[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flyer4Flyer:
Leedroid HC does boot without problems, but has several problems (no HW buttons, no WLAN, no 3G, ...). Furthermore I can't switch it off. All the time I shut it down, it rebootes and is running several seconds later. Shutting down is only possibel via the CWM recovery.

Downgrading to gingerbread would be nice, but I didn't manage to do so.

I even would prefer staying on gingerbread...

Leedroid GB does not boot (bootloop, several files missing, several fails in DDMS).

And running the RUU leads to Failure 150. I think the newer radio/hboot are the source of all the failures.

But for replacing the hboot/radio by a older one I need to gain s-off ....
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
You need to Fastboot flash the boot img for Lees ROM
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flyer4Flyer:
Ok, I did so, but wasnt able to boot Leedroid anymore after that. Just got the white screen with green "htc" on it.

But how can it be, that the boot.img is required if the lee ROM comes with an own kernel?

Also flashing the kernel that comes with the lee ROM wasnt possible anymore after fastboot flash the boot_signed.img. But via NANDBACKUP I was able to restore it.

So any further idea to get Leedroid GB running?

Or gain S-OFF with my setting?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I may be confused as to you're actual current state. Are you running honeycomb or gingerbread? If honeycomb you can not flash gingerbread roms, and vice versa
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flyer4Flyer:
That might be the main part of the Problem.

I really cant tell you, I think I'm somewhere in between.

I was running stock gingerbread, s-on and locked - just out of the box.

Then an OTA update to honeycomb was started and failed and left the device (soft-)bricked. Only flashboot was accessible any more. Android didn't boot, turning on automaticly leads to flashboot, starting recovery/factory reset just leads to a reboot into flashboot.

In this state I was able to unlock (via HTC dev utility) and flash CWM recovery to be able to flash zip files. But I was not able to flash hboot, radio, system and so on.

I first tried Leedroid GB wich leads to a bootloop.

Then I flashed Leedroid HC, wich boots, but is not working propperly. (no WLAN, no 3G, no HW-buttons, and so on).

So I think there are incompatible radio and/or hboot on it as the OTA update failed somewhere in the middle.

But as I'm still S-ON, I cant flash all parts of the RUU (GB).

And just running RUU also don't work, as the radio/hboot seem to be newer then the version of the RUU.

And also the HowTo of globatron with "misc_version_universal" (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1307759) did not work. (RUU shows the changed version number, but fails nevertheless).

Relock boot loader before attempting ruu
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flyer4Flyer:
THAT was the missing hint!

Thank you so much.

After relocking the bootloader the goldcard worked and installed the stock ROM without any problem. Now ist working again!

Thanks for your great help!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tmek:
hey, I am a noob, have my flayer exactly like ur status u mentioned b4 HB 1.11.0006

it is stuck on that rom, HC, which have no Phone ability also.

Is it possible that you give me step by step guidance. i am worried if I attempt doing what u said above vaguely I would brick it. actually a friend of mine had the exact situation and got it bricked and had to change the main board.
[LG Optimus 2x] iulian89:
Now i have the lg optimus 2x but I'm not happy with it. I change roms once at week, many times I have to reinstall all the apps and restore stuff from backups. I decided that I'm not happy with it and I decided to go on and change the lg phone.

I want to say thanks to all the developers that made this damned phone a little better and helped a lot with it.

Max budget is 1000euro so I think that most of the android phones are inside the budget. What do you think is the best choice on the market right now?

What I am looking at the moment in a phone is:

At least 12 hours battery with medium wifi use, always enabled data connection and like 30 minute calls during the day;

I want it to be fluid and fast, I don't want to experience freeze because I'm out of ram;

I would like a good camera, I really like taking pictures and making videos but lets say that the camera quality from the o2x really dissapointed me, the video quality was really too low to be considered hd;

The display max size I think that about 5" is enough and I want to be able to use it in the sunlight without problems;

Well, that's it. What do you guys suggest me? Which phone would be your choice? There are many models on the market right now apparently with similar hardware but which one you think is the best to do what I want to do? You think I should wait and see what the Galaxy s3 will offer or you think that it cannot offer more than the others are offering right now?

