[Q] change device name? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I was wondering if anyone new how to change the device, I noticed that when I look at the connected devices in my router my tablet is called androidblahblahinsertrandomnumbershere can I change this to something else?

Easiest way I have found on Samsung devices in general is by using trickster mod.

Great will look into it, so there's no simple way through settings? I noticed that all other device on my network show as unknown just not the note 10.1.

May get a GS3 cause I'm crazy. Couple questions though

I may get a GS3 but only if I can do a couple things ...maybe one thing. Can we remove the annoying, persistent WiFi notification in a stock ROM that's rooted and clockworked? Thank you!

There is also a dialer code you can type in that will give you the option to turn it off.
Why would you need to be crazy to get a GS3?
Edit: IIRC it still shows up in the same spot after the code, but it shuts up about saying you should use Wifi and such
(been a while since stock, my bad)

I've read of some XML edits that can remove it but it'd need to be stock. I run stock, rooted so it'd need to be removable from the stock ROM. I wouldn't wanna see it in my notification bar or the pull down. And crazy cause I've had about a dozen phones in a year. I have a problem.

Yes, I'm also stock and rooted and i removed it, as well as that stupid popup about known networks in range.

The last update took it off for me. Haven't rooted yet and was prompted for the update I took it and after the reboot the WiFi notification was gone.

Not working on. N8010. It says high power device connected then cannot access device. Do I need to install some drivers?

I think it need external powered hub samsung kernel has fail safe kernel that disconnects devices with high power , I think disapling this in kernel will prevent using external powered hub

[Q] Change the ploink noise?

Is it at all possible to change the screen ploink noise? I know I can turn it off but is there a way to change it? Not rooted (yet...). Thanks.
I don't believe so. It's within the system somewhere you'll have to ask someone else though, I'm new to Samsung devices

Yep. It is S_HW_Touch.ogg in the media files. Guess I will need root to change it unless anybody knows better.
I believe you need root since you will need permissions for system/media/audio/ui
I think a fart sound would be an amusing replacement.,

You can download XSG1.apk and try side loading it. https://www.box.com/s/hfysx1jg5faoaugoec1s
Same with zite http://androidsight.com/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php?id=1032
Not sure if it works or not but sometimes you can get lucky.
Thank you so much

This is why I root my device... I can grab these apk files from my data file to try out later. Had a few apps go missing from the app store and this was the only way to get it...
Most apps are compatible but you will find the occasional one that isn't....

Hi.
I did, Intel VT is enabled, but I still get the kernel panic error... any guesses ?
Hi,
Unfortunately I don't know why it's working perfectly for some people and not working for other one.
I imagine could be a VirtualBox issue.
You can try either doing similar procedure using WMware or ask for support here:

Up!
Orientation...portrait?
I have successfully installed 4.3 on VirtualBox again using Ubuntu host. Is there a way to change the orientation to portrait permanantly so that the VM looks and operates like a phone? Short of finding a way to set my expensive monitor on it's side I can't really find a way.
