[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Red5 whats the deal with this thread? I was under the impression that this was already covered. After getting my post quoted and being told that the OP was trying to install CWM with his existing kernel, I went back and read the OP and followed his link. It seems to me that he is just trying to install CWM like we all have, using codeworkx kernel and not his existing kernel.

If that is the case, I guess I don't know why this thread hasn't been closed. Seems a little confusing to me (and probably others) as to what threads are allowed to stay and which ones aren't ... if we are talking about multiple threads with the same topic (installing CWM)..?

Not questioning your authority, just would like a little clarification. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Well, there was a decent conversation going on, until someone had to crap on it. Threads that just ask "how to install this?"are shut down because 99% is covered in the stickys or are linked in the stickys.

This thread had a decent conversation and I was waiting to make sure the user got the info he needed and was successful. Its called helping out. Once that takes place, the thread can be closed because there is no longer any need for any more discussion.

Its not beneficial to just automatically close every thread that pops up in the General or Q&A section. Even Devs started out as noobs at one point, so we need to be somewhat courteous in the offchance that the next noob might turn out to be a great dev in the future. The OP didnt seem like your ordinary noob that just wanted to be spoonfed, so I gave him the benefit of a doubt and left this open.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
yep...took me a few seconds to locate it after clicking the links in the sticky...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
hey man, sorry if I crapped on this thread. It really wasn't my intention. The OP doesn't seem like your ordinary noob wanting to be spoonfed, but I was just taking notice at what he was trying to do is pretty basic and is more than covered. When I got my phone i rooted and installed CWM using the same threads here on XDA. Superoneclick rooted and followed codeworkx instructions to install his kernel for CWM. Granted I didn't have any poroblems, I get it that some people will.

i asked an honest question and you give me sarcasm... come on man, I'm trying to be cool and just ask why.. that was all.

still unclear about what is ok and what is not..lol sorry man, but going back and reading the OP.. I'm not all too convinced he couldn't of figured this out without reading maybe a little bit more than he is admitting to. :rolleyes: but whatever.. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
There was no sarcasm, that was the reason why. I gave you an honest answer. I dont think every thread should be closed and as I said, this thread had a decent conversation in it. With that, I took a look at the sticky and realized that I can modify it to better point out the issue that the OP had. Had I just closed the thread I never would have stumbled onto that.

Again, there was no sarcasm in my comment. I just wanted to help out a newer member and left this open for him.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
lol.. you can honestly say that you weren't being sarcastic when you told me "its called helping out"

..normally anytime you put "it's called.." in front of ANYTHING other than a question asking what something is, it's being sarcastic.. just sayin.

I don't like the rubbery feel or the look of zagg screen protector. Anyone know what is the solution they provide with it ? It really works well with the cheap and better screen protectors available on eBay or amazon.

I was wondering if its possible to buy it separately or any alternative as spending $20 just for solution is costly affair :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tysj:
Water with a drop of liquid hand soap will do. Just slowly mix it around without creating bubbles and kaboom, $20 magical application liquid solution mix sauce.

I never liked the feel of the zagg screen protectors either. I don't use a screen protector or a case on the S II because of the gorilla glass and the slim form factor. It's a beauty when it's just plain nekked;)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orfius christ:
So I've been wondering, will there ever be a ics ROM that will be running sense? I really enjoy ics but I hate to say goodbye to my sense ui because it's great! If you know any that would be great!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bukithd:
Right now from what I know, there is a sense 3.6 rom for the rezound, I could be mistaken and a sense 4.0 rom leak for the rezound. The likelyhood of either being ported to the incredible is slim to none.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orfius christ:
I really wish there could be, or at least an ics based theme over 3.5 like how Ice Cream Sense was just a themed gingerbeard.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
That seems more possible. Sense 3.5+ICS on this phone=major lag.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werdna87:
No 4.0 as the rezound isn't getting it :/ but yes we have 3.6 leaks that are very stable. You would need an ics kernel before they would even boot though.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirrin:
I dont know it could be possible question is how much room is open and how much ram the ics ui is using on our little incredibles i am not sure we have enough ram as it seems we have 412 of the 512 useable
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XRaptor29:
only thing i would thing]k of with sense and ics would be a port from the incredible 2. which is ics with sense 2.0 when is gets released. ICS is more demanding and 3.0+ would lag to much.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werdna87:
Inc2 is getting 3.6 so you are out of luck there
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orfius christ:
I couldn't even imagine the lag it would actually have. I just love the sense UI way too much to give it up. But if I can't have my dream OS and UI, then what are good and stable ICS ROMs? I was looking at abduction I believe it was called and I think I'm going to download that.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XRaptor29:
Yeah your right. Lol my bad. They. Redid it to run better on lower end phones
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werdna87:
You would still need a kernel though. I know that the din2 forums began to write their own but not Mich worked

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redhawk0:
Hi all...yes...new to the forum so forgive me if I'm in the wrong place.

