[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Hey, no need to apologize, I'm not the boss of anyone. What happens though as threads like this pop up is that people on bastard plans starting freaking out that they're missing something. Than after dozens of "yes it does, no it doesn't" posts people upgrade to more expensive plans and some don't see any difference. Why everyone's experiences are so different is beyond me. If I thought moving to a real 4G plan would get me consistently better results I'd do it in a heartbeat. But the risk of paying more for the same or less based on the experiences of others that went before me keeps me on my bastard plan.

This thread's APN

The default APN was very off and not stable at all, mainly jumping from 1 to 3 mbps. The Dev section APN stayed consistantly at 5ish mbps, and the last so far stayed at 9+ mbps
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapture Veteran:
I like to think I am rather educated in regards to how to root and all that. I just got my replacement Evo today and of course it is updated to 2.3.3. So I can't use unrevoked, but I was hoping to flash over to a older backup I made on 2.2 on my old phone.

Except, when I do the whole hold the volume down + power button and eventually choose recover, all that happens is a image of a phone and a exclamation point appears and it never leaves here.

I know in order for me to be able to use ClockwordMod I need to root the phone, which can't happen on 2.3

So what are my options? How do I flash over my old rom???? Even if it doesnt let me get back to 2.2 its still better than redownloading all my apps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dased14:
there is no root yet for the 2.3.3, their working on it. sorry
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapture Veteran:
so there is no way possible for me to recover without rooting?

I still have to do update the drivers on the phone (device manager, installing the unrevoked drivers...unless i need to be rooted for this as well)

so even then I still cant use the recovery option? whats the point of it? HTC doesnt want you rooting, hence 2.3 being stock on Evos, but yet they include the recovery option on their phones which you seemingly cant use...unless...you...root? im confused. Unconfuse me please
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r.storm85:
Rooting doesnt exactly let you use recovery.

The stock recovery from HTC is basically nothing.

When you do full root. It gives you the ability to install unsigned apps. That is what s-off means (security off). So the bootloader doesnt check to see what your installing is signed by HTC.

So therefore.

1. Root

2. Install custom recovery.

Now some automated root apps (unrevoked) do the whole process for you.

If you root by adb. You would be rooting and installing a custom recovery seperately, if you actually knew what the adb codes were and not just following a tutorial.

You can root and still have no recovery. Root doesnt mean custom recovery. They are two seperate things.

So even though the recovery option is there it is unuseable. Until you root. Then you can get a custom recovery...hope this helps :)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dased14:
At this time no. I think its more of a way to get you to buy the next thing from them. If devs keep making the phone feel fresh and new, how long would you wait to upgrade(just my take on it). I believe recovery is there for their developers and carriers developers(to add their bloat) again just my take. Give the devs here sometime and i'm sure they'll find a way to get root back.

Brought to you by the little voices in my head
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapture Veteran:
well thats not what i wanted to hear. any clue as to how far off unrevoked is to finally cracking this 2.3?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapture Veteran:
i truly hope so. ive been spoiled by CM7. I like to run juicedefender ultimate on CM7 during my work days where im not around a plug and ill be at over 85% on a 15 hour day. on stock HTC 2.3 with the same juicedefender settings running on the same 15 hour day, im down to 50% or lower sometimes. i can live without root for now. the biggest negative is I just cancelled the Sprint hotspot because of CM7.

can you even run the hotspot on stock sense if you aren't paying for it like you could on a root?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r.storm85:
No you have to be rooted to run either Sprint Hotspot or Wireless Tether.

No ota on root yet. But im sure they are working on it...

Help!

My phone is unable to connect to a network whatsoever - I can't make any calls, texts, or use data (only WiFi works).

I have a Captivate on Bell (phone from Rogers) which has been running great for 6 months. Last week I was setting up Widgetsoid (a power control widget) and changed the data toggle mode to Root Toggle. Since doing that, my phone disconnected from Bell, and has been unable to connect since then. I've tried everything I can think of for the past 4 days and have looked up the issue online, to no avail. I'm a noob!

I have tried:

-Hard Resetting

-Changing SIM cards: my wife's SIM has the same problem in my phone, and my SIM card works fine in her phone - thus my SIM is not the problem.

-Reinputting APN info

-Leaving battery out for one hour (one reported solution)

-Changing Network Mode from Auto to WCDMA only (another reported solution)

-Turning on & off flight mode several times (another reported solution)

I've had same problem before on S7. Easy fix, check you system/app folder and see if stk.apk is in there. If not, you can take it from other ROMs and put it in system/app then reboot. You should be good to go. S7 dose not have this .apk by default. FYI, stk.app is sim card management app, it can actually send and receive info from/to your service provider. I might be wrong but that's how I fixed this problem.

Everyone's phones run differently on different roms, but try out a couple of the recent Gingerbread roms if you can do without "sense", you'll gain a lot of functionality from the phone. Deck's rom, CM7, & Jaybob's have always run good for me on the Hero and there's a couple of others (Evervolv & OMFGB) that I never had a chance to try before I gave the Hero to my son.

