To create a nandroid backup: boot into recovery (power+Vol up - then release power when Samsung screens comes up) Once in recovery, scroll down to backup/restore and create a backup.

One another note: I cannot get widget locker to work on this rom. I noticed you had it working in your video..
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jinsoku3g:
yeah I just downloaded it from the market, worked fine. thats weird!! if i do the backup will you guys get all my contacts and data? apps/settings? its apps and settings all combined
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Boushh:
Yeah. I wouldn't share a full nandroid. It will have all of your personal information.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jinsoku3g:
Yeah I thought so.. i've used Nandroid backups for my own switching of roms, I figured he was talking about doing it a little different or some thing..

Ganjdroid has started a how to thread for this layout. I'm putting together another video right now with a little more of a how to. I updated quite a bit on my tab today, still not quite finished, but its coming along
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] digao100nocao:
Hello again mate!

Sorry for that. I thought you have a clean install of Boushh's v3 and just installed the themes.. Realy sorry! A nandroid backup will have ALL your personal info (contacts, email, etc) and programs..

In case you have a clean install, it would be awesome if you could do that. :D

Thanks and have a nice week!

@Boushh

Man, your ROM and Kernel is superb!!!!

Thanks for sharing your work.. We all are very grateful to you!!

V3 is lighting fast and no FC so far!!

I'm waiting for the V3 final or maybe v4 :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] dedrics:
HELP!!!!!!! I flasehd the rom succesfully with Kernel....Everything is ok. But I get a lot of Acore force closes an email force closes, Contacts wont work, corporate email wont work. I uninstalled and reinstalled facebook...same problem...I selected manual sync same problem...I waited over night same problem....I factory reset ...same problem. What in the world am i missing here....
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Shiftyshadee:
Try using Titanium Backup to freeze the email app and then reboot. That did it for me.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jinsoku3g:
Any fix on Camcorder?

Just out of curiousity, are you working on any updates? Or should we kick back for a little bit? I'm trying to figure out how to make my own, but havent really gotten far yet
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] 2girls1cup:
Yeah I was also curious about the development for this rom. It kinda sucks that Verizon tab users seem to have just one dev
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnie_rz:
I have s-ffed my phone today, all went well. I then flashed the Oxygen HBOOT, and again everything was fine.

I then used recovery to flash Redux 1.0.0 RC4, which all went fine. I can access android and it's nice, quick and looks good.

However, I have two problems:

1. My microSD card won't mount, however it will under clockwork and i can put files on it from my MAC.

2. I cannot download apps from the Market. Is this a consequence of not being able to mount the microSD card?

I have reformatted the microSD in Clockwork, just in case.

This is frustrating cos i can't put my pics and music back on the card, or add in any other apps.

I would post in the development section, but i can't cos i haven't reached the right number of posts.

Any body got any ideas?

Thanks,

Jon.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Changelog for Redux RC4

Redux v1.0.0-RC4

Now fits in a 90MB /system partition (Oxygen HBOOT table can be used, however I will not offer support for this);
Market downloads now go to '/sdcard/Android';

As for your mounting problem, the format for the SD needs to be FAT32 (but you already knew that). I guess you can try to manually mount it in Settings > Storage see if that works. If not then I guess you can flash it again and see if that does anything.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnie_rz:
Thanks for the reply.

Should've read the chaneog again :rolleyes:

The sd card is still not being detected, and the mount option under storage is greyed out. I have formatted several times, and yes I did know that it should be FAT32, and reflashed three times.

I know the card and phone are ok, because i can mount it in recovery and transfer to it.

I have my FAT32 as the first partition and a 1Gb ext3 as the second.

Any more ideas?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnie_rz:
Ok, sorted it now. Went back and did a full phone wipe again and recreated the ext3 partition.

If anything I may have forgotten to wipe the dalvik-cache first time around, but i'm not sure.

Anyways, all good now :D

Edit: Also had to manually create directory for market downloads
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
I would of said just wipe data and caches but you beat me to it :P
[Streak 5 General] vasishta.sushant:
I was hoping to use this device as my music source but now that I've got it, I am highly disappointed. I expected it to be at least equal to my netbook's sound card but somehow it didn't perform.

Currently I am using Head Direct RE-0 with the Streak. Well these are high impedance IEMs and this may be the reason why I am not getting a good output so I am planning to try some other IEMs and thats precisely why I created this thread.

Can you guys recommend me something, if you've tried or already using them.

Did anyone try the Monster Turbines with the Streak ? Dell itself is selling these so I am hoping someone might have bought them. Can I get some impressions ?

I know I may be asking too much but and expecting too much from this device, but "One Device For All" was my thought behind buying this device.

