Ok.. So I bought the wife the SGS2 as she had been waiting for it since the kid through the captivate in the toilet ;D well i did the root method and then just put cognitions new rom on there.. I do not know if she was having the issue "stock" as I don't know that she put zedge on it and it was working . wife i saying it was happening with stock as well.. anyway.. the issue is.. i set (she sets) the ringtone and notification to something else.. I have tried stock and tones DL"d from zedge and no matter what I change it too.. it continues to just do the default tones.. her notification is that whistle sound and ringtone is the samsung one (i think) default..

any know why they are not changing and any solutions??? also.. she is notificing that no notification sound is being made when something comes in like and email and what not.. any ideas on that?? is there a setting im missing on her phone or somthing for this one?

thanks for any help

Hmm, I'll try to look into this later this week (going out tonight), but I do recall that notification tones for email seem to not work. However I may have just not heard it.

SMS and Google Talk notifications do work normally for me, same for ringtone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aver2one:
My SMS and email notifications wont change for me either.. I change it in sound menu and still get that annoying "whistle" with every text!!

BTW I'm stock..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Riccan717:
Ive noticed that you have to change the notification ringtone on the SMS application separate from the general notification ringtone in settings. Access this by hitting the menu key while in SMS app. I believe email notification tone would be accessed the same way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bigsho:
This is correct. I did the same thing and now my notification sounds are as customized
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] othermark:
This is the same as the Captivate (stock roms) -- you have to be in the application (messaging, email, gmail, etc) and change notification tones there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] locsplitter:
This is how it's done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aver2one:
Wow guys thanks! I will be sure to hit your thanks buttons when I get near a computer
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Zugshad:
thanks a lot guys..

i did notice this morning I heard her notification message was saying her new one.. however, i noticed that it was only when email was coming in, the text was still the whistle.. so I will go in and try to change as stated above and see how this goes.. again thanks.

this also helps as a friend and his wife still have the captivates and his wife had this same issue and it was "HIGHLY PISSING" her off :P so much she wants to get rid of it and get one of those ancient "phone" only type phones hehe

edit:

confirmed.. does work. for some odd reason, you go into text/sms app and when you go to settings, sure as s*!t it is set to default as the "whistle" ringtone and not default in which I would think it would default to what ever you set as the standard notification one.. going into gmail and it stocks to default.. so thanks again, working for her now..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] othermark:
Another 'gotcha' for ring tones if you point your ring tones at the internal SD/ external SD and then use usb storage mode to attach those drives, you'll get some sort of weird notification sound that's not any of the normal ones if a notification arrives while it's mounted.

My friend had a locked Xperia X10 bought from UK

He unlocked it using SETool but is currently stuck on 2.1

Both PC-Companion and Update Service shows it doesn't need any update,it is updated to the latest version.

I can root it and update it but is there any other method of doing it easily ??

Well, it is about what you would expect from WVGA stretched to a 1080p screen. Not bad, not great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] damon20r:
So it will record 1080p but outputs it at 800x480 via the hdmi? If that is the case then that's extremely disappointing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I think it changes resolution when playing video. Notice how the screen blanks out briefly before playback begins? I think that's the resolution switchover. At least that's what happens on my international SGS2...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
I want one.. but is it worth it? lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ngocdao:
just wanna verify that it mirrors your screen, correct? so its fully operational while outputting?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] poofyhairguy:
Complete mirror of screen. Can confirm movie playback is in 1080p. Fully functional.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cocheci:
How do you mirror your screen? I have the phone connected to the TV through this Micro USB - HDMI adapter, but I see nothing on the TV when I play a video.

UPDATE: I think I answered my own question by reading other threads: you need to actually separately power the adapter through the USB port on its side. That's a bummer, so you actually need a separate USB power source!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ngocdao:
Bleh...

Mediahub files blocks hdmi out.

Works if i play first then plug it in.

But once i move files off mediahub to sd card, that trick doesnt work anymore

Whatevs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shamelin73:
Ya mine is being blocked as well. I bought the OEM Samsung one to watch my media hub stuff. Kinda disappointing. As stated before if you start the playback before you plug it in it works quite well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
So I just picked up an adapter locally and while it works just fine, I'm not sure it's working as it should with regards to charging. If I simply have the adapter plugged in and then plugged into the wall, it charges very very very slowly. If I actually plug in the hdmi cable and do something like stream a video, buh bye battery life. It drains crazy fast.

This adapter from Amazon, does the charger help keep the battery at around the same level while in use or do you see it drop a good bit as well?

Oh and with regards to MediaHub, whether I start a video before hooking up this adapter or after, I still get the same error on my tv about protection, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shamelin73:
In regards to charging this phone charges slow and if your using it watching video it will just barley keep up. The phone seems to use almost as much juice as it get from the charger as your watching video.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Edgarhighman:
So how do you get this working? and it puts 1080p video on the TV through the USB>HDMI from our i777?

