[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimchiman52:
hey guys I've been searching for a solution all day and I'm out of ideas.

my bluetooth keyboard came in the mail today and for some reason it refuses to work on cm9. the keyboard works perfectly with my netbook, my friends iphone, his ipad, and even booted into webOS but when I'm booted into cm9 nothing happens. I can successfully pair it and it says its connected in the settings but none of the buttons respond. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

edit: forgot to mention I also tried wiping and flashing a new rom. tried both cm9 alpha 2 and aokp m4. same problem on both.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ByteWrencher:
I don't know if this will help, but I've got a Motorola BT keyboard that is designed for android that doesn't work directly with WebOS (or Windows for that matter). To get it to work with WebOS I have to press and hold the 'V', 'A' and 'R' keys when I turn it on.

Perhaps your keyboard has some similar way of selecting alternate platforms?

nope that doesn't work :[.

so I tried my friends bluetooth keyboard and it works great. It seems android 4.0.3 on touchpad seems to be partial to certain keyboards..

So what keyboards are compatible with HP touchpad? I'm thinking of ordering one next week but don't want to waste the money on one that doesn't work.

Hi to everyone.

My name is Tom. I am a former Mt3gs owner, up untill mine broke a few months ago. And refused to pay the $200 for a refurb slide,so I have been using a borrowed non android phone from a co-worker since it broke.

I work at walmart as a tire and lube tech. Went to school for automotive and got an associates from my local community college in 06, I own a 93 celica convertiable and a 89 4runner. Hoping to swap the turbo motor for the car sometime in the next year. I enlisted in the National Guard last year, got chaptered out and am trying to get back in soon.

Well, enough about me. Just saying hi to everyone.

Should I get black or white(haven't seen the white in person but was told its more of a pearl white rather then plain white) any one have a pic of both?

Not gonna wait for the s3 I'm content with the s2, imo no need for quad core yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jaytex24:
SGS2 yes or no

My opinion, having had a mt3g, mt3gs, mt4gs previously, my answer would be yes. I have grown attached to slide out keyboards but find the on screen buttons large enough to not be a hassle. I also like usb otg, only thing I do not like is needing a mhl adapter to stream video to external monitors. It's a solid phone, one of the most popular android phones ever released actually.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
I too liked the keyboard, but that's what broke on mine(ribbon disconnection) rendering it useless, then borrowed my wifes spare side and a few day later the screen froze so that's 2slides broken in a matter or days lol I actually liked swype so I thnk ill adpapt quickly to to lack of keyboard. And our work termnals are all touch.

my wife is also getting an s2. So ill have her old slide to tinker with to learn about this rooting thing.

Now its just a color decision.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kr3w1337:
Don't upgrade. Save up and get one of the quad cores in a month or get the xperia s, it looks way better.

If you're into large screens then get the note. But really don't get this one. It isn't worth it at this time of the year, we're at the cusp of a generation cycle.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] madizmo:
and it only came out 4 months ago lol, you can just never keep up. I would still get it, this phone is amazing and wont be outdated for a long time yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
upgrade as in signing an extending 2 year contract?

I would get the white one. It has that WOW factor. The back feels like cheap plastic compared to the black back though.... but I use a skin to the protect my phone.

why not get one black and one white.

I've owned both colors and the white one is CLEEEAAAANNN

BTW if you're planning to upgrade (2 years contract)... contact t-mobile's retention department they'll hook you up. Probably $250 credit + bogo phone deal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Inwharitza:
The white would be my choice...... Too. Considering ou can sell it for more. And maybe u should wait for the quad core phonea to come out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
Yes signing a new contract. Well we did go into our only local store lastweek and the sales guy acted annoyed that we even came in, then told us they were out of the s2 and wouldn't be getting any in soon (claimed they've beenout for a month) I called bs but my wife told me to just let it go, so we left. Very bad salesman and I was ready to by it outright if he wold had not been a jerk. So maybe ill tell my wife to call them ad speak to a rep.

Because we are again getting the same phone we will end up with one of each, juet to tell em apart like we did with the slides. I had white cuz she picked the red first.

I see no need for a quad core phone, seeing as the dual core isn't even being used at the full potential yet. I give it another year or 2. I don't see the s2 being outdated anytime soon.

Anyone have a pic of both colors?real pic not off google or generic. Want to see the whites finish.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DannyB513:
I would take some pics for you but don't have my camera on me right now. You were correct earlier in that it is a ceramic white. Think of like the color of the storm troopers in Star Wars. I am much happier I got mine in white than black. It really stands out in a crowd of cell phones that all look the same nowadays no matter who manufactured them and as someone stated before it is very clean looking.

I got a helluva a deal on mine. I got it when they first brought out the white back in December on sale for 149.99 and after a 50 mail in rebate only paid 99.99 for it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dark Nightmare:
I got the black, wishing I got the white though, the white looks beautiful, though to be honest my 4.52" screen makes my S2 stand out just about everywhere. Got mine on a free phone deal, paid $250.00 got $250.00 back mail in rebate. Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Raistline:
Not to put you down or anything but the last sentence you said really gets me. This is not against you but against everyone who gets trapped into thinking this way.

