Tell it "YES!"

Things work smooth most of the time. But sometimes it freezes so u have to turn it of and on again.

Still better that to work in airplane mode.

Hope this will be fixed in the new build.

I present to you Gizmooi: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.timvdalen.gizmooi

Origin story:

When I tried out Aviate I really liked the picture at the start but I wanted it to change once in a while.

So I decided to make a widget that does just that.

Show a nice, 'inspirational' photo and change it every day or so.

It is fully scale-able so it is compatible with launchers such as SF launcher or Aviate which allocate a certain number of pixels for it, but it also works great with launchers like Apex or Nova which let you resize widgets.

I'm not good at photography, so I'm not the one picking out the photo's.

Currently, the photo's come from this community: http://www.flickr.com/groups/78249294@N00

Obviously, only ones with licenses that allow it are used.

If you'd like, you can check out the GPLv2 source on GitHub: https://github.com/timvdalen/gizmooi

Any feedback is appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] lu1gj3s:
awesome widget but I don't get the white borders on my widget?
[Android Apps and Games] timvdalen:
Thanks, glad you like it.

The border only appears on the lock screen variant since some launchers already provide a border.

I'll see if I can detect borders and add them if needed.
[Android Apps and Games] timvdalen:
I just released a new version of Gizmooi to the Play Store, with a few important goodies:

[1.3] All CC licenses are now supported, not just CC BY-2.0! This means there are 6x as much photo's available now and we're a step closer to a new photo each day.

[1.2.1] Fixed a bug that caused old attribution data to show up.

[1.2] Incremental back-off if your phone's memory is full. This is currently implemented in quite a hacky way, but more phones should be supported now.

If you still experience a slow-down, please let me know here: https://github.com/timvdalen/gizmooi/issues/2

The most important thing to include in the report is whether or not the default photo (the one of the lake) is eventually replaced.

If it isn't, the photo download isn't working for you for some reason.

Once again, feedback is welcome!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmeister:
I'm in need of some kinda urgent help and advice regarding a phone i have just purchased for my mother.

I've bought her a cheap Daxian TD888 on the MTK6589 chipset and i'm afraid i have been a silly boy and not done my research before purchasing - I was under the impression that it came with the Play Store installed etc and sadly, it comes with a hard to use chinese ROM.

Mothers being mothers, mine isn't anywhere near tech/phone friendly and this is her first smartphone (upgrade from a 6 year old Nokia/symbian brick) so i was wanting to get her onto a nice and simple stock android 4.1 or 4.2 or even a CMxx that i can just help her along with.

After some very panic based searching today, i'm not seeing much that can help me... infact... nothing regarding this phone at all.

So... have I been a dumbass and bought her a lemon or is there anyone that can help me out with advice or pointers on how to get a normal android ROM on this thing?

I'm not massively experienced with rooting but have managed it a couple fo times in the past on my old Nexus One.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klown80:
I could probably help you get it rooted and that would allow you to install Play store on it as well as delete any chinese apps that sometimes come on the MT65XX devices if interested. As far as the rom goes, is there not an option in settings to change language to English? I have bought a few MediaTek devices directly from china, when I received the phone it had english on it already but when I reset the phones I would have to go into Settings and change chinese language back to english.

Motochopper should root your phone:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2252248

One thing with these phones is that the android version is not always what is shown in Settings > About phone. Try using this tool from the first post of this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2160490&styleid=18

make sure you enable USB debugging on your phone first and it will help tell which version of android you are really running. If kernel say 2.6.xx you are on GB 2.3, if it is 3.0.xx then you are on ICS and if it says 3.4.xx then you are JB. I bought a MT6575 that said android version 4.0 in settings, it said gingerbread 2.2 on the box (I know 2.2 is Froyo), then on bottom of box it said Froyo 2.2! :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmeister:
Thanks Klown80 -

I'm just into work now so I'll have to hook it up to my own PC and root when i get home later... i'm just in full on panic mode over this (its a time sensitive issue as she's due to be in hospital for an extended period and i want to get this right for her before then)

Regarding the language settings in the current/stock rom, it has english US selected and while a lot of the language is in english, pretty much ALL popup dialogs are in chinese and the browser is unusable (all chinese text based) so... hence the panic.

