Yup I successfully managed to replace a digitizer but I'm also a trained phone technician.

The most important thing is to be very careful. You should never have to use force in order to disassemble a phone.

How to get the cracked digitizer off? Simple, use your oven.

* Place the display-module (Chassis, digitizer,LCD) on a tray, make sure the plastic parts don't touch the bottom, so that it doesn't melt.

* Heat the oven to about 80-100 degrees celsius.

* The display should come off pretty easily.

* If you've done it properly, you can use the same adhesive that was one the chassis/frame if not you'll have to purchase some slow drying adhesive and carefully place it around the edges.

* Carefully move the light-guides on the bottom of the screen to the new digitizer. There's a small amount of adhesive on them so don't get any sweat on them. If they don't stick just use a very very, I'm talking pixel size amount of adhesive on it to get it to stick.

That's about it. Thread the flex-cable around the display and use a tweezer to connect it.

Hello just got this phone its on 2.2.1 i tried kies it says unregistered device.What's a easy way for a noob to get this done?Im scared of odin because i hardbricked a cappy before using it.Im sure that brick was my noobness any help to links would be great thanks.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
you won't brick this phone. as for the cappy you can thank Samsung and design gears for that. Samsung put out numerous builds of bootloaders that weren't compatible with each other. some didn't have working 3button combos. design gear figured out that he could flash the secondary bootloaders in an update.zip with bmlwrite to fix 3 buttons and started bakery mg it into roms. also the later captivates were not compatible with the early bootloaders and would brick with the oneclick Odin.

there haven't been too many legitamately hardbricked infuses. maybe some that the owners gave up on but no real hardbricks. out devs leaned the bootloaders lessons before and the infuse has fewer bootloaders and no packages that lack the compatible primary bootloader to the secondary bootloader except uckh1 which is froyo, so never flash from gingerbread to the kh1 build of froyo.

Got my brand new nexus today, rooted it using toolkit, then i wanted to install a rom. Everything went fine, flashed eagle blood, everything went fine. Then i downloaded an app and it took for ever to download so i rebooted my phone, then i was stuck with the dreaded animation lock. Now no matter what i do, i cant get past the animation. Still have access to CWM, tried a factory reset/cache wipe...but no success...

Any idead?

P.S. It's not me, it's my friends nexus! I got skyrocket!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shieze:
Flash the stock ROM on the phone. You have access to recovery so use it then after you verify you can boot with the stock ROM then try flashing another ROM on again.

Personally as it is your friends phone if (s)he doesn't know how to flash ROMs then I would leave the phone stock.

No idea what caused you from being able to boot to this issue but this is my advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] polish_pat:
by that you mean to what??? because on the skyrocket flashing to stock rom is quite simple, via ODIN + Stock TAR...but how to do it on nexus?

everybody has to start somewhere...you werent the android dev youself the first time you flashed. I brocked my skyrocket the first hour i got it because of a flailed flash...but today, 2 months later i can do anything with it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
Go into cwm, do a wipe and also go into advanced and wipe dalvik. You should then be able to reflash your custom rom to fix your boot loop. If thats successful then go back to cwm and make a NANDROID backup so they have a restore point if anything goes wrong in the future.

If you want to flash back to stock its quite simple and can all be done from my ToolKit. Its basically going to http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html and downloading the latest factory rom for your model, moving it to the correct folder in the ToolKit and then selecting option 8 from the ToolKit to extract the images and flash it.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boardrx182:
I've run into the same issue tonight going back to Apex 1.0.2 from the 4.0.4 leak. I'm trying the suggestion below to wipe and re-flash the ROM. I'll report back when I'm finished.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunoma:
Hey there,

I was wondering if anyone could shed some light as to why Sense 3.5 ROMs tend to lag so much? I've tried practically every one from Virtuous Affinity, to RCMix 3D to RunnyMead. By far, I got the smoothest experience from the latter. I tried everything to try to improve performance from removing unnecessary system apps like HTC Watch, to using Supercharger script, to a sd-ext on my SD card. Yet I can never seem to escape lag! Now I'm using a Sense 3.0 rom, that is, Virtuous Unity and it's so much faster and smoother despite its using up a similar amount of space. I really like the 3.5 ROMs but I just can't use them because they're too slow and laggy despite my best efforts to speed them up... :(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blahbl4hblah:
I could be wrong but the sense 3.5 is a port from another phone that may be why. To be honest I dislike sense with a passion. I'm an AOSP type of guy. I'm pretty sure that the developers working on that rom will make it faster. Btw you mentioned your using sdext which one are you using?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunoma:
Yeah I tried AOSP but I only like Ice Cream Sandwich, which still isn't working fully at the moment. I'm using a 128mb sd ext4 with a 256 swap partition.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRFFTR:
You call Virtuous Unity fast? I used it for 2 months and easily can say that it is the laggiest thing I have ever seen, but these kind of things are relative... Have you tried MikRunny or BeatMod BlissSense Hybird? I am using BlissSense now and so happy with it, even without swap or supercharger, it doesn't lag, and also Bliss rosie looks really classy :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunoma:
Yeah I take my statement regarding unity back cos after one day of use, it just kept getting slower and slower... yeah I'm using BlissDroid now, the new one by alirez_sos! So fast, stable and smooth!

