ok im having calibration issues when holding my phone in landscape mode. ive dug around and found the calibration file for the accelerometer and other sensors. it will let me change it but it wont let me save it. also if you view it in root explorer text editor it wont show. but if you view it in es file, root browser, or root explorer text viewer it shows as -2 0 0 0. and coincidentally its off by about 2 degrees. the file path is sys>devices>virtual>sensors>accelerometer_sensor>calibration. it just wont allow me to save the file. any ideas?
also it wont even let me copy the file to neither internal or external sd car. i have root. all explorers have super user access.
From what I am told by a rom Dev it can't be changed. Every phone has the same thing. He said depending on what ur doing the app seems to be what needs calibration to the phone. When he tested sensor with dial code it all showed perfect even tho that file says that. Do a sensor test and watch it is accurate. What ever app you are using in landscape mode is the issue reach out to Dev of app for the fix

Looks like you're right. I'm just thrown off that all of them drift to the left. Didn't have the issue on my s5.... Thanks for your help brother. Hopefully the lollipop update fixes it.

That won't help either it has to be the app developer who fixes it in his way of handeling the app.

I have used Astro for some time on my LG 2x, but today I realised that I cant move stuff between the two "cards".
If I try to move I get the: "Move Failed" dialog and nothing happens.

I use Linda Manager with no problems.
Edit: Just tried to move a file from /sdcard to /sdcard/_ExternalSD. Works
For some reason Astro wont and I wanted to hear if I was the only one tackling with that problem before getting a hold of the guys that make Astro.
So other astro users, come out of the closet and let me hear if you are having the same issues
Same problem with astro.. Will not move files.
A workaround is to do copy, then delete the original, but it is annoying as hell. Too bad though, because astro has quick copy/move function, rar support, and thumbnails. All of which i need when doing rom modification before flashing..
I haven't found a better alternative, well except this lg0x2 move issue, now everything is better
Anyone can suggest a superior alternative? I've heard the lightweight ones can f'''up files if a phonecall comes in whilst files are being moved..
I can live with the Copy/Delete measure if thats we will have to do. I will however send a message to the developer of Astro and tell me there is a issue with the 2x and Astro moving. Hopefully its an easy fix.
NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Netflix has Disabled Device Check and you can now Install straight from Market without any Hacks.
I tested and it works on my Nook Color CM7 7.0.3
For people that still have issues though, I'll leave up the HowTo.
Since people aren't looking through the Netflix App thread for the HowTos that I and other people are posting here is my HowTo.
HowTo guide for those that don't understand what build.prop is.
Android 2.3 ROMs(CM7 Stable, Phiremod, ect...)
ro.product.model=Nexus S
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
CM7 nightlys + Android 2.2 ROMs(Stock, Froyo, ect...)
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
Just make sure you backup your build.prop file before editing just in case you need to switch back.(Copy it somewhere and rename it build.prop.bak)
For Newbs:
-Remount /system as RW using Root Explorer (Open Folder then press button at the Top)
-Backup the /system/build.prop to /system/build.prop.bak (In Root Explorer just Copy it and Paste in the same place)
-Edit the file /system/build.prop with a text editor (Hold down in Root Explorer for Popup then tap "Open in Text Editor" )
-Replace each line with it's above replacements
-Make sure there are no extra spaces at the ends of lines as that can cause problems
-Save the file
-Hard Reboot
TaDa! Netflix Works!

Cool beans. Question, though: Can I download a movie from Netflix so I can watch it offline? Like on a plane? I know from my TV there is an option, basically, to start watching a movie, stop watching, and you then have 24 or 48 hours, or something, to finish watching it. And then I guess it self destructs, or something.
If you can't do this, I wonder why anyone would give a crap about watching a movie on their WiFi-only Color Nook. Most people have a TV or at least a laptop with a bigger screen...
Worked like a charm! Thanks
Desperate to find out if you NetFlix will actually stream the file to your CN and then you can watch it whenever you want, or, perhaps there's a time limit. My guess is not, but it works like that when streaming to my Blue Ray player at home. If it can;t do this, I really don't see much value in having this service. Big deal. I can watch a movie on a small screen with my 46" TV in the next room, or my 15" inch laptop 2 feet away. I want it for plane rides, where I won't have internet access.
Awesome- now to see if netflix works on Galaxy tab and use its info to hopefully get HQ
Not working for me.
Have CM7.0.0 with Android 2.3.3. So I tried the "Nexus S" and "samsung" thing first. Hard rebooted. Installed the APK. Tells me the device is not supported.
So I tried the "HTC Vision" and "HTC" ones next. Rebooted, cleared the data, removed and reinstalled the app. Still getting the same error.
Confirmed the build.prop file changes are saving properly. Not sure what went wrong for me.

