i really LOVE this rom, its amazing fast and nice!

but i never get good battery usage with this...

someone could help with a custom kernel

or some app that saves battery??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shreedhan:
Love the ROM, this will be my first day of trying the battery out, will let you know how I get on.

Only gripe is that Music player doesn't look like ICS style, any ways I can get this?

Hey dude, CM9 is so much updated since the release of the latest build...

can you update a little??

thanks for your effort!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] koudd:
Update with what? The reason I wanted to make this rom is because I think CM updates too much :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tasty_boy:
yeah, i think it too...

thats why i choosed your rom!

but seems that some updates are being done last days, sometimes

it seems that you didnt read this thread lol

sorry if im wrong!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] samgalaxys2:
Can you post a link for the .tar files so I can flash with odin
[Galaxy S II Android Development] koudd:
I follow cm9 work but there has not been any major changes specific to galaxy s2 for a while. I also read this thread, but quite often the questions that come up here are things I can not answer so I just hope other users will be able to help :)

Sorry, I don't know how odin flashing works so I am not able to create such files. My suggestion would be install cm9 first and then flash this rom from cm9 recovery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gvoima:
Yeah this rom is great as it is. But the reaction time to touch is too long and makes the use awkward. SGS2 settings sensitivity doesn't help.

I mean that, I have to move my finger nearly a centimeter before it starts/reacts to scroll and this makes flicking very hard.

Didn't get the chance to test it with the touch sensitivity patches. If anyone did and have this problem, did it help?

This is a known problem also on samsung roms.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] koudd:
It is not that bad for me but you are right sensitivity is a bit weak. I will probably try and make a update this weekend with some kernel patches + the gps patch recently added to cm9.

Until then however I see no reason why you wont be able to use this rom together with another kernel like siyah or cm9 kernel that already got sensitivity patches.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gvoima:
Good to hear about the GPS patch! :)

I could try another kernel you're right, but I think I'll just wait. So much work that I haven't got the time to even use my phone on several days (separate work phone).

Other than this slow gps fix and slow swipe response, this rom is nearly perfect.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] samgalaxys2:
Koudd could you please post a thread on how to root this ROM.

It's my favourite ROM, the only drawback is it doesn't have root.

I've tried everything to root it.

Hi,

I am searching for latest O2 branded firmware but as Multiupload and other hosting sites are down now. How can I get the latest firmware.:confused: Kies in my computer also shows me a new firmware but when I update with Kies, it does all the process of downloading and installing but after the 100% completion it reaches back to the same state showing a newer version is available.

I will be grateful for any help either by giving me any link to download the latest branded firmware of o2 or to help solving Kies problem.

p.s. I have tried samfirmware.com and also CheckFus but those firmwares are corrupted and they stuck in the middle of installation.

Thanks

Odd branding change. If anything, I figured it would have been "Google Market". Going away from the Market (Marketplace) name could be a bad advertising drawback, as ads mention "Google Market(place)" specifically.

Not a big fan, but I guess it is their apps that we use.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
SALE ON APPS HERE!!

Google Play APKs here.

Okay so Google has changed a bunch of their apps adding the word "Play", seemingly NOTHING has changed except the addition of the word. Best I can tell it is an attempt to make people aware of their cloud services, which have been in place for a while now. They even changed the "Android Market" on desktop to "Google Play", so pointless. However, they are ushering in the change with a HUGE sale of some of their best apps for only 50c. And the "Play of the Day" is "Where's My Water?" for 25c. My suggestion is buy them all. I already had most of them from the 10c sale they did last year, which was a much better deal, but I picked up the ones I didn't have. Just a heads up.

EDIT: I just received this text from Verizon!

EDIT 3/7/12: Google Play has been pushed to me. Here are some pics..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
i picked up Camera Zoom FX. thanks for posting this, OP!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diSke:
I agree with you. But I guess that they did it because of the lawsuits with Apple.

Because of the "Market" word in the name.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
Nah Apple didn't patent the word "market". LOL.

I always thought Market is too generic for the app store and it can mean anything. Play is not awesome but better than Market, at least it's more identifiable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scar45:
Just noticed this new "Play" moniker myself too. Already raped my Visa with a hefty $4 to grab 8 games!

I love it when these types of sales appear...too bad I paid full price for Shadowgun back when it was launched...oh well, the new savings make me feel better!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kalavere:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cwoggon:
Seems to be a sale on certain music selections today as well.

Best $12.95 I've spent in awhile...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I dunno?. I have clicked the link several times. Anyone else 404?

