I am running the latest version of Joelz ROM, just installed. Noticed when I try to add any widget it always force closes.

Anyone else have this issue? Anyone know of an easy fix? Maybe I can replace or repermission the file?

I attached a screenshot, although it doesn't tell you much more than what I did.
[HTC Rezound] jcollier:
I don't remember which page it was on, but it was related to an app causing a conflict. It happened to me but after I uninstalled Beautiful Widgets the problem went away. Hope this helps.
[HTC Rezound] djdubd:
I will look into that, of course I had reinstalled most of my apps before I tried to add widgets, didn't restore them... but still could've cause the issue.

I might just try to live without widgets until the next update since he is so quick to iterate!

Hi i updated my evo 3d to 2.3.4 hboot 1.5 i did update because i was having problems loading the icons of the apps that i have installed in my sd card. So the update fixed the problem. So my question is this. when i use htc method i didnt lose s -off . Should i still boot in recovery from adb to install a rom or kernel or i just can do it like when my phone was 2.3.3 hb 1.4?

i recently got a Galaxy s2

but i am having some problems with the network (have read many threads, but no fix so far)

so, the phone was 2.3.3 version

i flashed via odin stock roms to 2.3.5/6 version

but - no mobile network, changed different roms and on the KI3 i get 2-3 days using the mobile network, and then it loses the network...

any ideas what i can do?

FIXED
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Try flashing different modems until you find one that works well for you. There are a ton of threads on here which have links to modem downloads (and many of them are hosted on sites that still work), search for them.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wishmas7er:
i tried 4-5 modems...and not working..that's why i said i have read many threads

obviously i have to flash all possible region modems
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:

Does this only happen with your sgs2 or does it happen if your sim is in another phone?

Are your apn settings correct?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wishmas7er:
IMEI is same, no change

the APN settings are fine

the sim card works perfect with other phones, that's why i think the problem is in the phone

will try with other sim card in same phone and will post result. while waiting suggestions

obviously it wasn't a modem problem, but sim card - wasn't working with no matter what sim card. So i did few times the hard factory reset and used again Helroz application from the market, and on the 3rd time, it worked.

10x for the help and the advices guys :)

what leaves as a question is : am i going to be able to flash custom roms, and what is changed after the use of Helroz application, so i can do backups?

Hey. Sorry if this has been answered multiple times before. This is my first time rooting and installing a rom. After installing the rom, do you let it sit for 10 min after the reboot? Does this also pertain to updating a rom? Thanks for any answers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
well our device is a lot faster than older models so I Would say 5 minutes would do the trick...

But basically its for everything that you just flash to settle down.. It allows all those files to run correctly. It's like when you restart your computer. When you enter windows.. everything is still loading up... and you don't want to be opening games and **** already because it interrupts the loading process. ya dig? You also want to reboot after the wait.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
"Borrowing" some info from here, I successfully implemented kind of the same technique on my Ringke SLIM case.

The benefit of this is that you don't have to dismantle the phone at all ...

I'm really pleased with the result.

I have here some pictures. I was too excited so I did not took photos of the entire process but the ones who might try this can combine the original tutorial linked above and these photos to understand the process.

The case was modified on the inside but you can not tell this from the outside :).

The connectors are made of metallic copper/steel springs shaped as the case. The tip of the connectors have small soldering lead balls trimmed to fit the pogo holes. In this way there is always a little pressure on the connectors and the contacts are perfect.

And here is a short video with the final result/functionality:

[YOUTUBE]QOgMZt2xk_0[/YOUTUBE]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] allen2oo3:
that is fantastic. nice work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] machiz7888:
"you are my heroooo"

How long does the nexus have to sit on the touchstone before it registers that it's charging?

are there any concerns of overcharging?

(like if it were left on overnight)

Does it charge as quickly as a usb plug?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
I only can answer the following in this moment:

-The "charging" message is popping up in about ~10 seconds after placing the phone on the dock. This delay is normal for the docks with pogopins (this case) because the phone needs to know it is placed securely in the "dock" before it will start charging itself. Otherwise, if the charging will begin instantaneously, there is always the danger to play around with the phone (like putting in and taking it put quickly) and the battery will have to suffer.

- The voltage output of the induction circuit is 5V, exactly as the regular charger and the voltage is being applied on the pogo pins, exactly like the original dock => no concerns of overcharging.

As for the charging current and how long it will take to implement a full charge ... it seems that is charging 20% per hour (compared with 30% per hour if I'm plugging in the wall charger directly).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Step666:
In the thread linked-to in the OP, it's been reported that there's a correlation the charging delay and custom ROMs.

At least one person whose handset is running stock ICS is able to charge with no delay whereas everyone who has reported a delay is running some sort of custom ROM.

Not sure if that's just a coincidence borne of a statistically-insignificant sample size but it certainly seems like there's more to the delay than meets the eye.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinaminaator:
This is seriously cool, and very non-invasive to the actual phone! I might try this myself
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JackyMo:
Excellent work,

and...it is not easy for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stadsport:
Very cool, I wonder if you could use an extended battery cover with a stock battery and just build the inductive charger into the cover. Not sure if you'd be able to run leads straight to the battery, though, might still have to go to the pogo pins so it might be a bit invasive still.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 4Pr3mier:
what material did you use to make contact with the pogo pins?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] soulicro:
I'm wondering what you used to carve out the inner part of the case?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] calubren:
What does it say under settings -> battery? Is it USB or AC?

