[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
I don't like the button and doubt how long it will work properly ! The button should have been made with more solid hardware as it's the only button you have on GSII.
[Galaxy S II General] lockieio:
sure i agree with you.IT LOOK'S SO SO CHEAP.

let's hear other opinions?
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
It's damn cheap. I hate the sound. Sometimes I click it once and it sounds as if I clicked twice. Hate it.
[Galaxy S II General] SugarySnack:
Maybe there are some quality control issues with the button. Mine is rock solid. It barely wiggles, and makes a satisfying click sound. WAY better than the home button I had on my iPhone 4.
[Galaxy S II General] ergath:
Now I've got rid of Touchwiz, that home button is the only fly in the ointment. The capacitive one on my DHD was so much nicer. Hopefully Samsung won't feel the need to continue copying this pointless feature of the iphone on any future phones.
[Galaxy S II General] Piosio:
I miss track ball with colors notification from nexus one... it was awesome!
[Galaxy S II General] lockieio:
Satisfying? I hate this sound. Like its some old mobile. I asked on another forum and they suggest takin to repair center.

Can you do a test?

Put your finger on the button and try it move left right,mine goes 2mm.

Also when you press button is there a click sound?

Why they didnt make like iphone...
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
I tried mine and it moves but nowhere close to 1 or 2 mm.. I checked with my ruler and it only moves .5mm :).. For me the clicking sound is not that loud and annoying..
[Galaxy S II General] Sparksltd:
Mine doesn't move at all. When presses in its makes a faint click and a duller faint click when released.
[Galaxy S II General] Stevekang 877:
Mine wiggles too but I don't think it will break easily. Sammy qc is not so bad compared to other companies. should be ok. I hope^^
[Galaxy S II General] prinzhernan:
Mine wiggles a bit but not like yours. Or maybe you're forcing it to wiggle? If I just press like normal it doesn't move or wiggle.
[Galaxy S II General] lockieio:
Lol what do you mean 5mm??? I will give mine to service center today...its realy moving and clicking sound enoys me so much...
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
I clearly typed .5 not 5 :)
[Galaxy S II General] Propergood:
My button's sideways shift is immeasurably small.. I'd guess 0.2 at the very most, only just enough to allow room for not pressing the centre... the click is a nice muted reassurance of interaction.

I didn't know it before... but I love my home button. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
[Galaxy S II General] mjeshurun:
Mine worked properly for about a month, then started to wiggle and sound as if I press it twice. It almost sounds like pressing a camera shutter, half press to focus and full press to take the shot.
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
Ditto! It worked fine but now after 2 months I feel as if I am clicking it twice just like camera button. Man, you're so right.!
[Galaxy S II General] Crocketeer:
I kind of like the feel and look of it actually. Now I've only had my phone for a week, but it doesn't move or anything like that for me!

I've always preferred hardware buttons too, especially for the home button. Playing around with my friend's Nexus S was horrid because of those buttons, same goes for another friend's Incredible S.

I'm hoping it lasts past this 2 month mark though, you guys are scaring me now.
[Galaxy S II General] kenkie:
i rarely used the home button of my gs2 (sometimes not at all)...i installed button savior in replace...Ü
[Galaxy S II General] lockieio:
you install what? can you explain?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] camoto:
Is it me or do DPI changes not stick on this phone? I wanted to drop from 240 to 220 and after every reboot my changes disappear in build.prop....:mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] camoto:
Figured it out. I needed to "Fix Permissions" in CWM.

The notification sound when you connect the USB is bothersome, I don't need to be alerted when it's plugged in. is there any way to disable it?
[Vibrant General] L1LK1LLERZ:
Hey guys,

I was just wondering if there is any app that can record our screen! Like not a screenshot. !

If there is please send me the apk!
[Vibrant General] coolairG1:
Yes, there is. It is called Screencast video recording. Look it up in the Market. I've tried it, it works pretty good.
[Vibrant General] sahil04:
I think shoot me had an update allowing it to record screen casts as well.
[Vibrant General] nerve101:
Hey thanks I actually wanted this app. too can't wait to try it out
[Vibrant General] L1LK1LLERZ:
Alright thanks guys! You are the best!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] enigmaisdead:
Just a heads-up to anyone who may have purchased at Best Buy. I was there picking up The Lion King 3D yesterday morning (don't judge me!) and while waiting in line at customer service for them to apply my pre-order to my transaction, I noticed that the Bionic's tag listed $229.99. I immediately went to the girl working Best Buy Mobile and asked her to refund me the difference, which was done with no problem, as Best Buy offers 30 days for mobile hardware returns.

