[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pulverizer:
MMS spec is perfectly different.

Most of GSM carrier use OMA-MMS. but korea SKTelecom use theris own SK-MMS spec. Framework layer and application layer are PERFECTLY different.

If only application problem, you will replace another sms application (like handcent) but, framework problem is critical issue. If you fixed this problem, you will modify GS2 SMS/MMS framework. may be impossible.

And our Korea galaxy S1 can't buff from XDA. because not global model its korea localised model.

I think GS2 may be same..

So I recommend that buy your region's i9100 model or wait a SG2 later model.(like SG3?!)

So it will be unlikely that the korean version's software can be replaced with the international version then?

Hello,

I'm trying to fill a table useful to understand how much RAM is really available to the user in Android Phones.

Please try "Free Memory" by coconuts on the market or the "free" command in Terminal to let me know the total RAM of your device so that I can understand how much is reserved for hardware operations.

Please also say which ROM are you using.

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justsignbythex:
Is there such thing as a setting or application that will play some sort of notification when my headphones are plugged in?

I use my headphones when I commute, and 90% of the time, my phone is in vibrate mode, which means when I'm walking or something, I usually won't be able to feel the vibration.

However, I'd like some sort of notification feature (sound, etc.) that can play through my headphones.

Is there something out there that can enable this?

FYI, I'm running CM 7.0.2.1

Thanks! :cool:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dickie2007:
i've run loads today, and i found that the first one will always be a little lower, with subsequent tests being in the higher ranges... perhaps this is the ondemand govenor holding off initially but then kicking in as the benchmark adds load...?? i'll run some now...

Just a note, the FPS is capped at 60, attributing to lower results on some, especially for the Game Index on Smartbench...

i used the preinstalled task manager to clear the memory and close any open apps before i open each benchmark utility, after a single clean boot.

Yep, looks good. I purchased an el-cheapo adapter from Ebay to try out when I get my SGSII in a week or so (its been confirmed to work with the Xoom, so hopefully will work here too, the official ones aren't slated for release until June).

Be interesting to know whether it will do more than just USB drives - USB keyboard/mouse/gamepad support would be nice too!

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lxsnipexl:
hi guys ... im not sure what exactly is the problem so i will give as much detail as possible :

i just flashed to Cyanogen Mod 7.0.0 RC4 with radio 7.05. the problem started when after i want to upgrade to 7.0.2 of CM7. i tried going into recovery as per usual but instead of the terminal showing up normally, it appeared for a split second before dissappearing and shows me the triangle with ! sign ( when the terminal dissappeared , my windows popped up some unable to install qualcom drivers ... i don't know what drivers they are .. but i think its USB )

i tried to reboot by taking out the battery and putting back in, only to be stuck in a boot loop.

I am able to get out of the bootloop by connecting the usb cable and either going recovery ( where it wont even show the triangle with ! sign , it will just power on normally , loading CM7 ) or going to "clear storage" and choose "no" while usb is connected , it will reboot and start loading CM7 as per normal.

so after it loads CM7 RC4 normally ... i tried going into my sdcard to re-place the 7.0.2 zip ROM but i cant even connect to my sdcard via USB ... in settings it showed "Unavaliable" and there is an erase option but when i tried to use it ... it only shows "SD card removed"

i know this is a rather complex problem but i would be greatly thankful if you can help me out. Thank you guys so much!

To summarise :

Bootlooping unless connected via USB and going into recovery / choosing no when asked whether to clear storage

Unable to access my SD card when successfully booted up

if it helps* ( i think i wiped ONLY the dalvic cache ( no cache/factory format ) before the recovery terminal dissappeared ) , treat this info as volatile ... i can't remeber if this statement is true or not.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonesy:
Sound slike sd card failure...WHY?

If your using an ext partition some apps or cache are there,therefore failure of sd can make a bootloop..

Plus not booting into recovery properly could mean it cant use the update.zip to boot recovery..

