This is intratech post. I will try to add in red the files:

Quick Root Guide

1. Download ChainFire's or Odia's insecure kernels from their respective threads. Please thank them and consider donating to them for their work. Also download stock kernel to match your firmware version and extract the tar from the zip archive and save it.

I use 7Zip to create the archives so maybe best to use it to extract it since WinRAR seems to have some issues. If the archive ends with .exe it's a self-extracting executable so just doubleclick to extract the archive.

I used this: http://www.multiupload.com/L40GHJZZR5 Is already ubzipped so use it as you downloaded it.

2. Download SuperOneClick v 1.91, or newer version if available, and extract the files to a folder

I use this : http://www.multiupload.com/ZN386P0626 You have to unzip after download

3. Shutdown phone and then go to download mode as instructed above in the guide for flashing the firmware.

4. Start Odin and click on the PDA button and select the insecure KDD kernel from Chainfire:

Once you've done this attach the USB cable to the phone and once ID:COM turns yellow click flash. Don't remove cable or press anything, it will reboot when it's done. You will see a yellow triangle when it reboots, fear not it's to be expected. Remove the USB cable when the phone reboots.

5. After the phone reboots go to:

Code:

settings > Applications > Development

and put a tick in USB debugging if it's not already ticked.

6. Assuming you've extracted the files for SuperOneClick start the application

7. Connect your USB cable

8. Click root and wait for it to finish. Install Busybox and all that good stuff.

9. Assuming this is successful you can then shutdown the phone and go to download mode

10. Now you can flash the Stock kernel to get rid of the yellow triangle just like how we flashed the insecure kernel above.

Use this. Kernel_I9100BUKG2.TAR (8 MB)	http://www.multiupload.com/5O5C5HA5AG

You've now rooted the phone and put back the stock kernel. High five!!!
[Galaxy S II General] dinoc:
Ok, now it starts to makes sense to me :) thanks mate !

It doesn't matter what insecure kernel you will flash first, just pick one randomly because on the latest step I will flash by stock BUKG2 kernel (like the official one), right ?
[Galaxy S II General] badmania98:
Right. I uploaded the files that I use.
[Galaxy S II General] dinoc:
Thanks a lot mate, I've managed to root it successfully on my stock BUKG2

data conectivity fails

Lately I'm experiencing a very annoying issue, the data service seems to fail in the middle of doing something (internet browsing, reading news, email, ...)

The data connectivity disconnects and re-connects a few minutes later (the 3G/H/H+ icon disappears and reappears after a few minutes by itself) ... in all this time I don't have any Internet access .

This seems to happen to me at least once a day or more.

Also, some time the signal fails, too, the phone show there is no signal (the icon with barred zero) and a little bit later the signal reapers.

I even did a factory reset + format without restoring anything from backup, hoping it will solve my issue but it didn't .

Do you guys experience this issue, too ?

I really don't know what the problem is and how to debug this.

PS> I have fast dormancy disabled

Does anyone have the correct APN settings for Orange Romania, i installed a custom ROM and i lost them, can't connect to 3g anymore. Their web site was no help, customer support the same. Thanks in advance guys.

My phone was in my pocket today and somehow the screen has cracked. Its not the actual glass though and the touchscreen still works. Is it worth sending it in to HTC or could a mobile phone shop repair it?

Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeaViper:
Can anyone help?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViousAD:
As long as you bought it from Staples, and took one of the protection plans with it, I'd say that you've got nothing to worry about. But my guess is that you haven't bought it that way simply because you've posted this.

I really don't think HTC's gonna own up to this. Although, I'm sure someone would be ready to exchange that if you throw in some money.

Oh, and just a tip.... Don't let that ANYWHERE near water. It's to do with how a capacitive touch screen works.

BTW, could I just ask how exactly it broke? Did you slip... or was the phone in your back pocket... was it in a tight pocket... were you mugged... That sort of suff.

I've been researching for the past 3 hours and I give up at this point. I'm coming from Honeycomb on EMMC to MIUI 1.7.22 also on EMMC. I used a CWM SD card to install, wiped data, system, cache, Dalvik cache and installed from the .zip file at least 4 times now. Everytime I get stuck at the Cyanogen(mod) Loading... boot screen and it never loads the MIUI ROM.

