[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooza:
That one Im not sure of but I have read on other threads that people have had to "repartition" their phones to be able to flash back from ICS.Not bieng on ICS I dont see why you cant as the Omega ROM was just themed.Im on the latest Omega and its 2.3.6. so 100% positive it wasnt ICS.Also Try stupid things like another com port.Happened to me once.The one I was using when I had an i9000 stopped letting me flash it via Odin when it reached the same stage every time I tried.Dont Know why.Just had to change ports.Try everything:

1.Full wipe and flash.....If that dont work then...

2.Flash F/W that works then change kernel and flash old bootloader(as mentioned above)never know,might work.

Flash it in PDA in Odin.

ALso you could try a program called "Fus Downloader"

when i had problems with odin failing i changed the usb cable and it worked a treat. wouldnt work at all with a cheap unofficial cable :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooza:
True.Same thing happened to my mate.He has an i9000 and Odin stopped flashing his phone but only if he used a PIT file so I gave him my i9100 cable and it started flashing his phone again with PIT file selected.Weird how things work sometimes for no real reason.Anyway Nandroid backups are always a good call.could have saved some trouble the this case.Ive got a Nandroid backup on my phone and copied to DropBox thats months old but it would get me out of trouble if this sort of thing happened to me Even though its old as.Gotta have that saftey net.

Mate,thats a strange one alright.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooza:
Any luck yet.I was thinking that you might have to look for a package that has the older 4 file flash with pit.Its possible that maybe you need to repartition your device.Might be hard to find thought.

I'm in the market for a new wireless-N router, since my current piece-of-$h1t 2Wire router (provided by AT&T with my U-Verse service) is only G. I'll be using it for my laptop (gaming laptop), as well as wifi for my xbox, which I use for streaming Netflix. I'm also planning on getting a new android tablet (probably the new Asus MeMO 370T whenever it comes out). So because of the 360 and tablet, I would like something with decent range, and because of streaming, and the potential of using at least two, possibly three wireless devices simultaneously, I would like something with decent bandwidth and throughput.

Right now I'm looking at the following routers, but I'm by no means decided, hence this post.

D-Link DIR-655: http://www.amazon.com/D-Link-DIR-655-Extreme-N-Gigabit-Wireless/dp/B000LIFB7S

Linksys E4200 V2: http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-Perfo...2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327071829&sr=1-2

Linksys E4200: http://www.amazon.com/Cisco-Linksys...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327071829&sr=1-1

Any opinions on these three, or any other recommendations?
[Networking] I2IEAILiiTY:
The only benefit you'll get from wireless-N is range depending on which internet package you have. I taught my dad that the other night, lol.

ASUS is BOSS

Without question the best dual-band wireless router with a management interface is the ASUS RT-N56U. I own one and it blows the doors of my fourth generation apple airport extreme. It handles Double NAT, VPN pass-through, and all of the other features that have become normal in a professional sense.

Hi all,

I was wondering if any of you could spare me 20 seconds of your time to give me a hand with a research project I'm doing for one of my modules at University. I'm studying software engineering (third year now) and every year there's always one module you don't really want to do but have too! Anyway, I'm researching into mobile game development (Android) and was hoping some of you could fill out my research survey for me. There's only 7 short questions :)

Hey guys(:

Can anyone recommend any good multitasking apps to me?:D

Like one where u can long press the home button and see running apps, and then being able to close or terminate it. The apps do not necessary have to have these features, its just an impression of my ideal multitasking app:p
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] vikasb32:
Try smart taskswitcher.long press search key to recant,running,favorite etc.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] jhowdbv:
Search MultiTasking lite/pro (i use the pro version) on the market. In my opinion is the best. BTW in cm settings (if you use cyanogenmod) you can set an app as long home key shortcut.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] smackdownn:
iam having the worst ever audio quality over bluetooth while listening to songs...whenever there's treble it sounds like a worst radio quality..iam using sony ericsson MW600 bluetooth stereo headset..does someone have a solution for this? or is this universal problem?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PickleHead:
That sounds like it's using the hands free profile instead of A2DP. You could try going to the options of your bluetooth headset on and untick the "Phone" box, and make sure "Media" is ticked.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Barkotron:
I have generally decent bluetooth audio using Motorola T505 to broadcast FM to the car radio (must get around to buying a proper BT head unit, or a new car with one built in...). Most of the problems I have are interference with the FM signal rather than dodgy bluetooth.

However, I do see this kind of bad distortion on the high end with certain pieces of music - generally the solution is to turn down the volume on the Note a couple of notches and crank it up on the car stereo. I assume some of my tunes are just recorded/ripped REALLY DAMNED LOUD, it seems to mainly be things I ripped myself years ago so I probably didn't pay much attention to the levels at the time.

