what needs to be edited in the build prop
[Captivate General] TheChefSLC:
Because I felt like it.

Here is what needs to be edited in the file.

ro.build.id=GINGERBREAD
ro.build.display.id=GWK74
ro.build.version.incremental=XXJVO
ro.build.tags=release-keys
ro.product.model=SGH-I897
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=SGH-I897
ro.product.device=SGH-I897
ro.product.board=SGH-I897

# ro.build.product is obsolete; use ro.product.device
ro.build.product=SGH-I897

# Samsung Specific Properties <----added this whole section to my build prop.
ro.build.PDA=I9000XXJVO
ro.build.hidden_ver=I9000XXJVO
ro.build.changelist=118186
ro.flash.resolution=720
ro.tether.denied=false

After this is done you will need to clear market cache, and then hope it takes affect quickly, or remove and then re-add your primary account to your phone.
[Captivate General] \/icious:
Thanks man. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be working for me.
[Captivate General] NightHawk877:
I downloaded Asphalt 6, Apparatus, Beautiful Widgets, Sentinel 3, and Minecraft. Thinking about getting Great Little War Game too.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gurpreet9080:
anyone have flashable zip of any file manager or titanium backup??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Helldrak:
In titanium backup, click the menu button -> more -> create update.zip to create the flashable zip
[Optimus One, P500, V General] terratrix:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kjetil84:
Hi

Just got my new Samsung Galaxy Nexus today, but it cant find a network and have no signal.

I have tried to search for network in settings, but it comes up empty.

In the "about phone" page under signal it says -113db and 0 asu (varies a little bit, but not much)

I'm in Norway using OneCall, on the Telenor network, but the phone cant find any network.

The simcard works fine in other android devices.

The phone was sold as unlocked/simfree.

It says "onecall" on the bottom of the notification bar when I pull it down.

There are also apn settings for my simcard (looks like they are read from the simcard)

Wifi works great, and I can't see any other problems than that it cant find a network, but that is kind of a big problem since it is a phone! :P

I have rebooted multiple times, three factory resets, and tried with another simcard, but no luck.

Anyone have a idea what to try? should I try a custom rom? or do you think its a hardware problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kjetil84:
I just saw "Telenor" when I searched for networks, but when I tried to connect it said it couldn't connect, and now I cant find it again.

Seems like I just have the worst possible antenna! (or radio?)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] g33k3r:
What type of phone did you have previously? Maybe you need an updated SIM card?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Faz20:
A new SIM card has solved this type of issue for quite a few people so give it a shot!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kjetil84:
But it works in other phones like the HTC Desire and the old Hero.

I just drove into town, and I got a few bars, could make phone calls and so on.

But back home it still cant find a network.

Which leaves me to believe that the antenna (or the radio) is bad.

Do I have to root it and install a custom recovery to install the stock rom again?

Or is there a "rescue" solution? like on HTC devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nism0o:
Works fine here. Test a custom rom or another radio or something.. If it not works go back to stock and return it. I bought a HTC once with a bad antenna.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fredrikmotzfeldt:
same problem

what did you end up doing kjetil84? I have the same problem. at home I have like no signal, but other places I have a litle. I use Talkmore witch also uses telenor.

an update would be great
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewhansen86:
That happened to me once before, try doing a factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fredrikmotzfeldt:
still a problem

Just tried a factory reset, and it did not help :(

I love the phone, but at this time its not usable for me :(
[Xoom General] TonyBigs:
After a weekend sale, the Xoom Family Edition jumped to $499USD. I went to a Best Buy to confirm. Confirmed. Is this a case of supply and demand or did *something* suddenly happen (aside from the recent root)?
[Xoom General] mgerbasio:
Looking at the off contract price of a 32gB Xoom 2 at $800, they probably figured they needed to raise the price of Xoom to make the Xoom2 seem like a deal ;)
[Xoom General] icedmayhem:
its now 349.00 just as fyi
[Xoom General] big ach:
Why hasn't the Xyboard gone to Best Buy yet? I've got some gift cards there I need to spend! :-D

Is there normally a delay between when verizon releases certain products and when Best buy does?

Just curious...we're in the same area (Cincy) and I don't see these apps (or any you've listed in the AM posts) until the afternoon. Do you see them early in the morning or do you have knowledge of what's going to be offered outside of Market?
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] Woody:
I just get to work really earlier and search them out. Most times you can find them before 7:30 am but they don't hit the market front page until around 10. I do pull each one before I post to make sure it is in fact 10¢.
[Milestone XT720 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:

[XPERIA X8 General] cppxaxa:
Please Help!!

