Any suggestion if 1.3mp cam from magician ported into xda IIs could work?

Thanks in advance..
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Trek55:
Maybe not...how can you modify the sensor chip from lower than 1.3 mgpixel into 1.3mgpixel? this is hardware not software dependent.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] skullbulks:
thank you Trek55.. i brought up this topic because the sensor on my o2 mini attach to the board using only ribbon cable... the sensor not soldered on the board... so if the xda IIs sensor were also using the same method and same cable it maybe possible... the problem is right now i don't xda IIs right now but i plan to get it next month...

thank you again....
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] raymondu999:
I believe that actually it is possible. I have heard once of a camera driver with just the right interpolation algorithms that it will increase the camera resolution. I have a friend who did this with his HTC Himalaya, in Xda II form. His could achieve (from 0.3 Mpix/VGA, no less) 1.3 Megapixel resolution.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] skullbulks:
wow... that's good news... maybe i should do some experiment... i like xda IIs because i can use win mobile 2003 or 5.0... the spec is good enough... the camera is the only drawback...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] MallardDuck:
I've been working on device trees and kernels for this, I know it's early (for this device) but it seems like there isn't much action going on for it.

So far I've got the stock kernel source building and have contacted some other Kernel Devs for the variant devices to potentially use their kernels when I can get a rom built.

If anyone is interested in these efforts then please use this thread, for now, to discuss device trees/kernel/vendor files; if we make progress or it gets enough momentum I can create a thread for just the Source needed to compile and etc. I'd be really excited if we could get a community (XDA) built device.

Anyways, my github is here: MallardDuck.

And here's the WIP device tree: Klte

WIP default kernel Source: Samsung source kernel (Tmo)

WIP arkenstone kernel Source: Started from samsung source for G900F variant

OH yeah here's a link to my vendor files!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mahanddeem:
Thanks for the partition table.

Is there a script that can backup all of the partitions ?

I believe that knox counter tripping has to do with one partition being modified when flashing something in ODIN, if a backup was made to that partition and then restored later, it would re"zero" that counter.

Any thoughts ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ravindrank:
Unlike the old samsung galaxy phone counters..the knox counter in s5 is a hardware thing.. I believe once its 0x1 we cannot undo

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vibogd:
Hi, i have xperia V (protoype). It was working fine, until i decide to put new Android (i was 4.0.4 on it). I don't have much of experience in flashing, but i did success already with my two other phones (ARC and P ), so i thought this time will be easy as usually. but...

phone was dead as stone..i spend more than week to trying all methods what i was able to find. now it's a big mess in my head and my PC, but now i made phone to start in recovery menu. thats all. tried install different roms, cyanomodgens-nothing... it just shows me SONY-->cyanomodgen and freez. at the moment flashtool can't see my phone.

if anyone can help me what to do( step by step), how to make this phone working again -i will be very happy person.

sorry for english.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vibogd:
just make it clear.. is it menu when need to press volume button when "sony" appears on the screen?

i can't tell you exactly how i did it- i did it with flashboot (boot.img or something), don't remember. didn't touch the phone for week, because i don't know what and how to do. as i said, i need step-by-step advice from beginning. if anyone will help me-i will be sooo happy :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] dyfk3l:
1. Is your bootloader unlocked - and did you test if your BL is/was unlockable?

If BL is unlocked correctly:

2. Try to flash another kernel in recovery,such as http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2223534

Then try to install a CM-ROM for example.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vibogd:
1. i did kernel install

2. CM install shows me some errors. can you drop me link for rom, please?

when i do that "fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xxxxxx" it says "phone is already unlocked! "

yes, i tried different kernels.

there are so many files with *.img, sin, elf, ftf -i don't have clue what has to be done.

when phone was OK i checke in service (?) menu and it was "bootloader unlock allowed-yes"

i'm trying to answer as much as i can.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] dyfk3l:
That sounds strange - because you said that service menu allowed unlocking bootloader. To be honest, I don't know what happens if try to unlock a bootloader which is not unlockable.

Regarding flashing: Take the NKernel from my link, open the ZIP file and extract the kernel.elf.

Then flash elf file via fastboot: fastboot flash boot kernel.elf

And then try to get into recovery and then try to flash a CM ROM like this from your external SD: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/39793/cm-10.1.3-RC1-tsubasa.zip (10.1.3-RC1).
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vibogd:
can't see kernel.elf in zip.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] dyfk3l:
It's in #7 where I asked you the first time to try another kernel!

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52279445&postcount=7

Try installing the ROM with NKernel recovery, otherwise you can flash the boot.img from the CM ROM (inside zip, also via fastboot). Can you install the ROM with one of the kernels?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vibogd:
ok... i installed kernel.elf, when i reboot into recover mode i was unable to choose anything-touchscreen doesn't respond, buttons does nothing aswell.

i'm sure i do everything ok, but every time phone stuck on second screen after "sony"

after flahsing boot.img phone stuck on first screen"sony"

p.s i don't know if that is important, but almost every time pc trying to instal drivers, but...MTP drivers was not instaled
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] dyfk3l:
That's normal, you can't boot a CM Rom with NKernel (which is for stock 4.1). You always need the right kernel for every Rom (and Rom generation - a CM 11 kernel won't boot with CM 10.2).

It was just to test if recovery is working. But you say it doesn't respond? Of course tochscreen is not working in CWM! You have to navigate with Vol up/down and enter via power button. I hope you know that?!

