[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noah1017:
Hi,

I am currently using a Vibrant USA and I am running Bi-Winning v3 with the bullet kernel1.48ghz but i keep it at 1.27 max when I'm using it for most applications. I have been getting about a full 12 hour day out of a single charge while using Juice Defender ultimate.

First and Foremost I apologize if this question has been answered already, I did use all of the search tools described in the noob video :)

I have no complaints about Bi-Winning, I came from project-V and I have found both roms great and beautifully designed (with the trigger theme)

For my computer I am using a 27" Imac 2010 (osx 10.6.5 with current update) model with 8 gigs of ram and a core i7 processor. I recently found a program called the Winebottler. I was able to use this program to turn Odin into an Application that Mac osx can run. I am very intriuged by MIUI and CM7 as well as other roms such as Revolution rc1 however without knowing that odin will run properly I cannot try them. If odin messes up my phone install because Im not on windows then I could have corupt files that I could for that same reson not fix via Odin.

I was wondering if anyone has both operating systems or is a mac user with expierience in this issue. I have tried everything I have seen in other XDA formums telling me to use something like bootcamp or a disk partition (on my mac for dual os) but after several attempts I have not been able to get it to work at all. I would really appreciate any replies that might help me.

I was also wondering if the advantages in 2.3 would be noticable to someone who uses the phone for calls,sms,web browsing,video playback, verry little gaming(ocassional basic game like paper toss). I was also wondering if any of the 2.3 roms were fully working for everything but gps as I have a garmin for that.

One more thing, I once tried using rom manager to download and run miui 1.6.10 from project v but it gave me a hardware lock/rebootcycle wouldnt pass the vibrant samsung screen and no recovery or download mode was available. I know that It was totally my bad but that is my one expierience with flashing non edt roms.

have you tried heimdall it is a less buggy odin and it is for mac too...here is the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755265

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jneal9:
Yes, try Heimdall. I think it's the only native app that will work on OSX. I use it when I'm booted into Linux too.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noah1017:
Thank you

Thank you for the very quick response, I am installing Heimdall as we speak :) Hopefully i'll be on gingerbread by morning :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boystuff:
just be sure to follow all the instructions properly on any 2.3.4 install and you should have no need for heim/odin. of course theres always a chance of a random error. but once you get the cm7 initial kernel flashed youcan factory reset reflash from that. haven't had to odin back to stock and i've flashed cm7/miui and even tried the honeycomb 3.0 alpha rom. that was interesting. just take your time play it safe and go slow :)

as far as benefits go the aethetics alone to Me are worth the update to gingerbread. though i'm a pretty devout Miui fan the theming engine is gorgeous and the styles are slick.

Stability wise miui is good.

CM7 is... getting better

the Sgs II clone roms all feel solid and fast

and simply Honey is one many would swear by though i personally have yet to try it (really stuck on miui lol)

my recommendation get a few, try miui, simply honey and the sgs II clone (CM7 while awesome is still far from an excellent daily driver IMO) just flash one give it a whirl, titanium backup all your apps (not data) enter recovery factory reset, format system, cache, data, and datadata and flash the next one (fix permissions), rinse repeat till you find the one for you. No need to odin inbetween flashes. also rom manager when you enter it before using it to fix permissions set it up as 3.x to follow with teh version of clockwork recovery your using.

[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seboj:
I currently have CM7 and s2e installed with an ext3 partition on an 8gb c6. My Aria's biting the dust though, so I'm doing a warranty exchange soon.

I'm wondering what the best method is to change between the 2 phones, considering that I'm using s2e?

If I NANDroid backup my current setup, take the SD card and put it in the new Aria, and (after rooting and installing CWM) do a NANDroid restore, should I be good to go?

First and foremost, I'd like to thank Annex for sort of inspiring me to try and make some of these overscrolls. Use METAMORPH to flash this, not cwm.

I understand it a GB only function. I also understand that just throwing both overscroll png files inside the framework-res icon folder is not going to work either. I just would like to know if someone with skills could figure out how to make it work on a 2.2 ROM.

When I go to share a pic in the gallery to Picasa it goes to the upload screen for a split second then to a Google account screen asking to to create or sign in to a Google account. When I sign in using my gmail it says this account is already on the phone. I can log into Picasa via PC. Is it something I'm doing wrong or is it a bug? Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] xenx:
It seems to be a rather common problem, for at least the last year. I verified mine did the same as well. I'm looking at reasonable solutions, but none have been forthcoming.

