[HTC Sensation] jriv:
I just picked up the one s today and I had the sensation. The one s is a beast the camera is amazing. And honestly the pentile screen doesn't bother me I can't even tell unless my face is like an inch away from the screen bit who uses their phone like that. And its so Much faster the devs here have done a great job with the sense 4 port but is not even close to the speed of the one s. It really is a night and day difference. And as far as storage I just use google play music and it stores all my songs without taking up space. I did love the development for the sensation but this one s is a beast.it really feels like a premium phone with the aluminum body
[HTC Sensation] crisisinthecity:
HTC did it for quality control. That's why Apple does it. Thats why any of them do it. Makes it easier to troubleshoot an issue if you can rule out another manufacturers SD card or after market battery causing problems.

A jacked SD card or crappy after market battery leads to more warranty repairs for them.

Hopefully there will be bigger storage and more external battery cases for new Android devices if the trend continues, which I think is an absolute certainty.

Good for them, sucks for most of us who want the option.
[HTC Sensation] hortaja:
I went to T-moble today to upgrade from my sensation to the one s, but NOPE. The pentil display was way to obvious for me. I love my display in the sensation. I could clearly see the pixles/blocks without trying. Now I have perfect 20/20 vision. It was just too obvious for me.

Now I knew about and was looking for it. IF I did nto know I might have missed it in the showroom floor, but after playing with it at home for some time it would have become very obvious. Once you see the pixles they dont go away. This was a major turn off for me.

The lack of SD no big deal at all for me. But the non removeable battery AND pentile display, I'll wait for a T-moble version of the One X or the next HTC product.

The offered me a free Samsung Glaxacy 2 or something like that but I love HTC and sense.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DutchDogg54:
Ok, I know this has nothing to do with the Epic Touch but I value all of your opinions about technology stuff.

I recently switched my primary email to be my Gmail account and since I did that I was going to try using pretty much all of Google's products since it makes things very streamlined.

In doing so, I switched from Firefox to Chrome on my computers. It's a great browser: love the themes, controls, add-ons; pretty much everything (especially once chrome on android gets ironed out and bookmarks, tabs, etc. are fluid between desktop and devices).

Unfortunately, there's a major kink in the armor I've found since starting to use Chrome.

Google's own websites are acting wonky!

Not all of them, but Google search & Google maps (two I use constantly for work) are acting erratically. See screenshot attached as far as the search problem. Maps is just really, really unreliable and slow. It will take 10-20 tries to get it to find an address, if it ever does. I'll open Firefox and it will find it the very first time, very quickly...same with the google search. It never shows the page I screenshot and is very quick and reliable on FF.

I'm confused and just looking for some insight from ya'll smart mofos.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattheyu:
Is it just those two sites, or are other Google sites affected as well?

Make sure you're using the Stable release of Chrome. (Settings -> About Google Chrome and make sure dev or beta is not after the version number.)

Have you tried swapping out your DNS servers? I tend to use Google's DNS servers. http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ (Let me know if you can;t get to that, lol.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jpkelly05:
Something might be messed up in your registry.

I had to change to Google Chrome from Firefox about 6 months ago because the Reg was all messed up and causing Firefox not to play any video, and a few other things. Yet when I started Chrome everything worked. Instead of trying to figure it out I just kept using Chrome. Haven't had any problems since. Although you may be using a Beta version also and don't even know it.

