[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcotton73:
Hello

I upgraded my xperia x10a A&T to stock GB2.3.3 (US Generic) about a week ago by changing the build.prop file and updating via SEUS. Before this the phone was on the Global Generic 2.1 ROM flashed via flashtool. I would like to downgrade to the AT&T 2.1 version - I am suspecting some issues which might the phone hardware and if so - I want to get warranty service on the phone - tried searching for this - but didn't seem to find anything. Is this possible to do by changing the build.prop to the appropriate CDA -- Or -- should I use flashtool and the appropriate rom?

On a side note - I am having two issues with the phone:

1) Battery charging issue - won't charge to 100% - charges to 50-60% and then starts discharging with charger connected -- this happens after the GB upgrade - tried battery calibration app - still doing this. (Haven't tried wiping via xrecovery - since don't have that installed).

1) Wifi issue -- wifi enabling hangs (rotating circle when I use the status switch widget to turn on wifi) - once that happens, then I cannot disable - have to restart phone (nowadays - even upon restarting - the wifi is already stuck and cannot be enabled) - in wifi settings menu it shows "turning on wifi" but the checkbox is greyed out. This same thing was happenning on my 2.1 update as well for a while -- I tried reflashing 2.1 generic and also tried 2.3.3GB rooted and unrooted - shows up on all of these. Hence I think it's the phone hardware - unless anyone else have any other suggestions.

Thanks

Hi Just got a Galaxy. and i ran the firmware update with has updated the phone to version 2.3.3 build bujv9. phone is unlocked

I have been looking at rooting as lag fix seems to improve speed a large amount.

I done a benchmark and got 885. but after rooting with voodoo it says you can get 2100 benchmark.

But it says i have to have version 2.3.4 to root phone. My newest update is 2.3.3. So i am not sure if i should root or need to. or can with the version i have.

Please can someone advise on best way to go. Sorry for long question. been used to htc phone for last year.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Woolf:
Go to dev section, search for chainfire root kernel, dl ext 4 app for lagfix.

Once yr rooted with cwm recovery, you'll be able to choose any custom rom/kernel combo you want.

Happy days.

Hi

Thanks for replies.

Think i will root phone. Really love the Galaxy. miles better than my desire was.

But Samsung do not do much as regards themes and widgets like HTC.

I do get a bit of lag but phone runs pretty good with gingerbread.

HTC desire has nothing on this phone. and i can see the screen clearly when outside in the sun. desire was useless outside. And i got 32Gb of space now.:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thompson2009:
HI

My phone has the gingerbread rom BUJV9 Installed.

I am not sure what i have to use to root my phone with this rom installed.

I have been looking everywhere to find a straight answer. But cannot find one.

So not a clue which cf-root to use or if i have to downgrade first. Or if i can use any rooting tool.

Any ideas please.

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSGE:
You can use also Hardcore kernel for that. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1134975

Easy steps:

- download a rooted kernel for 2.3.4 (I prefer Hardcore or CF-root)

- open Odin and check "PDA" and browse to kernel file

- put your phone in download mode and connect it to computer

- pres Start button

Nice guides here for flashing with odin and rooting :http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12979275&postcount=1613

Hi

Thanks for advise. rooted phone ok now. Got superuser working.

Just need to find a super fast rom now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSGE:
Are a lot of good custom roms and kernels here and every developers deserve at least a thanks from our side.

Personally, now I prefer S.U.R.F.A.C.E. rom with Hardcore kernel. Good battery life, fast and customizable.

In my opinion Froyo ..JS8 was the best and now Gingerbread XXJVR is the best, at least until now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thompson2009:
Cheers for advice.

I had HTC desire before so used to rooting with them. So now rooted will soon get used to flashing. It's just the first bit. But in the end Galaxy was peasy compared to HTC. And Galaxy is miles better phone.

[EVO 4G General] iceflow420:
I would like to openly discuss the possibility of a Landscape Sense Rom.

When I am at work, or in my car, I always have the phone sideways either using the kickstand or in a pocket in my dash. This layout just seems more natural to me as the keyboard is bigger in this orientation. I would rather scroll up-and-down to read emails/txt/anything than sliding left-to-right and then sliding down to get more info.

