[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
im using a slightly different framework to theme due to issues...ill have to find a work around for the android keyboard
[Samsung Mesmerize] wcouri:
You're the man, I love these themes!
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
Updated to the newest version of Heinz_57!!!!!
[Samsung Mesmerize] detroyt:
Woo-hoo I've been waiting for this thanks tator
[Samsung Mesmerize] detroyt:
well I installed this updated theme after i flashed back to stock, rooted, and installed heinz 57 1.2 again this morning and it loads up then just goes into a constant bootloop, it just makes the dreaded double vibrate, vibrate as if something were force closing but nothing pops up,
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
ill get more testing done...shouldnt be any problems though
[Samsung Mesmerize] detroyt:
Thanks, I'm off work for 5 days let me know if there is anything i could to do help I'm sure I'll get bored. I'm not the most advanced user but I can try or learn something if needed. Your ultimate honeycomb port works great tho so I'm rockin that for now but the boot animation isnt there from before no biggie. I'll try again tonight I may even do a full factory wipe to see if that fixes things.

ok tator i think you might be right, i did a factory wipe went from ee19 stock heinz 57, i no longer am getting forced closes but it is randonly rebbooting even with out the theme installed
[Samsung Mesmerize] Daemontrain:
I just flashed this and it bootlooped on me as well, right when it started media scanning. I'm on Heinz v1.3.
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
i know the problem...this was ported for 1.2 heinz...i was unaware of a 1.3....i think imma hurt gas...lmao...will fix soon
[Samsung Mesmerize] Daemontrain:
D'oh lol thanks tator :)

[Samsung Mesmerize] KushMcDieselson:
This theme is awesome. Well except for the boot loop after it scans the media card lol. I am on Heinz 57 1.2, held off on the 1.3 update after seeing the previous post about that causing the problem, but still happens for me. Oh well on to the next theme lol.

Also, been lurking for awhile now, but you are the man Baked Tator for all your theme ports.
[Epic 4G General] tbob18:
Reception on my Epic seems to be a quite a bit worse than my old Centro.

Sitting in the same exact spot my Centro gets -81db to -86db while the epic varies from -91db to -95db.

I'd think that the Epic would have much better signal since it is a premium phone and the Centro was a low-end device.

I'm using Syndicate 1.1.0 and Twilight 1.1.0.

Any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Older phones tend to have stronger signals, they didn't focus on things like getting the phone as thin as possible while cramming as much in there as they can so they generally have better antenna placements. A difference of 10db shouldn't be significant enough to cause any issues.
[Epic 4G General] tbob18:
That's a bit disappointing. I tend to notice quite a bit 3g-less (or very slow) areas than I did with my old phone, have not really had any major issues with voice though.
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
UPDATE : Re-ported this theme to work with UGB ROM EC09, only thing not themed it the dropdown notification seeing as its a ***** to get themed...gotta love xml baby!!! will be working on fixing this issue

this is a very very nice looking theme. Except for the keyboard. Thats a little loud. But it fits with the rest of the theme nice work!
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
ty sir...reminds me to give credit to the guy who made that keyboard....thanks
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
Will be uploading my final version of this very soon...fixed the color of the day on the puzzle lock screen...no longer blue for this theme...thanks for this goes to bd and nitsuj17
[Samsung Mesmerize] Dikvega:
Tator, does this work for the showcase?
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
it wont work with the 7 lock screen version...i think im goin to have to re upload a newer version...gimme till tonight sometime and ill have it fixed for you....if you using the 6 lock screen version, all you have to do is delete the .jar files in the system/framework folder and it will work fine, or so i think
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
theme has been updated to work with the 5/3/11 version of The Heiinz_57 ROM and uses edify scripting and works with CWM 3

[Samsung Mesmerize] phatboy5015:
Is there anyway you could change the color of the text on some of the menus when you hit "more"?

Example: open up Gmail, press menu, then more. That text is black and extremely hard to see unless the background is completely white. Other than that, this theme is perfect!
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
the text in anyone of the menus or anything in this them is done the exact way the creator of the theme made it...i used his xml files to do this...and plus i have absolutely no idea where this would be located in the xml, this looks like some deep stuff...if i get an update from jumba for this theme that fixes it, then id be able to do it...but its the same way on my phone
[Samsung Mesmerize] das1116:
Love the theme, only problem I've had is that in landscape mode the keyboard doesn't fit great on the screen. But I'm not complaining! Great job to you guys, thanks for making our phones so much more fun than those other ones!
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
its a glitch with the swype keyboard i used in this theme...im sure the maker of the keyboard knows about it

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nrhk:
My phone got waterlogged at the beach, the removable microSD works fine right now so I have hope that I might possibly be able to recover the internal memory as well.

