Galaxy S Unlock by Helroz has worked for both of my Vibrants. Make sure to backup everything first.
[Vibrant General] genlop89:
ok so ihave unlocked at least 10 phones with this app thats called Galaxy_S Unlock by a developer called HELROZ

1.make sure your rooted before you try this usually superoneclick works fine

2.make sure you tell the program to install busybox with in the process it will ask you if you want to.

3.Once you do that then reboot the phone

4.download the app from the market it usually pops up when you search galaxy s unlock

5. open the app and follow the step beginning from 1-3

and BAM your unlocked

In personal experience this has worked for me every time
[Vibrant General] jamesd86:
When you unlock with the program instead of the actual code, does Odin overwrite the nv_stats file, causing it to be locked again?
[Vibrant General] Woody:
That is a good question. I just Odin'd last night coming off ICS to test another ROM and just checked mine and it still says it is unlocked.

Here are a few tweaks to get XRON/CM7/CM9 running a bit smoother

Make sure to create a Nandroid before applying these tweaks, just in case something goes wrong :)

Smoother Scrolling - for XRON2.9 Deodexed/CM9 (unless you apply the mod yourself).

Files are attached, make sure to rename the file to framework.jar.

The instructions to replace the framework.jar are included in the original post under D. Installing steps.

Or you can use ADB:

adb push c:\path-to-framework\framework.jar /system/framework
adb shell chmod 0644 /system/framework/framework.jar

This mod really helps smooth out menu scrolling, most noticeable while browsing long lists like in Titanium Backup or Root Explorer, I've noticed a speed boost under Youtube as well (CM9). This made a bigger difference on XRON, but still makes a notable difference under CM9.

Reduce Lag - For XRON/CM7/CM9a0.5

Up threshold tweak, under advanced settings with CPU Master/SetCPU - 30-40% should provide you with a lag-free experience.

Use SetCPU instead of CPU Master for CM9a0.5 with BrickedKernel.

This tweak will get rid of most of the jumpiness in heavy applications, like Cordy or Opera Mobile. I ran the TP before and after side-by-side with the iPad 2 and it went from about 30-40% the speed of the iPad 2 to about 80-90% (Opera Mobile VS Safari). A big improvement. The downside to this tweak is you will experience worse battery life.

Reduce Lag - For older versions of XRON (before 2.8) and CM7

In the build.prop make these changes:

1. Change debug.composition.type=c2d to debug.composition.type=gpu

2. Add debug.sf.hw=1 (or change to match if it already there)

This build.prop change will help speed up the UI dramatically if you are still running CM7 3.5 or an older version of XRON.

Improve Auto-Rotation Speed - CM9a0.5

Included in the cm9a0.5-framework.jar are modifications that should help speed up auto-rotation as explained here and here.

These tweaks made a dramatic difference on my TP. Good luck!

These will probably speed up MIUI too, but you'll have to do the framework.jar mod yourself. If you do, feel free to share the jar and I'll add it to the post. ;)
[TouchPad General] bajingo:
Off-topic, but I booted up webOS for the first time in months today to update it. Damn, that thing is slow.
[TouchPad General] ChronoReverse:
Interesting, I'll try out #1 and #2. Thanks for putting it into a separate thread since I wouldn't have noticed it otherwise.
[TouchPad General] xxmastermindxx:
WebOS, running an overclocked kernel at close to 1.8GHz on both cores, is extremely smooth. The multitasking and saving of current app states is excellent. Too bad there's not much more than the browser, email, and Angry Birds and a few Gameloft games to put it to use.

Going to try out these tweaks, thanks!
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
I really like WebOS as well, HP/Palm really hit the nail on the head concerning the user experience and multitasking. With all the Preware tweaks and the device overclocked it is quite fast.

But the web experience is still too sluggish for my taste, especially when compared to Android running Opera Mobile with the tweaks above or an iPad 2.. And of course there is a major lack of applications for WebOS.
[TouchPad General] C5Longhorn:
Thanks for posting. I'm a TP newb running CM7 3.5. It sounds like 2 and 3 are applicable to CM7. I'm going to give 3 a try.

Are there any other general tips for CM7 or the Touchpad in general?

Rick
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
The first one will work on CM7 as well, but you'll have to mod the framework.jar yourself as explained in this post.

You could also try my framework.jar, but it may break your install (if you try it make sure to create a nandroid first).
[TouchPad General] ChronoReverse:
Yeah, it broke my wifi even though I'm on Xron. I'll just have to do it manually later

Sent from my HTC G2
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
Which version? It should have no problems on 2.9 deodexed, I've done it multiple times.

Make sure you set the permissions/owner the same as the old file.
[TouchPad General] ChronoReverse:
It was 2.9

However, I suspect the problem might have been something else as restoring the nandroid didn't fix it and I had to go back to an even older nandroid.
[TouchPad General] ambrar12:
The main problem with webOS is it lacks text reflow. The iOS and WP7 also lack it. I don't know why Android is the only OS that gets this right. I actually wish I had text reflow on my desktop/laptop browsers, and occasionally boot into a x86 Android virtual machine just for specific sites whose fonts don't play well with Chrome (since Google removed font size increases years ago and never replaced it).

I also don't understand why no one complains about the lack of text reflow in other OS's. Maybe I'm just blind or something.

BTW (a little more on topic), do these tweaks work with ICS?
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
I'm not sure. The framework.jar mod might, but I have not tried it yet. The up threshold tweak would probably help, but I haven't figured out how to change that yet. The build.prop tweak did not seem to change anything for me.
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
Updated OP with info/tweaks for CM9.
[TouchPad General] ambrar12:
Are we supposed to rename CM9-framework.jar to framework.jar in order to replace the framework.jar that's already present in /system/framework?
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
Correct.

Create a nandroid beforehand just in case. Also, make sure that you set the permissions/owner the same as the original file.

If you are running a different variation I can't guarantee it will work, it has only been tested with CM9A0 and CM9A0.5.
[TouchPad General] ambrar12:
For some bizarre reason the only thing that shows up under the "Advanced" Tab is "sampling rate". I've tried both CPU Master and SetCPU, and all I can see is sampling rate. Nothing else shows up.
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
On CM9 you've gotta use Bricked-Kernel and SetCPU, otherwise the settings won't show.
[TouchPad General] ambrar12:
Okay, finally got it to work. I had been confused regarding the presence of the "brickedkernel" and "cyanogen mod" option in the boot up list. When I went to brickedkernel wi-fi didn't work, but in the CMMod option it did. I finally realized that when I had flashed back to Alpha 0, then back to .5 (to correct a boot loop issue), the Bricked Wi-Fi modules must have been replaced. So I reflashed the Bricked kernel and Wi-Fi worked. Finally went to SetCPU and surprise! Threshold was already at 90% lol. Opera is still jumpy though so I give up. I mean it's "smoother", but not as smooth as on my Charge.

My "Scaling" is set to "ondemand" (with max freq. of 1.56 GHz), Sampling rate set to 50,000, and "Ignore Nice Load" and "Powersave Bias" are both set to 0. I'll try to set Sampling Rate to 10000 and see what happens.

Edit: Nope, no change. Ah well...
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
Yeah, I have it at 30%/50000/1.5ghz and it is quite smooth, smoother than the stock browser at least.. But not quite as smooth as my Epic.

I'm guessing that once HW Acceleration is working 100% it'll speed things up a bit more.
[TouchPad General] addictarmy:
I'm on cm9 a.05 booted to Bricked and still don't see anything else except sampling under setcpu | advanced
[TouchPad General] tbob18:
Are you sure you are running bricked? Try re-flashing the kernel.. The options should definitely be there if you are on bricked.
[TouchPad General] coffmad:
are there any updated tweaks for cm9 0.6?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
Hi guys

Been awhile since I played with a mono..... Last one was the q

But you don't get much hands on in store and not enough to make a informed choice so would love some comments from you guys.... Are ya happy, no don't touch this with a forty foot poll, and wish ya bought the nexus????

Any help would be great as in most review sites yo see slates and praises in equal in equal measure but from people who don't own them.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Brynn217:
Ok...In my opinion, there are only a few choices in this area... For Verizon, like myself, you have the Galaxay Nexus, Apple 4S or the Razr... The HTC newest comes in a 4th here...

In overall preformace and looks, the Razr is the Winner... The processor in the Nexus is different and slightly faster.. 1.5GHZ vs 1.0GHZ... thats internal speeds of the TI chipset... (adverised Clock speeds are both 1.2Ghz) In the future this may make the Nexus keep up better in 2 years than the Razr, but at the current time, most app speed tests say these devices are equal. Also, Samsung has a slighly bigger screen and crisper colors in its display. However, the cons for the Nexus are the case and battery life.

Now, 24hrs ago, I bought the Razr. As far as being stock, the new features over my former phone, Droid Eris, kick-ass... But I miss my customizations like CM7.. Motorola/Verizon has locked the Bootloader of this phone and the current ROM mods just don't seem to compare. I have as of yet to even get this Razr Rooted, seems to be a problem (which I posted in the thread a few hrs ago..) There is no ICS version available yet for the Razr... So If you like mods, it would seem that the Nexus is the better choice. (which might be my option soon before my 14 day return policy is up..)

