[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pguillory08:
Lol and yet here is another one who follows in footsteps of true specation. Do you really this.k I'd take the time to really make up the fact that they aren't selling the phones anymore here? If you haven't noticed, at&t's pride is much more on the LTE market rather than the a rial phone. But okay, you're right. I told you guys abput the skyrocket being a wack snapdragon, and ill tell you.again.about this.

All I wanted to do by getting.on.this forum is to become an android fan even more, and help inform you guys a bit more. But maybe.I was wrong and you all know things I.don't eh?

So much for the xda "noob" video explaining how rudeness and all that other junk.ain't allowed.

How bout this, stick.to my posts, and I guarantee that I will provide you.all with every at&t phone.spec for the new future there is. Lol

Honestly.

All I wanna say is, don't doubt, or actually, don't denounce my intelligence until I have provided you all with false information.

Thanks. :)

** and for the Guy up there, there's no FM RADIO-STOCK.

like I said, STOCK, there is no radio.

Just wanna be clear and correct for the make-believers. ;)

They don't sell the OG S2 in California corporate stores, but I don't know if the Skyrocket is the reason.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pguillory08:
No its not. Corporate stores will only order them for you. But starting this wknd even that is going to be to an end. :/

It already sucked that they never sold em in stores. Well, corporate stores. Lol.

I've learned to be very clear around here. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yahoowizard:
Maybe they're just taking their original SGS2's and replacing them with their new LTE chip, so that way, they're not necessarily restocking or anything...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] HTC Chris:
I'd like to see this documentation. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Blaze9:
Dude, you haven't given proof of -anything- you've said over the past day or two. Nothing. No pictures of the new phone, no docs suggesting they're even thinking of completely removing the i777 from the market. How the hell can you even think that they would completely remove one of the -best- phones on the market?

As far as I, and many others can tell, you're just speculating on what will happen. There is no way you can know these things if you're a normal ATT employee. If every normal level employee knew this, there would have been massive leaks of this info as soon as they found out. And I -highly- doubt you're some top-level employee by the way you write and the way you're addressing everyone else.

There isn't even any documentation that you even work for ATT, I even find that hard to believe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Blind_Guardian:
I can confirm this as well. My rep told me the same thing, the SGS2 is selling very well for AT&T and there are no plans to stop selling it.

I'd love to see this proof you speak of.

Yes, I do. Judging from your overly emotional response to posts that question the validity of your claims.

What does pride have to do with it? They will market LTE heavily in the areas that have, but they will not discontinue a phone that sells well to force people onto LTE. The store reps will BS the consumer into thinking the LTE phone is the greatest thing in the world.

Um... When did you tell us about the skyrocket being a "wack" snapdragon? Everyone correct me if I am wrong, but didn't information from sites/press release and the fact that the phone is out in Korea indicate the specs? Also let us not forget the fact that qualcomm will not or doesn't have to capability built in to offer an LTE solution that doesn't use their chips.

I'm rooted, have Amon Ra recovery installed, but every time I change to another rom my wallpaper from the previous rom is still there. I wipe everything twice, data, factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, boot, system, sdext, run Superwipe.zip and Gruesomewipeall.zip and its there every time. Does this happen to everyone or is it not wiping correctly? Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marcop13:

Actually on second thought I guess I have had a couple problems in the past, its not happening now though but on Roms like going green or rainy day, I couldn't receive messages or call sometimes, don't know if that has anything to do with wiping though.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] grifter024:
I was wondering something.

I had a HD7 from TMO and found a app on the marketplace that allowed me to see HD youtube videos to either stream or download.

I was wondering if I put WM7 on my HD2 would I be able to use that same app I found on the HD7 marketplace and stream/download HD youtube videos?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] Rosetti:
I think you are talking about Supertube.
[HD7 General] circleofomega:
The debate is raging and is splitting the community in 2...

So I thought lets have a poll.

Let's be honest, even with a single core, WP7 devices DON'T lag. But just because having multi-core becoming a fashion statement, do WE need it?
[HD7 General] Dr.8820:
Only spec whores care about dual core and overclocking...I've had this since December 2010, I don't get lags..WP doesn't need it...yet.

