Mine's on order and should be shipping tomorrow. So if I post my review with pics, I just link them in an email to them to get the discount? SWEET! Thanks for the info man!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] JanusDC:
It probably doesn't work that way. If you already paid for it, and you didn't agree with them before of that, I doubt they would give you some money. If you didn't bought it yet, you can agree with them to do a review, and then you would get a discount (I'm just interpreting the email they sent to me).

How much does it cost with 50% off? I'm willing to do this

Anyone got one of these?

http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=XDATHUMBPAD

As its a clip on device, I would hope that the onscreen keyboard disappears when you're using it... or does it come with software for caps lock control etc, come to think of it, can someone post a really good close-up photo showing the keys?

My main reason for being interested it ironically is more for gaming, as I'm a big fan of the Atari VCS emulator, and of course Pocket PC Mame, of course mame is a bit of a problem on the xda due to the few number of hardware buttons.

Obviously for more simple games the joypad is ok,

basics are

four directions

one fire button

a "coins" button

Exit game app button

The cenre click functionality of the xda joypad is difficult to use in some games, e.g. Atari VCS pitfall, where a fire button press is needed while moving left/right. The press down only works without directional control

Although its no problem for Atari games (I remap the fire button to the calendar or contacts button, with the emulator set to rotate the screen, in this configuration, the joypad is used with the right hand. ) Some MAME games have three fire buttons.

Obviously playing a two player arcade or VCS game on a handheld would be daft!

Obviously its a problem using the other hardware buttons, e.g volume or the two call buttons in case someone actually calls you while you're playing a game. In any case using these as fire buttons are too fiddly and close to the joypad.

I'd appreciate if someone could comment on this with their discoveries or experiences with this add on before I buy one. :D

The digitizer is blacked out because the screen was broken. Phone will still turn on and I have a new digitizer on order. The phone is locked. Is there a way to unlock the phone to download information to Keis?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrfeuss:
If you have a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) you can use the buttons (Both Volume+Power) to put the phone into recovery mode. Then if you look at a screenshot for that recovery you can probably make a backup and then transfer that to your computer. Not sure how possible it is, but it's better than nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
Just backup via recovery and wipe via odin
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] atomic26designs:
Not sure

I'm not sure on how to do that. I've looked everywhere for a replacement touch screen/digitizer and can't seem to find one for a decent price or here in the states. I bought one for a black one, same model, for $96 and replaced it myself. The color is a little off, yellowish, but it works well. Any suggestions to where to purchase a new one or unlocking this one to get everything off of it and just get another phone?

Sorry, im new in android......need help anyone.

When i try inside in download mode, press volume down+home+power....and i get the notice in screen like below :

Warning !!

A custom OS can cause critial problem in phone and installed application.

If you want to download a custom OS, press the volume up key.

Otherwise, press the volume down key to cancel.

Volume up : Continue

Volume down : Cancel ( restart phone )

What happen, why suddenly notice about that? Thanks for reply anybody...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axelman8:
Hi

This screen notification is a standard notification.

Nothing wrong with your note dude :D

Regards,

Axelman
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle.pau:
:) Thanks for the quicky reply it, dude !

Because before i never get the notice in my screen like that.

One more, my phone already root, use stock rom , and i want change my stock rom with the new built on feb, so i only need flashing the stock rom with odin ? or what?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Af far as i remember it this warning msg always been there. But if you have some mode/framwork/recovery installed and that may have option to reboot to download with power menu/toggle etc and using that short cut to reboot device to download mode will cut off warning screen, otherwise when you use three button combo to reboot to download mode, you will find warning screen always there.

Yes you can odin to update firmware, You can use mobile odin too to keep root intact, but again this won't update bootloader.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle.pau:
Dr.Ketan.........

Thanks for the awesome reply it... So can u give me the best choice, flashing with odin or with mobile odin to update firmware?

Because i really got crazy with the firmware LL7,....really make my battery drain faster. So i want flashing with new stok rom.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
My prefered method of update is

-Backup data with titanium

-Flash latest ROM with Odin

-Wipe cache and data

-Reroot

-Use triangle away to reset counter

-Use titanium scenario 'Restore Missing application with data'
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axelman8:
+1 This is my standard flash method

Regards,

Axelman
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle.pau:
Thanks mate axelman...

Dr.Ketan......once again, thanks so much for the great methode, and i will follow it, and update it. :good:

One question again Dr.Ketan.....when i check in download mode ;

- binary counter : ( 1 )

- current binary : custom

- system status : custom

And b4 i already use TA to reset binary counter, but now i check it, still not gone,.

