[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cline2:
Flash back to stock if brick. Flash CM7, MIUI, etc... just like Infuse 4g?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sheolrock:
I came from an Infuse and felt fairly at home on the Skyrocket.

My impression from reading forums is that more people have screwed up this phone than the Infuse because there are so many phones with the Galaxy S II name and people try to mix and match ROMs. Just be careful of that and you should be fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
Its because people do not read. Obviously there different devices. And common sense says dont flash anything from a different device. Mabye it will break mine. Or mabye i should read and find out if you can on certain devices. But nope nope nope. People dont read and apparantly have very little common sense. So they just flash wrong roms/kernels. Then complain about how its a developers fault or odins fault there brickd.

So bottom line is. Always know what your flashing before attempting to flash anything. Even themes
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cline2:
Yes I noticed people screwed up. Wrong roms. Good thing it can be fixed by return to stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
Actually alot of times ot can not be fixed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Logizar:
I have a question..?? Can the skyrocket be unlock for any GSM Carrier just like the Samsung Infuse by using either an app or editor?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
No the apps dont work. You gota pay a website like cellunlocker for the code

Does exist any mod or program from market that allows me to use radio without headphones.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
I doubt it because the headphones also double as an antenna. Without them quality wouldn't be great or even nothing at all.

hello!im looking for the best 16gb value for money micro SD

any suggestions?

thanks a lot :)
[General Accessories] daaain:
It's not the cheapest you can ever find, but I just got a really fast Samsung on Amazon, mine was from a 3rd party for £22 but it seems now Amazon itself is selling it for £18: www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Class-Micr...J5E2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326752524&sr=8-1

In any case, I'd suggest going for a faster (class 8-10) card, you'll thank yourself later :)

Anyone else have issues regarding the frame rate on their GNex? I haven't encountered the multitouch issue but I'd like the game to run smoothly. Ironically, an HD texture patch did help a little.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Are you using a kernel that overclocks the GPU to 384 MHz?

No lag for me as well. ROM/kernel in signature.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WalkingTaco:
None whatsoever running stock unrooted with HD textures installed. Smooth as butter
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] appledroid:
No I'm not, care to provide a link to what you're using?

EDIT: Nevermind thanks. i need to read more carefully.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Just note that kernel doesn't work on ARHD because ARHD is on 4.0.2. Kernel supports 4.0.3+

So you'll have to find a ROM thats using 4.0.3 (or modaco with 4.0.3 kernel support), or a kernel with 4.0.2 compatability. 4.0.3 also comes with optimizations that should help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
running ARHD with James Bond kernel 1.35 OC UV, the game run really smooth. patched.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] appledroid:
Guys wanted to post an update:

I applied the (only) 4.0.2 kernel (James Bond) OC'd at 1.4, I later decided I didn't need an OC so I used SetCPU to bring it back to 1.2 Ghz, and UV'd as well. The GPU OC made a *huge* difference. Thanks guys.

following are some of the guides and videos which lets u have the rough idea on compiling a ROM.

ok....am posting "some" of them. the comprehensive and important ones

first of all, find the github for the black.

check dis out fr an idea of compiling...http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/compile-ics. this is sheyen's guide. hez 1 f da best

check dis guide about compiling ICS on Ubuntu: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1354865

and dis one for compiling GB: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1183832 both of them are by dastin

take a look at this awesome porting guide by siulmagic (he was the 1 who ported ICS to the prehistoric G1 http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1312595

this1 is also real comprehensive and good:http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/h...ad-source.html

now, u can check dis 1 out: http://www.tabletroms.com/forums/ada...le-source.html this 1 is also elaborate guide for compiling on a VM.

AND the BEST OF ALL:CHECK these videos

i. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_H4AlQaNa0

ii.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFqEL...feature=relmfu

last of all, with some knowledge already,check out this guide for minor tweaking,error fixing and a layman's experience sharing while compiling from source.

http://journal.tianhao.info/2010/12/...-ubuntu-10-10/

for kernel compiling guide check dis 1 out:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1227241

the ones mentioned are a mere starting guide. dig google,the android source guide,etc etc for more knowledge. it is not that u have 2 be a pro in command terminal f linux/ubuntu,but it is expected u have some idea of it.

u will not become a DEV by taking these in.the DEVs are very knowledgeable and have very deep programming knowledge. this is just a guide for a person to start with. u will get an idea of the whole programming.

now, this is just a starting guide. u will need 3 things for common

a)a linux machine (may be a VM), but be sure to have ubuntu x64 and preferably 10.04 or higher.

b)some knowledge about building that u can get an idea of by reading nd viewing the source that i gave (obviously along with your own research)

c)TIME.

happy trying

there are many knowledgeable members on our forum, drop thema PM if u are stuck. they might help you out

none of them are written by me, but are collected from the internet into one place for those who want to know about compiling.

