im using the gingerbread 2.3.7. by the way, is there any new ones or ones that you reccomend? im not picky just want somethign stable, fast and nice, htc sense or not doesnt matter let me know NAND btw
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
which one? half the roms are 2.3.7, just saying 'im on gingerbread 2.3.7' doesnt help much, , ,, far better to give the name, since there are so many variants.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] geezy21unc:
here is the one i have

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
is that the process you followed? If yes, then its already on nand rom. That article is about flashing typhoon (one of the most popular roms) to nand.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] geezy21unc:
yes i followed it to a Tee, lol so your saying its already on the internal phone memory??? ok then so your saying i can take out my SD and it will still boot? hmmm and typoon is what the zip file i have says, can you help me a bit further im following you so far but want to make sure im seeing this right and doiong it step by step thx for replying :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] geezy21unc:
watch the video at the bottom of the page from youtube thats on there, thats the step i followed
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] geezy21unc:
sorry this is the one i have installed not sure how i got the other , but this is the correct one :Cyanogen MOD 7 Gingerbread 2.3.7
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
yea thats NAND. there isn't an sd version of typhoon.

yes you can take your sd out and it should boot. (if you have an EXT partition on your sd card ((i didn't watch the whole vid, but it wasn't mentioned)) then any apps you have installed wont be there till you reinsert teh sd card.)

you need to read read read, there are four or five important parts to nand android.

bookmark THIS starting point, and start browsing threads in the Q&A section and NAND development.

basically, your key components are

hspl 2.08.hspl - don't touch this again, android wont work on any other.

radio - fine, you wont need to touch this again any time soon, as with the hspl.

magldr, hold power to start it, the only option you will use is 8 - ad recovery, which starts cwm

cwm (cwr, clockworkmod clockwork, clockwork recovery) which is what starts when you choose AD recovery in magldr, you flash your roms from here, wipe your data from here, factory reset (back to android, not a real factory reset), , you can usb transfer in cwm, the one in magldr corrupts large files.

The cwm 'partition size' is 150 ( i think thats what he chose?) This is the inportant piece of info you need if changing to a different rom, since different roms need different sized system partitions.

You can change this in the tookit you used.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] geezy21unc:
thx thx and thx!!! thats what i needed to know:D:D:D:D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Jrsewing1:
Check out EasyAndroid, with it you can flash NAND Android from stock HD2 in 30min.

I like useing the clk loader as you do not see it load as you boot the phone, and you can use the android boot to recovery option.

if you already have and SD Android i would download TitaniumBackup and make a backup of all of your aps, as you can use this to save your aps across any Android Rom.

Have fun with NAND Android,

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

I'm new here, and don't normally post on forums about technical issues (too nervous!) but something very odd came up on my Galaxy s2 today and my google-fu has failed me so far in finding anything similar.

I got it at the beginning of September this year, keep it in one of those leather wallet cases to protect it (and a screen protector), and during the day it mainly just sits on my desk at work. For some reason however, today, this just appeared (see attachments).

It's a small, lilac-purple smudge in the lower right hand corner. It doesn't move when the screen moves, and the touchscreen still works just fine. You can also still see images below it, it just tints them purple. It's less visible when the screen is brighter, but still kind of there.

I have turned it off an on again, turned it off and removed the battery, and left it off for a while to cool down. It was still there when I turned the phone back on.

As far as I know there is no water damage, and I don't believe it has been in contact with any magnets (apart from the mini one that clasps the case shut). I'm completely baffled! Is it a defect, or something I've somehow managed to cause? I've tried to be very careful, as I know what a klutz I am! :P The phone is also not rooted or hacked in any way.

If anyone has any thoughts or advice, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you very much :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muhamet:
I think is magnet
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emiloo:
I wondered the same thing, but I left it on a table next to my bed overnight and it seems to have gotten worse - the purple has spread further on to the screen. :confused:

It will get progressively worse even if magnet is no where near now.

The purple tint on the entire screen is definitely a defect... get it changed from the Samsung Service Centre! Even I had this problem and my phone atm is at the Service Centre...

[General Questions and Answers] CasperKruger:
Evening Guys / Gals

Right I've been scratching my head on this one for days now and it seems that no one for some bizarre reason ever came across this issue before. OK I'm a bit of a Noob when it comes to Android but I manage to get my head around things pretty fast.

