[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Sprint is moving to upgrades every 20 months for all users, if I remember right. If April would be 22 months, and the change takes effect soon-ish, the earliest you could get your upgrade would be February.

If you want to do it before then, you can either sell your Evo or have Sprint buy it back - I believe Sprint's buyback is $125 for the Evo. You'd still have to pay the difference, whatever that may be.

The best way to find out your options would be to just call Sprint & ask. If you have other phones that you're willing to part with (even from other carriers) Sprint may give you buyback credit on those as well, depending on the model. I believe that you can look up the buyback value on Sprint's website.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rushco:
The 20 month upgrade only goes into effect after you upgrade after October 2.

http://www.sprint.com/popups/upgrade_changes.html

"New lines of service and existing customers who upgrade on or after October 2, 2011 will receive future upgrades after 20 months"

Thanks for clearing that up. I was hoping it was in effect immediately, but things never seem to work that way.

can some tell me how ich can buy the Game "Backstab" HD from Android's Market for our Optimus 3d?

I flashed the .zips for the htc_ime with no arrows and the black lock screen ring, is there any way to revert back to the original keyboard and the grey lock screen ring
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nivron:
The easiest way would be to reflash Synergy. It will remove all of your mods but shouldn't mess with your data. **Nandroid first, just in case**

Otherwise you can look through the Synergy ZIP file and extract the htc_ime APK file and use ADB to push it over the one you installed. Same goes for the lock screen ring (but I can't recall which APK or framework file it is).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edgarzonjr:
second that. reflash without deleting data, but you can wipe cache and dalvik. or just start over :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzard1017:
I don't think the lock screen is a stand alone apk. I thought synergy had a revert for everything.

Do'nt you thin the galaxy s II is unnecesary big ? i come from an inspire 4g which as a slightly larger screen 4.3" vs the 4.27" screen on the galaxy s II , yet the inspire 4g is shorter :confused: , the galaxy s looks at least 5 mm taller , i think the top bezel is wider than it should be .

The weird thing is that comparing both phones , the inspire looks a lot wider, almost as if the galaxy s were fwvga

I know it has been mentioned a lot of times bug damn i really miss the notificaton light , cant believe Samsung decided to skip it after they got so many backlash for the lack of a notification light in the original galaxy s II

HTC Inspire 4G

122.9 x 68.1 x 11.7 mm

Samsung Galaxy S II

125.3 x 66.1 x 8.5 mm

Yes it is 2.4mm longer, but more comfortably 2mm narrower. And don't forget the 3.2mm thinner.

By making it so thin they have to put the components, including the Front Facing Camera, someplace. Making it longer is possibly the more desirable way to do it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad_Petree:
i know its a big phone but i already had a big phone, i just find it it funny that a phone with an "smaller screen" its noticeably larger than a phone with a "bigger" screen ;)

Sounds reasonable , i'd swear it feels longer than just 2.4 mm, like 5 mm, regarding those 3.2 mm of thinnes between the devices, the sgs 2 feels WAY thinner i cant over that :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peachpuff:
I believe the inspire uses a different aspect ratio on the screen, the sgs2 has a 15:9 ratio while the inspire probably has a 14:9 ratio making it wider yet shorter. The sensation has a 16:9 ratio and is 1mm narrower but a bit taller than the sgs2.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad_Petree:
that's what makes the phone manageable :o , all my friends were deceived and think the phone it's smaller tan my inspire 4g, because of the weight and how thin the device is, a 1850 mah battery like the one found on the galaxy s II lte would have been nice tough

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mazsa1:
I've tried to unlock my phone the way described here. The phone booted fine for the first time, but it did not detect the SIM card and had no network. I restarted the phone, then I only got a black, flashing (2 sec interval) screen. No samsung boot logo, nothing. I can get the phone into download mode, flash it with a new firmware, but it doesn't help: flashing black screen again.

Is there any solution to this? Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
By flashing new firmware you should get boot ,may you do something wrong in flashing

flash firmware correctly

btw which firmware you flashed?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mazsa1:
I think the main problem is that when Odin reboots the phone after flashing, it only goes back into this black flashing screen state. So the Odin flashing process never completes totally.

I tried with a few firmwares, from samfirmware.com, the 2.3.3 ones.

Found a video, same problem: youtube.com/watch?v=ZINqwcqhf5k
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
Problem occurs if you directly flash one package firmware

try kph or kpb . They are multipackage

after flash multipackage you can flash any one package firmware
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] crrodriguez:
I have exactly this same issue, last thing I got from the phone was "strage looking" (aka. corrupted) filenames in the efs partition.. is there any way flash a restore EFS ? does not matter if the phone does not make calls ..just booting is enough ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] alldine345:
remove your battery first and put in again. then remove your simcard and sd card. flash with full package latest firmware like kpn on kpb and try latest odin ( i use odin v4.42 and succesfully flashing galaxy ace and gio without problem)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mazsa1:
Yes, that could be the cause. EFS got screwed up during the unlock process, and Odin can't write the EFS on the Galaxy Ace as far as I know.