Apple uses the word "AppStore", and they did sue Amazon over it. I dont think they won, but they absolutely took them to court, because Apple is a bunch of fascist Dbags.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Am I seein' double here? A quadruple post?

I bought Tune in and Shadow Gun. Own a few of the other apps on sale, purchased during the 10 cent sale in December.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I re-did the link hopefully this one is better!

As for the 25c "Play of the Day", "Wheres My Water?", I would say that is a fun game except Disney has pulled a bunch of BS as in excluding levels from the paid version that are in the free version, and then adding Valentines Day levels to the free version ONLY!! Obviously they want you to click on the ads. I have personally wrote them an email and wrote on their fb wall about this, they dont care, they have no intention of updating for users who PAID to support them. They only want you to click on their ads. assholes.

It seams as if the "Play of the Day" thing will be a every day thing now!! That is cool with me. Not quite the Amazon "FREE app of the Day", but I like the Android Market, err, "Google Play" uhm Market better than Amazon AppStore anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mwalt2:
Man I hate android's market sometimes. I installed TuneIn Radio Pro from GetJar's market awhile ago. Now it shows up in android's market as having been purchased (which I never did). I'd like to buy it today, but it says it's already purchased. Click on install and it get's declined because I haven't purchased it. I contacted google support over two months ago because of a similar issue with another app and they are 'still working to resolve this issue'. In another year or two, I'm sure they'll get it fixed...sigh. Just give me a delete button.

I guess I can use another google account, but that seems like a pain as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cwoggon:
Tethered to a

bad

3G connection while downloading all the apps I just bought and surfing other pages...a recipe for multi-posting.

It seems that the market has this problem with any 3rd party app store. I got SwiftKey X off Amazon's app store and even though Google's system says I have purchased it, I cannot get it to update. This isn't the biggest problem because I can just hop over to Amazon and do it that way, but it could be annoying if I ever decided I didn't want to partake in Amazon's services anymore...

Hopefully if that day ever comes this issue will be fixed.

I haven't really been watching Amazons FAOTD lately, but when I have looked it seems that the picks are usually not that great. I, for one, would rather have a discounted price on a good app then get a bad one for free...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
You'll have to uninstall the GetJar one first.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Had this problem with Osmos HD (got it in the "Humble Bundle" last month, but want updates from Market, err, ugh, Play). I uninstalled, cleared chache/data in Market, "broke" Market links with Titanium Backup, waited about 10 minutes and was able to purchase it on desktop. Hope that helps!:)

Agreed agreed agreed! And I would rather give 25c to the Android Market than deal with the Amazon AppStore. But just as an example.. Today's app "WMW?" was given away for free from Amazon months ago. Its actually really wierd, I LOVE everything else about Amazon.. Their cloud is the tits! UNLIMITED music in the cloud for $20/year. Their Prime service is double tits! Yes I am a homebody, and Ive been boycotting WalMart for years now. Their customer service is excellent, any time I have a problem and that is rare, but if I do they just credit me back the cost no questions asked. Their Free app of the Day is a really cool concept BUT the Amazon AppStore app itself drives me effing crazy! I dont know what it is about it I just hate it, yes I realize it just got an update recently and the notifications can now be disabled, but I just dont have any love for the Amazon AppStore app.:confused: I always kill it after checking the FAotD because I feel like it eats my battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
Apple did sue Amazon for calling it Amazon Appstore but Google's app market is, was called Market which Apple did NOT patent for it and did NOT sue.

Apple is just capitalism at its finest. There's nothing personal about all the lawsuits, especially after Jobs passed away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I think you are confusing capitalism and fascism. As for Steve Jobs I hear Apple is releasing an upgraded version this summer. Steve Jobs 2.0 will come with curley hair, a white turtleneck, and not wear "dad jeans".;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I just got a text from VZW and placed it in the OP. Its official.. The Android Market is dead. Google Play is the new Android Market.:eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] v8rumble:
Picked up Jamie Oliver's 20 minute meals. 50 cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mwalt2:
I don't have it installed currently. I don't think GetJar even have it available for free anymore. I can't even purchase it from a PC because it shows it's already purchased and not installed. It'd be nice to have a delete functionality like in the Amazon app store. I have a few apps messed up because of installing them from non-'play' markets. I'm not sure why there's only a few like this, but I suppose Titanium Backup may have messed it up by restoring it with a Market link. It just seems like silly coding to show the app as purchased and then when you click install, it says it's not purchased. It can't be two things at once...it either is or isn't :).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Exostenza:
Thanks! Grabbed 7 of them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Google pushed "Play Store" to me just now, I put some pics in the OP. the "Play of the Day" hasn't changed yet though.:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Truly hope that the POD sticks around, with quality apps available. Rewards frequent users and gives cheapskates encouragement to spend.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Agreed, I hope they start updating it mor frequently, or regularly or whatever. Its been WMW? for over 24 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrbig012:
Defensive!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I'm now asking myself, "Rob, why didn't you buy SwiftkeyX sooner?". The only logical reason I can come up with was that it wasn't $0.49 before.

