[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MrWarLock:
Hi all and happy nex year, first post ever here !

Your forums think im too noob to post this on devemopment section lol .

i have a Samsung Galaxy SII X from telus model SGH-t989D (t989dtlkj3) with 2.6.35.11 kernel. After all coverage about Carrier IQ i found your rom Telus SGH-T989D Stock, Rooted, Lightly Tweaked, 100% [CIQ Free] I was impressed in the work you do on this roms, and i just wanna tell you that i learn a lot from your work.

After read a bit on the subject i got the concusion that you can open a ssh session on your phone and type

cd /
find / -name '*iq*'

That in my case return

/system/xbin/uniq
/sys/devices/virtual/tty/[B]sdio_tty_ciq_00[/B]
/sys/devices/virtual/input/input0/uniq
/sys/devices/virtual/input/input2/uniq

/sys/class/tty/[B]sdio_tty_ciq_00[/B]
/dev/[B]sdio_tty_ciq_00[/B]

After read your post Here and some source code read HERE i can tell that i have some kind of Carrier IQ on my phone right !!! But wait if i understand correcly, its like some services that are autostarted in the kernel at boot time.

In your ROM we can find a file named boot.img and im pretty sure its the kernel [CIQ Free] right ? i see in your updater-script that you use something like this for the updating the kernel

assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));

My question is: can i update/flash ONLY my kernel using a command like flash_image for update my kernel (/dev/block/mmcblk0p8) to your CIQ Free boot.img ?

something like this ssh on phone and type

flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img ???

Thank for the help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mintharis:
If I've read the thread for Mr. X's ROM, it seems as though he has included his CIQ-free recompiled kernel with it. So when you flashed the ROM, it also flashed the kernel. So if I understand what you're trying to say, you want to flash the CIQ-free kernel over itself?

I quickly looked through the contents of a flashable kernel (faux 6u) and what you're saying seems to be true. The kernel does seem to be the boot.img file seeing as how the flashable .zip file contains that file, a couple of scripts, a .so file, and a binary.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MrWarLock:
i dont have flashed or use odin/CWM for install this Rom (My phone are allready rooted). I just wanna know if i can take the boot.img that are the kernel free CIQ (thats file are in the Mr X Rom) and install it to my phone via ssh

Like i said, can i use a command like flash_image ?

Thanks for any help/tips
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
You can install any kernel you like but it wont disable the ciq located in rom, you have to remove the apps, libraries and if you want to go as far as i did, edit the system framework extensively as well as some apks.

Fully reading my threads would have informed you on what i had edited as i has posted actively about what i found and where.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PowderdToastMan:
So here's my story. I rooted my transformer (rooted with razorclaw and CWM recovery, had no problems) and I wanted to update the firmware, sooo. I followed some walk through on unrooting by downloading the stock recovery and stock rom to my sdcard then unzipping them and loading them with CWM recovery. I let it boot and rebooted to load in the stock rom. Then I rebooted and loaded the stock recovery and rebooted again. And now it wont start up past the "Asus Eee pad Transformer" screen and just stays on it. I can get into part of stock recovery and wipe data and cold boot linux. But when I try to get into the other half of recovery options it just does the little robot unpacking the stuff then I get a triangle with an exclamation mark saying it failed to load. I tried using NVflash with the prime v1.4 ROM and failed. The starting S/N is B90 so that's why I figured NVflash didn't work...Because I have V2 SBK not V1. I can go into APX mode but it's getting really frustrating, WHAT CAN I DO??
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
I don't think you were supposed to unzip those files. Those are CWM flashable zip files

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Yeah cause i was thinking if you did unzip it wouldn't flash anyway.

How long does is sit at the asus screen?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PowderdToastMan:
forever until it dies, I can only get partially into recovery like I mentioned. Also when it charges it just shows that screen too(had to charge it cuz I got so frustrated I just left it and it ended up dying).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PowderdToastMan:
Please someone help, I have no idea how to flash a rom to my Device without NVflash. Is there some other program I could try that would work? I basically just need to flash a rom onto my device then I can try installing stock recovery again
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Long shot but maybe try this, it's what peoples are doing to downgrade. Hopefully the recovery might pick it up after you reboot into recovery.

