[Off-topic] Archer:
You can use Google Music and have up to 20,000 tracks online to stream to your phone or a browser. You could alternatively use Audio Galaxy which allows you to stream your music from your PC to your phone.

Both are (currently) free and work very well.
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
Ummmm.... wasn't I the one that first mentioned Google music?? :confused:

You can haz Audio Galaxy. K? :p

I am trying to hook up my phone to my tv through the mhl hdmi adaptor. I am on BeastMod and cant get any picture to come through. Im not sure if there is something I am missing or if anyone has had this issue but any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I will be sure to hit "thanks"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hipfarer:
Do you get audio? Might want to try the following:

1. Reboot phone (see if it shows up)

2. Try alternate hdmi cable

3. Unplug all cables and attach in the instructions order

I had issues as well, my audio would play but the video wouldn't show up. Using an alternate hdmi cable remedied the problem. Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghettoc401:
Also, you must plug in the charger to the side of the MHL adapter for the video to show. It won't work otherwise. This confused me the first time I tried to hook my phone up as well.

Just plug in the charger, plug the micro-usb cable to the charger, then the mhl adapter, then plug the mhl adapter into your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dooco:
Just wanted to know if any of the root methods worked. I tried superboot to no avail. Any suggestions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tosainuu:
Anyway to get this working yet?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spjoneser:
This could be a deal breaker for the next couple months!

Lots of incompatible apps!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cheyse:
Yeah you would think Verizon would make their flagship app work with their flagship phone. But hey, at least they didn't screw up the release date of the 15th...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robotsforeveryone:
The NFL Mobile app doesn't work on the G-Nex? What the hell am I paying $10 a month for? :mad:

My 3 week old RAZR is sitting on eBay and it does something very important that the G-Nex doesn't. This is sad news.

Well at least my wife has a RAZR. I can watch it on hers. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ttsupra95:
I agree. This really pisses me off. I work out of town all the time and cant catch up on my NFL. I'm going to reactivate my Bionic and maybe return the Nexus if they don't resolve this quick. There are a bunch off apps that don't run or constantly crash. Verizon visual voicemail keeps crashing in the background also.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] calKno:
VZW states it is a 3rd party app :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fox318:
The app has certain approved devices that work with it.

I miss it only for the radio streams and the fieldview.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] calKno:
I never used it for the video, just the stats and to keep up with the game when I can't watch or listen to it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fox318:
I just don't understand why you would tie it to devices instead of just a Verizon account.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] calKno:
I guess it is a VZW "sponsored" app, so they limit to their phones and dropped the ball in having the developers prep it for SGN or ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimbosi:
It's my understanding that -all- 4G phones, of which the G-Nex is included, are supposed to be able to use NFL Mobile for free. FWIW.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stashtrey:
Yes....this is ridiculous. I was looking forward to streaming highlights and video. Now I can't even are a flipping score?

Several other apps not working as well.

I still love this thing though.

I'm from the Netherlands and a great NFL fan.

all my NFL apps are working fine on the GNex.

fantasy football

gamepass mobile

NFL app (this one lets you view scores and highlights and news and such)

so is there a different app you're trying to use?

ps: all apps from NFL enterprises.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PsychoSimatic:
The APP we use in the states lets us watch the games live, We get full covereage of the NFL network games (thursday,saturday,sunday,monday night games) and for the bulk of them we use Red Zone to let us watch all the good plays while they happen.

Any chance of being able to maybe.... tinker.... with the ini? maybe trick it into thinking that its something different or maybe its just an issue of screen size again. Similar to swypes issue?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bocaJWho:
It is a bummer that this doesn't work, but there seems to be a little self-contradiction here - a lot of complaints that Verizon GNex isn't a stock google phone, and then more complaints that they didn't do more to change the phone so that it would work with Verizon sponsored apps.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nimpuz:
Hey, I wanna ask something. I already unlocked my arc bootloader with fastboot. But, when I checked it again with

, it shows me that my phone still locked:confused: Then I tried to unlocked it again via fastboot it failed because my phone's already unlocked. So, is my phone still locked or already unlocked?

Thank you for help me figuring this out :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BluechipJ:
*#*#SERVICE#*#* / Service Info / Configuration

It will still say "Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes" once you unlock. It's just showing that the phone is unlockable. Once you've unlocked, unless you relock, it's still unlocked.

