This hack does work but be aware of odd issues noted afterward.

I edited my build prop file exactly as shown in the post and installed the posted apk, and although the attached screenshot shows "mahimahi" not "machimachi" as the post itself shows I used machimachi. But on my hd2 when I shut off and restarted the phone I found these settings immediately breaks the GPS and makes my stock navigation (blue arrow) icon and its associated app. Inoperable. So I reverted back to my original build prop settings, saved, rebooted. Then downloaded the uppdated Netflix app (will add link to this post when I find it again), and Netflix, GPS, Navigation icon and it's app works normally again.

Edit: found link to working apk.

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] hereignssupreme:
Yeah, I'm guessing this only worked before the update. I'm running Hyperdroid CM7 and it's still working fine. As for the GPS issues I haven't noticed any issues. And I also did use machimachi.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] hereignssupreme:
Yes you have to do what's explained in the link. I used root explorer. And make sure you type "machimachi" instead of "mahimahi".
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] hereignssupreme:
Please read my Final Edit for a fix of this. Thank you for making me aware of this issue.

I would now guess I should have just added these lines to the build.prop? And not just delete what is inside and leave it the only thing. Well that bricked my phone, now I guess I have to do a install of E19 again and start from scratch, unless someone knows how to restore the backup? My phone won't boot now..

Well adding them didn't work.. (I also managed to unbrick my phone)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] hereignssupreme:
WOW! I mean the link is there for a reason. It can't even go into Magldr or Clockwork?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dseng13:
Yeah the link explains it a lot clearer. Its good that you got your phone working again.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Oditius:
OK, I read the link too. I got the phone back running, so I tried again, but this time on my backup Mes. It appeared in my market, but when I sign in it just closes. :confused:
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] hereignssupreme:
When you first sign in are you still on the edited Build.prop? Make sure when you download Netflix and sign in that you're still on the edited build.prop and not the original one.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Oditius:
Yes, I haven't restored it yet.. Very frustrating, I downloaded and app that now won't let me logon, says wrong password. I might just give up on this Netflix thing soon, my free trial will run out soon.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] hereignssupreme:
Free trial? Lol I don't think you can stream to phones with a free trial. If you do upgrade to an actual membership, try again.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Oditius:
Hmmm I might pass then. I have a tablet coming in, might see if it works with that.
[General Questions and Answers] Maurhabs:
My unlocked Samsung Galaxy S I9000 was originally purchased in Europe. I now use it on the Telus network in Canada. Everything seems to run OK. However, when in use, the word Telus and the 3G symbol does not appear on my screen. And yet, when I check which network I,m on, it says that I am registered on Telus. Can someone tell me why this is happening and how to fix?
[EVO 4G General] rhettobis:
I have a rooted evo and the other day is was face down in a bit of water on the table. The screen started to fail and has gone to black. The phone is able to power up but I am unable to tell if anything is working. Radioshack wouldnt repair it because they could tell it was rooted.

My thoughts are that since Radioshack could identify it as being rooted it must be functional and thus the display is the issue.

Im going to try returning it to Sprint repair store as well but feel that may fail. Can I unroot without use of the display?

I want to try replacing the lcd screen and maybe the glass as well. Is that the appropriate steps based upon what I know?

Any thoughts or input is greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
Seems like quite the predicament your in. If you have a HDMI cable for your evo and am running a kernel that supports full mirroring of your screen you may be able to navigate that way and possibly find a way to unroot. Or get the files needed to unroot the bootloader/recovery way and put them into a folder called "1" so you can blindly navigate amon recovery and they will be in the first folder.

Just talking suggestions out of my ass tho haha. Good luck
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
Oh and I forgot to mention put the 1 folder on you sdcard haha but I think you would have figured that out ;)
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
Or do the ruu unroot method. Idk how either of these work so you may want to look into them.

Or you can just replace the screen yourself :P
[EVO 4G General] rhettobis:
I will be taking it to Sprint one last time to see if they will replace screen as part of $35charge.

Otherwise i will try replacing the screen myself (hoping it is only the screen).

I raised a little hell over the cost of replacing the EVO and they offered it at 199 plus 130 one month credit with 2yr extension. Not bad but may wait for 3D.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
just run a RUU that should kill your root :p PS make sure your sd card is not in it
[EVO 4G General] rhettobis:
Thanks for all the help, put PC36IMG on sd and took it to a sprint repair center. 37.45 with tax and another EVO en route.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rovman:
Generally speaking I'm in good coverage but I'm having this weird issue. Some days after charging over night I unplug the phone and have great battery life that day. Looking at the battery status everything looks as you would expect, cell standby appearing pretty low in the list and showing maybe 1 or 2% 'time without signal'

Then other days, for no apparent reason, my battery life will be terrible and cell standby will be the highest battery drain on the list (40% or so) and showing 100% 'time without signal'. However, and this is the bit I don't understand... I do actually have good signal in both cases. I've tested by sending and receiving texts and calls.

