[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimergon:
Hello, have been lurking on this forum for a while but never actually made any posts until now.

Let me start off my saying that I am a beginner when it comes to installing custom ROMs, I have only done it a few times before. I flashed my kernel, installed CWM and a custom ROM. After a while I got tired of the rom and decided to go back to Gingerbread 2.3.5. I hated the yellow triangle that shows up when using a custom kernel, so I went ahead and changed that back to stock as well, and that removed CWM as well.

But I've just discovered a ROM called "Batista70 Foxhound Edition 3.0" (which you can find in the i9100 general android dev section) and I love the look and feel it has, and would like to install it on my phone.

My question is pretty basic and simple:

Can I install this ROM without actually flashing the kernel (to avoid the f*ing annoying yellow triangle)? Or perhaps there is a way of flashing a kernel without getting the triangle? Though I'm not getting my hopes up for that question.

I also have a related question:

Can I install CWM without flashing the kernel?

Anything I forgot to add, let me know.

Regards,

Dimergon
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
If you by a jig off eBay for a few bucks all your problems will go away. It gets rid of the triangle and resets the flash counter. Well worth the $3.

CWM is within the kernel so to use it a custom kernel is required. CWM is worth having for backups and simple flashing.

My suggestion. Install one of chainfires cfrooted stock kernels. Use the jig to get rid of triangle. Then backup via CWM incase you want to go back at some stage.

Then flash foxhound.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
What you could try is rooting it with zergush exploit. Then download mobile odin from the market, flash cf-root true mobile odin and then you have the recovery needed to flash. And no yellow triangle.

Don't know if it's possible, because I never tried it. But we are on a developers forum after all.

You could of course just flash the CF-root and then remove the yellow triangle with instructions from the CF-root thread. Or buy a jig.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avolio:
Buy a USB-Jig from Ebay its a good investment and helps you on the triangle.. then download the old Bootloader and save it to your pc and then you are safe ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcadam:
All you need to remove the triangle is a zImage from a secure kernel it's all on the cf thread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimergon:
Thanks for the replies. I will definitely have a look at the USB jig, seems like the way to go.

And, to the reply above, is it possible flashing a secure kernel after installing a custom ROM? Seems to me this will not be without complications.

Regards, Dimergon.

I use amazon mp3 for my music but I hate the white background. Is it possible for anybody out there to modify this? Don't know if I'm posting in the right place or not. Thanks
[Epic 4G Apps] vroverload:
Huh, nobody has any ideas? My "solution" is just to use Google music and to just re-sync all my amazon cloud music to Google. Not the best plan.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Evo_Shift:
This is probably obvious to a lot of people and I should have known better but I made the mistake of thinking the first two OTA updates would bring me from Honeycomb version .27 that my Prime came with to .29 then .33. I was wrong. The FIRST update that was pushed to me was ICS. It took a very short time to download for me which is why I thought it was just an incremental update. It did not give any warning it was ICS. It was simply called a firmware update.

This is my second Prime, I returned my first. ICS updated just as fast as my first Prime updated from .27 to .29 which is why I thought this was simply one of those updates.

So, if you want root when you get your prime do it before you install ANY OTA updates because the very first update you accept will be ICS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rubi76:
Don't worry, sooner rather than later they will find a way to root a prime that runs ICS.

After all, the new ones will have that running in stock.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sparkym3:
I have a root for ICS that i will be posting in development shortly, so don't worry about updating.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpkumaran:
Hi, I'm having a HTC desire bought from star hub Singapore... It's having the infamous reboot problem.. but it's out of warranty..I'm willing to give it for service.I just want advice on a few things..

1.as it's already out of warranty, should I flash with an ruu before sending it for repair?

I'm now in Redux s off

2.please tell me the correct ruu for HTC desire from starhub.. I searched in the ruu thread but couldn't find any..

3.Singaporeans, please tell me what is the probable cause of replacing HTC desire motherboard..

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpkumaran:
3.Singaporeans, please tell me the cost of replacing a desire motherboard..

Swyped from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blacksec:
1. because your warranty is over it doesn't matter if you flash a ruu or not, it's very likely that the service team will flash a ruu anyway (here in Switzerland it is)

2. I would say one of the WWE versions or the HTC Asia WWE version in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695667

Nothing else makes any sense

EDIT: search this site: http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android under the folder Bravo

EDIT: If your mobile is branded you have to find the star hub's RUU from shipped-roms.com otherwise (not branded) I would recommend the HTC Asia WWE

3. sorry but i'm not from singapore ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] housecat93:
I thought I'd clear some things up.

