[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneabove:
What is the other name for the hercules? Also I'm considering the Sensation as it is a good phone and has some nice support and it's been out for awhile... But still looking :) also considering non-htc phones haha cause I barely use sense anymore anyways :P

Also should I try to wait until these new phones from MWC are out? I would like one with ICS XD

The Galaxy Nexus would be a no-brainer if it weren't for the fact that it doesn't have an SD-card slot :/ that's where I feel they messed up terribly..
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_Monsters:
Tmobile samsung galaxy s 2. Or the funny numbers at the bottom of my post.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_Monsters:
Newer phones are always around the corner. Just make sure you get to play with anything pricey first before you buy
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneabove:
I'm considering just settling for a 2011 high-end phone, right now debating between HTC Sensation and the SGS2

Though first I'm going to be seeing if I can send this phone in for repair... I am under a year, but it's gonna be a lot of work restoring it stock and then if I get it back returning to rooted ><
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_Monsters:
Good luck man
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneabove:
Thanks haha :) you think that the SGS2 will be a strong phone for awhile to come? You think development will last as long as it has on the Desire Z?

I found one that is apparently "Fairly good" condition for 300... if there's nothing wrong with the screen I may jump on it haha :P
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
I think the htc one s is going to be a really good phone that will last u a long time. It comes out in april so u gotta wait a little longer but its got the new dual core 1.5ghz s4 snapdragon processor which competes and even outdoes the tegra 3 in some categories. I know that its still not the top of the line like the one x which only at&t is getting but its still amazing. Also its got a sick new camera check it out on engadget. It comes with sense 4.0 but u can just get cm9 for a pure ics experience

Edit: just read ur comment about no sd card. Unfortunately this doesn't have one either but I think the one s has 16gb internal could be 32 look it up BUT it does have a free dropbox service for 2 years giving u an additional 25gbs
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneabove:
Yea the one s definitely looks VERY appealing but its a bit expensive and a large problem is the wait time :/ I mean I guess I could try... XD But if they don't replace this phone I'm not going to be able to wait for that as I'll need one now for every day.

Yeah quite frankly if I can hold out I think I would definitely go for the one s or one x, actually the X seems a little TOO big for me, sadly though does have a lot more storage and that bigger battery :/
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
That smaller battery in one s doesn't make a difference b/c it has a smaller display and a lower res (not true 720p) than the one x. Screen takes a huge amount of power that's y the battery is a little bigger in one x. I even thought the 4.3 was a little big lol my bro has the nexus s and I don't think I would want a display bigger than that. Not sure how much the price will be tho, maybe $250?? Newer high-end phones are breaking that $200 bar we're all used to. Honestly if I was u I would try and wait for a newer phone (i.e. one series) if ur gonna shell out a lot of money cuz the new specs in a month or so are gonna far out date anything that's out now.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneabove:
Yeah I think I'm pretty much sold on the One S, and yeah I realize that the smaller screen will mean less battery use but just not sure on if it would account for all of it :P

However early rumours of the costs of the phones are putting them in the range of 700$ :/ I REALLY hope they are wrong! Anything under 600$ I think I would buy the One S :)

Yeah the 4.3 might be large but I think I'd be able to get used to it, especially with how pretty those 4.3 inches are :P
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneabove:
So I figured I'd update. I sent the phone in after reverting to stock, but, I have to wait up to a month to get it back, and they were low on loaner phones so I have a 2 year old windows 6.5 phone >< garbage! Supposed to give me an android! So, I called customer support, and after a bit of talking and such, they gave me 75$ towards the HTC one s ! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cougarten:
did you fix it? I have to do so now.... (cable from ebay and there is a youtube vid of the disassembly)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agazza:
I fixed my two g2's. Takes like 15 mins, just remember where the different screws where and don't cut the ribboncable for the keyboard when you open the phone.

Because that ****'s expensive :D

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DRSdroid:
OK, so i've been running a few different ICS roms and i notice that most have issues with VoiceSearch (or the mic in general in anything outside of a phone call) and obviously they all have issues with the camera.

