I wouldnt of thought it will be too long till one of the devs work it out, im not sure how the pre-rooted ones work, and is a little more faffing around that id like at the moment, plus im quite happy with the bog standard 2.3.3, just want to restore my apps and stuff really
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DLpnd:
I don't think devs would root it, no point. Pre rooted roms work great.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] KnightUK:
well not everyone wants a generic rom, or one from another region, some people prefer certain roms, such as their operator roms and for people in the US some of them have problems with the X10i roms, and as such are stuck with the 10a roms or something like that, so thats where the seperate root comes into its own, as people can choose when they want to root.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] GreatBigDog:
Look, It's possible to get a stock pre-rooted 2.3 onto our phones so looking for a way to directly root 2.3.3+ is a waist of time for our devices. You won't find any devs trying to root 2.3.3+ unless they are trying to gain root access on a device that can't be downgraded to an older version that there is a known rooting exploit for.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Best of luck finding an exploit!!!

rageagainstthecage doesnt work

psneuter doesnt work

gingerbreak doesnt work

If u are lucky in few months MAY BE a new exploit might be discovered...

As for "operator customizations" u can flash ur regions fw then take a system dump and keep adding operator customized files on the prerooted roms...

P.S.: why is this question thread posted in dev section?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] nekkidtruth:
I'm an X10a owner currently running Wolf's X10i ROM. I'm a Roger's customer to boot. There isn't a single thing wrong with running the X10i firmware. Personally I've never ever experienced issues with anything X10i related. Give it a shot! My phone is ridiculously fast and doesn't have a single issue. The battery life alone is worth the jump. I've been on my phone all day reapplying settings/apps/etc and I just now hit under 50% battery. That's over 10 hours of consistent use.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dhruvaz:
shoby dont give me a smug answer i searched before posting if you dont know the answer then dont answer it period.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] nekkidtruth:
Maybe the problem wasn't his answer, it was your question?

You asked how long it would take for 2.3.3 to be rooted. As he responded, it already is. Looking at the first page in this section of the forums shows that very clearly as there are numerous ROM postings that clearly state "Rooted".

Perhaps a better question would have been "How long do you think until we have a way to root without having to flash a pre-rooted ROM?" ;)

[Bada Software and Hacking General] Lithophyses:
Hello,

in the leaked bada 2 firmware there are three .wgt-files in the internal "Others" folder.

If you install the currency widget, installation fails.

Installing the dictionary widget works but i dont want to put it on my homescreen (restart possible).

But the flags file installs a WAC app right into the menu.

So my question is if someone could try to install this file on a bada 1.2 firmware phone. Or if someone could check the files inside the .wgt container and tell us why it is handled as an app.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] mylove90:
in 1.2 it is handled as a widget

Strange ha?!

Thats why it was said that WAC platform will convert widget developers into app developers

Best Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] Lithophyses:
my fault :)

http://www.wacapps.net/web/portal/dev-guide

but how far can these wac apps go? i mean which rights do they have? and how is the performance in comparison to bada apps written in c++ (or whatever bada language is)

and why is the dictionary thing shown as a widget only?
[Bada Software and Hacking General] anghelyi:
I checked the config.xml files in the flags widget and in an old one and the difference is quite conspicuous:

This is the old widget:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electroz:
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.zip is not even close to our version of android. It is a 2.3.4 kernel. Just because it says KG2, doesn't mean it's the same. That only refers to a single geographical area's release for a month. I'll explain:

The rom letter versions are actually based upon 5 letters, not 3. There are several variants of KG2. Basically, the Samsung naming convention is as follows:

Model name: I9100M

Provider/Area: UG (Bell/Virgin/Sasktel)

Rom Version: KG2

Now, the rom version can get broken down into each letter as well...

K = 2011

G = July

2 = 2nd version that month.

All area's roms are developed completely separate from each other...

Ours is UGKG2. Which is unavailable for download from the Samsung servers, so we're not able to actually get back to stock, or make any kind of custom firmwares/kernels based upon it.

All the other ones, including ZS, JP, and XX are completely different roms and kernels than what we have on our Bell phones.

The KG2 that either of those 3 kernels are based on are either 2.3.4 roms or different 2.3.3 roms. So, matching that is no different than installing a KG1 or KG3 or any KF* CF-Root kernels. ChainFire has not made a CF-Root based upon UGKG2 yet, so no matter what one you install, it's not based upon our rom, meaning you can basically install ANY CF-Root Kernel and as long as your phone still works with it, it doesn't matter. All the roms are completely different and the naming convention has nothing to do with each other unless all 5 letters/numbers match up.

Lesson of the night???? Just because a pile of uninformed people on a forum agree about something, it doesn't make it correct...

I have a friend with a Bell branded GS2 which he unlocked by buying a code to use on the Telus network. He wants me to upgrade it to 2.3.4 for him this weekend, but doesn't want it rooted.

I have an international unbranded GS2 and have flashed numerous firmwares. I have kept mine unrooted and have only flashed official leaked firmware via Odin (no custom ROM's). Can I update his the same way without rooting? I realize his model number will change (GT-I9100m to GT-I9100) and that he won't be able to go back until the Bell ROM is posted. I'm just not sure if there is any difference because his phone is branded and mine isn't.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electroz:
No difference at all. Go ahead and install 2.3.4. Our phones are exactly the same as the international version. It's an I9100M due to Bell's firmware.