Basically since the phone's dead the only way I can get this data is if the Touch Pro 2 uses an microsd card for its internal memory so I can disassemble the phone and get to it. I'm not familiar with the internal workings so I was wondering if someone here can confirm or deny the existence of this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] computermilk:
How do we do the master reset when the phone is turned off with the volume and power key to make it go to the selection screen?

I want to be able to wipe it 100% so all the apps are gone.

I think i'm doing it but when I run through the setup my apps that i installed are STILL there, so i don't think it's doing a full wipe...

[Galaxy S II General] viper134:
Hi, I'm thinking of teaching English in South Korea. I'd be going in maybe 4 or 5 months and was wondering if it is worth it to get the Galaxy S2 or not. I will need to get a laptop but my family might be helping me out with that. I will want to travel to Japan, China, maybe some other countries. I know it uses a SIM card but will it work in these countries as well? Do you think it is worth it? I'll be there for a year. Maybe I should get a cheap phone and maybe get a tablet instead. Any advice would be great.

Is it any kind of substitute for a Camera?

P.S. I would be selling my current Samsung Epic from Sprint to cover a good portion of the cost.
[Galaxy S II General] Pulverizer:
Hello.

I'm korean and please refer my reply.

If you will resident(living) in south korea, you will purchased korea galaxy s2 from SKTelecom or KoreaTelecom contract.

But , in short stay and many country traveling and return to your country to use, i recommend buy the EU galaxy S2.
[Galaxy S II General] viper134:
Any more advise?
[Galaxy S II General] marthyaya:
I beg to differ!!

The con's you mentioned here aren't much of a problem. Most of the world still uses triband gsm and having a quad band won't do much of good and how many of us really uses mms when we are using emailing or video calling!!

If you see the pro's they is NFC which is gonna be must feature in all smart mobile in future. Next gen samsung mobile is having NFC in all the models. So isn't it cool to have right now than later? well there are lot of apps in android for fm, so having a native fm on mobile is pointless. And DMB is an extra asset too. last but not the least bloatware can be removed in many ways as like rooting :)

So what do you think guys?

[G2 and Desire Z General] eunkipark92:
I trade my phones alot on craigslist and get replacements from tmobile to get newcondition phone(started it recently) .. yes i know its wrong..

And i want to stop it.

I went through alot of phones in like 6month

Samsung Highlight.. ****ty phone

Iphone 3gs

Samsung vibrant (first android phone)

G2 (after i traded it perm root was available -. -)

Nexus one

Mytouch 4g replaced it 4 times due to washed out screen.

Back to vibrant

Back to g2 and now i want to go back to mytouch 4g..

Replaced g2 2 times to get the good one

Please dont flame me saying i have problem ialready know i have problem.. i just like to try new things

I want to stop it lol please tell me good things about g2 and bad things about mytouch 4g so i dont end up trading again

Like i said i already know i have problem just dont flame me
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nospin:
Yes you do.

They are both very close to the same phone. The g2 has a hardware keyboard, the mytouch cpu is clocked at 1ghz. That's pretty much it. It's not a matter of which is better, just what you prefer (that's the case with most phones). If you really can't stop then please see somebody.

Sent from my T-Mobile G2
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
bahahaha who cares if you trade phones?? who doesn't like switchin it up? i know i do. i just dont have the time. plus trading phones is much easier than seling and buying or just buying new ones all the time.. although you would just be able to swtich between your own phones..

and if your rooted you can just OC your g2. which i do to 1ghz.. i see no need for anything faster than that. unless its charging, i have it set to 1.2, just cause i usually charge it while i game. :D

ff camera is nice on the mytouch. gf has one. makes me sad i don't since i cant video chat unless i sit infront of mirror. but it works. :)

personally id take a g2.. duh. ffc doens't matter THAT much to me. and i text ALOT, main priority on a phone.. even thou i do use the on screen keyboard alot. my whole thought when deciding to wait for the mytouch 4g and getting the g2 was this.. if i am going to pay x amount for a phone.. i want the options of a physical keyboard if i wanna use one... and i love the look of it.

comes down to really, want a keyboard or a ffc? other than there there really not THAT different. all though i would take off the mytouch ui tmobile has on it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] eunkipark92:
this helped me lol im keeping g2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
Good choice. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] tackleberry:
Mt4g for more ram and better screen. G2 for hardware keyboard. Tough choice but I prefer the G2.

