[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadernal:
I hate typing from my phone but I had to get into this conversation....

I have both phones and I personally think they are both great and each has its pros and cons, but it really all comes down to personal preference.

For me the silent switch isn't a big deal. I mainly leave my phone.on vibrate to begin with so I don't really care.

The physical home bbutton is also unimportant to me. On the iPhone I tend to use the power button to wake the screen up because its more convinient/comfortable for mu large hands and also because all my iPhone home butttons wore out over time becoming less responsive.

For day to day use you will see very little difference. The only thing that runs faster on the 4s is the camera is quicker, but really not by much. Unless you are taking a bunch of upskirts at the bus stop, this isn't a big deal. I guess maybe if you have small kids it could be a game changer.

Benchmark tests aren't the best way to judge a phone. I have bee. Able tto tweak my phone to score 10k higher on quadrant with some minor changes.

The biggest factor I think is what do you want out of your phone?

For me I want to be able to do anything I want on my phone. What good is all this processing power if you are limited in its use?

For ios the answer to this is a series.of tweaks and mods that apple is constantly combatting. What works on one firmware version is likely to be fully squashed or broken on the next release. So you can opt to have the things you want and be left out of the new apple updates until the jb community catches up or be stock and limited to what apple says is ok. That's fine but after years of compromise I'm just worn out. Because when it comes down to it, a jailbroken iPhone does not perform as well as a stock firmware phone.

All the cool tweaks and stuff you put on the phone take away the overall feel of the phone... put barrel and a live background on your jailbroken iPhone and see how it handles it. Android does a lot of this stuff out of the box and runs well. So its hard for me to.say.ios is better or runs better.

Then there are tethered jailbreaks..

And wow if you have ever used one of these you know how useless they are.

The battery life of the 4s kills the s2 tho
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Recalesce:
iPhone 4S :

Battery Life is phenomenal

Arguably more quality apps (better looking anyways)

iOS just seems boring after using Android

GS2 :

Widgets

Quite a bit more customizable

You have a phone that isn't an iPhone (it's annoying having a phone EVERYONE else has)

I am not receiving all texts when under CM7. I have my phone integrated with Google Voice but the texts also come to the stock text message app. In CM7, I will not receive all of the texts, but as soon as I flash back to Synergy, I start receiving the ones I didn't receive before.

Has anyone else seen this or know how to fix it? I would really like to use CM7.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProjectA1xx:
Ok so i recently tried to boot The Platypus rom and it had success but now my phone has just been looping from the original sgh screen and then it will flash the Platypus boot and then it will appear for about 3 seconds, after that sometimes in will show CWR and then for a split second the yellow triangle will show up. My phone just keeps doing it over and over. I tried to recover but it says there no recovery :(

How do i fix this?!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fromthestars:
hey, sorry bro..my advice sort of got you here. But from what your describing...if that were to happen to me. I would straight up pull battery, plug in usb cable...hold volume down while re-inserting battery. bam download mode. Back to stock. Repeat from start.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProjectA1xx:
WOW:D, I tried to go into download mode 50 times and it never worked, as soon as i read your post and do it exactly as you said it worked :p

Thanks

EDIT: Ok so by phone desided to do that again and doing the battery pull isnt working :l just loop de loop. When I do try to get into download mode it show the battery with the loading circle and just goes to Platypus and to CWR and loop.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eph5networks:
So I rooted with Odin using the "SPH-D710_Zedomax_Kernel.tar" and then unrooted with Odin using the "acs-eg30-stock-kernel-pulled.tar". Once I unrooted everytime I boot my phone up I get this error message:

'gaudi_bootimage.jpg' draw failed

and I boot into System Recovery (manual mode), and if my phone is plugged into laptop or wall charger when I power down I receive the following error message

'charging.jpg' draw failed

Even when I root back, it still always boots into recovery mode and boot up error message is replaced with the Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 splash screen, but I still get the 'charging.jpg' draw failed error.

On both occasions (root or unroot) I can still select reboot system now and the phone finally boots up fine, but I'm trying to eliminate the jpg boot and charge error messages and boot directly into he phone without having to select it in recovery. I have done a complete factory wipe with the same results as described above. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slixzen:
try reflashing the stock pulled .tar file? and a nandroid backup/stock OS?

Looks like some files may be corrupt.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eph5networks:
I have tried reflashing the stock pulled .tar file and resetting to factory defaults, neither of these worked. Are the files 'gaudi_bootimage.jpg' and 'charging.jpg' something I can place in a specific directory that will avoid this boot up into recovery problem? I'd like to overwrite those potential corrupt files with good ones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
They are in /mnt/.lfs

I'll see if I can pull them and post for you.

Oh wow!

There's a treasure trove of stuff in this directory. I think it's hidden but using Android Webkey I got to it. I'll post some other "boot" images from here. The initial "Samsung Galaxy S II" image isn't the only one. I like the Iron Droid one, though it doesn't seem complete.

Anyway, here's the .zip of all the images in that directory.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
I saw you wiped fator reset. But dis you also wipe the cache and dalvik? Then do clean install with CWM 5.x.x.x ? I would recomend that id u haven't tried thus yet
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naulakkim:
Hello, I got the same problem as you. I still don't know how to do it. please, Let me know if you know any way to fix it. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eph5networks:
Alright a quick update (not positive):

I copied the files onto the /mnt folder, but unfortunately after I copy them they still don't appear in the directory. I reboot and I still receive the same 'gaudi_bootimage.jpg' draw failed & 'charging.jpg' draw failed. I do have root access by the way and I'm copying these to the directory using Root Explorer.

I also took the following steps:

Installed CWM 5.0.2.3

Performed a nanroid backup

formatted the system volume under 'mount and storage'

wiped data/factory reset

wiped cache partition

wiped dalvik cache

All that still with no success.

Another thing I'm noticing is when these error messages show (on boot & after power down while connected to charging source) it automatically boots into recovery. There has to be some way or place these files are being called for me to replace them to make this annoying issue go away. Any more suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
So you have tried reinstalling CWM to see if it helps?

Seems (no expert here) that something is corrupted. Not sure exactly what but possibly part of the internal storage or the primary or secondary bootloader. I really hate to jump to something that extreme but i just don't see another reason it would be acting up like that.

I would download CWM one more time and check the MD5 before using ODIN to flash it. If it still does it - return to stock (remove the yellow triangle if you have it) and take it back to the store. Should be under warranty still.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sscoleman:

Rooted my wife's continuum. No problem. Go to install new ROM, major issues. Every one I try causes errors when I try to activate wireless to re-install her apps. Usually locks the system and forces a battery pull. Tried EC-07 clean, the Nuckin ROM, stock again, no luck. Any ideas?

Baseband is s:i400.0.6v.ec06

Firmware is 2.2.2

Build is EC07
[Continuum General] Revs_ut:
I'm guessing the radio and build should be the same, correct? If I have a EC07 build then I need the EC07 radio.
[Continuum General] Txwolf1980:
Normally, yes. But in our case, you have the correct radio annd kernel? Assuming that you wiped and reset, my dirst guess would be a bad flash. If you made a nandroid, i would revert and try avain eith freah downloads of the files (to be sure).

The deodexed rom that ciscogee posted is the one im on. Its debloated as well. But the clean you have is good. I havent tried them, but nukin and joshkoss's roms are said to be pretty good as well. When i said bad flash, i wasnt insinuating that the rom was bad, but that something got screwed up in the flash process.

That being said, nuckins is the most bare bones of the lot, if that is what you think will work for her.

Hi folks,

Ok I belive I have tried everything now to get rid of all my picasa pictures in the gallery on my tablet included reading the forum and the rest of internet and now my brain is soon exploding.

Ok I have a Iconia tablet with Taboonay 2.2 custom rom

What have I done:

-I have stopped automatic sync option in account/sync to my gmail account, there is now way to tick off gmail,contacts,calendar and picasa.

Only option is to stop auto sync with the gmail account itself.

-in settings/app menu I have closed down gallery app and clear data

-with astro I have deleted cache in ..android/data/com.android.gallery3d and

..android/data/com.google.android.gallery3d

-then I have wiped dalvik in recovery

but the pictures comes back like magic in front of my eyes every time I have tried.

Is there a solution some place out in the universe?

I agree with darkdata, meXdroidMod is one of the fastest and cleanest roms I've ever ran. If it doesn't suit your taste then there is always Bulletproof Miui by tun4fish which is what I've been running lately. It's highly customizable fast and clean. Make a nandroid backup of your current rom and play around with roms to find what suits you best, you can always return to a backup if you don't like them
