gmaps crashing

Gmaps 6.0.2 always crashes when I zoom in and do the two finger tilt on an area with 3d buildings. Other than that, this rom is a winner, thank you!
[Acer Iconia A500] af974:
Sorry guys but as you well know Thor's kernel cannot be shared here on XDA since it miss the source code in compliance with GPL.

So, i'm really boring to got reports about this issue and i'm so much more frustrated because user won't understand why we cannot allow that.

Please, no more link to Thor rom or kernel or link to his site and no more links to signature.

Don't blame with me, this are rules.

Thread closed.

PS: i never gave infractions on that purpose but now i will start to follow my mod duties.

I have been attempting to root my Samsung Captivate stock with 2.3.5 UKJ1. The recovery mode is 3e and not the 2e. Is there a way to root? I have tried manually with no success, also tried the z4 with no success, and also tried the superoneclick 2.1.1 with no success.
[TG01 General] jonnyhall1bmx1:
people who have the poor signal in wp7 try this that noker pm me

Remember, this method reset all settings in your phone...

-> Run Bootloader Menu (+- Volume)

-> Change only in all options, this:

------------------------

Set Boot Options

------------------------

Cold Boot? [warm]

Change "warm" to "cold", and save options...

i have tried this but with no change, however other people mite succeed :)

let me know your results and dont forget to thank nokser as he is helping us out for all the bugs:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gaugerer:
In spite of a few gripes (let's face it, no phone can suit everyone) the Galaxy Note must be the best phone ever made. It has no major issues and is small enough to be used as a phone and big enough to be used as a Tablet. It is also at the forefront technically and will soon be updated to Ice Cream Sandwich.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
No. Its just bigger and it has a pen.

And it will not soon be updated to ICS.

But it is the phone I like most, and I have had a few.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bbdj69:
Lol, which phone do you you think is better??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jason370:
it is amazing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.W:
You seem very hung up on this point and are using a lack of official statement to conclude that no update will be forthcoming. Has any manufacturer put a time table on updates. HTC announced a few phones today that will be upgraded to ICS, but put no timetable on the process.

I'm willing to be patient and see. At worst, CM9 should be available, and if someone can extract the s-pen apks then that might be good enough.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Pops_G:
I think its the fastest/highest resolution phone available at the moment?

Certainly it has the largest screen, but that does not automatically grant it the "best" title. Some would even consider the size a negative.

Its lack of NFC and a notification LED are among its draw backs. The s-pen is awesome and the fact that its optional makes it only a positive.

In the end it all comes down to preference. That said, it would certainly get my vote for best phone ever. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
I am "hung up" on people believing things "for sure, soon, confirmed, etc", while there is no official statement, just rumors spread by traffic hungry bloggers.

ICS would be nice, but don't count on it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Techvir:
Almost every new phone that is released these days is the best ever.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] piet_bull:
Well, it's the best phone for me right now :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gede:
Hear, hear
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] n25philly:
No, because I can't use it on my network. I wish the manufacturers and carriers would cut of the bs already
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Pops_G:
Why can't you switch networks? That's what I'm going to do to get this phone. Gotta love competition.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LiquidNitrogen:
To quote Homer*, "Best ever, so far"

*from the Simpsons Movie
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] n25philly:
Because I get my cell service through work. If I switch it means I pay for it. I would pay for the phone if it was compatible with T-Mobile. I could really use a new phone too, so I'm hoping someone else comes out with a similar type phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sparkyxda:
The best since the last one and until the next one.

Apparently this message was too short until I added this line
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Prozac69:
It's too big for me and is sadly going back.

Don't get me wrong, the screen is lush and ideal for lots of things but I'm struggling with any keyboard I've tried. Think my hands are too small! Also scared it's going to slip out of my hands.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shEEEsh:
I am using it on T-Mobile. Wondering if the modem changer I used with my Galaxy Tab will give me 3G .. I really don't care if it does or does not ..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] avetny:
Yes

Best phone....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kalotina:
yes best phone because size matters
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kromosto:
for me it is the best phone so i want to buy it but no ics update makes me think
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jommy999:
my best phone by far ! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] avetny:
in android industry yes.

Best cpu, best gpu.

But out of android I know 1 phone witches got better GPU.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Super Chimp:
Only if you consider best equals most ludicrously oversized phone then yes it is.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] marianoitalianoo:
My best phone so far
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bbdj69:
My best phone by far as well.

Honestly I thought the screen was going to be bigger when I opened the box lol. No complaints, its just there are so many people who are like OMG its so big. I think I could hit 5.5" and be fine :)

Oh yeah, and the screen isn't as amazing as I thought it would be, small text really shows off the pentile display. Not sure if a true PLUS screen would fix that, but I am splitting hairs. It is beautiful, but didn't knock my socks off!

I love this phone!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Oneiricl:
It's the best phone for me so far...

