[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
oh yeh, derrr, that was stupid of me :)

Normally a full stock rom should be 3 parts, PDA(rom+kernel), modem, and CSC.

I havent seen it in one file before.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
Actually, ROM can be one single TAR file. Inside the TAR can be a bunch of files.

See the attached screenshot.

As you can see, it contains:

boot.bin = bootloader

factoryfs.img = system (rom)

modem.bin = modem firmware

zImage = kernel

cache.img

hidden.img

param.lfs

Sbl.bin
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HotlipsH:
First thing you should do is confirm that the md5 checksum adds up and your not trying to flash with broken files. As long as your phone is getting into download mode and is detected by Odin your not bricked.

You can flash with either separate kernel, modem firmware or a merged PDA tar the end result is the same.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
Make sure you kill KIES using Task Manager as well.

If it still fails, try testing your system's RAM using MEMTEST86+, you might have a faulty computer.

Guys when u are writing something on galaxy s2 do u think the dictionary sucks i mean is there any other dictionary that similar to iphone or HTC?
[Galaxy S II General] Archer:
Try SwiftKey. It adds stuff to its dictionary by analysing your SMS and emails, so when it predicts something, it's usually going off things you've typed before. I've had full sentences predicted for me just by starting the first word!

It is a paid app, but it's very much worth it. Also (another little treat it has) you can turn cursor keys on and off. It's worth paying just for that! :D

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey
[Galaxy S II General] jasdev:
I have swift key u know its not really not lukw iphone or HTC
[Galaxy S II General] Archer:
Personally, I think it's better than the HTC and iPhone keyboards, but that's obviously just my opinion. If you're struggling with SwiftKey then I think you need to just take your time a bit more when typing, until you get the hang of it, because SwiftKey really does make typing a breeze, even without using the predictive text.
[Galaxy S II General] O and O:
I find that the dictionary is quite good ... BUT ... HTC and the default Android keyboard include contact names and more locations and standard words like GMail and android (with an uppercase 'A'), Samsung doesn't do that.

Also anyone know how to stop the keyboard from trying to always autocorrect, I want to see suggestions but I rather not have it try and force a word on me. Also why must it add every one word to the dictionary, not every word I time is worthy ~.~ ...
[Galaxy S II General] O and O:
Any developments on this? Also anyone know how I can turn the whole add to my dictionary thing off automatically. I want to choose what I want to add not for everything to just add itself if it is a new word.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphonetraitor:
I just flashed you miui and I get no data on my phone.

Everything else seems to be ok.

Can we change the cpu clock settings?

Also when I added the daemon updater all kinds of force closes happened and then the screen didn't even fit properly if you know what I mean!

Back on the original, but I can't get data. Have set the APN that didn't fix it.

I'm on vodafone UK for a few weeks then will be back on t-mobile usa.

I read in one post that baseband settings needed to be downloaded for the carrier, I messaged the guy but got no response.

Can you help?

Thanks for all you do!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphonetraitor:
This is all fixed.

MIUI rocks and thederekjay is way cool man!
[HTC Sensation] pedrohp:
Hi there,

Back in old HTC Diamond days, we had an app called QuickGPS, witch we used weekly to download aGPS data, so our GPS fix would be much faster.

I'm new to Android: The Sensation is my first device.

Is there a QuickGPS version (or similar app) for the Sensation? Or for Android in general? How can i download aGPS data?
[HTC Sensation] Gushfevah:
As far as i'm aware, Android downloads the latest aGPS data on every boot/reboot.

You could also download GPS Status & Toolbox from the market, and that will also manage and download the aGPS state.
[HTC Sensation] pedrohp:
I see...

What if at boot time, the system does not have internet access?

What if i do not reboot my phone for 3 months?

I think there must be another routine in the system... I already have GPS Status, but it sucks to use GPS Status to download it every time i want to use a map ou route...
[HTC Sensation] Gushfevah:
If you don't have internet access I think it queue's It's download up for when you do. You wouldn't be able to update with GPS status to manage aGPS if you had no internet anyway.
[HTC Sensation] Gushfevah:
having looked in the HD2 forum where they have been implementing aGPS, from what i can see aGPS is injected in the following situations.

When you turn off GPS in setting and turn it on again.

When you keep GPS on and reboot.