Sent from The Syndicate using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
i believe, in fact, that is a consumer gimmick.

consumers are 'bred' to think, "the bigger, the better."

and a dual-core is better than a single-core.

just isn't necessary for WP7 like it is with the fragmented Android.

so, yeah, it is all about the specs.
[HD7 General] circleofomega:
I agree...the fact about dual core processors is this - a dual core processor is just half the job done. You applications need to RECOGNIZE the other damn processor and make use of it. (1 example is the Safari for iPhone 4S that recognizes the dual core chipset and makes optimum use of it.)
[HD7 General] tfn:
Windows phone don't need dual core to run apps casue thats how its built.

Microsoft is very good with support for old hardware like you can run windows 7 on an old pentium 4 pc which is good that unlike android almost all windows phones will get newer updates as they are rolled out.

Also remember Nokia is aiming for the budget phone customers as It admitted long ago that the Higher end phone market has too much competition for it while the lower end is still a strong point for nokia, hence their partnership with MS makes sense.

And keeping costs low will help both Nokia and MS to crack the phone market a bit more
[HD7 General] Irrdial:
Please remember the famous Bill Gates quote...

"who would ever need more than 256kb of RAM?" ( not a direct quote, blame my memory )

The OS in the current state doesn't need that obviously, it works flawlessly. But dual-core gives us space for improvement - both in the OS and apps. So...it's not necessary, but i wouldn't go as far as to say it's not needed.

But still, we don't need to put dual-core chips in every Windows Phone. A wide range of prices, equipment etc. is definitely a perk.
[HD7 General] DoogieDC:
What's to debate?

Do current Windows phones have multiple cores? No.

Do they work? Yes.

Case closed. On to the next thread...
[HD7 General] systoxity:
My answer, Why not!? If it can be done without negatively affecting functionality, the technology should push forward leading to more opportunities for developers.
[HD7 General] kdskamal:
No. Case is not closed. Right now, even Mango phones do not support dual core processors. That is the main reason why HTC is still using single core processor in its flagship windows phone (Titan / Ultimate).

Multi core support will come with Apollo update.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbogs:
Let me start by saying I'm new to posting on these forums. I've been flashing roms now for over 7 months and have enjoyed it immensely.

The other day I ran into a problem that I've never had before. I was running Nil's 3.5 rom which is a great rom, and installed the V6 Supercharger Script (also great) to see how it would work with the rom. I installed everything, had V6 working and was prompted by V6 to change I believe it was /data and /cache files. I thought ok there shouldn't be a problem. So I ran V6 and everything seemed to run with no problems. Then things got a bit laggy so I decided lets try and uninstall V6 and see if that helps. V6 restored my settings that were backed up, and I uninstalled V6. I decided at this point to do a complete wipe and reflash the rom. This is when I encountered my problem.

I reboot the phone into recovery mode: (Using the lastest clockworkmod recovery)

wipe data factory reset

wipe cache partition

I go under mounts and storage, format

/boot

/system

/datadata

/data

/cache

I get an error stating "error formatting /data" and "error formatting /cache".

I am unable to restore any backups that I had already made because I receive this error message. When I install a new rom, I receive bootloops. The only rom that works, is Nils 3.5 rom that is still stuck on the phone, and when that loads, nothing works properly. I cannot download apps, the apps already installed force close on me.

I have no clue on what to do. Now I am asking myself, did I brick my phone? Any help, suggestions would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks

Update:

I decided to try downgrading to the official 2.2 stock version with S-On with hopes of trying to start from scratch and now I am stuck in bootloops. The phone goes to the red eye, pauses for about 20 seconds and reboots. Any suggestions on what to do now?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hooya:
Just had this issue on my wife's phone. System random rebooted after an app update and now /cache and /data won't format. Nothing posts past the white Incredible screen.

Came up with some solutions that I have yet to try, but here's what I found:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/32272-error-formatting-data-when-restoring/

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/6433-solved-messed-up-partitions-on-internal-storage/page__st__20

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18288-error-formating-cache-wont-boot-past-htc-screen/

Looks like basically we need to force fix the file system and push something initial onto the phone though adb.

I'll keep this tab open and post my results as I try some fixes tonight on my wife's phone.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evil_elf:
Bad news for you guys. I had this happen a month ago and could not fix it. Someone over at the CM forums helped me try and fix the partitions in the internal memory, but we both think the hardware was the culprit. I was under warranty still and got a replacement phone.

