[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Icysoul:
You must find out the correct RUU for your Desire, you need to know if it was a branded phone or not and if it is AMOLED or SLCD. Cannot think on any other specification right now that would keep you from finding the right RUU...

I have a Desire that was originally Vodafone branded, Romania. I messed up something and I decided to use a RUU. Of course I couldn't find one from VDF RO, so I decided to use a WWE, the latest and it worked. You can also try it, but you still need to figure out if it's an AMOLED or a SLCD, I think.

Hey everyone!

I just updated my HD7 to the latest software through Zune, 7.0.7392.0

Does anyone know the best way to go about jailbreaking the device to be able to sideload apps and stuff because of this update? I'm not sure if anything changed with the process after the update occurred.

Also, on that note I'm finding a few different links to jailbreaking the device and I'm not sure which method is the best way.

Thank you in advance for your advice!
[HD7 General] jemaho:
First, you should read this:

Than, if your phone wasn't jailbroken before getting 7392, there's no way to do it unless by getting a developper account.

Hey, just encountered an issue and decided to dig this up.

I am using this app to switch to US/UK PlayStore, since in my country the app list is horrible (fart apps in Top 10 !! ) and also some wonderful apps aren't available.

However, today the app just stopped working. PlayStore is still 3.10.10, didn't delete anything, didn't flash a new ROM, mess with /system or any other way. Did Google "fix" something and can the app be updated to work again?

Tried all other similar Market "hacks" and nothing happens. Airplane mode/no sim also didn't do the trick.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RADLOUNI:
Hi Guys

If anyone has recently bought the SGS II and was before using the desire HD, would you kindly give me your feedback on the device as compared to the DHD. I am currently considering the upgrade and would like some feedback.

For me the DHD is a great mobile (speed, sense 2.1, stability, etc) and i am considering the upgrade to get a better GPU and faster performance due to the dual core.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] =dave=:
i switched from the dhd to the sgs2 and i dont regret it. compared to the sgs2 my dhd was a piece of crap.

build quality - fail

weight - fail

reception - fail

camera - fail

i dont even miss sense 2.1 since i've installed go launcher ex :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] no1male:
I have come from the dhd . Was running the revolution Rom and the dhd was good. Thing i notice since i have jumped ship is the speed. Even downloads e.t.c seem a he'll of a lot quicker.

Not a big fan of touch whizz but when you come from sense you can see why. Personally i think its a great phone which is far speedier then the dhd, and that's before custom Roms and kernels :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RADLOUNI:
software stability

Thanks guys for the feedback

what about overall software stability. Do you feel that the ROM is stable and fast like the HTC ROMs, or do you suffer from occasional hickups or lags.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redmongoose:
Software is good no issues.

I also find the battery alot better. Upgrade you will not regret it!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ptx:
Hey,

I am one such owner; I just received my SGSII yesterday. Let me share my preliminary thoughts.

Before I received it, I was worried about going from a aluminum uni-body construction to plastic, but the gain in slimness (in the hand, it's much more comfortable) and the loss of weight is extremely noticeable; surprising, even. Overall, the SGS II is just more comfortable, and the textured back lessens the plastic feeling. There's still a minor worry of "springiness", when you flick the back, you can feel it spring back just a little, but I'm not too concerned.

In terms of the UI, I hated Sense taking over several things, so I'm quite happy at how comparatively restrained TW is. I use a custom launcher, but the Sense call answering slider was bugging me to no end, as when I pulled the phone out of my pocket it usually rejected the call! This issue is gone, as SGS II has horizontal sliding, just like stock Gingerbread/Froyo. The lock screen is also very good, as it seems impossible to unlock it accidentally, even though it's an omni-directional unlock (something I was worried about).

As for the speed, it's no contest. I wouldn't have imagined such a big leap in performance (as I understand that software is still not optimized for dual-core processors), but the SGS II wipes the floor with the DHD. Web browsing is significantly and noticeably faster, there is no rare stuttering (especially in games, where the DHD would [rarely] stutter or not take screen input for a brief split second), and application installs FLY. I was taken aback by the difference; there's no doubt that this feels like a newer-generation phone. The biggest difference? The Gallery loads ridiculously fast.

The SAMOLED+ screen is ridiculously amazing as well, especially coming from a sub-par DHD LCD. Colors pop, black is truly black, and no more of the annoying Pentile matrix blurriness (I had the N1 prior to DHD). The contrast and color when viewing media is not accurate and overdone, but it just makes it more vibrant and more of a pleasure to watch.

Oh, and Kies Air is amazing as a sync and file-transferring tool; something like this negates the need for connecting to the PC at all.

