[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NOOBJEFF:
Good Evening. I am using a Sprint branded Samsung Nexus S SPH-D720 on the Boost Mobile Network and have the 2.3.7 version of Android currently installed. I am new to these forums, and am looking to upgrade the current Operating System on the phone to the new Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.? version. Which is the best, newest, WORKING version that I should upgrade to as of today? Remember I am new, and NOT familiar with the flashing process on cellphones. Is there a guide I can use to help walk me through the process, and to backup the current version in case I make a mistake somewhere along the way - so that I can restore it? Someone please help. Thank you VERY MUCH!!!!

- NOOBJEFF :o:o:o:o
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghling:
First of all you should consider if you want to unlock and root you phone. For most Roms you need to unlock the phone (which can be undone later) and the roms come with root access (which, under some circumstances can void your warranty).

Maybe you could just use the official ICS update, with that you don't really need to bother with flashing etc. if you don't want to.

Otherwise, you'll find lots of different roms in here (mainly in the android development forum) and also lots of guides how to do certain things.

Just look around, I'm sure you'll find most of the guides / answers you are looking for. If not, you sure are welcome to ask :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strra:
just don't forget that you have to set your APN back to boost whenever you flash a ROM for your mms to work.

If you need help with flashing, send me a PM and I'll do what I can to help

I have recently upgraded my phone to Gingerbread JVKPB 2.3.6 with:

PDA: JVKPB

PHONE: JXKP3

CSC: JVKP7

After upgrading, my battery performance turned out to be worst than ever. Now I want to go to the previous version with much much better battery performance. Version numbers were as such:

PDA: KD1

PHONE: KA4

CSC: KC1 (TUR)

Any way do find this version of firmware?

Thank you in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
if you only just upgraded, your battery is out of calibration. read my sig links.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] prayush12:
try callibrating ur battery first and then install juice defender and use it at aggresive or extreme settings

also install a good task killer, advanced task killer or gemini task killer widget(fo manual operation but fair effectiveness....)

all apps availbale in the market...

then use phone at low brightness and also screen timeout should be reduced to 15s.....display consumes most battery other than internet and location services...switch off all that u r not using and ur gud to go....

hope i helped

Me and my brother both have TF Primes an on both of our tablets from the day we got them have had problems with the YouTube app. Not really serious issues but any time you type with the on screen keyboard it will flash on and off, disappearing , then reappearing very rapidly. Also when using the dock if you use the search bar on a page after viewing a video, the space bar will only move down to one of the related videos, not make a space in the search bar. Just wondering if anyone else is having these problems, and if there is a fix.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blazeitup123:
Same issue, and no fix...yet.

I really don't worry to much about software issues on any of my devices because i am pretty addicted to flashing and these issues is what i love about android. Researching and finding the cause then understanding how to fix it. I don't think i would be very happy with a flawless device. No fun in it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lamboboy732:
Yea...it isint really a problem at all since the app still works, good to know it isint only my family's devices. Thanks.

Download Links to Roms

Hey everyone,

Over the past weeks, I have realiezed that certain rom's download links are down. I feel that it would be a good idea to have just one thread with download links for roms, and mods for it that can't be found. In threads like UnNamed, people are posting links to their dropbox, but it is hard for people to find becuase they dont want to dig around the forums. So if everyone could just post links to rom downloads that would be great.

I'll start

I'm having trouble flashing the current RUU.exe 2.01.605.11. The RUU will say its rebooting to the bootloader, and then error. I've never flashed an RUU this way, I usually flash the RUU zip file through hboot. If somebody could help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Im kindof in a bind now, I need to get this phone back to verizon. As of right now, I relocked, tried turning usb debugging on and off. I also have the RUU in my android sdk tools folder, and ran the RUU as admin. Like I said, any help would be appreciated.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
I believe there is a PHzip file of it in the RUU thread so you can do it in hboot.
[HTC Rezound] a-jive:
I had the same problem. Check out this thread... Someone hooked me up with a way to pull the flashable file out and it worked perfectly.

