So here the deal, I wanted to restore my phone to stock since it was giving me problems. I followed Qbking video on how to restore your phone to stock and did that. But i ran into a issue with the phone being stuck at the boot logo "Samsung galaxy s 2" So i did what he said and boot into recovery to data wipe.. But when i do that it either does one of two things.

1. Takes forever to wipe data

2. Displays these error codes

And yes i can get to Download mode fine i even flash different .tars.. but when i flash a .tar like "Stock rooted data wipe" Odin just hangs on data.img and stop flashing my phone after that..

soo do i have a brick phone or what? :confused: it dont even want to charge anymore. every time i plug the cable in it the charging icon just sits there with the circle in the middle of it doing nothing

Somehow your partitions look like they are corrupted. You can try manual ODIN flash with the repartition option selected.

I want to recover/back up messages to my computer from my dark X1 (lcd flex cable damaged no picture) but not sure how do I do it ?

I did sync everything possible from the phone using MS activesync to my laptop 's outlook and I get contacts, calendar, notes etc. but my messages are not there. On the phone outlook had a separate folder with messages. DOes the Activesync omit the messages folder ?

I chose to sync "all" in the time bracket options for email.

Is there any other way to get my messages back ?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] przemke:
I have asked this question in a couple of other related threads, no answer so far.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] da_hool:
Thanks!

I have the Sena UltraSlim and it took a few days to break in so that the buttons aren't a problem. It is the slimmest way to carry your phone in your pocket with protection from scratches.

I'm considering getting the Spigen SGP Crumena as well but I'm waiting for a video review or more pics. I'm wondering how well the fit is when inserting the bottom of the phone first. The pics on the SPG website show it inserted with the top of the phone in first.

Krussell and PDair cases have never been my thing. Being a minimalist, those cases are way too bulky for my taste.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] da_hool:
I'm certain that this is a generic case and not tailored for the Galaxy Nexus. This same case can be found on many different eBay listings with many different colour options, all while suggesting it is made specifically for a different phone.

And from the video, the top of the phone protrudes about 0.5mm from the top when fully inserted. A bit too much for my liking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PaulCayard:
Yes, your remarks are correct: there are more colors and it is not Galaxy Nexus tailored (infact in the pics of the product there is an iPhone :D ).

i just bought a bugatti skinny pouch....will give some feedback as soon as arrives...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beren:
as said, i bought bugatti skinny for galaxy nexus...less than 10 euros shipped from amazoooon.de

have to say that it doesn't fit perfectly, as it's a little big for GN, so you won't need to pull it out from puoch.

btw i like it, it's real leather, if you put the phone inside from the top you can still see the notification led, and this is very useful.

i'd like to have the pull system too but can live w/out that for now..

here's the colour i choosed:

[Windows Phone 7 General] sikodemon:
Hi, I've just moved from android to WP7.5 mango but I'm a little disappointed by the lack of apps that can truly multitask, especially messenger apps.

Yea they all "work" fine but after moving from a high end android to a high end WP7 I'm surprised that even though the app can alert you of notifications through push, when you click on the appropriate app it has to almost open up/boot up from new, unlike in android where the program is constantly running in the background and can be summoned almost instantly without the lag of resuming from a deep sleep.

I've checked in settings under "background tasks" and none of the messenger apps appear there which makes me wonder if they are truly multitasking (which I'm pretty sure they are not) as this was one of the supposed key features of the mango update.

Does anyone know if this is going to be the way it will always be or is this something that is going to improve with time, so we can switch between apps at will without the app ever closing or hibernating?
[Windows Phone 7 General] sikodemon:
Also, something else I've noticed, push notifications will not start until the first time the messenger app (in this instance Kik) is started up for the first time since boot. Unlike in android I guess a background process started running from when the phone boots so that even though the app hasn't actually been opened yet it will still alert you of anything new.
[Windows Phone 7 General] aquanaut88:
Skype is rumored to be floating about withi MS... possible end of Feb release? Would guess app will take advantage of toast, push, etc. if not, then as you've discovered with existing IM's, less than ideal experience.

Cheers
[Windows Phone 7 General] lovenokia:
if you jailbreak your phone, there is a registry edit that will make every app work with the multitasking regardless if it supports mango or not. I believe it is the dehydration hack to 0, something like that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
Messengers like Whatsapp and Kik use push notifications. That's why they don't appear under Background tasks as these are scheduled tasks that are executed periodically. And I personally rather wait that extra 2 or 3 seconds for an app to load instead of having it wasting precious battery life and RAM. Especially the latter sucks since it causes instability and lags.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JVH3:
That isn't actually background processing. It just stays in memory so exectution can immediately resume without reloading the app and data.

For many things, this is actually desired behavior. Imagine playing some arcade style game. Switch to a different app for a few minutes. Return to the game only to find that it is over. And for other apps that don't change the display without the user entering information, there is no point for CPU consumption until it is back to the foregroung.

I have the setting applied and verified with Angry Birds that it pauses once in the background, but immediately resumes once you return.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sikodemon:
I can see where you're coming from now, yea, I suppose I too would prefer to wait a few extra seconds than have it drain battery. Just didn't realise such a simple app like kik/whatsapp would use so much resourses to cause a serious effect.