The speaker is also louder by a significant amount (even compared with DHD after fw upgrade), although not really better quality.

Minor issues: when the device is fully charged, it emits an annoying "beep" and turns the screen on; horrible when you are asleep. Also, the phone dialer is not as good as HTC's implementation, and USB Mass Storage mode is a pain (plugging in the SGS II gives you an MTP connection to Kies by default; you have to first go to "Settings / Wireless and Networks / USB Utilities" and hit the "Connect storage to PC" before you plug in the cable). There's also no widget for Music (huge oversight IMHO). The font size in menus & Samsung applications is also bigger than the DHD... i haven't decided if I like that or not.

Overall, I have a feeling the DHD will slowly gather dust in the corner. I'm very happy with the SGS II, and it's exceeded my expectations to boot.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RADLOUNI:
comprehensive

Thanks Pal

that was a comprehensive feedback
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mentalinc:
Is it possible to a a widget to do this for you, kinda like the 3G/Wi-fi/GPS on-off buttons?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_wolf88:
I ordered SGS II and still I'm waiting for it )

I had Desire HD before and I really didn't like it !

The weight is too much and if I had a call for more than 10 mins I start to fell pain in my hand because of that weight !

Second I didn't like the HTC crap (Sense) because it modifies everything and it's pain in the back when it comes to calling screen because of the stupidity of making the slider for answering a call up or down because if it's in your pocket 95 % you will reject or answer the call when you try to take it out of your pocket !

And last for the custom roms (Desire HD) is peace of **** with their bootloader everything is not allowed !!

So If you are going to get SGSII just go for it you won't regret it !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samnada:
On the SGS you can go to Settings > Applications > USB settings, and select "Ask on connection". When you plug in the USB it automatically takes you to a screen to select Kies, Media player, or Mass storage. Is that still on the S2?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Another previous DHD user here. You won't regret moving from it, TouchWiz is poor compared to Sense but I don't use TW.

Most importantly for me the battery lasts much longer than the DHD.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdalacu:
The only thing I miss is Sence, far more polished then TW in every aspect: dialer, usb menu, contacts, sms, photo album widget and of course htc clock. And above all stability, I could run it without restart for weeks.

At every thing else, SGS2 is better: camera, battery, display, touch controller (no wavy lines) and overall speed.

Anyway, I don't regret the switch but if I ware you, I would wait for Sensation. Believe me, RAM difference between those 2 is not an issue and you will be able to play all the existing games (see missing texture compression).

Anyone that know a backup app/program that can backup all my data so that I can root my N1 2.3.4?

I can backup my SD easy with USB cable but the internal memory is a different story.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hypoferalcus:
Maybe downgrade?

Hello XDA-Community!

I got the same problem as TheWierd - I am running stock 2.3.4 on N1 with no root and locked bootloader. I would like to change to a custom rom to have more fun (and mainly because i am running out of internal memory, so a forced move2SD would be cool). But i dont want to lose some app data like savegames, settings etc.

Is there a way to have a good backup before flashing the new rom? so getting root without unlocking the bootloader and therefore wiping the whole device? (e.g. is it possible to downgrade to 2.3.3 and use gingerbreak oder superoneclick?)

Thanks for any help!

PS: I don't want to hijack your thread, TheWierd, just wanted to state, that you're not the only one how's got that problem
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWierd:
No problem mate, would think that more got this problem but no real info about it.

Find Sh**loads of threads with the answer "Titan Backup" etc. replies...

Like they don't know that you need root to do that...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hypoferalcus:
Hehe - ya, it's like an infinite loop - you want to root your phone, but in order to root it, you must unlock and therefore wipe it, before you can wipe it you want to backup the data, in order to backup you need to root your phone, ... etc. :)

I hope anyone can help here

:confused: Geez that is UGLY!!! You'd think a company like Seidio would make a sleeker looking back cover. I mean the Cheepo back covers you can get from Ebay look better than that. Come on Seidio, how about some effort. Aesthetics should go hand in hand when your paying that kind of money.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] notsointeresting:
+1 so with you there. I mean gorillagadgets has a3500mah battery for the shift with a much sleeker case for half the price. Now it probably doesn't perform as well as the seido but still your paying $50 for a battery make a LITTLE change to the case. You get what you get though

It's been a while since I first looked into this battery and thought I'd share. I've had it for a few months now and it performs great depending on the rom, kernel, cpu settings etc. The back is rubberized but didn't fit well when I got it. I made the holes for the camera lens and flash bigger which helped. There was also a velvet like pad inside the door that pushed against the battery that had to be removed. Once I took that out it fits great. Right now I'm running MikRunny. I hope this was useful. :)
