Nice ... as long as you do not drive ..
[Nexus 7 General] msimindlessmsi2:
Works fine when driving. The pins actually make better contact if the tablet is pushed slightly forward, so I bent the vertical part of the bookend to keep it slightly forward. Plus the rubber on the rear of the nexus making contact with it seems to create enough friction to keep it from popping up.

WARNING: Turn down your volume.

[Nexus 7 General] freak4dell:
Good to know this works. I was planning on doing something a bit similar, but slowly building it up to be cleaner in the end. The dock will be an integral part, though.

Do you have any trouble keeping the tablet charged? I know people have no problems if they use one of the recommended chargers from the charger thread, but I wasn't sure if the dock may hinder or slow down charging any.
[Nexus 7 General] drkstr_yu:
Awesome! Thanks man
[Nexus 7 General] msimindlessmsi2:
Well I have it set to keep the screen awake while charging, so it does still drain the battery. It really isn't bad though. Barely goes down. The speed of the charging seems equivalent to charging via usb connection, rather than the wall charger.
[Nexus 7 General] theFleured:
I get really bad sound distortion using the tablet with the dock in the car, did you have the same issues?
[Nexus 7 General] msimindlessmsi2:
Sorry for not responding for so long. I did have a bit at first when going over bumps, but over time it stopped. I think it's because the pins springy-ness calmed down over time. Also, the bookend helps keep the tablet from moving, because the rubber backing of the tablet makes contact with it and keeps it from too much. So over time, this setup has ended up working perfectly.
[Nexus 7 General] gnice18:
I have the same setup. Do you constantly have to enable media output to dock? When I start mine up each time I have to go into the sound settings and fix this.

I Need to reinstall my XDAII but on the given software cd no PPC2003.

Can I download it somewhere?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
why ?

you can just do a hard reset and the xda will be back at default once more

the os is on the rom
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] lummac:
Or download Rom

If you have deleted something, which cannot be repared by a hard reset, you can always do a sort of rom upgrade, because they load the complete version ( I Think), You can find those upgrades on this forum
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Smash:
Well the strange thing;

I use the autoconfig (start-progams-Auto config)

it will reinstall something.

When heb I go to start-settings-menus my 'Explore files' is gone and I have duplicates of Active sync, Inbox, Internet Explorer, Notes, Phone & Tasks.

One of each duplicate has a check. But I cant delete the duplicates..

So I think it's wise to reinstall my PPC b/c a hard reset won't do the trick..
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] AlBaraSoft:
Well, I have an imate. When I upgraded it, the upgrade software format every thing and reinstall (clean) windows. I think there will be some cases where Hardreset is not helpfull enough.

I am porting JB rom from a phone which has similar specs and hardware as my phone I have tried the rom without making any changes to it but I lost my IMEI and network other than that the rom worked fine but the main purpose of the phone was lost. I am looking for a way to make this rom compatible with my phone so that I don't lose my IMEI number and thus the network. Is there any specific folder or file which I need to take care of while porting the rom to my phone, BTW my phone is on ICS and I want to port JB.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lopestom:
This is not true!

I myself have lost the IMEI of my unit. Even in SG appliances in forums here at xda reported loss of IMEI.

It will depend on which it will run (new ROM, Custom ROM, ROM test).

Certainly also depends on the apparatus and specifications ..........

imei lost

is there anything that could provide the easiest way to restore the lost IMEI ...?

I have tried with MTK DROID ROOT & TOOL, but I can not use it.

I am confused with how to back up the "Navigate to the folder with your Droid MTK Boot & Tools Backup and select the MD5 file"

please help me
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lopestom:
In MTK Droid there is a file created by him called md5. This is a signature that the CWM checks each file backup. There are some ways to restore IMEI.

But there is a difference even if the IMEI restoring telephony signal is not shown. So the problem is not only the IMEI.

Therefore, specify if your device is MT6577 or MT6589.

For only the IMEI on xda there are many tutorials explaining how to restore them.
[HTC One S] sdequant:
Hi there!

Im wondering if there exist roms or if there are devs working on a Touchwiz/"Nature UI"-based rom for the HTC One S (S4). I love to change the looks and feel but havent got a budget for switching phones all the time. I dont mean just the launcher, but really the whole package: theme, lockscreen animations, statusbar, specific features and apps,..

Thanks in advance :)
[HTC One S] usaff22:
IMO Touchwiz is absolutely atrocious. It feels bloated and looks very unpleasant. Neither does it comply with Android design guidelines. Samsung doesn't have good designers (if any at all?)

There are no Touchwiz ROMs I know of, but there are launchers and themes for CM10/10.1.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bobthecooldad:
Hi how would i remove the or increase the record limit on the xperia u.

Cyanogenmod with root
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Andrewasth:
What limit are you talking about?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Bangalter89:
How much is the limit? something like 5 minutes?

If it is, and even if it is possible to change, i advise you not to do it.

If a limit is built in, that is for your safety. The camera sensor heats when you're recording, and overheating causes the image to get bad or even ruining the camera. The limit prevents it from overheating.

I've never recorded long videos, so i have not experienced this limit on my xperia p, but this applies to any common camera. In some it might be more noticeable than others.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bobthecooldad:
it normally stops at 7 minutes as it says storage limit hit.

record time
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ravenedge:
the thing that limit your video recording is your storage capacity. free up some memory, put stuff on your pc or thumb drive. I never experienced such things as I always left at least 1gb on the internal memory (not phone memory)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Bangalter89:
Try to free up some space like ravenedge said, so that the cause of this can be determined. And then report here. I'd like to see where this is going
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bobthecooldad:
I know it isnt storage becasue when it stops i can restart it and i have 1gb free always for recording
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Bangalter89:
If you have free space, then it is for your sensor safety, and trust me, you do not want to remove that limit.