What must i do it? I going to flashing the last stok ROM with Odin . And if i flash the new ROM, its mean my binary counter become ( 2 ).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
You need not to do anything right now

Flashing stock ROM won't raise count, but when you root it, it will raise

Just to keep in mind if you use custom recovery/kernel your counter will remain 1 even after using TA

if you root with Cf auto root, you can reset it to 0

After reseting counter, once boot device normally before checking counter.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle.pau:
I will do with what u say Dr.Ketan....thanks a lot for guide it.

Yeah, i never use other custom/kernel from other developers, i'm only use stock/kernel from samsung.

Before i root my phone with advance CMW, and i read all ur saying in forum if use advance CMW, cant reset to ( 0 ) even using by TA, its right Dr.Ketan?

If i factory reset my phone, and then flashing to the last stock ROM, can be back normally my status ? Sorry for noob question :(

What is the best stock ROM Dr.Ketan for can solve the battery issue ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Yes if you have custom stuff your counter can't be reset.

Flashing stock rom or wiping won't reset counter, but you have to reuse triangle away to reset it.

You can have any latest stock tom

-flash stock rom

Wipe cache and data

Reroot

Use triangle away

I'm from China.I wanna know does my device（i747M）is same as i747？

And can I flash the i747's roms？:confused::confused::confused::confused:Please:crying:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
The i747M is the Canadian model for carriers such as Rogers and Telus

The i747 is for AT&T etc

The ROMs are interchangable, but I think the modems are different. For flashing, you can mix and match in ODIN (however you should keep your i747M modem). Which carrier's SIM card are you using?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
He mentioned he's in china, using a canadian modem won't help much.

I'm with Rogers and use the latest modem. Just gotta look for your carrier's modem if you get bad/no reception. And check your APNs of course.

But like Unknown mentioned, I747M and I747 are pretty much the same and ROMs will work on both.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Veriky:
So,u mean I can flash i747's rom in my i747m device?But flash rom will change my modem?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
ODIN should generate an error message if you attempted to do it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Veriky:
And in these rom,included Chinese?If just English,i think i give up will be better.:crying:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Veriky:
so i keep it oringinal better than flash?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
I doubt that chinese is included as these ROMs are for the US/ Canadian markets.

I'd suggest that you keep the stock ROM on the device as is.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Veriky:
thanks a lot;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
Does your current phone work fine with the data-plan on your SIM card? If so, the only think you need to be concerned about is how to flash a new language on the device.

Basic rooting should be able to achieve this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Veriky:
So i can flash these roms?if i just flash rom and don't change the modem,it will flash successfully？If success and just has a language problem？
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonymously_Unknown:
I'd suggest you use the stock LL1 ROM from the Puerto Rican market. This has NO carrier bloat whatsoever and will flash successfully on your device (i747M).

You would use ODIN to flash this.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rqmok:
Hello.

As some of you know that I have ported CM10.1 from u8800pro to our device (u8800 non-pro).

However, there are three problems:

- no wifi

- no bluetooth (turns on but no discovery)

- no video recording

The first thing I am trying to fix is the Wifi, because that's what everyone is having problems with.

But, I cannot fix it alone. I have tried googling some solutions and have tried somethings myself, but still nothing.

Logcat says that the wifi 'Failed to Load Driver'

I think this is libhardware_legacy.so problem. I have even tried replacing that but then the phone doesn't fully boot up.

I need some solutions for this guys. I want help from developers to accomplish this task.

Thanks in advance.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
This is indeed libhardware_legacy.so issue. libhardware_legacy.so loads the wifi modules.

In case of U8800+, it loads bcmxxx.ko module, and it will not work on U8800. For U8800, wifi module consists of two pieces - librasdioif.ko and wlan.ko (or libra.ko). Since there are changes to libhardware_legacy between JB and ICS, simply replacing won't work. I could send you my libhardware_legacy.so if you'd want. It's set up to load /system/lib/modules/librasdioif.ko and /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko. Also, when wifi is turned on, polling must be turned on for sdc3 (wifi sdio card).

I made my libhardware_legacy.so to report wifi.driver.status (maybe it's not correct) to report "loading" when it's loading wifi modules. From there, you can add an init.rc handler for that property "echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/polling"

Please let me know if something is not clear.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rqmok:
Thanks

Thanks for the reply Blefish. I was hoping that you would help.

I would be very pleased if you send me your libhardware_legacy.so

And while we're at it, can you please also answer this question:

the Bluetooth in the CM10.1 ROM turns on, but it isn't discovering devices and it is not even being discovered by other devices. Can you please explain to me what files are responsible for this so I can edit them? (or do I have to start a new thread for that?)

Thanks for the help. really appreciate it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Alright, I added it in the attatchment. I built it upon the latest CM-10.1 source with these modifications.

Now, you need to add this init.rc handler:

on property:wlan.driver.status=loading
# When Wi-Fi driver starts loading, we will enable polling in SDC3.
write /sys/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/polling 1

I did not test this out myself, but it should work, let me know if it doesn't.