IF FIND ANY WRONG INFORMATION, OR A GOO GUIDE TO FOLLOW, POST OT IN THIS THREAD. IT MIGHT HELP SOMEONE WHO IS WILLING TO LEARN BUT IS LACKING A STARTING POINT. :)

I just installed root using the qbking77 latest method and now all of a sudden whenever I call a number (any number) it says I am not authorized. Any solutions? Thanks so much!

Is it stock rooted? did you flash any ROM after rooted?

Are you using Google voice for voicemail?I had a problem like that last week with my friends phone and it was because of Google voice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rapman543:
Why yes I am using Google Voice for my voicemail I believe. How did you solve your friend's problem? Thanks so much for the quick reply dude!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewalk4866:
That's the funny part. I don't really know what he changed to get it to start in the first place but all I do know was we changed some setting on the computer it was much easier to use the website then the phone. It was driving me nuts because I was flashing a rom at the time and out of no where the phone stopped working to I brought his phone to work on it and it just started to work. So I guess I would start by turning of Google voicemail in the settings and then you might have to give it a few to start to work then you should be good to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rapman543:
So you don't know which setting that he changed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewalk4866:
Nope we seemed to change them all but we ended up just disabling it at the end because he did not like Google voicemail anyway sorry I wish I new what would have really worked but all I do no is that Google voicemail was his problem at the end. sorry man but trust me that was the problem. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rapman543:
Alright I'll try messing with it and I'll see what the deal is. Thanks for your help though!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brianhot1:
It should be under settings/phones,you would do this from the google voice website once you sign in online the settings are on the far right,the tool icon.

I had Skype on my phone but it stopped working after it updated. I could recieve calls no problem and had video/voice chat. But everytime I tried to send a call it would fail after 3 rings.

So I decided I would uninstall and reinstall. Unfortunatley I am getting this error - "Insufficient Storage Available" when I try to install the app.

Posts on XDA don't have to be approved :-).

(Not for now at least *looks at SOPA*)

XDA puts trust in their users not to abuse this privilege.

Read up on what rooting is here.

Okay, now back to topic.

There are more partitions(areas) on your phone than what you can see with normal apps or in the settings.

It is possible that one of these is full and causing that message.

I'm not too familiar with your device but "/cache" could be on an extra partition and be full with half done market downloads.

But that would probably stop skype from downloading , not from installing.

Your internal storage which is "/data" might have space left, but it is possible that "/data/data" is on an extra partition that is full, and "/data/data" is where applications are usually stored.

You could go to Settings->Manage->Applications and tap on some apps and select "Clean Cache" (the internet browser is a good place to start).
[General Questions and Answers] umirin:
I cleared browser cache, market cache, and market data but that did nothing.

anymore suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] umirin:
well I read around on google and apparently this a very common problem.

the only method I have read though to fix it is rooting. I don't know anything about rooting as I stated in my OP. I know that rooting voids my warranty with rogers though and I don't want to screw anything up. I cannot afford another phone.

if anyone has another idea how to fix this problem that would be great.

Factory reset your device and try again, but thats a ****ty solution...
[General Questions and Answers] umirin:
Does factory reset wipe the apps that came with my phone?

tons of apps came with my phone like facebook, twitter, rogers navigation, google navigation, angry birds, voice search, etc.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
No factory reset will wipe everything you installed and changed.

To get rid of preinstalled apps, you will have to root :p-
[General Questions and Answers] zweeper:
This is going to sound ridiculous but I had the same problem installing several apps the last time I put on a new rom. It was resolved by rebooting the phone.

I'm REALLY upset right now

i went to futureshop like 3 weeks ago and asked if i could buy the galaxy nexus outright, they said yeah.

So i go today to buy it and they said they can't give it without me signing a contract.

i argue with them for a while saying i was told a few weeks ago i could, they said yeah it changed now.

so they're like you have to prepay 1 month, i'm like okay **** it ill just do it because i really need the phone.

After a while he says i still can't buy it!

