not true at all. I have scratches all over the protective front and rubber around the sides keep coming off. I guess I could take the phone out of the case and use the camera on the phone. Just thought it would be easier to ask if anyone has any pics.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:
Is there an app I can put on my A100 that allows me to use my USB or HDMI for video in instead of video out? I have a laptop with no screen that I wanna see if I can use this as the screen

ummmmm............ could you repeat that?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] FloatingFatMan:
Sort answer? No

Long answer? It CAN be done after a fashion, but you need to use some remote desktop software on the tablet and remote in to the laptop. If it's not configured to allow that, then you'll need a proper monitor.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] 6stringandy:
LoL thanks dude. I do, however, have yet another crazy idea which I'll post in a new topic shortly.

Is it possible to play mkv through allshare everytime i try it comes up with unsupported file type
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricey1986:
Nobody? Tried searching but cant find anything and really don't want to start converting
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devilzeyez:
i'm having the same problem and i can't find any real answer, sgs2 supports playing mkv's, but when trying to play using allshare it doesn't.

i tried a stupid way which doesn't make any sense just rename the file at the end with .avi

even it's a mkv. it will be played.

but then the rename should be done from the pc or if u have a wifi explorer that can do the trick.

hope this helps

;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevebubs:
If you use Serviio, it should be able to recode it to a suitable container on the fly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
The only way I know how to play mkv's the closest to the way you want is to use Skifta as a Allshare replacement and a different video player. I personally use MX Video Player. Both are better then the stock apps they replace

Is anyone aware of a way to increase the font size in the Clockwork menus? They are so tiny I find them very difficult to read...even with glasses on...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jtcarnes:
Magnifying glass?

In all seriousness, I doubt you can mod the recovery files.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] frostincredible:
If you're up to it...try compiling the recovery from source...I'm pretty sure koush has it somewhere on github..that's how there's "unofficial" CWM recoveries for devices he doesn't support..
[Motorola Photon 4G] Harry_Spade:
Ok i thought i had this solved by flashing the newest sbf but nope. Here is the list, almost every morning i wake up these things are not workin on the phone:

Ringer sound ( phone is not in silent mode and volume is up all the way but no sound)

Notification sounds ( same as ringer, and when i try to change the sounds, when i am selecting from the options, none of the new sounds work either)

Camera ( force crashes)

Cam corder ( only able to shoot in vga mode, when i go to setting, the options for hd recording and widescreen photos are simply gone)

Mp3 do not work, phone says ir does not recognize the format

Vidoes dont playback, phone says it does not recognize the format

Alarm is silent, only vibrates

I can make calls, now a restart fixes this, but its simply annoying especially when my alarm rings and it silent
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kevets:
That would be annoying. Have you backtracked through installed apps to get an idea what may have happened or caused it? Flashing over existing problems won't do much.

Personally I'd just hard reset and be done with it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
How do you do a hard reset? Is it the same a factory reset?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Harry_Spade:
Ya thru android recovery or settings, and should data on internal sd be deleted?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kevets:
Settings - Privacy - Factory Data Reset

Try without wiping the card first; a simple reset should fix any runaway apps. If that doesn't work, wipe the card. You have nothing to lose at that point.

Make sure you back up anything important to you that might be stored on there though.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Harry_Spade:
but isnt flashing a full sbf thru RSD lite the same thing? thats what i did before
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
I also thought the SBF wiped everything off the internal SD card? But I could be wrong.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MultiDev:
It does not. It simply compares and overwrites as needed. I update via SBF and haven't lost my apps or media files. I do lose my system settings.

If you want, you can manually wipe the /data and /system partition and the SBF will restore everything.

I hated steve jobs but that's actually pretty funny.
[Off-topic] dhkr234:
That's no big deal. If some idiot wants to keep paying taxes on a new car every 6 months, that's more money for the local government than the price of the tags. Remember that the taxes on the whole vehicle are paid at the time of the vehicle's actual sale, which means right before the vehicle is driven off the lot.

Remember that California has a sales tax rate of 7.75%, so every 6 months, they get to charge $10230.00 in sales tax. When the vehicle gets flipped 6 months later, they get to nail it for sales tax a second time.

Basically, this idiot was paying more than $20000 per year just to drive without plates. The average price of a new car in the US is under $30000, also known as 18 months of driving without plates for stupidface.

Sorry, but this MORON didn't find any loophole. He found a hole to shove money into by the wheelbarrow.
[Off-topic] Archer:
Yeah - absolutely right, unless he leased it, which is says in the article he did.
[Off-topic] xaccers:
I don't get the logic behind allowing 6 months to get plates.

Yes, he leased a "new" (identical) car every 6 month.
[Off-topic] xaccers:
MK's grid system makes an excellent rally course (as seen on Road Wars)

I wonder if sales tax is applicable to leases, or company purchases?

As for jokes: People from MK are so 'ard, even their cows are made of concrete!

