[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mael5trom:
If you are actually serious about being able to play games properly on your phone, then buy the play, its honestly that simple, ...you could buy a slider keyboard for emulators, but then what about consoles with shoulder buttons, what about n64 that requires the an analog stick? what about all those fantastic games on the market that support hard keys for the play and not other slider keyboard phones?

the play makes a pretty decent phone, however i would recommend you root the phone to bypass the internal storage memory limit which is quite handicapped.

Apart from not being the hottest hardware available, the xplay is decent in pretty much every respect, and it excels at games. the battery life is usually quite good, you should easily be able to get a day out of it including a couple of hours of gaming. If thinness isnt an issue you can get an extended battery to really give you some serious runtime.

also remember your not limited to ps1, or n64 as a mentioned above, you have virtually every console up to the n64 as well, and most of them play amazingly.

Do you get any lag in any games like GTA 3 or any ps1 roms etc?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mael5trom:
theres a tiny amount of lag in gta3 when theres lots of stuff onscreen when my phone is overclocked to 1.5ghz, gta3 is optimized for dual core, its probably the only game which is actually a bit slower on the play that i have found.

however it works with hw controls for the most part and is more than playable.

ps1 roms usually dont have any lag, although certain roms may, i cant remember playing any that had lag recently. FPSE has had very good dev support and has come a long way since i first downloaded it, it usually runs everything flawlessly.

Hi everyone I am Sean, and I just got my ATT SGS2 Yesterday. I think I followed a rooting guide for the non ATT one. The rooting was successful but my WIFI is down with no MAC Address, also I cannot seem to get any custom rom working.

Is there a way to get the Stock ATT Kernel so I can flash and start over. Is there a rooting guide specificly for the ATT version?

Thanks ahead of time!

Please read *before* you post a question. There is a lot of information available on the XDA I777 forums.

You clearly didn't read if you went and flashed something not meant for your device without VERY explicit instructions on what is OK to flash and how to flash it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BruteSource:
Actually as I have already explained I did read plenty, I found nothing in the Q&A Section, which is where a solution to a "Question" should be.

And the Guide I followed which was from XDA never once stated that it was only for the International version. Nor did it say it would not work for the AT&T version.

I have been with this community a long time and have never had someone as rude or unhelpful as you. Please do not reply to posts if you are not helping in anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
Even though you may have read threads in the Q&A section, a simple search would have pulled up the IMPORTANT threads taht are located in the Dev section that would have answered your questions... and why are they in the Dev section you ask? Because, when flashing anything to your phone like a rom or kernel, its considered DEVELOPMENT and you would have know that if you would have read.

Now go read some more and search. Thread closed.

Download this tool and follow the instructions. Do NOT try, do not wonder, just read and do, no try, just do.

PS> You'll be on the US version unless you change the flash image to the UK. Not sure what the difference is anyway. If you have to have an UK version then you can download one from ACER and put it on your SD Card and use recovery to flash it.

Hey folks, has anyone here experience any issue with data connection after flashing a modem?

I am on AT&T / KK1 / LA4 Modem right now. The phone was fine, until I flashed the LA4 modem. My data connection will disconnect itself once in a while, and it wouldn't come back up unless I switch on and off the flight mode. I tried to set to phone to WCDMA only as some suggested in the S2 forum, but the problem still there. And flash to other modems doesn't help either :(

Could it be possible I break some files during flash? I was using Speed Mod kernel, and switched back to CF-Root.

Thank you very much in advance~
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redbee:
Maybe an incompatibility between your base rom and the LA4 modem broke up some parameters. Did you try to flash the stock modem according to your rom ? Wipe cache and dalvik ? Re-enter your apn ?

Sadly... i didnt mark down the stock modem.. the rom is zskk1 . I did both wipe before installing modem all the time. Tried sone other modem like la3 etc... not helping :( guess i will try to flash it to stock and see if it helps..

[Motorola Photon 4G] CCallahan:
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 does, 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. Have used my phone for an alarm clock many times in the past but was afraid to keep the screen on all night.
[Motorola Photon 4G] schale01:
I have used mine as an alarm clock since I got it a 3+ months ago. The screens be on (superdim) every night too. No issue whatsoever. I don't use the dock but I assume it is the same alarm clock you get when you open the kickstand.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Miquiztli:
Burn in only occurs in older monitors not the newer technology.

There is however a similar affect known as image persistence (or retention )it however is not permanent and is easily avoided and removed...

