Hi all,

I just brought the LG Optimus One P500 this afternoon and thanks for great info in XD. I managed to rooted the device so smotthly

Question:

after rooting, now how can install/move my applications to my SD card instead of the internal memory.

Previosuly on Samsumg spica there is a tool call App2SD, any similiar tools for LG Optimus One P500

Thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raylgo:
Do you want to install directly to the sd card or just to move them after being installed on the internal memory?

You can move apps around using Settings->Applications since FroYo can do that for you but not all apps can be moved just yet. Other apps can move them forcefully (I use Titanium Backup to do that).

If you want to install to the sd card directly, look for an app called apps2sd. I found it on the market a few months ago and it opened like the Settings menu. It will just ask you where you want apps to go to when you install them. It was really simple. Widgets wont work from the sd card though. Move them to the internal memory and reboot after if you have them on the sd card already.

and make sure you have a fast card if you want to install directly to the sd card.

thanks guy. what i did was export to .vcf file with nbuexplorer(free) to SD Card and save each contact individually (sad). But it was a 1 off job. So this is pretty straightforward.

[Nook Color General] spiffytech:
Is there anything I should know about how a rooted Nook Color acts compared to something that's meant to be a tablet (e.g. the Galaxy Tab) that could influence whether I want one? For example,

This thread has workarounds for a bunch of quirks and problems with the NC. Is it common to need to workaround these and other B&N ROM issues?

I've seem mention of 'porting' apps to the Nook Color. Does this mean I have to do more work to get apps from the market than just hitting 'install'? Do some apps not work on the Nook Color?

It looks like B&N pushes over-the-air software updates to the NC that return it to a stock ROM. Is this easy to prevent? When they push their Q1 update, will it (probably) be easy to apply the update and then get all of my data/settings back, or are updates a pain that I have to put off applying until I have time to reconfigure everything?

Is there anything else I should know?
[Nook Color General] pavlos46:
Well I am not hijacking this forum I just ordered a Nook Color I would cetrainly love to see these questions answered but could I also add a few of my own ?

I am in Europe what kind of usability can I expect from the device, will I be able to register it and what about books.

Also I 've heard there are some touch issues, whats up with that ..? is it true .. any solutions..?

I am following the BT thread and all looks great but what about the USB would we be able at some point to connect ext HDDrives or Webcams ..

Lastly I understand it will only play .mp4 movies anyway around that .......?
[Nook Color General] themirthfulswami:
I will try to give you a couple answers based on my own experiences, though im no expert when it comes to rooting.

Yes there are some quirks with the NC that you wouldn't have to deal with on a regular android tablet. The biggest one is the lack of hardware buttons. There are several software solutions for this, the most effective and stable of which has been "button savior" which you can get in the market.

Some apps font render correctly because of the screen resolution/dpi of the NC. Some of that can be fixed by using an LCD density changing app or altering the setting manually.

You shouldn't have to port apps to run on the NC, but don't be surprised if some apps don't show up in the market. Most stuff works fine though.

As far as i can tell you wont get BN ota updates unless you're on a BN store wifi network. I've been rooted for weeks and i've never seen the 1.01 update pop up. I figure im waiting for the bigger update before i bother reverting to stock and restoring all my apps.

Ill post more stuff as it comes to mind!

posted from my nook color using the official xda app
[Nook Color General] nicbennett:
There are certainly quirks, such as the hardware buttons issue mentioned above. And some apps don't work now, but I imagine other tablets would have similar issues. as android tablets grow in popularity we can expect more compatible apps
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
The B&N ROM does not contain some things that were completely not needed for the device as it was designed, so yes there are workarounds in that thread and on the wiki here: http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Issues

Never heard anything of "porting" apps, only reason would be screen resolution of tablets vs phones. Some apps don't behave nicely on the higher res, either they are in the center of the screen, stretched out and ugly, or simply draw really badly. Most fall into the first two categories.

Yes, your device will query for OTAs and so far nobody has figured out how to safely disable them. Update to 1.0.1 first, then noot it. And when a 1.0.2 or 1.1.0 comes out, expect to do it again. Until someone comes out with a real way to disable the OTAs or a full custom ROM is made.

It generally happens only when plugged in, and almost always unplugging it and turning off the screen and turning it back on the problem goes away. Some folks say it happens more if the screen is dirty, although in my experience with capacitive screens this is not the case.