You did not get the phone for 99.99 at all. You got the phone for 149.99 and had the opportunity to get a $50 Visa gift card from a third party promotions company for remembering to fill the forms out correctly and mailing the rebate form in.

If you had to pay out 149.99 when you got it, that is what you paid for the device. I wish everyone can understand this simple fact as most "rebates" that are sent in are rejected due to a minor spelling mistake or the return address does not exactly meet what is in their systems. The rest never get sent in.

I apologize for my minor diatribe but I just had to say something.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Racing19969:
Great Phone, I chose the white.... Looks way better than the black model...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1ForFun:
Lol...in your opinion. I am the opposite. The white one looks FUGLY to me.

Also some things I noticed while comparing black to white side by side.....

1. Black phone makes the screen "pop" more.

2. Black phone has way less light leaking from the touch buttons.

And then two other reasons I dislike the white.

3. White phone gets dirty VERY easily

4. White phone makes me think of Apple's white head phones and white ipod and stupid commercials.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DannyB513:
I understand where you are coming from but, after receiving the rebate I got 50.00 of that 149.99 back so in the end I did only pay 99.99 for the phone. If people can't read and understand directions well enough to fill out a simple rebate form correctly then they shouldn't have a smart phone in the first place!! :p On another note though, 149.99 was still cheaper than I could have gotten the black one for(199.99). I also am glad that it was on sale for the 149.99 price or I probably would have bought the HTC Amaze(229.99 at the time). After reading on here how many people swapped it out for this phone, i am glad I got the GSII from the get go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackangst:
This is what my wife and I did...she got the white one. The back of the white one is smooth whereas the black one is texturized. I find it easier to operate one handed because of this.

I share your feelings on the quad core. I'm a light gamer otherwise don't do anything super CPU intensive so a quad core would not help me at all. I also agree the GS2 will be a strong phone for quite some time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
Dirty doesn't bug me. I always have a microfiber cloth or bag with me. Didnt know the back was smooth though.....hmmm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
1) perhaps but regardless of the color, the screen is super vibrant.

2) not only that but when in the dark, the touchkeys illuminate the entire front white faceplate which i think makes for a very neat effect.

3) False, things dont stick to this particular phone. Dont make assumptions on things you dont own ( I suppose since ypu have yhe black version)

4) Thats marketting for ya, it works. Kudos to apple for having such successful campaigns and time for you to stop hating :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dan_Brutal:
I got a white one, and let me tell you, its beautiful. Yes its slick in hand, but nothing a tpu case cant solve. And who cares if it looks like an iPhone, we all know that these phones eat apples for breakfast.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
Could you get a pic sidebySide.?

Yeahim not amobile gamer much, if I want to game I have a ps3 and a full hd 40"tv :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MrKnitty:
I say get the gs2. I had the g1, evo4g and I love them phones but this phone right hereeeeeeeee is the Shh... you won't be disappointed at all... the phone moves alot faster than my other phones and the internet is fast... I gets speed of like 20 down and like 5 up...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PulldOvr:
I got one black gs2 from t-mo for free on that free phone day for my fiance. Then on my way hone I stopped at Walmart and notices they were selling the black on there for $148.88 and it came with a $50 gift card to Walmart. When j was ringing up, I noticed a white one on the shelf and asked for that one instead and they swapped it out. In total I spent $398.88 for 2 gs2s and a 50 gift card. I have a card coming back from tmobile for $250 so for $400 biz, I got 2 awesome phones, and $300 in gift cards. Not bad.

I upgraded from the vibrant. It was hard going back to GB from ICS but this phone is fast and easier to see because of the better and bigger display. I prefer the white one and I have it wrapped with the blue d30 case ... which I got the buy 2 get one free deal (opted for screen Protectors instead of a 3rd case).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1ForFun:
Well for one, saying I am entitled to my opinion before I make a post should reinforce the point that I am not hating. ;)

You should take your own advice about not making assumptions. I have a friend with a white SGS2 and have played with a few others from friends of friends. The ones who do not use a case, you can see the dirt and oil has stained the phone. Yes the degree of stain will be different for all but my ORIGINAL point was that black is much less susceptible to showing dirt than the white one is. Give it some time, you will see it at some point.

Enjoy your white phone!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobby3306:
IMO the white also seems a tad feminine.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] _ice_:
Get the white one mate! Everytime I bust out my phone in college people tend to stare o.o

IMO white phones look sexy af. I have had a white mt3g a white mt4g and now a white gs2.

Oh and white gs2 is rare in my city I haven't seen anyone rocking a white one. And I live in Houston.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
I m preety sure I'm gonna get the white. Wifey might end up with a white one too but meh well have different screens to tell em apart. Hope we can afford the phones come upgrade day but we have bills due so the phones may wait Untill the next week we get paid. Unless tmo will do the xtra charge on the bill... or she calls a rep. I'm still irritated by the saleman in the store last week or 2weeks ago whenever we stoped in.

