mdnie directory in Galaxy SII ICS 4.0 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, does anyone know where is the mdnie files located in the new ICS 4.0? I'm using the stock ICS 4.0 rom for Galaxy SII and cant seem to find it anywhere.
The old GB 2.3 mdnie was located under system/etc but the ICS one seems to have move it somewhere else. Would appreciate if anyone could enlighten me

I would also like to know that!

spent hours searching the directory one by one but still cant find it The only thing i came over was outdoor or negative etc stuff like that......

Has anybody found it yet?
Or at least the control devices?

I've been looking at the ICS source code, and I think I see what happened. They moved the files into the driver itself. However, they also added a facility for loading a custom file. From the source code, somewhere (maybe /dev/class/mdnie? I am not sure--I don't actually have an ICS device myself) there should be a control file named "tunning" (yes, "nn"!). I *think* it works as follows:
If you write a filename to it (i.e., "echo filename > tunning"), it should load the tuning data from /sdcard/mdnie/filename
If you write 1 to it, it should activates the tuning data
If you write 0 to it, it should deactivates the tuning data
A quick test might be to load tuning data that turns the colors red. Hypothetically, the "red.txt" file I attached might work. Use at your own risk if you want to try it. Don't blame me if it gets stuck, destroys your screen, whatever. Since I don't have ICS, I haven't done this myself. Plus I don't know where exactly the "tunning" file is. But it looks pretty straightforward.
The reason I am interested in this is that I am making a night vision app for mdnie-supporting phones. So far it works on my phone under GB, and I don't have ICS.

[Q] iDoser; is there an android version?

It's an app that uses audio frequencies that are supposed to have an effect on the neural brain waves in order to achieve certain states. To reduce headaches, to achieve deeper meditation, to induce deep sleep and mainly in recent time to achieve the state as the drugs do. To get high as after a splif or feel the rush of an X and even to feel drunk and so on and on.
So is there an android version of it? I've been searching forums and sites, googled it forever and found nothing.
Thanx in advance.
You know it's a scam, right?

I thought so yeah.
However , even the uselessest (let's presume that's a legit word) app could at one moment have been found on my device even only to be ran once and then uninstalled for good. If you know what I mean
yeah those things are rubbish. you could always play the idoser mp3s on your android phone though
Rubbish to an extent, those noises do screw with my head. Not pleasantly and nothing like the description claims.
I do remember seeing some apps for brainwave entrainment and such. The idoser site says to use the mp3 files on android and such
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
I have been able to find the latest version of this program, and it has some of the doses available. Now, I'm trying to figure out how to unlock all the other doses.
the obb file has all the mp3 files, and the apk file, if chabged into zip, will have lots of information, maybe the information necessary to change to have all doses unlocked is in there, but I can't find which file and what to change.
I would be pleased if someone found out how to unlock the doses and share it.
;D

[Q] How to write "capacity" without stopping Update?

