[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dynamicbot:
Hi there, I think I may have messed the phone up a little, such as this MMI error message which comes up so I can't use speeddial, or any other # code for that matters, also I can't disable call forwarding, and a few other things.

This must have been the result of rooting, etc. Is there an easy way to get my phone back to how it was (basically how it would be straight from the manufacturer, no root at all, just exactly how it was when I first bought it brand new?), bearing in mind I have also flashed it 3 times?

Cheers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoney73:
it might help if you said what you flashed it with? Details.

But if you are just wanting to flash back to stock, here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

Read, and follow the instructions. They are very clear.

"Hi there, I first of all rooted my previously straight out of the box T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 using the xwkdd_insecure.tar (with Odin and SuperOneClick - I am a complete noob by the way, but this seemed to work after I followed a YouTube video), so that I could then unlock it to use 3 Mobile (in the UK) which I am on - I had bought this phone brand new and sealed from eBay (someone's unwanted upgrade). I then went on to using the free ChainFire sim unlock app, however I soon discovered that after all my phone can't have been locked in the first place as I just got a 00000000 code, never had to enter that and my sim worked having not previously tested it... Then I went on to flash it by using this file first - I9100XWKE7_StockKernel.tar - after seeing another YouTube video to purely debrand it but this only got rid of the yellow ! logo which appeared after rooting it, that is all.

So I then went on to using this method http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1064894

in order to debrand it of all T-Mobile stuff, such as the T-Mobile logo and trademark tune which came on after switching the phone on, and get it like a standard sim free/factory unlocked phone if you know what I mean. I used this file as mentioned in the link - I9100XWKDD_I9100XXKDH_I9100XEUKD1_HOME.TAR

The latter part of the guide goes on to entering #272*<IMEI># or something like that, but I have tried that all of the other alternatives and all I get is "USS code running" and like 2 seconds later the error message

"Connection problem or invalid MMI code" appears. I basically can't enter anything in my phone dial with # or * or whatever. What is wrong?

I have also noticed that whenever I call someone a message saying "Conditional call forwarding active" appears, but then proceeds to make the call okay. I have tried to disable and fiddle around with the call forwarding settings, phoned my network provider, but again, error messages come up.

What exactly is wrong and how can I fix it - I am a bit of a noob with all this....? It is surely something to do with all that stuff I have mentioned. Please help me as I honestly don't know how to go about fixing this. What is the most straightforward thing to do which will stop these messages?

Last of all, I flashed using the following, my phone seemed to be auto-rooted as I never had to root again? I9100XWKE7_I9100XXKE4_I9100XEUKD1.tar

Thanks in advance."

as tittle. any launcher that can divide out category same as lg home? i wan put and sepereta all d applciation.... any idea?
[LG Optimus 2x] novlazar:
Hi gliew,

Adw launcher can be used. Here you can put your apps in catalogues. You just have to scroll left or right. It's not the same as the stock, but it helps, I think.

I hope I understood your question right.
[LG Optimus 2x] Keltek:
Try GO Launcher Ex. It can make some sort of folders for you.
[LG Optimus 2x] gliew_87:
thanks for the reply. adw, gonna try it later. fo launcher, erm folder, not my choise, i wanna make a category actually. seperating all d application instead foldering.
[LG Optimus 2x] gliew_87:
any other launcher?
[LG Optimus 2x] somemadcaaant:
Catagories in the app draw?

That i use - Go Launcher has this plus seperate category for downloaded apps, arc launcher u can sort apps via last run, most used, alphabetical etc.

I think the SGS2 launcher has this functionality also.

-smc
[LG Optimus 2x] Litderose:
You can try "All Apps Organizer Free" (see here).

No need to change the launcher : I use it to replace the drawer.

You can add categories as you want.

I like it.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Kermode:
Let me write it in math:

Navigon + HTC Desire language set to English = You can only chose navigation voices in english (even though a lot of other languages are installed)

Now, I want the phone menus to be in English.

But I'd like to be able to chose another navigation language in Navigon.

Anybody know of a way to make that work?

The langauge files are there in the install, but trying to rename them doesn't work - they must have embedded some sort of langauge setting in the data files to prevent them being renamed.

Changing the language of the phone works, but I don't want to do that (why doesn't really matter)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikaia:
Hello.

