really i didn't know that, i don't really like MIUI ROM but if other devs could somehow implement this into their ROM that would be great,i run Cognition ROM (for Galaxy S2)
try adding this to your build.prop
net.bt.timeout=never
or
net.bt.timeout=
leave after the = sign blank to the second one to leave it nulled e.g never time out
hopefully they work

Hi,
Sorry for "hacking" this thread, I was wondering whether it is possible to hack a Bluetooth so as to be able to connect two external Bluetooth speakers of different brands (JBL & Ultimate Ears).
Thank you.

Screenshots in ICS

Just a heads up, to take a screenshot, click and hold both volume down and Power for about 1 second. Should see the touchscreen flash.

Thanks - good tip - maybe we need a tips thread rather than a bunch of one-offs, though.
Not going to lie, I had to Google this.
Edit - GB method for screenshots work as well.

I usually just share out with whatever app. Click the upper right corner and this little triangular thing will show up. Click that to share. I think you can long press to copy, but I'm not sure.

thanks nigga, i had to get to the extended menu to do that on AOKP, this is easier.
For those of you on Gingerbread Power+Home does it on that one.
does not work on my SGS II i9100G
just got the update for 4.0.3
Thanks for the tip

Chances are good you are missing your keystr file. The fix has been discussed dozens of times. Please search for this. I should note you will need to be rooted to fix this. If you don't want to root, you will have to go back to gingerbread.

Are you talking about this, or this? (they actually appear to be the same thing)
It's mentioned in both threads that the "DSP Manager" app doesn't work with the stock music app. Are you trying to use it with the stock music app?
I dont know which one..both seem the same..and no.. Using poweramp

Then I surely don't know. Try posting your question in one of those two threads I linked. One of the threads DOES have a post that says you need to start DSP Manager before you start Poweramp. But I don't have either, so I'm not really qualified to answer questions on either.
Ok

Try calibrating your sensors, they may have been corrupted during upgrade so phone doesn't know it's being rotated. All the best.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
if you're still on stock rom and stock kernel so your currunt kernel can still do these two :
1)wipe cache(try this one only first time, if it presists ,then do both next time)
2)wipe data/factory reset ( take a back up of your contacts and messeges )
to get into kernel recovery mode = ( hold this combination while ur phone is turned off :volume up + home + power ,hold these till u see the S2 splash screen, as soon as u see it , release the button combination immediately )
in recovery mode u can move up and down using volume keys and select either with home or power button

[Q] S3 Power Button

Hey guys,
a week ago i've noticed that my power button is a bit too sensitive, now i'm just touching it like the homescreen and the display turns off. Sometimes it stays pushed and reboot for several times, can somebody help me? Please don't give the answer: "Send it to Samsung" or something else, i haven't got guarantee anymore, so i want to fix it myself.:good:
Then you need to dismantle the phone see the SGS3 tear-down via Google .

To dismantle the phone and fix the power button? Obviously it is some kind of hardware challenge and not software, hence open up the phone is needed I guess.
