[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholaschum:
For Android OS, we call firmwares ROMs.

Maybe you should try to install a custom ROM that fits you best, and with more features.

First you have to root your phone using these links from my sig:

Follow the instructions from Intratech's post, and use the insecure kernel from the InsecureXWKDD link

XWKDD Insecure & Odin3: http://tinyurl.com/InsecureXWKDD

Then choose a ROM from this selection of ROMs:

I recommend MIUI, Criskelo ROM, Lite'ning ROM, CheckROM or SensatioN ROM.

i was streamin a movie with vplayer. i was using the mhl adapter and had it going to my hdmi on tv. it was working and suddenly froze. it was completely unresponsive so i took out the battery. i unplugged all the cables and tried to reboot. it keeps flashing the samsung logo screen over and over. it wont boot up. i went to recovery, rebooted, nothing. stock recovery mode says

cant access /system/csc/ATT/system

i was using the stock android that it came with, i believe 2.3.4

i can enter download mode and recovery mode

i wiped data, nothing

i flashed cwm with odin, (CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_KK5-v5.0-CWM5.zip) wouldnt mount sd. went and choose fix permissions, able to mount sd, reset, nothing

flashed stock, still stuck

flashed bootloader and parafram, now stock recovery wont show up

still can go download mode, still can recover mode when i reflash cwm

does this require the usb jig? can it be flashed without it?

and the stock android recovery is not working, it just displays "deleting encryption meta data" then turns off again

No jig needed if you can still enter download mode.

Take the battery out. Put back in, plug USB cable in while holding volume down.

I was reading a couple of news stories that state apple is trying to patent Hydrogen fuel cells for mobile devices. I was thinking "Congratulations Apple that is the type of innovation we need." However then I learned that Apple not only does not have a working prototype or a solid methodolgy, But they are patenting the fuel cells because they are following another research groups work that will make Hydrogen fuel cells more feasable. Unless Apple gets its act together and finances its own reasearch into this field and comes up with a working methodolgy and solution I believe this patent application should be thrown out, and the ACTUAL reaserchers granted all patent protection.

Article on apples patent application http://www.dailytech.com/Apple+Pate...l+CellPowered+Mobile+Devices/article23589.htm

Article talking about the researches apple is preying upon: http://www.dailytech.com/Researcher...en+Fuel+Cells+More+Practical/article23164.htm
[General Topics] slapshot30:
Well that's just great. They'll probably get what they want, they always do. The whole patent system needs to be redone.
[General Topics] MartyLK:
Hmmm...Hydrogen fuel cells already exist. Apple didn't invent the technology.
[General Topics] lamborg:
maybe hydrogen fuel cells as battery in mobile phone or tablets...
[General Topics] Kailkti:
That's evil apple. Unless you are in talks with the other research group about it, that's just evil to take someone else's idea.

$1 gets you a reply
[General Topics] Nuenjin:
Ideas are just words

If they want to patent a hydrogen fuel cell for phones,good for them. Someone needs to do it but they cannot patent something they do not have. You don't actually have to build the thing to get a patent. You do, however, have to be able to describe it in such a way that someone COULD build it.

An idea and a dollar might get you a coke but working schematics are the real brass ring here.
[General Topics] Mainspring:
they better not grant patent to Apple for a tech they did not even invent.

ridiculous.

hydrogen fuel cell tech should be available to all for benefit of all.

typical Apple shenanigans... :rolleyes:
[General Topics] hungry81:
Tell that to the scientists that thave spent their careers researching it.
[General Topics] MartyLK:
Though I don't disagree about patenting a mobile phone fuel cell, I do disagree with the kind of patent. I am a firm believer that a patent should never be awarded without an actual working model. Anyone can describe something so well that it seems it can be built. But the problem is, it may or may not be able to be built. There's a lot of trial and error in creating.
[General Topics] Nuenjin:
The US Patent documentation does not require a working model for typical interactions. Others on XDA have commented that the US patent system is broken and needs reform, I am not commenting on that aspect.

But the directive to describe ones invention so others can build it means specific drawings, schematics and technical language that most people will not understand unless they are engineers of the specific field of the device in question.

Just because some Chinese outfit claims to be able to supply you with top of the line hydrogen cells for your droid 2, with details and a good website, doesn't mean they can.

Let not your hearts be troubled. Even if Apple finds a way to sink billions into a hydrogen battery, others will find a way that does not infringe on their precious patent. And in the end, it will be a good thing for the mobile device market.