I woke up yesterday, dig into my pocket tried to turn it on... battery was dead so I plugged it in, and then ever since, the power button is unresponsive. It showed no previous signs of flakiness. But I've since spent the last 2 days digging and searching for ways to salvage. I see that Cyanogenmod has a nice trackball wake feature that could solve my problem. I download the sdk, and try to unlock the bootloader with fastboot, but fastboot FAILED with status read failed too many links (on windows 7). I tried on a Mac and it also failed for similar reasons. ./fastboot-mac oem unlock

... ERROR: usb_read failed with status e00002ed

FAILED (status read failed (No such file or directory

So from what I've read, pretty much all flashing of roms require either a power button and/or fastboot (because of the radio?). Is there another option I'm missing? I was able to root the phone by downgrading from 2.3.4 to 2.2.1 using the passimg method and using superoneclick. So now I have a rooted froyo phone, with no power button and can't seem to access with fastboot.

Any assistance would be great. I'm just trying to salvage the phone and resurrect it.

Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikaia:
Ok, I think I've done something wrong. I used ROM manager to download and install cyanogenmod 7 but now my phone hangs on the X. I let it sit for like 30 mins. Then pulled the battery and booted into recovery mode and reloaded the passimg file from before. It is currently back to froyo. What, if anything can I do? Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
You're never going to be able to use fastboot, because unlocking the bootloader requires you to use the power button to confirm that you wish to unlock...

Make sure you wipe before you flash a new ROM.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikaia:
Using the ROM manager I selected to wipe everything and then it reboots into the triangle exclamation point. What is the method to flash without fastboot or a power button... it seems even the ROM manager needs the power button. What am missing here?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
You need to install a custom recovery. You can do this from ROM Manager - don't use Clockwork 3.x
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikaia:
Thank you so much! I was able to push it through that way. Now that I've got CM7 on it I'm good... but now I'm left wondering if there are better ROMs out there... guess its time to play. Thanks again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikaia:
Ok, Now of course... there have been issues. Just getting it up and running had me a bit too excited. Now it seems that the screen is fading in and out... while 'sleeping' and usually when I unlock the screen the power off/airplane mode menu comes up. I 'think' the power button has regained some limited function... and is constantly pressed perhaps. Because now when the screen does remain asleep for a second, I can push the power button and it will wake. But when the phone is on, if I push it, it doesn't go to sleep. I've done some searching but haven't been able to find an app that disables the power button on the N1.

Any thoughts on what I could do, because this is quite annoying. It just flashes off and on and off and on. Thanks again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
The power button is on a separate board connected by a ribbon cable. You could just disconnect the cable?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You could just buy the button with a flex cable, and fix the phone...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Yeah, that too - lol!

[Verizon Droid Charge] rohitgarewal:
Hi there,

I'm looking at switching over to verizon before the unlimited data feature goes away, and of all the phones the Charge is the best one out there so far.

However, coming from the Galaxy S2, android 2.2 with an old touchwiz just wont cut it. Anyone working on Cm7 or MIUI ports?
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
No CM7 ports available that I know of. I couldn't care less about MIUI, so I wouldn't know if there is anything available, but my guess is no, there isn't.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pestilent:
You should take a look at the GummyCharged ROM in the Dev section. It's a cross of ASOP and CM code with a handful of the Sammy apps. It's very nice and the Dev is constantly improving it. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116086 )
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
The Charge has been out for about 2 months now, and from everything I've seen, porting CM/AOSP to any device is something that takes several months to do. Add in the complexity of a dual-RIL setup with one of those being a completely new technology, and you're looking at something that will likely take 4-5 months at a minimum most likely, unless some experienced AOSP/CM porters pick up the Charge, because at the moment, there are only a handful of people that have done any development work here, and no one has taken on porting AOSP/CM before.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rohitgarewal:
Is GC built on 2.3.4, or 2.2?
[Verizon Droid Charge] rohitgarewal:
Yep, thats what I would figure, but I was wondering if any one has even started on it. I've currently got the GS2, and even though it launched in the UK about 5 weeks ago, there is already an alpha of MIUI up...

Thanks for the info!
[Verizon Droid Charge] rohitgarewal:
bump.

