[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vivito:
Greetings,

I got a GT-I9000 which will become my main phone. But, before that, I’d like to install the

best, most stable, firmware

for it.

I prefer stability, and having all the features operational, to speed. I don’t need something ultra-tweaked to be super-fast.

I just want to use all the capabilities of the phone without having to worry if a problem is the phone’s fault or the firmware’s.

I’ve seen a few threads around, with many firmwares, but none made a good comparison or gave me a final decision (maybe because there is none).

I’ll be using the phone in Portugal (don’t know if this is that relevant to the answers).

Thanks.

Edit: I'm not necessarily looking for Android 4. If 3.5.x or something is the best option for now, I'm ok with it.

Hi, try this one out

It's realy fast and stable, it's worth a try ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clashlab:
I think DarkyRom (http://www.darkyrom.com) (Gingerbread) is what you are looking for.

I have been using it for over 6 months and it was pretty stable. I use v10.2.2 and never felt the need to go for 10.4.2.

Yesterday I switch to Dark Knight (ICS) hoping it will be better. I am more concern about battery consumption so I am still trying this one out. Maybe I'll stick with it, maybe I'll go back to Darky. But as of now I would say it's a bit snappier, could be a placebo effect.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sadique_khan:
Dude, i have been on Darky 10.2.2 for long, i faced a lot of issues with heavy applications and all the games. Data connection was another big issue. Ported to ICSSGS now, still experimenting :)

So my girl just told me her skyrocket wont turn on and a battery pull. I dont know

anything about the skyrocket but having the GS2 for Tmo i feel like its pretty much the same device to work with. I have not looked at it yet. But my question is, is there any odin file that will give me root access and custom recovery at once? If i can get her phone to go into downloading mode i want to just be able to odin it and bam.

any suggestions?

shes running stock.

As always, make sure the battery is inserted correctly. You can attempt a factory reset using the stock recovery (you would use the home softkey instead of the power button on the stock recovery) and see if that fixes it. If not, call att or take it to a store.

Hi,

I bought my Xperia S one week ago, it was perfect.

now when i press the back cover with my finger , it creaks and makes sounds .

I tried to remove the cover , it didnt work. Also trying to fit the cover perfectly in its place is not working . Nothing is broken and every thing is ok .

Do you have the same ?

Oh , btw the creaks are in the left side of the cover only.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OS4.:

How long have you been using your device ?

Have you talked to Sony about this ? What did they tell you ?

Do you think it could be replaced with a new one ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MattNoblett:
I've also been experiencing the same thing, at first I thought the back cover was just loose but now I'm not sure? Glad to see I'm not the only on.e
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] floepie:
Someone mentioned elsewhere they simply stuck a few layers of tape on the inside of the cover, and that solved the problem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
I had to do the same with my Neo. I filled every single opening in the back with small bits of paper to stop the creaking, and it fixed all of it :P

Not much you can do about it, it's just something that happens with almost all plastic non-unibody phones.

N64 Relive your Childhood!

So there is no thread in all of XDA that has a straight up tutorial. (correct me if im wrong ) For all you noobs out there i will show you how to do it

You Need To Know: there are two things required to play n64 games, the first thing is an emulater, and the second is a rom (no not a rom for phones!) for the emulater. lets just say the emulater is the N64 Console and the ROM is the game you want to play

Instructions:

1) first you need to download the emulater for you phone/ Go to the second post for download link

2) put the file in your phone and install it like any other .apk file

3) open it and make sure it works then close it

4) Get the Rom you want to play

5) Then Put the game in your SD card

6) Open up N64 Pro Emulator , and look for the rom of the game you want to play

7) Like magic it works!

Enjoy

I do not encourage Illegal downloading, if you have not owned the game you are downloading then it is illegal, you have been warned.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Download N64 Emulater
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
You should remove on "how to find the game". That is the piracy part and the thread will get closed. You should say instead, you must own the game and find it yourself. or something along those lines.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Read the bottom text/ im not giving any links to games so im not doing anything wrong, only get games you own
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
I know. I read it all. This part is what I am talking about.

4) now to get a game just google the name of the game followed by ROM

You should say something else because that is basically encouraging piracy.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
....True i see were your going, i edited it
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
Yup. Wasn't trying to be a jackass or anything, just wanted to make sure the thread doesn't get closed lol.
[HTC Amaze 4G] adslee:
I'm sorry but this is a really pointless 'tutorial'. Anyone with half a brain would be able to figure this out within minutes by themselves. This guide can basically be summed up in three steps: Get emulator app, get n64 ROM, run app. Not trying to hate or anything, but this is just really unnecessary...
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
People that don't know about roms and emulaters would find this helpful, or if they don't know were to download the latest version of the emulater
[HTC Amaze 4G] keepzero:
Yeah but super smash bros is really hard on the touchpad for the phone. Mario 64 and Zelda OoT is hella fun
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
yea super smash bros is kinda hard, most games are enjoyable like mariokart, zelda, mario 64
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
I didn't know anything about this. I appreciate the thread... I guess I only have "a half a brain." Lol. :D

Good thing I have enough of a brain to know that "half a brain" doesn't make any sense. Now that would just be embarrassing. :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] hypersonicx:
Yeah, there is nothing new here but my question is. I ran this using MHL HDMI to the TV and I have a gamestop bluetooth controler.

