[General Questions and Answers] XDA-Sez:
Well at least I have now some kind of virtual device running, but its nearly impossible to work with because it lacks installed live wallpaper and lags way much in time to be usable, is there maybe an open build server around?
[General Questions and Answers] XDA-Sez:
I guess this question is wrong on this section therefore i only got one answer until now... somebody know a way to put this thread into android section?
[Surround General] VeryCoolAlan:
So how is the full speaker is it that great?
[Surround General] empire6:
i ordered the phone online without seeing it in real life first.. it was thicker heavier and generally bigger than i expected.. also thought it seemed weird that only a speaker slid out and not a keyboard..

i was considering returning it but i decided against it. the on screen keyboard is good enough and the speaker has been clutch on multiple occasions.. when my friend didnt have a car stereo and when everyone was too lazy and stoned to get up and put music on :p

so yea speaker is cool for when you need somewhat loud sound.. dont expect a great battery life doing that though
[Surround General] squidbutt:
dont listen to him,

haha its a pretty good phone

the speakers pretty sick with the stand great for showing off/playing music for your friends
[Surround General] empire6:
woah i didnt expect this thread would be graced by the presence of a senior member!!! BOW DOWN TO THE MAGNIFICENT SQUIDBUTT.. lol.. what if he doesnt have friends did you ever think of that?? jerk
[Surround General] jwzg:
Quite an improvement over the old Fuze (TP) even with the lack of a slideout keyboard. I do like the speaker as it has been clutch for me as well for a few phone calls, some decent music and NFS. Other games are good with it too.

PS: Empire6, now you have a retired moderator in here. Behave, LOL.
[Droid Incredible General] khanam:
I have been playing with all the Desire Z Roms of late. All of them have some different aspects and features but I noticed something unusual just now.

I started with Wes' Super Z Rom and had set everything up on it and wanted to try Nils' Z 2.0 and Carbonite Z 2.5.1 Roms. Even though all the devs said do clean installs, I decided to flash them over the previous versions of the roms to check if everything worked and because its a pain to set up all the homescreens again.

Then I thought why not flash them on top of each other and see what happens. So i proceeded to wipe dalvik and cache (but did not do full data wipes) between each Rom zip flash and well.... it worked... flashed carbonite over super and then nils over carbonite... I am surprised that i got no FCs in the process. Just thought I would share that. Left scratching my head...

I am no dev but is this not supposed to work?
[Droid Incredible General] dpwhitty11:
Well, they are all based off IncDoes' Desire Z port. He is the man who made it all possible, so that is why they all agree with each other.
[Droid Incredible General] khanam:
i know but it was still very surprising that i did not come across any FCs or bootloops in flashing them on top of each other. I thought there would be significant changes across the roms by now and objects would be linking differently in some apps....
[Droid Incredible General] mb02:
The only thing a "full wipe" does is erase user data. You were only changing between, essentially, the same rom. There are only minor tweaks and app changes here and there, and of course minor theme changes. The user data was still compatible with the rom so there obviously would be no issue. If you were to, say, flash an AOSP rom over the z, or a vastly different stock sense rom, you would have had problems then.
[Droid Incredible General] khanam:
ah. now i understand... i used to think data would be incompatibe sense rom to sense rom as well...
[Droid Incredible General] gmichaelow:
These ROMs, at least mine anyway, wipe /system. So there isn't really any mixing of system files. I'm not surprised that data would be transferable, as the frameworks and apks should be similar enough.
[Android Apps and Games] Dr. Hax:
Ok, so here's the thing...

My friend recently got an Evo, he's rooted and everything.

And he still swears by task killers! He is by no definition a n00b or anything. He's very 1337 :p

But, we always have a debate on task killers. He is convinced that if he doesn't use a task killer, his Evo will lag lag lag.

Doesn't Android have task killing built-in? Especially for superphones.

I'm one of those people that are 100% convinced that task killers are horrible and will make ANY device lag more. Because the way they work, they kill a task, it re-opens itself, it kills it again, and so on. And in the end, you're using more cpu time and raping your battery. Plus, you're messing with Android's core task-killing functionality, which might **** with important things.

Task kilers: Evil or Good?
[Android Apps and Games] Izkata:
I go with evil, for pretty much the same reason you do. I did use one for a while, but it caused more problems than anything else.

However, I keep one installed (not an automated one), as I have had apps go crazy every once in a while. Usually when I'm working on one of my own.

I have heard that older Android versions (like, 1.6 and lower, I think?) weren't very good at it, making a task killer necessary, but that newer ones no longer need them, hence the confusion.
[Android Apps and Games] azyouthinkeyeiz:
EVIL!!!!!!!!!

The only reason to use one is to kill a rogue app. Taskkiller fans are windows junkies.. always feeling incomplete without a Ctrl + Alt + Dlt.. Stop using the home button and you never have a use for it...

Traced with Ultra Keyboard from my *Epic*
[Android Apps and Games] triggerftu:
EVIL!!!!

why back durring 2.1 and 2.0.1 yes i will say they were once usefull because my phone ran slow w/o it. now with froyo and learning about some of it's inner workings theres really no need for task killers anymore. and with 2.3 comein with strict mode as well i dubble up on what i just said theres no need for task killers.
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Yes, we totally need more threads on task killers..
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
With inspiration from thadedudebutch regarding this THREAD. I used to use "screen off" app to put device asleep with DI01. But something in DJ05 broke it. But figured out that "POWER" is an acceptable command within the KL file. Tap of search button turns device to standby (with no 5 sec delay like all of the apps on the market) and long press of search button brings up power shut down options. Flash via cwm. If you don't like it flash the revert file below.

This works with DJ05/DL09 and should be no problem with DI01.

*Edit* This has been confirmed to work with ED01 and all roms (froyo)

*Edit* Edify zips Added. And don't forget edify zips can be used with CWM2.5 and 3.

*Edit* Added seperate versions of this mod for aosp builds (aosp, CM7, MIUI, OMGB, and OMFGB)

And this can only be used for shutting down or putting device to sleep. The search button will not wake device up.

And this is meant for the Verizon Fascinate. Others may try at their own risk. I accept no responsibility mistakes or borked devices.

*Bonus for comm rom 1.3 users in the quote*

*Edit* Had someone in irc request for the Camera to be opened from the search button. Updated thatdudebutch's mod from here to edify zip. The search key can be used to open the camera and also be used as a shutter button (long press to focus and release to shoot) or simply just push the search to snap picture. And once again use revert file from below to undo changes.

*AOSP Note* Since this mod mirrors the the command of the power button it may or may not work as a shutter button depending upon the features and or settings of the camera apk for that build.

*****You only have the choice of camera or power. They can't be used together.

*****Zips are intended to be installed with proper recovery.

Use edify.zip for Touch Wiz based roms.

Use AOSP.zip for (CM7, MIUI, AOSP, OMFGB, and OMGB)

Thanks, thatdudebutch for getting the gears turnin' in the old noggin.

Thanks, zantopad for DL09 testing and confirmation.

Thanks, LOLFests for the hours of sweaty t-shirtless testings and confirmation of edify zips.

Thanks, to Me for testing edify zips with CWM2.5 :p

Thanks to dw77x an InPocket for AOSP build testings.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] zantopad:
Thanks for this! I now use this more than the dedicated power button!
[Fascinate Android Development] BlackHoleSlam:
So it doesn't work for the DL09
[Fascinate Android Development] zantopad:
I'm using it with DL09 no problems... I'm using adrynalyne's de-binged, de-bloated deodexed DL09.
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Wow, this is clever xD
[Fascinate Android Development] crispybacon:
Awesome, gonna have to check this out...thanks bro! keep it up :P

*victory bong rips*
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
OP updated with edify scripts. I'm touched that someone actually cares for this mod like I do.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] kylesag21:
Well guys im running the comm rom 1.3 with the crysis theme. but when I flash the edify version it does not convert my search key into the power key. Any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] tysdad08:
Edify one wont download more then 74% for me
[Fascinate Android Development] DevinLeFevere:
Just worked for me. Also this rules!
[Fascinate Android Development] dw77x:
See, nothing wrong with digging up an old thread! I am glad I have this now.
[Fascinate Android Development] djlim4:
Awesome, thank you, I love this mod... Can't live w/o it
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Hmmm, Had a number of people test it running cwm3 in irc with no issues.

Having no issues on a pc. Could be the xda app.