Any word on MIUI? Any awesome developers willing to take up the 'charge'? Cheesy pun intended :-)
[Verizon Droid Charge] MtnDewMan:
MIUI on the Charge sure would look nice I think.
[Verizon Droid Charge] fifiknw:
I am working on a beta of miui for the charge. I will be taking Info from the fascinate, Since they are not far apart.

I will need donations due to the only charge I can use is my girls and I dont want to have to restore it and debug it.

My girl would go nuts lol.

But you can go here for the beta and donate on homepage for me to get a Charge to tinker with. Please Support :)

Yea... I read that as "Give me money and ill buy a Charge and make MIUI for u guise". He's got 13 posts and 1 thank which doesn't exactly instill trust...
[Verizon Droid Charge] xdadevnube:
Please deposit money in my Nigerian off-share money account. I have MIUI in its finished form, but I need to ship it to the states. When I get $500,000.00 I will have enough money to send it via helicopter to the nearest shipping yard. I cannot upload files across the internet because my ISP only lets forum traffic and traffic to my Nigerian Paypal Donation account. I'm in a quick bind because my house is going to confiscated by Rebel forces from Somalia. They are land pirates.

I think I hear them now, quickly, help!

Seriously though, if you are developing MIUI or have those skills, I suspect you will be able to secure a Droid Charge. Also, please provide some proof that you are a dev or are serious about deveopment.

I don't know of any developer that has asked for donations directly, especially before a project was started...

[Verizon Droid Charge] MidnightNinja:
This is very shady.

This "Miui" as it were is just gummycharged with Gummy crossed out and Miui written in with crayon. Extract the file and you will see the "coincidences" between it and GBE2.0

There aren't any viruses in this (AFAIK). Just a ploy to get money.
[Verizon Droid Charge] fifiknw:
No I don't even care for the money. I just want miui for the charge. So I'm trying to get it on there. That's why I took it off my sites so I can sit down on my day off tomorrow and play around with things. So have some faith. Do not send donations. Better?
[Verizon Droid Charge] anoninja118:
I've never understood people's fascination with MIUI, I never cared for it... either way it isn't gonna be fully functional yet as we haven't even sorted out the RIL for CM9/ICS

[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
hey guys so i have this phone and i like it, not awsome all the way, but its great so far, astonish performance and an OK camera, anyways heres what ive noticed and i dont wanna send it back before im sure its a problem:

-When i view its screen turned on from different angles the color hue slightly changes a bit to blue, this is most noticeable in bright images with alot of white level for example, is such thing normal?

Also is there any particular thing i should look for to know if its working properly or not? ive heard alot of ppl had problems with the screen, what are the steps that i need to take to check if mine has or does not have the same problems.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II General] qwerty warrior:
ill be getting my S2 tomorrow but from what i understand this is normal on the phones ive owned in the past

all the screen issues i heard on the forums are

black spots

and yellow color from the left side of the screen
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
hmm thanks i dont have yellowish colors or black spots on mine, when u say the phones u owned in the past, were they all AMOLED? because AMOLED screen is suposed to avoid this kind of crap unlike LCD
[Galaxy S II General] Mittaa:
True ... when screen are turned and seen from different angles, the color hue slightly changes a bit to blue and that's normal.

But on my SGS2 no yellowish colors or black spots.
[Galaxy S II General] kreoXDA:
OP, the slight bluish hint is normal.

Also normal is some moderate banding on plain gray background.

Also normal is moderate yellowish left side. To check how severely your screen is effected, switch OFF orientation sensor, display a full screen gray image on about 25-50% brightness, look at it in portrait orientation, than flip the phone 180 degrees, so it is upside down. Do a few flips, you will notice the difference in colors on the left and the right sides. Most people do not see it by just looking at the image, they need a real precise side by side comparison like what I just described.

All these issues in moderation are normal for Amoled. What is not normal is dead pixels or damaged screens underneath the glass, but these issues are rare.

[Droid Incredible General] brando56894:
I think I may have fried my Incredible last night. I was flashing or backing up my phone last night, I don't remember really, and fell asleep with it in CWM. I woke up some time later to find my phone in my bed in CWM and it was scorching hot. I took the battery cover off and took the battery out and went back to sleep.

About ten minutes ago when I woke up (yea I'm lazy lol) I tried to boot into CWM, nothing. I tried to turn it on normally, nothing. I plugged it into the charger and all I got was a blinking red light.