The thing that Apple keeps forgetting is that if they win part of a lawsuit, which is akin to a grumpy old man yelling at the kids to get off his lawn, they are actually pushing android and hardware manufacturers to find new ways to build phones. That means we win. :)
[General Topics] ishy64:
That would be cool and effecent
[General Topics] MartyLK:
The sooner Apple loses these patent suits, if they do, the sooner they will bring out new products that will have to compete. Right now Apple is just following the path of least resistance. They are being efficient financially and trying not to have to spend much on new products. In a sense, they are like an anal-retentive person who is so tight with their money they squeak when the walk. They are cleaning their plate to a polish and getting all they can on what they currently have before spending money on new and improved products. This ensures they've done all they can to maximize survivability.
[General Topics] nottc:
For literal infringement that might be true, but the doctrine of equivalents makes it expensive to find alternatives that do not infringe upon a patent.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cizake:
Hi everyone,

I'm using a GSM version of our GN. I only use Google Voice as I change carriers very often therefor I never want to give the carrier phone number.

When receiving a call on ICS we have 3 options:

- pick up

- Decline

- or send a quick preset text message.

Is there a way to make the phone send the text message out of GV and not the carrier Caller ID?

I'd pay for an app to do just that.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JoeProcopio:
turn off texting on the phone altogether and it forces GV to send any texts...but you lose MMS capability...

when you choose to send text, does it ask you if you want to send it through GV or regular? probably not if the call comes in on your regular number...try having someone call your GV number and send them a text to see which number shows up...

if that works, just use the GV number for everything:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aldo37:
Yeah the text reply is useless because it uses the built in texting and not the GV app. That was the case when I tried it a year or two ago it might have changed now but I doubt it.

Also GV has MMS now (receiving).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grims:
I've heard rumors some people can get MMS. (through some kind of forward to gmail setup) but it's never worked for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Royal2000H:
Not quite... you can receive MMS from a Sprint sender. That's it. Your provider doesn't matter, nothing else matters. Only Sprint senders.

None of my friends have Sprint (or anyone I know really) so for all intents and purposes GV still doesn't have MMS (at least for me).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grims:
On a similar note...does anyone else feel google treats Google Voice as a red headed stepchild?

I have been using a year and a half old version of the app because it's the only one that treats the back button as an actual return to main screen button...instead of some funky cycle through every previous text button. It is also the last version to handle notifications correctly (newer versions keep the notification in task bar if you reply to one online)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jacobsjg1:
I've tried setting my phone to use GV as the default way to send texts, but still see he same bad behavior with Verizon texts being sent from quick messages. Sucks!

Probably will need an updated dialer from google, but if anyone has any other ideas I'll try them...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aldo37:
I don't think so. I receive MMS from people all the time in my inbox (Sprint and non-Sprint). You have to make sure email notification when you get a text is on I think.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braneless:
Before you revert to gb, you'll have to perform a full wipe, not just a factory reset. Open the Mounts menu in cwm, then format system, boot, data, and cache - then restore your backup or flash a different rom.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack807:

Two questions for users of Bionix Next Gen 2. Trying this rom out.

2) How do you enable alphabetical sorting in the apps folder? Right now it is a mess and I can't even sort them manually. There are no options in the menu besides switching between list and grid modes.

Any help is appreciated.

[Off-topic] Dirk:
Thread title is misleading. Shoes are what you wear when you're not playing sports. They are the footwear that potential employers will judge you by. Other men will rate you by the shoe that your feet are clad in. Women will decide whether or not you are worthy of their adoration, or their contempt, by the shoe that you chose to wear on that particular occasion.

Nike is not a shoe. Nor is Converse, They are synthetic footwear for pre-pubescent kids, or sporting apparel for those who are destined for a lifetime of agonising knee pain. They are 'trainers' at best. Anybody wearing such a 'shoe' outside of a sporting arena has the same fashion sense as a man in a Saville Row suit, wearing white socks.

You will not get hired. Your peers will sneer at you. You will not get laid. At best, you will hired as an 'Extra' in any second-rate TV or Movie production as Hoodlum number 13, no doubt attired with a matching pair of baggy jeans with a crotch that hangs somewhere below your ankles.

Real shoes look equally as good with an Armani suit as they do with a pair of Armani jeans. Real shoes make you look like a man. Anything less and you look like a tasteless tosspot that was dressed by his mother.