BTW I've tried some other audio tools in the market (read poweramp) but the SQ of default player is way better so sticking to that and thus my only option left is another pair of IEMs. Suggest me some :)
[Streak 5 General] Qsilver2001:
Think you hop over to headfi for your quest which you might have a better chance of finding answers. I personally still using imod > amp > custom instead of a phone to achieve "audiophile" quality.
[Streak 5 General] rebski:
I have already posted my observations here on a similar thread a few months ago, so please bear with me if I don't repeat myself.

My interest in responding is that you have the very same IEMs as me. I also have IE8s with custom moulds which formed the basis my original post so I thought to try again with the RE0s in the light of your comments.

My experience with the RE0s is good, though my preference lies with the IE8s. I use PowerAMP with equaliser set to Off and my files are FLAC.

Having spent much time on HeadFi I know that these things can be subjective, so to each his own, but I am very pleased with the Streak as an audio player.

FWIW my reference is iBassoD10 and iRiverH140 with optical digital interconnect.
[Streak 5 General] vasishta.sushant:
^^^

I am glad to hear that and thanks a lot for your observations.

Somehow to me the sound signature of PowerAmp did sound thin and with the already "not so warm" RE-0, the overall experience wasn't that great.

Another thing is that I am not in a position to spend a lot on the IEMs so IE8 won't be possible for me.

Can you suggest me something under 100USD or max 150USD, that you think can work great with the Streak ?
[Streak 5 General] iphonepimp:
look around amazon. i got my ie8s for about 200 bucks US

I also use an audio technica portable headphone amp (one of those pocket ones) improves the sound quality a lot more
[Streak 5 General] rebski:
I would agree exactly with that. It is as if the Streak produces the wrong characteristics for the RE0.

I was very impressed when I used the Streak with the IE8s but less so with the RE0.

It is a sidetrack, on the other hand the Sansa Clip works well with the RE0. This sort of synergy is great when it works out in our favour and frustrating when it doesn't.

If you like I could try the Streak/RE0 combination with a Fiio E5 amplifier.
[Streak 5 General] vasishta.sushant:
I would prefer to use this device as my main source since I hate carrying multiple things all the time. Thats why looking for just an IEM upgrade to fix everything :)

Yes please, if thats not much of a trouble. Would be highly appreciated.
[Streak 5 General] rebski:
This is a rather quick impression with the E5.

With the Bass Boost On the mid/lower range is much more filled out and emphasised and overall is preferable. However the treble correspondingly suffers which is not preferable. With the Bass Boost Off I would prefer the unamp’d Streak.

Contrary to the opinions over at HeadFi I am not a fan of amp’d headphone out signal. The only way it makes sense is to have a dedicated Line Out, preferably digital. Otherwise what is being amplified is the signal from an inferior source amplifier.

Maybe someone will make a PDMI Line Out Dock, now that would be something.

If you can get the E5 cheap enough it might be worth trying, I paid £7.50 for mine so can’t complain and worth it just to have the option available. But £17 seems a bit steep. Though you can get them on eBay for about £12. It is easy to get into a law of diminishing returns with these things.

Personally I would just accept the nature of the Streak/RE0 combination and enjoy the open spaciousness and clarity and see the lack of bass as a tradeoff. Not all music needs a strong bass.
[Streak 5 General] gadaga:
Hi,

Personally I find that whatever I use as earphones, I have a hard time accepting the noise level on the streak. When playing music at a medium volume, the noise is really very very present.

I suppose there is no work around is there? Doesn't this bother you for serious listening?
[Streak 5 General] rebski:
Hi

You surprise me there. What do you mean by noise level? I don't understand.

My Streak is pefectly quiet apart from the the music that is playing.
[Streak 5 General] vasishta.sushant:
^^^

I get that noise as well. Its there as long as the music application is working and goes away when the app is closed. Sure is irritating.

I've found another way to get my music working.

Found this app foobar2000remote control or something. If this works on my streak, I can just put away my audio rig away, snap on the earphones and lie down on my bed, leaving myself to the music. All the foobar controls will then be accessible from my streak.

But again, this app is not working YET for me. I was able to test it out on http, on my netbook. Just that the streak is still being able to communicate with my netbook's foobar.

Soon !!!!
[Streak 5 General] gadaga:
O dear! You're a luck mann! I have a noise in the background whenever playing. When I put the music in pause, the noise disappears after a second (automatic mute control I think), but as soon as I play again, the nois is there, very present! It is a constant level of noise, independent of the volume I set the music to. When I set volume to max, the music is so loud (too loud!) that I don't hear the noise anymore. But when setting it to say 70 perecnt, the noise is too presnt. Its ok-ish... but it definetly is not good (no hifi installation or decent MP3 player produces that much noise).

Any idea where this might come from? How come you have no noise???

