[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Maesedroid:
Hi buddy's

Today got my skyrocket, im moving from a Galaxy Ace and found (im foreing) that i need an unlock code to use it (crap).

I got my code, its working ..my question is: if i root the phone or flash any other rom..

1- Will need to buy another code? At every flash i do ?

2- Or can use my code to unlock it forever in this device even flashing ?

3- why is needed a code? Which is the difference or utility in this?

Thank you guys, hope you can help me out of this because i want to start to develop in the forum and share amazing stuff :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lart2150:
flashing roms should not relock your phone but if it does your unlock code should work to unlock it again.

It only "allows" by IMEI configurations the use of foreign sim cards right? Thanks mate!!!

I've unlocked my phone via HTCDev, HTC Super tool and installed Clockworkmod from Market.

I have root, clockworkmod installed fine, recovery installed but if I do a backup it reboots and its on a black screen, red exclamation mark until I pull the battery. I've left it over an hour and it never does anything.

Any tips or something I'm missing so I can take a full rom backup ?
[Legend General] mph_aut:
try the s-off method of flashing clockworkmod from here:

Make sure you have the appropriate version of CWM as an update.zip in the root of your SD.

Then when you get to that screen with the generic device and red exclamatory point, press VOLUP + Power. Then select apply update:update.zip and it will launch CWM.

From there you can restore any backup you've made.
[Legend General] NX3:
Thanks, S-OFF worked and backup working :)

I'm seeing a lot of votes for Samsung. We currently have 2 Samsung Galaxy Nexus phones on Verizon and have to say we're a little disappointed. We can't transfer files to our phone via USB cable, our calls "drop" all the time. I put drop in quotations because they don't really drop, since the other person on the end of the phone can't hear us after about 5 minutes of a call so we have to hang out and call back. Lastly, our data connection keeps going out randomly, the bars of service drop off the radar and then the connection will restore. This is happening on both phones.

Called verizon, got a replacement and still happening. Not too happy right now with Samsung.
[General Topics] MissionImprobable:
There's no simple answer to this. Samsung is getting a lot of love lately, but the Galaxy Nexus feels cheap.

I love Motorola's hardware, but the Droid 4 has a horribly designed battery door, as did the Droid 3 to some extent.

Sony and HTC seem to have good overall build quality, but there are execution issues elsewhere.

Honestly, there is no "best" phone. You need to figure out what features you need and choose a phone based on that.

Hi,

I am a moderately experienced owner of S2 which has the following details

from *#1234#

PDA:I9100XWKF3

PHONE : I9100DDKE4

CSC: I9100ODDKF3

Country:India

from about phone(in settings)

Model # : GT - I9100

Android Version: 2.3.3

Baseband Version : I9100DDKE4

Kernel Version : 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF3-CL276555 root@DELL101#2

Build number : GINGERBREAD.XWKF3

I heard there was a KIES firmware update for my phone and so wanted to update. I installed KIES into my laptop and when I fired it up it notified of a KIES software update(update of KIES itself) and after updating KIES,I connected my phone which was detected properly.

I did the firmware update subsequently and after that the problem started. When I connect my phone using USB to the laptop, nothing happens, the phone doesnt charge even. Everything else works fine. I searched various forum posts but none of them work

1. Tick/Untick the USB debugging checkbox at Settings>Applications>Development -

did not work

2. type *#7284#, toggle PDA <-> MODEM.

didnt work

3. One curious thing is that, if I connect the phone after the phone is fully booted, it is not detected and the phone doesnt charge at all. But if connect the phone when it is switched OFF and then Switch it on, the phone does charge but still is not detected.

4. The cable is not faulty as it works perfectly with other samsung phones(Fit etc...).Also, its not the problem with my laptop as other mobiles are detected fine on my laptop.

pls help :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlowerPotmen:
Couple of things to try

1 Check the pins of the bottom of the phone?

2 Uninstall Kies and drivers, and reinstall?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gradientt:
The pins seems to be fine, anything specific I should look for?..and I have tried connecting in other systems with KIES and still the same problem. My friend's android phones connect fine in all the systems. Even if it was KIES drivers problems, shudnt it atleast charge the cell??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Rule one is use official Samsung USB cable

Rule two is use a mainboard USB Port .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gradientt:
Hmm, It is a official samsung cable.

I did not understand what u meant by mainboard port?? I am not using any hub if that whats you meant. I am thinking it is an issue because of the firmware update.

