[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wowandroid:
Hi guys,

I got my orange samsung galaxy s2 less than a week. Yesterday after rooting, flashing villianrom, i like an idiot, installed Clearglass 1.6 Theme zip via CWM. After rebooting, the phone has now gone into a boot loop. But since i had a nandroid backup (NOT A ZIP FILE!), i thought i'll simply restore...but i can't! The sdcard won't mount. So then i found THIS THREAD.

After following the instructions, i still can't mount the SD Card, yet it's fine in windows 7.

I also thought i'd try to use the ODIN method to reflash my stock fw, but i can't find the correct kernel version :confused:. FYI, i'm from uk and the details of my phone are below:-

MODEL: GT-I9100P

ANDROID VERSION: 2.3.4

BASEBAND VERSION: I9100PBVKI2

KERNEL: 2.6.35.7-I9100PBVKI3-CL608158root@DELL82 #2

BUILD NO: GINGERBREAD.BVKI3

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME! I can't be without my phone :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Not sure what you are asking .

Firmware is not kernel whatever your correct firmware is that includes the kernel .

You have a 1900P whatever the P is .

Find the firmware not the kernel here .

Stock Roms .and csc

Alternative

Clean Slate for those that balls up the firmware .

Backup data first if phone is working .

Boot CWM recovery

Mounts and Storage

Format cache data system sd card .

Remove battery

Boot to download mode

Open Odin

Install correct stock firmware .

Still problems use usb jig to set rom counter to zero .

Return to service centre .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wowandroid:
Thanks for your fast reply JJEgan. Could you please tell me which stock fw/rom i need to download as the only one that looks close to mine (KI3) is a poland one and i'm in UK.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No idea what your firmware is as you have fl;ashed it .

Based on OP KI3

Then use KI4 CPW UK firmware is what i would do to get back to a working phone ,

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wowandroid:
Many thanks for showing me the correct version. I wasn't too sure as i didn't want to mess up the phone permanently. So i simply follow the ODIN boot loop guide?

The way it looks to me is that CWM/Phone is corrupted as i've tried everything - mount/format/unmount/re-mount sd, but it won't detect.

OH BTW! Can you please clarify something for me. I thought that since my orange stock rom said "KI3", i must always get a "KI3"....have i got that wrong? if so how can a KI4 work on a KI3 and why is it not necessary to stick with KI3?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJ.Rockwell:
Hey there wowandroid, the KI* is, in my humble opinion just a revision number, higher could mean better reliability in terms of signal and perhaps even battery drain :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wowandroid:
thanks AJ. It's just that my i9100 is P model (i9100P) and has NFC capabilities. I've managed to flash the phone back with the ki4 rom, so big thank you to JJEgan. I just thought that because i have a p model, i might end up removing features once i flash with a ki4.

Anyway, now that i've got it working, can i go ahead and use odin to flash villianrom/checkrom back again?

cheers mate. I assume from your nick on forum that you've got checkrom? If so, could you tell me how you get a great looking theme installed after checkrom has been flashed? The last time i tried it, i messed up and none of the kitchen apps themes ever changed the looks (just boring samsung looks)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CheckROM:
checkrom is compactable with every Theme out there if its built for the latest XWKK5 version which checkrom is on!

So first

1)Install ROM

2)Use there Kitchen Download only any one of the themes, and hit apply and then install (Obviously)

OR

You can Download manually from the Forums any theme or any thing for stock XWKK5

3)After a theme install u will reboot.

4)Then use there Kitchen to flash any mods etc u want ;)

Personally i use this via Kitchen http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1310527

hi guys,

i'm about to get started with the update. couple of questions though:-

1. What kernel do you recommend? I need a kernel which gives it the longest battery life if possible.

2. What theme do you recommend? I need a theme which is good eyecandy, but isn't too bloated. Something like this for the villianrom:- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1229723

3. Is there a rom posted that has already been customised and tweaked with popular kernels/themes? Saves me messing around.

Hi,

I've rooted my NT, installed market and some apps, everything is working like a charm..

i have 2 problems.. related to the language.. i found the way to set time for my region (france) but i didn't found a way to set the "check spell" (?) in french language.. neither to have an azerty keyboard instead of qwerty..

For the keyboard, it's just a matter of attention.. But for the ckeck speller, it's a really annoying thing when you wan't to answer a mail, the text is checked and corrected in english, even if it's french.. not usable..

Is there a way to change this ? have a french check speller ?

thanks for any advices..

PS. i used GO launcher, i tried to install the GO keyboard with GO french support, but when i get in the settings, i can't change for the GO keyboard, i don't have the option.. And when i try to go in NT settings, keyboard section, the settings app unexpectly close..(force close)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] levincem:
Since i've rooted the NT, i can not access the keyboard settings, and cannot de-activate spell checker.. (process com.android.settings has stopped unexepectedly. Please try again.. But it always do this)

How can i de-activate it ?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkStone1337:
I'm thinking of using a HTC Magic as part of my project which involves retro game emulation :)

The HTC Magic is perfect for my needs as the motherboard is small enough to fit in the casing of a GameBoy Advance.