And what steps are the same compared to the linked method in your first post?

Fresh from my GNex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2dorr:
Good job ro, as usually.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
That one is another mod and is the one that lead me to this one :). Check it out in the tutorial used for inspiration (first link in the OP).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
All these questions have answers in the attached photos :).

For the contacts to the pogo connectors I initially used some aluminum foil but I saw (in few hours) that the contact was intermittent so I looked for another solution. Currently I've implemented two metallic connectors with a little soldering lead on the connector side so it will have a 3d shape that will fit the pogo counterparts (I've updated also the OP with the new connections).

The common part between my mod and the original one is the usage of the same touchstone parts, the "dismantle" of the palm battery cover, the voltage tests and the general way the connections are done. Basically is ~80% the same stuff only that is not being applied to an extended battery cover.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Step666:
You want want to read this thread then, as well as the one the OP linked-to, both of which are dedicated to that very idea - fitting the charging coil and connection to the pogo pins inside the handset.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
I took a short video with the final result: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOgMZt2xk_0

[youtube]QOgMZt2xk_0[/youtube]

In the second part I've activated "Desk Home" (an app that will trick the phone into thinking it is docked when you plug in a charger) and I've triggered "Night Clock" with it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Reveers:
Excellent! Great use for parts I have left over after the old palm pre died last week.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] machiz7888:
Can it charge faster than GPS usage + Pandora can drain it? Thats something that would interest me. If i could use it in the car, pandora + navigation running, and actually have it charge. Would ya mind doing a quick test for me :D?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stearic:
This is exactly what i was looking for. Did a search on here, other forums, and even threw a few keys words googles way and didn't come up with anything until tonight when i saw this. I'm going to have to get something like this setup as i already have a wireless charger (same standard as the palm puck) so it's only natural to want to use it. Would you have any recommendations on what case to use with the LTE version sporting the extended battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
@machiz7888: The inductive coil is transferring about ~400-450mA (equivalent to about 1.6-1.7W of power).

our device is draining about 1.2W just using the screen at maximum brightness (the standard car situation). If you are using navigation with the screen on and pandora at the same time, there is no way the coil will ensure the necessary power to sustain the full phone activity => the battery will drain a little.

Just turning off the screen should help the power balance and the phone should charge even under heavy load.

@stearic: The only case that can be used similar with what I did but for the LTE version would be the Case Mate barely there. I have no idea for extended battery what you could use. I'm also searching for a solution because I already ordered an extended battery and I don;t want to be force to choose between the two things (inductive charging or ext. batt.)
[Motorola Triumph] wildside84:
I am selling my dad's old moto triumph and I rooted it, but it is still running a stock ROM. Do I need to unroot and revert back to stock recovery so someone else can activate the phone?
[Motorola Triumph] marc12868:
No, but but you should so if the new person doesn't want it they don't have to have all of that. They can do it themselves if they really want to root it and get a custom recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] acura_speed:
I haven't seen much about this case on the forums. I thought people might enjoy a review of another option. This is the the Boxwave Unicolor in frosted white that I received from Amazon.

You can purchase the case for 16.95 with free shipping.

Boxwave.com

Amazon.com

The case is made of two different materials. The rim/bumper is made of a gloss TPU material. This is the what constitutes the color (frosted white) of the case. It does wrap the front of the phone, creating the lip for lay flat/facedown protection. The back is made of "see through" matte hard plastic. The pictures on the website are kind of deceiving as far as the back appears. It's doesn't seem as see through as it actually is. Hopefully the pictures I put up are a better representation of this. I actually like the effect, the hyperskin of the back door shows through and from straight on it almost looks as if there is no back cover at all. The hard plastic is thick and rigid enough to expect good protection.

I am using a Verizon LTE Galaxy Nexus and it fits very well with the standard battery door. The case does not add much thickness to the phone in my opinion. It is actually much tougher (but not too tough) to remove than other standard tpu cases, which I think lends credence as to how well this case fits. All of the cutouts are spot on. In regards to using this case with an extended battery door you will notice a squishy feeling on the bottom third of the sides, but the the lip of the case still wraps around the screen. I'm personally using the standard battery door with the extended battery and it fits in the case perfectly.

I do feel that the case is of good quality and will protect the phone as well and perhaps better than a diztronic or cruzer tpus case due to the hard plastic back. The buttons are standard tpu feel and are fairly easy to press, and to me are easy to find by touch. I personally like my buttons to be covered due to wear that I've had on previous phones where the buttons were exposed.

Overall I think the case is a nice option and something a little different than the cases that have been reviewed here already. The only real complaint I may have is the seam around the edge of the phone on the TPU, but thats fairly standard among these types of cases. It may be a bit over priced at 16.95 but I'm not regretting the purchase. Please ask questions, I'll try my best to answer them. :D

These are with the extended battery door on:
