Thx, new kernel v.3 working without problems.

Have you considered to use DooMLords latest cwm recovery in your kernel?It supports ext partition on sd card so you can make proper nand back up if you use a2sd or link2sd.

aire, please could you make your great kernel for CM7, too? Thank you very much!

hello Im new here. I just wanna share the bug i encountered while using this rom.

The screen goes blank, and if you press home key for long time, the camera led lights up.

This happen when you open the status bar, adjust the brightness all the way down, click the brightness icon to go in auto mode, and then click the power/lock button on top of the xperia ray. it will no longer show any display. the only way is to remove the battery.

Ive encountered this numerous times while testing this rom.

But asides from that, your rom is perfect for me. i hope you can fix this. ty.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Holoshit:
I use this rom and I have no issues. I tried to reproduce what you wrote but there was no problem. Maybe you installed some wrong application.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nampoka:
try it again. make the brightness "dim", then, make it "auto". the condition must be in "AUTO BRIGHTNESS MODE with DIM DISPLAY". Then, lock the screen. the problem dont exist in your phone, maybe its only me who has a problem in setting up this rom.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Holoshit:
sorry, but I canot reproduce what you mention.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] thetrisatria:
yeah, just tried and i face the same problem. suddenly the display blank.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nampoka:
in this case, im not the only one who encountered the problem. the only option i have to make my phone usable again is by going to cmw recovery and clear data/factory reset. too sad.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] thetrisatria:
so sad. there's another way to solve without wiping your data.

when display becomes blank it's mean your phone locked. press power/menu button once and then slide the screen (you have to remember where is the location of the unlocker). voila, the light is on again. kinda unlock your lockscreen without seeing it. once you got the access again, fix your brightness, you can set it low but NEVER the lowest. then you can set to auto-brightness again without getting blank screen.

hope it help. :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungS2Tal:
Hi there,

Up until a few weeks ago, I was an iPhone user, but never really enjoyed it that much. I got myself a SGS2 with Telstra, so far network and phone have been alright. Downloads at around 8.6MB consistently.

My phone specs are as follows:

Model: GT-I8100T

Version: 2.3.3

Baseband: I9100TDVKF2

Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100TDVKF4-CL301812 root@DELL104 #2

Build number: Gingerbread.DVKF4

1)

I am new to all this and would like to understand more about what all the above actually means. Does anyone have a tutorial or link explaining it all?

2)

I have heard about "rooting" your phone. Can someone either tell me or direct me to somewhere that can outline what rooting is, why someone would do it and what are its advantages and disadvantages?

3)

There are things about this phone I cannot stand:

The browser always crashes (so I have replaced with with Dolphin HD).

You cant turn of Camera snapshot sound.

When ever i unplug earphones and plug them back in the media volume automatically decreases.

The stock media player does a terrible job at being good, moved to winamp (are there any better ones, perhaps a rip of the iphone music player?).

Battery Life is terrible (if I use GPS guidance, phone would be lucky to last a day).

I find that the phone takes a long time to "load media from sd card" is that normal? (I have a class 4 mini sd 32gb).

Last of all, Facebook for android runs terribly on this phone. Can't upload photos, or even view my own. I can't work out why. Tried reinstalling.

I thank you in advance for any help or links you can provide me with.

Cheers.

I can't say I ever noticed the stock Samsung browser crashing on my device.

If you are rooted, you can permanently disable the camera noise by renaming the shutter sound ogg file in /system/media/audio/ui. Rename it to .ogg.bak and it should stop the noise.

I liked the stock media player but there are other popular music players like PowerAmp. Or even the music player from the MIUI ROM.

Welcome to smart phones. Battery life sucks. Get the official extended battery, root the phone, remove some bloat, install a custom kernel like SpeedMod. Also check Kies to see if your carrier has released an update for your phone. Android 2.3.3 is old and not very battery friendly.

I have a class 10 SD card and it doesn't take long to load at all.

Facebook for Android has always sucked but I have never had any problem with photos.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungS2Tal:
Thanks for the replies, been reading up a lot the last couple of hours.

Just a few questions for you:

1)

What exactly constitutes "bloat"? My phone comes with a few Telstra (my provider) apps like news bulletins, navigon (with free maps in AUS), but are there processors behind the scenes that I can't see that really slow it down that much?

2)

When you say "install a custom Kernal" I am not sure I understand entirely. I read the thread posted above, but is installing a different kernel the same as installing a new ROM? Do some ROMS include different Kernels? Do I need a new/different rom (from the stock) in order to install new kernels? Please explain in basic terms. :) I am guessing I need to root the phone in order to install kernels. By installing kernels, am I losing anything on my phone?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinancetinkaya:
Consider rooting as jailbreak. Normally you don't have root access privileges on OS. But some programs or you yourself need to have root access to change something on OS.

Never faced this, which website?

Unlike iOS, android supports various hardwares, phones, tablets etc. iOS supports only the hardware used by apple. Therefore all unnecessary code has been pulled off from kernel and OS. That's why it feels faster and battery friendly.