So it would seem since you waited a whole 15 mins to post a second time about it.
No. No you can do what you want. This is not how netflix works. Period.
and my wife goes out of town with her nook, yes her nook. i told her, shes ready.
i hope im smart enough for the "newb" version. for real i might not be. anyone want to do pictures? !!!
awesome
Works like a charm. It's awesome.
not working for me for some reason either.
Used ES File Manager to mount /system as RW
made a backup
changed the two lines to match this.
ro.productmodel=HTC Vision
ro.productbrand=HTC
There are no unnecessary spaces in there.
powered off, and then powered back on.
get the "device not supported" message.
Running CM Nightly 72 and Dalingrin's OC running at 1.1 (hope I spelled the name right)
anybody having this problem?
Also it seemed to break YouTube when I had those settings in the build.prop file.
After I restored my backup build.prop file youtube worked fine again.
I got the beta 3.1 CM7 to run it with the Nexus S mod... well it sorta runs. It plays at super fast mode and doesnt slow down and doesnt realize its going fast forward sounds like alvin and the chipmonks

It wouldn't work for me until I changed
ro.productmodel=Vision (no HTC)
And then the ro.productmanufacturer=HTC, not brand. Maybe that could work for you.

Don't see anyone with this problem:
After changing build.prop, hard rebooting, and opening Netflix, I get an error that my device's date and time are bad and need to be fixed...
What the hell?
I have date and time manually set. Didn't matter if I turned on network time. I am on satellite internet, so wondered if it might be a signal latency issue?
Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone can walk this dummy through this using ES File Explorer. I can't for the life of me even get started on this!
Thanks in Advance!
yeah doesn't work i got it to recognize it as a nexus s but when i load a video it just buffers or does nothing.
Does anyone know of a way to lock the screen on gameloft games so that the audio out jack is in the top right corner instead of bottom left? (basically flipped the other way)
I tried just using orientation lock but it didn't affect the Gameloft games... trying to play around the headphone out is a real pain
Basically trying to make your tab a South Paw?
Maybe modify the tabs build.prop's rotation %, but modding the build.prop can be dangerous.
I think it is set at default 90%
In nova2 if you change the orrientation in the game it goes from 90% to 240%
Research it. This is prob the setting your tab will run off now. Most likely affect everything that has that default orrientation only view.
Allways back up original and move back up to secure location.
Your gonna need to be rooted.
Get a root explorer file manager app on the market.
Only mod one thing at a time, in case something goes wrong. I believe all changes need restart to take effect.
I have not attempted to do this particular build.prop mod, so. . .let me know.
Research it. Did I say that allready? Lol, oh and back up!
Hit the thanks button if I have helped at all!

So after having gone through 5 different camera apps that won't use the front facing camera and also switch to video mode, it's getting frustrating install and uninstalling.
The stock camera works but is sloooooow.
What camera apps have y'all installled from the market that you like and works well with the FFC and switching to video mode?
Flash this (my custom one thx to |ErosizeD| ) let me know is this work for you. it work on my thrill pretty fast.
Flashable Zip through CWM
shouldnt have any issues.. but plz backup
What does this mod do?

it will make the camera resolution clear and fast
Thanks! Just flashed it.
So much better. Takes about a second and a half to 2 seconds from first tapping the icon for it to be ready to take pics. Then somewhere between a second and two seconds to take the pic.
That's a huge improvement and takes away my need for another camera app.
Thanks given!
I tried it out, went from a 5 second launch to a 3 second launch. So any improvement is welcome.
"Ask not what your Thrill can do for you, but what awesome things can you do with your Thrill!"
Everything on this I thought was great until I went to look at my gallery. The resolution is way whacked out on viewing photos/icons/etc in my gallery.
How do I undo the mod? Do I just delete the apk?
The more I think about this, the more it irks me. Do they not have a QA person that checks things? I mean, c'mon, 5+ more seconds to start up and then the terrible delay on snapping pics. Well, unless your idea of a good camera is it takes long enough so you can make a pot of coffee and drink a couple cups.

