Grab this if you don't already have the adb and fastboot tools. It also contains Paul O'brien's boot image that will root for you.

ADB & Fastboot Utilities

Grab this for the Samsung ADB usb drivers - helps detect fastboot.

Samsung ADB USB Drivers

Download the images for your respective device from Google. This is a tar and zipped file (not to be confused with an Odin tar file). If you use something like 7zip to untar it you will get a file with no extension. Add the .zip extension to it and then you can unzip it.

CDMA ICL53F Images

GSM ICL53F Images

Boot your phone into fastboot and plug it into your computer. Install the ADB Interface drivers from the Samsung ADB USB drivers I posted. Run a "fastboot devices" to check if everything is connected, installed, and working (it would be "fastboot-windows devices" if you used the fastboot tool from the download I posted above). Once you confirm connection then follow the steps in this thread to using fastboot to restoring your phone to factory 4.0.2. The instructions are for the CDMA phone but if you are GSM replace the necessary files with your respective device.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1399210

I decided to pull the fastboot commands from that thread and put it in this post. These are the fastboot commands you need to issue to flash the bootloader, radios, and ROM images for a CDMA phone. You can choose to skip flashing the bootloader.

hey thanks, yeah just did this right before you posted it, worked like a charm

I am also stuck in a bootloop. I tried using Odin and cant because my phone does not recognize when connected to the computer. It was unlocked and rooted since day one. Had no issues until I tried flashing a rom last night. Now I am completely stuck in bootloop. Any help for this newb would be amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] .synq:
Try this, it happened me yesterday.

Before the Google logo appears, hold the power button + both volume rockers.

When ODIN shows up, use the volume rockers to move to recovery mode and then press the power button.

Then the phone will restart and you will see an android lying down with a caution sign above it, hold the power button and pretty the volume rockers to get to restore to factory settings.

This should wipe everything and bring it back to factory settings. I hope this hasn't been answered to you before, and I hope this helps!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeacela:
As far as power saving goes, we all know dark wallpapers, small data usage and brightness can drastically reduce power consumption. CPU is also a large part of power usage especially the GN's dual core. I haven't messed with SetCPU since my nexus one. What might be some of the SetCPU profiles you might be using? And some of the other power saving techniques?

So far I just have a flat black wallpaper, auto-brightness, and a setCPU profile of the lowest MHz when screen off, although I can't tell if the profile is making a difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I have screen off at 350/700 because 700mhz only costs me an extra 100mv with my undervolts. And battery <20% @ 350/700 Also but my battery life is so good i havent made it to <20% yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeacela:
How do i change the amount of volts used in SetCPU?, sorry i have no experience with voltages haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Antzor:
You need a kernel such as this

I'm currently using the UV only kernel as I dont find an overclock is necessary on the Gnex.

Basically, the stock kernels on this phone (like every other phone) don't support voltage control out of the box
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
I have the same screen off profile, with conservative governor. On the stock 4.0.1 kernel. No problems with this at all. Probably saves quite a bit of battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeacela:
Is this kernel compatible with CDMA bands?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theboo7:
Nope
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Heartbreak:
Running ARHD 2.1.2 on LTE VZW GNex

CPU Profiles:

700/350 when Battery <50% Priority 99

350/350 when Screen Off Priority 100

Not sure how effective they are, only second day using the profiles.

First off, I want to say that this is an AWESOME ROM. Every version keeps getting better and better. Much thanks neobuddy!

I had a question about this latest version. In the Gallery, it seems to have synced with either Picasa or Google+. I turned off the sync option in the settings but there's still some unwanted albums there including a couple that I'm not sure where or what they are because they're empty. Anyone know how to disable, hide or delete these albums from the Gallery? Usually there's a hide feature but I can't seem to find it in this version.

Does anybody else have trouble with pressing the (portrait and stock) keypad and getting what they meant to press? My last phone was a Nokia 5800, which is much smaller, yet I had no trouble fast-typing stuff.

