Went to BB to pick up my pre order and half way through transaction computers froze storewide lol waited through a couple reboots and after a while they were like, we're so sorry but come back a little later so you don't have to wait any longer! So it's back to bb a little later lol

Are yo guys seeing any good accessories in the stores I'm hoping most of them work with my euro gs2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sentinel79:
Just got mine from at&t. They had 2 case styles and 2 colors each but I think I would rather buy something on eBay ... they were 35 bucks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] afroduck:
The store I went to here in Philly had 3 in stock on launch day.

I got #3.

I was the only one asking about the phone when my store opened.... Didn't even have the display out yet.... Apparently in my area this phone ia not in demand
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] war eagle:
Got mine! Super excited! I thought the Infuse was perfect but it started to suffer a little lag, think it was the Beautiful Widgets thing but whatever it was it was annoying.

Also, coming from the Infuse to this, I loved my screen, but this screen is actually perfect. I had a lot of typos with the Infuse because of my small, fat fingers just always hitting things, this is similar to typing on an iPhone. I can text without looking at the keyboard again, yay!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MisterEdF:
How much larger is the Infuse? Can you take a photo of the two of them copulating face to face?

This is an even better tool to use. Gives you side by side visual size comparison of any phone against the sgsII :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] war eagle:
Unfortunately, I exchanged the Infuse for the Galaxy S II. The Galaxy S II is 4.3 vs Infuse 4.52 and it's almost night and day IMO. The Galaxy S II just fits better to me and seems a lot more smaller. The Infuse kinda feels like a brick compared to the Galaxy S II, all wide and outside. Galaxy S II is feels a lot slimmer and extra thin compared to the already extra thin Infuse.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MisterEdF:
Thanks, that's pretty neat, but I'd still like to see them actually mated with each other because that would be more dimensional.

---------- Post added at 04:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------

It's actually thinner than the Infuse? The Infuse was so thin to me that when I held it (I have large hands) it felt like holding a baseball card just before I flipped it. (I'm sure you're too young to remember flipping baseball cards! :) ) I had to put it in a case so I could get a good grip on it.

I'm still holding off to see & hold the T-Mobile version. I really want the larger screen.

OMG Love this phone

I've been waiting since Feb for this Phone. I was first in the store at 11am and the rep was like I don't think that goes on Sale till next week. I was like can you check. They had 10 in back. I mean come on. At&t employees should know more then the public. Just glad I got my butt there. I thought there was going to be a line. Nope turns out I was the only one to ask the whole hour I was in there. CRAZY!!! :eek:

Can't wait to ROOT..... I'm waiting till I know it works on an AT&T version. I need a easy tutorial tho, Still a noob here. I had help with my Infuse..... Loved my Infuse going to miss my 4.5 inch screen.

Good luck to everyone today. Hope you get your SGS2 :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yoneilio:
Yeah, I actually don't think people realize what a power house this phone is. Trust me, it will happen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yoneilio:
Yeah, Samsung only sent our store 5. What is that? It is all I could order. I tried to order 10, bricklaying the demand, but they said 5 was our number. Get ready for a back order situation and a waiting list.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] brianlp:
I went to pick mine up from BB, but they said they only had two and they were both sold. :(

I went there a couple weeks ago to see the Samsung Galaxy 8.9 tablet, and bought one of the two they had.

I picked up the SG II at AT&T for $199, but wish I had known I could have gotten it cheaper at Walmart and Sam's Club. Should have checked here before running out the door this morning.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dr Triffid:
Bought mine this afternoon while on the way to work. Had fun with it for about 20 minutes until I plugged it in. It then went black and intermittently flashed the battery charge screen. When unplugged, it rebooted. Even after taking everything out and reseating it, the problem repeated. So, back to the store I went for a replacement.

I am now enjoying my second GSII very much.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tanton50:
ok guys, I am not eligible for an upgrade until next April. I want the Galaxy S II, should I buy the at&t variant or the normal one?

I went ahead and bought the phone, are you serious AT&T how much grab can you put on a phone we don't need. I miss AOSP already, but I love this phone, its insanely fast, light, etc
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dr Triffid:
Correct. No headphone and no video adapter — just the charger and minimal documentation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naplesbill:
Well, I returned my Thrill and picked up a SGSII this morning. I haven't rooted it yet but so far I am very impressed.

I gave up the pretty cool 3D functions but I gained a much better camera overall. I really had no complaints on the display of the Thrill, but obviously the SGSII has an amazing display.

The main reason I made the change is because of the software and battery issues I was having with the Thrill. The hardware was not an issue, in fact the hardware was outstanding in most respects.

I'm hoping I made the right decision and that I have better luck with battery life on the SGSII.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] krips2003:
If 3d is not a major thing in your deciding factor then you made the right decision. Else it's up to you. Since you had thrill and now sgs2, you are in better situation to make that comparison.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naplesbill:
Yeah, the 3D was a very cool feature and it was great for showing (or thrilling as it may be) others. However, I do not have any other 3D displays so looking at 3D on a small screen has it's limits anyway.

The SGSII has a much better software build and the things that matter most to me (especially Exchange email) operate much smoother and faster.

The only comparison left is battery life. I should know by lunch tomorrow whether that is going to be an issue. Based on what I've read, it shouldn't be.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hkeyman:
Got My SGSII and loving it.

Just Traded in my Infuse4G (Which I had for over a month) picked up...Rooted...CWM Kernel installed and now the fun begins!:D

I got the last of 5 of the SGSII's in my area of Southern California (Ventura) at Best Buy. Apparently this part of Ca. is not going to carry them in the ATT stores because of the iGrip that Apple has on ATT Nutz and the direct sales deprivation this phone would have on their sales if they did have them. Anyway lets get this customizing train a rolling! We have an awesome phone...So lets not be afraid to do it!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] XPLANE9:
Hi,

I am currently using a HD7 with the DFT Freedom Mango Rom. Of course with ICS coming near and missing the ability to root on Android, I am currently in negotiation for a trade with a G2X. My main concern is that the developer community appears a little lacking compared to my old HD2. Is Cyanogen still actively maintaining CM7?

My other question regards warranty; is warranty on this device handled purely by LG or does T-Mobile also provide its own warranty? The device is new in the box so I can still have the T-Mobile warranty when I insert my sim card.

Lastly, is the metal rim on the sides more of a matte texture or is it a shiny finish like the iPhone 3GS bezel? The shiny bezel on my HD7 bugs the hell out of me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
The developer community for the G2x has been a bit quiet lately, but I'm hoping it will change soon.

Cyanogen is still being updated every night for the G2x.

The bezel is a metallic gray. It looks really nice.

I would also recommend going through T-Mobile for the warranty, as their costumer support is MUCH better than LG's.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
+1 There is still plenty of roms and kernels to choose from even tho development has slowed down. The bezel is not distracting at all and goes nicely with the overall look of the G2x. I don't think tmobile is exchanging g2x's any more, i called them to see if they would replace mine and they told me LG asked them to forward all warranties/exchanges to LG as they aware of the bricking problem thru their own lg updater tool. Sucks cuz it would take longer to send to lg and receive it back then to go thru Tmobile.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I recommend that you get Premium Handset Protection for $7.99 if you decide to get the G2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] babymatteo:
I didn't really see a big difference between the $7.99 and the $4.99...they both covered loss and theft so just went with the $4.99 plan...

But yah definitely get PHP. Peace of mind and worth it in the long run.

I'd say do the trade...i'm sure you already know what androids can do, and the G2x is undoubtedly one of the best phones, if not thee best, to do the job.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
Its more of a matte. Like the iPhone 4. Not to shiny like the 3gs. Their are nightlies everyday for this phone. You should get it

I used link2sd to move apps to sd-ext

link2sd created a script to mount the sd-ext

then i made a backup in CWM, and something went wrong last night

I did a restore, but now when I first open the link2sd, the following message appear

Mount script error
Mount script cannot be created.
mount: mounting /dev/blocl/vold/179:2 on /data/sdext2 failed: Invalid argument

so now I cannot see all the apps I have moved to sd-ext

any advice?

thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V General] calhotel:
make sure you have proper ext2, ext3 or ext4 file system support in your rom/kernel
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetpotatoz:
thanks for the reply.

sd-ext was working fine, when i did the backup (so rom/kernel sure can support this)

it is having issue now, because i did a full restore (i suppose nand backup in CWM would backup sd-ext as well)

[Motorola Triumph] primetechv2:
I'm a slow adopter and I think my clockwork is still at 4.0.0.9. Thank you for posting this relatively informative compilation of info.

Any outstanding features you want to mention right off the bat? The kind of stuff that would belong in OP?
[Motorola Triumph] llorn:
The main reasons to upgrade are:

1. The newest versions support ext 4 partitions which are necessary if you want to flash the latest CM7 ROM.

2. This may or may not be true, but I think they sync'ed the latest CWM code from the CM code and that was how it got updated to the 5.0.2.3. So there may be bug fixes that got pulled down--I could be wrong though--just guessing here.

