Hi There

Im hanging on while i try to transfer the exchange account from my friends business laptop to the sgs2. Other Peoples of the Company can access the exchange server cia the iPhone. They didnt install any software beacause its not allowed on the computers there. I already found the password and the exchange server but it doesnt work. Is there any solution to convert the ost file of outlook to android?

Regards daglobe
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mddmx:
If you really want to do what you say ... you might go research a product named companionlink. They have been around a long time and can synchronize outlook to android.

However, the exchange client that is built into this device is way better (IMHO) then the iPhone. Likely, it's just a matter of filling out the boxes correctly. Once you get it working ... it's worth the diddling about.

good luck.

*I didn't post this in the development thread b/c of minimal post restrictions in the thread...*

Seems like there is a quick answer to this one, but I am unsure. Running LGS 1.4 and Imo's lean kernel (batt saver mode and interactive x gov)

In order to enable swap do I flash the zip, or have swap settings already been cooked into Imo's lean kernel?

Any help would be much appreciated.

I believe the themes have to have the same number of lockscreens to work on our vibrants.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Majin_X:
I have heard this also... I just flashed the deep purple theme and all worked well except the phone app was gone for some reason.... it only had 5 lock screens though... mine had 9 originally
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bfranklin1986:
It will work fine unless you chose a lockscreen that you don't have coding for, then you've just bought a ticket to bootloop city
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Majin_X:
can you elaborate on that? I flashed the LEGEND X theme and I got in a boot loop. i had the puzzle lockscreen on before the flash
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bfranklin1986:
I have no idea how to check for this before hand but say if you were on the puzzle lockscreen and then you flash a theme that edits some .xmls then you might have a situation where the lockscreen is looking for an .xml that doesn't work it anymore (or maybe is completely missing) and BAM your phones figurative brain explodes and sends you into bootloops. That's my understanding anyways so anybody feel free to correct me.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] nuwanmw1988:
Sphinx02's theme...yeah...it worked...but later found that it has a prob with lock screens...

Couldn't change the lock screen..so flashed back to original SH theme.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bfranklin1986:
I've been using the gingerway blue ocean theme for a few days and everything seems to work good
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Majin_X:
The obsession one has 10 lock screens. I'm going to try it anyway
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bfranklin1986:
I think everyone that tries one needs to report back if everything worked or not and we need to start a list of which ones actually work for us.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kwes1020:
I would use the standard android lockscreen since its in pretty much all themes and roms. To avoid possible bootloops or worse.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Majin_X:
that's what I've been going for as well. Great idea. So far the deep purple one worked for SH 4.0... It looked nice but the phone app was gone for some reason. And the legend x one put me in a boot loop.

[7 Mozart General] hxg:
I have a branded Mozart with Orange UK ROM version 7004. I'd like to get it updated to 7392 + have developer unlock, but:

I can get either 7392, or dev unlock using Chevron. When I debrand the ROM, I get version 7389 (or so), but his cannot be dev unlocked by Chevron. When I dev unlock the branded rom with Chevron, it stays 7004 and cannot be updated...

How to solve?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bballcat03:
I was using theunlockr method found here:

http://theunlockr.com/2011/05/03/how-to-flash-a-custom-recovery-image-on-the-t-mobile-g2x/

Under step 3 you're supposed to install the NVIDIA driver...and it says to hold down the power up/down buttons while plugging in the USB...well, mine never comes up with the "apx with an exclamation point next to it" inside of device manager.

However, with it plugged in still, in device manager it shows "NVIDIA USB Boot-Recovery driver for mobile devices" like it should.

So, should I be worried I didn't have to install the driver? Or is everything ok since it has the last step on there?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
You didn't say if you were actually successful or not at flashing cwm recovery. If you're able to boot into clockworkmod recovery then there is no issue. If it didn't flash to your phone properly then you need to try again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
If you have to, just uninstall and then reinstall the drivers as directed in the guide.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bballcat03:
Yes I was able to flash recovery and boot into it just fine.

That's why I was curious if I should be worried or not.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
If you can boot into cwm then you're good to go. Had you installed the drivers at some point prior to this?

[Atrix 4G General] artisticcheese:
After so many threads about battery issues I decided to take a plunge and try battery drain. Problem is that I have extended battery and I went from 100 to 1 percent in probably 5 hours but I'm currently at 1% and running with screen "always on" and playing YouTube vidoes in HD and yet it's not going anywhere from 1%. It's been like that for 2 hours now with screen on and youttube playing. Any better ways to drain it?
[Atrix 4G General] lsxrx7:

Try battery discharging on market.

