[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma0456:
The best

I've loaded many of the most popular roms and I would have to say that overall I think Calkulin's ROM+Clemsyn's Kernel combo is the fastest and cleanest one. Everything I use runs well and I have no complaints. That said, Vegan 5 and TNT Lite 4.4 also run very well but for me Calkulin is king.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djapatos:
VEGAns

I use VEGAn 5.1 and it was so fast that i decided never to switch ROM anymore... until yesterday when they came up with the new VEGAn Ginger edition, which is as fast or even faster. Not to mention the sweet new design:)

I switched to that, and again said i will never switch again :D

So i suggest go with VEGAn... u won't be disappointed
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arveeee:
I have VeGAN Tab 5.1.1...better than the new Vegan Gingerbread update. No problems at all.

Anything Free for unrooted phones ?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] xriderx66:
You probably can't do it for non-rooted phones.

bcz there's 2 ways i know how

1) add free

2) root explorer and manually edit hosts.

both require root.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] oka1:
Yup all the ones I know require rooting as well......... root the phone
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] zimphishmonger:
Flash this file, rooted or not. Bingo! :D

EDIT: by that, I mean throw the attached ClockworkMOD Recovery update.zip on the phone.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jamesd86:
A revert flashable would be good for people that do that and dont want to root.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] domtru:
Thanks. I couldn't remember the name of the app. Thanks!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] zimphishmonger:
that doesnt root, its just a recovery that you can boot into WITHOUT rooting :)

Hello, does anyone know where I can get a copy of the Nero v5 rom? I can't seem to find it anywhere. The newer Bionix version doesn't work that well on my phone. Thanks.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shortbus-Driver:
You can get it from the archives section at team whiskey's website.

Although i cant understand why you would want an outdated test rom to the official Bionix release.

ive followed tw since before nero and am currently on Bionix 1.3.1 and all is good,very stable.

Price is lol

Not worth it
[LG Optimus 2x] ludow:
This product will be in stock (in black) on Thursday 28 April, 2011.

Quality product indeed. Worth of every penny. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] c19932:
Looks nice, maybe worth the price, but not very affordable by young casual phone users

Thanks for sharing
[LG Optimus 2x] Arawac:
yeah someone else posted sometime ago that they would come with a casing, looks very nice to me, and I enjoy quality... but yes tastes differ ;)

p.s. 45 euros is not that bad ... I think for a gadget I am going to use for at least 2 years ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] steveinstreatham:
Cheaper from some of the mobile warehouses (£30 - 33euros)

This is the only flip leather case I can find that does not have a magnetic snap closure

which caused havoc on my HTC Hero - screwed compass and eventually touch screen.

But I agree - its a bit pricey

[Xperia Arc General] Gavilaaar:
I was wondering if it is possible to use the FM chip in the phone and use it as an FM transmitter (like the n97)

I'm interested in hearing your thoughts.
[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
Basically no.

For a start, you'd need a chipset capable of transmitting via FM as well as receiving. Just because you can do one, it doesn't mean you can do the other.

Even if the chipset is capable, for it then to work, it'd need to have the necessary drivers installed, which is maybe doable.

It'd also then need an antenna attached to the transmission pin-out on the chipset, which is extremely unlikely to be in place.

So technically it might be possible but in reality it's not - unless SE just happen to have built a fully-functional FM transmitter into the Arc and just forgotten to activate it...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbm21:
Hey i flashed i9000 2.3 bootloaders to fix the recovery and weird screen issue but now i wanna go back... Does anyone know of a firmware that includes the vibrant bootloaders?

thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inconceeeivable:
Think stock 2.2 updates the secondary bootloader...pretty sure the sbl.bin or whatever is in the 2.2 odin images. Guess this depends on which ROM you're going to be using?

No idea on the other.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbm21:
I want to try the aosp rom in the i9k section and it says you cant get into download mode using reboot download command and because i flashed the i9k bootloaders thats the only way i can get into download mode...

