How do you re flash kernels? i havent done this in awhile? can I just do it from clock work? or do I have to use odin?
[Vibrant Android Development] chraso:
Hi [MENTION=5466369]Martin_Devil[/MENTION],

I'm curious to know how did you port a newer kernel with closed source fsr driver?

Is it because of the ICS release for the and you use that drivers?

We at http://madteam.co has stuck at 2.6.35 kernel because of the fsr drivers for half a dozen devices.

I'm inviting you and would like to request to help in the case.

Awaiting for any help.

Thank you.

HI All - Does anyone know how to force the phone display to show my contacts as <first name> <second name> rather than the other way a round?

I tried the hack available at

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=41968&sid=b73d9d6aacdea440d7d0dd916618b70c

but it didn't seem to make a difference
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PROTOCHIP:
Dear stevep,

After installing this hack, you should tap and hold on the name in the contacts window and choose " File as: First Last " from the menu...

Regards and thanks...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stevep:
Hiya! Are we talking about the same window? I mean the one that appears in the phone application. I think you are talking aobut the 'tap and hold feature' in CONTACTS app NOT the PHONE app. If I 'tap and hold' when in phone mode...I just get a window that shows all that contact's telephone numbers plus an option to send them a text

Thanks anyway
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PROTOCHIP:
Dear stevep,

I meant that, after installing the hack, if you tap and hold in the contacts on a name and choose " File as: First Last " from the menu, then the name order is changed to First Last and this should also effect the phone window view.Now you should see the same view order in the phone window...

Regards and thanks...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stevep:
File as <first> <last>

Hi again - Thanks for the reply

This is strange. The names are filed 'First' then 'Last' in Contacts, but in the phone view SOME aren't. I specifically changed one in Contacts to First Last...and when I opened up the phone window it was showing LAST, FIRST

:x
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PROTOCHIP:
Dear stevep,

i advice you to soft reset after changing the orders to first last, because the phone window doesnt refresh it self till soft reset...May be this helps...

Regards and thanks...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stevep:
Names 'order' in Contacts

Sorry...it does not appear to do this even after a soft boot. ie I still get LAST FIRST in some contacts in the phone window whilst they are FIRST LAST in Contacts

Thanks
[Nook Touch General] yekniw:
I have both kindle and Nook simple touch.

I notice a cool feature on kindle, when reading scanned pdf, it can automatically wrap word - it breaks one line of words into multiple lines, which makes reading pdf much enjoyable on Kindle.

I tried to find a similar solution on Nook, but failed.

I tried Orion viewer with kindlepdfviewer mod. it is functional but not stable at all...

I know a couple android apps that support such feature, but it cannot run on android 2.1 - what an old version nook is using :(

Does anyone know a solution?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
libpdfhost.so (which does the bulk of the stock reader) switches into reflow mode when things get too "awkward".

You can set the font to really big and it will reflow.

I have Samsung Note 2 GT-N7100, samsung 16 GB Micro SD card class 10, today, its not the 1st time, i had problem when taking photo, i had error i can't save to SD card, the camera can't save to SD card, when i open my files, i found unknown files with weird name :mad:, please see the attached files. any help, any one know the solution???
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cabessius:
Try using another card to see if the problem is the card or the phone.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irwenzhao:
Welcome to XDA! Reboot your phone. If it doesn't work, Try another card to check if it's the card's problem or the phone's problem. If it works with another card, it would be the card's problem. Try formatting the card. If that fails, your card's dead. If it doesn't work with another card, it would be the phone's problem. Try another ROM/kernel to make sure it's not a ROM/kernel issue. If the problem still persists, it's your phone's hardware problem. Bring it to a Samsung service centre to get it checked.

thanks for help Irwenzhao,

i already did all what you mentioned.

this is what i did:

1-format SD card via phone.

2-format SD card via windows laptop.

3-change SD card with new one.

Its not the 1st time facing this problem, i had 32GB SD card, also had this problem, replaced it with 16GB still the same, this happens since the first time i bought my note 2. maybe its software issue.

anyway thanks for all for help. i think i should live with this problem till buying new one :o
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:
Exactly. This is most probably a sign that the SD card is "dying". You can prolong it's life by backing up what's readable and formatting then restoring, but I'd be carefull about the card and not leave imporant data on it w/o backup.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androkinky:
Ever since I upgraded to KitKat, I started to have problems with my mobile data connection.