That is the thread I'm following. So far I've had moderate success with the commands posted here:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...hen-restoring/page__view__findpost__p__250529

that are designed to totally re-create the partitions. Attempting to format at the moment from the phone recovery with no connection to the computer. I'm hoping this isn't all hardware related.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragon droid:
If I'm not mistaken nils roms format the phone to a different type ext. You may want to find a way to reformat the phone to the stock ext. I may be completely wrong on this but since you currently have a brick it might be worth looking into.

Hey guys newb here, Ive recently bought the HTC Inc S on the australian optus network, the thing is it came with so much crap that I dont even need,

I wanted to flash CM7.1 onto my phone but Im unable to get S-OFF due to my HBOOT being 1.16 and theres no support for it on the rev website, so is there any way for me to either get rid of all this bloatware that came with my phone or am i able to re-flash android 2.3.3 or a newer version of android available for the htc inc s that comes without all that bloatware.

This is my first HTC phone and kinda already regretting getting it, its a great phone just wish i got one with a earlier hboot version :(
[HTC Incredible S] katu2006:
I'm in the exact same situation, but still hesitating to go through the HTC Dev unlocking process, that apparently worked for a few guys:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1301475&page=4

Also, the Optus Stock Rom works very well, no bugs or issues...The whole bloatware is very annoying, but I learned to live with it. :)

The thing is, you never know what type of issues you get by flashing a custom Rom... So that's another down side. :(
[HTC Incredible S] oz_tech:
I'm not wanting to flash a custom Rom just want to flash Android 2.3.5 or 2.3.7 with out all the bloatware I thought it would be possible considering its not a custom rom is this possible? Also what's the difference between froyo, gingerbread and honeycombe I always see that popping up in the forums
[HTC Incredible S] katu2006:
Well, there are no "Clean" Roms out there...Except some Custom Roms like CM7, all stock Roms have some degree of bloatware.

Eclair is Android 2.1

Froyo is Android 2.2

Gingerbread is Android 2.3

Honeycomb is Android 3.0 (this version is designed for Tablets only)

Ice Cream Sandwich will be Android 4.0 (to be released on mid November this year and will be the first unified Android platform - both for phones and tablets)
[HTC Incredible S] oz_tech:
Oh ok cheers thankyou, is there a link for a gingerbread download 2.3.7? Just want a fresh flash with less bloatware

try miui roms based on 2.3.7 here
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
As long as you can get root access even if temporary you can uninstall bloatware via titanium backup.
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
yes i assume you have s-on ...so try superoneclick for a temp root (which will get unrooted once u restart the device) and remove the bloatwares from titanium backup.
[HTC Incredible S] zinwei:
HI, if you really want to flash CM7 to your phone and you have HBOOT 1.16 out there, I suggest you to downgrade your HBOOT to 1.13 by using goldcard, which I did to my phone incredible S and work out successfully. then you can do the S-OFF by AlphaRev, after that get your phone rooted which I think you can find in other thread as well if u successfully downgrade HBOOT to 1.13..

I got the source from a chinese forum (downgrade to HBOOT 1.13) so I think there is a guide for that in english as well but i didn't search for it..

hope this help..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vzontini:
As I've posted a few times in this forum I think Google excluded the SDcard on purpose due to issues with the use of an SDcard with Android 3.0 and higher. I've seen this first hand with my Xoom tablet.

Here is a recent post by a developer on the Motorola Xoom forum on the details.

https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/493078#493078
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
They didn't have SDcard expansion on the Nexus S either....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _illmatic_:
The Nexus S also didn't have an SD card slot. Would that be the same reasoning behind that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
That could've just been a way to show off the new support for devices without sdcards that was a new feature in Gingerbread though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Wait, what? The Motorola Xoom shouldn't have an internal SD Card. With Honeycomb, the internal storage of a device is only partitioned into boot, recovery, system, data, and cache. There is no FAT-formatted partition on the internal storage that is mounted as a fake "SD Card" partition, because starting with Honeycomb when a device is connected to a computer file transfer is accomplished using MTP with the help of a FUSE daemon. So since there is nothing mounted at /mnt/sdcard if all you have is internal storage, then if you plug in a real SD card it should just mount at /mnt/sdcard and apps should be able to access it just fine using the old API and permissions used to access SD cards that have been in Android for generations.

