[Acer Iconia A500] samaliset:
Hi all,

Today the volume button of my iconia had been broken (keeps flate). The device is operating under Honeycomb ROM 1.2. Since it is still under guarantee, I wish to know if it is necessary to revert to Acer original Stuck ROM? if yes then how? or Acer would not make an issue with Honeycomb ROM.

The problem actually is that even though I can boot with Acer Recovery installer, I can't navigate through the menu with that Volume button.

Thanks for your advice

I actually have the manual as well, devrruti but sadly it doesn't provide much info on how to stick the touch screen back to the frame, only tells us to use something like a "pressure tool" set at 60N and press the touchscreen towards the frame.

But we don't have that kind of tool so there must be a workaround...

[HTC Desire S] foouser:
Hi,

The release of the stable CM7.1 really encouraged me to finally S-OFF my phone and install it. I used Revolutionary 0.4pre4, and installed CWM 5.0.20. I wiped everything (data, system, cache, dalvik, you name it), and installed the CM7.1 update zip and right afterwards the new Google apps zip. Eventually, I used Fix Permissions, and rebooted.

I was quite happy, until I saw the com.android.phone FC message. It just showed the same message over and over. I updated my radio to the latest version, to no avail. I tried reformatting, re-wiping, reinstalling quite a few times, and I even tried 3 different sim cards. I finally decided to go back to RUU (kept S-OFF), and didn't get any FCs.

I'm really frustrated, since it is my first Android phone, and I really believe I tried everything already.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire S] budingyun:
I got no problem at all until now.
[HTC Desire S] foouser:
Another thing I've discovered is when I get these FCs, sometimes if I enable the bluetooth, the phone suddenly discovers the network and the FCs stop. That's just very odd, to me.

I really hope that's not a problem with my phone (especially since it does work properly with RUU).
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Nothing has ever broken my phone quite as much as when I have done the 'fix permissions' thing. Totally screwed my phone and was FC city. I've never done it since, and never had any problems since. Try going back over your steps and leave out the fix permissions part!

I recently had a quick go with CM7 nightlies and had no issues. This included the last nightly before it became stable which was very close to the stable version.

Tried doing the same process without fixing permissions, twice already, and I still get the same problem.

[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Odd. Here is how I did mine, step-by-step. (Do a NANDroid backup before this, and copy it to your PC/Mac.)

1. Install latest 4EXTRecovery from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1130004

2. Use this to format all partitions to EXT4. (Not sure if you are using EXT3, not sure if it matters, just saying I'm on EXT4 formatting with no issues.)

3. Do the full wipe & manual format routine (including boot) again just in case!

4. Flashed CM7.

5. Flashed Gapps.

6. Flashed Tiamat kernel (1.1.4)

7. Reboot.

I'm used the same radio as in my sig but also doubt that matters. Not sure what else to suggest. Try downloading the ROM again, and compare the MD5 of your two downloads.

I used this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17481836&postcount=2 to get back to S-ON, but when I tried to flash back the RUU, I get a CUSTOMER ID ERROR and the flash fails.

I've tried two RUUs: RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed

Never mind, I actually created a goldcard in order to bypass the CUSTOMER ID error and flashed my phone back to original and S-ON. Thanks anyways.

Just as a note to everyone, you should really go about getting back to S-ON via this way: Flash any RUU, get the original HBOOT image from that RUU (you can find it in your temp folder while flashing the RUU), and then just downgrade the HBOOT using fastboot. Easier than going through ENG HBOOT, and allows you to avoid these kind of problems (CID errors).

Sure, it's really the same process for all HTC phones and works even on the newest models (Sensation generation). Thanks a lot to EFI from AlphaRev who actually pointed me in the right direction.

I used this guide: http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/

I'm using Windows 7 x64 and when I inserted the card after modifying it, Windows required me to format it (as opposed to what's written in the above guide), but it still worked. Also, since my phone was stuck on HBOOT I had to use another Android phone to get the SD's CID (I used a friend's SGS, and the SD slot to query is mmc2 on it).

Well, I actually didn't use Titanium Backup at all, so nope.

Do you remeber the hype ours truly (and even GS1) generated when it pwned I4 in these same benches? They weren't bull**** then.

