[Nexus 7 Accessories] silentsacrifice:
These docks for the Kindle Fire are on clearance at many Targets for $17-$30 and you can get them from Warehouse Deals on Amazon for around $20.

With a few modifications to the provided dock replacement, you can use this as a dock for your Nexus 7.

Will post pictures soon... But it comes with two plastic docks to place on top of the clock, one designed for the Kindle Fire and one designed for any tablet. The problem is the one designed for any tablet makes the cords for audio and microusb come out of the back the clock, instead of being secured to the dock. By drilling into the alternative dock and securing the audio and microusb cable, you can dock the Nexus 7 standing up vertically.

I'll post pictures soon!

In relation to the message sent envelope stuck on the top of the screen. If you close down the inbox application before the message sent indication is received it is stuck there until you do a soft reset. its a glitch in the software.

Steve
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] djwhyte:
I found the envelope is caused by SPB's Pocket Plus closing the Inbox application. PP has a feature where the close button actually shuts down the application as opposed to minimising it in the case of deafult WM2003 behaviour.

Dave
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
yeah i had issues with plus terminating my applications too

i set it to minimize like default and use

PHM task manager

when i want to really close applications

it's a close of the task manager in windows and it's free

great stuff people!! thanks for your help, funnily nough i do have pocket plus installed!!! ill have to have a play with it

Hello, I've got an S3 from Bell Canada earlier this week.

I followed a tutorial here: How to Root U.S. and Canada Galaxy S3 AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint/US Ceullar! [Fail-Proof][Noob-Proof] to root it, all went great! (wont let me post the actual link yet, but that was the name of the article)

I'm trying to put task650's 4.2.2 build on but it failed, so i recovered from my backup.. worked great!

When i researched my error it indicated i may have an outdated CWRecovery in stalled. I've got 5.5.0.4.. When i check the clockworkmod website it says the latest version is 6.0.3.1.. awesome.

This is where i'm hitting a wall. I see the .img file there, but i cant find a .tar file to use to flash my phone with Odin.

I've installed ROM MANAGER (even bought the full version) but it's behaving as if i dont have a recovery mod installed.. even though i do. When i go through the 'install' options in ROM MANAGER it only lists the metroPCS version of the S3.. where I need the ATT version.

So that's where i'm at. i *think* i need to find 6.0.3.1 for an SGH-i747m in tar format. i've been googling and searching forums but i'm coming up empty. This is my first android device and it's a week old.. everything i've done i've learned this week so please forgive me if i'm missing the obvious here.

thanks in advance

If I was you, I'd just forget CWM and install TWRP. Install goomanager from the play store, open it up, hit the menu button and select to install an open recovery script. Voilà, you have TWRP recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Another choice is download andromizer from play store and then download the .img file. Next use andromizer to make a flashable recovery and now you have a flashable CWM....or use the goomanager method above. I prefer TWRP anyway but if you want CWM what I stated works well.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
If you go with twrp, remember to make a backup as your cwm backup will no longer be of use to you anymore.

If you decide to remain on cwm, there is a recovery flashable touch version 6.0.3.1 in the link in my signature. At the bottom of post #2. Boot into recovery, flash zip, advanced > reboot recovery
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] itrunner:
I just tried both, the TWM fails with an MD5 checksum error before it even reboots (right after the download)

When i try your 6.0.3.1 file i get the following:

"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2att" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2att" e:Error in /sdcard/CWMTouch-recovery_ATT-6.0.3.1.zip (Status 7) Installation Aborted

:silly:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
By "both" do you mean both cwm flashable zips in that post or did you mean you tried flashing a cwm one AND a twrp one?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] itrunner:
Hey xBeerdroidDx,

My exact steps were:

1.) Tried TWRP (seen his reply before yours) it failed the checksum on the download.

2.) Seen your post, copied over the 6.0.3.1 zip file of yours, booted to recovery and tried to install. Got the error i posted above... rebooted.

3.) Tried TWRP again, went successful this time.

I think i still have something wonky.. ROM MANAGER still says i have no recovery installed, and if I go back into GOOMANAGER it's behaving as if i didnt install a recovery yet either.. even though it just did.

