[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knightbird68:
Hello all.

I know there are several threads on this, but I just wanted to ask a couple questions while i search, Hopefully someone, maybe a dev or two, will have some ideas..

Since the GT2 has no physical buttons on the face, and it's difficult to install it into a dash unless you leave a mechanism for pressing the screen wake and volume buttons, I have the following questions:

1) is it possible to make the Galaxy Tab wake when powered by external source (not battery), such as plugging it into the charger?

2) is it possible to have the screen fall asleep only when external power has been removed? (Such as turning off the ignition which kills power to the charger) That way when the car is turned off, it will go to sleep mode till the car is turned on again.

3) What is the fastest booting rom? ( never hurts to ask)

4) is there a way to completely disable the lockscreen, so when it does make the screen turn on, it is at the desktop?

That should do it for now. I am very interested in this project, and am acquiring parts to do it. I just need to know if i have to create a pushbutton setup in the top of my dash or not...I'd prefer not to.

Any info is greatly appreciated!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knightbird68:
I am checking out Tasker and a few other items i found in another post.. I like the idea of moving the power button too... If i do it, i will post pics.

Still searching,..
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firewater Burns:
Tasker works well for all the issues you brought up. As well as put the Tab into low power mode (screen off & hibernate) if you have a battery drain app that will turn off all non-essential apps. To access the power button, I bent a paperclip into a hook of sorts and it works well.

Here is an install thread for a C6 Corvette that should help:

forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-corvette-general-discussion/3203999-android-7-tablet-install-in-a-c6.html

ATM I am looking for a volume booster like Volume+ that will work on the Tab 2 with CyanogenMod 10.1.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knightbird68:
Thanks for the link Firewater...I tried Tasker.. not sure why, but it didn't seem to work well for me. I just downloaded Caffine and it seems to be doing exactly what i wanted.

As for the paperclip, I will attempt something a little more "professional" looking to mount in the dash....

I may be doing a hand-laid Fiberglass custom dash for this project. I will keep updated here on what i end up doing and will start a thread when the time is right. :)

Though, I am still waiting for a Dev to chime in saying "Hey, those options are in my kernel..." lol
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnesk9:
I recently installed my galaxy tab 2 into my car and I can tell you that numbers 1 2 and 4 are certainly possible.

In my case, my cigarette lighters never turn off. Even when there is no power in the car on the lighters still work. So I had to have someone wire one of them to the ignition.

1 I use tasker to power the screen on, launch poweramp and enable bluetooth when the car is turned on. I already set it in the developer options to not turn the screen off when charging so that wasn't a problem.

2 When it loses a charge (when I turn off the car) It kills poweramp, copilot GPS, turns off bluetooth and turns off the screen

3 I'm using paranoid android 2.52 and it takes about 30 seconds to boot

4. It's pretty easy to disable the lockscreen, its in the settings under security. Just change the screen lock to none.

One thing I would like to know is if there is a way to power on the tab 2 when it receives power. For instance my gsII and HP touchpad power on a few seconds after a charger is connected to them if they are powered off
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrea77:
This is also an idea i have playing around with in my head. Currently i have a 2000 Chevy Impala and my 7" Tab 2 fits perfect in the stock stereo area. i do use it and my ipod to listen to music thru a cheap iSimple FM modulator that I bought thru Amazon.....i just havent mustered up the balls to actually install it as a head unit. Heres a few links to some installs i found online...maybe they can help a bit.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrea77:
ya i had to take it off to install the fm modulator behind the stick stereo.....its just one ginormous piece! lol

as soon as i can figure out how to make a mount or nice dock so that it looks clean in there ill install the stock stereo in the trunk with a special wiring harness and us an EQ for volume control with the tablet. i have it all planned out,......im just lazy. :silly:

Re: I need your thoughts - The Ultimate HOX ToolBox

1. Definitely you should do it! (although there is toolkit which can unlock bootloader and flash a recovery already) More advanced features would be welcome!

2. A few things:

Maybe fetch a RUU automatically based on main version from

BugsyLawson's server

or

ruu.androidfiles.org and automatically install it.

A tool that fetches a firmware zip based on cid and flashes it.

Adb shell

Boot repacker

3. NoobKit-9000

Glad you feel this way

- Communicating with servers and downloading is a tricky thing, they would have to work with me for this

if I get enough help from them , I Would deferentially do it.

but at the very least I will include a guide that will tell you the exact name of the RUU/Firmware that needs to be downloaded (maybe even search for it) :)

- adb shell .... Will Do :good:

- boot Repacker ... I have to do some more reading about this, but I think I can do it :good:

Re: I need your thoughts - The Ultimate HOX ToolBox

Like the idea of a nice clean tool.