If you left your screen on for a very long time with the same image all you would have to do is turn off the screen for a couple hours to a couple days and then turn it back on and it should no longer be there. If you do end up with it, and its driving you bonkers, use "dead pixel detect and fix" on the market its free and small and will show dead pixels if you have any.
[Nexus One General] Theshawty:
Alright, so I recently (like 30 minutes ago) installed texasice latest ICS evervolv build and I've come across an error, but this isn't tied to this ROM, I've had this error on CM7 as well. To the point:

My "free" apps aren't showing up in "My apps" in Market, only apps I've paid for. There's nothing wrong with my sdcard or ext partition so I'll rule that out of the equation. I suspect this might be because of the low cache partition. ICS has a cache partition (for market cache) of 16 megabytes and stock partition size is 97-ish megabytes. I've checked and apparently I have 14 megabytes left out of these 16 so where is the problem?
[Nexus One General] GuestX0019:
i don't think it is cache since it is only free ones. i would say market, and maybe the it reads your particular phone--not an expert by any means

i am sure you cleared data/cache in app mgt

can you try an older version or reflash gapps

seem to remember this issue coming up before but don't remember where

Did you update OTA? Also did you have OTA Rootkeeper installed? You have to have done both of these to be able to keep your root at present. They'll be working on a root for this update as we speak so it should be too long before a root emerges.

I was hoping to get some feedback babout which people think are best for battery life,signal strength, GPS, etc. I was hooked on EL13 modem then gave EL26 a try and it seemed to improve my 4g a bit. Then I went to EL29 and speed seemed great but battery was meh...however now it seems to be settling in nicely. Also, any thoughts about lockscreen mod and toggle mod using more battery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
EL29/EL29

So far battery life I've not had much of a problem and signal for me atleast has been great. Put EL29 in while I was in Mi over the xmas break and noticed that the signal I got while I was there was actually a little better.

As for the lock/toggle mods After redoing my phone to a new rom I've not reinstalled them and pretty much kept things stock. Didn't really notice any issues with widgetlocker when I was using it though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] limeaid:
I'm using EL26 modem and kernel with unnamed rom. Here is my personal experience with the different kernel/modem combos:

EL13 - best battery life, decent data speeds, least smooth of he three, very stable

EL26 - avg battery life, fastest data speeds, smoother than EL13, avg stability (some lockups, camera sometimes doesn't work, etc)

EL29 - worst battery life, avg data speeds, but most consistent, very stable, GPS sleep issue (this is the only kernel I experienced GPS lock issues with)

Given the battery drain and GPS issues, i'm disappointed that EL29 is going to be he official Ota update. I hope someone tweaks the kernel for better battery life

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I've tried ek02 modem for a while and EL29 recently. Because I've mostly used 3g, ek02 modem gives me slightly less signal but substantially faster data speeds. EL29 is better signal but slower speeds. My favorite kernel is desperado 1.3 ek02. The test setup I'm running now is stock odex el29, rogue stock el29 kernel and ek02 modem with hotspot mod. The performance of this setup is good so far and battery is holding up well. I've been running this for 24 hours now. I don't have the discipline and the attention span to test every modem ATM. I also 0'd out the multimedia proxies and ports and set the 4g retries to 15 seconds and -110DB receive, which made a huge improvement in that area.

EL13 Modem & Kernal with unNamed rom has been the best setup so far for me. Great battery life and everything works

I think the EL26/29 kernels and modems have poor battery life. EL29 modem gives me best coverage, but the battery life sacrifice is annoying.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
See there's 2 sets of toggle mods. Gtg's has the 4g toggle and only a,couple of others like flashlight and 2.7 has no CRT. The AIO toggles has more to customize plus the lockscreen mod. Calkulin's 2.7 with Minimal Black with gtg's toggles seemed solid (all EL26) almost as good as my strongsteve all EL13 setup. I am worried that the toggle customization and lockscreen options are taxing my battery but I have zero proof...its just a theory because more functions are running..hmmmm....decisions

dbm , it's somewhere bewteen -50 to -150 , if you are right beside a cell-tower , you should get -50 or -51 dbm , which means is strogest.

usually for me , at my room which is 3,4 walls to street , only get -100 dbm for 3G signal and about -80 dbm for 2G signal. and outside of home , inside downtown is about -70 dbm for 3G

take look at your status bar, signal bar , it will tell you signal is good or not.

Its sitting at -76 now. I'm wondering because my 3g speeds are ****. Its weird. It feels like the towers are under maintenance everyday or something.
