[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
This is why touch CWM is the absolute last item on my priority list - it will make CWM harder and more dangerous to use, not easier. The volume keys work fine. Touch will result in too many accidental misclicks on dangerous options.

Touch recovery makes sense on devices that don't have enough physical buttons to easily navigate through CWM like the Kindle Fire. It makes no sense on devices that have more than enough physical keys.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] K Rich:
i just flashed it right now. seems to be working fine, but i can see the worry in it being a little sketchy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Cant get it to show on Entropy or Siyah :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jjesusfreak01:
We need a hybrid option. Touch to navigate to files, with hardbuttons required to confirm flashing. Using the volume buttons to navigate to nested files gets old when i'm flashing more than a few files at once.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Those of you who have the touchscreen version, how did you get it to install? I cleared cahce and dalvik on Siyah and Entropy and then intalled the CWM flashable package from ROM Manager website. Rebooted recovery and still nothing. Just the same old recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] K Rich:
I'm not running it anymore (due to switching) to Siyah. I had to use the stock CM7 kernel for it to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] anikiup:
+1 on that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] itchy5:
+1 all touch makes it easy to mess up a flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
I honestly don't see how people could mess up there phone using touch recovery. You would first have to select the wrong directory then you have to confirm what you selected is what you want... unless your not paying attention to what your doing, how on earth can you go through with flashing something on accident?!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:
The latest Android Revolution on Inspire 4G has a touch recovery and I can see it. For example, you want to wipe dalvik and accidentally hit full wipe in a hurry and confirm it. There is not enough difference between the warning screens. I think that's what entropy was getting at. But at the same time that scenario is easily possibly with buttons.

Recovery is supposed to recovery your phone.

To me it's a safety feature that happens to be a good way of modifying/updating your phone. Why compromise it's main function for something flashy? And why fix something that isn't broken. I'm happy with the current CWM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Recovery shouldn't be touch enabled . Period. Its a great feature, but when I'm in recovery I'm not looking for cool eye candy I'm looking at usability .just my two cents.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Hey I'm not saying its better or I prefer it.. it will just make flashing a faster process. And also you still have to NOT be paying attention to flash something wrong and confirm it. If you accidently hit something in a hurry AND THEN CONFIRM IT.. it's not the recoveries fault you know that right? ;)

Who said it wasn't useable?.. and you guys really think touch recovery is "eye candy" or "flashy" ... its just damn recovery with touch enabled.. that's all. It doesn't light up and play music.. it does what its supposed to do. (As far as I know :p)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thephoneguyusa:
I think anyone who is in a hurry and blows through the wipe and flash process needs to brick once. That is a process that needs to be done with care and understanding. This is were I hate how mainstream flashing roms, etc has become. Not to say in have never made a mistake but I have bricked a few times and learned that if you are careful you should have no problems. A touch recovery is a great feature! I always feel like I am going to wear out my buttons with all my flashing :D. This is just my 2 cents on this topic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Absolutely.. I've been flashing my phones for almost 2 years now and I STILL take my time in recovery and make sure I select the right thing..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] K Rich:
agreed....now if only I knew how to get the touch recovery to stay....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:
I agree I have missed the right menu before but I read and confirm. Just gotta be careful. I wouldn't go as far as say they need to brick once but does make for a good lesson. I've bricked a PSP I was modding but that had a ton of other factors (very touchy device, SONY seems to hate mods), a bricked $600 might give a kid a heart attack.

Maybe allowing to be an option in a kernel, instead of having to have it. Leave no other potential person to blame. Not that there ever is, more for mental reasons. So if a noob bricks or wipes his phone, he can't ***** and say "well if they left the old CWM" cuz he'd be the one who added it. Idk I'm rambling and probably making no sense.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
I read somewhere that users are having a hard time keeping it. I haven't tried it yet..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] K Rich:
Yah, every time I flash it, then reboot I get the regular CWM. The touch is sweet though. It's fast and easy :D

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] uflibra:
I'm wondering if it is possible to Dual Boot/Multi Boot Nook Tablet?

e.g. Android + Windows (of course the one for Tablets) OR Linux OR even iOS OR any other?