It says a couble of staff, but only vibration is working. And makes difference.

I opened music gps wifi also.

Hello, I am thinking of buyin one of the two phones. The difference in price is 85$.

Is it possible root the phone and install custom roms, kernels etc as it is with Desire S?
[HTC Sensation] pakraider:
We are waiting for S-OFF to be disabled.. (disabling the security features that prevent installing custom roms, etc)

Rumors are that S-OFF is coming on Wednesday, so just about now.. but it's just a matter of time.

I'd go for the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] leftheodo:
No not yet but it seems like Alpharevx has found a patch that will give s-off and then we will be able to flash custom roms, kernels etc. The release date is uknown but anyway HTC has announced that they will unlock the bootloader on late august. Desire s is a.very good phone but sensation is overall a better phone. If you have the extra money i would recomend sensation. I m not flaming you here but it would be better if you did a little search before posting. Your questions ( especially about s-off ) have been answered over and over and over and over again in this forum :) . Anyway hope i've helped. Cheers

Using an unbranded unlocked SGSII. All the carrier branded ones are irrelevant for me now.
[Galaxy S II General] kirdroid:
Yes irrelevant even for me :)... But there a lot folks who buy from carriers due to discounted prices on handset.
[Galaxy S II General] JKingDev:
You cannot use unbranded devices on VZW. And if you want good service in the US you need VZW (I know, subjective to location, but it is a fact that VZW has the best spectrum almost everywhere).

I have been using unbranded devices for a long time on ATT but will switch to VZW when the QWERTY samsung comes out.

If you think about it though, if you have service for 2+ years and dont sign a contract you have just lost a lot of money. I should have bought an iphone, jailbroken it and sold it for at or above retail :D. Even if you end up leaving and paying etf you still break even or make $$ if the etf is prorated..

And if you travel outside the US at all, you want GSM/UMTS and that means AT&T.

That's not counting the few hybrid "world phones" that VZW carries, which the CDMA(LTE?) SGS2 won't be.
[Galaxy S II General] srr118:
Very true. I have used AT&T phones (Iphone 3Gs and I897) in Korea, Japan, Haiti, Iraq, Kuwait, Germany, Ireland. Although it is quite expensive for international data/ voice, text is not too bad for a few messages until you can find a wifi connection.

Bricked my Captivate, so now running GS2 in Iraq with local sim. Data works with AT&T APN but too expensive. So for now only wifi connection. Found a great use for my Iphone.....Alarmclock!!

[Wildfire General] rocky7x:
Hello,

I've flashed cyanogenmod 7.1 RC1 and immediately switched to using the smartass governor. However, I've noticed that the apps that can detect CPU speed (like SetCPU or OS Monitor) always detect frequency as 480 MHz. I've set the Max freq to 748 MHz and min to 245 MHz, but whatever I do, the frequency stays at 480 MHz. I've also seen in the messages section of OS Monitor errors about setting to 768000 from 480000, so I guess there is some kind of a problem there.

So is there a problem or does this governor work in a completely different way - if so, how? ;-)

Thanks a lot.

Cheers...
[Wildfire General] arco68:
Smartass caps the frequency when screen on to 480 MHz to ensure responsiveness. This also helps with video playback being smooth, as it otherwise will begin to stutter when the frequency is lower than this.
[Wildfire General] rocky7x:
OK, but how does it behave during screen off and battery low scenarios? Does it put the freq to to minimum value which is selected in the freq options of cyanogenmod setup?

I just want to understand if indeed the smartass governor can replace setcpu with profiles using the ondemand governor and keep the battery usage at optimal values.

Thanks...
[Wildfire General] :
When screen off smart ass governor sets the minimum CPU frequency to the value you entered (even below 480 which is to conserve the battery).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jchusted:
Hi Guys

Maybe the answer on this question is easy for you guys, but I have searched a lot and can't find the answer.

My problem.

I have had a custom rom on my phone for a half year.

Then I wanted to install a stock rom, so I rebooted to recovery and formatted it all.

Then did I find a custom rom, and tried to download it with Odin.

First stock rom stopped in the middel of the installation.

Then I tried another version, it did not help either. I did finish the installation, but screwed up my bootloader.

Is have installed a new bootloader again and think it works again.

Then did I read in a thread that it's important that I now which rom version my phone is running. (JPY JPO ect.)

How can I find out which stock rom belongs to my phone, when I only have download mode and recovery.

