[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
Yes.

1) The controls are on Asus Transformer, which I owned before returning for SGT10.1. The end result when enabled is this: you can slide your thumb(s) in from the edge inward and a popular menu appears. It remains until you lift thumb from screen. It is a half circle of controls that include back, forward, refresh, as well as, browser address line, tab switching/adding/closing, and settings. It also has a bookmark ribbon button to access the bookmark view and management page.

2) in general discussion a member reported getting the new Touchwiz update Friday. No one else has seen or received it yet, however that user confirmed the options are there post update.

If search on Asus Transformer browser review, you may find a video or screen shot. This makes it very easy to navigate the browser controls without stretching those thumbs too much.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] xManMythLegend:
Oooo... yes I have the touchwiz rom and love the quick controls. Easilybest part of the browser. I misread your post as an update would turn it off. I almost cried. Thanks for clearing that up.

Im on prl 60675 and need to update to 60676 or higher.

I need to do a manual update and I'm non rooted.

Anyone know how I can do this without the auto update in settimgs.

Thank you
[Epic 4G General] nikon120:
Well there is a thread in the dev section on doing this. You should look there. If it requires root and you don't want to root, then I'd suggest either calling Sprint or bringing it in to a Sprint service store.
[Epic 4G General] stormglove:
That thread doesn't require root just a computer and downloading a program on it.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
I would suggest 11114, its in the thread in the Dev section here.
[Epic 4G General] pcmedics911:

Can you tell me the name of the app if one exists that does not require root?

Also, what are you referring to with 11114? I did a search in dev forum and nothing comes up with 1114.

Thank you

Ok i went ahead and rooted it thanks to the new oneclick mod for clockwork and superuser apps. made it easy.

so the 11114 is a prl, app to install the prl? not sure what it is or used for.

and now that i'm rooted, would it be possible to download the prl 60676 (sprint) as a zip file then install it that way via the recovery / hboot menu?

Thank you for your help!
[Epic 4G General] pcmedics911:
whosdaman ok your attachment is a prl got it! so this would work on sprint and since im now rooted can i used hboot to install via zip or do i still need to use a windows program to do this?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiphoming:
Hi,

I have tried your update, but it is still no Chinese handwriting input in the system setup.

Best Regards,

Patrick
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typci:
I also can verify that the Chinese handwriting input is missing, and the fonts zip doesn't fix it. I installed it through CWR. Do I need to mount the system folder first maybe?

Please fix this. I rely on the handwriting input to get through the day. If I see a some Chinese character I don't recognize, I use the handwriting input to search my dictionary. Without the handwriting input, I will have to switch roms, and I really like Prime the best.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typci:
The Chinese handwriting input is also not available in Revolver's rom. How can I get it back? This is extremely important. Does anyone know if the WW or TW roms have it? The Chinese rom has it, but it doesn't have google apps.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiphoming:
Yes I have also tried the resolver rom, it is also missed.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typci:
Thanks, I also have gpen for handwriting input. But that's not the point, I want the Asus handwriting input. I really liked it. There has to be a way to get it back installed. What APK is it installed under, or is it embedded in the operating system? It is not a font that is missing, but the actual input method missing? Is it possible the latest update from Asus removed it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiphoming:
I think it is missing in the version of US. It must be included in the TW and WW version.

Hey, yiphoming, this is completely off topic, but I noticed you are from Hong Kong. I'm going there next week. I heard they don't speak Mandarin there, that they speak Cantonese, and don't use simplified characters, but use traditional. Is that true? I don't want to have to negotiate prices in English. I like it better when I hear the natives argue over the price first so I know I am getting a good deal. I have to go there to change my visa.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiphoming:

Yes we are using traditional characters.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alazarin:
Hey guys. After researching many possible smartphones in the market right now, I am going to go with my first smartphone ever and possibly the best one right now (in my opinion): the Samsung Galaxy S2.

However, I live in the U.S. in which I do not think the SIM-capable unnerfed galaxy S2 will ever be coming out here.

Anyhow, I was hoping people who have bought the unlocked version of the S2 would be able to help me. My questions are as follows:

1) Which online vendor is the best place to buy an unlocked version of the S2? I have been researching many possible sites for the past few months. It seems NewEgg.com, Amazon.com, and Expansys-usa.com are most mentioned contenders. The question then becomes… which one to buy from? Who to trust? Anyone have experience in this arena?