Usually it works, but every once in a while (usually after I leave a wifi connection) it fails to connect. You can see the H on top of the mobile signal strength appearing intermittently (tries to connect, but disappears after a while. It repeats several times, but doesn't connect). When this happens, I have to reboot my phone in order for it to work (turning on and off airplane mode doesn't solve this).

I am currently using 4.4.2 with Franco Kernel (the problem also happens with stock kernel) and Davik. I'm currently using the Nexus 5 Experience rom (I was also having this problem with the stock rom.

My mobile connection worked perfectly up to 4.3. Did anyone else face or is facing this problem? Does anyone know what I could do in order to solve this problem?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Scientist95:
Similar problem on 4.4.2. My 3G data disconnects every time when i'm not using it. I have to turn it on/off several times to get it connected back. It's not carrier problem because data doesn't drop on my other device with the same network. I'm on complete stock. In fact, just bought this phone a week ago. I googled this problem and it seems many users have this problem. I couldn't find the solution. If anyone have a solution on this issue please let us know. Thanks

You can flash the zip in a custom recovery or use fastboot. Do not try to flash using stock recovery.

So, after struggling with the problem for a while, I decided to try flashing a custom ROM. I decided to try the CyanogenMod 11 nightlies.

The radio problems seem to be gone so far, and the rom seems to be pretty stable (even though it's a nightly).

I suggest who is having similar problems to give it a shot.

All,

I want to root my Xoom and us a custom Rom. I was thinking that I would ask a couple of questions before I do it.

I WILL NOT HOLD ANYONE RESONSABLE FOR THEIR COMMENTS OR ADVICE IF I BRICK MY XOOM!!

I was going to add to a couple of possible forum, but I thought it may be better to start a new question.

1)	What do you get when you root your Xoom?

2)	What is the advantage for using a custom ROM.?

3)	If I use a custom Rom will it improve my Xoom performance?

4)	What ROM would you use?

5)	Where can I go to get the files and information on what to do?

6)	Does the ROM get updates?

7)	Do you overclock you Xoom when you us custom ROM?

8)	What is the latest version of Android come with Custom ROM?

I love my Xoom and would like to get the most out of it

Thanks,

Grim
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obsy:
You will get most answers HERE
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Domunus:
I don't claim these as facts but just from my experiences and readings.

1. rooting elevates your rights on the Android system. It's equivalent to admin for windows. If you want to know what advantages rooting provides google it as there are many written articles about that.

2. I wouldn't say it's an advantage but just provides more options and features. This varies depending on ROM.

3. It would depend on what version you are on now and chances are, the answer would be, not really. The kernel for the xoom is still the same one from 4.1 which is where the performance gains / loses come from. Although some ROMS are able to minimize in the UI. If you are coming from honeycomb then yes there is noticeable performance gains.

4. I'm currently using EOS 4 Build 197 Bigpart with Elemental bigpart Kernel. There is a kitkat ROM out now however, it's wingray only. Waiting for the possibility of stingray. But like i mentioned before, until someone can update our kernel don't expect any real performance changes.

5. Use the link the last guy provided or just check the development forum. The How to is usually the top most post.

6. Currently the only ROM getting any support / updates is the new Kitkat ROM for wingray (wifi only). How long... depends on how long the developer remains interested. They do it all for free so how frequently is when they feel like working on it.

7. Yes, i overclock to 1600mhz max makes a difference.

Overclock and kitkat; that's why you want custom. Xoom at 1.6GHz running 4.4.2 with ART feels like a brand new tablet. Just do all your research first or you'll be buying a new tablet.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashuaria:
1)	What do you get when you root your Xoom?

Depends.

2)	What is the advantage for using a custom ROM.?

whatever Stock ROM doesn't provide.

3)	If I use a custom Rom will it improve my Xoom performance?

If the custom rom contains overclocked CPU or GPU, then it will indeed.

4)	What ROM would you use?

CM11

5)	Where can I go to get the files and information on what to do?

HERE!!! :o

6)	Does the ROM get updates?

It depends...the more users are IN, we could get more update chances.

7)	Do you overclock you Xoom when you us custom ROM?

Yup. That's one of the PROs I've explained. 1.0Ghz is too slow.

8)	What is the latest version of Android come with Custom ROM?

CM11 is based on KitKat(which you could call Android 4.4)

I can't tell you how many times I soft bricked during the process, but every time - with some persistence and research on these forums - I was able to recover and proceed. Eventually I got it right.