Go ahead and try different kernels/Roms. Like this: http://aokp.co/devices/tsubasa

Install boot.img from zip via fastboot, go into recovery and try to install the AOKP Rom from your externel SD card. Does recovery work? Can you install Rom?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vibogd:
yes, i know have to use vol + -, but noone button works.

one more q.. it doesn't matter prototype phone or not? uufff.. i'm almost give up. looks like i'm doing same and same every time and no effect.

thanks for helping and not leaving me alone with that head pain :)

p.s. just installed boot.img, but when tried to run recovery-just dead androbot appears on the screen :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] dyfk3l:
Sorry, but I've got no idea.

I never had the problem that a flashed kernel's recovery is not working - and I don't know why. Sorry. :(

Must have to do with the Flashtool message that your bootloader cannot be unlocked. There is sth. really strange...

Firstly make sure that you have device drivers installed from the HTC website.

if that does not work try copying rom file to external sdcard if available n flash it with custom recovery. and even try different recovery with dis method.even if dat does not help den seek expert members assiatance..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] pandaking:
Hello there, I hope I have got this in the right forum.

I have been perusing the forums, and you seem like a nice helpful bunch, so I thought I would pass some questions your way.

I am really interested in getting the Orange SPV M600 phone/pda as it has all the features I am looking for. I just have a few worries about usability.

Firstly - is it easy to send texts? I could just see typing on a touch screen quite hard, and I send quite a few texts. Can you write them using the keypad style keyboards (not qwerty, the sort on normal mobiles)? I can imagine on a small screen a qwerty keyboard would be awkward to do - it would be nice if I didn't need a stylus and could just use my fingers.

Secondly - Is it easy to make calls? I know these are very basic questions, but I haven't really read a review that answered them.

I make quite a few calls and I would like to be able to easily access my contacts quickly and without having to use a stylus also.

Lastly - what are your opinions on the phone? Do you like it? Wish you had gone with another / recommend another over it?

Cheers for your time...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] digger:
I have the M600 and while I don't do hundreds of texts a month I do a fair number. You have the choice of using several different input methods, two of the easiest are probably the keyboard (QWERTY) on screen keyboard, which when you get used to tapping away can be very quick, although may not be so easy if you are on the move as the keys are fairly small. Second you have the PhonePad which is akin to a normal phone keyboard and gives you T9 (or ABC/123) input. If you are at a PC you can also use something like Pocket Controller to give you a view of your Pocket PC on your PC and you can also type from your PC making writing texts very quick.

In answer to your second question, making calls is very easy. From anyhwere pressing the Phone answer button takes you to the phone and from here you can use speed dial, access your call history, your entire contacts list and if you start typing a number you get a filter of your contacts. For me the phone works pretty well. Size wise as a phone I find the M600 pretty good - at least you dont feel like you are holding a brick to your head like when using an XDA2... One of the main differences you may find to a traditional phone is that you need to be very careful if carying it in your trouser pocket - it would be pretty easy to break/scratch the screen - so never put your car keys in the same pocket... I just use the standard case (with the belt clip removed) and this works pretty well for me, although I am always careful.

Personally, I love this device (although I had the Jam before and loved this). I don't watch movies, or use Skype on it and I find the performance really good and the battery life is very good as well. One handed use has been massively improved and the soft keys help a lot with quick and simple navigation. For me this is my alarm clock, diary, phone, sat nav...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] pandaking:
Excellent post! Just what I needed to know.

I have read on lots of forums that the processor is really slow and a lot of people have been complaining about it, but I won't be using skype, and I doubt msn on my phone as you say, just viewing docs, sending texts, calls, using the calendar etc.

One other question that springs to mind: What is the synchronisation like with the PC?

If I have my calendar on my phone, does it synchronise well with outlook or whatever?

Oh, and just to keep you all interested, one more question, I want to hear you arguments and reasoning for your choice:

Should I be getting the SVC M600 or the SPV M3100?

As said before, I am looking for something that functions really well as a phone, is reasonably small and compact, but has the added extras of wifi, decent calendar that synchronizes, word doc viewer etc.

Cheers...

PS. Or even the SPV M1500 :P
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] TheBrit:
Me too. 8)

If you find it a bit slow, go to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=55782

The OC tool provided there really works well. Skype will work just fine with this too.

Sychronisation works great using ActiveSync 4.1. Yes, it synchronizes with OutLook. If you don't have OutLook, it's provided on a CD in the box.

SPV M3100? Not familiar with that one.

I have the M600 and I'm really pleased with it. 8)

Hi, Ihave the german O2 XDA Neo and finally it's the best cell i ever own! It's very comfortable to use the phone, more than a SE k750i or my Motorola SLVR!

I've been trying to push some AOSP style apps to system/app but I keep getting force closes on them.

Examples include calculator.apk and mms.ask. Any idea why these apps won't work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
The S4 is a TouchWiz phone, not AOSP. The AOSP framework isn't there, so many AOSP apps won't work. That's probably true for most of them, actually.

What you're doing is kind of close to taking an iPad application and trying to flash it, then asking why it doesn't work. :)

Also, Samsung apps are in system/priv-app, not system/app. Some may work, some may not. Generally fixing permissions and ensuring file name matches should help.

You can boot into stock Recovery by holding Volume+ when booting.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FJBORG:
Google Root Genius. Worked like a charm on an AzpenA727 tablet. Had to try a couple of times but it was the simplest, quickest way to root. After rooting you'll have to go to the play store and get Root Checker and SU. To increase battery life get SetCPU which allows you to set CPU policy so that when the screen is off the cpu runs at a couple of hundred MHz, plus you can slow down the processor while it's in use also. Experiment to find the optimal settings between performance and battery life. You can also overclock the cpu but this may lockup the tablet. There are youtube videos explaining how to reset a locked up Android tablet.
