Do we have confirmation of this behavior? will the on screen nav buttons disappear if the ics install detects capacitive buttons? I was told the determination of wether or not the on screen nav buttons show up had to do with the resolution of the device. anybody have the final word?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bettyberserker:
I'm assuming my Incredible is semi-bricked...

Forever stuck on white splash screen.

HBOOT available but nandroid recoveries have been deleted.

Incredibly Re-Engineered rom is on SD but due to my CWM being V3.x, my attempts to flash are unsuccessful (edify scripts).

Placed IMG on SD root for recovery; Any/all update installation runs through quickly then states "unsuccessful."

Factory reset attempted; boots through white splash screen into CWM where it displays; "E:INVALID COMMAND ARGUMENT

Hard reset attempted; Does not ask me if I'm sure. Android bot with installation box in process image is seen but doesn't load then device turns off and reboots back to white splash screen... Where it remains.

Think I need to flash compatible firmware as last attempt to get this sucker working and HOPING someone will provide their time and expertise in walking me through the process.

In the warm 2.2 thread there should be a flashable for cwm 2. If you really want ir-e, go that route. But you could easily get the latest cm7 or stock+ by jermaine and just flash

-Dual core? I don't need no stinking dual core!-
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bettyberserker:
Okay- I'll search for and try that now.

I'm sure one of the steps will instruct me to upload the flashables to my sd root... Considering the CWM .IMG files don't work, that worries me a tad.

Simply for curiosity sake; What do I do if that doesn't work?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watt9493:
I honestly have no clue. I don't have experience in that situation. You're gonna need someone with more expertise. :/

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SynisterWolf:
did you get this working? you can always update CWM with HBOOT and download a gingerbread rom boot into recovery to mount sd and transfer the rom to your sd card for install.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragon droid:
OK. This should help. First get a PB Img from Doug piston website or pvillecomp.com make sure it is a 2.2 Img and not 2.3 After that place the img on the root of your SD card. Boot into hboot and run the update. You will now be stock froyo 2.2 Next root the phone using unrevoked3 after that download Rom manager from the market and from there you can use Rom manager to flash the cwm recovery you want. Then boot into cwm and flash the recovery img you want or flash a zip of the Rom you want. Hope this helps.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] qazzi76:
This may be of some use to someone so I am posting this here.

I was having problems pairing my Note with http://www.dealextreme.com/p/73-key...for-android-windows-symbian-ipad-iphone-50796

Infamous "paired but not connected."

This keyboard however would pair and function correctly with the Galaxy S2 and my Galaxy Tab as well as the Iphone 4.

I resolved this issue by replacing bluetooth System files on the Galaxy Note (running [ROM] N7000ZSKK1 Hong Kong Version [11.11.2011] [Android 2.3.6]) with the Bluetooth system files from the Overcome v2.0.0 BETA2_Full rom for the Galaxy Tab.

- Audio.so and input.so copied to system/lib/bluez-plugin

- hciattach, bluetoothd, btld, copied to system/bin

- libbluedroid.so, libluetooth.so, libbluetoothd.so copied to system/lib

- BrcmBluetoothServices.apk copied to system/app

All copying was done using Root Explorer and enabling r/w then back to r/o after copied on required folders

The grand result of this is that now I have my favorite keyboard working on the Note!

Chuffed!!! :0)

And with that I bid you all good night!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thomas1:
Hello everyone,

I read a lot of threads but I didn't find any tutorial in here that explains how to root the S2 without increasing the flash counter.. Well I found one but it was concerning the AT&T version. I guess if you can do it on the AT&T version there must be a way to do on the international version but I didn't find anything...

I don't wanna take any risks with the warranty and I heard the usb thingy doesn't work on the latest firmwares.

So is there any way at the moment to root the international S2 without changing the flash counter ?

Thanks a lot !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z3r0n3:
You can always just downgrade the bootloader and the USB Jig will work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seanicca:
I updated to the latest fw with new bootloader, i then flashed the old bootloader back onto phone and then reset counter with usb jig. The old bootloader can be found on the site, just can't remember where at the minute
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
You could root with zergrush for a basic root. Then if you want custom kernels without starting the counter you could install the first one by using dd to install a zImage that includes CWM. After that only upgrade from CWM and you will never start the counter.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thomas1:
Hey thanks for your replies.

