I derped up

So I think I figured out why I couldn't get out of the boot loop. I believe its because I didn't start from stock(derp!).

Running any i9000 rom (without a specific t959d kernel) would change the key set for recovery would it not? So my guess is because I was on darkys, when I attempted to do recovery mode it wouldn't work because I wasn't using the hard home button which my phone doesn't have!

Haven't had time to test this theory out, got a lot of studying to do this weekend. I'll post the results after I try flashing from stock...
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
That makes perfect sense actually - usually that's the issue with those things not working, but was pretty sure I could get into recovery on Darky's with that combo - although tried it the other day (as I was in a boot loop) and it didn't work - I pulled the battery and eventually it fixed itself.

Pulling the battery is always worth a try :)

Hey Guys,

I've been a lurker on these forums for years. I've successfully installed a multitude of Roms includeding MIUI and CM7. I just successfully installed ICS and I have a quick question.

I've added my gmail and exchange account, but for some reason my contacts and email are not being synced. I'm currently on Wifi. Any suggestions?

Also, my reception is terrible, I'm wondering if somebody could direct me to where I can download a compatible modem, and the way to install it. I've never done it before.

Thanks :-)
[Fascinate General] bucknetbucky:
This rom is cm based so any cm7 modem will work. I use perkas file store to get mine (app installed with the add on).
[Fascinate General] 08cherd4:
Thanks! so would I use an I9000 ICS modem then? for example the Modem_TLJL3_ICS.CM.I9000.zip

or a 959d one?
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
Any MIUI or CM7 ROM would work - search the XDA there's a list - I use a KC1 modem.
[Fascinate General] bucknetbucky:
Yes and I had him add an 850 enabled folder for us :)
[Fascinate General] shane203:
How do you tell what modem to flash for your area?
[Fascinate General] bucknetbucky:
Just try them and see what works best
[Fascinate General] avtaxi:
no service after flashing

Hi the rom looks impressive but after flashing I have no service.:confused: Do i have to flash a modem or what else do I need. thanks
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
Have you gone into your mobile settings to ensure you have a carrier selected? That happened on my last install.
[Fascinate General] bucknetbucky:
Check under the status :-) in settings and see if you have an imei. If you do not then you will be flashing to stock again and starting over. If you do have to then make sure to backup the folder then flash and restore. Happened to me twice and now i restore no matter what
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
ROMs are definitely a personal preference thing, but you may want to check out our Onecosmic thread - my preferred ROM :)
[Fascinate General] lastcall3:
Where did you find the KC1 modem that works with the surface rom? I have found a couple, but want to make sure I am flashing the correct file. A link to the KC1 you use would be very helpful.

Thanks!!
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
Use Perka's stash. Check out my one stop thread, there's links there.

Where I can buy a battery for my Folio?
[Folio 100 Accessories] samveen:
I found some batteries on ebay at http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Ori...8-battery-PA3836U-1BRS-PABAS238-/270859820087 . On contacting the seller he said that the batteries were original Toshiba manufactured (or made by their OEM for batteries), and thus had original Toshiba labeling. However, the battery was identical to the existing one, not a larger capacity battery. Any found larger capacity batteries?

Battery life fix from 2,5 hours to 5,5 hours!

I bought a used folio and in the original OS it had battery life of 2,5 hours after couple of complete charges. I then installed ICS CM9 and no change in battery life, the device shut itself off after 2,5 hrs.

Well after Googling I decided to try the battery stats reset in CWM. After 100% charge I did the battery stats reset in CWM and went to ICS to test the battery. After about 2,5 hours battery meter was showing 6%. 3hrs still 6%. 4hrs still 6%. 5hrs still 6%. Only after about 5,5hrs it dropped to 5% and about 15mins after that it was 1% and my device shut itself off. What an improvement! And I was using wlan and watching videos etc practically the whole time!

To fix the battery meter showing 6% for several hours I have used the device many times from 100% to lower than 6% and then charging the folio with power on. Now it shows 6% only for 45mins or so and I bet after couple more cycles it will be perfect! Then ill run it to 0% once more to be sure to make use of the whole battery.

