[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
You only need the kernel beforehand for CWM. The mentioned roms have kernels included in their package, so it'll be changed upon flash. After flashing the rom, you then have the choice to change to the kernel of your liking. The kernel included is typically the developer's choice for what they think is the best for their rom (perhaps PirateGhost will chime in on this part). Your experience may vary though, which is why you might change to something else.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] emerica243:
Gotcha, totally understand. I looked around trying to find a thread that explained the different Base versions.

UCKK6

UCKH7

GWK74, etc,

Im trying to understand the order of oldest to newest release, and what the differences are.

Also, im guessing these bases are official samsung coded items right?

if any of you have a digital camera and white galaxy note, can you please post a picture of plain white display (via LCD Test *#0*#) in low brightness. Please let me know. thank you all in advance.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] netonyx:
Here you go. Hopefully the file attaches (I think it may be too large).

Oh, it looks like it may have downsized it. Let me know if you need more detail.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] avetny:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SAlmighty:
Thanks a lot! Do you have a screen protector applied on top of that? I see something that looks like mura lines. I'm sure those are not mura lines but the way the camera was focused on the screen. Also that display brightness was set to the lowest, right?

It would be great to see more users contribute to this thread. I'm making a tally to convince myself to buy a White note. My black note was serviced several times due to screen issues, and am getting a refund. Not letting go of the note just yet. :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SAlmighty:
don't know if my eyes are playing me, I do see a couple of horizontal lines, I don't know if that is due to the screen protector or the angle the picture was taken from, don't wanna scare you, but I am hoping that the next wave of batches have a better production like the S2.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] intruda119:
The witch hunt continues
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SAlmighty:
Always Positive...

However, you can definitely appreciate the fact that the White Note has a better display than the Black. Horizontal lines or not, they definitely display less on the White compared to the Black. Hope to see more pictures soon! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] netonyx:
No screen protector. And yes, I set the brightness all the way down before I took that photo.

I think if you're seeing a moire pattern it may be because of the difference in resolution between the reduced-resolution image and your monitor. I'm looking at the original photo in Photoshop and when I zoom in and out I see changing moire patterns at certain zoom levels, but don't notice anything when I look at it zoomed in at 100%, or even at 50%. And of course I don't see any moire pattern when looking at the phone itself.

Oh, and the brighter area in the lower left of the photo is my hand's reflection. :)

I do, however, see faint horizontal (vertical in this photo) banding on the screen when looking at the phone. I couldn't say whether it's any better or worse than the black/carbon blue version, as I've never seen one. I'd describe the banding as very faint, but visible if you're looking hard for it. And when looking at a blank white screen like this, I also have a general sense that not every part of the screen is quite the same level of brightness. Again, not major, but noticeable when looking at a solid white screen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PoisonWolf:
You'd need to reduce the brightness further with Screen Adjuster from the market. The basic brightness setting at 0% is probably only at 50% of what the screen is actually at. So you can go much dimmer to reveal the manufacturing process. :)

Learn to live with it. The marks don't affect the functionality of the screen. While I have noticeable marks on the bottom right half of the corner and vertical streaks, I don't let it deter me from enjoying this elegant piece of tech!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] easycure1974:
That is bollocks :) My new white 32 GB Note has a much worse display than my former two blue 16 GB. Think I gonna send it back so that the white has a better display is pure dreams

i have black unit and i done lcd test on low brightness.no lines or anything.

if you have to download app to lower brightness even more to see defect.then something is wrong with u.because ur looking for reasons to find some kind of defect.everything is not perfect.if u cant see it on normal use,then its good piece.
[Motorola Photon 4G] WHYDavid:
I've been using Joker Rev1, Rocko2.3 and CM7.2 roms lately. Once CM9 gets to beta, I'll probably add that to my mix as well.

It seems like the easiest way to move back and forth between the roms is to restore from nandroid backups. Is this the best way to move between roms?

My understanding is that when I do a restore, it replaces everything to the way it was at the time of the backup. Is that correct? Or should I wipe and/or format anything prior to the restore? Everything has been working so far, but I'm worried about the possibility of leaving artifacts when changing roms this way that might eventually have a negative effect... Do I need to worry about that?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bradleyw801:
You should do a full wipe. A nand restore will put back everything that needs to be put back. When you don't do a complete wipe, you could be leaving things behind.

There are also some people out there writing programs for "dual booting" two different roms. You can try searching for one that would work on the MoPho.
[HTC Desire S] Nezbert:
I bought my Desire S from eBay which was Orange SIM locked and Orange branded.

After messing about with custom ROM's I set it back to S-ON and flashed the UK Orange RUU. It was working with an Orange SIM that I have, but rarely use.

I went to a high street phone unlocking guy earlier today and paid for him to unlock it. I didn't see exactly what he did, but he put a SIM in it and may have connected it to a small unlocking device. I asked him 'I can put any SIM in, yeah?' once he'd finished and he said yeah. I went to a nearby coffee shop and sat down, swapped the Orange SIM (which had a signal) with my giffgaff/o2 SIM and I also got a signal. 'great' I thought, 'his unlocking trick worked!'.

I put my giffgaff SIM back into my Galaxy S for the journey home, since I've got that all set up how I like it, and I put the Orange SIM that I don't use back into the Desire S.

Now that I'm home neither SIM is working :confused:

I thought to myself 'did the guy only temporarily unblock my phone?' but that can't be right because when I was sat in the coffee shop I rebooted the phone at least twice, if not three times, when I was swapping SIM's so a temporary fix would've been cancelled out then.

