thanks for the info!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
This is a great idea someone who really knows nothing or very little about phone development should heavily research BEFORE flashing or modding anything. If you don't mind there is a couple of things I think you should add to the op for any noob getting started....

1. Google is a life saver.. search search and search more. Info is power and can save you headache later. Keywords are important to finding what you are searching for. The wrong keywords equals wrong info. If your not sure what keywords to use then ask someone what should I search for if I want to do this or that instead of saying I did search and didn't find anything.

2. Know your devices model number. I727 is our devices model number never screw up and flash i777 just because its close. Remember close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades. A lot of bricks occur for this reason simply because someone didn't take a few minutes to learn the model number of their device....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] paranoiandroid:
Thanks

Thanks for the information. Have not bricked my phone yet, but I do like to try different roms. So far, have tried about 15 roms, finally stuck to one for 3 months now.. thanks :)

I remember the first time i got a bootloop and flipped out but I read and read some more to find my answer. This is my first xda post and i have been flashing roms for 4 months now. Btw my bootloop was from a bad dl.

Research when rooting or flashing is the way to go!

This is my first post in the XDA forums but I have been rooting and flashing for some time now and using several devices. The best advice, as the other users state is to research, read, learn, google, ask questions, read again, and learn to use the forums search option. Do your part and you will end up with a successful installation of a new ROM, that is until the next best thing appears in the forums. :D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flint420:
I have created a Black and Pink Glass theme for Go launcher that installs and loads fine. When I upload the theme to the android market and then its downloaded from the market and installed it installs as a .zip file instead of an .apk file. I have several other themes that are working fine. I have tried rebuilding it from scratch and the issue is still there. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have attached the android manifest.xml for reference.

Solved: Found out it was the copy protection setting in the developer console that was turned on by mistake. Turned it off and everything is fine now.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tw1tchy:
SOLVED

Well I hope my Nexus S didn't brick. Well I will start off with what happened. I've been running ICS Slim for a while and I noticed it started to become very buggy. Been busy for a few days so I havnt had time to fix anything. Well today I had some free time so I was going to just connect my SNS to my pc to transfer important files and pictures. My PC (Windows 7) kept giving me "USB Device not recognised" errors. I have correctly installed the adb drivers and have connected my SNS to the same computer. I also tried another connection usb cable to see if my original was defective but no avail. I also tried my netbook with both usb cords becuase I also had this SNS connected to the netbook before (Win7 Also) with correct adb drivers.... still nothing. I then go to rom manager download codename android and successfully install the rom. Tried everything again and still no connection. After shutting down the SNS and strating it again multiple times and trying multiple things my SNS went into "safe mode". Curious I thought there must be something wrong with some system files that don't get written over when a new rom is installed with a factory reset. I decided to turn off my SNS and turn it on one more time and I get this screen which ive never seen before.

It also says between Downloading.... and Do not turn off target!!!!:

USB Control Init

USB Control Init end

Please help because I need this phone for work and I cannot afford a new one... Just really hope it didnt bite the dust.

[Q][Help]USB Problems

I just removed my simcard and reinserted it again and my phone started normally.... weird...

But still at problem #1. Cannot mount usb. Windows 7 Still says "USB device not Recognised". My guess is that the usb port is broken. Its quite common apparently so i'm gunna see if Koodo will fix it.

Before I send it in should I go to a stock rom, stock baseband, and lock bootloader. or can I send it in with CyanogenMod 9?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sean1984:
go back to stock and lock bootloader so they wont void your warranty

Going into my settings, then, sound, then notification, i can't find songs that are on my phone. What am i doing wrong?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobby3306:
settings, -sound,- notification,- then Android system. Ringtones you've made should be located under there. However when making ringtones how you save em is what they can be used for, meaning once you make a tone and if you save it as ringtone it won't show up, has to be saved under notification ringtone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] debage39:
Try handcent. Worked on my epic 4g. Or try using whatever app u used to dl ringtones and set it via that app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GreggoryD502:
Try android ringtone picker. It works very well
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yoft1:
Android separates out your media and your notifications/alarms/ringtones so that way your notifications aren't cluttered with 1000 songs and your songs aren't cluttered with ringtones. If you want to use a specific song as a notification, go into a file manager and on your internal sd (not external) follow this path:

media>audio>notifications

and put your song in that folder. If it doesn't exist, create it. This way Android will put that song in with your list of notification sounds. Same goes for alarms and ringtones:

media>audio>alarms

media>audio>ringtones
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dan0zone:
Using your stock music player, find the song, select menu>set as .... and make your choice ....

Also .... there's an app that is as old as Android on the market that you can use to trim and set ringtones .... ringdroid ..... get it!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thhddd:
Hi I was trying to flash my note with stock rom N7000ZSLA2, the process completed for maybe 98% then failed with the error "Complete(write) operation failed!"

Now my note cannot get into recovery mode, and Kies wont recognize it, i can only get into download mode.

When I try turn on the phone, the screen shows "softward update failed" and the phone wont turn off. It keeps restarting and shows "software update failed"

I tried flash other stock rom with no success, I keep getting the same error "Complete(write) operation failed"

I tried different USB port and cable and restart Odin but nothing worked.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreww88:
If a different usb port and/or a different version of odin or heimdall doesn't work, I'm afraid you might be bricked and the only other option is to get the motherboard replaced at a samsung service centre.

I flashed the T-Mobile KL1 radio and I no longer have mobile data (wifi and cell connection work). When I go to Mobile Networks in Settings, it says Insert SIM Card. I flashed back to KID and still the same issue. I flashed the latest version of Synergy (since there was talk of the Hz tweak causing problems) and still no joy. I am without mobile data. Would restoring from a Nandroid do anything? Any suggestions? I'm freaking out here.