Highly unlikely, but there are ways to do USB Host drivers on Android phones, so it's possible in the future.

Sure, use something like RockPlayer.
[Nook Color General] deitiphobia:
Other things to note...

Games run fairly well on Nook Color. I've been using Dungeon Defenders (framerate not the best), Antigen, Angry Birds, Fuzzies and Nesoid. They all work pretty well except for poor framerates with Dungeon Defenders.

You'll definately need Button Savior. The LCDDensity app is also good to have and tinker with. You'll want to get NookColor Tools on there as well to change keyboards. Root Explorer also.

It runs pretty much any app that I can run on my Droid.

Dolphin-Mini works great on the Nook Color.

There are some issues with buttons at the screen edges, like the Android Marketplace search icon or tab switching in Dolphin. Adjusting LCD Density with the LCDDensity app will cure that problem. Otherwise you will have to figure out how to tap on the edges for it to register. Mine only does this at the top edge and not on the sides or bottom.

Overall, a great device. Clockwork is well on it's way to being finished. And there are now a few folks jumping on the bandwagon to create custom roms.
[Nook Color General] markiejones:
Rockplayer will play other video types, but wont use hw acceleration and will be choppy. Best to convert to mp4 instead.

In the end i think this tablet is for those who actually enjoy tinkering and tweaking.

Sent from my Nookcolor
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Seems like I say this constantly, but in my opinion you do not need Button Savior, Softkeys included in the Auto Nooter script for 1.0.0 or 1.0.1 works great.
[Nook Color General] supersoulfly:
Exactly. I've enjoyed "fixing" the Nook. But this process could be annoying to many people. Those people would be much happier with an ipad.
[Nook Color General] markiejones:
I agree. When you set softkeys "just so", it's a near-ideal key replacement. The default setup is what throws people off, with the little arrow-guy getting in the way and some confusion regarding the "n" key.

Mine is invisible except when I single tap the "n" key -a double tap gets me "home". That's perfect, and not at all in the way.

So more or less I enjoyed the WP7 browser.

But than I experienced annoying limitations:

1. It doesn't support my banks online banking! Opera Mini can do it, Android browser can do it but IE can't!!

2. IE cannot open this page, what a fckn letdown:

[Windows Phone 7 General] jeffgeno:
I don't know if it supports your country and bank, but I use PageOnce for all my financial tracking on the phone. It's much nicer than fiddling with a mobile site.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Sweet but I talk about bank operations, not finance tracking.
[Windows Phone 7 General] rsacipher:
I have no problem with online banking in the US, I'm not sure if it makes a difference if you set the browser to show mobile or full sites.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Ok I tried to use this nice app.

It even found my bank but first asks for my ID and password what is something

I don't get because things I use to login to my bank are different.

But whichever option I use it tries to connect but than asks me idiotic questions like my first schools town. I give the correct answer but this crap says it is wrong.

So how to use it?! Looks as useless as IE in this regard
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Another IE letdown:

I doesn't display my private messages on this forum!

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Landroid:
first of all, u need to have a rooted device!

Then pull ur existing framework.apk and frameworkTW.apk

Then u search for a theme u want to have on ur tab or u create the icons for urself

then u open with 7zip the original framework and replace the files! U need to watch out that the icons have the same pixel*pixel size if not it wont boot!

when u are ready, replace it with ur original one with

adb shell

su

mount -o remount,rw -t -rfs /dev/block/st19 /system

exit

adb push framework.apk /system/framework/

adb shell

chmod 644 /system/framework/framework.apk

and the same with the other framework file

if this doesnt sound familiar to u, the read what root is, what adb is, what framework is, and what chmod is! OR LEAVE IT as u will brick the device if u dont know what u are doing!
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] natious:
Thanks for that, my device is rooted, and i get an idea on what your on about, if i try and it bricks is it as simple as pushing the orginal apk's back on to fix things up?

[myTouch 4G General] hydrogenman:
I will tell ya, I have been extremely disappointed by my new MT4G's battery since I got it just before Christmas.

If I unplug at 7am to work (I work at home) I can bring it in, not use it all morning, and by 2 pm I was looking at 70% battery with almost zero use? If I used the phone at all, I'd be looking at charging it by 3 pm.

Needless to say, if I went to sleep, I HAD to have the thing plugged in to charge as it was draining very fast while doing nothing.