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] fatdragonincp:
I also have the noise problem. I am using a UM3X and the quality is good enough except the background noice is very annoying. Is there anyway to cancel the background noice?
[Streak 5 General] rebski:
I really am sorry that so many have this as an issue. I only began using my Streak as a music player with DJ_Steve's 2.2 early builds. What version Android are you on?

Could it be Os related I wonder. I am on DJ_Steve's latest 1.7 build.
[Streak 5 General] gtg203a:
I too get this background noise, as well as a subtle "click" sound when the audio output is turned off/on. I've been contemplating Bluetooth headphones as a work around...
[Streak 5 General] hp79:
This really sucks.. Why are we having this hiss noise? I'm on build 347, stock from dell. It's only been couple days since I got mine.

I saw in DJStreak's mod, there's volume boost mod, but my earphone volume levels are perfectly fine. So I don't think I need any boost feature. It's just the background hiss noise. It stays on the same level of noise whether I up the volume or play music in low volume.
[Streak 5 General] valest:
Everything is fine on my streak,no hiss electricity sound.Still,I think my philip mp3 can do a better job than the streak.
[Streak 5 General] briansj:
No hiss for me either. I'm on 351. Didn't try with 347 when I got the Streak last week.
[Streak 5 General] niftydl:
There are several things going on here, I think.

1. The majority of Dell's hardware is identical to the Nexus One, Incredible, etc. Those generation phones probably used the same hardware. That hardware is not particularly impressive when it comes to providing clear headphone audio. Its is possible that some phones are better than others, but unlikely. It is probably due to Reason #2.

Here is the RightMark test for the Nexus: http://www.swedroid.se/rightmark/Google Nexus One/googlenexusone.htm

Here is an iPhone 4 + couple of other phones: http://www.swedroid.se/rightmark/optimus2x/rightmark.htm

The iPhone has a lower noise floor and overall cleaner headphone amp (harmonic distortion esp).

2. The circuit buzz we hear mostly shows up with high end/high sensitivity headphone and in-ear monitors. I think it is a lot less noticeable with basic earbuds.

Also, everyone has a different level of hearing.

To conclude, no - this phone is not a good source for FLACs with good headphones. It is good enough for Pandora streaming and MP3s. If you are serious about portable sound quality, I would look for a dedicated DAP of some kind. It hurts me to say, but to this day many phones haven't matched the Apple headphone amp/DAC chips. I would love to finally own a phone where I can consolidate all my geeky needs.
[Android Software Development] Skumtomten:
Hello! i have started making an app for android, and im really really a beginner. however, i got the app working (its a soundboard) but i would like a info screen to pop up when you start the app. i think its really easy to do, but i totally have no idea of how to doing it... can someone please help me? :)
[Android Software Development] Skumtomten:
bump... can someone help me quick with this minimal problem...
[Android Software Development] martino2k6:
OK, this should be pretty simple.

Create a boolean value in the shared preferences, let's call it firstRun. In onCreate() you will check whether this value exists in the preferences. If it does not (or if it's set to true), you know it's the first run and you can show a dialog and set the value to false. If the value exists and is set to false (once you access the value for the first time it will automatically be created in the preferences), then you won't show anything as it is not the first run.

Showing a changelog is just an extension of this process.

[EVO Shift 4G General] jordanetodd:
I just noticed this today, after having my phone for over a week, but if I hold my phone along the bottom while its upright, the signal will drop significantly and wimax signal drops a bar or two. As soon as I hold it in landscape it goes back to normal. Not sure if this is because of a coincidence or not yet, so I'm looking to see if anyone else has noticed this.

My shift is stock perm rooted, so that could have something to do with it too, I'm going to play around with my phone and see if I can't figure it.

This is a common issue with the EVO Shift 4g, and it is because of the placement of the Antenna.

http://member.america.htc.com/download/Web_materials/Manual/EVO_Shift/Evo_shift_UM.pdf

Take a look on Page 252 (264 in Adobe) and see what I mean...

It doesn't completely block any signal, but it does reduce it by a bar or two, but I've learned to deal with it by holding the phone in my left hand rather than my right when using data.

Have you tried long pressing and choosing : save link as....?
[G Tablet General] jbro06:
I just purchased the gtab after careful deliberation and i have just one woe.... The only way to get internet access here is to connect to the local provider through the wireless routers they have distributed throughout the installation... Thats the easy part... after that you have to connect using a PPPOE vpn.... i do this with my laptop but i want to use my gtab on the net also.. call me greedy... So my question is; is it possible in anyway to connect to their VPN? Or maybe bridge the connection between my lappy and the gtab?
[G Tablet General] jooky2000:
It might be possible thru Bluetooth? That is if your laptop has Bluetooth. Otherwise I think you will need a small wifi router or something and setup ICS (Internet Connection Sharing).
[G Tablet General] Goat_For_Sale:
Bluetooth won't work....

