its so hard to decide as alot of ppl say that one is best or another one, like this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1301684 says Gintonic is best :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hansip87:
For Mini Pro, absoultely GinTonic right now, but some minor issue like G-sensor is still there, not a biggie. :)

Generally GingerDX based ROM is safe enough to be called stable on its base function.

Maybe we should propose a system to create a matrix for each ROM of what features works great, ok, buggy, not.

I think this could be better to select a ROM because: It is quite difficult to select one (and I'am too lazy too try all them)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bomek44:
I have used these since early september. GinTonic --> GingerDX --> Flame.E --> GinTonic again.

Everyone of these is great in my opinion, went back to GinTonic today and the last version is really great.

And i havent got any FC since i switched from stock kernel to Zombie Panic, slade87 have done a really fantastic work, both with kernel and rom.

Of course all the other devs is great too, without all you devs my Mini Pro would be very boring, but it feels that i got a new phone every time i upgrade/change ROM/kernel.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Contrarian:
GingerDX or any other ROM/port by Stelios97.

Having said that, there's nothing wrong with SE's official 2.1 ROM either.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kmimix:
I used gintonic in the past, it was pretty good, then I changed to minicm7 pro v16 and was pretty happy with it for a couple of weeks until the new version (v17) was released.

So far it's pretty stable, the battery lasts a bit more than a day with light wifi usage and lots of sms's. The only thing that doesn't work is the radio, but besides that it's quite stable so far.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leohongkong:
Hi there,

First of all, the firmware info of my GT-I9100 is as follow:

PDA:ZSKI3

PHONE: XXKI3

Date: 23/09/2011

Android 2.3.5

I am currently stuck on a firmware issue and it's in real need to be rescued. Here's the full story.

The device firmware recently just got an upgrade to ZSKI3 through KIES. However, it was pretty upsetting as the upgraded official stock ROM from Samsung still contains bugs (the upgrade aggravated the previous problem as it drains the battery rapidly, still) and thus I made a decision and took the risk, by downloading the official ROM and kernel from the following thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

and had an attempt revert to my previous firmware version (PDA: ZSKG2; PHONE: XXKG1) by flashing it through Odin. Unfortunately, the program stated the flash process as "failed" on the status bar. Consequently, the phone could not be booted with a message stating "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" whenever it turns on.

This is what it shows on Odin as a result of flash failure,

<ID:0/008> Added!!

<ID:0/008> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

Such action sounds idiotic but I wasn't really aware of such issue before hand.

May I ask whether there is any firmware rescue method to resolve such problem?

Thanks in advance.

It finally happened - my HTC S740 was stolen a couple of days ago and I now have to decide what to do next: get a used one on eBay or find a worthy successor.

Is there a consensus what such a successor would look like? I remember a phrase by one of the wise men of this forum to the extent that "screens are not in the world to be touched" a view which I subscribe to wholeheartedly. So the new machine would have to be a non-touchscreen as well as have a retractable keyboard, just as the S740 does.

Please enlighten me !

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pspuser007:
Hello,

I want you to recommend me a stable, problem-causing--free clockworkmod recovery.

I had 2.5.0.7 and then upgraded to 5.0.2.0 but when took a nandroid backup, I had noticed that the ext-4 partition was saved as .tar not .img.

Also, if I recall correctly I had created a new partition with ext-3 partition, NOT ext-4.

I flashed CM7-225 and then tried restoring.

I cannot restore my backup :(

Everytime it restores sd-ext or I get an error ("Error restoring sd-ext") and when tried "format sd-ext" recovery would freeze.

(It's possible that my transcend 8GB 6class SD got corrupted -> As I reflashed CM7-stable, and installed simple2ext at the top right corner I got "SD-EXT:--" and I had created an ext-3 partition via Recovery).

I tried flashing the stock rooted rom 2.29.405.5 found here but I got a problem installing it due to amend scripting not used in newer versions of recoveries ( after version 3) so I reflashed the old recovery 2.5.0.7 to be able to flash the aforementioned rom.

So what I have now is a:

Rom: Stock-Rooted 2.29.405.5 (I really like sense)

NOT ext partition and ONLY 55MB :( --have to change that :/

A probably corrupted 8GB 6class Transcend microSD :/

Now using the samsung 4GB microSD that was included in the box

The device is S-OFF, rooted

I am thinking of buying this microSD card (maybe tomorrow).

So what I need is:

1)Which recovery do you recommend? Will I be able to flash stock rooted 2.29.405.5 rom?

2)Are the app2sd and alike scripts causing problems to the microsd cards?

3)If I buy the samsung microsd and create a 1GB ext partition via gparted live cd(I have never done it before but I hear that it is really good) would I be able to restore the nandroid backup I have?

4)What if I cannot restore the nandroid backup, if I prepare the new samsung microSD with an ext3 partition, and flash a script for apps2sd will it transfer the apps installed at the device's memory to the partition?

Thank you for your help!

