Hi, I'm using a Samsung galaxy s5, android 442, rooted, this app doesn't seem to do the trick,I still have a huge battery drain due to mediaserver. I've rebooted a couple of times. Any suggestions? Thanks.

After fiddling with this bug for more than a day the process somehow went away, nothing helped from all the "remedies" I read about, I guess this media scanner **** has to finish scan the files, otherwise you have to reset the phone or flash a new rom.

To be clear: I rebooted several times taking out the SD card, I formatted the SD card (yes, it contains thousands of songs, but that doesn´t mean mediaserver does this all the time) and I tried this app, nothing helped.
[Android Apps and Games] silentvisitor:
Hi,

Nice app :good:

I've problem with last update. It keeps popping error about Root despite I've full root access with Busybox installed. Kindly fix this.

I'm on AICP 11 btw.

In the meanwhile can somebody share last version with me (1.3.2)? Thanks !
[Android Apps and Games] skinthegoat:
Ok, this is probably a silly question but it's got this non-techie stumped. I've run the app and am enjoying the huge improvement in battery life, but how do I restart mediaserver if and when I need it? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] hiimimtayaz:
There is an option in the app which says "Trigger media scanner".... With this you can start the media scan anytime.
[Android Apps and Games] skinthegoat:
No. The only options I see are these:

1. Kill now

2. When screen u.. (ON)

3. Kill schedule (disabled)

4. Add apps to ignore list (List empty)

5. Clear ignore list, and

6. Show toast wh.. (ON)

I have no idea what numbers 2 and 6 even mean, and the truncated words are nowhere expanded.

Hitting the key at the bottom left of the 'phone wnren in the app gives the following options:

1. About

2. Rate MsKiller

3. More apps, and

4. Visit xda-thread.

I should add that my device is a Samsung GT-I8190N running Android 4.1.2.

Hi all! :)

I have an S-OFF Marvel (A510e) and I am using a homemade rooted Sense 2.1 rom. I use Link2SD with a 1gb Ext4 partition and i have a lot of apps linked.

So my question is: if I make a nandroid and change the rom (eg. CM10.1) will I able to install Link2SD, use 'recreate the mount scripts' option and get all my linked apps back?

If not, if I restore my nandroid, will I be able to do the same thing to be exactly as if I never changed the rom?

Thanks in advance! :D

I find I am really missing having a kickstand which I had on my Galaxy Nexus case.

I've looked some but there doesn't seem to be much out there with a kickstand.

I tried buying a Cruzerlite but it never came in so I got a refund. I'm not really interested in trying the same brand again.

What cases have you seen available with a kickstand?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] damngood98:
did you do a search on amazon..."nexus 5 kickstand"....there's a ton out there, just that too many of them look like they add too much bulk for my liking. honestly, i prefer the tpu cases...my last 2 phones had them and i couldn't tell you how many times i dropped them...i already have 2 cases but think i'm going to order this one...i kinda miss the kickstand as well

This is what I'm using now for my black Nexus 5, fit & finish is fine, no huge gap on the bottom at the micro-usb & speaker/grill openings (unlike the Spigen Ultra Hybrid case)

It's a 2 piece design, the hard plastic w. the flip out kickstand can be removed. It is slim enough that I have no problems slipping it in and out of a canvas vertical belt pouch for extra protection when I'm outside, otherwise, it's in my coat or jacket pocket.

It isn't that much bulkier and looked rugged & sturdy enough for the N5 to survive a drop (no plans to find out either ....)

Would people be interested in a simple program for changing registry settings? As an example some screen prints.

IMPORTANT: As this program makes changes to the registry it is important to first make a backup of your device.

Latest News. RegistryWizard is nominated for the PocketPC Awards 2007 and since the 10th of october even a finalist!

Suggestions for other tweaks are welcome.

Tweak2K2 versus HTC Wizard Tweak

I know the Tweak2K2 program, I even have a license for that. But as far as I now this handy utility has no specific support for the HTC Wizard. For instance the 802.11G tweak will probbly not available in Tweak2K2.

At this moment I'm working on the "Registry Wizard". The first steps are ready. On loading the program the several registry settings are read and the checkboxes are adjusted to show the current configuration. The second step will be to allow the user to change the setting by adjusting the checkbox. Clicking on the "Apply" button will pop up a messagebox asking to confirm a soft reset in order to activate the new registry settings.

Perhaps I can even build in a routine to check if the device is actually a HTC Wizard in order to prevent the program by mistake adjust registry settings on a non HTC Wizard.

For people interested in the program. The program is written with the aid of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 (VB) and the OpennetCF addin.

Suggestions for other HTC Wizard tweaks are welcome. Bij the way the GPRS allways on setting is a little more difficult as the registry shows specific provider information (in my case T-Mobile). So the GPRS key setting might be a little more difficult.

Unfortunally I have no knowledge of the other HTC devices so I'm not sure if that can be supported.

Kind regards,

Request for device information

Please be so kind to post information reagrding the Device Information. My MDA Vario indentifies itself as a WIZA200 in:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
You know what be ultimately stupendously great - even if difficult to implement?

Read the registry key names, descriptions, and options from an XML.

This way your app is -never- restricted to what you code in it. If somebody finds a new tweak, add it to the XML, and it'll automatically show up in your app.

As I said.. implementing this would probably be difficult - but it would certainly be a killer 'user-friendly' registry tweak app.

Nico

Same result for my O2 Xda Mini S
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jfai:
XML

I second that. Each tweak could have its own XML element. This way the changes of tweaks can actually be examined. New tweaks can be added, existing tweaks can be updated. People can examine what is done to their device in case they are a little bit weary - at least I would be.

