[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Yeah I've seen a report or two on here from people who have used his service & have been happy. Must admit I found his page when thought I'd bricked my phone after my first flash attempt messed up. Yeah you might be able to get it done cheaper somewhere local, and that will mean less time without the phone for you without the phone in mail from you to the US & back again.

Let us know how you get on, your experience will be a good guide for people in future who have the same problems as you.

No probs man, happy to give you the little help I did. You too Alex :-) Hope you have a great year & you get your phone back & working soon ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexdonc:
Hello again. Solved right now. The service didn't charged me at all - I was kind of lucky after all. Unfortunately there are still some issues I have from the start. I'll keep on digging :) - software related.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cuyabro:
Hi, can anyone tell me is there is something i have to do in order to connect my prime to my tv?.

I used to be able to do it with my xoom but for some reason i can't see anything with my prime.

Thanks in advance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] droidx2.3.3:
Nope. Just plug in your micro hdmi into the prime and the other end intothe tv. That all i needed to. It should be the same for you
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cuyabro:
that's weird, i can't see anything. another issue with this thing man.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] droidx2.3.3:
What doyou mean you "cant see anything" are you sure the tv is set to hdmi. What does the prime say/do?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
Hdmi is one feature that does work (just plug and play). If yours does not you may have a dud cable, dud hdmi port on he tv or the prime. My first bet is on user error (make sure you're on correct input, etc) and the second is on a dud cable.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cuyabro:
i'm sorry, i just found out the cable is the problem, thanks for the replies guys.

So the tittle says it all i have Tmobile and i am getting a new phone soon and i have a few questions my heart was set on the Galaxy S2 because it is really the fasted phone on the network the only other one i saw that was comprable was the HTC amaze (let me know if i am wrong). But i do have concern's mainly because the phone is a special version and not officialy supported by ROMs like Cyanogen MOD or Miui which really sucks... ok

1. What ROMs and Kernel's are the best and why according to you ??

2. Do you notice a lack of development because we are a specialized version of the S2????

3. basically anything else i need to know know tips advice??? I would also like to know the downside to the phone are there any phones i should also look at, anything really ??????
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] g1user101:
i go with Juggernaut rom because its fast and stable. and good battery life also.

more devs are coming over in the next months. they are slowly getting the phone to dev with.

and i say go for it. theres not much new phones coming out for another couple or more months. the s2 is a great phone and is one of the best phones i hav ever used. it just lacks the dedicated camera button like the amaze
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] eight_heads:
Kind in mind it looks like development is picking up, cyanogen is supposed to be officially supported soon, and as soon as we have a good cm7 we'll have MIUI
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dislplin01:
Thanks guys I didn't know it was going tip get official support that would be great I welcome any other input to those reading this I really can't wait to get this phone and join this phones community
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] g1user101:
dont worry. we already have some good devs. but more are coming over to s2, so dont worry about the development. just get the phone:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] audscott:
I hope I don't get pelted with snowballs, but I'll warn you of one problem that seems to be fairly regularly reported: Lines and anomalies on the screen. Do a search on "screen" in general & Q&A to get a better idea.

I don't have this issue, just "lucky" I guess, or maybe it's not as prevalent or common as some would have us believe......but, if you decide to get this beauty, and I love mine (came from HD2), be sure you are armed with methods to weed out any screens that have this problem before you leave the store (assuming you're not buying online) - and I suggest you go to a store under the aforementioned warning.

I hope I helped and scared you away - I'm sure you'd be a wonderful addition to our community.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dislplin01:
Thank you i will look into that screen thing cause that is a big deal i will be ordering it cause its cheaper but it will be from costco or wall mart so i will be able to return it in 30 days so i will check it out
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Djapatos:
Got this phone, rooted after 2 days and install Bombardier 3.5 ... And never look back.

Personally, when lookin for ROM battery life is my priority cause i spent most my days out... Having said so that Bombardier ROM is the best rom i have ever used when it comes to battery life on any android phones... I always go over 17 hours a day with moderate use... no UV or OC. AS I am typing this its 104 AM and i have 18hrs 12mns life with 22% left and brightness at 50% As for speed, it is also fast... And perfectly stable. The only thing i have done is install the ICS theme and the ICS launcher...

So if u are like me and care a lot about battery life this is the only ROM for u.

PS as for the so called screen issue, after readin on here i ve decided not to even check to see if i have it. Because after readin all the steps necesary to check if u have the screen issue i figured it doesnt really matter for me cause i dont see anythig my phone is always at 50% brightness

Hope that helps and good luck :)

What i mostly wanna know is about data seeds. Which ice is better, and pictures a are a must. Speedtest.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
In the case of data speeds, it will be the skyrocket. The GSII does not support LTE but the GSII Skyrocket does. I don't feel like pictures are necessary with that explanation.
[General Questions and Answers] mike21pr:
Data speeds = Skyrocket

Everything else = SGS2

[General Questions and Answers] quarlow:
Are you in an LTE market?

