[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ziggyboy:
How do I check which frequency band I'm connected to? I'm pretty sure *#1111# used to show this info in 2.3.3 but since upgrading the 2.3.5 the same code doesn't any more.

As an example my telco uses both 850/2100 Mhz 3G...so my phone will use one of the two depending on availability in my area. I want to find out which band I use at any given time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidphile:

[Nook Color General] liquid64:
Has anyone tried anything with the new "Ultraviolet" movie distribution via the Flixster app? The last update to flixster seems to be blocking the Nook Color from being able to play my movies (although my Galaxy S still works). Before the last update, it worked fine. Looking over the logcat, it just says "not initialized", with no details why. I've temporarily disabled root via the "Temp Root Remover" (it just renames su to mu), and have changed the build.prop's model and manufacturer to reflect samsung's Nexus S, but that didn't seem to help. I am currently running CM7 #232 nightly. Any thoughts?
[Nook Color General] yuntao:
liquid64, the Flixster app uses Android's DRM library (http-//developer.android.com/reference/android/drm/package-summary.html) for streaming of UltraViolet Digital Copy, and the library requires non-rooted devices as a security measure for DRM.

In the upcoming version of the Flixster app (v3.8), support will be added for Nook Color. So if you are dual-booting your device between the original OS and CM7, then you should be able to stream movie in the original OS.

Hope this clarifies your question.
[Nook Color General] liquid64:
Thanks for the reply. As I have mentioned in the original post, I have disabled root on my nook color, and am still unable to play the movie. My Samsung Captivate is rooted as well, and using the steps above to un-root the device, I am able to play the movies on it.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] leodis:
Hello everyone, I would like to use this launcher, based on ADW, but I have a problem with the vertical spacing of icons on the home. It is too big (or too little) and I have to find a way to fix it, but I can not.

Below I put an example of how messy the homepage.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] 3xeno:
Description clearly states -

-Precisely tuned for HDPI and MDPI devices. From hero to nook to galaxy tab.

Surely you must have read it before buying it (I am assuming you didn't pirate it)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] XDeveloperX:
He probably didn't read the description properly. But now a days, everybody pirates.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Scratch0805:
Not everyone mate!!
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] leodis:
Ok guys, you say that is not compatible with wildfire?

The themes that I create with themesfactory for go launcher ex have icons in drawable-hdpi folder, so the icons are not hdpi?

It should therefore be compatible.

The screen of the drawer has no problems!

It is incredible, I did a week of rehearsals and I solved for the case.

The problem was with the lines of the desktop, after I've setted 4 lines everithing is ok. Certainly at the beginning the settings were all wrong ... and I, trial and error, I'd never put 4.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] revan1993:
i like this launcher its very cool =)

[HTC Desire S] kleftisx:
Hello i just brought an HTC Desire S.

Android Version: 2.3.5

and Sence : 3.0

I have read what is root and how to s-off.

But i have a question, if i root it, then i will be able to receive the official updates or not?

And what is the best method of rooting DS with the current version?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
You may still be able to receive updates but I wouldn't recommend it.

I believe that you're either S-ON, no-root and apply updates or S-OFF, root and NO updates!
[HTC Desire S] kleftisx:
Ok. But what is the best method to root my ds??
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Gingerbreak or superoneclick. I prefer Gingerbreak because I found the whole process much quicker
[HTC Desire S] puit:
Im not sure if you are able to use the revolutionary tool to s-off your device, because it currently only supports HTC Desire S (saga) 0.98.0000 and 0.98.0002 hboot versions, but not the 2.00..... (coming with android 2.3.5)

you might wanna check htcdev.com for the unroot
[HTC Desire S] kleftisx:
I searched for those rooting methods and i find that superoneclick is not stable.

and for gingerbreak i didn't find any guide.

Is there any how to root Desire S?

And also i have S-ON and HBOOT-2.00 0002
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
Search and you will find....