I was (foolishly) thinking it would just be a simple enough flash to CM or stock android and hey presto - full english ROM.

I hate it when i don't do my homework first.

So... you recommend the root first, check exact android version number and go from there?

Even if it turns out to be an older 2.1/2.2/whatever version, i'd be happy enough to get something stock and full english based on there if its possible.

As she's never had a smart phone, it will all seem super smooth and flashy to her anyway.

I have now rooted (i think..) however, the superuser app comes up with an error upon opening -

superuser binary (su) must be updated

and i now i'm kinda stuck.

I have downloaded and tired various versions of the play store and while the at first allow me to enter google accounts details, it always crashes after that.

Every time i open the play store app, it just closes again.

Any suggestions on where i might be going wrong?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klown80:
Sounds like you need to update the binary then, if it allows you. If not then the root did not correctly root your device and we will have to go back a step and get that fixed first. As for Play Store, it usually takes more than just the Play.apk file to put Play Store on your device if it did not come with it stock. You also need (I am going off top of my head, I can give you exact names later) Google services framework.apk, Google login services.apk, Google Play services.apk. You need to have root to to this because you will need to move the vending.apk to /system folder and possibly change permissions on the apk before you install it. Once we can confirm root I can help you install a working Play Store if you like.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmeister:
aphotaW are

I've no idea how to update the binary so I guess i'm looking at a re-root.

I have had the usual issues of drivers not wanting to work (the Motochopper root process getting stuck at the daemon starting point) but I've manged to get the process to work twice so far.

(I've tried 4 different driver packages and they have all given the same results)

Could you possibly advise on how to update the binary file for superuser? I've just tried the root again and it skipped installing superuser as it was already found on the phone.. i haven't felt this noobllike in some time!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] konsolen:
Sounds like the same prob with my.mtk device,

With motochopper i.get to update binary, but thats not possible.

You can try some of the roottools in my.acer811 thread.

I get many tipps from clown80.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klown80:
Try uninstalliong Superuser or SuperSU and try again. Su binary should ask you if you want to update when you first open SuperSU, if you have Superuser, then you will need to open the app and go into settings to update binary.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmeister:
meconte cutstones

It was aksing to try and update etc but its chashed every time - I was thinking that the root hadn't worked properly or something... anyway, I've uninstalled Superuser and reinstalled from a newer apk file (v3.2) i downloaded.

Its now running ok. Now that superuser is working... whats next?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klown80:
Ok, is it just Superuser and not SuperSU correct? Can you go into settings in Superuser and towards the bottom there should be an option to update su binary. If it is SuperSU it will ask to update on its own when you open it. either way make sure it lets you update binary. Once binary is updated download and install any app that asks for root acces, so we can see if superuser request pops up.

Once we have confirmed root we can move onto installing Play Store. To do this you will need to be able to install a file explorer like ES file explorer so we can install the files we need for working Play Store.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmeister:
In the superuser settings, there isn't anything apparent for trying to update the su binary.

the list reads as follows:

Security

Apps List

Log (on)

Notifications (on)

Backup apps/preferences

HUGE thanks to Klown80 for the advice and patience!

For anyone else in a similar situation with an MTK6589 cheapo phone, and had issues with the Motochopper root method (the root getting stuck at 'daemon started successfully' etc etc.....

Klown80's chinese root tool works a treat. You will have a chinese superuser app that may be a little annoying (you might be able to swap it for SuperSU or something but I had issues doing that so i've kept the chinese one) but the root works perfectly and the instructions given by Klown80 in the linked thread are very easy to follow.

I still had some issues with getting google services installed so you may want to look for a play store installer workaround - I know there is a cheeky little chinese mod apk that can be used to get the play store working, but i can't post it here.

