This might sound dumb but I am a new Android user and I have to ask - would flashing the rom have any effect on the apps already installed? I have already installed about 300 apps and I am planning to install more apps, including office suites. I am currently on Gingerbread 2.3.6, and if I flash the rom to ICS, would all those apps still work, or is the compatibility dependent on the app itself and not the OS version?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jonesses:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I just read, that Samsung confirmed that they are updating the note to ics in Q1 2012. That could be March...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] reinbeau:
You'll have to back up all of those apps and your data so first thing to do would be to root it, so you can buy Titanium Backup, it's the best way to make a complete backup. Then, after you install whatever custom ROM you want, you can restore just apps and data (never system data).

I will say, that's an awful lot of apps, do you really need them all? I did the same thing when I came to Android. I've started to toss the ones I don't really use.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Sunil_k:
Thanks for this! Will wait for it :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rishikanta:
Not really. I am just toying with all sorts of apps and games. I have already started removing some of the unwanted ones :)

So, when I install a new ROM, all these apps will go and I actually have to restore them from a backup? Or is it just a usual backup in the sense that I can restore them if something happens to go wrong? If it is the second case, I might just go ahead and do without a complete backup. I don't have that much phone-specific data anyways. Most of the apps I can reinstall, and all the music and videos are also on my PC.

Correct me if IM wrong... q1 COULD be January! Just because it says q1 doesn't mean it'll be on the last day of q1... right? How do the quarters work? Does q1 start on Jan 1st?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Braxos:
Q1 means WE DON'T KNOW when, so we say 3months period if we can't get it in this period some heads will fall. I would say they will released it at 30 February for sure don't remember where I saw it but s2 will get it first then the note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DeKubus:
I honestly don't think so^^
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rootuser11:
30 on February?!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Braxos:
See what I mean I give you a date but you are cranky with it that's why they say Q1. So people like you don't whine when they can't release it in that time period.

Sorry I wanted to explain the point of there Q1 announce people are jumping to the train to fast they don't even read whole sentences just few words the eye catchers.

Just check http://global.samsungtomorrow.com/?p=8894

And see the comments people are "sheep's" on says something the rest follows they don't read "and other GALAXY devices will soon follow" aga ouga me neanderthal, me smash, burn.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DeKubus:
Yeah, be cocky towards other people... But first:

1) Open a calendar (doesn't matter which one)

2) Open February

3) Search for the 30th

4) ...

5) PROFIT!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Carmageddon1984:
LOL did anyone at all, noticed that 30th on February, DOES NOT EXIST? :D:D:D

AHAHAHAHA

So uhm, yeah it wont be released AT 30th February :)

Why dont you guys stop playing pointless guessing games.. we'll all hear when it happens - stop generating reply notification emails please...

And on something unrelated - what is the fastest way to uninstall an application? I hate having to go into the Settings menu, etc looking for it to uninstall :(

However I dont want Go Launcher, I like the Samsung one its pretty cool.

So how to easily uninstall apps?

Also, how did you organize them?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] robertsydbrink:
I took an arrow to the knee on 30 Februari.

And I want ICS to my Note before I take an arrow to my other knee.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] betoNL:
Q1 is better then Q2 anyway....

But with samsung, you never know :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Thor:
I'm pretty sure they said Q1 because they are working on it now, But have no set date, But they know it will be done by the end of Q1.

I would guess end of January to mid February. Assuming there are no set back with the build.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] henke2:
Why wait for ICS when Jello will be comeing Q2 2013 ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] xAnimal5:
Official Samsung ICS is probably gonna have touchwiz, so this port is gonna be better than the official ICS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] reinbeau:
When you install a custom ROM, most of the time (I'm pretty sure all of the time, but I'm hedging my bets ;))it's what's called a 'wipe'. Everything is wiped, the new ROM is installed, and you restore your apps/data from a backup. Many people do restore apps one by one. In my case I use the phone for business, so my data is extremely important, which is why I use TiBu. Coming from the Palm world, where everything was safe on my PC - it was a learning experience here on Android :eek:

We've wandered off topic here with this discussion. Back on topic:

Guys, keep it civil. One of the problems with these types of threads is that no one really knows anything about any timeline. Arguing amongst yourselves results in contention, which turns to flaming, and then the thread is closed. So, exchange information politely.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rishikanta:
Thanks Ann.