I am a TELUS customer with a Bell SGS2, and everyone I call or who calls me experiences an echo on their end. I did some research and found that it was actually my phone that was the problem. People said they were able to rectify the problem by disabling "Noise Cancellation", however, the only way I've been able to find to disable it is within the call itself, which means I have to disable it in every call.

Does anyone know how to disable Noise Cancellation permanently? Thank you!

Hi KayvinM and Electroz, I'm from Canada and I ordered my S2 from Newegg.ca, so my phone came factory unlocked and right now I'm running it on the Telus Network.

My phone is running on the UK firmware but I would like to use a North American firmware.

My questions is that would I be able to run any firmware from any region I want without damaging my phone?

And witch firmware is the latest one for the Canadian region?

Here's the details for my SCS2:

PDA: I9100XWKF3

Phone: I9100XXKE7

CSC: I9100XEUKD1

I posted a thread about this yesterday but I didn't get much help, so I really appreciated if you guys can help me.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KayvinM:
Weird thing is I had this exact issue a couple of days ago. What kernel do you have installed at the moment?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KayvinM:
Hey id_mew, you can run any firmware you would like without damaging your phone. Just make sure you read up lots and you are comfortable with the process and using Odin. Also avoid using any .pit files when flashing unless it's called for. All the firmwares can be found in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 As off right now the latest canadian firmware is bell's/virgin UGK2 which is 2.3.3 based. Problem is if you are not currently on this firmware, you wont be able to flash it because it hasn't been released yet. As to my knowledge the latest official firmware is XXKG5 (poland based) and KG7 (Brazil) which was released earlier this month. Here is one the threads I found regarding ithttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1200044 As far as I understand there is no difference between the European and the Canadian version of the sgs2. Both phones make use of the same cell tower frequencies, meaning you should have no issues running a european based firmware here in canada. It just comes down to personal preference. Hope I was able to help :)

As many of us is waiting for UGKG2 the stock bell rom, will it be available eventually? Quite a few people I know need that rom to revert so the phone can be send back for repair if need be.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sobai:
It's whenever Samsung plans to make it available. They might someday, or they may never. Other cellular firmwares are readily available, so I don't see why the Bell firmware won't. My guess is that the firmware will probably be released when Bell releases a new firmware with 2.3.4.

Just upload the pic you want and I'll make it for ya! Just remember to keep in mind that our screen resolution is 540x960.

Rename the files to PG86IMG.zip and run it in Bootloader and your phone shall handle the rest.

I have now posted a VIDEO TUTORIAL for those that were haveing trouble understand the written tutorial. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suOrmAEhkOg

SELF EXPLANATION and TUTORIAL

I have attached the cmd tool to make your very splash screen. I got it after a long search and it was created by "Pof" a retired developer back in 2008. A moment in silence for the help he provided to these boards. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=405118

Here is the Stock Splash Screen incase you want to revert back. STOCK SPLASH Shouts out to Rydah805 for hooking it up.

1. Download the nbimg.zip I HAVE ATTACHED IT!!!! That other link is a different version.

2. Extract the nbimg.zip to your desktop. It should create a folder called nbimg and should contain the "nbimg" file and the "android-info" txt file. You can create splash screens for other devices as long as you replace this android-info file with its proper one. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT ANDROID-INFO.TXT FILE FOR YOUR DEVICE. THE ONE I HAVE INCLUDED IS FOR THE HTC EVO 3D

3. Create a blank 540x960 image in photoshop and design it however you like. I usually find a photo on deviantart.com and paste it onto the 540x960 blank image I created.

4. Save the file as "splash1.bmp" and it must be 24-bit.

5. Place the splash1.bmp file in your nbimg folder.

6. Open up your command prompt/terminal by holding down shift and right clicking the nbimg folder and selecting open command window here. It should automatically put you into that folders directory otherwise you will have to "cd /" to it's directory.

7. Type "nbimg -F splash1.bmp -w 540 -h 960" into the terminal and press enter. That should create a splash1.bmp.nb file in your nbimg folder.

8. Rename the splash1.bmp.nb file to splash1.img and save it.

9. Add the splash1.img file and android-info.txt file to a zip archive called PG86IMG.zip

10. You should know how to load it into bootloader from this point on.

With that being said, higher res pics will make better quality Splashes. Here is mines for example. Say Hello to Ulquiorra Schiffer, the 4th ESPADA.

Hi.

I am having problems flashing Amon_RA on my Nexus One.

I am currently running CWM 3.0.0.5 installed via ROM Manager, and i have switched back and forth between Amon_RA and CWM many many times before, using Rom Manager, but now it does not seem to work.

My phone is S-ON and running Newest MIUI Rom from MIUI.us.

I flashed from RA to CWM yesterday, and since that I have been sitting 6 hours trying to get RA back...

I did not find any working solutions searching the forums either, allthough more people seem to have the issue occationally.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this, or at least what's causing it??

I would be Very grateful!

Edit: In Rom Manager, after attemting to flash Ra, it sais the flash was successfull, and displays that Ra is installed, even after reboot, it tells me Ra is currently installed, but booting into recovery still brings up CWM...