Can anyone tell me how well emulators tend to run on the Magic when the Magic is overclocked? Could you also tell me what the cpu speed, rom and device type (32A/32B) is?

I'd appreciate any feedback! Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] darkguy2008:
I've tried to use the Magic for retro gaming (as I love them) and here are my experiences:

FroyoDragon ROM, CPU 235/595, No JIT, no CC:

NES: nesoid is a great emulator for it. Touch controls kinda suck as they lag the game, it'd be cool if you can map the trackball to the gamepad instead. This device suffers from heavy touchscreen lag, however, with my ROM you can play them at almost 100% speed. Kinda forget about sound though, as it's a little choppy.

SNES: snesoid... same with nesoid. 80-100% speed without sound, forget sound if you want to play.

SEGA: (from the same developer of nesoid)... I've been able to play Sonic 2 at almost 100% speed with kinda playable sound, except for the choppyness if you play it with the touch controls.

GingerYoshi ROM:

This ROM gives a lot less lag on touchscreen, but the framerate (touching the screen or not) isn't as smooth. It's constant though, with like 80-100% speed depending on the emulator, their settings and such.

---

Just make sure you configure the emulators to be the lightiest possible. This means... no screen scaling, no touchscreen controls overlay, FPS locked at 30 (or 60), Frameskip at 2-5 (or auto), etc... it takes a lot of trial and error, but it's kinda... possible, yes.

Would I recommend it for a 100% retro experience? no. Get another phone for the task.

Now... for playing on the road or in the waiting line? hell yeah <3

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwhooftman:
Since youre using CM7, the /datadata partition (where programs are stored) is limited in size (this is not the same as /data/data!). Try moving apps to sdcard, via the Cyanogenmod settings (a bit like the old days where storage for programs was limited).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwhooftman:
/datadata is around 170mb in total, you can check free size by navigating to it with Rootexplorer. Move apps to SD through Settings, Applications

what can i do about that , it seems that i have 50MB cash and i can't delete them using recovery method or cash cleaner

is there any idea ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaynpayn:
For your first problem, there, taken from Mintberry MIUI thread (MIUI is cyanogen based so whatever works for one usually works for the other):

Q)The datadata folder is too small! (a.k.a. "It says the data partition is full when trying to install an application, but it's not!)

A) This is a CM7 bug that's been present since the first ports. I think there is a reason behind this choice because /datadata is a mount point, however... let's apply this little dirty workaround:

1. Open AppManager --> Root Explorer or any equivalent app

2. Delete folder /data/data

2. Copy folder /datadata to /data/

3. Change name of folder /data/datadata to /data/data/

Don't worry: you won't lose any app or data after doing this.

Worked for me.

For your second problem, this could be a dpi setting. Nitrality lets you mess around with your screen's dps settings. Some apps see this and say they're incompatible with your screen settings. Try getting that to default and see if it works.

Going to the application manager and cleaning market data seems to help in some cases. Sometimes a permanent fix, sometimes just a temporary one and sometimes not a fix at all. Can't hurt to try.

There was also a cyanogen build.prop fix for some games/apps not showing up in market.

Take it from cyanogen forums:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/33366-gameloft-games-not-showing-in-market/

May not be relevant at all since you can see just not download, but thought i'd share just the same-

Do you have a custom recovery installed?

NB.: Your device is not bricked.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eduCoder:
You need to make sure build.prop is in the correct format for linux and its permissions are rw-r--r-- then send it through adb push in recovery mode like this (please ask about any step before doing it if in doubt how to do it):

Prerequisites :

a. Recovery mode is working

b. Android SDK (for adb) http://www.londatiga.net/it/how-to-use-android-adb-command-line-tool/

EDIT: In fact you don't need the whole SDK and JDK for ADB, see here

Steps:

--------

0. Get your original build.prop and fix it into proper linux format using this http://www.thefreecountry.com/tofrodos/

1. Start the phone in recovery mode http://android.modaco.com/topic/328380-keys-combos-on-acer-liquid-mt-s120/

2. Connect the phone to PC via USB

3. Goto /platform-tools/ and copy your fixed build.prop file here

4. Make sure your device is connected by running "adb devices" (no quotes)

5. "adb remount"

6. "adb push build.prop system/build.prop"

7. "adb shell"

8. "chmod 644 system/build.prop"

9. "exit"

10. "adb reboot"

Hopefully this will work for you!

Not to sound dumb, but are you using the same cord as your wife to try and make transfers? I have a computer in my living room, with 2 different USB Cords that my wife and I use for charging in the evenings. One of them connects to the computer properly, the other is unreliable for data and wont ever recognize a phone attached to it. Figured I'd ask so you can rule that out.

Also if the USB port is plugged into a hub, or front of the PC, try moving it to a USB port in the back of your PC that is directly attached to the motherboard. Also make sure there is nothing inside your phone USB slot. I have had some crap get in there (hence the slider on top I NEVER close when I unplug it, :eek:) and it wouldn't connect to PC either.

These are both obvious solutions but we might as well try and start there. Let me know. I'd say uninstall/reinstall the drivers on the computer also, but if one phone works, and the other doesn't so it's not the drivers.
