[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henrylam:
I would advise you to the a hard reset, however do your backup before resetting it.

If it doesn't work, probably your battery has encounter issue with the internal sensor of the cpu, I recommend you to send in to the service center to request for a change of battery or do the disconnection of battery by yourself.

if your tab still in warranty time, my suggestion is, bring to samsung service center. use the warranty. :)

Hi guys, thanks to the great tuturuals i've succesfully rooted my device :) But i have a question. Im still new to the hole android and rooting, so please bear with me.

After i flashed my XWKE7 kernel with the CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KE7-v4.0-CWM4 kernel, i followed the tururial to get rid of the yellow triangle. I flashed origial kernel back on my device (I9100XWKE7_Nernel), however my device is still rooted... So why should i follow the rest of the tuturial to flash the cf_kernel with CWM?

Isnt it better/more stable to keep running it with the original kernel? The root is still active, so why should i flash the rooted one back with CWM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zuignapje:
bump

really nobody? :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxz0O0:
The (for me important) difference are these:

1. While the phone is not booted yet, you can still access superuser through adb. This is important if you screw something up and the device is in a boot loop.

2. You have ClockworkModRecovery, where you can take backups, install updates from sdcard etc.

I don't think the original kernel is more stable, because the custom kernel is based on the original.

I just tried looking the original Nova up on the web market (Which should show all apps/games) and it's simply not available. It seems to have been pulled from the market which is weird as Nova 2 HD is available. Perhaps they're trying to push their latest game and now only have Nova available on their own site.

On a slightly related side note, how the hell do you activate/unlock the terminals in Nova? I loved the game but no combination of presses or swipes will activate them:

P.S. Apologies for jacking your thread :p

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ambrosial:
Hey all,

I have some questions pertaining to the flashing of my Galaxy S. I'm currently running Gingerbread 2.3.4 on CM7-NIGHTLY-42, Baseband I9000XXJVK. I'm planning to install a stock version firmware from samfirmware. The problem is, the only regional version that has 2.3.4 support is the European one.

So my questions are,

1. Would it be ok for me to install the European version stock firmware (I9000OXAJVQ) eventhough I'm outside Europe?

2. Would there be complications arising from installing stock firmware outside my own region?

3. What are the appropriate steps to install the European stock version (I9000OXAJVQ) from my current CM7 NIGHTLY ROM?

4. Will my existing CWM get replaced by something else or what?

Thank you in advance.

Regards.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cynk42:
Hi, below is the method for instaling a FULL PDA to you're phone(it's quoted from rahulrulez guide for MIUI), if you follow this steps you will flash with a stock firmare by you're choice(in the example below is the froyo PDA but you can use any).

Edit:

- To answer your questions, about if it's ok or not... I don't have an answer but I don't see any problem working with any firmware....

- My advice is not to use a stock firmware because is not running smooth at all... try another custom rom if you don't like CM7

[Galaxy S II General] r1_2010:
Hi Guys,

I have a meteor (ireland) carrier brand galaxy s2 csc is KD1(met).

I successfully flashed over the ke7 XEU firmware I found by searching these forums.

HOWEVER... after flashing... in kies I get the following message :

This version of the device cannot be updated.

I've read up more and found out that it is because the version of the CSC that I have does not match what kies would be expecting. In this case I would imagine it is a multi-csc XEU.

How should I proceed if I want to make this a full retail generic galaxy s2 that is correctly identified by kies ? Shoudl I reflash with the pda again and with a specific csc file (as I used to do on my older galaxy s 1).

Any advice is much appreciated.

thanks

r1_2010
[Galaxy S II General] psp888:
Just flash with the XEU KE7 file. then do a factory reset for the CSC to change.

KE7 is the latest version for XEU so it will show as latest firmware
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Its not the CSC its product code and other codes that may change .

Basic rule is ODIN flash = no upgrade via KIES .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Not the case mate. Odin flash and everything works normally if you're not changing CSC's for the device.

