[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poofyhairguy:
I think another reason we lack more ROMs is that most ROMs for phones are a mix of the stock OS and standard Android. In fact, many of the builds are just different balances of that phones stock OS. For example, the Thunderbolt has builds that are pure ASOP, builds that are ASOP mixed with HTC's Sense, and then some builds that are basically the default Sense build with tweaks added or carrier programs removed. Seems like a ton of ROMs, but they are all variations on the same theme.

We lack that because quite simply our developers have taken almost nothing (outside of some drivers) from the B&N build. Our stock ROM is so limiting compared to phones, that there is no advantage to try to make a ROM that blends the stock B&N with vanilla. We go straight to vanilla.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Okur90:
Ok this is the issue, when I connect my Desire to my pc, it does not recognize that it has been connected to a pc. It acts as if it's been connected to the wall charger. :( I have searched the forums and can see that other devices had this issue but never a desire.

I have RCMix S v2.0 running but I get the same problem with Oxygen and CM7 nightly so I am guessing this is not a rom specific issue. I have tried multiple USB ports, downloading HTC sync, restarting the phone and pc and tinkering with the settings but no luck. I don't want to send the phone back to O2 since with a custom rom, they will say the warranty is void. :(:(

Any suggestions on how to fix it?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Okur90:
OK I think the usb port is faulty. When I pressed the cable really hard it recognized it.

[Xoom General] kilo94:
I am deploying to Iraq very shortly, and for a pretty decent length of time. I plan only taking my XOOM, decided against a laptop. My understanding is that there will be internet service where I am heading, so I plan on getting it installed in my little hooch. I will also bring a router to setup a wifi connection, and herein lies my questions:

1. How do you setup a router if you don't have a PC? I might be able to borrow a friend's laptop to set it up, is that my only choice.

2. Is there a recommended router for the Xoom that works better than others?

I'm not a newbie when it comes to computers/technology, but this will be my first deployment without a laptop. Appreciate any help y'all can provide.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
You dont need a PC to set up a router. You dont even need the internet to use a router. Just connect to it with your xoom as if you had internet.

You just need to find the default gateway address to enter into the xoom's browser when you are connected to it. There you can setup whatever you need.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
@OP

Why do you need a router? Are you limited to only one connection that you have to share among several devices?

As said, all routers have a web interface that's accessed via its IP address. Depending on the brand, it's usually 192.168.x.1. You do need to have a device (not necessarily a PC) with a wired RJ-45 Ethernet connection to config the router. It's possible to config it via wireless, but there's a good chance of getting locked out if you mess up. It's not recommended.

If you are a tech newbie, configging routers should not be on your to-do list, as networking can be a can of worms. If you don't have to have one, then don't.

If you do buy one, stick with the well-known brands like Linksys/Cisco, Netgear, D-Link, etc. Vendors typically have a newbie-friendly line that's supposedly easier to set up, although I can't speak with firsthand experience. For example, Cisco has the Valet line easy setup, and the E-series for tech users.
[Xoom General] mr_wrong_0:
He will need one to set up a wireless network so his Xoom can use the internet.

+1

For what you're doing any of the basic models would work. The configuring that you will have to use the IP address interface for would basically be setting a password (recommended) and troubleshooting if you find yourself without internet connection.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
So just saw the post on the leak of the new mr2 software and radio. Has anyone had problems with it yet? I want to upgrade the radio and then go to an mr2 room ( i think thunderrom was the only one i could find that had ingegrated it) but i want to make sure it's all good to go first. Also would be nice if someone could post the radio link cuz I already lost it lol. Oh and would it be better to wait for gingerbread release since its supposed to be out by q2 and Im gonna do that anyway or should i do this since it's probably gonna be delayed?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
Wait Im more confused now... I thought this was a radio that worked for froyo not gingerbread. Is this just a more improved version if the previous gingerbread radio leak?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
Alright after reading up some more it appears that this is the latest radio that will work for either gingerbread or froyo is that correct? Because the perfect storm and gingerbamf both use the mr2 radio but there on two different software versions. and unless Im wrong the perfect storm is still froyo
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jschecter:
it will work on all gingerbread based roms, but only SOME froyo. I think PlainJane works (double check just in case). I just jumped straight to GB to get this radio
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azturbomini:
It works on both but only on newer froyo releases released in the past few days or so. There is a thread on the full ruu that explains this. Sorry I'm not at a computer or I'd post a link. I think it was posted by chingy or jcase...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patdroid1:
easy answer this radio works with both. however it will not work with the froyo our phones came with or with the recent fail OTA update. It works with the newly leaked OTA update (MR2) which is still froyo but with an updated base. It also works with ALL the Gingerbread ROM's based off the gingerleak.

I've been running since perfect storm 1.5 was released and it runs flawless. for fun i have flashed some of the gingerbread rom's and it works fine except for the usual gingerbread bugs that are still being worked on.

hope this helps
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
Thanks for the fast replies everyone that helped a ton! One last question should I update my radio or install the new Rom first? I've seen it both ways and also with a flash, battery pull, and then straight to hboot but which is best?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patdroid1:
doesn't matter...i find it easier to boot into recovery and flash rom...pull battery and boot in bootloader to flash radio and good to go...

it's just easier that way cuz if you flash radio first you gotta delete PG05IMG to get into recovery (which means pulling sd card and putting into adapter for computer)...or you have to fully boot into your old rom which will no longer work and then boot into recovery from there.

good luck
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jetfire_R$:
How can I tell if I successfully installed the new MR2 ruu.