I found a fix involving swapping the SD cards before rebooting, that hasn't helped.

Hello, everyone. i have gotten my hands on a iphone 4 from Sweeden but i live here in the United States. Does anyone know how i can get it unlocked to work here? I have unlocked other phones but none from another country. Is it even possible to get it unlocked without an active sim card from Sweeden? Thank you for any insight you might be able to give me.
[General Questions and Answers] pouxonu:
hope this helps

More then likely you need to cocntact the service provider to get the device" unlocked" so it can be used with another carrier. If they say no then search the web for a person or shop that would do it for a fee, after that you should be able to use it in the states but not all carriers can use the device

Hi,

I just got my GS2 1 week ago and now am in big trouble :-(

I just dropped the S2 from my pocket while taking it out. :mad:

Now the screen is cracked (top Screen)

Everything else is working AMOLED display is also working fine.

I took it to a customer care and they said they need to replace both the top screen and AMOLED screen since they come as a piece and asked me 150 $

WHat do u guys think ???

will it cost that much ??

Please guide me on this :-(

i will post some images as soon as possible.

FYI : Only the top screen is cracked near to the BACK Capacitive button and the crack goes upto the middle of screen .

what is normal range in which x8 can run smooth with no lags or reboots?
[XPERIA X8 General] Chris95X8:
710MHz

Some people even OC it to 748MHz
[XPERIA X8 General] samyeung97hk:
Actually it's hard to say,every processor have it's own potential.

I can only OC to 710MHz,some people with newer x8(black one) can even OC to 800MHz.

But if you want your phone stable,the best way is not to overclock.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Khanusma:
I understand that some batteries require "conditioning" when they are first used but I am not aware of any products require calibration with the battery to make sure the device knows the real juice in the battery.

Seems strange to me.

What am I missing here?
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
Yea, before this phone I had the enV Touch and you could calibrate the touch screen but not the battery, now it's reversed with these new smartphones. Strange.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Steve.G:
First off, capacitive screens don't need calibration the way resistive screens (like your enV touch or any phone with a stylus) do.

On topic with the post, however:

Lithium batteries in general don't require calibration. Short frequent charge cycles are fine. However, most manufacturers recommend you cycle the battery when it is new and after it has been stored for a long time. This ensures consistent charge state across all of the cells.

As far as I understand: Keeping a full charge on your battery for a long time can be bad for it, so to counteract all the people out there who sleep with their phones plugged in Android will actually continue reporting a full battery and allow the battery to drain to 80% or so and keep it at that lower charge level. The OS will then report a full charge when you wake up, and when you go about your day your phone will take a sharp drop to 80% or so and then slow down.

The above is the big reason for 'bump charging'. That is, to fill up that last 20%. What the recalibration apps appear to do is wipe the battery stats on the OS, so that you can redefine what 0% and 100% are.

Some good reading: How to Prolong Lithium Batteries

How to Prime Batteries
[Verizon Droid Charge] Khanusma:
Thanks for the response!

Why doesn't it just report the actual battery level? Wouldn't that make more sense?

Why don't they just tell each other the truth and then I won't have to deal with it and then i won't need to calibrate?

Is this just some inherent requirement of a product and a battery in which you allow the battery to stop charging when it hits 100% even while plugged in?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Steve.G:
Right, because let's say it stopped charging at 100%, it would wear down to 99% after a while and then start charging again.

If that cycle continued for hours or days, the battery would in effect be stored at high load for a long time which can damage the cells. That's why it drops to 80.

I remembered this article and while I was coming to repost it, I realized it was originally written by an XDA member anyways. :D

http://phandroid.com/2010/12/25/your-smartphones-battery-gauge-is-lying-to-you-and-its-not-such-a-bad-thing/

He does a much better job of explaining it than I.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Khanusma:
This is an excellent article which everyone should read; however, it does not explain why I need to calibrate.

If the app on the phone can discern system reported vs. corrected, then the system should be able to correct itself and show the actual real battery available. If the system knows exactly how much battery is left than calibration would not be required. I could be missing something here but it seems logical.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Here is likely a big reason for the battery calibration on Android phones compared to other portable devices. How often do you flash a Windows Phone or iOS device with a new ROM/OS/Whatever? Same goes for laptops, are you re-installing the OS every day? Android is completely open and allows you to do all sorts of different things. How one kernel reports battery is going to be different from another kernel, and the same could also be true about how the ROM interprets the battery life remaining. The only way to correct these differences between flashes is to calibrate the battery to the new system. Is it required all the time? No. You shouldn't have to recalibrate the battery unless you're going to a different ROM and kernel. If you wipe data on your phone, you should however calibrate the battery as that is where the info on calibration is stored, so until it sees the full range of the battery, it won't have an accurate calibration saved. So, after you're done flashing a new ROM on your iPhone, don't forget to calibrate the battery...oh wait :rolleyes:
[Verizon Droid Charge] Steve.G:
Thanks for that imnuts. That makes a lot of sense

sent from my humble charge
[Verizon Droid Charge] Khanusma:
Thanks for the response.

I think what I highlighted really is what I was looking for. I guess the kernel and roms have to "interpret battery life" and there is no such thing as knowing what real battery life really is.

I hope in the future they can make batteries and circuits smarter so we dont have to deal with this rediculousness. :) You would think duracell or energizer or some entrepreneur would have thought of this by now. I wish I was smart... haha.

I flashed latest Gingerbread 2.3.3 stock firmware since it was published, after experiencing all sorts of issues with JVQ. I easily got root through cf-root 3.7 and I'm now on Galaxian kernel 2.4. I'm experiencing a smooth, flawless system, while I read that everybody has problems with most ROMs - and particularly with JVQ based ROMs - when it comes to testing different kernels. No need for an ext4 lagfix, everything is perfect even with RFS! Wi-fi, BT, GPS, FM radio, front and back cameras are all working perfectly. I usually get 40 hours from my battery before recharging, and I still have about 20% juice when I do so. I mean, what's the point in flashing JVQ if it's so full of bugs? :confused:

[HTC EVO 3D] DevXen:
I have a Class 2 16GB SD card, I was thinking about putting in my Evo3D.. it'll obviously take longer to put files on it/copy off. but are there any performance issues i should be concerned with? - in the OG Evo4G. 720p video worked fine. .. But i have'nt worried about it, now my 8 GIG is filling up quite quickly. So I wanted to see what performance issues i would have, or what i should be cautious of. if i switch cards..
[HTC EVO 3D] DjMoment:
Memory cards

The class 2 appeared to work fine in the EVO4g, but I always felt like the video might be choppy and jumpy! I didn't really notice the difference until I got the EVO3d. The class 4 in the 3d is way faster with file transfers, and the video is A LOT smoother!! Also, any apps that you install to the video card will run much slower on the class 2. The price of cards has dropped so much that in my opinion I would not use the class 2 and go pick up a higher capacity class 4, preferably class 10. You will be very happy that you did.

I used to work for ICS at Sun Microsystems and I had to deal with a lot more than she did.

Also if she is incompetent to do her job maybe she should do something else, because in this case I was the one being jerked around by someone who had no idea what they were talking about and that is below my expectations of t-mobile customer service...

First, that CSR was obviously side stepping the question which is not cool. If she didn't know the answer she shouldn't have said so.

Sorry you had such a problem, bro. You're probably better off actually calling up Customer Care and talking to someone voice to voice instead of through the internet. The customer care isn't outsourced and the reps there, at least that I've talked to, are quite knowledgable.

Second, the device only can achieve a max of 14.4 MBPS, but it's all based off of how many people are using the towers you're near. If you're in a heavily populated area, with a lot of T-Mo customers bouncing off of towers, your speeds are going to be lower. It's common knowledge and if you're so "advanced" you should realize this too.

I've gotten speeds of 10 MBPS in my area, which is right outside of Philadelphia, in New Jersey at ~4 AM. The phone can do it, however the 42 MBPS it won't be able to take advantage of. It's only for the WebConnect Rocket sticks, if you bothered to read any tech sites and press releases thoroughly.
