[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjoannou2001:
sorry about this thread but i am getting a bit confused with flashing roms on my s2. my handset is not even 3 weeks old and i am already sending it back due to the drainage of the battery. what i mean by that is that i must of flashed the handset like over 40 times till i found the rom that would not drain my battery so fast. i tried cognition, villainrom, batista and everything and my battery was going like hell. within like ten minutes of just having wifi on and just doing my normal browsing my battery from fully charged went down to 85% and that is with data package off and hardly any widgets on. and all the time my display was the highest thing in my battery stats taking the most usage of my battery.

anyway i am sending the handset back and hopefully they will send me a new one. what i need to know is that can install any rom on my new handset once i receive it or do i need to find one which matches my firmware. ie say im ke7 do i need to find a rom with baseband ke7 or can i just flash it anyway say with kg6 baseband?]

sorry if my questions sound stupid i just do not want to flash for the sake of it if its going to harm my handset again.

cheers
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Multiple flashing is a bad move to solve battery drain .

You can flash any rom .

Baseband is the modem not the firmware .

Why mess up the phone the minuet you get it in your hands again .Far better to read and learn how and what.

better battery stats .

thanks for replying back JJ and yeah i kinda realized now that it was a bad move flashing alot but can you help me with this then. why is it when i flashed a custom rom my display was sky high in battery usage display and now that im back on stock its normal and i mean 30% and lower?

i had an iphone 4 and was into my jailbreaking and etc but i feel like rooting and flashing is a whole lot more confusing or shall i say pro wise.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjoannou2001:
[QUOTE=JJEgan

Baseband is the modem not the firmware .

but does the baseband matter in what rom to flash though? say i have ke7 baseband do i need to find a custom rom with ke7 or can i upgrade it to the baseband the rom comes with?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjoannou2001:
i have already sent the handset bk today so hopefully they will send me the new one by the end of the week. problem is when i put the stock rom back in and upgraded the firmware through kies officially everything on my battery stats looked normal. so i really do not what the problem was with the handset when i flashed a custom rom and made the battery drain quickly? and also worried that seeing that they might send me the handset back and then i would not be able to flash a custom rom? whats your advice please JJ

USB Storage sometimes doesn't mount on my Nexus S 4G. Anybody else? It'll mount usually the next time I reboot it though.

I notice it usually when I go into the Camera app, and it says it can't take a picture because the storage area isn't mounted.

Has anyone gotten Newsr to work on the NC. It seems to be one Android app most like Zite for the Ipad that I miss (as I can't get the IPad away from my 4-year-old). Or is there an Android app like Zite (not a big fan of pulse).

Thanks.

Newsr won't ever work most likely. It's a 3.0+ app only. The NC is on 2.1.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strung:
Has anyone here had any random popping sounds from there phone, from the earpiece. Every now and then I will be sitting there and my phone will start making these faint staticky popping sounds and I have to restart it to get it to go away. Sound like somebody is snapping a rubber band.

I called Samsung and they said it is a very common issue. Unfortunately, they couldn't give any other details other than to reboot the phone.

Should I exchange the phone?

EDIT: I think it may be triggered by bluetooth pairing, unpairing, and then charging. Anybody else confirm?

Hello,

Yesterday I installed Wolf's package. Now I redid the whole thing with the new V3.5

My question:

Are speedfixes and tweaks included in the Wolf_GB_2.3_TW_V3.5.zip?

-Neocore only gives me 30.7 fps

-Quadrant only gives my 1100 points

And I'm pretty sure I installed the package correctly.

Hi

I'm very, very new in developing, i'm developing a app in Eclipse and my problem is that I cant get the app to scroll. What I mean is that when the screen is filled out with diffrent stuff that I want in my app, I can't get it to scroll down and making my app "longer" ?

I know this is not the best explanation, but I hope someone knows what I mean and can help? ;)

I've been using the nexus one since it came out, however recently a friend of mine is selling his DHD, should I go for it or I won't feel a difference? (except the screen, ofcourse. :p)
[Desire HD General] ste1164:
There won't be much difference. The hardware is faster though.
[Desire HD General] mr.r9:
I had a Desire then moved to an HD.

I would say that the size difference will shock you in every aspect; screen, width & height.

You'll definitely miss amoled but after a week you'll be fine.

However, you'll find the HD faster and smoother.

The biggest problem you'll find is the battery, it will barely last a day with 3g.
[Desire HD General] jags_the1:
You wont feel any difference porformance wise.. And desire hd days are long gone, better to move on with newer and better ones.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] ashman5:
Not sure what the terminology is for what I'm looking for. I currently use my Tab for in car entertainment for my child. With the speakers on the sides, I have to turn the volume up pretty high for him to hear. With the left speaker aiming at the driver, that can get annoying.

