[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Bakuron:
Agree with PJ147, I'm running stock 2.3.3 and it's got several minor bugs - nothing disastrous but easily enough limitations to make the inquisitive person in me consider the possibility of flashing a custom rom. I haven't, purely for technical reasons and because you have to accept that a customRom requires a certain investment in time and attention.

The fact is that a vast amount of money has gone into creating your average stock-rom, whereas custom roms are the result of someone's singular hard graft and investment in time. There is only so far that a persons effort can be made to stretch with no financial incentive and very limited support. We're talking about a handful of enthusiasts competing against some wild expectation that they will be creating a vastly superior product to an organisation that makes millions from playing the same game.

If there is going to be a relevant point to this thread it's to dissuade your average punter from flippantly attempting to 'improve' their phone and use the achievements of others to profess their own genius - only to flip out when they realise not everything is perfect and that somehow they didn't get 'good value' when they paid the square root of **** all for their brand new Operating System.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ace_viknesh:
Stock ROM's are disgusting because they are just there for people who use the phone for calling, messaging and listening to music. For advanced users like us, the stock ROM is a great disadvantage. After I flashed a new ROM, my friends go "WOW!!!" and you realise that you have more people surrounding you advice. Also, XDA welcomes you with open hands. For stock ROM, only the second hand phone shop welcomes you. Its time for all Stock ROM uses with wider thinking to take a stand.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] pitbull111:
Its All About Your Preference..

It Totally Depends On Your Usage And Your Preference.

Yes There Are Some Minor Bugs In Roms Which Can Be Neglected Some Times.

I Dont Have Any Offence For Custom Rom Lover Even I Do Like Some...

Even Now I Am Using Custom Rom Which Is Rushab's Ics Stock Actually Its Based On Stock Rom...

It Basically Depends You Like Samsung Apps Or Not,Or Stock Rom...

Enjoy:D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] pyronia:
I prefer stock...now i use stock, boring of those custom rom that have so many bug than stock (it has bug but not to much)

Custom rom is for people who love theming and benchmark hunter :p

Hi,

It seems that my proximity sensor doesn't work with the Typhoon cyanogen mod (3.7.6).

Am I alone with this kind of problem or not? I haven't found the parameter in the setup menu... How can i solve this issue?

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] danielnn:
First off thanks to all the Devs, awesome work

thanks to pngwyn for very nice tutorial it helped me update to new OTA from clean rom 2.2 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1469957

Now my question is if I wanted to restore my backup Nand of clean rom 2.2 and use the kernal included in the rom all I would have to do is edit the android-info text file included in the kernal (PH98IMG.zip) from

modelid: PH9810000

cidnum: VZW__001

mainver: 1.02.605.6

hbootpreupdate:12

to

modelid: PH9810000

cidnum: VZW__001

mainver: 2.01.605.11

hbootpreupdate:12

that way we can make the HBOOT think it is up to date with the new mainver.

Can someone please confirm this to be the case and if so can i just extract edit and re-zip or do I need to use 7zip and just drag and drop to keep original signature, also if this is the case can I use winrar or does it not have the ability to do the same as 7zip. Thanx in advance...
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
If your mainver has not been updated yet there is no need to change it. A newer MainVer can be flashed over an older one but this isn't true in reverse. You're good to flash if you're using the PH98IMG.zip to flash the kernel after your Rom is restored.

Also, I've used WinRar to view/paste the android-info.txt in the kernel file. There is no need to extract it..just paste it. You shouldn't need to do this though.
[HTC Rezound] danielnn:
Mainver was updated when I took the ota, that's why I need to change the android-text to be able to flash a rom that has a kernel with the old Mainver in the text like clean rom 2.2. At least that's what I think. Please correct me if am wrong...

Also thanx for the reply.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
Oh I understand. Yes then you are correct...that is exactly what you need to do.
[HTC Rezound] danielnn:
Thanks again for the reply. I guess we could do this to flash any rom that has a kernel with the old Mainver. Sweet...
[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
Ok, before I go do this Nd forget....I too go back to stock to get the ota and tried flashing to my ics Roms and getting the infamous mainver error, so. U go in the Rom zip and into the android txt and change it to the current?
[HTC Rezound] danielnn:
Yeah just follow the instructions at first post, it works tested with clean rom 2.2.

