[Q] GB 2.3.4 T959VUVKH2 and usb accessory support

Hi
One of the major new features with 2.3.4 is the accessory api enabling easy communication with accessories attached to usb. This feature seems not to be included in the current builds of KH2. Could it be added by you guys that now how to rebuild the ROMs? Or is this a feature left out by Samsung?
I've installed according to [ODIN/CWM] GB Ext4 Starter Pack (Aug 18)
Any help greatly appreciated

Looks like you'll need an app that has support:

http://www.xydo.com/toolbar/21771272-using_the_android_open_accessory_api_without_a_nexus

I'm working on an app and is using the com.android.future.usb.accessory library which is what to use unless you are on Honecomb. When I try to install I get a message that installation failed. Checkoing logcat there's a message that the above library is missing.
Reading from the links you provided there seems to be support in cyanogen rom's for accessories but not in these (KH2 and DrHonk KG4)???

[Q] Bluetooth tethering w/o root between android phones

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to develop an Android application in order to enable bluetooth tethering between two android phones without the need of root permissions.
I found in the market PdaNet as example..
How is it possible to create such an application?
Are there some API already present?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm not really sure that there's an API for that, but based on the much discussion about bluetooth tethering between two android devices, I suppose the answer is no.
if you get to a beta test fase (even alpha), count me in.
I have:
- Samsung Galaxy TAB 7.0 plus (GT-P6210) with original 3.2 kernel;
- LG Optimus One (P500H) with official 2.3.3 version.
both are rooted, by the way.

[Q] FieldTest.apk on ICS

Hello.
On Gingerbread rom I had system app - FieldTest.apk, on which I can check cellular network parameters. Unfortunately on ICS there is no this app. Is any way to get this app on ICS? Maybe someone can share me this app from Gingerbread rom? I remember my old Nokia with low-system app FieldTest, on which I can even switch gsm channel, too bad this is not availble on android.

Please refer to this thread you may find more useful info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594187

FieldTest.apk is HTC related app, and it's not avaible by code. It need apk in system apps.

Download the file your looking for here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25335369&postcount=103 and use this code dial in your phone *#*#7262626#*#* it will launch the Fieldtest. I tried and works for me.

Thanks, it's working!

MSI WindPad Enjoy 7 firmware update

If you have an MSI windpad 7 or 10 and want to update its firmware, here is the link to the latest : http://event.msi.com/nb/enjoy/enjoy7.html#/?div=Firmware
Fair warning : This 2.3 gingerbread update doesn't improve performance much, it looks better than android 2.2 but people report different bugs that I didn't experience myself.
A bug I am experiencing with it is that its bluetooth and wifi are going crazy, not detecting devices like they used to do on android 2.2. be warned if you use this tablet with your car's bluetooth, it probably will stop connecting to it after the 2.3 update.
IMPORTANT MESSAGE : if anyone just bought this tablet and still has android 2.2 on it, please be cool and catch an image of it to share with us who updated to the buggy firmware. MSI customer support sucks, they don't keep old firmware on their website!
Here's how you can make an "image" of your firmware : http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...nandroid-backup-and-clockworkmod-rom-manager/
You should end up with a .img file that you can reinstall later if you find out the update is buggy for you.
Don't hesitate to post or PM me if you need help.

Hi adilator, just found this post via a google search. I have a windpad 7 that I havent updated yet. Am happy to do an image of it when I get home later.
Was hoping to find a way to get Skype video working on the damn thing but guessing this firmware update doesnt help so wont put myself through it

Hi leemako.
The normal skype you download from android play (market) doesn't work on this tablet, you need to use the one bundled with its original firmware. if you updated skype and it's not working, you can easily revert the update and go back to the original installation by going to the applications management page and click on "unistall updates".
is your tab on android 2.2 or did it come with 2.3 preinstalled?
I'd really appreciate your help if you can share the img with us.

Btw, if you must root the tab, don't do the root img available on a thread in this forum, it will install a new version of the firmware with the bug I'm trying to avoid. You should test the various froyo root tools available such as Z4root or gingerbreak, look here : http://www.itsmyiphoneworld.com/android-device/howtorootandroidversionfroyo222

ah sorry, I just checked and it was bundled with 2.3.1.

Hey it's ok leemako.
For anyone landing on this page after a search, if you're looking for the best custom rom for this tablet, here's where you should look : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668786
It's a great rom based on the latest official rom but with an ICS skin that makes it look a million times better.

Skype for Android 2.1 (Eclair)

Hello,
I have a device that works on Android 2.1 (Eclair). It's a Prestigio MultiPad PMP3084BRU. I also have a Samsung galaxy i9000, also with Android 2.1. I can not find a skype version that will work on that version of Android. Does someone have a working skype version for Eclair?
My skype stops on the sign in process. It will not go further and I can not access skype.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
carrboneum87
