[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 01binary01:
I think every issue to do with losing the baseband has a slight twist, I'm beginning to think not every problem can use the same solution.

I've fixed mine, using similar lines as the posting in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1261948

As I couldn't get 7Zip to edit/modify the tar file without the file getting corrupt.

Finally I resorted did the unpacking and re-tarring via my Mac (with android sdk installed) to preserve id's etc.

** The following is just a simple guide, which worked for me, I made sure I had plenty of power on the phone and kept original states of my efs directory **

On my phone via 'adb shell'

$ su
# mkdir /sdcard/efsbck
# cd /
# busybox tar zcvf /sdcard/efsbck/orig-broke-efs.tar.gz efs
# exit
$ exit

On my mac

cd <where-ever-your-android-sdk-is>/platform-tools/
adb pull /sdcard/efsbck/orig-broke-efs.tar.gz
mkdir mod
sudo su
cd mod
sh-3.2# #*Note the 'p' on the tar to preserve the original id's etc on various files
sh-3.2# gunzip -c ../orig-broke-efs.tar.gz | tar xvpf -

sh-3.2# cd efs
sh-3.2# ls -ltra | grep nv_data
-rwx------ 1 1001 1001 32 31 Dec 2010 .nv_data.bak.md5
-rwx------ 1 1001 1001 2097152 31 Dec 2010 .nv_data.bak
-rwx------ 1 1001 1001 32 21 Sep 00:46 nv_data.bin.md5
-rwx------ 1 1001 1001 2097152 21 Sep 00:46 nv_data.bin
sh-3.2# rm nv_data.bin.md5
sh-3.2# rm nv_data.bin
sh-3.2# cp -p .nv_data.bak nv_data.bin
sh-3.2# cp -p .nv_data.bak.md5 nv_data.bin.md5
sh-3.2# cd ..
sh-3.2# tar cvf - efs | gzip -c - > mod-efs.tar.gz
a efstar: getpwuid(1001) failed: No such file or directory

a efs/.files
...
...

sh-3.2# ../adb push mod-efs.tar.gz /sdcard/efsbck/mod-efs.tar.gz

Then 'adb shell' back to the phone. I checked the tar file list was ok and wasn't corrupt.

$ su
# cd /sdcard/efsbck
# busybox tar ztvf mod-efs.tar.gz

Then for the final run, butt clenching bit, still on the phone via 'adb shell'

$ su
# cd /sdcard/efsbck
# umount /efs
# mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
# mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /efs
# ls /efs
lost+found
#
# busybox tar zxvf mod-efs.tar.gz -C /
# ls /efs
... check that the nv_data.bin is there ... and has radio radio id's
# exit
$ exit

Then after a reboot - Phone was still in 'airplane mode' - But went into settings - checked baseband - it was visible (:rolleyes:) ! , went to wireless network 'Flight Mode' was correctly green 'ticked', undid. And got my signal back.(:cool:)

I also had to re-activate data network settings for my GPS to sort itself out.

The procedure worked for me, I can't say it'll work for everyone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsglan:
solved

worked for me too. thanks 01binary01.

some tips for other users:

tar option "z" didn't worked on my device. do it without z.

busybox tar zxvf => busybox tar xvf

7zip worked.

[HTC Sensation] j0hnnyn:
I'm very skeptical of this ad. Often times batteries off ebay are actually only 1000mah. And judging by the fact that the size is the same as the original stock battery, I'm betting the actual mah is way lower than 2430.
[HTC Sensation] The Radius Kid:
You're kidding right?

There's been a few threads about this battery already.

I have four of them.

I bought two and when I complained,they shipped two more.

The first two...no way.

They held about 75% of the stock capacity.

The second two look to be a different manufacturer,but the same size.

I haven't tried them yet.

They're all the same size as stock and yes,the first two had the spacer inside to take up the slack.

They were also bought from e_cell.

Does that clear it up for you?
[HTC Sensation] sn4k3:
so what is the best battery with good capacity??
[HTC Sensation] rajhardia:
Anker 1900mAh
[HTC Sensation] The Radius Kid:
I'll say Anker as well.

I've got one coming,but it's not here yet.

I'm using an Andida and it looks a bit better than stock,even though it's stock sized and weight.

Definitely as good as stock.

If you don't mind a new back cover and thicker phone,apparently the new Mugen 3400+ [IIRC] is quite a beast.

That will require a bit of digging around to sort out a case option for it though.

i have anker 1900 and galilelo 1800 both working very good

[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] andy572:
right, CM7 support gets removed complete in next rom release.

i'll integrate a small bunch of useful things, but not on CM7 based code.

This includes OC support and some other ...