Hello fellow xoomers, im having a problem hope some one can help me. first off i'm a noob to rooting. I have a xoom wifi running android 3.0 , kernel version is 2.6.36.3 build HRI39. I was adventurous and tried to root my xoom and needless to say it didn't go well. I honestly thought I bricked the damn thing, to my shock and welcomed surprised I was able to do a wipe and erase all the data on my device and return to factory settings. but when it went to connect to the wifi all it's saying is wifi error every thing else seems to work fine. so i was wondering should i try to re root my xoom again??? will this correct the issue i'm having with my wifi?? and can some one point me to a guide that's made for the version i'm currently running seems likes there's a million and one different types of software and you have to have the right one for the version your running or every thing goes from sugar to well you know the rest. Any help would be greatly appreciated if you need any more info please let me know. thank you all in advance.....

if not clear cache and dalvik. should work again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MisterEdF:
That's because you should be using the capacitive buttons. The Cspasitive ones never worked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fsmith01284:
^ lol. check in settings. Update the kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Bimboy:
I've read that fixing permissions in CWM fixes the capacitive buttons not lighting up, when they should be.

If that doesn't work, try a different kernel.

[Kindle Fire General] wtbhacks:
I have been trying to flash this rom to my KF.. however when trying to CMD mkdir recovery i get the response mkdir failed for recovery, file exists. any solutions? im mounted and device shows on adb.

adb shell

su

cd cache

mkdir recovery

mdkir failed recovery, file exist

Any ideas?
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
did you look to see if the directory recovery actually exists? If so, the error makes sense.
[Kindle Fire General] wtbhacks:
Honestly this is my first rom flashing.. and dont understand where to find that.. i followed the instructions from here -CM7 For Kindle Fire With Audio & In-Browser Video [Download & Install]- on addictive tips

but for some reason i cannot get past that.. i didnt see any post about the same problem.. so not sure how to get around it >.< heh the only ive searched my sd card and havent found any recovery files
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Not knowing could end up bricking your device.

Using ls -l will show you what is in the cache directory... you most likely already have a recovery directory which is why mkdir doesn't work, it tells you why.

Example:

$ [B][COLOR="Red"]adb shell[/COLOR][/B]
$ [B][COLOR="Red"]su[/COLOR][/B]
su
# [B][COLOR="Red"]cd cache[/COLOR][/B]
cd cache
# [B][COLOR="Red"]ls -l[/COLOR][/B]
ls -l
drwxrwx--- root cache 1969-12-31 17:00 lost+found
drwxrwx--- system cache 2011-11-29 18:06 recovery
#
[Kindle Fire General] wtbhacks:
ok so i did this

ls

lost+found

recovery

thats what showed up.. so being that.. how to i rid the directory so i can flash the rom then?

ls -1 showed no such file or directory
[Kindle Fire General] MayfairDROID:
J noticed some omissions in the instructions, like going in to root after adb shell, among some others. Make sure you are in root (# instead of $) as soon as you get into adb shell.

In all honesty, not trying to be a ****, I would suggest you wait until there is a working.custom.recovery before getting in to this. Although not difficult, you can brick your device with one bad command, ans not having a fool proof recovery is not going to make recoveery very easy.....
[Kindle Fire General] wtbhacks:
ughhhh amazons lay out is a jokeeeee tho haha and i was in root... su puts you in # right after adb shell.. but yeah i might have too... i cant figure this out for some reason >.< ty tho
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
All credits go to Scrosler, Nils, MrSmith, and everyone else. I took the Linux version of this tool and modified it to work on Mac OSX. The Linux version did not work for me, so I decided to fix up a Mac version and upload. It also has a special WiFi Tether install script I whipped up.

INSTALL THE MAC OSX ANDROID SDK BEFORE USING THIS!

Here are some links to get you started with the SDK.

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/de.../#.TuaS3lxjgSM

So now that you have the SDK installed...

1) Unzip Cleantool_Mac.zip

2) Open a command window, change directory into your Cleantool_Mac directory

3) Run ./cleantool.sh

Have fun :)
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Cool! Good Job!
[HTC Rezound] McFroger3:
What exactly does this remove?
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Well, you can Temp Root, and then you are given the option to remove some bloat, all bloat, or VZW bloat, and you can also desense
[HTC Rezound] McFroger3:
Just to let you know this link redirects to

[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
The link you quoted and in the OP goes to guides as I would assume were intended. Don't know how/why you would get to somewhere completely different.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Worked fine for me too!
[HTC Rezound] jdaniels31:
cant seem to get the command screen to accept my commands. Pretty much a nube when it comes to command screens and code, but if anyone could help lead me in the right direction, i'd appreciate it. I already have sdk installed and the cleantool zip unzipped. Just not sure where to go from here, as everything i've tried on the command screen has come back permission denied, or no such directory. Thanks in advance...

