Need to make /system folder writable (rw). Use sgstools or search to make /system folder writable by default in cwm if you use speedmod.

isn't there is a button on top in root explorer could make the folder R/O or R/W, even i click it as R/W the copy is still not successful.

tried SGS Tools, doesn't seem to have such command.

i have CWM but I'm on CF-root JVP kernel with JV9 stock rom, not speedmod... any other suggestion?

Some people(or should I say most people) prefer to shop in Pavillion where every shops are quality controlled by the management and everything they buy is authentic.  While some like it in the Pasar Malam where pretty where the shops have the freedom to sell whatever they want.  Its pretty obvious where most people choose to go and trying to tell them that they are stupid anly make you look stupid.

So you got your choice now.  If freedom is what you brag about so much, then you already know your choice.

The front door was never locked!  That is how the customer got in.  What the owner did was to make sure the customer don't have the key to the back door so that they can come back later to steal the records.

You probably patched your camera APK with Damian's camera fix (Before the newer sources were released, all JVK/JVH front cameras had a problem). You can revert by using the stock camera.

- sgstools: open it > apply script > click mount_system_rw.q.txt
- not familiar with cf-root

- to check if /system folder is mounted rw, use Terminal Emulator app, open it, type
CODE

$ su  
# mount


If it is rw at the same line with /system, then it is writable.

Not going to upgrade XXJVP yet. Waiting for it to be released by Samsung. Who knows, they might even fix some lags in some games reported by the users.

so far no lags in games for me, I think it's app-specific as they only exp it on tap tap

Use ADB. Need some time to set it up first.
Meaning if you decide that you want to use another software to manage your media, the next update for itunes and iOS will break the sync support for that software. Apple will want to lock you into using Itunes.

The reason is very simple. Other software like winamp or banshee in Linux has their own music store or podcast. This scares apple to death. They want people to buy music from itunes (they make 30% cut from it), not from another music store.

Having a software that manages all your media, podcasts, ebooks and all that is very nice. However, when you are forced to use buggy itunes only, it is an disadvantage to consumer POV because they are restricted to one choice only.

That is a monopoly. I like a platform where competition is present because it will always spur better innovations.
*
oh man....
simply put it this way. itunes are for dumb or busy people.
the more time I spend on configuring it or flashing new rom the more I finds that I'm not being productive on my job.
Android is great, but I find it's a little too fragmented. things I built on a certain brand of phone doesn't means it'll be working 100% on the next device.

We have to give credits to apple for making a unified environment which helps to build an ecosystem where users can buy stuff with no hassle at all. and those stores are selling music, apps, books, podcast, videos and etc all under the hood of itunes. When all of this are acting the way like they said "it just works" then why would anybody wanted to use their i-devices with other manager other than itunes?

Even though android have came to the point where google are selling us app with market. but they still hasn't cover the music, books, podcast and videos. To a single user experience that would be very fragmented where they have to go to different vendor (amazon for example) to get what they want.

It's a shame that android still hasn't catch up to ios on the user experience yet.

Other than that, I guess us geeks can enjoy to have all of the freedom to use android the way we want while let the non geek happy with a simple unified itunes store.

Sorry mate, I can't help but to point this out so that we have to make it clear that itunes are not meant to break the sync the way u've mentioned it. u are just not playing by the rule.

When you own a music store, what do you do when your client walk in.  Tell them to go next door to buy?

dude. that's the reaction of most ios users.
the feel just right at home with buying stuff. and it's all under 1 unified environment. this helps to monetize the ecosystem.
if google don't do anything about android's fragmentation, most likely android wouldn't be get as big as what ios can achieve.

oh boy, I hope u guys won't think that i'm a fan boy for anything. I just came in to the discussion on this halfway reading the threads. So i'm not on any side.
Sometimes, I just finds that the comments on itunes are inaccurate that's why I wanted to make a comment here.

[quote=gmhafiz,Jun 12 2011, 05:53 PM]
I can go to the Pavilion too but they don't lock me in.

why would u say they are locking us in?
they are just providing a place where we can buy stuff on our own will. they offer in app purchase for other apps as well. well... it's true that they want a 30% cut to the profit. but I guess when they are providing an excellent mall (like pavillion) while there are high amount of hit (visitors). if they can make the sale riding on the success of the store. why not?
if u mean u wanted to buy songs from else where.... with IOS u still can buy ur own CD and rip it with itunes. u still can buy songs from amazon and sync it with itunes.

Android market and Amazon are making a cut out of the sales too. no one's doing it for charity.

Anyway, what I like about android SDK is that it's free.

I've had an Ipod and I currently have an SGS. I've used ITunes on the Ipod and Itunes to sync music to my SGS as well. I've also used winamp to wirelessly sync music to my android device. I know you can't sync music wirelessly over ITunes...unless they've changed that. My opinion is that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. We had this exact same discussion about Apple vs Android tens of pages ago started by the same guy who started this argument again. Can't we just agree to disagree and continue discussing more productive stuff? Like how we helped darkz88 solve his flashing problem? Btw lightning69, hows ur GPS issue?

Support or not. I'm more concerns about keeping the facts right.

We should be smart with the choice we have. not blindly believing in what we wanted to believe.

For example
1.) Sony PS3 vs xbox 360. I owns a PS3 eventhough I knew 360 is even more superior with their xbox live.
2.) I still use SGS even I knew IOS has got better user experience.
3.) I still develop apps for IOS even I can make apps easier and quicker in android SDK.

I'd answer it happens out of convenience.
1.) Most of my friends bought ps3.
2.) My client was complaining that my iphone 2g was dropping calls. and I wanted to check out android development.
3.) the money is still in IOS.