But honestly there's no such thing as a best phone... that's what I'm beginning to really appreciate about the Android platform - different strokes for different folks...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
i would be curious to see how the tegra3's gpu compares.

but apparently ICS is confirmed for the SGS2 and note and a few other samsung devices according to samsung italy. http://www.pcauthority.com.au/News/...-sandwich-coming-to-samsung-galaxy-range.aspx

i doubt it will come as quickly as theyve listed. december/january seems more realistic if we want something bug free. but then again, considering samsung has been working on the galaxy nexus, it does mean that theyve had a bit more experience with ICS than some of the other manufacturers.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wendyalison:
Wouldn't be sure enough to say "yes" to this question unless I've really tried out all phones out there, including working prototypes. I feel that in a few years, this might be shadowed by something better.

For now, suffice to say is that I'm happy with it. Nonetheless, I do miss the call quality of Motorola handsets. If Motorola comes out with a comparable 5.3-incher, then I'll likely make a switch (I'll keep dreaming).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kersh:
I simply can't back to any other phone with less screen.

Looking my old S2 looks like a toy that doesn't have true purpose, browsing the web, apps, writing, everything is much better on note.

I am not going back to smaller screen devices, no ****ing way.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
This phone isn't for everyone, that's for sure.

But in terms of how I use a phone, this phone is pretty close to perfect.

- Frank
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Xaddict:
But there WILL be an ICS update in the next 6 months, and if not, something better from the Devs here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] fards:
i do love when these kind of threads bring out the "its too big" or "you look stupid with something that size" comments, (the polite versions)

I've been using my dell streak for 18months, its damn near perfect size, but then I am just under 2m tall and can wrap my fingers around it.

small toy phones look just that on me, stupid...

if you don't like big phones then don't use it, but please, keep your own negative opinion to yourself.

I like to think of it as "mansized" ***

with this resolution and size, everything works as it should, and after a 10" tablet it seems tiny!

Of course some people obviously struggle with the concept of anything bigger than 4" in their hands... ;)

*** wendyalison no offence meant at all there in any way :D

glad to see it's not going to be a male only device!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kyoukoku:
You don't deserve the awesomeness of the Note, so you'd better eat your words & change your attitude pal; Samsung has just confirmed (via their official global blog) that the Note will get ICS in Q1 of 2012 ==>> http://global.samsungtomorrow.com/?p=8894
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] xAnimal5:
I know I love the comments about how big it is.

My friends go "It's So big, you need 2 hands to use it"

Meanwhile, they're texting with 2 hands and playing games with 2 hands, as well as browsing with 2 hands.

The only people that complain about the size are the apple fan boys.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] yeahmon:
I used to only hear that from girlfriends:D

After using it for a week, I will say that I get a LOT of comments about it.

However, it is LAGGY.

I have put up two pages of shortcuts and the thing chokes when I try to slide through the pages.

But, that's the only problem I can see with it so far. That and I cannot get an Otterbox for it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dennishhh:
I see no shortcomings in this phone and can't see wanting another. I was in store buying Christmas presents when the salesperson saw my phone and just about had a melt down, where'd you get it, whats it called, where can I get one! etc.etc.etc. That says it all.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Android3220:
Its the bestest of best
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] naimmkassim:
I have galaxy tab 7" and im really happy with its big screen!! Wait, do i really feel happy? Nope!! It is a pain in the ass when try to carry it around. Then i got sensation with 4.3" screen, yes, fall in love with it because easy to carry around plus good qhd screen. But do i really happy? Nope again cause the screen is feeling small to me. Then the GNote come, 5.3" big enough to put in my pocket :D plus good screen SAmoled which i see not much difference on qhd. Now i think i have a combination phone of sensation and tab..haha..really like this Note!! (^__^)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alexanderbooth:
For me its the best gadget I've ever owned never mind best phone. Love it to bits my girlfriend is always kicking off cause all I do is play on it hahahahaha
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Spartan2x:
Post this in the Galaxy Nexus forum and you may get a different response. You know this is where all the Note Owners hang out, lol.

(I love my Note....)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] martcerv:
Best phone Ive had so far, best ever I dont think so as its too big for many but thats the main reason I love it.

I dont think I will be going back to a smaller phone any time soon, but once the next big phone like this comes out with a 1080p samoled+hd 3d screen im going to be getting it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Sunil_k:
Right now, Its the best phone for me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] galaxytab1:
Update to ICS is confirmed. http://global.samsungtomorrow.com/?p=8894
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] betoNL:
Which reaction you expect when you ask this on a Note forum where users already paid lots of money on this device ? :D

Try posting this on a GNexus forum or Android general forum....You will get other feedback...

By the way, the GNexus was launched after the GNote, and it already got more votes here:

http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/poll-vote-for-the-best-phone-of-2011/

I voted for the GNote by the way.....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AdzUK:
In short; Yes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] martcerv:
I think that poll should be more like, which phone do you have? How many people will vote for devices they don't have.