So before you buy a new battery this is definately worth a try.

PS. You don't want to drain the battery to 0 % very often because this too will have a negative effect on battery life. Maybe once every 20 cycles is ok.
[Folio 100 Accessories] masual:
Wow, I'll try to reset it on CWM and see what happens. With a normal use is lasting about 3 hours before shutting down.
[Folio 100 Accessories] daveheart14:

[Nexus S General] Gilg@mesh:
Hello

My friend have a Nexus S (9020A) the problem is when the battery dies it's impossible to charge the phone, it won't turn on! I have tried with a lot of batteries now and it kills all of them! it works like normal when you don't let the battery die completely but it should not do this anyway, what is wrong?
[Nexus S General] Shark_On_Land:
I think I know what your talking about.

The phone consumes more power than it receives when its using data. Do if your at 5% and charging, but also using the internet. You will last for mere minutes.

Best thing to do is to simply let it charge and not touch it when its doing so. You can still hotspot,text talk. But streaming music, data apps (like tapatalk or skype) and web browser WILL KILL YOUR BATTERY WHILE YOU CHARGE.

But if your saying it won't charge. Sorry. No idea
[Nexus S General] marcelnn:
What? That's just nonsense.
[Nexus S General] gsvnet:
If you turn the phone off and then try to charge it with the battery in, you're not able to charge it?
[Nexus S General] Gilg@mesh:
no, the phone kills the batteries, I would have test the batteries on other phone if I had, but atm I just have the Nexus S, it won't let me charge the batteries when they are dead.. if there is 1% left I can charge but when it dies it's dead forever... there must be something wrong with the phone, right?
[Nexus S General] Harbb:
Try wiping battery stats?
[Nexus S General] Gilg@mesh:
don't work.. when battery have some % left the phone works like normal... but if I let it die, then it's dead.. I can't even turn on the phone, it's like there is no battery inserted.
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
The phone should shut down automatically when the voltage reaches a certain threshold. Is the phone not doing this? These batteries are not meant to drop below a certain voltage and doing so could damage them.
[Nexus S General] kyokeun1234:
Wait, does this mean I have to turn my wifi and data off whenever I'm charging my phone? Bulls right there...
[Nexus S General] evcz:
This ^^

Are you running a modded rom/kernel/calibration tool that let your battery go below the min voltage threshold?
[Nexus S General] Gilg@mesh:
The phone have doing the same with all type of ROMS, CM7, Stock Google Gingerbread and now ICS.
[Nexus S General] Braneless:
No, just go ahead and ignore anything Shark_On_Land posts - he's a slightly slow middle-schooler who claims to be a "developer".

Snt frm my Nxs S 4G sng xd prm
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
so does it auto shutdown or not?
[Nexus S General] Gilg@mesh:
yes I mean when battery dies all phones shutdown or have I missed something? problem is I can't charge the battery when that happens.
[Nexus S General] Bradart:
This is so insanely inaccurate. Using the hotspot is one of the most battery intensive operations the phone can carry out. Streaming music, Skype, and browsing don't even hold a candle to it. The only thing that comes close would be navigation (and that can be even worse sometimes), followed by talking on the phone by a pretty decent, but not massive margin. It also depends on the charger. Where do you get your information?
[Nexus S General] indian21r:
if the phone is doing the same with all type of ROMS, then it may be hardware related issue.

I have been running various Roms since the start but never faced this issue. A lot of times battery has drained fully. With some of the new roms that are there my phone lasts more than a day with Data on Roaming full time.
[Nexus S General] B-Digital:
I know most phone batteries will not be chargeable if you deplete them completely. Usually this happens by throwin it in the drawer and not using it for a long time but ive never heard of it happening just by using the phone. Id say its definitely a hardware issue

[HTC Amaze 4G] mleet1980:
I'm planning on getting this device shortly & was wondering if the stock kernel will work with most of the roms developed here? I'm just trying to do my homework so I can be ready when I have it in hand. I'm so ready to ditch the g2x.
[HTC Amaze 4G] djdeviance:
TBH I haven't seen a stock kernel NOT work with a Custom ROM. The only thing is some of the features i.e. Wifi Calling may not work. So it's always best to flash the recommended to avoid boot loops or bugs.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eliasadrian:
I just looked at four of the most popular ROMs, and in less than five minutes read that only one of them said stock kernel was ok. The other three say to flash either faux's kernel, xboarder's newest kernel, or the included boot.img in the download.

