I am looking at either attempting the making of a root app or just flat out extending the vibrate when a call or txt comes in. Question is where would that file be? And yes I am going to dive right in! I have yet to grasp the file layout and have relied on other apps to do stuff for me. I figure the worst I can do is brick my tb....j/k. I will never say you can fully brick an android phone. I just wanna go further now because of the lack of customization to the vibration setting. Thanks!

I guess there is no set place for the vibration length in a file? I really don't want a different rom. Just want to get a place to start. Yes I know absolutely nothing about the android file structure, but hey if I brick it then I but a new one til I figure it out. I just can't seem to find one answer to this. Anyone? And yes I did use the search. XDA premium app just sends back everything but what I ask.

First post here, so please take it a little easy on me. I have had my Vibrant for some time, I had not rooted as I didn't fully understand how magic it could be. After some research, I decided I would go ahead and do it tonight, using one click root. Everything is mostly ok and I think that I did successfully root, however, I am having problems with Super User. First off, just about anything I do force closes it, but secondly - and more importantly - I have downloaded a few apps that need root access, like 'shoot me' or 'titanium backup' - both will open, but they dont work, superuser is not popping up like I was under the impression that it would.
I have been googling for some time now and cannot find an answer to this, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Try to open titanium backup and hit the problems button to download busybox. See if that does you any good.
Thanks, that did it. The only issue I am having now is that I have no haptic feedback and the phone is moving waaaaay slower then ever
Hmmm... I would say to odin back to stock and go with a custom rom. It sounds like your phone got aids somewhere along the way.

Damn! HAHA! I might have to use that in my sig ! (I need one)
Lol... feel free. I use that term quite often actually.

I haven't seen this question asked yet, and I feel like it's the elephant in the room here. what are the different "boot modes" you can select when booting into the bootloader menu, and what do they do? surely someone has some documentation. Some of them, from their title, seem very interesting, and makes me consider the development potential of this phone, and possible moving over to it from my epic.
Any insight would be great!
Bumpity bump
Surely someone has some knowledge about this or has played around with them. Cmon, xda'ers...

I would like to know this also. Specificlly if I can do a factory reset from there incase I put the Phone into another Bootloop. I put it in a Bootloop this afternoon, luckly pulling the battery fixed it, but wondering if what my saftey net is.
I would Imagine that fast boot might work if I had the right file on my SD
Ok, so I want my phone to stop warning me that my information could be gathered by a third party.
I would like to do this so I can enable my GPS via a text message for the app "Wheres My Droid".
I am currently stock/rooted.
Thanks for any and all help!
Try another ROM. I'm using CM7 and it doesn't ask me ever, then again, I haven't had any of the annoying aspects that most have had.
You can even try another almost stock ROM. I've noticed different kernels react to permissions differently also.

Yeah. I am going to do that... I am just trying to decide which one I want first.

**Edit**
Well now I feel stupid. I just rebooted my phone after doing a nandroid backup... and it asked the same thing but instead of "Ok" and "Cancel" it said "Ok" and "Never Warn Again"...
What controls in call volume? Is it kernel or the radios? I've seen patches to fix the volume in sense 4 roms, but what do they actually do? Just curious and trying to learn as much as possible. If there's a file or set of files that can be modified, what are they and how can I edit them? Thanks

Could someone help me out with this? It seems like every other Rom I flash has no in call volume, mostly sense 4 and aosp roms. Someone has got to know what files to tinker with to correct this issue. I know its not hardware, I'm on the stock ruu leak now and its fine, and I wipe thoroughly between every Rom. I'm willing to donate $10 big bucks on my payday to anyone who can successfully help me. And I know that's not a lot, but its a 6pk of brew and a pack of smokes or coffee for a couple days or hours depending on the person. I'm desperate right now. Thanls

There is app called Call Recorder which turns on speaker phone, makes it significantly louder than usual. It records all phone calls. This may not be legal in your state unless you answer each call by informing the other party that the call is being recorded.

Thanks, but no thanks, I'm looking for a more permanent fix or a systematic fix, its something in the coding between roms that's making the in call volume suck.

Back in the CM7 days on the Eris, we used to flash a patch to really crank up all the volume. I still had the patch sitting in my dropbox and I'll upload it here if you'd like to take a look.

Thanks man, I was hopeful, but it wouldn't flash, and when I manually moved it to the etc folder it broke the radios.

I tried porting the files, but it didn't work. I really dont know what other things need to be modified. I downloaded the mod and saw that it changed the android.policy.jar which I modified. Maybe some other smali needs to be changed.
I would be a happy man if we had some Multi window action haha

Have you tried to talk with the author of that mod?
Maybe he can shed some lights on it.

I have the multi window feature on an international note I'm using temporarily (my wife wants to try a smartphone) to replace my i717. I haven't even used it yet and can't think of a situation where I could have been better off for using it. I guess people want what they can't have.
IMO in would enjoy texting and videos or email and browser. I would find a use a lot

I have played around with it on s3s and I thought it was a pretty useful feature.
Sent from my SGH-I717D using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the insights. I guess my eyes aren't up to that. I got the note so I could enjoy the large screen. I imagine its just a matter of time before its available.
I used it on a s3 and i dont think i would use it asuch as i thought but i dunno... I just use the recent apps to jump around
Yeah, I think its not a practical thing on a note, but on a 7inch or larger tablet it ciuld be useful for the ways the previous posters described.
Must have
This is a must have feature for people like me because i am always trying to do three things at once with my phone but if i can do two at a time thats a time saver. Blackstar ROMs almost have this perfected. They have the multi window app tray when you hold the back button and you can pull apps out to use for multi window but they do come out half size so they just overlap. I tried downloading Multi window manager and it tried to patch an XML file i think but it still didnt work after. If anyone has some advice on how to get it to work you should check it out
