[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADropBear:
Try uninstalling the new update and revert to the old version.

i.e. From Market settings (Manage Apps), Clear Data > Uninstall Update > Fake a provider using Market Enabler

Also make sure that all apps are checked in the Market settings. You should be able to purchase apps and see Google Maps now. Market should auto-update itself to the new version again when you return to the home screen.

Next time after you reboot or return from airplane mode, fake a provider first then clear Market data before accessing it. Otherwise you will have to go through the whole process again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobygold:
Thanks man!

It worked just the way you've said!

I got one chance to install the Google Maps (using the old Market), and next time I open the Market I got the new Market, which doesn't show the Google Maps, but all my installed apps are listed!

Thanks!

Hey everybody!

Now as there are a lot of ROMs for our S2 it's quite hard to decide which one to take. To make it easier for someone who's still searching it would be nice to know which ones are the most used ones.

I won't put any versions here, just the main name cause the versions change very fast ;)

So, which ROM do you prefer and are you using at the moment?

Why do you use it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
Double thread, why?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Because he didn't know how/if he could make a poll. It's quite clear if you read the redundant thread :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tshoulihane:
Is there any quick summary of the key features of these kernels? I'm finding the ROM threads a little light in the first post on features and limitations. I know it's subjective, but it would be nice if someone could collect a 2 line summary of each rom. Along the lines of [perf/power] [de/odex] [stock apps/minimal apps]. Also if they are supported only with a specific kernel or not.

[Samsung Mesmerize] jstahnke10:
OK, so I should have done it before I flashed the wrong firmware.

That's beside the point. After doing some research, I found someone with a similar situation that was able to flash their SGS with Heinz 57 and recover their mess up.

I am currently operational with USCC's 2.2.1 Froyo, but with no internal phone storage available.

I plan to flash with Heinz 57.

I did the CWM already. Will likely do it again for verification when I start this.

I will flash my Kernel with:

Touchwiz Froyo

imnuts

PeanutButta Jelly Time (Release 0531 with voodoo, no undervolt)

I will then flash with:

ROM Heinz 57 v1.2 with PBJT

I will likely flash a custom theme after that.

...but that is later and not as important.

Both the Kernel and Custom ROM are .zip files that Odin3 doesn't see, do I change their file extension to a .tar or extract them and re-compress them as a .tar?

Just extract them and use them that way?

Should the Odin3 re-partition box be checked?

Will I need a .pit file as well?

Where should I place the specific files prior to flashing? PDA/Phone/CSC?

I will likely do the flashing later this week when I have more time. My first attempt, I ran out of time and caused myself extra stress.

Thanks for the verification and info! Appreciate the time everyone puts into helping others!
[Samsung Mesmerize] scarmon25:
You flash the rom and kernel in custom recovery or cwm. Odin is really only for going all the way back to stock. I haven't seen to many roms made available to be flashed in odin. As for the repartition. When flashing back to stock.I alwayd use that trick. Now the main thing to remember is to uncheck it when flashing the cwm package. Hope this helps.

[Samsung Mesmerize] mezster:
I would suggest reading the second sticky in this forum (newbies guide...) and really spend some time with it before you do anything more. Flashing roms and kernels is not same as recovery.
[Samsung Mesmerize] wizayne:
never, never, never ever use anything in odin besides pit and pda section! I would suggest you read the stickies as started above, it will help you. then read them again, then read a few more threads in the fascinate section and their stickies, then you'll

have misty oh the answers you seek. before flashing you should be sure of what youre doing,.and if you aren't sure, do not do it. you need to read more because if it breaks nobody can fix it BUT YOU.

not trying to sound preachy but I've been in this boat and thank god people told me I needed more information, it saved me cuz I knew how to fix my error.. good luck

[HTC EVO 3D] orangegator:
Nice write up. But I would think that a protector over the lenses would cause distortion and lower quality pics. Personally, I just use a TPU case with separate openings for the cameras, leds, and speaker. That way the raised case around the lenses prevent them from getting scratched when laying the phone on a flat surface.
[HTC EVO 3D] jnewkirk10:
I did this as soon as I got the phone and here's what I came up with. First, you can take the battery cover off of the back and use the hole as the trace stencil. You will however have to trace and cut another hole for the flash or all your flash photography will have a blue glow from it lighting up the protector sitting on the lenses.
[HTC EVO 3D] MFD00M:
nice write up....except this company sells them.

EDIT - XDA won't let me post outside links. google phantom skinz

it comes with the area just around the lens cut out so it does not affect picture quality. i bought a set of these and they come with 2 sets, 2 front and 2 rear.

[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
No glow here and the photos are just as sharp as without the protector on. I've taken some flash shots with the protector on and I've compared macro shots of flowers. The flash doesn't cause any glow on the protector and there is no discernible distortion. Of course, it might depend on the type/brand screen protector you are using. You really have to use a crystal clear one.

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Here's a flower I shot after I put the protector on.
[HTC EVO 3D] xPhantom:
I still need to do this. I have heard people say that leaving the protector covering the LEDs causes a glare/glow in photos taken using the flash, but if you say otherwise, then that saves me the trouble of having to cut a hole for the LEDs.