It took me awhile to find a decent program for checking the reg, so I would do a search on www.download.com for registry or registry checker.

ps I hate it when cheerios goes down the wrong side of your throat. cough cough cough
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DutchDogg54:
Thanks guys, I appreciate the input. I downloaded CCleaner and that got rid of a bunch of stuff, helped with google search a lot. Maps is still sucky though, but I am considering trying out the DNS suggestion at home first as a guinea pig then here at my office pc. I'll let you know what comes of it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hermeticist:
I'm having a problem getting to cyanogen mod Nightlies as well. Those pages just won't load! IE9 would find. Also AVG keeps blocking those sites and wont let me unblock them!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phpracing:
I use chrome as well, and sometimes when i go to fb, chrome wont load the feed. then i reload and it works. this happened on every fb page i would go to. go to firefox or IE and it al worked fine so i knew it was on Chromes side, maybe the way the script was wrote. anyways, this did this for about 2 months. i kinda got used to it. but then it updated and it doesnt do it anymore. BUT, since i installed linux and chrome for linux, now the chrome on linux does it again. was wondering if anyone else had this problem. i know this is about google services not working right, thought i would throw that out there. dont know if it will help or not (leaning towards the not). just my 2 cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Rajesh01:
Hi to all. Is any unroot.zip available for stock rom? Please help me .
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
no unroot.zip does not exist but you can unroot by removing "su" "busy box" "sqlite3" files from /system.xbin to unroot your device
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Rajesh01:
Hi Dhlalit11,by removing that files could I regain my warranty or not? Please tell me. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
you will get the warranty as you were having while you purchase the device but the device must contains a stock rom
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Rajesh01:
Does installing cwm also void warranty ? Please tell me. And thanks for your help .

Flash via odin..

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
the post have been edited

if you have downloaded any firmware open the firmware file with alphazip there you will see recovery file extract it then with alphazip create a .tar file and put recovery in that tar file then flash the tar file with Odin in PDA section you will get stock recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Rajesh01:
I have to say you sorry because neither i have downloaded any firmware nor I can use odin to flash anything because I haven't any computer,so please tell me any other process like above you tell me about unrooting .Thank you for helping me.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
He already answered your problem.. Do what he said using root explorer.. You don't need a pc to do this.. Uninstall superuser app I must add..

If you have cwm installed and you don't have a pc, then that would be a problem.. Not heard of a stock recovery flashable through cwm..

Hi , what is done by flashing cwm? I guess either it replace some files in system by deleting them or overwrite them . If someone knows about those files then we could get stock recovery back .or not?

And one question more. How to hard reset after flashing cwm?

The hard reset code *2767*3855# now not working.

Thanks for your kind help.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Rajesh01:
Can any one explain?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Rajesh01:
No one is explaining ????????????
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
please read 10th post of this thread for removing cwm

to hard reset go to recovery (by switching on the phone while pressing home+power button) then scroll up and down with volume buttons, scroll down to delete data and factory reset(something like this)and press menu button to select it

code will not work as it is now cwm recovery
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Rajesh01:
Hi Mr Dhlalit I have read that post and thanks for help. I just only want to know about the effect of flashing cwm on system files so that we can backup the effected files by root explorer .
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
can't tell that that because flashable zips have boot.img and Odin have recovery.img

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdan5844:
Hello and welcome to XDA! :)

First of all, you need to learn how to root your phone. This can be a tricky process, but you will find many helpful people here.

After you do that, you can install different Android versions on your phone, also called ROMs.

The 4.0 version of Android, known as Ice Cream Sandwich, is currently in Alpha stage, so you might want to wait a few weeks/months until it gets more stable. Until then, you can try many of the ROMs in the Android Development section.

I'll come back with some links to tutorials :-)

Edit: As promised, here are the two guides which I consider are easy enough for a newbie to consider:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928160

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833965

I would recommend thoroughly reading the guides, making sure you understand *everything* and informing yourself about ADB and rooting first, though. Remember, Google is your friend.

The reason is that if you mistake something, you might end up with a nice HTC-branded paperweight. But follow the steps as written and read beforehand about what you are doing, and you'll be a-OK.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Omnicide:
Alright quick story to get you were I am. Seens I got my sgs2 I rooted it and flash a ROM that day. I never did see how this phone is stock or even useed it to compare it to other roms etc.. So I unrooted back to 2.3.5 because I figured that was my stock phone but I really don't know. Ether way the question is shouldn't my phone tell me I have a update for 2.3.6? I have been stock for 12hrs I just thought it would tell me I have a update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackangst:
You should, but it would be faster probably to just flash it...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Omnicide:
I know it would be faster to do it that way. I just want to make make sure this phone is back to stock. Samsung Kia says there is no update. I am starting to think I am just not a stock phone.