So if you snagged up your Bionic at Best Buy, get back there before your 30 days are up and get yourself some moolah back. My difference was $74.20! Hope this helps someone out. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] RoyVegasPinoy:
I had best buy price match radio shack's $199 price =)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jpen:
You didn't have to swap phones or anything? What did you say? I really want to to this!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] enigmaisdead:
Nope. She just pulled up my receipt (because I asked her if I had to run home to get it) and they did a return/resale and just refunded me the difference. Piece 'o cake.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jpen:
How did you ask her to do it? Sorry, the guys at my best buy are douches so I just want to ask the right way ....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] enigmaisdead:
I just went up to her and said, "I just noticed that the Bionic is considerably cheaper than when I bought it. Since there's a 30-day return policy on phone hardware, I can be refunded the difference, right?" She immediately confirmed. I can't promise they'll be nice enough to look up your receipt or not make you bring in your packaging and such (if they are, indeed, douches) but per policy, they can't tell you no, so long as it's within 30 days.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jpen:
Awesome man! Thanks for all your help...going to do this tomorrow...ill let you know how it goes!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jpen:
Worked like a charm! I think the kid was new cuz he just did it haha...thanks for all the info man!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] enigmaisdead:
Glad it worked for you! Happy to help out. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] willbur73:
Yes, because best buy has a 30 day price match guarantee on just about everything they sell. This applies to their own changes in price and to "local businesses" pricing. So if walmart/radioshack lowered the bionic best buy will match the competitor price if you are in 30 days of your phone purchase.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Cheese78:
Thanks for this. I hit day 30 today and still managed to get the refund. Good find.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Anyone here in the Wa state and having Connection issues? Was on a call when it dropped (which was odd first time it's happened) and getting a msg saying I'm roaming on data.

[Captivate General] Nick0703:

[Captivate General] staplas:
nevermind link is working now but please help on how to work the rom
[Captivate General] Nick0703:
When you finished downloading the ROM, put your phone into Download mode by removing the battery first then put it back it after that press both Volume +/- button and plug in the usb cable. Now on Odin, place the downloaded file into the PDA slot. Then place this file (http://www.mediafire.com/?gjxjcydsazdv6rb) into the PIT slot and check re-partition. And click Start to start the flashing.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] HonkDragonfly:
For all of you evo 4g users. I decided to create this thread to share my experiences with Kernels, so that others may learn from it. This is going to be my journal, explaining what happens when I flash certain kernels. Battery life, stability, etc etc.

I am currently using CM 7.0.3.1 with Savage Zen 2.2.1 BFS SBC and AMAN RA to flash.

I've been using Savage zen for several months, the battery life is phenomenal, and works very well with my Extended SEDIO battery. I literally have no problems with SZ kernels. Not just because of the battery life, but because of it's stability.

I have just received news that the Savage Zen team may not be making any more updated kernels...this makes me extremely sad so I've decided to try other kernels out now. I am almost depressed...but life moves on.

So here is a list of AOSP kernals that I have SO FAR tried other then SZ :

Tiamat EVO 4.0.8 SBC

The stability is great, and of course it being SBC along with my extended battery, let's just say it doesn't drain :P My only problem with Tiamat, is it lets me overclock it past 1190, but when I try, my phone freezes. I have a problem with this because I'm always tinkering with set cpu, and it's only going to be a giant tease to me and I'm going to crash my phone trying to experiment. I don't want the option to overclock it that far, if my evo isn't going to remain stable.

Godmode Kernel

So far so good I flashed it, and removed dalvik cache/cache/battery cache, I love it. I miss SBC though. I'll post my experiences with this kernel after I've been running it for a few days and have charged it from 10% to full over night.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mdfzhi:
its "kernel" btw :p
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] HonkDragonfly:
An update!

I am now running Synergy mod RLS1+ Godmode.

I never thought I would enjoy the sense UI this much, it's so far the fastest rom that I've used, although I have yet to overclock it and it's running @ 998.

Am now attempting to install Aggressive synergy Godmode!

I will tell you how it goes :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] HonkDragonfly:
I apologize for never finishing this, life got so busy that I completely spaced it and forgot all about this. Mods you can delete it if possible thanks!