Should anyone come across this thread and know of a good, stock english rom that I might be able to use, please leave a comment!

I was testing this on my W cause it keeps going the H all the time and sick of it.

"It would be on 3G but as soon as I open say Google Play or the Browser it would go to H,H is HSDPA."

Access Android Testing Menu

Go to Galaxy W and type *#*#4636#*#*

It will open the Android testing menu.

There you have several category of information. Tap on phone information.

Scroll down there and you can find set preferred network type.

Set it to WCDMA only,

[YOUTUBE]fdPC7spq930[/YOUTUBE]

Now your Galaxy W is in force 3G mode. It will never switch to 2G.

The problem is solved and we just forced Android to use only 3G. But Remember, in a situation where you don’t have 3G signals at all, you will be totally cut off from data networks. In such case if you need to use 2G EDGE connectivity, set preferred network type back to “WCDMA preferred”. If you restart your Galaxy W this setting will go back to default.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] klacenas:
Just a comment. I hope you know that High-Speed Downlink Pocket Acess (hsdpa) is an enhanced 3G protocol. So its faster than 3G. Another thing, no need to restart after changing the value. If you notice, right after changing it, the radio signal resets. Then it goes back on. Just a comment.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] real_mister:
But what about quick settings? There you have an option to set the network to 2G, 3G and both, no?

Then today after letting my phone die completely "battery death" i pluged it in and now it keeps bootlooping and i cant get it into recovery if i hold down volume down + power it loops at the galaxy s 4g starting screen. If i let it go of the power button at the correct time it just bootloops. anyone have any ideas?

Battery Pull. Hold Vol Up + Vol Down + Power. Whenever The Samsung Galaxy S 4G Splash Screen Comes On, Let Go Of The Power Button And Keep The Volume Buttons Held Down. Should Take You To Recovery

OMG YES!!! I have no idea what i did but i pressed the combo when i plugged it into my computer and it looped the battery screen twice then went straight into CWM recovery did not go through the splash screen like a normal CWM recovery start but whatever i got to remove the rom and flash the new Slim Rom :). Anyone have any idea what could have caused this just so i know what to or what not to do in the future ?

Try using adb
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
To get to CWM recovery on this ROM, simply download 'Quick Boot' application and use it to get to recovery. It works.

Apex launcher crashes as well. I think issue is ROM related. Also, ROM is very heavy, I couldn't find why.

Edit: ROM is snappier after using CM performance features and letting cache do its work.

sent from me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
I got through the splash screen on 1st try.

You should check if you worked according to ROM instructions.

I usually always format system as well as wipe everything twice before flashing any new ROM.

I was referring to :

1. the lack of recovery button on power menu.

2. The inability to use hardware keys to get to recovery after flashing this ROM.

Heimdall One-click (in download mode) and try again.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
You're right - I missed that option in developer features - it's called 'advanced reboot options'.

I'd suggest you get to download mode - one click heimdall and reflash this ROM after dowble wiping dalvik, cache, and format system.

I've flashed numerous ROMS to my phone before but have never ran into a problem like this.

-downloaded and flashed CM10.2 but it gets stuck around 75%

I've been on this thread, and the rom thread as well as waiting a bit, hoping to find a solution or it figures itself out. Nothing! Is it unsafe to pull my battery when its at 'Installing update' (75%) for an extended period of time?

Also, i am on CWM 5.0.2.8

Hi, I am trying to extract a file (actually, cplmain.,cpl) from a rom image. It all seems to work fine, but the size of the extracted file is lesser than the right one.

File seems to be truncated.

I did:

1) get the "B000FF" file (.bin), 24,856,907 bytes

2) Since dumprom seems not to "like" this format, I converted it using splitrom:

perl splirom.pl file.bin -wo file.rom

3) I don't know which format it generates to file to, but now dumprom works:

dumprom -d result file.rom > res.txt

4) A few snapshots of the file res.txt, regarding the file cplmain.cpl:
