[LG Optimus 2x] wongumorts:
Hello everyone I'm new to android and was wondering what are the (title) except the extra app and bookmarks. I heard GB has been released for 2 weeks now but I didn't get it yet. I bought a subsidized phone on Vodafone (Romania). I saw on a site that subsidized phones have different product codes or w/e they are called, so they can only receive updates from the operator :(. If so is there any way to change that so that i receive updates from LG and not the operator? I'm sorry if anything similar has been posted but I didn't find anything.
[LG Optimus 2x] S0ci0:
Just flash it?
[LG Optimus 2x] rottenpenguin:
You can flash the Euro /Romania Open ROM or you can wait until 21 nov when LG claims they will release the VDF RO update.

If you decide to force the update, here are some hints
[LG Optimus 2x] wongumorts:
Thanks for the useful info, but I was wondering what exactly dosen't let me do the normal update?
[LG Optimus 2x] m0fizor:
Hello,

I spoke with someone from LG Romania and he said that Vodafone (for P990) and Orange (for Black) have to approve the update. There is no difference between Branded and Unbranded O2x.

You can see the discussion here: http://www.facebook.com/lgnews (see the wall post that announces Gingerbread)

Ah great, I got it :D thanks for info.

EDIT: I thought VF will modify the software somehow

I mean nothing that is SD card related can be found, used,played etc.. I truly believe my sd card died on me.. if so what do I do?? Get another sd card and be fine or??? Bcuz I am thinking of replacing this g2 with another but since my sd card seems shot does that mean I can't or re-root because I don't have the contents that came with the root??

Ps. I have backup roms but don't know how to put it on the what seems to 'dead' sd card. =Ditamae;19386527]Do you mean you can't reach them thru the stock gallery, or your file manager, video player, or all of the above?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:


Have you tried putting your card in an sdcard reader on your computer to rule out it being your ROM/device?

If your card is dead, then just buy a new one; you won't have your data but you'll still be able to root your new device if you chose to buy a new one.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sammyc521:
I have this same problem. Data off my SD Card will get randomly deleted. At first I thought it was because I used a particular app or when I sent a file as an attachment.

I've tried multiple SD Cards with the same results.

Just wondered if anyone knew it. Ive changed themes with this new ROM, and really would like to have it back.

Droid Sans and Clockopia. You can just pull it from /system/fonts from another ROM

you should try ROBOTO by Google. It is amazing and looks smooth.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
So once you get your Superuser working again, you can do this to change your fonts. I am attaching the original fonts that came with the phone but you can use any .ttf (true text fonts) you want and the process is the same. There is an app in the market called fontchanger that works too, but for me it caused an unrecoverable bootloop that I had to Odin to stock to get out of. Probably something to do with the permissions not being set correctly. I have done the below many times and was just looking for an easier way to do it. Foolish me. You can get fonts at 1001fonts.com or google .ttf fonts and some sites will show up.

SPELLING COUNTS~~make sure it is spelled correctly and Capitals are where they should be and make a CWR backup before you do this so if anything happens you can revert to your backup.

1-Download the .zip below and unzip it. Inside are the original fonts that came with the phone.

2- open you file explorer (I use Root Explorer) Make sure it is ticked RW (In Root Explorer the button is top right) and go to /system/font/Clockopia.ttf and rename it Clockopia.ttf1.

3- place new Clockopia.ttf (the one the you unzipped from below) in /system/fonts

4- long press on the new Clockopia.ttf and hit permissions. ***This is important b/c if you don't do this correctly, you WILL bootloop and have to restore your backup.

~~Permissions are as follows (see attached picture)

User: check Read, Write; no check on Execute

Group: check Read; no check on Write or Execute

Others: check Read; no check on Write or Execute

5- Repeat for steps for DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf

6- Once all the above are done for all three fonts Clockopia.ttf, DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf you can delete the originals that you renamed .ttf1

Double check the permissions for all three and if they are like the picture below, you can reboot.

Above all for you and anyone else wanting to do this manually,if you are not comfortable with doing this, then DON'T

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meloos:
I'm using polish language on my chacha. When i write sms i see in notification bar information that xt9 En is enabled. So that everything i write in polish is underlined. I just hate it. Is there any possibility to remove that spell checking? or somehow use polish one? there is no configuration for this under menus i guess. Or I'm just serching in wrong one - no menu about spell check under touch input etc. only text prediction ;/

maybe is there a shortcut on my hardware keyboard?

thank you in advance
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinhwut:
I've been mulling over the idea of rooting my phone just for the lagfix - the unrestricted access to the phone is just a bonus for me since I haven't had the urge to delve into ROMS and other things requiring rooting.