Probably i think the gs2 is the best of the year, its a mini note and has been a huge seller. I think the note is better for me as my gs2 looks like a little toy now lol.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] trinev:
I think it is perfect except for the damn screen issues. It has this werid lines when you have a low bright and a grey or white screen for many people. If It hadn't that issues it would be the best phone right now
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] skyhew:
HD2 is the best ever... but hope Note will be the next.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eddiee:
Definitely SGS2. It doesn't have any important weak points.

Note is a specialized device for niche (which I am part of).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hagba:
My HD2 is in a deep hIbernation after I got the GNote, but to be fair for two years it served me incredibly well,and yes I could vote as the best smartphone ever.

2) If I flash it, how can I rollback to "stock kernel"?

Thank You
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
crap. :( doesn't matter how long your phone is up, this is different totally different from mine...

time for a wipe then and a very long setup watching how each app and setting influences idletimes... *sigh* there's nothing in my app-list i'd connect with it.

edit: this is with lazy or ondemand, right?
[Nexus S Android Development] coloxim:
my battery is better without deep idle....:(
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
@flohimself:

one more, i guess you enabled deepidle via nstools, right? what about max-freq? and are you using bfs or cfs?
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
Iam using the 1.1 CFS version, and bln is not working for me anymore . in the 1.0 function it did work ( although just one button, which I thought was kinda cool) but on the 1.1 version it is not working any more. NStools says backlightnotification is on .. I have a Nexus s I9023 .. Am i doing something wrong ?
[Nexus S Android Development] debbio:
I've resolved the idle stat's problem... it was related to the camera bug.. I didn't notice the advert in the first post.. my fault.. great stable kernel!!
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Made that wipe now.

didn't even bother about sys-settings, just installed nstools, tapatalk and root-explorer. syncing contacts & calendar with Google. used nstools to enable didle, changed nothing else.

tried both 1.2 cfs and bfs. always the same: didle-time is more than 10 times less than idle-time.

anyone still got the link to v1.0 & 1.1? batt-drain started with 1.1, I'd like to try them all. and in der-kernel-thread someone is claiming higher batt-drain with didle than without, maybe the same bug as mine?
[Nexus S Android Development] Ezekeel:
If you have problems with reboots, freezes or SoDs try it without OC and UV.

The screenshots look fine to me. Most of the time the system was in the SLEEP state. So no processes are holding a wakelock for an excessive time. And for the short wakeup time the DEEP IDLE state was properly used. The process with the largest power usage is Mobile Standby, so no processes are running wild in the background. I am getting the same results. The battery drain of 1-2% per hour is not so bad. Remember that the value shown is just an estimate. Give it some charge cycles to calibrate.
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
uhm, what? Oo

sorry, but did you just have a quick glance at the screenshots or did you read the text as well? those 1-2% per hour would leave you at 2-4 days of uptime with data-connection disabled (!) and the phone never being used. that's not good, expecially not for a system that has more than 4 batt-saving features implemented...

but okay, apparently it is more important to prove first that i'm not a complete idiot and n00b when it comes to android and phones in total. so lemme try...

i'm still running that fresh, unconfigured system described above, 1.2 cfs-kernel. deepidle is disabled. here are two screens, you still think this is normal?

if next i change gov to ondemand and leave the phone in standby, that idle-time will skyrocket. if i then enable deepidle as well, the idle-time will still climb like crazy, but time in deepidle will not even be a tenth of it.

did i mention that except contacts & calendar no syncing at all is going on because i didn't install anything except root explorer, tapatalk (notifications OFF) and nstools?!
[Nexus S Android Development] Ezekeel:
When the screen is off and no background process running, the device will enter SLEEP. This is working fine for you. The idle stats do not show the this time in SLEEP, but only the time during the short wakeups in between.

Give the battery a few charge cycles to calibrate.
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Now you've made me read up on power-man a lot. ^^

looks like i got deepidle wrong, like many. i just hope it really is a calib-thing and not deep sleep being shallow... 2% per hour is a lot, you gotta admit that.
[Nexus S Android Development] Mecid8:
i am enable deep idle in NSTools, but in stats DEEP aways 0 ms. what i do wrong?
[Nexus S Android Development] xanadu:
On my unit battery drain is 9% in 15 hours. Out of box nothing changed.
[Nexus S Android Development] Ezekeel:
Your device is properly using the SLEEP state. The energy consumption of the CPU cannot get lower than that. So either this is just a calibration thing or some other component is actually using this amount of energy. Either way, DEEP IDLE is running fine and not the problem.

Camera bug. Read the initial post.
[Nexus S Android Development] franciscofranco:
I shall welcome you, Ezekeel, king-of-mods, to a neverending world of questions that have been answered 100 thousand times and explained in the first posts. May the gods have mercy on you.

[Nexus S Android Development] Ezekeel:
Yeah, I already noticed that. The only way you can endure that without losing your mind is simply keep acting like that question which has already been answered in the initial post was not asked. Sooner or later people will get impatient, start to search and figure it out on their own.