Oh well:)
[Windows Phone 7 General] sikodemon:
Also, as mentioned above, I don't seem to receive notifications via the messenger apps until I open it for the first time since the phone boots.
[Windows Phone 7 General] madphone:
on android the power consumption of whatsapp in background is so low, that it almost can't be messured at all.

It is quite annoying that you have to wait for reloading everytime you get a message pushed.

i have tried not to use whatsapp and google talk on my galaxy s for a while and used wp7 apps instead. but it didn't last long. it's simply to slow, when you are used to android (4).
[Windows Phone 7 General] beatseek@live.com:
The load time of WhatsApp doesn't bother me.

The big problem is that I want to use WhatsApp instead of text messages, but because push notifications usually arrive very late (usually 15 minutes late, sometimes more), I can't rely on it instead of text messages.

EDIT: I decided to bite the bullet, and did a hard reset to my phone. Now push notifications are working properly. Yay!
[Windows Phone 7 General] sikodemon:
But why? Why should the push notifications take so long compared to android devices? Surely they both use a similar process to check and receive. I've gotten so used to apps running perfectly behind the scenes that suddenly not having it almost makes the phone unusable

Having serious second thoughts about WP7 now. :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Actually, I felt in same way as you do now, when I moved to WP7. I had an iPhone which works like Android (front ending at least). Instant resume. So I wanted to die everytime I had to open Kik or just open a toast notification. WHY RELOADING THE APP?

Now I got used. I really think MS is going to change this in WP8 (6 months from now?), and really love the OS. I hate those icons scattered all around my screen, and tiles are perfect at my personal taste.

And Push Notifications works just perfect for me. Me and my brother are in same group conversation at Kik. When someone sends a message, we receive together. Actually, I receive first. One second or less first.. Same for WhatsApp.

And Push Notifications from WP7 are much more solid than Android; MS use a system pretty much alike Apple's. If the Push Notifications are not working in some app, you can put the blame on the developer or maybe your carrier. Like Facebook app there is a 15 minutes delay indeed, but this is how the notifications are meant to be.

I had an Android and I remember the freaking lag. Reseting it all the time, worrying about custom ROM, ASOP ROM, updates that was not coming to me, infected apps, and I wouldnt change the app loading for this again.

Relax and enjoy your new phone.. You have much less to worry about now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] imsparta:
From what you say I'm understanding that you go and open the app each time you get a new message, or you tap the notification so the app opens from scratch.

The app is actually hibernating if you dont close it (dont know the correct term).

-Open the app and go to a conversation.

-Hit the windows key to go the main view

-Press and hold the "back" button, move to the left and the app will be right there, select it and you'll get your instant resume.

Push notifications works fine for me, WhatsApp at least.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Wyn6:
Just confirming what Imsparta said. Any Mango app will let you instant resume. Follow these very simple rules:

A.) When exiting any app you may want to go back to, exit with the Start Button (Windows button) NOT the back button.

B.) When seeing a push notification or toast, DO NOT tap on the app OR notification.

C.) Instead, hold down your back button until your app cards appear, then select the app you wish to return to.

The app will resume instantly with little to no load time at all and you can jump back in and continue where you left off.

Happy hunting.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sikodemon:
Yes this is all true and I am aware of the instant resume feature in mango, BUT:

Although a toast and/or notification appears at the top of the screen or on the app icon it still has not updated the message list within the actual app, so if you "instant resume" it still has to connect to the app server to retrieve an updated list of messages received which can take up to 10-15 seconds and can be quite painful if I'm in a 2g coverage area.

So in lamens: I'll see a notification at the top of my screen which also displays part of the message I've just received, and the app icon will have a notification symbol, but when I resume KIK it shows an outdated conversation until it "syncs" with the server.

....kinda sucks.

Don't get me wrong though I love WP7, just not this little crease.

Also someone mentioned windows 8, will this be coming to wp7 users or is that meant more for tablets/PCs?
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
I'm with you. Love WP7, but hate the multitasking. Specially when it comes about messenger apps.

And I mentioned Windows Phone 8, not Windows 8. Windows 8 is for tablets and PCs indeed.

I have a xperia ray mobile phone.

I wanted to get one of those spy camera applications so as to film undetected. I tried a couple. Best so far were ninja cam and hidden mobile camera IMO.

All have a problem, when I turn out the camera there is a bip(regardless if the sound is off or on).

Is there any app that doesn't have this problem?

Or any other way I can delete that sound, I don't really need it anyway.

Hi,

I have just flashed AOKP build 23 beta 2.02.

While the ROM is really great, I have one problem:

No matter what player I try, I can't manage to get HW decoding to work.

I searched around and seen mentions of this here and there but nothing conclusive.

Is it an ICS problem?

Has anyone encountered a player that works with HW decoding?

Are you sure you are using HW decoding?

Maybe it's a problem with the rom then...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smicas:
So I checked some more into this problem.

It turns out that dice-player does support HW decoding but only if I don't use the seek.

If I try to move forward, it immediately switches to SW decoding.

Anyone else encounter this?
