[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I didn't see any posts that you said pictures are actually missing, it seems you just think you would have filled your external..? You can try an app called file expert, choose "my files" then pictures, and it will find all the pictures on the phone.. or the app quickpic has an option to scan folders that have a .nomedia file in them, perhaps your pics are getting saved in a folder that doesn't show? Either way quickpic does a better job than gallery at finding all of your pics.

If you are thinking your sd card would be full from pictures, look at the size of your pictures files. At full resolution highest quality, I don't have any over 2 megs in size, so with an empty 2 gig sd card you would need to likely take over 1000 pictures to fill it up.

If you are sure you have lost pictures/videos that should be on your external, I would replace that sucker and take it as a lesson. Or save to internal, you aren't likely to lose those regardless..
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Ill try quickpic, and then ill report back to you.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Nope still didn't find them =/
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Did you hit menu>show hidden?

That will show you the pics if they are being saved in a hidden non-scannable folder..
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thousandpimps:
Hi Guys,

So i just bought a HTC Hero from a friend. It is on Telus network and I am on Bell. So i bought this unlock code form ebay. Now I go into

menu>settings>location and security>set up sim lock(its checked)> then press it and it tell me to put a pin, I put the unlock code I got from ebay and it does not work.

Am I putting the pin in the right place? what is a sim pin? if this is something else then how do I retrive a sim pin. I have never put any kind of pin on my sim so unless my phone provider did.

Also I am reading through a lot of forums and people are talking about ROM and Flash what are all these? When I go into Settings I see a Tasty OC on my phone, what is that? does it come with all HTC Hero phones?

Thanks a lot in advance :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saj222:
To unlock, I think you need to power on the phone with your bell sim card. It'll ask you to enter the code then.

As for Tasty OC, think that is from the custom ROM Tasty Froyo.

ROMs are custom operating systems. You'll find sense based ones and non sense ones. How you apply a ROM is by flashing. Go read the sticky in the development thread its pretty good. **edit: this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=797740
[General Questions and Answers] Bacardi222:
Hey, I have a question I'd like to have answered best by setting up a scenario.

I currently have a broken smartphone, what I'd like to do is buy a new one on ebay (with a clean esn) and simply transfer my number over to the new phone and start using it. Is this possible without having to pay an early termination fee or something for the previous broken phone? and would I be able to just use this new phone and sell the previous one with no issues?

Thanks a lot for the help.
[General Questions and Answers] nivek64:
No, the provider does not need to know where you bought the phone from. All you have to do is call their support line and tell them that you are transferring the current number to a different one and provide them with the new ESN. As long as the ESN is clean, you should not have any problem. Been there and have done that myself.

I use MIUI myself, but I did come from a Sammy-based ROM and even tried CM for a few weeks.

Voice your opinions, and let us know why!

[Galaxy S II General] robotapocalypse:
I haven't tried MIUI yet, so I won't vote. But I've been playing with the stable version of Cyanogen Mod for a week now and like it. It's heads and shoulders better than the stock ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] Logi_Ca1:
CM-based ROMS are nice, but video hardware decoding support is spotty. I use my phone to play 1080p/720p videos quite often, which are often unwatchable using software decoders. So I have no choice but to stick with Samsung-based ROMs for now...
[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
Incorrect, try Dice Player. It's fantastic and by far superior then Sammy stock.

Lol agree with u fella. To @OP

I like roms that are already in the android development.

But on a serious note if we all voted on a best rom everyone would be using that. You are only going to get different opinions. But good luck anyway.
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
I never tried MIUI because it looks to me like a clone of iPhone, when I want iPhone I buy iPhone... :p

I used CM7 because of its configuration options and theme chooser, hope CM9 will get them too... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] tameracingdriver:
I've tried all of them.

I prefer Samsung based ROMs at this time. They just seem to be the smoothest, most reliable ROMs which is not a surprise really. I did go through a phase where almost everything was stock but I've gone back to Go Launcher and Go SMS as I found the Samsung launcher too limiting (even though it is smooth, though Go Launcher isn't far behind) and the same can be said for the Sammy SMS app, also I find it a little slower than Go SMS in terms of responsiveness.

Cyanogen ROMs I feel do not run as fluidly as Samsung ROMs, and generally contain more bugs. As another poster said, they lack some of the codec support of the Samsung ROMs. Also, and I realise you can change this with themes etc, but the AOSP Android is a bit bland, at least in pre-ICS form. And CM9 simply isn't ready yet as a daily driver IMO. I look forward to revisiting CM9 when it is more polished.

MIUI ROMs I really like in terms of features. Everything you need is there out of the box, however, I find them resource hogs, and go a step further again than Cyanogen in not running as fluidly. You can see this when jumping from screen to screen or navigating menus, it feels like I am running an old Nexus One again in terms of speed. It just isn't fluid. This was a while ago so maybe things have changed. If they sorted these issues out, it could be the most fantastic ROM.

So Samsung ROM for me at the moment.
[Galaxy S II General] nicholaschum:
Well, I dont see how this post is the same as those noob questions on whats the best rom you see, if i posted one of those questions, it would be all those "there is no such thing as a best rom, only what fits you" kind of answers all over the place. This is only trying to get people to know what kind of ROMs we are all running, and also its the kind of stats that gets people knowing how many people are using what kind of rom.

hehehe and also you wrote android development, meaning you like Sammy-based ROMs, should have just entered it in the poll.

As stated, you don't have to write why you like it, just click on what you use in the poll, and people who are actually interested would actually care about the stats. No ROM discussion is required if the repliers don't want to reply. Just a poll.

[Galaxy S II General] :
true Sir i did not see the poll you already had above as i was on the phone. but anyhow android development is not just sammy based roms you have MIUI in there plus CM7 like builds and ICS:p but personally for me..I like so far yes you got it right Sammy based roms....But as soon source code gets released and Siyah is out for CM9 and they get it more stable i am making the leap straight away....

