Ok, I was having problems installing OC Roms until I did this!

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!

DONT HOLD ME RESPONSABLE IF IT DONT WORK!!

this is what I did and everything works

(with fully charged battrey)

1. Backed up current Rom

2. Wiped system/data, cache and dalvik

3.then I went to mounts and storage and formated boot , cache,data and system

4.rebooted in to recovery and installed .SENSE (do it twice yes TWICE)

5. then I installed OCkernel2.3.5 v2 by jikantaru

6.I shut the phone down and took the battrey out for 30 seconds and rebooted, and waited a little a couple of mins and I had installed .Sense:D

I also tried this with m1ndh4x8r rom and works great as well

Box giving away 50GB of storage with the new Android app

Just thought I would pass on a sweet deal. Box is now giving a lifetime account with 50GB of storage if you download and register the app from any Android phone. Here's the link to the marketplace:

Expansion of Cloud's memory

I am surprised at the generosity of cloud services. At first, they offered 2 gb with dropbox for free, then box.net and a few others handed out a free 5gb, then eventually one service - i forget the name - gave out 25 gb. Now Box (at box.com) is giving 50 gb of free storage space for free! I would act now, even if you don't need it now, it may be nice to have later. I am surprised that they can afford to give so much memory away. Where do they hook you at?
[General Topics] Crashdamage:
Box gives lotsa free storage but you have to pay for the desktop client. No Linux support. 100mb limit per upload. And ya gotta wonder how long they'll be around.

Fail.

Dropbox has free software, no file size limit and native Linux support. Financially sound, not going anywhere.

[General Topics] ArmorD:
There was(and still is) a "hack" that allowed you to get 50GB for Android phones. I did it accidentally two times, and now I have 100GB's. It is kinda stupid to give 50GB for free, because that means, we have could have basically unlimited bandwidth, and it would cost thousands for that company. :rolleyes:
[General Topics] Archer:
Actually, you don't need the official box client for either windows or linux. You can simply use webdav and connect/mount as if it's a local drive.
[General Topics] cajunflavoredbob:
Here's the full set of instructions for anyone who needs it.

For XP users:

1. Right click "My Computer"

2. Select "Map Network Drive"

3. Choose a Drive Letter

4. Type "\\www.box.net\dav" without the quotes

5. Box's server ping response time is kind of slow. Wait up to five minutes for the connection to establish.

6. Type your E-Mail for the username and your Password for password

Windows 7/Vista users:

1. Press the Start button

2. Right click Computer and hit "Map Network Drive"

3. Choose a Drive letter

4. Enter: "\\box.net\dav" without quotes in the folder box

5. Box's server ping response time is kind of slow. Wait up to five minutes for the connection to establish.

6. Username is your box email address

7. Password is your box password

EDIT: Be careful when doing this. Box's servers are VERY slow. Occasionally, they will lag so bad that Windows will time out several times on boot trying to connect it. If you boot up to a black screen with only a mouse cursor, reboot into safe mode, disconnect the drive, then reboot normally. I set the drive to connect on demand, since I don't use it for much. Dropbox and InSync are better services.

I've tried out box, but I dislike the having to pay for a desktop client. I've made the switch to dropbox and enjoying that! The only way I would fill up 50gb is with music and video.
[General Topics] Stadsport:
Got my 50gb, then switched back to DropBox after I realized it I wasn't able to transfer at more than ~17kbps with it. Explains why it took 2 days to upload my photo library (1.8gb) and DropBox had it within an hour.
[General Topics] cornishronson:
I like box I got the 50gb free purely from owning an xperia phone :-)
[General Topics] danxcook:
I took advantage of this just to get my music and pictures off of Dropbox and keep my storage size down there. Now I can get the 50gb plan instead of the 100, saving me $100/yr.
[General Topics] MissionImprobable:
Anyone know why it needs to read your Contact info?
[General Topics] Archer:
Probably just to share links or the app. If you're concerned then download LBE Privacy and deny it access. If you tell it to prompt when it tries to use your contacts then you'll find out when it needs it.