But can u deodex it, i wanna theme this rom in the uot kitchen... ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] terratrix:
Nah, don't think he would do it. U can just deodex via dsixda kitchen
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] DaXmax:
Nah i tink i will just use Auto deodexer...
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] andy572:
you can deodex as you want ... better lern some coding and create a custom rom instead of copy roms and theme it only ;)

i respect the users work here, not everyone have the knowledge as some dev's here - but a theme isnt a real improvement... so i think.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] cupliz:
But, i swear that wifi thetering is not piece of junk... i really need it, please don't make .apk not work on next release sir...

[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] acrossy:
If all goes well the Tether SHOULD be working on next release... or at least it's on the "to fix" list, right? :x

Anyways, nice gig Asp ^^!

On the other hand I don't think the "trick" is making themes per say I think the "trick" so to speak is not making the new themes lag/slow up the system!? Something that apparently a lot of themers tend to forget :)

hi everyone

i have a htc dream since some months now and i have been experiencing a weird problem:

the phone starter rebooting itself, i changed room and radio but still the same, until someone told me to take apart the phone and then put it back on, i did it and problem solved, weird no? but it only fixes for like a week or a little more, and it starts doing the same, and i have to take apart again, and again it solves, i dont know what can it be, i dont make any changes when i take it apart, but magically solve the problem for some days.

i hope someone can help me to solve this for good

excuse my english, thanks and greetings from mexico

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Honestly, I own a license for Titanium Backup and I use it, but I don't think I get the full power of the program, because I can't figure out how to properly restore my apps from backups when I flash a new ROM. :o

Of the two methods to restore via CWM or Titanium better?

Last time I flashed, I couldn't figure out how to restore using either method because I couldn't find the backups.

I tend to keep them on my external SD, since its 32 GB.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooza:
if you know how to make a back-up thats a good start.Heres what i do but if some-one has a better idea thats cool.After flashing and to re-install all apps with data go into titanium and press menu on your phone so that a pop-up menu appears with a whole list of options.Select "batch" and scroll down to you see the RESTORE section.Select RUN were it says "restore all apps with data".Choose and install.Later go back to the pop-up menu at the begining where you selected batch but this time select MORE and then select "clean up dalvik cache".Ive never had problems that way and always had apps and data re-installed.

EDIT:all back-ups by default go to internal-sd.To be re-installed they have to be there also.You can pass them to the external as a copy but to

re-install they have to be on the internal-sd.

Hey everyone. I'm upgrading from my HTC Hero that I've had forever. I just ordered my Epic Touch 4G this morning since they are sold out everywhere. It should be here in a couple of days with UPS. How stable are the rooted kernels so far? Are the problems people are having worth rooting the phone or would it be better off stock until a known stable kernel/rom are working?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smark72:
I am personally waiting until things are more stable and stock eg30 tar is released so there is a way to flash back to stock. Unless you absolutely need to back up your data or need wireless tether, I suggest waiting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
I'm waiting until a stock kernel is posted. Can't go without wifi or data. Also might wait till its a et4g compiled kernel and not from the galaxy SII international version.

I went for it because of tethering needs, but its an iffy call at this point with no stock file.

Did a little research. It's not a leaked Launcher. It was created by a developer team called Syndicate Apps. Checked the poster, and he's "advertising" this app on every forum imaginable. Consensus is the ideas seem nifty, but it's sluggish and rough. It's loosely based on what we've been TOLD is going to be in the 2.4 Android launcher.

I'm loathe to trust any app that's being paraded around on every forum, but that's just me. I'm the paranoid type. Oh, and the app has access to "things that cost you money".

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] TFordham:
I agree that the approach to presenting this was a bit on the suspicious side, but I disagree on the launcher itself. I find it quite interesting and speedy. So far, I like it.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Sucka612:
Looks good, I'll check it out. Thanks!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kaintfm:
The advertisement antics may be unwanted, but it's good to hear the launcher itself is halfway decent. For myself, I've been on MIUI for less than a week and can't imagine ever using a different launcher. No app drawer, themes are only a few clicks away rather than having to wipe/flash... I love it.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] turbosix:
why are there settings icons behind damn near everything on this? wtf?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jamesd86:
If the launcher supports direct dial or direct message, that is why it has that permission. At least I believe that is why.

Hi!

I have a Galaxy S II with lightening rom. When auto-rotation is turned ON, and i have an incoming call, the caller screen also turns to landscape mode, when i rotate my phone. I don't like that. I want that when i write sms, or browse my pictures, the screen turns to landscape, when i rotate the phone, but when i have an incoming call, the screen stays in portrait mode. I don't know, is it since i've flashed my phone, or its also with original rom? Its very irritating. Sorry for my bad english.

Do a nandroid backup from recovery (assuming you are running a custom rom). Otherwise if you flash a new rom or wipe and try to restore your launcher app the widgets wont reload. For some reason widgets are tied to an specific install and dont work when restoring them in a new rom.
