[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunlaw2:
Because power button is busted.

Not trying to remap in order to use genius/dragon.

Trying to remap power button to genius which is possible while on, but can't use the remapped button to turn device on.

Problem is...

Can't reliably turn device on with power button,so another(working) button is needed.

Genius is remapped to power,but once off the "power" remains the power button.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC Glacier:
In that case why not use trackpad? You can still keep all functions for home, menu, back, search. But have trackpad single click as select and long press as power button menu? Would you like that?

Of course.

What is the other 700MB being used for?

Seems very high for OS etc., especially considering there are Gingerbread devices with only 512MB (Wildfire S etc.) and they still have a few hundred MB for apps etc.

I would've thought Sense would need more space than SE's customisations aswell.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] neroyoung:
What sony Ericsson has said is correct and what you saw is also correct

When you see specs in Se website,it say 1 GB internal means 1 GB default Memory/RAM but when you look at your phone it shown different because default Memory/Ram is used by system software and scripts and this varies between phone.

1 GB is default amount and when SE installed OS it got reduced by some amount,when you start the phone the phone loads all its software and processes in that default amount so it again get reduced and now you install your softwares and run apps so it gets reduced again so over all you get 300 MB for your self ...

I have Sk17i with 512 Internal,out of which i get 420 MB free but when i start phone i get 320 MB free for my self ...

I hope you understand :)

Don't forget to hit thanks if you find it useful ....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] j4nn:
You need to consider what storage space is talked about.

There is internal flash occupied by android system and applications, which is persistent. Than there is RAM, which usage depends on what applications are currently running (non persistent type of 'storage').

And there is external storage - sd card - which contains additional data. There is lot of stuff coming with the new phone. That stuff should not really be needed - there are some intro videos in multiple languages, documentation, pc companion sw, ...

I guess that the sdcard content may be erased altogether (if the sd is mounted in PC while phone is connected via USB, the phone does not use the SD card and still runs).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] juux:
I'm aware of the different kinds of memory in use in modern phones. For the Ray this means:

512MB RAM - Not what I'm talking about - Used by running processes.

4GB External storage - Not what I'm talking about - SD card used for additional storage (media mainly, plus some apps) and basically empty when phone is new. 4GB is supplied with Ray and but be swapped out with cards up to 32GB, although not easily after you've installed apps to it.

1GB Internal storage - This is the storage I'm talking about - Used to hold phone OS, default applications etc., with some left over for user data (apps, media etc.), commonly quoted as being 1GB in the Ray (although interestingly not by SE themselves...) with 'up to 300MB free' for user data.

Most review sites quote the 1GB internal storage figure, although after checking the SE site I'm inclined to think that 512MB would seem more in line with the free internal storage quoted.

Having said that, the Ray's closest cousins (Arc, Play etc.) are all quoted has having 1GB by SE and they too are only quoted as having 3-400MB free for user apps.

Compare this to a phone like the HTC Sensation and things start looking weird. It too ships with 1GB storage yet has ~800MB free out of the box. Most other phones are similar, regardless of the size of the internal storage, i.e. 2-300MB used for OS and baked-in apps.

SE seem to need 700+MB for effectively the same thing.

Anyone know what is going on here?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] juux:
Ignore me...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:

Hi guys,

I'm hoping someone can offer some advice.

I'm running a non-rooted, GSM, stock 4.0.1 Galaxy nexus. My phone restarted on its own and is now stuck in an infinite boot loop. I did several battery pulls to turn the phone off. Turning it on again, it gets stuck in the boot loop never reaching the homescreen.

Any ideas?:confused:

thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
Well you could grab an Odin flash file and reset your phone from download mode. When powering on the fone hold volume down and power.

Also could hold both volume buttons and power when turning on to go into fast boot mode where you could try flashing a stock image through fastboot from your pc

Get into a bootloader and factory reset your phone.

It was happening to my gn everytime I put it in my pocket. Why I don't know. I put my gn in perfectly working condition in my pocket and when I pulled it out wanting to, say, take a picture, it was looping.

Been to the store, called tech supp... nobody knows why.

That all stopped after I unlocked, rooted and flashed a custom rom. Not one crash ever since (10 days)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TarnWilliamson:
Hey everyone. I am very interested in rooting, and hopefully flashing once i have done the basic root first. Please can you answer each question :) I have an Orange branded SGS GT-i9000. Here are the specs:

FW Version: 2.3.5

Baseband Version: I9000BVJV3

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-I9000BVJVC-CL679241 root@DELL138 #2

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.BVJVC

Question 1: do i need to know the whole of the kernel or just part of it?

Question 2: I always see rooting guides saying 'How to root (FW version) JV(something). Where does the JV come from, as i have 2 types of JV, JV3 and JVC. So what does rooting depend on other than firmware version?

Question 3: I have noticed the Orange firmware is a different JV. So how do i know the root will work with my version as the root guides are always on stock roms?

Thanks in advance : )

You may try with Super one click root or try to flash your rom with odin to STOCK ROM (i have I9000xxjvu for example) and use CFROOT for your rom with PDA in odin. That gives u the root accsess, superuser and busybox ( CFroot IS A KERNEL) it is many subject on XDA. :)

Hello Marcinrek21, Thank you for your reply. As my Build number ends with jvc isnt there a specific file I need to flash with if using Odin? Or am I mistaken and I can flash with any cf root file as long as it is for a gt19000? As for super one click is that still compatibable with 2.3.5 as I remember reading somewhere the bootloader may be locked with gingerbread? Thank you in advance.