Maybe increasing it a little bit more wouldn't hurt much, but not removing it completely.

I can try to find such a value on phone files. That is all i can help you with.

Ask one of the developers. They might be able to help you more with this.

Or try one of the camera mods. Their limit can be set differently from the one you currently have.

I'll post something here if i find anything.

[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
GUYS:

You can flash custom bootloaders, flash recovery, root from recovery and reflash stock bootloaders and kernel afterwards, using xbsall's rebooter tool (if you want it, search it in his v8 rom thread).

OR (and this is better if you want to keep it stock)

You can root using 2nd init recovery, without changing stock bootloaders and kernel.

Just install 2nd init recovery with the attached P940RecoveryInstaller (Thanks to Milaq) (just put in sd card and install it).

Enter 2nd init recovery by pressing VolDown while booting or by pressing key inside the program.

NOTE: flash the attached Root_P920_ICS from recovery to root.

[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
That's odd, never had any error while installing it, and also xbsall uses it in his roms...

In what rom are you?

Try to install it after rebooting the phone.
[LG Optimus 3D] dtbang721:
I have root ics v30a by these steps:

1/ flash wpark v1.25 bootloader

2/ flash twrp recovery (step 1 and 2 by all in one tool)

3/ flash super user by twrp

4/ flash back ics stock bootloader and done

For me now i think i have stock and rooted v30a.

All thinks for 4 steps above can be found in this forum ( all in one tool topic and noob guide for xbsall topic)

Im not sure but when i come from ics port from su760 to stock p920 ics, my touch screen has problems (i have a dead spot that cant touch able at bottom right corner). And flashing freroot v28b from xbsall may be the cause. After a week try to test its hardware or software problem ive found it.

Now i solve touch screen problem by these steps:

1/ flash v21e stock bin posted by xbsall guide and attached.

2/ setup complete stock v21e and make a back up.

3/ flash v30a stock and root as above and the stock screen problem are gone.

I dont know why but if i skip step 2 and flash v30a inmediately and the touch screen problems still there
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
about the second one, did you mean we can install a recovery without rooting the phone? that's never happen before, are you sure this would works?
[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
Well...

Actually you're right.

You must root before installing the 2nd init recovery.

This recovery will, however, allow you to keep stock boot and kernel.

[LG Optimus 3D] Geezer:
Be careful.

When I reverted to the ICS stock bootloader I ended up with

LG Security Error

(and had to flash back the wkparks 1.25a boot & cwm recovery !)

If you want

custom

ROM you need

custom

bootloader.

You MIGHT be OK with stock boot if staying on stock (rooted) ROM...
[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
No, that's not it.

You may have custom rom with stock bootloaders, that's ok.

What's incompatible is stock bootloaders with custom kernels.

You got that security error because you had custom kernel installed.

So, the option is:

1. stock bootloaders and stock kernel

2. if you want custom kernel, you must flash modified bootloaders.
[LG Optimus 3D] Geezer:
Well...80% of custom ROM's have custom kernels these days or/and require modified bootloaders...

[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
Stock bootloaders include stock recovery.

If you want custom recovery (twrp or cwm) you must flash again modified bootloaders.

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 AM ----------

Well, actually most of the existing custom roms come in zip (flashable in recovery) format, and those don't include any bootloaders or kernels.

Only bin or kdz roms come with bootloaders and kernel (for example, xbsall's pre-rooted bins).
[LG Optimus 3D] keith210350:
2nd init or reflash

Thanks for reply. Would installing the 2nd init recovery apk in a previous post do the same as reflashing another bootloader and recovery, or will it only work when wkparks ics bootloader, and gingerbread twrp recovery are flashed first. Cannot see the point of having 2 recoveries though?

Thanks again

Keith
[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
2nd init recovery is a different kind.

It is not installed in recovery partition, it is installed in a folder inside system partition.

That means that you can keep stock bootloaders (and stock recovery), and have a fully working TWRP recovery. It works very well, and it's as easy as installing an app.

The one thing you can't have with that combination is custom kernels. That requires modified bootloaders.
[LG Optimus 3D] keith210350:
Cheeky question

Thanks for excellent reply, I am sure many other info gatherers like myself will find it very useful.

Completely different subject, I have an unusual system icon that appeared after official ICS upgrade. Have researched on xda and tried many other manuals from other manufacturers and even the completely clueless LG support forum, with no luck. It maybe something you may have knowledge of as I think it may be a fail to load system component. It is there after factory resets and sd card wipes. attached pic shows icon

Many thanks for your help so far

Keith
[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
I've never had such problem, but I remember one or two persons here at xda with the same icon. I didn't follow them, so I don't really know what caused that.

I don't think it is serious, it may not have any interference with your usage of the phone, but maybe the solution is reflashing your rom.

Try to search the forum again, maybe I saw that in xbsall's thread, or maybe as a question in the general section, I don't really remember...
[LG Optimus 3D] keith210350:
Thanks for reply. Think i will do a phone recovery from LG and see if it cures problem.

Nail polish remover will never work. Trust me!

The best way is to use motor brake fluid. Apply a very samll amount on a cotton bud and gently massage it over the logo for several seconds.

I didn't try it on my i-mate but it worked perfectly on stuff like pens and watches and the end result was great with no damaging effect on the metal.

VOL down + power

I had problems with installing the recovery as well.

But you might try the AIO toolkit and just install CWM from there.

Recovery wouldn't start on my phone after that either, but I turned my phone off and pressed Volume Down + Power until the screen showed the bootloader again (keeping them pressed somewhere around 10 sec I think). So do not release the buttons, but keep pressing them. Miraculously the recovery than worked (tested with both CWM and TWRP...)

Never installed the CWM as boot.img...