I was actually thinking of getting the firmware update and subsequently, after backing up using clockworkmod, I was thinking if getting either villianROM or revolutionROM. Now, backing up is out of question as the present firmware is broken. So, If I go ahead with the flashing, what options do I have if I want it to get to factory state for warranty purposes.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harsha Raj:
Connecting the AC charger when phone is switched on, will initiate charging?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gradientt:
yes. Normal charging happens fine. So its not the pins I guess.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlowerPotmen:
How about a factory reset? Try that!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gradientt:
sorry, should have mentioned that. I did factory reset twice and then went into recovery mode and did a wipe and clean and cleaned the cache too.

So, alternatively where can I get the stock rom/firmware for the specs i provided above. I found a thread where various firmware were provided but one compatible with my kernel..csc etc,, was not there

I appreciate u all replying. I tried on the indian thread but nobody seems to feel it worth replying.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] AC5FF:
I just got my Prime in the mail yesterday. So far I'm loving it. I have a long way to go to customize it how I would like; but thanks to this and other Prime forums I have found it is going to be a fun journey!

I do have a question to learn a little more on just how these work and was hoping to find an answer here. Theoretically - I'm running my Prime and some how corrupt or lock up the operating system. Whether it be a virus or what not; the tablet just starts to function slow/locks up/etc...

With a regular PC I know I could - worse case - reformat my hard drive and re-install my operating system and be back up and running. It takes some time and effort to get everything back and running correctly; but its not that difficult.

Can I do that with the Prime? Or any Android system (phone/etc...) If it is possible Ive not found out how yet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] netw0lf:
Yes, you can. You can always reinstall the os via adb. As for security, androidhas pretty good security but im also using the Norton security just in case...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
In most cases unless you did something stupid as root, you probably have a miss behaving app(s), and need to do data clear and/or uninstall of stuff to debug.

Towards a reformat, you can do a factory reset via the settings. It works like the reset buttons on most stuff, except you don't need a pin to push it :). This will not fix a borked rom.

Reinstall of whole os, see above and check the development forum.

Hello,

I need to know before install Overcome & CWM if it's possible to backup my stock KERNEL. Currently i have 2.6.36.3 kernel.

I think that is better to restore with the original kernel if need to use tha warranty one day ?

So is it possible to backup or download the stock KERNEL.

Thanks a lot for your help.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] bdfull3r:
before you do anything get a nandroid backup and save that original nandroid backup.

Nandroid Backups are a full ROM backup, that means:

Radios

ROMs

Kernels

User Data

Trying to claim a warranty after you violate the terms and services isn't the most honest thing to but if you intent to cheat the warranty system that just hold on to your backup. A nandroid backs up everything
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] subtil123:
Hi,

Thanks a lot for your reply. For the warranty I am okay with you regarding the honesty.

About the Nandroid ROM backup, i read somewhere that full backup must be done but it backup all except the Kernel !

I am little bit lost :

1/ The KERNEL Backup can be done with Nandroid backup ?

2/ Can we make Nandroid backup with stock ROM & stock Kernel (fresh TAB) ?

3/ The CWM is it a Kernel ?

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] bdfull3r:
CWM stands for clockwordmod, its a custom recovery. You need a custom recovery before you can start changing things about your tablet. It is Not a kernel. Think of a car. A kernel is like eh engine, the recovery is like a toolbox. Its more complicated but thats the idea. The stock recovery is too limited, which is why we have custom ones

When you do a nandroid back up it backs up everything. When you do a nandroid back it backs up the kernel as well as the ROM all of your settings and app data. All in one.

If you want a stock nandroid Do it first thing after you have a custom recovery. A nandroid is saved in the clockwordmod folder. Then save that file somewhere safe. Flash drive computer t whatever.

Hope this helps
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] suwandiapr:
Here is the Flashable zip for backup your Old recovery and kernel

First, You need root

From your stock recovery, Flash backupkernelrecovery.zip.

Approximately 30 seconds, backup process will make a folder "mybackups" in your SD card,

Reboot as normal, and Open "My Files" and see folder "mybackups"..

You'll find 2 file recovery.img(your stock recovery) and boot.img (stock kernel)

For Restore your recovery.img

download overcome cwm from alterbridge86 thread, unzip the file and replace recovery.img from that files with yours..zip again and flash from recovery, reboot and you got your old stock recovery..

Warning: Only restore Stock recovery after nandroid Restore done..with same firmware

Tested on my P7300 and works..
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] subtil123:

Alex-V - nice and simple and stable - never had issues with this- The rooted HTC official Desire ROM with a2sd built in. All you need to do is backup the sd, reformat t with the relevant ext partition (1GB usually sufficient) and then restore the sd contents. She won't notice a thing different...unless she removes the SD lol - Alternatively, same ROM with a modified HBOOT from alpharev.nl... although I would recommend staying away from this unless you really want to get involved with phone modding.
