My guess is that they are setting Wi-Fi to scan less often for available networks. Devs have been making that tweak fire a long time.

Yes

Are you sure? I googled this and so far the conclusion seems to point that it disable Wi-Fi connection and only wake up periodically. This breaks apps that requires constant data connection, like Google voice.

Old lyra media player hard drive identification

I've got this old lyra media player that has quite a lot of music on it that Id like to save.
The battery is goosed so I've taken the hard drive out but have no idea what type it is.
My plan was to get a sata to whatever it is adapter.
I have attached photos of the drive. I am holding an ide cable next to it and as you can see it is too big.
Hope someone can help.

Ohh man I miss my lyra. Yours is newer than mine was. 250 bucks with a whopping 48mb compact flash card and a monocrom screen. But this was in 1998 mind you. I was one of two people in my town who had one. And its not a small town. But not metropolis either.
You brought back some memorys sir

Spare Parts kind of does this

I just drop by with the same question.As usual ,a 10 years old laptop able to read a battery wear status.
In other words, after years of improvement on android , there's no battery wear status like it ?

And again , a hard question for dev too ?

chances are that youll long change phones before the battery starts showing wear.

Still no app of this kind?

Battery Monitor Widget shows a lot of these stats, in its Calibration tab: measured capacity, ageing, voltage.

[Q] USB OTG adapter isn't recognised

Hi,
I recently bought this USB OTG adapter (Delock 65296):

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Sadly, the device doesn't recognise anything I try to plug it in with. I installed Stickmount, didn't help. The same happens on my phone.
Any suggestions?

Pins 4 and 5 need to be shorted for Otg to work. That one is not compatible with our device.

If both your tablet and phone cannot recognize anything when plugged in, than it's most likely something to do with your cable.
Also, I know you say it's an OTG adapater, but the photo looks like it could just be an adapter. There is a difference between an OTG cable and a micro USB to USB adapter. I tried searching for the Delock 65296 but I could not get anything in English. From the looks of it, though, that might just be an adapater.

Franco on the N7, nAa on the Xperia. I probably bought only a reduction, gonna try buy something with USB OTG written in the specs.
Thank you for clearing up.

You can follow my link if you want to mod one or go to that thread which I have links to cheap one from eBay or amazon.

Also have CWM 6.0.4.7 non touch for anyone interested
CWM Non-Touch
Considering it Non-Touch as the touch screen controls are inverted so until i fixed this it will be considered Non-Touch.
Just FYI i have flashed this on my device but I am not responsible for any bricks or issues that arise by flashing this.
