[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] CresCoJeff:
I have a rooted Xperia E C1504 on which I would like to access the FM receiver chipset for a custom FM radio app I'm working on. Trouble is that my fcntl open() call to /dev/radio0 keeps returning EBUSY (errno 16: device or resource busy). Here is the code I'm using to try to open the device (executed in a root shell):

#define DEFAULT_RADIO_DEVICE "/dev/radio0"
...
radio_fd = open(DEFAULT_RADIO_DEVICE, O_RDWR);

I verified that the radio device is functional with the stock FM Radio app, which was able to tune to a frequency and receive PCM successfully. I turned this app off via its power button icon (this should release /dev/radio0, correct?) and explicitly force-stopped the stock FM Radio app from the Settings->Apps menu, and even deleting Radio.apk (the stock FM Radio app package) from /system/apps with Root Browser and then rebooting the phone, but my program continues to return EBUSY when it executes the above instruction.

What is the best way to investigate what process might be holding a lock on /dev/radio0 and kill it? I tried [adb shell "su -c 'lsof /dev/radio0'"] but the returned list didn't have any entries exactly matching /dev/radio0. There were quite a few cases of '/dev/log/radio' and almost 300 cases of just the word 'radio', but I was expecting to see something listed as using exactly /dev/radio0. I also tried [adb shell ps | grep radio] which returned

root 79 2 0 0 ffffffff 00000000 S kfmradio
radio 155 140 20416 3232 ffffffff 00000000 S /system/bin/rild
radio 178 140 7820 2472 ffffffff 00000000 S /system/bin/cnd
radio 215 140 6152 500 ffffffff 00000000 S /system/bin/qmuxd
radio 231 140 7288 752 ffffffff 00000000 S /system/bin/netmgrd
radio 610 157 311448 35704 ffffffff 00000000 S com.android.phone

the kfmradio process looked suspicious so I tried killing it, which didn't return any errors, but re-running the filtered ps list above showed that kfmradio was still in the process list (I suppose the OS restarted it?) Any advice regarding troubleshooting EBUSY returns from fcntl open() calls would be very helpful.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zorak20:
Hello!! I have a I777 and my battery is almost dead and since I can't find a I777's battery on my country I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a rom (or Kernel) in which I can use and charge a 9100 baterry on my I777 without having the loop issue.

Thanks!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
No rom/kernel package will be able to get around this hardware issue. You'll either have to make do with what you have or simply buy an i777 battery. They're really cheap ($5 or so), check in the Accessories forum for more info.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jack_R1:
The $5 batteries are all fake, and are exactly the same as i9100 fake batteries. They don't have NFC.

i9100 battery is a fit and if you have a normal one - it should work without bootloops.

My phone has lived with i9100 battery for a couple of months.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zorak20:
You are right, the cheap battery are all fakes and don't work but anyway, the problem is that I'm from Argentina and because of new government rules related to importations, I cannot buy a i777 from outside and in my country is imposible to find them.

What do you mean by a normal one? I tried an original i9100 on my i777 and I got the loops :(.

The reason of this post is because long time ago I read, don't remember where, that with some roms the i9100 battery worked ok so I though that maybe something could be shut off o done in the roms/kernels to disable the NFC. I google a lot but I couldn't find anything and unfortunately I don't have much time to go around testing every single rom. :crying:

Sooo any help would be much appreciated.

Just in case, I'm using SHOstock3 rom, I cannot ask in his thread due to my "new" status but If anyone can ask him, maybe he can find a way to change something in the room to avoid the loops.

thanks!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
The cheap batteries are not all fake, I'm using one as well as others. It's true NFC capabilities are lost, but who cares: NFC barely worked for this device in the first place.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jack_R1:
Define "fake".

For me, "fake" is when it says "SAMSUNG" on the battery, while it's not produced by Samsung, when it says "NFC" on the battery, but there's no NFC chip inside it, and when it states battery capacity, and the battery capacity isn't even 1/2 of the stated.

By all these criteria, the cheap batteries are fake. They don't have NFC chip, they're not produced by Samsung, they're not even the same batteries - you can read on Skyrocket forums, I've dismantled a true Samsung battery vs fake one and compared, it's easy to spot the fake by touch - the real battery fills all the possible space it has, the fake battery has a plastic holder around a smaller battery that's made to look and fit larger space. Of course, physically smaller battery also means - crappy capacity, nowhere near the "official" claim.

If you prefer other terms, like "counterfeit" - I don't mind the term as long as it stresses the right thing: these batteries aren't built by Samsung, aren't built by anyone that builds for Samsung, aren't of any "official" descent and are crappy (which makes their "SAMSUNG" sticker fake, by the way), so anyone who expects them to match the original battery is heading for a big disappointment. And I used 2 of those too, until I got annoyed enough that my wife's phone can't live till the end of the day, found and bought $30 original Samsung battery. Night and day difference. And the original battery is still alive till today.