I need overclocking but for a session i.e. cpu clock should be normal after a reboot ...

or overclocking for a short interval of time

or emulate overclocking in the phone

I need for better performance in games ..... for asphalt 5

or give valuable suggestions for better performance esp. on the said game

or suggest ROM ( with better performance in games ) that can be installed from xrecovery by recovery image

Thanks!!!!

Device

Xperia X8 E15i

Android 2.1 ( installed from recovery image )

Baseband 006
[XPERIA X8 General] stratoukos19:
In my opinion GingerDx is the best for playing games.

Also install Alfs kernel (if you have bootloader unlocked).

Go to Settings->CyanogenMod settings->Performance->CPU settings

and set your CPU higher without enabling "Set on boot".

This (without enabling "Set on boot") when you reboot your phone

cpu will return to default values.

Also you can set your CPU higher , play your game and then go to

CyanogenMod settings->Performance->CPU settings again and set to default!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Press "Thanks" if i helped
[XPERIA X8 General] naim.kamiya:
try download Chainfire3d at market.

make sure ur phone already rooted.

after dload chainfire,install chainfire driver

and go to chainfire setting,tick reduce texture..

it will increase ur performance.
[XPERIA X8 General] cppxaxa:
I am currently using SetCPU with no overclocking.

( I put '#' in front of overclocking code )

I used overclocking but it gave me no satifaction because after that my launcher animations was bit like a slide show ... I am using Xperia Active Launcher

I use SetCPU for underclocking at the time of Screen Off and I get very big increase in standby time ...

Thats a good thing I got
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tally114:
Hi guys,

I found a phone last week and was so happy with it! but I wanted to start the phone and see if someone had called to the phone, but it doesn't start! If I charge it with my samsung charger, it vibrates sometimes and repeats but it doesn't start (no screen), once it made sound? So is this common is this hardware related or software related if so please help me!
[Nook Color General] slimpyman:
does the nook colors made now have a locked bootloader? or was it just the nook tablets that have that locked bootloader.

Im kind of confused cause I think i read that Older nook colors are not locked, but the newer nook colors have a locked bootloader
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
This would be the first time i have heard about this... I am going to say it is only the tablet; the lock is partly the hardware, wjich i dont believe has changed in the nook color..
[Nook Color General] slimpyman:
thanks dude, im sure some people are confusing stuff about the nook "color" tablet having a locked bootloader. :) so yeah, definitely. thanks for the heads up, I thought the nook colors didnt have the bootloader lock on it.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
You can't exactly lock a boot loader with an OTA update. Only the Nook Tablet has a locked bootloader.
[Nook Color General] gsutton:
I am very new to Android and Linux terms and operations. Would you be able to point me to a link that discusses what a bootloader actually is? Thank you.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
I just did a quick Google search:

http://www.tested.com/news/know-your-android-bootloaderwhat-it-is-and-why-it-matters/1879/

http://androidcommunity.com/android-101-bootloaders-20110527/
[Nook Color General] patruns:
Since the NC does not have a locked bootloader perhaps someone can close this thread?
[Nook Color General] MrColdbird:
No problem. A bootloader is the very first bit of code that is executed when you turn the device one, aka. if you press the power switch.

It's a static piece of code, which usually resides on a ROM chip whose sole purpose is to execute the next stage bootloader, usually on a EEPROM / Flash which in turn boots the operating system itself...

When we talk about a locked bootloader it means that this piece of static, unchangeable code, executes a check on the next-stage bootloader for validicity, usually a checksum or signature, before executing it...

Which means, that selfmade unsigned next-stage bootloader code like ours will not boot, because it doesn't pass the checks on the static first stage bootloader.

I hope this made sense...
[Nook Color General] Imbroglio:
Is it possible that the upcomming 1.4 update could put the same NT bootloader in to the NC that prevents custom rom usage?
[Nook Color General] MrColdbird:
Nope. The 1st Stage Bootloader usually is on a ROM chip, means it can't get erased / rewritten.

The only way to add a new 1st Stage Bootloader would be by replacing that ROM chip, which requires a hardware change.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Did you actually read this thread? The answer was/is/always will be: NO

Sort of, but no. The OMAP has a hardware pin which determines boot priority. The bootloader, recovery, etc, are all on the flash. MLO, uImage, etc.
[Nook Color General] bobstro:
I understood the question more as whether NEW Nook Color units would be locked. My two older units are safe, but if I order a NEW unit, might it be locked down?

