First step would be to confirm Rom Manager works with SGS2 .

Second step would be to read the post you rooted from the bit where it says Rom Manager does not work .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] intruda119:
Im pretty sure sgs2 isnt compatible. Sgs2 should use cwm app.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
You need to root the device first before you can use applications requiring root privileges.
[Galaxy S II General] bruflot:
No ****.. It was already rooted, and you would have seen that if the second picture was working :mad:

And it wasn't only rom manager that didn't work.

Anyways, I fixed it by re-rooting it :P

Edit: the second picture is working!

Y U NO READ MY POST?!
[Galaxy S II General] stoney73:
Wow, attitude much? These people replied trying to help you correct your mistake. Be grateful.

As for the second picture, all it shows is that you still had a stock kernal installed. Read the instructions properly next time.
[Galaxy S II General] intruda119:
Why are you using Rom Manager instead of the CWM app that comes with the recovery. I would do a little research before flashing anything with Rom manager.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
You haven't rooted the device.

BTW I can still tell you the details of the bit you blurred out: -CL303619
[Galaxy S II General] bruflot:
I installed ROM manager to install CWM

Edit:

There was no instructions :p

And sry, didn't mean to sound ungreatful ^^

:D

I didn't know if I should hide them or not :(

Edit: How on earth did you manage to read that :O

Alright people, I installed Lite'ning about a week or two ago, which gave me root.

And now, I flashed back to stock.

And since it says root@Dell101, I thought I still had root :(

Sorry, this is my first android device so I have no experience at all with this :'(
[Galaxy S II General] stoney73:
The best bit of advice you can take from this thread is this: dont use rom manager with the sgs2, tbh it seems to cause more problems that it solves.

Its not fully compatible.

Rather Use the cwm app that installs with chainfires cfroot kernel.

Hi iam on stock 2.1 is any way to set wallpapers for defy in portrait. I.e like iphone
[Defy Themes and Apps] e4steveb:
The only way I know of setting wallpapers up in portrait is to download (from the Market) and use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper. there is a bit of setting up to do with this but once you know how it works its easy enough.

Hope this helps.

Crap... Sorry I forgot that 2.1 can't do live wallpapers :-/
[Defy Themes and Apps] bikerabhinav:
Yes it does, Live Wallpapers do work on 2.1.

you'll find the app here: http://www.appbrain.com/app/multipicture-live-wallpaper/org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture

I tried to unroot my phone using superoneclick today which resulted in removal of superuser app... It was successful... Then i tried to reroot it... At this attempt it was successful again but when i rebooted the phone, the phone was stuck at boot screen with a vibration every now and then, i guess there was some Force Close occuring, at this point i unrooted it again succesfully and i could reboot to get phone up and running normally... The phone is working fine now, just that my language was changed to some that i could not understand... I wish to root the phone now, any ideas?

Edit > the problem turned out to be unusual... after re rooting the phone via superoneclick, the phone used to get rooted but superuser would not get pushed on to the phone. Thats why the applications were force closing at start up hence causing the boot loop. So after rooting it, I manually installed superuser from market. This solved the problem.

:-P

you could be at serb default language...

if you can remember the icon/shortcut going to "locale and text>select locale" and change it to your language.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] anziclone:
I did change the language back, the problem is that i need to root the phone again... But rooting results in boot loop... So i need to unroot it again when boot loop is occurring...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ephraim:
Just back up your data and flash.. For me that's what i would do.. Don't know about you..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] konx777:
what kind of looping boot did you found exactly?? already got Samsung glowing logo ??

how if you got looping boot then get into recovery mode?? is there any error ??