I just dragged and dropped the new Mainver text into original kernel and flash.
[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
Yay, it worked! Thanks! I should be fine restoring old ics Rom right? And still keep my ota radios correct?
[HTC Rezound] oxlong27:
does anyone have the new mainver andro-text file for some reason i cant edit it
[HTC Rezound] danielnn:
here you go just copy paste

Use 7zip or winrar

the one posted is the one with new mainver
[HTC Rezound] andybones:
this one is the ICS leak..

forgive I never read the thread just saw that the main veri in the .txt is 3+ so ICS leak

not sure the the person wanted from the OTA which is 2.01.605.11
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mental.patient:
So basically...

I had originally bought my S2 with Cyanogen Mod 7 with the latest Gingerbread update.

I wanted to try out ICS, so installed a couple of ROMs but didnt like it that much so decided to reinstall the previous CM7 with CheckROM RevoHD V4...

On the first time I bought it and whilst playing around with ROMs battery life was great, but now that I have reverted back, the battery life is obismal.

Last night my battery went from 100% to 25% in about 6 hours of being on, mostly in standy, screen brightness at the lowest setting and hardly any use (kept turning it off to conserve battery)

Whilst my friend who has the same phone, running stock gingerbread was only down to 78% and his phone was on ALL night.

The battery stats show display useage as over 80% for me atm and im really confused, thismorning my phone has been off charge since 11:30 and in 3 hours its already down to 75% whilst idling and texting a couple of times.

Any ideas whats going on?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:

Do I need to leave it running on battery or what?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Yes. Don't leave it on charge. Charge it fully before you go to bed, leave it running on battery overnight.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mental.patient:
Ok, will do.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mental.patient:
Ok, so left it on overnight and all day without the charger...

I had the display on lowest setting, and useage was very rare as i didnt wanna risk it dieing on me.

By the end of it, my battery was at 7%...

Time since plugged in - 21hr~

Useage :

What does all of that mean, anything i need to fix?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zilez2003:
I am not expert, but it seems that while your phone is left, you have folowing wakelocks:

CommunicatorServiceWakeLock (kik.android.Kik Messenger): 27 m 26 s (1646 s) Count:312 2.2%

FMRadio Service (com.sec.android.app.fm.FM radio): 23 m 7 s (1387 s)

You should stop one of these applications, and than repeat all the process of fully charging the battery. Then look again what is eating our battery.

As I said, am not expert, so maybe I am wrong. But, after using Better Battery Stats, and disabling auto sync, now my battery last like it s not smartpfone. For example, this morning i took it from charger - I had today 15 calls, 7 messages, litle bit use of internet (wifi is turned on non stop,...), no games,... my battery after 14 hours is at 77%.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stonos:
Kik Messenger seems to be doing something while your phone is supposed to be sleeping. Try uninstalling it, and see if the situation improves.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Right as mentioned above, you have 2 major apps that are cuasing your phone to be kept awake.

Kik messenger & FM radio service, as you can see here:

CommunicatorServiceWakeLock (kik.android.Kik Messenger): 27 m 26 s (1646 s) Count:312 2.2%

FMRadio Service (com.sec.android.app.fm.FM radio): 23 m 7 s (1387 s) Count:1 1.9%

KikNetwork (kik.android.Kik Messenger): 6 m 27 s (387 s) Count:676 0.5%

kik.android (): Wakeups: 580

For Kik either sign out when you are not using it or freeze it with Titanium backup or uninstall it.

I guess you use the radio as well so shouldn't affect it that much.

Not sure if this is also affecting your battery:

com.google.android.apps.maps:MapsBackgroundService (com.google.googlenav.networkinitiated.NetworkInitiatedService)

Active since: 1 d 2 h 29 m 6 s

Last activity: 12 h 57 m 39 s

Crash count:0

Google maps, you can see it's been active for quite a while.

I suggest you grab Gemini app manager from the market, change to advance mode and disable autorun for Maps. So it won't autorun when you start your phone. Also disable any other apps you don't want auto starting.

To sum it up, you've got a smart phone, enjoy it make use of it and remember we can always charge on a nightly basis :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mental.patient:
Ye, I would prefer to keep it as alot of my friends dont have unlimited texts.

Ok thanks thats great

Ye I noticed it seemed to be active alot. But I always had Kik messenger installed without any problems.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:

hi, i've been using my sensation for 8 months now. rooted it a while back ago with revolutionary.

im running Virtuous Inquisition v3.0.0 on my phone right now.

*** LOCKED ***

PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-1.23.0000

RADIO-11.19.3504.2_2

i wonder if i should try to get back S-ON (though i AM afraid of bricking my device)

and send my phone to htc for waranty purpose (it has a minor charging problem, when i plug in the cable, i have to make sure its at a right angle for it to charge, like its a bit loose)

my questions are:

1. HBOOT - how can i know which is "root-able" (s-off/on-switchable)

i heard/read that newer hboot are not "unlockable" at the moment? which one is the lastest hboot, and what is the lastet-rootable one?