[General Topics] cajunflavoredbob:
I've never used the desktop client since you have to pay to use that feature. The connection settings I posted are just a work around for storing your files on Box without the desktop client. It is a pretty slow connection, though.

[General Topics] likwidoxigen:
Not a bad service. The sharing permissions for collaboration are really good. Once the Windows client gets better and they bump the upload limit to like 250mb it could really compete with Dropbox.
[General Topics] sushigeezer:

THANK BOX

[General Topics] cajunflavoredbob:
Ok, new information about connecting to Box's servers as I detailed earlier in the thread. I started getting black screens on every boot up some days with only a movable mouse cursor. After investigating the cause for several days, it turned out that Box's servers are so slow that Windows would occasionally time out several times while attempting to boot, causing the shell to crash. This would give me, as I said, a black screen with only a mouse cursor after logging on.

Disconnecting that networked drive from Box fixed the problem entirely. I have the drive set to connect on demand now, since I don't use it for very much other than easily transferring things between my Touchpad and PC. For everyday tasks, Dropbox and InSync are better services. I appreciate Box's generosity in storage amount, but it sucks that it's so slow.

I really don't get it. the TF101 is sayd to be the best selling tablet of all. The games where never compatible with it and now with ICS it seens that is getting worst! 'WT'+'F';?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ickk:
the same thing happens on tf prime, although some people have reported certain market versions still work.

what about ck zombies? When I go to install the download package on my Transformer Prime it fails... since tf101 owners may have it previously installed - does it work?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ickk:
Does it have official gameloft support?

In the Prime forums we're pressuring gameloft like we did with asus for their bootloader, they've opened a few games to us I think, just no mc3/o&c yet. Hopefully if we get a version it will work for tf101, since its apparent they won't release for the original transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] wilbur-force:
well it was downloaded from the market rather than sideloaded so i assume support.

Are you using the official version from the Market? Dead Space is officially compatible with the Transformer now. There is no reason to go anywhere but the Market for a working version.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akooot:
Hey guys!

I'm a quite cautious person when it comes to my personal belongings and especially when something happens to my dear Galaxy S. But I'm so tired of the lag and the annoying force-closes that I just want to mash the crap out of it.

Since I got 8 months left of my cellphone plan I can't/I don't want to buy a new phone, but i'd like my phone to act as a new one so I thought "why not flash a new rom" but the problem is that I dont find a good tutorial to do so. And also I am afraid of "bricking" it.

The only thing I've done is to root it using the Gingerbreak app, otherwise everything is stock.

Can someone please explain in a "newb-friendly" way how to flash a new rom, most preferably one of the "stock" ICS-roms. Step by step and with all the links needed.

Noteworthy:

Baseband version: I9000XXJVK

Firmware version: 2.3.3

Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWJVB

My opinion is: There is no 100% safe method, but I have flashed rom many times and I had only one problem when I was trying flash new ICS custom rom using CWM, but I think I made a biggest misteake - uncharged battery.. I guess.

I'm not an expert, but from my point of view flashing wiith odin it's more safe.

Guys, I am really now bored with my LG Optimus Black. It's now been SEVEN (7) MONTHS since I stayed on Stock Rom. I never tried and was afraid of trying to flash or change Roms. The only thing I did was to change launchers.

Now I'm really bored and I have now the courage to do this stuff but unfortunately, I'm a noob. I HOPE someone here could direct me or give me a step by step process on how to change make my OB look like a WP7 phone or an official ICS phone? Please?