and how you did unroot while you having boot loop ???
[Galaxy S I9000 General] anziclone:
Well, i get the samsung glowing logo and i guess the phone and other apks are loaded and causing some force closes... So i never get to see my home screen... Though the android system is running... I can run adb commands... Thats why unrooting at that stage works...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] anziclone:
Well, the problem was solved by installing superuser from market immediately after rooting and then doing a reboot...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] konx777:
now, i cant connect to adb. the device always not found :confused:

my plan was to apply unroot at Samsung glowing logo, just like what u did. But sadly i have dealing with "device not found" first.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] crushvic:

I've been looking into purchasing a car kit for my HD2, and before you guys start yelling out Brodit, I don't want it. I came across this mount:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Car-Windshield-...754946?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item33691bb282

but it says that it doesn't fit TMobile HD2 (US). The EVO 4G has close dimensions to the TMOUSHD2, so I figured this one might fit:

What do you think?
[HD2 Accessories] johnerz:
Just ran the tape over my EU version and it will fit - yours is a fraction longer but will still have lots of room - go for it :)
[HD2 Accessories] chvvkumar:

I searched the thread titles and didn't see anything, that's why I made this thread. Anyway, that's good to know, because I was going to buy the HD2 one and dremel it, but if I can get the EVO one without any mods, even better.
[HD2 Accessories] chvvkumar:
Actually, I am very very pleased with the fit. It fits like a glove and the neck itself is pretty sturdy and does not flap around on rough patches on the road. Also, the whole thing (mount+charger) is pretty cheap and I am very satisfied using it.
[XPERIA X8 General] Senapone:
Does your X8 charge itself when connected to PC via USB?

I'm using 2.2.1 Stable from Lizypen (based on MiniCM 6) and even if the topbar and the unlock screen says "charging" battery's percentage don't grow up.

File transfer works correctly.

There's some option i missed up?
[XPERIA X8 General] Senapone:
Come on, noone ever tried to charge its X8 via PC ?
[XPERIA X8 General] zvorkapic.os:
if you choose charge from the menu shown when you plug in in your PC it charges. (does not mount SD Card)

sometimes also when i choose connect (mount SD) it also charges but sometimes (most of the time) it doesn't!
[XPERIA X8 General] fifo171:
he's on froyo :)

try plugging in the cable when the screen isn't locked :)
[XPERIA X8 General] Senapone:
I already tried it... :(

Can't understand why even if it says "charging" it's actually not able to charge the battery.

Fifo171 are you on stock 2.1?

If not, and if you are able to charge your x8 via pc, which rom are you using?

Hi there people,

I've been using CM7 since beta 6.0 was released. I've seen how has improved greatly, but now I have a big problem and I don't even know if its only me or for anyone else.

Since flashing RC1v2, My defy is not showing Market App anywhere. And if I try to install any other release over it, market keeps missing.

I've tried to flash SBF Nordic again, and Market returns again... but whenever I get RC1v2 or Newer Nightlies, Market disappears.

What can I do to fix this? Has it happened to anyone else?

Thanks!!

PS: Sorry about my english level.:D
[Defy General] simon211175:
I've not got this problem and I'm on RC1v2. Assuming you've flashed the google apps update, the only thing I can think to try would be to log in to Google Talk. Probably unrelated, but I read a while back that people couldn't install from the market until they did this...

Otherwise, think you need someone more knowledgable than me, sorry :/
[Defy General] xatornet:
Thanks for your answer!! I've flashed several googleapps versions, but none works. It's like flashing changes nothing on Operative System. Haven't tried logging into Google Talk, and then flash Googleapps.

I'll flash SBF Nordic clean, Install RC1v2 and do the trick... I'll update this post when finished.:cool:

EDIT============================================================================

Ok, Now Market Appears, I have done this steps:

I have...

1 - ...Flashed clean SBF Nordic Froyo 2.2.2 , wiping cache / Data Before and After flashing the file.

2 - ...Restarted phone, config Market, and downloader some apps, just to make sure it works.

3 - ...Rooted phone, Installed Snd Init 1.4.2 apk, and rebooted phone.