Try another sdCARD see if that works,ive killed 2 cards and had similar problems

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DozeBeatS:
Had my Hero for a little over a year now. Been rooted for most of that time. Currently running Aosp from 02-10-11. I also have 2.6.29.6 Aosp Kernel. Not sure if any other info needed. I have normal coverage where I live and mostly everywhere else except where I work. I drop calls all the time, lose data, etc. I called Sprint and was told its my Hero, not the network. They said they have a new tool that tells them what is causing the problem, so its def my phone. I also have terrible battery life, and my phone is laggy as hell. I just want to know what my best option would be. Should I go to the Sprint store and have them replace my phone? Should I start from scratch (rooting wise) and take it from there? Or should I just wait for the Evo 3D to come out and suck it up? Just not sure which road to take. Any help is GREATLY appreciated. And sorry if this has been asked previously, I did some searches and couldnt find much info.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oohaylima:
To see if it's on your end, do a fresh install of your favorite ROM on its latest release. Preferable latest aosp or cyanogen stable. If it's still laggy, hardware. If not, then your hero is good. For the network, after you install a ROM, run a speed test. Then update to the latest prl. Run again. If it gets better, than great. If not, then proceed to update a Verizon prl. If good, than it's not your hardware. If it is, think about getting a replacement.

[Nook Color Android Development] ad720:
No, I'm rooted. The issue was that I was unable to boot into clockwork after flashing the 1.2 zip that was supposed to keep clockwork intact. Since I hadn't flashed the root file yet I could install Rom Manager and flash Clockwork that way.

I just used a clockwork bootable microSD with the new Auto-nooter (and with the files from the OP on it) and flashed everything from there until I was rooted and could install ROM Manager. Worked fine and I'm dual booting Phiremod and rooted nook 1.2.

[Nook Color Android Development] jm20:
can't get phreakmod to boot, just loops

First off, thanks for the guide. It was a great help but I failed to make a backup of my rooted stock ROM and had to start all over again when I got to the end and had to restore the data only :mad:

Also I couldn't boot back into clockwork after loading 1.2. Even the 8 reboot method had no effect on my nook. I did some reading and came to the same conclusion as ad720 at about 1am last night and finally got it booting but couldn't get phreakmod version 6.1 to load. It just loops on the phreakmod boot screen. I was able to get the v4 of honeycomb and my stock rooted ROM to boot but no other ROMs seem to work.

I do have another question though. How do I know which ROM I am backing up with clockwork, or does it back up both ROMS as a dual boot backup?

Also, I want to keep my stock rooted nook for magazines and books but run phreakmod or maybe a newer ROM, do I have to go through the entire process again or can I just load a new ROM without screwing up my stock ROM?

Lastly, somehow mine ended up backwards, if I hold the "n" I get honeycomb, if I do nothing I get stock, which is fine at least it works, but I am not sure how it got reversed, I think I must have reversed a step when phreakmod wouldn't work and I had to redo it with honeycomb.

Normally I'd just keep messing with it until I got it figured out but I have already wasted well over 12hrs getting to this point so I have decided to breakdown and ask for assistance.

Any help or insight would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance :)
[Nook Color Android Development] pndo1:
If you are fine with what you have, then you are ok. If you want to get CyanogenMod 7 or Phriemod with stock on a dual boot, then you will have to follow the guide again. I suggest you erase data, and system and then flash Phriemod. The backup problem is probably because you have an old version of Clockwork Mod Recovery, so try updating it via Rom Manager (Downloadable from the link in the op or from the Market). To update, just launch the app and click Flash ClockworkMod Recovery, then choose Nook Color, not Nook Color (old). Then, again from Rom Manager, tap "Reboot into Recovery" and then tap ok. After it reboots into ClockworkMod, then try your backup. Post if this works! If it does, I will put it in the op.

working on it

Thanks for the quick reply. I have updated CWM to 3.0.2.8 that didn't help.

I reinstalled phiremod and it still just looped. I downloaded ver. 6.0 and tried that and it still looped.

I then wiped and started again this time with phiremod first and I'm sitting here watching it loop. Strange.

I'll keep trying different things and hopefully with report back with what worked for me.

thanks for the input.

[Nook Color Android Development] Shortyred:

[Nook Color Android Development] indagroove:
Did you just wipe or did you format system, data, and cache?
[Nook Color Android Development] jm20:
wiped everything

I wiped everything and started again. This time with phiremod v 6.1 first. It booted!!!!

I went back into clockwork and made a backup.

For some reason my clockwork reverted back to 3.0.1.0 but whatever it is working fine.