I have a DInc2 running Virtuous Affinity 2.05....I love the ROM but the only issue I have found is that the Mail routine allows for various Mail Check intervals...I use 5 minutes for my business mail...and 10 minutes for personal mail. It seems like this is not working. I get an update to all my mail (5 accounts) about once per hour.

Any ideas why this might be?

redhawk
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redhawk0:
Well I tried something that I thought might be where the problem lies...but it didn't help. Since I had this working correctly with OTA GB 2.3.4 I remember that the longest mail check interval was 4 hours....now with VA 2.05 2.3.5 the interval is as long as "once a day"....so I tried leaving my prime time interval at 10 minutes and setting my after hours interval to 4 hours....still the same problem.

I'll keep looking...since no one seems to have any clues.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redhawk0:
Well its been interesting...I've never found why this happens...I've even tried several different ROMs....all have the same problem. I keep going back to my very stable Virtuous Affinity. I have notices though..my default Google address will update much more frequently then my other email addresses that are not the default. I can go as long as 2 days without a single update to my secondary email addresses. 3 (verizon) and 1 (gmail)

My primary will update a couple times a day even though I have the check every 10 minutes selected in the default mail program.

I'm running cobrato's miui rom with his modified version of doomlord's fully over clocked kernel.

The problem is, when I hold down the power button to turn it on, nothing happens. The same thing if I pug it into a charger or my computer. I can get it into flash mode and I tried flashing a new kernel but when it flashes the loader it gets stuck at 13%. I also tried flashing stock 2.3 firmware but again, flashtool can't flash the loader.

[G1 General] cwwilson721:
I used XDA Forums for quite awhile for my Samsung Epix, updating that to WinMo 6.5, etc, etc.

I wanted an Android Phone since the G1 first came out, but not having a REAL cell plan (using GoPhone forever, just switched 2 mo ago to the new T-Mobile 4G Monthly), I had to wait for prices to drop (I'm also VERY cheap).

Well, 2 weeks ago, I found a G1 on eBay for $30 (I was the ONLY bidder..Works PERFECT, one minor crack on 'chin'), and got my phone. It is a Bronze (hate the 'lighted keyboard'), ran 1.6, and had a 'bulged' battery, but would hold a charge for a whole 15-20 min, as long as I didn't make a call...lol

So, I hopped on the forums here, and read. And read, then I decided to read some more. Decisions, decisions, decisions... First, I followed the Cyangenmod 6.1 guide, and put that on there. Nice. But a little..Slow? Laggy? It worked OK, but just wasn't right. So I looked at more ROMs. I looked at ICS, Ginger, but settled on Froyo, because I needed stable, and fast, because this is my 'main' phone.

Since I run Linux almost exclusively at home, ADB, and so forth, were not an issue, and the file system on the phone made sense to me. I finally chose the Froyo by Lazlo ROM, and ezterry's kernel, and flashed them. Boy, I am one happy little Droid now. Snappy, fast (once I partitioned my sdcard correctly, and went to ext4 and actually turned on the swap...lol). I also use Google Voice/GTalk a ton at home (I said I was CHEAP), so found Talkatone, which works just right for wifi calls when I run out of the 100 minutes on my Prepaid plan.

So, within 3 days I had a Froyo, wifi-calling, Android running little phone.That battery life I could measure in seconds. So, off to Amazon, and bought one of those extended-2400 mAh batteries and back covers. What a difference! HOURS of use! Days, even!

So, for around $50 (including shipping for phone, and cost of new battery), and about 2 hours of actual "work", I have a Froyo G1, that I'm VERY happy with!

Thank you, Google, HTC, XDA-Developers, Lazlo, ezterry, and whoever made the battery.

For an 'old' phone, it sure does work great!

Same, tried looknig it up on the play store on my phone, it wasn't shown on there. lol. Groove IP doesn't have good quality for some reason.
[G1 General] korimako:
apk

Talkatone is in the market, just doesn't show up since these phones are really only supposed to allow 1.6... Just went looking for the apk and suprised to find it available on Talkatone's website. Works great, came here to post, and had a message from the OP - Thanks. pretty slick old phnne for $10! I downloaded the "side loading" version from w w w.talkatone.com/android-side-apk.html (sorry not allowed links ) Must have "allow installing" checkbox checked.
[G1 General] cwwilson721:
UPDATE

I stuck with Froyo By Laszlo (FBL) for quite awhile, and then have been "experimenting" with different ROMS.

