[APP][22.09.2011][v1.1] NoMoarPowah! - Charging screen replacement - ROOT

NoMoarPowah! replaces that boring charging animation when your phone is turned off but connected to the charger with a fully functional program!
In the history of silly stuff I have made, this is perhaps the silliest
This app is only for a select number of Samsung devices. It does not work on any other devices. See the list below
This app requires a fully rooted device
NoMoarPowah! can automatically reboot into Android when charging is done. Either when fully charged, or when the battery level reaches 15% and Android has enough juice to run.
But wait, there's more! NoMoarPowah! can also reboot at a custom time. It will even suggest times based on your currently set alarms, so your phone will be rebooted just before the alarm goes off and you need to wake up! This way you can be sure nobody will bother you while take your well-deserved nap, but still wake up when you need to.
Tested on the following devices:
- Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) and family
- Samsung Galaxy S2 (I9100) and family
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" (P1000) and family
- Samsung Droid Charge
- Samsung/T-Mobile Sidekick 4G
- Samsung Continuum (ticker overlaps)
It half works on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (all models): the functionality is there, but the touch screen does not work in charging mode.
Other devices from the Samsung Galaxy series with a resolution of 800x480 or more may work as well.
Some custom ROMs may disable NoMoarPowah! functionality

I've been looking for something like this, I'll download and report back in a day or two. Thanks chainfire, your a star.

Quite weird but interesting none the less
Thanks CF

If I were to try it on my GB-flavored Charge, would there be any risk from it not being compatible? Or will it simply fail?

I got 4 word to you:
YOU ARE THE BEST
Waiting for this for a long time...

You're silly

Might well be compatible. If it doesn't find the files it expects, it'll just tell you that and bugger off. It's not dangerous to try out.

I'm gonna buy a DEFY

Hey DEFY users...I decided to buy a defy few days back! But I thought it'd be nice to consult with you guyz before I buy it!
Firstly my budget is around $300-$330. I compared this with Galaxy Ace, Nexus One. But I thought it's the best because the set is pretty solid with dust & water proof.
However, I've used Galaxy Ace for a month. The rooting procedure, custom recovery & flashing ROMs were pretty easy there! But when I look through those process in Motorola Defy it seems pretty hard 2 me
Anyways...I love CyanogenMOD. I hate Motoblur UI. I saw a page for DEFY in http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/motorola-defy . But I found no ROM download links there! Wiki pages doesn't have informations also

Defy RC on CyanogenMOD.COM Screens
So 1 question..Should I buy it?

its definitely better than Galaxy Ace and Nexus One. Rooting procedure is fairly simple, just a matter of installing an apk (if you use z4root or gingerbread). Installing custom roms is also not a problem, just read the guides carefully. If you did it correct once, than its easy the next time... and its really really hard to brick the defy because of locked bootloader. Enjoy!!
EDIT: I want to change my statement and say, its definitely better than Galaxy Ace and a good competitor with Nexus One but for the cheaper price, and its ability to be overclock, Defy had more value for money

Thanks Man! I was also thinking that! After reading the guidelines maybe it won't be too hard! Besides, CyanogenMOD is only in RC phase now. I hope it'll be stable soon with 720p Recording

My wife and I both have a Defy running MIUI 1.9.2 and love them. Rooting and flashing is actually really easy. There are several guides on flashing CM7 and other ROMS. It's a great phone in my opinion, it's durability can't be beat.

Thanks @Angelus47

the title should be, i BOUGHT a DEFY!!

^^ oh yes defy is anyday better than other phones in same range end of story

Hi Defy guys
I'm gonna buy a Defy too
Also been looking at a couple of options:
HTC Desire - £239.99
Moto Defy - £219.99
Orange Monte Carlo - £119.99/£159.99
Have around £250 max to spend and would rather a new handset with a receipt. Previously owned a HD2 but it was repaired twice and eventually couldn't be repaired anymore.
Looking for something tough-ish, decent performance, preferably not HTC - I feel burned by them!
Anything else I should be getting, really torn towards the defy so much that it's reserved for pick up! ha ha

Defy is standalone one of a kind performer in its "class" , no doubt. Not to mention the fact it can be overclocked upto 1.3 Ghz and the battery just stands whatever you throw at it. So unless you wanna raise the standards up a notch I'd say go for the DEFY eyes closed.

It's the best phone in it's class. Hardy anyone beat defy at it price.best yøµ should have one.

Picking it up today, can't wait!!

This is the best phone I've ever used and I've used a few...
Better than iphone 3GS, SGS, HD2, Pre2 and I'm sure the list goes on...
Outstanding! and I haven't even flashed a custom rom yet, it's so good I might leave it as stock for a while..