I guess my question is, does anybody know why my phone might 'think' it has no signal even though it does, and why it consumes more battery when this happens?

Something I've noticed also is that 'settings>status>signal strength shows that i do have a signal in both cases (pretty much same values in both too). But, when doing '*#*#4636#*#*' it shows '-0dbm 0 asu' if my phones having the 100% thing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valdigre:
Same issue here, I have 100% time without signal however I have full 3-4 bars of signal. Charged before nifht, unplugged and lost 25% of battery over night because of this, as if the phone had no coverage at all.

Usually setting it to offline mode and back to online helped, but today it does not help...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robart76:
Same issue here. Even if the sim card's not in. Too many issues with this phone. Will end up on ebay!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valdigre:
Omg, don't panic dude. Just wait patiently on firmware update :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Locster126:
I've got the same issue, well atleast mine says "time without signal 100%" eventho I do have signal most of the time..however my drain seems to small in comparison to yours..it usually takes like 10% - 15% of battery in a full charge, so quite normal.

wonder why it shows 100% time without signal tho....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackhol:
i have the same problems on my phone. i got the '-0dbm 0 asu' reading working once and the time without connection went down from 100% to 99%. but i was so happy i can't remember what i did :S i tried all different kinds of firmwares. but i'm tryin to get it to work again. :S it had something to do with the cdma or gsm mode on my phone.

let's hope we get it fixed it really drains my battery
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrxd:
In the same boat as you lot. Cell standby battery use is very low but getting reports of "Time without a signal" 99%, even though I have full 4 bars most of the time and make and receive calls with no issue.

Running XWKE7 for what it's worth, are any of you guys on different firmware?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jesmicael:
i knew something was odd, i spent today wondering why over 2 hrs my battery dropped from 80% to 50% and even when I try to reboot and recharge, the 'cell standby stats' say its been on since recharge and at 100%.

i'm on XXKG1 with litening rom v 2.2 flashed earlier.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Lecctro:
You've tried it on your SGS2? I did, but it seems that none of the modifications make that much of a difference, unfortunately :(. Pretty weird, since the Galaxy S 2 uses, from what I know, exactly the same touch screen as its predecessor (Amtel MaxTouch or something).

Wonder how much effort a port would cost.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] playerzking:
It seems samsung patched that on 2.3.3. After updated to jv5, touchscreen booster don't work on my sgs1 too.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Lecctro:
Unfortunately, I have never used this apk on my Samsung galaxy s 1. So I wonder; does this screen booster make your phone get rid of the split second screen delay? (Noticeable when you navigate very slowly with your finger on a webpage, 0.3~0.5 seconds after you initiated your gesture the screen jumps to your finger and starts following. If so, then this phone is on the same level of smoothness as the iOS devices :-) (well, that's what I think).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] alanjp168:
I don't know if anyone else noticed but the SGSII also has Touchscreen lag(a pretty bad lag I would say, around 0.1-0.2sec delay).

The lag is VERY VERY noticeable when playing games which needs fast response like Fruitninja, Modern Combat 2 etc.

On my old DHD and iPad these games were really enjoyable with 0 lag! Hopefully some Devs can look into it and find a way to fix it.

Well..for now i guess i will just wait and pray. :(
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] vitalij:
thats true lag is definetly here. Very easy to notice when playing Impossible Game. On my previous SGS playing was much easier.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] d3sm0nd:
The app is actually working... when I set it to Super Optimized I can see a difference! People in the comments write that it also works on other devices...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] alanjp168:
That is false, I tested it and it does not work. To verify this, install "Multitouch Tester" from market and run it(maybe any other touchscreen test tool will do). You can easily see the lag while sliding your finger over the screen, cuz the circle simply cannot catch up.

And this lag does not exit in DHD or any other LCD devices i guess. Hope it is not an AMOLED input lag. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Lecctro:
I wouldn't say the touchscreen is slow, it's actually very fluid in tracing your movements. But try and tap on your screen in the touch-viz app, tapping quickly; I can manage to touch the screen without registering a touch... No doubt there is a slight delay. But I it's not a deriving from the use AMOLED screen technology, others android devices I've seen suffer from this delay as well. I guess it's just part of the overall android touch calibration. Most touchscreens mange to house response times below 0,001 ms I once read~

Btw. People in different forums are complaining about the slight delay as well. For some of them the delay is even more noticeable. Maybe a future firmware update can solve this “potential downfall”.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] alanjp168:
I certainly hope so! ;)

BTW this is what Samsung avertises on their website. But in reality the response time is no where near fast.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] big_adventure:
Samsung is talking about the claimed sub-1ms display response time of the SAMOLED+ display itself - this has nothing to do with the touch substrate or its related delays.