You need to go to the htcdev site and perform the hboot lock procedure. Search and you will find the post on how to do it.
[HTC Desire S] moloto:
htcdev method

Hi, sorry to say i have tryied this method from htcdev yesterday and it only unlocks fast boot so you are able to flash a rom via recovery, BUT your phone and hboot will stay in S-ON so you are not able to overvrite hboot version and Radio which is sometimes necessary to support the custom ROM. I doubt if there is a real method to make hboot 2.00.0002 really s-off.. :(
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
You asked about rooting your phone. By unlocking the bootloader you can now flash a custom recovery which will allow you to flash the SU binary and the Superuser app which will give you root. That is what you asked and that is all ou need to do. Gaining S-Off is just another way to get a custom recovery and flash the SU binary and Superuser app.
[HTC Desire S] moloto:
Locked radio

With all the respect, yes you can install custom rom with open hboot and you can gain a root(su) user rights, BUT if your rom is not compatible with your RADIO the you are doomed, your wifi, sd card, and another drivers may not be working, and in this case you are unable to overwrite the radio as the S(ecurity)-ON is locking right this. That was exactly my case, i installed S-ON original hboot from RUU 2.00.0002 and the newest Desire S ROM, but my wifi was not working and my sd was not accesible from pc, i went into recovery a tryied to flash RADIO image, but it was not possible, everytime the recovery was parsing the image and then just went back to bootloader main screen like nothing happend, this is because the RADIO is locked, i have tryied more imeges to be sure the first one was not corrupted, everytime the same result..
[HTC Desire S] kleftisx:
Still didn't find a way to root my DS.

Can anyone provide me a link to do this?
[HTC Desire S] Billlis:
Go to http://www.htcdev.com press unlock bootloader and follow the instructions to s-off your device. (instead of all the files there, you will need only this http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=727371&d=1316684239. Desire S is not at the supported devices, but it works great.)

It says "unlocking the bootloader will delete all personal data from your device including applications, text messages and personalized settings" which means that it will reset all your phone settings I suppose. If anyone has tried this please inform us what we loose and if there is a better way for avoiding that.

@kleftisx p.m.to me in Greek if you didn't understand something!

Thank god, thanks to this i'll order one!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
I don't think there was any doubt of this, but it's nice to have a rough guess of when we'll get it.

There will be custom roms in the meantime but I suspect we'll lose a lot of stylus support.

- Frank
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wonsanim:
Great news:DI just like mine arrive:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] methree:
Pretty sure I read somewhere that ICS has alot of native stylus support. But for S-Pen apps then yeah...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Beards:
Yes, ICS has support for Pressure Sensitive screens.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
I don't understand why everyone thinks the Note will get ICS.

Its just some blog that says so...

They even have edited their post now:

Update : is not official confirmation from Samsung Korea (the only one who can give the full official) but is "a hypothesis" for the next updates. Only Samsung Korea will confirm the roadmap of aggironamenti.

I say, the Note does not get an Official ICS...

Its far more logical that the Note II will get ICS.

NO confirmation, nowhere. Stop fooling yourself.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dragooon123:
Why are you so negative about ICS? Secondly, note is a brand new device. Almost all devices from past 6 months must get an upgrade to ICS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
I am not negative about ICS. I would like ICS.

Its just not likely the Note will get ICS, and NOWHERE Samsung did say the Note will get ICS.

Its just some blog (looking for some extra visitors I guess), hearsay and such, and everyone thinks its going to happen.

Wait for an official Samsung announcement, than talk about "its confirmed".

And why "Almost all devices from past 6 months must get an upgrade to ICS" ??

Wishful thinking maybe?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dragooon123:
Because otherwise it's bad PR. Android devices which are at least six months old have always been updated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
Think about what Samsung needs to do if they put ICS on this Note.

They spend a lot of money on marketing the Note, and its just about to get released...

If they would put ICS on this Note, they either have to revise all the marketing material, or recreate the exact same software on ICS, including launcher etc.

Even the Italian blog mentions second quarter 2012 as a date for a possible Note update to ICS.

By that time the market is also ready for a Note II with ICS 4.5 :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dragooon123:
If they don't update to ICS, Samsung will have a lot of negative media about not supporting there brand new flagship devices. Which will result in a lot more of a loss than the gain. Plus they have to update TW to ICS anyway, they might as well put a bit of more effort and make it work for Note. And ICS can act as an incentive for newer purchases, people always like forward to buy newest Android OS. Galaxy S2 came out and still they are providing updates for Galaxy, why do you think that happens?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
We will see.

But there is no official announcement or confirmation from Samsung that they will update the Note to ICS. Its just a blog, and they already had an "update" in their post, they are not so sure anymore.