If I'm wrong please don't flame me, I'm only doing my best to subdue the general discontent in [sgh-t989]/[android development]...

Steve Kondik, also known as the creator of the godfather of all ROMS (cyanogenmod) personally owns one of our t989s (source:twitter). That, combined with the fact that this is a FLAGSHIP t-mo device probably means that our phone will be supported from the day that 9.0.0 drops.

Now, let me tell you what this means.

As you all know, for a device get non-kang CM9 our hardware must be fully supported. Camera, GPS, bluetooth, egl drivers all must work.

When a huge scale ROM like CM9 is cooked for so many devices I understand it goes something like this

[AOSP modified by Cyanogenmod(teamdouce)] +

[Android Kernel, also modified by Cyanogenmod]+

[Device tree]+

[A virgin sacrifice]=

CYANOGENMOD

Now the interesting bit, is that as soon as the device tree (Eg. Specific driver modifications for GPS, Camera, GPU) includes our device the device tree can be used to power OTHER AOSP ROMS like Miui

I know that gingerbread MIUI already makes use of the CM7 device tree, so in all likelihood they will use the CM9 device tree as well!!!

So in conclusion.

-Because CM9 has a high likelihood of dropping on our devices as soon as it comes out (most likely within the next 30 days)

-Because other AOSP-Based roms depend on the cyanogenmod device tree

-WE WILL HAVE A LOT OF FLASHING OPTIONS SOON

-Probably including CM9 AND MIUI v4 <<<<--------THAT **** CRAY

Thanks for your time, hope it helped

Don't forget the thanks button (: feels good when you push it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jessejames111981:
there are a lot of other devices with cm9 alpha and we are still not an officially supported device. Still unofficially being worked on

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CloakedWolfie:
thanks for the info bro looking forward to it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
the thing is, many of those are KANGed as in not officially supported by CM team

of the few that officially are supported is Nexus S i9020 and SGS i9000

even the "classic" SGS2 i9100 is not fully supported by CM yet, there's more bugs than... well it's not usable as a daily driver

that was just before the end of last year

they might have improved it a bit by now

even the Nexus S version of CM9 is still very buggy, that's why i have the stock official ICS4 instead on my Nexus S
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iwasblown:
Please please use words like

"death of an era." Instead of virgin sacrifice. I don't believe in that
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jessejames111981:
I don't believe in idiots, can you make them all go away?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] corwest:
It takes time for this stuff guys. Anyone remember how long it took to jump from donut to eclair to get a stable rom? And look how few devices there were that actually ran android. This whole "if its not done in 2 weeks then its never happening" thing is a bit unfair. Let the devs dev and those who do not can wait for them quietly. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tennandcoz1:
Why this statement?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nexus14:
tl;dr

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Steve Kondik aka Mr. Cyanogen also works for Samsung. I am sure he gets ALL Samsung devices...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jim93:
It only takes 2 weeks to modify the stock rom or cm7/9.

Its the expectation that is built when people act like quantity is all that matters. There are basically only 2 people making roms; Samsung and CM team, everyone else just waits on these 2 so that they could tweak and modify one of those 2. The funniest part is that the use of the word "kanging" is thrown around among these other people.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Android Revolution:
I'd like to believe, I really would. And I hope this does come to fruition. However, even if it doesn't, the few ROMS we do have are pretty good, and our phone still outperforms almost anything else available right now, so I'll still be happy.

I do have one request, though. Can we figure out a way to make CM based ROMS happen without a virgin sacrifice? There are so many other things in life that require those, that they are starting to become scarce ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
The fact that lots of other phones have alphas and repositories available to even make kangs does not fare well for our device.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] goonx:
Great phone, needs more dev time and hopefully that comes along with it when ics hits.

We got shafted early with the nexus release so close to the T989 and a dev that promised things but ran away.

New year brings new hope. Great respect for the devs that care about our phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] setzer715:
+1, everyone has gone and gotten impatient with stuff. People whining they are board with their phone because there isn't enough stuff to flash. It got this way in the TM4G forum for a while, people whining, then all of a sudden there was a bunch of new ROM's and Theme's.

