Do you have an efs backup with the good imei ? If you have , flash another odin rom like EZROM with repartition , than install root explorer or other stuff and replace the efs with the correct one .

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vito Andolini Corleone:
Crash system server via Dev tools. But before doing that. Make sure that you you check which baseband are you using, Make sure whether its compatible with the rom.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtrai:
Check your baseband version to make sure it is correct for the Tom you flashed. If it shows unknown flash correct baseband. Also if you have dev tools app....bad behavior...then crash system server....see if this fixes it.

hi guys i found this page i a post in in milestone gerneral

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...-200-with-a-simple-tweak-hands-on-benchmarks/

(pls read before reading this further on)

i wonder if its possible to port this .zips to work in openrecovery cause i tried it and i dindn't have any effect and i wasn't able to install them via CWM.

So i edited the file manually to the different values and found out that 3072kb is the best one.

it pushed the writespeed from 3,5mb/s to 5mb/s

and the readspeed from 10mb/s to 30mb/s --> 16gb class 4 sd card

anybody who is able to do this?

greetings from me ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hefonthefjords:
there's an app in the market that can apply this change called "sd speed boost".

i also concluded that 3072 achieved the best speeds.

here are my results for 2048, 3072 & 4096.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sdtaddey:
Strange!!

Check this out:

Pick1= 128(default)

Pick2= 2024

Why the writing speed decreased that much?!!!

PS: I don't know if is an optical illusion, but my app using app2ext are opening faster than before ( just a bit, but it's noticeable)

[About XDA developers] knightmare_extreme:
Guys i would recommend that you look into modding Fords SYNC software and adding it as a seperate category. It seems to the be the next big mobile platform that combines all the phone connectivity along with an opportunity to do so much more.

All mobile manufacturer's are now jumping on the bandwagon and because it powered by Microsoft ... so it shouldn't be too hard to crack...
[Samsung Mesmerize] jdieken:
I use the pattern lock on my Mez. Right now it says US Cellular when locked, my concern is if I misplace my phone and it's found, no one will know who's phone it is because it will be locked. Is there a way to Change the text to include a name or contact information?
[Samsung Mesmerize] mparkerfd20:
There used to be a way to change it on the Hero, but I'm not sure if the same file exists on Samsung. You could pull the eri.xml file, edit it, and push it back out to the phone on the Hero, but I haven't done enough research to see if it's possible on the galaxy. You might be able to edit something in the framework though. I'm sure it's possible. Maybe someone who's played around with theming a little more than I have can lend some assistance.
[Samsung Mesmerize] add144:
If losing your phone is a concern (i.e. it happens a lot for you) you could always sign up for Wavesecure. I don't remember how much it costs, I got grandfathered in before it cost money, but its a handy service. It will allow you to lock down your phone using a computer or a special SMS sent to the phone that'll make the phone unusable and will display contact information.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma0456:
Scenario: Installed Vegan 5 on gtablet. Play angry Birds and get to level 20, input my location into Weatherbug, setup icons in launcher, configure wireless, write a short note in quickoffice and set up network share in Astro. Now, do a clockwork backup of the rom. I wish to now install TNT lite 4.4. Before installing a new rom you usually wipe partitons, etc. then install the rom. After the install I have to do all these things again, including starting over in Angry Birds! Especially annoying is having to set up the desktop again (after I re-install all the apps). What I would like to be able to do is use TNT-lite 4.4 today and tomorrow restore Vegan 5 and have all my user data and settings from today persist into the other rom. I would think settings are stored somewhere that could be preserved between rom installations. Can this be done?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
Not going to happen.

You can use Titanium Backup Pro to backup your apps and data (don't backup system apps though) and restore them with your game progress, etc....