Great app, but one I could have lived without if it hadn't been 49 cents all of a sudden, in which case, great buy.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Livewings:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jambamkin:

I don't care, i'm purchesing stuff for $.50 :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr. xp55:
sounds like a porno shop.

This is just Android's way of putting there name out there again, kind of like a fresh start, to get more customers. just a marketing and business ploy. There are no MAJOR changes to the site, nor the actual market, except Google Music is incorporated, and its just slightly cleaned up. They haven't even expanded Google Music internationally yet, which really sucks, cause I want it. I think Android Market just sounds better. Google Play sounds raunchy to me in my head. idk
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] levchikb:
Holy chit :confused::eek::eek: WHAT A STUPID NAME .... arghhhh

With that said, and I'm not alone on this - this is a horrible move - Google MARKET would be so much better, but...

Here is why I hate it the most:

We develop apps for android, so now I need to change wording on 20+ pages on my website, change MULTIPLE buttons, and worst of all - my average customer is TECHNOLOGICALLY CHALLENGED :D :D :D ... so they just learned what Android Market is and now this stupid play thing - really?

About tech-challenged customers - I AM NOT LYING - one wanted to take me to court because the Android app he purchased would not install on his iPhone :eek: ... seriously

So ... I know this is not gonna happen ... but Google - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE change it back!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kotoriii:
Dear XDA Developers community,

my father recently gave me his old HTC HD2. It had its factory default stuff. I wanted to download some apps and play around with it, so I downloaded some apps from the marketplace. As soon as I downloaded a free Sudoku game, and ran it, the phone stopped responding. I tried to do a soft reset, but the phone did not respond either (it was stuck at the menu).

Now, I may have done an error: I removed the battery, instead of performing a Hard Reset. When I turned it on, it started rebooting in a loop, being stuck always at the HTC white welcome screen.

I decided for a Hard Reset. Well, it always gets stuck at the bootloader screen (the screen with the 4 colors).

So, I researched a bit, and found out, you can return to its stock ROM, eve with a stuck bootloader.

Well, I downloaded many old ROMS (the Rom before the problems was a 1.66 one), and ran the RUU through USB. But it always gave me a Incorrect vendor ID error (I think it was 194), so the update would always stop at 1%.

I even tried a 1.43 ROM.

I tried many WWE version Roms, but they don't seem to work. My father bought the phone on Amazon US, with no special contract or phone lock, so I guess it has to be a WWE, so I don't know why the RUU says it's incorrect.

I have seen other threads that have some similarities, but my exact same problem has not been addressed.

I would be very happy if you could help me, since I do not want to spend any money on repairs which I could probably perform with help of the community :)

I would be most glad to give more information if needed.

Many thanks in advance.

Edit:

The issue was resolved by installing HSPL4 on it, and then using a WWE 1.66 ROM on it! Silly me for not trying that earlier!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
glad you sorted it, , to explain why it wouldnt work, you were not using the correct rom for that phone.

Your first clue would be the 'invalid vendor id'. An 02 phone (for example) will only take o2 roms, a tmo phone tmo roms, a voda phone, voda roms. Only unbranded phones take pure wwe roms, so for example

ruu leo htc wwe 1.66.405.2

see it says HTC in the filename? its for unbranded (not sold by a network) hd2s only.

I guess you have a branded one. (even if its been unlocked, the rom lock always remains, which is why we have hspl)

Incidentally, you only had trouble because you initially flashed from sd card, and step 1 in teh sd card flash is hspl gets removed, the phone restarts to continue flashing but because hspl is now gone, it fails. Had you flashed from usb teh first time, it would have worked.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kotoriii:
Thanks for the answer Samuel. I got the phone to work again, and I even loaded NAND Android from the DFTeam.

Although the ROM runs just perfect and I love it, now my Volume Up key has stopped working.

I could not post on the Development section, so I guess I won't bother anyone, and will just post it in this thread.

It is a minor issue, but it's still is annoying. I found on the forums problems with the key with other models, but not with the HTC Leo.

Maybe someone has heard of this. Again, thanks in advance!