IF I had a different provider, the Samsung Galaxy SII would be the best out there... It is a Dual Mode/World Phone... so that feature plus ICS would definately win out...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
Thanks for that.. Was trying to decide and there us nothing on the horizon that would make me want to wait that bit more so it really is the choice between the nexus and RAZR for me..

Just read some scary stories... But the two year wait doesn't worry me too much as if a phone lasts a year in my hands will be lucky as spend my day on these fecken things..... Actually talking > :~}
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Deron Baker:
Great phone. Had it since launch. However, I wish I had held out a bit and waited to buy this upcoming Razr Maxx (which is what I suggest you do ). This Razr would be the best phone out there if it had a bigger battery. LTE phones really need 3000 mAh or larger batteries ... otherwise you'll just be setting it in 3g mode in order to get good battery life.

Seriously, anybody who is even considering a Razr shouldn't buy it ... buy this instead

i literally went FUUUUU when i saw the news of a upgraded razr... hell i had mine for 2 months and this shows up..... >_> seems motorola is trying to pull off an asus **** move
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dey.santanu2011:
Get the RAZR....you are in Ireland, so no need to worry about battery since over there you dont have LTE and in 3G it works just fine....

Regarding the NEXUS, it is too buggy.... radio reception problems and voice quality.... the design is also not to my liking.....

The only reason people are rating it as good as RAZR is because it has ICS...but everybody will be upgraded soon.....

So go by the word: "Software can be improved anyday, hardware cannot..."

Also I think MOto's EU Customer service is better than Samsungs'.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
Agree completely, it was the only reason thought of the nexus was because it was close to vanilla as you can get, but then the razr will get it soon enough (depending on the carrier though, but that should not be much of a problem >:¬} )
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
True, but in Ireland LTE is as far away as manned travel to mars so don't think its too much of a worry to me and also at the moment the battery life is SOOOOO much better then by dead SG 1 or dusted off x10i <--- feck by 11am its fried!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
Would not be surprised if they do a rebate for trade ins to appease the damage, that or offer reduced accessories to make people a bit happier.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] i'mnotanoob:
I suggest you put a good screen protector on the razr, I bought mine a month ago and it got a minor scratch, not sure if its a defect or the gorilla glass is useless but Im really pissed I hate scratches on a new phone. Gonna buy me a zagg or something :(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] reaperzero:
gorilla glass can still be scratched. mainly sand :/ its like jamming an ice pick into a guys back, the pressure generated on a concentrated area makes it hit hard, and in our case scratched our preciousssssssss~~~
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vash_h:
Odd.. I always thought screen protectors are part of the package when you buy a new phone.

At least that's the practice on Malaysia.. Of the screen protector is not in the package the phone shop will give you a screen protector for free, including install it for you..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stoges:
3 screen protectors came with my phone. I really like the Razr, so if I could switch I would still go Razr but get the Razr Maxx.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
Hehehe my son plays with my tab and old phone for videos so learned at the very beginning sticky fingers and touch screens don't like each other..... Side note have no idea how he gets them cause before he touches make sure his hands are clean.... Maybe he secretes sticky >:¬}
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
It also doesn't like floor tiles makes very interesting patterns
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
Here is hopping for rebate, but cause its not available on contract in Ireland yet have to buy it outside (gulp).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] reaperzero:
:/ well thats IF they have a screen protector.... i had to order mine online >_>

shop.brando.com has a nice selection too

and tarmac....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RichardC27:
I got my Razr yesterday and so far I'm very impressed with it. The phone is such a jump from an iPhone 3GS it's unbelievable. Ignore negative reviews of the screen, I really can't find a fault with it. It's vibrant, sharp, bright and black really is black. There is a slight colour cast at low brightness settings but it's not really noticable.

Design wise, it's a little bit but I've found it easy to use with one hand. Currently scoring 5729 on AnTuTu benchmark, it's fast and easy to use. The UI is lovely too
[Motorola Droid RAZR] alexgogan:
Thanks for that so far everyone is saying great things and not unless I have missed something there is nothing on the horizon that really beats this.....

Well the maxx and the quad processors. I but they won't be till the summer.

