i can see that this mod would be kinda cool, however u realise that it would mean keeping the capacitive soft buttons powered on all the time ready for input, basiclly it would stop deep sleep and keep the soft keys draining the battery non stop...

Hi there. I just got a streak and im trying to root it. I have tried searching on the market for z4root but its not showing up. I also tried superoneclick but when I click root, it just hangs and I have to shut it down cause its not responding.

I have tried to search but i cant seem to find any help.

Edit........ found it on another site. Hope it works

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -juanito-:
hello

i want to buy a new android phone and i love capture photos..so which one have a better camera..SGS2 or MyTouch Slide 4G or iPhone 4..i don't care about video recording
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unleashed12:
Best camera I've had on a smart phone yet; had an iPhone 4 for a bit before this and that had the best camera imo till the GS II, the GS II takes amazing photos and can't forget the 2mp front cam vs the less than 1mp vga camera that you get with almost any smartphone these days...

Theres a post on the GS II general here that says "post the best picture you've taken with the gs ii" or something, id check that thread out as people have some really amazing photos taken with the phone up.

Edit- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1139591

There we go, check that thread out. If you are a skilled photographer or even just a point and shoot guy the gs ii takes great photos.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unleashed12:
Well to each their own, from my personal experience i prefer the GSII camera 10x over the iPhone 4 camera. Then again I'm not really a photographing enthusiast I'm just a point and shoot type of person nor do i know the technical stuff about cameras to actually inspect both cameras technically and say which is better. If you are a "pro" photographer id google the specifications of each like the sensor or w/e and read up on it before making a decision.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JGS2:
I'm actually disappointed with the camera, I'm struggling to take any decent pictures with it, although that's probably my lack of talent.

I remember the iphone 4 camera being better, but without having them side by side I'll never know.

On paper the galaxy is better though.

Wait for iphone 5 or gs3
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonymy01:
edit: wrong thread, was meant to post into the "best photo you've taken" one... somehow ended up here...

Anyway, definitely it is much better than my SGS1, esp in lower light. The front camera is unreal also, I take a lot of pics with the front camera when I am out and about (so I can see what I am framing with me in the pic ;-). The SGS1 front camera produced distorted, messy blobs, the SGSII one is quite a bit better. Good enough for facebook uploads, anyway.

But friends took a pic of a group of us with an iphone in a poorly lit telephone exchange, I was amazed at the clarity of the image, my SGS1 was never capable of such an image in those light conditions (my old old Nokia N95 on the other hand, I was nearly always happy with those pics). I reckon (but will have to wait and see till I get to the same location again one day) that the SGSII might just pip it, thanks also to the flash.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaliKot:
Came from an iPhone 4, it definitely has a better camera and it's not very picky when it comes to lighting and focus. In contrast the SGS1 camera was pretty meh compared to the iPhone 4's shots

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amokbunny:
I agree, the camera is way better than the one the SGS1 had.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tameracingdriver:
I do think the s2 camera is slightly better than iPhone 4 but it does have a slower shutter speed (my mate and I have tested this) and sometimes its hard to get in focus... overall though not bad. Just my 2c
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
Its not the best camera around but it can surely rival the N8's 12Mpixel camera. The only downside is that there is a pink/green spot depending on the light conditions ( even out doors ) and some users have frame drop issues on low light when capturing 720P. 1080P video is extremely zoomed so this is only good as a 720P video capture. Putting aside the defects, the image quality is very acceptable, altho it still cant rival my very old Sony DSC-P200 ( roughly about 7-8yrs old )

dont be fooled with camera apps claiming hdr and taking a single picture - its just image processing and the result sux

gsmarena has good comparisons of different devices' cameras . It's important to see pictures taken under similar conditions and the same test scene .

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rchampagne:
Hey everyone,

I recently ran BRK's TF rooting script, followed all steps to a T, and it worked great. I confirm that Superuse permissions are working!

After that i re ran the tool and ran the install CWM Recovery script again.

Here's the catch.

I installed Rom Manager from the market and my premium license, but when I select " Install ROM from SD Card", i get a warning that says "Flashing an update package on a recovery other than ClockworkMod Recovery may not work properly. Proceed?"

Is CWM Recovery not installed?

Is there a way I can check?

many thanks

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iCracked:
unfortunately Rom Manager does not support the Asus Transformer Officially. Power off then while holding the vol down button press the power button for a few seconds and when prompted, release the vol down and press the vol up. It should say CWM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goplaycheckers:
There are several Market apps which should do the trick for you as well - I can't post links yet but you can go to the Market and search for "transformer reboot recovery".

I use the MoDaCo app and it works great. Revolver ROM also has the "reboot to recovery" feature built into the Revolver Parts app.

Gnufabio has a free app to boot into recovery.

If not just hold volume down plus power button, when you see the lines of wordings appear press volume up within 5 secs.

As far as removing the rubber pads, the best thing way I have found is to use pry from the inside out, meaning from the center of the tablet out at 45 degree angle. As for actually taking the thing apart I recommend getting one of these kits.

Hey all.

Been searching XDA and Google for anything on the original framework-res.apk file for the EVO3D.

I dont know what happened but after I flashed this zip from recovery, I rebooted and only see the top status/battery/timebar. NOTHING ELSE. Power button activates screen only...no lockscreen, just black screen and top bar.

Can anyone lend a hand and help me figure out if this can be reversed or uninstalled? Phone works....just cant see the screen to take calls. :(

Much thanx in advance.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Just download the stock ROM on your computer and pull the original apk from it. Or download the ROM you fiddled with, and pull its apk from there. You can also just try reinstalling the ROM. Or reflash it over. Just clear cache and Dalvik, then flash.

Oh and post this is Q&A next time, or the hall monitors will come and give you a ticket. Oh, and I forgot to mention a tongue lashing.

I also forgot to mention to be aware of the troll patrols. They'll troll you alive!
[HTC EVO 3D] zagman:
Thanx. Im downloading the stock rooted rom now.

The only reason I posted here was that the zip was a battery modification that for the life of me, I cant seem to remember where I got it from. Considering that it was a mod, I figured it would make sense in Themes and Apps...also figuring in that if someone who had used it as well would have knowledge of uninstall/removal.

Download's done. Will let u know if it worked. Thanx again DDiaz007!

[HTC EVO 3D] zagman:
I understand that DD. I don't plan on doing a clean install. After all, I do have a backup from about a week ago that I could restore in Clockwork as a last resort. But seeing as I have done some installs and the backup is a week old, I wanted to see if this zip can be uninstalled. I found out its from Team Xron and I downloaded it on 7/20, 5 days after I got my 3D.

My confusion gets worse now that I see that when I flashed the zip, (its contents included below) it had a META-INF file besides the .apk file. And comparing the 2 META-INF files from here and the stock Rom...they differ in size, and contents. The stock ROM META-INF does not include the RSA, SF, & MF file as does the Mod zip. Also the binary and script files differ in size.

How would u suggest going about changing it back? Should I put the .apk on my sd and push it using ADB? OR create a zip with the Stock .apk and META-INF and flash it in Clockwork Recovery as I did initially?

META-INF / CERT.RSA	RSA File	1.7 KB

META-INF / CERT.SF	SF File	382 bytes

META-INF / MANIFEST.MF	MF File	329 bytes

META-INF / com / google / android / update-binary	File	249.9 KB

META-INF / com / google / android / updater-script	File	196 bytes

framework / framework-res.apk	APK File	3.0 MB

Although I backed up in CWM....think im just gonna restore back to last week. If i get a wild hair and some good tech support from Xron, I might flash back and troubleshoot again. Oh well.... :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
Stop......Explain what you're trying to do and I will help you.

You want a stock framework-res file?
[HTC EVO 3D] zagman:
I flashed a battery mod from Xron and the screen was black all for notification bar on top. Trying to "undo" that. Ive extracted the framework-res.apk and the Meta-Inf folder from the stock rom and tried flashing. Not recognizable in CWM Rec. I used the original signed .zip and replaced the contents and the results are in my last post. What else can be done?
[HTC EVO 3D] steal25:
That updater script is trying to install more than what you have in the zip. Your best bet would be to push through adb

Enter-

Adb push (your framework-res.apk) /system/app/

I compiled the modules from https://github.com/Ninpo/ninphetamine/commit/2d1ffbcb9521299fdb53f681f65e7fe1230e0b32

If you still need those ko files, I attach them. I don't trust 100% my compilation (I had to cheat the versionmagic "+" in ninphetamine 2.0.5+), but they load OK according to lsmod and dmesg.

Can someone please explain how the 3g symbol/arrows/bars work?

I am just wanting to know how they relate with each other.

For example sometimes I have full bars and the 3g arrows are white, not transmitting data. And other times I have low signal bars and thr arrows are moving faster.

So if I have full bars should the arrows be moving all the time or is it just the nature of the beast and it transfers data when it wants to.

Thanks
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
3G is actually seperate from the phone radio. The bars represent phone signal strength. If 3G (data) is down you can still make phone calls. 3G is like your internet and data. The arrows moving are your accounts and emal syncing.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevesprivateaccount:
arrows show send and receive of data packets, they will blink, etc. but that has no relevance on the speed of your 3G connection or the strength.

3G is NOT separate from your phone radio, it is the same radio, which is why you can't have a data connection and voice connection at the same time.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