[LG Optimus Black] Zaihanzainal:
im guessing you dont want to just theme your phone any longer.... i was the same with you up till abt a month ago and was also pretty confused but figured it out with help from the good good people in here =)

im just gonna put it in step by step

any detailed explanation and links to stuff can be found in Nooby's How To Thread so get your tools there

1) root your phone, most common ways are super one click or blackjack (blackjack only for froyo phones)

2) if not installed ald (with the root) install CWM and superuser

3) once rooted (and have CWM & Su), download rom of choice and place rom's zip file in sd card root and install rom of choice through CWM (check if the rom youre installing requires you to wipe all cache ie davik etc or factory reset, and follow accordingly)

4) once you do that done go through the OB Themes & Apps Forum and look for a compatible theme to the rom youve earlier installed

5) dl the theme of choice, place it in your sdcard root and flash via CWM

6) once flashed make another backup (what i do is take out the first backup file and store it on my computer *do not rename it, take the whole 'TitaniumBackup' folder* although not neccesary i do it anyway cos it makes it easier for me to identify which file i wanna restore from)

7) enjoy your phone

hope this helps.........
[LG Optimus Black] pl4za:
Thanks for the guide ! i was reading the "Nooby's How To Thread" but still had some doubts.

I want to install "Zeus v4.02b".

So, if i understood well:

1) root my phone depending on the version i have, since i have stock rom, Blackjack should work.

2)install CWM (as said in the "Nooby's How To Thread"), and just follow the guide to flash a new rom.

3)Do another backup

4) DONE !

misc:

Zeus rom already have a custom kernel included right ? so i don't need to worry about that?
[LG Optimus Black] Zaihanzainal:
Yup as stated in the Zeus thread, only install the alternative kernel if you have problems with the in built one, and one last minor thing, I don't think there are themes for the v4 variant yet, and have you read up on the Zeus thread? Best to see what are the minor bugs of v4 and how to troubleshoot them first....
[LG Optimus Black] pl4za:
i didn't knew that about themes.. but that's not a problem for me.

The only bug that i saw that will bother me is the LG notifications...

Do you recommend other rom ? I was going for nova, but it seems old and outdated (2.2). So i read this, and opted for zeus.
[LG Optimus Black] Zaihanzainal:
I won't recommend one over the other man, each rom has its own pros and cons, and I don't think its nice to do that :-P

Just try flashing one first,then when you get the actual feel of doing it, you'll be more confident about trying different roms and figuring out which suits you best

To a point its kinda addictive to me now lol... cos with every successful flash, feels like I'm getting a new phone.... :D

Oh and the notification bug is not all bad, I still get my notifications good enough
[LG Optimus Black] iamLance:

I've been asking help previously from some people here but unfortunately, I did not got any replies. Hope some of you here could help.

I was requesting to mod the Go Sms Pro application to look like our stock messaging. I tried to do it, but failed. I only wanted to change the Go Sms Pro icon same with our stock icon and change the name of it as Messaging.

I love the interface and the ability to customize with the Go Sms Pro but I dislike the icon. Can anyone here do it? Please.
[LG Optimus Black] Zaihanzainal:
K the way I do it is this, install a home launcher that supports icon changes and change the icon through there, I'm using go sms also and my icon is a bird I made myself hee try to look for my screenshots in the screenshots thread hee

I didn't do much actually man, just parroting what the ppl here have taught me, just don't forget to do the same for newer noobs that turn up over time hee...

One thing I appreciate after reading other forums on XDA boards is the lack of flamers in our OB forums :)

I'm using adw you can change it without using 3rd party launchers but I believe it includes modifying framework stuff and that is something which is way above my head..... for now..... :-P

How do i make a "wipe", and how many do i need to do for the zeus rom?

A wipe is just like a full clean right ?

[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
There are different "wipes" it means formatting a partition, to be short.

You need to make a full wipe/factory reset, wipe cache, go to advanced, do a dalvik wipe, and a battery stats is always good, if you install a new ROM. You can read all this in my NOOB guide, if you want to ;)
[LG Optimus Black] kingzain900:
BTW, if you're going for the Zeus ROM, flash v3.1/2n. It's much more stable than v4. (Unless you REALLY need the GPS fix). Huexxx is working on the issues so just wait :D
