On NoWizAsopMod I just noticed that if I drag the bottom right corner of the stock popup browser (I think) I can resize it to whatever size I want. Is that a feature of MA7? (Can anyone confirm that with a MA7 rom?)

Those who have used GDIPP for Windows know that it does a remarkably good job of smoothing jagged fonts in Windows. Fonts appear every bit as smooth as on a Mac.

Here is a link to the lastest software - just click the Downloads link. Run this in Windows and be amazed (P.S., if you want it to work in Firefox you need to go into advanced settings and turn off "Hardware Acceleration").

http://code.google.com/p/gdipp/

My question is, can we do something like this for Android? With software like this we would no longer care that we are limited by 1280 x 800 resolution as our webfonts would look AMAZING. Can it be done? I would gladly pay $10 for such an app in the Market.

P.S., And while you are at it, create an app that will let me adjust Gamma. :)

** I've attached a sample of gdipp in action on my Windows Laptop. The second attachment is with gdipp turned off. Flip back and forth between them and you will see the difference.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps] mitchellvii:
Just a quick heads up. Of all the Android browsers out there I would have to say Maxthon HD comes the closest to iOS Safari in font smoothing. Also they do something with their blacks to make them blacker.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gebazzz:
Yesterday, I restarted my S2, and that's the last time I've seen it turned on. It's simply death. It never restarted. It shut down forever. I'm wondering what's happened, it was working well before, but haven't find any answer... :(

Now, I probably already know the answer of the question I'm writing, but maybe I'm wrong... So, here is the question: is there a way to access the internal memory of a death Galaxy S2? I've tried to connect it to my PC, pressing the turn-on button and checking if something happens, but the device is obviously not recognized by the OS of my computer.

Any idea?

Thanks.

You could buy/make a USB jig to see if it brings life to your phone. Did you change anything before restarting? How long ago did you restart/shutdown the phone?

Will look at how-to/where-to-buy the USB jig...

No, I haven't changed anything before restarting.

And I installed the CM10.1 nightly on 8/3, so the phone was running for few days. The problem happened on 10/3 evening.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gebazzz:
The phone doesn't start with both my Samsung batteries, the original one and the original extended (2000mAh) one. So, I don't think it's the battery. Moreover, I left the phone under charge for an entire night, and I'm quite sure it was charging (touching the battery, it was warm), so even if it wasn't totally empty when I restarted the phone (around 13%), it's now fully charged. And the 2000mAh one was already fully charged.

Have you found the answer yet?

I have the exact same problem! I cant start my device at all, tried everything (and yes, new battery and such) but i cant get any life in it.

I really really need the stuff on the internal memory. But im not comfortable about sending it to service (i dont trust them to respect my privacy). So all i need is to get some life in it so i can mount it on my laptop and just copy the whole internal memory.

Im in such need of help i dont know what to do. I can pay some money to get a solution!

Running FL24 stock

Last week my GPS was working great. Quick locks and spot on.

Starting today, It's still been locking fairly quickly... with 8-10 sattelites... However, it's off by up to 500 meters... The accuracy is listed as 15 meters, but the location is off anyways.

I can't for the life of me figure it out.

I've run ##GPSCLRX#, cleared my A-GPS data, synced my clock with the NTP servers, set my clock to be 4 hours off on purpose... and still it persists with the inaccuracies...

Is there a sunflare I missed or something?

What else can I try to fix it? Is the phone just going bad?

I am unsure of what is the problem? If there is a volume warning as in the highest level has been reached well then it won't go away and you should try flashing a different ROM (ie don't be on stock).

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vanhoud:
How do you even get that warning?? I can't get that no matter how much I raise the volume . I heard it was a country specific thing
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mumaster20:
It is a country specific setting yes.

I got my Nexus 4 set to the Dutch language, and thus setting my region to The Netherlands.

This makes the warning appear, since Android has to show that warning in my region.

Dont ask me why, it just has to.

I'm running Rasbeanjelly atm and there is an option to turn this warning on/off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzC:
Cyanogenmod had the option to disable the headset warning as well. The devs of PA straight out refused the requests to have the option to disable it. They claimed its the law and is there for a good reason. It's actually the reason I switched from PA to xylon.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexbergsland:
I got rid of the volume warning :)

I'm on PA (pa_mako-3.15-16APR2013-180835.zip) and I'm not going to switch to another rom any time soon.