If no, then the Skyrocket is no faster than the i777. IIRC even on HSPA+ the SR will use more battery than i777, if not due to inactive LTE radio then due to screen being bigger, plus higher speed less efficient processor.

If you are in a LTE market, you can try them both yourself, you get 30 days to decide. If you aren't in a LTE market the decision should be easy.

[General Questions and Answers] Starseed:
No cause i want lte kind of speeds. Im around the area of Springfield ma, and i just wonder if distance or anything else an effect the data speeds. I get around 3-4 bars. Is it worth it to go to the skyrocket, or should i stay?
[General Questions and Answers] Starseed:
Are both lte and HSPA+ the same when compared to speed, or distance?
[General Questions and Answers] quarlow:
Whether I have one bar or 5 bars, I always get the same speeds. At home in a HSPA+ area I average 1.5-2.5. What's really sad is that is faster than the broadband connection available to me for my home. If I lived on the other side of the street I could get cable and 40Mbps speed, but my side of the street is only DSL and 1.5 at that.

[General Questions and Answers] thekurrgan:
Sorry to grave dig this thread, but it exists and is on topic with what I was wondering..

I've used the Skyrocket, and am wondering if there IS a difference between it and the SGS2 in plain HSPA+ mode.

Heres the reason I am curious:

I have an Atrix 2, and it does quite well on speeds.. pulls between 7 - 11mbit consistently at night at my house, with a latency of 147 average.

The skyrocket does basically the same, however its latency is betwen 75 and 95 consistently. I am wondering what some SGS users are getting for latency and down stream, and if any skyrocket users could chime in as well.. Perhaps see if the radio is of a different caliber in the SR VS the SGS2

Obviously I dont live in any of the 5 places LTE works, but use my phone to tether quite a bit and am going to get one of the SGS2 phones, just want to get the best one for HSPA+. Not banking on LTE being any where near me for about a decade.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] fisterkev:
Anybody know a good app that I can use to do bluetooth tethering with the A100 off of my phone (Droid X on Verizon)? I am not rooted on either and mobile hotspot is disabled on the phone by Verizon.

I use PDAnet with my netbook but the PDAnet for tablets doesn't seem to work (it will pair with but not connect with phone). Looking for other apps to try...

Thanks.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] linuxman008:
I do believe that all the droid devices can actually do Bluetooth tethering from within the settings app, look for Droid Life's article on that. Also, getting the pdanet for tablets to work correctly is, well, difficult.

To make it work, the devices have to be paired in the default settings on both devices, then the have to both be discoverable in the settings app (it makes it discoverable for 120 seconds.) After this, while both are still discoverable, and have been paired (should say paired but not connected in the settings app) Run the server on the phone. Next, do the proxy thing it asks you to do (if it doesn't take you to a proxy menu, push back until your back at pdanet, and push it again, you'll see the proxy menu this time) Now search for it on the tablet, its best to do this in portrait mode so you can see all of the clients at once. Once there, your phone will appear if all the prior steps are active and still working. Tada, connection.

Sadly, you can't use any of the google apps (youtube, gmail, market, ect.) due to the odd proxy settings it asked you to do before connecting, so only the browser (or dolphin browser, if you use that) will detect you have a connection, and let you use it. You can browse the web, use youtube (using the youtube site, not the app), and check your email (again, with its site, not the app). Another limitation is that you cannot download files. But, if all you want to do is browse the web on your tab, since its faster, it'll do fine.

Or you could use the better option, root the phone, throw up a wifi hotspot, and then connect to it, then all apps will work correctly.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] andreagragnato:

How would I transfer my IE browser favorites to the GNex browser? I can use Chrome as an intermediary if that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ScooterG:
Using Chrome is exactly how you need to do it.

-Import bookmarks from IE into Chrome.

-Sign into Chrome and sync bookmarks.

-Under Accounts and Sync, be sure to have the same account added that you signed in under Chrome and select the option to Sync Bookmarks.

Why did they make the sdcard folder on the internal ram? All my apps write to arcade not ed_ext. Titaniumbackup, Rom manager, browser, you name it. Not to mention a factory wipe in cwm wipes the arcade folder. Am I missing something? Are the devs going to fix this within the Rom?
[HTC Rezound] jjenkins2005:
Great question... This gets on my nerves.... It wasn't this way on my Droid Charge and boom I saw it on my Bionic and now the Rezound...
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
That is because we are using a Unix file structure. (EXT/2/3/4) Unix (and its derivatives) see drives (USB drives, extra internal drives, SD cards, etc) as folders/files not as devices. There are ways to make these devices appear to show up as a device rather than a folder to the user, but at its core it is still treated as a folder by the kernel.

