Hi I tried to install this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1296330 and all went well and it was too slow so i wanted to go back to the original rom then I installed the rooted custom rom again as instructed,but now I'm having trouble with tablet rebooting it self.Even when I press the power button.and even when I try to connect to wifi.I would like to get rid of this problem and try to install Gingerbread.

Oh yeah, make sure the ROM you flash is compatible with your device. GSM and CDMA are very different.

I haven't used them but they seem correct.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
All apps are running in an rather isolated VM environment, with NO access to the system.

The little access the app gets granted, you get told upon installing it.

So, basically all you need is a deep breath, "does this app really this or that permission, and if so, what for?"

Also choose and use root apps with care, and you're save.

I flashed the Deodexed .596 onto my phone back when it came out. Is there anything newer to flash too? I have constant problems with .596 it is terrible, it lags like crazy, will literally stop responding to my inputs for 30 seconds randomly reboot it just never ends.

I do use Launcher Pro and have nothing but problems sometime I will go to my app drawer and it will be empty etc. I have had to put some of my shortcuts on my main screen since sometimes I cant get them from app drawer. Half the time when it boots it crashes LP and Force Closes it.

Any help would be great.
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
The latest OTA version is .605.

I would recommend SBFing to .596 (just to be safe) then taking the OTA. This will make sure that everything is right where it's supposed to be.
[Droid X General] Nemo Aeternamn:
The newest sbf is actually 602... You can do that... And no real need to ota to 605... In my opinion anyways... because the only real difference is a keyboard fix for the stock keyboard

Post script: 602 is way better then 596... I wasn't able to stand that build... Or even the roms that were based off of it

We have nothing to feat but running out of beer
[Droid X General] Hawk777th:
Is there a Rom I can flash to get to .602?
[Droid X General] Jubakuba:
If you have either premium versions of Rom Manager or Rom Toolbox from the android market...

There are .zips to take you from any kernel up to .602.

You'll have to do that or SBF to 602 (my recommendation) before flashing any 602/605 based rom.

Which phone is better?
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
http://bit.ly/uxIpRm
[HTC Sensation] Vipeout:
The iphone is better, undoubtedly! Oh no wait, it's the Sensation. :rolleyes: I'm sure most people in a sensation forum will vote for the iphone though...

Btw what is better, Coke or Pepsi? Maybe I should write CocaCola and ask them...
[HTC Sensation] pyromatic18:
Are you sure everyone would prefer an iPhone? I for one love my sensation and would never go back to ios!
[HTC Sensation] Jackos:
Damn, there is no best phone. Just the way the best rom does not exist.

In my personal opinion Sensation is better for tech savvy people. iPhones are easy to use, but don't allow so much customization. When it comes to hardware, they're pretty same - Sensation has got a faster processor, more ram... etc, while iPhone has got a way better camera and screen.

If we look at the price Sensation is clearly the winner.

[HTC Sensation] shadow666:
If you love apps, games all that kind of stuff than iPhone, thats why I sold my iphone and instead got me an ipod touch 4thG to keep all my apps, games and music, my Sensation is just my phone which I love!
[HTC Sensation] leyus:
Sensation !

More configurable

Cheaper (Iphone is so overpiced)

Although because all current custom aosp ROM-s are so bad I am not happy about my Sensation, stock ROM is also kind of faulty. I would always choose android over iphone system because of rooting and many other things but I paid lots of money for phone which at the moment is simply less functional then HTC Desire from my viewpoint.

But again question is again: coke or pepsi, you might see it differently then I do.

[HTC Sensation] lorddart:
Yeah... Sensation wins for me. No doubt i've got some beef with sensation freezes and such. Which I'm told iphone is 'more reliable' and also the software work beautifully with the hardware. But as something I utilize everyday I couldn't stand the screen size or lockdown apple does. I too have an ipod touch 4g for my app needs... 32g although I'm considering selling that too...
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
My wife has iPhone 4 and My Dad has iPhone 4S. Whenever they have a problem regarding howto they always ask come to me even though I don't own an iPhone. after playing with their iPhone I find that android system is easier to use because of widgets and such. For example: to turn on wifi on iPhone, you have to go to settings>>wifi and slide the slider to on or off. With android, you can have a widget right on the home screen to toggle wifi on/off. Another example is conditional call forwarding. If you want to activate conditional call forwarding like, forward call when unreachable. with ios you have to enter codes or dial *62*[another phone number]# and tap “Call”. There is no setting for it like android does.

