrecovery script and it will download and automatically install twrp for you. It's been much more stable for me. You could also try the modified cwm by garwynn the sxtp recovery which is in the original dev forum

Hey guys (hope that's the right section)

today the LG 4X HD 4.1.2 Leak was released so I flashed it and there are this new fu**ing awesome lockscreen Icons

(attachment)

but they're only available on lockscreen so is there some Icon pack which brings such Icons for homescreen? I did see one but they are rounded black and I like it much more like this ones on lockscreen:)

and if there isn't such a pack -is there a way to extract the icons from system files? and where do I find them?

Looking forwards to your replies with hopefully such icons:D

regards nbock

AW: searching that icons from LG 4X HD lockscreen

Hey sorry for late reply! Hmm I think it's diffucult because they're ONLY on lockscreen the ones on Homescreen are the "normal ones" and they are just looking like that since I updated to android 4.1.2 and that's a leak so which theme should be like this? (I'm not a themer just wanna have that nice Icons!)
[Android Themes] sy224048:
Those aren't the actual icons. If you press on them and move it will show the full icon. Its just a mask on top of the real icon.

[HTC Desire C] russell664:
Hi guys I present you with the new RevoluTioN Super Stripped edition. This thread and Rom has been created, because this Rom has different aims than the core revolution roms, the aims for this rom are:

Very minimal size

Many less apps than you expect

Options for other people to add thier own desired apps, instead of stock HTC Ones.

A lag free system

Make the wait for CM9/CM10 a little better.

#include
*
* Your warranty is now void.
*By you using my Mods, Roms etc...
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, or dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
* Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

This Rom is for more advanced users here on XDA, if you do not know what you are doing, and consider your self a NOOB then please look at the other RevoluTioN Rom, located here: Revolution Rom Sense/De-sense edition

​

The Rom is featured below, make sure you read the following notes located on the next post before you consider this rom, if you are confident about android then give it a shot and post back your results. :)
[HTC Desire C] russell664:
As mentioned in the above post make sure you are confident with both ADB and installing apps separate to the rom, if you cannot do this, do not install this Rom you will have problems, and lack of apps!

The recommended steps of installing this Rom are:

First download the Zip file from this thread

Second copy the Zip file to your Phones SD Card.

Now enter recovery, you should know how to do this, if you don't don't install this Rom.

Install the Zip file from recovery

Now reboot into bootloader mode, with your phone connected Via USB

Find the boot.img you want to install, located inside the Zip file the one in the Root of the Zip is 806mhz the others are located in the kernels folder in the Zip

Flash the new kernel, then reboot into your new system :)

Re: [ROM][AROMA] Revolution Rom, Super stripped edtion

No need to worry about free memory in android, the system will allocate what memory is needed for the requested task, if the user don't require memory for any particular app the os will load certain apps to memory to save load times and cpu cycles for when those apps are called for.

Too much free memory in android is just wasted memory, its how the os works.

By the way great job Russell, one thing I'm curious about, does anyone know how to make the quick settings buttons light blue instead of green?