I haven't felt the need to root or flash yet, but as there is no s-off yet the process seems slightly more involved than it was for my old Desire, so it is a bit off putting. If there are tools that can help - will use them.

I know that sounds noobish - and it is :)

-"Live stats" would be great, showing instant info about cpu cores in use and freq, battery % and mA flow, ram usage, live logcat + kmesg, gpu freq...

-A good file explorer that allows to edit files "on the fly"

What do you think? want more ideas?
[HTC One X] Maher88:
I Will definitely Try to include every feature I can with time

I have a lot of reading to do, but if it is possible then I'll do it, even if not in the first release, I WILL try to include everything as future versions build up

Thank you, and if you have any other useful ideas, why not :)
[HTC One X] herbie13:
Re: I need your thoughts - The Ultimate HOX ToolBox

Great idea, I initially used a toolkit when first flashing mine but it's nice to know what your actually doing to your phone and I have since learnt all the commands. So my request is to somehow show the user what your automating so they understand what's going on with their phone. Maybe like a log/command type window that can be shown or hidden for those that want to see what's happening.

Cheers

I have a GS2 and battery life when WIMAX is on is horrible as everyone knows.

It seems as though battery life with the integrated LTE chip on the GS3 is much better.

Are you able to leave on LTE as compared to selective switching and still be able to make it through a day without charging?

This would be my main reason for upgrading to the S3/S4 rather than the additional cores, display, etc.

If I won't be able to make it through a day with LTE on I mise well just stay with the GS2. Thanks for your experiences.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdelano:
Thankfully LTE is very easy on the battery (in my situation) and I don't have a strong signal.

I was worried about this as well; but its be a welcome surprise.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tripleoptic:
Gotcha, glad to hear. I don't believe LTE blankets my entire area yet but it has a good presence. Internet speed in relation to battery life would be my main reason for upgrading.

I guess I should have 14 days to figure it out anyways.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Yup, from what I've heard (no lte yet in my area), LTE is practically like being connected to wifi

Lol there's not even a toggle to turn it off or on, you just choose to always leave it on or only use 3G
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
I never turn on WiFi, and I never turn off LTE. I also leave GPS on at all times.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OdlG26:
Hi guys,

I'm trying to install a jellybean ROM on the DHD of my girlfriend (running CM10.1 on my HTC legend and ainol aurora 2 succesfully). I unlocked the bootloader (S-ON, hboot 2.00.0029) and installed CWM 5.0.1.8. After flashing several JB-ROMs (previously factory reset) I always stuck at the htc bootlogo. the phone seems to load forever. I already read about flashing boot.img, if the bootloader is s-on. But I couldn't find any boot.imgs here in the JB threads. Can you please recommend me a suitable boot.img?

pardon my english, it's not my mothertongue.

Regards

OdlG
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramdesai:
Re: DHD sticks on bootlogo

You will find the boot.img file inside the rom you downloaded. Just extract the rom and you will find the file and flash using fastboot.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OdlG26:
:good::good::good:

Thanks for this answer. it works now! i installed aokp from 31 march 2013 after flashing the included boot.img and the phone started up :) first boot took about a minute, now its very smooth, i also overclocked it from 1024 to 1401 MHz :)

Thanks a lot!

I change "My network card connects to "the internet" from "work.

Suggestions?

San Disk will not help as they "do not support the MDA II".

Hello there,

I have been using stock rom for three days with certain mods and so far I like it a lot.

Just wanted to let you know about the possible mods you can find to empower the stock rom :

1. Advanced power menu

2. Battery percentage

3. Centre clock

4. T9dialer

5. Sms with quick reply from CM or other Roms works fine

6. Customised tiles with quick pulling (kevdliu mod)

You won't find mods for:

Volume wake (but you can buy pgm app for that)

Screenlock targets

Navigation bar targets (just Google search)

So far I am enjoying stock rom. Maybe I will keep using it.

However this post is a sign of personal gratitude to all users here that share their knowledge and make the stock rom a pleasant software for daily use. At least for me.

