[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintermute000:
some people want root regardless as they like to tinker.

also enables useful features like

titanium backup / Clock recovery so you can easily backup/clone your phone state

overclock (speed) / undervolt (battery)

CIFs for mounting windows shares or presenting itself as a windows share (very useful esp over wifi, look ma no cables)

get rid of touchwiz and other preinstalled stuff (I haven't used touchwiz 4 but I like stock android and I'm a speed freak)

I never rooted/custom ROMed my nexus one (as I love stock android) but it was the first thing I did to my galaxy tab and will be the first on my list with any non stock android phone
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peachpuff:
There's a chance it might get cm7 but it'll require a lot of work, the current sgs has cm7 but its still in alpha stage since samsung doesn't release the source for its proprietary drivers, everything has to be made from scratch(ie. time consuming). I don't think anyone whose working on cm7 for the sgs wants to do this again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hanged_man:
all upcoming HTC devices will have locked bootloader, plus i strongly doubt we're going to see CM7 on SGS2 since Samsung doesnt release (or at least not so far) the source code of the drivers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintermute000:
wait, does this mean no custom ROMs for SGS2 or rather they will just be less drastic modifications?

for example I don't think the galaxy tab custom ROMs use written from scratch drivers.

sorry new to custom roms.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funkym0nkey:
There will be plenty of custom ROMS. Just not AOSP rom anytime soon.

Basically with AOSP you will loose a lot which includes all the multimedia capabilities ( ability to play many containers and codecs natively with hardware acceleration ), hardware GPU acceleration in browser, probably MHL link and HD recording.

There are very few people who will be ready to give up all this to get AOSP rom for this phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sun-drop:
well it's rooted already isn't it?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lVft5HoKP8

but re CM7 .. again ..why? i use custom sense roms for my desire but CM7 and it's god awful cam ... yeh ..no thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android_master:
Man,never been a big fan of CM Roms,have moved to MIUI Froyo Rom{now with Formels MIUI Android 2.3 Rom},,tried CM many times but battery drain & other force close issues were in plenty.MIUI works best with my Nexus 1,,extremely fast,smooth,less battery drain ROM.

As far as Sensation goes,i hope it will be rooted,also it will be by June end when both SGS 2 & Senation will be launched in my region,so will have clear idea as to which one is getting more devs support{as xda support is what is most important for me rather than the phone itself}.

Have such a great time with N1.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android_master:
Not only Cyanogen,there are various different devs with their custom roms,but CM is used in most of the droids.

Samsung Galaxy S has a pathetic lag issue/faulty gps issue.

Even after so many lagfixes & workaround{in various roms},it still is very fragile.

Therefore you will definitely see people asking about SGS 2 lag issue or any GPS issue{hopefully GPS is great here in SGS 2 by default compare to quite pathetic in SGS}
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinokirk:
That being said, I'm sure (hope) some boffin will get custom ROMs on there at some point!

I'm not a fan of Sense/TW et al, but I love ADW Ex. I know I can still use ADW Ex on the SGS2 but it would make me feel better inside knowing that I have a totally AOSP ROM ands not ADW running ontop of the TW stuff :)

As I said, I'm a HTC fan, but one thing I am not is a Sense fan! I can only presume that will extend to TW, although I have never tried it. I also like to run my phone at 190dpi instead of the standard 240dpi that most phones run at. And with Sense at least, when you change to anything other than 240dpi, it does not like it one bit!

Does anyone know hope to use angry gps? Lbtest I could use slightly, but I havent even figured out how to open this.
[Captivate General] silentheero:
+1Trying to access it too. When I run it, it takes me directly to the Location and Security Settings. Woo, but not what I am looking for.
[Captivate General] vunuts:
Since I use LauncherPro, I create a shortcut on my homescreen for LauncherPro activities and select AngryGPS>com.android.angryGPS.AngryGPS and it opens up just like LBS test mode. There might be an easier way to access it, or different ways to access it on different launchers, but this works for me.
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
After playing around with it on adw, stock tw from juwes and sony arc launcher, its the same to create a shortcut for both.

(long press)> shortcut> activities> angry gps> first one in menu.

[Captivate General] Soccer_Dad:
You type it into the phone browser (or make a shortcut) - it's the same as in Froyo: *#3214789650#.

As to what to do when you are inside... Still figuring that out.
[Captivate General] vunuts:
Once you open it up, it's exactly like LBSTestmode.... Open it, got to settings and you can mess around with the general settings and the SUPL settings until you find the config that works best for you.

I haven't had to change mine at all, I just use whatever settings were in place and I've been getting 10 second locks with 6-8 satellites within 5 meter accuracy and spot on tracking.

