[HTC EVO 3D] tokuzumi:
My initial reactions were the 4G and 3D were very similar in performance. But after using my 3D for the last month and a half, and then doing some things on my wife's 4G, it feels like I'm comparing the 4G to the Hero (a slight exaggeration, but I do notice a significant difference between a non-rooted 4G, and a non-rooted 3D).
[HTC EVO 3D] Ghisy:
I also think that Sense is a bit underwhelming on ICS. Sure, it's a test bulld but still, they completely murdered the new look. I know this is pure Android vs. Sense but it would be nice if they kept the overall black/blue feeling and it somehow fit a brand new version of Sense.

I chose HTC because of the hardware and because I love(d?) Sense but we need something new now. Some Sense apps are better than stock (the dialer and browser for example, imho) but I'm seriously considering switching to CM9 (if the GSM Evo 3D gets a port) or AOSP. Something I would NEVER have thought of a few months ago.

Can we spam them on Twitter & FB like we did for the whole bootloader unlocking to have a brand new "ICS Sense"?
[HTC EVO 3D] rank78:
I noticed a difference, was just speaking from more of a marketing and consumer standpoint. While I'm a tech geek and see things like SD support vs internal storage I know the average consumer just sees a flashy new phone and bells and whistles (ie, NEWEST VERSION! OMG 3D!!!).

That would be heaven :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Alcnaeon:
The difference here is that this is a leak of a ROM that is far from finished. It is entirely possible they have aesthetic changes planned, and just not implemented in this leaked, unfinished ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] gmfeny:
Its looks just like sense on the flyer
[HTC EVO 3D] tokuzumi:
I posted on htc's Facebook wall to use the blue ICS icons, and they said good suggestion, and to use htcdev.com/contact, to tell the devs directly.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ghisy:
My spam comment was pretty much a joke. I do hope the UI design is unfinished, although I will not be holding my breath.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
dont think it looks anything like the flyer personally. Esp since the flyer just got honeycomb update recently.

Every once in a while when I turn on the screen the lockscreen is upside down and all the controls are reversed. Usually I need to reboot the phone to get it out of it. Sometimes it will rotate to normal fashion on its own. This only happens when I have auto rotate enabled. I am rooted running Phantom Hackers Blazer rom latest edition(great rom by the way) and I am using magic locker for custom lock screens. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMrB:
I would think it's rom related, I suggest posting in their specific forum - except you can't until you increase your post count I don't think
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
Ya your right I cant post there untill I get at least 10 posts here. I honestly think its more of a magic locker problem. I will try just running the stock lock screen and see if it still happens. Thanks for the input though and I will keep you posted as to how it goes.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
O ya and also just out of curiosity if you think it is a rom related issue do you know of any other roms out there that are better? I do like this rom but the more I think about it you might be right because when I turn the screen off it flashes my homescreen upside down before it does the crt off animation.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
What you're describing happens to me when I have two things active:

1. Screen rotation animation, and

2. CRT screen animation (on and/or off)

If you have both of these things, check your CRT screen animation. There should be a screen on animation, and a screen off animation. Screen on is the one you need to worry about. If you have this turned on, turn it off. The screen off animation flips and mirrors the image as well, but only during the actual animation that occurs during screen off; the screen is normal when the screen is turned back on. (provided the screen ON animation isn't active)

EDIT: Hmm, JJEgan raises a good point. The only device I see the "Phantom Hackers Blazer" ROM for, is the Samsung Epic 4G Touch, in THAT forum. You DO realize that the Epic 4G Touch (model SPH-D710) and the international Galaxy SII (model GT-I9100) are actually different phones, right? This post is currently in the forum for GT-I9100.

WOW Holy **** you are right LOL I cant believe I did that. I am running the galaxy s2 I9100. THANK YOU for pointing that out! I better switch roms quickly! By doing what I did with the wrong rom was there a chance I could have bricked my phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
If you bricked your phone, trust me, you'd know. I'm right about what? Did you flash an Epic 4G Touch ROM to your International GSII? If you did, I'm surprised it worked.

I'm guessing JKay is installed on your ROM. Did you check to see if the screen on/off animations are turned on or not? And if so, did you try turning off the screen on animation?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
No I know I didnt brick it I was just asking if I could have by installing the wrong rom on here. You were right about the fact that the rom I installed was for the international galaxy and not the one I have. I am surprised it worked too but trust me it was very buggy like the screen problem and it would reboot sometimes and i would get force closes. I am going to flash that rom you recommended. The Illusion. Thank you very much again. you saved me from allot of frustration!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
Alright I flashed the illusion rom but now for some reason the phone is acting very funny It is stuck in landscape mode I cant access the desktop it keeps asking me to connect to my google account but for some reason I have no service and it wont connect to my wifi. Is this a final release or is this still in production?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattcfk:
are u sure you have an international version? how come "sprint" come into play? if i am not wrong, international version is also call unbranded phone/european version. if i am not wrong, different carrier in USA, come with different "modified" samsung galaxy s2 (eg. T-mobile, At & t, and so on), and they are not I9100 version.

i am not sure about "sprint". someone living in US might have some idea?