I also had(still have,but broken)a white mytouch3g slide

I don't know anyone here in toledo that has an s2. Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chrischoi:
Black.

The white is gloss... a little dirt and grease could stain it and leave black marks. Black would hide it all and would just need a wipe down.

I have a set of white Mikita Drills and I get really weird about working on my car with them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chrischoi:
That's 100% untrue. If you got an upgrade, you get a rebate. If you don't get a rebate... it got lost in the mail, it was decline or you didn't get an upgrade. If it's lost or declined, you just have to make a phone call and they can straighten things out for you. I'm not sticking up for the Rebate Center... but I've never seen them not pay out to anyone that was entitled to a rebate. I've been with multiple cell phone carriers and never have seen this happen. A call to the rebate center and they corrected the issue and sent it out within 2 weeks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Raistline:
Well then I guess you are luckier than some at getting rebates resolved. I and many people I know have been refused payment on rebates for the smallest of infractions and have not been able to get it resolved.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
While at worK phone stays in changng room : )

Will hopefully get s2 on 31st or 1st.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
Well my wife called cs for a urelated reason aNd she ended up talkng to A cancelaton rep about other line(data stick pos) . And ended up getting off the phone with a $200 credit to our bill and a buy one get one deal on the black s2 for $229, so with the credit were only paying $29 for 2 new gs2's, free shipping. Phones will arrive in ~5-7 days.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] s10shane:
i would wait and get the one s. looks pretty damn nice and the s4 is pretty damn quick. to bad i cant upgrade till next year otherwise my gs2 would be gone lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] _ice_:
Lol black or white, its still a s2 Congrats!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
I think t-mobile has a promo for getting the sgs2 for free after rebates after signing/renewing your contract.

I answered your PMs before that the loyalty/retention/cancel department can hook you up a lot. You totally could've pushed for the $250 credit! lol oh wells.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droptopMP:
Update:checked the bill and status of order.... they actully credited us $260(included upgrade fees and shippng) and phones will arrive TOMMOROW!!! I'M STOKED.

It was just funny cuz she called about a totally unrealated reason.

Don't want an s one, htc bores me.

As there is a useless requirement for posting in development I have to come here to answer a simple question,

Yes on build 28 I have the same MAC address, that will be a big problem since the ROM should not be changing that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slack04:
Sure. Wait, what? :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Panos_dm:
Lol :D

sent from my nokia 3210
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slash0:
I´ve also notice that since a few versions back, there is a static MAC address in the ROM.

This one: 00:90:4c:c5:12:38, my orginal MAC was like this: 8c:77:12...

(If you don´t know what your MAC was before flashing this ROM ? Look at your WLAN Hotspot Log...)

When someone uses 2 Devices (with this ROM) in the same WLAN, only one would be connected.

You can edit 2 text files in "/etc/wifi" and change the MAC to the one you like or have.

nvram_mfg.txt

nvram_net.txt

Yes, of course, the filesystem should be remounted:

open Terminal:

mount

su

mount -t ext4 -o remount, rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 /system

Then set permissions 755 on directory "wifi" and the 2 files.

Now you can edit the files.

An other and easier way to temporary solve the MAC problem is to edit the 2 files in the ROM zip archive itself,

then flash the ROM again.

I hope that in one of the next releases the orginal hardware MAC should be used again.;)

[Motorola Photon 4G] silverballer95:
Alright so I've been trying to find amd actual solution to this problem all week. Every thread I've found on every site has only involved specific apps giving this error, or ones of a certain file size and higher.

It happened right after I was trying to flash CWM onto my phone so I could install CM9. After many futile attempts, I decided "f**k it" and just factory reset my phone. After I did that, I was going to try and redownload all my apps, naturally. It was then that I got the error message quoted in the title for every single app I tried to download. I said "Oh. Maybe I should try another factory reset". Tried it. Didn't work. "Okay, so maybe, I'll just unroot it by flashing a stock recovery image". Took an hour of my time (twice, by the way). You know what happened? That's right, you guessed it. Didn't work either.

The next day, I brought it to Best Buy, where I bought it. Sat there for half an hour, and the guy, just as perplexed as me as to how these obvious fix methods that should seriously have worked, but didn't, tried to fix my market problem.

So, my step before bringing it to the Sprint service center, is to ask the lovely XDA community, if you know what I can do.

I'm unrooted currently, in case you're wondering. And, as you may have guessed, there isn't an actual lack of space on either my internal memory or sd card.
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Have you reflashed everything via rsdlite? couldn't tell if that's what you meant or not, if not I'd try that.
[Motorola Photon 4G] silverballer95:
I actually got it to work again by finally figuring out how to get CM9 running. Now I just need to figure out how to reactivate my data again. I read that if I flash a ROM called Rocko ROM, I can activate my phone, and then reflash CM9. So I'll see how that works.
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Rocko is a stock based ROM so you can use it(or any other stock based for that matter) to activate your phone while unlocked.
