I live in China but I imported my phone from the UK. The only thing I'd buy from here is a one way plane ticket to anywhere (assuming it's with a foreign airline).

Even with an imported phone I have trouble installing some apps. I have to use market enabler or find the apk through google and then use the market to update the app. Some apps like whatsapp wont appear on the market sometimes, but you can download it from their website.

for some reason when i flash cyanowiz and get it all setup when i try to use titanium backup to restore all my apps the backups dont show up i have used titanium backup on all other roms and it works fine is this normal for this rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BaconStep:
Its something with cyanogenmod roms. I forget why it does that but I think its something with the sd cards and internal memory. Im not too sure on that
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mbucks911:
is there any way to do some kind of restore?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jnewell05:
I believe it s because it mounts the sd card and internal memory backwards or slightly different Go to titanium backup and hit settings and locate the other location. Ones emmc and other is internal sdcard.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
You use file browser and swap titanium file from internal to exrernal cm roms integrate a2sd i believe that's the reasoning

If you decide to re-root your phone download APNsBU and back up your APN before flashing something then just restore the backupped APNs worked well for me when mine wasn't working
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattj7:
So out of curiousity I backed up all of my apps using titanium backup and installed the new MIUI Rom based on ICS. It kept crashing because for some reason the internal storage filled up. Now I re-installed CM7.1, but my internal storage is again almost full.

My question is, what can I do? I moved ALL my apps to my SD card before I even installed MIUI and before I installed MIUI, I had 170mb free. Actually while typing this I realized that I guess MIUI didn't remove CM7 when it installed or something... hmm. Anyway any help is appreciated, and be gentle this is my first post.

Also android.process.acore keeps stopping.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1newbie:
did you wipe data/factory reset,cache and dalvik cache atleast 3 times before flashing new rom???
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezdi:
Do it 4x, just to be sure :)

Each apk (program) on your system has a corresponding entry in the dalvik-cache that gets generated from the .apk. If your storage (/data) filled up things are going to be broken in all sorts of ways, including the inability to make the dalvik caches. Since you didn't format between ROMs, you'll also run into permission issues and settings that don't make sense in the new ROM. Cyanogen uses an alternate location (/cache) for the dalvik-cache for system apps, I don't know if MIUI does, but that could be some of the difference in space. Duplicating data for the same .apks in different ROMs could've also filled up your space. It's best to format all the phone partitions to not worry about this stuff. Usually you're safe not formatting /sdcard, but some ROMs are picky. Some ROM install scripts don't format /system and that leads to BIG headaches. If you format all the partitions, then you don't need to worry about clearing user data/battery stats/dalvik-cache because that was already handled when you formatted the storage that contained that data.

tl;dr: Fix permissions after installing a new ROM. If the old and new ROMs are different enough, everything will still be broken because you made the android gods angry. Sacrifice (format) /system, /data, and /cache (and sd-ext if you have it) *before* installing the new ROM and things should be fine.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
Haven't used MIUI for awhile, but didn't think it had an ICS version. There is one in XDA, but it is not stable and I think requires blackrose hboot and differnet partition sizes for hboot. It also runs a2sd on reboot i think?

CM7 uses Dark Tremor beta4, that's what I use. It needs flashed after rom and scripts run to move apps. Check out their site

As suggested format all including system and format sd card with sdformatter, full erase and size adjustment on and set up 1gb ext 0 swap

copy sdcard and have a good nandroid first
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1newbie:
MIUI has both blackrose and non blackrose version of ICS :)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoeNeXus:
I've tried the latest versions and both br and non-br ones seemed have problem with data connectivity. Some others have experienced the same. Thought the dev's investigating it. But, previous version, i.e. 2.3.2, worked fine.

Try non-br 2.3.2 with 185/85/166 partition layout, that was great.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] genecor:
Having similar issues with ICS MiUI which really seems rather unstable (v2.3.2), and going to flash the latest update from a few days ago (v2.3.9).

Any suggestions on how to deal with some of the stock MiUI "bloatware" that comes with it and seems stuck on the system ROM? A2SD is supposed to be enabled, but unless stuff I dowload off market/play or restore is deemed systems apps, which I doubt is the case, I can't seem to choose to move them to SD card or in this case the "USB Storage" (Sorry, my postcount's too low to post on the actual MiUI Dev thread)

Also, as a sidetrack, does anyone know how best I can sieve through my contacts storage/DB? recently I think i might've accidentally synched with my FB countacts and it seems to have bloated up to 16-18+Mb which is alot from the previous 10-12Mb or less from what I recall. Is there an app or something to help 'manage" it better or do I have to manually go through and get rid of excess contact info on the phone or from my Google contacts list?

Thanks in advance for any advice you guys might have.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CKal:
Well, I'm a noob and I haven't reached the 10 posts threshold - else I'd have posted this at JH's thread.

Anyway, lemme get to the point.

I have come across with a few problems after installing GingerJH v4, on Alfs-08-CM7 kernel.

- Unable to view contact - solved by copying InfiniteView.apk from GingerJH v3.

- Can't find Market/Google Play - solved by copying Vending.apk into /system/app/

- Unable to turn on and off Airplane Mode properly without rebooting.

- Wifi didn't work at first - solved by full wipe.

But now that I can connect with Wifi, it seems that the webpages load agonisingly slow.

Just wondering if I could get some help, or fixes here. Thank you.