Please, don't suggest me to buy an LG, I don't even want to think about it :mad:

Thank you for your help!
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
If I had a 1000 euro budget for a phone I would buy an LG and save the other 700 eur for... I don't know... condoms?

Now, seriously, best of luck to you.

I wonder if this is also a case for PG "the thread closer" 101.
[LG Optimus 2x] iulian89:
I really have no idea what to think of. With so many phones everyday I am a bit confused!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
If you really want a beast phone, go for the HTC One X. Quad-core and great performance. Also the dev support for the HTC is quite good. But, you need to wait, I don't think it's released yet...
[LG Optimus 2x] uber_:
I say wait for Galaxy S III or Lg Optimus 4x HD.

Not a HTC fan but ONE X is one great phone. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] nexus2515:
On seeing the probs u hav with your phone, i can say that you maybe my twin-bro...:D i have nearly same problems with each new fone i got...

I always regarded the 2 birds in the bush to be better than one in hand....

One day i read a person's comment on a post(similar to this one - started by me) that no one and nothing is perfect - if they have got a problem or two, learn to live with them, adjustment- a machine can't, but you can....

IMO- there is no need to get a quad core or huge screen or better camera coz one day or other they will get old.Don't get me wrong - i dont suggest to use a nokia 1110, change but only if necessary.....

But still coz you need suggestions, i will suggest nothing other than galaxy note- easily gives 18hrs+ usage if used extensively

And best of luck for your choice;):cool:

Hey everyone I am trying to make an aosp gingerbread rom for the mytouch 4g side and I cant find a kitchen that works.. when i try to install the test build it just doesnt install or show any errors and bumps back to the first page of recovery
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
use dsixda kitchen

however you have to make a configuration file for the doubleshot
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] shazam1203:
That is the kitchen I am using.. how would I go about making the configuration file?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beezie916:
I believe if you search around you will find it because I know someone asked the same thing and the link to the config was posted then too
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] shazam1203:
Ok thanks I will check it out tonight when I get home from work
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
The way to set it up is listed in post 2 or 3 of the kitchen thread.

I use it to split and repack boot images all the time without doing that, it really depends on what you use it for.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] overhauling:
I have not tested this, but I believe this config file should work. (This Configuration file is very similar, if not exactly the same, to that of the HTC Pyramid. )

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayoubi:
Well, I've had my phone for a little over a week and I'm realizing lag when scrolling in the app drawer. its not extremely laggy, but its just not super smooth. When I also text really fast it also lags which is really hard to type. I turned of auto correction I think it fixed the problem, but I'm not 100%. Anyone of you experiencing this?

Oh forgot to mention do you guys hear static when you have the volume really high?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
I don't have this issue but I am also using the force gpu rendering option. Everything is smooth and fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
What lag? Haven't seen lag since day one of having the phone. Doesn't matter what ROM or on stock. Smoothest Android experience yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yiannisthegreek:
Ive had the completely opposite experience... I too experience "lag" when typing, choppy scrolling, slow opening / running apps, etc... OP, I have the same issues as you do. Please advise if you were able to fix them and if so, what steps did you use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
I dont have lag when typing in text. But many people have complained about stuttering in the app drawer.

But i use handcent since day 1 for texts...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayoubi:
Well, I was able to fix lag while texting by disabling auto correction in the settings. it seems many people are having that issue, but my phone is pretty fast opening and closing programs.

Yeah, if i scroll really fast during the app drawer i notice lag, a little choppy lag, for most people many might not notice it. But I do, i think because i'm so used to my 120hz monitor when I used a 60hz monitor I notice just by moving around a window. I might be picky, but there is lag without a doubt in this phone or atleast my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
Read what the 2nd reply says dude.

Unless you just want to complain/troll and ignore possible solutions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yiannisthegreek:
I have the Force 2D Rendering switched on and I STILL have these issues. Im not the OP but I thought Id mention it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayoubi:
i already did it. i don't notice an improvement.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Different roms behave differently. Mine was pretty smooth but I've noticed lag on APW scrollable Widgets and flicking through the XDA on several roms. 4.0.3 helped but didn't fix.