Anyhow My issue. I have an Archos (Arnova 10b - 8GB) tablet Yeah its a cheap one but thought it would be better than buying a kindle... What I'm trying to do is to stream Videos over my network using PLEX ver 2.0.0.6 and the latest Plex Media server

My PC is a Windows 7 x64-bit system and My Archos is still running the Official 2.1 Eclair Firmware. I did mod it at one point with the kasty-arn10b-22-01 FW but the Archos did not behave very well on it so I had to revert back to stock FW.

(I could not find a stable Version of Froyo for it yet so if you do have any suggestions, and I mean any suggestions at all (without Bricking it) --- PLEASE let me know)

So the Plex Media server is running on my PC and I can see and browse my Videos with ease from the Archos tablet using the Plex 2.0.0.6 App. However when I try to run any .avi or mvk files on the Archos it seems to load and buffer the video fine but eventually fails on me with the following error:

Unexpected error while trying to play media item at: <MYIP>:32400/Video/:Transcode/Segment/Start -> and which seems to be allot of information about the type of file and coding it tried to use.

Now I do believe that this is a codec issues and was able to pull the logcat from my Archos - The Full Text file is attached for those that are interested.

What interested me was the following:

D/c*.p*.a*.v*.PlexVideoV*( 1673): Transitioning from INITIALIZED to ERROR.

E/VideoPlayerActivity( 1673): Error when trying to display media : There was a problem accessing or playing the media. It may be that this is not a supported format on this device.

I/c*.p*.a*.v*.PlexVideoV*( 1673): Stopping video transcode session.

I know it works on Froyo I've tested it on my Previously modded Archos and a Samsung Galaxy Mini. But is not able to get this to work on Eclair :confused:

Other then modding it back to an unstable version of Froyo... Do you guys have any ideas how I might be able to resolve this debacle??

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Raptor1956:
OK, I'm getting close to dropping the hammer on a Note but I do have a few questions. One of the good things about buying an unlocked phone is that it doesn't have all the carrier crapware on it, but when ICS comes out how do we get the ICS update? That is, if I buy an imported one and activate on ATT how will my update for ICS get to me? If it comes via the carrier aren't you also going to wind up with a crapware laden version from the carrier?

I could not root my previous Android phone (HTC EVO 4G) because it was paid for by my company and they had some level of control over it. I now have a company provided iP4 that I can't jail-break but when I get the Note rooting is then an option though I don't plan to root right away. So, if you don't root how will I get ICS without the carrier bloat?

Brian
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] xAnimal5:
The Note ships with no bloat and ICS is coming soon to us.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] GuestX0057:
Through Samsung's own crapware called Kies. It's downloadable from samsungs webpage.

It works for me but some people with Win7 64bit have reportedly had problems with it. If you have Kies (and get it to recognize your Note) you can also download Kies air from samsung apps on your Note and update through wifi.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Raptor1956:
OK, so you do NOT have to go through the carrier for the update to ICS, you use the Kies app. I have a number of old and new laptops I could use ranging from XP Pro to Win7-64. If there are issues with Win7-64 I guess I'll use an older laptop to do the update.

But, just to be clear, are the updates using Kies downloaded to the laptop first then transferred to the phone or is there an OTA part to this

Thanks,

Brian
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] GuestX0057:
Yes I can confirm that no carrier involvement when updating unlocked devices. Kies will provide all the upgrades in the future including ICS at some point.

As far as I know when you update via Kies air, it doesn't download to the laptop (though it might use cache memory temporarily). I can't give a 100% answer because I've never paid that much attention when updating :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] graemeg:
ICS

Your upgrade will come from Samsung themselves thru KIES, not sure when its been rolled out over there but were expected to get it here in the UK in the first 3 months of 2012, to the galaxy s 2 and the Note, It is only been rolled out to dual core devices as far as im aware.

The note upgrade is not carrier specific and is unbranded regardless of network, Although word tp the wise, the roms are quite hefty weighing in at roughly half a gig for a full download, so if the full ics is made avail, i believe it will be 4.03, on sammobile, make sure ya download it and keep it safe, or use a cfroot kernel and do a nandroid of the stock ICS before altering anything.

strange but i have no problem connecting my Gnote to my hp hdx16 running win 7 64 bit. just dowload lates version of kies.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlewis19:
This is my first Gingerbread rom. I had been running Virtuous for months but it became unstable. Probably due to a bad app I loaded here or there.

With this ROM, my wifi signal drops off, then switches to 3g, then back again in a matter of seconds. This can be even when I'm a few feet away from my router. I've tried different radio's, but it hasn't helped.