The company could do a restore, but they will probably charge you since you rooted. You could try, or you could lie, and say it goobered after installing the update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jyeley5:
I flashed the leaked 4.0.3 radios for my Nexus, and noticed a good boost in signal strength. However, I have had several occurrences of not being able to switch back to CDMA signal. If I set is to CDMA only in the settings, I get no data connection. If I switch it back to CDMA/LTE, data will come back instantly. Also, while downloading a large file to my Mac, using WiFi Tether on the 4G network, I received a phone call. I expected my data connection to either disappear, or default to 1x, but instead, I maintained 4 bars of LTE signal, and my download continued at a fast speed throughout the duration of my 5+ minute phone call. I thought this was only possible with VoLTE, which Verizon hasn't launched yet? Any clarification on these matters would be greatly appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ianwood:
You should be able to maintain LTE data and use voice at the same time, VoLTE or no VoLTE. In the non-VoLTE environment, the GN uses both CDMA and LTE radios concurrently and one doesn't impact the other. Only when using CDMA data will your data session be cut by a call.

So before posting these "IM BRICKED HELP!" threads why don't you try reading stickies or using the search? There's only 100 of the same thread....

I'm going to assume you are on froyo boot loaders. Go make/buy yourself a jig

How to make a jig one of a few how to's.

MobileTechVideos.com You can grab a jig there from Josh.

1)Remove battery

2)Open ODIN as admin, connect the cable to a rear usb hub (if desktop).

3)Connect phone to computer and press the key combos (if i897 bl vol up and down)

4)Insert battery

5)Use odin

If odin doesn't recognize your phone then

1)Open ODIN as admin, connect the cable to a rear usb hub (if desktop).

2)Use Jig

3)Connect phone to computer

4)Use Odin

5)????

6)Profit.

Edit: Forgot to mention if you are on gingerbread bootloaders then that pc!phone image is download mode screen.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] depakjan:
I am new to samsung devices, been a HTC guy... i love my NOTE a lot.. only thing bugging me is the heat!!... is this device supposed to get warm while browsing , downloading and doing some heavy tasks... heat starts near the camera and in some time entire device gets warm.. is this normal??? ... i have not overclocked it... tried different firmwares and kernels, issue persists ... i am confused
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LordManhattan:
No heat here unless i charge it and play an intense 3D game or something at the same time. Does it get really hot?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bluelavender:
Yes, it is... I also found out from Angelom (creator of abyss kernel) that default standard voltage from note is a bit on the high side.

Since you have tried different kernels, i assume you are rooted. And if yes, you can use setcpu from the market and tweaked the voltage down . That was advised by user Angelom and Robertberma and until now, i don't have anymore heating problem
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] depakjan:
@ LordManhattan , Not hot but Warm.. when you leave the device in sleep and touch it you can see how cold/normal it is, and once you start using it slowly the heat will spread and yes 3d intense games make it worsen, watching flash videos through browser and stuffs like that... surprised it overheats only when you charge and play.. for me it heats up when i am not charging also..

@ bluelavender.. can you gimme a screenshot of your setup.. i do have setcpu.. but don't want to mangle with voltages without knowing much... and currently i have 2.6 angelom kernel and rocketrom v13
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanej2006:
Haha, don't worry, it's perfectly normal.

Reasons for the heat is due to the Amoled screen. When being used for long periods it tends to get toasty...

Expecially when gaming or web browsing it gets hot...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] adam1996wilson:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] danieldeanhodge:
I can't believe how much misinformation there is on this forum!

