I followed the instructions from both of the threads, but I keep running into the same problem. My device is not listed among the drivers to install, I scrolled to the right on each one just to make sure it was not part of a group. Before I got this reply I followed the tutorial basically the flashtool for dummies like myself and down loaded the correct firmware for my device. I followed the instructions to run the flashtool selected my firmware started the flash tool, it told me to hold volume down while plugging in the phone just like I would with pc companion and probably 3 secs after plugging it in the only thing that would happen is I would get the usual windows prompt that "the device is not recognized" I thought for sure this was the solution, perhaps I am missing a step? I am officially at a loss now lol I even went to the threads specific to the ion lt28at and it was all quite simple right up until plugging in, any more insight would be greatly appreciated.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ejhanson:
I appreciate the link but that was basically instructions on how to start the flash tool properly it seems, I still can't get the flash tool to recognize it is plugged in. I believe the issue is with the device driver, problem is the ION lt28 is not in the list of drivers. Is there another one that I am supposed to use that is compatible? I thought it had to be specifically for my device, again I appreciate all the help you all are giving me this is becoming a frustrating process for what seems so simple
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AlinTheron:
Try Flashtool-drivers [ do a googole search ] download it and see if you can find the drivers there.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jtr165:
I know this is over a month old, so i'm sure the info is no longer helpful...but this 'driver' issue has plagued Ion owners since the phone released...

in reality...its not a problem...but just 50 members all sort of saying the same thing in different words...

the Lt28 series of devices does NOT need any model specific driver from that install_drivers.exe app in flashtool's directory...You ONLY have to install the flash mode driver (for an Ion with a locked boot loader) or flash mode and fast boot drivers for unlocked bootloaders, if you play on using fastboot with flashtool for various services...

you DO NOT need to install that entire list of drivers for an Ion...they have nothing to do with this series of phone...all other necessary device drivers are automatically installed when setting up PC companion, or simply plugging in the phone (if you skip pc companion)...

any issue with flash tool and it saying 'device drivers not found'...you're missing the flash mode driver...and nothing else...

I've seen loads of posts where people want to replace the sense camera app with the latest jb one etc.

What I'm asking is if its possible to use the ics sense camera app in jellybean.?

I don't like sense based roms and love the pure stock experience but the stock camera sucks.

I always go back to an ics sense rom so I can use coolexe's camera mod as the picture results are superb.

I'm not bothered about 3d I just want to be able to take decent pics.
[HTC EVO 3D] kevin130:
Nope. You need the Sense framework i believe.

So I did a fresh install of a tw rom and its saying I have used 5.4 gb Ive factory rest like 3 times already ... whats the deal thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hellstyrant:
Your system and recovery partitions use a portion of the 16gb that the phone has. Kind of like if you do a fresh install of Windows on you PC, the system files take up part of the hard drive. There's no real way around that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xxjrsmith3xx:
nothing. This is a fresh install and I deleted everything and I'm using 5.4 GB....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
Are you saying the device shows total available internal memory to be ~9GB? If that is the case, that's the way it is with the way it's partitioned. If you mean there's 5.4GB missing out of the ~9GB it's supposed to have, then there's a problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kid Poker:

OK it says I have 9.62 GB then out of those I have 3.95 GB left to use but under what I'm using I'm only using about 1gb or less 900mb why is it saying I'm using about 5.4 GB I connect it to my PC I look under all the folders nothing in them plus fresh install factory rest 2 times. ....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
If you are using CWM and have made a backup (or two) check /data/media/clockwork. It's the root of the phone, not of the internal memory partition or SD card.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xxjrsmith3xx:
I have but on my SD card let me go check .... Sorry guy might even be my own fault thanks though.

The screen is OLED, not LCD so all black in OLED is "no power" to pixels. This the opposite of LCD where the pixels are all on and are blocking the backlight. There is no backlight in OLED, the pixels themselves are lit. That is why OLED is blacker, but LCD can be made brighter - in general.