In terminal I get to a Password prompt?

Edit: Nevermind, just hit Enter. Doh!

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 PM ----------

Do you have it for permanent root?

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------

How do we get permanent root on a mac?

Sorry, I just saw I somehow wrote that on my post above.

---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

1. In the Terminal app ( /Applications/Utilities )

type: cd (path to Cleantool_Mac folder - Easiest way to do this is to open a Finder window next to the Terminal window, navigate to the Clean folder in the Finder window and then drag the folder into the Terminal window. Make sure it has a space between the cd and the path.)

Example: cd /Users/username/Desktop/Clean_Mac

Hit Return or Enter

2. At the next prompt: Type: ./cleantool.sh

3. Select the Temp Root option then let it do it's thang and then select the Exit option.

Hope that helps.

Hi, I'm in need of some help, I got tired of waiting for the gingerbread update, so I decided to install cyanogenmod 7, I rooted my phonne no problem there, then tried to install cyanogen and now my phone is stuck on the Lg logo, what I'm asking if someone knows how to unbrick a phone, or if Lg can provide me with some links, there is a lot of info on the internet but none for my phone, I heard it can be done with NVflash or Smartflash but I'm not sure how to do it, I live in Canada my phone is the LG Optimus 2x LG-P999 V11H with Wind Mobile, thanks in advanced.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] HerrKuk:
This is the P990 (O2X) forum...

Of you get over to the guys at P999 (G2X) they might help you ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Fulwood Sedge:
As HerrKuk said you need to head over to the G2X forum.

But if you can load a ROM onto your SD card then put on cyanogen mode for the G2X and flash that through CWM and in theory you should be ok.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GoDzPlaY:
I think you installed the P990 rom on P999 and that might have bricked the phone !!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Uh... this is the g2x forum.

You say your phone is the optimums 2x (O2X), yet you say your model is the p999 (which is the G2X), so which is it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dw9906:
Plus, if you can boot into recovery than you are not bricked. I agree with the post above to.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
He's right, if you flashed that rom via recovery, just download a rom for your correct phone model onto your memory card and flash the rom the same way you did the first time through recovery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
My understanding is the partitions are set up differently on the P990 vs P999. There is thread somewhere about it. Flashing the wrong rom is reversible, but there are some steps involved.

Search the developers forum.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] littlecarlos:
only in the US tmobile the p999 is called g2x but in Wind mobile the p999 is called Optimus 2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Oh really? So same phone and same hardware?

I did not know this thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Me understanding if u flash a p990 rom onto a p999 phone u lose the baseband .... don't think they ever found a fix though

e

But try to boot into recovery assuming u flashed a custom recovery.... if u haven't maybe try using the recovery flasher in the g2x forum assuming its a p999 u have... if not well search n c if the p990 recovery can b flashed the same.

Good luck n keep us posted

Replied using my g2x with a cracked screen
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GoDzPlaY:

Try this if nothing is working!!!!

Just follow the steps and install the stock ROM for P999 using smart flash !!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GoDzPlaY:
If you have flashed ur device with some other device's ROM then u can't get into CWM if u r able to get into CWM recovery then try and install some other ROM for P999!!!

Note:- Flash done using using SmartFlash will remove the root and CWM as well.

So after flashing u need to again root ur device and install CWM if u want to be the root user else enjoy stock ROM!!

:-)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jwslam:
Same thing happened to me.

It's because when you use CWM you're supposed to flash CM7 twice... but nobody tells you that until you're bricked.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1180331

this saved my phone.

but it also loaded T-Mo stock 2.3.3 which cannot be rooted at the moment.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GoDzPlaY:
If u want to root ur device and install a custom rom then flash ur device to 2.2.x and then root and then install the any custom rom!!!

I didn't like the stock rom 2.3.3 due to memory and battery issue so switch back to CM7.1 !!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chjade84:
Got the Nexus today and having no experience with the AMOLED screens (iPhones and EVO before) I'm not sure what is considered normal and what is defective. I know there are plenty of threads about this, but very few examples.

Whites (Brightness 0-100%)

Greys (Brightness 0-100%)

More Texture (bad) left, Less Texture (good) right.