btw, does your s2 has any physical button? how many touch sensitive button you have?

oh boy, bad news for you. you bricked your phone! :eek::eek::eek:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
Yes I am able to boot it and I am able to get into clockwork mod but when I boot it nothing works and it wont connect to the comp or wifi. I am able to install zip from internal storage but I have no way of getting it on there and in clockwork it says sd card unmountable but could that be because I transferred the file from a digital camera? Thats all I have laying around that works as a card reader.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattcfk:
are you able to restore the stock ROM in any way?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
Well no because I cant acess my sd card if I had put the roms on the internal storage I would be good because I can acess that. Is there any way to flash a rom using odin? What are my options here? Please dont say I bricked my phone because I just got it and I cannot afford a new one. I was always told as long as you can get into clockwork mod you are alright though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattcfk:
No worry, ur phone should be alright now. I am assumming the "software" inside got haywire. Do u remember which kernel you use to flash ur phone for the last time?

@rbtrucking: The GT-I9100 has two capacitive keys (home and back) with a hardware home key between them. It will NEVER come in a configuration that has 4 capacitive keys. If you got the Galaxy SII from Sprint, then TRUST me, you have the SPH-D710. YOU DO

NOT

HAVE A GT-I9100. YOU SHOULD

NOT

have flashed the Illusion ROM that BigMrB suggested in post #6. That ROM is for the GT-I9100, and flashing that ROM, while it may not brick your phone, will at the least do weird things.

If indeed you have a Galaxy SII from Sprint, then you should NEVER flash a ROM from this forum (labeled as "Samsung Galaxy S II I9100"). You should ONLY flash ROMS from the Samsung Epic 4G Touch forum. Check under the development section in that forum for a ROM to flash.

One way to tell for sure is to crack open the battery cover, remove the battery, and look at the label underneath. It should have a model number on it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
I already have a rom to flash I was using the phantom hackers villian rom i have it on my computer and everything I just cant acess my sd card from the phone that is why I cant flash it. Also when I hook the phone up to the comp it does not connect to let me transfer that is the problem. But like i said the phone does go on and I can get into clockwork mod. Could the fact that I cannot acess the sd card from my phone anymore be because I transferred the rom using a digital camera? Maybe that changed something in the sd card resulting in the phone not recognizing it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Can you get the phone in download mode? Do you have the .tar files to flash via Odin? If so, I would just go that route.

And again, you're sure this ROM is for your model phone? You never confirmed which model you actually got. Because if you still think you have a GT-I9100, and you're on Sprint's network, then you're wrong about what model phone you have. Believe me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
Yes I am sure that is the rom I was running before I flashed this one with no problems. I just had a little problem where sometimes I would turn the screen on and it would be upside down and all the controls were inverted. I just checked and the model number is sph d710. How would I do this odin? Is this just like reflashing clockworkmod?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
I do have odin and I can get into download mode. The tar file I have is the one I originally used to root the phone it is LoStKernel-1.0.2.4.tar.md5

I didnt actually go into download mode I held down the vol - button and power and it asked if I wanted to go into download mode so I am assuming it will work. I didnt want to connect it to the computer in download mode without further instructions.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattcfk:

from this video, it shows that you just actually flash with odin and everything go back to stock. try go through the video yourself, as i am not familiar with epic 4g.

edit: make sure you go through everything before you try it. btw, i think the method from the youtube will help u. however, this video is meant to flash everything back to STOCK ROM.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Here are steps that I would do with my GT-I9100. Could be same for you, may not be.

1. turn phone on into download mode

2. Should ask you for confirmation (on my phone, vol up = yes, vol down = reboot)

3. start Odin on your computer. (MAKE SURE KIES IS

NOT

RUNNING)

4. Connect phone via usb (Odin should light up connected yellow

5. for PDA select the .tar file for the ROM you want to use. (You will want the .tar file for a ROM here - I'm not sure about "LoStKernel-1.0.2.4.tar.md5" you listed above. That looks like just a kernel.)

6. Make sure you leave everything else alone. PDA is the only thing you want to select.

7. click flash.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
The rom I want to use is zipped. Are you saying unzip it and just use the tar file in there or should I just select the whole zipped file?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
It might work with the zip, but I've always unzipped and used the tar within.

You may want to check the tar that's in the zip though. You should also be able to open that with a zip program as well. It should contain about 8 files.

What kernal? The one on the villian rom that I want to use? Where would I find that? I unzipped the file and there are tons of folders and I cant find any tar file.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Have a look at this thread.

And if that thread doesn't work, you should search around that forum. That's the forum for your device. You really shouldn't pick stuff up from this forum (I9100) anymore.

He will need to flash the whole ROM, trust me. He flashed a whole GT-I9100 ROM to his SPH-D710. He will need to flash a whole SPH-D710 ROM back to replace all the necessary files.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbtrucking:
Alright so what should I do just flash the whole rom using odin? I am sorry for the way i dont understand too well I am just trying to be really clear so I dont end up further messing up my phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Yes. Follow my steps in post 41. Should work fine. You may need to do a factory reset after you've flashed though. At the very least, prepare yourself to have lost all the data on the phone not on the sd card.