Now I'm running Axi0m rom now which is 4.0.4 and there is no lag anymore. Much faster. I'm not over clocking or anything outside of the stock settings for that rom.

So I don't know if its 4.0.4 or the kernel/rom combination, but its a welcome addition. It uses Franco's kernel so maybe it was fixed there?

I DONT have Force 2D enabled either. FYI. Realistic answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patt2k:
+1 I own LTE Nexus I have been suggested to flash stock then root again.. i'm backing up my data right now so thank god I am not the only one...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zapek666:
Don't listen to people telling to "Force GPU rendering", they don't know what they're talking about (Launcher2 already uses GPU rendering).

The slight stuttering when scrolling the app drawer is a known bug, reportedly fixed in firmware > 4.0.2 and it also didn't seem to happen in 4.0.1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
^^^^ This.

Wth is with ppl saying to force gpu rendering, it only works in apps that don't make use of gpu rendering.

The UI in ICS is rendered completely by the gpu so checking/unchecking that option does NOTHING to the UI.

That myth needed to be put to bed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patt2k:
You guys seem to know your game so how come it still lags in 4.0.3?

for some weaird reason it seems to be stable for me right now... I did check force gpu and 4.0.4 since it's unoffical there isnt any real fast roms for 4.0.4 thanks guys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mudferret:
The first thing I do after a fresh ROM flash is change the animation scales to 0 in Settings>Development>window+transition animations. I also disable app drawer in/out animations in my launcher settings. The stock ICS animations are fairly obnoxious and much more pronounced than the GB animations. I do the same on my I9100 on CM9. Look at it this way, animations are wasted time, if they're a little over the top then it's more wasted time + more work. My GN is as smooth as my I9100 throughout its life; stock, modded stock, CM7, and CM9.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
If you go to nexus s forums you will see that a guy did benchmarks on all the roms available andstock 4.0.4 was the fastest, in fact the top 5 has 4 4.0.4 based roms.

give it a try and see how it is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patt2k:
dont really want to give up all the AOKP options they are just amazing. I guess I will listen to the other guy and disable all animations and see if it looks better and wait for 4.0.4 rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Well I agree completely with that course of action because that's what I do! ;)

AOKP with Franco.kernel and animations off!

4.04 is just too stock for me right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patt2k:
I actually like it animations off.

So I am guessing we all are seeing delays in animations which look like lag? it so so much smoother right now. Will report later on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
DroidTheory's Axi0m CrossBreef rom is based on 4.0.4 leak but has all the functionality of AOKP M4 (merged).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patt2k:
but is it for LTE? and would it require wipe? i've done it so many times i dont want to do it again lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patt2k:
*BUMP*

I just factory resseted my galaxy nexus (lte) to 100% stock and I still see lag when pressing nav buttons scrolling thru app-drawer and other things...

is it possible that my device became defective? I bought it from newegg and I am not sure how their newegg wireless warranty is
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayoubi:
4.0.4 gives me no more lag. I'M SO HAPPYYY!!!! WOOOOo!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] rahulaborkar:
Hi,

Doe anyone know how much do the HTC charges for replacing the LCD of HTC Sensation in UK? I have asked them but they dont reveal upfront and asked me to send the handset to be examined by technician, then they will send me a quote and if i dont want to go further they will charge me £25 to send the handset back.

also pl. let me know if there are any cheap repair centers in UK?

Thanks

Rahul
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
I had a broken LCD on my sensation, After looking through many sites, i got an approx repair charge of around £150 - £180 via HTC repairs.

There are some local repair shops that will do it for around £50 - £80... Which is a massive saving...But there is a chance they could cause more damage because its a tricky job and they are not qualified HTC repairmen so if it goes wrong...Bad luck :( I also doubt they will be using genuine HTC parts so that too could affect performance.

There are DIY Kits on ebay for around £60 delivered if you feel capable of doing it yourself. These adverts state they ARE genuine HTC parts.

There are several how-to videos on youtube so if you feel confident and have a steady hand and patience.... this would be best option.