I'm not too experienced but i know it has to do with the /system/lib or rather the libraries for ICS and lack of support from qualcom and htc. Is there any way to bring over the GB Lib (and even the GB Cam) into ICS?

I tried messing with it a bit myself but with no luck. I also notice ICS has a lot more files in /system/lib/hw that don't even exist in GB. Is this because ICS is using more "hw" (hardware) decoding so there are more "hw" libs?

Any answer would be greatly appreciated. Not looking for anyone to solve my problems, just let me know if you think it's possible ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crestofawave:
Ah crud, thanked instead of quoting.

Anyway, that would probably not work as these are two completely different operating systems. They have different frameworks, hence different libs, hence why it will not work.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DRSdroid:
perhaps for camera, but i've read of people doing it for the mic.. which is why i was curious. Actually 90% of the libs seem the same, its just the ones in /hw that seem to be the most diff
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
The andromadous v12 seems to have a working mic for voice search and other apps like shazam same with quattro these are the only 2 roms I came across that had the working mic
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortlived:
All of the lib files tell the hardware how to interact with GB, we need files that tell them how to interact with ICS. Its hit or miss what will work and what won't as some things in ics work the same as GB but others (camera, mic, videorecprding) don't. So don't expect support for devices like the G2 which htc has no plans on updating to ICS. Our best bet is to wait for another official release of some other phone that has similar enough libs to work. Imho
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legender:
:confused: I am looking for a to-do list app with following features for my g-note:

1) at the front/back of the to-do list, show what time to do it.

2) checkmark if the task is completed.

3) if the task not done on the planned day, it will show up next day. maybe with different color.

4) large widget size.

5) date should be customizable.

Anyone aware of such an app?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steveblue:
Why use an android only app. With the note, use a better highend Web tool like toodledo.com or rtm. I use toodledo and it is great and I can use it on any device. Apps are great, but one of the best things about the note is having no frustration with using pro Web apps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrawer:
Toodledo is great. In addition I use DueToday on my android which can sync with it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zamboney:
Toodledoo doesn't have a widget does it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endeso:
Toodledoo doesn't have widgets as it isnt an Android App. It's a web app and a backend, but there are several apps which sync with Toodledoo.

Right now, Play Store is announcing 2Do: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.guidedways.android2do

But there are lots more:

https://play.google.com/store/search?q=toodledo&c=apps
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webeestie:
I think Todo.ly has most if not all these features, and there is a neat little android app that syncs with the web service.

Above a certain number of tasks, or to get certain features, I think it's a subscription service tho.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steveblue:
Again I suggest you try toodledo first on your computer, then set it up as a bookmark on your phone. On the Note it looks great. Then if you like it, you can make it a short cut - and what do you know, something that seems like an app. Only issue is if you can get a connection. But that works on any computer device you want. Read your todo list on anyones computer if you need to. Apps are great but - I never use an app when the web will do. Same for me and google docs. I know then I have the cloud and the internet behind me. My phone dies, my data is safe and accessible anywhere on anything.

Side Note

There is a movement ( i generally support) where some folks call apple and android apps (mainly from large corporations) 'the anti-internet' - because many corporations are filtering the www world ( or own the ads) by making apps to stuff that is right there on the web anyways (a news radio station app for instance) but filters or dumbed down or controlled. They would love to get rid of the more open internet, and they worry that you might keep other windows open or you can ad block or click to other sites - so they want to filter and control you with there nice UI but filtered app. I love apps that do something, but if it is a refilter of the web - well I would rather put up for a slightly worse UI to get the real unfiltered internet. And of course with the Note ( size, pen, ...) it is easier to look at real webpages ( why I got it). google docs and toodledo are two examples of web over app.

Hey I have my Gio root and unlocked, I have installed CM 7, I have tried both and when I unlock my phone there is a 2 second lag before the lock screen shows up, is there a reason for this, is it because I am not using ext2?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Turn off screen on animation, may reduce it.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] koodiifin:
What do you mean when you say:

is it because I am not using ext2?