Seeing as there are ways to flash the phone back to stock if the need arises for a warranty (cracked screen, faulty wiring, and what have you) there would seemingly be a small risk in that regard.

For people who have rooted their Captivate, do you find it "the best thing ever"? Can you go back to an unrooted Captivate? I've read many people saying they felt their Captivate performing x2 faster with the lag fix, what are your experiences?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
You can read whole forum topics of people arguing about whether lagfix helps or not. It's really subjective and depends on a lot of different factors, so it's kind of like trying to judge which modem has faster data transfer. Maybe it's the modem, maybe it's where you were standing when you did the test :) My feeling is that it helps initially but I don't feel like it makes a substantial difference in the long run. If the ROM I'm running doesn't have it, I never apply it, but I never remove it if it comes with it either.

As far as rooting is concerned, you are correct that, barring a hardware defect like a bad USB port that prevented you from flashing, you can always go back to stock for warranty work. As long as the warranty situation doesn't bother you, there aren't any disadvantages to rooting as long as you do your research before you dive into your root folder and start deleting things :)

If all you want is lagfix and nothing more, I personally wouldn't bother. However, if you're looking to ease your way into learning more about the inner workings of your phone, maybe trying different ROMs, and generally tinkering, I think it's a great place to start.

Good luck!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinhwut:
I see, thanks for the information apbthe3!

I've decided to go ahead and root my phone, which I did successfully. Now when it comes to the lagfix, they all seem to be fairly outdated - at least the threads on here. Can anyone point me in the right direction to a working lag fix? As far as I've researched, http://project-voodoo.org/download is a good one, but it worries me because it says it's for "Froyo 2.2" whereas I'm running "Gingerbread 2.3"... will this be a problem?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradleyG:
Honestly, there is no reason I wouldn't want to root a captivate. It is much easier than my past experience with my G1 (HTC dream). Nothing but benefits can come about as a result of rooting your captivate. I would definitely try out flashing ROMs too, that's where you get the best increases in performance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
If you want to stay with Froyo, you can just flash a KB1 kernel that supports Voodoo and root. You can keep stock rom but have Voodoo lagfix, sound and Color fix + root. And In my opinion Lag fix is a big deal on Froyo roms, not so much on Gingerbread, though I use it on I897 roms.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinhwut:
Will Voodoo lag fix work with 2.3? Did some more reading and apparently it doesn't require your phone to be rooted.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Yes but not the link you posted. You need a kernel for gingerbread that had it baked in...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinhwut:
I see. I guess this is more trouble than what it can provide me. Was thinking it was as easy as a "one click" lag fix thing but after reading around it can get pretty over complicated with some methods...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capocaccia:
Dont get too overwhelmed. The process of flashing a kernel is downloading one file, connecting your phone, and clicking a button. You just have to make sure its the right and compatible kernel or you risk some big problems. Someone better with 2.3 based roms can help you find a kernel compatible with the stock rom.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HdMsTrTeCh:
New to the CM7 world, but not new to rooting, I have been messing with my system and I want to know if i did something wrong:

I purchased ADW Ex and wanted that launcher to be my only one, so I used the new ROM Toolbox and froze ADW with no problems. This still wasn't good enough for me (Aren't we all tweakers, that's why we are here?) so I deleted ADW in system/app and moved ADW Ex from data/app to the system/app. - Rebooted. My EVO seems to be running fine but when I look at the app in the android applications it says its only 684kb. The only place I see it showing its full size (1.8mb) is Root Browser (ROM Toolbox). I did not move the app to the SD so where is the rest of the apk file? Did I do this procedure correctly? I nandriod so I don't mind back-tracking.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Jeez dude, just install it and go with it...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
I feel like I've seen this post before...

Anyway, some system apps don't show their full size in "Manage Applications". I have a few that show 0 as their size. I don't know why, or how the size is calculated.

If it's running fine, let it be. There's nothing to worry about, your phone won't blow up or anything.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HdMsTrTeCh:
Thanks for the piece of mind. This was my first time messing with system apps. I realize this post sounded a bit anal but I really don't like redundant clutter in my phone. I started this rooting experience with a Samsung Moment and I'm used to cleaning up any messes to reserve space (old habit). I'd like to say that I love tweaking my EVO I'm glad there's a bunch of development for it. Bring on ICS!

Genuine Samsung 1650mAh batteries are only $30 at an AT&T store--$15 if you have corporate accessory discount.

Picked one up for my i9100, seems to fit okay and everything seems to work ok.

After searching, i could find that some people are using the NFC batteries (either from the i777 or the Korean NFC GS2).