Otherwise you could try to claim on some sort of insurance if you have it...

Finally, I dont recommend this but ive heard it works ;) Take a picture of a NON broken HTC screen, And a picture of Your back showing YOUR IMEI no. then send it off for repair due to some bull**** excuse..

When it comes back, blame the broken screen on them, And show them the pictures you took saying 'this is how it looked before i sent it for repair'

Like i said,, Thats NOT recommended and the guilt shall haunt you forever !!!!

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] ross607:
hey guys,

ok, my 8.9 is rooted but i've not flashed any roms, still using default touchwiz that it shipped with as I just wanted root access for a few apps. I notice that my market app has not updated to google play store yet and I was wondering if this is because I am rooted? any rooted users got the update and using google play now?

Also, if or when we finally get ICS am I correct in thinking that I will have to unroot my tablet if I want to received the official ICS update from Samsung?

Cheers in advance!

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I got the update on my phone but not the tablet, both rooted

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] chromium67:
I was on stock (UK) then flashed overcome 2.3.1.

Now back to stock unrooted and still got market icon.

My Xperia Ray updated ages ago.

I also had an issue with the market app "losing" apps that were installed on the device.

All in all not very impressed with Samsung's software.

Once the official ICS is out hopefully someone will de bloatware and mine will be getting flashed again.

the market that ships with Honeycomb is different from the one in the phone and ICS.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Niksko:
This afternoon my GSM Galaxy Nexus rebooted. It has done this before, so it didn't worry me much. It started the boot animation, and then it never stopped. The boot animation doesn't end as far as I can tell, after leaving it for over 15 minutes.

When this happened, it was simply in my pocket. The last time I did anything that could have caused this was the day before when I flash Francos r93 kernel. At the time I was running Modaco's IR12.

I have tried the following: wiping data, system, cache and dalvik-cache. Installing older and newer versions of both Modaco's ROM and Franco's kernel (in configurations which were stable in the past, but also in new configurations). I've also tried AOKP. None of these things have worked.

A few things I have not tried because I've run into issues:

I haven't yet flashed back to stock. I have downloaded the icl35f ROM from Google, but every time I try to flash it I receive an "Installation aborted" message in CWM.

I have a nandroid backup from a month ago, which I'd be more than happy to restore to, but I've deleted it off of my sdcard, and I only have a copy on my computer. I am trying to push the files back onto my /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups folder, but I'm having issues. I have pushed them back, but at the moment the files are just sitting the /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups folder. Do they need to be in a subfolder?

I've taken a log from logcat via adb which can be found here. When I watch the messages come through in real time, the system appears to be initialising for the time that it would normally take to boot, and then all I get are a series of garbage collection messages, roughly once or twice at a regular rate per second.

So I'm asking for some help. I haven't found anybody else with a case like this. I can still easily access the bootloader and recovery screens, yet it just doesn't get past the boot animation.

Please help. I'd love to avoid sending it for a warranty.

Regards

-Nik
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Langduscher:
Did you undervolt?

As for the nandroid restore; if the folder with the nandroid backup is in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/<NAME_OF_ANDROIDBACKUP> you can restore that using cwm recovery?

edit: <NAME_OF_ANDROIDBACKUP> should be a folder (which contains a bunch of files)

And using this guide you can get your Gnex back to the state as it was in when you 1st opened the box, should that really be neccesary.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Niksko:
I have experimented with undervolting in the past, but at the time this all started I wasn't undervolted.

The part I'm having trouble with is the <NAME OF ANDROIDBACKUP> part. In my infinite wisdom I must have deleted the folder, so I'm not sure what to call it.

I'll try that guide tomorrow.

Thanks for the reply
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Langduscher:
Hmmm. You could create a folder with whatever name you want (I rename my backups, just don't use spaces and weird characters, I renamed my last one AOKP27), and put all the files in there, and put that folder in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/

It might not work though because (I think) the created folder with the backup (named <time.date.year> or something) has a generated md5sum which might not be there now. Not sure about that. But still worth a shot.

As a last resort you could always go back to "stock" and move on from there.
