That is the reason why I have not moved away from my trusty vibrant. What do people think the next phone EDT and TeamWiskey will work on past the vibrant? I think which ever phone that is I will probably be getting. I just love this vibrant community and the hard work those vibrant developers put in to make all of our phones work better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nevrlow:
Been waiting for this phone forever. Kinda wish it was square like the og gs2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
SGH T989 is now officially real, seen the latest news?

http://www.tmonews.com/2011/08/samsung-hercules-unveiled-for-t-mobile-galaxy-s-2-variant-confirmed/

I'm getting it as soon as it touch down in stores
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jasonhunterx:
They already work on other phones but they still with us im gonna get new phone but my vibrant ain't goin any where
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] caffeinated chris:
new info that has just surfaced.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jRi0T68:
October 26 kinda pisses me off. I'm starting to doubt it will be released in 2011. Why must it take 5 or 6 months for the US to get it? Why is the US least important to them as a market?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MailenJokerbell:
The Sgs2 sounds good but I think I will wait and aim for the next nexus, if it's worth it.

I'm quite content with my vibrant still.

This is a cost of living in the states.

We'll have only one GSM carrier that doesn't provide free tethering and doesn't unlock any phones soon. Hell.

6 months from Oct 26, the rest of the world will probably have 1280x720 Ultra AMOLED Plus Plus SGS3!

i'm actually amazed Samsung being relatively new in this game field, actually earned such a huge fan base overlapping HTC

I was a bit hesitant at first when i got my Samsung I9000, Nexus S, Vibrant last year, but now i know it's a good choice

Why did all the US carriers have to **** up the design? The international GSII had the best hardware I've seen on a phone in a long time, and now it's completely rounded corners and enormous screens galore (4.5 is too big and I have relatively large hands).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hausmanis:
its awesome
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] caffeinated chris:
sooooo the 1.5ghz dual core isnt good enough for you? :rolleyes:

haha I'm pretty sure thats a pretty nice upgrade if you ask me.. :cool: haha

and the rounded corners work better than hard edges. less chance of breaking screen due to landing on a corner, and it fits better in your pocket and hand.

Personally I like the rounded edges. I'm thinking the Captivate VS the Vibrant, I choose Vibrant all day long. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasonleb1:
I don't really need 1.5 GHz, 1.2 is more than enough. And I am not a fan of drastically rounded corners in the least; they make any device look cheap in my opinion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] L Eric:
1.5 GHz Snapdragon... Despite the higher clock speeds it will not be as fast as Samsungs very own Exynos Processor. As well as being the odd Galaxy S2 out of the bunch which won't help with Dev work and the sort (can't be sure on that of course though)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoAppleAllowed:
If having the Qualcomm means faster data speed (HSPA+) then sign me up.

"What’s with the processor change? Well, the Qualcomm chipset supports HSPA+ connectivity of T-Mobile that sports the data speed of up to 42Mbps, while the Exynos tops 21Mbps speed “only.” It is highly possible that T-Mobile has decided to ditch the Exynos in favor of the so-called “faster” data speed."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] L Eric:
Oh definitely. Also, don't take what I said above as saying this processor is slow, just not quite as zippy as the Exynos.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] carden12:
It's a very nice phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] caffeinated chris:
So I'm very undecided on what to do here... Do I want to go for the Hercules, or do I want to wait for Kal-El? gahhhhh

Anyone know the GPU on the hercules? Because when all the insane graphic games come out for phones, I want to be able to play them!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
you do know the Quad cores will not be out until like 2013...

and that only if a big IF comes out at all in the next 2 years

you can bet we'll see even more faster Dual Cores phones on 2012, before they even release the Quad Cores

so basically it comes down to, if you need a new BEAST phone, get it, otherwise wait for the Quad Core.

in my case i want more power now, the Nexus S is too little for me, and the SGS2 is not compatible with the Tmobile network, therefore we are stuck with the Samsung Galaxy S2 (Hercules edition)

Nexus 3 or as the official names goes by "Nexus Galaxy" ? will bot be available until way later, and even if it's available, it might or might not have SD card slot

same idea, same thing, the current Nexus S sucks due the lack of space, i love playing games on the phone, but the lack of space makes it extremely hard to carry the games that you want + the audio that you want + video that you want

at least a phone with a SD card slot, then you can keep the stuff on the SD card itself instead of burning up the space inside the internal storage
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kuba Dick:
Mhhhh...that´s look great :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
if i were you i'll grab the AT&T version of SGS2

why would you want to grab the Tmobile version of SGS2 when you are on AT&T?

it does not compute :eek:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] compuguy1088:
I'm going to guess that he is hoping the Hercules has the 1900 mhz band like the vibrant did.

