[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alizawi:
I prefer to avoid manual for two reasons:

1- I still believe the actual OTA version varies slightly than what is claimed to be the official OTA release in zip format. Little touches are always done before pushing an OTA update.

2- I have a broken power button, so can't do much in bootloader, or even get into it.

Perhaps google took it back to do some more bug fixing. But I'd like to hear an official statement if that's the case
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ghostyle:
Please explain. I've tried:

Checkin

System Updates

Resetting phone.

Seems like the update was pulled. No matter what I do it says the phone is up to date. With all these stories of people bricking their phones I want to stay relatively legit.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarvin:
Same thing. When I heard google started pushing ICS, I flashed back my nandroid backup of my stock 2.3.4 to get the OTA update, Immediately I got 2.3.6 update and installed it, and few hours later when I wasn't home I got the 4.0.3 update, and I thought I'll do it when I get home, but then it disappeared and doesn't comes back no matter what I do.

I did backup to the corrent stock (2.3.6) and tried to flash back to 2.3.4, thought maybe it will push me again, but now it doesn't push me 2.3.6 either.

Are OTA updates one-time only ? or it supposed push me 2.3.6 again ?

anyways I restored 2.3.6 and I wait hopefully to 4.0.3 again.

Please update here if you know any solution. I know I can install it manually, but I prefer clean OTA version.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riichiie:
after I update to ICS manually, the VPN doesnot work, so I flashed back to 2.3.6 and want to update by OTA.

but till then, the 2.3.6 system says it's up to date...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alizawi:
looks like it's pulled by google...hopefully for some enhancements... still waiting for something official
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarvin:
we had it in our hands and we lost it :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scarface883:
Same story.

Last night I saw the system update notification and after 30' (charging the battery) I lost it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRIUMF:
I suppose it's due to issues with ICS 4.0.3. For example I can't make outgoing calls (SMS, incomming calls and data - works fine). Had to revert back to 2.3.6. Now everything works. So for two days i saw update notification and today it dissapeared. So I hope they found a problem and will fix it soon.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alizawi:
yeah, I guess I'm glad I didn't install it then. I'm sure it was pulled for a valid reason, so it's best to wait...fingers crossed that it won't be too long of a wait.

In the mean time I think I need to get my power button fixed, or hope the widgetlocker works on ICS so I can use my volume locker to wake the screen!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvanlew:

this is one i've bought and can confirm works http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005X3C0SO/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00

I would estimate it last about 85-90% as long as the original, so for the price can't be beat.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
I bought two of those batteries+charger off of Ebay for my Gplayer, and I am duly impressed at the life they have for only $2.50 apiece. I have been using them for about a month now, power cycled them several times initially to break them in. I get what seems to be 95-115% charge of the stock battery, after a week or so. I haven't done any scientific comparisons, but I dragged my stock battery out yesterday, and it seemed to drain much faster than these replacements. The build quality is horrible, they fit loosely in the tray (but don't pop up/out when the case is on), and I wouldn't expect them to last more than a year at most, but for a spare to carry around on a long day, or as an emergency backup, these are an amazing deal for 10x less than equivalent replacements.

Side note: I do not believe these batteries output as much current as the stock battery does. I am heavily oc'ed/ov'ed (1.5GHZ 1.4v Core/1.19v Internal), and that seems to be that max I can push it, because if I up the voltage any more, the Gplayer reboots. This doesn't happen on the stock battery, so people who aren't overvolting/overclocking to insane numbers shouldn't have to worry about it.

If sitting or standing 6 feet away from the screen isn't a problem for you I'd say get it. I grabbed a micro HDMI 2 HDMI converter off Amazon for about 4$ shipped but that's only because I had a couple 15ft hdmi cords available already( use them for xbox360/PC)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
Well, I bought it. It's working pretty well. :D

Yeah, if I had some HDMI cables around, I probably would have done just that. I have a PS3 and a monitor that use them, so I probably should have done something like that, but I figured 'hey, 10 bucks no big deal'
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
So how you liking the hdmi out to your tv? What apps/games/media do you use?

I like showing off all the great pics the G2x can take to family and also teasing them with our superior gaming devices on the bigscreen with games like gta3,riptide,zen pinball,pinball thd,shadowgun etc.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
I like it, it looks good. Only problem is the edges seem a tiny bit cropped out. Like if I'm holding it vertical, the top half of the time is cut off. Anything I can do about that?

I never thought about pictures, but I was thinking of watching movies. I've had Shadowgun and I just bought GTAIII...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AxelBowex:
Hi I've had my SGS2 since the day it came out in Canada. Until about a month ago, my phone was doing fine until I noticed it got a bit slow. My RAM usage when no applications are turned on is 300MB. It used to be 180-190, but it's drastically increased. Does anybody else have this problem? And if so, how do I fix

EDIT: The 300 MB is even after clearing RAM. it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazer4:
Are u sure thats how it was before? Mine has been at around 300mb+ since I got and also after flashing stock roms I think thats normal.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AxelBowex:
Yea it was regularly in the low 200s or high 100s. Now its always in the 300s with everything turned off. So is is just me and you or does anyone else have this problem?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayloooo:
Hey man , honestly you shouldn't be worried about RAM . Lots of threads here that talk about it and the thing that stands out the most in all of the thread is "Unused RAM is wasted RAM" . I wouldn't really worry about RAM because if you need more , it'll just take from the other used RAM . 900MB of RAM is more than enough to play a game , while listening to music , messaging , etc.

But what I don't know is whether more RAM uses more battery life . THAT I cannot say .

Correct me if I'm wrong . :p

[Atrix 4G General] Swypth:
Now before anyone post the comment about there are other threads about this, i already looked and tried those methods for the past 4 hours. Nothing has worked. This is what happened....