Never really could figure out why, but yesterday mid day I installed Cyanogenmod 7 on a full charge and it's 7:53 am today (I didn't plug my phone in to charge last night) and I'm still at 50%.

No juice defender, nothing, didn't plug it in (I forgot, and when that usually happens my alarm doesn't go off because it's dead).

If you're having massive battery issues.......try CM7...I had tried everything on glacier roms to get better life. My phone would randomly wake up...now it doesn't.

Anyone have a similar experience moving to CM Roms?
[myTouch 4G General] beelbeel:
That sounds like it might be worth checking out, but I will wait until the official cm7 release is out.

I am using setcpu to underclock my phone while the display is off. I unplug at around 8 AM, and I can get to 1 or 2 pm with 98-99% of my battery remaining with no use. I went to sleep last night around 12 with 29% left, and I woke up at around 9 with about 27% left. I should also add that I spent a pretty solid amount of time yesterday browsing the internet and playing angry birds, so I was pretty pumped to have that kind of battery left at the end of the day.
[myTouch 4G General] hydrogenman:
what's weird is I could play a game a lot, or do something considered heavy use and I really wouldn't get a ton of battery drain. It would drain a lot when I seemingly wouldn't do anything.

I too have setCPU profiles, and had to use JuiceDefender to even make it to the evening with light use.

I've had 4 different Android phones now, this was the only one that acted like this (all were battery hogs, but nothing on this level...Droid, N1, Vibrant, MT4G)

as far as waiting on CM7.....I didn't see any reason to wait. Everything seems to work very great with the newest builds and I don't really have many/any issues.

Was worth the switch for me to fix the battery issues with the stock I was having.

I STILL think it had to be a wake issue...ie, the phone waking a bunch during the night and turning the screen on/processes on. I haven't noticed CM7 randomly wake my phone once since I changed.

of course, it could be something kernel related too

Trying to solve audio stuttering...

I'm currently running the Eclair build from Kenia from

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=827537

Like the speed, most things working fine.

... but playing media results in audio stutter.

Problem is apparently well known and affects more devices, see also

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=711692&page=364

Indeed, killing battery service solves stuttering, but I'd like to keep it running, of course :)

Any build/kernel out there that does not suffer from this?

I'd like to find out what's different, since in the past it seemed to have worked, but with pushing more accurate battery readout in the latest kernels, this problem was introduced...

Maybe just putting an old battery service in a current kernel could work?

Cheers,

Robbert
[Touch HD General] g3rm0:
I can confirm that audio shuttering is a common problem, but I wasn't aware it can be related to the battery code. Can anyone check if killing battery service helps with shuttering audio (youtube maybe?) on other build (e.g. FRX03)?

TBH battery code is unfinished since Camro (the guy who did most of it) bricked his phone. If it's really a kernel issue maybe I'd could build test kernel w/o battery code sometime next week.
[Touch HD General] kruijs:
Hi, g3rm0,

Always happy to do some more testing! :)

Took me some time to get a FRX03 build back working (not my daily build, Froyo is just too slow on blackstone, I'm afraid)

Anyway: Using the FRX03 build from

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=711692

(full package, so using the included rootfs, zimage and modules.)

I can *confirm* that audio still stutters, and also on this build stuttering immediately disappears when battery service is killed!

Hope it helps?

If there's need to test different rootfs/zimage/modules/startup/..., just let me know!

Actually, for me, I just want to disable battery service so I can listen to music on my 15min bike ride to work!

But I am a linux Noob, so although "kill -9" is in my power to stop the service, actually restarting a service is momentarily out of reach...

Any help with restarting the [battery] service would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Robbert
[Touch HD General] Stickman89:
You don't need to compile a kernel tbh, why don't you just create an init script which includes the "kill -9 28" command? The init script will get launched on startup therefore killing the battery service as desired.

Best Regards,

ST1Cl<^^aN
[Touch HD General] kruijs:
Hi, Stickman89,

Yes, I read this also somewhere, thanks for reminding me!

My bigger wish is to be able to restart the battery service after finishing listening to music, not having to restart Android (and first WinMo) because that takes way too much time.

How do I restart the service, any idea?

Cheers,

Robbert
[Touch HD General] Stickman89:
well to do that you would need to install a mobile terminal app from the market and create two scripts, one to disable the service and the other to enable it. Only problem is this would not be automated and you would need to execute the script via the terminal app installed.

Best Regards,

ST1Cl<^^aN