Hey..need a quick help on my query..i have preinstalled 2.2.2 out of box (india)..can I flash cm7 directly or do I have to flash that nordic version first?

@Duflet: Just my opinion, I cant wait for my defy....
@govinda123: Thats no Problem, you can start with any froyo ROM.
This is a good guide to help you install CM7 (its not mine thanks to: pjgowtham )

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
U don't need to flash Nordic if u have Froyo preinstalled! I had the same question & I asked it before. Take a look here

My opinion (having had my defy since feb, bro and partner both have SGS i9000s, partner had a galaxy i5500 before that, mum has an LG P500, and colleagues have Orange San Fran and various HTCs)...
Defy running stock firmware is pretty bad. It isn't usable as a serious smartphone because it gets so bogged down in lag, FCs, etc. Maps was unusable on moto 2.2 firmware.
Defy running CM7 is the best Android phone I've used. Quick, responsive, stable.
Other manufacturers are apparently taking notice, as both Sony (Xperia Active) and Samsung (Galaxy XCover) are coming out with ruggedised smartphones. However, both of those phones only have 480x320 displays, while Defy has 854x480. I'm not sure why those manufacturers believe that you must compromise this aspect of a ruggedised phone?
Anyway, to those new Defy owners in this thread - Congratulations, welcome, and get CM7. NOW!

Fake iphone to android

Hey guys i need help
My cousin bought fake iphone 4 (MC61OLL) with strange software (KINGSTAR35_68B_HW)
What i wana know is can i put android on it?
thanks for help

Easy. Reverse engineer the phone's OS and rewrite it for linux, write a kernel, then compile. You may need to do some hardware modifying to be able to load the android...
Or an easier way is to buy a real android device. Seriously.

he wanted a cheap phone for his son...
oke thank you
can i find somewhere steps or?

I think that the steps should be very difficult...you can jailbreak it if you want but i dont think that you can change the iOS into Android 2.3.x

its not the iOS I think that it is some kind of java software based on android

just buy a new iphone

wow take the guy down a notch realy. sorry but hounding the guy cause he asked a question isn't very nice I understand everyone isn't nice. but really. here's what you need to do send me a pm with the specs of the phone maybe if it is running a version of android you can install a diff luancher. unless you have an idea don't just kick the guy when he is down. please grow up.sorry if this offends anyone but lets be civil. I can do some research for you I am not a developer nor do I plane on being one. just remember the g tablet viewsonic put out it was **** but now. that was my first android device. I. have a few of them and know a few developers. just pm me thanks

mmmm I think tht if is not iOS it wuold possible to delete it and re-install another one...mmmm how??? XD

So it appears that you have the knock-off HiPhone or SciPhone. Which seems not run Android, but a form of Java. This would generally mean you are stuck with that system unless you could port android which would depend on the specs. So what are the Technical Details of this device??
In my opinion this entire process might be a long and fruitless mission but that is only my opinion Its your choice entirely!!

Porting android is not easy
If you're a programmer and are willing to put in 100's of hours finding and compiling the right drivers, then maybe, but its not worth it to invest all this hours in some Chinese crap, there are enough cheap android devices.

Itz very difficult dude.100 hours I think that it takes more more more hours if you are a good programmer.anyway yu could ask on web to someone to do this kind of job paying money...You think??

no you cant

Fake Iphone
Hi,
I have a fake Iphone, and before you tell me to get a new phone, I already have an android. I just want a challenge as an aspiring developer.
The specs are:
Capacity: 32G
Version: F6A_CLD_IV_SA1G256_10A_MSFWR_200W_V3-2_V0
It is a Chinese phone running some type of JAVA software.
I am willing to put in time to find and/or create the right drivers and roms, but I would need help in this project. If anyone can assist me with information, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

One of my clients gave me one of these, it's pretty clever, looks a lot like iOS 8.0.2. But is is most likely KitKat, and it's running a Go Launcher theme that it pretty convincing. I installed ES Explorer, it's definitely not iOS, with a clearly Android FS. Whoever made this, it was a lot of work - They were able to make a totally authentic iPhone 6, but one thing prevents any version of iOS- iboot. All I can say is HAHAHA!
Hell, I don't care about activating it, it's probably impossible, but I'd like to find the drivers for it so I can load it up with my Android goodies. I guess I'll just use Es Explorer to connect to my SMB and grab what I need.
My ZTE phone has the drivers accessible if powered down. Yes, when I power down, it comes up as MT65xx preloader. It came up with these, but I still can't read the mounted drives:

[Q] Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombie - Doesn't Work

As the title says, all my other Android games work flawlessly on this device. Black Ops Zombies does not work. It will load the levels and has graphical glitches. It also works on all my other Android devices. Does anybody else have this problem or know of a solution?

