[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] B6gSix:
So what is the next step ?

I have my droid flashed to metro pcs and the tech told me that it MAY mess up something when trying to root but he said since he had no hands on proof that he isnt positive.

but i do know that once the phone is rooted then flashed, you can switch to any rom without loosing you prl, esn, all that information.

but in my situation i would have to pay again to get it re flashed if anything does go wrong. so if anyones done this and was successful then let me knw how to and/or what to watch out for.

thanks

Thing is I cant find a thread that would guide me to installing stock samsung keyboards. I need the scandinavian keyboards and dictionarys...

can anyone help or point me in the right direction?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
I've never managed to install Norwegian keyboards/dictionaries on ROMs without them, haven't got the know-how. Never found a guide/tutorial for installing extra languages either, but can't say I've looked too much..

Leo's custom ROM Revolution has Norwegian support for KG6 in the newest version - 2.5 - I believe (haven't tried it yet, still on 2.4).

I got Better Keyboard from the market, it's grown on me so much it's my default now.

Lykke til;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LifeRunner:
Well wow, way to bump, but anyways, you think this'll work on ICS?

You see, I kind of have a problem with finding a replacement keyboard, with Norwegian Layout and the three scandinavian letters "Æ Ø Å"

Sure, they're there but not as their own button.

And I couldn't extract the stock samsung keyboard from the Android 4.0.3 "Samsung Version" either :C

Hello.

I need to sell my WiFi only Xoom because I got a 3G Xoom.

The buyer stated that he wants the stock image in it.

I've downloaded the Brazilian MZ604 WiFi only image from MotoDev.

My Xoom currently is running a Tiamat Kernel.

Is there anything special I need to know before flashing this image?

Is there a risk of bricking my xoom?

Sorry for the dumb questions, I'm just too afraid of bricking the device over my stupidity.

I generally get decent 4G speeds; anywhere from 3-5mbps down and 800-1400 kbps upload. I haven't checked in a while until today and I noticed my download speeds are significantly better. Not sure if it is just today, but I am averaging between 7-9 mbps download. Did anyone else notice better data speeds today?

Hopefully Sprint did some work because my 4g is all over the place and if I'm lucky I can get 3mbps

Do you have the wimax latest radio version?

I live in Kansas City, so i get pretty good 4g coverage almost everywhere. as far as speeds go im typically hitting 10mbps. sometimes as low as the upper 7s
[EVO 4G General] rockingout92:
at work i can usually hit 15mbps, I'll post pics. My friend has a T-bolt and always gets so jealous haha. But I've heard Boise was one of the first to get 4g, idk why
[EVO 4G General] Jfree3000:
According to Sprints coverage map I live in an excellent 4g area, now in real life that is not true. I called them not to long ago about my lack of 4g an connection issues and they did a service call, recorded radio numbers signal strength and all that jazz. A few days later I get a call from Sprint saying that the area I live in does not receive 4g very well (duh) and they notified Clear Wire about the issue etc. etc.

In short I live in a ****ty area but their (Sprint) map shows this magic blanket of 4g coverage that is not accurate by any standard. I have all the latest and greats radios etc but its just a no go for me. Sorry end of rant. :D

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadly Sto(R)m:
hi,

i was moving all apps/system/data/cache files to ext2 partition of my old device (samsung spica i5700) because of it is too slow. is it better to do it again on my desire z or not? or is only moving apps enough to get better speed?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
Uh not an expert but I don't think its needed. Definitely doesn't make the phone faster. All that only seem needed on old phones.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmcqueen:
a2sd is entirely useless on newer android offerings.

what were the reasons for a2sd's inception?

- not enough ram (swap, compcache)

- not enough internal memory (move apps to ext partition)

well, now that we have enough ram and enough internal memory, anyone who tells you you'll benefit from utilizing the sd card as ram/additional storage is flat out wrong. it's always preferable to keep things simple... a2sd is another complication in the system and at this point will only do more harm than good.

still boggles my mind that some devs are wrapping up A2SD into their roms... and I've never received an answer from any of them regarding how it is useful.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bharakrama:
The previous poster is correct. I had to use A2D on my T-Mobile G1 because I kept on running out of internal storage. However on my T-Mobile G2 I haven't had any issues due to the large internal storage.