***Also added option for Camera in OP.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] djlim4:
i'm running comm rom 1.3 with crysis theme and i flashed this with no problems. Downloaded through tapatalk.

btw, the power remap will also take pictures with the search button... i guess cuz the comm rom has the power button mapped for camera function. anyway thought that was pretty cool
[Fascinate Android Development] calebv2:
Just wondering I think button remapper for galaxy s.does the same thing right
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
It appears to at a small price :D. App Here. I guess for someone looking for some deeper modifications they can go that route. But this is just something I've always incorporated in my own private roms and if others like having just the mod without a having a paid app running than this is the way to go ;).

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] calebv2:
remapper for galaxy s

is a much better app
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Is this something you use? The description and the user review for the fascinate doesn't seem positive. SEE HERE. But still costs money. :cool:

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] Bob-o:
Which one do I use to hit search button to sleep? Little confused. What is the camera one for? Call me stoopid, but I didn't understand which is one. I know the revert puts it back to normal.
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
PowerRemap = Power control gets mapped to search button controlled as indicated in op.

CameraRemap = Maps camera.apk to search button for quick execution of opening camera.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] Bob-o:
Can I flash both? Or do I have to pick just one? Lol.
[Fascinate Android Development] Bob-o:
Also, im on cwr 3.0.2.5 not the otb new one. Eill these work ok on my cwr? Thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Only one can be used for the function of choice. But if the power function is used and you are on comm rom 1.3 then while the camera is open the search will still function as shutter (but long press still brings up reboot options) **edit just realized the comm rom has the same function with long press of power bringing up reboot options.

Not sure, Give it the old college GO. :p

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] islandtime:
Camera remap wont work for me. on UKB, keeps bringing up search. I would love to have this thought as i dont use my search button.
[Fascinate Android Development] aes55:

downloaded and flashed twice with no luck :(

any thought? i'd really like to get this working!
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
It's weird that some have issues and some don't. OP updated with new files to include scripts from Adrynalyne. Hopefully these will mount properly for all versions of CWM3. Keep me posted.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] n3os33k3r:
works fine with the edify script now. thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] bmangia1:
Took on the second flash for me.

Cool mod.

Thanks.
[Fascinate Android Development] bmeek:
Thanks for this chopdogg!

Fyi, I've had a very minor issue - when I want to do a long-press on the search button to get to the boot menu, the phone sleeps immediately (before the long-press resisters). This is intermittent.

l had a similar issue trying to grab a screen shot... The back-key would act before I could press the power button (thus leaving the screen I was trying to capture :-).

Anyway, I like the mod!
[Fascinate Android Development] aes55:
update fixed it for me!

thanks for the great mod, chopper!
[Fascinate Android Development] islandtime:
Updated link worked for me just fine, thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] pkopalek:
Way interested in this for long-press of the search button.

See, I use the search button all the time (searching for music in my library when I'm playing it, searching Google, etc)

I so rarely use Voice Search that it'd be very helpful to have it open the camera.

I think it's in one of those keyboard layout files?
[Fascinate Android Development] djlim4:
any chance getting this over to the AOSP builds?

or is there some simpler already developed way that I dont know
[Fascinate Android Development] akellar:
if your on CM7 you can map the camera to the search button in the options
[Fascinate Android Development] wjsmaggle:
For those of us on MIUI, is there anything we can do?

Edit: I should clarify, I'd like to have the camera shutter button mapped to power like in CommRom.
[Fascinate Android Development] dw77x:
I agree, now that CM7 is my daily driver I really miss this.
[Fascinate Android Development] akellar:
It's in the options in cm7.
[Fascinate Android Development] dw77x:
Thanks for the reply, I was actually referring to the power to search remap.
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Wanna give this a shot? Flash in recovery.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] dw77x:
Thank you sir! I'm thrilled to have it back :D
[Fascinate Android Development] InPocket:
Just flashed (on MIUI). Results are:

* holding the search button brings up the reset phone options

* while in the camera the power button turns off the phone

Thanks anyway for your effort
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
That sounds about right. In the touch wiz builds the camera apk would lock the camera with a press of the power button. So when the phone is "awake" the command for the power button is mirrored by the search key. And I bet the camera apk in miui will act the same way with a press of the hardware power button. See OP for a revert back to search to get them back to normal.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] dw77x:
Does the phone actually turn off or does the screen turn off (phone asleep)? if the latter it sounds like it's working properly.
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Thank you so much for testing this dw77x and InPocket! Didn't expect someone on miui to flash it so fast. But making sure that the toch key files are the same on both roms. And I guess I can update op for all AOSP based roms too.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] InPocket:
Edit: phone sleeps -- just the screen turns off
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Then it's doing what it should. If the camera apk for miui was edited to identify a power button press as the camera shutter then the command would work out. But from what I read it seems that assigning the power button as the shutter is possible in CM7 so then the command would then be mirrored using the PowerToSearch mod.