4 - ...Entered Snd Init, selected Recovery, Wiped Cache / Data and Install RC1v2 zip. Rebooted phone.

5 - ...Initialized phone, checked that Market wasn't there, and rebooted again.

6 - ...Entered Recovery again, and flashed googleapps zip.

Once every step was done, Market reappeared. Don't know what the problem was, but, It's fixed.

For anyone else who needs help on this:

There are specific versions of google apps for specific CM phones. Check the CM website.

Also, Try:

wipe data+cache

flash cm7 (dont reboot after)

wipe data+cache

flash gapps (now reboot)

delay the google aps install tho, id wait untill you set up the wifi first lol :p

[Galaxy S II General] djsaad1:
I have a friend that is reporting his new sgs2 is working on H with tmobile in the states and getting constant 7mbs down.

How can that be right? Is it possible tmobile is testing out the att merge and they are letting users on att towers?
[Galaxy S II General] konman795:
Whoa, that's weird... I'm actually getting my SG2 from UPS today and I'll test it out with my T-Mobile sim card that's currently in my Nexus S. If I can get HSPA with my T-Mobile sim, that would be pretty cool!
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
There's no SGS2 with T-Mobile U.S.' AWS bands. It's hardware that's incompatible, not software. He's probably talking about the Galaxy S 4G.
[Galaxy S II General] Furry Atom:
He's bullshitting you or he's confused about what phone he owns. You can't magically make HSPA work using the AWS band on a device that doesn't support it.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Or his friend with the T-Mobile U.S. SIM in his SGS2 forced the phone to roam on AT&T and he's being billed $15 per MB for data. Let's hope he's not watching movies.
[Galaxy S II General] konman795:
Yeah, it was too good to be true... lol. It definitely doesn't work, I'm only getting edge with my T-Mobile sim. I knew better but wanted to believe it so badly.

The phone doesn't have the radio to work on T-Mobile's bands. No dev in the world can create a physical radio where there is none.

Him being a dev doesn't mean ****. Hardware restrictions are hardware restrictions. He's either insane, or like Barry said below he could be roaming on AT&T. If he is then he will enjoy a multi thousand dollar bill.

My S2 is working on Tmobile. M-250K

But getting only 2-30kbs down.....

something is def wrong.

I also brought 250L CDMA version.

Going to take it to verizon tomorrow see if i can get it to work here.
[Galaxy S II General] jlevy73:
the unbranded sgs2 does not work on TMO's 3/4g network. Only way to get 3g/4g in the US is to get ATT.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Wow.

SGS2 on T-Mobile US - 250K sounds about right for EDGE.

Sensation on T-Mobile US - 1MB is ridiculously low so something's wrong.

SHW-M250L on Verizon - You can roam with an account from another CDMA carrier but, unless something's changed, Verizon is a closed network meaning you can't bring your own equipment.

Good luck.
[Galaxy S II General] Furry Atom:
Enjoy your CDMA brick. Verizon won't activate non verizon devices.
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
So, I just flashed this ROM yesterday.

Full charge over night took phone off charger around 7ish this morning. Did a quick 30 minute run/walk workout w/the Cardio Trainer recording (tracking w/GPS), all while listening to the FM radio. I have had two phone calls totaling about about 7.5 minutes. Maybe 35 text messages in and out. I'm in a strong 4G area, I do not have my phone set to automatically get email. I just turned off the facebook hourly update, just noticed I hadn't done that yet ..... my phone is already barking at me that I need to plug it in.

With the exception of my run and listening to the radio this morning I really haven't done much .... I downloaded a couple of apps and tweaked them, but seriously 3.5 hours of battery before it's telling me less than 10%.

Any suggestions?

I did not clear the battery stats, in my past experiences that really didn't do anything to help (but that was w/the Eris).

I'd love to have GREAT battery life that everybody talks about. Anybody using this ROM have stupendous battery time? Not sure what has sucked the life out of this.