That's not what these marks underline, it's the way a lower specced system with a higher specced os comes on top. Remember last Tuesday? Everyone said the I4S is nowhere near SGS2. Why? Based on pure hardware. Would you expect an HTC or SE with the same specs as I4S and Android to get these marks?

I certainly hope Google optimise the &^%* out of IceCream or whatever system comes next, or this is the beginning of their downfall. They have been proved wrong with fragmentation of the OS and apps and now with their pumping of the hardware specs to compensate OS lackings.

the question is will our GS2 will have ICS? or just nexus prime and gs3!!!

please enlighten me if my questions above are already answered.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sakai4eva:
ICS will be for everyone.

What happened with Honeycomb (I'm speculating) is that the Google team used one too many workaround to get it to work on the Xoom (meeting launch deadlines and all that), so it's a bit more thank wonky. So they're not releasing it.

ICS will merge the Honeycomb and the Gingerbread builds into one unified release. Probably gonna call it Android 4.0 or something.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] snowfallen:
They would literally kill themselves if they wouldn't provide it for SGS2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ADropBear:
CPU-wise, SGS2 and IP4S are pretty similar. However the dual core GPU of IP4S wins by a rather significant margin.

The browser performance (SunSpider and BrowserMark) is heavily dependent on the software and browser implementation. From what I've gathered, Android GingerBread has yet to utilise dual core CPUs fully, which will be rectified in Ice Cream Sandwich. I don't know if running stock unmodded ROMs produce similar results to that of the chart, but I've managed 98k BrowserMark and 2400ms SunSpider (0.9 version) scores on CM7 using the stock Android browser. Using SunSpider 0.91 (which I suspect the IP4S is based on), I've got a nice 1750ms value. A very large disparity compared to the chart.

You guys could try running the browser benchmarks yourselves and see how your devices fare. Be sure to list your ROMs and versions!

SunSpider (Use the old 0.9 version to compare with the chart as the newer 0.91 version will produce a lower value)

BrowserMark

Here's mine as above:

ROM: CM7 Nightlies 78

Browser: Stock Android Browser

SunSpider 0.9: ~2400ms

SunSpider 0.91: ~1750ms

BrowserMark: ~98k

Lol, how it's a threat in saying I'll sell my I9100. I just said what I'd do! Jeez!

Let ICS to come first for our GSII then we should talk about what it could do. Don't forget a Benchmark result means how your hardware is performing with the software. Only stupids can ignore it. It's not Quadrant that we could ignore it as it's not customized for Dual Cores.

And as the above poster said, you can't really ignore benchmarks and only refer to them only when your device has the upper hand. This is not quadrant...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] htc9420:
...oh well.

Benchmarking and testing apples to what? lolipops or icecreams? LOL

If there is one thing to be noticed is the not the superior hardware or HOW LOUD THE FANBOYS will scream...everyone should notice how a proper coded OS behaves on decent hardware. It reflects the real Apple and how it was built by Jobs. From the secrecy to the final product. IOS5 was uber polished and hand carved to make sure it will hammer everything. And people have slept in front of an iStore and will sleep because of that. Nice design BUT exceptional dedicated OS. Apple is living off their phone line and Ipad and thay got to the top by carefully selecting hardware and amazing software for the humble user.

With Android, we have some coders building the kernel and giving it to Samsung. At Samsung they mangle with it and perhaps they say " uhm, we need more time to get it to work properly" and the design crew saves them: the thinnest device, super amoled + with macro shots, 1.2 dualcore... No add I ever saw went to say that Android is capable of taking advantage of the dual core to save battery, nope. and after 6 months and 10 million units sold, sammy can flip us the bird and move on to the next "flexible " supermega amoled. Sadly, it has came to this times when you buy an Android phone you buy the features not the OS, which should be a decisive factor.

While on Iphone/WP7 active browsing XDA forums is optional, the moment you have an Android device you're required to spend at least 4hrs weekly browsing forums trying to get your OS to work, digg up an leaked firmware that solves A but brings C issue....

I bet 100 bucks to anyone that if you can get WP7 to run on SGS2 it will shutter iPhone 4s to pieces.