Nonsense!
[G2 and Desire Z General] creativedevil:
MT4G : Plasticky feel, poor build compare to G2, no gorilla glass display, same resolution and similar screen size as G2, no keyboard, + point to a Front Facing Camera

G2 : Rock Solid Build, physical keyboard, superior performance with slower and similar processor(which can be oc'ed to 1.6 GHz), a bit bulky(good on its part as you know when your phone is not in your pocket vs. some lightweight phone where vibration isn't even felt), no front facing camera - Meh...

They both go neck to neck if we compare specs, as they both have similar hardware but personally i will stick to my G2 as it feels much better in my hand.
[G2 and Desire Z General] eunkipark92:
Mytouch 4g does not feel plasticky though. It feel great in hand.

-1 for not having a gorilla glass though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
whoever said the g2 had gorilla glass??? can anyone actually find a source that proves this.. not just a "i heard" or saw it on yourtube..

jc cause i might take off my screen cover. =]

and the mytouch is a good build quality i think.. all htc phones are imho.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ptesmoke:
Its on the gorilla glass website....can't be more obvious

Says mt4g is gorilla glass too... hmm...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Gigamaster89:
Htc was never listed under that site before but it looks like they recently added it... along with every Htc phone ever made. I doubt phones like the wrist and g1 have gg.

Also, how do you manage to exchange and craigslist phone?

[G2 and Desire Z General] creativedevil:
I didn't mean any disrespect, it was just my opinion. I have used N1 and G2, compared to both of them only one phone feels superior to me and that was iPhone 4.

I have Atrix and NS, both of them can't come even closer to the feeling you get holding the N1 and G2 in your hand.

Just personally like that sturdyness so much that MT4G makes me feel something is missing.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
Must be ghetto gorilla glass cause it does not feel anything like what I have always known be gorilla glass as in the Galaxy S line. Feel a vibrant screen then feel ours!
[G2 and Desire Z General] eunkipark92:
I have to agree the gorilla glass on vibrant feels much better. When I first got g2 I thought it was plastic.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
Took the screencover off and feels great to me.. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] xxqbnxx:
About to do the same, but i have the anti glare screen protector. i wonder if I'm going to miss it. Has anyone removed an anti glare screen protector and regret it?
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
I had one.. then got an invisishield.. then took that off... screen feels nice. :) IMHO.. smooth.. lil slippery compared to an invisishield, but nicer.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xxqbnxx:
so no problems with scratches ? i treat my phone kinda rough.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Been having my phone for over 2 month after my last replacement and I don't have a single scratch. Aha but I take care of it
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
You went through that many phones in 6 month? So you got a 3 replacement then get a diffrent phone? Aha...
[G2 and Desire Z General] danow11:
I have to sawy, before my g2 was sporting a screen protector there were many times I thought the screen would for sure have a scratch, and then it would wipe off and be fine.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ericc191:
I never used screen protectors or protective cases.. but I also never drop my phone ;)

Oh, and I was recently trying to decide between these two phones for my N1 replacement. (No gaming with ghetto multi-touch). I have a couple problems with the MT4G.. First of all, it looks like ass. Second of all, I think the MT4G button ruins the phone. Lastly, I wanted a keyboard. I also don't think the screen looks any better than the G2's.

