[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilirose:
IMO, if you're interested in installing different kernels and ROMs or even just being first to get the latest versions of Android straight from Google, this is definitely the phone to have, and no better phone will come out until the next Nexus phone.

If you're interested in the highest possible hardware spec, you surely know that even though this is a very high-end phone right now, in six months there will be better ones. But that's always the case, so you shouldn't let that stop you.

If you like slick UI additions like TouchWiz, I'd advise the Galaxy SII. My partner has one and is always showing off all the fancy tricks that it can do, but I'm more interested in being among the first to try out the latest version of Android and having a phone that is free of bloatware. I might start tinkering in a few months, but for right now I'm enjoying "pure Android".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buff McBigstuff:
definitely worth it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragonsla:
IF you can get one that doesnt have banding issues........then it is SOO worth it. love the phone. you may have to go through a few to get a good one tho sadly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WH4YER0:
GNex is definitely worth that money! I just got it, bought it from big electronics shop in Poland (GSM version), paid loads for it and I don't regret it. Jaw-dropping screen, awesome performance, absolutely no issues and great audio quality. Only the camera could be a little better; it's not the best possible, but it's fine. You definitely should get the Galaxy Nexus!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mbeatle:
I personally think the RAZR MAXX looks like the phone to beat from a hardware standpoint. I am big on small extended batteries and this phone cannot be touched in that respect.

If you're into fiddling and tweaking, stick with the GNEX. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragonsla:
Oh and to let you know, I DID end up getting a nexus with a decent screen.....so yeah. very much worth it ;]

Hi all.

I have a new ATT sgh-i777.

I made a typical noob mistake and flashed a kernel for the i9000 to my i777.

And I installed clock work

And it befuddled my wifi

I got the stock rom reinstalled no prob but of course the wifi is flubbed.

Now I am trying to the "I777UCKH7 OCD With Root.exe".

I wiped and reset.

I go into download mode (Vol UP & Vol down + USB)

Odin see the phon and begins.

But it stays on factoryfs.img for a very long time (20+ minutes) with no progress.

Then against my best insticnts I unpluged the phone.

Then lo and behold (bring up the dramatic music) "Firmware upgrade encountered an error" ...

I am trying again with odin3 v1.85 and uckk6_stock_rooted.tar

Still stuck at factoryfs.img!!!

Help Please.

Thanks again

Salty.

With all due respect I have been in the computer business since the trs-80 model I and have dealt with more than my share of ID10T & EBKAC errors. If you had read the first thread and thought for a moment you would see that I had already done a fair amount of trouble shooting without posting a "stupid" thread. Then, when after a day of reading and searching I did not find the answer, I posted a simple, polite question. And when I as a last effort I did 1 more search and found an answer I replied to my own question with gratitude and politness.

Your post was just you being bored and figuring you could trash another dumb user.

Not very polite or gracious. Not at all helpful. And certainly not needed.

Next time how about "glad you found the answer and posted the find". Maybe my post, with its particular wording will help some other person find the asnwer without bothering you.

[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
I can not load into hboot, when I do, it reads the sd card and then asks me if I want to update. ph98img is on my sd card and if I am not mistaking that is whats causing the update? What do I do to be able to boot into hboot? Can I just change the name of that file, or do I even need that file? I am not running ics, have cwm recovery, and ziggys kernel running at 1.86.

Any info is greatly appreciated (I am not tech savvy at all)

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
I ran into this as well a week or so ago. I pulled my sd card out and put it into my Incredible and deleted the ph98img file. I then put the sd back into my Rezound and then you can once again boot into hboot.
[HTC Rezound] bbeaulieu:
This.

Also, if you don't have another device to put the device in, you can just take the sdcard, put what you were gonna flash on internal storage, then flash that way. Once your phone is functional you can then put the sdcard in and delete the file.
[HTC Rezound] Jetdr:
Or... You could just "adb reboot recovery" and turn on mount SD Card.
[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
Thanks for the answers. I just deleted it off my sd card, will it change how things are running or hurt something, I saved it to my desktop in case I fouled something up. It will now let me into hboot though.
[HTC Rezound] WasabiWa83:
You don't need it on the sdcard at all after it updates. It's fine to keep it off. It won't mess anything up.

