[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melchius:
Hi all,

I did a quick search and but didnt find a direct answer anywhere, I only found that the current stock rom is running 3.1 and the update to 3.2 hasnt been rolled out in the UK.

My question is, if you have UK model Galaxy Tab 10.1 16/32gb wifi only, can you flash a custom rom to upgrade it from Honeycomb 3.1 to 3.2? Or do you have flash a stock 3.2 rom from a different country then flash a custom rom? If it is possible, will I also need to flash any new kernels or would they be included in most of the custom roms that are available? Many thanks in advance.

Melchy
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AceTrader:
You can flash a custom Rom directly. No need of flashing a stock Rom in between as you said.

A Rom contains kernal also. Some will have stock kernal and others custom kernal.

I would suggest you to try Galaxy Task Rom. It have Pershoot's custom kernal also.

Are the 911 issues affecting CM7 also in the Trigger 3.2 ROM? Are there any trigger users that can confirm that 911 has worked for them?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex9090:
Trigger 3.2 was froyo so no issues there.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papi5120:
Only the roms based off cm7 have the 911 issue
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaixjer:
Non-CM7 ROMs are affected as well. The key is that it has to be a Samsung ROM for T-Mobile. It needs the proprietary T-Mobile code. Even a Froyo ROM not meant for T-Mobile will not have working 911 as I understand.

Trigger 3.2 is a "Complete Trigger rebuild from T-Mobile's 2.2 KB5", so that's a pretty safe bet it works. The KB5 update is the official update from T-Mobile/Samsung for Froyo 2.2. Another safe bet is Project-V by the same person also based off KB5.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tabbott01:
Thanks - I was thinking the same thing. There's a TON of misinformation out there.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opethfan3:
What about people that are not using T-Mobile service?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jneal9:
It seems to be related to the coding of the rom itself. I would think the service provider you are using would not matter as long as you are running a Vibrant rom. I haven't heard anything about i9000 ports having 911 issues but they may very well have the problem since some of the code is different.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonjacobmoon:
Works fine for me

I have Trigger 3.2 on Tmobile and got ahold of 911 without a problem.

Hi All,

Does anyone know if there is a way to increase the number of default home screens on the GNex from 5 -> 7?

I love the scrollable widgets, but 5 home screens are just not enough to take advantage of them.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prankmonkey:
you need to install a different launcher
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dawgwood3:
Thanks... that's what I thinking, but was hoping that someone figured out a way to just add 2 more screens to the default launcher.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k0sun7eash3d:
It is faster to just install a more customisable launcher like launcher pro or adw. I believe both support scrollable widgets.

The other option if you are rooted is to install one of the stock launcher mods that a couple of users have in the development section. I only recommend this option if you are comfortable with clockworkmod recovery however, since the other option is significantly easier to install.

Hi everyone.

I had just bought the new Samsung galaxy s2,

the attachment got the screenshot of version of my phone.

now I was doing lot of reading on this forum before I do anything.

then I decided to install this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1320328 rom to my phone.

now as far as I know that 1st step is to take backup of my contacts and phone data.

then copy the zip file to sd card and try to install this rom as per instruction but then I got confused about " Find the best modem for your network"

can somebody help me with this.

right now I don't know anything about android but I am quick Lerner.

can you explain me what this modem does. If I messed with it, will I be not able to connect wifi.

I had seen http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1277593 thread. but I dont know what is all about. If I get some idea them might I will understand more quickly..

thanks hoping somebody will help me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
You have an I9100T model phone.

What they are saying is that each user of their clean and simple Rom may have different results with different modems.

The linked modem thread has good info on users experience around the world and what works best in their region for their carrier, mainly for the I9100 model.

Many users in Australia are saying that the I9100T model works best with the modem that comes on the 'T' device.

Read that modem thread for more info and I think there is a link in there for the 'T' model modem thread. Also might help to check out the Australian thread. Heaps of I9100T users comments in there.

Good luck.

