a diluted one. yes. commercial lcd cleaner also using similar chemicals inside their product. you can also use dish cleaner for a better result. body soap and detergent have different chemicals inside them. you should not use them to clean your lcd.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Accessories] MR4Y:
You can use detergent, but has to be biodegradable.

Also, it's highly recomend that you wash the screen with your fingers and not any type of sponge, which could and up scratching your screen more. Then you wipe it with a lint-free rag, like the ones that come with glasses or tissue paper.

The reason I ask is because I know what ics is like from cm9 but what is different why is it worth it to upgrade now.

I ask because I'm on calls 2.8.1 and el26 and its never been better. Just want to know if touchwiz is alot better now or just the same. Is the browser now the ics one?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sratwars:
its about the same...95%
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fataldesain:
Is the browser still with that big ugly grey bar. I'll wait for cm9 or something like it. I don't even know what I would gain by flashing those rooms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
you would gain bugs and problems
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Edit to more so answer the question.

What are the differences? Check out tw ics. Watch videos. There are plenty. Its touchwiz over ics. Looks a lot like touchwiz with ics bits. Lots of aosp apps can be loaded on tw though. If you want stability above all else, stick to gb.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fataldesain:

Hi

Well I was wondering since I'm about ready for my Tmobile phone upgrade, I wanted to know if the amaze 4G is a good phone to have. I'm currently using the HTC Wildfire S and I want to get it out of my sight. Please comment if this is a good idea to get this phone before I upgrade. Thanks :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] xxquicksh0txx:
Since you're so close to your upgrade you might want to wait for the One S.

If you can handle not being able to have a spare battery and SD card. You do get a s4 processor which should get better battery life and perform better also.
[HTC Amaze 4G] MrTaco505:
Yes but it's gonna be too expensive from the look of it. Also since the one s is going out, there is a good chance of the amaze prices to drop dramatically.:D
[HTC Amaze 4G] xxquicksh0txx:
Well I just bought an amaze today, have to wait for it to come. Im not on post-paid and I don't feel like dropping $700 on a phone for he One S.

I probably would've waited if I had a contract. The Amaze is great so I hear.. will know in a few days.

I think its really down to your personal preference, an little older CPU with a SD card and spare batteries. Or a new CPU with no spare battery and 16gb locked.

I was tempted to wait, but ended with the Amaze.
[HTC Amaze 4G] MrTaco505:
Thanks for your opinion. Looks like I'm getting an amaze :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] Violated:
I just brought my third amaze yesterday. Now my wife, daughter and I have one. Looked at a couple other options and weighing the pros and cons, the amaze came out on top, again ;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] ed116:
Amaze Hands down! i was considering Galaxy SII X but Amaze has better resolution, beter cameras (Front and back) even though its heavier imo it has a 'nicer' design. The cons are as follows:

-Weight

-Lack of Rom Development (We havent achieved S-OFF, and WIFI Drivers are a problem so i read)

-Screen Bleed at the capacitive buttons at the problem ... not a big deal its just at the bottom it will look brighter.)

-battery might suck on stock. For me im running stock and i get full 24 hour usage (phone calls, texting, tweeting, facebooking, browsing, music)

Pros: everything else
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:

[HTC Amaze 4G] ed116:

[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
bought mine from a guy on xda for $360 with box in new condition. only thing messed up is the vibration (it rattles). that's it though :)

I don't regret buying it at all, I like the heft to it. it makes it feel expensive. the only other phone I wish I would have waited for is the xperia s which isn't much of a upgrade. considering it has the same processor and same amount of RAM, only huge plus is that its playstation certified and the design.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrgwap:
Mine was 350 with contract but if I would've waited one more week it would've Ben free but I don't care. I love my phone
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Amaze is a good phone, battery life is horrible unless you flash a custom rom
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
$175 with upgrade... They tried telli.g me 275, but the loyalty dept gave it to me for $175 w/ 2yr contract
[HTC Amaze 4G] MrTaco505:
Thanks you guys:)

So I'm probably it's gonna be $175 with a two year contract for me from Tmobile,... hopefully :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmako777:
im on a value plan, so i paid $625 minus $225 rebate. after tax it was like $430 or something. decent phone, lack of development knocks it down a few notches for me tho. when the s3 comes out, this phone is history
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
you mean s4?
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
I think he means SG3
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
I love my amaze! Upgraded from the G2 so this phone is lighter compared to the G2. Ya support is low ATM but we have some good devs working on some AOSP ROM's. S-off is still down the road but I'm sure it will be obtained, once that happens and we have cm 9 running I'll bet people will be more interested in this device.

And I got mine for about 350 after the rebate and discount.

GPS Tweak

This how to can you help you tweak GPS

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17081413

Note the multiple GPS.conf entries you can have for country (Canada) as well as region (North America).

Darky ROM tweak

When installing Darky ROM you will find the buttons for home and back no longer work. There is a simple fix for this as long as you have a root explorer (like ES File Explorer) and a text editor.

Open up /system/usr/keylayout/melfas_touchkey.kl in a text editor.