2) From several reviews online, it seems people worldwide have been getting unlocked S2s with different starting languages/manuals. Are they all the same? Are there any fundamental differences in hardware or settings? If so, which one is best? It seems there are different versions with various configurations, such as with/without NFC. Hmm...

3) My main carrier in the U.S. is AT&T. What would I need to do to experience compatibility with this network? I would like to get HSPA+ (~ 4G speeds as claimed by AT&T, so to speak). Is there a special SIM from AT&T or tweaking within the phone I need to do to achieve this? Do I have to tell notify AT&T as well? What do I need to do to ensure compatibility with that network & the speeds I would like to achieve?

Phew. That is all. Thank you!!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skedi:
As far as I know, the international version of i9100 is quad-brand 3G which matches AT&T. You can get 1 on amazon for around $700 USD

OR

you can get a LOCKED i9100m from Bell or Virgin Canada, then unlock it. This phone is 599.99 in Canada.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alazarin:
Isn't the Bell version CDMA-only? Does it offer SIM?

Anyhow, I'll try my hands on an international unlocked version. Now, the question still remains... which one to buy from? Amazon.com has many resellers. NewEgg and Expansys-USA are single resellers, but I would probably have to ask where they get theirs from.

Are there any differences in getting it via from the UK, Korea, India, etc? I would also need an adapter that can be plugged in the US.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirdroid:
Ok there lots of information if you used search feature :)

Cheapest place to buy currently is www.expansys-usa.com, you get it for 658.99 and you get additional $10 off with lsjuly10 voucher.

You get hspa+ speeds with att and you can also use $15 unlimited non smartphone plan with sgs2.

Search around and you can find lots of info on this. Hope this helps :)

Edit : just to answer your other question, you get us adapter along with the phone from expansys, amazon. You might mostly get a phone with uk firmware but it shouldn't really matter. Once you get the phone you can flash whatever firmware you want thru odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alazarin:
Thank you very much for the coupon!!!

Searching around, it seems like Expansys-USA might be the best bang for the buck to purchase the unlocked version.

I also tried e-mailing NewEgg.com and some Amazon.com vendors. NewEgg.com said their S2 was "made in China." Hmm. I am unsure if it means it is a Chinese version. One vendor from Amazon.com said it was "unsure of where the device came from."

I'm assuming since there's an Expansys-UK, the Expansys-USA may be coming from UK. Is the UK version good? I guess UK (since it's in English) would be best for me...

I've also heard some versions do not have NFC. Does the UK version have NFC or working NFC in the states?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unleashed12:
Just get the bell one from canada and save yourself some money, its full hspa+ , meaning it will work with att 3g in the states. If you buy the european ones you'll likely pay upwards of 800$ I'm thinking...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alazarin:
Are the Bell ones unlocked? Where would I be able to find one? Any online resellers that are selling them? I thought the Bell ones were CDMA-only? Or do they also have SIM-card capabilities?

Driving up to Canada and purchasing one is not too feasible for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pterry30:
The bell ones are locked. Can be easly unlocked. They are sim ones. I using the one i bought with bell on telus
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unleashed12:
Nope, bell has been ditching its CDMA network for well over a year... All their new phones are gsm. Well not just driving up I'm saying ordering online from canada would probably even be cheaper than buying a european phone, and they are the same phone, no nfc, same model.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Greg:
I`m living in UK and I bought my SGS2 1 month ago from ebay. was sealed and is factory unlocked. It`s 100% original, not a fake. As far as I now if is factory unlocked it`s working in USA on At&t H+ speed, and you don`t need to unlock. If you want you can order from UK or wait when will be release in USA. Hope this help. Good luck!;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alazarin:
Do you have any recommendations to reliable online Canadian resellers?

The hard part is that I'm still deciding whether to buy from Expansys-USA (cheaper), Clove (great reviews + most reliable), or from an online Canadian reseller (could be even cheaper + more reliable since I live in the U.S.?). My main criteria is that:

I would like to buy the phone that was made in Korea, but for the UK/CA market (thus, factory sealed) and comes with a US adapter (not add-on). That seems to be the best one, but I am unsure which one would provide that.

WARNING : FLASH THIS SBF ONLY IF YOU ARE STILL RUNNING STOCK AT&T 2.2.2 WITH A LOCKED BOOTLOADER. ONCE YOU FLASH THIS ANY ATTEMPT AT A DOWNGRADE TO A PREVIOUS VERSION WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE.