If you are running out of space, move the apps that don't run constantly in the background or use often. Or just get rid of the apps you don't use anymore.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadly Sto(R)m:
I cannot remember from where but I read to not to use task killer applications. it said those types of programmes force to close applications and android system forces to open them again; and android is already clever to manage applications which is necessary and not. is this true?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadly Sto(R)m:
Is second value normal? I have no idea what it means and how it only has just 50 mb left. How can i increase free memory?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
super tiny picture.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bharakrama:
All the task killer app does is take up more memory and drain your battery. Android has gotten better since I'd say 2.2 at reclaiming memory taken up by applications when you are no longer using them. Also it would help if you uploaded a larger picture as it's impossible to see what your talking about.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadly Sto(R)m:
I am sorry, i added ths picture from XDA android app and didn't check it back. I wonder why Android OS (i don't know if it is ram or not) doesn't have more MB.

here is bigger than old one.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
'Android OS' is your ROM image, your OS, system, built-in apps, etc.. The only reason why its close to full is because you're running Sense, which is a HUGE ROM that takes up a lot of your OS space. (For example, running CM7 (AOSP based) I have 267mb free on my System ROM space).

'Internal data' is where your apps are being installed. That's your free space to install apps on built-into the phone. Unless that's full or critically low, don't worry about it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadly Sto(R)m:
I know sense based roms are slower than aosp roms. will second bar increase or decrease by installing apps or not?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
The bar is just how much of the 'System' space is getting taken up by your ROM. Just let it be. You're not going to make Sense any faster by messing with the System partition or the Internal partition. They're both internal storage, just being allotted differently to each side.

I'm not expressing how Sense is slower than AOSP, I'm expressing that Sense is LARGE, like in file size. There's a ton of extra mb of data in Sense that all takes up space inside the internal storage. Android is doing its job here, its putting the ROM in the System partition, the apps in the Internal storage, and larger apps on SDcard storage (the latter of which is the only one you can/should change by moving to internal storage).

The apps you download from the Market are being put on 'Internal' (or SD), not in 'System'.

Best buy has 8gb version on sale for only $279 right now. The black Friday sale ends Saturday though. They should have plenty in stock as this is not a popular tablet. I'm seriously considering getting one since they sold out of the 16gb Asus Transformer for only $249. I'm doing my research now comparing the two. The Thrive has the full size ports going for it. I am concerned about the battery life and if this thrive has IPS screen like transformer. From the demo version at best buy, it didn't look like the screen was looking as good as the Transformer although same screen resolution. Also heard this thrive doesn't have gorilla glass. What can you owners tell me if any of this Is true or not. I'd rather have more storage but not an issue since this tkes full size SD cards.

Lately I've noticed that my GPS is turning on momentarily while the screen is off.

I don't have latitude enabled, or any apps which use GPS and no widgets being used.

Is there any application I can use to see what is using the GPS? I've used better battery stats and the only thing related to gps is the wakelock "NetworkLocationActiveCollector" by com.google.android.apps.maps.Maps

I don't have a decent example but below you can see the gps has come on momentarily over night when the phone isn't being used. Normally there'll be about 4-5 occurances, is it something to do with the phone caching wifi locations when "Use wireless networks" is ticked

Green Crush V1 release

(This is NOT a theme chooser theme! Flash in CWR)

UPDATE: This theme will work on EITHER the G2X or the Samsung Vibrant running Trigger build 8/16!!! This is tested and working!!!

I have decided to go ahead and release Green Crush version 1. I have gone through and touched just about everything in framework and systemUI to get the dark look and feel i was shooting for. I am also one that tends to like a nice melding of colors, so all things take a very smooth transition.

I will be adding a themed phone, contacts, MMS and calendar apks in the very near future.

A few touches added...

Corrected the date overlay so it no longer hides the status bar...

Accurate battery

Fly-in animations

Transparent pop-up menus

Button highlights

... blah blah

All the good basics...

Please note this theme is for Trigger 2x Build 15 8/16 (P999). As always, make a nandriod (But i have tested things and all is just fine).

Many many thanks to Romann and Annex from EDT!

To finish things off, if you find you would like this theme, but in a different color let me know!

