Odin one of Dr honks kernels
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] NicksDevouredByTheSkyline:
So im using one of Dr honks's kernals. The 2.3.3 one with the messed up rainbow screen when you boot it up. Ive already had 4 problems with it and ive been running this for 3 days. Plus I cant even get into recovery. Is there a stable 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 kernal that has recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
All of them besides anythin 2.3.3. Stay away from anything of that build.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
sounds like you don't have the correct boot loaders on your phone, and you didn't flash gingerbread properly the first time around.

follow FB's directions to get your phone on a correct gingerbread build with the right boot loaders:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
keep it tho honestly because this is the only real device that sucks with rom manger and u wont always have that phone :P
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] emod0705:
Raver has a great app on his ROM for CWM access..it's called Quick Boot..get it from market. Remember with GB I'd use kj1 from drhonk. Only use Bali 2.3 with froyo.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] NicksDevouredByTheSkyline:
Do you guys think that if I do a 2.3.5 kernal by Dr Honks that I wont have to factory rest my phone? Cuz I finally have my phone all organized and the way I like it most and that take forever.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] emod0705:
If u do that through CWM recovery then no u won't.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] emod0705:
Kj1 would work best.. DL it through the phone if u want, move it to sd from the download folder (could be tapatalk folder depending on which browser u use) and flash through CWM . Should be pain free.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MrPapito429:
Can i rename kernel folder to update.zip and flash in 3e

[Motorola Droid X2] germmeetsworld:
I'm thinking about SBFing my rooted x2 back to 2.3.3 from 2.3.4 because of the terrible battery indicator, and was just wondering if I would be able to update straight to 2.3.5 (or possibly ICS) when the update comes. I don't know why this wouldn't be possible, but I just wanted to make sure before I actually SBFed the phone.

I also was wondering if my phone would still be rooted after the SBF because of the maintain-root-through-any-update mod. Any thoughts?

On a different note, if I had the x2 bootstrap, the maintain-root-through-any-update mod, and MyBackup Root, could I just backup all my apps and the system (using MyBackup Root and the bootstrap, respectively), SBF, then restore the phone by downloading the bootstrap and MyBackup Root and restoring my apps/system? Would this get my back to where I was before, or would I have to manually download each one of my apps and lose all previous data that I had on them? I'm just wondering what's the easiest way to restore my phone back to the layout that I had before I SBFed.

Thanks for your answers to any of these 3 questions!!! I definitely appreciate it.
[Motorola Droid X2] reaktorblue:
Perhaps someone elses experience proves different however, I kept 2.2.2 on my DX2 for quite some time because of similar reasons. When I decided to take the plunge from 2.2.2 and upgraded to 2.3.4 OTA, my phone needed to first upgrade to 2.3.3 before it would upgrade to 2.3.4. Thus, I had to perform two separate OTA updates.

If you're going to SBF you can SBF directly from your current version to the desired version.

To be honest, I'm not sure. I personally prefer to SBF to a clean DX2, wiping all settings and cache. To me I treat it like formatting my computer with a clean install of it's OS.

Perhaps someone else will have more insight with the maintain root through updates mod.

What I typically do is using the X2 Bootstrap, I make a Nandroid backup and restore directly from that. Performing an SBF is only going to be necessary if the backup was on a different kernel, otherwise if you may run into boot looping.

What exactly happened and what are you trying to do? Are you trying to restore your phone to an earlier point via SBF? As in you enjoyed the phone on 2.3.3, made a backup and now you're unhappy on 2.3.4 and wish to go back?

It sounds like if you were to SBF back to your desired version (the version you made the backups on) you would then be able to apply your backups and should be back to your desired phone state.

I'm slightly confused to the details due to the way it's worded. I know it's somewhat difficult to describe but that's the basic idea I'm getting. Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong or fill in the blanks.
[Motorola Droid X2] Tweek900:
Is 2.3.5 much better?
[Motorola Droid X2] germmeetsworld:
Okay so what I did was SBF back to 2.3.3 (I did this two nights ago) and before I did that, I:

1. Renamed the bloatware back to .apk (I had the suffix's ".bak" as an alternate "freezing" method).

2. Used MyBackup Root to make a backup of all my apps+their data.

3. Made a backup of the phone using the bootstrap.

4. SBFed

5. Rooted

6. Downloaded MyBackup Root

7. Restored all my apps and data and it worked!!!

8. Celebrated! I had no faith in it working but all my apps are back! I was so impressed, I was expecting to have to redo all my games and everything. MyBackup Root is such a sweet app, or I'm just a loser.

