[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] 0vermind:
I was wondering if anyone could post the Gallery3D.apk from Froyo 2.2.1 or preferably Gingerbread. I'm running Froyo and I accidentally deleted my Gallery3D.apk

Could anyone help me out? :(

Thanks!!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaunbu:
Would it be possible to just create a symbolic link for some large .apk files and create space this way instead of going the whole apps2sd route? Would rather use the faster internal phone memory for most of my apps and the SD card for larger ones I use less, it seems a shame to waste all that internal memory.

Also I've noticed lots of free space in /dev (12k used, 140.12MB free) and /etc (shared with /system and maybe others) (207.87MB used, 144.75MB free). Could the symlink point to somewhere on one of these partitions instead to use the faster internal memory (obviously leaving plenty free) and remove the reliance on the SD card or is this a really bad idea?

Apologies if something similar has already been mentioned, couldn't find it, or if this question is really stupid.

Regards

Is it possible to use JTAG through USB to unbrick Optimus One that will not boot up at all (as in dead, no logos, no emergency mode, no recovery)?

If yes, how can I do this?

Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Deleted member 3252403:
Ok, skip the USB cable. Can I disassemble my phone and JTAG a bootloader and custom recovery on it, in order to unbrick it (I cannot turn on at all!!!)

Has anyone been able to get any of the root Wifi tethering apps to work with the Droid X?

I used z4root to root my Droid X running Android 2.2.1, and I tried the "Wireless Tether" and "Barnacle Wifi Tether" apps, but neither seems to work for me. They both run, and create a wireless network I can detect from a laptop, but when I try to connect, I'm able to connect briefly but then immediately get disconnected. I've tried it with and without encryption enabled, and changing channel, but nothing seems to work.

The comments for both apps seem to show hit-or-miss results, with some people like me having no luck, while it works perfectly for others. Is there something I'm missing?
[Droid X General] ksmitchell:
I have been using Wireless tether since 2.1 and never have had issues. The latest version of Wireless tether now offers access point instead of peer to peer, very nice. What OS on the laptop?
[Droid X General] Cerinin:
I've tried it with two laptops running Ubuntu 10.04. Both laptops report the wireless network is "Ad hoc". With encryption disabled, they can connect briefly, but then get disconnected. With encryption enabled, and using WEP (Passphrase), they can't connect at all, reporting "bad password".
[Droid X General] ksmitchell:
Have you installed the newest version of Wireless tether? The newest version shows as an access point not ad hoc anymore. When I run it.
[Droid X General] ksmitchell:
Also I am running 2.3.340 on my X.
[Droid X General] Cerinin:
I just switched Linux network management daemons, and now I'm able to tether. I had been using Wicd, which apparently has a known bug about not being able to properly connect to ad hoc networks. I switched to Network Manager, and now I'm was able to connect.

I just updated Wifi Tether yesterday, and it was still showing as ad hoc.

Hmm mine is showing up as Infrastructure I updated today. Looks to be 2.0.6 according to the about screen.

Touchwiz is Samsung's UI, this one is from the new LG phones, they do look really similar though. I would think that it should be possible though, I am actually still using the the LG calendar that someone ripped from a previous LG phone.
[Android Apps and Games] spg76:

O yeah i forgot to add, that I probably will try to make a review of every device I own. And in medio 2011 I believe, I will be posting things on youtube.
[HD Mini General] hazhysalon:
I think this review was very biased cos I have htc hd mini and I really don't like it. Sometimes, I feel that I made a mistake buying it. If you have a friend to buy one, I will sell mine for $100 less than the market price.:)
[HD Mini General] JHTCHD:
I wasn't trying to be biased really, If I didn't like it at all I would have said that out front.

And giving in the fact that I did expect more, it was more the fact that I wanted more options to do something with it than it being a crappy device.

Sorry can't help you there, with selling your phone.

Take care!
[HD Mini General] shammanCZ:
I basically agree.

I bought the mini because of its size and functionality of which i heard of from someone else ... not gonna do this kind of mistake anymore. When i bought it i was satisfied .... first month.

After this month full of euphory and for me new experience with hellabuggy HTC Sense, there was bitter awakening waiting for me. The system it uses (WM 6.5-ish) was announced to be droped right after i bought this device, but well, **** happens and there gonna be new system and new ROM i told myself. Oh dear i was wrong .... the device is obviously too slow to run the new OS.

Another cold shower came with the HVGA resolution. It took me a lot of effort to make apps iam used to working on this mini device, developed by some retard who thought HVGA on WiMo will rock. When i see the insane amount of apps for HVGA Android devices and the amount of apps for HVGA WinMo devices which i can count on fingers of one hand of a guy whos working in sawmill i understood theres something wrong with the mini.

The last drop was HTC failsupport (which i was used to to be honest) and the fact that if XDA wouldnt have existed, ill be totally lost ... hence the conclusion and advice for anyone who is even briefly playing with the idea of buying this phone ... DONT DO THAT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!

As for me, ill sell this "great phone" on e-bay and buy myself iPhone, which actually have support and gazzilion apps for lol prices in appstore. This way iam done with anything from HTC ... i had Touch Diamond and Trinity and i still have mini and EVO .. all i can say is HTC always lacked good support and this is not gonna change in the future anytime soon.
[HD Mini General] _Madmatt:
Well, ShammanCZ, I knew that before I bought my Mini. I knew about the HVGA and Windows Phone 7. But however I bought it. Because (with looking to the minimum specs of WP7) I concluded that a WP7-device with this dimensions won't ever come.