I'm getting really sick of this.

Android can't seem to play video files smoothly whereas my old WinMo 6.1 device could play them just fine without conversion.

All I want is to be able to convert your run of the mill 350 MB TV show to an MP4 and run it on Android. It seems no matter what I try, I always get choppy video.

What's your strategy for getting this to work? A specific app you use to play or encode, perhaps?

I have an xperia x10a bought from bestbuy (att) and i have succesfully updated my phone to the Generic 2.1.1 on baseband 2.1.54 with build number 2.1.A.0.435. I am also rooted. My question is will i get the 2.3 update right away, because I am on a Generic firmware, or will i have to wait for some kind of an ftf or something?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negrobembon:
I read around here that rooted phones are a no go, so you may want to unroot just to be safe
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] videofreak2:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] william0410:
ok i unrooted my phone but the question was more about whether i will get the 2.3 update at the same time as everyone else because i have an att phone with generic firmware
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwyan Benton:
You will get the update. At the same time as everyone else...probably not. However the good news is is once it is officially released someone here will get it and the devs will be able to create a .ftf file for everyone to have it using flashtool. So once it is officially released the devs will have it ready for us in no time...you wont have to wait for SE anymore.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aR_ChRiS:
Maybe pre-rooted as well?

Because I remembered when 1 of the 2.1.1 updates came and we can't root it when it rolled out, so devs made a pre-rooted ftf file.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwyan Benton:
Maybe...i dont know. But like i said in another thread i dont imagine SE making this difficult to root since afterall they are unlocking there bootloaders on the newer phones....we'll see.

I have cyanogen 7.1 RC 1 using the latest leedroid kernel and I think stock ATT radio unless cyanogen flashes a different one. My problem is my GPS wont work at all. It wont find any satellites.

theres your problem DONT USE A SENSE KERNEL ON AN AOSP ROM it breaks things. try flashing lordmod's kernel its better than the stock cyanogenmod kernel
[HTC Inspire 4G] Jake33108:
+1 for all of this

In addition, if you haven't flashed a radio since rooting you probably have the old radio that is exploitable for rooting. The recomended radio for CM7 is the one in my sig, and for the GPS fix you can use Inspiremod0.5 it fixes the GPS and does a couple other things.

Hello Guys.

Here is a Simple solution for fixing GPS in your Samsung Gt I9003.

Steps.

Go to Dialer Dial *#*#3214789650#*#*

you will navigate to new screen called.

LbsTestMode.

First for fun just go outside of your home and Click on GetPosition Test.

you will see it shows some sattelites with an accuracy which will be more than 100 m.

Now follow these steps.

Select the Applications Settings and Change the Operation Mode from standalone to Ms Based, For some devices Ms Assisted will also work.

Start Mode to Hot Start GPS Plus ON.

Accuracy 100.

Time Out(s) 120.

Press back button.

In LbsTestMode.

Click againSUPL/CP Settings.

Server FQDN Type -> Custom Config.

Server -> supl.google.com

Server Port -> 7276

Supl Secure Socket -OFF

AGPS Mode -> SUPL.

Press back button. you will navigate to LbsTestMode Home screen.

Click on GetPosition Test. Be sure that you stay outside of your house to test the different sattelites locking.

You will now see the difference in number of satellites, it is increased and also the accuracy changing to 10m.

also check with Ms Assisted in Operation Mode to note the difference.

note down the different satellites and accuracy and select the appropiate one.

If you are unable to do this just downlaod the GPS Aids Free version from the Market.

In that click on Codes/Tools.

It will Open a screen with differnt buttons.

Click on GPS Test (LBSTestMode) and do the complete process.

For some devices the settings has to be changed depending on the location where you stay so just keep changing and check the maximum sattelites locking.

Hope it helps.

Hi, I'm using KP9 GB 2.3.4 .. that code didn't work on my phone, is there any other code for that ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] farooqnawaz:
You can use Gps aids free version available in market. I explained that in my first post.

If you want to lock quickly just increase the accuracy to 150 or 200. Then it will take very less time lock but an accuracy of 150m or 200m.

If you don't find enough satellites. Just increase the timeout.

Just keep changing the inputs and check accuracy and time inside and outside of your building.

Server:supl.google.com

Sever Port:7276

Another else is default

don't have flash rom and deodexed

Hope anyone can help

thank you
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] seanlimys:
change to ms-assisted, it will be alot faster...standalone and ms-based is not so reliant on agps data, unlike ms-assisted which requires network data to fix the satellites
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mingfai:
Now i can get 7 satellites

but all is "Silver" colour

[mean that it can't locate?]
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
Before you try this there is hardware based fix. See my signature post that will give you lock in5sec with 10 mt accuracy.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] farooqnawaz:
change the accuracy.

see the main problem is with the hardware which they had, no need for cutom rom, if you want to have it locked in less time just increase the accuracy may be 250 or 300.

you will see significant rise in number of satellites.

Try to have new official update version KF6, ofcourse its not GB.

Hope it Helps.