Other than that I haven't seen a flashable zip of this version.

Thanks a lot guys

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sarinhighwind:
youtube is suddenly having issues with the default browser like it lost the player files. Its giving me the missing player logo.

This just happened today.

Doesnt look as if im having issues with other sites.

Flash content is harder to find now.

If i use the desktop version of the page, flash works. Its just the mobile version.

I uninstalled any updates or newly installed programs thinking that was it, but it had no effect.

Anyone seen this before, or having this issue?

I am computer comfortable not necessarily literate and fast....

please any links and stay in order....

ie do I flash first then root etc......
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] estxxas:
First, let me say I did search for this issue and couldn't find an answer. I saw that one user had asked the same question in the original CM7 nightly thread (not the twice weekly), but never received an answer. Sorry if it's been answered elsewhere.

I'm running the latest CM7 nightly from Sam3000, although this isn't a new issue. While on a call, SMS notifications play through the rear speaker, causing the person on the other end of the call to hear it as well, interrupting them. I've dug around all the settings on the phone itself and can't find a fix.

Is there something I'm missing? Is there any sort of flashable mod to change this? I'm using the stock messaging app, as I actually prefer it to GoSMS and the like, but if using a 3rd party app is my only hope then so be it.

Thoughts?

I successfully rooted eclair from brand new using z4root. I just flashed 2.2 using odin. I'm now on;

Baseband: I5800XXJP4

Build Number: FROYO.XWJPK

I have tried using z4root again, it goes through some commands then gets near the end, vibrates a couple of times and then nothing happens and eventually the screen goes black and it's almost like the app dies cus I get taken back to file manager, then if I click z4root again it starts installing from scratch.

I have also tried using Universal Androot, and again this goes through everything then fails.

Superone click won't even start for me, I just get the error message "The application was unable to start correctly" error code 0xc000007b

What do I have to do to root my phone???
[Galaxy 3 General] Spitlebug:
To get Superoneclick to work you need to run it as administrator.

Also, I was unable to get some of the breaks for Superoneclick to work. I ended up using psneuter to break it.

Edit: Don't forget to set your phone to USB debugging.

Im new here and Im learning to flash, I already tried miui after reading the stickies under development section, now I wanted to try Fasty III, link/links not working! then the second rom that atract me was iluminance 3 and all links were on multiupload! come on guys multiupload has been dead all the month!!

I have data2sd installed with 200apps....data2sd is very slow n lags alot...I want to use link2sd as its faster but will I b able to hav 200 apps and does link2sd use the internal space even after linking all the files to sd card..

1 GB INTERNAL MEMORY

[HTC Wildfire S] Tigger31337:
Link2SD does, in fact, continue to use internal space.

Depending on certain criteria (which I don't know), certain apps will continue to throw some portions onto internal memory.

Even if you're as anal as I am about going into Link2SD (after enabling the "auto-move to external thingy") and then MANUALLY grabbing linked apps and pushing them over to SD... you will still cry, swear, and wonder where all your internal space went. ;-)

I'm at about 50-60 installed apps and I'm down to 28MB left internally (only started off with about 57MB though, due to custom ROM limitation (deodexed).

Good luck,

- What name convention you use for storage External and Internal? As CM the SDCard is Internal storage?

Great work!!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gh123man:
yes, there is no blur. its sourcebuilt. name convention is exactly the same cm7.

external = sdcard

internal = emmc

THANKS! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] live4nyy:
Yeah, really. CM7 and Neutrino are both recommended to flash from internal. :rolleyes: Most of the Blur ROM's install instructions usually refer to using the "SD Card". I have read of people encountering issues if they don't follow the recommended procedure. Simple enough question I believe. :p

Also, it has been shown plenty of times that using the wrong recovery can cause issues.

I'm not suggesting that either way is "necessary" but rather I would like know if there is a "recommendation". :)