To the OP. Do a hard reset of the device and then flash the firmware again.
[Galaxy S II General] r1_2010:
Thanks guys for the suggestions. I did a hard reset and reflashed however I still have the prob with the CSC being identified as KD1(met) , baseband XXKE4 and kernel XWKE7 which is fine... with the exception of the csc...

There was only a tar file in the firmware that i downloaded and extracted (which is expected). I remember with my older galaxy s 1 to change the csc I had to actually enter a code and manually change the csc to multi xeu...

Do i need to do something similar with the S2 ?

-- r1_2010
[Galaxy S II General] kar111:
dunno if this help but you can change the CSC using this code after youve flashed

type this into your dialer - *#272*<your IMEI>#

and then select the one you need
[Galaxy S II General] r1_2010:
Thanks I that but when the preconfig menu opens I can see a 'Sales Code' label beside a textbox , prepopulated with 'XEU' (correctly).

At the bottom of the screen there is an 'install' and 'cancel' options.

I click install but it gives the following error 'Must be THREE chars'

But I cannot edit the text of the sales code , select it or anything else (there is just XEU prepopulated in that text box).

Any more suggestions ?!

I must be missing something....
[Galaxy S II General] r1_2010:
Ok I've tried flashing again and the same prob... Would our be worthwhile flashing ke2 XEU first and then going to ke7 ?!
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
All i can say is i know some say that but posts are littered with cannot update via Kies after stock flash.

On SGS1 and SGS2 i have failed to update any stock rom even with the original CSC in place and thats after many tries .

I keep trying to use a third party SMS app, because I'm hardly a fan of the stock! It seems, though, that I can't send a message from a third party app - I've tried both ChompSMS and GoSMSPro, but both will fail upon attempt. Almost instantly too. I have the logcat from Chomp here https://gist.github.com/1058515 if anyone's interested. I've been poking at it a little, but can only stare for so long when I don't know what I'm looking for really.

I searched briefly and didn't find much anywhere on this matter, perhaps I'm doing something wrong?

Thanks for any assistance

**EDIT** I sort of figured it out... They don't handle the +1<Phone number> That was tacked on the front for the country code. Not sure why that is or if there's any remedy without deleting all the +1s

This morning I woke up and my phone was working fine. I had 2 updates in the market and I hit update all. After that my phone rebooted and it does the Verizon LTE animation and the LG splash screen but it goes into a black screen. While it's in the black screen the phone vibrates and the battery heats up. I tried going into recovery but it did nothing.

so you said you went in to recovery and it did nothing? So you couldn't even get recovery to load? and are you stock or rooted with clockworkmod recovery?
[LG Revolution] isoutsider:
I can't even get it into recovery. I hold the volume keys and power buttons and it just does the boot up then black screens.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Just hold down the volume down button, then hold down the power button also. Continue to hold both through the lg splash, then it should be into recovery.
[LG Revolution] AndroidCraig:
I had the same thing happen to mine 20 days after I got it. I had to have it replaced under the warranty, which means they had to ship it next day air.

I've heard of a few other people with the same problem.
[LG Revolution] isoutsider:
Finally able to get into recovery and wipe data but now phone starts up and its black screen with the status bar across the top. It's acting like it has no home launcher.
[LG Revolution] AndroidCraig:
Unfortunately you are going to have to get a replacement from VZW. If you are within the 14 day period you can just swap it at the store. otherwise you have to go through the Warranty folks and make sure you have them ship it to you overnight.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Do you have Clockwork installed?

If so, this is an easy fix.

If not, well, it's a little tougher.

The gist of what's happening is easy to find by connecting your phone while it's booting to USB and running "adb logcat" on your desktop.

That will give you the boot logs and the exact reason for what's happening.

If you're running my decrapified ROM, you may want to switch back to the stock ROM. Go to my stock NANDROID thread, download that, put it in the right folder on your SD card, then boot into clockwork and follow the instructions in the stock nandroid thread.

Make sure you clear data also!

No need to call verizon :)
[LG Revolution] isoutsider:
I tried connecting the phone to the pc and got nothing. computer couldn't even detect it. I called verizon and got the phone swapped under the warranty. First thing I'm doing when I get the phone is putting the recovery on it. Would have made this process much easier.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Yep, having ADB access is a surefire way to get your phone up and running again.

But, just for future reference, LG has a failsafe firmware updater that will always work, no matter what state the phone is in.

It's not super easy to set up, but it will fix a phone no matter how broken the software may be.

There's a thread in the Dev subforum with the files and instructions, but the gist is that it's accessed by holding VOLUP+POWER with usb plugged in, then plugging in the battery.

It's successfully recovered 3 phones so far.

It may not be the easiest way to get the phone back, but it has a 100% success rate :)
[LG Revolution] isoutsider:
I'm having no luck with my new replacement I got from vzw. I've tried rooting it with S1C using both exploits, I've tried rootwiki's manual method and none of them work for me. Anyone got any tips?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Well... you could always try my "toggle ADB" trick.

Turn usb debugging on, then back off, then on again.

Then follow the rest of the rooting instructions, but skip the whole exploit section.

(Basically, remount /system as rw, push su, chmod su, and push superuser, and install busybox)

Ironically, the phone doesn't actually NEED any exploits at all-- it's pretty unlocked to begin with!

[General Questions and Answers] Kermagod:
Hello all,

Just wondering.

I know there's a load of task managers etc that kill apps, but:

Are there any apps that you can use to keep an app alive and not close in the background. e.g. If you press home, the built in memory manager won't kill it eventually.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] WiredPirate:
If you are using a task killer this feature would be called "whitelist".
[General Questions and Answers] Kermagod:
Thanks for your reply.

I'm not using a task killer, but android automatically kills tasks after a while if in the background.

I'm basically looking for an app that will bypass this, for apps I choose.
[General Questions and Answers] FearedSkills:
Get an app called WatchDog. It's a task killer that doesn't mindlessly kill your apps (Which actually waste more battery for those apps that instantly reboot.) and you can whitelist apps.
[General Questions and Answers] Kermagod:
Got watchdog, but this doesn't do what I need. I need the option/ability to be able to keep an app in the background indefinitely, unless I choose otherwise.

I think I may have found the answer in another post. Paul22000 has stated that it's built into Android and the only way around this may be to get it built into a custom ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] Salpula:
It might help if you explain which app and why, there may be another way.

[General Questions and Answers] Kermagod:

[General Questions and Answers] evilstewie23:
it will work properly its just that android will close it if it feels it is using to much memory in the back round some of my apps stay on all day as long as it doesnt consume to much space
[General Questions and Answers] Kermagod:
But what if I don't want android to close it...? I simply want android to ignore it.
[General Questions and Answers] milest0ne2:
I don't think that's possible. If Android decides that you app needs to be closed (e.g. cause it's idle, eats too much memory, etc.) it'll shut it down, no matter what.

You can try to build your app as a service, as services run in the "background" and are less likely to be killed by Android.
[General Questions and Answers] Kermagod:
This is not possible in App Inventor, which is why I'm looking for a work around.
[General Questions and Answers] frunns:
Haven't found a solution?

I'm trying the same thing. My Optimus 2x kills Opera and Spotify faaar too fast. Common use case: Surf->Home->Send text message->open Opera, then it has to be restarted, not loaded from memory. I'm using AutoKiller now, which is supposed to be able to keep apps alive if I manually set a variable in it (oom), but it's very temporary so I'm guessing it doesn't work too well.

I recently upgraded to the EVO 3D which has 1 GB of onboard memory, and I rarely have this issue (coming from the EVO 4G).

The only time that I will get dolphin browser to reload is after a phone call (happens most of the time). Why does a phone call pretty much kill everything? Is it so that there is always memory for the phone call? I would think 1 GB of ROM would be more than enough for that, perhaps Android tweaked this in ICS.
