Two options for i9100 Encryption

On Stock Samsung ROMs pre-ICS you can use Galaxy Device Encryption free or pro by hellcat (see google play) for full device encryption, including optional encrypting of the external SD card. Note, it has to be stock rom for this to work on GB and this only works on certain Samsung models that they added the encryption ability to the OS but didn't give the user a way to activate.

ICS supports encryption natively and gives the user access to turn this on without a push from an exchange server or the like, assuming this hasn't been removed/disabled by the developer of the ROM you're using.

[Galaxy S II General] Timmmmmm:
One day there'll be an android phone with a touchscreen as good as the iphone...

Actually the S2 touchscreen seems to be pretty good. The only issue I've found is this: There appears to be a 'move threshold'. I.e. when you touch the screen, the touch-down even is sent fine, but when you move your finger slightly no move event happens. You have to move at least.. maybe 2 mm, before any move events happen, at which point the touch jumps from its original position to the correct one. This has the effect of making all scrolls and pans start with a little jump.

Even the crappy touchscreen on my N1 doesn't do this. To me it sounds like a software issue -- maybe even deliberate -- rather than hardware. Does anyone know why they would do this, or how to fix it?
[Galaxy S II General] bcam117:
You should make a youtube video showing this issue.
[Galaxy S II General] snoopstah:
Multitouch Visualizer shows this issue clearly (as well as, on a positive note, showing the screen can identify and track at least 10 touch points simultaneously -- nice!)
[Galaxy S II General] Funkym0nkey:
Yup, looks like software big. hope its fixed in next update. Try playing pool break game, the direction change due to this bug is annoying.
[Galaxy S II General] mdalacu:
I think it's a future, not a bug: Not scrolling when you lift your finger off the screen, because you can't lift it perfectly vertically. It happens some time on my DHD.
[Galaxy S II General] dinan:
I've noticed this in every android phone even my nexus one. It must be the way android is written, doesn't seem like there's much you can do about it =(

Also all android phones seem to lag with the touch input. The time between the actual movement of your finger and the screen moving is much greater than ios or wp7 devices. Its like the content is following your finger around lagged while on ios or wp7 its always directly under your finger.
[Galaxy S II General] snoopstah:
The N1 does it in some places but not all. The most obvious place it doesn't do it in is the (stock) lock screen. It also doesn't do it when you slide the notification bar up from the bottom (but does when you slide it down from the top!)

The SGS2 seems to do it absolutely everywhere. I also think that the 'step' is bigger on the SGS2, although that might just be due to the screen being larger. It's quite possible that when someone creates an AOSP ROM for the SGS2 it'll go back to doing it in the same places as the N1.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C-Reactor:

I don't know if you know the awesome NewsBlur: an intelligent RSS reader with a nice UI and a really fast experience.

The fact is that the developer tweeted this: http://twitter.com/newsblur/statuses/67005951286329344

The reason is that he doesn't have an android device, so he can't develop an android app.

If you want to create it, he released some impressive API!
[Android Apps and Games] Namuna:
Thanks for the heads-up on NewsBlur. The site itself looks very promising. It's a much richer experience vs. the generic Google Reader.

If it had a Find feature like GR does, it would've had a strong chance of becoming my new reader...But it doesn't (that I can see), so with GR I stay.

As for on the Android, I use NewsRob...If someone were to do yet another rss reader for Android, they've got big shoes to fill! :)

Hi,

Does anyone know how to adjust sound mixer levels? It seems the no matter where i set the level to, it still sounds distorted .
[Galaxy S I9000 General] koflem:
Look into the dev section and get a kernel or rom that has voodoo sound. There are a lot of them, so just pick one that you would like the best.

Follow the instructions carefully and you should have a better sound as well as speed, battery, responsiveness and other improvements, depending on the rom/kernel.

And if you're afraid of flashing and/or want to support supercurio, you can simply buy voodoo control plus from market.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cantIntoCode:
You can buy voodoo control plus on the market by Supercurio. His sound improvements are simply astonishing. You can have voodoo sound without a custom kernel as long as you have root. Also it helps support him ;)

I am starting this thread to let everyone know about the quality control samsung has, whether the device was properly tested for quality issues hardware wise or things were rushed up at samsung.:confused:

To check your Samsung Galaxy S2 for dead pixels:

1. Just open the dial pad and dial *#0*# which will bring up the lcd test menu.

2. Now touch the red, green, and blue buttons one by one to check for dead pixels.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedBlueGreen:
i might of not had a dead pixel.. but i had 3 phones that had a blue line across the screen when viewing a white or grey background.

Also the phone gets super hot and i can now smell something from it.. from the top left of the phone. Gonna send it back today and not get another one.. might wait for the iphone5 or see what else comes out.

[HD7 General] cina:
Hi Ansar!

Can you post your ROMs without any update integrated? I ask this because without NODO Chevron is working and jailbrake can be preserved though official M$ updates.

I need HD7_HTC_Europe_1.70.901.0 without NODO to be able to sideload apps.

Another workaround is that you include Chevron and some relock prevention in your ROMs and update them to latest official M$ level before posting.

Is this possible?

Regards,

Cina.
[HD7 General] wolfsstolz:
You can use Rom with v.1.6.x from Here , when you have patch with Chevron use Chevron patch from Forum and now you can make all Updates and you will not Lose your patchd phone;) pn me and i will search tomorrow all Files i write from phone now
[HD7 General] cina:
1.6

Hi!

