[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SonOfAnarchy0210:
Ok. So I recently purchased a Virgin Mobile SII. I would like to root it, but have minimal experience. The only phone I have rooted was the Droid Charge through Verizon. Had no trouble rooting it and flashing ROMs. I can follow directions easily, my problem is finding the right directions to follow for this phone. I have read through countless threads and can't figure out which route to take, there are so many options.

I don't want to do anything super crazy, I just want to root and find a very stable/reliable and snappy ROM to use. Possibly a Kernal also? Like I said, nothing crazy. So if someone could PLEASE point me in the right direction as far as the best root method, and most stable and 'recommended' ROM and Kernal it would be GREATY appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mkfryan:
Search YouTube for a how to root qbking has many awesome guides with links

Making the iPhone jealous one user at a time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] grayfox126:
As long as you are not trying to learn anything from the rooting process, you can just use the one clicks from rwilco's repository.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SonOfAnarchy0210:
Not trying to learn anything, just want the results! And ok thank you very much. After I root, Any suggestions on what to do from there to enhance the phones performance/enjoyability?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SonOfAnarchy0210:
I don't understand the whole original development/android development thing..?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] grayfox126:
Well what is your reason for rooting?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
There is a sticky in original development detailing the reason behind it

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] eic09632:
Hi,

i´m trying to develop an app that will have to work with the camera in my PDA (model: Qtek 2020) using LabVIEW PDA Module 7.1.

My app has to be able to use the camera button, not to open the default camera application but open my own camera application.

I have already found a camera API that will allow me to work with the camera using .NET.

My problem is working with the camera button. I have tried LabVIEW example (...\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\examples\PDA\input\input demo.vi and also attached) but it doesn´t

returns the value of the camera button. Also, the default camera application doesn´t open when i press it.

Because the default camera application doesn´t open, LabVIEW knows that the button exists, so why doesn´t it returns it value?

If anyone has any suggestion for using the camera on a PDA with LabVIEW PDA Module, i would appreciate.

Thanks

I have a Galaxy Note running Android version 4.0.3, and I'd like to change its MAC Address at will for tethering, but no matter what method I try, it never works. Does anyone know of a sure way to do it on this phone?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harold5249:
If I'm not mistaken, Mac address is build into the hardware. :)

*Convince me if I'm wrong.

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
You can't change a mac address, it's the hardware signature, as said above. And why would you want to anyway?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shulebs:
I want to do it so I can connect my 3DS with Streetpass relays, but that requires me to make the phone's address match the relays'. People can do it with other models, so I assumed the same would be possible on the Note, even if the method differs.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azeazezar:
There are quite a number of mac address changing apps on play, Not sure if they work with tethering.

Just try a couple of them.

They do require root though.

If not, look up how to do it on linux and use the terminal.

Good luck.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shulebs:
Well, I managed to change the MAC using the terminal, but only on really weird conditions. I had to turn the tethering on, and then send the terminal command after it activated wlan0, but before it finished setting-up the tethering (or else, I'd get a weird signal with both the original MAC address and the target one, that can't connect with anything). So I guess the question now is: is there any way to turn on the tethering using only the terminal?

EDIT: Well, I managed to open the tethering app through the terminal, but is there a way to manipulate it exclusively by using command lines, without the graphical interface ever popping-up?
[Motorola Droid 4] skyss07:
is there a possibility that CM 10.1.2 will be ported in stock rom? if not, why we need to create a logical rom slot? Thanks for whom who will answer this. :))

The 10.1 nightlies can be flashed to any slot (as of the 16 I believe)

Also missing mobile data indicators, but I think this is known at least since beta 2 - theres a post regarding this a few pages back.

Another one, I suspect this is launcher related: I have the hardware buttons dis- and the nav bar enabled, but it doesnt stick to be transparent against the wallpaper... Im using Action Laucher, in beta 3 I couldnt get the nav bar transparent at all, now it it works for a while till it turns opaque again. Can anyone confirm?

Camera issues

I've to report a weird issue about camera. Yesterday my I9300 was unable to recognize the external sd and for that reason was unable to take photos too. I rebooted and the issue was still present, so I tried to fix permission in recovery and that apparently solved the problem.

--------------------------Edit-------------------------

I've just discovered other minor errors in camera app. The scene settings names in Italian language are not matching with the scene Icons...

Night icon is reported as "azione" that means "action" or could be intended as sport

No scene icon is reported as "notte" that means "night"

Sunset icon is reported as "nessuna" that means "nothing" or "none"

The icon with the hat is reported as "tramonto" that means "sunset"

So, now, which one I have to follow? The Icon or the explanation? ;)

I checked also other translation issues and I discovered that, in camera setting, the Jpeg Quality setting is not still translated, it has to be translated as "Qualità Jpeg".
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] efattal:
Same issue in French, so maybe not related to language.

SIII with SlimBean 4.3, latest Yank Kernel for CM10.2, TWRP
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] effepas:
Maybe not... but at this point it could be interesting check if it is an issue or not, if that issue is present in other languages but I think that it could be only a mismatch between text and the order of the icons.
