I'm somewhat sceptical. The Universal fits in my pocket - just. Anything bigger wouldn't be usable - and amongst my friends I'm the most easy going about device size, no one else will carry anything close to as big.

Irrespective of its capabilities its no good to me sitting on the shelf when I'm out and about.

So, for me at least, when it comes to trading off capability against 'pocketability' the latter wins every time... YMMV

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] colonel:
hi Zakeen,

That battery life you mention does sound much better. I have had a few sony laptops over the years and they always faired much worse then other ones.

I am following the new Ulitra Micro laptop generation with interest. The Samsung Q1 and Toshiba libretto look more interesting to me as the Toshiba has a better spec. and is cheaper, and roughly the same size, whereas the Samsung is smaller. I think the 2nd generation of these devices will be better. I am prepared to spend around $1000 on a 1Mhz Pentium clone around the size of the Samsung Q1. The Libretto and UX180 are just too expensive.

I was also disappointed that Apple hasn't brought out a tiny laptop. The new macbook is very cheap at $1099 with a core duo cpu, but is actually bigger then the previous G4 macbook.

I have a feeling it'll take another year for these devices to mature. However then the Universal II (or whatever) will be out and again we will have to see whether a micro-laptop is actually worth it!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] alese:
Using Universal as micro notebook is an excercise in how much compromises you can make/take.

- Lack of built in storage

- No USB Host

- No VGA out

- Poor or no office compatibility (even Text and Page maker are a pain, Power Point and Project editing is even more of a strech and there is no Visio at all.

- Browsing capabilities and compatibility

- Even Mail clients are rather poor

... ant the list goes on ...

I'm sure Sony users will also have to make many compromises, but I'm also pretty sure not even close to Universal's users. If only it would not be so expensive...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quark^2:
I am going to unlock my bootloader sometime next week (and root after that ofc).

I already used my phone for several weeks thought, I got it fully configured to my taste.

1. What exactly gets deleted when I unlock my bootloader?

All apps + usersettings + smses etc? Also everything in /sdcard ?

2. What is the best way to backup all data?

I can backup /sdcard alright, but is there a non-root app for backing up all apps + settings?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightningdude:
Helium is a non-root app backup option. You have to pair it with the pc program, but it leaves the backups on the phone. I don't know about what gets wiped, though, I've not unlocked my bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psychoferno:
In my case everything was erased when unlocked bootloader. :(
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myabc:
is there a software for makeng complete backup and then restoring automacic? possible to do this folder by folder? name of software that do this? thanks
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samanderson:
SnapPea can backup your texts, images, etc. Get the app from store & download the pc programme. You can also backup to the cloud (I think) :D Good luck!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastdata:
There is a guide using ADB backup:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/general/guide-phone-backup-unlock-root-t1420351

Contrary to the guide, I didn't need an encryption password for it to work. I did however have to try it a few times before it would work (it stopped several times--failed), but got a backup eventually. It does reportedly work for the Moto G.

I haven't restored it yet though. I'm in the same boat as you are at the moment and I am preparing to unlock and root once I have all the help and supporting files for the process.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marty:
For anyone that is interested, the Helium backup app mentioned in a previous post utilizes this same ADB backup protocol cited in the link above in order to accomplish the backup. Helium just automates the process and slaps on a nicer UI.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastdata:
That's good to know, cheers.

Apparently SMS messages aren't backed up with ADB. I've looked around and found this free app MyPhoneExplorer that can handle that part amongst other features. Seems it can backup locally.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
Yes MyPhonexplorer makes a Backup on PC.

The Helium Backup is made on the phones storage. But sure you can copy that to your PC and copy it back afterwards.

Both apps are working nice without any problems.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastdata:
Excellent. Now to the tricky parts...

On a side note, with ADB I was able to write the backup straight to PC, but I think writing to the phones storage would be more reliable, then copying it off.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
I did not encouter any problems while just simply copying files to storage.

[Android Apps and Games] dancadar:
Hello,

I would like to promote my app: GPS Speedometer. 2 versions are available: one paid and one free; the free versions being supported by ads.

GPS Speedometer is a speedometer application that uses you're phone's internal GPS module to calculate your current speed and display it with large, easy to read, LCD-like fonts. It will also display your total travel time, your average speed, maximum reached speed, your heading and elevation, a nice compass and forward and lateral accelerations.

Features:

- High accuracy. The speed calculated based on GPS data is more accurate than the one displayed by your car's speedometer

- It supports both imperial and metric units

- 5 predefined color themes

- It can record your path, speed, distance, and elevation and save them in a KML file (for Google Earth) - just press the record button in the upper left corner.

- It can work in the background, so it can record your movement and speed even while you're talking on the phone. This means that if you really want to exit the application, you have to press "Menu" and select "Exit".

- HUD mode.