3. I read some people report that in the CWM 4.0.0.9 there was an option to "format /fat" which they did and semi-bricked their phones. This option does not exist in the Isaac/Tickerguy CWM versions and so there's less chance of a user accidentally bricking their phones.
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
I tried all of these recovery imgs

I followed all of the directions and once I boot onto cwm I see below some errors

CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.3

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
[Motorola Triumph] llorn:
I've never experienced that but i've seen other people report the same thing. However, they also indicate that it doesn't seem to cause them issues. Try doing a backup and then a restore to see if that works for you.
[Motorola Triumph] b_randon14:
Mine always says can't mount cache/recovery/command

Hey llorn I'm making some cwm flashable zip recoveries tonight and ill pm you the links so you can add them to the open! I finally figured out how to flash recoveries from cwm!

[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
Hey llorn, sorry but would you mind guiding me a bit, i would usually find a way to this without help but how should i backup and restore? Isnt that done through cwm? Whenever cwm loads i try pressing power for any option and all i get is a screen with nothing but a hat. Any suggestions?
[Motorola Triumph] llorn:
As stated in the OP:

The controls for CWM 5.0.2.3 (as well as the Isaacj87 versions 4.0.1.5 and 4.0.1.4) in the MT are:

Volume up --> up

Volume down --> down

Power --> back

Menu --> select

Home --> nothing

Back --> back

Search --> nothing

And yes, you would do the backup and restore in the "Backup and Restore" option.
[Motorola Triumph] primetechv2:
Older versions remove the menus if you push the...back button, I believe. They are returned if you push the button again but it's still disconcerting.

I wonder if there's any issues with wiping cache if you decide to do so... It's rather difficult to properly mount things on the Triumph, it seems!
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
llorn do you know how embarrassed I feel. I can't believe i overlooked this. I'm an idiot! Just booted up cm7! I wish I could still install a custom kernel though....
[Motorola Triumph] b_randon14:
Nah ur good wiping anything(besides fat!!!!) With these recoveries! Yeah this phone is partitioned weird but I haven't had a problem getting stuff to mount in my update zips!

No need to update if you don't want to if you are already using 4.0.1.5 or 5.0.2.3 -- unless you're like me and just have to have the latest versions...
[Motorola Triumph] Svein10:
I got the same, by a mistake i picked an older version 4.0.1.5, and that worked just fine, but flashed to v5.0.2.3 and I got these errors and if I try to use any command it freezes. If I go back to 4.0.1.5 again it works. What can be causing this? Will a wipe first fix it?

They won't affect anything. you should be fine.
[Motorola Triumph] idbl_fanatic:
I got them too, but everything worked fine.
[Motorola Triumph] jerenater10:
When i try to boot into recovery the phone vibrates endlessly until i do a battery pull. I followed the instructions but i did rename the CWM file from Recovery to Recovery.img could that be why its doing this?

I am looking forward to getting the 4G upgrade but would like to have everything up to date before sending it in. So I am looking for a little help resolving this issue.

Thanks

After some research I am not positive but I believe it has something to do with the micro sd card. I am trying a factory data reset.

well factory data reset didnt do jack ****.

[SOLVED]

I finally pulled the sd card out while trying to update and it went thru.

coming from 3.1 to 3.2 you can not update with the sd card in the slot. or atleast I couldnt!
[Xoom General] alodar1:
I could....no worries. got to 3.2 without touching a button. I heard there was a 3.2.1 available...but I assume that it will be available when I get my device back. My box should be here shortly and the device is ready to ship back...I'll worry about any other updates next week. :)

[Ideos S7 General] pedrojb:
Hello everyone

First at all want thanks the valious information in this forum. For a newbie like me is superb.

Now I´m needing here some tips please.

I have a IDEOS S7 tablet rooted (with SuperOneClick), working in full with the SuperUser, I have root access through with Root Explorer.

I use Link2SD to change the apps from the internal memory to the internal SD card.

I have no partitions on internal SD (do not know how to do).

The question: When i install an application this one goes to the /data/app folder, but also some additional files of this application goes to the /data/data folder.

With Link2sd when I move an app to the SD internal card, only the file in data/app moves and the files/folders in the data/data remain´s there!

For example when I install an application with 11MB (adobe flash for example) and move it with the link2sd to the internal SD card never copies all the 11MB (only about 3MB are copied )..... I conclude that any app that I install, and moved to SDcard, I can never keep in the same internal memory free "measurement" of bytes!

Example, I have 136MB free before installing Adobe. After installation I get 125MB. I move the app to the internal SD and are moved only 3MB! The remaining (8MB) stay in the internal memory. So, i never stay again with the 136MB that I had before, but +- 128MB.

What is wrong? Can I move all files of an application or not? What am I doing wrong or is this just like that!!? Any suggestion please?

By the way how can I create a partition on the InternalSD card and what is the advantage of doing this?

Thank you for your attention

regards

pedro