You can get my theme HERE

That notification bar looks really nice! I might give it a try. :)
[EVO 4G General] brihyn:
Apologies if this is a noob question. I didn't see any obvious answer to this, and I'm guessing I"m not the only one to question this.

I have a rooted stock 2.2, rooted with Unrevoked3. Now that there's a root exploit for GB, I'm trying to make sense of what I need to do to get the OTA installed.

Reading through the Unrevoked site, it looks like I need to find the appropriate .img first to restore me back to original? And Unrevoked's site directed me back here, but i didn't see where to find the correct file.

Second, I assume, and correct me if I'm wrong, that I simply copy the correct .img file back to my phone (which directory?) and boot up into recover to restore? At that point, i'll be able to get and update with the OTA?

-Brian
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
Why not flash a stock rooted GB ROM?
[EVO 4G General] brihyn:
That would certainly be the easiest solution, but i'd rather go OTA for a couple reasons:

1) while absolutely nothing against the great work the devs have done, I've gone back and forth on this and really end up wanting to keep mine stock (with a lot of sprint crap-ware frozen)

2) and a more direct reason for my question in the first place, this isn't just for my own phone, which i don't mind "hacking" with as much, but also for a coworker's phone I've rooted, the wife's (don't want to mess too much with hers) and even the in-law's two phones.

3) least required reason, I have very little actual use for Root, especially on the other listed phones, but the primary requirements on why i've rooted theirs is for wireless tethering and freezing of crapware.
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
Umm, the stock rooted roms are exactly that: stock, but rooted. Everything is still there.

Again, flashing a stock rooted rom is NO different than taking the ota, except you will stay rooted and will not have to re-root.

OK, well if you don't need root, then take the ota and you will be unrooted.
[EVO 4G General] brihyn:
Ok, fair points. So which rom(s) would be the original stock roms with nothing but Root added?
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
They would be in the threads that say Stock ROMs

Hi Guys,

ich have a problem with my Galaxy S2. Since I flashed Litening ROM 5 two weeks ago i'm experiencing a loading delay. It doesn't matter if I try to load my phone over usb or "normal" power cable, but it takes about 2 minutes till my phone recognizes that the cable is plugged in. Also if the phone is off and I unplug the cable the loading icon persists...

Has anyone experienced similar?

Would be glad if somebody could help me with this.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenfly:
I have had this EVO for a while and rooted and the works. Well about a couple weeks ago, my WiFi seems like the connection seems to be really weak all of a sudden and its not my router. The signal is really weak anywhere I go and often loosed connection even if I'm 1 room away from my wireless n router. And the same goes for any Starbucks or McDonald's. And this all started about a month ago. Anything i can do to remedy this? I've tried flashing different Roms and kernels.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Did you try flashing back to stock rom with a stock kernal? If that didn't work, then it's a hardware problem. If you are under warranty, sprint will replace it. If not, if you have TEP they will replace it after your warranty is up, if you dont have TEP then you are out of luck

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
- Going to another ROM from CM7?

You can go back and forth freely between CM7 and other ROMs via ROM Manager or ClockworkMod recovery as the file systems are the same and nandroid backup/restore works to go between ROMs.

That's what it says in the first post of cyanogenmod rom :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arj154:
I know you can do a nandroid backup but i was thinking more along the lines of running it off the sd card or somehow partitioning the system partition so you have 2 of them there. If i did the nandroid way, i would have to keep a large portion reserved for the backup and i would have to do it every time i wanted to play a game which would ruin the life of the flash memory and it would be a pain generally. I saw on All About Android there was an app called boot manager but i dont know if that will work on the SGS II

Since a few days i've lost all audio from device. It doesn't play any ringtone or system sounds at all, native or mp3.

All volume settings are untouched, no silent mode whatsoever.

When i start music player it 'starts' playing, but song time bar (sorry for bad english) doesn't move and no sound is coming out of the device.

Plugging in the headset makes no difference, no sound there either.

When tapping the play/pause button in the player i eventually get a FC for music player and device lags alot for a few minutes.

A video plays, but without sound.

The only sound i have is from speech calls, but switching to speaker doesn't work.

The FM radio works normal (through headset).