So the title of this post is wrong.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] reinbeau:
As I said in another thread, it would be a PR disaster for Samsung to come out with a phone at the same time they issue ICS and not provide an upgrade path.. At thIs point I think you're speculating yourself, and you need to sit and wait like the rest of us and see what happens. My bet is you are very wrong.

Sent from a state of Serendipity
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
I hope I am wrong.

But you agree there is no confirmation to be found, right ?

(And the rest is speculating)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] pub00515:
Google requires all manufacturers to deliver updates for at least 6 months for all new devices.

So ICS should come to the Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
Yes. In this case Gingerbread updates. 2.3.x updates.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Techvir:
i am pretty sure given the way samsung has been working these days.

However i dont have any confirmation.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Deliximus:
actually, Google said 18 months. I am quite certain that ICS will land on any Galaxy S2 and after device. PR disaster. I mean look at the other KOrean maker, LG, they are not exactly doing great.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jeshter2000:
You clearly dont know what the hell you are talking about here!

Google wants that all manufactures update to ICS because of fragmentation. Google will update once a year like Apple!

The Note II maybe not coming at all if this thing does not sell. So they will update this Note to ICS. Every new phone you buy from Sammy will get 18 months of Support So that means ICS will come to the Note!

Mark my words ! Of Course they will not confirm this this quick because of the galaxy Nexus. It will interfear the sales of that phone!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
I surely hope I am wrong, and you know what you are talking about.

But to rely on a vague blogpost, and people "confirming" what they can't know is too much for me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kersh:
I'm pretty confident that samsung will upgrade the note to ICS, but not before 6 or 7 months after the release, so I'll not be expecting the upgrade until May or June
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jeshter2000:
Sorry Gede for my Harsh reaction!

But i am from SamMobile and we asked today Sammy Benelux and they did not confirm it so . But they do not confirm it for Galaxy Nexus you know . With ICS this phone is beating the Nexus S in every aspect in my opinion.

The Note II rely all on the sales of this device if they are not that good this will be a one tiime job!

So based on those facts I will lay a bet that it will get ICS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
No worries jeshter.

And I am happy with the Note as it is.

(and would be happier if they would put a 3500ma battery in the Note 2)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Sebring5:
I do not understand the concern about what Samsung does

We will be using custom rom's that will port ice cream anyway. Why would we care?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] reinbeau:
yes, I agree, at this point it's all speculation.

Sent from a state of Serendipity
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kevincod:
Exactly, I personally think Samsung Italy wasn't allowed yet too release the information so they pulled it back. They prolly announce it after the new nexus is for sale so it won't affect the sales of that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chowdarygm:
You guys are unnecessarily discussing about this. Samsung is not like motorola, they gave 2.3 to galaxy s itself, so u all r talking waste about sonething which is obvious.....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Techvir:
Agree a million times
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] appelflap:
Agree. The question is only when. The galaxy s received its update fairly late. The gal tabs are still running 3.1 (while most tablets are on 3.2 - but this is not a big update). Question is also how easy it is to port all the pen input apps. Nevertheless I'm sure it is quite interesting for Samsung to don't have a obsolete device on the market in a few months. :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] reinbeau:
Sometimes it isn't Samsung, but carrier, who delay things - like the delay of 2.3.4 for the Captivate.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] appelflap:
You're right. Look at the recent Vodafone galaxy tab 10.1v disaster.. still on 3.01 and no touchwiz (while exact same hardware as the 10.1)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chowdarygm:
Good that we have the first note version and without carrier ruling in europe... i am sure we will get the update faster :) so chill guys.. Njy the awesomeness
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anonymous572:
Is there any news about official ICS firmware from samsung? SGS2 will get ICS before the end of december. What about release date for Note?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SrAdama:
Interesting read:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anonymous572:
Yeah, I heard about it. Foolish to hope that Samsung refuses TouchWiz. I'm using LauncherPro and I don't need ICS UI.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
actually, if you read the official news for the SGS2, the carrier Bell has listed the release date for ICS on SGS2 as april 2012. unless theyre referring to a bell-locked model.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Super Chimp:
I was thinking of moving back to the Note from Nexus because of issues such as the ringer volume, battery life, camera quality. But if that's the case I might have second thoughts, I am sure the update is supposed to be before then.