All displays have some delay from the time the GPU sends a signal until it is shown onscreen. Sammy claims that this screen is among the fastest ever put into a device. For reference, good desktop gaming displays aren't that fast in response time, nor are good HDTVs.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viscometer:
I flashed my hboot from bravo_alphaspl-cm7.img to bravo_alphaspl-oxygen.img. I used the "Android Flasher utility" after preforming a nandroid backup. I believe I flashed it properly, since I can get into my hboot and it says alpharev oxygen at the top in pink. That being said i cannot boot into either cm7 or oxygen rom. I think i need to reflash alpharev? how would I do that without booting into rom?

[resolved] Guess i didn't wipe my data....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
I think the /system partition of the oxygen hboot is to small for the cm7 rom. Usually you should flash hboot on this way:

1.) Make nandroid backup

2.) Flash hboot

3.) Boot into recovery, wipe everything and then restore nandroid-backup

OK so I have an OCD prob.

On the stock rom (rooted but not stock) I can't get the damn widgets to center on the screen. it's far left or far right. I've tried other home apps and I don't like them. I would prefer the stock rom with centering widgets lol. Is this a setting i an missing or is it just not possible?

What could cause this problem anyways? anyone know?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznprodgy:
having never flashed RoyalGinger, I wish I had an answer for you....but unfortunately I dont. have you tried reading through the ROM's thread to see if anyone else has had the same problems as you did? also, is your phone still acting up?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
I read an article online (No I don't remember where) about how the amount of viruses are increasing for the mobile platform. It's also possible you got a bad download, where even if you wiped everything and reflashed you'd end up with the same "bat****" goin on. I've had RoyalGinger since testing and never had any issues like the one your describing, if you could pull a logcat so we can see what's happening then I'm sure we could help you better. To pull a logcat you can use either adb or an app on the market called "alogcat", it can save the logcat as a .txt file if you ask it to. Be careful when posting due to the fact that a logcat records EVERYTHING and trying to get through all of that to find the error is a real pain. Last but not least if you find a solution post up the issue and your solution to the roms thread so the developer (TeamRoyal) can be made aware.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gh0zt36:
Well i posted the problem on the roms thread to see if anyone else had the problem and i took it by it getting steam rolled right over that the answer was no since no one replied to it . and at the time the problem had manifested itself i hadnt downloaded anything and since i havnt been on a signifigantly long phone call since yesterday im not sure if its fixed allthough the short call i was on it didnt happen after wiping devick and fixing permissions HOWEVER when i turned the wifi on to download and app from the market the damn clock app started popping up again... im bout to remove that app and see what happens .... ill install a market alarm clock app and see if that fixes

[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
T-Mobile will give you the code for free, just ask.
[HD7 General] bpo157:
I spoke with tmobile about the unlock code. Is it just to unlock to use any sim or will it unlock the phone to use with the new windows phone tool they have out now. I try to use the tool now and it says phone is locked, will this code unlock it. Thanks
[HD7 General] unsined:
The unlock code from T-mobile will only SIM unlock the phone (you can use with any carrier that has SIM cards).

To dev unlock the phone, you can register on create.msdn.com and use the tool there, or use something like ChevronWP7.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwyan Benton:
I got a question that im unsure of the answer. I recently flashed the new firmware with BB.67. Cant remember the firmware number. I live in Canada, so it changed my X10a to a X10i...which isnt a big deal for me....but what im unsure of is does the firmware and baseband your using effect the accuracy of the GPS navigation? A couple days ago I typed in a address I needed to get to for work and the GPS sent me to the opposite side of the damn city. I love this new firmware and baseband because my battery life is absolutely amazing....but not worth it if my GPS fails when using it.

Thanks!

Im also rogers in Ontario using this firmware. I haven't had any issues with gps accuracy to date. I had a similar issue in Hamilton once using stock rogers eclair so not thats its alot of help but I don't think it has anything to do with ur change.

How do you find the battery life on this firmware? Mine is just to amazing. I flashed back to .435 until I know for sure the GPS isnt effected.

Battery life is alright. Haven't found it to be exceptional but a definite improvement over stock. The radio is definitely more responsive but I came from trips Rom so signal nd data speed doesn't quite seem as good.