Honestly I just bought the international SGS2. I rather get the updates sooner than have to wait for AT&T or T-Mobile to push an update.

this is phone is a winner spec wise and network flexibility

What do you guys think of the HTC Amaze from T-Mobile? I love HTC and am willing to try out Samsung 'cause the Galaxy S2 looks promising.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:

except for the screen

However that camera look sexy with all the stuff they add... I wish we could have on the SGSII. That's the only reason I'm looking at the Amaze over the Hercules or Nexus Prime

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mulh6838:
I have rooted and installed roms on my vibrant a lot of times...Im not sure I I got into this problem..

-When rebooting to recovery from rom manger, it says signature verification toggle failed

-I toggle signature toggle and everything works fine, until I reboot and try again

I have ODIN'ed back to stock and even re-rooted..still same problem

-When the phone boots it has 2 screens, galaxy s i9000 and then vibrant?

-I have tried changing kernel and everything else I can think of...

Somebody please help me!

-right now Im running bionix 1.3.1, I have also tried to run this from the simply honey roms as well
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Well don't understand what the real issue is, but if the custom rom has a ported Galaxy kernel then you would see the Vibrant then> I9000 splash screen or vice-versa

That is not a problem it is supposed to do that

Odin back to stock JFD Make sure to back up everything on the computer then> make sure to click repartition box then flash the re-root then load Rom manager and then flash ---->

Trigger, Bi-winning or Malice from EDT.......... I guarantee what you see will be something much more to your liking.....

Good luck..........
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcboosted:
I searched around but didn't see any good answers to this.

A friend's Epic's screen just died for no reason. It's currently running EE 2.0.08 rom. Unfortunately, without the screen, I can't really make a backup under cwm before sending it in to Sprint. Is there a way to do it via adb?

I plan on restoring to stock via ODIN before sending it in, but before that happens, a backup would be nice so it can be restored to the new phone.
[G Tablet General] Mengo80:
Hi Friends,

I don't post here much, I just bought one of these tablets and got it to work perfect through some amazing instructions here. I'm not much of a smart guy when it comes to this really complicated coding etc. so I don't contribute much but I need a little help.

My table is stuck in the Viewsonic start up screen. I tried booting into clockwork and it says it will but then just reboots right back to viewsonic screen. (screen shot provided) I have zero clue on what to do and think it may be hosed.

Can you anyone help? Has anyone had this issue?

Thanks a million for your help.

[G Tablet General] TJEvans:
Did you attempt any of the fixes that are posted in the forums?

Repartition?

Wipe chaches?

Reflash the rom you're using?

Try the repartion first

2048 for first option, then 0 for second.
[G Tablet General] Mengo80:
I cant get into any function at all. Thats the only screen I see. When I press power volume + and it says its going to boot into clockworm but it jst flashes the screen and back to main screen. Its basically stuck there. : (
[G Tablet General] TJEvans:
apologies, I missed that part :o

Sounds like a job for NVFlash...but I've never used that either
[G Tablet General] helium7:
try use power and volume - to boot into apx mode, and nvflash it with ur computer?
[G Tablet General] Enectic:
Yup, sounds like you need to nvflash. There are posts here that guide you how to do this. Don't be intimidated. The whole process is actually very easy.
[G Tablet General] Mengo80:
Thank you all for your assistance!

I'm going to give NFlash a try and report back.

I sincerely appreciate all the advice.

Again, thank you!
[G Tablet General] Mengo80:
You guys ROCK! I was able to restore everything using NvFlash! I went into APX mode, restored the drivers, then used the .bat file and BAM! Then logged on to the wireless and downloaded the latest 3588 (I believe). I'm back up and operational!

This site is a Godsend! Time to make a donation!

Thank you so much guys! It was so easy with the step by step directions a caveman can do it.

Again, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your question has nothing to do with the original poster's question so you should start a new thread with a descriptive title.

It is not likely anyone will see your post here except accidentally. Also, search for "linux" and you will find a few threads covering it.

Yup NVFlash is the way to go. Saved me much frustration several times when I thought I just flushed $300 down the drain.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] what25:
So using the secret menu, I was trying different methods to see what signal strengths I was getting at my place, same spot. Interesting enough, the signal strength bars are different when using CDMA auto prl (4-bars) and EvDo only (2-bars) mode, even though I still see the 3g icon. Also, it seems the 1x radio is always on in every mode except EvDo only, plus I tried calling using all 5 modes.