Android version: 2.3.5

Baseband version: T989UVKL1

Kernel version: 2.6.35.11

Build number: Gingerbread.UVKID

now I think this might not be 100% stock and thats my problem. The reason I am asking this is I am going to be sending a phone back and just wanted to make sure it is a close as it can be stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
Did you odin it back to stock or did you use cwm to flash it back to stock?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Omnicide:
Used Odin to flash 2.3.6 ( was stuck with boot loader ), Then flashed in 2.3.5. Why what was the difference?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
was just wondering if you did odin or CWM... odin is more true to going back to stock.. if you use cwm you would have to flash stock recovery, kernel, rom, and modem.

but since you're just sending it in for warranty exchange. 2.3.5 should be fine. I sent mine in while it was still deodexed. You can always try to odin 2.3.6 again, try a different port.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Omnicide:
Alright thank you very much.

What does deodexed mean? After doing more resreach I found out that that is the 2.3.5 that I am useing as well.

Thank you all with out saying much of anything about my issue you all did help figure this out. For the next person that may be trying to unroot there phone back to stock and wondering why they are not getting a 2.3.6 update this is why.

-This is what I had

Android version: 2.3.5

Baseband version: T989UVKL1

Kernel version: 2.6.35.11

Build number: Gingerbread.UVKID

This is stock 2.3.6

Android version: 2.3.6

Baseband version: T989UVKL1

Kernel version: 2.6.35.11

Build number: Gingerbread.UVKL1

This is stock 2.3.5

Android version: 2.3.5

Baseband version: T989UVKID

Kernel version: 2.6.35.11

Build number: Gingerbread.UVKID

My old 2.3.5 was a cross between 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 so I wasn't getting the updates because my phone it was running 2.3.6 Thanks to the baseband.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Update only offered through the kies app though not OTA and may take app little bit to auto detect you can manually start it from tools menu after phone plugged in and drivers finish install.

You have to copy superuser zip and flash on any ROM that is not pre rooted before you get super user and full function.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Please use my advice as advice I am not responsible for what you choose to do with your personal device in any way.

You need to use a stock recovery image and flash with Odin at least

use your original nandroid backup from right before you installed your ROM and right after you rooted

but if you want things like custom install count reset use unroot package (easy Google) as I am unsure if original nandroid would reset this (but most likely will as they are full partition images)

They usually want to see stock recovery menu and ROM and don't normally dig deeper from mine and others experiences.

Sent from my SGH-T989 using Xparent Green Tapatalk
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
He did check through kies, but there was no update most likely because his baseband was still kl1

He Odin the stock ROM which includes stock recovery and kernel also. not sure why his baseband didn't change... bad flash? who knows.

If you restore your nandroid that was backed up after you rooted, you would still have superuser install you would want to remove that too.

But yeah he doesn't need to do any of this because he Odin the factory stock ROM that includes everything stock.

Yesterday, I bought myself a iconia a100. I found out today that the main apps I wanted to use are not compatible with honeycomb! (plants vs zombies, for one). My question is, will the ICS update allow me to install handset apps or will I still not be able to kill me some zombies?

I'm starting to think I should have bought a playbook. At least that one had the game and hot shots golf 2!

I wanted the Android tablet because of the market, but if some of the apps don't work, wouldn't the RIM market be similar in size?

I'm running ICS on my Touchpad and 95% of my apps work directly from the market with it no questions asked, there are a few headset apps that I wasn't able to download from the market directly but downloading the .APK and installing it that way worked perfect for me

Android 4.0 being for both Tablets and Phones has much better overall compatibility then Android 3.0

As Far as Android apps for Playbook there is a growing number of apps but if you want to use android apps a Android Device will always be your best option