Thanks
[Thunderbolt General] migueltherocker:
I'd say it's the GPS that killed you.
[Thunderbolt General] scriz:
same thing for me on bamf gb 2.1. i was at 20% after 5 hours of use
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
IDK about that, I've gone out for the same 30 minute walk/run w/the battery on yellow (on stock rooted) and the radio going and it hasn't killed it. I think maybe it's part of it, but IDK it's all of it.

I've put the phone on strict 3G, going to totally KILL it tonite and turn it off while charging.
[Thunderbolt General] icbeer:
Have you tried recalibrating your battery since installing Bamf 1.8 stripped? Maybe it's not a problem with the ROM, but with the battery calibration.

Sometime at night shutdown your phone and then hold volume down and power to boot up HTC's nice bright white bootloader. Leave it alone until it dies (the phone cannot die properly while running Android, since Android will shutdown the phone when it thinks the battery is low, rather than when the battery IS ACTUALLY low). Plug in the power cord after it dies, but leave the phone turned off. It should take a few minutes for the orange light to turn on because it's so dead. Leave it alone until the green light is showing in the morning. Then start it up. This will get the proper 0% and 100% points for your battery stats. Also check what apps are killing your battery. I was having a problem with Google Maps for a while until I cleared data on it.
[Thunderbolt General] athorax:
I have a similar problem. I will take it off the charger and after a few minutes it will be down around 97%. No big deal. I will set it down and walk away for at most 15-20 minutes and come back and it will be on like 80%.

After that though the battery life stabilizes and I get 12+ hours with moderate use
[Thunderbolt General] lu270bro:
Running AOSP CM7. I have had my phone off charge since sometime around 6 am ET this morning and at 50% now at 11 pm. This has kept me kept me from getting an extended battery. You should try it.
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
How is the stability on this? Is it good enough for a daily ROM? (not that it's not "good", I know their work rocks) - I don't know if I want a "testing" phase ROM. Hope that makes sense?
[Thunderbolt General] lu270bro:
3g to 4g handoff is the main complaint I hear, but I'm not in 4g area. Have driven through a 4g area and it seemed fine to me. Put it this way, this has been my daily driver for over a month now. And GPS gets near instant lock btw. I don't want to hijack the thread so I will just say that I NEED my phone to work and if too many bugs were present I wouldn't be running it.

as ive said i must of lucked out with a solid battery as ive never had the horrid battery life most claim on the net. even with 4g on all the time i get well over 10-12hrs with medium/heavy usage.

a suggestion for a solid kernel is the 3.3.7 lean kernel, don't overclock too high either. i think that's why alot of people have the crap battery life and random reboots.

if you live in an area that doesn't get good 4g coverage id switch to 3g only mode if i were you.
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
appreciate the info, don't think you're hijacking at all :-)

use wifi whenever possible

switch to 3g only when youre not in a 4g area and you need to use the internet

What is using up your battery because if it is the Cell Standby or Phone idle I have a fix for you. I had always had great battery life until last week when it started draining as you describe in your post. I tried everything to get back to where I was but was not successful. I ended up pulling out the 4G card and reinserting it. I was instructed to do this by a Verizon tech. I though he was wasting my time but it fixed my battery issue and I am getting great battery life on BAMF 2.1 and also BAMF 1.86
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
That's interesting, I wonder what that would do and why it would work? These phones do like to keep us on our toes, eh?

I've made the switch to CM as of yesterday so I'll be playing around w/that for a while.
[Thunderbolt General] xbostonIrishx:
I love that bamf stripped down ROM! I had a lot of trouble with the 1.8 though, so much so I had to switch it to something else. I finally got off my a$$ and flashed the MR2.5 and Bamf's GB, which was awesome too, I had some charging issues, and MMS didn't work. I could live without the MMS , but the phone was taking a really long time to charge, I was told the lean gb kernel was the fix for this, however I have jumped over to CM and I am going to be driving this one for a while.