Lol but yeah, this was already discussed here. I think someone is working on porting it.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejavecu:
I am running Trigger 3.0.1 and I have noticed my Vibrant has become more and more buggy. It will exit out of the dialer until rebooted. Youtube will not play videos sometimes until the device is rebooted. It has had issues of becoming very hot with use especially if using it while charging. It does not recognize its internal or external storage. Wifi has stopped working (fixed by using wifi fixer). My computer did not recognize it all but eventually it (Windows 7) recognizes it but only as a cd rom with no other access to the device. I'm rom rich but functioning poor. Thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
Odin, flash trigger, start configuring again.

Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejavecu:
Odin doesn't recognize it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaintfm:
1st step: Get the latest Samsung Windows 7 drivers. Can find a link to them through the Vibrant Bible.

2nd step: I've never used Trigger myself, but if it's causing you this many problems I'd switch to a different, more stable ROM. If you can't do it through recovery, ODIN back to stock first (assuming step one fixed that problem) and go from there. I'd recommend MIUI if you want a unique smartphone experience, or the Froyo version of Zendroid if you want a hassle free experience.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejavecu:
I updated the driver. No dice.

join and register to htcdev. after begin bootloader.

you need these files in one folder.

adb.exe

AdbWinApi.dll

fastboot.exe

and you wil see next steps. i cant do it. my bootloader give error. because its already unlocked with xtc clip. try it and write results to here.
[HTC Wildfire S] aparici:
This isn't compatible with the wildfire s. Only compatible with the phone models in green on the htcdev.com website.
[HTC Wildfire S] *se-nsei.:
It works with the HTC servers as they send you a code during the process. The phone must be updated OTA beforehand anyway and there haven't been any updates yet. So WFS isn't supported yet.

Could you do yourself a favor and asked a mod to delete this thread, as I did with minds. False information and completly useless and it makes you look like a spaz.

PM me the link and i will post it for you.
[Motorola Droid X2] appl3mac:
That does suck because where I could help I can't like the "Developers Forum" also the link posting. Really blows for us.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
What does it look like?
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
It's from the teaser trailer. It's light cycles.
[Motorola Droid X2] IDMA.DROID.X2:
Id like to try this, but when ever I try to flash a bootanimation or copy and paste one to system/media/ it doesn't work and the bootanimation it plays is "android" with silver flashing across it. Any help?
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
Are you making sure that you rename the file bootanimation.zip?
[Motorola Droid X2] IDMA.DROID.X2:
Yeah. It happens when I try other bootanimations too. I checked data/local too to make sure another bootanimation wasn't there.
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
That's quite odd. I've never encountered that problem. It should at least be using the original bootanimation or have a black screen.
[Motorola Droid X2] IDMA.DROID.X2:
Ill reflash Eclipse and try it again. I want to see this boot animation one way or another! Haha
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
I'm going to pm you the links seeing as I'm not allowed to post them yet.
[Motorola Droid X2] IDMA.DROID.X2:
Got it! Reflashed Eclipse and got it working! Nice boot animation! I like how its full screen too!

I think I'm going to stick with no splash screen and tron boot animation. Looks sick, great job!

Once I get on a comp, ill click thanks!
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
Thank you! It's great to hear that someone other than myself likes it.
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
Links are up!
[Motorola Droid X2] K33pw1shen:
If you download boot animation changer off the market you can just choose import animations after you download one and then just apply it ...it makes it easier for me then moving files all around

I'm having the same problem...I've changed animations before with no probs..permissions need to be changed?? Thanks for any input in advance
[Motorola Droid X2] mattfox27:
do you have a preview? want me to make one for you?
[Motorola Droid X2] Furioustylez:
Place in system/media. Make sure sound is in audio folder. .ogg file name must match in text file.
[Motorola Droid X2] rp076:
Yea that's what I did & it just shows android at the boot screen
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
I don't have a preview. If you would like to make one that would be fine, I will post the link and give you credit obviously. I wouldn't be able to get around to doing it myself until sometime Tuesday.
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
Have you tried reflashing your rom if you are running one?
[Motorola Droid X2] KennyKusanagi:
Can anyone Re-Up?
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
If I can find it I will re upload it.
[Motorola Droid X2] projectzro:
OP if you are running CM sound is disabled for boot animations. It causes problems in there rom in development and makes it take longer to boot.
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
I was running eclipse at the time I believe. Im going to assume it was because the ogg file wasn't properly converted.
[Motorola Droid X2] Triscuit:
Hey could someone re-up these files? MegaUpload is under attack by "The Man"
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
I'm 99 percent sure I don't have the files anymore. I can try to redo it but its gonna be a while. I've got a ton of stuff going on right now.
[Motorola Droid X2] Triscuit:
No worries!