Another issue I've noticed, and this appears to be mainly cosmetic, is related to the pattern unlock screen. I get a bunch of random characters at the top just under the time. Like '%1$2, %2$2 %3$2, $4$2 - %6$1.'

Anyone else have these problems? Is this the right place to mention it?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snow580:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznprodgy:
try several different kernels for the ROM you are using. the more updated kernels usually have a volume boost feature, and raises the default volume levels. also, give the PlayerPro app a shot if youre a music buff. you can download the DSP pack along with it and tweak the sound settings to your own preference, and you can also raise the preamp levels in the EQ to make the music louder/crisper

Use the 1mb bootloader file. It's fast, and you can run through the fastboot commands to check for sure.

[Acer Iconia A500] Umtympnerd:
Hi guys so I have a problem.

I downgraded my OTA 3.2 upgrade via "Method 2" which i'm sure you all know about. (Download update.zip and then flash to 3.0.1 and root)

Then I installed the LightSpeed 1.0.7 ROM and I flashed Thor v3.9R3 Kernel (for stock 3.2) and rebooted my device.

It works great only problem is I can't overclock which is what I wanted to do in the first place. I open setCPU and then go to "voltages" section yet it just force closes on me. I can't do anything about it.

What should I do? Install a different ROM and reflash the kernel? Or maybe flash a different kernel? Please help guys cause I really want to overclock it to around 1.4.... :)

PS Newbie here so don't rage :)
[Acer Iconia A500] bwassef:
well the ROM has nothing to do with overclocking the tablet. it is the kernel. i have never tried thor's kernel, I use taboonay's and it works wonders on my tablet. I would recommend it to you because it works and i can overclock to 1.64. try reflashing the kernel you have now. if that doesnt work, try another kernel
[Acer Iconia A500] Umtympnerd:
So would that mean the Taboonay v3.7? I tried that b4 flashing thor's and it didnt let me overclock. What else? Sorry for the stupid questions...
[Acer Iconia A500] Umtympnerd:
Also, I meant it says, setCPU has stopped unexpectedly.
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
Do you still have root? Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing kernel?

p.s. by the way Tabooney is a ROM name. Richardtrip's kernel is named "Villain iconia kernel".
[Acer Iconia A500] sagaspeed:
either Toobany or Lightspeed, you can try to install Villain_iconia_kernel 3.7, this package will overclock your current ROM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nerdman:
Hello people,

This is my first post here, so I hope I am putting this in the right place. If not, sorry, please move it.

Anyway, as you all are aware, ICS source code was released a couple days ago, so I decided that I would see if I could begin constructing a ROM based off AOSP for the G2x.

As predicted, it did not go well. I pulled the build makefiles and the like from CyanogenMod (hope that's okay), and tried to use those as device-specific build instructions. I got everything to compile with no errors, and the ROM successfully installed, but does not boot.

Best I can tell, the phone gets through the kernel boot alright, but halts at the "A N D R O I D" screen (no boot animation file is included). The touch panel seems to be responsive.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] nerdman:
Okay, so I tested the idea of changing the bootclasspath in init.rc, and it didn't seem to be helping much. In fact, it may have hindered things. Before the modifications, the phone would finish going through the two lg splash screens. Now, it hangs on the second. Suspect bad merge of ramdisk and kernel. But as for now, sleep is calling. I will work on it more tomorrow.

And I'm glad I can be of help. :) If you would like, I could throw what I have on megaupload, see if what I have is valuable.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
You don't have ICS built device drivers and the kernel needs to be built for ICS. If you do not get it to boot nothing will work except maybe the touchscreen if you are lucky.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nerdman:
Right. Device drivers. But we were able to port Gingerbread to this device with Froyo drivers, yes? What about compiling the ICS kernel source (if it is out) for the G2x. Would that yield any kind of results?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
This is sounding a lot like the Hackintosh driver hacks, which I've done, to get the Mac OS to run on PC hardware of various kinds. In that world, drivers from previous iterations and versions of the Mac OS are merged into the Mac OS to enable various PC hardware which Apple didn't support in the new OS version. One example is the video drivers which Apple supplies for very few video cards but have been hacked to run other, non-supported video cards. As well, Apple is notorious because it orphans perfectly useable and upgradeable Apple Mac hardware by not providing video drivers for it in new releases of the Mac OS. When Mac OS 10.7 was released some people used the Mac OS 10.6 hacked and/or unhacked video drivers and hacked video drivers for OS 10.7 to keep their PC display hardware working. Keep trying.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nerdman:
