[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
You obviously didn't look closely enough in this thread . Read the first post thoroughly, have another look for your kernel, then follow the instructions. If you follow the instructions to the letter, you shouldn't have any problems at all & your phone will be rooted in a matter of minutes.

Once your phone is rooted, do a Nandroid backup in CW Recovery so you have a backup of your stock setup (obviously with a rooted kernel) before you go flashing any other roms/kernels. You can also do a Titanium backup (search the market) of your apps, and get Hellcat's kTool so you can make a backup of your EFS details (very important).

Once you've done that you can flash any rom/kernel combo you like. And before you ask there isn't a best rom or kernel for performance, battery or anything else. You will use your phone differently to anyone else, you will have it setup differently and your phone will not have come out of the factory exactly the same anyone else's.

So, try out some roms & kernels to find a combination that works best for you.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Still not read the thread ..

Help! Which file do I use ?

Listen closely, for I will say zis only once!

Go to Settings -> About phone -> Kernel Version. Note the string present there:

2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG1-CL349526

What matters most (KG1) in this case, is in bold. Try to find the matching file under downloads:

CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1-CWM4.zip

The XX and OXA identifiers are not that important. Usually a "KG1" kernel is a "KG1" kernel, and that is that. Sometimes (pretty rare) it happens there will be multiple different kernels with the same name in different firmwares, that are actually different. If this happens, they are usually only very minor changes and you should expect them to still be fully compatible. I include the "XX" and "OXA" identifiers so the very advanced users can deduce from which full firmware I have taken the kernel file.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novae:
Hi guys(this is my first android device so i might get my lingo wrong :P ),

Just got myself a TF101, its a B40(second-hand, was originally purchased around July here in Aus), played with it for a day or so, was trying to work out how to root it, tried the nachoroot ABD method but couldn't get it to work. Was able to push files across but it failed to create local.prop.

Decided i'd root it via nvflash when i got back and copied come TV shows onto the microSD via its windows MTP driver. Went away camping for a couple of days and so rigged a direct charge cable from my a cig' socket supplied from my second battery(so doesn't have issues of fluctuations while the car is starting or anything). Essentially just supplying +~12V to USB pin 1 and - to USB pin 4, was fused with a 5A fuse as i couldn't find something smaller that would fit. This worked well.

Got back today and the first thing i did was plug it into my PC, now i'm getting "USB device not recognised" - "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)".

I've tried this in 1 desktop and 2 laptops testing all USB ports both the laptops had fresh driver installs, the desktop have had bits and pieces installed but i tried to remove them and start a-fresh. Charging via the wall adapter works fine directly to the tablet or with the dock.

I've done both a cold reboot and a data wipe, neither of which had any effect. The tablet is current running the latest stock firmware(WW 8.6.5.21).

Idea's? Could it be the cable? Do we have a pin out for the proprietary end?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
I have the EXACT same problem as you, i have a B60 tf101, was working fine this morning tried to root it via adb, 10 minutes lateri was getting code 43 on windows, tried everthing including factory data reset, software update, ive tried plugging it into 5 desktops, all on windows 7, no luck. Im thinking its a hardware error, should i RMA or is there a fix? Thanks

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novae:
I'm really not sure, i have a feeling that ICS won't help either. Have you tried another cable?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
Nope I haven't tried another cable yet, I've got one on order though. Let's narrow our problem down, are you using a genuine asus cable? I'm not and I think it may be my aftermarket cable...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novae:
I'm using a geniune cable. Does your TF still charge via the cable when plugged into the wall pack? Mine does.

Now that i am able to root my device with Razerclaw because i dropped down to 8.6.6.19 i was thinking i might give that a shot and install CWM, then flash a custom ROM to see if that helped.

My only concern was being unable to unroot/re-stock it for RMA if that ends up being what's required. I found this guide: http://theunlockr.com/2011/11/28/how-to-unroot-and-remove-cwm-recovery-on-asus-transformer/

Can anyone confirm that those instructions will work for a B40 @ 8.6.6.19 or possibly custom ROM, to return to 8.6.5.21?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
Couldn't we just re upgrade to a stock rom?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novae:
i think the problem is that the asus recovery application see`s 8.6.6.x as higher versioned than 8.6.5.x so it wont flash in the opposite direction.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
hmm, do you think it'll help?..
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
do you have a dock?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novae:
Yes. The moving between versions i dont think will help with our USB issue as i think it almost has to be hardware in some way, either the cable or something internal.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
Does your transformer work fine on the dock? Try docking the transformer then connecting it to USB through the dock.

I've requested an RMA, UPS is going to pick it up tomorrow and send it off to the Czech republic service centre, I'll let you know how it goes.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Novae:
Nope, i've tried from both the dock and directly to the transformer both result in the same thing "unknown usb device" PID_0000&VID_0000.

And timmydeans downloads all fail at 230 MB

But without rooting my Acer I doubt I'll be able to reproduce the fault
[Acer Iconia A500] spexwood:
I have no idea what happened, but after having this issue for several months, the problem suddenly corrected itself a few days ago.