Anyone know if the battery is just fried or if the whole phone is fried? If it's just the battery I have an extra one at my other house about 90 minutes away (which I'll be going to in a few hours).
[Droid Incredible General] rosedillinger:
Hey I'm kind of a noob myself. Never had this problem, but which part was the hottest? You might be able to put in a new battery. Maybe you can order a new one like the extended battery
[Droid Incredible General] brando56894:
I don't remember, I had taken ambien lol I remember I had stretched out, felt it in my bed and it was hot, saw it was in CWM, then took the battery out and passed back out. IIRC the battery was pretty damn hot. I had this happen with my OG droid but it was only scorching hot for a few minutes and it was fine after, possibly because the case was aluminum and acted as a heatsink.
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
The red blinking light indicates that there is not enough battery power to boot up the phone. Leave it on the charger for about 20-60 minutes, and if it doesn't boot up then you may need a new battery-
[Droid Incredible General] brando56894:
Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Edit; that fixed it! Any idea why it would get so hot in cwm?
[Droid Incredible General] rosedillinger:
What all are you doing on CWM and how many hours. Brightness is also a factor.

I'm glad you saved your Incredible, though lol.
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
I'm not sure, like the user above pointed out it likely depended on what you were doing. If it was something that involved constant CPU usage then that would cause the battery to heat up since it'd be draining more power than if it were idle.

I really don't know the workings of CWM well enough to give you a good answer :rolleyes:
[Droid Incredible General] brando56894:
Thats the odd thing, I wasn't doing anything it was sitting there idle while I was sleeping. I have no idea how many hours it was on (could have been 30 minutes or it could have been four hours).
[Droid Incredible General] GnatGoSplat:
Just a guess, it's probably because there's no power management going on, so everything's going 100% and loading down the battery.
[Droid Incredible General] Amphibliam:
CWM seems to drain batteries even while charging, and causes my phone to heat up a lot. I don't know the cause, only that it happens.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slbenz:
I can tell you that using Rafpinga's kernel on the Hyperdroid build will force it into a bootloop and the ROM won't work. What I found that makes Rafpinga's kernel so special is on Cmylxgo's Desire HD(2) build it gave me the lowest stand by battery drains on my phone between 2-3mA. And without any peaks more than 11mA.

how long is it supposed to take to boot ubuntu.img?

ive been sitting for 10 minutes on the blue screen with it saying "this can take some time..."

but how much??
[Streak 5 Android Development] profclean2000:
It is probably already booted. If you are still seeing a blue screen you have missed a key step (but your doing great if you are this far!)...You need to open AndroidVNC viewer (or your favorite vnc viewer) and configure it as directed in the directions. Address is Localhost, port is 5900, password is ubuntu. Then select the connect button and you will be off to the races! Did you install busy box yet? Just make sure to read the directions, I got hung up there in the beginning also until I went back and read it again.

So in the terminal after typing:

su

cd /sdcard/ubuntu

sh ubuntu.sh

Now press the home button and open and configure the VNC viewer. You only need to configure it once. After that it will remember everything and you can just open it and press connect.
[Streak 5 Android Development] scdsone:
yeah it had booted even though it said "this can take some time..."

thanks its all working now

i never overclocked as my streak wont work with setcpu

but gimp still opens up quite fast

thanks again
[Streak 5 Android Development] profclean2000:
No problem. You can change the screen resolution to fit perfect to your streak if you open the file manager in ubuntu and go to root/init.sh and open that with leafpad or gedit and change the resolution to 800x480. Overclocking it makes it insanely quick. I can open openoffice in under 5 seconds. Also if you run the update manager you can update to 11.04 no problems though it takes about 8 hours lol.
[Streak 5 Android Development] mid_life_crisis:
I assume you mean the card that is easily accessed, not the one that requires dismantling the phone.
[Streak 5 Android Development] profclean2000:
Yes, I should have been more clear.
[Streak 5 Android Development] scdsone:
800x480 is better but i could not use it all the time but its ok to mess about with

For the rest of you tightwads (like me) OverclockWidget seems to be working okay for me.
[Streak 5 Android Development] profclean2000:
Yes gladly, the best one in my opinion is free from the market. It is called "Android Terminal Emulator" made by Jack Palevich. If you search Terminal Emulator with the search function in the market it is in the first few results. :)
