[Galaxy S II Accessories] Squishie:
As the title says, I'm looking to get a nice combination of bumper+mega battery.

I quite like the Sweet Armor posted at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1422752

I'm still very much open to suggestion regarding the battery, but I'm looking at http://www.momax.net/en/Product_Show.aspx?ID=1565&T=1

So yeah, I'm open to suggestion - size, weight and bulk are absolute NON-ISSUES. I like a big heavy phone for my big hands. They just gotta fit together.

Many thanks!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] taiachu:
My recommendation is to buy the official Samsung extended battery.

The aftermarket ones tend to get hot, melt, explode and make the babbies cry.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Squishie:
I was kinda thinking the same after reading the reviews for the aftermarket batteries. Thanks!

Now, I have yet to get a definitive answer whether the sammy 2000mah battery fits in the Otterbox Commuter case. The case compatibility thread has some minor details, and a half-assed 'yes-maybe'. Pic of phone & case:

I'll see what else I can find. (XDA search is... lacking at best) Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] seahorsepip:
I've got a original samsung 2200mah battery :P

edit: seems to be afake battery, not that I expected something different for a clone galaxy s2 lol
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DesirableHTC:
i have just ordered this one http://www.flagshipfones.co.uk/batt...sung-galaxy-s-ii-s2-2600mah-cs-smi9100hl.html It should actually be here today, i hope it doesnt explode or i will cry!

Well, my extended battery arrived and i almost cried at the sheer size of the thing.... it's actually thicker than the actual device! WTF! the tatty back cover doesn't even fit properly! needless to say, the think will be getting returned! i think the official route will be the best one!!

You know the official ones are currently only £5 more expensive than that one right?

(for the white version. but I sticker bombed the back panel as I didnt like white on a black phone :P)

hey all!

I am about to buy a galaxy w for good money (150 GBP) but it's locked on t-mobile. I need it on giff gaff (o2). Any chance of unlocking it for free? I searched high and low...couldn't find anything xD. I currently have a galaxy 3 (i5800)...the galaxy w should make for a nice upgrade i think :D

whoooohooooo :D Got my phone today. It's brilliant! And...surprise surprise...it was unlocked hahaaaaa :D Don't need to spend anything extra for that :D Now i just need to root it and i'm good to go ^^. It's fast enough atm...i don't want a custom rom. Will defo instal ICS when they fix the camera though :cool:

sooo...what's the best way of rooting? Phone has the latest software update (just did that half an hour ago)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] lionfib:
Do CWM recovery via odin - very simple.

Root with the Update.zip method.

Enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] robin0800:
Yes you should root it with The update.zip method but this only works with stock recovery, so don't put in CWM recovery first.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] tmcthree:
That's a good deal, where did you get it?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] drbrainsol:
i got it from a pawn shop...cashconverters. But the phone still had the original screen protector on (the samsung one...with all the writing), and all the accessories were still in their original packaging. Probably an unwanted present. I don't care really :D

I can see a problem though... i left the phone to charge overnight and now it's at 30% battery already :| I did play with it all day long, but still...i think the battery life is not too great... other than that, i love it :D

Anybody having a problem with their E4GT using Mijjah74z THE GOODNESS ROM v2.0 where the phone will just randomly performs a soft reboot? It comes right back but it has happened to me twice today. I did a fresh (wiped all and calks format all) then flashed the rom and FC07 modem then rebooted. I have not observed any performance issues with it. I love this ROM and all the work Team Nocturnal has done for this community on our phones!! :D

edit: this happened about 16 hours after install of ROM and modem. Up till then all was well!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] obelisk79:

But to answer your question it is a known issue and Nocturnal is working on it. They are currently testing a version 2.1 for release later tonight that should fix it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The111:
Gingerbread used the Pico TTS engine which sounded pretty bad.

ICS uses a Google TTS engine according to the settings. If you listen to a sample of it in the settings menu, it sounds pretty bad too. Not quite as bad as Pico, and somewhat different, but still pretty bad. However... in ICS if you use navigation, the speech is incredibly natural sounding, and it is obviously NOT the same TTS being sampled in the settings.

So what engine IS the nav using? And why not have that applied as the standard engine for the whole system?
[HTC Desire S] Hellrespawn:
I'm getting a Desire S soon and was looking up some information about rooting and flashing custom ROMs. If I'm correct, I need to use Revolutionary (or similar) to put my phone in the S-OFF state.

Is it possible to make a backup of the original rom, bootloader and recovery in case I need to return to stock for warranty purposes?

I've read something about needing a RUU to revert, is it possible to generate one from the stock enviroment? (if necessary, rooted with GingerBreak.)