When you keep GPS on and run GPS Status. (or any similar apps to download AGPS)

I would assume this is the case with all android devices too, but i may be wrong.

I never see any proof that aGPS has been downloaded, but i always get fast locks, so it must just do it quietly in the background.
[HTC Sensation] pedrohp:
Hi there,

Thanks for the answer. Downloading data as GPS reciver cycles ON/OFF makes much more sense to me.

Hope that it's the case. Yesterday i could get a quick fix. Will try again today.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
Hey guys, I'm looking to buy a att branded Nexus S, found one on Craigslist for $300..

I think its a fair price, Guy is local and I'm tired of my Inspire.

Reasons I would like to buy it, smaller screen size, pure aosp, battery life...

I just got the inspire about 3 months ago and will more then likely keep it..

What are things I should look for to make sure it is the real deal or just in general?

Any help is appreciated honestly.

I know I could wait for something better to come out ina few months but I don't use my phone for gaming, just purely alot of web browsing, texting and surfing forums..
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Only advantage to the Inspire is screen size. I have owned a Inspire and currently own a NS4G and I like both, but Nexus is smooth. When I buy phones I really just check cosmetic and play with it and check about phone to see what its on and browse the interwebs for a few.
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
Make sure it is truly the i9020a version and not the i9020t or some other variant. Otherwise it isn't truly the AT&T phone (would not work with 3G otherwise).
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
What should the about read besides 2.3.4 which kernal is stock etc and thanks for the replies guys keep then coming please
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
Does the a and t stand for the carriers? Obviously att and T-Mobile?
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
Nexus S phones do not have the carrier branding. Only Samsung and Google in the back.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
Basically I was asking if the "a" at the end of the model number is for at&t?
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Well to be honest I don't know for sure. But you would assume so or its a huge coincidence (sp).
[Nexus S General] bozzykid:
Yes, that is what the 'A' stands for.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
Thanks, what do you guys think about price, seems reasonable?
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
I feel you could do better.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
He did note its almost bnib, he ended up getting a deal on something else and wants to get rid of it, still waiting for the pictures I asked for..
[Nexus S General] ericshmerick:
I paid $399 on eBay for my sealed I9020A and feel it was worth it. I had a SGSII as well and chose the Nexus S due to AOSP and hate for touchwiz.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
I had the Captivate before and hated it, I'm solely sold on AOSP, he just messaged me back saying I could just look up a picture, said he's had it for 2 weeks and its still in the box
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
So his other phone has no camera, does gsm phones need to have a clean esn?
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
That I am not sure but, I told him I wanted to me up and he goes, ok my friend works downtown and ill confirm with him, I'm assuming he posted for a friendz but then goes on to say the Guy, who apparently owns his own business.

So sounds kinda sketchy to me, if a Guy can run a business downtown why can't he post his own ad?
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
Def sounds odd, I would look elsewhere
[Nexus S General] bigtoysrock:
Get the IMEI # and call att check it. If he wont give it to you then move on! Gsm phones don't have esn they take sims and you could end up with a stolen phone and not even know it. I know here in Austin they are going for less than what that guy is asking. Just seen a white one for $260 and it was squeky clean.
[Nexus S General] p00kienrayray:
The AT&T nexus s is only $99 on contract, so $300 for LBNIB isn't sketchy--but the white ns for $260 kind of is. I say meet with the guy if you like the price, inspect for damages and all accessories, then stick your sim in and wait for that 3G or H symbol to pop up. Also make test calls and take pics to ensure speakerphone/mic/camera/etc. is working.

I just bought a LBNIB for $325, so $300 is a good deal imo.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
So I just talked to him again, he sent the pictures like he said he would, sweet baby jesus she looks fine! lol

Turns out the reason he mentioned his friend was because they are old business partners and the actual seller wouldn't be able to meet me in person, because he would be at work, so he is going to give the phone to his friend, who he trusts to meet up with me.

I didn't ask the guy where he worked but his friend works downtown here and it's not to far for me, so hopefully all goes well..
[Nexus S General] ericshmerick:
Hmm, let us know how that goes. Sounds too good to be true.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
well after I posted this, he texted me saying he would give me his partners info, haven't heard anything yet...lol
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
who know's maybe he is reading this thread haha!
[Nexus S General] TheBassman369:
Battery life is definitely better than the Inspire. Hopefully you can get it.
[Nexus S General] p00kienrayray:
Good luck! A lot of ppl see the nexus s as being outdated hardware compared to the dual cores and fail to realize how great a phone it still is so they under value it. Great news for us.
[Nexus S General] bdpyo:
So here's how my day started, I get waken up by my landlord banging on my door, he informs me my truck was broken I to again, what ever atleast they did not steal anything this time.

