Well it's just basics if you use Dev mode hook up your phone to your computer you can modify almost any file I believe... I've done it before without root but I might try it if they don't put a patched APK out soon for the game I paid to play

Download astro file manager. After install open application and click file manager. Then hit ur phones menu button and choose preference. Scroll to bottom till u see enable browser download and check it. U can then exit application. Should work now. That's how I fixed issue on my photon.

You aren't using a computer at all to snag ROM's and such?
Hello everyone, first post since joining. I have a 16GB SD CARD which was partitioned for use in my previous phone (HUAWEI ASCEND running CM7.2 which had DT'S A2SD incorporated into the ROM, partition size of 1GB & 32 swap).
My question is this :
As I am still stock & un-rooted,is their any added benefit to leaving the partitioning in place or should I delete the partition. THX!
BTW, I've had the phone for only a week & still getting acclimated w/it, will probably root sometime later, very pleased w/the overall performance @ this point.

I don't see a reason to keeping it as CM7 for a different device won't work on the Photon. But that's just me. So it's basically a partition of information that is not usable.
I was not near a comp at the moment but wanted to download something for later use. I usually use my laptop. But that method worked so thanks for the help. Medic

I've read the fpse forums and it seems tough to understand how to get BIOS loading to work.
For the record, I'm using an unlicensed copy with sound disabled to see if I like the app enough to pay for it.
Any time I try to load a BIOS then restart any particular ISO, it FC's the app. Then trying it again instantly FC's. I have to uninstall the app and reinstall for it to go back to HLE mode.
Is there really a performance difference b/w HLE and BIOS mode? Most games I've tried run just fine in HLE, but I'd like to be able to save/load state, which requires BIOS mode. I'm just not having luck getting that to work correctly.
Fpse should ask for bios as soon as you load it the first time. I didn't even know you could run roms without it.
Download this file and put it in your psx folder or wherever you have your roms. Load it up and everything should run fine.

Okay, I'll try that BIOS file. I have one that I've used for years with emulators on the PC and just assumed that would work. I'll report back. Thanks.
Edit: Looks like the BIOS file I was using wasn't good or something. The one you linked has all of the games I tried working, along with working save/load! Time to buy the app now.
BTW, Does the OpenGL plugin work well for you? When I select it, it slows the games down way too much.
Just playing devils advocate here but if you had initially purchased the app wouldn't that give you tech support to resolve your issue?
Well it's kind of a chicken and egg deal. I started researching the app and found it had mixed issues, so I wanted to try before buying.

I don't think OpenGL works with the Samsung pbones. I've always had problems with it.

Their tech support is very slow actually, not that I'm telling anyone to pirate apps or anything.

That's the sense I got reading their forums. Yet another reason I figured I'd try for myself and ask questions here on a forum specific for the Note.

That is a whole nother ballgame, ubuntu touch is a pain. Lol
I've given up on working on it for now, as i really need my phone to be working 110% all the time, so im back to stock....with a handful of modifications ofc.
Using th3bills cm10.1 i was trying to just port it over without having to.build like they say in the porting guide, and no luck outside of a loop. User error really. Its best left to the trusted devs, etc round here.
Our phones can handle it great, and then some, BUT, as with anything over the stock gb, without drivers things dont work as they should. Ubuntu touch is really frikkin awesome to look st, but even if someone ports it, it is only a preview an 90% of the features wont work or are just placeholders. Id let it sit a while, not worth a damn atm. But it does give you a taste of the ui. Which, is tough getting used to as it is very gesture oriented as apposed to click here scroll here that we do on android.

Thanks for share sir .. i though anyone haven't try it yet .. i follow the ubuntu touch forum every day hope that some of our great dev will port it. But i still wait it until happen.. i hope
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
If I can find some free time in my super-busy college schedule, I'd like to try my hand at porting it for us. Not just because it would be awesome to have it, but because I'd like to eventually do some app development for it (and it looks like a badass OS for a phone).
Can I put Ubuntu on my Photon even with 2.3.5?
I think you have to unlock the bootloader first.

Unfortunately not. Ubuntu requires it to be unlocked. (ubuntu ATM is highly reliant on cm10 still, so if you can't run cm10,which 2.3.5 can't)
Your stuck between a rock and a hard place

What is the point? We need a decent kernel that can actually support our phone. Atrix 4G succeeded, and all development has halted here. This phone seems pretty much done. Very disappointing.

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

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