The user interface would have to use a list/table instead of individual check boxes.

Since you are already working with .NET parsing the XML is no biggie.

PS: i-mate K-JAM device identification string - Model No = WIZA200
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nicodekker:
Tweak Wizard

Reading settings from XML is not so difficult. Problem lies more in the fact how to show this on screen. For example, if the XML entries are over ten how to handle a new tab page etc. I think users want to have control (see on screen) which enties are involved.

But overall, a great idea.

Nico
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
yeah, the display bit is the bit that'd be difficult, really :)

Obviously there's hundreds of tweaks out there, and I'm not sure how feasible it is to show hundreds of form lines in a dialog. Not sure about tabs, though - why not make the form page scrollable?

Tabs could still be used for 'grouping' tweaks, of course, so that top level XML elements essentially describe the group, and tab label, and elements within that are the actual tweaks.

That sort of thing needs thought ;)

Anyway, was just throwing it out there because it seems there's so many little CAB files with registry tweaks, and so many apps out there that tweak 2-5 things, and then a few apps that 'do them all', but really only do those that the developer decided to include - and good luck waiting for updates. Something like an app that parses a text/XML app for these things would, quite basically, do away with all that silliness.

( CAB files, I suspect, would still be popular as it wouldn't require installing an application / modifying a text/XML ;) )

Edit: Oh yeah... Qtek9100EN (unlocked, dutch-bought): WIZA200.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nicodekker:
XML files

OK, might be an idea to make just 1 screen and make it scrollable. When the first release is ready I might have a look at importing XML files to do the trick.

If the Terminal Server port is not changed, the entry for port 3389 is entered in the registry. This makes the program "check" the checkbox on reloading the values. I can make a minor change to have the checkbox not checked as the default port (3389) is selected.

One nice feature that was mentioned on page 1 would be the GPS control panel:

I installed the program (both parts) onto my recently purchased T-Mobile MDA (USA version) and it seemed to work great, except it blocked out my clock, the speaker icon, and half of my service icon in the top right corner of my screen. I followed all directions to the T and ended up having to do a hard reset to get it back. That might be something the creator wants to look into. I think i would love this program, if it would not do this. Here is some info on my unit.

In the options about increasing system performance - why not to make so you can choose how much you want to set the value (meaning I would like 16384, not the 4096).

Another one I have seen:

Font cashe increasing:

HLM/System/GDI/SYSFNT/CS = 16384

Should supply the tweak details when you request tweaks to be added, guys... makes it a lot easier for the author.

Didn't spot this one. You can store all attachments on the SD card through Menu > Tools > Options > |Storage| > [x] Store attachments on storage card. Not sure if things that are easily adjustable through the application interfaces warrant a spot in a tweak app?

However if you have a device with multiple cards, none of which would be referred to as "Storage Card", you'll need to tweak; peek at this page:

http://www.theunwired.net/?itemid=1885&catid=80

If there's some way to store the entire Inbox (would be weird if it was just Inbox, really) on the Storage Card - if that's what you meant - somebody please do post :)

Enable 802.11G: Works

Enable Clear type in Lscape mode: Regedits made = works

Enhanced performance: Regedits made = works

Use different e-mail address in MSN: NOT tested

Enable Indicator: Had that one already from another tweak

Hide SIM contacts: Does NOT work. This one creates a string value, not a Dword value!

Different GPRS/EDGE icon: seems to work (see registry change)

Disable Message sent notification: NOT tested

Horizontal scrollbar: Works

Vertical scrollbar: Works

Taskbar date/time: Works to put on different options on, but creates a mess when all off

Terminal Server port: No idea what this one is supposed to do

Enable BT receive: NOT tested

Keybord language: NOT tested

Show GPS Icon: DOES NOT WORK: it is not HIDE that needs to be delted, but "Redirect" on my device. Did it manually and now it works

Increase font cache: Does NOT work, goes back to 0 all the time

Store IE cache on storage card: NOT tested, did that one with Memmaid already

Disable IE background sounds: NOT tested, do not know what id does.

Would love to see the SIP default tweak (I like to use the character recognizer, it goes back to keyboard after every soft reset).

Tis is the tweak:

"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip"

2) Change "DefaultIm" key with your preference:

Block Recognizer: {42429691-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}

before the wizard, this was very useful to me. I would like to see it again... if for nothing else than to make the default a null sip so that I do not get the annoying sip taking away screen real estate.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
That happens whenever you turn it 'off', really. It's not really off, you get the active area it would normally occupy obscuring the icons that still auto-slide to the right. Issue in WM5 (and maybe prior).

For more SIP codes, see:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other

However, the best thing to do would be to have the tweak app go through all items in HKCR (or maybe only the ClassID style ones) and look for "IsSIPInputMethod", collecting them dynamically.

Btw, as I tested all those SIPs to get the ClassIDs, I tested them in general as well... there's a few real gems in there, but most of them are definitely either bollocks, or only worth looking into if you want to spend a lot of time learning how they work (e.g. Quikwriting - great concept, arse to learn).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Genesis3:
Not the attachments - the actual messages.

There is. Add the key "PropertyPath" with the value "\Storage Card\Inbox" to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Mapi. You also need the attachment directory set if you do that (for obvious reasons)

However, this appears to have some BAD side effects on the MDA. It looks like Outlook starts up before the storage card is ready, which ends up with it being renamed to "Storage Card2"! Ugly ugly ugly!

Doesn't happen on the SDA..... still playing with this one to see if I can get it to work on the MDA.
