[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cplnoonoo:
So just a quick update.

Something went totally wrong the other night on its own. This is before i had even thought of upgrading that night. Was sitting on facebook happily playing away when it started force closing within a few seconds of opening. Tried to open the market to reinstall the facebook app and the market force closed in a few seconds. It did this with every app including the email and phone etc. Even the RyansOCLF would forceclose so i couldnt remove the lagfix or unroot etc. All my settings for apps and launcher pro settings had disappeared. Only a couple of icons i had set on the home screen of launcher pro remained but i couldnt use any of them. All my phone logs were there and so were my texts etc but everything else had reset. When i tried to reapply some of my settings and then restart the phone, when i had finished the restart the settings i had reapplyed had defaulted again. Disaster!!

The only thing i could do was run a factory reset from the options menu. I crossed my fingers hoping this wouldnt brick the phone and alas it worked perfectly. Sorted out kies and connected the phone and installed 2.2.1 android. The lagfix had been cleared by the factory reset. I keep wondering if this is why i had so many problems with it taking ages to start up before. Maybe because the lagfix never really worked properly it never fully rebuilt the file system so was removed easily? Although the benchmarks were coming up double the speed of the fastest device on the results so not too sure how it was performing so fast with a duff lagfix...who knows. Anyway got it all up and running and rooted and lagfixed using the voodoo fix. Stuck launcher pro on setup everything. Got the apps i previously purchased reinstalled and restored any apps i wanted from titanium backup. Works like a dream and alot better memory usage aswell.

Thanks for all the help guys but it seems although i didnt follow any of the instructions you all posted (not out of choice...just because the phone physically wouldnt let me) it seemed to get the upgrade done without any problems.

Any news about when they will be available?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] thetwiztidfreak:
No offical announcemnt yet but i am waiting for this as well. the verizon website does now list list an inductive back plate though here a link:

http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?&action=accessoryDetails&accessoryId=47423

I wonder if this would be compatible with one of those powermats. also i was looking and the back plate for the evo looks almost identical to the TB one, so i wonder if the powermat kit for the evo would in turn work for our TBs, any one know if any of this would work?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ilogik:
I've noticed the bump in the cover, almost like the extended battery one. That will be a problem because of cases and docks, kind of disappointing.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] mcmillanje:
If it's anything like palm's efforts, a case would thwart the inductive charging process anyway.

Hi All,

I have started using X10i a month or so back and so far have been flashing many ROMS and finally settled on CM6 mod by [Cyanogen6.1.3]gingerbread[v01] : by http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=1022236

However now i am moving to the next step which i thing would be to mod my own ROM. however after looking at the whole forum i was not able to find some straight forward startup guide for this.

can anyone help me on this.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
Well, are you interested in modding the ROM in its core,

or applying modifications like themes, framework-res changes and tweaks?

Because if the latter is the case, it's quite easy.

You just open the ROM zip and tweak yourself away! :D

But if you actually want to build a ROM, then, as it has been already said,

it is not easy.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dx.varun:
Yeah ur are 100% correct mate... and this is the way to spread education ... not by the way of getting rude... and 2ndly yeah building rom is not easy but everything shud be tried then only +ive results can be achived..;)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anantshri:
Thanks for the tip buddy seems like i will start with some tweaks and move forward to custom ROMS as i gain more traction in the whole android world.

[LG Optimus 2x] tiwiz:
Hello everyone,

I was reading all the posts about Custom Roms and I wanted to make something like an "XDA-Rom"... Maybe it would be better if I explain what I mean :)

Beginning from the system, I'd say it should be a very lightweight Rom (like the Gilgamesh one), so, without almost all the LG crapware. But I'd keep only few things of this softwares:

- contact manager (so far it's the best one I've found, but maybe because I lack of experience)

- keyboard (on some videos they say it's the fastest one, but I may be in error)

- LG home and Home switcher, so that we can keep the mirroring app working when needed.

Then, I'd add the last MoDaCo kernel (the ROM should be working in EXT4, if I understtod correctly, this shall make the phone faster), maybe we could make a proper boot animation, and just few app that are (in my opinion) the only really needed, like the gmail app, the calendar one and only the basic things. We could even update the baseband and root the phone directly from the rom, so that after a fresh install it's already running. I'd replace even the LG lockscreen, that is really nice, but it's too slow (when I switch on the screen, I see the home and then the locked screen, this shouldn't happen with the default lockscreen).

Ofc, any suggestion is welcome :)

Thanks for reading, and I hope my idea is not that bad :)
[LG Optimus 2x] wh1tekn1ght:
I agree on the bootanimation.