WTF, im paying outright for it, PLUS paying the first month, he says sorry you still can't buy it because you have no credit history.

i just walked out, what else could i do.

i really wanted this phone and they wouldnt sell it to me :mad:

Like I mentioned yesterday,

Negri Electronics: https://negrielectronics.com/samsung-i9250-google-galaxy-nexus-black-unlocked.html

Newegg

I just walked into a Bell store the day it came out and bought it outright, my understanding Bell will do this for people who have an account with them and is in good standing, do you have a Bell account ? maybe this is their policy and that's why Futureshop would not sell it to you because your not a Bell customer already, you can always try fleabay

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING

my friend is a virgin mobile customer and i was gonna go with him to virgin to buy this phone, do you think they will sell it?

awh man, i don't wanna wait for shipping :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wingswrath:
if ur willing to pay for the phone outright u can get it from futureshop from virgin mobile though you gotta get a 1 month plan

this is what i did:

1) just say u wanna get the phone from virgin on SuperTab

2) after u get ur phone, cancel ur plan IMMEDIATELY by calling virgin (u need to give them 30day heads up), theres no fees or anything + u get a 5$ discount by paying ur months bill

ah and u pay the remainder of your tab at the end of the month*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] subxero123:
this is what the guy was doing for me first

after a while entering stuff in the system he said he can't sell it to me because i have no credit history

he knew this because he asked for my drivers license, should i just say i don't have one?

cuz im still young its believable that i don't have a driving license
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Most Verizon independent retailer do not sell phones out right. Mostly because it would be ripping the customer off.

Retailers buy their phones from Verizon at near retail value. So they buy a phone like the Nexus for $620 then sell the phone for $300 on the contract losing $320 on the phone. Verizon then pays a sizable commission on the line making your transaction profitable in the end for the retailer. Provided you pay your bill for the first 6 months.

Verizon has a limit on how many of each device the retailer can order within a time period. Because of this the retailer wants to make the most of the phones they get. In order to make the same profit selling a phone out right as they would if you signed a two year contract they would need to mark the phone up to nearly $1000. That is obviously ripping you off because you can get it cheaper somewhere else.

The sales person should have been clear up front and let you know they just don't sell phones out right.

Some of your big box stores that get a much higher allotment might not mind selling at near cost.

I am not sure if you are in the US or not but thought I would share that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Negri or expansys. Or wait til February and see what's up with the 32GB version. The 16gb version might go down in price so this might be a good thing for you.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
are you a negri shill? damn.

---------- Post added at 09:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 PM ----------

if 16gb is enough, it might, keyword might, be more economical to wait and let the 32 gb one come out. expansys told me the 32gb is probably going to be over $800 to ship to the usa. but then again, it might come out here in the usa at that time so it might be a little cheaper. but if you have the cash dude, and can't wait, get it imported. it's a damn good phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
I'm not a "negri shrill" in any form or way. Just helping the OP get the Galaxy Nexus at the cheapest price available. It's simply a customer experience.

Why would I tell the OP to get it from Expansys or any other website if this one particular website offers it at a cheaper price? If you can find a price that is cheaper than what that store has to offer, then go ahead.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] subxero123:
lol yeah, i really appreciate you helping me out man

thing is, i don't have a credit card either which is another reason im buying it locally

i could ask my parents but they'll freak out seeing how much i pay for a phone LMAO
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
but dude, it's like you keep mentioning negri, negri and more negri everywhere. cheaper is not always better. and i had a great experience with expansys. maybe he lives in nevada and doesn't want to pay sales tax. or illinois. all i'm saying is i see somebody mention another vendor and you're right there with negri. :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
OP lives in Canada, it says it on his profile. I don't understand why you have to start drama over the internet. Do you have something against their company? Both companies offer the same product, so why not grab the one that's going to save you a couple of dollars if both companies offer fast shipping?

I've had friends bought from Expansys as well, and I know they have great customer support as well. Both companies are great, but the $10-25 price difference can put a difference if a person wishes to make the purchase or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
not starting drama. it just seems like you're there to promote negri every chance you get. seems weird ya know? both are fine. and if he's in canada illinois is closer. :rolleyes:

[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
Well, all of the roms are based off of stock that are debloated and some have a few extra tweaks built in. I have tried Nil's business ginger rom , Bamf Rom , Rez rom and now Scrosler's Clean rom. They all use stock kernel except Rez rom and that kernel froze me up a few times so I flashed back to stock kernel and Clean rom.

Just try them out and see what you like best.
[HTC Rezound] andybones:
Inefilbilis easily has the best tweaks and is the #1 ROM to run.

Bamf is #1.

I highly suggest them both.