Has anyone else been able to play this on a TV and the screen not lag and slow down?

I also tried Sonic on GenSoid and when on TV via HDMI it starts to lag and slow down. I guess too much for the CPU / GPU to scale to 1080p on a TV.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
i tried this, and it was a little laggy, what i did was overclock it to 1.7Gz and delete everything in task manager, also make sure you have the highest settings, or just change emulaters, im not going to give links but there are better emulaters out there then the one i posted
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
Edit: Whoops... Meant to PM
[HTC Amaze 4G] F033x:
Really n64oid is the best emulator out there, not trying to come off as rude but depending on the version yong zhang has put forth loads of optimization into his emulator.

I play a ton of games on my amaze and it runs butter smooth without using a ton of CPU or freeing up all my memory ( sans jet force gemini, 1080 snowboarding, and goldeneye, and only because they've yet to be worked on emulation-wise).

As for using an MHL adapter I can't comment on that but I'm sure that outputting 720p is a large stressor on the adreno 220

Edit; all of yong zhangs work is now on slideme.org just in case anyone wants to support his emulators and get the most up-to-date versions.

Just saying... if u got another android device (like my HP Touchpad :D) u can use your phone as the controller and played it on the other device by using this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=droidbean.btcontroller&feature=nav_result

or the paid version (basically ad free)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=droidbean.btcontrollerfull&feature=nav_other

This gives better view when you played the game, I suppose...

[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
N64 is more my early teenagehood than it is my childhood lol. I guess I'm an old guy in the forum ha ha.

As far as available emulators go.... I haven't really messed with n64 but yong's "____oid" emulators absolutely own. I've used nesoid, gameboid, genesoid and snesoid thoroughly and they're all completely without flaws. Having that experience that I do with his excellent work... I'd have no reason to trust any other version than his N64 oid.

I haven't really messed with emulation on my amaze yet for the simple fact that an onscreen keypad just doesn't do it for me at all when it comes to the games I grew up with and still love. Once we have a true aosp build with working radios I plan to utilize boot manager to have a secondary Rom for the occasion that I fire up the emulators.

The ONLY way to rock these for me? The fine work of pikipirs. With his WiiMote controller ime... You can pair up a Wii remote, add a classic controller to the mix THEN go into yong's emulators, enable "use external input method" and map the keys of your classic controller Wii remote peripheral to rock the emulation with. There's just no comparison for me. I've played my favorite games (Super Metorid being at the top of that list followed by Megaman 2, the 2 GBA Metoid games and Rocket Knight Adventures on Genesis in no particular order) so many million times that its quite aggrivating trying to rock them with digital controls lol. Can't wait for an aosp build with working gsm so I can start messing with boot manager and finally rock these things again =). I could do that now, but I don't even want to start until I won't be missing texts or calls while I have the secondary Rom fired up he he
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmako777:
you guys are slacking in this thread...download this

[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
Hey now... I JUST posted about the Wii controller ime.. but wait a second. Is this ps3 controller ime compatible with sense then? If so, I'm totally buying a ps3 controller lol

Edit - okay. This app (almost) officially owns! The compatibility tester just confirmed that my (sense based of course) amaze is compatible!!!! Time to borrow my boss' PS3 controller to confirm it works well with yong's emulators as good as pikipirs' Wii remote controller ime works.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmako777:
Its an amazing app! :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
So... Just to hear it first hand from someone and get even more excited about it... It works with your amaze? And your amaze is currently sense-based yes? It seems too good to be true lol

I was referring to the ps3 controller ime, in response to Mrmako, that we were were talking about =)
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Ah... My bad
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
No worries =). Super excited to get a ps3 controller to work with my phone. Won't even have to run a secondary Rom for legitimate external controller connectivity. Couldnt have come at a better time as with my amaze, I've really grown to love sense a lot. =)
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmako777:
Well, let me clarify that I've used it on my xoom, but if it says its compatible with the amaze, I'm not sure why it wouldn't work. Never felt the need to use it on a 4" screen vs a 10" screen. Ill install it later tonight on my phone and let you know for sure
[HTC Amaze 4G] :

[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Doh'kay... Samsung + phone of year... IaaaaaaaaaaaaalwaysLoveThatOne :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
No worries man. As it turns out my boss is gonna let me borrow a ps3 controller to confirm. Can't blame you on that one with the xoom and all =)

I've got a 360 but only because it was free =). Not that its not worthy of buying, only that I don't have much time to play video games these days. When I do find a spare hour or two ill either be working on Zelda Skyward Sword or my second play through of GTA4 (gotta see what happens when I make the opposite decisions from what I made the first time, specially near the end of the game he he).

But yeah. No ps3 controllers here either. It seems though that ill be buying one solely for the purpose of emulation on my amaze =). It's worth the $50 to me =)
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Agree about time for games... I only play Madden, Tiger Woods, and COD. But the Xbox controller is still elite
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
Confirmed!!! Sixaxis Controller works like a charm =).

Anyone on here with a dual shock sixaxis controller (even those without that'd be willing to buy one for this as I am) should get this app and play games with a real controller =). No reason not to =)

[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
No need to go back to stock as the RUU will write over everything. All you need to do is backup your files (internal SD WILL get wiped) and rename the RUU to PH98IMG.zip and flash in bootloader.