I did make a backup using TWRP as soon as it was installed.. i'm not brave enough to try the 4.2.2 yet as it seems something is still screwy. or i'm just being overly paranoid
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
If you booted into twrp and were able to perform a successful backup then you're all set.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Here's a copy of 6.0.3.1 touch i just made. Try it

Goomanager will always install recvoery if you try to....you are using ROM manager or Goo manager to actually install install the rom's are you ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] itrunner:
That was my plan, but before ROM MANAGER wouldn't let me do anything as it kept saying i didn't have a recovery installed (which it still does).

Am i pretty safe to try applying my 4.2.2 ROM on there at this point? I've done 2 backups just to be safe hah
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Do not use an app to flash a ROM. Always boot into recovery to flash them.

Make sure you do a complete wipe and flash in the recovery as well.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] itrunner:
I've Solved this!!

1.) Root Toolbox to change build.prop's ro.device from d2can to d2att

2.) Rom Manager, download and apply Clockwork Recover , downloaded and applied 6.0.3.1

3.) Boot to recovery.. BACKUP to internal memory, BACKUP #2 to external SD (paranoid)

4.) Wipe system, Wipe Cache, Wipe Davlink

5.) Applied my custom Rom with success

Hi.

Since many of us have some difficult to take some good quality photos please share your experience with your phone. You can upload photos and wrote about which options you chosen.

I'll share mine when i have time... :p

Cheers.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hung.ngomanh:
The camera quality depends on the ROM also, i think :)

IMO, Aurora v4 has a good camera even if in the low-light condition, but the shutter speed is not faster than v5.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
You can't be serious.

You can do better photos and videos videos with official 2.2 (Froyo) than with Aurora, and I'm not being sarcastic. Its the honest truth. Test it! I did!

For me this is a key point when chosing a rom as I often need to take photos and videos with some quality.

I rather have batery drains, low speed etc etc but have good quality photos and videos and Aurora is a complete disgrace in this field.

At the moment theres no better and stable than MIUI V4.

Good quality photo, specially outside that are just excellent and great 720p videos, without being blury, pixelized and without FREEZES!

If you want good quality cam, then MIUI V4 is the best choice so far this is not questionable.

Some might say the libs from MIUI are the same from Aurora etc etc. This is just Bla bla bla from people that didn't even tested nor compared both, because if they did they would see differences, Huge differences
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hung.ngomanh:
No, exactly the same !!!

Tell me what's version of MIUI v4 you were mentioned !
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
my version of MIUI V4 PT 2.12.21

test it and put here the photos taken with the diferent roms

I want to see if they are exactly the same....
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dark_vader:
Did anyone change camera options? Specifically these ones: "Sharpness" and "Focus mode".
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
Off course.

But photos are just not vivid. Something is not right there
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hung.ngomanh:
No, no need to test, the same !!

I also hope they are not the same, hope MIUI camera get better than Aurora, but ....:angel:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
Ok keep the bicycle
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
Today I went to the park with the kids and took 2 backups with me, one for Aurora and one for Miui.

I have made a lot o photos with both roms testing lots of settings and 3 cam apps (native, cam360 and huawei cam).

Miui took beautiful and vivid photos while photos with Aurora where very clear look like the sun was immediately in front.

But one significant detail was, my son had a white hat and with Aurora the hat got a bluish tone looking like it's getting extreme white balance. If you understand about photos more white balancing the bluish the photo becomes.

Even reducing the white balancing the photos gets very dark.

Clear conclusion that is the libs are the same something is influencing a lot the quality of Aurora photos and it's a pleasure watch the outdoor photos and videos made with miui ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dark_vader:
But is not possible we can change libs from one to another and then MIUI options can port to Aurora? Still both of them should have same quality i think...

MIUI V4 PHOTOS

[URL=http://imageshack.us/photos/my-images/836/img20130427114138.jpg/]

Taken with the exact same specs.

Se the vivid and REAL colours of MIUI photos and see the extreme exposure + more dark colours of Aurora.

See the hat of the kid...

If you can't see the differences don't know what more can I do.

We can't contest true facts friend.

Now, I do believe that libs from MIUI are the same as Aurora but why the 8 to 80 difference?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hung.ngomanh:
Wow, love the kute baby :o

The exposure value seems to be changed by the light direction of your position. I'm not a photographer, just it's my experience.

Camera lib in aurora v5 seems to has some problem i thinks, it isn't good at the exposure capture (in auto mode), sometime it becomes crazy @@. And in this case, camera lib in Aurora v4 has done perfectly. I don't know dzo he has noticed about that or not, but i don't want to push him, he has alot work for other things. No big deal, it's enough for our phone.

