[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
How it works

Here's the details of how this package works.

1) This package replaces the modem with a known good I777 modem

2) It also replaces the kernel with an I777 kernel (Right now, Daily Driver 11/03 release) - This is half of the keymap fix. Also, DD 11/3 contains a fix that allows wifi tethering to work on both I777-derived ROMs and I9100-derived ROMs

3) It replaces two of the keymap files in /system/usr/keylayout/ - see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1313050&page=56 for details - thanks to MikeyMike01 and Dungeon47 for this one

4) It replaces most of the audio library files to fix the issue with outgoing mic audio in calls - this is the same fix used by Cyanogenmod 7 - see https://github.com/koush/proprietar...12f711197665edeb28522386a77a62da24bab#diff-28 for details, thank atinm for this one

Attached:

Hacked settings APK for VillainROM 3.0 - This, along with Alpha 0.2.1, should allow you to turn on NFC. May work on other XXKI3-based ROMs

For ROM Authors:

To get NFC to show in Settings, baksmali the Settings APK and open WirelessSettings.smali

Look for the line below:

invoke-static {p0}, Landroid/nfc/NfcAdapter;->getDefaultAdapter(Landroid/content/Context;)Landroid/nfc/NfcAdapter;

Delete the next two instances of lines that contain the word removePreference

NFC should then show in Wireless settings

What about Roms that have a different version of cwm recovery, for ex some of them have 4.x cmwr. Does your kernal that you including relash cwr 5.x?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
CWM is in the kernel, and this replaces the kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jgrimberg1979:
Awesome, what would be some of the reason why this would not work with some roms, since the package addresses most of the differences between the two phones? Is there something we should look for besides bootloader, that may stick out as a possible incompatibility?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Unsure yet - most likely any remaining issues will be common.

The one thing might be if the ROM has a special unusual kernel dependency. I'm not too far from Ninphetamine, but there might be some wacky kernels out there that have wacky ROMs paired with them. Such ROMs would even have problems with other I9100 kernels on the I9100.

I don't expect anything to be blatantly obvious at this point... My biggest worry is that I botched the permissions in the updater script. :)

My Sdhc card randomly unmounts and goes read only. tried to re format it but to no luck. and now when i try to charge the battery the phone goes right to the bootloader screen.

if i did a factory reset through the bootloader would this work.

and yes i am rooted s-off.

any fix would help even if it unrooted me.
[Off-topic] NissanNick:
Hey guys I have been considering going from sprint to tmobile. The reason is my sprint bill is 99+28= 127 a month (unlimited) and tmobile has a 70+28 (I will assume the fees are the same) unlimited (5gb data before throttle). So my bill would go from 1524 a year to 1176. even if i buy a new phone for 500 cash it still cheaper (over 2 years) then sprint.

so after looking at phones, the pay as you go phones are all ****. So I was looking at the contract phones and the amaze caught my eye. So my question is if i buy a "unlocked amaze" will it work with a tmobile monthly/pay as you go plan? Will the data and everything work?
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
As long as it has the 1700/2100 AWS frequencies, it should work. That being said, I believe there are two versions, the TMOUS and, the Telus version. What I'm not sure of is, the bands on the Telus version. If you bought a TMOUS version, it, wouldn't need to be unlocked, just bought off contract.

Pipsqueak approved this message
[Off-topic] I_am_Error:
Typically though the telus version would be more expensive in the US. Plus I think (Don't quote me on this) the Telus version is at&t bands.

[Off-topic] NissanNick:
So you mean there are two versions of phones? Also i am pretty sure i understand the phone will work for voice calls, but what about data? I am reading that you may have to have them activate it or something? I am really new to this sim card stuff.
[Off-topic] I_am_Error:
If you buy a T-Mobile Amaze (Yes more than one version exists) then you should have no problem using a T-Mobile Sim in it. Now that is to say, if the Sim card already has service on it then you can use it in any T-Mobile or Sim unlocked phone.

cool, I would be buying a new no contact monthly plan. From my understating its just the sim card. Then i will buy the amaze!

I tried something recently which I didn't do before...and my phone's performance is amazing, I must share it....

I copied all of my SD card's contents to a folder on my PC for backup.

Formatted the SD.

Installed the new custome ROM.

Put ONLY essential things back on the rom e.g. pictures, music.

With a clean SD, the performance is amazing...picture loading etc. is instant like the original ROM.

Never Forget!!! :):):)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cletus8:
Hey!

So, i can buy an used At&t Atrix to replace my Droid2, at a VERY cheap price.

My question is simple: Is it worth it?

And, about the roms... I have seen that Atrix Development is not as advanced as the development on Droid2, where we have Cm7 and MIUI.

Is there any reason to this? Because the Bootloader of Atrix can be unlocked, so development should be easier... Or there is something that im missing?

Thanks in advance!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marko!:
Development is moving on the atrix CM7 is well into beta but is very stable and works wonderfuly, there is also an increasing list of other roms available

the atrix is a beast of a phone and is definitally worth the upgrade

that being said there will probably be many phones released in the near future that are just as good if not better than the

personallhy i have no complaints

Im going to stick it out on the atrix, I like the form factor, screen size and res,, not to mention its a beast of a phone once you get the fine tuning done,, currently have a 32 gb card, with a seidio 3200 Mah ext battery, and seidio holster,, and oc'd at 1.3g.....