---------- Post added at 09:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

I'm not sure of the reason for bootloops, but I'm quite sure it isn't NFC - because the fake cheap batteries don't have NFC either. The additional contact on the battery board is connected to nothing.

I always ran stock-derived ROMs on the phone (SHOStock mostly, but at some point - some other ROM I've ported from i9100), never had a problem running i9100 battery, both true and fake one.

If you can look at the logcat and pinpoint the failure that sends you into a bootloop - it might help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zorak20:
The problems is that without NFC on the battery you cannot charge it...don't you have this problem?

Are you using a i777 or a i9100 battery? Which rom are you using?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zorak20:
No problem, how can I look at the logcat?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jack_R1:
Here, a dismantled fake battery with marking, suggesting that it's the same fake model that is used for i9100. I've examined it under a microscope to make sure, and even on the photo one can almost see it - the leftmost contact has a board lead left with vias, the middle board contacts have vias, the rightmost contact - the one for "NFC" - has neither vias nor board lead, it's just there for show, connected nowhere.

For logcat, just search the web. You need to enable ADB and have drivers in the PC, apps are not good - because you need log from the boot time. One guide, for example:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1726238

There are many more. Search "how to use adb logcat".
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Good points, and good information; so by definition I should have said "counterfeit". Thanks for clarifying some things.

---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 AM ----------

This is the one I'm using - 100% counterfeit but works fine. Does not support NFC but have never had any problems with it. It's cheap for a reason, as it's most definitely not 2200mAh (pretty much stock 1650mAh, or close to it), but it functions well enough for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] conket:
[MENTION=4608191]SteveMurphy[/MENTION]

I just looked at the one you are using on ebay, it does not say anything about the battery cover for this 2200mAh. Does it same size as original that does not require new battery cover?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
It's the same size as stock, no need for another cover.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueDream49:
Hi everybody,

I don't understand how the wallpaper tool works in Kitkat.

I choosed a picture with a 1440*1280 pixels resolution, like the stock wallpaper. So it would fit perfectly the screen. I took the device resolution (720*1280) and multiplied by 2 the width for the horizontal scrolling.

But when I select that wallpaper, in the preview screen, I can move it vertically while his height is 1280 pixels, how is it possible ?

I don't understand why they don't fit perfectly while they have the perfect resolution, changing wallpaper in previous Android was more understandable.

Please if you can help me to understand. ( And sorry for my modest english )

My SD shows 7GB-ish full, which I know was from the music folder... the problem is, it doesn't show up.

When I use every single file browser, it shows nothing.

I used DiskUsage to locate the file and it just lists the 7GB as "system data".

Any suggestions?

For those who are still hesitant to root their tablet but wish they could add more Pen Window or Multiwindow apps without root, then let me share with you an app I created for the Galaxy Note 3. It is working well on an unrooted Note 3 but I have not tested it on the Note 10.1 2014. Hope someone could test it and give some feedback (will much appreciate).

App's name is MW-PEN APP ENABLER and can be downloaded from the following Note 3 thread: THREAD LINK

As this is intended for NON-ROOTED devices, there are some limitations which is discussed on the Note 3 thread link mentioned above.

I believe so, but trust me its well worth it since you won't have to go through rooting your tablet just so you can get this option. Ive been using it for a couple of days and have not noticed any unusual lag from these apps while on multi window, it's all working great.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 440bro:
I would (and did) download titanium backup pro. You don't have to use titanium, but it's highly recommended by many. Open titanium, or your preferred app manager and do a COMPLETE backup of all user and system apps. Then you can "FREEZE" any unwanted apps you think you don't need. Once you have the app(s) frozen, use the phone for a couple of days. If it's still performing fine then you can proceed to delete the already frozen apps. I highly recommend freezing before deleting. If you freeze something wrong, a simple unfreeze will fix it. If you delete, then you could be up the creek! I also recommend freezing one at a time. If you go freeze crazy you might not know what app(s) ruined your phone. One final note is to becareful restoring apps and data you have backed up. For example, if you backed up an app from an ics rom, restoring it to a kit kat rom might give unwanted glitches. Just be careful so you don't put your phone in paperweight mode!

I am new here and wish to get help from XDA.

I just got a unlocked Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747) and inserted my Rogers sim card. The phone came with 4.1.1 and everything was good and I root it. Then I found that I have 4.3 update. I updated to 4.3 (I747UCUEMJB) via OTA and root it again by CF_auto_root. The only issue was the phone always boot up and show " Unfortunately,SuperSU has stopped". However, I did get the root after reinstall supersu.apk. So far so good till last night.

What is the solution for this? ( I do not have efs backup but I write down some information such as IMEI)