"Sketchit" is also a good game on the note. Its like isketch or pictionary. The S-Pen makes your drawings look 50 times better. Plus playing on a large screen makes everything that much easier (faster typing / more room to draw). It definitely takes advantage of what the note has to offer. I recommend it.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] GrandAdmiral:
I tried searching for this with no luck, but does anyone know where or how I can add drivers to the Flyer (rooted, with HC)? I have an HP wireless printer (4700 series) but am unable to print from the Notes app because the printer is not supported. Any assistance is appreciated.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] CCallahan:
I use PrinterShare for printing from all my mobile devices. Gives ability to print to remote printers or direct print to hardwired or wireless printers from about any app. Works well for me and the best thing I know of unless your printer has an Android app available.

Might check out Printbot as well. Not sure if it will work with your printer though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
Doesn't answer your original question, but if you are just trying to print info from Notes, why not just open Evernote on your home computer and print from there?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] GrandAdmiral:
I have PrinterShare installed as well but didn't know I could print from the native Notes app with. Will have to give that a shot.

That was the issue: I wasn't near a computer at the time but was connected to a wireless printer.

Wish there was a way to support more printers in these apps.

It's official: T-Mobile will rolling out HSPA+ on 1900MHz PCS band and LTE on 1700Mhz AWS band.

What does this mean? All of AT&T current Windows Phones will be compatible with T-Mobile HSPA+ network. What's more, the Nokia Lumia 900 and HTC Titan II will be compatible with T-Mobile's LTE network in addition to HSPA+.

For those of you waiting for high end Windows Phones on T-Mobile and don't want to be stuck with EDGE/GRPS network, the wait is (almost) over.

[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
This is because of the T-Mobile/AT&T Merger break up. AT&T had to pay T-Mobile $4 billion. This & the drop in 2G usage has allowed T-Mobile to use some of their 1900 band 2G bandwidth for 3G HSDPA+ & that will free up the some of the 1700's bandwidth for LTE. All hardware is pretty much in place, they just need to patch it with a firmware update. At least this is what I understand from an articled posted in another thread.

The band for 1900 is definitely supported by AT&T / World Phone right now.

I can't wait for this. I've always wanted the HTC Titan or Titan 2, but neither were available for T-Mobile's 3G. Now I'll be able to just get an AT&T one. Still contemplating on waiting though to see what WP8 device show up. Hopefully a Titan 3 with SD Card slot, Dual Core, etc. I love my T-Mobile service & price. We have 4 lines with unlimited Talk & Text + Unlimited 2G High Speed Data on 3 lines for about $250 a month after taxes & fees. AT&T would almost twice that & their data isn't unlimited.

at&t 450 min, unlim msg'ing and 3gb @ 4g = $89

Plus, t-mo is the only carrier that removes the increased cost of them subziding the phone when you buy the phone straight up. so if you buy the phone at full price, your plans are about $20 cheaper!

Transfer Mobile odin lite and i777 flash kernel to your sd card (I myself created a folder named apps for this kind of things)

Also transfer one of the kernels you want (Again, I created a folder called either kernels tar or kernels zip for these kind of things)

Go to your phone, enable unknown sources (In apps settings) install odin lite and the flash kernel through my files app or other file managing app you got.

Open odin lite, select kernel, select the kernel you put previously on your phone's card, then select flash firmware!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hramos20:
For all those flamers, for starters the walkthrough sucks because the names aren't specific for what they are supposed to be directed to. If you go to the Xperia X10 forums you would shut up when you see what a good walkthrough really is. Besides I didn't even think of looking into the custom binaries because I was looking for a link that would say something like "how to use Odin to flash kernels with CWM" and the "How to flash custom Firmware/ROM" link is wrong. So stop flaming and shut up if you're a smart ass who's been in this forum for a long time and thinks they know everything and don't want to help anyone. As I said I'm new here and I was great at flashing in my Xperia X10 which I suppose you aren't because you've never tried it, same as me on this forum.

Special thanks to Biporch for being so kind and talking his time to explain this as he did, not like the bunch of flamers who waste their time complaining instead of helping.

Anyways love my new phone!! It's like another universe compared to my Xperia X10. Amazing phone we all have!!!:D:D:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
A) if you thought this was flaming, you are in for a world of hurt - especially if this is going to be your reaction.

B) What you seem to mean is that you didn't have the patience to click though a few links in the sticky in order to be educated on what you needed to do. The reading wouldn't have hurt you and who knows what you might have learned that you could use later?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nessonic:
I am on the March 5th build of ICS from Quarx, and have only experienced this issue on this ROM, however I have not tried going to another version to see if it's something I viewed/downloaded.

Every once in awhile I get a notification, it looks exactly like a smaller version of the Messaging app's icon. The title says something like "Faster, Better" etc. and once I click on it there is an image of an ad for UC Browser 8. It only happens when I have internet, but all I can do is swipe the notification and wait for it to happen again.

There is a folder in the root of my SD card called Joy. Inside are three more folders: Cache, PopAd, and config. Nothing in Cache, PopAd includes the ADucweb_en.jpg image that pops up. In config there is dk.pro, popAd.config, running.config, and sys.config.

When I delete the folder, it reappears once the ad pops up- which seems to coincide with why I always need internet when the ad pops up.

Any advice on how to handle this? It's annoying and could be simply malware (AVG finds nothing wrong) but it seems to be a total breach of privacy and security that a folder is able to redownload itself continuously against the user's wishes. I'm unaware if this has anything to do with the person/people behind UC Browser 8, but I feel I need to contact them as well for malicious advertising by someone.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benroy:
I had these same notifications happening, and found those files too. After installing "Addons Detector" I found that these were coming from an app I'd recently installed called "Mission Impossible FREE" (com.letang.game109.en).

I wonder if there's a better way to identify the app that creates a notification. Nearly anonymous notifications seem like an easy spam vector. It'd be nice if a long press on a notification message gave identifying details about it's origin.