If you are running anything else using this could increase your chances of bricking. Read the thread before flashing !!!!

This SBF is intended for people who don't want to deal with rooting and unlocking and OTA's and blur removal and fastboot and recovery and blah, blah blah I'm going to brick my phone regardless of what I do stuff.

It's also meant for people who have patience and want to upgrade safely who don't want to deal with Motorola Software Update because of the OS they're running.

It's an original SBF plain and simple.

edit: the compressed md5sum from the op is the same as the one i got from the motorola server which i flashed via rsd 5.3.1 with an unlocked bootloader. so apparently it is a sirvice sbf

[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
I also recommend not using. I used the 4.5.91 SBF a long time ago and bricked my phone shortly thereafter.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] eval-:
No, this .sbf is safe. It will just burn your fuse, just like the OTA, and make downgrading to anything impossible. To downgrade, you will have to use something that includes pudding, and you will have to 'oem unlock' ...that's all.

The .sbf is no more unsafe than the OTA. And once you've OTA'd, if you see "Failed to boot 4" this .sbf is the ONLY thing you can flash if you want to stay locked. Basically, if you have even started the OTA process, or have ever flashed this .sbf, you burned a fuse in ReservedOdm and have only two types of .sbfs you can flash. This one, or any+Pudding. Only this one will let you stay locked and still boot.

If you flash anything with Pudding after the OTA and you are

still locked

, you will see 0x1000. But it will be a soft-brick, and then your only choice will be to:

a) 'fastboot oem unlock' to continue.

or

b) flash this .sbf instead, and stay locked.

An AT&T user should never see 0x1000

from flashing this .sbf.

But afterwards, downgrades are dangerous

. 'Official' AT&T 4.5.91 users will hard-brick their phones with 0x1000, stuck in nvflash mode, if they ever try to use any .sbf except this one, or the very special non-motorola version of 1.8.3 (found in the Pudding thread) or Pudding itself. In the later case, you can still escape the 0x1000 by unlocking. If you flashed stock 1.8.3 or below after running GB 4.5.91 officially, your phone is a paperweight. Be warned.

So is this a service or full sbf for 4.5.91?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] anupash:
I am currently running locked and stock At&t 1.8.3. I want to update to this new OTA sbf. I read eval's post.

However, can someone confirm (break it down for me) that it is possible and probably safe to unlock the phone later using pudding or some other means. I am not an advanced user but will like to flash CM7 once its available.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Spectre51:
Yes you can use pudding to unlock the BL after installing the OTA 4.5.91
[Atrix 4G Android Development] feisty_noodle:
If you look around on the forum, you will quickly realize that what you propose is considered to be a BAD IDEA.

The reason is that the new bootloader makes it much more risky (as in brick-able) to downgrade using SBF.

So, I would suggest that you not use the SBF found in the OP to upgrade. There are better and safer means.

That said, people have successfully unlocked their bootloaders after installing this. The procedure still involved flashing Pudding and unlocking through fastboot (there are many sources of instructions). Once your bootloader is unlocked you will be able to flash non-Motorola ROMS (like Cm7).

Lastly, to repeat: there is no known reason to **** up your bootloader with this SBF!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] LivingChampion:
Think it's safe to update the official over Gingerblur? I'm not unlocked. After updating can I root and unlock the phone or does all have to be done before the update?

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Dell2:
Everyone keeps saying that I will brick my phone if I downgrade to 1.83, but why would I want to go back to 1.83? I need a stock gingerbread .sbf to go back to. Isn't this what I need? Is it a full .sbf or service .sbf?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] feisty_noodle:
It is not about just going back to 1.83. It is, potentially, going back to anything via SBF.

The situation has been that someone (a bunch of different people, actually) TRIED to go back to 1.83 and saw the consequences (i.e. bricks).

Nobody has any experience with any other manipulations to the bootloader because the situation with 1.83 has been scary enough.

So, the choice is: either go down the road from which there is no coming back, or go down the road which is fully reversible. It is unfortunate that the official road is the former one.

What is the difference between a full and a service SBF? Is it the presence of a /data image? If so, I think this one has it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
If you haven't unlocked this sbf is perfectly safe. Again downgrading back to froyo is another story, but using this to reflash gingerbread STOCK AND LOCKED IS FINE.