Edit: It seems that as things currently stand, your options are to either install "Picasa Tool", create a second google account, or factory reset and try your luck again. It's apparently an issue with the google account setup, and since you cannot remove the default account your stuffed.

Thanks to hockeyfamily737, clearing the data and cache for the gmail app resolved the issue.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravynmagi:
I'm having a lot of wi-fi issues with the Galaxy Tab 10.1 that I haven't had with other tablets. I returned the first one because of this and the replacement is suffering from the same issue.

I can't use streaming music apps like Pandora or Tune In Radio for long periods, because those apps freeze up and it seems like the wifi is going to sleep after some period of time when the screen is off. The wifi sleep policy is set to never.

While I never see the wifi disconnecting, I do see the icon turning gray quite often. Not sure what gray means, I've even been able to download apps while the icon was still gray.

I don't really see any complaints about the wifi. Do you guys think it works fine?

Kinda on the fence about returning this for a third Galaxy Tab 10.1 or just returning it for a refund and hoping the Thrive is not too heavy for me.

I do like the tablet. But the wifi is just killing me. I really do like streaming music.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbdynsty25:
I would attempt to update the firmware on your wireless router before you swap the tab again...or replace the router itself. I've never had a disconnect on any of the four wireless access points I access daily.

I've tested with four different routers between my home and work. Unfortunately the issue has occurred with all of them.

This puzzles me. I've had two Xooms and two Transformers and none of them had this problem. Now I've had two Galaxy Tab 10.1s and both have had it.

I'm just having rotten luck with Android tablets I guess.

I'm having similar issues with mine, just assuming it is a firmware issue that will be resolved with time.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tabing:
The router can handle only five devices make sure you dont have more than five devices also turn off all the wifi devices like xoom etc unplug modem and router for few minute and then plug back modem after all the lights of modem plug the router then after your router restarted turn your galaxy tab on and put it in flight mode and then take it out of flight mode now the problem should be fixed. Remember donor turn your other devices on until you connect galaxy tab to wifi and surf and check how connection is now.

I have the gray wireless icon on my tablet as well, but I do not have wireless connectivity issues.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrsbelpit:
My icon is gray when I wake up the tab, then turns blue, but I do have it set to turn off wifi when it sleeps.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jokrak:
The one time my wireless icon turned gray was when I had no internet connectivity, but was connected to the wireless network. It turned out that my daughter had accidentally turned off the modem, so although the network was up, we had no net access. My opinion is that gray indicates some type of connection error.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lollee76:
You can try Advanced Wifi Lock (Free) app. I have not had issues on my tab, however I did on my TB and this app worked like a charm for me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muuhmann:
I had the same issue.

I reset my router's configuration to default and just set up the typical WiFi settings and left everything else at default.

Since then, no problems!

I believe it is due to some mysterious router settings. Because the day before i first recognized the WiFi issue, i played with the router's settings.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bradshort:
I've been noticing the increase of stupid questions for a while but more importantly, I am getting fed up with the aggressive nature of some of the users. So people post in the wrong section, move post with warning, end of.

Also if the ROMS were cross posted to FAQ by default then more people would end up there instead of using the search to find the ROM title and ending up at the DEV thread.

xda is getting a bad rep for their mods and i'm not surprised. . . .
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fllash:
Returning to the original question.

The prerequisites for rolling your own kernel are:

- A linux system

- Terminal Know-how

- A synched GIT (such as the Bravo CM7 branch)

- Patience

That is just for building the stock kernel.

The additional prerequisites for changing stuff:

- A text editor

- A set of OC/UV values (such as Eviolett's)

- Experience in the linux terminal - more than for just compiling the stock kernel.

It doesn't seem like a lot of work - Sync the GIT, chuck in a few values, and build it. In reality, however, there is a stack of other stuff to do. I have a fairly good knowledge of the linux terminal, but still spent a stack more time getting everything ready than I wanted to (hours, in fact).

As motivated as you may be, it ain't a walk in the park, even with a detailed set of instructions. Stuff is going to go wrong, and a lot of the time, problems differ from those prescribed in the instructions.

Having been there, done that (or more accurately, failed to do that), this is just my two cents.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I failed miserably.