OP updated with zips that cover all of the current AOSP builds for the fascinate. Checked all aosp roms and they share the same common file and button mapping. Where as Touch Wiz had it's own specific file that was different from aosp.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] djlim4:
Awesome... Been missing this since comm rom and all I had to do was ask
[Fascinate Android Development] InPocket:
Maybe someone on MIUI can better answer this question, but is there a way to map the power button to take the picture whilst in camera mode?

I ask since we are discussing mapping buttons in this thread.
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
I will run it past andmer in passing on irc. On touch wiz sir Gizmodroid made that edit to the camera apk for us. But to make miui do that it requires a deeper edit within the camera apk that is far above my attention span and knowledge :p.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] kallell:
i would love this too.
[Fascinate Android Development] InPocket:
I appreciate your attention to the request. Thank you, sir.
[Fascinate Android Development] wjsmaggle:
I would love to have power mapped to shutter, but what you've done is a great temporary fix! I appreciate all of your work with this and I will be hitting the thanks button as soon as I hit "submit reply!"
[Fascinate Android Development] kallell:

[G Tablet General] dougmod:
I just exchanged my g tablet at office depot and before I put clockwork recovery on the new one, I decided to update it to see what changes were made to the stock g tablet shell as I have been running vegan for a while. The tablet boots and runs as it should, but I cannot get into recovery mode. I hold power and volume + on boot and it says Dectect recovery key and it looks like it is going to boot into the stock recovery but then it goes to a screen where it looks like the tablet is updating (as if it was installing a new firmware) for about 10 seconds, then reboots into the OS...any ideas as to why I cannot get in?

thanks
[G Tablet General] samepic:
I don't think the stock firmware's recovery mode has anything like the Clockworkmod's menu. The stock's recovery mode basically looks for a recovery folder and an update.zip in the internal sdcard's root directory and that is. Since there isn't a recovery folder and a file named update.zip in your internal sdcard's root directory therefore the behavior you observed was correct when you tried to boot into recovery mode. You will have to install the Clockworkmod to give you a more advanced recovery tool on the gtab.

Follow this link by scsione889 to install Clockworkmod on stock rom.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865017
[G Tablet General] woneill1701:
What you are describing sounds very much like a successful update via the standard recovery console.

• Are you sure your update didn't work?

• Did you have the update.zip in the root of your sdcard and the command script in the recovery folder?

• What version do you see in the settings screen?

• Did you know that you may need to wipe user data to see the new UI even with the latest ROM?
[G Tablet General] dougmod:
thanks for the replies

The strange thing is, I have done all of these things. I just did the same steps I did with the old tablet and cannot get it to work.

I will reread all of the tutorials and follow your steps..maybe I am missing something:confused:? I just dont see what I am missing..

Here are my steps.

DL clockworkmod.

Put it in the root of my microSD card.

power on device holding PWR and VOL +.

Wait for the viewsonic splash screen to show detect recovery buttons.

Release buttons.

Then gTablet splash screen appears.

then stock android update screen appears as if it is updating something.

about 10-15 seconds later, device reboots to regular OS..

I have also tried these steps putting the clockwork files on the root of the tablet's storage with no luck...It is crazy that I cannot even get into the stock android recovery. I have never had an issue with this as I have had a Droid, Droid X and Droid Incredible and have already modded on tablet..

The only thing that has changed between my tablet and my returned one is the OS version. This one shows 3389 in the settings and I know I never updated my other one.

Did something change with OS 3389?

Heya Folks,

I followed the instructions from http://xdaforums.com/show...43&postcount=1 and applied them to the services.jar from the latest build of MIUI.

See the attached flashable .zip file. I strongly suggest making a nandroid backup due to this being my first attempt at doing this. It booted just fine on my device.

Let me know if it works!

Thanks!

Heya,

Only way to test would be to run a speedtest.net over your 3g connection before and after flashing. My 3G sucks here so I can't really test it. I followed it step by step going off of the instructions however.
