I've received the new Kies update, but Kies still states that last firmware for my phone (France Unbranded / GT-I9000HKDXEF) is Froyo 2.2.1. Official Gingerbread is due for the next 15 days, as since April.

So I think that's all this discussion is pure speculation.

For all we know, it's also possible that IceCream will be out before official Samsung 2.3.4...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] EmJay13:
I am running 2.3.3 upgraded from Kies. I recently received the kies update and at that point it stated that I had the latest firmware for my phone (France Unbranded GT-I9000). Although, today it has nothing where it usually says up to date. Don't know what that means, found it interesting. Also, I thought that there was a rush to push 2.3.4 out to fix the wifi security issue. It was/is very easy for someone to grab passwords off a phone. Google: Android WiFi security loophole
[Galaxy S I9000 General] EmJay13:
Never mind, Kies looks normal today. Firmware is up to date :(
[Acer Iconia A500] tatoori:
Yo all!

Connected the A500 to the TV via HDMI- no probs!

But is it possible to put the tablet screen off once you've started a video ?

Kind of like switching displays to 'external', 'external + LCD', 'LCD only' when you hook your computer to an external monitor? Just to save battery!

Or will 3.1 bring some similar functionality?
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
I would hope so, if not a towel might be a good accessory to pick up.
[Acer Iconia A500] xdachrisandroid:
There is no possibilty to turn of tablet screen while connected to hdmi tv.

Perhaps the devs could brew something, but i dont think so.

Hi Community,

I'm looking for a very clean and battery friendly ROM.

I've tried a lot ROM's but now I'm just ****ed up with flashing new ROM's etc, hope you guys got some advices for me.
[Desire HD General] 4tifjaved:
Android revolution hd
[Desire HD General] johnathonrobinson:
Agree.

Just flashed the latest one. Really fast, smooth and great!
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
HydrOG3n MOD which is cm7 boat is what I'd recommend at present, Battery life is the best I've had
[Desire HD General] nm8:
Can I ask how long does your battery last and how do you use how phone? And what other ROMs have you tried?
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Not very scientific i know but here goes, Had been using CM7 and would get a full days use (unplugged at midnight and plugged back in about 21:00) with approx 40% battery left on an average day with HydrOG3n unplugged as normal fairly normal usage and had 60% left at end of day. Typical usage involves checking twitter periodically throughout the day, a bit of gaming (15-20 mins) some ebook reading (<60 minutes) checking facebook once or twice and a bit of web surfing (45-60 mins over the day) odd texts and two to three short phone calls (less than 10 minutes total) and a bit of foursquare with GPS on, I leave wireless on all day although I'm normally only attached at home, obviously your mileage may vary. I Have tried other ROMs specifically Miui, LeeDroid and AHRD but I hate SENSE and didn't get on with any of them so cant give any definitive comment on Battery life.
[Desire HD General] cdong:
i recommend android revolution too

it's keep the original UI, and make a lot of tweaks to make your phone run smoothly
[Desire HD General] chardd23:
arhd is the best!
[Desire HD General] rwells813:
Miui is quite brilliant and awesome as well as cm7. And they use eclair or froyo BL. So that's a plus

sent from SGS Captivate 2.3.4 with CM7 or MIUI using Escapist or TKglitch
[Desire HD General] cordell507:
MIUI or CM7
[Desire HD General] tmh:
I'm using LeeDrOiD HD myself and I'm very happy with it. So smooth and no issues (for me at least, some are experiencing battery drain with wifi on, but for me, it's at about 2-5 mA in standby). Great "community" around it, lots of support, great battery life. On a normal day, I usually have the screen on for about 2-3 hours (moderate use I'd say) and disconnected from charger for about 18 hours. That leaves me with about 50% battery when I go to bed.