If you lower the volume from the Note does the distortion disappear?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mustasusi:
No, still there. I'm using Galaxy note and noticed a similar problem, both with a pair of Plantronics BackBeat and bluetooth car kit FM transmitter. It sounds pretty fine on my Archos 5IT that is running Android 1.6 and my Nokia N900 running Maemo. My note is currently running on Android 2.3.6 Rocket 12.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chaosdefinesorder:
Bluetooth stereo sounds great for me using Sennheiser MM-200...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bloodyhippo:
If you have exceptionally bad audio quality, it's probable that the headset is being used in handsfree audio mode, and not media mode. If you go to settings>bluetooth, and click on your device, you should see which modes are ticked.

Also, some people have reported better bluetooth audio quality with the LR1 modem. See here:

[Motorola Droid X2] haliwa04:
Anyone know why videos on Netflix are all pixelated on the x2? Is there a fix?
[Motorola Droid X2] robocuff:
My guess is you have a connection problem of some sort. Are you using it on wireless or 3g? Mine is usually clear. Only time it gets pixelated is when my internet connection is acting up (having trouble with it at home right now). When the connection is working as it should, Netflix works great. If my connection starts going bonkers, the picture will pixelate for a few seconds and then clear up again as the signal gets better. Until my internet problems at home, I never had any problems with it. This reminds me. Have to call my ISP, again. :rolleyes:
[Motorola Droid X2] haliwa04:
Tried on my wifi McDonald's wifi 3g. All Pixelated
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Netflix looks good on mine. On 3G Nd wifi.
[Motorola Droid X2] Skelente:
Just tried on my home wifi. Looks just fine, although at the beginning it was pixelated. IIRC Netflix tried to use an algorithm to change its quality to best suit your connection speeds. As has been said previously, WIFI is recommended over 3G, but you might also want to look into some scripts (speedy comes to mind, but I haven't kept up with that compared to what comes with the latest roms tbh).
[Motorola Droid X2] haliwa04:
Dumped the x2, netflix looks 100x better.
[Motorola Droid X2] swbf2lord:
Its most likely a network difference. The Thunderbolt has 4G, and the X2 has 3G. The reason you just downgraded is because the X2 is way faster than the Thunderbolt. The Tegra 2 processor is no joke.
[Motorola Droid X2] haliwa04:
Actually its a major upgrade. Even rooted with cm7 the thunderbolt is blowing the x2 out of the water
[Motorola Droid X2] swbf2lord:
Mmhmm.... Where are you getting your information? What are you basing this on? Which device was running CM7?
[Motorola Droid X2] haliwa04:
Basing it off being able to fly through app after app, webpages being crystal clear, music not skipping or forcing closed. The x2 was running cm7. The locked bootloader sucked balls. I like changing kernels,radios, etc. Thunderbolt does everything I ask it to without hesitating
[Motorola Droid X2] swbf2lord:
While I do agree that a locked bootloader is terrible (my previous device was unlocked), I have to say that your other evidence merely comes from OS tweaks, not speed. The Xperia play browser is smoother in scrolling than the X2s, but that doesn't mean that it is faster. A good way to see performance differences is to try heavy emulators like N64oid and FPSe with 0 frameskips and graphics smoothing on and you will see a significant difference in performance, especially with FPSe, which has dual core optimization.
[Motorola Droid X2] haliwa04:
When I put my cm7 x2 next to my RF stock TB yea the x2 wins in quadrant scores, but that means nothing when a game like fruit ninja lags on my phone but not hers. Or videos from SD card are pixelated but not on the tb

Have not read much in this thread but I was just wondering if anyone that is having problems with Netflix have you by chance tried using a lcd density changer to clear up the screen? I'm using LCD modder with the dpi set to 200 & Netflix looks pretty good....Hope it helps...
[Motorola Droid X2] IDMA.DROID.X2:

Just tested and the search does not work inn portrait but works fine when you have the phone in landscape hope it helps...
[Motorola Droid X2] IDMA.DROID.X2:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jeffp25:
When I first tried connecting the Skyrocket to my desktop PC, it reported that it couldn't find the drivers. After searching around, I found out about the Kies software and installed that. Initially, it wouldn't see the Skyrocket, but somehow in my testing/experimenting it suddenly saw the phone and everything was OK.

I've just connected the Skyrocket to my laptop, which of course doesn't see the storage on the phone. I've installed Kies, rebooted, and played around with it for a while, but it still can't see the phone.

Is there a basic process I should follow to get this to work, one that doesn't involve trial and error and jumping around on one foot while tapping out the Swedish national anthem in morse code with my right pinkie?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jeffp25:
Never mind ...

I found the problem: it was the cable! I was using a different cable with my laptop than with the desktop - a thin one that came with an external battery unit for recharging. I suspect that this cable didn't support the data lines. When I switched to another cable, both drives (the main memory and the microSD card) showed up as drives under Windows. When I then went in and enabled "USB mass storage" on the phone, the contents of the phone showed up and became accessible.