Ungrateful

Be Happy We Have Devs Putting their time and effort into porting and making ROMs for us to Flash

Hit that Sexy Thanks button'
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
OP hasn't criticized the Devs, just asking the technical or specific reason that Sense 3.X ROMs lag in comparison to older versions of Sense.

To some extent, I'm wondering the same thing. Its always said that Sense 3.X takes up more memory than the G2/DZ has to offer. But what exactly is taking up all the memory? For instance, on NRG's RCMix Energized Blue version, he has made for a smooth rosie experience, yet the phone often lags for several seconds when starting apps or going into Settings. Rosie is not the issue alone, since I use ADW as my launcher, and yet the Sense 3.X ROMs still lag.

Hybrid ROMs like Synergy and InsertCoin bring many of the Sense 3.X apps to Sense 2.x (lockscreen, camera, weather and more), and yet those ROMs are much more responsive than Sense 3.x ROMs. So it doesn't seem to be the apps themselves.

If its some component of the Sense framework sucking up memory, has anybody identified what and why, or if it can be removed or modded?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blahbl4hblah:
I hope you do realize that size of sdext is a reason why your phone is running so slow
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunoma:
Excuse me, I'm far from ungrateful! I've tried various different ROMs and have offered my feedback on them to the developers so they'll have an idea on which areas to improve. I think the work that has been done has been fantastic such as the recent addition of Ice Cream Sandwich, which will I believe be glitch free. I was merely asking why some Sense 3.0 ROMs tend to be laggy and what have other people's experiences been of them. :rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunoma:
Oh that was the size that was recommended on the Virtuous Affinity thread... what size would you yourself recommend in that case? Thanks! ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blahbl4hblah:
1gb, I don't know why they recommended the smallest possible size which causes your phone to run so slow. All of my roms use sdext and I always recommend at least 1gb
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youleck:
Intresting.. I'll try it on hmm.. on what? Which rom you recomended to daily use? Sense 3.0 and 3.5 of course, doesn't matter which.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blahbl4hblah:
I say go aosp its faster then both and you'll have a smoother experience. I'm an aosp guy not sense but stability wise go 3.0
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DinoSoup:
Sense roms take time to break in, especially on the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qjbj90:
I use 512mb. Works for me on sense roms. I gave up 3.0 sense cause of the lag. I guess because of the amount of resources it drains there's a performance hit. It became to much of a hassle. My opinion. Still sexy ass rom lol

If you can't even find a ROM thread, you shouldn't for a moment consider flashing it if someone actually does link you to it (which I really hope they don't).

2. there are two ways to do it

adb shell

which will give you the same terminal as method <a>
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
3. If you are running unbranded firmware, you have native tethering. Look under Menu > Settings > Wireless and network > Tethering and portable hotspot.

If you are running a branded firmware, chances are that the carrier firmware has this disabled. If rooted, you can use the wireless tether for root users app. (Google is your friend)

I'm trying to locate a update of my Android 2.3.5, version 651.73.240.XT910.Vivo.en.BR but I cant find yet.

Anybody here have, or know how I can find this update, if exists?

Thanks in advance,

[Motorola Droid RAZR] casaroli:
It does not work with LATIN AMERICA devices (like ours), because the LEAKED update is just for EUROPE.

You should update to 651.73.2062.XT910.Vivo.en.BR if you want the latest official version for your phone.

And then you can try the ARCTIC ROM if you want something different than stock.

I highly suggest you update to 2062 and wait for official updates.

In doing my own debloat of the deodexed stock ROM, I deleted any market-downloadable apps like Google Search and Voice Search.

Apparently, even though I went to the market and downloaded Google Search, pressing the search key does nothing when I'm at the home screen. It appears that the Google Search .apk has to be in the /system/app folder for this to work. Strangely enough, this is not the case with Voice Search. Long pressing the search button still brings up my market-downloaded Voice Search.

Sloppy coding for sure. I know an Intent needs to be changed somewhere, but I'm really new to Android and don't really know where to look. Any idea what string in what file to edit to fix this?

[Xoom Themes and Apps] ZanshinG1:
In fairness, most web developers are taking a shortcut and assuming anything with "android" in the user-agent string is mobile instead of asking the browser for screen dimensions. This is bad but common practice.

The way which was finally added in the ICS browser to work around this is to change the user-agent string platform info to X11 instead of Android.

When you "request desktop site" this is what happens.

Site thinks is mobile: (Linux; U; Android 4.0.3; en-us; Build/ITL41F)

Site thinks is desktop: (X11; Linux x86_64)

This is an inelegant hack. (Though I am surprised it's missing from Chrome for Android)

Ideally, web developers will clue into the existence of tablets and properly handle things.

Chrome is fast, although it takes some effort to close tabs and open new ones. I can't wait for an update and all the things that are obvious (extensions, flash, quick controls). I love how android is growing up. I feel like a proud father watching it go from a small phone ui to now on the brink of blossoming out to all areas of life. By that i mean throughout our homes i.e. Google home integration. I don't think Google has any plans to support flash though with this browser. The HTML YouTube in this browser is fast an non buggy. I'm sure Google wants to keep their browser flash free so they can monopolize web m.
