[General Questions and Answers] Diablo67:
The generic boot-loader (*which resides on the chip-set) has no knowledge of USB etc, as the lk (Little Kernel) is more concerned about trapping keystrokes in order to chain-load into recovery or to boot directly into Android environment (When holding Vol+Down key in this instance) - in pseudo-code (this is from the context/aspect of lk, and also, the memory addresses pertaining to how to read the partitions are hard-coded into this lk so it will know how to process the logic!)

The lk kernel is the de-facto standard by Qualcomm for MSM chipsets (Snapdragon) and adopted by manufacturers such as Sony, Motorola, LG, Samsung and can be found in the AOSP source under bootable/bootloader.

if (Is Volume Down key pressed?) then

chain-load kernel from /recovery partition into particular address in memory and jump to it and start execution, in bringing up the recovery environment

else

chain-load kernel from /system partition into particular address in memory and jump to it and start execution in bringing up the Android environment.

end if.

As the kernel within lk is pretty limited, considering that the binary image of the kernel is burned into the chip and therefore no way of modifying it. And also should be mentioned that lk contains the fastboot protocol in preparation for flashing /boot, /recovery, /system and /data partitions. There are two sequences to boot, primary boot and secondary boot as it is:

Primary Boot -> lk (depending on outcome of logic)

Go into Secondary Boot -> /boot or /recovery

Side note: Samsung is fond of the PBL/SBL (Which is Primary Boot Loader and Secondary Boot Loader respectively) in their jargon when it comes to modding. Thing about Samsung, is that, in some handsets, PBL and SBL may be encrypted (Samsung Wave GT-S8500 is one such example, where porting Android to it was nearly impossible to do because of the DRM within the boot loaders which was a nightmare to deal with and made modding it extremely difficult, nonetheless, it is sort of working via an exploit in the FOTA code!)

This is why there are no extra facilities such as OTG functionality or anything else such as serial communications, reading from SDCard, graphics etc as it would make the lk kernel bigger than is intended. In other words, it is the smallest possible size of kernel that is designated to do just the above pseudo-code happen.

Also, another way of looking at it is this, and this is dependent on the Android version - the USB OTG functionality is fully brought up within the Android environment, i.e when the familiar home screen appears, then OTG's functionality is enabled. Unfortunately not the case when looking at it from lk's perspective.

If you're curious, here's the Qualcomm entry on the above lk which is a part of the tiny C source that has ARM assembly included and found in JellyBean's AOSP source in bootable/bootloader/legacy/usbloader/main.c

But SWAP is not supported on our kernel.

It gives false message.

He took the phone's image from google and replaced the black screen by his screen shots. Clever thinking.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] amogh420:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] amogh420:
Why would I blame you without looking at the pic lol.

Abhi had mentioned the same one in his thread so yeah, drew conclusions without hovering over the original thread of OGBatteryMod. :p

Never mind.

Ahh, Karbonn.

Explains why your screenshots had that overlapping and half cropped grill.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GuneetAtwal:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
Hi, thanks in advance for the help.

I recently copied a lot of music from my computer to my phone, and I use Poweramp to play it. Everything is fine except for an annoying problem which I will try to describe as best as I can:

Each song has a length obviously, however, when in Poweramp, this length is increased for every song, producing a sort of very long gap at the end of every song. For example, if my song is 3:20 of music, Poweramp will add 15 more secs of useless space at the end of it, making it 3:35. Should I click the progress bar right at the end of the song, it will do nothing but immediately change to the next track (for example, if I want to play the last 5 seconds, nothing will play but it will only play the next track).

Summary: Poweramp adds useless, not even playable space at the end of every track.

I have tried doing a full rescan, a rescan, changing track names, clearing data, clearing cache.. nothing.

Can you please help me?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Tried settings > Audio > Fade, Cross fade and Gapless > Cut silence?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
Yes, still no success
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NatTheCat:
Does it do the same in any other music app?

Try stock and playerpro trial
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
Only in Poweramp, it's sad because Poweramp is such a fine app besides this silly problem
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SignetSphere:
I've had this problem before and I still have it now. It seems like poweramp doesn't like manually encoded mp3's. So did you encode some? Like used a youtube to mp3 converter etc? If you did then the problem will arise. If you are patient enough you can encode the mp3 files again using audacity and export them as a 320kbps ones or you could just buy the original music through itunes or somewhere that legally sells downloadable mp3's :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
damn, I actually bought the cds, then ripped to lossless and then converted using Audials prior to adding them to iTunes and then gave the cds away!

It makes me no more happy to know that you still have the problem. :/

What you recommend would take a long time indeed. I am certainly never using Audials again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SignetSphere:
I don't know about Audials but yeah somehow Poweramp doesn't really like programs converting the mp3 files. And about Audacity I just accidentally found out about it and it works wonders after it exports the mp3 files and weirdly poweramp doesn't add those additional 15secs of playtime.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
BUT you tend to lose even more quality when converting from lossy to lossy AFAIK... It would work as a temporary solution though. Thanks for the tip! :D

I had contacted their customer service and they knew NOTHING, they even asked me to send them a sample song just to tell me to do the Full Rescan. I would ask for a refund, but the app is so good at everything else!

Did you contact them?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SignetSphere:
i'm no music expert but yeah it would lose quality but the difference is unnoticeable imo. The app is really quite good and really stands out of all the music apps on the playstore. And nope i haven't contacted them about this issue as I've downloaded most of my music on itunes so no additional encodes were required.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
If you don't add any more compression and change encoding - you wont lose quality. Its not the process that loses quality, its your settings
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
Oh ok I thought it was the process. Thank you! I will be transcoding all my music then :) still it's an ugly bug this one (I will be insisting on it to their customers support) , but you've both helped me, thanks again
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
good luck!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NatTheCat:
Good luck as well, it's got to be the best music player for me. Player pro does sound a tad better with the dsp packs but man, power amp looks great and works very well.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
There was an update yesterday, I will try it with the problematic music and see if the problem has been solved.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SignetSphere:
Nope the update didn't fix it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoriver42:
I was checking and analyzing everything today and it does have to do with the encoding. I had mp3s that were shown on iTunes as 'MPEG Audio' and some others as 'MPEG Audio File'. The first ones had the problem when added to Poweramp, the other ones didn't.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SignetSphere:
And to me it seems like MaxMP (creator of the app) is ignoring the problem. Oh well... the app is superb however when it comes to problems like this the support is quite disappointing.