Cheers...Still find this pointless thread but anywhoo;)
[Galaxy S II General] SiSL:
I also prefer stock ROM's.

Not to ditch efforts of all custom ROM makers, but two reasons my stock preference. I really don't trust enough to 3rd party applications much. That's even true for my desktop computer.

Second of all, I'm a bit lazy to deal with any problems, bugs or other stuff that may occur and obviously more chance of bricking phone with 3rd parties.

Third reason unlike most, I really like TouchWiz and additions that Samsung did over standard Android. I have two other Android based devices, one of them is default, other is HTC. I know they lack a lot of free utilities and touch & feel, (and no Sense does not cut it)
[Galaxy S II General] Logi_Ca1:
I should have mentioned that I used MX Video Player, which falls back to SW Codecs 70% of the time. Gonna do a quick install of CM7 and see what you say about Dice Player is true.
[Galaxy S II General] MR.change:
Does MX video player rely on samsung codecs? because I use it with my stock rom and the latest versions play almost everything in Hw decoders.

Older versions used to play some video files in sw decoders , but now everything is hardware accelerated and I even use it instead of the default player.

So my understanding is that if an update made the app support more video formats in Hw decoding mode ,then it should be indpendent of the rom we're using ,right?
[Galaxy S II General] B3311:
Anorexic stock for me. Never liked MIUI, and appreciate the stability/100% functionality of stock over CM every time.

[Galaxy S II General] AcmE85:
I switched to the Samsung-Based Chameleon Rom recently.

When I got my Phone, my main concern about Stock was the whole look of the TouchWizUi.

I started to flash some themes and tweaks, but in the end it didn't seem "perfect" enough. I wanted AOSP Apps etc...

Then I tried CM9 (back in Alpha-Stage) and kept switching between stock and CM9, eventually I kept CM9.

The work the cm team has done (and still does) is outstanding, and I am really thankful.

But every now and then there are these little things that annoy you, which interfere with the phones function

as a phone

.

Signal loss, messages which are not going through, people calling me and getting "not available" though I have the phone in my hands with full bar signal...

These things could be avoided if Samsung would give proper developer support...It's always the same old story. -> blame Samsung!

The reason why I switched to this particular rom is simple:

It really looks and feels like AOSP Android and is in no way any slower or more laggy than CM9 was on my phone.

+ it has all working AOSP apps included. Other Samsung-based custom roms with AOSP apps gave me the occasional FC now and then.

Minus the annoyances CM had from time to time.

I really wish that Samsung would put out open source drivers and source code for this phone,

but right now I am more than happy to have found this rom and hope that jazzk will continue his work if Samsung releases JB for the S2.

JB still isn't stable enough for my liking yet - speed & free RAM are keys & the JB roms I've trialled so far fall short in both areas...

[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
Samsung ROM is a design mess. I never liked it but have to grant that it has some nice applications.

CyanogenMod is really good. After all it's based on how Google thinks a phone interface should be and I agree it's better. The problem is that it has a lot of issues with devices as most companies don't support Open Source developers and they need to find a way to support things or even don't support them at all (TV Out, Radio, etc). Stability is mainly on par but it depends on the phone as I said. For the GS2 network stability is subpar IMO but I refuse to switch to Samsung ROM. :p

I like some MIUI interfaces but as it's based on Samsung ROM for 4.0 I avoid it. Installed exDialer on CM9 that is the way a dialer should be. ;)

Has anyone able to play game air penguin with sgn before?

Sensors left and right are becoming forward and backward in the game.

Sensors front and back are becoming right ward and left ward in the game.

Is this bug is game software related or sgn related.

Or I got a faulty sgn?

Seems it is just a bug in air penguin itself.

However I found another funny anomalies.

When trying to purchase doodle jump full game, I got error message when registering my credit card.

Found out that if we provide credit card google will automatically install google wallet in our sgn.

So i tried to install it manually then i got message telling that google wallet is not compatible with my sgn.

Seems not only google wallet. Another apps such as groupon is also said the same error with sgn.

Do you guys know anything about this incompatibilities?

I think google wallet is quite essential otherwise how people could buy some paid apps?

For your info, My rom is latest dx la1, stock firmware which got it updated via kies.

And i always factory reset after every update.

1.) download CWM for S5360 : CWM-Mod_gt-s5360.zip 1Mb and a2sd enabler .

2.) extract a2sd enabler and take dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip . but don't extract CWM for S5360.

3.) backup ur sd card, because when partition is running ur data will be delete. now we work.

4.) copy CWM for S5360 to ur sd card. go to recovery mode (volume up+home+power), and than go to instal Zip from sd card than chose CWM-Mod_gt-s5360.zip.

5.) Now u r in CWM mod, chose advance and create partition. for the next chose everymuch that u wanna partition ur sd card. wait until partition is done.

6.) unplug ur sd card and copy take dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip and copy again CWM for S5360.

7.) go to recovery mod again and go to CWM mod. go to instal zip from sd card. and choose dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip. wait until done and u will be bootloop but dont worry this means the program is running.

8.) now if U have Titanium backup, instal it or go to market to download it. look, is there sd (a2sd). and than instal/download better terminal emulator.

9.) come in to better terminal emulator and write

#su

$a2sd cachesd

10.) now all of ur data move to ext sdcard... :)

Apps2SD:

Easy to use

Moves the largest part of an application

Does not move all of the application

Can still run out of internal storage even if every app is moved to the SD card

Link2SD:

More difficult to set up

Requires you to partition SDcard

Can move all 3 parts of an application

Less room can be taken on internal memory, practically nothing enabling you to install nearly unlimited apps.
