Go in download mode and flash kyrillos rom non oc version.

Then go in recovery and wipe data/cache/dalvik cache

Then flash stock rom.

Now you are sure you have a factory phone.

Ps: this is the long way. If you just need recovery flash the rom you prefer
[Galaxy 3 General] cdesai:
So much not needed to do a simple factory reset!

Do this:

turn off phone

press home & vol up/down(both) keeping them pressed press power button and on gt-I5800/1 logo release all buttons

you'll see stock samsung recovery(just 4 options available)

use vol keys to navigate and home to select

select wipe data/factory reset and let it happen

Done! :)
[Galaxy 3 General] vidarb:
This does not work on this phone for some reason :( Doing it exactly as you have described...

Must probably do it the hard way and flash CWM etc...
[Galaxy 3 General] dhirend_6d:
Goto download mode and flash a .tar as one package that contains only datafs.rfs. You ll find it in CyanogenMod thread I think.
[Galaxy 3 General] RafayelG:
thats smart
[Galaxy 3 General] cdesai:
With cache.rfs for a full reset

Or a better idea

Open back cover of the phone

On the bottom left (near the screw) just where the battery ends there is what small hole

That's the hard reset switch

Press it with a small pin and done!

Remove sdcard if you wanna preserve sdcard data
[HTC Sensation] HamsterCaster:
Well I've been waiting 3 months to see how the HTC Sensation has faired, unfortunately I don't know anyone with one, only going off the forums.

I think I have come to the conclusion that I'm probably going to look for a different phone, I've has a HTC Wildfire for over 6 months and really wanted to go down the HTC Sensation route, problem is I'm reading nothing but problems with the phone, and more worrying is HTC's flippant disregard for accepting that there are some serious issues with this phone. Am mainly speaking about loss of signal and dust under the screen. Are theses issue as prevalent as described in the forums?

Would appreciate some feedback from someone whose had one for a couple of months or so.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
I haven't had any problems with my Sensation.

The problem with looking at peoples experience with the phone here is that they will most likely only post when something bad happens, you wont hear about all the times that it's worked perfectly.
[HTC Sensation] rwt4jc:
Buy or not?

I like mine. No dust under the screen. This is the best phone Tmo has of this type. If I were going to buy a phone outright and unlock it I might consider another phone.
[HTC Sensation] dr.m0x:
Nothing wrong with the phone. For me p personally I'm going back to my Desire HD as my main phone, but only because I'm a chronic hacker and the state of custom rom development on that phone is much more mature. In a couple if months as things advance here I will once again be putting the Sensation in my pocket every morning.

Overall I love this phone but I get better battery life out of the Dhd. The only reason is Cyanogenmod with aggressive undervolting. Once I can do the same to this phone I shall return.

Out of the box this is decidedly the bette phone.

Sent from my Leedroid Sensational Htc Sensation!
[HTC Sensation] erasable:
No problems here either.

Hi, I was at the same position like you. And I bought Sensation. It is very good phone and I have no problems with it. It works just perfectly.

Buy it =)

[HTC Sensation] gs111:
I've had my Sensation here in Canada for 4 weeks now, and I have no complaints about the phone at all. Works great, looks great, and the battery easily lasts all day.
[HTC Sensation] HamsterCaster:
Many thanks for all your helpful replies, think I'm gonna bite the bullet.

Next question is where to buy it from... have had bad dealings with carphone warehouse, so looking like the internet :)
[HTC Sensation] Aznneedlovetoo:
There is most likely gonna be a problem with the phone if you buy it used.

I think it's a sin to sell a perfect Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] Jacob.jsweets:
Best phone I've owned so far, still waiting for US tmobile version of gs2(Hercules) but the sensation will do even gonna keep it as my back up once the gs2 arrives... Get it, its a awesome phone
[HTC Sensation] HamsterCaster:
If there's likely to be a problem with it I think I'll need to buy it from a store so returning will be easier, just don't want to use carphone warehouse as their returns policy is pants. May try o2 shop.
[HTC Sensation] Subaru_Nation555:
I was in the same boat as you but have decided to go for it. Just keep in mind that more people post on forums to get help with a problem rather than sing the praises of a device. Yes, the Sensation does has its share of issues but lots of people have no issues whatsoever.

That being said, definitely buy from a place that has a good return/exchange policy and get a device with an HTC warranty so you're covered if problems do arise.

Good luck!
[HTC Sensation] imcunner:
Just get the sensation, you wont regret it
[HTC Sensation] emanuel12:
Sure!

If you don't like just sell it and lose a couple bucks, what's the big deal?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cormor:
I have the lg optimus v, which is not flash compatible phone based on things that I have read. I changed the build.prop file on my phone so that I could get hulu & crackle from the market. I was able to download both of them & get them to start running, but crackle is telling me that I need flash & won't play any video. I'm able to look at videos on hulu & it uses flash. Is there a reason why crackle is making me download flash while hulu, which also uses flash, is playing videos for me? Does hulu convert the flash like skyfire does?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fre1102:
I just flashed back to Vegan Ginger. My GTab spent most of its life on that ROM. Since I flashed back to it, though, the wi-fi doesn't turn on when I turn on the tablet--I have to manually turn it on each time.

That's not that bad, but I think it's related to my real problem--some apps are telling me they don't have a network connection and to make sure the tablet isn't in airplane mode. The New York Times app always does this now, and it never had an issue before, on any other ROM, including Vegan Ginger. The wi-fi is on and it is definitely connected to the internet. I am sure it must be a setting, I just can't find the one to change. Anyone seen this before?

Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
Flashed back from what? When you flashed VG did you do a data/factory reset, wipe cache & wipe dalvik cache?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fre1102:
Hm. I probably flashed from CM7.1.0. It's possible that I flashed from stock 3588 immediately after an NV Flash, but I think I went from CM7.1.0 after I couldn't figure out how to activate USB transfer on CM.