The right apps at the right time

No more fumbling through screens of apps to find the one you’re looking for. Cover learns when and where you use different apps and puts them on your lockscreen for easy access.

What is Cover?

Cover is the fastest way to get to the right apps at the right time. It’s a free app for Android that replaces the lockscreen of your phone, adding shortcuts to your favorite apps.

What does Cover do?

Cover recognizes the places you go: home, work, car, and out. It learns which apps you use where, and puts the right ones on your lockscreen for quick access in each context. It also pays attention to which apps you use during certain hours of the day and days of the week.

Cover lets you quickly peek at apps and jump between them. With Cover’s smart settings, you can specify ringer volumes for each context too. See our demo video for more info.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coverscreen.cover

Just started using this app, thought I'd share.

1) Camera launch almost always fails ( on my nexus 5 with face recognition lock setup)

2) Does not bubble up apps with notifications to top

3) Does not show next meeting, battery percent and other simple info most other lock screens show ( samsung , htc ..)

4) tap on a app with notifications ( say hangout) can show the notification message ( cover already has access to notification content). swipe will still open the app

[Nook Touch General] MRXIII:
Hello everybody

I have some doubts regarding what I have just done.

I have had a kindle keyboard for a few years and was very pleased with it. Unfortunately it broke and I had to think about a replacement.

I always had a good opinion of the nook e-reader and found out that the new kindles were having a lot of problems. After reading a few reviews on internet, I also discovered this forum and got very excited about having a rooted nook and its possibilities. So I ordered a nook Simple Touch Glowlight and I rooted it two days ago with nookmanager.

I didn't install google market so I still haven't added any app nor done anything else that I would not be able to do with a nook that is not rooted. So far, the only good thing that I get from my rooted nook is the back button that appeared on the top. But I don't really like the ReLaunch interface so I stopped to think and asked myself why did I root my nook. I initially just wanted to replace my dead kindle. I don't want a tablet. I just want a e-reader with a powerful battery. What I want is:

- Be able to lock my nook with a password as with my old kindle

- Have a back button (not back as previous page on a book. Back as to take me to whatever screen I was in before)

- Be able to read in landscape

Can I achieve that without rooting ? If I can, I will happily revert my nook back to its stock condition.

If I need to have it rooted to achieve the above features, is there any rooting method lighter and less intrusive than nookmanager? Would it be enough to enable adb by following this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2122046 ? (I mean do I only need to have adb to achieve the 3 features I want ? )

Many thanks in advance.
[Nook Touch General] Crispy3000:
Yes, Step one learn to use search this forum button.

Yes, Lock Screen

Yes. You can already do this. Go to relaunch->applications (bottom middle)->Nook Mod Manager->Assign Keys. Personally I bind top left to back and bottom left to menu. right top and bottom to next/prev page.

Yes but only on a non-stock reader. I recommend installing cool reader, set display mode to fast update 7.

Install this to do so. Use nook mod manager to bind to a key. Personally I have a it mapped to a button on the quick menu and long press top left.

No. Relaunch is just a launcher you don't have to use it.

Benefits of rooting allows you to have a simple ebook reader that does what you mentioned above plus a lot more. You will have to spend a bit of time reading etc how to do it.

[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Stock reader can kind of do landscape.

Just remove the portrait only from AndroidManifest.xml

If it starts in landscape, it will be in landscape.

(Ok, this isn't convenient, you'd have to sign it with the system signature

and you have to kill it to switch orientations.)

A bit of modding would make it truly work.

The problem is, I didn't find the landscape mode compelling enough to bother.
[Nook Touch General] MRXIII:
Hi Renate, Crispy

Thank you for your replies.

I did search on the forum, that's why I posted on the Locking screen thread before creating my post, but I got confused

So, just to be clarify, I can have lock screen and back button in a non-rooted nook if I enable adb (following the tutorial made by Renate) and install Nook Mod Manager ? Is that correct or I didn't get it correctly?

Thank you
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
People get a bit confused talking about "rooted".

Rooted just means having root user access to a device.

It's taken on connotations in the public mind of having Google Play and the kitchen sink installed on it.

It doesn't have to mean that.

To alter most things on the Nook requires you to have root access.

To make the "n" button or the side buttons do different things you must modify software on the Nook.

You have to have root access to do that, but you could disable it afterwards.

There is no point in that because no matter what you have a modified Nook.