I don't have problem but you can always undo it
copy zip file file to your SDcard unzip it using root explorer copy mediaprofile.xml and TicameraCameraProperties.xml
to your etc folder using root explorer and restart the phone
that will undo it
I can confirm that this mod doesn't work on gingerbread
wait is the resolution problem recurring? Or was it just for that guy.
ok i searched this issue but found nothing useful or helpful to fix this but every picture i take seems to dissappear after a few minutes and all i get is a gray triangle with an ! mark inside it for all pictures taken by the camera. anyone else have this issue?
im on bady boyz rom
rooted s-offed
h/k m8
No body is having issues with pictures not displaying correctly?? Im on ViperONEM8 rom but it did this on the stock rom and badboyz as well. must not be rom related but i dont know so sum one have any ideas what the issue is? thanks
Have you tried changing the storage location? Also, are you restoring your gallery each time you try a new ROM? You could have the folder hidden on accident and as you restore the gallery that folder becomes hidden again. See if you cannot find the photos another way, for example: Quickpic or ES File Browser.

thank you for helping.
unfortunately yes i did try changing the storage location, in the camera app i changed it to ext sdcard & phone storage both same issue. also i used the Xposed module "Downloads2SD" & "Pictures2SD" both to change the location but still same issue. as for restoring my gallery, no i dont restore it at all when installing new rom. unless somehow it automatically restores from my google account but i dont think it does.
I also have used Root Browser & ES File Explorer to look in every directory on phone and sdcard for the pictures and they cant be found anywhere.
thanks again for replying and trying to help appreciate it much. any other ideas tho?

What happens when you use a different camera app? If that doesn't work either I would suggest an RUU. If an RUU doesn't work I would suggest returning the phone.

still not working with other camera apps. im gonna try RUUing once and see if it still does it. i took a few pics today and all seemed fine until i went to view them later on then they were just displaying the gray triangle thing.. one pic was there and viewed fine one sec then the next its just like the others. i just looked in the gallery now and it shows the previews of these pics but i tap to open them and get the triangle again. its weird & really frustrating i took tons of great pics over the time with this phone and lost them all from this, except of course the stupid test shots ive taken of my wall or whatever pointless shots.. they seem to stay fine its just the important ones that wont.. aarrrghhh gonna RUU right now.
here is a screenshot of what displays for the pictures.. View attachment 2782818
come on isnt anybody having issues with pictures similiar at all?!
pictures i take sometimes show with parts of it having a section thats gray.. usually more then 50% of the pic is that way otherwise there is no pic just a black screen with the ! as shown in previous post here. can anyone please help me. ive lost a lot of important good pics due to this.
you all have always helped me with any issues ive had.. thanks for all that. and thanks for your help with this.

I am having the same issue i moved all my pictures to the external storage card to free up space but now the pics are in limbo i cant find them i just have the triangle where they use to be. the same thing holds true for apps
im beginning to suspect that KK write protection with the external sdcard is the culprit for this but im on viperonem8 and have tried the fixes i found that are suppose to fix the write protection issue and still having same issues. so anyone have any working fixes at all please let us know thanks

I am having the exact same issue and it is frustrating as hell. Especially when I get a great picture, then I go to show someone and it is ****ING GONE.. The only way that I can seem to save them if is when I take them, I immediately share them. After doing extensive research, I have narrowed it down to 2 possible issues.
1) The SD card is somehow corrupted, I purchased a 64GB SD card from eBay and I just recently read about an SD card scandal that was going on which could be the culprit. To test this, I am first going to try with a smaller card that I know works. If that doesn't work, I am going to have the pictures stored on the phone and see if that keeps them.
2) This problem really started to show itself after I downloaded an app called OneGallery, I don't really know if that has anything to do with it, or if it is completely coincidence. If replacing the SD card doesn't work, deleting this app will be the next step.
I love the phone too much to just turn it in or swap it out.