Note that this does not include MAC address, so you are likely to end up with 00:00:00:00:00:00 as MAC address. When I manage to fix my wifi, I will create a simple binary that will write it.

Unfortunately I can't help you on this. I haven't even tried porting bluetooth yet.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rqmok:
Need some more help

I'm kind of new to this android stuff. I can't find the file init.rc

Is it in boot.img?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mlopik:
Yes
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
It's in the boot.img, correct. You would need a boot.img unpacker, then you'd have to modify one of the init.huawei.rc or init.rc (does not matter) and add the handler I wrote in my previous post. Then you would have to repack it and boot it up.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mlopik:
Please report us if it's working. Thanks.

Yes, I will definitely report back if it works. It's just that I have a Chemistry assignment to finish first. :(

I can't seem to be able to unpack boot.img

Please help

I still don't want to give up trying to unpack and repack the boot.img

I have successfully unpacked the boot.img, but I can't see the files! The files are there, but I can't view them! Can anyone help me? I've tried googling the solution, but I couldn't find a solution! :crying:

I am using Ubuntu 11.10 64bit

I've tried heaps of them, but none of them seem to work.

Thanks

EDIT: Where can I download the source for CM10.1?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] forumber2:
If boot.img compiled in a Chineese computer,the ramdisk forces extract to / (root directory).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rqmok:
Thanks

Hey! Thanks! I actually found the files to be under the root directory!

But I don't know which files belong to the boot.img! Is there a way I can put them in a folder when I extract boot.img? And when repacking, do I have to give reference to where I can see the files or where I originally tried to extract the files?

Lets compile a list of areas with poor reception.

Having looked into options to improve reception, If the xda wasnt such a damned good device I'd hate it as a phone as I just cant use it as a mobile when I'm at home reliably, and lets face it networks lie about temporary faults with coverage.

Saying that, my Motorola V60 is also poor in my area - So I thought if we could all post bad areas anyone interested in buying an O2 xda in the same area would certainly think long and hard before committing to a contract for a year.

GSM/GPRS

Next to no coverage in the lower hill areas in Rusthall near Tunbridge Wells for O2

GPRS doesnt connect sometimes

single dot on antenna symbol, one bar next to it very occasionally.

SMS

SMS sending sporadic

VOICECALLS

Voicecalls are distorted

Other Network coverage

T-Mobile - coverage awful.

No service whatsover (cant even send sms)

Orange

We also get a poor reception here using Orange (although miles better than O2)

Anyone live nearby with Vodafone?

I'm hoping to switch networks for my xda after the years contract with o2 is up

Anon, I notice you're not man enough to use a real name. And that you have to resort to being abusive.

The whole point of this thread is to make people aware that salesmen who say that coverage is ok in your home area are sometimes unitentionally misleading the public.

If you enjoy misleading people then please leave this forum alone - its for sharing information - please read the posting guidelines.

And as for it being a simulation, dont you think its misleading, and why do you think I started this posting, to get REAL data - so we can compile our own results - and help other people who want to buy an xda. After all if a map showing coverage is false - whats the point of it. Would you sail to america in a yacht with a simulated map?

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Guest:
mmm. The colour coding seems to be misleading but its handy to know how close the cells are. Even if you are very close to the cells I would guess there are things that can block the radio signals (eg. hills, trees, building etc.).

You say T-mobile and Orange are worse than O2, so I would definately try Vodafone.

Also interesting is that O2's cell indicator has a form you can fill in if you have a piece of land they could put a new cell on. Might be an option?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] bamse:
Spent last week in the UK with my Qtek on Vodafone. WHAT A NIGHTMARE!!! You guys have the worst mobile coverage ever! And people seem to think it's ok!

I lost connection all the time while going on major roads between major cities! On the site of the company I visited you had to go outside in certain spots to get any coverage at all, and they used Vodafone as their main supplier. And last but not least, getting a GPRS connection worked like one time out of twenty.

Here in Sweden, I find it irritating that I have bad coverage at my summer house. Which is like 20 minutes drive from the nearest major road or small town. No wonder they use Sweden as a test bench for new mobile services!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] adesalis:
Could that also have something to do with the fact that the two largest mobile manufacturers are Scandinavian? You'd sort of expect it to work in your own back yard. When they try and turn up the juice in the UK, everyone complains about their kid's brains getting fried :)

addendum to my post about Sheffield and Wakefield.

reception is crap if you are running windows 2003 PPC 4.00.05 and 4.00.11

I put 3.17.03 on my XDA yesterday and I am stunned at the difference.

In my works building on 4.0.05 and 11 I never got a signal. now I thought fair enough because I am in the basement below ground level with iron bars on the window. not even one bar

since I've put my XDA back to 3.17.03 I've never had less than 3 bars, even in places where I've never got a signal.

I think I'll wait until an official O2 ROM release for 2003.