:D
[LG Optimus 2x] tiwiz:
Only on that? :D d'oh, I wrote for half an hour :D :D btw, I'd add Root Explorer as default as well... but I don't know how to do, I mean, would be enough to create the ROM with the kitchen (really a nice tool!) and then edit the *img files adding the software I want in the /system/app directory? Maybe this is a noobish question, but it's the first time I even get closer to creating a custom rom :)
[LG Optimus 2x] jovienc:
Oh, integrate BLN to have notifications would be a great idea ! (if you touch the kernel)
[LG Optimus 2x] Mehrsau:
the root explorer is not for free.. so forget about this ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] winzhangout:
Why? Install modaco and use filexplorer and delete all thing u dont want instead :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] tiwiz:
For the experience, I'd like to test :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Novek:
Just use the online kitchen... :P

I was actually 30 mins from posting a pretty close ROM to what you mention here yesterday, but built the one I'd like online instead (except for some tweaks I put in laster on).

If people is more open for a ROM like this for direct download, I'm happy to compile/maintain it :) Just thought that it wasn't needed...
[Galaxy Tab General] SDW90808:
After spending countless hours trying to re-root my Sprint Galaxy Tab I finally got it.

1.) Used the Odin flashing instructions with Odin3 v1.7 and Sprint drivers included in Zip file.

2.) Used Super One Click but checked psneuter instead of rageagainstthecage

Since I have no idea what psneuter is supposed to do and since nothing else worked, I gave it a try and voila!

I can't be the only one who has cried themselves to sleep over this, so if you would like to PM me for the specific files, I'll be happy to respond. Standard disclaimers apply.
[HD2 General] iainbp:
Just a quick question how do I unlock my phone so any sim card will work ? I'm on virgin and got another sim but it won't work .
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
You have to get a unlock code to enter into your phone and you havecti have a SIM card from another carrier, (which you said you have already). You can check with the carrier company that you bought the HD2 from if you are still a customer of theirs and see if you can get a unlock code from them maybe for free. You will just have to give them a valid reason why you want the code such as you want to use the phone with the carrier you are moving to.

If you can not get a code from the carrier than you will have to go to eBay or some other sites to buy a code. The code is not expensive and where ever you get the code will give you detailed instructions on how to enter the code into your phone. Search this forum and you will find a lot of threads on unlocking the HD2 and good places to buy a code from.

I noticed your sig says Desire HD, but you can still use the threads in this forum to find were to get a unlock code for your phone.
[HD2 General] iainbp:
Thank you. Yeah says desire but I have a hd2 with Android rom

I removed some applications to regain some storage space but it is depleting constantly. I cannot figure it out why. I use SD card to keep Opera cache. How can I prevent the storage space from depleting? Thanks.
[HD2 General] Urvansh:
I had same problem. I realised that when iuse you tube hundreds of files download temporary in system/windows/you tube. So delete that folder completely. But you will loose your history. And see in the folder system/application data/htc/ htc album/cache. And delte all files except maptable and thumbcaches. These files are not needed. and it also weighs a lot.
[HD2 General] adell_:
Thanks a lot Urvansh. I deleted all the files in htc album/cache except maptable and thumbcaches as you suggested. The files I deleted had taken about 18MB.
[HD2 General] reijkelhof:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=923663

low on internal storage memory?, read this:

It seems that opera9 keeps all cab files you downloaded in the folder:

windows/opera9/profile/download/

I bet you opera10 does the same.

I had about 79MB of application cab files there, using up internal storage memory, which I did not need, and had no idea were there.

I found them using 'treesize mobile', available on the marketplace for free.

Also, I checked the program files folder and found that applications which I had previously uninstalled still had folders in there with files in them.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Go check out Clear Temp which is a great little app that helps you keep most of those pesky temp folders cleaned out and not using memory resources.

Well the things that I want to know personaly :

- Maybe some benchmarks results if you can (quadrant, nenamark) ? in order to see if drivers have been somewhat optimized for the GPU

- Which version of android was on the prototype you tested ? 2.3.1 or the latest 2.3.3?

- How is the web browser on heavy pages ? and withn flash content ? still smooth ?
[Galaxy S II General] Hero Yu:
Galaxy s vs s2

Apologies for mr blurry. I used my phone had to take these photos swiftly. But please ask away
[Galaxy S II General] Hero Yu:
Looks like the sun blocked the image but its running GB 2.3.3.

The phone I had was a uk version 16 gb model but can take a 64 gb sd card! Its also enyos processor.

I wasn't able to do a bench mark but we played flash games on it. Lag did not exist on this phone:)

I also have a release date but let me get permission first ;)
[Galaxy S II General] touness69:
wow thanks a ton :)

Can't wait to get my hands on one when it's out

Questions

Can you post some pictures of benchmarks results?

How is the SGII compared to LG 2X?

Does your SGII have a 1.2 ghz processor? Link: gsmarena.com/samsung_i9100_galaxy_s_ii_dualcore_cpu_will_run_at_12_ghz-news-2491.php
[Galaxy S II General] HTC_Spree:
Hey nice work!