My TB is rooted

Here's what I did: I restored my Stock Rom. I replaced the other(MR1) file with the one that I downloaded from the leak post. I turned off the phone. Held vol - and power. That got me to HBoot, then it asked if I wanted to update. Clicked yes and it did it's thing. Rebooted, wiped data, cache, dalvik. Installed The perfect Storm v1.5. It didn't brick so I think it didn't take.

How can I tell if the phone is running the new radio?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILMF:
The devs think the bricking issue is related to Hardware, not the software or radios. Read up on it. There are some things you can do to mitigate the risk, but the possibility is still there. You are running Froyo I think (PS 1.5?). MR2 will run that til you are ready to move to GB.

First of all I am using:

Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100

GINGERBREAD.XWKE7

I would like to root my device to use Chainfire 3D (to play THD games) and other ROMS

What would be the easiest and most stable way to root in order to use a variety of roms and upgrades? I am afraid to 'brick' my device and I was reading through chainfire's updated kernel thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 but got confused with some of the terminologies and the number of files available for download.

The Lite'ning Rom v1.3: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1095274 seems simple enough to use and uses XWKE8.

I would also like to know if it’s easy to revert back to stock after the device has been rooted. Is it necessary to keep wiping your device and backing it up when installing new ROMS or reverting back to stock?

I would also be very grateful if someone could explain some terminologies regarding Kernels, Odin, Superoneclick any other general info would be appreciated!

basically I visited the forum where they were discussing a file called build.prop on the system folder on in the dell streak

my question is they were actually modifying a lot of the entries in the file to boost 3g and wifi

what I would like to know if anybody in this forum or anybody out there with knowledge of android phones can define for me the entries I will post below

wifi/3g performance:

ro.ril.hsxpa=2

ro.ril.gprsclass=32

ro.ril.hep=1

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=8

ro.ril.enable.a53=1

ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1

ro.ril.hsupa.category=5

do any of the entries of actually boost wifi or do I have to look somewhere else in the build.prop file

I'm just looking to boost the radio antenna just a little bit batteries not a concern to me

this forum is given so much to me I would thank you very much for your help

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheManii:
Has anyone actually done benchmarks with each of those?

Personally I consider them snake oil since:

: Copying tweaks of that nature is often counterproductive, you need to figure out what is helpful for your specific phone/network

: Do you even know if your rom supports it? I'd assume it would work on cyanogen since that's where it originated (Though granted, i DONT know where ril sits in the software chain)

: What are the tradeoffs/is it worth it? What if it's faster by needing more cpu time/battery. And how much exactly?

: Are they already enabled by default? some values have defaults if they not explicitly defined/redefined.

It reminds me of the tomshardware article where they benched the tweaks of turning off 'page files' while on an ssd.

instead of speeding up windows, it CRIPPLES it on certian drives (as in a normal hd would likely be faster then that SSD + tweak combination)

Many of the other tweaks in streakdroid have been tested (and obviously since it's only for the streak it's valid on the streak) and are more worthwile then not using it

or it's completely optional like prefmod since it speeds up IO a great deal but isnt stable.

If someone wanted to do a through benchmark on those prop items the process would be something along the lines of

0. (Reinstall rom and fac reset to make sure you have a clean slate)

1. benchmark (MULTIPLE TIMES)

2. add in 1 prop and reset multiple times to make sure it takes

3. benchmark (always multiple times)

4. remove prop

5. benchmark again to make sure results match 1.

6. repeat with a new prop

7. try multiple tweaks

8. benchmark

9. benchmark

It's not particularly difficult work, just tedious benchmarking dozens of times

often times bad 'tweaks' keep getting reposted because noone bothered to test that they did anything

AFAIK, There is no modem file you can flash. You have to apply the OTA update to get it. There is currently no way to pull the modem off the phone, and what is in the OTA is not a complete modem file and cannot be flashed in odin.

Check out this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14644392

If the guy's PIT reading is correct, we should be able to pull an EE4 radio for you that could be flashed with Odin.

I'd be happy to pull and post, but I think there's a large risk of losing radio function for an unknown time if the concept is wrong, since there's nothing out there to correct it with. The risk of flashing with Odin would be entirely on you. :eek:

Hope that's more helpful than not.
[Verizon Droid Charge] californiarailroader:
It helps, thanks! I'd forgotten how hard Samsung's were to flash radio's, it's so much easier with HTC phones! If you or anybody ends up being able to do it, that'd be awesome! I assume I can't just flash the EE4 update over Gummy's 1.5 ROM to get the new radio, or can I?
[Verizon Droid Charge] californiarailroader:
Too late, it's already here ;) :D If the mods want to move it, they can, no worries!
[Verizon Droid Charge] distortedloop:
Actually, it's not any harder on Sammies, in my opinion, it's just we don't have a released radio to flash. Odin or fastboot flash, not too much difference, other than the hassles of getting Odin to work if you're on a Mac.

In theory, you could modify the update file to just patch the radio and not do the rest. Also, since it's a patch, you have to have on the phone what it expects to be patching or you'd end up with a big mess if you bypassed that safety check in the updater-script.

The problem is that stock recovery won't run it once you mod it because it won't pass the signature (we have the 3e recovery, the old v2 didn't check) check. I think I read somewhere that CWR wouldn't run it either.

It's a hassle, but the best thing right now would be backup with Titanium, flash stock ED2, then apply the EE4 update, then flash your Gummy, restore your backup.