Desktop linux file structure has all extra storage devices listed as folders in the /media folder of the / (root) partition of the file system.

This structure is also why we have the /system and /data partitions in Android. Its another throw over from the linux base (desktop linux is usually / and /user or /home)

Seems there is no consistancy between OEMs and how they tell the file system to arrange user storage. Some have /SDCARD1 /SDCARD2 and HTC has the external card listed inside the internal memory. It could be that the internal memory is mapped to the /media of regular linux.
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
/sdcard is a symbolic link (shortcut) for /mnt/sdcard and /sdcard2 is a symlink for /mnt/sdcard/ext_sd
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
So really they are all the same, just how they choose to link the location is different. Either way, that is just how linux works.

[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
considering the available storage does it really matter where the data goes?

I've just htcdev unlocked my bootloader (which wipes the phone) and it didn't touch the internal sd card or sd card2. Installing a ROM that wipes the device did not either.

So what's the big deal where it goes? I use the internal storage for apps and game data and my 32gb sd card for media and roms.
[HTC Rezound] WookieFan:
And all that really means is that, if your application writes data to a different location, you just copy the data to your SD card. Not really a lot of work. Got used to it with my Dell Streak 7...
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:
When I did a few wipes, it did wipe my sdcard folder. That is problem 1. #2 is then I have to config all my apps that default to sdcard. #3 I have to now backup sdcard and sdcard2. #4 wah I don't want change.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
That's what I read, so I backed it up, but htcdev didn't wipe it on my device (does a factory reset when unlocking), and it wasn't wiped when I installed chingy's rom (that auto wipes), so I don't know why some are experiencing this.

Not to mention that wiping with amon ra also does not delete the internal sd card.

Does the iBolt car dock have a 3.5mm audio out? I've seen a few sites who's spec's indicate it does, however it looks similar to the Verizon one, and I have my doubts.

If no: Any car docks for the Rezound out with audio out? Is this even possible through the USB port? Should I be looking to upgrade my stereo with one that supports Bluetooth?

Thanks all,

Drew

As a side note: I've seen the charging problems with both VZW and iBolt docks, and the fix - My girlfriend and I are both very handy with a soldering iron, so I'm hoping I can fix that without much trouble.
[HTC Rezound] a-jive:
I believe they are one in the same. I have the VZW branded one and it says ibolt on the box.

The mount does not interfere with the audio jack on the phone, so no need for a new stereo... sorry!

Can you link to the fix for the charging? I have not come across that yet... but it is a real issue.
[HTC Rezound] CNTP-DT:
I'll have to track down that thread, but I'm pretty sure it was on XDA. The fix involves shorting pins 2&3 (i think, don't try it yet!) on the phone connector inside the dock. This tells the phone that it's connected to a high-amperage source, and it can draw more power. If you do this, you, of course, want a 1A or greater charger. The best fix would be to pass pins 2&3 through from the phone connector to the charger connector, but that's more work.

I'll see if I can track down the thread and link it.
[HTC Rezound] Kane5581:
http://www.craigsdocks.com/htc-rezound-car-dock-swivel-style/

Had the I ibolt but returned it because of the charge issue and because the suction cup mount couldn't articulate into the position I needed it to. I bought the mount in the link above, it is far better, I mounted it with the fixed mount but I also bought the suction cup mount an it is also a better design than the ibolt and would have worked where I wanted it but I found a Better spot for the fixed mount.
[HTC Rezound] CNTP-DT:
This thread references the problem and a generic fix, I couldn't find the one that was specific to the dock. Perhaps the thread was from a different handset or a different forum.

do you have to recalibrate battery stats with the extended battery or does battery stats take a back seat to the fuel gauge chip in the battery? i haven't received mine yet but am very curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljmunz:
Just received my extended battery today and wondering this as well. Anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biz79:
I'm thinking of getting the VZW extended battery and I was wondering about how the phone will handle different sized batteries especially if I'm switching back and forth.

I'm under the impression that the battery indicator shown on the phone is an estimation based off time to charge/discharge the current battery.

So if i get an extended battery, and the battery indicator is estimated off the extended battery discharge rate, would putting the original battery make the phone think it has more power left than it really does?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
that is what we are trying to find out. if it automatically picks up the battery through the chip and does it automatically adjust battery stats or do they have to be redone.