And one more time, IMO, nothing difference bettwen Aurora vs MIUI v4 about camera libs.:cowboy:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
O.M.G.......
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dark_vader:
Too much bright on Aurora photo you can see in park bench wood isn't brown. In MIUI photos have real color. Quality is same or both just some config on how camera holds contrast and brightness better on MIUI.

But MIUI v4 use libs from Aurora version 4 or 5?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
not just the bench, see the baby hat is kinda blue tone....

these were photos taken with EXACT SAME SPECS with both rooms.

If you reduce brightness on Aurora than the Photos start to get very dark.

I have made all the possible combinations and just cant get the same output as MIUI.

So you can have na Idea, I have 2 batteries and I depleted both in aprox 2hours reboots, restire downlodas, vídeos, photos etc etc...

something is messing the photo output of Aurora and this what makes me completly crazy for not being able to use the rom.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dark_vader:
Yes! The hat is some blue lines :eek:

I love to test MIUI but unfortunately i don't have my phone is in service. And i think your MIUI V4 doesn't work on my u8800 because of atmel has i previous tried.

Hope dzo read this thread and do something changes on his rom.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
Just flash normal Miui v4, from Miui PT for example. That will work in your device.

Mine won't work because the changes I have made mess with atmel screens;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
This morning I printed the media_profiles.xlm file, located in

/system/etc of both roms and confirm many differences between them.

Then I restore a Aurora backup and replaced this file with Miui and rebooted.

Made no difference at all and photo still come out extra white making it bluish looking.

Tried to decrease the white balance by -1 point and increase the saturation but the photos are bad the same way.

I do notice one thing intriguing. I would like you to test it to.

You need to pay attention to this, In Aurora note than when execute the cam app, immediately it starts the image is great but suddenly changes to that extra white and bluish tone. This happens on starting the app and in a fraction of a second. You need to pay attention!

I'm 99% sure that some setting in the system gets affected resulting in this change, and here lies the issue.

This doesn't happen in Miui.

I honestly think this is it, and worth looking after it specially if something can be done to correct this behaviour.

If the system gets changed this way, something acts different between these roms, causing conflict without causing error on Aurora.

Imagine this situation, look like each Rom uses a different colour pallet and colour spectrum, obviously resulting in photos with different colour schemes. Understand what I mean!

This is it for sure!!

Can you guys check these situations and can the devs look to please. Aurora could be even better!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hung.ngomanh:
Hi,

I think Aurora v5 has the problem with the Exposure value (Iso:Auto and Scene Mode: Auto).

Did you check this in Aurora version 4 ?

Thanks for you post.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
Yes I have both those values in Auto.

Do you noticed this?

You need to pay attention to this, In Aurora note than when execute the cam app, immediately it starts the image is great but suddenly changes to that extra white and bluish tone. This happens on starting the app and in a fraction of a second. You need to pay attention!

Because this is it.

Something is causing this and thats it. I'm sure just don't know what the hell could be as I don't understand about developing
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hung.ngomanh:
That's the Exposure values problem i think, the same as you, i'm not a dev and don't understand about the camera libs, but i can notice the diference between the camera v4 and v5.

The camera libs in v4 makes the camera capture the image with the great exposure even in the low light condition when all modes set to Auto (ISO,Scene Mode). But the shutter speed is slower than v5.

If the camera options do Auto in all modes (Iso, Scene), i think the camera v4 has done perfectly, especially on the low light condition.

If you want take a good pic in the low light condition with camera v5, you must set ISO = Auto (HJR) or set the Scene Mode = Beach.

I've reported this issue when the v5 was being released: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33802125#post33802125 take a look at #7548
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
well m8,

I won't lose anymore time with this subject which in the end I was just trying to help making better somehting that is already quite good.

Things are how they need to be.

I have reported, aparently you did to, and I'm sure others also, and nothing was done.

If the Dev of this rom don't pay attention to our reports or if he just don't want to improve or correct their work theres nothing I can do.

MIUI V4 is simply the best rom out there and only lacks on speed, making it a lot slower than Aurora.

A rom for me as to be more than just a F1 car, and I rather MIUI one thousand times over Aurora that in my oppiniuon is an F1 car but completly striped and naked.

Looks like CM10 has the same cam issues and Dev already aware about it and hope he can do something to correct.