***EDIT*** If sense is that important to you, Liquid Sense & NFX seem to be the most popular.

[Android Software Development] FreshFreddie53:
Hi there,

Is it possible to make a phone a controller for your tablet? I have a galaxy s2 and galaxy tab 10.1 - it would be great to be able to use my phone as the wireless controller...

Has this already been achieved? If so, please point me in the right direction...!
[Android Software Development] lambstone:
You'll have to provide more more information than that. What do you want to control?

Otherwise it's just like saying "I want a transport vehicle" and it could be anything, car, bike etc. You get my point
[Android Software Development] Vazguard:
What I figure Freddie means is what I've been looking for as well - to use your Android phone as a gamepad or otherwise for your Android tablet, similar to the SNES HD app for the iPad:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlcigMvkkoU

There is great support for exterior controllers like the Wiimote being used for emulators and games on phones and tablets, but porting this method of using your phone as the controller itself is a great way for people who don't already own/don't want to buy another accessory.

I would assume it'd be similar to broadcasting your phone as a BT keyboard, and then using various button mappings fullscreened to create the gamepad. If an Android phone can receive input from a device, why couldn't it broadcast it?
[Android Software Development] FreshFreddie53:
Indeed!

Why use a gamepad when i could use my phone!

I've recently run into a problem with my phone being recognized by my computer... basically it just doesn't work anymore. This happened after upgrading from Midnight ROM 5.3 to ACS Frozen 1.2. At this point, when I plug my phone into the computer, it only charges and does not enter into usb connected mode. On the computer I get a pop-up message saying that the USB Device is not recognized. After searching through these forums and others, I have tried uninstalling / reinstalling drivers, installing PDANet, switching USB ports, and Switching USB cables... All multiple times. The best I've gotten out of the process is immediately after certain tries, I am able to get the usb mode activated, but only once. When I try to boot the phone into download mode because I'm trying to upgrade to EF02, it is no longer recognized, and then when I do a regular boot, it is still no longer recognized.

Any help would be appreciated.

Your drivers crapped out or your cable is flaky. Try a different cable. Also turn on USB debugging and go into Device Manager in system in control panel. Go to the unknown USB device (may say Samsung Android) and hit update driver and let it search Windows update for drivers, will take a long time for all the drivers. Then reboot and should work.

I've found a temporary workaround by pulling the battery, plugging the device into the usb, starting it into download mode, and then replacing the battery, but thats not really practical for storage purposes, only for the one time install of EF02. I have used 4 different cables and reinstalled the drivers multiple times. I am going to try reinstalling the sdk and see if that helps, as well as searching drivers using Win 7 Device Manager.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Hello dev community :)

I am currently trying to build my own kernel / zImage, but for some reason it doesn't work, when I flash my zImage the SGS2 crashs at the bootscreen with the yellow triangle.

Not even the battery animation when charging while off works anymore *lol*

Here is what I did so far:

extracted a stock initramfs from a samsung stock kernel

got the Samsung kernel sources and extracted on my PC

got the codesourcery toolchain and installed it

edited the path to the toolchain into kernel/Makefile

ran

make c1_rev02_defconfig (as stated in the readme.txt of the src download)

set the path to the extracted iniramfs files in the config

ran

make zImage

It eventually tells me "kernel zImage ready at ...."

padded with 0x00s to the 8MiB size, .tar'ed and flashed via Odin

But it doesn't boot.

When I throw my zImage at the initramfs extractor script, I get the proper initramfs files dumped, so they seem to be fine.

Searched around this forums for two days now, found a few "zImage repacker scripts" but none work or clear up any of my questions.

Any hints on what I missed or did wrong are appreciated :)

And while we're at it, another question:

At new FW builds, does the actual kernel itself change too, or is it only changes in the initramfs? Because there is only one set of sources from Samsung.... so I assume the actual kernel stays the same and using the initramfs of the targetted FW will suufice?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designgears:
Why did you pad it up to 8mb?

also, when setting the initramfs source, did you set these to you uid you are compiling with?

CONFIG_INITRAMFS_ROOT_UID=1000

CONFIG_INITRAMFS_ROOT_GID=1000
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Hm, padded to 8MB as all kernels are (padded to) 8MB, aren't they?

Tried flashing an unpadded version too, still no go.

And yes, UID and GID are set to the ones my user is running as....

Close to the end of the compiler run, I get a "found 14 module section missmatches" kind of message - could that have something to do with my zImage not working? And how would I fix that?

Oh c'mon, it can't be that hard, so many people are making their own zImages.... what am I missing here.... :-/
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzor:
First of all, you cant just use a stock initramfs image, shove it into another kernel and expect it to work. There are kernel modules in there which need to be updated first before you do the last "make zImage".

Try this:

0. make sure your config is correct. you should copy c1_rev02_defconfig from inside arm/ to source_root/.config and do a "make oldconfig". Then adjust your configs as necessary ("make menuconfig" etc)

1. "make modules"

2. "INSTALL_MOD_PATH=~ make modules_install"

3. goto your home dir and pick out the modules and put them into the path of your initramfs files (/lib)

4. finally, make zImage.

5. theres no need to pad to 8mb. that is an urban legend
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
OK, did all that.... still no go.... :-/