[General Questions and Answers] snoer:
hi there.

i just downloaded the german motorla atrix rom you postet here

for safety reasons i checked the md5 hashs.

the md5 of the compressed sbf.gz is ok

but unfortunately the md5 of the sbf file itself get differs from yours.

i get 87F1762240C2636331B907BCB19BF55D for the sbf file.

i tryed different extracting programs and different checksumgenerators, just to make shure.

i cant ask the poster cause i dont have my 10 usefull posts, so maybe this is the way to go..

does anyone have the opportunity to recheck an uncorrupted sbf file?

thanks
[General Questions and Answers] snoer:
okay i redownloaded and got the same differing md5 hash as before.

so its nothing about the download.

flashed it via rsd lite..

works properly..

so the file seems to be okay and safe to flash

eventhough the hash is 87F1762240C2636331B907BCB19BF55D

..could anyone write a pm to daywalker04 since i cant and tell him?

thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] scarygood536:
Since Imnuts' latest kernel release and nitro's eclipse I've been none stop playing with my phone just like the day I got it. Anyways, I've overclocked the cpu to 1.3ghz. Very stable and no issues with stability. However I been using Quadrant to monitor changes I make and the impact it has on the phone. It seems to me when I overclock (any frequency) my FPS on my 2D drop way low and the 3D also drops. This significantly reduces the score of quadrant. I know quadrant doesn't mean anything but FPS difference means something. Also, upon investigating, I found if I change the govenor it also has an impact on the FPS. What is happening here and why?

thanks for any input!
[Verizon Droid Charge] XbirthofaheroX:
I have actually noticed this also. Very curious.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
This is how I found the best settings with the best performance. Set you governor to "on demand" and set frequency starting at 1100 then run quadrant, the first graphic is wall paper (yellow) appeared, look at the FPS, it should read above 20 (like 22, 23 or more), it's safe to increase your frequency to the next level. When you see the pfs in the wall paper scrolling drop below or fluctuate below 20 then the previous frequency is the highest you can use or max you can use. Once you done with this you can set the governor to anything you like, but I found that on demand is safe and save battery the best, since it's only use high frequency when needed. Min frequency I set to 200. try to run at least 3 times before move on to a new setting. Also I kill all running apps before running the test. In a normal situation you should be some where around 1200mhz and quadrant should be around 2100-2200. If you have a premium silicon chips, you can see higher frequency and quadrant score. Additonal setting for undervolting, try to decrease every frequency voltage by -25 then try -50 see which one is better for your phone. IMO, I think -25 is slight more stable. I also found that on demand is as good as kickass setting. Good luck.

Try 1.2ghz with on demand setting.

Actually interactive, conservative, smartass, and powersave are better at battery saving, and smartass and interactive are also better at raising the freq when needed.

My phone survive at 1400 freg with on demand but not with any other settings.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xdadevnube:
With Tegrak Overclock Ultimate with Interactive X governor, I am 1.252 GHz at 1.285 volts. Minimum scaling at 200 Mhz.

I am stable at 1.3 with 1.33 volts, so I decided to drop the voltage down to 1.285 and clocks down to 1.252 GHz. I didn't think that 48 Mhz was worth .45 volts.

My Quadrant score after 5 runs @ 1.252 GHz is 2649.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
If you want "accurate" numbers in quadrant, you should only run with it set to a min/max speed that are the same. For some reason, Performance doesn't lock the CPU to the max clock speed, possibly due to adding in more steps. So if min=max for the clock speed, then run quadrant, you will get more consistent numbers. If you leave min and max separate, the governor may step up at different points (or down), causing inconsistent results.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
No argument here, right on!
[Verizon Droid Charge] scarygood536:
Thanks all for the responses. @Imnuts thanks for the insight. I set the min to 1400mhz (same as the max) and set the govener to performance. I received the highest FPS ever and received a score of 3112. By far the highest yet. 1400MHz is set to -75 mV. 1300, 1200 mhz are disabled and all others are -100mV and up. I'm not sure if it is really stable but it works without any restarts of FC. I guess this test kinda proves quadrant isn't a true test of the performance of your phone.

also, does our phone have a fps cap?
[Sony Tablet S] Vbitz:
I've had the tablet for only a couple days and after a few it is now unable to connect to wireless, I've tried other wireless networks and from the looks of things it is unable to get a IP address.