Either way, my process to flash a new ROM is:

1) Wipe data/factory reset

2) Wipe cache partition

3) Wipe dalvik cache

4) Install ROM from SD card

5) Reboot.

What's weird is how VG was different on this install than the previous one. The lock screen was slightly different. Same ROM zip file that's been on the SD card since the first time, though.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
The 3 versions (Froyo, Ginger, HC)each have different locks.

I seems to remember either CM7 or one of the kernels not working with USB.

If I were you I would try a Fix permissions & see if that fixes it. If not, redo your process above.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fre1102:
I meant like it was different from VEGAn Ginger when I had it installed the last time on my GTab a week ago. I got it to go back, mostly, it just seems like the preferences were different. Which is why I thought the wi-fi might be a preference issue--the wi-fi box unchecks itself each time the tablet is rebooted.

I'll try fixing the permissions, that sounds promising.

Wait...uh...what's that? (Or how do I do it?) :o

Thanks.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
It's in CWM, go to Advanced, Fix Permissions!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fre1102:
Found it, thanks. Didn't fix it.

Hm. Have re-installed VEGAn GE several times. No improvement.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fre1102:
It's in Brilliant Corners on the 1.2 BL too--you open the NY Times app and it says there's no connection and to check that you're not in airplane mode.

Fixing permissions doesn't seem to do anything. The app worked before on this GTab, and it works fine on my Droid Pro. What the heck?

Also when I try a factory reset I have to fill in a samsung ID and my password, I did this the first time but then my phone died when I put it back on again I can't factory reset it anymore.

No I want to try reinstalling the entire system any ideas?

if stock spl is on device, it's normal that it spits out a error when you try to flash a unsigned (custom) nbh.
[Trophy Windows Phone 7 Development] Deleted member 4370975:
I was trying to downgrade but it was that I trusted someone else's CRC on the RUU and it wasn't original manufacturer, so 260 means in that instance it wasn't accepted. After downloading a new copy from another site it worked. I had forgotten about this post, my apologies on not updating it. After downgrading I could flash HardSPL, then custom.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrissboston:
My question is, if you relock the bootloader on ns4g after unlocking and rooting, will you loose the root or the ability to flash any custom roms or mods?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
No. You can still flash anything via custom recovery.

You will, however, lose the ability to flash a custom recovery if it is overwritten via fastboot. If you have root access you can still use the flash_image binary from the device or flash via Rom Manager. If you lose root and recovery though you will have to unlock again.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
This is a dev phone, so you can lock and unlock the bootloader as you please. You will not be able to switch the recovery with it locked.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
Yes you can - via a custom recovery you can flash whatever you want.

Pre 2.3.3 you could fastboot boot a custom recovery and flash whatever you wanted without even touching the stock recovery. That was never the intended functionality though and 2.3.3 took that ability away again (so that you now have to initially unlock in order to flash a custom recovery).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrissboston:
Thanks

Thank you Rem3Dy & krohnjw, I understand now. And thanks for the tip about flashing through rom manager krohnjw, its very usefull and easier instead of flashing manually.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
And is causing problems en masse.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
erasing before flashing seems to help, I just use fastboot though as it's easy and doesn't have any issues. I don't recommend locking the bootloader if you plan on flashing, but it is possible.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrissboston:
I agree with you krohnjw as sometimes when you don't do a full wipe the new flashed rom gives you problems, specially with FC's, but I've never had a problem when flashing after doing a full wipe.

What’s the best SDK to develop Android multiplayer games? I’ve been looking at a number of SDKs including Skiller, OpenFeint and Scoreloop. Does anyone know if these SDKs support multiplayer games? If yes, how easy/ difficult is it build one using their SDK?
[General Questions and Answers] vladimir_g:
Hope I'm not stirring any ghosts since this thread is quite old, but it was not answered and I hope my answer will be relevant.

Disclosure: I work at Nextpeer. We provide both a server-side and client-side solution for adding a multiplayer option to games. This means you don't have to worry about hosting, player-to-player communication, or matchmaking. Our SDK is available for both Android and iOS, both natively (so you can integrate it with any other native framework) and as a Unity plugin.

I should say that there are other SDKs for multiplayer, for example Google Play Game Services, and they all have their pros and cons. Some are not as cross-platform as you'd like (Google's Game Services don't have Multiplayer support on iOS), others have tie-ins you may not be interested in (Google's framework is tied to Google Plus, while our SDK works with Facebook).
[General Questions and Answers] Nextpeer:
Nextpeer Multiplayer SDK

Our company, Nextpeer, offers a free, simple cross platform multiplayer SDK. We have the simplest integration which can be done in as little as 15 minutes, leaderboards and cross platform technology. Check out our website or email our support team at support@nextpeer.com.

Just restarted phone because of weirdness again - used to have to do it every 3 days or so.

This time SMS notifications suddenly started auto-clearing a few secs after they arrived. Now works again. Missed I'd got an important one too, meanwhile. Really bad this phone is less reliable doing basic phone stuff than a £10 plastic 'txt and talk' alternative. Maybe I should swap for one of those. At least they allow me to txt and talk reliably, and the battery will last ages :-(

I think it'll be back to Blackberry as soon as I can. Over a year to go :-(

Anyway, got 10days 4hrs 39min 55sec out of it this time without a reboot or hard crash. A record :-P

I often get near 20Mb/sec from WiFi on my G2X through my 20Gb/sec FIOS connection and the FIOS wireless router. (No SIM card in the phone; haven't tried it with a SIM card). That compares to no more than 6Mb/sec at the same location from my Nexus One and MyTouch 4g.
