Screebl pro. The most awesome app I have gotten from amazon app of the day. Hated it at first, but now I hate using devices without it. To get proper use out of it you also need Widget Locker, which disables screebl at lockscreen. Plus widget locker lets you customize your lockscreen to perfection. I don't need perfect security so I am happy with it.

Also screen filter. Another app that is perfect for our amoled screen.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arwany:
Hallo everyone here :),

Today I decided to install the CM9 on my unlocked Atrix (UK Orage).

I made a big mistake: I used a software called: "MiniTool Partition Wizard Professional Edition 6.0" to format the internal storage disk on my device and created following partitions in this order:

- Primary EXT4 2 GB

- swap 512 MB

- Primary FAT32 rest of the space.

After applying the changes I lost any access to the internal disk at all.

I booted into "Recovery" and connected the device using ADB and ran the following commands:

- adb shell

- fdisk -H 1 /dev/block/mmcblk0

And that was the result:

fdisk -H 1 /dev/block/mmcblk0
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1942720.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help):

I ran then the following command and got that result:

Command: fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0

Results:

Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 15.9 GB, 15914762240 bytes
1 heads, 16 sectors/track, 1942720 cylinders

Are you SURE you were modifying internal storage instead of external? I ask this because a partitioning tool MAY not recognize internal storage, in which case it MAY assign an index of "0" (e.g. dev/mmcblk0) to EXTERNAL storage. This is what happened when I pulled my SD card from Atrix, inserted to computer and ran GParted on it. If GParted HAD recognized internal storage, I presume that it would look like...

/dev/mmcblk0 (internal)

/dev/mmcblk1 (external)

And here is what I get for my healthy external storage (the Linux partitions are custom-created for dual boot --- normally you just have FAT32).

~ # fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk1

Disk /dev/block/mmcblk1: 15.9 GB, 15931539456 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1936 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

I hope this helps in some way.:)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arwany:
Thank you very much for your help, the problem is: I have done modification to the internal storage, as I deattached the SD-Card first, then connected the Atrix (at that time with CM7 from Atrix-Dev-Team) as USB Storage, so the software detected it, I made only SWAP&FAT32 partitions, then applied the changes, after that I didn't see my internal storage, and the Atrix can't access it anymore, tried to format it from my CWM, or CM7 or some other tools.. no success :(

I even tried to partition it using the same shell, but access was always denied.

Anyway, thanks for the info, and If you have some other helpful comments, please provide me. I appreciate your time with me.

Thanks

Hi people. By one mistake i've flashed a ROM to Samsung Galaxy SII on Samsung Galaxy Note. Now I need to recover it because I've not maked a backup (I know that was an big mistake). In Samsung Galaxy S I usually flash a good kernel with Odin and after that I flash a good ROM and it make the phone work with the old data but it don't was the binary counter like Samsung Galaxy Note. If I can't recover it without ODIN i think that I can buy a USB JIG for Note and put the binary counter to zero.

Any idea about what can I do?

thanks

Can you reach Download Mode? Press Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button simultaneously (press Power the last) and hold.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pauloallex24:
Yes, yes.

But I need a flashable kernel via Odin and I cant found it :s
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
OK, as long as you can get into Download Mode, we'll get you out of trouble.:)

Download this file.

Password : samfirmware.com

Extract the files from the zip in a folder on your PC. This is the Rom you're going to flash.

Then download Odin if you don't have it.

Then go to this post and follow the instructions to the letter. That's an easy guide for flashing Roms using Odin, with pictures and all. Your Rom belongs to

- If your downloaded ROM contains single file

part of instructions.

After flashing your phone, it will reboot. Sometimes your Note can get stuck in a bootloop at this point. If it happens, don't panic. Pull out your battery, wait for a bit, put it back. Put your phone into Recovery mode by pressing

Volume Up + Home + Power

Once in recovery, do a factory reset and reboot. Everything should be fine.

Once all this is done, you'll have a stock Rom. If you want to root it, tell me, and I'll walk you through.

Hope this helps.:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pauloallex24:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] nvus:
Got my g2x last week and the battery is horrendous. Seems like there's no way around it unless I root my phone. Don't really feel like rooting my phone because I have never done it before and don't want to brick it. At this point, I'd rather carry a replacement battery. I'm looking for something that will provide at least an extra 5 hours of use.

I was looking on ebay and found some that come with a charger and 2-3 batteries. Anyone know how long these last?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
I think it would help if you posted link to the batteries you have in mind. Unless all replacement batteries are the same nowadays.

But seriously, its not that hard to root your phone. And if you use the Bionic Reloaded v3 ROM, you'll get the official taste of Gingerbread, with great improvements.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
This phone is almost unbrickable, follow instructions (which seems to be the part that people have trouble with) and you'll be fine.

Also, I would reccomend the 3500 MAh battery mentioned in the accessory section, got mine from Texas and it works great, no temp sensor though.

The 3500 Mah battery will make the phone bigger, but you will be able to run for hours on end.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kusgan:
They are ok

Eversince I got my G2x about a year ago, I have been using a replacement battery. The same thing that you see in ebay. For some reason I don't feel like using the battery that came with it. They are ok. If they are not the same quality with oem, they are at most 8% lesser in quality than the oem. I have been buying extra battery on ebay since my G1 then my nexus1 then to my G2X. They are cheap and they are good. You can never go wrong with it.

I think having root access should be in every Android phone, its what makes it different from iOS.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Razorblood:
The thing with the bigger batteries, which I have and are amazing, is that you can't put a cover on them. I recently dropped my phone and cracked the screen since I was using the extended battery as well. I am replacing the glass myself but I would try a slim extended battery since you can use a phone case.

Andida 1980 is the one I'm using. It works well. I haven't tried the Chic batteries yet.

I recommend rooting as well as its super easy and Bionix is so much better than Stock 2.3 while still being stock 2.3 =D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rrroach:
Are you talking about the ones from a brand named Ferocity? I bought a set of two batteries and a charger and everything runs well. I believe the batteries hold just as much charge as the stock LG one. Still, I'd recommend rooting your phone and putting a custom Kernel onto it.