Next I loaded the stock 1.2img the one that says keep CWM.

I restored the /data from my phiremod backup.

Rebooted and phiremod is gone as was my dual boot partition and stock nook is all I have left.

Guess you can't do it in this order. :(

Indagroove if you have time and could post a brief list of the steps you took that would be great.

I made it to step 9.5. The zip starts the flash. Makes it to Format secondary boot /system partition and gives the error: Error in /sdcard/Roms/DualBoot/Prep-dualboot-0.1.zip.

I have not dual booted before. 3 questions please.

1. Should the prep-dualboot-0.1.zip be 250 kb? I downloaded it twice with the same result.

2. I was unable to install Rom Manager in 1.2 even after running manualnooter-4-4-27. I'm guessing that I am not fully rooted so does the have an affect? I didn't think so. I just booted into it via failed attempts

3. I want to dual boot CM7 and have always run it through the internal memory. Does it need to be installed on the SD Card instead?

I'm not sure what else I am missing. Thank you for this guide and hopefully there is a simple answer that I am missing.

Edit: user error. Make sure you clean out the internal 5 gb first. That's what broke me.

I really have no idea how to backup the SDCard through ClockworkMod. Sorry!

@ch99tj

1. You found out the answer on your own.

2. You should flash HamNCheese's root package or opening up Nook Color Tools and unchecking and checking the checkbox at the top of the app.

3. The guide does not require you to have CyanogenMod on the SDCard, and the guide doesn't put it on the SDCard.

Thank You! I got everything running last night. I'm pretty sure it would have gone flawless if I didn't have most of the 5GB filled with movies. Now my problem is that I skipped the initial registration on first 1.2 boot and can't figure out how to go back and register it now. I tried a factory reset through 1.2 but that booted into clockworkmod and instead cleared the cm7 data. Is there another way to reset just 1.2?
[Nook Color Android Development] pndo1:
If you reset it through the Settings app, then I really don't know of any way that can erase data. Also in the op I mentioned only skip the setup process if you don't have WiFi at home that you can connect to. You will probably have to do the whole process over again. Sorry! I really don't know how you could do this. :(

Maybe @indagroove has an idea, he did the whole process with a simpler method, (that I haven't tried) and he seems to be supporting my guide.

[Nook Color Android Development] jm20:
started over again... Finally Success!!

Thanks to everyone who posted with feedback, ideas, and their results.

I read all the posts and gave it another shot and it finally worked.

Here is what finally worked for me:

Updated my CWM to 3.0.2.8 somewhere along the way with my failures.

Made a CWM bootable SD card from the instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=987735

Loaded all the stock nook 1.2 keep cwm file, the nook root file 1.1a from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1051235 the dual prep file, eclair to dual boot file, and phiremod ROM version 6 (not version 6.1 which has wireless issues).

I wiped my nook.

Booted to CWM via SD card and loaded and rooted the 1.2 stock image.

Booted into stock, signed in to B&N, opened internet and installed rom manager (had to email the file to myself and install it from my email download).

Used rom manager to made a backup of my newly rooted stock image.

At this point I removed my CWM bootable SD card and inserted another SD card that contained the files below.

Rebooted to make sure everything was still working.

Booted into CWM and followed the steps below that indagroove posted.

THANK YOU INDAGROOVE!!

Below is from indagroove's post with a few minor adjustments for my setup:

3. Flash the prep-dualboot-0.1.zip. Then flash the eclair-to-dual-boot-flashable-v0.2.zip rom. Once that's done go into Mounts and Storage,then select Format /System, and select yes, then format Data, and also Cache.

4. Flash the custom ROM of your choice. I choose phiremod v6.0

5. Rebooted.

6. Reboot and hold down "n" button to boot into Stock or alternate partition.

7. Enjoy your nook color dual boot tablet. Three long nights of trial and error and lots of reading posts and learning but it finally works!!!!! :)

Thanks to all the devs and the people on here who help out. The altruism is awesome.

jm20, so does this leave stock 1.2 on your Nook, and Phiremod as the second OS? What happens when you have to update one or the other? Do you start from scratch or is there a way to individually update a ROM? Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] AidenM:
Other way around.

No, stock is the "second OS" and the main one is your custom rom.