I thought I'd get used to it but, after 3 months, I'm still having trouble typing. I'm still having to correct everything I type.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netorino:
I know what you mean, I type almost perfectly on an iPhone (not trying to praise it) and I still get lots of wrong letters on my Play after months of use. That's considering I've used the stock keyboard, smart keyboard pro and swype < ofc this one wasn't supposed to touch every letter but still :P
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] number2301:
Coming from an n900 with a physical keyboard I find it a nightmare. Closest I've found to acceptable is stock keyboard with gestures (swype) enabled.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
MessagEase - weird at first, but it gets easier and you can get pretty fast with it once you get used to it. Some complain about the size in Landscape mode, but you can make it bigger. I like it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b1g1an:
I find Smart Keyboard Pro gives me the just keep typing and have faith it will end up ok experience that the iPhone does and is much better at adding words to the dictionary. Make sure you do the calibration bit in the settings and it should be almost perfect.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danieljamie:
Why does nobody like Swype?

I use Swype with auto correction OFF, but word suggestions on,

And I can type quite fast and also get correct words and spellings..
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
I find typing a lot less accurate than the iPhone on stock keyboard and the ICS keyboard (which is slightly better than stock). The swype setting is quite good when you get used to it, but I can't see any reason why typing should be worse than the iphone.

There are no calibration settings on stock keyboard either??

Maybe the touchscreen is less accurate than the iphone. Not a major problem. Just means I have to type slower.

I still love my Xperia though.

---------- Post added at 11:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 PM ----------

Have installed Smart keyboard pro and been using it since my last post and I have to say that it is like night and day compared to the stock keyboard and the ics keyboard.

So much better :)

Thanks for the tip...

I don't see the need for any other keyboard.

Can any point to me the EXACT location of the save game for Eternal Legacy,

I have ONLY checked gameloft folder, and definitely did not find any file in the eternal legacy directory that looks like a saved game.

I'm in I4 firmware (non-rooted) willing to root if anyone can point to me the EXACT location.

NOT LOOKING FOR AN IGNORANT reply, please ONLY point to me the file and location, thank-you in advance.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kailkti:
From my experience of gameloft games, that usually doesn't work. It seems your progress is saved in the sd files and loaded from there.

Just a guess but keeping the sd files might be the backup. I don't know which file exactly however.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJ.Rockwell:
Ah well you're quite right, I just checked and gameloft really stores saves in its own directory. For 9mm HD it's save.dat, so perhaps check for something similar

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extreme184X:
those are common locations, have tried looking for a save file in those directories (months ago), but no save file found. i have been trying to find this save file for months, now gave up and decided to ask for help.

That's why i need someone to point out to me the EXACT location of this save (someone who can GUARANTEE me the location of the save file)

please people no more guessing replies or "have tried in this directory" type replies (meant that in a polite way)

someone who has backed their save file for this EXACT game, not another Gameloft game, please point out to me the EXACT location.

Has anyone had any success with scanning in bar codes to apps like Key Ring? I can only get a single/straight bar scanner to pick up the bar codes on my phone. Any of the multi-scanners won't grab the bar code. Any success out there with this? Would an anti-glare screen protector maybe help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cvhovey:
Currently I have a Droid Razr but considering returning it for a Nexus during the extended return period. But one issue is important to me ... and I'm located far away from a Verizon store to test it hands-on.

Yes ... I've searched here and elsewhere, but did not find anything ... not even on the Qik website. What I do know is that the Qik app works on some Samsung devices and not on others.

On my wife's phone the ONLY video chat app that works is a T-Mobile 'modified' version of Qik. No other video chat app recognizes the front facing camera. That is why my question here is specific ONLY to Qik. When my wife is out of town, Qik is the only way we can video chat. Not Skype. Not Fring. Nothing else works with her phone's front-facing camera.

QUESTION: Have any of you been able to get the Qik video chat app to work on your (Verizon) Galaxy Nexus?

Hopefully someone here has gotten Qik to work, but if not, then at least I know what my options are and it saves a long drive to Verizon and back. Thanks!

Get the seidio surface, mine just came today and it puts the incipio case i got from verizon to shame.

It's really thin, the fit is perfect, and it doesn't attract fingerprints or get stuck going in or out of your pocket.

Which Incipio case did you have? I have the Incipio Feather case coming, as I absolutely loved the Feather on my ZuneHD.