Whats about the quality of the case does it feel cheap like SGS I or feels it better? Because the cover for the akku looks always very thin on the pics...

Did you mention anny lag during testing the phone (like slow programmstart or during switching the home screen...)
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
Hello, thx for sharing this information with us, how do you find the screen quality compared to samsung galaxy s?
[Galaxy S II General] zoneking:
do you mean the phone tv out through 3.5mm jack?because my tv dont have hdmi port.

and is there an＂auto power up＂setting in its alarm settings?
[Galaxy S II General] Hero Yu:
I can only confirm a few things. Don't wanna get my arse kicked ;)

I can confirm

Screen pixalation very very high, fantastic for photos at long range or macro.

Internets smooth even with large heavy pages.

Text is crisp.

The samoled 2 has much better battery consumption compared to superamoled.

1.2 ghz dual exnyos proccessor

Phone feels much more premium, has textured back just like galaxy ace . Feels ready good in the hand it felt lighter than the galaxy s. Gotta get back to work:)
[Galaxy S II General] hazard99:
this looks really nice. I hope the bootloader isnt locked!
[Galaxy S II General] Hero Yu:
Yes the galaxy s2 that we had had tv out via 3.5 jack and hdmi out via mhl usb.

Many thanks for you're comments & insight so far :)

[Galaxy S II General] turt:
Hi, thanks for all these first-hand informations!

I don't want you to have troubles, but do you know if there's truth in the rumour of delays till june for the phone? I don't need a precise date, just give us the most precise information you are allowed to give ;)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] amtrakcn:
Wait a second, 1.2GHz?
[Galaxy S II General] bouaroudj:
Yes !!!

Can you confirm please.

Are you able to test games? Dungeon defender ?
[Galaxy S II General] Hero Yu:
I can confirm that the phone had not been delayed. It will launch very soon

Yes 1.2 ghz dual core baby!!!

Dungeon defenders no problem. No lag. Even played a playstation title but thats all I can say on that story. Samsung really worked hard on this phone. Perfection.
[Galaxy S II General] Azdian:
i don't mind to see some spoilers :D

is the MHL cable in the box ? or an extra accessory that we should buy ? :p
[Galaxy S II General] imbapanda:
Yu, did you happen to see the tablets as well? Rumors on the internets say the phone and tablets could be released at the same time. It also would follow that the changes in the SGS2 (processor, filesystem, SDXC) would also happen in the tablets too.
[Galaxy S II General] RaspyYeti:
Can you run the NDT measurementlab app find out the top estimated 3G speed.

[Galaxy S II General] dehugin:
your welcome :D
[Galaxy S II General] beWater:
Thanks a ton for the information.

Just wondering how well does the LED flash perform compare to Nexus S. I always feel the camera is one biggest weak spot in Samsung phones, but SGS2 packs a 8MP camera, so I start to wonder how good the flash will be.
[Galaxy S II General] Banner:
Am I the onoly one that has a hard time believing all of this ?

We've written about 20 pages profusely thanking and asking questions about the product, but all we've had so far is a bit of information we kind of tacitly knew already.

Until I actually see pictures, a benchmark or any kind of information backed up with proof of something we asked explicitly in this thread, I will have doubts as to the veracity of Hero Yu's claim; But that's just me though : I have trust issues and need proof to believe what I'm being told.

We'll see how this plays out
[Galaxy S II General] Rytkonen:
Same here. I am kinda "pix or didnt happen" type of a person. :D I am not saying that Hero Yu is lying, I just don't believe anything before I see actual proof.

[Galaxy S II General] golf2vr6:
As far as i know there isn't... but in time when you can root the sgs2, you can use touchbuttons to light up just like SGS1.

(or even better, maybe samsung has done this as standard...wild guess)

thnx Ewivis :p

[Galaxy S II General] Techno79:
I really hope there's a notification light as that was one of the downsides to the original SGS. There are workarounds such as the back light notification application but it's surprising how much this can light up the whole room in the middle of the night (not great for light sleepers). Plus, proper notification light support from Samsung means that we may have different colours and be able to have them flash to indicate different things. Oh well, it's not a deal breaker for me.
[Galaxy S II General] Banner:
No, he didn't. But he also hasn't obliged to any of our requests. For all we know, these pictures were taken ages ago at the MWC. I mean, someone from samsung took pictures of it and then sent them to relatives and such and hero yu happens to be one of them.

Hero Yu, Why don't you take a picture of the phone with a post-it pasted on or next to it saying "Hero Yu" ?

Now that would definitely lay my doubts to rest. Until then, allow me to be a skeptic.
[Galaxy S II General] Beards:
No he didn't... which then starts further questions.....