Didn't say it had to be a good joke...
[Off-topic] Archer:
Hahaha - that's actually good. And in all seriousness, I really do like the grid thing. 1st time I went to Milton Keynes I had a letter and a number and a street name and found the place straight away. I really does make things very easy.

Milton Keynes road system FTW!
[Off-topic] xaccers:
It works great as long as you ignore that some of the H roads go vertical and some of the V go horizontal.

The main utilities are buried in the banks either side of the roads so traffic doesn't have to be delayed by roadworks.

The grid wasn't the first design though. Originally the plan was a 4 leaf clover layout, with a monorail around the border. How cool would that have been?

No home was to be more than a 5 minute walk from a bus stop, and 15 minutes from a monorail stop.

Way too expensive though so they dropped it.

They did, back in the 50s/60s foresee a time when homes would have more than one car which is pretty foward thinking for the time.

Although they forgot about the need for a hospital or firestation!

New home owners were given a voucher to buy and plant a tree, resulting in hundreds of trees needing to be ripped up 20-30 years later due to growing too close to roads/buildings etc.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Iskor12:
I have ran into some issues with Serendipity 8.1 and I have just about read the entire developers thread for it. I know that there are others that are having the same issue, but because I am new and don't have enough posts to post in the developers forum, I must post my issues here instead.

First issue.

MMS doesn't work. I have tried many work a rounds to fix this, but none have worked for me. Any advice or help on this subject matter is greatly appreciated.

Second issue.

Data Reconnect from being in airplane mode doesn't work. I haven't tried any fixes for this because I don't know where to begin. Any advice or help on this subject matter is also greatly appreciated.

Outside of those two issues, Serendipity 8.1 is a great ROM that significantly improved my battery life.

Until I can fix it, I will be using UnNamed 1.0.4

Thanks,

Iskor12
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
Flashing GTG's "UnNamed v1.04" custom rom is a very good choice,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Iskor12:
I am currently using UnNamed 1.0.4 while I wait for Serendipity to be fixed. I got better battery life with Serendipity...but that might be because a few things didn't work right. Who knows.
[HTC Sensation] leonardzzzz:
I want install another ROM like HyperSensation-CM7.1-v0.6 , am i need a superwipe before installing it?

I'm just confused because i always wipe it manually with cwm, what's the different? somebody said using superwipe can make phone bricked :mad:

and can you tell me from who the best superwipe script i can get ?
[HTC Sensation] jslim38:
Useing super wipe will knot Bricke your phone however you should backup your ROM before you do a wipe after backing up your ROM do a wipe useing clockwork mod and wipe you're delvek and wipe battery stats and then super wipe when super wipe is finished go to the down load folder in clockwork mod that is and install the ROM you have down loaded and your set

sent from xda core droid sensation 4g
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
Superwipe is only necessary when flashing roms with different builds. Buy not necessary if flashing an upgrade over an existing ROM. I.e. (1.1-1.2) or what have you

You can grab a great superwipe from the revolution link in my signature. But as always suggested... nand back up before flashing ANYTHING.

Good luck boss
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
what makes superwipe necessary when flashing between different builds?
[HTC Sensation] leonardzzzz:
thanks for the answer :D

i will try with superwipe from ARHD lol
[HTC Sensation] jetblack74:
I've tested several different roms and used superwipe between them. Never had a problem
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
Basically the build is the base of the ROM. When you flash an update the base is the same so removing it to add the same one back isn't necessary.

However

flashing a ROM with a different build is using a different base to build the structure. Which requires a superwipe to get rid of the residual bits and pieces of the old ROM.

Think of it as you using a one glass to drink milk, chocolate milk and orange.juice out of...

You would start with milk, drink it. Would you then pour orange juice without rinsing your cup out? No but you would pour chocolate milk without rinsing first.

Then you would rinse and pour orange juice.

Same concept.

Rinse=superwipe
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
Sounds like snake oil to me. I've never done a superwipe and never needed to. If I'm switching ROMs or flashing an update that requires a full wipe I do the normal set of wipes in recovery plus I format the system partition. Always worked fine for me.
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
And that's all you every need to do. Superwipe is just a one click solution. If you format system (not factory reset) you just did the same thing more or less. Some scripts mess with other partitions but that, under most circumstances, is totally unnecessary.
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
Also, its been my observation that the flash scripts of the good roms will format the system if the release was not intended as an incremental update.
[HTC Sensation] sattapaal:
So: SuperWipe is a one click solution for Wiping

So in other words if you do a manual wipe, like the old style wiping, its the same thing, just a little more techy.