The only real guide to returning to S-ON I could find (see below) just says discontinued, and as far as I can tell, there's nothing about it in the stickies.

I apologize in advance if I missed anything in the stickies, there's a lot of information to go through.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1187231
[HTC Desire S] Saipro:
Actually, you've got it licked. Unless you've got an incredibly slow and limited connection (like me) an RUU is the way out. Of course, I did mine the easy way:

- S-OFF using a tool of your choice

- Flash a recovery (started with CWM, now on 4EXT Touch)

- Back up the phone via recovery

- Keep a copy of the recovery on your PC or external drive

That way, you're certain to have a ROOTED system to return to should you ever change your mind - or should things go horribly wrong.

By the way, the RUU won't return you to S-ON (why on earth would you want to S-ON?!). But I have the files and can give you a link should you really want to consider S-ON (bearing in mind you could accidentally brick your phone if you take a wrong turn while in S-ON mode). Unless you want to re-sell your DS ...
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
You can't back up stock anything. To allow you to back up anything you need to break the very thing you're trying to back up. Try backing up your computer in the state before you install a backup program on it - doesn't make a lot of sense, does it?

RUU is the thing you're looking for, that contains all the system in stock form. This is what it's for.
[HTC Desire S] s0und0ut:
Thanks simple and clear. :)
[HTC Desire S] Hellrespawn:
Thanks for the help! The information about returning to S-ON was mostly hypothetical. Hi (my provider) has cooked up some scheme involving the 'leasing' of phones and I wanted to know if it was possible to completely return it to it's stock state, if it ever becomes necessary.
[HTC Desire S] Saipro:
If only you would click the "Thanks" button instead. Thanks
[HTC Desire S] djisgod:
returning to stock s-on is pretty easy,you just replace the hboot with the hboot-eng one(search!) then flash the ruu!
[HTC Desire S] Saipro:
Most often, it doesn't come off that easy. You'd first have to return to stock recovery. Or end up with some weird recovery screen which you can't get past. Repackaging the stock recovery (from any RUU) as a PG88IMG.zip, then flashing it would get you out of the dilemma (flashed a hundred things that way as I've an aversion for adb/fastboot commands. And you can't accidentally flash the wrong stuff unless you truly work hard at it). Solved!
[HTC Sensation] sinfulgray:
I have a sensation that i got real cheap and was wondering if you can check the CID or even change through adb wireless? The charging port on the phone is broke and no way to connect usb. The phone is already rooted with hboot 1.17...Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
You can check cid from the phone.

Download terminal emulator from the market.

Type "su" without quotes". If you are root you will get a "#'

then type

"getprop ro.cid" (again without quotes) and it will show your actual (original) cid.

Even if you got supercid (11111111) it will show the original cid, something like HTC__XXX

I dont know if you can change it from the phone as well.

If you want to check also your model id (mid). Type "getprop ro.mid"

Hope it helps.

PS. If you cannot use usb how to re-charge your phone? just to ask...
[HTC Sensation] status_six:
CID (current) can only be checked/changed via fastboot.

I didn't move anything to the /system/app folder, all I did was push the keyboard setting button on the keyboard to switch from android to hackers.

Also for example if I hit backspace on the android keyboard, the P key gets hit instead because that is where the backspace is on the hacker keyboard.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidunia:
Dear guys...

I am absolutely new for Window phone, 3 days experience after fed up with Samsung's Omnia long times ago...:mad:

So forgive me even my question is tooooooo noop but, trying to find out strong reason to flash custom rom on stock Mango...:cool:

Well, I have used Android phone for a long time with flashing every single rom available until no more fun, ..:confused:

So I bought HD2 and flashed Mango custom rom and also Android as dual boot. I understand to flash Mango custom rom to WM 6.5 on HD2 as I used terrible WM 6.5 before...

Mango made me soooo exited :eek: with totally different concept compare to Android as I already bored with Android...

So decided to stick to Mango phone from now on then again I bought HD7 and I compared side by side with HD2 running on custom Mango rom (as both devices have same spec of hardware..) and I couldn't find out differences between custom rom (on HD2) and stock (on HD7).

Question is

,

Why should flash custom rom to HD7 which is already on Mango ?

For Android, there is huge differences between stock and custom rom for the function, speed and UI but what will be the main benefit to flash custom rom for WP7 ?? Just prepare for flash unofficial upgraded version of Mango or WP8 ????

Another question is,

Even flashing custom rom, there is no problem to log in to Marketplace as no problem on stock rom ???

This log in problem is major issue on HD2 custom rom, that's why I decided get HD7 to experience all the function of WP7....

Appreciate your advise and guide in advance,....