Anyways, seriously, go ride a bike, hike a mt., get a job (partime if you already have a full time one), read a book, do some chores. If you MUST be on your phone, download a game, download a book, check out a new app, flash a new theme, organize your internal and external SDCards, test and label your backups (mine get corrupted all the time). Just a few things you can do other than flash ROM's.

Oh, one last suggestion, LEARN HOW TO DEV AND BUILD YOUR OWN ROM OR QUIT COMPLAINING!!!! Geesh.

Apologize for getting off topic.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
So...its in the final stages is what you are saying.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] setzer715:
P.S. Thanks OP for the update.

Tried to thank you but it would appear I'm limited to 8 a day.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rekzer:
I really hope CM is being worked on. I feel like CM9 is a loooong ways away though. And i know CM himself had it, but how long to dev's keep phones. Some of our dev's get new phones every time the latest and greatest comes along.

either way, if CM9 or ICS based roms of any kind make it to the phone int he next few months ill behappy, and if CM9 makes it by the GSIII, id keep this phone for a long time. But if not, ill be get an international GSIII which we KNOW will have CM support.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] InGeNeTiCs:
Posts based on speculation are just that: speculation. When the CM team releases info about what they're doing, we'll know. Simple as that.

If you don't like waiting, samsung has the kernel source on their site, and instructions for building kernels and android source are all over. Hop to it.

Also, keep in mind that when he started all this, there weren't hundreds of android devices out. There were like 5. Development will take longer because he's covering a much broader audience. I don't like waiting any more than the next guy, I'm actually very impatient. However, hounding devs and complaining doesn't help either. Do what you can to help, and let them do their thing.

I see when I open up TI that their is a ringtone trimmer, I have searched for it and it doesnt come up. I have tried accessing it and no dice, right now I have TI trying to "convert to user app" whatever that means. Has anyone found a way to use this, and why would htc/verizon put it on there and not have a way for us to access it?
[HTC Rezound] Slainez916:
The ringtone trimmer option is available under the stock music player, don't think it's accessible on it's own
[HTC Rezound] antawnm26:
Hmmm, how exactly do you access it there?
[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
You can set a song as a ringtone, but can not cut it where you want it from there...
[HTC Rezound] BVKnight:
Through the music player:

Find the song/audio file you want, long press it, choose Set as Ringtone, and then (if the option appears) Trim Ringtone.

It looks like it will only give you the option to trim if the song is over a certain length. A 20 sec file didn't give me the option.

Currently rocking out to the sound of "Dovahkin! Dovahkin!" whenever my phone rings. :D
[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
I do that, and only get the option of phone ringtone or contact ringtone.

I have a rooted evo 4g running a cm7/ics hybrid by jaredthegreat running. Its smooth and stable, and I dig it, but I am having one problem I haven't figured out how to sort.

The home buttons, the ones that run along the bottom of the 4g, are showing up 'duplicated' on the bottom of the touchscreen. Both sets of buttons are working as they are supposed to. Is there a configuration setting deep in the bowels of CM7 that I can manually turn off the on-screen home buttons?

I've attached a screenshot to avoid any language confusion. The buttons are below the launcher icons at the bottom of the screen.

teh roxxorz,

I appreciate your help. as I look back in the thread, I think I started it just a few messages back. I looked around and couldn't find another thread about similiar issues, but these forums are massive. I will do some more poking around, but it seems like it could be much simpler than this.

I would assume the developer would have some manner of preference file that could be edited to import preference information into the compiled code.

Moreover, I would assume the code for the launcher would check for the presence of the buttons to see if they are built in before initializing them on-screen.

Maybe I am just hopeful. In any case, If you could point me towards the zip you referenced, that would be great.

Hi!

Has anyone had this problem with Gallery.Blue and green lines on the top left corner and the previews dont load up to a good image quality they just stay blurred even when i open up a picture.

I think it might have happend after i used sd maid.Ive tried reflashing gallery app and wiping app data and still...

Im using Quickpick but still id like to get Gallery back.

Please help.....

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark3n:
Try removing the gallery thumbnails and then give the gallery app a while to regenerate.

The pics usually look low quality while it is still loading.

I don't know what thats up with those blue lines.

You could check the android log to see if the gallery app is throwing exceptions.