Great! *stick to old style*

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tigerz0202:
First off coming from Nothing but HTC phones before and most recently the sensation the bar for me was high. i used to hate samsung phones with a passion and honestly didnt see myself getting this phone when it was said to be coming from T-mobile....that was until i played wth a demo in the store before launch and was amazed at just how smoothly it operated. no force closes or messages like "htc sense has stopped working " etc.etc, if youve had a htc phone with sense then you knbow what im talking about, as long as they keep moving forward with the galaxy line i dont thimk ill ever own another type of phone, Nexus looks great but no micro-sd slot is the deal breaker and im sure the next galaxy phone will have all the upgrades next year or whenever it comes out beause theres always a next one any how, heres my lists of good and bad

Good

1.Very Snappy -better than any phone ive ever had

2.Tons of memory -sd and built in

3.Camera-although not as good as my sensation, still takes great pics

4. Bigger screen-always a plus

5.Data speeds are incredible,fastest ive ever seen on a phone to date

6. Great design -phone looks great love the curved edges

7.Email support works great for me

8.GPS is very good -locks fast and more accurate than my sensation was

9.FFC is great also - forgot to add this earlier

Bad

1.No wifi calling -but it will get updated ,until then its on the bad list

2.no built in FM Tuner

3.Screen not as bright as i thought,especially whites look tinted

4.could use a few more widgets (music,better weather widget)

The bads are not that bad and i can live with them. My mother -in -law has an epic 4g slide and the whites on hers are definately brighter on her phone, dont know if that can be fixed through an update but that is the only thing that really bothers me about the phone .other than that i love the phone and completely happy with the purchase. i wont root it until we get wi-fi calling just because i wanna see if they update anything else on the phone before i start messing with it - thats my 2 cents
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
just a note on the brightness, the default auto brightness is actually too low

you can set it manually

originally when the Galaxy S came out too many people complained the brightness was waaaayyy toooooo high "they are blinding my eyes, blah blah blah... and surprisingly enough Samsung actually listened to them :rolleyes: of all things :confused:

and since then all firmwares now defaults to like 10% brightness only :mad:

i actually liked how it was originally, the default brightness for auto was more in the 30% area where everything was crispy crisp.

so now i always manually adjust it since then
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tigerz0202:
Yeah i noticed it came set low, im one of those guys that likes a bright screen ...the brighter the better in my eyes, i leave the brightness cranked all the way up and it still seems to me it should be better or i should say i thought it would be better ,but its not a deal breaker and i dont feel the need to go hide in a cave and turn the brightness all the way down and look for lines and blobs (although im sure i dont have that problem).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bighulk666:
I absolutely agree. Auto-bright is way too low/dim for me. I have to adjust it manually, and in doing so the screen looks so much better, sharper, and crisper.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] barondebxl:
My review coming from the HTC sensation 4g

Good: Snappy, overall very good performance and responsiveness,unlocked bootloader, LIGHTNING FAST web browsing (puts my sensation to shame), nice design, very light for its size, 16gig on board memory expandable with micro card, good battery life, good call quality and of course super AMOLED plus display is gorgeous.

Bad: screen resolution ( definitely not a deal breaker) but could be better, although very good performance it's not as snappy as the exynos powered Galaxy s 2 according to everybody ( never played with an exynos one), GPU not properly optimize ( there shouldnt be any lag with games like dragon fly on this phone), overglow( you know when you hit the top or the bottom of a page and you see that blue glow, wish it was that bounce found in the other galaxy s 2) and finally the FU**ING BLOATWARE!!!!!!!!! PHUUUUCCCCKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!! Overall great phone!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sn0warmy:
I came from an HTC Sensation 4G as well. After getting 3 replacement Sensations at the T-Mobile store due to manufacture defects they finally gave me the option to upgrade to the Galaxy S II for an additional $20.

I am so happy I went with the upgrade. The build quality is MUCH more solid and screen quality is a night and day difference on the SGS II compared to the Sensation. I thought the bigger phone size might bother me but I've actually realized I prefer it due to the larger screen.

The resolution is taking some getting used to but as someone else mentioned, it's not a deal breaker. And I've heard that there are apps available for rooted users allowing you to adjust the resolution to make it larger. I tried Pixel Density Changer, with no luck though.

For those complaining about bloatware, I recommend rooting (which is 10x easier on the SGS II than it was on the Sensation) and installing the EaglesBlood ROM. It removes pretty much all the bloatware and gets it back to stock Gingerbread form.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cheema:
I do not think it is a brightness issue. It is contrast issue. It cannot be fixed by cranking up the brightness. However adjusting the brightness does make it a little more bearable.

This is all related to the screen issue we have all been talking about. I did some more research into this topic today and have some evidence to show. Coming up in a new post...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tigerz0202:
Can contrast be fixed through a software update or is that hardware related
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cheema:
I do not know the answer to that. My guess is that it can fixed through software update. But that really is just a wild guess.

Anyway, I updated my post on this topic with some details testing:

EVERY linux based download has a MD5SUM. Which verifies the download isn't corrupt.

What you need to do is download the ROM to the SDcard's root directory. Then from either the ADB command prompt or Terminal Emulator type

# md5sum /mnt/sdcard/<rom_name>.zip

that will kick out a code and then verify that against the source you downloaded it from.

I followed some other users' suggestions and reflashed at 100% battery life, allowed the battery to discharge all the way until the phone died, then charged all the way to 100% again without taking it off the charger. I just got 25 hours with moderate usage and about 4 hours of screen-on time.
