NEVER select a pit file or select re-partition. I mean it. NEVER. You will brick your phone. Make sure you do not do this.

[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
I know this has probably been asked plenty of times, but I'm bored of cyanogenmod (again) and wanted people's opinions on the best as we seem to be getting a lot of official support now. Which sense rom is your favourite and reasons why please?

I've had my fun with ICS and am now waiting for a stable release so no ICS recommendations for ICS please.
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
Choice of ROM is a very personal thing but at the moment I am using Endymion v3 and am extremely happy with it. It just seems to work, and I use it heavily for work - Bluetooth, Wireless, Calls, SMS, Camera, GPS etc
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
I've seen Endymion as the best choice and I would've switched back to it but the list has grown since I flashed Endymion which is why I wanted to know which people prefer now.
[HTC Desire S] gordo79:
Another vote for Endymion very nice rom with great support,even though I'm on aosp oxygen at the moment as it absolutely flys.
[HTC Desire S] det66:
I'm Endymion V3 and just wouldn't consider anything else to be honest .The help and support lowveld gives is amazing
[HTC Desire S] apx@dwx:
i also use endymion v3 if i had the delight to use sense :P
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
I use Endymion 2.2 with the fixes from 3.0. I only like the stock look, so don't feel the need to theme and lose 200+mb.

It's all personal preference!
[HTC Desire S] det66:
But my actual system memory has gone up from 23mb to 73.7mb and even with all my crap on it still have 300mb Internal free
[HTC Desire S] campbs:
Another vote for Endymion here, awesome ROM.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
+1

same here........I hope that you're now downloading it!
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Wow so nothing has changed I see! Downloading now. Thanks guys
[HTC Desire S] lokiloki:
+1 to endymion v3 here too!! great sense 3.5 rom, excellent battery life and awesome tweaks!

The only gripe I have is the the sense 3.5 dockbar, I find it ugly and somewhat blown up, especially with the text (applications, personalization)

kept changing between the two-button bliss bar and stock 3.5 bar and couldn't settle on either

hope someone would make a sense 3.0 /2.1 dockbar mod for it!!
[HTC Desire S] shrike011:
Is there a way to sense 3.5 rom has a normal font for the screen of our Desire S? Small fonts is something that annoys me a lot, and see how Rhyme rom only has something like that, but it seems that unfortunately proxuser left development of the Rom :/
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
My problem too :p

I hate the small fonts, but I've started to get used to them in 3.5 now..
[HTC Desire S] shrike011:
I still cant get used, a small font spoil the visual appearance of the entire rom
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yeh.. I sort of got used to it now though :p

However when I went to use a Desire S in the store again, 2.1 sense, the icons and fonts were massive!! I was like wow!!

Also I used the Sensation XL, and sense 3.5 looks lovely on it, the icons are all giant and easy to see!
[HTC Desire S] shrike011:
So, i have to buy a phone with larger screen now ? ;)
[HTC Desire S] lokiloki:
I have exactly the same sentiments when I flashed Sense 3.0 roms :p, especially the menu and settings fonts!!

still am using Sense 3.5 as my daily rom
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Hyperion is based on the OTA though, so its got big fonts :D
[HTC Desire S] shrike011:
AFAIK Hyperion is Sense 3.0 rom, not 3.5, right?

Is it normal for the back of the phone (around camera) and the screen to get warm when using the phone?

Nothing strange in battery stats, I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Highland3r:
see the same under load, so yup sounds normal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qreffie:
I've not had an android phone that didn't get warm while I was using it and I'm on my 4th one now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FastMhz:
Mine was a bit warm as well last night but I was downloading over 4G, texting, browsing and navigation..

But after I stopped it cooled down in like a minute or so.

My Nexus One got RIDICULOUSLY hot during navigation ALONE. Then the touchscreen would go haywire.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] listairee:
Any phones will tend to get warm during use. And looking at your screenshot, that's a normal load. Nothing to worry about. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rockdefense:
I did a Google search for the same problem and got to this thread. I just got my Nexus yesterday and the top right hand side of the phone (I'm assuming that's where the Wi-Fi antenna is) got quite hot about 20 minutes into activating my device.

My phone downloaded about 600mb worth data over that period (downloading apps from the Market) so I assume that was the issue and didn't know if the phone was supposed to get this hot. I've been using the wi-fi sparingly since (no heavy data download) and it is not that hot now. Just wanted to share.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
Mine also gets warm there, I assume it has alot to do with the modem as even if my screen is off and the phone is just acting as a hotspot, that area gets fairly warm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jpalo:
I remember my Nexus S get warm sometimes, but very rarely and there was always a good reason for that (heavy downloading, buggy ROM, buggy app in some loop).