It requires the following permissions:

- WAKE_LOCK in order to prevent the screen from turning off

- ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION (GPS based location) for reading GPS data

- WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE in order to save the KML file

- INTERNET (free version only) to receive ads

Please note that while I've tested the application on several Android devices, there are way to many different Android devices to guarantee that it will work just fine on all of them, so if you encounter a problem with the application, just drop me an email with your phone model and a short description of your problem; I will do my best to fix it ASAP.

Of course, any feedback would be appreciated.

Available on Google Play:

GPS Speedometer (paid version)

GPS Speedometer Free (free version)

[Android Apps and Games] dancadar:
When in HUD mode, the screen IS mirrored. Please check the video, it's shown there.
[Android Apps and Games] necro79:
I would have a suggestion.

Add an option to HUD mode where only speed will be displayed, not all the info. Would be a great option for phones with small display.

Hi,

this is my first time here, hello every body!

Currently i develop a quiz-application on android min api11 and Java. I descripe the situation i need help for.

1. The Player choose the correct answer and get 100 scores

2. The scores are displayed in a TextView (RelativeLayout)

3. The update of the scores is no problem "findId --> setText()"

Know i want this step animate like a counter. The User have to see every Scorenumber until the end result (001,002,003,...100) very fast for about 3 seconds (Like a byte loader for downloads).

Iam not sure whats the best solution.

I spend a lot of time for searching forum-discussions, tutorials, etc. The Community have different opinions.

Using a thread.sleep in a for-loop, drawing a canvas for each number, ... additional there are different practieces and no informations about the ressources.

my question is: have somebody experience and tipps for the given problem?

Do u need more informations about the project?

thanks a lot and many greetings!

[Java for Android App Development] EmptinessFiller:
I would use Handler#postDelayed() because then you don't need to worry about blocking the ui thread/communicating to the ui thread.

Just two variables like int score, displayScore and a Runnable like this:

if (displayScore < score) {

displayScore++;

TextView#setText(displayScore);

Handler#postDelayed(this; 20 /*try other values too*/);

}
[Java for Android App Development] tsoens:
Perfect

Hi Emptiness,

this way is perfect! thank you very much.

Here is my final code

int score =100;
int displayScore;

Runnable newScore = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
TextView score=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.score);
score.setText(String.valueOf(displayScore));
if(displayScore < score){
displayScore++;
handler.postDelayed(this, 20);
}
}
};
newScore.run();

Thanks and have a nice day

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scarookie:
Hi guys, I'm new to this i9500 development section as my previous

device was galaxy s1 i9000. The i9000 cm 10 or cm 10 based

roms had 2 different partitions which increased available user

storage.

I understand the i9500 user available space is reduced

significantly due to the way it's partitioned so even if I uninstall

bloatware in the/system partition, the available user space will

hardly be affected since it's in the /data partition.

So I wanted to know if the partition is resized or if it can be

resized in cm11 or sammy based roms so as to increase the user storage

space available.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deandoi:
Yes you can resize the partition. Search the forum on how to do it. My advise is to buy an external microsd card instead. Less hassle, more more more storage.

Hello All,

Can you answer my few queries. The camera of the phone is said to record 4k video and 1080 videos @60fps but the phone is only capable of recording 1080p @30fps. Since the note 3 with same specs can record 4k videos is it possible via software upgrade or something like that to make our camera record 4k videos.

Can Kernel source itself is enough as the base for custom rom development.??
[GiONEE Elife E7] chetanbhawani:
The camera makers said that the camera is capable of capturing 4K videos but the Elife e7 cannot capture because the company hasn't provided that matching software which does it. May be that is for the future updates or flagship devices. The max you can record is 1080p at 60fps.
[GiONEE Elife E7] GTARaja:
what do u mean by matching software it has got all the libs required foolish gionee ppl and provided libs for several omnivision sensor libs to our device..how can u record 1080p @ 60fps its 30fps only...4k is not possible till now as it uses the android camera api which has maximum of 1080p recording capabilities note3 and xperia z2 have their own api for this so they can record 4k videos

So I found mint HTC First on eBay, the description says it's

not activated

and

not unlocked

.

My question is, can I buy it, export to Europe and unlock it using the hack posted here?

I don't have access to AT&T SIM card and never had AT&T account.

Can an unactivated HTC First be unlocked? Is there a way to bypass activation screen?
[HTC First] russian392:
thing is...you can but the phone and unlock it im sure. but you will need a sim to tell if its unlocked and be sure about it.

things you should know...

1. the htc first uses a micro sim

2. the htc first has almost zero support from developers and is no longer supported by htc or att

3. the htc first is known to be prone to problems during root and flashing of any kind of kernel or rom

4. it does not have removable storage wich makes our jobs a bit harder.

so if you could, go for another device if you simply dont want to have to constantly mess with it (i personally like to do all the flashing and hacking) so if you want to get a good device cheap...dont use ebay...use this: http://www.cellularcountry.com/