Ill flash the sbl, hopefully it will help me get into download using the volume keys
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
U arent suppose to flah a boot loader u will brick ur phone
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
damn dude, be ready to say goodbye to your phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbm21:
Lol ok i guess i wont... Im glad i didnt brick it when i flashed the i9k bootloaders...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sdobron:
It doesn't brick your phone, just the only thing that can brick it in the event of a bad flash.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbm21:
Thanks for the info i dont think ill flash them anyway just in case
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
were you able to go back to stock?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbm21:
i can go back to stock firmware without reflashing bootloaders and im preaty sure any rom will work with the i9k bootloaders i just wanted the vibrant ones to try out an aosp rom on the i9k forum but it says you can only get into download mode with 3 buttons so thats why i wanted to change bootloaders

in short i have not gone back to stock bootloaders

Edit: could somone link me to that thread from a while back that fixed hardware locked vibrants?

Hey guys,

I just wanted my first post to be a big thank you to all of you guys on the forums. I've been reading through the forums ever since i got my sgs a few weeks ago and i've found so much useful tips and information here. Thanks to all the people who have the patience to answer other peoples questions and problems, especially when they do it time and time again as the questions are asked more than once! Thanks to all the devs for the opportunity to enjoy the full capabilities of my phone! I am on Darky 9.3 right now (which is great) and considering very soon to make the big leap to CM7. My curiousity in the field had grown thanks to all of you, and i truly hope that in the future i will also be able to make my own contributions to the android community and the SGS community specifically.

My deepest gratitude to this forum and all its members!!

Sent. Period.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rat2000:

Wouldn't it be great to have a lockscreen like that? Pretty impressive stuff.
[HTC Sensation] dpwhitty11:
I think that lockscreen is ugly.
[HTC Sensation] Vince556:
I really like HTC phones and that one looks impressive. But they all look good in commercials.
[HTC Sensation] Dhessler5:
Very impressive looking, the lock screen looks strange. I have no idea what you would have to do to unlock it? It it a rotary?
[HTC Sensation] k_nivesout:
Is that circular thing the lockscreen? The phone itself looks pretty nice though.
[HTC Sensation] ctinsley:
That lock screen is awesome check out the hands on from engadget

Basically they have enabled live widgets on the lock screen and it lets your drag your preferred icon into the lock circle and it opens that app immediately. I think it's very similar to widget locker.
[HTC Aria General] AriaUSer_:
My phone died and when I plug it in and it goes into clockworkmod I hit reboot system now. Then it will start to boot, show my main screen and bang it bootloops, I tried doing a full reset, installed a different CM7 rom and it still does it. Can you guys give me some advice? I have no idea what would've happened.
[HTC Aria General] AriaUSer_:
can you guys plz help I really need my phone
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
Since you are dead in the water you might as well try these steps:

1. Format the system, data & cache partitions of your device. This is done from CWM using the Partitions menu.

2. Perform a factory reset.

3. Flash CyanogenMod.
[HTC Aria General] AriaUSer_:
Ok to anyone that has a problem like this, this is how I fixed it.

1) Plug in usb charger to your computer, go on to recovery and mount to usb storage.

2) Then go onto here and download a rom (I downloaded attn1's liberated rom)

3) Then factory reset

4) Reboot and then reinstall your CM7 rom and put in gapps.

This is what I did and somehow it worked, no idea why it didn't do anything when I just factory resetted and rebooted the phone, but installing any other rom and then install the CM7 rom it works.

Hope this helped!
[Epic 4G Accessories] Mechachu:
Hello! I'm looking for a way to boost my signal. I've noticed that when I have under 3 bars (and even if it bounces up to 3 and back down) my battery drains quicker than it can charge. At work as long as I have 3+ it will charge faster but if I'm at a different spot and its under 3 it drains. Also, it heats up (usually hangs out around 98.6 degrees but sometimes it'll go 105+). My main reason for wanting a boost at home is because I tether to play games when my sisters hog the house connection. So I'm looking for a cheap way to boost my signal. Small repeater sort of thing or something. To my understanding the little spots under the cover allow you to plug in external antennas, so where can I find everything for that? (And yes I saw that people can't get signal back after)

THANK YOU :D
[Epic 4G Accessories] nuclear_android:
We used to live in an AT&T dead spot (yeah, yeah, who doesn't?) and ended up putting a powered wireless repeater in the house with an external antenna on the roof. I believe the manufacturer was Digital Antenna. They're not cheap, but the wired versions (if you can live with that) are a bit cheaper.
[Epic 4G Accessories] scancel:
As long as you have high speed internet at home get an Airave. It puts up a tower in your house and processes everything over your home internet connection. 5 bucks a month i believe.

http://support.sprint.com/support/device/Sprint/AIRAVE_by_Sprint-dvc1230001prd/?id16=airave

Problem solved.
[Epic 4G Accessories] Mechachu:
I thought about airwave but people ten to not pay the internet from time to time xD and does the signal crap out if people use the internet? Its only a 768 connection (country ftl) and people tend to netflix and cam -_-
[Epic 4G Accessories] insanity213:
The airrave uses your internet connection for 3G data and voice calls. If your internet is slow to begin with and ppl are hammering it all day long the airrave won't work well for you. Also, it doesn't hand calls off to the real cell network, so if you're on the phone and you leave your house the call will drop. If you have good signal outside and bad signal inside, one of those repeaters is the way to go - but it ain't cheap.
[Epic 4G Accessories] Mechachu:
Dang ok. What about something like the Wilson Magnet Mount Cellular Antenna at Radioshack? (Its on the site. Id link it but you need 8+ posts >.<)
[Epic 4G Accessories] stevesprivateaccount:
I'd just limit your sisters ip address/mac address with a QOS policy, so that she can't hog all the bandwidth. (would be done at your router)

I've heard and seen on this board some nasty results from connecting external antennas to the connection point behind the battery cover. Do a search in the forums to see, I can't remember exactly off the top of my head.
[Epic 4G Accessories] Mechachu:
Ya I only saw a couple people mention problems and it seemed to be things that they had only heard
[Epic 4G Accessories] krackers:
Whatever you do DO NOT CONNECT an EXTERNAL ANTENNA to the CONNECTION POINT.

So far, everyone on this forum who has tried so with a Galaxy S has ended up with some permanent baseband (or whatever is responsible for the gsm/cdma part) corruption. What ended up happening was that the internal antenna would turn off. In some cases it meant that they could only call with the external antenna plugged in, and in other cases is meant that neither the external or internal antenna would work. (note: This has happened only on captivate and vibrant so far, so I am not sure what will happen on CDMA but.... Better safe than sorry right!?).

oh and sorry for the large font.... It catches your eye... ~_~
[Epic 4G Accessories] Masterface7:
lol I did that when i got my first smart phone, the htc touch. Thankfully back in those days sprint would fix any problem or give you a new phone no questions asked for 55 dollars. ( I used to find inventive ways to break my phone. Like the mentioned external antenna, or a homemade battery back)
[Epic 4G Accessories] LunaticWolf:
I'm interested in a solution to this as well, preferably something that doesnt have a monthly fee attached.

In my basement, I get about 1-2 bars of service, and sometimes nothing at all. Is very frustrating to receive texts up to an hour late.

I saw dates of April 19 being mentioned in various places, but more likely in other forums. None of the etailers like amazon have anything on it either, although newegg lists the 32GB version but no release date or price. Japan situation is really bad though so that could be reason of no word from asus. If there really is a big delay and it goes into May I might just wait and see what the samsung 10.1 situation is as thats meant to be released June 6 or 9.