DFT Splash screen

Hi Magdan,

i went back to WP7 yesterday and i was searching my Harddisk for a suitable Splash Screen.

I did many for the Android world and for WinMo but none for WP7 as it seems (oh my gosh my memory is so bad i am glad i got huge harddisks and a searchfunction :D )

I will drop a few in here soon for your pleasure. Was specifically thinking of some DFT Splashes as i use their ROM's on my phones.

Thanks for creating this thread.

PS: there's a guide on how to do HD2 Splash screens in my signature (in the Android Documents) which is using POF's nbimg.exe if anyone wants to do his/her own. Its easy once accustomed to the process.

[EDIT]

I don't find any suitable DFT graphics and in the meanwhile I went back to Android. If anyone is searching for splash screens just do one yourself.

[EDIT 2]

actually i managed to extract the DFT logo from their UltraFruit ROM. So here's the splash made from it, packed with LEOadvancedRUU for your convenience:

[HTC Sensation] JWhipple:
Today I tried both RCMIX and INSERTCOIN's 4.0.1 ROMs, and both of them ended up having the same issue after about an hour or two...

The issue is that the screen would shut down and the phone would lock as it should , but then when I hit the power button to unlock it, it would turn on as if it had been completely off (MAYBE IT WAS?). Please note: I did flash the radio that came with the RUU. Maybe that's the problem?

Has anyone else run into these issues with the ICS ROMs? If so, were you able to get past them?

RCMIX was jam packed loaded with my normal apps - IC was just what it came with for the whole time, so please don't say it was something I installed - I installed NOTHING.

After flashing back to gingerbread and my old radio the problem is gone.
[HTC Sensation] lightforce:
Mine did the same thing the wallpaper kept crashing causing this. So I just restored.
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
lol, didn't mean to thank.

BUT since you flashed the latest radio, you're having issues BECAUSE of the latest radio. Flash back to an earlier radio, and you shouldn't have those rebooting issues.
[HTC Sensation] d.cortez:
it's the radio. if you flashed the newer radio without updated the hboot, then you're going to have issues. this is a known issue from the thread on the newer radio.

Based on this, I've restored my ICS backup and left my old-school radio. I'll posted whatever happens!

you can't just install it, you need to manually replace the market application.

just flash the REVERT-TO-NEW-MARKET-V2-CWM.zip in CWM or take MarketUpdater.apk and vending.apk and place them in the /system/app/ folder on your phone.

Does anybody else have GPS locking issues? I'm having intermittent problems with my GPS. Sometimes it will lock almost instantly and be flawless

Other times though it will take up to a minute to lock. After it locks it will drop my location after a couple of minutes too.

Can't find the root cause of the issue. Restarts and toggle airplane mode won't fix it. It seemed to be working all the time when I first got the phone. I don't want to factory reset to see if it will fix it either.

Does GPS have anything whatsoever to do with a data connection? Is it in any way related to Verizon network issues of late? FYI I'm always on 4g. I'm noticing patterns of certain areas causing me problems more frequently.
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
If you are using assisted location then yes, if you lose data you will lose GPS.

Not true. I have used GPS status (on an inc), where I had ZERO service and it pinpointed my exact location perfectly (checked on a 1:24000 map using utm).

This phone and the Inc are 2 completely different devices and have different antenna's as well as how they connect to various networks including satellites. If he is using ASSISTED GPS, like I said, he is using the network, not satellite signal. If the network is down, guess what?

Dear Experts !

I write to you as a self realized noob ! i just try to help a friend unbricking his android device. I tried to look on the forum for a thread talking about this device but i could not find it.

In fact, my friend had a "mobiltab" sleek (google it chinese wanna be android tablet! which looks just like herotab device) device with a bit of a hardware problem. Wifi could not connect to any network, in fact, the device could not show mac adress of this device.

He tried to update the firmware using a "herotab" custom rom by putting it in the root of the device internal SD and rebooting.

Now the device is bricked and could not start :)

After changing the lockscreen image the phone rebooted (after loading the image on the lockscreen). The image was quite large in resolution (I used other images without problems).