But you can't have persistent configuration/data between different ROM installs.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma0456:
I was afraid that would be the answer. Going the Titanium Backup route - I'm looking at the backup/restore screen at the list of apps. You recommend not backing up system apps. Short of "just knowing" from experience, is there a way to identify system apps in the list? Clearly Angry Birds is not but what about email 2.2, download manager 2.2, etc. I'm pretty sure they are but is there a definite way to tell? Or, can I just backup the whole batch and then only restore things like Angry Birds to retain my game progress?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
There are batch options in the Backup/Restore tab that give you a one click backup of what you are looking for.....

Hit the menu button when on the Backup/Restore tab in Titanium Backup and choose "Batch", then "Backup all User Apps" and this will be all the apps you have downloaded and their data (game progress, notes, etc..).

I assume that I need to configure TB tl write to sdcard2 so it can be restored after a different r.o.m is installed? I'm unclear as to what gets wiped during the install/restore process.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
/sdcard does not get wiped unless you repartition the device. You can also sync to dropbox in the paid version.

"today in meeting Samsung told me no 3.0 for Galaxy Tab. (Problem = Hardware.)"

To put these statements in perspective:

http://androidandme.com/2010/09/news/galaxy-tab-qa-honeycomb-tablet-coming-next-year/

"The Samsung Galaxy Tab will launch with FroYo (Android 2.2) and eventually be upgraded to Gingerbread (maybe Android 3.0), but Samsung said Honeycomb was for a different kind of tablet experience."

“Moving forward with Honeycomb, that will be used in the next generation tablet as it is specifically optimized for different type of tablet, and will be used on another product only.”
[Galaxy Tab General] wallah:
it stinks samsung, samsung ever for me, any product that carries this brand will be part of my house !!!!!!!!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

he not take care of their customers and it will lose one today! of that there is a 7-inch tab with another brand, I buy, preference for HTC !!! ;)

thanks for this news, even if it is bad :D
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
Have they posted the source for this 'quote'? Probably not. Things like this shouldn't be believed until its official.
[Galaxy Tab General] TheATHEiST:
I would take anything samfirmware takes with a pinch of salt. It was the same site that said Samsung IS updating to honeycomb not so long back.

Until Samsung themselves say anything ill wait.
[Galaxy Tab General] lambstone:

"@SamFirmware: Samsung: No Android 3.0 for Galaxy Tab but free ipads for tab owners."
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
Agreed! Lets wait for an official response but I'm pretty sure its true.

Ps-this has nothing to do with development do why did you put it in this section? We all need to do our part in cleaning & maintaining these threads.
[Galaxy Tab General] btyork:
These are the same people who have bricked more tabs than fixed.

I trust Samfirmwares as far as I can throw a fat kid. Bout 2 inches.
[Galaxy Tab General] jcaf77:
I dont see an abysmal difference between 2.2, 2.3 ... 3.0, everything works pretty much the same. the layout of 3.0 may not be the best for a 7inch tablet anyways... perhaps google will meet us halfway and release something that is not 3.0 but will run apps made for 3.0 or something like that. if we never get 3.0 its not going to be a big deal for me, maybe I am on a different situation because I just got it, and most of you have had it for while. and I could get the xoom if 3.0 was that big of a deal but I've played with the xoom and its just too big for me, I like the portability of the galaxy tab and that is more imporant that having honeycomb.
[Galaxy Tab General] faust86:
Honeycomb was the last reason to keep GTAB... now i will sell it and buy Kindle...
[Galaxy Tab General] btyork:
How many devices are out there right now with ROMs on them that aren't official or haven't even been released?

Crummy reason to give up the best available tablet on the market today. (That's called an opinion, and I'm entitled to mine)
[Galaxy Tab General] biohaz55:
I'm fairly confident that at some stage we will have fully functional and stable honeycomb on our tabs. Does it really matter if it's not an official Samsung release?

After all, if all we're interested in is getting official updates from vendor sources then there's little or no point being on these forums.