I've looked in logcat using SL4A and it says the DCHP request failed, the Wi-Fi Checker app fails half the time and when it does get to IP settings.

Oh and I've tried Starbucks and 2 hotel wi-fi's all of which worked fine before but now can not even connect, it just goes in a loop getting a IP address.

Oh and I tried doing a factory reset and that did not work.

Yeah. If the factory reset failed to correct the issue it's probably best taking it back.

Since this thread is already created and somewhat related to the alarm clock, I have a question.

Any of you use the alarm clock selection with the HD Station (dock)? I'm wondering what kind of effect this has on the screen over time? Even dimmed down if the screen stays on like a real alarm clock would, is there any potential for burn in, decreased screen and/or battery life (since phone battery is being charged and discharged at same time all night long), etc.?

I haven't seen any discussions on this and would like to get hear from those that use this function.

Does anyone know what the DIP switch located in the transformer is for? The only thing I found is a post mentioning a different wifi setup.

My experience messing with it is that the transformer won't turn on when it is in the up position unless the tablet is plugged into its charger.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
Off the top of my head, I thought it was the switch that disables the battery? Somewhere, in a galaxy far, far away, there is a thread, and buried deep in that that thread, someone speculated that the ASUS techs use that switch to shunt the battery when they service bricked TFs so that the flux capacitor doesn't blow up and send us all back to the 80s. OK, maybe that's a bit of a strech, but I do think it has something to do with the battery.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatton13:
Nice! Especially the Back to the Future reference. Allow me to explain my situation and why I am so interested in that tiny switch.

I purchased my Transformer from Newegg back in July or August. It was an open box and I saved around $150 because of that. Unfortunately that means it only had a 1 month warranty, this brings us to my problem. It runs great but every once in a while a lot of the apps, including the browser, will force close. Also if I go in to settings once this problem starts and shut off the WiFi and then try to turn it back on it just says error. Trying to turn on Bluetooth also does not work.

The solution is to reboot, however, it will only run for a short while before the problem returns. I have tried the stock rom rooted and unrooted, I have tried various roms, revolution, prime, revolver. After flashing a rom or doing a factory reset the transformer will run for around 12 hours without the above mentioned problem but it always comes back and it happens more and more frequently until I do a factory reset.

I have tried countless things. Various roms as mentioned, factory resets, freezing as much as I can using titanium backup, not adding a Google account, turning off gps, different wireless networks, assigning a static ip address, using ExtSd2InternalSd v2.1 to install apps on an sd card. All of this with no success.

Enter that dip switch. I decided since my warranty was over I would open it up and do some poking around. I discovered if I put that switch in the up position and boot the transformer with it plugged into the charger it runs perfectly stable. The issue is gone. only problem is that I can only use it plugged in. This situation lead me to the conclusion that it is a power supply issue, maybe a defective battery (Not getting the full 1.21 gigawatts :). So.... I switched out the battery in my dock with the one in the transformer and put the dip switch in its original down position..... No Luck, the problem persisted. Return the switch to up and plug it in, runs great.

Anyone have an idea?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
How does it run while the switch is down (in the crappy position) and plugged in?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatton13:
The problem is still there. I even tried it in the down position with the battery disconnected and the transformer plugged into the charger but the problem continued.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
I guess it could be a power/hardware issue or maybe a sleep/software issue. Perhaps it doesn't sleep while it's plugged in?

Regardless, it's quite an interesting problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatton13:
gee one, thanks for your help. Maybe someone will come up with a fresh idea, I have tried most of what I can think of.

I might try the dual boot Ubuntu thing to see if I have the problem in Ubuntu. I figure that mite help narrow down if it is a software or hardware problem. I lean towards hardware because I have not been able to find others with this issue. Then again, maybe others that have had this problem had a warranty and returned it for an exchange.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatton13:
Forgot to mention, I tried setting the screen to never shut off in hopes that it would prevent the transformer from sleeping. Not sure if there is another way to prevent it from sleeping? Whatever the case leaving the screen on did not prevent the problem from surfacing.