Im back and forth between cm7 and alien.. either one rocks,, I say go for it, but as with anything its all bout what you like,, etc..

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Davenurse:
I was trying to update my phone with a lost kernal via odin and something went wrong. When I got done it said firmware update failed and to redo via Kies. Tried that and the program would not recognize the phone. Finally got back to stock after much fiddling around and I have no signal and my phone is locked in airplane mode and it wont come out. I read a thread about clearing cache and restarting but that did not solve the problem. The one thing I did notice is in about phone in baseband and hardware reads "unknown". I dont want to take it to Sprint because my Odin counter reads 27 and I dont have a jig to reset, any help would be highly appreciated
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
if your baseband reads unknown you flashed using the phone box and overwrote your modem driver.

easy enough to fix however we don't have aan eg30 modem driver

so your stuck with eg12 for a bit.

still works though check out

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] wisefreakz:
I finally decide to have a partion on my 8GB SD other than FAT32. So i used the FuFu Minimod to split my SD. First to Ext2 then to Ext3 and then to Ext4.

It all went fine. I have moved some basic apps like Facebook and Igo to the Ext4 partion.

The weird thing that drove me to create this thread is the fact that my phone became a bit slow... unresponsive... and just because the Ext4 with basic apps on it?

Did i miss something or this is normal?

Appreciate all feedbacks.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] fabricaque:
Well then, manually move the app to the sdcard, then move back to the phone.

It should move into the ext4 partition.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] wisefreakz:
They are all in ext4...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] fabricaque:
I know it is inside ext4. Please try to move to the sdcard and back to the phone again.

I did face this b4 :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] wisefreakz:
I have done that before you mention... and it looks like its a bit more stable.

One doubt... i notice that all sd-ext\app files are alson in data\app.

Why is that?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ivanoterra:
Why

Is ext4 faster or what ?

Im kinda noob on this android and stuff things, so i donno.

I can put my apps on SDcard without formatting to ext2, 3 or 4.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] wisefreakz:
Well, now after billions of testing, formating, reflashing... all looks pretty nice now.

@ivanotera: moving apps to sdcard is not the same as moving apps to a second partition where this second partition is journaled - case of ext4.

It means that when you boot your phone, this partition is ready to use and does not need to be "prepared" as the usual fat32 - thats why we see the message after boot up that sd card is being prepared (in fact the OS is checking if the partion is corrupted or not.

Also when moving apps directly to sd card like you are doing, is not good as phone becomes slow, widgets, shortcuts dissapear while booting phone and while phone is connected to pc via usb with sd mounted for access.

With ext4 (using ext4.ko module) OS will think that this second partition is part of the internal storage and all of the above mentioned will not be a problem anymore and you will not get that anoying message that you have not enough space just because you added a couple apps.

Hope this can clarify some important things.

Cya
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ivanoterra:
Yeah, got it.

But another question, is ext4 "viewable" by windows ?

Because i have a 32gb card, so i use it as a "pen drive", have some apps so when i format a pc, not at home, i have some apps already, and dont have to download it.

Or in the case of creating a ext4, i partition the sdcard, so i have the "apps" partition and the "windows" partition ?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3484jacks:
1. You need to save the file onto the root of your SD card (i.e not in a folder)

2. Boot your phone into recovery by holding vol down and pressing power and using the volume buttons to navigate to recovery and pressing power to select recovery

3. In recovery navigate to install zip from SD card using the volume buttons and press the trackball to select it.

4. Navigate down to the file name and press the trackball to flash it.

5. Once its finished flashing navigate to reboot system now

Once this is done you should see the superuser app in the app drawer. You have root.

If you didn't flash the recovery at the last stage of revolutionary, you can re run the process again. It'll know you have already s-offed and will offer the custom recovery again.

Please close the thread

Thank you all

Dear all

After reading a lot the threads I decided to make this post. Sorry if this matter had been answered somewhere else for this phone.

Before I had a TD2, later a Nokia 5800.

I bought SII before a week

When I go to the places where I had GSM signal or 3G, I noted that with the SII the gsm signal is comperative with my old phones very weak (TD2 better than 5800), even not existing.

Many times I am not able to operate the phone at all since gsm is missing.

Seems like there is a lack of sensitivity to the gsm module of the SII.

I 'm using the factory 2.3.3

If you think that there is a software or ROM that can make more sensitive the phone please tell me so

Beyond that the phone is great
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgepat:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgepat:
Of course its in the same network, my home, my office is at the same place..... hopefully

The reception of SII lacks from 5800 which is worst than TD2,
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgepat:
The SII stopped recognizing the SD card....

So I returned the SGS2 to the service of Samsung. I 'm gonna take it back in a week.

Meanwhile I use my old Nokia 5800, which, since I go to the same places again and again it really has a much better signal and almost never looses the 3G or H.

Comparing to my damaged i9100 it has a much better reception in GSM.

I will let you know when Samsung returns me my phone.

Since I was looking a lot for the reception problem in the internet, mostly I read that there is also a low reception of the Wifi, which I didnt notice....