I tried to install CM7 From CWM and when it was installing it didn't list anything that was inside the zip, it just said installing.........installation complete. i wiped the necessary wipes and reboot. Now i am stuck on the moto screen. my phone is Rooted, unlocked bootloader and i have cmw on my phone. i downloaded GingerMod and am going to try to put that to my SD card and see if it installs.

But i feel like i did that wrong to install the rom. If i am or if someone knows how i can fix my phone i would really appreciate this, i have a 1 year old son that is with his mother and i need to check on him and my job relies on my phone also. So over look my noobness and just someone help me, i would really appreciate it. :)
[Atrix 4G General] b2bstarz:
I'm using CM7 Mod ICS!

Everything runs good.

Install the zip of the GoogleApps

reboot
[Atrix 4G General] Swypth:
okay so i flashed the gingermod and i got past the dual core logo and got to the animated moto icon but it just looped it. so i am trying to flash it again and do the appropriate wipes. I will download that ics though and try it out if this doesn't work.
[Atrix 4G General] ghost_og:

What is so special about the panorama mode in the ICS camera that google keeps advertising? I just tried the panorama mode in the stock GB and it works fine, just like in that "calling all" video.

Did you notice that when you use panorama the resolution is automatically changed to 640x480? Maybe the ICS version doesn't sacrifice the resolution? Can anyone verify this?

My guess is that panorama mode on the Charge is a function of the TouchWiz camera and it isn't a part of AOSP until ICS.

I have rooted my phone and use droid 2 bootstrap loader to put Clock work mod on it. I wanted to put cm7 on it so i edited the assert kernal command as brickster had said on a previous post and now it boots up and freezes at the red M screen. I can boot into the stock recovery but not Clock work mod. What should I do?
[Droid X General] Rocheforte:
I had the same issue and can tell you now whatever you do, don't flash the sbf supposedly for our phones. It will brick it and you will have to do a warranty exchange.

If you have adb set up on your computer, connect the phone and boot into stock recovery. Open up cmd and navigate to the phone and type "adb reboot recovery" (no quotes) to see if that helps. You did backup with nandroid I hope?
[Droid X General] D-man3490:
Yes I did a nandroid backup. Thanks I'll try that.
[Droid X General] D-man3490:
For some odd reason my computer isn't picking up my phone even though it did a few hours ago when i went into stock recovery. Maybe i need to find and reinstall the adb drivers
[Droid X General] D-man3490:
Ok here's what you have to do. Don't go into stock recovery at all. If you do your computer won't recognize you plugged your phone in. Instead just let it sit with the red M then plug your phone into your computer. It will then see your phone and you can use adb to issue the command "reboot recovery" it will then go into CWM.
[Droid X General] Rocheforte:
Awesome man, that's definitely good to know when I get the itch to try a custom rom again. I'd just like to know why we're not able to flash any roms without these issues.
[Droid X General] D-man3490:
It's because we started out with 2.3.5 in our phone. Most people on this forum started out with 2.2. I also can't install the update.zip that's supposed to put it back to normal because I started with 2.3.5

nope, it comes with internal storage, that is partitioned into various sizes and uses..

system rom: 1.12 gb

sd card: 21.2 gb (21 gig is partitioned as a standard sd card storage, ie for media/apps/storage/etc)

which totals just under 31gb

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Onke:
Hi to all,

I really hope this isn't a re-post, I've searched a lot and the web but with no results.

Is there a method to make a FULL backup (contacts,mails,sms,apps etc..) before flashing a custom Rom on my HD7?

I've seen some apps that can backup the .xap of the Phone but no one talk about the list of personal contacts and all personal data/files in the Phone!

I'm searching for something to restore my HD7 exactly as before the flash (I don't want to re-save all my telephone numbers,they are tooooo much... :( )

Any solution?

Thank you very much!

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jelliottz:
To the best of my knowledge, there isn't a way to restore everything back to your phone. You can sync through Gmail, Live, Outlook, etc. to store email, contact phones, etc, but backing up sms and mms is not yet a possibility.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong though. Sorry I don't have a better answer.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ngocduy506:

Ok, I got somebody holding my hand but I just don't want to abuse on his help too much so I'll be spreading a bit my Q's.

I'm ready to try a new ROM and I'm thinking in flashing xboard's Quicksense.

I just don't want to screw up so I just did a Titanium backup (free version) I did all users apps +sys data, so my question is...

If I screw up or the new rom has something that I need not working I just do a restore with Titanium and I'll get the phone exactly like I have it now???

Thanks,

Oh!

Another one...

If I do the "restore all missing apps with data" restore, after I did the whole "all users apps +sys data" backup, would it also istall back all the bloatware???

I'm afraid I can guess what the answer for that one is going to be :(:(:(
[HTC Amaze 4G] Trevorhimself:
I'd recommend using ROM manager to create a backup of your current ROM. As for use of Titanium backup It's just to stick to backing up and restoring users apps and data only (system related restores can cause negative results). You might be able to freeze or uninstall any unwanted bloat with free Titanium if not the pay one can do it forsure.

Apps like Titanium and Rom Manager are worth buying! I use Titanium for just game data.
[HTC Amaze 4G] HuskyHamburger:
To answer your first question, you would not get the phone exactly like you have it now if you backup with Titanium. Titanium backs up apps, not the entire phone. To backup the entire phone, you would need to go in recovery and make a nandroid backup or download the rom manager app and from there, make a backup

In regards to your second question, if you backed up the bloatware, you will get the bloatware back. Also, I am not 100% sure, but I think the back up missing apps with data does not involve the backup of all user apps + system data
[HTC Amaze 4G] ferincr:
Thanks guys, I look a bit more into it before I commit then just to be sure that I won't screw up.
