Thats good to know... All the stories I have heard have involved issues... I've only had success from sense personally, but with no sd card thats a no go (thanks crump ;) ) ...since you are s off you could also fastboot flash the images (last resort, it's not extremely difficult, but by no means easy)... I would keep trying the ruu with different cables if you have any...

I'm sure if worst comes to worst someone around here has a extra/old sdcard laying around somewhere and could pm you to get you one. I use to have a extra one but gave it away to my daughter.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] dginsd:
I just got my Samsung Infuse 4G, and I'm very interested in learning to flash to improve the performance of my new toy, but I'm kinda intimidated lots to learn and seems like a steep "learning curve. Can someone point me in the right direction on a good place to start (good reading).

I'm most interested in using the Zeus ROM as it seems to not lose any functionality, uses the most current modem, allows for overclocking. Is there anything else I shouldn't flash with this ROM I've. heard things mentioned in other threads like, lag fixes, different kernels, and other various fixes. But like I said I'm a noob and have a ton of questions even about the most basic of topics.

All I've done thus far is installed the free version of ROM manager, used the flash Clockworkmod recovery, and used the backup current ROM (which would be the stock one). I'm a little scared to proceed as after I backed up the current ROM I went looking for the file I named but couldn't find it.

I think what I need most is a good starting point, any help is appreciated.

I'd recommend Titanium Backup & Dropbox, they've come in pretty handy for me. And pay close attention when instructions say to wipe! I'm pretty new at this too, but I grasped the importance of the wiping after reading through a few threads and seeing what happened to those who forgot/didn't.

Result of my first flash

OK I've done quite a bit of reading over the last 24 hours familiarized myself with how flashing is done. Thus far I've flashed first the Infusion Kernel found here xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1134995 using ROM manager with ClockWorkMod Recovery. Got a little worried at first because it took so long to boot afterwards :(, but thanks to qkster's noob post I kinda expected it, it helped me a lot, so again thank you for that.:D

I do have some minor problems and some questions. In ROM manager I selected the option to flash ROM from SDcard, it then prompts me to select the ZIP file to flash and after I select it it asks me what to wipe so I select everything, It then reboots into CWM. I then have to select

again

flash from SDcard and select the file, my question is am I supposed to have to re-select "flash from SDcard" and re-select the ZIP file to flash? When I flashed the Zeus ROM I didn't do any wiping in CWM because I had selected those options in ROM manager, is this a goof up on my part, was I supposed to wipe again once inside CWM? I ask this because it seems like nothing was wiped, all my apps were still there, settings, pretty much everything. I also have an error right after I boot the phone up and my desktop is loaded, I then get a pop up thats really quick maybe 10 seconds

The application android system (process system) has stopped unexpectedly please try again[CODE] with a force close button. Everything seems to work fine on the phone so I'd like to know what this error is about, is it linked to me not wiping everything once in CWM?

There is also some instructions for the Zeus ROM that I didn't understand regarding the swype keyboard not installing with the flash and I had an error pertaining that as well. The instructions on the Zeus ROM read as follows [QUOTE]This theme includes a themed swype keyboard (Thanks to nunhugger and studacris). After flash of the theme, Do not open swype, go to root explorer and install it, then it will work flawless. For some reason it will not install on flash, but its all good.
[/QUOTE]
This instruction is listed for the Aries theme (which I tried first) not the ICS revamped, but I'm having the same issue. How do I install Swipe via root explorer. I also really liked the Samsung keyboard any way to get that back? I did use titanium backup for a lot of my apps (haven't restored anything yet, as everything seems to still be there) but I'm not sure I did for the Samsung keyboard. Anyone have an .APK of it they can get to me?

Any help with my issues is greatly appreciated, keep in mind though I'm still a noob so instructions given that a 10 year old can follow are preferred.:p My wife likes the look of my phone now and wants me to do hers too, so I want to make sure I do it right, it's one thing to brick your own phone, quite another to brick your wife's.

You say you have 1GB Internal Memory - you must be using DATA2SD, am I right?

The phone is booting off internal memory, and your sd-ext is part of that. The phone will not fully boot until that ext has been mounted and read fully.

Hence, if you have a slow SD card, you have a slow boot.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] frank8080:
Is it possible to get the mobile signal strength on GT 7.7 :confused:

I had try lots of ways but can't successful.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] crashbfg:
What you mean "get"? To get it as a function in your own app's code or just you want to see it? :)

Turn off WiFi and you'll see strength bars in notification popup (on the place where you usually see WiFi signal bars).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
There are plenty of apps like this one that display signal info:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cellsignaltester.moby

You can also get that in the About page of the device settings. What exactly are you after?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] AllGamer:
nooooo, use this one instead, this Widget is better

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.staircase3.opensignal
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
It's all the same data obtained from the phone. A widget tends to suck battery and performance so that's why I recommended a simpler app. Since there are a ton of them, it's really incumbent on the end user to decide what they like.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] crashbfg:
All of that apps doesn't work on SGS2/Tab7.7 (Exynos-based chipsets).

No, they work (run), but unable to show correct signal level due to a "bug" in modem FW. They always show +85dbm. So the only way to see correct signal strength is the system signal meter in statusbar.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] frank8080:
Any way to update the modem driver to fix the Bug ?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] crashbfg:
Don't think so. Samsung does not care about it - still not fixed even on SGS2, which is already on the market for a long time. Maybe it will be fixed with ICS release, nobody knows.

I have been experiencing weird functioning of the IM+ Instant messenger, on my Mango Omnia 7.

This was a very bad idea for me. I am having the same problem where my phone isn't receiving voicemail notifications. I found this solution so I thought what the heck lets try it. I used root explorer to replace my phone.apk with this one and I set the proper permissions rw-r-r. After doing this I started getting an error loop. Every time I would click no I don't want to report this to htc another one would pop up. I pulled the battery and restarted my phone, same problem. Pretty much my phone was screwed so I pulled the battery and re installed my rom. Maybe there is another way your suppose to go about replacing a extremely important system file? I don't know but any helpful hints or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Was using stock 2.3.3 but flashed 2.3.6 KPP. Played around with a few CM7 roms and decided to go back to stock. Heard had to flash stock first (due to stock not having ext4) so flashed the closest one i could find on samfirmware. Ran the CWM backup and this presents two issues:-

1) Kies says cannot use this device. Is this because it is detecting the baseband from the one file package i flashed?

2) Trying to install from market and it says cannot install to the chosen storage.

Anyone know what might have happened.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Budge:
I've been playing the Drag Racing app in my spare time the last couple of days, so my battery has been draining faster than normal. So when I checked my battery usage, I noticed that the two top uses were the game and the display (obviously). However, I also noticed that Pandora has been using 8-10% of my battery each day. I haven't used Pandora in a couple of weeks. It's not showing up as an active program is the stock AT&T Task Killer.

So I cleared the App Memory and killed all tasks (I know, we're not supposed to do that :rolleyes:). And this morning, I noticed that after two hours of the phone being unplugged, I've already lost 2% of my battery to Pandora.

What gives, and how do I stop this program from using battery when I'm not using it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dante501:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Budge:
But by the end of the day, it's at 8-10%. And 2% is probably on the low side because I play the Drag Racing app for about an hour (half the time off the charger) while I was waiting at the airport. My battery was at 68% after 2 hours off the charger. Otherwise, the Pandora percentage would probably have been higher.