Sorry for the big thread:o:)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
1) I use 2.5.0.7 personally as its the latest official (stable) version. Although given all these issues maybe try AmonRA 2.0.1

2) probably due to dodgy partition

3) not with AmonRA. Cwm and amon are not compatible. Probably best to forget that backup for now

4) yes
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pspuser007:
Thank you for the reply!

1.So, I will stick with 2.5.0.7! This was the one that I was using, but I saw a thread about a new version and that's why I flashed the new one.

2.What do you mean whit "dodgy"?

3.So with the CWM recovery I would not be able to restore it, right? :/

I have already created a new installation and will buy the new microSD..

Is there any way to be sure that my transcend microSD is corrupted?

Is this samsung microSD a good one?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlager:
I just upgraded to 2.3.5 from 2.3.3 with the XXKI3 firmware and my activesync email accounts no longer work properly. Basically most of the time, emails are not pushed to the phone unless I actually go into the email app which causes a refresh which obviously retrieves the emails.

Before updating to 2.3.5, emails would arrive to my phone almost instantly, without having to open the email app and I'd get the notification etc and all was good. Now emails very rarely arrive instantly, most often if I don't touch the phone, they won't arrive until hours later.

I've done a factory reset and readded all email accounts but still have the same problem.

It makes no difference whether I'm connected to wifi or cell network.

Ideas?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzour:
Did you set peak/off-peak schedules? you may try to select "push" in BOTH peak/off-peak schedules and see if the email will push through immediately. Mine came with 2.3.4 and checking "push" for both schedules seems to fix the problems.

Please confirm what you get. I found that the peak/off-peak schedules (for push) may be reversed, but I am still experimenting.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlager:
Unfortunately both Peak and Off Peak are set to Push so it shouldn't matter :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzour:
I have tried the whole day, by receiving more than 40 emails with different types of attachments. with both peak and off-peak set "push" , I did get them shortly after like the push should do. Did your 2.3.5 come with the phone then, or is it a cooked Rom flashed? Sorry can't help much beyond this point because it works with 2.3.4 stock Rom coming with my phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlager:
Phone came with 2.3.3 but the battery life absolutely sucked. Battery life is waaay better with 2.3.5 but now I have this issue instead and I don't know which is worse.

Maybe I should go to 2.3.4 instead? If so, which one... I'm fairly new at flashing firmware.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzour:
I don't know much about the cooked rom of 2.3.4, but like the cooked 2.3.5 you just found out, different roms may have different pros and cons. I think the cookers out there are really genius, but they may not have enough time and resources to respond to the needs of their users in a timely manner (there are reported problems of lagging for Kies 2.3.4: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1302244).

I would recover the original stock rom 2.3.3 that came with your phone, but buy a backup battery to overcome the battery consumption since stock 2.3.3 does fulfill your need of using push emails. As you know, the internet phones like ours, including HTC Inspire and iphone, all suffer from same problems of severe power consumption. If the push email is your only concern about your stock rom 2.3.3, then a backup battery may be the simplest fix.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlager:
I have a backup battery (two actually) but it got very inconvenient to keep switching. I understand phones like these use a lot of battery but the ridicilous battery consumption in 2.3.3 was a known bug which 2.3.4 fixed (and 2.3.5 too of course.) I'd really rather not go back to 2.3.3 but if I decide to, I don't know how to be honest. I realize it may not have been the smartest thing to go to 2.3.5 without fully understanding how to flash the firmware etc and which firmware to choose but I was desperate to use my phone for more than 5 hours without changing the battery :)

I followed this guide which is specficially for a Samsung Galaxy S2 on Bell, which is my carrier so it seemed fairly safe:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1282269

Xenon flashes need large capacitors to store the energy to light the bulb. They suck down tons of power from the battery; amp it up then blast the bulb and that's what gives it is nice bright flash. Those things are big and thick is part of the problem however.

Hey guys,

im going crazy here.

When im receiving a MMS (it is downloaded and in list) the notification icon (the number in the icon) flashes with about every half second.

no matter if goSMS or the standard HTC messaging app, both the same.

and when i want to open the mms, its nearly impossible, because of the flashing which slows the messaging apps down. its almost as if the mms keeps constantly switches between "read"-status and "unread"-status.

i installed alogcat and what it shows is:

V/MmsProvider (1449) Update uri=content://mms/5, match=1

V/MmsProvider (1449) Update uri=content://mms/5, match=1

V/MmsProvider (1449) selection=null

E/MmsProvider (1449) update exception java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:Empty values

V/MmsProvider (1449) Broadcasting intent: Intent { act=android.intent.action.CONTENT_CHANGED (has extras) }

and this part is repeated fastly...about the speed the icon is flashing.

can anybody help me?

i did a hard-reset today, but still the same problem...

I have the latest Gingerbread non-branded update which went over the air.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Apo14:
okay...its resolved...

Loky Plus Messenger was causing this error, because it wants to get between the messaging app and the receiving part...