But yes the stock kernel will work but like just mentioned it will have limited functionality. In my opinion, read what the dev says in their OP and throughout their thread, but a whole thread on this isn't necessary.

I don't mean to be rude, just saying it like it is. Welcome!
[HTC Amaze 4G] mleet1980:
Thanks for ur replys guy's. I have always used the stock kernel with every rom on every device I've used. I'm new to flashing kernels & every time I tried flashing a kernel I've always had issues. Thanks again for ur answers.

My coworker is on Verizon, he said that Verizon wants to charge like $2.99 per month if you use Google Voice for voicemail message ? I can not believe that ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Royal2000H:
I haven't heard of that..

They have a charge for visual voicemail through verizon's visual voicemail app. But GV is free..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chaoscentral:
good reason to not believe it because it isnt true. VZW doesnt charge for Google Voice, but they do charge 2.99 for Visual Voicemail.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trueislander:
Agreed, they can only charge extra with Data if you're going over your limit. I think Sprint is the only carrier that ports numbers as a service.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stadsport:
Like others are saying, it sounds like your coworker is confused. Verizon does charge $2.99 for visual voicemail. However, you can use Google Voice for your voicemail service for free. That's what I do!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VivianC:
There isn't a charge for Google Voice but it isn't officially supported on Verizon. A rep may have told him that or he may have seen the message trying to set it up and then got told about Verizon Visual Voicemail which is $2.99 extra.

I've had Google Voice since the OG Droid with no charges.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Is_907:
Repeating for good measure... your coworker is confused.

I use GVoice for everything on my GN and Verizon isn't getting a red cent for my voicemail or texts.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bp787:
I'm looking for a better set of in-ear ear buds for the skyrocket than the ones that came with it.

Any recommendations?

Try this site, http://www.headphone.com/index.php
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
Klipsch s4a. The best noise canceling in ear buds. I use all the time and for $99 you can't ask for more. The best in market for that price.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rawb123456:
I concur.... with klipsch you will hear every part of the music.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Fortune090:
I use Ultimate Ears Triple.Fi 10's for mine. Got them on sale for $90 on Amazon a little while back. Worth every freaking penny... If you ever see them on sale like that again, I would HIGHLY recommend it. Best earphones I've ever, ever used...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bp787:
so do both of the above have buttons/mics that work well? I've noticed with two other headsets that they had problems with noise, in comparison with the stock headsets.

For example, using a skull candy (not the best) set, when driving the voice recognition would often not work. Whereas, the stock pair would.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Fortune090:
If you get the UE TF10's on sale, you have to get a cord with a mic for it (cords are swappable/replaceable), but yes, it works great. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
Klipsch s4a are specially made for Android devices. So you are good with the best noise canceling in ear buds.

Right?!? Haha. I'm in the same boat with my UE's and I seriously love em more than any pair I've ever used...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dpos21:
My recommendation would be to plan on spending a little money. For one thing, it will be worth it and two it might take a couple sets of buds to find a pair that fit right.

Also, for me, I don't use a mic on ear buds. I'd recommend the Backbeat 903s for phone calls. They really work great this way and I was never a fan of bluetooth earpieces before them. They also double as headphones but I found when I had an iPhone that they didn't always work as well with the phone in the pocket. I just got my Skyrocket so I need to test them out. I usually use my PX 200 II Bs for music though because they travel well for over-the-ear headphones and sound better for music than the 903s.