Second was the price, a WP7 device would be much more expensive (too because of the minimum specs).

And last but not least, I have had an iPod touch (which is actually the same as iPhone), and I didn't like it at all. Apple just limits you too much. I like the freedom you have with a WinMo device, and 'till now, I'm very satisfied of it!

Okay, HTC Support is very bad, but we can't help it. Thanks to XDA, where you can find lots of good devs and tweaks, this isn't a big deal to me.
[HD Mini General] ledavi:
in my opinion the biggest minus of hd mini is it's screen resolution (you can improve or eliminate the others minuses exept for the resolution ,and here i mean the fact that you can hardly find apps that fit this res) .

For me (and for the other buyers i guess) the plussez are:

-nice handy shape that fits well in every hand and every pocket

-light weight ,you dont get the heavy pocket sensation

-it has dedicated hardware phone button (answering,hanging) ,this was a thing i wanned when i was looking to buy a phone

-the signal is very good even in low signal area and better than other phones (i had an iphone 3g and the signal was much whorst than on mini)

-gps antenna is accurate and faster in finding the sattelites whithout network help,compared to other devices

-resistant case (i have it from more than 6 month now and it looks new even if i'm whering it in the pocket without protection shield except for the screen offcourse ,here i've mounted a shield)

-in conversation sound is loud and clear

THere would be some others but these are the first that came to my mind
[HD Mini General] JHTCHD:
Thank you all for your response to this all.

I agree with almost everything.

I found it interesting that there are so much differences in user experience .

As to this day I am counting off for the iphone 4.

Closed off as ios may be. It offers a more consumer friendly enviroment to my opinion. Than the stand alone feeling I get from HTC.
[HD Mini General] RoSo:
I had HTC universal and Raphael before , I bought HD mini just because of that dimension and that's perfect style.

but it's mean a toy for me after that two devices !

I cannot compare this one with that two ! but I think HD Mini is not such a bad thing that everyone says !

the worse thing of this device is HVGA resolution and you can find applications so hard for that resolution.

if it was VGA ! maybe we loved it ! but now.....
[HD Mini General] JHTCHD:
I agree HVGA has not been the top of game for me.

But then again.. battery life is great on my mini..

calls also.. and it remains a phone so that counts as well:)
[HD Mini General] shasman:
Hi All.

I Think every one made a mistake by looking exterior sleek design. Even me, I bought this HD mini but not happy with this.

In the market thousands of free applications available but this phone doest support.

Even, I cannot install TCPMP player and lot of java based applications...

I dont know what to do. May be I will go for android phone.
[HD Mini General] rigo007:
It's not a HTC HD mini fault if you're not able to: it's only yours!!
[HD Mini General] JHTCHD:
Hmmz sleek design...

I think he has a point... And I am wondering myself, how much this has played a part in me purchasing HTC HD Mini.

I think it did play a part. Because I think it's a great design. Perhaps Shasman is right and some people perhaps, did thought only of the sleek design and did not pay more attention to the specifics.

I myself loved the design, but knew about resolution. I just expected it to pick up. When there is a new Iphone... new games come out for that iphone.

And so I thought , would it have gone for HVGA.

So that's the big bummer for me.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eat it iPhone:
Hey guys, I rooted and installed mikfroyo 4.2 on my evo. I read a bit and thought I had to use recovery to wipe battery data. I did this and since then I have noticed that the battery usage/percent is off.

Ex: 100-90% goes very quickly, then 80% takes much longer.

I just plugged it into my charger at 29% and about 5 mins later its saying 56%.

The battery lasts long enough so I figure the battery is good.

What should I do aside from wiping the battery data? Do I have to calibrate it somehow?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bizdady:
100% - 90% drop off is normal. Should normalize after 80%. There are some battery tricks n tips to charging if you look around. Pretty much consists of charging to full then turning off and charging some more then turn on, turn off and charge some more.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burt Reynolds:
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of posts on this subject. The issue is battery longevity. When the battery reaches 100%, it stops charging (to reduce heat and increase battery life span). It only starts charging again after the battery drops below 90%. So your 100% display is lying to you.

There is a custom kernel that continues to charge the battery at a lower rate once it reaches 100%. You can find it here...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876590

I'm using it with the Evo-NonSense ROM and it's amazing how much better battery life is. I've had the battery meter read 100% for close to an hour after unplugging.

I suppose it's possible I may have to replace the battery sooner due to using this kernel, but that's a price I'm willing to pay.

BR
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sekigah84:
The 100% > 90% is due to the kernel not allowing a trickle charge. Meaning once your phone hits 100% it switches to battery. It doesn't start charging again till it hits 90% or so. So when you unplug your phone, even if it says 100%, it is actually at 90%.

There are kernels that enable trickle charge but there is a debate going around as to whether or not it damages the phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossrocker:
It could be anywhere from 100% - 90% not definately gonna be 90%

A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skylar.sutton:
I've been really confused lately because the meter says 100% when plugged in but the moment I unplug it in the A.M. it cuts over to 92%-96%... this makes sense now.

First and foremost you need to have the 3br. If you do then flash a kernel that has 2e recovery ie hardcores speedmod or chainfires cf root.

Once you do that download darkys rom put it on your internal sd card boot into recovery then choose install zip from sd card.

no, the software is on your phone.

How about the map itself?

For example, google map software is installed on the phone. But the map data is downloaded only when needed. And then overwritten when you download more map data.

As compared to NaviComputer, you can download the entire map data you need. Save it on the phone permanently.