Edit: I believe WiFi is handled by the kernel not the modem. The modem is more for connection to your carrier.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davethechamp:
Hi, welcome to the wonderful world of the SGS2!

Nice choice on first ROM to try out ;-)

first thing you need to do is root your phone and install clockworkmod and superuser. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 is a really great guide and source of the knowledge. That thread is where I started from to learn the ways of android.

regarding the modem: this relates to mobile cell reception rather than wifi. Some different modems work better than others, latest is not always best. The modem can also be network carrier dependant.. Network 3 optimised have always been the best for me. Modems can be flashed and tested fairly easily once your accustomed to your rooted phone and using cwm(clockworkmod).

Hope this helps!

If you've already flashed a full package from elsewhere and cannot reset your binary counter using the Jig just flash this package in the PDA or Bootloader (Yes both will work) section of Odin to replace the bootloaders and then you can reset the counter:http://www.multiupload.com/LQQBRQVJUD

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] NookFan:
Greetings!

Wondering if anyone knows of any sources for the stock Google apps for Honeycomb 3.2.

I installed HC (per http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1358758 -- and am also going to try this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1393904 )

I've been looking forward to HC, and am glad I finally bit the bullet, rooted, and installed it. But I'm still left wanting the stock, un-Sense'd experience.

The gmail app from HTC seems largely untouched. Unfortunately, that's not the case for calendar & contacts. Anyone know where I can get those apk's? (And if it's as simple as getting a hold of those and/or flashing them from CWM?)

I looked around on Google, but didn't find a good candidate to use (admittedly, I'm new to this, and am not sure what should work and what to avoid.)

Thanks, folks!

Find a device that runs a asop or or close asop version of honeycomb and dl a Rom and pull the apk. Worth a shot
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] HJ200:
Attached are the Google Calendar (incl. widget), Google Desk Clock (incl. widget) and Gallery apk. I copied them from this ROM, but got them working on a HC Sense ROM now. :)

push to /system/app and reboot.

Unfortunately I don't have the Google Contacts apk
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] focbuster78:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] HJ200:
Did you do a reboot? I used adb push command, you might want to try that...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
You changed the permissions to rw-r-r right?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] HJ200:
I forgot to mention I used ES File Explorer to mount /system as writable, then pushed the apk through adb :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
You can type "adb remount" instead of using a file explorer. I find that more convenient lol
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] nickmgray:
I was able to get everything to work with root explorer except for the calendar app which is the one I want the most. Has anyone else has any luch getting the calendar installed?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] HJ200:
Lol, thanks :D

Does your system/app contain the CalendarProvider.apk? It should be there in order to let the CalendarGoogle.apk work. Otherwise install aLogcat to find any exceptions...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] nickmgray:
OK, finally got the calendar working just by using Root Explorer. The trick was to put the calendar apk in the system folder and change the permissions there before moving it to the app folder. Works like a charm.

The Calendar sizing is a bit off, but I can live with it since I mainly wanted it for the widget.

Sorry I'm just now getting back to you. I knew I wanted to flash another ROM, and was waiting till I did to try this. Anyway, today I flashed this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1421074

And then tried the Contacts.apk. I am not familiar with adb, so tried with Root Explorer. With Root Explorer in R/W mode, I put the apk in System, changed the permissions to rw-r-r, moved it to the app folder, and rebooted. The apk is definitely there, but it is not found in the app drawer. Suggestions? (Also, I am not familiar with adb, so was trying to do it without that...)

Very interesting man, nice find!

9% defrag for me, defragmenting now

Edit: all done, 0% defrag now, didn't delete anything. very nice find.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zax_Was_Here:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but but I believe that fragmentation means nothing to flash media. Defragmenting moves the files closer to each other on a physical disk, so the needle has to move around less. But on a flash storage device I believe you're doing nothing of use, and actually just using up write cycles on the flash media
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
You may very well be correct. It makes sense to me anyway. I just thought I'd see if it was possible or not... So far, I'm still waiting on the final results. It's taking forever. I've went through the defragmenting stage, and now at 16% consolidated.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cac2us:
Is that a 32gb or a 16gb class 4?