In android there are some tricks to save your battery. Be patient and keep reading the forum, you'll learn in time :)

It depends on how many files you have on that storage, and yes it's annoying. However you can disable it with like this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.addz.mediascannerroot

Never used it but seems app related. Blame facebook for the app, not your phone.

[Xoom General] jessman1988:
Is cm9 more stable thusfar? I went with the very well done EOS. No complaints thusfar but even on nightly 38 grand theft auto randomly freezes and some other games don't seem to work. Luckily most Gameloft games work. I've scoured the net to try and find a fix for gta but I guess if Im patient it'll get fixed in a newer nightly? Does gta play well on cm9?
[Xoom General] mcnob:
I'm running the CM9 build because the EOS one wouldn't run some apps (Slingplayer most importantly for me) and so far GTA3 is running like butter at 1504mhz via SetCPU. I did a wipe of my card for unconnected reasons and then re-downloaded the GTA3 data so that may or may not have been a factor.
[Xoom General] jessman1988:
Damn. I did a full wipe before installing EOS ics so this must be a nightly thing. I just don't know how to feel about cm9 because we're not officially supported. I'm sure the kang release is awesome, but I just started getting my apps in order. Maybe ill jump ship, maybe ill stay where I am. Lol. Thanks.

What I ask myself is weakly present.

Interested in whether it is possible to have a android device (for example for SoC Nvidia Tegra 3 (a forthcoming) or the Samsung Exynos 4210) which will operate the hardware decoding, gigabit ethernet, USB 3.0 (or at least 2.0), eSATA and output image and sound HDMI, and if you play in a certain application on the device will contain the content source encoded in DTS, DTS-HD, DD, DD TrueHD sound, in the same encrypted transfer it to a device on the other side of HDMI cable (passthrough)?

Device about which I'm not there, it is conditional, in fact the question is whether it is possible to create such a device. While on the Internet seen such devices. Among them, of course, none of them had all of the above, but there was some support for Ethernet, USB, HDMI, but how it works there I do not know.

There are currently about USB and Ethernet I imagine this case was this: on-board controllers are soldered above-mentioned interfaces, after which the linux drivers for these controllers is compiling android .. right?

Thats basically it, i got a xperia ray off a auction site, and i suddenly got loss of signal. The phone was originally vodafone but i was using it on o2 so i thought the bugger had it blocked so i checked the imei with o2 and the police and its clean. Vodafone say its locked (it was unlocked) and want £20 for a code.

Ive tried numerous sim cards in the phone including vodafone and i keep getting error MM#6 which is supposedly a sim activation error.

Now heres the annoying part, ive done factory resets, (i was on stock FW no unlocked bootloader etc), repaired the FW through SE companion, and found online that if i unlock my bootloader this has cured similar problems. Not worked, so i also installed CM7, same thing. Ive also tried SETool but havent an idea how to use it so thats a no

Thing whats getting to me is I am still getting data through O2's cell network, so i think if the phone was not sim unlocked, then this wouldnt happen.

Any help greatly appreciated.
[Xoom General] doumer:
Hi there,

i'm a bit confused now. My Xoom (German Wi-Fi only, MZ604) should arrive this week and i wanna root it and flash the eos ics-nightly, but from what i've read, there are different root-methods for us and non-us devices and CWM-versions with and without sd-card support.

So, what mehtod is best for rooting? universar xoom root or xoot? and if xoot, what are the benefits of converting to an GDE-device? when rooted, i can flash every rom anayway, or am i wrong?

Second Question: When i root via universal xoom root, i'll have the taiamt recovery, right? so this will be the eos/tiamat recovery, which supports sd-cards? and can i use this CWM together with a regular installation of rom manager?

What about the rouge CWM? this one should also have sd-card support, right? can this also be used together with a regular rom manager or not?

The only thing i should avoid is flashing CWM via rom manager, correct?

Sorry for all the noobish questions, but this is quite different from the DHD handling :(
[Xoom General] LPHS:
root via universal root(I prefer it)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1242241

yup you will have the tiamat recovery :)

there are currently tow recoveries supported

1.) Rogue recovery

2.) solarnz recovery

I use the rogue recovery as it gives more options(ex flashing from internal sd card along with external)

but both are awesome

No you cannot use the recovery which comes with Rom Manager...

it does not detect the external sd :), yup avoid flashing CWM with Rom manager

Advantages of GED device..

all i can say is that it receives update directly from google and the updates come alot faster

and you will have stock android ie no custom ui's like motoblur or so
[Xoom General] doumer:
thank you for the answer :)

so the work order will be root via universal root, flash the rouge recovery and flash the custom rom (and if needed flash google apps), correct?

GED isnt needed because aosp roms dont get updates from vendors or google.

Last question: should i install rom manager for nandroid management (if rom manager works with rouge cwm) or should i avoid rom manager at all and do backups directly through recovery?

thanks for the help :)