Basically the problem he described boils down to Android's inability to deal with apps reading and writing to multiple external partitions. The API only deals with one external storage partition (http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#filesExternal) so if you have a device with the internal storage partitioned like, for example, the Nexus S, where a large chunk of the internal storage is in a FAT-formatted partition mounted as if it were an SD card, and if this device also has a slot for a real SD card, then apps can't request permissions to read and write to the real SD card because the API only lets you deal with the fake internal SD card.

But this shouldn't have anything to do with devices like the Xoom and Galaxy Nexus, where there's only one internal storage device and on that device there is no FAT partition mounted like a virtual SD card, so any real SD cards you plug into the device should just mount as regular old SD cards that Android has always worked with.

EDIT: It just occurred to me that on devices like the Xoom and Galaxy Nexus, probably a directory on the /data partition is mounted at /mnt/sdcard so that poorly programmed apps that hardcode that directory to use for external storage will still work. Unfortunately this means that the API for accessing external storage will only be able to return file objects pointing to this portion of the internal storage and won't be able to make use of a real SD card. Until the Android API is enhanced to let apps read and write to multiple "external" storage partitions, this is indeed an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
I believe ICS will have full support for sd card slot.

Why?

There are lots of devices that can be upgraded to ICS, and it has sd card slot.

Otherwise, people will be mad if they upgraded to ICS, then the sd card slot becomes read only :-*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
It won't be read-only. They fixed that in Honeycomb already. However, apps still won't be able to read and write to it using normal file IO operations. They'll have to use the MediaStore APIs. Assuming nothing has changed from how it works in Honeycomb right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chrono_Tata:
Personally I think we are giving Google/Samsung too much benefit of the doubt here. They are not putting in an SD card slot for the same simple reason that Apple doesn't have expandable memory on their devices; so that they can charge us more for higher capacity models. If they actually had a good reason for it then they would have explained it officially a long time ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] syntrix:
The other reason is that they can control the speed of the storage. How many class 2 sd card disasters are out there where the person didn't know it was a slow card and wouldn't work with video recording, or even slow the experience down?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwer23:
I have an asus eee pad transformer and it has had full sdcard support (read and write access for all apps I installed) since its release with honeycomb 3.0 and it still has now on hc 3.2. Xoom was just crappy in this case. So this cannot be the reason for no sdcard on GN. But as some said before, the Nexus S also didn't have a sdcard.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbroon:
Docked the transformer actually handles 2 SD cards and can also handle additional USB drives just fine. They get mounted to /removable/MicroSD and /removable/SD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Then why did Samsung put an SDcard slot in the SGSII models? And they're surely going to sell millions more SGSII's than Galaxy Nexus'. If they wanted to make money they should've taken SDcard slots out of the SGSII.

I think they did internal storage only on purpose, but not to make money... my guess is its for speed and chassis space reasons.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwer23:
That's right, I own the dock also. But even without the dock, SD card worked perfectly from day one. Additionally I think that ASUS offer the freakin' best support in terms of fast Android&firmware updates and (useful) pre-installed apps (like Polaris Office, Supernote, Splashtop Remote, MyLibrary, a nice File Manager, ...) of any manufacturer I know. But that's off-topic now ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alicious:
Bingo. This to me sums it all up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slimslim:
True, iPhone 16gb - $199, 32gb - $299. Not bad, 16gb extra for $100. I'm not sure it will work the same way with a Google phone. It's the exclusivity, you want an iOS device then you'll have to buy Apple's, with Google you have many other options and manufacturers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lakristrolle:
Well, Samsung did it with the Galaxy Tab 10.1, it has no SD slot and on introduction the 32gb version was $100 extra.

Which is rather rich considering that a high quality 16gb microSD card can be had for $25. As an extra insult the internal memory in todays devices is almost always eMMC, which is more or less an SD card made to be soldered down, it has no better performance or features than a normal SD card. So it's a $75 markup straight into the manufacturers pocket.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lorddart:
If this was the case... Where the hell are all the 32g nexus s devices at???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
i'll probably wait for the 64GB version before i get my hands on one ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noCOMPLY:
No SDcard support and a max internal storage of 16GB is a great way to get people to use Google Music...