Hey Folks.
I'm just a beginner for Android, but have some expirience with several PC-Programming languages. Hopefully this is the right place for this Question?
The first thing I'd like to do sounds simple, but there is a point where I'm not able to find a solution.
The Quest:
I'd like to have 1%steps in akku-display. on my DEFY
What I' found until now:
There are 2 Files containing the Information!
/sys/devices/platform/cpcap_battery/power_supply/battery/capacity
there is a symlink to that file
/sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity
and the file can be found on two furthermore places:
/d/battery
/sys/kernel/debug/battery
at the same locations there is a second file : charge_counter
This is also with the named other directorys.
The file "charge_counter" contains the 1%step-value for the akku-level!
The file "capacity" contains the 10%step-value which is displayed by all the Widgeds and tools
The files in /sys/devices and /sys/class can't be changed. Even with 777 they resist any write-atempt
The files in /d/battery and /sys/kernel/debug/battery CAN changed they are 666 by default.
So the idea was just to copy the content from "charge_counter" to "capacity" if "charge_counter" change its value.
at first it seems to work! Every Value I wrote to "capacity" is present with the whole System! It changes the value in every presence of "capacity" I found. Also It changes the Batt-Widgets content, the status-bar-symbol and so on.
BUT
The Problem:
Once changed the value in "capacity" the phone doesn'd update "charge_counter" any more. Also "voltage" an some other Values in that directory will stop showing the real state!
So once I copied the value it will shown fine and than never change again until reboot.
Question: HOW can I avoid stopping the Update?
Sorry for typo ... english is not the language I usaly speak
any ideas?
This should be in the development thread. Not many have their eye on this section.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
Sounds good... post in development. If we have 1% step values, must be a way to be show.
I think I can't ... hav not enough Posts here until now! Maybe someone else may post it?
"bitboy0, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:"
Leave it in this forum for now. It's related to Apps from what I understand.
Also, you won't be able to post in the Dev sections until you have 10 posts
Yes, I knew that 10-posts-thing as I red the stickys
Until now I tried to solve the "problem" without Java ... just using "Tasker" and the locale-execute-plugin ...
But I think It would be more effektive to handle that using Java? ...
It makes me sad to know: here the pro's doesn't read ...
Where the pro's are I can't write.
Excellent question!

Here you go a new thread has been create to see if someone will take on hacking the Defy to get 1% increment
See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11295128
Do you think that can help ?
http://grepcode.com/file/repository...2_r1.1/com/android/server/BatteryService.java
I don't think this all is needed. I am almost sure, that it's just about editing battery stats (and maybe some others) xml's and png's in framework-res.apk. Nothing more.
edit: And maybe something in services.jar. I had it changed on X10 mini.
Battery Monitor Widget now supports Motorola Defy
Hello,
Just to let you know support for the Defy has been added in BMW (which can be download from Market).
You can follow the app thread here.
Can someone test it and let me know if it works ok, not having a Defy makes it hard for testing
By the way Defy supports need to be activated in settings / monitoring settings!
Works perfectly. Wondering if it depletes more battery.

Good question! As I don't have a Defy can't say... Last week I checked consumption and found it as low as 0.05% CPU consumption on both a HD2 and Samsung Galaxy S!
Yesterday test results are attached, logging and refreshing every minute, screen on with mA in notification bar and didn't start the UI, just monitoring.
Will add more test result (screen-off, etc) in the app thread
Nevertheless on the Defy, the app will get % from a file (instead of event-based) and will also compute mA estimates, so it will definitely consume a little more...
Maybe you could run some tests comparison with or without activating the support?
EDIT:
Removed any comparison with other app

[REQ] Live Wallpaper Help! Old Galaxy S Stuff

I have been searching around trying to find a way to get some of the older Android 2.1 Galaxy S LWP's to work on the Atrix. Particularly the Ocean Waves with the ripple effect.
For some reason these LWP's don't actually manage to load or for that matter get past the "Loading Live Wallpaper" screen.
From a bit of searching around it looks like a few things are wrong or just not optimized for our phone. Either the resolutions are all wrong or the Atrix is missing some library files to make things happen, maybe the "libmnglw-0.8.2.so" and the "liblwfa-0.A.2-mng-p1.so". I'm pretty sure the need to be pushed to the system/lib folder.
I have attached all I have from some searching the web trying to get answers, and was wondering if someone might have the time to look through them and find out why they may not be working on the phone? The library files are in the "Live Wallpapers.zip". I have attached a little test try that i attempted to put together hoping to figure this out "TestOceanWaves.apk". A crude effort at changing the image resolution and some resolutions in the files themselves. The rest is just apk's to pull data from.
I did manage to get the lib files into the correct directors and changed the permissions to match the files in that directory but so far a no go. Hopefully someone might be able to find the time to use software I most likely don't have to play with these and get something working. Fingers crossed. From a little bit of research these might actually be sought after on the Atrix
Thanks for any and all help.
hi, i have the same request, i loved the ocean weaves lwp in my DEFY, when i changed from eclair to froyo stoped working not sure why and in my atrix is the same thing i hope we can get a ported app or something for the atrix
Just have to keep fingers crossed that the right person comes across this. Maybe a few virtual beers would help.lol We'll have to see.