First I had to learn how to use Apktool APKTool Tutorial

Then I followed the instructions at [GUIDE | TUT | HACK] Remove Android 4.2.x safe volume message

What you do is take the framework-res.apk -file from the rom.zip you want to change.

Then decompile it using Apktool, change a number and then compile it again and put the framework-res.apk in a zip and flash (or adb push)

:)

The warning is annoying to me not because I play at ridiculously high volumes but because I always have something else controlling the output to the speakers. When I'm using headphones I have a bt-headset controlling the volume and when in my car its the car stereo.

Tasker sets the media volume to max when any kind of headset is connected just to make levels even so its not full blast in the car speakers one day and no sound the next.

Dear sheran_g

this will help lots of users who wants to have a look to the new version of Microsoft Mobile 2003 OS.

some people who doesn't have SD or MMC card migth need to wait for somebody like Mr. Jeff who did the xda-developers ROM exe file or wait for the official release which won't be free as confirmed by Carrier Devices the main distributors of Qtek

i have seen a post on another forum and here's what it says

Microsoft Mobile 2003 represents several major feature enhancements to

Pocket PC 2002, especially in the connectivity and mobility aspects

where the Qtek 1010 is very strong. As Microsoft has just released the

new upgrade there will be a short delay for us to finalise the other

elements we need to add to the operating system in order to complete our

devices. We will be providing an upgrade at an additional cost once our

integration is complete and we have checked the compatibility of

existing applications with Microsoft Mobile 2003.

thanks again sheran_g for the great job.

Othman :)

Thanks for instructions

HI Sheran,

Thanks for the great instructions. I am not computer literate and intend to use Jeff's exe to upgrade my 3.16.32 ENG rom to the SER ver 1.2 which is available for use. I intend to back up my rom just in case things go wrong as you have so vividly described. So do I do the same steps as you outlined in backing up my old rom to my sd card? If things go wrong, do I simply insert my sd card with the backed up rom and reboot with the soft reset and my xda would then automatically recognised the old rom and ask for flashing? What is the action button you mentioned in your description?

Sorry for being a complete idiot and hope you could kindly provide the much needed valuable tips.

Cheers

Vic
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] sheran_g:
Hi there,

Yes, you can restore your old ROM if you back it up through the Bootloader onto your SD Card. If you have the SD Card with the old ROM and reset your XDA into the Bootloader, it will ask you if you want to flash. Press the Action button at this point. (Step 3 of the Procedure)

The Action button is your navigation button. Push down on it whenever it says 'Press the Action button'
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] smaslift:
Hi Sheran,

Thanks for quick answer. Will do that as told.

One question though- will all the programs I have including things like contacts etc be erased if I flash my rom with the SER ver 1.2? I suppose this will happen since I need to hard boot the set once the rom is flashed?

Cheers

Vic
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] sheran_g:
Yes. All of it will go. The SD Backup only covers the OS and not your settings, apps, contacts, etc.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] smaslift:
Hi Sheran,

Thanks for info.

Guess I have to sync in all appts and contacts first prior to flashing rom. There is a SD backup program in my program list; wonder if this is useful to back up the programs?

Cheers

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] sheran_g:
The SD Backup utility will back everything up onto your SD Card. I can't say that I've tried it, but I use Pocket Backup from Sprite Software. It's got some really great features including a Self Extracting backup file. One click and all your data is restored!

Hello folks and many thanks for the information.

I am trying to copy a ROm from a friend's XDA and we both have the 5.15 bootloader. I have tried your method where I have a SD card but not a card reader. Pressing the Power button and doing a soft reset tokk me to the bootloader page and pressing the "contacts" button allowed me to writ the CE Rom to the SD card :P

Now, I am unable to write this to my device :(

I have inserted the SD card into my device and have done a soft reset, nothing happened, Indeed, I was asked if I want to format the SD card to make it useable!

I have pressed the power button and done a soft reset, took me to the bootloader start page but then nothing happened :cry:

What am I supposed to do to get the already written ROm (on my SD card) to my unit?