Viewing Angle - UPDATE: My new Nexus has much less tint when viewed at an angle. *Colors adjusted to match as close as possible in Adobe Lightroom - and they are very close.

Viewing Angle - At extreme angles the screen with produce an iridescent effect.

Courtesy of TAMIM2007 - Left Galaxy nexus / right Galaxy 1

Courtesy of iansmith

Galaxy Nexus OLED's with a black screen showing red and green pixels are indeed slightly lit even though it should be "black" (15 second exposure).

Galaxy Nexus "black" vs LCD "black" (15 second exposure).

THESE ARE DEFECTS Exchange these phones... You shouldn't have to live like this!​

Courtesy of asb123 - Tint Fade at 0% brightness.

Courtesy of staticx57 - Black spots on a dark screen. Very common issue, odds are your replacement screen will have these, too.

Courtesy of blackhand1001 - Image Retention issues.

Courtesy of tonnytech - Banding and Transparent Lines

If other people want to add their own pictures for analysis I'll try and add them to the first post so people new to the AMOLED world can feel better about theirs/exchange for a new one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gearhead27:
I'm seeing the same thing with the whites. They almost feel like they have a yellow hue to them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrianr514:
normal with a pentile display same thing happened with the nexus s the rgb settings arent exactly correct
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Aye completely normal. It's what a high-definition Pentile screen looks like.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chjade84:
Well, that answers that then.

Thanks guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RickROM:
Is this really supposed to be normal? I'm not convinced yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wadyas:
I came from a SGS2 and I can say the banding/lines/grey dots are much worse. The S2 seemed more glossy and colours seemed richer than the matt styled newspaper type of screen that the nexus has. I am quite annoyed as this was not mentioned in any of then reviews.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leechy:
very useful post, thanks OP. i just picked up the gn two days ago, and the screen is bothering me as well. i havent done as rigorous testing as the OP, but i definitely notice similar banding at lower brightnesses. from what it sounds like, it is normal. :(

i came from a nexus s 4g and gs2, i've never noticed this problem with AMOLEDs in the past. very disappointing so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melterx12:
that's because the sgs2 does not use pentile, it uses full rgb, at the cost of a considerably lower resolution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chjade84:
Updated post to include an up close look at the PenTile display pixels. Appears the same as all the others FWIW.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
nice thread, i think you should change the title and have a mod to sticky it, this helps people not starting useless threads about their display showing tint of yellow/blue/grey etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chjade84:
I think the sticky is a good idea as well. Not sure what i would need to change in the title though.

Who knows a mod? LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andythefan:
I wish I had seen this thread sooner. It almost seems like no one else is complaining about this issue. I'm afraid to turn in my GNex for replacement because I'm afraid the replacement will be much worse than this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jk0l:
For some reasons, the AMOLED on Samsung phones (GS, GSII, etc.) are not that great with the stock settings Samsung pre-set.

Just wait until supercurio (the guy behind voodoo project) works his voodoo magic on the GN's AMOLED.

You'll be amazed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chjade84:
For what it's worth I actually took mine back for a replacement since I had what looked almost like a fingerprint under the glass - and my replacement is somewhat better.

The blue hue when seen at an angle is a little less blue and the "linen" effect is a little more subdued as well. It's definitely still there though but I think it's worth it.

Oh why didn't they just make it standard RGB like the Galaxy S II?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
i've returned my galaxy nexus three time to the shop, and been through 5 units in the shop, problems were bright pixels, scratched screen inside and outside, random movement of the screen (like someone has been touching the screen continuously), in all cases the screen looked ok, just like the photos shown in first post, except for one that had a tint of purple/pink along the top of the screen(can only be seen in grey settings and dark rooms).

about the RGB, i dont think they have the technology to make super HD amoled display with RGB at low cost yet, but thats by guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RickROM:
I went to my local Verizon store, and all of the display models looked like this. A sales person let me compare to his phone, and his looked like this also.

Seems like this is just the new standard I guess, or maybe some of us have sensitive eyes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staticx57:
It's one of those things that once you see it you can't unsee it and it will always bother you. I had the rezound before my nexus and the capacitive buttons all leaked light onto the screens. I had to point out this fact to the sales guy cause he didnt see it. Once he did he checked all of the display models and they all had the same problem.

That being said, all phones now a days seem to have some "problem" with them and sadly you need to pick the problems that seem to bother you the least.