You can use VPN software on your tab but that needs specific settings [ the same from your lap top ] just need to find compatible VPN software for the tab that will work with your network.

Easiest solution is to use your laptop as a wireless router.

depending on your OS [ assuming windows ] there are many guides online on how to set it up.

May be as easy as selecting your network connection and turning on network sharing....

Goodluck homie

EDIT: i don't know what your base's restrictions are but if your "tech" team helped set up your laptop they should help on the tab too.
[G Tablet General] TheShamsMan:
My recommendation as well.
[G Tablet General] jayune:
well im not sure i understand all you said but theres a progran i use call connectify that let you share you laptop internet by creating a hotspot so try it out and post your result
[G Tablet General] jbro06:
thanks for your quick replies ill try each of the suggestions out and post the results afterwards... hopefully one of them will help
[G Tablet General] Goat_For_Sale:
What OS is your laptop ? i can probably pull the steps pretty quick
[G Tablet General] jbro06:
Wow connectify worked amazingly thanks alot... i am now net capable on my Tab.. thanks again
[G Tablet General] comfort69:
Make sure you restrict your hot spot on your laptop to the mac address of your tab and see if you can hide your ssid as well. The base techs lock you down to VPN access for their security so they will not like you opening up their network for everyone to access using your vpn connection.
[G Tablet General] jbro06:
Thats not necessary as the internet we have is not supplied by the base techs.. we get our personal internet from a local civilian contractor called IO Global.... and the thrid country nationals they have working the branch are no where near enough tech savvy to care what im doing... but thank you for your concern...

Thanks for asking this question. I am in Oki, and having a simular connection problem with my gtab, but the solution provided allowed my to correct my problem as well. Stay safe.

[G Tablet General] GTablet:
Firstly! Thank you to all for your service to our country!!!! As the people in Egypt are finding out FREEDOM is not FREE.

Second... I do not know which ROM you are using; however Clemsyn's KERNEL does support configuring VPN on your tablet. Please go to this thread for more information:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=895825

With the above you should be able to configure your tablet and be able to roam around your area without having to go through your laptop.

This should meet the need you have :-)

I hope the above helps and stay low !!!!
[G Tablet General] 999ping:
You should at least consider doing this anyway, for your own peace of mind: you don't want some random stranger abusing your network connection or potentially accessing your personal data, do you? You wouldn't take chances with your physical security I am sure. Your data security is important too.

Thank you for serving your country, stay safe out there. :)
[G Tablet General] ckelly33:
+100!

Yes, thank you!
[G Tablet General] jbro06:
thanks everyone for both your support of my mission and of my gtablet... I will most definitely try out the clemsyn kernel and see what comes of it because then i could roam the entire base.. And as far as hiding the ssid, i really dont think thats warranted as the people in my unit or anyone else in the area are not the type of people that would know how to get around what simple security i have in place.... They arent the type of people that you would encounter on this forum, or any tech forum for that matter.... but thanks for your concern ill keep it monitored and if i dont have the warm and fuzzy i will put more security in place, but at this point its just an inconvenience.....
[G Tablet General] aaltieri:
This may cause some problems. Android some some well documented issues with non-broadcast SSIDs. It may work, it may not. It may work today, but not connect again tomorrow.

You'll need to test different configurations (if you even can hide the SSID) and see what works. But you may NEED to broadcast for the Tab to connect (again).

Also, from a security stand point, hiding the SSID adds nothing, really. Restrict access to the MAC address and you'll be fine. Use WPA2 if at all possible.

And I'll add to the thanks for serving. You are a true American hero.
[G Tablet General] jayune:
lol my first thanks lol you welcome man, i agree hiding your ssid does nothing as far as i know connectify does not work unless password protected and the default method is wpa2, even with the usual method of wpa hacking, macc address filtering should cover you so your good and thanks for tour service man
[G Tablet General] OsieKhan:
Jbro,

Thanx so much for starting this thread. I've been "there" and am going back to the same place and forgot that they use pppoe there! And I agree, you don't want to deal with the response from them when you tell them what you're doing.

It sucks bad enough standing in the line in the first place.

Have they improved connection speeds? It used to be steady but nothing to write home about. Also, can you a wifi signal base wide now?
[G Tablet General] jbro06:
Its still nothing special unfortunately... there are different packages you can get.. i get the platinum package which is $100/ month and i get 125kb down/ 75kb up.... its just enough to download what i need to get my fix... lol... just takes awhile... You can get wifi base wide however, each area has there own dedicated kiosk and the username and password you get for one area will not work in another...