Thanks for the replies!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] f0x0r:
Hi all,

Was hoping you might be able to help I bought a Galaxy Nexus yesterday and have been looking at screen protectors, but im not sure which to get. On my old HTC Desire I had an invisible sheild and im able to also get a martin fields one. So what do people suggest?

Or what else are people using and can recommend?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Eattheirdead:
I have an InvisibleSHIELD on my Nexus and it fits great. Goes edge to edge and there are no bubbles. The cut outs are perfect and it really is invisible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
I also have an InvisibleShield and it is great. I installed and after 2 days no more bubbles at all. I am curious though, how come some of the other screen protectors out there (SGP, etc.) do not leave the area around the front facing camera lense clear of any screen protector film. When you look at the front facing camera there appear to be two small lenses to the left of the front facing camera? What are those for and why did Zagg not want to cover those and some other screen protector manufacturers did?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darrendm:
Hi, just a query on the Zagg screen protector.

I haven't used one since about 4 years ago on my Samsung Omnia, and I thought that it felt "sticky", where you couldn't really glide your finger over it as smooth as some other screen protectors?

Is this still the case? How is the feel compared to the bare screen?

Try these before you buy the more expensive ones

They are fabulous

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] showstopper1:
hi guys dis s d tutorial for flashing d stock firmware on a dead or bricked x10 mini.....

NOTE: THIS PROCESS WILL RELOCK UR BOOTLOADER AND ROOT WILL BE GONE

Step 1: Download Sony Ericsson update service software (SEUS) http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/supp...ro?cc=gb&lc=en

Step 2: Install it and open it

Step 3: Now do a hot reboot on the device by pressing and holding both the menu and power keys at the same time

Step 4: Without wasting even a single second press and hold the back button and connect your USB cable while holding Back

Step 5: Do not release the back key until the SEUS identifies your device. When it identifies your device, the update option will appear on your screen.

(It may say that you have a latest firmware already, but you click repair anyway and after the operation starts, You may release your back key.

Step 6: Wait until the update process gets finished and reboot your device now you will have a stock firmware with locked bootloader

feel free to hit thanks if this helped you.. :)

Missing "REPAIR" option in SE Update Service

SE Update Service ver.: 2.12.5.57 (last)

Kernel: nAa kernel

ROM: MiniCM7

There is no "REPAIR" option (see attachment).

It was in older version only? Who knows?

Or does anyone know another way to get back to stock ROM and kernel from the kernel and naa MiniCM7 ROM?

I claim my phone. So I need the original state.

THNX a LOT!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
The repair option in PC Companion is a bit hidden, mine is in dutch but i try to show you the steps you have to take.

See screenshot 1, support zone, click start

See screenshot 2, update phone software, click start

See screenshot 3, phone not found (or you have the latest firmware), click the repair link

The repair link is not there if you choose update from the mainscreen in SEUS.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] realmattez:
This desnt work. I have got almost standard conditions

Your screenshots are from Sony PC Companion

But there is talk about Sony Ericsson update service software (SEUS)

Nevertheless I try your way. I found "Repair" link. I walk thru all steps, but It shows "No software available" (it was looking more like "update" then "repair") (see attachment). And then redirect me to homepage of PC Companion (with no chance to Repair).

I have got standard conditions:

Sony XPERIA X10 mini (E10i)

with

Kernel: nAa kernel (last version)

ROM: MiniCM7 (last version)

PC Companion Version: 2.10.053 (last)

SE Update Service (SEUS) Version: 2.11.12.5 (last)

THIS SOLUTION STILL DOESNT WORK FOR ME (I THINK FOR ANYBODY WITH SAME CONDITIONS)

Please help. I'm starting to be clueless :/

Thanx a lot.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
I have edited my post, it is PC Companion ofcourse...

What steps did the repair option make you take? with me it is:

1. you will lose all your data, agree...

2. computer will be prepared, choose your model - x10 mini

3. it will tell you how to enter flash-mode (unplug, shut down, press back, plug in)

4. it will download the firmware and flash it to the phone

5. disconnect the phone and restart

as far as i know, the repair option doesn't care what phone you have, or what software it runs, it trusts you to select the right model, and itself to find the right firmware for that, no other checks are performed, it just flashes it.

PS: I was on nAa-08 and GingerDX this time, especially for this post i have flashed back to stock. i have bricked my phone a few times when i tried flashing custom roms and it always worked this way for me, even if you are on stock firmware it will still flash it again.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] niksa09:
is it possible that my mobile SIM is not recognized after bootloader relock in s1tool?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
If it was still working after you unlocked the bootloader, then relocking it probably won't break it.

If it stopped working after you unlocked the bootloader, then relocking might restore it.