[HTC Sensation] Kaym69:
After all it is absolutely subjective. I know some people having an iPhone and are satisfied with it and dont want to change to another.

I changed from iPhone to Sensation and for me the Sensation or rather the Android OS is much better.

[HTC Sensation] fandroid93:
I went from a G1 to an iPhone 2g to an iPhone 3g to an iPhone 3GS and then to a Nexus one. Since then, I have never looked back :)

IMHO Android is far better than any iPhone. I loved my iPhone but I dumped her as soon as the Nexus One came out. I got it January 5th, the day it was released. Since then I have had a G2, MT4G, LG G2x, and now the Sensation.

Its all personal preference but when you ask me, I will tell you to think correctly, not differently.
[HTC Sensation] lostman004:
I think its just personal preference. I just switched from the Sensation to the iPhone 4S last week and there are definately pros and cons for each phone.

The thing I miss most about the Sensation was the screen size, but the iPhone's screen is definately better than the Sensation screen.

As far as OS's, again its a matter of personal preferences. I liked widgets in Android and I also loved that I could tweak almost every aspect...

At the same time...iOS is virtually lag free, No force closes, etc.

At the end of the day I switched because I found myself wasting so much time flashing roms and tweaking things. The other reason is that Im an independant music and the iOS music apps are leaps and bounds ahead of the Android music apps. No latency whatsoever.
[HTC Sensation] kayosinc:
My opinion:HTC Sensation wins hands down (for me).

Why ? : I wanted customising, home screen data, wanted something that not everyone has, bigger screen than 3.5 inches, something that was not from "APPLE".

IPhone has games ,mail, customisation, great resale and all but it simply did not appeal to me.

Here is the completely stock ROM image for the GSM Galaxy Nexus, version ITL41F. It is not rooted, if you wish to root after installing use my Superboot. System and boot images are included, recovery and baseband are not. The baseband version for ITL41F is the same (XXKK1) as ITL41D, which is posted in this topic if required.

I know this will be useful to anyone wishing to revert their phone to get a future OTA, to chefs wanting to base a ROM on it etc. etc., so here it is.

To install, flash this update zip via ClockworkMod.

Can I just ask - is there a reason the recovery image isn't included?

I was just wondering if it there was a specific reason why people haven't been posting it?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] afilopou:
As far as i know this not touching your recovery.You must lock the bootloader in order to have stock recovery.You must root it again and install rom manager to access it through UI enviroment.I dont know for sure how you can access it with button combination (i think middle volume and power button)

Check my answer

I think your problem is cwm recovery and not the root.You must lock the bootloader in order to have stock recovery.After that the update can installed succesfully

From cwm reflash the rom after full wipe. If that does not work than redownload cause it might have been corrupt while downloading.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lskohn:
Sometime after 11/21/11, when TI last backed it up, I lost swype (ver.2.9.51.13423) off my Captivate. I have located the backup, but have several questions.

1. When I try to restore the most recent backup, TI takes FOREVER (30 minutes and counting at this point). How long should it take? I set it to restore only the app, not the data, after seeing how long it was taking but it's still going. Do I have to do something special because this is a system app (is it a system app?)?

2. Should I switch to swype beta? I have rooted the phone and have TI and other tools, but I'm a basic newbie, and don't know anything about CWM, ROM Manager, etc. that I have read are necessary to apply the beta. I'm good at following directions, however, slightly reckless, and willing to switch if there's good reason to do so.

3. Finally - why did I lose swype to begin with? I did use a Thailand-based SIM card while in Bangkok last week, but would that have uninstalled swype?? (I did a backup before switching SIM cards.)