[Q] android kitchen

hello guys just set up dxsidia android kitchen not sure if anyone uses this but i have a few questions and since dxsidia does not support this anymore was hoping someone could answer them for me...
1. is the major obvious one does it work on the photon in the thread it does say unconfirmed for atrix but nothing on photon?
2.after creating the work folder i go into advanced options and start editing? i realize since there is nothing on the photon most of my answers are probably going to be try and see but no harm in asking right...
3.it has a set of pluign scripts labeled sgs2/ sgs these are for samsung galaxy s right so i dont want to use any of them?
4. there is a task killer tweak you can add from it what exactly is this?
5. add data/app functionality??? lets you add or remove apps??? not sure is why im asking
there are more q's but i figured if i can get these answered im doing good
ive read the thread for a few days now and seems simple but confusing at same time seems like its a one click type thing but if you dont know for sure what you are clicking can really screw up and have to start from scratch... anywho trying to do more around here and would appreciate any help anyone has thanks a ton
1) Yes in terms of an apk is an apk. No in terms of the updater script (IIRC)
2) Yes, assuming theres options in the advanced menu you'd like to impliment
3) You don't need the Samsung plugins.
4) Changes minfree settings in the boot image. Be aware the ICS impliments memory handling differently than previous versions.
5) Adds a script and folder for data/app partition so you can include optional apps. Optional apks (things like nascar for example) could be placed in here and would be installed on flash. But because they are in /data, the user has the option to uninstall through manage apps.
Personal Opinion: While the kitchen may be a convienient way to do things, it leaves little (Read: No) room for learning. Assuming you'd like to create a body of work to be publically distributed and not just for personal use, it might be worth the upfront investment in figuring out how to do/script this stuff yourself. That's not me trying to be an elite a-hole, that's me giving solid advice.
Cheers!
Yeah im a trying to learn as much as i can ive been reading and reading and reading have always known about the kitchen just never tried it thanks for the response you didnt come off as elitest is all good i find its easier for me to learn by trying things while reading about it granted i do research in great lengths not just in xda but other forums, blogs, links so on and so on before even downloading these tools but as i said it seems to sink in better when i can go ok i use this option this what it means thats what it did this what its supposed to do/look like
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
So ive been trying all day to spit out a rom with the kitchen and no matter what i do it doesnt install either get status 7 or 0 says was looking for 4agrs but only found 3 and sometimes says 3args but only found 2 ive tried using a rom i know flashes and just running it through the kitchen and flashing the output... idk what im doing wrong but starting to think it is not photon compatible any insider tips? i know i already asked this but not quite ready to surrender to defeat on this yet and i REALLY dont want to install linux or ubuntu on my computer would have to partition it and just not to keen on doing that to the family computer my kids and wife play on it almost more than i do