Thanks in advance
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] sheran_g:
Did you go ahead and format the SD Card? If so, you will have to dump your friend's ROM back again onto the SD Card and repeat the process.

Can't Boot Now

Seems like you overwrote your bootloader. Not sure why you did this. You only needed to write the OS to ROM. Not good news but it seems as though you have a pretty cool paperweight now.

Qman, your post meantioned writing both CE and Boot, why was this? Thought only the CE needed to be written according to above instructions and other websites.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
The CE+Boot makes your SD bootable without it you're unable to boot from the SD. Since he didn't have a PC SD reader that was the best way to upgrade his OS besides going the .exe route. I have used this method more than once without incident.

As far as only needing CE this is in regards to using XDARit to write to PC and back to SD since the bootloader is added automatically writing to SD.

It appears now that XDARit maybe his only option to correct the incorrect check sum and in getting is XDA back online.

Does anyone have the T Mobile USA Pocket PC Phone Edition's ROM available to e mail me?

Upgrading via sd

I have successfully backed up my rom to sd and used the xda rom image tool to pull the backup off the sd card. Now when I go to write an image to the sd card the image tool tells me that the sd card is not a removable disk and will probably erase a hard drive. I have verified that it is the sd card that's its trying to write to but it comes back and tells me unable to write to disk. Any ideas? The sd card is formatted and windows will let me see it.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] wbalzer:
XDARit seems to work OK when the HARD Drives have single visable partitions. If you have multiple physical drives with single partitions, would probably work ok as well. (Not Sure). I think it gets messed up with the Logical Drives. I think this is how my system looks at my drives when I have 4 logical drives on my Main Drive and 2 logical Drives on my Firewire.

Physical Logical

------------- ---------

HardDisk 0 = 0 1 2 3

HardDisk 1 = 4 5

CD 2 = 6

MemStick 3 = 7

SD 4 = 8

My SD is the physical Device 4. When I used XDARit it killed my Logical Device 4 which was my Firewire. This is what appears to have happened. The programmer who wrote XDARit might be able to give more (better) insight to the problem.

Putting XDRit on a different system that only had a C drive and 2 CDRoms worked flawlessly.

I cracked my LCD recently on my T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone Edition and was looking around for a parts supplier...having no luck I called T-Mobile to order the part....instead of offering me the part, they said I can swap my Pocket PC for a brand new one for $70! That had to be cheaper than an LCD to I opted for it. They give you a postage paid box to return the old one and it has to be returned within 7 days but hey $70 vs. $500!

So I flashed the stock JB ROM for the AT&T variant. Now, whenever I try to do pretty much anything I get a popup saying "Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped." I was going to flash back to stock using the stock ROM that's posted in the development forum but the phone also won't go into media sync mode when connected to my computer (it did before flashing).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
Which ROM specifically? There were some that had this issue (one of the Korean and one of the Canadian (e973 based) that were changed for the AT&T version had this issue. When you restored your apps did you restore data too? Several of the ROM's have this issue when data is included. If you restored data, then reflash the ROM and restore the apps without data.

The SnowJB ROM is the most stable 4.x rom that has all critical features (camera, GPS, etc). If you didn't flash it, you may want to give it a try.

Edit: regarding media sync, do you mean MTP? If you can't connect MTP can you connect PC software or Camera (PTP)? If those don't work then download the ROM via wifi. If nothing else, go to original development and download the CM or CFX (SR 14 or 15) roms. They are much smaller than the 4.1.2 ROM's (just under 200MB), so they'll transfer quickly via wifi (or your data plan and won't kill you plan limits, should you go the data plan root). They JB 4.2.2 and work great, but don't have working camera or GPS, so many people can't use them as DD's. They should allow you to connect MTP so you can copy a different 4.1.2 ROM to you device.

Some other tricks that fixed similar issues for others:

1) use a different USB port

2) use a different USB to micro cable

3) reboot PC/Laptop (standard windows fix is to reboot 3 times, to see if it fixes the prob, before calling their helpless desk). I had to do this when I disconnected the phone without switching to charge only. I seem to recall that it took 2 reboots to finally get everything reset, so Windows would recognize the device was connected.
