Dear French users,

I had a REAL BIG problem with my operator's messaging services : updated my baseband to 824, and no voice earing at all since 3days, was thinking that it was related to the kernel updates (last of my changes) but, no, it seems that some of french operators doesn't support to baseband 824 calls for their online services : NOT related to temasek Kang ROMs, and not related to Vadonka's kernels...

Hope this will help a bit for those who experience the same kind of problems ;)

was in 725 => updated to 824 (problems occured) => went back to 218

For further information, I was @ SFR and went to FREE Mobile. If you experience some problems related to messaging services, call options & so on...

I think it is related to O2X, none of my contacts had that kind of problems with other phones.

My 2 cents...
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Are you in Paris? I'm currently with bouygues telecom but I want to change to free too!

Forfait free sounds pretty nice, is that what you went for? I heard reception wasn't as good with free as with other operators. What do you think about it?

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus 2x] plakers:
Not @ Paris but Lyon, and yes Free is a great opportunity! ;)

(not problems at all exept for the APN configuration the first time)

The baseband 824 didn't work for me, but I'm quite sure that it cause problems with other operators too, as they use voice services on their network, it COULD occur some surprises... the 218 is OK
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Thanks!

Just one more question, why did you change from 725 in the first place?
[LG Optimus 2x] plakers:
I had some battery issues with 725, so tried another one to solve them... ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Just found out that Bouygues Telecom has the same plan, so I don't need to change :)

I may be experimenting with a new ROM this weekend, if I have trouble with BB I'll share my experience on this thread.
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
I use 725 baseband from V20M .kdz and I haven't any problem! (Bouygues Telecom)

[LG Optimus 2x] rototrol:
IMHO su660 BBs are actually not fully compatible with our devices or, better yet, they use functions not supported by non korean operators. I live in Italy and I used 824 BB too, but I couldn't get audio during calls to some toll-free numbers (including my career and bank numbers).

My career is WIND Italy but I know for sure that others had the same problem using Vodafone Italy and even TIM using su660 BBs.

And all this is a shame... 824 BB is probably the best in in-call audio quality and connectivity!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] imthebest:
Please check the following video from 0:38 to 0:48 to have a better understanding of what I'm asking for: youtube[dot]com/watch?v=OOcOWfg3A8I

As you can see, zooming in the Galaxy Ace doesn't adjust the text to fit the screen compared with the HTC Wildfire. I believe that the way in how the HTC Wildfire zooms works is way better than the Galaxy Ace because you can increase the text size to fit your needs and continue reading however in the Galaxy Ace it is impossible to read because you will have horizontal scrolling.

Is this the way in how the zooming of the Galaxy Ace works? Any chance to make it to work just like the HTC Wildfire?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] pwgerhardt:
The only thing I can think of is to use a third party browser like Opera or Dolphin. I couldn't find any auto-fit settings or anything so I'm not sure. But see if you like a third party browser and that should work for you!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] imthebest:
Thanks for your input pwgerhardt.

Could any Galaxy Ace user please confirm that using a 3rd party browser like Opera or Dolphin is going to achieve what I'm looking for?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ace_viknesh:
Yup. Dolphin browser is a better alternative. Works for me.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Bakuron:
Opera mini is unbelievably quick in 2G browsing. Just try it.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] PJ147:
Press menu key in the browser > more > Settings and the option is there....
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] doubleomelette:
many third party browsers support text reflow (dolphin's my favourite, opera, boat browser etc)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] iandol:
Both Opera and Opera mini have very good reflow (text zoom) support. In fact Opera invented dynamic reflow years ago and have very good algorithms to optimise page layout on small screens.

And if you use a cyanogenmod 7.2 build, go to cyanogenmod prefs > interface > reflow after pinch in to enable in in the stock browser (haven't tested it as opera is much quicker anyway).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
I'm using the regular opera browser as I type. On edge and its still fast as hell. I always try out every browser that comes out and I always end up returning to Opera. Not the mini version though, the regular one :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] iandol:
Yes, opera mobile is fast and is more compatible with regular sites, I use both; opera mobile for wifi and fast 3G, and opera mini if my connection is really poor. opera mobile also contains opera turbo which reencodes images and resources and can shave as much as 60% off a page load. And again the reflow support is top notch...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Bakuron:
Opera mini's data shaving's pretty good too, it's turned 1.5gb into 477mb on my phone so far. Also I am in a no 3G area, with a PAYG data package, so Opera Mini is like Mana from Heaven! Occasionally it ***** up page format, but default browser is generally pretty good with its display. Sounds like I should get Opera Mobile as well as mini for the pages that don't display correctly. Then delete default browser forever...
[HTC Desire S] Uppy:
Got bored so I did this using all free apps from the market/xda all free, no warez. ad-away used to remove adverts. I diem it mostly to show people who want their desire s to run wp7 (which will never happen) that there is an alternative to give them pretty much the same experience.