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danielfr:
Hi,

I would like to turn my Transformer into a secure Wi-Fi hotspot to share the Internet with other mobile devices. I know that such a program exists for Windows 7, it is called connectify. The purpose is to use my Transformer for example in an hotel , so my mobile phone could connect via Wifi to the Internet via my Transformer and so avoiding to have to pay another fee for using Wifi for my phone.

Thanks for help.

Daniel
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavsoldier19d:
If you go to Settings > Wireless & Networks > Tethering & Portable Hotspot, > Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot you can enable this feature here, providing that you already have an existing internet connection. Then go to Configure Wi-Fi hotspot to configure the security settings. (Android Version 3.2)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
"enable wifi hotspot" is grey out and can't be chosen.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danielfr:
No, it doesn't work. When I am enabling portable Wi-fi Hotspot, I don't have anymore an internet connection. You can't enable both: portable Wifi-hotspot and " simple" wifi. If you try to enable Wifi, you loose the portable Wifi-hotspot.

Daniel
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duggles:
I'm not sure that the antenna can handle taking in wifi and dishing it out at the same time.

I just tried doing a backwards bluetooth tether, but with the built in tools I can't tell my phone to use my Transformer for internet, only the other way around. But, you could just do that, put your phone on the hotel wifi and tether from there.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danielfr:
Yes, I know you can share your 3G network from your phone to your Asus via WiFi but it is not what I am looking for.

i experience alot of lags and hangs in menu. how can this be fixed. i just bought it and i wanna throw it away!?

hard reseted it.....and the problem appears again afer 1 day of usa. soft reset works well for 1-2 hours then the same!

shi**y phone!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] mbba67:
just upgrade to 2.3.4 , i think this will clear ur problem...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] samyeung97hk:
We would use lagfix if the devs made it
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] larry200ro:
You realy have 2 options :

1. Go to warranty with it (if you have one)

2. If you don't have warranty just flash android 2.3.4 and I assure you that this will be fixed
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Mikolak28:
Bulls**t.

From the 5 SGS+ users I know, every single one of them (including me) has the sceen/menu lag problem, and we all have different Android versions, 2.3.3, 2.3.4, not to mention different branding.

I contacted Samsung and they can't (or won't) fix it.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] larry200ro:
can you describe what do you mean by screen/menu lag?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Maigel:
All using TWLauncher? Have you tried another launchers (GO Launcher EX runs smoothly in my phone)?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] larry200ro:
A reason might be a underclock of the processor in order to increase the battery life. You might want to install ROM Toolbox and check at what frequency is the processor working (the device will need to be rooted)

You can also check if the processor is getting hot >43 degrees(battery booster on the market can help you with that)

Please reply with response and if my post helped press on thanks
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Mikolak28:
I tried using different launchers - didn't help.

As to the processor frequency thing - it might very well be the case, since the screen wakes up instantly when I'm listening to music (so using more processor power).

I'll check that out as soon as I figure out how to flash 2.3.4 :P
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] larry200ro:
I'l advise you on how to flash it...give me a PM when you are available
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] gangstar:
2.3.4 not yet available ota
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] igor_999:
After Upgrading to 2.3.4 rooting and removing twlauncher I have no lag problems any more, ADW, Launcher Pro and Zeam are all working just fine. I know of others that have upgraded to 2.3.4 and still have a 2s lag when waking the phone so IMHO removing twlauncher may be key....
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Mikolak28:
Yeah, but by removing TW, won't Kies stop working?

ETA:

After rooting my phone and installing CPU Master, I can honestly say it is, as mentioned before, because of the CPU.

It's usually down to 250mhz ondemand when sleeping, and when i bumped it up to 800 performance, it instantly turned on, no delay.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] igor_999:
Well I personally don't see the need for Kies apart from providing the USB drivers so that doesn't really bother me...... but if you were a big Kies user then I guess that would be a show stopper .....