So far, most of the GB roms (for me, at least) seem to be either too laggy, or have random reboots, lockups, or memory is HORRIBLE. At least, having my 'giant' battery makes battery life a moot point, so I don't figure that into whether I 'like' a ROM or not.

So far, it seems a tie between FBL and ezTerry's "Official AOSP 2.2 OTA" as far as stability/speed is concerned. The first time I used the AOSP rom, it had some 'odd' behaviors, but when I retried it, it may have been a 'bad' download.

AOSP does a better job with moving all programs, data, and caches over to the SDCard, too, so the apps have more 'memory' to play in.

I'll update this thread as I learn more, and my thoughts and 'concerns' with the ROMs I try out.

Happy Modding!

Dear Friends,

I am currently on Verizon Network and planning to upgrade my phone to Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

The problem is I am leaving to India in a couple of weeks and I will be staying in India for 3 months. During these 3 months I want to use Nexus with an Indian CDMA carrier.

1)My question is - can i use the Nexus with an Indian Carrier? If yes I guess i need to unlock my device.

2)Can someone help me with the information of how to unlock the Galaxy Nexus. It would be wonderful if someone can guide me with this.

3)If I unlock the phone will I have any problem using my phone with Verizon when I return to US after 3 months?

Really appreciate your help folks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] navymoss35:
Not possible on cdma
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Does india have any cdma carriers? I thought not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Well that's not true. It is possible, but not plausible. It requires you to completely re-flash the phone to a different carrier's network, and then have the carrier accept a device with an ESN not in their system, which at best is a long-shot combination.

So, it could work, but it probably won't. And it isn't really worth the hassle.

I was under the same impression.

OP, you should pick up a GSM phone for your travels and save yourself the trouble. Leave your Nexus in a safe place at home with the battery left at about 65% charge and the phone off :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maheshraj84:
thank you very much guys for your replies

there is cdma network in india- Reliance Communications
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] navymoss35:
Just trade it for a gsm one
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
To be clear - Verizon stores even the CDMA subscriber information on the SIM for LTE phones. So if there is a provider in India that uses CDMA SIM cards (rare, but I know they use them in China) you might be able to get this working.

Or you could get a GSM/HSPA phone to use on your trip :-)

Download a recovery image of your choice (I recommend TWRP 2.0)

If it's in a zip format, extract the IMG file and copy it to where you have fastboot located.

In a command window, use cd to navigate to the appropriate location that fastboot is stored

reboot your phone into Bootloader (Power on while holding Vol-down key)

Select FASTBOOT on the phone and plug into PC (it should say FASTBOOT USB on the Phone)

in command window, type fastboot flash recovery <name_of_recovery_image>.img (Obviously replacing <name_of_recovery_image> with the file name of the recovery image) and press enter, let it proceed until it says OKAY.

Should work after this.
[Defy General] Fitchie:
Hi Everyone!

I have been given a Defy MB525 with Froyo installed

Apparently O2 and Motoblur don't like each other 'cos I can't locate the phone or do anything else using "My Motoblur" as Motoblur wants Microsoft Explorer and I have Linux on my computer.

I want to manipulate files and basically get full access to my phone using a nice friendly Linux GUI, but apparently I need to root the bloody thing.

I know this question has been asked before. The thread below is an example.

http://http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=9456771

The thread mentions Z4root as an answer.. It doesn't exist anymore.

It then talks about adb and pushing files into the phone.

In the most part this worked

The bit that didn't was "adb push exploit.bin /data/local/tmp/exploit.bin"

It doesn't exist on the zip file attached..

It did however have "rageagainsthecage-arm5.bin" instead

I changed the name to exploit bin in the vain hope that it might be the one and continued the instructions.

It obviously wasn't the one as :

a) it wouldn't come out of the program and

b) I got the $ sign instead of the # sign, which meant I was not root.

This was confirmed when I did the next step in the instructions and got permission denied.

After a switch off and on again (the phone) I cannot even get get back into the phone using adb. It just comes up "error: device not found" even though Linux is showing it as a directory.

So! What next?

Yours in anticipation

You can look at the stickies at the top of the forum before posting, see "Defy all-in-one beginner's guide", understand that it probably refers to you and most likely contains the answers to any beginner questions you'd want to ask, open it, read it in case you're serious or just look for "rooting" word if you're not.

Well, you already missed the first part and posted the thread, but you could still do the rest.

Given that you're running Linux on your PC, I'm a bit puzzled - I'd think that the described above is expected from someone with unorthodox OS that is likely used to searching for various guides.