2. i didnt write my CID down when i changedit to superCID the day i rooted my phone. i only know i had a germany vodafone soft-branded phone. is there a way to find out what CID i had at the beginning?

3. how can i put my device back to the state before i rooted my phone, by that i mean, i want to be able to get official OTA updates. or will this involve the "how to get back s-on guide" which is a bit risky as i have read that guide a couple of times.

i hope some1 can give me some answer or hint on how to find these things out. i just need to be directed to the right direction, and ill be thankfull and happy to continue my search on my own.
[HTC Sensation] taogenix:
another question

4. what happens when i run the RUU (i have RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.2_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_208857_signed)

will this be a problem as i'm currently on hboot 1.23.0000? will it unroot my phone?
[HTC Sensation] taogenix:
nevermind, im gonna try mikes ARHD and just updated my FW with Firmware from 3.24.401.1 & 3.25.401.101 RUU --- MD5 checksum: 4774D8928FB9D364F83CDDE16BAC4553 *PG58IMG.zip

so now i have

-Revolutionary-

S-OFF

HBOOT 1.27.1100

Radio 11.21.3504.13_2

i guess ill just put this thing on ebay and leave it at that.

i will still apreciate any help or explanations to my questions thou.. =)
[HTC Sensation] xdaco:
If you flash an official ruu you will lose root. But you will remain soff. So you can install any custom ROM. Your root will depend on the rom only. as far as fast boot concern it may be locked during official ruu flashing. So will not be able to use some extended fast boot command like flashing radio from PC. But revolutionary hboot is unlocked. So no issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nospin:
Does anyone know how to get Ultraviolet movies streaming through the Movies app on a rooted device? It seems other phone models are able to use Voodoo OTA to hide root, but even when I use it the message explaining how it detects root pops up. Which must mean of course I'm a horrible hacker thief trying to steal all of Brad Pitt's money.

Anyone know why Voodoo isn't hiding my root correctly? This type of DRM is ridiculous, if I'm tech savvy enough to root my phone, I know a minimum of 10 other ways to steal this movie. I just want to stream it legally!

[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] cmajpwc:
Not really even sure where to post this, so I apologize if it's in the wrong section, but kind of a random question. My headset broke and I was looking at the Beats Tour because of the supposed tangle free cord and stuff. Do they work with Shed's GSB? Or is there any way to check if it does? I'm not gonna spend $100 on a headset if I can't answer a call on it. Lol and I don't even know if it is rom based as to whether it works or not. Like I said, random question
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] MrSpartan:
Well, I assume it might because I had the Apple headset(that could make calls); it worked. Furthermore, I see no discrepancy between Apple headset and Beats. This could provide some solace but I've never used a Beats headset on Shed's GSB. Also, figuring out things like this can be loathsome, however, you can always return the headset if it's incongruous with GSB.

Hope this helped :D
[7 Mozart General] Gater:
What do you think about the vibrations of the capacitive buttons ? I think it's pretty loud and strong in case of Mozart and I really don't understand why it's like that. My Mozart also has some bad vibration unit, so it's much louder than other Mozarts but anyway it's really anoying. If you try HD7 you will see the difference, it's so quite.

Use Androzip and backup your apps. GrooveIP? Just boot into recovery and do a complete backup of your phone before flashing and you cannot go wrong;)

Oh by the way this ROM is untested, because I do not own a vibrant. My apologies I should have posted that in the OP but it was very late when I released it and had had not much rest.

There will be a new release in another 12-14 hours time from now. I have already done some testing on my own Galaxy S for performance improvements...not sure on the wifi app.

Try changing kernels. By the way...tonight I will be releasing a kernel patcher for all kernels that you flash to maintain the scripting order that has been set in the ROM. Its ok now, though flash a new kernel and tell me if it fixes GPS?

Also the Glitch kernel made my SGS run extremely hot! Be careful

2) I have a guy on board now to help me, thanks and welcome to sUsH667, hope he doesn't mind me announcing. I am stoked to have someone to share some work with finally :) and you guys may be please to get updates a little more regularly (damn you cyanogen mod for being too awesome and making everyone love nightly fixes for alpha :P haha)

3). This is something to wet the tastebuds for you all to expect for the next release....20Mb + spares space in the system partition ;) yes you got that right.