I was playing around with https://market.android.com/details?id=nextapp.websharing.r1 last night, transferring stuff back and forth. There was times when the transfer rate hit like 20 megabits +. I was sending files that were hundreds of megabytes each. I don't know the specs off hand but that would be a good speed test, wireless/wired transfer rates. I remember something being 4xx in speed for the specs of something. It might have been the max speed for USB 2. I'm guessing that theoretically, USB should be faster, but I'm not 100% sure of that either.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcching:
Hi,

Just a quick guide on how to test the stability of uv/oc value. :)

OC/UV tool I use: Pimp My Cpu

The basic idea is to get a STABLE VOLTAGE for each frequency.

Steps

1. Set Max frequency to 200 MHz (Min frequency @100 MHz)

2. UV the voltage to desire voltage.

3. Play a 720P RMVB video file (Google Search Result) using Soft encoding in Mobo Player.

We could consider the voltage STABLE if able to play for 15 minutes with no problem.

4. Then set MAX frequency to 400 MHz (Min frequency @100 MHz) and repeat Step 2 and Step 3 to get STABLE VOLTAGE for 400 MHz.

5. The same goes for 800 MHz (Max frequency @ 800MHz and Min frequency @100 MHz)and above.

Kindly comment if u have better approach. :D

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] upichie:
Set max frequency to X AND set the governor to performance*

or

Set max AND min frequency to X*
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcching:
Hi,

If you want to test stable voltage for 400 MHz,

- Set Max frequency @ 400MHz

- Set Min frequency @ 100MHz

To test stable voltage for 800MHz

- Set Max frequency @ 800MHz

- Set Min frequency @ 100MHz

I will usually leave the governer as kernel default.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] upichie:
If you're testing a stable voltage for 800 MHz, why would you want it throttling between mutliple MHz? It would seem more efficient to keep it at 800.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kcching:
If you lock the MAX and MIN frequency at the same frequency, you might find the voltage could be lowered to -200mV and still the phone is running smoothly @ high frequency(ie.800MHz & above) without any reboot. But once you applied this UV value to your setting, you will encountered a lot of reboot and hang situation.

Unless you want your phone to be always running at high frequency which doesn't make sense at all.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] upichie:
Fair enough. I suppose scaling would affect what voltage it could handle.
[LG Thrill 4G] technicalvampire:
My friend tried to root his Thrill but did not follow the directions in the link I sent him.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1251663

He ran Super One Click but didn't run it as admin. Now SU does not work. When he installed Rom Manager and opened it it didn't prompt him to allow or deny it SU permissions. None of his APPs that need SU permissions are showing up in SU. Its like SU is broken.

He tried to unroot it, again he did not come here and try to search for a fix or instructions on how to unroot.

I am going to try to use ADB shell to fix SU or get it to a point where we can flash a stock rom. Maybe I can just Brick it and he can return it to ATT and play stupid and tell them "I dont know what happened"

Any suggestions? I am new to Android but I have rooted my own Thrill and was able to flash the Thriller rom. I have also rooted the HTC Inspire, Motorola Atrix, and the Samsung Infuse. So I kinda know what I am doing.

Any help would be much appreciated.

yesterday i found a kind of error/bug in this version of cmw, and i mange to reproduce it, so heres what i did

enter recovery

wiped dalvik-cache

then i was at the begining of the advance section and i pressed vol up, vol down,vol up and the back key was disabled, then i pressed vol down, vol up, vol down, vol up and the back key was enabled

ipressed the back key and it worked

then i enter partion sd card, i selected 0MB and it started partitioning (didnt ask for swap size), it finished and i reboot

when it boot the Morotola logo was gone and insted there was a menu with boot options

tried to enter recovery but it was gone, like if i erase it

power down the device, power up, normal boot

when the boot finished the screen was all messed up, the 4 buttons (menu, home, back, search) didnt worked, if i press them is like touching the screen

is like if the screen got bigger

after this i search hera and google, i found a coplu of post with similar problems were they say that with a wipe the problem would be fixed, but no

2) Luckily my internal SD card was still there, just restored a backup i had.

2b) Like you, my screen was messed up. Luckily I had backed up my pds partition a long time ago. Using fastboot, I just flashed it back.

3) The logo was gone, but there was another thread to creating new logos -- using fastboot flashed a new logo.

[Bada Software and Hacking General] bong4316:
It seems that Open Mobile is planning to compete with Dalvik by releasing its Application Compatibility Layer, a product which will allow running Android Apps on other Mobile platforms asides from Android. (iOS not included in the list)

Open Mobile promise that developers do not have to retool or recode their present android apps to make them work on the other mobile platforms.

The only big problem for consumers?

It seems that the product is targeted to OEMS and in the case of Bada, Samsung would have to foot the bill upfront.

Though nothing is stopping Samsung from reselling the app if they want to, on its own market.

If Samsung is wise, they should take up this offer since whatever they invest in Open Mobile can be easily recouped by just reselling it as an app.

This would be a big win win for Samsung and its Bada customers.

What do you think?

Should the bada community petition Samsung to bring this over to Bada?

True but RIM and other companies plan to do so

RIM already announced their own Android app emulator for its phones next year and their playbook.

Remember that the Samsung apps market also Offer Android apps both paid and free.

So Samsung apps market isnt reliant on Bada to bring on the sales.

In fact if they allow this, Samsung would also expand its own Apps market not just to its android handsets but even to bada handsets.

Think about it.