Do you have a second SD partition for Apps2SD/S2E? Or are you referring to your system partitions? Let me know and maybe I can help further.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ramzilla136:
Well I don't have my app 2 SD working on my phone the partook wizard keeps partioning my SD card into three the reason why I mention this is because I know by having apps on my SD card will make my phone faster and therefore b the solution to take out the two second delay when I unlock the phone
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ramzilla136:
Hey I have successfully installed app2sd however it does not take away in the delay I see everytime I unlock my phone.
[Dell Streak 7] ArthurJGuy:
I've seen multiple methods of dock mode being triggered on Android devices recently. Some are using multiple magnets and some are shorting out pins 4 and 5 on the USB connector.

Can anyone elaborate on how it is activated on the DS7?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
It's triggered by bridging some pins on the Dell 30 pin connector.

I dont know which pins they are (as the connector is mostly undocumented, or just as much the 3rd party connector makers havnt documented it) but the pins might be for that specific purpose.
[Dell Streak 7] ArthurJGuy:
I would love to know which pins they are if anyone does know.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] votum:
Cant find an answer for my question:

I am reinstalling some ROMs. Came from Captivate a few days ago (dropped in in the toilet and didnt think it would come back to life, it did lol, after i bought an infuse)

When flashing captivate roms the return to stock odin/heimdalls also format your sd cards, I noticed when returning to stock on the infuse my sd card is still full of crap from the last rom, how do I go about fixing that, can I just format it in CWM or will that ruin ROM install, as I had to modify the 3e recovery to even get CWM on?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
sdcard will format if you do reset phone in the phone menu /settings/privacy/reset

you can also format what you want in cwm
[Samsung Infuse 4G] votum:
Thanks for the answer mate, just wanted to make sure formatting in CWM wouldnt ruin anything, like CWM lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
So...I formatted the SD card in CWM, but now when I try to install any rom after running Heimdall One-Click, I can't get past the SAMSUNG logo screen. I get the robotic woman's voice saying "Convert data partition. Not enough space on partition." Then the phone just boot loops from there.

I can run Heimdall all day, but I can't install any roms. I can't get Odin to work. I guess I need to set a partition, but I'm not sure how to do this or what to set it to.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
try flashing the heimdall 1 click once.

Then afterward, click the boot loader box and flash again the second time.

Robotic voice is voodoo ext4 file conversion. The heimdall 1 click return to stock has nothing to do with voodoo file conversion.

If you have corrupted partitions, you need a full re-partitions.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
Thanks qkster. I tried your suggestions, but I'm still getting the same errors. I suspect I have corrupted partitions (or missing partitions) since I formated SD card in CWM. How would I get full re-partitions?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
If you flash heimdall 1 click, it will re-partition your system file.

I don't think it does anything to your SDCARD or external microSD card.

Are you able to get it to boot up on ATT stock?

If you flash with heimdall 1 click and bootloader, you should be able to get back to att stock.

when you are able to get into the ROM, you can try going to menu /settings/privacy and reset.

Then you can go into DL mode, flash the kernel, reboot into recovery and perform file system changes.

In the voodoo: convert lagfix to on (for custom rom) off for stock rfs.

the file conversion toggle should be ON.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
I realize that Heimdall doesn't do anything to either SD Card. It's actually working great in my opinion. My problem is that my internal SD Card was formatted (stupid move on my part) in CWM and now, it's basically a blank slate. I can run Heimdall and it boot animation starts up, but then it begins to boot loop after the "Rethink Possible" screen in the animation. I can't get into the ROM at all.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
:confused:

sd619...Can you tell me step by step what happens when you put it into DL mode and flash the heimdall?

Go through the whole 2 flashes - with the second time with boot loaders checked.

I think that no matter what you did to the internal SD card, once the heimdall runs the second time, with boot loaders, it will re-partition all the dev blocks and place the sbl, sbl2, params, dbfactory, kernel and modem in the appropriate allocations...assuming that the heimdall you have is not corrupted.