I wonder if it would be possible to port the EVO Shift or Merge to the EVO and hard code the Rom to think that the keyboard is out. If I remember correctly, when I played with the Shift, the Sense home screen would switch to LS when the board was out.

We all know that there is, buried deep down in the files, an LS options in Sense. We've all seen the occasional "glitch" when exiting an app and Sense displays in LS for a second or 2.

If I had the skills, I would take this on in a heart beat. Unfortunately I do not.

As I said, I would like to start an open discussion on the subject. Thanks for your time.
[EVO 4G General] im0rtalz:
Landscape sense? Do you mean Landscape Rosie because plenty of roms already support this or this can also done with Launcher Pro.
[EVO 4G General] iceflow420:
I forgot its Rosie. LauncherPro does do landscape, that's correct. But I haven't seen the ability to run Rosie/Sense Widgets in LauncherPro.

AOSP/plain Jane Android is nice, but it is nothing like HTC's package.

And while HTC continues to update that package, I believe they are missing a key option.
[EVO 4G General] tropicalbrit:
Have you checked out the Flyer port? Landscape, and consistently updated
[EVO 4G General] iceflow420:
I am actively following that topic, but am wondering why it is taking a tablet rom to get this accomplished.

I can't wait for Plattypus to get that working.

But one option doesn't really cut it. I see a ton of Sense/Rosie roms that are needing to be resized to fit the res of the EVO, and not one trying to take advantage of our HTC cousin slider phones.
[EVO 4G General] protoadies:
Check out mikg 2.5 rom does landscape, and superfast cant go wrong. Its solid, stable, and in my eyes the best

[HTC Inspire 4G] VinceG:
Hey guys,

When I first got my inspire I loved the audio output coming from the headphone Jack. I am now running the android revolution rom and the sound quality sounds like it leaves something to be desired on the lower end frequencies, I was wondering if anyone else noticed this and what you did to fix it

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
ARHD 6.1.0 has known audio issues on the Inspire (judging by the comments in the dev thread). Earlier versions may need the Inspire tinny fix applied to them (link is in the dev thread).

BTW your question would be better placed in the Q&A thread for ARHD.
[HTC Inspire 4G] VinceG:
Youre right, my apologies. Can the mods please move this to the right section?

And while I'm at it ill ask this question to everyone. Which ROM have all of you found to have the best sound quality?

I came from a Captivate and the Voodoo sound enhancement made phone sound better than my laptop with SRSwow sound effects. I was hoping this phone would be just as good if not better with the Dolby and SRS built in

*EDIT* I was using poweramp then decided to give playerpro with the DSP pack a try and it sounds waayyy better. Definitely worth a try

[HTC Inspire 4G] Mister J:
Yeah I never had a problem with the sound in the stock firmware. It was a lot better considering I came from an x10 which had horrible quality. Depends on what your standards are.

[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Just so you're clear, ADB doesn't depend on the software version on your phone at all. It is simply a diagnostic tool to send commands to any Android phone.

Make sure that when you run ADB, you run it from a command prompt in the folder where ADB actually is. Holding down shift and control inside the ADB folder will allow you to 'open a command prompt here' in the folder, which will let you send commands as per normal.

If you get a 'device not connected' error, that's your USB drivers not installed properly, however since you've had it work once I'm guessing that they will be fine.

You cannot simply run ADB from any command prompt. You must run it from a command prompt in the folder where it exists. Fastboot is exactly the same.

Good luck!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suda:
Hello,

So I've been reading on this forum for a while and I need your help.

I have a HTC Thunderbolt. I rooted using Thunderbolt rooter link:

[Updated: 3/26]Easyroot + S-Off [Version 1.6.3.11] - xda-developers

After rooting I loaded Cyanogenmod-7.1.0-RC1-Thunderbolt-KANG. I had root access everything was working great!