Anyone interested?

I can be part of this development, though i'm newbie in android world and mostly i'm playing with MatLab, C, C++, Jave (very less) etc. But i think i still can be useful somehow and i am also ready to use my NT for development/testing purpose (provided that i get some solution of backup/restore with apps installed)

thanks

I would consider looking up this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21323255

Adam provides a little bit of insight about dual booting from sdcard and more!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Pete1612:
windows 8 doesn't work on the Nook. Only the devices which come out with windows 8 can actually run windows 8. ios also doesn't work because there's no source code out there. Linux is under development, I think it's Adam Outler who does that.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] uflibra:
yes, for windows/ios, may not possible but i think, linux is possible. i have been going through the threads. actually due to some hardware issues, like processor etc. NT can't be generalized. also, even with rooting, we are still far behind in using its true capabilities.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Pete1612:
CM9 is on it's way. Currently sound doesn't work, the kernel paniks sometimes and some minor bugs are the problems for the devs.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] uflibra:
well, looking forward for CM9. i hope it will give more freedom than existing root...

[Motorola Droid Bionic] robinzon:
Hey all,

I have been following the threads for a bit, and have not seen a decent solution for going back to stock from 5.7.893 so that you can apply VZW update... there are couple of threads floating around about just applying system.img, grfs.img and preinstall.img and then boot, root and DD the .886 boot.img and then the 5.5.893 will succeed.

However, being on a mac i cannot use FASTBOOT to apply presintall.img because of its size (ie you need a motorola specific fastboot-OSX executable which is not available on OSX).... Just wanted to see if there was any progress made? or are there any alternatives.....

Also I certainly don't want to use fastboot -w (and its not really neccessary), just wondering if any one made progress..

thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SteroidalFish2:
For some reason, every time I install a new kernel, then attempt to reboot, it bootloops. I'm using AOKP build 20, and I've tried both imoseyon's and franco's, to no avail. I have to restore my boot.img to get it to boot up. Anybody else have this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wayneb02:
have u wiped cache and davlik cache before installing the kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SteroidalFish2:
Yes. I even factory reset, then tried, and still nothing. I also tried downloading the kernel again, which didn't work, either.

https://github.com/richardtrip/GT-P6200-kernel

i found this on google.. is the owner here?

where can i find the built kernel?

looks like he's using the overclocking stuff from garyd9 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
i expect he would release something here. I hope. man this would be sweet. Richard if you're reading this how about custom bootanimation.zip's at some point and init.d support. Thanks!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Entropy512:
I think he's working with acolwill on testing and releasing. He's apparently a little more aggressive than garyd9 about blind development (I don't blame gary for this - blind dev is a high-risk process, I've been avoiding it even though the I777/I9100 differences are less than your P6200/P6210 differences.). Sometimes the problem is finding a tester whose technical skills you can trust. e.g. someone you KNOW can fix their device if it goes wrong without handholding.

Sometimes kernels show up on github and are never released as binaries - such as arighi's work.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
Wow... that's really flattering to see some of my commits copied to another kernel! That made my day. :) I do wish he'd have taken the time to drop a message to me... just a "fyi" type thing, but that's not a big deal.

I've done recovery blind for other devices, but I can screw up all kinds of things and recovery will still work.

However, normal boot kernels are an entirely different can of worms, and there are a LOT of things that might break on these tablets. In addition, I don't have any of the 3g models, so I would have no possible way to diagnose if things went wrong with the modem. Others might be willing to tinker there. I'm not.

Take care

Gary
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Entropy512:
Yeah, I recommended that one guy from VillainROM IRC chat with you about P6200 support (he's competent enough to unfuck his device if something goes wrong without handholding), but I guess somehow he got hooked up with richardtrip.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] gingerboy92:
maybe its not working yet.. that's why its not in the forum :D anyway.. i asked a friend to help to compile it(since idk how to.. :P).. will try it when he's done..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
IRC with me? I haven't used IRC since... sometime in the early 90's, I think ... Perhaps in PM?

If there was someone with a p6200 that wanted to take on kernel development (and was technically able), I'd be happy to give them a hand. Chances are good that they'd be able to get the samsung code, manually bring over my changes to the defconfig and create their own initramfs - and it'd just work. Honestly, the hardest parts to get started are the defconfig and ramdisk. The rest of the kernel changes are really optional to start with.

Of course, "technically able" implies that they'd be doing 99% of the work, and I'd just have to nudge them in the proper direction (as has been done with me.)

Gary
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Entropy512:

[G2 and Desire Z General] adeswas:
Hello and thanks for your time.

My DZ is driving me nuts. Phone's rooted, s-off, radio's changed--basically fully configurable. I've been experimenting with several roms and have yet to find one that "fits". Virtuous Unity--lags, Virtuous Affinity--lags (when I say lag I mean 20+ seconds for the notification bar to slide...), CoreDroid (latest) lags to the point of not being useable, G-lite--no lag but no features such as a decent calendar widget. All the ROMs I've installed have swap enabled and disabled--not a helluva lot of difference.

I'm looking for a sense ROM (is that wrong?? oh well) preferably gingerbread, that runs well with basic eye candy. Now please don't misunderstand, all the ROMs I've mentioned are works of art and kudos to all that develop them, I'm not trashing anyone's efforts here. Just looking for some people that have had good ROM experiences...or can offer some insight as to what I may have screwed up in my phone to cause this poor operation...

Thanks to all

Virtuous sense 2. It's what the stock Rom should've been. Smooth, fast and sense.
[G2 and Desire Z General] coldsun15:
I use RCMix4.0 Energized Blue Edition and works beautifully...smooth and fast... its GB 2.3.5 and sense 3.5... u should try it!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Athrun88:
Go back to G-Lite and ditch LauncherPRO for GoLauncherEX and download their GoCalendar app. Also, if you want FB sync with contacts while on that setup, download Contacts by Contactapps and enable FB contact syncing. Smoothness of AOSP with the versatility and functionality of Sense in one package.

I'm on Affinity at the moment and the lag isn't really unbearable. Sure some functions take afew seconds longer, but having the native integration as well as Sense 3.5 justifies the slight cost in performance. Overclocking to 1.5GHz also helps alittle with the lag.
[G2 and Desire Z General] haxn2:
are you sure you want sense?

for me all sense-roms i tried i got lags, too.

if you dont not "need" sense. check this rom: ILWT

it is awesome!
[G2 and Desire Z General] mazdarati2:
yes RCMIX3D 4.0 is the best ROM i think

You can try Android Revolution hd 7.0, is very fast and smooth Sense 3.5 ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] crazyC:
Just my two-pence worth - when you tried affinity did you enable swap?

Affinity is now my daily driver - with swap but without supercharging - supercharging have me very bad results - has been pretty rock solid actually, if not rocket fast.

is it straight up 60 plus tax or are there any other hidden fess...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nexicon:
I'm glad you asked! You're in the right place! I've been with Simple for almost two years. Absolutely wonderful Service. The speeds are really good for 3g and 4g. I used to be on the 3g plan and switched to 4g to check it out. It's really good but when I had the S2 on T Mobile it just seemed a little quicker. Probably because Simple hasn't leased the higher or faster speed towers? Nonetheless i've converted many of my friends and family to it and never experienced a drop call. I've been all the way to Ohio and new York city with it and works amazing. There are no taxes with the program. You can even pay online and they will never charge you any "Service fee" or whatever nonsense. You'll love it. Trust me. No need to let your phone unlocked either. Let me know if you have any other questions! Sorry if I sound a little excited, I'm just glad someone has seen the proverbial light and is thinking of switching.

Yes you can port a number to simple mobile. However, they have the worst customer service ever. I used to have 2 phones with simple mobile and they charged to $40 to recharge my account but the pin number that was sent to me via email was invalid for both of the accounts and they won't believe me. They could check that I have used ZERO msgs, minutes, data in 20 days because my phone doesn't work but they failed to help me out. They would hang up on my when I would ask for a supervisor and when I finally got hold of supervisor, she emailed me another pin numbers for both of the lines and they didn't work AGAIN. I ended up paying more to simple mobile then I saved.