[Discussion][4.0, 5.0 US+INTL]Enabling handsfree calling

First of all - sorry for posting it here, i don't mean to be in your face, it's just all discussions about this topic in other threads or posts went nowhere and i also think it didn't get enough attention from the developers. So, i just wanted to start a new thread dedicated to just this feature, since i believe this is one of the most useful features which is somehow got missed in these devices.
I'm talking about the ability to use GP5 to make calls though and answer calls from other devices through bluetooth. I think it's nuts that Samsung didn't implement this feature in these players, since most if not all top range mp3 and media players from this manufacturer in the last 5-6 years have had this feature (my pretty basic 4 year old samsung mp3 player can do this easily). Some people wonder why i care about this, but in my opinion it is a killer feature, which really opens up so many different possibilities to these devices. Tablets with 3g and 4g are reasonably cheap these days, so more and more people buy them. When you have one of them, you naturally think about a possibility of making calls through it. I'm one of such people, i have a 10" 3g tablet and i would like to be able to call through it using my GP5.
I participate in 5-6 different forums dedicated to these devices (mostly european sites) and i see requests and questions from people about this feature almost on daily basis. I think there are hundreds of people out there who would love to have it in their GPs. What i know is that the new GP 3.6 and 4.2 have it and the older ones 4.0 and 5.0 don't. So, i'm begging you, somebody, please make a ROM with this feature! I have no experience in programming for Android, but i think it should be very easy to take code or a library or whatever it is from one device and put it into another, since all these players have pretty much the same hardware (to my knowledge).
Thank you for your attention.
I you can link to a 3.6 or 4.2 rom that I can pull from (can be stock, custom or whatever), I can possibly integrate it into my next release, although I give no promises. Also, as this is development, and this is slightly off topic, I recommend that you change your post tags to [Discussion][4.0, 5.0 US+INTL]Enabling handsfree calling, so that people understand that this is a discussion, not some random person begging for a feature.
Thanks for your reply, i'll have a look for such rom.
Ok, i've changed the tags of this thread. Thanks.
Thanks! I also meant the tags in the thread name, not the actual thread tags. I never use them, so I forgot .
Right, that's what i thought at first, but i see no way to change the name of the thread, unfortunately.

great, thanks for the tip, done.
Thanks for the link! I will try and play around with some of the stuff included and see if I can come up with something. It may be just as simple as installing an apk...
Or maybe swapping bt libs would be all it takes.

oh, sweet, i'm all itching in anticipation! thanks mate!
this means the phone features also needs to be activated because it goes hand in hand im not a dev but im sure its more than installing an apk. i think this will also require some framework changes. also activating the sip calling feature will be very exciting as our SGP can sync contacts as well this can be done in galaxy note by just adb pushing some files to system dir and activating the hands free profile in htc flyer is as simple as editing the build.prop so im sure this is doable but we need to call in the attention of devs :good:
Bad news guys, the uncompiled image didn't help, and I was unable to open the .img that I pulled from a 3.6 rom. Could someone pull their entire /system directory (apply this terminal command: dd if=/dev/block/systemname of=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs), and then pull it off their sdcard (internal) and upload it here (tar or zip it if you need to). I do not believe root is required for that, and I am able to access .rfs files to edit them. You can find the name of your system partition by punching in "mount" in the terminal and then finding /system in the output, and recording the partition name that follows (eg. my system partition on my 4.0 is /dev/block/stl9).
I was tinkering with my sgp amd found this if this might be of any help

Ok, I've just sent an email to Mars11_, who's recently offered his help with extracting files from his SGP 3.6 in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28558588#post28558588
I asked him to come here and follow your instructions. He's our only hope right now.
Got responce from Mars11_ that's what he said: "Okay, so I've run the commands Hanthesolo had, but I didn't have read access to /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 . So I need root, and second, I can't post in the Android Dev yet, as I don't have 10 or more posts. "
Well, hat pretty much means that I can't pull anything together untilthe 3.6 gets root (I guess I could create a guide for that, but I don't have a 3.6, and I cannot exract anything from it's .img images). Sorry about that, but as soon as a /systm dump is uploaded, I will get on it. A last ditch attempt may be to use adb, but I think that you must have root to get su access from it as well. Perhaps you can boot into stock recovery and adb push the superuser binary and apk, that is, if the stock recovery supports adb, as I believe /system is mounted as rw in recovery. Perhaps a signed update.zip that only has superuser? I dunno, just some theories for 3.6 devs.
Mate, you have absolutely nothing to appologise for, you've done everything you could. I'm grateful for you desire to work on this. I guess we'll just have to be patient and wait for the 3.6 to be rooted Thank you.
Well, thanks for giving me a project to work on, because my sumer has just about fizzled out! I look forward to working on this while I wait for my Nexus 7 to arrive, and with it some more time-consuming hobbies .