[EVO 4G Android Development] suarezn:
Took the plunge. My impression so far:

- Settings and themes seem to work OK now.

- Battery life is about the same as with the other MIUI ROM Iwas using as well as with AOKP. They're all using the same Kernel so that explains it. Also note that the battery life is typically horrible until you calibrate it at least once.

- Overall it seems to work pretty good.

- Integrated Torch is still not working for me...and yes I know it should work, because I can use an App and it works fine.

- For some reason cannot install certain Apps (i.e. Bank of America, Scottrade, etc) and do not appear available on Google Play under this ROM. I wonder if it has to do with Google filtering out Apps that have not been updated for ICS...but that's strange because I've had these apps with every other ICS ROM I've used.

- I didn't even tried Netflix (figured it wouldn't work without the ICS missing drivers).

[EVO 4G Android Development] bkofman:
so far so good

Pleasantly surprised that it's more stable than I'd expected. Some observations:

- The default launcher MiuiHome was pretty sluggish, so I replaced it with LauncherPro.

- Froze a few times

- The camera worked for a while, but then the "preview" area went blank. Had to reboot to fix it.

- Panoramic shots are tinted green.

- A bunch of my favorite apps aren't compatible with this ROM, according to Google Play/Market (e.g., OS Monitor, Weather Bug, Google Goggles). That's probably my biggest issue so far.

Looking forward to the next release!

[EVO 4G Android Development] Legendary20:
Black Ice is a nice dark theme
[EVO 4G Android Development] ECrispy:
Is that in Theme manager online themes in v4 also. I've used Black Ice on MIUI GB?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
Calibrate your device for ics and things should be smooth. I was wary of HWA.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Exleh:
Tried it out, I really like it. I probably won't be keeping it for now, gonna go back to GB, but it is very nice.

Here are the things I noticed:

Themes app crashes 90% of the time, and the themes aren't really compatible.

Camcorder crashes

No front camera support?

Very clunky at times

Other than that it is excellent, works better than any other ICS build I have seen :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jaimemex:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
Might be due to lack of hwa, I plan to implement it in the next build. no eta as of yet. I need to clean up some of the files etc. it's starting to get junky. :p

edit: this was referring to version 4 MIUI 2.3.2 not MIUI V5 2.3.16
[EVO 4G Android Development] woshiweili:
Unfortunately themes built for GB will not work with ICS and almost all existing themes were built for GB.

AFAIK no ICS MIUI builds currently support ffc on EVO 4Gs.
[EVO 4G Android Development] souleman:
Don't expect FFC on any ICS build until at LEAST they get to beta stage, and most likely not for a while after that. Until someone that knows enough to write drivers for it decides that it is higher on the priority list, it won't be happening. Because right now, the people that might actually have a clue on how to hack the drivers to make them work are busy with other things that are much more important, like adding HWA and fixing FC issues.

Sinistertensai does some awesome work on ROMs, and I'm sure he would agree that even this is still more late Alpha stage then Beta. And from what I've seen of his work, he is excellent at software hacking, but unless I missed it somewhere, even he doesn't have the ability to hack gingerbread hardware drivers to work on ICS. And if he does know how, you can see all the other issues he is dealing with to get this ROM to stable Beta before dealing with the FFC.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
So Sinister as of V5 2.3.26 build HWA is built in now right?

Loving your work on this and im about to give it a whirl :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] ZzHacks:
SO this has hwa :O
[EVO 4G Android Development] ladle3000:
I think he was saying the reported bug was v4 and before. Don't think hwa is here yet
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Yes, it is, according to SinisterTensai himself.

From MIUI.us:

Edit: Apparently, you're right, ladle. There's no HWA in v5. I just installed Chrome, and it doesn't work. Plus, I flashed the newest Tiamat kernel, and it made the ROM unusable, which only happens when there's no HWA. I thought HWA actually worked because it's a lot more responsive than any previous MIUI v4 build I've used and because ST said it was enabled.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
About HWA

First off my apologize. The base I used for V5 I thought had HWA, turns out that it did not. I have not had the time to build ics from source but hopefully with a build bot I can achieve this. What the build may have is partial HWA it seems to be more responsive however, as for FFC that will be a while till available. Do note that this is a an alpha project (almost near beta but it will take some time) as for gingerbread wrapping it works for somethings for others it does not.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ladle3000:
who's miui ics is on rom manager. Is that this one or snyper?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
If the icon (on rom manager) is this then it is mine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
I'm sorry if I sounded critical or anything. Like I said, this is by far the most responsive MIUI v4 ROM I've used yet, so kudos to that.

I'm sure you're experienced enough to build your base from source, so if you want to do that, go ahead. However, I would suggest just using a current Deck or Evervolv ROM if you'd like to save yourself the extra effort. Obviously, you know what you're doing, so I won't about you any more than that.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
No harm no foul. I honestly thought that the base had hwa built in just not enabled, chrome is working fine for me. no lag no issues etc. I would build from source but then the release dates would stretch far (monthly most likely). also booting over to linux is a pain for me (shared pc) and Im the only one in my house who understand Unix/linux. pspunderground and I (he has a build bot) will be working on a HWA enabled base.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tony_2018:
loaded rom last night, so far 5 reboots, 4 of them were this morning 2 simultaneously. Weird cuz I wiped my evo completely.

edit: but without a doubt the battery life is VERY excellent!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Legendary20:
Yeah It is. I found this theme called ICS Rob Minimal or something like that. Its a nice black theme. Search ICS in the theme app and it should be the only one that shows up. At least thats how it was for me.