Have faith in the developers here, in my opinion they provide more reliable roms than the vendors!
[Galaxy Tab General] abuser0815:
just one question, what the hell do you guys expect? if somebody port honeycomb to the tab we will have it. but whats the point? what you are actual missing on your tab? why need sooo much honeycomb? i guess in 95% of all cases its just the childish "must have" instinct like me....

so stay calm, lets enjoy our tab and stop to blame samsung....
[Galaxy Tab General] wallah:
I did quite trust the dev here, more than a samsung, but I am disappointed to have paid a very expensive tablet and end samsung not take care of customers, but many want our money !!! :mad:

[Galaxy Tab General] lilstevie:
I trust samfirmware saying no honeycomb for the galaxy tab as much as I trust apple to tell me a quote from samsung[1]. wait for official sources to confirm or deny.

[1] referring to steve jobs displaying the misquote of samsung's ceo at the iPad2 event
[Galaxy Tab General] adeon78:
Maybe because some apps will only work on honeycomb.
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Can anyone here honestly say that they bought there Tab because Samsung said that it would get Honeycomb? I don't recall Samsung ever officially saying anything of the sort personally, though I stand ready to be corrected!

Yes, it would be really nice to get an official Honeycomb ROM, but when I bought my Tab I knew it was coming with Froyo and I knew that Samsungs track record in the past with respect to new Android versions wasn't great.

If we get Gingerbread out of Samsung, I'd say that was a win personally.

Dave

EDIT: Interesting article here dated September 2010, where Samsung effectively say that the Tab 7" wouldn't get Honeycomb.
[Galaxy Tab General] msewidan:

Erhhh, you're coming a bit late to the party here! ;)

a) This is based on the work of spacemoose1 from these forums for CDMA Tabs.

b) Many people here have flashed it or tried flashing it.

c) At best, it can be considered a very early alpha - it isn't in a state where you could remotely use it as a daily driver!

Not sure my life will ever be fulfilled without 3.0. Seriously do you know how bad this whining sounds. Not sure about you but my tab works great with the current os. I don't see how 3.0 will enhance my user experience to the point where I'm gonna be crying in the forums if I don't get it.

Are you even reading what you are typing? They are LEAKED roms. These roms came to them from UNOFFICIAL sources and they modified and/or posted them. NOTHING, I repeat N.O.T.H.I.N.G. about samfirmwares.com is OFFICIAL, yet two posts earlier you used that as one of your points.

[Galaxy Tab General] Earthbrain:
When I bought my 2011 BMW 550i F10, I did not expect it to be automatically upgraded to the 2012 version.

I bought the 2011 version and expect to drive and experience the 2011 version.

Using a little brain power, you can see that the same analogy can be applied to the Galaxy Tab.
[Galaxy Tab General] sano614:
That's hardware.. You can't compare. We're not asking for this to magically turn into a dual core Tegra 2. If you have software issues on your car, and the manufacturer releases a revision, or new version, you will get that. For free.

This is software, that Samsung already has in their hands...

And in a market where everyone is trying to out do Apple, where majority of their devices get all of Apples updates, this isn't good, imo.

But who knows if this is even true or not. When the Galaxy Tab first came out, didn't Samsung quickly say that the Tab would definitely get the next OS version?
[Galaxy Tab General] wallah:
+1 for that i agree with you 10000000% :D
[Galaxy Tab General] hourst2:
Samsung is notorious for not updating their devices. They put out new devices instead. They might eventually update the tab, but it will be very late in the game. Samsung has stated that they detest the concept of updating old hardware--couple this with the fact that Google has come out and said that tablets running anything less than 3.0 should not get HC--and I think you have the answer. You will get HC from the forums LONG before you get it from Sammy. One of the biggest issues is the Sammy file system, which is a dud. I believe that, since the Nexus S, Sammy has embraced Ext 4 so updating should not be a problem for future devices, but that does not include the GT.
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
I suggest you take your own advice in future and try reading first next time - when I quoted this "Samsung: No Honeycomb for Galaxy Tab" it was in answer to msewidan who was talking about XDA ROMs. I know full well where the quote came from and I know full well that samfirmware has nothing to do officially with Samsung.