Thus far, (1-yes, 0-no) I can make a call in mode:

CDMA auto PRL - 1

CDMA only - 1

EvDo only - 0

CDMA + LTE/EvDo - 1

LTE only - 1

so my question is, why can't I (and is anyone able to) make calls over EvDo only mode? When I place one, it hangs for a sec, and ends automatically saying "Call was lost". I was hoping to get better call quality (even if I can't have 4g speed), cuz right now calls sometimes sound muffled (but clear enough to understand), compared to when I had my nexus one on t-mo. (I tried eHRPD and EvDo-rev.a modes to no avail)

PS I know (atleast I read somewhere) that the T-Bolt cannot support calls over LTE itself, or VoLTE as it's called (unless if that's changed or I am wrong.)

Any thoughts? your experiences? I just want to get ppl's thoughts on this.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] what25:
So... I guess no answers then?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spuniun:
Well, EvDO-only would not permit any voice calls because you've told the radio to only operate with a data signal. EvDO, or "Evolution-Data Optimized", is the 3G data component of CDMA wireless networks, so without a preferred network mode that includes CDMA you won't have any voice service.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squeakyl:
when i had my phone on evdo only (stupidly thinking it was 1x) i couldn't make or receive any calls
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
evdo handles data, 1x handles calls/sms
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingdo:
Right. CDMA = 1x data and voice EVDO = data only. If you force the phone into a data only mode, voice will not function.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sighted:
After updating my i9000 to GB (and of course changing the bootloaders),The GSM (not WCDMA) 850 simply can´t conect. Has anyone had the same issue? is there a way to revert to 2.2.1 bootloaders (in my opinion is the only change I´ve made). Really need help! Txs all.

PS: this issue is not related to 3G 850 mhz, which is working just fine, but to 2G (Gsm) 850 mhz, which used to work prior to GB.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dlockhart:
just flash a modem that has 850 enabled.. mine works on 850
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rschenck:
Exactly..use JL2 (my favorite) or KC1. You should be golden.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sighted:
not 3G...

Txs, but I'm having this problem on GSM (2G) 850mhz, not on WCDMA (3G).

It's like this freq suddenly "disapeared" after updating to GB.

It used to work on the same modem I'm using now.

Also no response when trying to go back to 2.2. That's why I suspect it's something related to the bootloader with GB.

Running BAMF 1.6.3 every once and awhile when trying to download from the market I get a "can't install to SD or phone memory" error. Any ideas?
[Thunderbolt General] Envirosciguy:
I have the same problem with certain apps from the market (Air Attack HD and Tune Wiki to name a few). I get the message that it "can't install to SD card and I think it also says something about USB. I have gone into BAMF Toolkit and "Application Install Location" and tried all three options and still does not want to work. I read in one post that there is a Market App fix, but I've tried searching for it with no luck. Any help on this would be appreciated
[Thunderbolt General] mallen462:
I get the same error with angry birds
[Thunderbolt General] mcmillanje:
Try removing your SD card before download.
[Thunderbolt General] Envirosciguy:
Pulling the SD card prior to download did not work for me. I am only getting the error on certain apps. Tune Wiki for example will not install from Market. I then went to their web page and tried to install the app directly (as an attachment from my email) and it won't install from there either. That makes me think that there is a remnant of the program somewhere on my phone or some other error that is preventing this and has nothing to do with the Market App. Does anyone have suggestions. I've installed Root Explorer on my phone, but not exactly sure where I should be looking and what I should be deleting. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running BAMF 1.6.3.
[Thunderbolt General] bardoom:
Read a post about clearing market cache. Still no love. Gonna keep trying. Let's keep this post alive until we figure this out.
[Thunderbolt General] Envirosciguy:
Yeah, I tried deleting the Market cache and cleared data and that didn't help. I don't think it is a Market issue though (read my post a couple up), since I can download most apps from the Market. The only ones I have problem with are ones that were previously on my phone, and this is not all of the previous apps, just some of them. Also attempting to install a app (one that I had trouble with from Market) from an email attachment also will not install. Are others that are having this problem having the same symptoms: can download some apps, can't install problem apps from email either?
[Thunderbolt General] Envirosciguy:
So I need to back track as now my Market App is not installing anything. I've tried what others have suggested go into Manage Programs and delete cache, clear data and force stop Market app, and that has just made matters worse.

Hello my friends, been a long time since I checking back to this forums.

Ever since I bought my HD7 running Windows Phone 7, I am loving my WP7 so much and didn't touch my Tp2 until today when I was cleaning out my old phones.

I really miss cooking personal roms for my TP2, so I am here looking to see what's new and what's the latest ROM built these days.

Anyway, just want to write and say hello to my fellows.