OK but when I get this phone something amazing will be announced at mwc for immediate release knowing my luck hehehe and if I wait there won't be grrrrrrrr
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vash_h:
Here, they always have it.. They have something like a gigantic screen protector which they cut out to fit your screen.you can choose to have the blur type where finger prints won't leave marks on the screen but they charge extra..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] monoloco1:
Is there any ICS port currently in development for Samsung Galaxy S II AT&T Skyrocket? Is it flashable yet? What features work/ Don't work? I saw an add for an AT&T Skyrocket claiming to run an ICS port on ebay, and was wondering if there was a functional port, since thus far, there have been no leaks from samsung for the skyrocket, meaning camera and more features may not work for a long time. If there is a rom in existence, I would be very interested. Could I have a link to the development thread? Thank you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
no

so subsequent answers to your questions revolve around NO, NOT OUT, NOTHING TO WORK ON YET

there is no ICS port yet so the ebay listing is LYING

link to development thread? dont you think if it existed, that it would be on the FRONT PAGE of the dev section? dont you think there would be 1000 people in there asking to flash it?

there is NOTHING of value for ICS yet for the skyrocket....

Give it a shot!!!!

IF I helped you please hit the thanks button. :D

You people are too doubtful. You should have just ran to the store and at least try.

I hope they are still out of stock on the black one when you guys go tomorrow.

Lastly, if I say anything on XDA developers you can take it to the bank. I don't lie or troll... I say what I mean and I mean what I say.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Did you do watranty exchange witjin remorse period or after? My stores dont let me do this. I have to call in if that is what you are talking about? So they said their warehouse is out of stock? I dont want to do this and have to get a redurb white?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] horatiob:
Don't worry about that. If the screen they sent you is bad just send it back. Call them and tell them they sent you one with a bad screen so you sending it back and ask them to send you another.

I don't play when I get on the phone with T-Mobile. I am the consumer and the bill payer. They sold me a defective screen. I have a right to have my device working the way it's expected to.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] horatiob:
Naa, they sending me a brand new white one. Brand NEW in T-Mobile box and all. I don't know about your store. Make sure you go to a corporately owned store. They can process the handset exchange right there in the store.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AJ7677:
This is true coming from a T-Mobile Employee myself with a white GS2. Just note that you are getting refurb unit and only get a new replacement if it is within 14 days. Just make sure to unroot and install the 2.3.6 OTA through ODIN.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Oregon does not have corporate stores. Nearest onebis washington. But my question was . Did they say hey were out of stock at their store and warehouse?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] horatiob:
Well the store rep informed me that it would be brand new. So we will have to see. I already got my wife a white one and I don't particularly care for the white. I really like the black one more. So if they send me a refurb white I'll just send it back and tell them to let me know when the black is back in stock. I just want a screen that's not that obvious with the lines and blobs...

Thank you for your input AJ. I will hit the thanks button. It's nice the have a team magenta member on our forum ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I just called in because last night after I was testing some skyrocket modems and roms I attempted to revert back to stock and could not get baseband back. I tried some stuff from some of the other threads, but just could not get it to work. They processed it as next day and they are out of black. I am getting a NEW white kit this thursday. Only thing is they said USB cable is not included. While, I didnt want to get the white one this way, at least I am safe from craigslist scams....Thanks OP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Just for proof for you naysayers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Do they charge to do this?

$5 processing fee ....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Bummer, I am talking to a rep online on chat and since I can't pay my bill till Thursday he can't process the exchange to see if a white one is available. Bummer.

How many people have had luck trying this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Watcher64:
My White one will be here Thursday :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kid Poker:
Thanks for confirming, I'm just gonna let my zagg invisible shield set for a day or 2 then pack up the black one and send it back out. I already unrooted the phone and got back the stock firmware. I had the USB JIG but it won't reset the counter. I contacted the website I ordered from and they said that they patched the bootloader and he is gonna look for a way to reset it. If not I don't think they will look at it.

Lol...yeah thats for sure! No my wife is nagging for a SGSII White since she has seen the pics. Have to wait for tax returns for that one. ;)

Now I am trying to figure out what to do with my Ghost Armor White.... Don't need it anymore. The 30 remorse period ends in two days so thats not a option, although I can get a new one because it has a life time warranty. Do you think they will swap for the white ones?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Towle:
Can anyone confirm any differences in the screen or speakers with the white?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] immunityx:
The differences i notice between my white s2 and the black s2 is on the white s2 my screen is crystal clear i cant see the lines on my screen at all like i was seeing on my black s2. Also the bezel around the phone is not less shinny and glossy on the white s2 then the black s2.

Overall im so happy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kharnage:
So 20 for a white one worth it? What do you all think?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Confused...so the metal is more shinny?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kid Poker:
They always carry lifetime warranty, while I was up in MA, there was a Ghost Armor kiosk right by me. Whatever I needed they did. I had installed it on my Sensation 4G, I had to get it replaced so I took both of them into the kiosk to show them and they ripped out the old one from the old phone and put in the new one. I just had to pay for the installation.