I read so many threads and never heard about zergrush. I think a lot of people just want the easiest way to root their phone without voiding the warranty period. No custom roms, no clockworkmod thingy and so on. I really wonder why complicated methods are sticked when an easy and probably safer one exists. So here is the method :

No, other way around. Busybox will need root. But busybox is VERY useful; if you are a linux user, it provides many higher level linux commands not otherwise available in android.

can teach me how to download from amazon website ??

even google it and used those solution also not work for me T_T
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] sweetnsour:
i think it is much easier using the amazon app than using the website.

to download the free app, you need an amazon account (and a credit card linked to it)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] slipkn0t:
This guide will tell you how to install the apps from amazon.com from your Android phone if you live outside the US. Now you can enjoy the Free App Of The Day from Amazon.com

Step 0: First go to www.amazon.com and click Sign In.

Step 1: Create a new Amazon account by selecting “No, I am a new customer”, and complete the registration wizard.

Step 2: Put US Address and Phone Number. You can put any random phone number as long as it ha proper code.

Alternatively, you can generate random US address and phone number, etc. with www.fakenamegenerator.com

Step 3: Assign US address as account’s 1-click default address.

Step 4: Next, go to “Add a Credit or Debit Card” section. Paypal provides developers with sets of test credit card account numbers which can also be used in Amazon account. You can also use these test credit card numbers to register in Amazon Appstore. This can be found here

Step 5: Your Amazon account is now configured to get any free apps from Amazon AppStore

Step 6: Now you can download and install Amazon AppStore for Android. Run Amazon AppStore App and login with this new username/password. Now you can download all free apps from Amazon.

NOTE1: You will still not be able to purchase any paid apps (apps which are not free) with these test credit cards.

NOTE2: It is highly recommended to make a new user rather than using US address in preexisting usernames.
[HTC Rezound] Therev29:
I was told by the Verizon rep not to dial *228 with 4g phones becauseit can mess up the sim card. Can anyone confirm this?
[HTC Rezound] Mean Bro Greene:
It won't mess anything up, but it also doesn't do anything.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
I would think that it would help 3G and 1X. But yeah, no effect on 4G.
[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
This goes back to the Thunderbolt's original release. All 4G devices have the SIM card, which is activated along with your first 4G phone and essentially "encoded" with your phone number (so you can move the card from 4G device to 4G device and not have to "activate" with your phone number).

I also believe that *228 "programming" is not required because (at least partially) the 4G phones that can do simultaneous voice & data use the 1X antenna for the voice, and the 3G/4G antenna for data signal.

If you try to do *228 from a 4G phone, it just hangs up without doing anything else.
[HTC Rezound] Therev29:
well I don't have 4g in my area yet but good to know. Thanks everyone!

[Nexus S General] matt2053:
So, a few questions to start the discussion:

1. Do you think we can build working ROMs with proprietary files from 2.3.7? Or will build configurations mess it up?

2. Hardware: the requirements are incredible. https://groups.google.com/group/and...l=en_US&lnk=gst&q=16gb&pli=1#7355d4256bdf4906

Any of you guys going to give it a shot? I only have 4 cores and 8 gigs of RAM, I might try but based on JBQ's post, it will take me over 10 hours to make one build!
[Nexus S General] anon20:
Ten hours well spent. I wish I had the knowledge to do it myself.

Mods: please don't lock this thread. Let us have one place to discuss the development of ICS.
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
Ten hours IF it doesn't fail!

Seriously though, if you are intelligent, patient, and a good google searcher, you can do it. The instructions are pretty good. I taught myself just from reading the website and googling when I got errors. http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
[Nexus S General] cteneyck:
Lower system specs are OK. It just means that you time to compile will be longer.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
From what I understand this build is for the Galaxy Nexus so I imagine drivers and such will not be included for the Nexus S. But I'm sure we'll have some of our best developers cook things up soon enough (as long as xda mods didn't banned all of them out yet).
[Nexus S General] Mattix724:
So if it's 10 hours to build with no errors on your machine then my build time must be about 10 days since I only have an old single core with 2 gig of ram...

I need to upgrade :(

copyed from other post:

"no less than 16 GB RAM to build the source code, twice the amount Gingerbread needed. It will take 5 hours to compile on a dual quad-core 2+GHz workstation, and need 80GB disk space for all AOSP configs."

this is actually a low spec pc..

80GB of normal HDD?...

2x quadcore 2+ghz??

no **** it needs 16GB of DDR2 1066...

these specs easly burns the stated specs:

60GB SSD

six core 3.5GHz.