I hoped this helped other people, I had no idea what was gonna happen, no one's ever told me how to specifically get my phone back to the layout that I wanted.
[Motorola Droid X2] germmeetsworld:
and related to reaktor's post, what I was doing was SBFing back to my desired state of 2.3.3, just because I hate the battery glitch on 2.3.4. It had nothing to do with any apps I had, sorry for the confusion.

Your last reply was a little off but that was my fault, I'm sorry for my wording haha. I just have never known how to NOT have to redownload all my apps and start over on my games' data once I restore/SBF a phone. Now I know.

BTW my phone didn't maintain its root, just for reference for others. I had to reroot.
[Motorola Droid X2] imchairmanm:
Well... You might want to do that again. There's now a battery fix for 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 in the dev forum.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tinkererx:
I believe the rule (law, even) is that they have 90 days to release the source. Samsung have released source very quickly (sometimes same day) lately so I'll hope for the latter.

no CM9, but CM7 official. i guess that's more than we all need :).

not all low-end devices get an official CM, so we can be really happy and proud of him to be a developer for taking care of our Ace :D

in the name of the reputation of the Ace-community, pls dont spam him with asks for keeping the work on CM9 on ace (i've seen that **** often enough on his G+ account, it's a little bit embarrassing imho) .

i guess he has got enough other jobs to do, RL or CM or whatever :)

I just started having the old wifi problem. I wiped the device, reinstalled CM7 with CWM, and its come back, th wifi settings freeze up, and i cant get a IP address or connection via wifi.
[TouchPad General] vvskiies:
are u restoring the settings using any apps ?
[TouchPad General] cks4131:
Same. Just all of a sudden, my wife and my tp just stopped connecting to the wifi. Laptop and phone connect fine. Can't be a coincidence? Tried resetting wifi...tried going to airplane mode. Next step I guess is to reflash.
[TouchPad General] derausgewanderte:
did you try to go into WiFi settings, "forget" current WiFi, turn WiFi off,wait a few secs' then turn WiFi back on. Once the WiFi connection is recognized you type in your WiFi key and it should connect again. Happens most of the time on mine in cm7.
[TouchPad General] turbulence1:
I have the same problem, and I have to perform the fix action you described to get the WiFi back up and running.
[TouchPad General] pa49:
I use Regpon from the market.

Never had any WiFi issues.
[TouchPad General] perpe:
I have wifi problems, if I boot into webos and then back to cm7.

"Forgetting" the current wifi ist the best solution and works till a next boot into webos, so I stopped booting into WebOs.

No need for an app like regpon, they keep the wifi all time connected and disbale deep sleep, too battery intensive.

I'm using Tasker to turn Wifi off/on then my display turns off and on, because default powersaving options don't work.
[TouchPad General] KaliKot:
Try This:

Settings - Applications - Development - Device Hostname

Change it to something shorter and simpler like Touchpad or something
[TouchPad General] pa49:
I think you are missing the point.

Regpon avoids deep sleep thus keeping WiFi on AND avoiding deep sleep SODs meaning no toggling or switching of any kind, at least for me.

I don't see any appreciable battery trade-off either.
[TouchPad General] perpe:
You're right, if you have SoDs, but if not why avoiding deep sleep? I don't have any.

Surely I can let wifi all time on, but have no reason to waste my battery.
[TouchPad General] derausgewanderte:
once wifi is on it stays on here, doesn't go down on sleep either. it's only when I boot that I have to do the forget excersize to get it back.

I'm putting the swype installer up in case some has the same issue I had. After registering for the beta and receiving my email with the download link the installer error-ed out stating that it doesn't support my device.

So here is how to get around that.

Directions:

1. Register at swypes website for beta version.

2. Delete any backups you may have of it in Titanium Backup.

3. Get Titanium Backup if you don't already have it.

4. Download this file here: and unzip it, there will be 3 files in it.

5. Place all 3 files in the sdcard/TitaniumBackup folder

6. Launch Titanium Backup and restore the backup.
