tought so, but is there no way to take out the memory and put it on a new motherboard or somthing like that?

Of course you can do that, but that's a massive undertaking and would cost you 2 phones.

i am still looking for an solution to recover my data from a dead sgs2 is there a way to do it, even if i have to destroy the phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gringo_ie:
Hi lector007 ,

Did you ever figure out a way to do this?

The exact same thing happened to me and I'm desperate to get all the videos of my daughter off the internal memory.

I just can't beleive that it's not possible.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thank you
[Galaxy S II General] snowfallen:
Good day,

I've seen this issue discussed but it didn't quite fit my experience in all regards.

So here's the story, SGS2 bought from Orange Romania (Branded) then unlocked with Chainfire's app and used on Vodafone Romania.

When switching to WCDMA only and using the packet data, the internet speed is overall slower than my previous Galaxy S, most of the time pages just taking ages to load or even failing to load due to timeout, even though the H+/H/3G signs appear (depending on the area) and seem to be communicating.

Also call drops have been encountered in areas with full coverage (where my former phones never has problems).

I must mention that:

1. The APN was fully configured for the SIM's network.

2. I tried all kinds of firmwares (KG6,KG5,KG3,KG2,branded Orange Romania firmwares,branded Vodafone firmwares) and the results are the same, it just can't keep the connection up, probably due to constantly changing bands.

3. I tried disabling "fast dormancy", didn't help.

4. I tried using the KD5 modem that I have read that it sort of fixes this bug, still connection drops.

5. Being in areas with bad coverage is out of the question since my former SGS1 and my Nokias never had such problems in these exact same places.

Could it be due to the branding process and the files Orange inputs into the device? Normally I should be able to unlock any carrier branded phone and use it on any other network with no further change but the APN for mobile internet (at least that's what I did on my SGS1 and it worked fine).

Any word of advice would be welcome and thanks in advance to the ones that bother to read this wall of text through :)

I've been searching around for a music player app that can edit the tags easily like you can through gtunes. You just have to long press and there is an option to edit tags unlike the stock music player. I like the stock music player because of the functionality of the equalizer and the visualization but this is the one thing that bugs me since my music isn't all in order by artist can someone point me in the right direction or add this to the stock player

[LG Optimus 2x] schmak:
Hi all.

Been playing around with a 2X since launch of the device and never had an issue until 3 days ago... I was on Cyanogenmod RC1 with 218Ril. All of a sudden the device locks up with the touch buttons and the screen on. After 3 or 4 battery pulls it will start back up.

I‘ve tried different RILs and 3 different Cyanogenmod releases and still experience the issue. I‘m now running BlazingDragon2 with the leaked Gingerbread RIL and only get the issue if the facebook application is installed, or randomly when its on the wall charger. Using the charger in my car is OK.

Any idea what might be the cause of the issue?

Cheers in advance :D

I've noticed that the latest version of two games by "Cooper Media Corp." are attempting to use su on my phone. The games are "Paradise Island" and "My country". I'm not sure what they are trying to do, the Super User logs don't seem to record the command attempted. See attached screenshot.

I replaced su with:

#!/system/bin/sh

echo "`date +%F-%T` $$ Args: $@" >> /sdcard/su.log

echo -n '# '
while read line; do
echo `date +%F-%T` $$ Cmd: $line >> /sdcard/su.log

if [ "$line" = "exit" ]; then
echo `date +%F-%T` $$ Exiting >> /sdcard/su.log
exit 0

echo -n '# '
done

And it logged:

[HTC EVO 3D] borgqueenx:
So..i want a answer. Surely some developer or a teardown must have got results.

I mean if we really have dual 5mp cameras...then why the hell cant they shoot both at full 5mp power at desame time?

Is the second camera simply 2mp and are the specs lies?

Is the hardware not able to shoot 1080p for some reason?

Especially for the evo 3d's running at 1,5 - 1,8ghz...

I would like a developer or someone who knows about this stuff...why all 3d phones cant simply shoot 3d pics in their native resolution..and why 3d video is not 1080p...and 2d is not 1080p...