Hello everybody,

I am new to Android and web development in general. Recently Igot into a situation that is hard to figure out. I hope your professional advice can help me to solve the problem. A couple of months ago I realized that software dvelopment is a great way to earn money online. Making applications seemed to me the best way to have passive income streams bringing me cash from ads right into the pocket. I tried to code but it turned out to be so completely foreign to my mind and my nature, that I simply could not proceed.

Then, I decided to look for a company that actually develops software and knows how to do it. I found one company that looked legit and so we started working together. They created an app, implemented the ads and I uploaded it on the Android Market. It got really popular and I was so glad!

However, in a couple of months I noticed there was a new app that was EXACTLY like mine and it literally was stealling potential users that would choose MY app. I tried to contact the person but he said he had created the application before me. WTF! I saw he uploaded it AFTER I did.

What should I do? I see his app is increasing in downloads while mine is decreasing. :rolleyes:

Welcome to the world of application development. Unless he literally stole your code, there really isn't much you can do about it.

Thank you for your reply. Not many replied in my thread so I paticulary appreciate al the feedback I get :)

Is there a way to write an identical app ising a different code? I don't know about it.

Or, another qustion. Suppose he downloaded my app. How can he actually edit it? Does he use some sort of software? I was told, the apk file is like an archive that one can unzip and zip back again. But how would he do it, I wonder?

May be you are right and we are working with the same company although it's hard to imagine. There are thousands of companies in the world adn how in the world would we "meet" at one company? Here is thier website, by the way, may be it will help you to answer my questions --> a1qa website

May be you know better, I am a noob at software development, and I realize it.
[General Topics] niranjan94:
You can easily unzip an apk file by using any Archive manager like WInZip, WinRAR , or 7-zip ... But can't actually make great changes like that ... But there is something called as Decompiling an apk, .. which will actually compiled the compiled java classes.dex file into .smali files... Now .. you can easily do some basic or sometimes even advanced changes to the app ... like for example .. you can change the app name by simply editing the string.xml in the res folder... then again recompile it into an apk and redistribute under a different name .. it's quite possible ... If you want to reduce the risk of such problems ... i'd recommend you have a look at ProGuard.
[General Topics] syung:
It is possible that someone can decompile your apk and read your source code if they had enough time and resources. If you are worried about such things you might have to begin using other techniques such as code obfuscation or encrypted compilers to protect your source code. And yes, it is possible to have two program do the same thing but have different source code to do it. Although there might be some parts that are the same, how you write you code will be different than how they write it.

You should be aware that making a lawsuit will cost you more money than you earned and if somebody makes something that does the same thing as you ddid, that still does not mean that they have stolen something from you. Jeez, how can somebody who hosts apps not know this, are you teenager or something?

Yes, in programming, it is possible to write programs in 50 different ways and do the same thing.

You cannot copyright ideas, only source code and functions...unless you are apple of course. They can copyright rectangular shapes.

What you should do? Get his app, and compare it to yours. I dont know if you can access source code in android apps because I dont develop aps yet, but if you can, you should compare his fuctions with yours. If the code is 80% simmilar, it is stolen.

I was wondering if it was feesible to write a program that could transmit serial data over a TCP connection over GPRS? I was planning on connecting COM1 of my XDA II to a microcontroller.

If its all possible, is there any way I can use Visual Studio 2005 Express? I dont have a great deal of money at the moment being a student :/
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mamaich:
You cannot use VS 2005 express. It does not support PocketPC platform. But you can download a free Embedded Visual C++ 4.0 compiler from Microsoft and write such a program. Or you can use eDonkey and download a beta version of VisualStudio 2005.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
Sounds like a hardware problem, could be from replacing your screen. So you might want to go get the screen checked out by someone just to see whether there's a dodgy connecion or anything.

Until then, use LMT Launcher or Pie Controls (same thing really) if they're built into the rom (like many have) to navigate your phone. Not exactly ideal, I know, but that's one of your only options if you don't want to get the hardware checked.