Even the Android Market says it's not compatible with my A100 on the left where it lists all of my devices. So does it just not work with our tablet? I've read online where people said they had it working and i've seen screenshots of ROMS where Black Ops Zombies was installed...

Ill give you a hint, if you play it on a device listed as incompatible, and it doesn't work, then maybe its not compatible with the device?
Otherwise consider chainfire and some testing to see if you can get it going.

Well first off, you don't have to be an asshole. I'm not stupid. I was simply asking a question based on bits and pieces of information I have been given and I wanted an answer from other people who use this tablet as to whether they have gotten this game to work or not. It's really simple as that. You must not have read what I posted in it's entirety.
I am well aware that the A100 is listed as a non-compatible device. But like I said, I have seen ROM screenshots for this tablet showing Black Ops Zombies installed and have read elsewhere that it is reported to be working on this device. I have messed around with Chainfire 3D to see if I could get it to work with no avail, I was simply wanting to know the experience of other users with this tablet trying to play the same game. Your Condescending tone isn't need. Take your negativity somewhere else.
Isn't that what these forums are for? To ask questions and to gather knowledge if you are uncertain about something?

You didn't mention it was for the a100, just that it was working, that could mean it works on the nexus 7. Sorry you took my posting of the obvious as being an ahole, but not sure why the name calling needed to be done, I didn't call you stupid for the stupidity of the posting you did, and I did offer some advice which you could have mentioned as having already been tested, a good thing to remember for any posting about needing help, list what you've tried. May also want to mention which roms you have tried this game on and if they all have the same error or issues. Some games may not get along with JB but work with ICS, or maybe even HC is better. As its a newer game my money would be on JB, but of course testing would be needed.
But I'm an ahole so don't mind my suggestions and instead call me names, go on a rant and ignore any advice given. Again.
Reminded, once again, of why I left this community. Good luck with the game, hope you figure it out.
Edit: nevermind, beyond what was needed. Like the rest of the post.

I love android because it gives apple a good run for their ICR*P.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

My story begins when I took a visit to a t-mobile store and purchased my first smart phone: a my touch 3g slide. I learned a lot from that tank of a device. I think I spent 8 hours or more reading xda before I finally gained root access.
I love android for way too many reasons than I can list here. But my top reasons include:
Not being locked down to what some corporation says I will enjoy.
Having a sense of community on XDA with like-minded individuals.
Having the freedom to truly make my device mine.
Getting a new hobby which I'm constantly intellectually simulated and challenged.
Being able to perform tasks that usually could only be performed on my computer on the go.
To say that Android has changed my life for the better would be an understatement. Not only has it made my communications easier, is made a lot of my daily tasks either automated, faster or streamlined.
I can't think of any mobile platform that can currently accomplish everything android can. At least not so effortlessly. Many have made the claim but anyone who does their research knows that the claims are false.

I love android because it let's me make my phone the way I want it.

^^^Isn't that breaking the rules of the contest? LoL
Why do I love android?
I love android because of the freedom it offers. Its not limited to one phone, released by one company, released once a year. Android hasn't really changed the way I look for a smart phone, but XDA sure has.
How I came to Android and how it has positively impacted my day to day routine?
Well, like many others, I was an apple fanboy at one time and I had that one friend that had to rub in my face how much better his android phone was than my iPhone 2g (my favorite iPhone of them all...seriously). I got tired of my friend showing of his android phone (the original droid with the keyboard) so I traded my iPhone 2g for a Mytouch 3g with the 3.5mm headphone jack. Oh my god, I fell in love with android, being able to add widgets to the home screen blew my mind. Ever since I've had nothing but android devices (I played with an iPhone here and there, couldn't resist). Android has not positively impacted my life in any way, shape or form. It made me discover XDA and then I became a flash-aholic (may need a 12-step program lol). To be serious, android has positively impacted my life, it made me realize how much more I can do and allows me to do with a phone.
Android Superior?
Yes and no. Without the Devs and helpful members here on XDA, I think I would be on the borderline of switching back to an iPhone. The main reason I like iphones is because of the battery life and the stability of the OS. Without XDA, we would be stuck with whatever Google and the OEM gives us, which is fine for average user who just texts, uses internet, play games and make calls as well as download a home screen replacement and a few widgets, but most of us here on XDA are here for a reason. In some ways Android is superior to other OS's, but in other ways the other OS's are superior.