8GB DDR3 2000.

the infrastructure of a dual quadcore and a 80GB HDD isnt really a system in advantage.. as seeing that the HDD will be 1 of the bottlenecks (tus the rotation speed) and the recomanded ram being 16,not meaning it will actually use the full 16GB ram.

and yes the are using DDR2 because there hasnt been a dual CPU board with a 4 slots DDR3 system for a while,just shortly.

I read a review of the Galaxy Nexus that said the Google Search bar is permanent on the home screen. I understand it's to replace the search button, but what about Nexus S devices that get ICS? Will we have both the capacitive search button below and the permanent search bar on our home screens?

I hope this is not true.

Edit: the review is here: http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/galaxy-nexus-discussions/10025-galaxy-nexus-review.html If you keep scrolling down, the reviewer says:

"Launcher: As a stock device and as an Android enthusiast I am disappointed that the search bar on the top of all home screens is not user removable. I prefer to be able to set my device up to my liking. Some may see this as nitpicking but I think in future updates making this user removable would keep in the spirit of giving the end user maximum control over their own experience."
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
I'm sure we won't have the on-screen buttons. But as far as the search bar I think we'll have planty of ROMs to pick from which remove it or give you an option.

[Nexus S General] Luxferro:
it doesn't take that long to compile a build. I finally was able to compile an ICS emulator build (don't use the newer versions of ubuntu or kubuntu ..11.10, unless you want to get errors that you need to google answers for, and it still might not get you past them for compiling ICS since most stuff found is for GB).

Anyway, I complied it in a virtual box using 3 cores of my i5 2500k (@4.2GHz), with 8 gigs of ram configured for the virtual machine. I don't recall the exact time it took, but i would guess between 1-2 hours.
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
Doesn't letting you install any launcher you want give you all the control you need?
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
I'm just surprised Google would remove that sort of customizability from the user in the stock launcher. Not everyone will want that bar up there (if anyone uses WP Clock live wallpaper for example, the bar would block the live clock in the background). The search bar could be a real awkward blemish for people who want minimalistic home screens. Venture the Nexus S theme forum; plenty of people keep it extremely clean and simple.

I would think Google would at least let us choose which home screen to leave the search bar in, like it allows now with the search widget.

I know it's not a major deal, but it's a little confusing why Google would force that there. And like I said, ICS for the Nexus S... it'll just be redundant.
[Nexus S General] Ianas:
It wasn't removable in 3.x ( honeycomb). Makes sense for 4.0 as well.

Like the dude above said, just don't use the stock launcher.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
Another member: "Simple. Google makes money off of android because it enables users to search Google.com, and putting the search bar at the top increases the chance that they'll do just that."

A very valid point. It sort of makes the search bar its own bloatware, if you think about it.
[Nexus S General] Esteway.619:
Its in the sdk rom and it can't be removed by the user
[Nexus S General] kladd:
Sounds like a job for.... Super User! da dadaddaaa
[Nexus S General] Esteway.619:
Lmao that was funny
[Nexus S General] anaglich:
Or simply a different launcher.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
It's because there's no search button any longer with newer phones. Lose a button gain a widget or use another launcher. I like the search bar personally.
[Nexus S General] Zardos66:
I always have the search bar up on all my roms that I use with my Nexus S. It feel weird to me if it was missing.
[Nexus S General] didmywillybiteya:
thats about the time that 99% of us sleep. seriously tho nice score
[Nexus S General] holtenc:
Comparing apples to oranges. If you're using 3.0 then you're using a tablet. Its all about screen real estate. Search bar on 3.0 doesn't take up much of the usable space

On 4.0 it takes up 20%. (Not including the dock)
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
It just seems obstructive and it takes away some customizability from the user. Live wallpapers (like WP Clock) will have some of their information blocked.

ICS is the first time the stock launcher looks like it can stand completely on its own without having to install ADW or LP. It's obnoxious that Google is forcing a bar on your supposedly fully-customizable home screen.

I know I'm griping (I actually cannot wait for ICS) and upon first consideration, it feels like a minor thing, but when you think about it, it's bothersome that the search bar isn't a widget/optional. It's essentially Google bloatware.
[Nexus S General] Goat_For_Sale:
I am looking for a set of binaries for crespo to use in my ICS build. I understand nothing has been released for crespo yet offically however I would like to run something with as little user modification as possible.