All I did was add the email widget to my homescreen, which prompted me to set up my email account info again (for some reason). After that, voila! Notifications again!

Maybe I just had to clear cache and data, which I probably should've tried before posting here... I forgot to try that first though. Sorry.

Is there any way around this limit? Custom kernel etc.

It's really annoying that my phone discharges, albeit slowly, when using satnav and full screen brightness.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
No, there is not. However, if you are using GPS in your car and your charger is detected as MISC or USB, you could increase that to 650mA.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
Mine is detected as a charger, not MISC or USB, so I get the full 650mA but I need more current, probably 800mA would do the trick.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
I wonder if fitting the new Samsung extended battery would increase the charging current.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
It would fry the phone, the battery or both.

No, it would increase battery life due to higher capacity, but not the charging current.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
You could resolder a resistor on the phones motherboard, but there is no software way to get around the limit.

Try shiyah kernel and voltage control
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Just to clarify so others don't keep spreading it, trying shiyah (sic) kernel with voltage control will not change anything, you are limited to 650mA.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
I looked at that but, apparently, although it shows a 950mA option, the phone still won't draw over 650mA.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
So it's hardware limited, how stupid :(.

My main use for a smartphone is satnav and one that goes flat after 500 miles is about as much use as a chocolate tea pot. I suppose my only option is to turn down the brightness and remember to go back to HTC for my next phone.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Assuming your car charger is actually supplying 650mA and the phone is still losing charge, you're not entirely without options. For example, you could use a lower brightness (which you already acknowledge), limit the CPU frequency/disable one core or have your sat nav application turn off the screen between instructions.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
Thanks, I'll investigate the CPU options, I couldn't live with the screen turning off though.

For the future, I wonder if ICS's better handling of the two cores will reduce consumption.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
You can turn mystic up to 650 from 450 which might help with the discharging while using satnav issue.

You would need a custom kernel and voltage control.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
What is mystic?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
I presume he meant MISC, which you already clarified shouldn't matter (but wouldn't harm to try, if you're already using a kernel which supports changing these values).

As an additional, newer versions of Siyah kernel allow you to see the charge current.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
I just downloaded a battery widget app and my car charger (2amp) is definitely recognised as 'AC' which I assume should be 650mA.

I'm using Android 2.3.6, Gingerbread XILA2, Rooted. Would Siyah kernel be worth a try?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Fast charging the battery shortens its life anyway. Slow charges are better, IMO.

I don't mind waiting a few extra minutes or buying an additional battery and cycling them, or charging them externally
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
But I need sufficient current to cover my satnav drain plus a bit to charge the battery when I'm driving. I don't mind replacing the battery every six months but pulling off the road to change it is a non starter.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
It's not likely to help your issue, at least not without playing with a few already mentioned things (like limiting CPU frequency or disabling one core).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
But I'd need it to support the single core app.

I've set CPU to 1,000 using juice defender to see if that improves things. It doesn't seem noticeably slower.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Ah my bad, I meant misc and missed that note. Sorry for the noise.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gevans35:
Now running Siyah kernel with 2nd core installed and set to 1 core.

It seems daft to pay for a dual core phone and have to disable one of them because Samsung have set the current limit too low for two core use though.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nukedukem:
I think that will get you started. I'm not an expert, but when I'm tinkering with kernels I pull the proc config strait from the device after flashing the kernel I want to modify. That way I know that the default config is correct. For example, if I wanted to modify the kernel running on an EOS nightly, after cloning the repo I would flash the EOS nightly ROM containing the kernel I want to modify. Then run the following commands to pull the kernel config from the kernel running on my device:

adb pull /proc/config.gz .
gunzip config.gz
mv config .config

The .config then goes in the root of the kernel source directory. That may do exactly the same thing as the "make defconfig" you mentioned but I just prefer to trust the defaults from the ROM and not the repo.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CyberPunk7t9:
So. I was in a hookah bar in Texas. I'm almost sure I put my GNEX in my pocket right before I left! Must have slipped while I thought I was sliding it in my jacket's pocket!

This is not a thread to complain or for you to feel sorry for me. My previous phone was a Motorola Atrix 4G, which can be GPS-tracked and remotely-wiped through the MotoBlur website. I must have been too excited with the GNEX that I did not find the time to check if I had the same options in case of emergencies. It seems Google Nexus phones does not have a similar feature by default. I went back home and tried tracking the NEX but no go. I did not have any apps for this functionality pre-installed. **pulls hair**. There's an app called "Plan B" which can be installed remotely using your account in the Android market website to enable GPS locating. Sadly, It did not work for me. Maybe it's not updated to support ICS yet.

Anyway, I'm just saying make sure to install a reliable GPS tracking app and test it in case you misplace your GNEX phones. (maybe even recommend us one?)

I used my brother's iPhone 4S later that night and I almost laughed despite how sad I was for my loss. The iphone feels like a little toy after getting used to the GNEX. I felt the same when I went back to my Atrix too, which has an even larger screen than the iphone 4s. I concluded, there's no going back.. I ordered another GNEX today!

Good luck.