(As a guy who nearly got burned putting alternate firmware on the Linksys WRT-54 routers, I think this is a valid concern. Nothing keeps a manufacturer from changing the innards of a product as they see fit, even if the outward appearance and description stays the same.)
[Nook Color General] starbuckk:
Not likely. They probably are not manufacturing more Nook Colors, (don't know this for a fact), and you can bet they're not gonna crack open the existing ones and replace the boards. What is being sold now is most likely a very large back stock.
[Nook Color General] patruns:
I suspect they will continue to manufacture Nook Colors as long as there is a demand. It is costing them less to manufacture now which is one reason for the price decrease. And with the 1.4 update they are a very viable contender to the Kindle Fire.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] mrphil101:
I was looking for the lapdock deal but not available. However there is a $25 discount for online orders. There are some IFrogz headphones and a car charger listed at $0. I placed an order for a set of headphones, and sure enough the order totaled FREE. Yep, free is for me.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Gutterball:
Whats Premier? Do you have a link?
[Atrix 4G Accessories] mrphil101:
It is a site for corporate and government users. Your employer has to be a "member". Requires verification.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Gutterball:
Ok thanks for explaining that.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Amer1337:
if your current military can you get into it or is it only official govt jobs
[Atrix 4G Accessories] mrphil101:
Don't know the answer to that. Guess you would go to the place where mil. discounts are listed. There is a site set up with company name ending the url. I would think it would be something similar for ya'll. Military get discounts on phones & plans?
[Atrix 4G Accessories] nunjabusiness:
Where is this discount? Do you have a code or a link.

I have a premier account and WANTS MAH HEADPHONEZ! :D

New Port Richey, huh? I used to live in Old Clearwater Bay.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] borgib:
I also want to know about this discount.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] sdlopez83:
Plus 1 I have govt accnt where is this
[Atrix 4G Accessories] mrphil101:
they are still available for free. If you have the premier account, you should either: at the page where they are asking for zip, phone #, etc., scroll down and select shop for accessories. If you are going directly into the premier site, find the accessories link, and either one of the two methods will put you at the point of inputting make and model. I received my second order yesterday (another set of earbuds, and a charger I didn't really need, but it works ok). If you are not seeing them free, you are in the regular site, not the premier site.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] nunjabusiness:
Trying to log in to Premier gets this:

[HTC Sensation] DexterMorganNL:
Hello,

I bought a HTC Sensation for a Chinese person. Now I know the Chinese market is all different then the western.

So I was thinking, is it best to place a Chinese google android market on it ( I mean the alternative ).

Its not an expat person, but a real Chinese person, I know she needs QQ, MSN, but for the Android market she will need use a Google account ofcourse and baisu is in China the Google, like many other websites.
[HTC Desire S] trippinz:
I am using a HTC Desire S. I unlocked the bootloader, then flashed 4ext recovery via android flasher but its stopped responding and my phone is on the HTC logo splashscreen. Please advise.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Try adb reboot recovery, and see what opens. Else, try adb reboot bootloader and try to get android flasher working from there.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Human_dude_007:
How about auto run manager? To prevent @pps from starting up on their own and hog battery? (I use Gemini app manager)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deetailed:
Related to bloatware freezing (#12)... only Titanium Backup Pro has that function. If you don't want to pay (or pirate), there is a free alternative of Link2SD's freeze function, if you're already using Link2SD as your app-to-sd script. It can also unfreeze apps frozen by Titanium and vice versa.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ScripterJR:
Nice tips but min. Frequency that low... I heard 480 was the ideal.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vj_dustin:
added the Link2SD tip.. :)

and as to the autostart up manager, as like #5 says, it might close apps at startup but it surely will consume some of its own, so better go the manual way :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vj_dustin:
yep 480 is the best..

122 though saves more battery, as i have written it causes blackscreen bugs and sometimes freezes the phone (coz the cpu kinda goes into sleep mode)..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lycan:
Just saw this guide and i must say its pretty well done ! :)

Could you add more info on minfree values and adjusting them, because as far as i remember they increase battery life alongside a performance boost.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vj_dustin:
i dont have enough knowledge over that topic, so i'd rather not direct someone in d wrong direction.. :)

but i know for sure, to set Minefree values right V6 Supercharger is the best way.. :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] iamawsm:
very useful for me :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] simplyred123:
some corrections i guess...

SOme people are happy with LG stock gingerbread, so it's incorrect to say that.;)

you forgot the word"hog":p
[Optimus One, P500, V General] myawan:
The strategy which I follow to get some more juice out of my battery is to take backup of all my APKs in SD. Check which applications tend to run in background, uninstall those which are needed only on and off. Reinstall and use when required.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vj_dustin:
thats hectic.

why not just freeze/unfreeze them. that totally disables them as well :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] myawan:
I had problems with freezing some apps like 'quiet sleep', resulting in FC of Titanium Backup itself :rolleyes:
