[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kriEv:
LOL

yeah well, we should be fine. It's the same model (minus the "D", they use the same kernel and have the same software version.. so it's really safe to assume they are identical.

I had a similiar experience 2 years ago with my HTC Hero, it was the european version with a different model number but everything else was the same, i put on my brass balls and rooted it and everything worked fine.

Just hoping it's gonna be the same for this one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
ohh... the only reason i'll be cautious about is the example we had with i9000 vs i9000M

they were identical in almost every way, except that some ROMs / internal storage partitions were slightly different, and many people had issues after flashing the international ROMs, however later on as it became clear people making ROM started including the slight difference between the 2 models.

so, i'm keeping my finger crossed for that to NOT be the case this time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kriEv:
Well, rooting the phone shouldn't been an issue imo.

We might be stuck on stock for a little while but at least the phone will be rooted.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
Rooting it shouldn't be that much different though, no? If I remember correctly, it's got the same build number, but the baseband is different. I guess I'm not the only one who's going to go get it first thing Friday :D

Any idea if the low DPI will have a noticeable difference compared to other phones, in terms of picture quality?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
well i was going to get the Tmo version, when it came out 2 weeks ago

but then started reading about all this doomsday reports of this defect, and that defect, etc, etc...

then i though... hmm... i better get it locally, and save myself the trouble of having to ship it back and forth in case i needed exchange ;)

when you ship the phone back and forth, the cost rises up really quickly to a point it might even cost more than buying it locally.

so i bit the bullet and chilled myself down to hold for another week... (3 more days!!!!) to get the phone

LOL :p

i was going crazy waiting for this beast to come out

I've been waiting the SGS2 since June!!!!!!!, but there was no AWS compatible version for Mobilicity and WIND

I feel like it's Christmas in October! :D My Telus store told me that it might have them Friday or Saturday, so Best Buy might get my service, if they have it. :D

I can imagine $600 being shipped back and forth must be a pretty penny!

he's curious about the screen defects.

After a more precise look with the blobs picture, i see tiny vertical lines.. i mean i have to really put my face in the glass to see them.

But using the camera and facing it in a dark setting.. nothing..

Either the image has an issue because my camera doesnt re-create it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaiZ51:
This happens sometimes... For example, I usually leave my phone on airplane mode during the night while I'm sleeping, but when I wake up sometimes I seem to have one more percent than I had before going to bed.

And it also happened just now, I checked my battery about an hour ago which was at 60%, and when I got home it was at 61%.

What gives?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtracrispy:
Are you living under a huge power line? :P

Just joking... but really, low temperatures can decrease battery voltage.

Do you live in an area that's cold outside right now?

I guess Android is starting developing its own consciousness, and found a way to violate thermodynamics laws. You should destroy it before we get dominated by machines!!!! :eek:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaiZ51:
Lol, I was expecting serious answers haha.

But anyways, it's cold outside now, but this also happened when it was hot too. So it has nothing to do with that...

I think I've heard of there being a file on the phone that takes care of the battery stats or something like that... Maybe it needs to be reset? I'm on an unrooted Nexus S so I'll likely have to factory reset for that...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnzhang1:
it is not a big problem, if you want,you can do a calibration to fix it. There's software in market
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v3rk:
i've seen this happen after my phone crashes, usually from tinkering with voltages. but the change is usually rather significant, ~10-20%. very odd
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
It must be that Android's latest update installed a bunch of neutrinos into the core time clock and because of neutrino's faster than light speed your phone itself is experiencing spacetime shift and going back in time.

Does my battery stats file become "misconfigured" or uncalibrated whenever I switch batteries?

I buy extra batteries to use when i'm getting low, and I like to switch them out. All including different mAh's (1000, 1700, 3500).

If so will I lose battery life? I am trying to figure why my battery is running low, had the tiamat kernel and it was beautiful with some issues though, and now i'm running bcblend and my battery is dead after 6 hours.
[HTC EVO 3D] vampirefo:
Switching batteries throws calibration off.

[HTC EVO 3D] noweakness:

So is there any alternative to using multiple batteries and the phone holding the ideal charge?
[HTC EVO 3D] Akasa Fox:
Try a battery calibration app for root users.. The downside is... Well... You have to be rooted. This is just a suggestion but you could also buy a 4000mAh Seidio battery.. Downside is... Your phone will be super thick.

It's your call.
[HTC EVO 3D] noweakness:
Thanks, I have the battery calibration app, but I think I have to fully charge and discharge the phone to get the best results....sign. Ok, just wondering.

I've been highly tempted to get the 4000mAh battery, the extra size doesn't bother me necessarily but I love my case, and I'd have to dish out for the battery, a new case (to hold the larger phone), and then probably get a phone clip in case the phone is uncomfortable in my pocket.

I bought a 3500mAh battery off ebay for like $12, but there is no case for it =/
[HTC Sensation] AndyCr15:
My house mate has an un-rooted HTC Sensation. Recently when going to Gmail on her PC browser she got some kind of message about her account had been accessed from another country and she needed to verify via call or text.

She verified via text and I think changed her password.

Now, Gmail doesn't notify her of new mails, she has to go in and refresh. Also, trying to open Talk means a black screen appears and within a split second it closes, no errors.