However, they clearly have links to official sources otherwise they wouldn't be able to get hold of the leaked ROMs now would they? They clearly have sources within Samsung - that doesn't mean that this is correct, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if it were.

This thread had no place here in the first place, and has now been derailed by ridiculous trolls trying to prove they are better than the rest of us who want what we want.

Secondly, no one should care what samfirmwares says or does, unless you are cooking a rom from one of their leaks... I personally wont ever flash anything from that site and will never believe a word a bunch of wannabe hackers have to say about what a big corporation is doing.

Glad I didn't hold out for the galaxy s2. Whilst I'm more than happy with 2.2 they definitely should be offering the 3.0 upgrade. Companies could really learn a lot from apples way of doing things. I for one am glad Google seem to be tightening control of android.

I'm no apple fanboy at all. But when you buy an apple product you get support for atleast 2-3 years and other companies should follow suit.

[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:

[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
Lots of blame slinging at Samsung over this, but if it turns out to be true, I'm willing to bet Google restrictions are the ultimate the reasons the Tab 7" doesn't get Honeycomb, not Samsung.
[Galaxy Tab General] spacemoose1:
Bah, who effing needs em.
[Galaxy Tab General] spacemoose1:
The point is, some people want 3.0 and some people like the challenge of making it happen. :)

Settling for the crumbs of bloatware that these large companies rarely even deliver on is never a win.
[Galaxy Tab General] spacemoose1:
And therefore.... no one else is allowed to want it either?
[Galaxy Tab General] Adapt0r:
Frankly, I would be upset myself, however I have a chance to use Motorola Xoom and that changed my attitude.

In my opinion it is good OS but for a large screen and higher resolution.

Why? Because you need more space for widgets and shortcuts and control buttons.

It seems to me that have the same on Galaxy Tab would make it very crowded.

Fundamentally, it is pretty much the same Android. Yes, there are many small details but those are tweaks.

I would agree with Google on that. Honeycomb is designed for larger tablets to get optimal experience. I am Ok with it.

Of course, as everywhere some people on Xoom forums are worrying about Motorola support and updates already. I have to say that a number applications on Honeycomb tend to FC, however, it is getting better.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bobby Buggs:
Why is it people think everything they buy is infinitely upgradable and then ***** when its not. You didnt realize the last device you bought had 6 moths of obsolescence built in when you got it
[Galaxy Tab General] TheDub:
You shouldnt have bought the device if your only reason to buy and keep it is the possibility of a software update to a operating system that at the time wasnt even out. Besides youre not missing that much except for a slightly more tablet optimized UI that frankly doesnt make that much of a difference on a 7 inch tablet. Its still Android no matter how you split it.

Besides, it will happen eventually thanks to devs like spacemoose.

[Galaxy Tab General] teacher1960:
The point is that most of us have bought an expensive piece of kit, and if it could be up there, competing with the best of them after 2 or even three years it would be really fantastic.

Case in point, I had an Athena x7510 with a 5 inch screen and I just knew that the biggest possible screen that can fit in a pocket was the way to go for me. I loved this very expensive piece of kit.

It came with Winmo 6.1 and with a batterylife that rapidly deteriorated so badly that it wouldn't last through my working day. With the help of a great new 6.5.5 rom from XDA made by Vico100 the battery suddenly lasted for three days!!!

This is not a small issue!

You can't expect the companies like Samsung and HTC to upgrade your kit too much, it's simple market economy, it's not in their interest, they want you to buy a new kit a year or so after the first one.

BTW how long do you think it will be before a new killer app comes with the dread words: "Only for Honeycomb"

It's definitely in our best interest to support the great devs at XDA for their wonderful work.