[Java for Android App Development] jacauc:
I have existing Android code that submits a pre-constructed packet over UDP to a hardware device... however, I now need to convert this code to work over TCP instead in order to be more reliable. Currently the code will send the packet to the device, and wait for a predetermined Timeout time for the Device to "answer" back over the same UDP port and to the source IP. The hardware device listens on both UDP and TCP on the same port numbers.

The UDP code looks like this:

serverSocket = new DatagramSocket(ListenPort);
{
DatagramPacket sendPacket = new DatagramPacket(sendData, sendData.length, IPAddressOut);
serverSocket.send(sendPacket);

serverSocket.setSoTimeout(TimeOut);
DatagramPacket receivePacket = new DatagramPacket(receiveData, receiveData.length);
serverSocket.receive(receivePacket);

byte[] tempDataBuf = Arrays.copyOfRange(receiveData, 0, receivePacket.getLength());

MsgReply.ApplyMessageData(tempDataBuf);
System.out.println("RECEIVED: " + MsgReply.toString());
publishProgress(MsgReply.toString().getBytes());
}

Can anyone assist me in converting this code into TCP format?

Appreciate any help!

PS...I asked this question on stackoverflow too, but got no response... heard XDA started a programming forum, so figured I'll give this a bash :)

and

DatagramPacket receivePacket = new DatagramPacket(receiveData, receiveData.length);

and especially this line:

First of all if u are developing an Client application the following code will help U, For server coding its different its not Like UPD.

UDP probably need both server as all client socket to send and receive the data. But in case of TCP, its not necessary to have a Server Socket only client socket is enough for both read and write..

This code create a client tcp socket and allow u to communication to the specific ip and port..

these two lines will probably replaced by the above single line..

But if u for handling TCP socket U need two stream one for reading and other for write data to the stream.

The above two line probably help to construct Input and out Stream for u from that Socket.

There is no necessary for this code here because u directly get the String of data from this stream

This line will read the line of string from the stream.

This line is not must. This line will add the system specific line sperator at the end of the string. Is used this in my application to find the line sperator to avoid some system related problem while finding the line end point..

[MENTION=4966199]CoolMonster[/MENTION]

Thanks again for your time... this is starting to make a lot of sense now!

I'm getting close!

One thing I had in the UDP code was to send a pre constructed byte to the Digi Wifi XBEE box i'm interfacing with. This is "senddata"

Now if I do

out.write(sendData);

I get an error message stating that out.write cannot handle a byte.

I have

private byte[]	sendData	= new byte[1024];

Does this mean that I should send my data in a string format instead of byte?
[Java for Android App Development] jacauc:
[MENTION=4966199]CoolMonster[/MENTION]

More information after some additional research:

Prior to sending my string to the hardware module, I need to send some packets to open the communication channel.

For the UDP packet, this is assembled as follows in Hex:

Command ID: 0x02

Command Options: 0

Frame ID: 0x01

Config Options: 0x02

AT Command: 49 53 (This is the HEX for the AT command I want to send, which translates to "IS" in ascii)

Thus, the packet looks like this in Hex:

02 00 01 02 49 53

Then I will get a Hex result which I am already parsing to make sense of the output.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seriousdav:
Hi everyone,

I have an xperia SP (5302) bought in hongkong, and using it in France with Orange operator.

I'm facing an issue with MMS pictures (before in FW.257 and also now flashed in FW.284)

When I receive an MMS with a photo, the little picture preview inside the MMS thread is fine.

But when I click on it to see it full screen, or when I save it to my albums, the quality is extremely low.

The picture saved weight is only 2,5ko

Basically it seems that the little preview is simply stretched to fit the screen size, and the full size picture is not really downloaded.

Bottom line, the picture is terrible and I trash every message..

Has anyone seen the same problem ?

Is there any patch around from that, a quick search on google, xda, and sony didn't give me anything, for xperia SP at least.

thanks for your feedback and glad to see the XDA community so much alive after all these years.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolaisugly:
Not come across this myself as I don't really send our receive mms.

You could try sending yourself a MMS with a PIC set to HQ and see if this is the same.