Is it because I tried to use a giffgaff/o2 SIM with an Orange branded RUU ROM? Would that have done something to my radio?

It sometimes displays 'limited service' on the lockscreen and displays 'no service' on the unlock screen bar.

I've tried switching it to GSM only in the menu's.

Should I S-Off the phone and flash a custom ROM to try and rectify the situation, so that I can use any SIM in the phone?

Could it be that his special SIM has dirtied the contacts in my phone?

It worked about 3 hours ago :confused::confused::confused:
[HTC Desire S] Nezbert:
Update:

I just picked it up and then noticed that I had a signal on giffgaff!

The signal has gone again but at least the SIM is working. Either there are local network troubles of the radio I'm using is not too good.

I'm going to go ahead and S-OFF, root and custom ROM to see if that helps signal strength.

Will a custom ROM install update the radio, or do I have to specifically flash a new radio?
[HTC Desire S] TooByAas:
So have you tried to use SIM in another phone?

I had same kind of issue. I called to customer service and they said that try SIM in another phone, then put it back to my phone and that solved the problem!

So I was changin my service provider and tested a new SIM in my phone(wasn't in operation yet) and then switched back to old SIM, then "no network". Randomly gave some signal but only few seconds at time.

Sorry for my english.. May be that I missed some points of your text :confused: But hopefully I helped!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djk21108:
Hi all,

My question relates to sending texts over 160 characters. It works sometimes, and sometimes it doesn't.

I'm on the latest teamhacksung 6.1 version of ICS with default kernel. My modem is ED05.

Sometimes I'll send texts that would be 2, 3, or 4 pages and it gets through just fine. Other times, I'll send a 2 page text to the same recipient and it bounces back with a red triangle (standard messaging app).

Does anyone have this experience, and any suggestions to fix it?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkuehl06:
I use ec09 modem and haven't had this problem and I send long texts all the time. Try eh03 or ec09 modem and it should help. I'm not going to promise that it'll fix, but its worth a shot.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
You can try a different radio, but a workaround that works 100% of the time is going into the messaging app > settings then check "SMS split". It'll automatically split your long texts into multiple messages, and while I'd like it if longer texts just worked every time, this is at least a decent workaround.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djk21108:
Thanks. I appreciate the reply. I know SMS split works, but I'm just curious if my issue occurs for everyone else =)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] sneakysolidbake:
If you get the files you need, how long would it take a certified hacker such as yourself to complete such a port?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chairshot215:
probably going to need a lot more then just the apk. could probably just download one of the stock Roms on the forums and extract the zip to get all the files you may need. It would be nice to port over a few more stock apps into other Android versions. I personally have spent more than a few hours trying to get the stock email and contacts app working on CM7 and is not as easy as I thought it would be. I also suck so I'm sure that has something to do with it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Jessical:
The APKs are encrypted. You cannot just go into it, pull out code, and easily port it over unless you decompile them first.

It's just garbled junk when you extract it.

The OP has no idea how to do this, and it's already something someone else is currently trying to do and even they're having a few issues since it's pretty much just images and fancy shader plugins that make up the entire thing. Not even the bookshelves themselves are images either.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] chairshot215:
question?

How am I able to extract Roms and then push files from the extracted Rom to my device? Just curious as I do this all the time. Nothing major, did this with things like the bootanimation.zip from cm9 and a few apks from zips of Roms for my phone. Most would not install if I just put on sd partition and hit install but for example I am writing this on the stock keyboard I took from the prerooted stock 6.2.2 Roms zip. Extracted the zip to my desktop, used that qadb thing floating around to overwrite the file with the same name in CM7 on my Kindle and was able to use the keyboard after rebooting. Like I said just curious, do understand it's not always as easy as putting an apk in a directory and rebooting but I use files from extracted Roms all the time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Jessical:
This is an educated guess, but I think it has to do a lot with whether or not an app is tied to the framework, or to the specific device ID.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] jeffbud98:
Its not that hard i downloaded the email client from the kindle fire on my xperia play all what i did was go into root explorer and make a copy of the apks on my sd card

Right well been playing aruond alot with my phone and now want to go back to stock rom so i can install sgs 2 final rom.

The reason is that the a2sd isnt working on that rom and the kernel that i have is not cf-root and cf-root will not install when i flash the rom.

So obviously i have a galaxy ace, it's GT-S5830.

I am unable to recover my backup using cwm as it just stops at the second samsung boot animation.

Now i am looking for the stock baseband version but cannot find that. My baseband is S5830BVKQA.

I have been using cm7.1 and .2 which from what i have read causes problem due to ext4 and rfs system thing.

Please help me this is the last thing that i even want to know
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SpaceCaker:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Weeeman:

I use setting profiles to create a night/sleep profile that keeps the phone quiet, unless someone in my family group calls.

I have this set on a time schedule that depends on the day.

Does lots if cool stuff like silence your phone during meetings, lower volumes during work etc... its a little easier to use than tasker IMHO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tauruslei:
I haven't tested yet but Llama has this function called Noisy Contact which allows you to set a different ring volume to some contacts while the phone itself keeps the original volume setting.

Just search market for llama :)

Llama is fantastic. My phone goes silent at night, but if my wife calls it will ring.

Yeah llama can do a lot more than just profile managing. If set properly it could potentially boost your battery life a little. I ask it to turn off wifi and sync at night if I'm home, which is kinda nice.

I would love to see NFC implementation tho :)