Hopefully we can get a clear answer this weekend?:)
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Stock SD card probably couldn't handle the continuous throughput not to mention the sensor would have trouble delivering a reasonable frame rate (definitely not 30fps...not even close) in all but absolutely perfect lighting...and I have my doubts about that even being possible. The sensor and the SoC are not only capable of it, they are designed to do it (It's in the specs of the MSM8660 and 1080p is a hair over 2mp)....however the system, as a whole integrated device, is likely not capable of doing it in a way that wouldn't be embarrasing. 720p already sucks enough as it is...if they can't get that right I wouldn't even want to see their attempt at 1080p.

I may very well be wrong...in fact I hope I am, but I doubt it.

EDIT: Regarding the 5mp 3D, however, I am confidant that is very possible....so long as the cameras are individually addressable. I think the choice of 2.5mp for 3D was a practical one. Since it uses SBS-half (Side by side - half resolution) the image is stored in a 5mp file, 2.5mp for the left and 2.5mp for the right. Though I think there may be a performance penalty when dealing with a 10mp SBS-half image file (5mp for the left, 5mp for the right). It would be idiotic for them to throw in a 2mp sensor just for 3D....it would likely be more expensive to source another part instead of just double the quantity of the same one...again, I may very well be wrong about that but I doubt it.
[HTC EVO 3D] borgqueenx:
I hope you are right about the second part...

2.5mp + 2.5mp doesnt make a 5mp photo. The cameras both take desame picture but with different focus, if i remember correctly.

Also i find it stopid that browsing pictures makes the 3d effect kick in after a secomd...not immediatly..
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
2.5mp+2.5mp side-by-side doesn't make a 5mp quality photo...in 3D or otherwise, but it is in fact a 5mp file. There are 5 million pixels in the file and there ain't no way around that...Half of those get spent on depth. Besides we can only view them at 480x270, so, the only benefit you would get aside from a higher quality 'master' copy wouldn't be realized unless you viewed it on something with a higher resolution, like a 3D TV that does SBS-full...but even then you are barely cracking 2mp of resolution.

...either way I know I would feel better knowing my 3D pictures were at least moderately future-proof....and don't even get me going on the "720p" 3D video--if you haven't figured it out yet don't try, it'll just upset you.

You are doing something wrong. Make sure you put that file on the root of your sdcard. Meaning not in any folders. It has to be named exactly like this. PC36IMG.zip Sometimes operating systems hide the filetype so if you added .zip to PC36IMG try removing the .zip. Also make sure you only have one PC36IMG on your sdcard at a time.

Fix for this is to go to applications and clear data. If that doesn't work, move all the apps that you have on your sd card over to your phone. Use a file explorer and find the .android_secure folder on your sd card. Reboot. Then go to the market and start downloading. You'll be good. Once rebooted you can move everything back to sd card. That folder gets corrupted sometimes while switching roms. Guess I need to write this up, been seeing a lot of it lately. :D

Besides the one on the battery and the clearly visible one on the upper right of the phone there is a hidden water indicator in the crack along the left side of the case. BELOW the void sticker.

[XV6700, PPC-6700 ROM Development] jm017@msn.com:
If anybody is still interested in GPS for this model, here is how to get it to work. Register at Skyhook and download their cab for winmo. Then download gpsviewer. I am using Pocketnavigator free version for mapping. I start gpsviewer first till I get position, then start the mapping program. I use this with no connection as the phone is not enabled (free). If any interest I will give more detail.

Since this is a fairly simple process; here is a quick tutorial;

1) Download the Skyhook cab file. I had difficulty finding it on their site but if you Google Skyhookvgpsppc50 you will find it

2) Download GpsViewer.PPC300_2577 cab.

3) I am not sure you need this but it cannot hurt to have it. Unhide external GPS settings.

HKLM/CONTROLPANEL/GPS SETTINGS

add Group and give value of 2(dec)

this will add the GPS icon in your phone settings.

Here are the screenshots of settings that work for me. I could not get a screenshot of Mapfactor Nav so I used GoogleMaps as an example. I encourage others to experiment with the settings to see what else might work. Once again my phone is not activated but as long as wifi is turned on the GPS works(doesn't need to be connected however). To get this working initially

though you do need to have a wifi connection at least for the registration screen in WPS and to get your first several fixes. You may have to register at Skyhook to start this process I did not show my username but I used the one I registered with as a developer. Good luck I hope this works for others.