I use 1.6 right now patched, chevroned and updated to latest. I have an issue of my carrier name probably due to radio version. Carrier signal should be "T-Mobile H" but it is displayed as "T-Mobile Hyyyyy". I know its not a big problem but it disturbes my a lot. With 1.7 I have it O.K. but I couldn't sideload.

Is there a ROM Upgrade (ANDROID 2.1 or 2.2) for HTC TOUCH HD?

I know there are some files like haret.exe but i like to do it with this

Is that possible????

Thanks a lot

no, currently there is no complete stand alone nand android rom for the blackstone since it is not yet stable and many features are not working (like bluetooth or 3.5mm). but afaik it is being worked on so there might actually one day be a full android rom for the nand instead of the sd card.

Hey,

I'm sry about my question (and my english, just got "school-english-skills" from Germany, a few years ago ;)), tried to do the search but found nothing I'm able to understand...

A good friend of mine has a HTC HD Touch (Blackstone?) and wants to flash a "stable" Android Version on it. I'm able to flash the HTC Magic, Wildfire, Desire & co. but I'm not able to understand what I've got to to, wich files I need and what I should do with that.

Could anyone help me ? Linked files that I need and a short instruction would be very very great !

(Please do me a favour and don't say something like "use search" and so on, I need to understand what I have to do with wich files :o)

Many thanks in advance
[Touch HD General] zagitta:
There is no flashable android rom for Blackstone yet
[Touch HD General] Chef_Tony:
exactly. as of now, there is no android rom for the internal flash (nand) to replace the current windows mobile os. but there are still ways to get android working alongside winmo, by simply putting it on the sd card.

basically, what you need is a rom, haret and ts-calibration+startup.txt.

for the rom itself, there are dozens of different roms around this very forum section. look for the most recent ones and compare them by the features needed. some of them hardly have any support for the blackstone hardware, when it comes to camera, sound, BT, 3.5mm jack, calling... and are purely for fun and apps, some others are more suitable for everyday use. make sure to read a few posts of user feedback to get what you want.

most roms come with their own haret package (the winmo program to boot android), which, like the rom itself, needs to be extracted to the sd card root.

ts-calibration is the file needed to store the touch screen calibration, so you don't have to align it yourself, which can be tricky in android.

startup.txt stores the boot commands, which can be altered to your needs, have a look at a few of them and pick the best one (which seems difficult at first, but you can search any command in there to find out what it means). some come with overclocking or different values which can speed up or slow down the device, it set wrong.

and, to sum it all up, here is a tutorial thread describing the whole installation (well, copy) process:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=959831

it is not completely up to date, but you can use the same tutorial, the same haret, ts-calibration and startup for other, newer roms, like blazn 2.2.2 or whatever you want.

I actually got thunderg but there is a folder in my memory card of clock mod work.

i've thundergs with 1.2 version of that.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shhbz:
as u want to know which is better you will get two ways comment on it .as far as recovery is concerned clockwork is better and soon its getting an update so all little bugs will be solved the only drawback at ths point of time is all rom doesnt support flashing from clockwork and even we will be getting rom manager support soon.

my vote +1 to clockwork

Xoom, Transformer, etc all get support, but we do not, as of now.

a2sd directly install the app and games in your ext parttion which the phone recognise as and internal memory along with the data stored in ext which does not create any problem to run the app and games .its required only when you use 100 + app (a larger space required) orelse if u are a moderate users you can avoid creating a2sd

Do It At Your Own Risks . I Ain't Responsible if anything got wrong with you ( you know what are you duin , if not why you are here !!!!! )

hello everyone

as many of us got the same problem with the battery drain ..

for me after a 3weeks or 4 having this problem . i was really angry of it every second i'v to put my tab on the charger and wait for 20mins only from 99 to 100%

it's not fair right .. i love overcome ( kernel,Rom ) but its sucks my battery life

many ppl advised me to battery calibration , wipe battery status from CWM

but it is not working .. i flashed rotohammer then i reflash overcome back ,but its still drain ..

so what i did after almost a month of trying everything ..

from 2days an idea comes to mind and i really try it and it's really work my battery life now its working as same stock battery .. no drain . only 1time charge a day ( Night )

anyways i don't want to talk to much cuz of my english its (sucks) i know tnx for not mention that :)

lets start with the steps

1- flash any stock rom from Samfirmware.com with P1_add_hidden.pit and without root normal rom and don't worry about the bootloader

2- flash the rom via ODIN 1.7

3- now you back to the original stock , root your phone using ( superoneclick) or any root method

4- after rooting , grab the bootloader from XDA and install it in your tab or phone to make sure you can flash new kernels :)

5- after u did all the steps above .. using odin also flash the latest Overcome kernel using odin also ( PLS FOLLOW OVERCOME GUIDE )

6-before u flash the kernel make sure u put the rom in ur sdcard . and pls pls if u wan to success you must follow overcome guide ( don't say i didn't say later )

7-now you are done now hit the thanks button and pls give your opinion

NOTE : usually this prob happens to who upgrade to 1.6.x or some of few ppl who got this prob they can also use this solution .

sorry for keep talking talking and make u read a sucks english and too much lines :)

try and inform

good luck