What I'm looking for is a passive device that would connect to the sides of the Tab to divert the sound of the speakers more toward someone sitting in front of the Tab.

something like the SoundJaw for ipad

soundjaw.com

Any ideas?

thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] burhanistan:
Some kind of clip on directional cones would help with this (I've noticed this by chance when holding the thing with both hands while lying down). Maybe in your case, though, a Bluetooth headset or speaker might work best.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamjt:
Can you connect multiple devices to a USB hub (powered or unpowered) at once and transfer files between them? This would be using the USB adapter with a usb hub to connect a thumb drive or card reader and a usb hard drive and copying files between them.

Is this possible on the gtab with the stock rom?

My return period is coming very close and I haven't been able to get my hands on a USB adapter to try this myself.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] francis1987:
I assume the software actually supports this since tables like the transformer with the dock have multiple USB ports...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NPuter:
I would also like to know... it would be awesome if I could hook up my camera and external hard drive to transfer the pictures - if that is possible, I will no longer have to take my laptop with me on vacation. I know transferring the files to the tap and then to the drive would probably work, but my CF card is twice the size of my tabs memory... I need to skip the taps memory all together.

Use of USB hub with stock GT-P7510

I WAS able to connect the EPL-1PLRBE (Samsung USB adapter) to the Samsung dock side port with the GT-7510 docked, then plugged in a SanDisk MicroMate SD card reader, plug in an 8GB SD card and my Tab opened up "My files" and gave me the directory for the SD card in 'Root/Storages/usb/...' whereupon I was able to access the files on the SD card, ie., view the pics, read the pdf's, play the wmv's, mp4's and 3gp's. This all was accomplished with NO power besides the Tab's internal battery. I can also copy from/to the SD card plugged into the MicroMate reader with no external power.

I then hooked up a Gigaware 4-port USB hub to the EPL-1PLRBE, plugged the SanDisk MicroMate SD card reader with an 8GB SD card inserted (you have to power on with the devices already plugged in to the hub for the TAB to recognize it-it will give the USB trident symbol in the systray if you are successful) and was able to duplicate opening "My files" and reading/writing to the 8GB SD card.

Immediately afterward, I powered down, added a second USB device, a digital picture watch, to the hub. I powered up and with the second device on the unpowered hub the TAB would not recognize either device or display the USB trident in the systray.

With the TAB still on, I added the Samsung USB power adapter to the hub, in the fourth slot. Without powering down, the TAB thought for 5-10 seconds, then displayed the USB trident in the systray and brought up "My files" which now recognized both devices, and which position on the hub it was located. I deduced this by the foldername in "My files" - the first device was in the first slot, and its folder name was 'sda' with the second device in the third USB slot with the folder name of 'sdc'

Hey all. I have a galaxy S 4G and I already rooted it. Am currently trying to install the Bionix Frost ROM. Also some lock screens. The problem is every time I try to reboot to recovery it says installation aborted. I don't know what to do. Can someone please help me. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
Are you trying to use the stock recovery or cwm recovery
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
You need to use krylons final cwm. Also, to make your life easier, push the tweaks into the zip file prior to flashing. Init.d. Kg6 fugu. Updated builds prop...or just flash icbinb.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
How do you push tweaks into a zip file prior to flashing?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
are you trying to install lock screens from the vibrant if so it wont work

as the vibrant uses amand scripting and sgs4g uses edify

hince why your getting installation aborted
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
the bionix frost rom zip file. open up the cwm flashable for the tweaks and you will notice they are in a specific folder structure. the rom has the same folder structure. move the file from the cwm flashable to the rom zip file following the same folder structure and replace the file in the rom zip file. for example, if the cwm flashable has folders system/app, then move the file to the system/app folder in the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
that works to but i was wondering what he was trying to replace lol

so he doesnt soft brick
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
o i was just going to say build.prop, fugu from kg6, bootanimations and sounds, perhaps the launchers, he can build in his apps via the data folders all prior to flashing, the icbinb init.d/ext4 optimizations and so forth. nothing too crazy. ;)

Hi All,

Is there any way to modify the musicwidget.apk in stock 2.3.3 ROM so that it can work with ADW Launcher?

After using the new stock music player, I have started liking it too much and want to get rid of all 3rd party music players. The only issue is that the music widget cant be used on other launchers. Can we make some changes like changing the manifest file or some other code so that it will work in the 3rd party launchers?

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] bbsrailfan:
ok, no go on this yet. meanwhile I have been discussing offlist with phillu97 on the possibilities and found out that there is a widget in the market called "Phantom Music Widget" which works with all stock and most 3rd party music players.