I'm very satisfied :)
[Desire HD General] heslo.rb26:
Another vote for LeeDroid. Great ROM, great support and great bloke!
[Desire HD General] pockobg:
TB Fusion 1.4 + unity v3 kernel by far the best for me
[Desire HD General] badgerbeard:
I've tried ARHD, RCMixHD and LeeDroid, but have settled on Virtuous Unity. I run it with Juice Defender and now charge the battery every other day or even longer rather than every night! I run gmail and my work outlook exchange activesync on push settings, background data updates on facebook and play cut the rope a bit! Best Sense rom I reckon, especially if you want Sense 3. Activesync used to drain the battery like a vampire on the other roms, no problem with Virtuous Unity.

Also my wife has a DHD on stock UK rom and this is the first one that beats her for battery. Put juice defender on her's too, but mine is faster with the o/c daemon and looks much better. Can't persuade her to let me root and flash her for some reason, perhaps I should tell her I mean her phone ;)
[Desire HD General] reaper90:
Can not compare to other ROMs, but ARHD is just awesome! Looks like stock ROM but feels a lot more smooth.
[Desire HD General] HamsterHam:
I like/use CM7 :D
[Desire HD General] MacDegger:
I use Leedroid. I looked for a clean, lean, fast and smooth ROM and found it in LeeDroid's rom. Works perfect with the sense 3 lockscreen, too (the combination of lockscreen and my own app, AppGrouper, make for the fastest applaunching experience I know of since the old PalmPilot days :P).
[Desire HD General] wwfc:
Beatmod gingersense, speedy, clean great battery life. Looks good, sense 3.0 lockscreen aswell, best rom I've tried yet. Yet to try leedroid will have to check it out.
[Desire HD General] Paradoxxx:
I couldn't agree more with this!
[Desire HD General] haelmchen:
i am using arhd since 2 month. and its just awesome
[Desire HD General] fishykipper:
Ive been using LeeDroid for a few months now. Its incredibly quick/responsive and the updates are quick and perfect.

3.1 update for 10.1v GT-P7100

I emailed Samsung South Africa concerning the update and they confirmed that they will be updating to 3.1, please see the email reply I received from them, Well done Samsung South Africa for your prompt reply, I got a reply within 12 hours :D.

Dear Ian Harper

Thank-you for contacting Samsung Electronics.

Your reference number for your enquiry is: ##########

Kindly note we will gladly assist you with your query. Therefore we have confirmed with our product specialists and they did confirm that the 10.1v has not been discontinued and they also have confirmed with our product specialists and they did confirm you will receive a message via the software loaded on your pc stating when the upgrade is available. However we are not able to confirm the launch date of the 3.1 firmware as yet. Once the upgrade is available you will need to take the unit in to a Samsung service center so they can

assist you with the upgrade. Please be advised our service center details are located on our website under

the support tab.

Hi redhat37

Noob question:

"...you will receive a message via the software loaded on your pc stating when the upgrade is available"

I'm not aware of, nor did I receive any software with my GTP7100 10.1v that is loaded on my pc that will notify me as stated above, do you perhaps know what software samasung is talking about in their e-mail to you?

Regards
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] redhat37:
I think they mean on the tablet itself, as these devices receive over the air updates (OTA) and the tablet will notify you when an update is available.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aSeeker:
To get the OTA update you need a Samsung Account on the device (Settings -> Accounts -> Add Account).

The 10.1v doesn't come with the Samsung apps - therefore you can't create a Samsung account - therefore you can't get OTA updates...

If you're comfortable with flashing a custom ROM - then http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1155023
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Skinner1008:
Well on my 10.1v, under "settings" -> "about" there is a "system update" feature. It seems to be connecting to some source on a regular basis to check for an update. Suppose that is where the update notification will come from...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aSeeker:
All of the Samsung info about updating the tab - states you need a Samsung account.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] redhat37:
I saw on the broadband forum vodacom has the update and is testing it they will release it directly to the tab updates when they are done testing, rumors are mid august.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aSeeker:
They've probably gipped one of the 10.1v ROMs from XDA and are rebadging it ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] T.A Blet:
I think so too, that Samsung link is for the 10.1 not the 10.1v
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aSeeker:
That's because Voda are supposed to be owning the 10.1v support - until they dropped it like a hot potato for the plain old 10.1 model.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Skinner1008:
This update procedure seems to be for the P7510.

