Could I port a rom designed for Samsung Galaxy Beam GT-i8530 to my Samsung Galaxy Beam GT-i8520 (Note that the first product model ends with 30 and the other ends with 20).

They are different phones and I would like to be able to update the stock Android 2.1 on my i8520 to Android 2.3 or above, preferably with the projector app/function of the i8530.

Both phones have projectors built in, but they are a little different in specs.

can we port 4.2 rom to 4.1.2 with same resolution, cpu & processor ??

plz confirm
[Android Software Development] darkharbinger81:
I doubt that you will be able to get it to load, I've ported cm7,9 and cm10( cm10 requires me to decompile framework.jar add cdma smali files recompile the framework.jar. swap out the baseband libs and edit the build.prop cm7 and cm9 are the easiest for porting as its basically copy and paste cm9 is just baseband and build.prop edits for me to get cdma working it
[Android Software Development] Maveric-Romeo:
Thank you. I'm completely new to this and I'm not sure I really understand porting yet.

can i port 4.1 rom to 4.0 device with same specification ?

Sorry for being late but someone pm'ed me about this thats why answering.

You need the same android version for both the port and the base rom otherwise it will not boot.

You said that you can port from ARMv7 to ARMv7 only. Is it not possible to port ARMv6 to ARMv6?:eek:

Are there any additional steps to be followed if jumping to the next android version aka from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 ?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sidiously:
Hi everyone, I'm hoping for some good advice and opinions on what I should do.

I want to purchase a Galaxy Note II on Verizon and use it on their prepaid service, I would buy the phone outright, but I have been told Verizon's prepaid does not support 4G devices. (Is this true?)

If I still purchase a Verizon Galaxy Note II what other prepaid service could I activate it on, even if I unlock the phone?

Or should I just go buy the Galaxy Note II outright from AT&T and go the SIM/GSM route?

I really do want the phone with Verizon because I believe in the near future they will accept 4G devices on their prepaid service.

THANKS EVERYONE!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cloudnueve:
Try PagePlus since they use 3G and Verizon towers. Finding someone to activate it is another story since it's a 4G phone that is 3G compatible. I recommend just going to Sprint or T-Mobile since they have 4G and your bill will be cheaper than Verizon or AT&T. But again, this is just my opinion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iluciferi:
The vzw version of the note 2 is unlocked and once rooted can be used with just about any carrier. Simple mobile is a good one to try or any tmo based mvno will work. I know with simple I was pulling 15mbs down at times. Just depends if tmos spotty coverage is good enough for your needs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milimbar:
Unless Verizon changes their prepaid options, you will not get anything other than 3G from them. :(

I would get either a VZW Note 2 and go to another GSM prepaid carrier as it is a global phone from the start and will work with any GSM carrier.

Or, get a Note 2 from AT&T and use a GSM prepaid option.

I use a Verizon Note 2 on AT&T prepaid right now.

This is my responses to similar questions in other threads about my experience with connectivity and data speeds on a VZW Note 2 on a GSM network.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sidiously:
I went to the links you provided, but is it absolutely possible to run a Verizon Galaxy Note II on an AT&T prepaid service? Do I need to root the phone? Or just change the APN settings? I am very new to all this, and like I have said I really prefer to buy a VZW Note II

THANKS
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deekayy:
From my experience using my verizon note 2 on t mobile. I was only able to get hspa (sometimes hspa+). It was pretty slow roughly around 2-3mb down and my phone would get really warm.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milimbar:
As i said I am currently using a Verizon Note 2 (SCH-i605) on AT&T prepaid now.

I do not get LTE but I do get HSPA+ (3.5G) of around 4mb/s down and 1.5mb/s up consistently.

I do not have any issues with my phone heating up at all.

For me HSPA+ is plenty fast enough. When I was with Verizon my 3G there would top out at 1mb/s down, it was pretty horrible.

Hi I think My battery drains too fast, so in 8 hours (when i sleep) it gets 20-25 percent lower on standby, is that normal?? Can someone recommend me some rom that is better performance/batterywise?

Also just in case if somebody knows I'm rooted now and want to get back my offical(unmodificated) status without flashing, I read somewhere I have to delete something in system folder, but forgot what.

Thanks

can someone help pls? :(
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anythingbutipod:
your device is just booltloader unlock.. just flash the boot.img from the rom

1. Extract the boot.img from zip rom

2. from your bootloader go to fastboot and plug it to your computer

- make sure you have sdk

3. put the "boot.img" file in your platform-tools, directory is sdk/platform-tools

4. using shift+rightclick open command window and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" disregard the ( " ) sign.

5. wait and then type "fastboot reboot"

your device should boot normally now... hope it helps "newbie here" :fingers-crossed:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] PontifexAlexander:
I have followed lumin30's guide (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1470716) and have successfully rooted my Galaxy S 4G with Super One Click, got Voodoo and CWM with Basic with a Twist and have flashed Valhalla - Black Edition on it.