C'mon man it took 2hrs for 16% and that was 2hrs ago.. LOL JK...

Seriously tho, wouldn't a card reader be more efficient?

EDIT:

My Targus card reader and DiskTrix found 48% fragged files an my 8gb card and it took about an hour to fix fragged files only.

I thought consolidation would take forever. The result was a faster reboot and quicker data access.

I may be wrong but this seems to be a better option then the occasional formatting of the card.

As it only moves the files that need to move.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ubuntunerd:
Android uses the Linux kernel and is backed by a linux-based file system (Ext 2/3/4). Ext by default handles the locating and storage of your files by finding the least fragmented sections on the 'disk' (or in our case flash memory). Ext can get fragmented, but it's very rare (you have to be fully maxing out the disk in some really awkward ways -- basically trying to fragment it).

All in all you should never need to 'defrag' it since the file system keeps things nice and tidy. A FAT-based memory card is a different case, however since memory cards have basically no seek time it shouldn't impact you.

Defragging flash memory is a serious no-no. Flash memory has a finite number of read/write cycles before it wears out (this has to do with electrons leaving permanent channels in the transistors) and defragging would only use up more of these.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cac2us:
I just found this article describing SSD defrag but I think it still applies to SD Cards.

It makes sense that wear leveling or fragging the files would increase the write life cycles of the sectors.

http://www.ghacks.net/2009/01/03/should-you-defragment-a-ssd/

Defragmentation describes the process of physically organizing the contents of a hard drive or partition so that the data sectors of each file will be stored close together to reduce load and seek times.

Solid State Drives can access any location on the drive in the same time. This is one of the main advantages over hard drives. This also means that there is no need to defragment a Solid State Drive ever. These drives have actually been designed to write data evenly in all sectors of the drive which the industry is calling wear leveling. Each sector of a Solid State Drive has a limited number of writes before it cannot be overwritten anymore. (this is a theoretical limit which cannot be reached in work environments)

If you did defragment your Solid State Disk you can rest assured that you did not harm it in any way. It is just that this process is not needed and that defragmentation causes lots of write processes which means that the drive will reach its write limits sooner.

No need for defragmentation is therefor another advantage of Solid State Drives.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zax_Was_Here:
It does apply to SD cards as well, as SSD drives are another form of flash media, just like SD cards, and the phone's internal memory
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cac2us:
So in the case of flash drives, the more fragged the better.

Read only cards would theoretically last forever.

The Only advantage to having consolidated the data, would be in the case of backups that would be accessed quicker.

I think I would rather give up a few milliseconds of my time to get the mileage out of a fgagged flash drive..:cool:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] android-incredible:
I have a 32g class 10 and it was done in 15 minutes.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] WhistlingDog:
+1 on the previous posts by ubuntunerd and cac2us.

Defragmentation only helps to reduce drive head movement as separated bits of the file are read. Flash drives and ssd's don't have drive heads, and hence don't need to be defragmented. Defragging them will only cause unnecessary read/erase/write cycles.

This is one instance where less is more.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] jscott30:
Can you give more info? Are you stuck with rainbows or does it still boot okay into the OS? If the OS boots, there is no reason to go back to stock Froyo. Just use adb to reboot into download mode (adb reboot download) on a PC (or pull the battery, hold down both volume buttons, insert battery, and insert usb). Then, in download mode, use heimdall to flash the zImage.

EDIT: To get rid of the rainbows, sounds like you just need to flash GB bootloaders through Odin or Heimdall.

Not stuck.

I want to go back to stock so I can watch movie on media hub, dman said just use sgs to flash zimage,got rainbow when playing.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jscott30:
Yeah, I meant that you don't have to go back to stock Froyo (you can keep Gingerbread). And you'll just need to flash the stock zImage that came with this leak if you want working video.