I guess I'm hoping that the update for the P7100 will be available at the source where it connects to to check for updates. At least Samsung claims in the e-mail to redhat that they will be making the update available for the P7100.

Hello folks,

I installed the following rom today. Knowing that its a developer rom I realy wanted to try it out. And its working like a charm, but...

now i got 1 problem.

I cant get into the boot menu anymore.

Normally I had to press (power + volume down) to get into the boot menu. Its not responding anymore when i press those buttons.

But the power button also reacts completely different now.

Before I had to press the power button shortly to start the operating system. Now i have to hold it for a little while (which is of course very good, prevents from accidentally starting your device when its for example in ur pocket).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1040121&highlight=sense+3.0

Any ideas how i can still get into the boot menu?

I got s-off and hboot data++

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SDR2010:
Hi

Try Backbutton and Power or pull the battery and test it again whit power + vol down.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roooii:
Pulling the battery out seemed to do the trick. Any idea how come? Do i have to pull out the battery everytime i want to go in boot modus now (as some sort of protection) or was the system just stuck?

Anyway thanks a lot!

Edit: Yes it seems that i have to pull out the battery everytime now. But the operating system seems to be starting a looooot faster.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SDR2010:
i have the same Problem whit my Device- If i make it S-off i come never in my Recovery- Only whit (Phone On) Powerbutton > Reboot > Recovery - or - Pull Battery
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] status_six:
So you can't reach bootloader from phone off by using the volume down and power buttons pressed together and held for a few seconds - without pulling the battery first?

That's odd.

I think this standard entry to bootloader should remain the same regardless if any rom you flash, as flashing roms doesn't touch the bootloader at all.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanefletch:
Sounds like it might be fastboot doing this - Settings, Applications, Fastboot tickbox.

If checked, I see the same behavior as what you've described here.

If I take the tick out of the box, booting takes longer, but I can get into recovery/bootloader every time.

Hi dear friends,

i have rooted my phone and installed Android 2.3.3 Original with kernel version of 2.6.35.10-g997575f.

There is no default tun.ko module in /system/lib/modules and i searched alot for suitable tun file, but for each file when i type :

$su

[Grant super user]

#cd mnt/sdcard

#insmod tun.ko

i got this error :

insmod: init_module 'tun.ko' failed (Exec format error)

1) is this error for my mistakes in commands or the tun.ko file is not suitable ?

2) i found 2.6.35.10 tun.ko file here :

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13586304&postcount=5

but the magic version was : g0956377

and for mine : g997575f

what is the differences ? it does matter ?

3)i found in htc developers the kernel 2.6.35 but they did not mention any thing about magic version, can i compile the tun file myself with this kernel ? can you give me some instruction or articles about that ?

Thanks alot !

[HTC Desire S] hoyler30589:
Hi what you do is unlock using the xtc clip and then on the goldcard created u put a generic htc image that u can extract from exe of this forum and then enter bootloader again with card in and the bootloader will then initiate the "upgrade" to generic software for you.

If u not sure theres a guide in the desire s forums.

Ive done it this way and im running generic software

Is there any way of removing or clearing the recent applications from the sidebar when you hit the task switcher button? Even if I go into Advanced Task Killer and terminate all programs, the list is the same.

It would be great if they would simply put an X over each window thumbnail for you to close it.

Also great would be the ability to never show specified apps in that list.

Ideas?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ravynmagi:
It's more a recently used programs list, like what you see on the Windows Start menu, rather than a task switcher or manager.

I don't think you need to change your kernel. If you can find the source for it - you can compile the module. The description of how to compile is somewhere on this forum (don't remember where exactly). Though first you should check this module: try mount manager and force loading of modules in it - this helps...

how do i can know if i can add a module of nls_utf8 or i need recompiling kernel?