Has anyone experienced any detrimental side effects to using the NFC batteries in a non-NFC equipped i9100?

Is there any risk for that matter w/ using an NFC battery for our i9100's?

I've been using one for four months now, only issue for me is that the battery cover creaks a bit more when the NFC battery is used, and the usual issue that happens when swapping batteries, your charge information is less precise at the bottom of the scale.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dan1431:
This thread got me thinking, if one inserts the NFC capable battery from the at&t Mobility SGS2 into a GT-I9100 would it provide the same NFC capability that it provides to the at&t version?

[Galaxy S II Accessories] veyka:
Nope, people have been working on it, but nothing seems to work so far, the battery only has the aerial in it anyway so you need the software and for the chip to be wired up correctly.

Did you mean the telus patcher at the end of the quiksense post? I actually flashed that one or else the wifi wont work. Or its a different thing I havnt seen yet?

I, personally, used the kernel tool (and attached kernel on post one of that thread) and have had no issues with bluetooth or wifi.

If you have have flashed the patch in the ROM thread and have problems (you shouldn't, because xboarder is amazing) than I would recommend the two step kernel flashing utility.

Hopefully, that helps...
[HTC Amaze 4G] today-g:
so it seems that i messed up at some point. thats ok. if my issue is not a common, i could stay with quiksense because this is an amazing kernel. i will try to solve this, or live with that and wait for ics...:)

Holey moley what a day. I took my HTC inspire in to the att corp store nearby becaause it was having some call disconnect issues and some random problems with the digitizer. Long story short I walked out with the Atrix 2 and my upgrade in January still intact. Never owned a Moto phone before so here I am in Noob land again.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Congrats on the new phone and you got one heck of a deal! Who knows what the next best phone is gonna be as fast as they have been rolling out lately and with LTE just getting up and running you got a nice deal being able to keep your upgrade ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] gunnyman:
I had the store manager and the sales guy both arguing with warranty support on the phone. I still had to BUY the atrix 2 for 99 bucks but I keep my upgrade and can send the inspire off to htc for repair. I'll sell it when I get it back.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
You should have made them price match Best Buy at 49.99! But im sure you can make it back and then some selling the inspire on ebay. Enjoy your new phone!

When I went in I hadn't intended to buy a phone. I did not do any pricing research

[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:

I managed to get a similar deal but I traded in both of my inspire 4g's for atrix 2's.

No charge, nothing added to my contract and my upgrade is still there in FEB.

I was legitimately having issues with dropped calls on my inspire and the atrix seems to have fixed the issue.
[Motorola Atrix 2] gunnyman:
The hell I had to raise was EPIC. I'm going out of town and needed a working phone ASAP. The idiots at the 800 number wouldn't swap my phone for me for another 2 weeks, totally unacceptable. Me, the sales rep I was working with in the store, and teh nanager spent about an HOUR all together on the phone.

I ended up getting very frustrated, saying I was in the ATT corp store and would just cancel my acct. I hung up. 5 minutes later they called back and made me the offer.
[Motorola Atrix 2] azangerle:
My experience was the complete opposite. I had a very nice conversation with manager about dropped calls and my problems with the inspire. He offered to switch me into the ATRIX2
[Motorola Atrix 2] Coldheat1906:
Hey gunnyman

Looks like we are both on the same phone again. I just came over from the Galaxy S2.... had too many HW problems with it and so I decided to try something different. So for I really do like the feel of the Atrix 2 and the speed is pretty much on par with the Galaxy S2. One thing I am missing is the ROMs...... lol.... but I'm sure the will come in time.

Maybe I need to start developing.... who know... :-)

Hey everyone, long time reader first time poster.

I am having a real issue tryign to find out how to unlock the Atrix 4G that i got just two weeks ago. Seems it came with Gingerbread 2.3.5 loaded on it and for one reason or another I can only find out how to unlock 2.3.4 and even that I can't seem to get into fastboot. Some of the tutorials I have read invole going into RSD mode which also doesn't seem to be working for me (holding volume up and turnign on the device). Is there a simple way to do this that can be suggested? Would hate to try to unlock and root for a rom and not be able to use my phone. Any help would be much appreciated. Also I am on ATT which from all I am reading may or may not make a difference.

Also side question is if possibly I am already unlocked with this Gingerbread being installed? Heard it might be released as unlocked but again not much I can find on 2.3.5.

Thanks everyone.

There are a couple of radios released for the Atrix. If you are on ATT, there is one that has been leaked from the OTA ATT update to GB 2.3.5, which has a newer radio version N_01.77.36P. It seems that people are having good results with that one.