What is media hub?

I ended up with a OEM Samsung one from eBay and the menotek vga one from Amazon for $34. The vga is pricey but cheaper than replacing the LCD screen in my car. I hope it doesn't have connection problems with the vga one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
I bought this one: $11 shipped. Bought it last Wednesday, arrived today, 5 days including weekend.

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/view...=0&nav=WON&nid=71648315004&trxId=184327932026

It looks so much better than my Thrill did, the Thrill was only marginally better than the Captivate over RCA cables. TV says its 1080p, but that doesn't mean it isn't just scaled. Mine also only works when power supply plugged in, but I have plenty of USB AC adapters and microUSB cables, from years of electronics. I don't have any HD content to test it, just whatever resolution the TV shows are that turn 42 minutes into 350MB file. I have only watched a single episode on the set up (Terra Nova), but I forgot I wasn't watching broadcast after a few minutes, it looked that good.

I also got a USB OTG adapter for $3, and a jig for $6 (no more yellow triangle here :) ).

With a OTG adapter I finally can say my Galaxy S II / TouchPad combo can fully replace my second computer (netbook).

Ordered all three at the same time, free shipping, arrived today.

Have to love the cheap eBay Chinese stuff, even better when they ship from the US, so they don't take 2 weeks.

On a scale of 1 - 10, how would you rate success after your phone has been bricked? I'm stuck at recovery mode after wiping my system clean my phone doesn't boot up. Before I purchase another phone, btw I haven't even had the phone for 3 weeks, anyway can it be fixed? I would hate to have just thrown nearly $200 away and waste more money if the problem can be resolved...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Sorry2U:
This is simple, BECAUSE you wiped the system, the phone won't boot up, it's perfect sense.You just need to flash a ROM or use KDZ to get your phone back to life again

There will be lines in /system/build.prop that show the current information of your device.

Those lines being the ones posted earlier, find the part before the = and only edit the part after the = to whatever you want it to say. Should be pretty straightforward.

Example:

ro.build.description=1.02.401.1 CL179367 release-keys

Do a ctrl+f (cmd+f for mac) and search for "ro.build.description", from there highlight "1.02.401.1 CL179367 release-keys" and type in what you want it to for the section in Settings > About > Build Number (or whatever the combo is for your device)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfwfreo:
I have been reading all the threads about the bootloader in the 2011 SE Xperia handsets (Arc, Play etc) and from what I have read, here is what I can understand:

1.Some Play/Arc/etc handsets come with an option in the firmware that allows you to visit a SE web site and get an "unlock code" that then allows you to unlock the bootloader and flash new kernels and whatever.

2.Other handsets (mostly those sold by carriers) do not have this option

3.Various people have been working on a solution to allow unlocking of the not-unlockable handsets (and also the unlockable handsets in a way that allowed certain SE official apps like track id to keep working)

4.Progress was made and it looked like various people were going to post free solutions to unlock the bootloader and allow fastboot oem unlock to work (and hence custom kernels etc)

5.The people who figured out how to unlock them stopped working on a free solution and started offering a for-pay solution.

My questions are this:

1.Is there in fact a solution to unlock these phones?

2.Does the solution in fact cost money or is there a free option?

and 3.If the solution costs money, can anyone tell me why the developers are charging for it instead of giving it away for free? (everyone I see on e.g. HTC forums or the like with such solutions have given it away for free and posted full steps and etc so why is the SE stuff different?)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dousan:
1. Yes there's a solution and people has used it.

2. Yes it does cost a little cash to unlock sim/carrier locked plays.

3. It cost money cuz the tools the devs are using cost's them money/credits to use. SE's phones are constructed differently than HTC's phones and they probably stopped cuz it wasn't doable or would take to much work?

Afaik they don't make any dough on this and even if they did make a small amount it's ok by me. They put in the work for us in a lot of other development for free ;)

Regards Dousan...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
The only two solutions to bootloader unlock factory locked phones are omnius and SEtool. Both these services require "credits" to use. The people offering the unlocks are not charging for personal gain. They are just covering there own overheads.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solitarymonkey:
And in my opinion, for unlocking the true potential of the phone, the fee I paid (as well as many other users) is very much worth it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfwfreo:
Ok so how come no-one has tried to come up with a free solution that bypasses these for-pay options? Or is everyone satisfied enough with the for-pay solutions that there is no interest in a free option?

Or is the fact that unlocking the bootloader also removes the carrier lock as a side effect a factor here?

Not trying to harp on anyone here, just wondering why the hackers (who normally tend to try and break as many limitations as possible) have given up on trying to find a proper free solution...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solitarymonkey:
Things take time to hack. They probably just need time to find an easy enough way of doing something that doesn't infringe copyright and such. Just a guess