Still, I don't know why Samsung doesn't make the drivers easily available without installing their Kies software.
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
best? never ever. read tests and reviews on the internet. most free antivir software for android is useless because the recognition rate is very poor. 1-3 out of 120 threads were found with the best free anti virus app. I would use a paid version like kaspersky
[HTC Wildfire S] *se-nsei.:
Poor? Really?

It's the only full mobile security suite that offers working root features. There is a STEALTH option for the app to survive a hard reset, disable usb debugging, siren, GPS, message, forwarding, control and lock the phone all using the anti-theft remote feature.

advanced firewall, virus scanner, web guard, privacy advisor, app management..

It's lightweight on the memory and it looks appealing. What's poor about it?
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
what's poor? as I said, the recognition rate of viruses and malware. I just read it and saw a documentation in tv. although avast might be not that bad. I use avast for my pc, too and I like it
[HTC Wildfire S] samgotit:
I've been using Avast on all of my desktops and laptops that i've used for the last 8 years and it never let me down..

I installed it on my phone as well a couple of months back..and it's never let me down too..till me phone wasn't rooted, the firewall option was disabled, but now even that's open..tried it out and i can definitely say its in par with its desktop counter part and way ahead of its paid android competitors..
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
This is boss.
[HTC Wildfire S] koeniekoenie:
I tried it, and it is the best thing since sliced bread. It does not make my phone lag at all, anti theft works wonderfully, and the detection rate is (apparently did not try it myself :P) also very high. If you are like me and you download many APK's from the net, it could just save your phone, or your bank account xD.
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
What he said.
[HTC Wildfire S] koeniekoenie:
It is a shame that I cannot find the source anymore, but the detection rate was somewhere in the 90%.
[HTC Wildfire S] Nicknoxx:
I'm sure Avast will have a great detection rate, the problem come in the time between the malware being release and it being detected by the AV software. All companies/products will be affected by this and in that window your phone/computer/whatever can be harmed. Having said that I place my trust in a company with a very good track record of creating AV software and the anti-theft features make it a no-brainer for me. Avast Rocks.

You were new once, too.

hahaha ty, been up since 6 to work and this gave a nice chuckle!

Agreed, however isn't it silly to ask about ram when he/she doesn't know what it is? (Sorry op, I'm banking on that assumption due to the fact that you think S-OFF and Ram affect each other) Ram and S-Off relating is quite unlikely, I wouldn't root my phone to downgrade!

If anyone were to be in your position, I'm sure most would've at least looked up how this would relate to ram before asking.. There ARE such things as stupid questions.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davisondan:
I have read a lot of opinions about what the new 4G LTE will mean to current 4G phones from definately won't work to it will just need a radio update. Is anyone really in the know on this subject and what is the correct answer?

Of course it probably doesn't mean anything for my EVO as we still do not have Wimax 4G in our area, only got to use 4G once on a layover in Dallas, makes me glad to continue to pay the $ 10 monthly fee that was started with the EVO 4G phone service plan requirements.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
It will NOT work with ANY phone currently out now. Wimax and LTE are completely different technologies, a simple radio flash will not make wimax phones connect to LTE. You will have to wait until sprint releases LTE phones.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikemb:
great question. I was wondering the same thing. I thought that they were different radio chips but I am not positive, Look forward to an answer from an expert.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
A simple OTA won't fix that. if the radio was built in, then perhaps [what they're considering on the galaxy nexus]. But sprint plans to support wimax til 2015 I believe, so basically if you don't have an LTE phone by then, you won't be supported.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davisondan:
I upgraded to a Motorola Photon for a week just before Sprint started to switch over to the LTE and asked this question on the Photon forum, had answers all over the place, but the one thing that Sprint did tell me is if you currently do not have 4G Wimax in your area you will not as Sprint is not expanding the 4G wimax, only the 4G LTE will be expanded into new areas. This leaves me with a PROMISE that I got when I first started to pay the $ 10 per month that Sprint will be expanding it and you will sometime in the future be able to use the 4G.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kidFromBigD:
Not exactly an expert here, but Sprint re-sells Clearwire WiMax operating in the 2.6GHz range of the spectrum. Sprint plans to deploy LTE in their existing 1.9GHz range of spectrum holdings. They are planning a 5x5 Frequency Division Duplexing scheme here.

So, to answer the question: There's no way existing WiMax devices will ever support Sprint's upcoming LTE deployment. Chipsets, frequencies and overall technology built into your EVO 4G is simply incompatible. Case closed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conductive:
Sprint always seems to want to sell a new wimax phone. I am wondering if they have an upgrade plan for those holding a wimax phone when wimax goes away?

If they do not have a plan when the best time to switch is and is it even worth it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottypeterson:
So is the extra $10 we pay for data for the 3G or the 4G we are supposed to get? Sorry it may be a dumb question but I'm on a plan with my fiancés parents.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
The 10$ is for the 4G.