Have a look:

sorry for the huge pictures, in a rush and cant be bothered to resize.

Apps used: Launcher 7, smart keyboard with wp7 skin, statusbar+, wp7 notifications, photo safari, wp7mail, wp7 phone, wp7zplayer, metro messenger beta, wp7lock lite, wp7contacts lite. What do you guys think?
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Pretty nice :) I used a Lumia 800 the other day, and i gotta say, it was smooth. Would love to have WP7 on my Desire S, but as you said, sadly it's impossible. Anyways, i'll try the apps tomorrow.
[HTC Desire S] Uppy:
It runs really well although the notifications are a little annoying. I made the pictures tile myself. That is, I got it from a screenshot and Photoshopped the word "pictures" from the bottom left.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tann3r12:
Hi i bought a new samsung galaxy s2 the other day and immediately checked for updates ota. it said an update was available, so i downloaded it and clicked install. the phone rebooted and began updating but once it got to 14 percent it stopped, rebooted then said update was unsuccessful. So i connected to kies and it told me my phone wasnt compatible for updates via kies. any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMrB:
Kies is useless, if you really want to update you can use odin yourself... up to you and voids warranty

Try uninstalling and reinstalling but too be honest, forget kies...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tann3r12:
hmm. ok. any ideas on why the ota update stops at 14 percent? im on stock 2.3.4 and not rooted.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMrB:
yes, because kies is rubbish....

settings - about phone - update... Over The Air update is probably not available lol ...

With odin you can flash stock updates... really simple, but get used to the phone and if you want to take the leap, its not difficult but do plenty of reading, it can a bit daunting initially...

Is there anything wrong with your phone or just hungry for the latest version?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
OTA is not in use/working for many yet but is supposed to be working when ICS is released .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You said you're in the US? Then there isn't a stock ROM for the i9100 for your region. I'm in the US too. You should be able to use any from Intratech's official firmware thread just fine. I flashed from XWKE7 for the UK (2.3.3), that came with the phone, to XXKI3 for Poland (2.3.5). Haven't found a need to upgrade beyond that yet, but there are newer versions available.

Hey guys,

I'm on the lookout for a good kernel.

Which kernel you you say is the best for my needs?

Need:

Over-/Underclockable

Over-/Undervolt

GPU renedring

GPU Over-/Underclock

small and compact

Dualboot would be nice aswell, as I am trying to stay stock, but yet I am making a custom ROM... (Both with root)

If you could help me, I would be greatful...

And, maybe you could also give me a few tips, on where to code Android on a Windows Machine, Linux isn't really my cup of tea, you see...

But, it really needs to be flashable via Odin(because the Siyah recovery isn't all that good, but I don't want to downgrade, just get a complete new kernel)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suarez7:
Actually the Siyah recovery is the same one that Hyperdroid stock kernel uses as well and i have not had any complaints with it so far. And another thing. No point me telling you what kernel to go because what might work for me might not work for you.

Search

Read

Try and

Enjoy

Those are the only way you can get to learn and find out the awesomeness of Android. By playing about and finding out stuff on your own. You seem to know what you are doing and talking about so instead of opening threads take the time to actually read and ask the appropriate questions in the corresponding threads..

That is the only way i got to learn and still learning.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beatsleigher:
To be really honest, I'm not an Android fan at all... I'm just using it... And I'm waiting for WP7 to come to the GS II, I've tried nearly every kernel, don't like any of them, really... I'm just asking for help, and it just needs to have the criteria listed in my thread... But still thx
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suarez7:
I think you bought the wrong phone if you are waiting for WP7 to come to the galaxy s2 as it is a totally different operating system and no way it can be ported over. So you might as well sell your phone now and go and buy a Nokia Lumnia if you do not like android and want WP7.

So what you just mentioned above the only kernel that i would recommend is Siyah. But you have to give it at least a few days or a week to actually get the full benefit of a kernel not a day or two. But anyway down to you i just thought i give you my opinion. Best of luck anyway
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
So far in the last hour you've made a thread claiming to stop the custom binary counter increasing, a thread claiming you can root your phone by typing "adb root", and now this.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ordonius:
Hello All,

I rooted for the first time my Note 2 weeks ago, just with the Basic CMW and proper root to my kernel. It worked fine, but I wanted more, so I decided to try RR by Eybee.

Downloaded the RR v20, passed it to my SD Card.

I wiped the phone through CMW.

Flashed the .zip file.

I'm now stuck on the initial loading screen of Rocket Rom, it just keeps restarting.

I know I ****ed up someway, and would really appreciate someone's help...

Ty
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toxicpaulution:
I hope you did a nandroid back up in recovery before you flashed? Because if you didn't you are indeed up creek without a paddle. It is always recommended to do a backup before you flash anything through recovery. If you didnt then go on you're computer download another rom to you're ad card go into recovery and flash it or get the original ruu rom and flash that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ordonius:
No I have not.. I did full sys+data recovery through Titanium backup. I can't access CMW , to be honest I only did it through the phone itself... I can only access the Download Mode and tried to flash back the ROM I used to root the phone, which was useless.

Am I missing some really obvious way to access CMW without being able to initialize the phone?

...

Edited:

Found it:

Going to wipe, resintall root that worked and go from there ty.

Edited:

Reinstalled Rocket Rom through CMW (Up Vol+Power Button+Menu)

Wiped.

Reinstalled.

I may be a noob but what exactly is the point of this. I keep both update.zip's on my sd card(893,901). I just tried this. Im on stock 5.5.886 rooted. booted in stock recovery and applied both updates. Now im on .901 and still rooted. I didnt get the cdt.bin error or anything. What is BIONICPATHSAVER supposed to do?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] netslum:
From my understanding, its an extra string of security that keeps root open. I did the same thing and it worked. But my first attempt wasnt soo lucky. I ended up bricking my bionic. No worries though, i used my motorola limited warranty. Now i just have my verizon warranty left
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MarcMaiden:
The point of this tool is to save your ass.

it can be and should be used to go from a pre 901 rom to a 901 rom as well as helping you unbrick your phone.

I needed it to go from liberty 2.0 to eclipse 2.1
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Darca:
Primarily its for people who got off the update path via cheesecake updates. It returns you to the upgrade path so that you can once again receive the OTA updates. Atleast thats my understand of it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] greeneink:
you will need it if you ever want to go back down to 5.5.893.

It was created for people that loaded 5.7.893 or 5.5.894 that were off the update path. If they release ICS for 5.5.893 and not for 5.5.901 at the same time, you may want to go back to get ICS.

A few month's ago I flashed an official android 2.3.6 rom onto my phone. I'm not a developer but had no problems flashing the new rom onto my phone with a tutorial. However, I want to flash back the branded firmware (BELL-PDA: UGKG2 Phone: UGKG2 CSC: BMCKG2) which I have already downloaded. When I read intratech's post on how to flash, the file extensions for the branded rom files do not end in .tar or .md5. The files I have through extraction are:

cache.img

factoryfys.img

modem.bin

zimage

Hence, I am unable to flash through Odin due to these file extensions. What exactly do I need to do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Instructions say do not unzip the single downloaded file past the tar file to the internal components .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knocturnal88:
In that case it's a .exe file.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knocturnal88:
In that case it's a .exe file.

Edit: Ok, what I was doing was extracting the file by right clicking. Now I indeed have a .tar file, which I have done the same with for the Kernal file I also downloaded from intratech's list. However, don't I need 3 files to complete the flash with Odin?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Where is it from this file their should be instructions .

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113928

first page from the mans instructions .

27/05/2011

1. I have changed the format with which I compress the archives. They are now .7z self-extracting files that have .exe at the end. This is because this compresses the files more and so makes for faster upload and downloading and also makes it easier for you to extract the package. Just double click and it will extract the .tar package for you without the need to use any program to unpack.

The instructions do not mention three files .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danieldmm:
Its one file with all files inside....

Just flash the .tar in pda and everithing will OK...

cache.img - factoryfys.img---->Its your bell PDA UGKG2

I got my Infuse couple of months back when I was in US. My Infuse runs on CyanogenMod 7, I have unlocked it using the method described here on XDA-Developers, I got the Unlock code from the text file (using the Hex-editor), When I was in US I unlocked it and used a T-Mobile sim. It worked perfect. But When I came back to India I tried to use my local carrier, but I get a Signal and carrier name but the Signal is blacked out (with a small cross on the signal symbol.), I do not understand the problem and have no Clue how to use my beloved infuse in India.

Any suggestions are welcome.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
I have had this problem too with ei22 for some reason it sucks

I would run a 3g turbocharger script and see if that improves it any I'll provide the script and instructions let me find my previous post about this ;)

3G Turbocharger RC 3 : http://db.tt/sHUsSnUr

Download this and run it in script manager found on the market.

1. Open script manager and find the rc3.txt

2. A screen will pop up and make sure that the su icon is green or checked this means your running as root. Hit run

3. The command line will go through its script and at the end it will give you 6 options to choose from to boost speed.

4. There is not best option you need to play with them. So prior to installation you should run a speedtest.net to see what your current stats are.

5. Select whichever option I use epieremental 1, and reboot.

6. Run a test and see if its better ;)

7. Test all of them and see which has the best result for you.

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

If none of this helps then I would take it into sprint and ask them to test the antenna to see if its faulty
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] auggie43:
Thanks I did that earlier as I read into a post in the Q& A thread where you had given someone that same advice. It might not be my antenna because I went to Lunch and I had better signal elsewhere other than work. I've never had that problem before with my service at work. Also when I tilt my epic counterclockwise I lose signal. So maybe it its my antenna.