It's nothing to do with the AMOLED screen, it's the SoC. The CPU, by default, uses extraordinarily high voltages for 1.2 and 1.4ghz which can easily be toned down by 100mv and this makes a huge difference. Download Tegrak OC (on a stock kernel) or SetCPU on a custom kernel to change these settings.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Mine doesnt even go warm unless I charge and play.. this is probably the same issue with the S2 in where some units run a lot cooler than others. Just like desktop processors.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanej2006:
Of course it's down to the screen. As you mentioned it's also down to the cpu but screens cause heat, any screen does.

Every screen/monitor I've owned at home give out heat...

Do a simple test, play Angry Birds or any other game for a few minutes.

Then put the screen over your cheek and feel the HEAT coming from the screen.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] se1988:
In my old appartment i had a iron stove with a huge stone on top. whenever i used the stove, the stone got hot!! so that must mean that the stone was the source of the heat!!

Ehm, no. It is not the screen that is the source. It is the CPU. You can just as easily heat the device with the screen off, if you press the CPU to the limit. Of course the screen gets hot, but its not the source.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Zamboney:
Wow! Did you live in Africa to have a stove like that? Otherwise, I agree: of course it's the CPU and GPU causing the heat! It's quite obvious.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] saMMuel'sky:
Hi guys.

I don't want to open new thread for this, so I would like to ask you here.

I also recognized the heating problem on my Samsung Galaxy Note. And I don't have to play hard games etc, I can just surf on the web and do simple stuff on it to get hot (it feels hot for me) and also starts to smell a bit like heating electronics and plastic. :D

I can't remember, but I think that when I got my Note, when it was stock I didn't recognize that heating issue. First ROM that I put on was Darky ROM 3.3 and it works nice (no heating). After Darky ROM I flashed ICS Stunner and there those heating issues starts, as far as I remember. Then I went back on Stock 2.3.6. and now I'm on Stock 4.0.3 Open Germany ROM. The phone also gets hot on Stock ROMs now...

Hope there is any option to fix that problem, because it started to scary and worry me. :o

Thanks all for any help and answer!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] djkid:
after rooting and using different firmwares does cause the phone to go a little warm. you need to cut the power a lil bit. i myself tried various different rom and it bothered me with the heat issue. so i reverted back to stock. but since there are new builds coming every other day you can keep trying different build to the one that suits you.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
I've tried a few different ICS ROMS now and if they don't have battery life issues, they have home screen transition lag, app drawer lag, random reboots, screen flickering (like when it shuts off), app compatibility issues, etc... (some have all of those things, others just have one or two, you know what I mean) yet I always see a lot of posts in here about people praising X or Y ROM and somehow don't seem to have the same issues I have.

At first I wanted to call it an ID-10-T error on my part, but I'm doing full wipes and even using the wipe_all script on top of that, and this is my 5th or 6th Android phone, so it isn't like I lack experience flashing.

I've been using a stock, rooted 2.3.7 ROM + ADW EX and I'm in stability heaven. It's buttery smooth, no crashes, etc. I'm the kinda guy that'll go back to stock from a custom ROM the first time it gets laggy or randomly reboots. Stability and smoothness is everything to me. I really want to like ICS... but I don't have any good reason to force it upon myself right now if I can't find a stable ROM/kernel combination.

Anyhoo... what's the smoothest, most stable, ICS ROM for the Nexus S 4G? I expect to hear different opinions, but surely there would be some kind of consensus, right?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quick99si:
I'm looking for the same, and experiencing identical issues to you. I don't think it's an idiot error because as a result, but it seems to me that ICS roms have a long way to go in order to satisfy users like you and I.

The screen flicker appears to be a function of voodoo settings. I've tried a few kernels with no obvious differences, though I haven't messed w/ Voodoo as of yet. The lag seems to have been mitigated in entirety by using Launcher Pro instead of the ICS launcher, and general lag during homescreen and app drawer transition follows in the same path. OS lag, on the other hand, is much more obvious than in GB IMO.

It seems that the most stable/popular rom is oICSv43 paired with Eugene's kernel (ICUP). I'm using that kernel with CM9 (alpha19) by burnsra. Can't say I'm thrilled with it but I'll definitely be happy once this damn batch restore finishes without causing boot loops :(