I would like to an ICS OS flashed onto it as my next step now that I am more comfortable with the process, but even after scouring the Wiki I was left a bit confused about the partition switch.

From where I am at right now would I have to flash CM7 or CM9 onto the device to switch partition types followed by my ICS rom of choice or is it more simple or complicated than that?

Alternatively, are there any advantages to sticking with a GB rom as opposed to a ICS rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pisherthefisher:
Most if not all ICS ROMs have a script that will automatically switch to MTD before flashing. So you can flash any ICS ROM straight from stock gingerbread

The advantages of sticking to gingerbread would be fully working WiFi calling
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
You need to flash from either Blastoff or Basic with a Twist kernel to flash to MTD. Other than that read the OP of the ROM you would like to flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] PontifexAlexander:
My thanks to you both
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Just a note.

You can flash BML -> MTD, but you have to oneclick/heimdall/odin to get back to BML from MTD. I'd like to find a work-around for this.

EDIT: and, don't forget the wiki!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vennesch:
Hi folks! It has been a while since I have been on this forum; and I have a question about how to update from 4.1.2. to 4.2.2.

The process is not quite clear to me. Can I just download the Asus Firmware and flash through existing TWRP recovery (4.1.2 version)? Do I have to flash a kernel and new recovery using fastboot first? I see some step-by-step guides but also a view warnings. It is a littlebit vague to me what to do.Can anyone guide me through the process please?

I am on Hydro 7 but looking to update preferably to another custom 4.2.2. base rom. Tips are welcome
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoinTheRealms:
Best way is to download the firmware from asus website extract it (theres a zip inside the zip) and flash it with twrp, this will get rid of twrp so after the first boot find the approprate version of twrp and reflash it with fastboot, from there you can flash custom roms/ kernels at will

goodluck
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Weaponx525:
I'm not sure if twrp will work. My upgrade path was to use fastboot the official zip from the Asus website, then fastboot twrp. Be careful which version of twrp you fastboot because it will cause a brick. I think twrp-2.5-4.2 should work for the US version for the official blob from the Asus website. For the WW version of the blob I used twrp version 2.4-4.2 successfully. Good luck!

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skluess:
Hi

I'm also still running 4.1.1 on my TF300TG (WW-version).

The bootloader is unlocked with the asus-tool, cwm-recovery (CWM-based recovery v6.0.1.3) flashed with fastboot and the system is rooted with supersu.

Now i want to update to 4.2.1 but it won't work. neither with the SOP for manual update nor from cwm-recovery.

From what i found it should work like this:

- download the 4.2.1 (10.6.2.6) rom file from the asus website

- extract the zip (once)

- open the second zip and open \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

- delete everything except "assert(package_extract_file("blob", "/tmp/blob"), write_raw_image("/tmp/blob", "staging"),delete("/tmp/blob"));

set_progress(1.000000);"

- save file and save the zip

- put zip on sdcard and install from cwm-recovery

can someone tell me, if this is correct? or if i should only flash the blob with fastboot?

any help is appreciated!

thx!

Monitorize mouse global events in WINDOWS-CE;

Hello,

I'm working in VISUAL C++ embedded 3.0. with Windows CE. My goal is to monitorize mouse global events.

By the moment I'm working with a WH_JOURNALRECORD global hook that catches all input global events of the

operating system, basically keyboard and mouse events. But when I catch a mouse event, it only gives me

information about the application that receives this event, and the position (x,y) where the user pushes

in the PDA's screen. I want to know, for example, if the user clicks one option in a menu, so what option

the user clicks, or if it clicks a desktop icon, so i want to know icon's name, and so on.

I want to make a program for windows CE mobile devices, like Smartphones and PocketPCs, and the goal of the

program will be monitorize all mouse global events in order to help the user in his navegation in the system. I

want to make a program like "Narrator.exe" of Windows XP, that processes all mouse events and after a speech

voice synthetizer says the option that the user clicks. Is this possible in Windows CE? Microsoft says that NO,

because in windows ce isn't support COM Architecture due to the specific capabilities of the hardware in the

mobile devices because we are speaking of embedded systems.

So, someone can help me, please?

Thank you very much,

SIncerely,

javitobcn

By The app on the or rather the settings availble in XZ basically only increases the brightness along with the back light , therefoer loosing the clarity and rich colors when in maximum ,

Here is an app which can controll it individually , indoors i like the setting 50 % on both levels to get that dark deep colors along with minimal brightness

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.omegacentauri.ScreenDim.Full&hl=en

test ur settings and post your likings and settings config below is something intresting , the samples with the viewing angles after I have set the app to 50 - 50

Before the app with 100 % brightness check the head on screen and the side view

and then after the app enable with 50% setting and additional deep viewing angle

Edit 1 i can 100% confirm viewing angles are great than ever with 50% on both... and derpest colors.. love xz more than ever... :D:D:D