[Captivate General] Nick0703:
Or you could just use "Any Cut" app from the market.....:rolleyes:
[Captivate General] chappatti:
The easiest way surprisingly is just to download and install Launcher pro........NO YOU DONT USE THE launcher, but it adds the activities shortcut to any launcher..........Figured out that the hard way.
[Captivate General] astroZ0MB1E:
Another way to get access to a lot of things like this is to use the app SGS Toolbox. It gives you access to things like the GPS menu and selecting data networks. I use it because I dont want an extra shortcut just to adjust GPS settings every once and a while.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kronikings:
Hey guys, is it possible to change the tbolt font? With the OG Droid i was able to install a font.zip through rom manager without any issues but I am unsuccessful with the tbolt....

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lu270bro:
I use an app called Font Changer from the market. Its free, although there is a donate version. Just download the font you want (search "fonts" in the xda search bar and you shouldn't have any problems finding any), unzip it, and move it to the ".fontchanger" folder on your sd card. Then, open the Font Changer app and it should pull up all the fonts that you loaded. I didnt change the names if the fonts were already named, or changed the name for differentiation purposes, but this was merely for personal preference, as when you go into the app the fonts will show up as how they actually look. I moved all 3 files inside each font, but dont know for sure if you need all three. Hope this helps.

BTW, it will ask you to reboot, but always hit reboot later because it locks up when you have the app reboot it.

[Epic 4G Themes] dreamsforgotten:
Carrier iq roms are similarly built fortunately for us. They share 3 things in common. Ciq is removed. Battery as percent mod. And reboot option. That's good cause say bonsai didn't have the reboot option or the code they wrote the reboot option with had a different value from say syndicate rom. Well then to theme it you'd have to edit the framework to match causing themers to make a syndicate, stock, and bonsai version of a theme just to have nothing but a few numbers in an xml file different. That would mean themers had to host 3 different themes about 50-90 megs behind 1 kb of differnt text. Luckily all the ciq roms share values across so to theme them you need a stock base (ec05) with the reboot mod and battery as percent baked in. The ciq part isn't affecting the themes the only change that ciq has on the themes is a file called dialertabactivity.apk. that's the apk for the dialer that is brought up when you press the phone icon. You must theme the dta.apk from the rom to work right all the other apps use stock deodex from ec05.

Why is that? So far eb13 and ec05 are the only carrier iq roms out and this supports both. You can flash the modded framework/twframework on both. Not that your request is out of line or asking alot just curious what sparked you to post that. I almost got the since you felt bamboozled by clicking the link :D

Btw this isn't a true theme template because it doesn't include apps or fonts both of which are included in a true theme template.

Lol you took my recommendation out of its size. it just looks nicer =) more "acs" cerified. (Idk wht I'm talking about there)

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nice-socks:
Hi Guys,

Firstly, please tell me if I've posted this in the wrong forum.

Today I tried connecting my NookColor to my Motorola Atrix via the Motorola tethering/wifi hotspot app. The Nook discovered the wifi network fine, which was unproteched (motorola default). When I connected to it the Nook said something like "Due to an authentication error your Nook will now reboot". I didn't have a choice and thought it'd just power cycle so I hit okay.

What happened next was a long reboot process which ended in the factory default "Welcome/Setup your new NookColor" screen.

I tried going through the setup. The last step was to connect to a network, so I tried my phone again. It was the only network available. It errored and said please turn off the nook or call customer service.

Any idea what has happened? I have connected my nook to wireless networks many times before, just not my phone's hotspot. Can I just follow the autonooter steps again and be okay? I haven't touched it since this happened.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bravesfan171:

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chibucks:
there are a few threads on this... the nook will factory reset wiping all your data. no one knows what triggers it though... unfortunately.

its happened to me when accessing the b&n apps... pain in the butt.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsf3g:
Yup, someone at B&N made a biiiiig boo boo. This is happening on a wide scale to Nook owners. Luckily for me, I've had WiFi off the last couple of days while trying to assess whether the Sqlite mods really do block the 1.2 OTA update, so I was not affected by this.

Also, I just signed up with Sprint and got an HTC Evo 4G, so I'm obsessed with my new toy lately. :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nice-socks:
Thanks for the quick reply.

So are you saying this could have happened at any moment? And isn't necessarily because of connecting to the tether?

I don't think I had 1.2 update installed, but are you saying that the book may have auto updated to it on it's own?

Thx for the help
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uEih:

I modifyed contacts.apk which is placed in /system/app

I could modifyed alomost of all O2X dial themes by changing images in contacts.apk

However, I couldn't find the image or xml file for setting up very bottom backgroud image of Dial.

You can see the capture image that I attached and marked.

I think the image for setting up the part of the background is not in contacts.apk file. I tried to change almost of all images in the file.

but nothing changes in the background.

I'm pretty certain modifyng the background would be needed changing xml log and files. but I don't know even which file has the log....

If you guys have ideas and ways to modify, please let me know...

and if it would be needed to fix xml log, please give me detailed information how to fix..like..which file is. and part of log..

because I'm not very good at understanding xml language.

I hope dialing application of Global version of O2X has the same framwork as Korean version of O2X (su660) so, I could get helpful information from XDA clever users.

That's all what I want to know..