Cheers

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
I'm not 100% sure since I havent done this on the Galaxy Nexus. But there is a file in /system/usr/keylayout/ that handles the hardware button actions. On my Verizon Nexus using CM10.1, the file is called "tuna-gpio-keypad.kl". In that file there will be three lines for the three buttons. VOLUME_DOWN, VOLUME_UP, and POWER. I'm not sure what the stock file has in it but if there is no "WAKE" after the volume buttons, putting it there should allow the volume wake option. Power should have WAKE after it already. This is all just in theory though. I used to mess with my hardware button controls with my old device. Havent done anything with the Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albsat:
Well the wake word is there for both volume up, down and power. I think it is done on framework file.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JPBeard21:
These are all great mods I've used on any stock ROM I tried. Two mods kept me going to custom ROMs, volume keys to skip music tracks while screen off and no theme engine support. If I could get those two into the mix, I might consider a stock ROM again lol.

Maybe you could deodex, add T9 dialer, then use the Odex Me app. Not sure it would work. It may break things.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JPBeard21:
Here's an odexed T9 dialer I just made. I'm not on stock so I couldn't test. Recommend to make a backup of your contacts.apk and contacts.odex just in case of issues. Nandroid recommended as well. Please report if it works or has any issues.

https://www.box.com/s/8oi3aw0oio0nuf109sa7
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JPBeard21:
If anyone on stock tries this, if you could verify contacts.apk and contacts.odex were placed in /system/app and permissions were set correctly, then it should be working unless something went wrong with the odexing, but I received no errors and removed the .dex file from the .apk. Any feedback is appreciated. This can be flashed via CWM/TWRP or if you are rooted, you can extract the contacts.apk and contacts.odex and copy them to /system/app and set permissions rw-r--r--. Remember to backup your existing files first or rename them by adding .bak to the filename. After copying the files, a reboot is needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] forever_lol:
Permissions are set automatically after flashing. Still no go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JPBeard21:
Yeah, I had that in the script but was just making sure it flashed properly. I have another T9 Dialer apk I could try if you would like to try it. It could be a signature error, I dunno.

---------- Post added at 02:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 AM ----------

It shouldn't be a signature issue being a system app, either a bad apk or maybe a dependency issue? Here's a working T9 dialer from my ROM I just odexed.

Unfortunately it didn't do the trick either. But thanks again for your efforts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JPBeard21:
Sorry it didn't work, not sure why it wouldn't. One last thing you could try is after flashing, try clearing cache and dalvik. Still learning how it all works with odexed vs deodexed but it could be the issue.

I could get root in shell but would not give me root to push files. Still new to the techy part of android. Been trying to learn the hard way so I can understand how it works. With factory images I have been fastboot flashing each file but just recently started using the flash all just cause it's faster. Don't like the tool kits as I don't learn much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] forever_lol:
IF you wanto to push files via adb u must first mount the partition. I don't remember the exact command, but try to search "mount -rw"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Exactly, like forever_lol said, you need to remount /system readwrite, achievable by the mount command/root permissions. iLike Linux.

Just issuing 'mount' on a terminal emulator or through adb shell/su, will give an output about the partitions currently mounted (and where are they mounted);

So:

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/system /system

If you've got an insecure ramdisk, you can also issue the following, which also gets you a rw /system:

adb remount
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JPBeard21:
I haven't odexed this for you as I saw you over in the JBSourcery thread and figured you'd moved on from stock. If you go stock and still want it, I can try but the last T9 dialer apks I odexed didn't work for some reason. I haven't been stock from day one and don't plan to so I can't test them. Maybe I'll play around on stock one day but I already know it'll just frustrate me lol. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tshelby73:
Not big deal. On stock right now just been using ROM manager to boot into recovery. If I can get jbs Bluetooth to work right I'll be off stock. Bluetooth keeps making me go back to stock as I need it to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JPBeard21:
Well it seems like you're going between 4.1 and 4.2 so if you find the mod you're looking for, for your build version, send me the link and I'll odex it for you. Only takes a couple minutes.

This issue you're having with Bluetooth has me wondering if its possible to somehow revert the Bluetooth stack/drivers on a 4.2 ROM back to the 4.1 stack/drivers. I'm sure someone else must've tried but I'm curious if it would even work or what else might prevent it from working. Something to look into when I've got more time.

Thanks for the ROM. I have been using it for a week and quite happy with it! Thanks.

I have following issues and would be great it they could be fixed:

1. When I charge the phone, the message is No SIM instead of actual % of battery

2. The free RAM is quite low and many times it just becomes 0.0 Kb free.

None of them big issues, but, fixing these would just make the ROM rock even more. :)