Just annoying and is gonna cost me 90$ to repair. I text the seller and inform him I wouldn't be able to do it today then text him 5 minutes llater saying never mind I will be there at the set meet time.

I clean my truck out, hit the ATM and get the money, I text him and let him know I'm on the way.

He confirms the meeting time, as I finally get there he sends me a text saying its rooted and unlocked now, I told him I wanted it stock.

I say fine I will still look at it.

He texts me back saying the Guy is running late and wont be around for another 3 hours.

I told him the best I could do was to wait 1 more hour or I'm walking away and all he said it was not possible.

What a ****, I'm obviously gonna keep looking to sketchy for me and he's already wasted my time.

Oh and if you guys are wondering, IT IS NOT a good idea to wear flip flops when cleaning shattered glass from your car or truck! Lol

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jrjmpls:
I have an app (MobileNoter) that won't remember settings for username, password, etc. I think this is because I uninstalled and reinstalled it. I think a hard reset might fix the problem. But I've heard somewhere that I might be able to fix the problem by using a chown command to change ownership of some of the files. This would avoid having to resetup everything after a hard reset.

Can anyone tell me how to do this and what files to change?

So all I did was rename the: htclockscreen.apk - to: htclockscreen.bck

And Now I have a lag free Lock Screen :)
[HTC Sensation] shammanCZ:
i have no lag since 2.3.4 .. not to mention rooting sensation is direct contradiction to "Realy easy"
[HTC Sensation] etawful:
Thanks. I don't know that I've had any real lag issues, but I do like the option of getting rid of the "lock ring" lock screen and going with the standard Android lock screen.

I haven't decided whether to keep it like this or not, but I kind of like it.

I'll have to adjust to using a swipe across the screen instead of bottom to top to unlock though.

EDIT: Neat . . . it displays Charging (xx%) on this lock screen. That's kind of handy.
[HTC Sensation] sn0warmy:
You guys are Ca-razy. The lock ring lock screen with the ability to instantly go to one of four frequently used apps is one of the main reasons I got this phone.

And as for lag, I have absolutely none with the standard lock screen.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
And now you have to unlock to answer a phone call?
[HTC Sensation] etawful:
I didn't notice that until just a few minutes ago. (Hadn't gotten any calls 'til then).

I agree, this lock screen is awesome. Im one of the few that can't stand vanilla android.

ive been a fan of sense since the WinMo days, but 2.1 for android sealed the deal for me, been a fan ever since (damn you homonyms!!!)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maxmusic:
After getting Clockwork Mod working and making a Nandroid backup, I decided to apply hardcore's Speedmod Lagfix. When it was done I ended up with most of my apps force closing, including Launcher Pro, which made it very difficult to do anything. I was able to switch to TW Launcher so I could do things. I tried to restore some apps and data with TI, but get a message saying my phone won't allow it for security reasons. I was able to previously as I installed Amazon Market app on my rooted Cappy with stock Froyo. I found out after lots of work that if I uninstalled and re-installed apps they worked fine. Hoping to avoid having to do that. I also tried the fix permissions options in recovery to no avail.

Did I do something wrong or have I left a step out in applying the lagfix? My thoughts are I may have to do a nandroid restore, but am hoping not to. My plans are to flash Fasty ROM eventually. Is it better to get this cleaned up first or restore back to stock, without lagfix possibly, and then flash?

Thanks for any assistance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
if you're going to flash a different rom why worry about problems your having on your current os? its kinda like asking this:"windows xp is giving problems should i resolve those before installing windows 7?"

the enabling of the lagfix makes a nandroid backup, wipes everything to format to ext4 and then restores everything. sounds like perhaps that data was corrupted. make a fresh tibu backup, disable lagfix, do a wipey wipe of data, cache, and dalvik from cwm and flash a new rom, and then only restore MISSING APPS + DATA. DO NOT RESTORE ANY SYSTEM DATA.

Thanks for the advice. I'll try it later when I get home. I guess I'm being a bit careful and want to be comfortable in taking the next step.