It will reset the file system to stock rfs...there shouldn't be any voodoo conversion until you flash the entropy kernel

...we are also talking about uclb3, correct?

if it doesn't work on repeated trial, and you are sure you have a non-corrupt software, it may be hardware.

If you want to try odin - gtg's unbrick - you will need to use a different usb port and re-install drivers or use a different PC
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
Yes, I'm using UCLB3. Here are my steps:

DL mode

Heimdall Flash

Disconnect USB

DL mode

Heimdall Flash w/ Bootloaders

Reboot

Boot loop during animation
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
If you take out the battery and put it back into DL mode and flash the kernel in the next step..what happens?

edit: oh...idk if it makes any difference but could you take out the microSD card if you had 1 in and try it WITHOUT the microSD?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
I tried that as well. I went back to DL mode and flashed the Entropy DD Kernel. This allows me to get into CWM. If I don't boot into CWM, the Samsung logo appears and the voodoo voice tells me there's not enough room in the partition. Then the phone boot loops from there until I pull the battery or boot into CWM.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
ok..if you get into CWM, click on the voodoo menu.

What does it say?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
didn't think to do that...here's the info that pops up:

Voodoo lagfix is actually: enabled

next boot: enabled

Options:

/system lagfix conversion: yes

debug mode: no
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
try disable lagfix...next boot should say :disabled

change system lagfix conversion to : NO

then reboot

if that works, when you boot into rom: reset

get back into DL mode and reflash the heimdalls again fully
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
I was hopeful, but that did not work. I'm still boot looping during the Samsung logo. I also tried to turn on debug mode in the voodoo menu, but it didn't seem to change anything either.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Alright.

Last attempt:

go to Mount and Storage:

Format boot. Format system. Format data. Format Cache. Format SDcard.

/system: should read: unmount

/data: should read: mount

/cache: should read: unmount

/sdcard: should read: unmount

/sd-ext: should read: mount

go back: reboot recovery.

go back to DL and reflash.

I don't know why your partitions will not erase as it should.

I have not seen this before.

If this doesn't work, you may need to try Odin on a different pc.

If you need to warranty the phone, change the settings or flash it in a way that it will only have samsung boot loop and no recovery. It would not be wise to have a red recovery and try to warranty it...needs to be on stock blue recovery.

good luck...

let us know if you ever get it sort out.

thanks for the mental exercise. :)

edit: there was 1 time I got hung up in the cwm and boot loop switching between stock and custom kernel...it was being more difficult than usual but mine sorted out after I did some toggles of voodoo menu and reboot recovery and was able to fix it flashing the heimdall packages...

It may not hurt to try Adam's original UCKJ4 packages also...idk
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
That last ditch effort didn't work. I can get to blue recovery from Adam's original UCKJ4 right? I've used that Heimdall package before. I don't even know if I can still warranty this phone. Does it have a 1 year warranty?

I'm going to try to Odin on a different PC when I get home. It's frustrating because it's NOT bricked. I hope to have some better luck with Odin tonight.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
good luck.

Blue recovery when you flash only the ROM portion. Red recovery and voodoo when you flash the kernel over the ROM.

Warranty should still work.

Fig it out...you hangout in the Q&A section this is where the action is...in the trenches...:D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sd619:
qkster, I got home yesterday and tried gtg's Odin method on a different PC. That actually worked! I was able to get up and running in no time. Odin had never worked on main laptop before and I'd always only had success with the Heimdall methods, but I'm glad it finally worked for me last night.

Thanks for your help and the various troubleshooting suggestions. Your a really good person.

Thank you.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Thanks for getting back, sd619.

I'm learning everyday.

I've always used hemidall as well. However, there are a few situations that I think Odin may re-partition a phone differently from heimdall.

When I get a chance, I will check over the PIT file Gtg uses vs Heimdall.

I would think they were the same....one more thing to do. :)

I'm glad you got it back, though. You may need to install the heimdall with BL's because I think the froyo re-partition takes out the GB BL's.

gl