It works by emulating the headset button event. However the implementation is too buggy. Anyone here willing to experiment with the codes from Phantom widget to see if it works out for the musicwidget? I have the app and can attach the apk if someone wants it for experimental purposes.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] pheel:
its way too ... complicated. I just wont budge no matter what. But try widgetsoid. I'm thinking of building that from ground up, but only with the play, pause, fwd and rwd features. its sorta gonna look like the powercontrol.

unless anyone else have any ideas?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] bbsrailfan:
Why not re-use the skin & graphics from the existing widget? In anycase the stock widget has those 3 buttons only.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] pheel:
cos that defeats the whole purpose since you cant use it on other launchers

[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
no...just no..
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
See above... Wp7 did awesome to get away from the trainwreck UIs that plague android and winmo. They have created the single cleanest and best looking OS in doing so. Sense would just much it up and I'm glad HTC doesn't have that much access because if I had to see that stupid flip clock I'd likely leave my phone for dead.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Casey_boy:
The only Sense UI aspect that *could* be done is to utilise tiles. I've seen mock-ups of this somewhere. However, we don't have that much flexibility with the tiles - i.e. no double tiles for the flippy clock and no direct way (without push implementation) to change what's on the tiles.
[Windows Phone 7 General] marko987:
ok m8 but we are not same some of us dont like that simple square ugly look of windows phone.THATS WHY i STARTED THIS TO SEE IF WE CAN USE WP7 ON OUR WAY.Soon hd2 will be old tec and we gona need something new.I love 6.5 because I can costum everything on it icons,sliders,look,levels I started to make my own stuff in photoshop and I dont like that stupid iphone clon os everything locked and all about money.I hate iphone but if have to chose ios or wp7 how is now ios is more OK for me

and yea I forgot 6.5 without sense looks nicer then wp7 and if you dont like flip clock no problem go little in 6.5 threads and look what those fantastic devs done of 6.5 IF SOME ONE OF THEM READ THIS ,,,,TY SO MUCH TO ALL OF YOU GUYS FOR MAKING 6.5 STILL ALIVE
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
if your perogative is customization then you are on the wrong OS. Wp7 is a completelnew oS and is not an extension of windows mobile. The fact that it's locked down does not make it an iPhone clone and I must say, you're either trolling or really showing your ass here. Sense won't happen, you would have to hack the phone extensively, get htcs code, convert it to the proper format, unlock APIs that don't exist to make a tile that is fully live, and pretty much build it from scratch all with the potential lawsuit from HTC for doing so. That's just for that hideous clock. The next option would be to port android or wm6.5 onto your wp7 device but that's counter-intuitive at best and with winmo likely impossible. Either way, you're out of luck.
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
Android would be your best bet, you can customise it to look how you want AND HTC devices will obviously have sense. Even if sense could be done on WP7 as you dont like the OS itself its pointless as eventually you will have to deal with some aspects of it. And if you are happy living entirely within the sense environment again, an android device with sense is the solution.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Casey_boy:
Having thought about it, you could create an app - not a true UI like Sense.

You wouldn't suffer from the same problems, it'd be completely customizable and it could be instant resume...

Sure, there'd still be problems - i.e. you couldn't have shortcuts to apps etc. Oh and it probably wouldn't get into the Marketplace if it looked too much like Sense, so you'd have to sideload it.

I am newbie in this foruma nd new in Android. I am going to get the Incredible S later this week. I would like to try to root the Incredible S. I read some of the treads, but I am a bit confuse here, hope someone can help me out. Here are my questions.

1) Can I root my phone with Unrevoked3 ? If so can I use the S-On tools to put it back to s-on for warranty ?

2) Before I do the root, I would like to backup my Rom. All I need to do is go to Hboot and choose backup. It will save my rom image right? If any bad thing happen, I can S-On than put it back my rom and everything will back to the factory setting ?

3)How would I know if my phone been rooted? I saw a thread said if there is an Icon (superuser) in the menu it means I am rooted?

I know these are stupid questions, hope someone can help me out in here.

Thanks in advance
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
1. No, Unrevoked3 does not work on the Incredible S. You need to use AlphaRev/Unrevoked Revolutionary (http://revolutionary.io/)

2. You need to have a custom recovery in place such as ClockworkMod to backup image of your ROM. Revolutionary has an option to install ClockworkMod during it's procedure. In order to restore the phone to factory settings, you need to make sure you have a RUU (Rom Update Utility) that matches your phone's version.

3. After you install ClockworkMod, you will need to manually root and add superuser to your phone. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1122694