Make sure that your 'keys' look like this:

key 139 MENU

key 158 BACK

key 217 SEARCH

key 105 HOME

key 106 SEARCH

Keep VIRTUAL as part of the keys and you will still have vibration as well.

Alternatively (Thanks [MENTION=3761721]finneginsfast[/MENTION] !) you can flash 'keylayout.zip' attached below from recovery.

Flashables (Updated June 29 2013))

This is reserved for flashables such as modems and kernels.

Ultimate Kernel Cleaner

Before flashing a kernel, you should run a kernel cleaning script. Matt (THANKS [MENTION=4265077]Matt5606[/MENTION]) gave me this one - it handles cache cleaning, etc. See the attached file for ultimate kernel cleaning script.

Modems

Lots of modems out there, and get Perka's file store for a ready list (see recommended apps). My favourite for a long while has been the i9000UGKC1 modem - it has GB versions as well as ICS - just make sure you get the right one!

You can also download modems diredctly from Perkas Site (/Samsung/ICS_CM_Modems/850_Modems_CM) or the android app (available in Play). Ensure you get the right modems for your ROM or Android version.

For Gingerbread: /Samsung/I9000/Modem_850_Enabled

For ICS and JellyBean: /Samsung/ICS_CM_Modems/850_Modems_CM

[MENTION=3761721]finneginsfast[/MENTION] provided me with this graphical link to help give you an idea of what modems work where: http://soggycashew.weebly.com/modem-location-map.html

Essential Files

Before we get started wanted to make available some essential files. These are from my public dropbox folder, so I may switch it in time, but felt they should be here.

Need to get back to stock, then here is the Stock Telus Froyo 2.2. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2069701/T959TLJL3.zip

Want stock with a CWM kernel on 2.2, then here is the VooDoo Kernel http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2069701/voodoo.advanced.v666.2-20110111-21.53.tar

Remember when flashing back to stock to tick the re-partition box, and place the files as follows:

- s1_odin_20100512.pit in "PIT"

- T959TLJL3-REV03-ALL-low-CL763100.tar.md5 in "PDA"

- T959TLJL3_FROYO_Phone-CL763100.tar in "PHONE"

- SGH-T959D-CSC-TLSJL3.tar.md5 in "CSC"

Additionally, Karma has some core files he is posting as well (Thanks [MENTION=1370138]karmatose[/MENTION] !!!) and you can find those files at:

To access the files, you will need a login. [MENTION=1370138]karmatose[/MENTION] or myself can make the login and password available to you.

Starting Fresh

Buck provided this a while back. This is recommended after many flashes and you want to start out fresh without lingering script files and other crap we're all guilty of installing/flashing :)

WARNING: This clears up EVERYTHING - even TB backuped programs - so if you want your TB backups, change your backup location to the REMOVABLE SD Card.

If you want to start fresh and i mean bare bones this is how i do it.

1. Remove the external sd card (the one you put in the phone)

2. Go into storage under settings and unmount then format the sd card (the partition the phone makes that you see if you do not have root)

3. Flash stock rom via odin and repartition ofcourse.

4. When you are done the phone will be like you just took it out of the box.

5. Backup the card you took out and format that. Leave it out.

6. Grab some beers and start flashing whatever you want (except the neighbors they dont like that)

T959D running 4.0.4 ICS

Hey guys, just wanted to share my experience with ICS on our t959d phones.

I've been running AOKP for a few months with icy glitch and the ol tljl3 modem. I'm very impressed overall as everything works! (In gingerbread I also used the TLKG2 modem)

To install it I used Odin to flash darkys jvh, and then in recovery I formatted everything and cleared all caches, and then transferred Aokp b31 via cwm USB storage. Then I flashed the rom and ended up in a boot loop as I forgot to remove the external SD card. Took the SD out, booted, and good to go.

I ran into a problem once when I wanted to reflash B31, in recovery I formatted everything and then forgot to actually install the rom! The phone went into a boot loop and nothing worked to fix it. No 3 button combo, no battery pull technique, and even the trusty USB jig didn't do it!

4 hours and 2 doobies later I had ADB set up on my Linux box and once I told it that I'm attaching a nexus not a galaxy s, everything went fine. I used adb to get back to recovery and from there I flashed the rom and life was good.
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
I'll have to take a look at that - be nice to mod the build.prop so the T959D is recognized in the market, etc.
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
Hey DJ - good to see you again - looks like you had a wacky experience. I've looked at Kang project stuff, but mostly for my TF.

I've noticed yesterday, my battery went to hell - but not sure what happened.

[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
Haven't done it yet - removed exchange this morning (Not ideal, that's my work stuff) but battery life was as expected after that (90% after 3 hours). What's weird was it was working fine for week, but recently got all fracked.

I just added it back to see if that causes a bad dip in things.
[Fascinate General] Canadian DJ:
It is...
[Fascinate General] koocheese:
I woulda suggested exchange as well.

I set up my hotmail on the native email app and it was sucking the life out of my phone, draining the battery and make the phone hot to touch.

As soon as i shut that off, back to normal.
[Fascinate General] jpmccarthy:
Yeah, seems to have sorted itself out... 47 % left after 12 hours :)

Might flash WEUI anyways :)