Those S4s someone recommended do look nice though. Amazon has a good price on the non-mic version (just S4). I'm almost tempted to buy them
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] olicea:
The Klipish image s4 look promising, I read the review for the non mic ones and look great. The s4a are even better since they have mic and volume controls compatible with android.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] enigma00:
I like the Klipsch S4a (especially for the price), but it is NOT noise CANCELLING. It's noise ISOLATING.

On the SR (and SGS2 for that matter), the Klipsch doesn't shine though. The IEM already produces somewhat bright sound and muddy midrange, and the SR's tendency to muffle sound doesn't really help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Doltek:
It all depends on what sounds good to you! I am a beats by Dr. Dre fan and have a pair of the pro studio. I do also have a BlueAnt headset for the calls. I find it really easy to slide the headset in and fold the one headphone back a bit.

It all depends on you! I personally would use the headphones of your liking and either hold the phone towards your face and you can hear what the other end is saying via headphones; or just grab a Bluetooth headset like I have.

I would also strongly recommend an a media player that has an equalizer. I personally use Winamp Pro. but there are tons out there!

Shure SE215

I love my Shure SE210's. I've had them for a few years now. Only problem is that they are strictly phones, and not a headset. The newer model has detachable wires that can be replaced with a microphone/headset wiring. The SE215 looks to be about the same price as the aforementioned Klipsch S4A. Plus, the Shure phones are higher impedence, and considering the headphone output on this phone is pretty high, I'm not sure how good those Klipsh will sound.

Ok, we have numerous reports of GPS not holding lock after upgrading to Honeycomb.

This thread is for the purpose of identifying the resolution to this issue.

To begin with I'll start with asking for details from those of you who are encountering the issue and also those who are not.

What I want to know is, what software you were running and also exactly how you got to that version. For example ist is not sufficient to say you did my S-OFF upgrade, I also need to know the device (wifi or 3g) and version of the upgrade you used and whether you switched from a different version of the software to your current version.

For example, something like this:

Not Working: US Wifi Flyer, S-OFF, originally upgraded with the WIFI package built from 3.55.405.1 3G package, re-flashed with the US wifi OTA.

Casual observation seems indicate that it is all or mostly Wifi flyers that are affected.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Kudzus:
Had trouble with my US Wifi Flyer, S-OFF, originally upgraded with the WIFI package built from 3.55.405.1. Updated that to us OTA package and still had trouble.

Started all over downgraded to GB then went straight to Globatron’s latest (the big file)

Working now
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Thanks, this is consistent with my working assumption which is that it affects WIFI flyers that were flashed with the 3g ROM.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] timropp:
I have the US wifi flyer. S-Off, installed the 3.55.405.1 3G package followed by Leedroid rom. GPS was no good. Went back to the 3.55.405.1 3G package (from nandroid backup) and GPS no good.

Then installed the US WiFi rom. GPS is fine. Installed Leedroid and GPS is still fine.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vince2008:
hi globaltron,

US BB Wifi Flyer, S-OFF, originally upgraded with the HC WIFI package built from previous RUU_flyer_wifi_B10.zip, then installed LeeDrOiD HC V2.1.0 but GPS satellite lock wont stay on (dropping signal), tried all agps patches no go. Finally flashed new RUU_flyer_wifi_BBUS.B10.zip (2x) just to make sure over leedroid rom still the same results.

GPS Dropping

DEVICE: UK WIFI FLYER, 16GB

NOT WORKING: S-OFF, 3.55.401 - roms tried: LeeDroid, WestFire, Globatron's B09 (originally upgraded with the WIFI package built from 3.55.405.1 3G package)

NOT WORKING: S-OFF, 3.55.1114.31 - roms tried: HoneyPot, Globatron's B10

WORKING: S-ON, OTA 3.55.1114.31 (updated from Stock GB)

Also, worth noting that I (may) have experienced bluetooth problems. I use a OBD2 bluetooth adapter with my car and Torque App was having none of it with HC custom roms (including B09/B10). Basically, it connects to the OBD2 adapter, but but never negotiates the protocol. Works fine with GB and HC OTA. I could be alone on this since I don't trust the OBD2 adapter.

Navigation apps I use: CoPilot 8 & 9, Google Maps.