I really hope the ICS port comes out sooner than later. I certainly do not want to wait till the official Samsung release, whether it is January 1 or March 31. ;)

Hey guys i was flashing a KDZ File for gingerbread official.

but my pc crashed and forced its self to shut down during the process

and now my phone is stuck i cant even turn on.

i am trying the unbrick method on this forum using flashtool but its failing at at 22%

and when it gets to 22% my phone connects and dissconnects about 2 - 3 times i can here the usb notification noise and after the 3rd noise i get a little vibration on my phone

the last message in the log is

OMAP factory download fail
[LG Optimus 3D] fartaway:
Did you try this one?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1287236

When I soft-bricked my O3D (I uninstalled too many important system apps :D), I downloaded the modded flash tool (first link), unzipped it, installed msxml.msi and started UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe. Of course, the drivers were already installed before this.

Before step 3, I removed the battery and put it in again. Then I held the Vol+ button while plugging in the usb cable and let go when Windows recognized the device. (When I tried to plug it in without battery, the OMAP device went on and off every two seconds.)

Then I did step 3 and the phone was successfully flashed with the stock rom in 5 minutes.

Somewhere I read, that the PhoneMode CS_EMERGENCY would be the mode for totally bricked phones. But I can't remember where, I think it was from some of these XDA-like LG fanboy sites.

I hope this helps.
[LG Optimus 3D] anduios:
it happened to me on several tries, could not turn power phone on. Then i unplug battery and plug it back in seem to get back power on and retry the process again (kdz method)

[Xperia Play General] xrishox:
isn't n64oid based on mupen64plus anyways? i thought the only difference what the removal of sdl, a gui and an input plugin.
[Xperia Play General] bubblegumballoon:
Mupen64plus-AE and n64oid are both built off of the emulator Mupen64plus. Both mupen64plus-AE and n64oid have slight different features from each other but keep in mind n64oid had been developed for alot longer so thats why it has some more stuff. Also Paul kept Mupen open source so if he ever decides to stop adding to it then any other developer can pick it and and continue where he left off, N64oid is closed source so if yonghz ever stops updating it that means it will never get any more updates ever since hes the only one with the code.

Yeah, I know the Wpa key is encoded and thus not readable... But hang on, there's more to come.

At our work we use Symbol Mc7090 pda's which connect to the wifi network. The Mc7090's are setup with Symbol pocket browser 2.0 and symscript running on WM 5.

Recently I copied the contents of the Mc70 with a clone program to my own Mc70.

So far, so good. My personal device perfectly connects to the wifi network at my work, and I can use all functions and programs on the pda.

The other day I discovered that mostly all of the software the pda uses is webbased. So in fact it can be used with all devices that can make a connection to the wifi network.

Cool! what if I can find the Wpa key and enter it into my Ipad? That would be rather nice wouldn't it...

I started to dig into the guts of the pda:

When starting "Wireless launch" - Manage profiles - I can see the profile Wise.

This is the right profile. When I try to edit this profile I can see the ESSID (which I already found and tried to connect with my Ipad), Encryption is TKIP and passkey is ************. I expected that.

I installed PocketAsterisk, but this tiny prog isn't showing anything else then the damn asterisks....

So this is going nowhere...

back to "wireless launch".

When choosing options, there's "export". Here you can choose between "Export options" & "Export all profiles".

When choosen both options you get 2 files: WCS_PROFILES.reg & WCS_OPTIONS.reg.

I kinda expected to find a hex key or similar in either one of these files. But was I wrong or... I attached both files.... It must contain the key as far as I know.

Who can help me? Is it possible to find the key, or not? Am I wasting my time?:confused:
