[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pussycrusher:
used sky ice cream sandwich with da_g kernel for rogers

but i was having alot of crashes and my phone would just shutoff, but become unresponsive, iw ould have to battery pull and reboot... i think it also drained the battery too, not sure what this issue was called

didnt bother troubleshooting and i wans't sure if it was DA_G's kernel or the rom itself

now i'm using CyanoTouchwiz Rocket and no crashes so far, only problem is that i can't select if i want LTE or 3G.... which is very troublesome for me because i live on the edge of LTE coverage lol

Incorrect ROM flash instructions floating out there

Just an FYI for the folks here. I followed the instructions for flashing my phone to sky ice cream to the letter from this site: ___traemcneely.com/2011/12/27/install-custom-rom-at-ciq-removed-short-review-instructions/___

and the instructions are incorrect. and there will be issues. Example, phone would ring but no alert pop up and I could not answer the phone. The notification bar was gone...and just some other weirdness.

After researching here I discovered that I had to install the 6.75 stock, let the phone boot completely up then go back into recover and install the 7.4 update.

all the weirdness is gone....not that you all have control of external sites. But a google search on installing a new ROM brought up this site first.

At any rate, I am very happy with sky ice cream now. Phone is working great.

Thanks for all the folks effort here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
if u value battery life and stability above all else, use the tpc rom. for visuals use sky ice, and for "quickness," which is really just a decrease in the transition times, use quickwiz
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Jerres:
Hi all,

I recently bought a Huawei X5 U8800.

I bought it from someone on the internet, the previous owner installed MIUI on the device.

Now I found out that internal and external SD cannot be used at the same time.

I don't really like it that I have to enable one of them via X5 settings, because it requires a reboot to apply the changes. I think it's a pitty, because I really liked the smoothness of MIUI.

I was wondering if there is a custom ROM for this phone at allows me to use both SD's at the same time. Is there any (custom) ROM you guys can recommend me that fits my requirements?

Regards
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tcm9669:
I would look into stock rom, or check out cm7 (not sure if it supports this), Oxygen for sure doesn't.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] spatjoe:
It works with CM7.

Am using it now.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Jerres:
Thanks for the replies.

Now have to decide if I should go for the stock ROM or CM7.

CM7 can be recommended despite the fact not everything is working properly?

Hello Everyone,

I have been looking up rooting my HTV EVO 4g and have realized I have Hboot 2.18

I have been searching and found the way to downgrade and root to get s-off but my question is that at this moment I was just wanting to do it to run GameCIH 2 to mess with a few games I have(have a lot of time on phone) but says i need root access. I understand HTVdev.com has the way to unlock the bootloader but it keeps s-on must i go through the multiple tutorials to achieve s-off to run this program? also if i do go through doing all this is there a way to bring it back to stock in case something happens to the phone i dont want to shell out a few hundred bucks for a new one.(i do understand there is always a chance at bricking it) anyway thanks again for any incite.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
If your not planning on flashing roms you just want root might aswell use the HTCdev to unlock the bootloader and just get root
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Farsinchia:
im not planning on flashing roms just would like to you GameCIH 2 atm. so if i just you the HTVdev.com unlock do i have to go about getting my phone to s-off and then proceed with any root way?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
Your only going to want s-off if you plan on flashing roms. Let me get on my pc real quick so i can find you a guide
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Farsinchia:
thank you very much for you help

also do you know if this will void my warranty as i would like to not HAVE to buy a new one if something happens to this one

thanks again
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1473373&highlight=how+to+root+hboot+2+18 your going to want to follow steps 1-27 and if you follow correctly you will have root access. The other steps are if your planning on getting s-off so just ignore everything after step 27
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Farsinchia:
cool thanks again
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
Just to clarify - with an unlocked bootloader and S-ON, you can still flash ROMs. Especially if you're already out of warranty, all you need to do is the HTCDev unlock process.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfullmetal17:
So S-ON just means you can't use PC36IMG.zip method for flashing recoveries, radios, etc., but fastboot, correct?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
with s-on unlocked you cant flash radios and and you cant write to certain partitions on the phone
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
You can use the PC36IMG.zip method to flash a recovery, but the file has to be prepared specifically for it to work. As far as the other stuff goes, please see the post above this one ;).

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tcollins412:
When i try to internally boot cm7 from cwm, it keeps saying "Installation aborted." I have tried a whole bunch of different things (clearing all the caches, fixing permissions, re-installing it) but it still wont work. Does anybody know whats going wrong?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Data Injures:
Don't install it. Unzip the files and put them into the clockworkmod folder on your sd card. Then restore them as if you had backed them up yourself, and wipe data. You should be good.

On second thought, don't install it at all, cause there are problems with it that can brick your Nook. It's recoverable, but is it worth the risk?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blu33:
So yesterday after I got home drunk I showered and I got out. When I grabbed my phone to get out of bathroom it slipped out of my hand and fell in the pool of water. My phone was completely submerged in the water. So I instantly dropped everything rescuing my phone and it was dripping wet =-O... and you know what happened to it? NOTHING! I was sure my phone was history but nothing happend how is this possible???

I want to know if something like this has ever happened to someone. Have you ever broke your phone in any way and you were just like wtf just happened?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Freeroot:
I've dropped my phone in water and the water was immediately destroyed. I loved my Nokia.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bakarus:
I would definitely take battery out and leave phone in bag of rice for a day just to be sure. But that's just me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
Seriously dude, you need to let that thing air out for a day. I HIGHLY recommend disassembling it.

Believe it or not, the majority of phones we reject for liquid damage are not because of standing water short-circuiting the board or it's components, but rather water that has been left sit, and the board then corrodes. Alot of the effects of water on the board are not realized until after the water has sat for a while, and components start to calcify or rust. Just because the phone didn't fail immediately, does NOT mean you don't have a ticking time bomb of water in there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
If he ever brings it in for repair, they will notice immediately that it was exposed to water.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] |cyris|:
i dropped mine in water a few weeks ago at work. the battery cover came off and the battery got soaked. after it dried over night it worked, but acted weird for a few weeks. now its like nothing ever happened
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
I generally do not recommend rice, as it's pretty much a red herring for us to start looking for minute corrosion. Taking this phone apart is not difficult, all that is required is a small Phillips head and plastic thin enough to wedge between the screen and the bezel (or long fingernails lol).

Pat dry wet spots with a soft cloth; if youre really ambitious you can scrub small amounts of denatured alcohol on affected areas.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blu33:
I used a air compresser on full blasted everything. Took battery out and everything and used that air. Lets see what happens. Strange thing is the white battery indicator didn't turn red. I honestly think I took that thing out of the water so fast nothing happened. Hopefully it'll stay working.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Freeroot:
That's a good idea. Chances are that there is still water inside, for that reason, I would suggest letting it dry for a couple days. It's completely up to you, but the water will only harm the electronics if the phone is actually on. It only takes one drop in the wrong spot and it's all over, know what I mean? And it has been mentioned before, but they will not cover it if you bring it in, because they will see it has been in water.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Android300ZX:
It may not fail now but it will fail on you when you need it the most. Corrosion is a mother.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blu33:
Yea its what I'm worried about. Buy f*** it taxes are comin lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Indrid Cole:
Luvin your avatar.Go Giants. About the water thing let that mother dry alil. Compressed air has humidity in it also. Unless you have a inline dryer.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blu33:
Thnx :). For sure I hope everything works out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bman55:
This happened to me after I got home from my friends house. I was drunk and am tipsey now lol. Well I was soaking my feet in my bath tub and on the phone with my best friend and my phone fell and was submerged for a good 2-3 seconds but it did have a ballistic case on it. Immediately pulled it out took off the case pulled the battery sucked on every port to see if there was any water and left it on a radiator all night. Put battery in next day nothing was wrong.

Edit I asked him the next day I was like my phone fell in water and he's like no wonder you sounded so distant. I was like holy ****ing **** I was pissed at the time.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pcmanager:
I been on sprint network ever since they came to Los Angeles... Idk 15 years. Had the Sanyo contractor grade flip phone... IM a plumber... Was running some copper pipe in a ditch and my Sanyo slipped from shirt pocket into a pool of water.... I swear I heard it make a couple of electrical short circuit hisses and Sparks just before I plucked her from the water. I took off the back cover and removed the battery. Then I placed the shop vacuum hose on the back of phone, plugged it in and let it suck it dry for 30 minutes. Then I left it on my hot auto dash for another hour. After that the phone powered on and worked well for two more years.

I actually went swimming with my sgs1 vibrant and it still works but he screen is all fuzzy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Even having your phone in your pocket on hot days can get moisture going inside your phone. I got my Nexus wet by a glass of spilled water and the camera stopped working. I immediately opened it up and let it dey out. Everything except the camera worked perfect. I finally (after a few months) took it to a repair store (I always insure my phones) and the tech replaced the camera and no go. He then showed me how the corrosion started spreading through the phone. Luckily he hooked me up and ordered me another one after seeing my Epic Touch otherwise I would have had to pay the deductible. Moral of the story...even be careful keeping your phone in your pockets if you think you may get sweaty. I have a velvet pouch I keep mine in now. Also squshy knows his stuff when it comes to care/repair of these devices.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MJHawaii:
You need to carefully disassemble the phone if your unsure dont do it then dehumidfy your room as much as possible let it air dry and hope for the best dont wipe anything on the inside so as not to do more damage and hope for the best
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cfmarque:
My bro got thrown into a pool with his phone in his pocket.

He took out the battery and following his gf's suggestion he put everything inside a jar and then filled it up with rice, which sucked out all the moisture.

Been 3 months now, his phone still runs like nothing happened.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MJHawaii:
All in all no matter what you do time will tell
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Hopefully you have Sprints insurance. I mean yeah you'll have to pay the deductible & in all likelihood be sent a refurbished phone but at least you won't have to pay full price for a new phone should your phone no longer work.

If your up to it though Radio Shack has an emergency phone drying kit for about $20.

http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11628503
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
That's right. It took a few months and my phone was working fine but the corrosion was starting to spread internally even though the initial camera failure was still my only problem. The phone being a refurb and a cool tech saved me from paying the deductible so I bought something from the Sprint Store to pay it back
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Hopefully in the near future the Liquipel people will start offering their services for our phones.

At $59 (for standard wait time, higher priority costs more) this is the thing we exactly need.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:

Until it got too cold, I always lent my 8-year-old daughter my ET4G for her and her friends to use at the neighborhood pool so they could play "Sharks and Fishes" in the deep end....

I put on a nice, shiny live wallpaper like "Boids" so they could see it more clearly at the bottom of the pool in 13 feet of water....

Never had a single problem...

In fact, I've noticed that my signal strength improved dramatically, my battery life almost DOUBLED, and any apps that I couldn't get to run prior to their games, actually worked perfectly afterwards....

Oh yeah, Netflix worked still, but somehow all the movies were automatically upgraded to 3d, and all the hot chicks were naked by default.

Weird, huh?...

Actually, jacuzzi bubbles have the magical quality of permanently removing ads, and doubling the size of any sd cards that are present....

Charging your battery, I'm not very sure of, but your phone WILL permanently stay JUST warm enough to heat up any canned goods for life, or if you have 2 phones, you could make grilled cheeses forever...(which is nice.)

*This is all true because you just read it on the internet.