Current ROM on device: Cyanogenmod-7.1.0-RC1-Thunderbolt-KANG

Android Version: 2.3.5

Baseband: 1.39.00.0627r, 0.01.69.0625r

Kernal Version: 2.6.35. 13-cyanogenmod+slayher@homebrewed #36

Build number: GRJ90

Yesterday I tried accessing a app that requires root access and it could not gain root access. I tried several apps that would require root and got denied. I checked superuser app on device and it shows in log that everything is getting denied. I went to settings with in superuser and tried to check for updates the touched update anyway and when it tries to gain root access it fails.

I checked in HBOOT if S-OFF still shows .. and yes S is off.

I thought I would try running Thunderbolt rooter again and go through the process but it would not work. It says to put debugging on, make sure wifi is off and make sure its charge only. In Cyanogen settings it doesn't have "connect to computer" setting where I can specify charge only ..

Tried leaving it plugged up with it charging and debugging on with no success.

Tried hard reset.

Now I have no market Icon .. and rom manager can't gain root access so I can't get it back .. I can't flash back to an older backup bc rom manager can't gain root access..

PLEASE HELP ME .. lol .. im stuck ..

EDIT: No changes that I can think of were made between having root access and not having root access.:(

Have you tried entering recovery from a power off state?

Shut your phone off.

Gold the volume down + power button.

Let it boot up and choose recovery. The then restore from there and see if that works.

[Acer Iconia A500] TulpiX:
Hello

I have some questions related to styluses

1) does it really work in a good way for taking handwritten notes? I mean is it readable afterwards if you write normally or do you need to be extra careful and extra slow?

2) whats the best stylus out there?

3) which note taking app do you use/prefer?

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] cd85233:
I would say that this, nor many of the capacitive screens, are very good for note taking. They work well for programs that allow you to write largely and then it converts it to smaller writing.

Most styli out there are soft rubber, which is the one I have, and those are not the best for handwriting. They're simply not accurate enough. There are ones like the DAGI one that seem like they would work better, I can't say since I've never used one.

One of the better ones so far is Tab Notes. But it is far from OneNote which to me is the best note taking software out there.

I would like to hear if others are using this as a note taking device. Maybe I'm missing something.
[Acer Iconia A500] skndeep102:

My Daughter and I regular use Skype. She used to have vodafone 1615(HTC kaiser??- tytn11??) and I have TP2 we used video calling alot which was nice.She then upgraded to an HTC HD2, so video calling stopped between us on Skype so we just used normal calling via Skype.

Anyway she has just upgraded her phone again to one which supports Skype video calling(iphone:()So I tried to make a Video call on my TP2 and found I couldn`t. So I tried to make a Skype video call to pc and it didn`t work:( So I thought I would load Skype onto my Android(froyo7) os from the developers here. Unfortunately video calling is not supported on my phone via the Android os.

Sorry this is long winded but I needed to explain it correctly, so my question is can I get an upgrade for my TP2 on windows 6.5 to enable Skype video calling or is ther an upgrade for the Android (froyo7) os on my phone to allow video calling.

cheers in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] eraldo:
quadrant is outdated and no use for newer phones, those scores mean nothing as far as im aware quadrant STILL does not properly support dual core devices.

Try cf-bench, made by the creator of chainfire3d, try at standard clock speed then try cloakk the cpu to match that of the sgs2 and you will see that the tegra 2 device out performs its rivals in many areas when the over clock is matched. and sometimes even when is lower.

and lg 4850-4990.is 2x really better than htc sensation?

Yes but the stock rom is crap, and if the o2x tegra 2 chip was released overclocked like the sgs2 was then the o2x would get better stats, the sgs2 gpu is good but the tegra gpu is way better with 3d stuff and that's whats important as we get into more advanced games.

Hi. I have a rooted Captivate with Froyo and a few weeks ago, my Contacts (the app) started acting up.

At first, my contacts (all Google contacts) would disappear and reappear randomly. Now my contacts are all gone, except for a few 'Unknown' ones which are recent callers. What's worse, now Contacts won't open most of the times and when it does, it makes the phone really slow or it force closes.

I don't recall (un)installing or modifying anything and I REALLY don't want to reset my phone.

At the time I was using GoDialer from the market but uninstalling it didn't change anything. Maybe it broke something. Is there a way to reinstall the Contacts app or files?

Anyway, I appreciate any help.