I also tried to install Darkys rom, but realised i didn't knew how to push the file into the sd card in download mode.

Can anyone help me with this problem.

I really don't now how to get my phone up and running again.

Thanks in advance

Jens Christian
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
You don't need to place the Darky's ROM on the SD card. Just put your phone into download mode and use Odin as instructed in Darky's thread. You install the ROM from your PC.

And in future, you may want to do a little more research into how to use odin to handle problems before you flash something new...it will save you a lot of stress.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jchusted:
Next time I will be more carefull.

I just tried to install another stock rom, and this did also screw up me bootloader.

It's the same error as in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=984140

Do anyone know why ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jchusted:
I'm sorry, but I can't find the thread which are describing how to install with odin.

Only how to install with Darky app, which have to be installed on a working rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
So then follow the fix outlined in that thread.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jchusted:
I did and it's okay.

But I still don't know how to install a stock rom on my phone, without getting a error.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jchusted:
Now i have tried several stock roms and after installing I still get the same error as on the link.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=984140

Why is this not working for me?

I'm going for getting a stock rom on the phone. Darkys was only an emergency, if I can't make the stock installation to work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukaszD.:
Did rom files downloaded properly? And theres issue that flasging often fails while using odin 1.7 and 64bit windows 7 (and maybe other 64x).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jchusted:
Hi i lost the problem.

Found a stock rom which worked fine for me.

Tried without repartition in Odin.

Thanks for the try :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gfacer:
Great... Now the reason you had the issue like the thread (which was likely answered in the thread) was that a file, likely dbdata.rfs was not on the package and you repartitioned it. So that partition never gets created and then can't be mounted.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaquaslife:
Ok before I begin I want to say I am not a total noob at this stuff, although I am not a master. I have rooted and installed roms, radios and Kernels on three different phones and I've also used adb to do some random things. I have only used them on windows pc's but never on an apple pc.

I got the HTC G2 to play around with, since I am not brave enough to do it on my SGS 4G. The first thing I did was install VISIONary+. I was able to acquire temp root but after tinkering with it I broke my R/W access(just an assumption). I decided to give up and go the good old ADB way.

I searched the forums and found solutions but they are only for intel based macs. I am running a PPC mac. I scoured the interwebz and have lucked out and found a guy who modified the files to works on PPC architecture's. He also stated that this was done on a Leopard laptop, Mine is tiger(yes i am to cheap and to fork out 150 bucks for a new OS) OS X 10.4.11.I am starting to feel my problem is the Tiger OS. When I connect my phone I enable debugging and connected it to my laptop. I open my terminal and type:

-------------

""/Users/brianjaqua/desktop/android_ppc/adb""

-------------

when I do that It gives me a bus error. I have also tried just double clicking the file to start adb that way and it gives me:

-------------

""Last login: Tue Jul 26 13:10:59 on console

/Users/brianjaqua/Desktop/android_ppc/adb; exit

Welcome to Darwin!

brian-jaquas-ibook-g4:~ brianjaqua$ /Users/brianjaqua/Desktop/android_ppc/adb; exit

Bus error

logout

[Process completed]""

-------------

I am stumped I have tried everything I can think of. When I did give up i tried installing the original rom that came with it to try and fix the R/W problem that VISIONary gave me. I tried a modified version that came with root already something that I was able to supposedly just do without rooting. The phone didn't even pick it up from the boot loader as being on my sd card, seemed to me like it just ignored the fact that it even existed. so i ditched it and went with a totally fresh pc10img.zip one that hadn't been tinkered with, yup same damn issue just ignored it's existence. Then I got Super excited when I found a leaked release of gingerbread on the interwebz. Every single darn person said boot loader acknowledged its existence and started to install it(even on unrooted phones) without an issue. But what did i get? a big **** slap to the face! once again my phone ignored its existence!!! WTF?!?!? So now I am stuck in the mudd while everyone else is enjoying the party. And yes Its on the root of my sd card.Any clue as to why it seems my phone doesnt want to install a pc10img.zip file? or why i cant use VISIONary+ or even why ADB is telling "**** you"? Any help would be greatly appreciated, even maybe just a nudge in the right direction or a "Hey Bro your not a total ****ing retard" would be greatly helpful. Thank you for reading my ramblings and such.:mad:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
Make sure the pc10img.zip is all caps. If the mods were created on leopard I'm pretty sure you are SOL if running tiger. Don't use visionary for the exact reasons you mentioned above. Lion is only like 50 bucks.