I've tried clearing data on all Google apps. I would remove the account and re-add it, but it says I can't as apps are tied to the account.

Any ideas what has happened and how it can be fixed?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 14gautam:
I was going through the xdadevelopers forums when I saw that the process of installing ROMs seems of be device dependent. Can someone please explain me why it is so?

More specifically, shouldn't the process of installing a pure Android ROM (AOSP) be the same on every device since all of them are based on the ARM architecture.

I haven't installed an android ROM before, but I am trying to understand why the process isn't similar to installing a Linux based OS on my computer.

I recently bought an Android tablet (HCL ME X1) to experiment with ROMs but later realized that there aren't ROMs for this device. Can someone let me if I can use the ROMs of any other device for this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stylez:
Because all different models have different hardware so the rom has to be specific to that device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 14gautam:
Thanks for the reply stylez.

So I guess if I want to develop a custom ROM (say an AOSP ROM) I will need the device drivers which my vendor wrote.

Is there any way of identifying the vendor specific drivers of my device? I am using an HCL ME X1.

So i've asked before and gotten good replies but read all of this before you say im a noob cause im not.

I usually update my nightlies every month, however recently i had been running a 90's nightly, so i was behind. Yesterday i decided to update to the latest nightly 117....and notica couple changes i liked. I decided to see if BT audio worked with my car stereo, and to my surprise it worked. Soooo am i late on something here or did i just get lucky? Did they release they info needed to connect BT audio and included it in the latest nightly?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PhantomRampage:
Try searching through the nightlies thread, I don't see why you thought it was a good idea to start a new thread for this.

LG/Nvidia did not release the drivers or anything like that. Instead, Arcee (CM member) figured out a way around it.

Ok, as I have got a little bit time to help you saving time, here are my favorite rooting threads:

1. Chainfire's CF-Root thread => http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399&highlight=CF+Root

Please read Chainfire's first two posts carefully before flashing anything.

If you can find the corresponding CF-Root kernel to your ROM (should be "XX_OXA_KG6"), then this is the easiest flashing method and provides the CWM Manager (including ClockWorkMod recovery with additional features for backup, recovery, flashing zip files, flashing kernels, etc.).

2. Intratech's "Quick Root Guide" in his first post of this thread => http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

This is a little bit more manually but works on every ROM (you only need the stock kernel to get rid of the yellow triangle after flashing).

It is HD, albeit not the greatest video recorder. I've seen a lot of video recorders that are worse. 720P video recording via the X10 is a lot sharper in comparison to 480P recordings. Image quality is definitely improved.

HD doesn't automatically mean super amazing video, there is a lot more that you have to take into consideration. How is the image processed, FPS, bit rates, lighting camera sensors and so forth.

See my comparison below for 720P vs. 480P. Shot with two different X10s, one with the 2.1 update and the other on 1.6 (these were recorded long ago).

Guess I should post here instead of dev section. First question is I made a phone call then walked 3 feet and although I had signal couldnt make a phone call. Next Im trying to search is all of a sudden I cant connect my sd card to my computer. It will charge but thats it. Im reading about mounting not but even mounted it wont connect. Read about usb debugging. Next is when in recovery mode I can go into each sub folder but dont have a back button to do something else. I get an error E:Missing bitmap icon_clockwork (code -1). Is it as simple as an uninstall and re install or just find the icon and put it in the right folder? Next is just funny and a stupid one. I installed 4.2 and tried to upgrade to 4.22. I thought it worked even though it still said 4.2. Thought maybe a bug or something. Well I started from scratch again because of problems and now it shows 4.22. Things have changed and I spent hours trying to search and change things when I found out I couldnt and thats how it was. Still figuring out things. Talk about noob.

Well got the sd card issue resolved. It was a supposed fix I installed that didnt. Re installed everything. Not sure about the signal as before when I first loaded it was great then few hours later it started to suck.When I go into recovery the problem is still there and will have to do some more reading.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spacepirates:
Phone call: no clue, see if you can reproduce the issue elsewhere

SD card: Make sure you are using the cable the phone came with, other usb cables won't work. Then you have to make sure you have USB mass storage turned on.

Recovery: there should be a bottom option that says "go back" or something similar. I'm not sure if there is a dedicated "go back" hardware button.

Icon Error: Not sure, try reflashing the ODIN package for Humble 4.2

4.2 to 4.22: You need to copy over the CWR 4.22 zip, then go into recovery and mount the system file BEFORE you install the zip.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kart38:
It would seem that something got borked in the process of flashing stuff. One thing I've done while flashing ROMs is to always let the phone fully boot into the OS after a flash, Odin or CWM. Also, as spacepirates pointed out, going from 4.2 to 4.22 requires the extra step of mounting the system partition, in CWM, before flashing the upgrade.

Hi,

So basically, if I had a factory cable, could I use it to get the phone to into RSD lite so that I can flash it and hopefully recover from the hard brick.

If that is not the way, is there a way to recover from a hard brick.

Thanks
[Atrix 4G General] turl1:
No, because a factory cable alone won't do anything, you would still need special software and secret keys only Motorola has to fix it. If your phone is hard bricked RSD mode doesn't exist, you can only get to NvFlash mode, and that requires what I explained earlier.

And no, there's no way to fix a hard brick, if you got one exchange it on warranty/insurance or send it to Motorola service or something like that.