In any case make sure you're on stock firmware before you relock.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marios199546:
guys i have a bricked mini with stocked firmware i connect it with seus and it says that i have the latest firmware but it doesnt appear the repair button ! Whats can i do /
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
leave your phone unplugged when you choose update, and only plug it in when it asks to connect in flashmode. It can't recognise your phone when it's unplugged and should give you the repair option, if SEUS doesn't do that, download PC Companion, that will do it.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marios199546:
but the pc companion need the phone to be turned on and my phone doesnt turn on

---------- Post added at 10:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 AM ----------

i follow your instructions and again nothing
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
So, what is wrong with your phone then? is your battery dead?

When you start PC Companion and you don't have your phone plugged in, you do the following:

Choose update

It will say: Phone not recognised (or something like that) and in that dialog there is a little blue link saying Repair. Click on it.

It will tell you you will lose all user data, accept that

It will ask you to select your phone-model from a list

It will download the firmware for that phone.

It will ask you to connect your phone in flash-mode (press the back-button, plug in the usb-cable, the led will turn green, the dialog will disappear and it will start flashing.

No need to turn on your phone at all, but it needs some charge in the battery in order to successfully complete the flash (normally a charge of over 50% is recommended to be safe)

I would recommend Xperia Play, I love the UI, way better than stock Ginglebread and TouchWiz/Sense, in my opinion. My first option would be Xperia Play, but you don't like the UI. But you can install CM7. Or wait for ICS for it. It almost on the corner.

But as a second option, Nexus S.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hykhleif:
hey guys i am starting to loose it here

this is the situation, i have a sg2 and its rooted 2.3.6 stock rom.

now i have about 100 installed app, and I bought titanium back up and at one time I moved all user apps to sd card to clear some memory. That caused a big problem for me which manifested in that when I connect my phone to my computer or car stereo that once I unplug the usb cable or disconnect it from my computer the phone turns off and reboots. It drove me crazy I thought maybe its an app thats causing this, in the end i had to move all user apps to internal storage using titanium and the problem faded. I tried it both using USB debugging mode on and off.

So my question is whats the use of titanium or app2sd if it will cause this problem when i move apps, and how can i know which app will cause such a weird rebooting behavior, as I am not comfortable in having all user apps on my internal storage.

ANY help would be really appreciated. And an explanation to why such a behavior happens so that I will learn more about android systems
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzureusPT:
The explanation is simple. If you connect your phone to PC or whatever via USB and toggle "Mass Storage Mode", you dismount the SD Card from Android OS and mount it for the PC or where you've plugged the phone. This way Android OS can't access anything on the SD card, thus failing to load/run any app there.

To move them to SD, I will use the app options you can find in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications. If the application has the option to move to the SD, then is safe to move it without problems. If the application doesn't have that option and you move it, you could compromise the Android OS stability (depending on the app).

App2SD uses a separate partition on the SD to store the app, that way you can mount the external_sd partition without touching the App2SD partition.

Hope this explanation helped!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty warrior:
do u toggle mass storage ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hykhleif:
could also live wallpapers cause a problem with what I mentioned above.

I usually connect my phone via the following

wireless and network, then usb utilities then press connect to storage PC

So how can I fix my situation now, it all started when I used titanium to move user apps to sd card,

So if I use titantium to move back the apps to internal storage solve the problem completely and then follow you method of moving apps.

Another question is moving apps using titanium doing something different than what app2sd is doing?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzureusPT:
App2SD doesn't do the same as Titanium Backup move to SD. App2SD creates a symbolic link so the system thinks the apps are being stored in internal memory but the link redirects them to the SD card.

You could try restoring your moved apps from Titanium Backup and then applying an App2SD script. Remember that to make App2SD work you will need 2 partitions on your SD card.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hykhleif:
I am still confused as to How that works, I wish someone would write a detailed guide as many of us r newbie users. So do I have also to Partition my sd if I will move apps to sd using the move to sd option from the phone settings- manage applications.

It's so confusing the difference between moving apps using titanium and app2sd, also how can I partition the sd card.

Also could live wallpapers and widgets cause a USB connection mode instability
[Kindle Fire Android Development] llcooljayce:
Hey guys,

This is my first time using an Android device so I am not experienced with the Android Market but this seems messed up.

I am using the Android Market on a rooted Kindle Fire. When I try to download any app (free or otherwise), it shows at 'Downloading'. The app will not actually download until I go online with my PC to the Android Market and choose to download the same app. Once that happens, the app shows up on my Kindle Fire.

Is this normal or is there some sort of setting that I need to tweak? Thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] llcooljayce:
Also .. is there any way to make the Android Market the default market rather than the Amazon market?

For example, when I go to install a Dolphin HD plugin, it looks for it in the Amazon Kindle Market which doesn't work because I'm in Canada.