I only ever had one problem with the G2.. that jacked up hinge. A new spring and tools are in route to my house. :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] eunkipark92:
Lol yes that's exactly right. Even with good screen mytouch 4g I still had other issues like light leak.which was bothering me quite a bit when I'm using the phone in dark condition. And front facing camera was off centered. But now I'm quite happy with my g2 now.
[G2 and Desire Z General] eunkipark92:
It would have been much better if they used capacitive buttons like g2 but instead they went on with ugly physical buttons that makes squeaky sound when clicked(in some of em) and major light leaks...it looks hella ugly when you use it in dark condition
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
I baby my phone... never face down, never anything in my left pocket, where I keep it. :) no scratches this far, only been a free days...
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Hey so the Mytouch isn't that good? The main reason I got the G2 is because I use to love my G1.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
I would take a mytouch4g.. not over a G2.. but there's plenty of phones I wouldn't take over my G2... the mytouch is a great phone if you don't mind espresso.. id have it rooted runing miui thou personally. :) just like my G2

I've just seen a video on Youtube where a user has rooted his SGS II using Gingerbreak available here at XDA.

Am wondering if anyone has been brave enough to try it with their retail unit??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cybermessiah:

... Seeing as this is the make or break in my decision to buy.:D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJGibbon:
Didn't work for me, sadly :-(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dameon87:
Given the latest attempts to secure root by Samsung, it may prove to be a task. The Indulge required that su be recompiled, and Superuser.apk be modified.

The above changes did not work on the ED12 leak of Gingerbread for the Samsung Epic4G.

This is probably going to be quite annoying.

Also note that the adb exploit we have been using has been patched in GB, so rageagainstthecage is not going to work at all.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuboidRC:
I thought the bootloader was unlocked in the SGS2?

Gingerbreak 1.2 did not work on my retail unit. It sat at the "this may take a few minutes" screen indefinitely.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Epedemic:
Bootloader being unlocked/locked has nothing to do with running an exploit to obtain root within the actual system...

But yeah, Gingerbreak does not work either on my SGS2... Neither the apk or the manual version via adb...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuboidRC:
My comment was in reply to Dameon87 saying "Given the latest attempts to secure root by Samsung, it may prove to be a task." - is this not referring to the bootloader being locked? I'm a bit hazy on the technical side of this so perhaps I'm way off.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dameon87:
No, all reports say the bootloader is unlocked. Samsung also confirmed they would not lock bootloaders unless it was requested by google.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
Root is the equivalent of "Administrator" privileges in windows. Android uses Linux, in linux one of the first things you learn in the terminal is how to gain root priviliges. You either temporarily use root with "sudo [command]" or you permanently take root through "su --".

Once we gain root, we can do anything on the phone since the bootloader is unlocked.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuboidRC:
I know what root is but I don't know what a boot loader is and the significance of it being locked. Is it like BIOS?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chainfire:
Look, I don't have an SGS2 yet, nor do I have a flashable firmware in hand.

If I (or another hacker) can get my grubby little hands on an original flashable zImage from a retail device (sooner or later), AND I can figure out how to dump and fix the contents (I did it for SGS and SGT, so I hope I will again have success), it is possible to patch the zImage to include su and Superuser.apk. This will then be flashable with ODIN.

This is exactly why and how CF-Root on both SGS and SGT works. If the bootloaders are indeed unlocked, this shouldn't be all that difficult to do. I will hopefully be able to do it, I don't doubt Supercurio will be able to, and probably at least 50 others here on XDA know at least the basics for how to do this.

I'm betting (I ordered 2 SGS2's, but I won't get them 'til end of May) on this to be true and work. You'll just have to be patient a little until some of us devs get our hands on the device and some flashable firmwares.

I would be _really_really_ surprised if this isn't rooted within the next 4 weeks, using this or another method.

EDIT: Note that rooting has little to do with the bootloaders. The bootloaders generally decide if you can flash a custom kernel (the above method - cannot be done on protected bootloaders). NAND-lock or S-ON means that the /system is protected and cannot be modified. Root means you gain superuser priviliges, which can be accomplished in various ways, either with or without a locked bootloaders. It's damned difficult to do with NAND-lock though :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
Boot loader is code that is executed before any operating system starts to run. It reads data stored in ROM and starts to load it into RAM so that your CPU can execute the code.

By having the boot loader unlocked, we can change what is executed at boot.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuboidRC:
Thanks.

S-On is a *****, I had that on my HTC Desire. I installed Cyanogen Mod with it still on, it was only when I tried to do things like change the host file that I ran into problems. I eventually had boot my PC from a boot CD and run some special software, goodness knows why it needed a boot CD! I got there in the end.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chainfire:
It's not rooted yet (but with luck in 10 minutes or so it will be). We did flash an unsigned kernel, and THAT worked, which confirms UNLOCKED bootloaders.
