[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KLUVJ:
newer isnt always better, and ud have fhe sony bloat like timescape and stuff really is useless. also, think about this, sony has like 10 devices coming out soon,what do u think the developer support would be like？ ya you might get a custom rom with stock ics, but very veru limited choices. anyways, the sonys dont even have the newer gen hardware, so i wouldnt consider the sonys. maybe the htc one x or s3 but not sony
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
When did walmart start selling the GSM Nexus?!!?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DrDubzz:
That's true, but I'd like a new device sooner than later, the One X and S3 are a ways off, especially the S3. I do fear a lack of support for the Ion, but the camera is top notch, and that is genuinely important for snapping pictures of the kids. My captivate is running fine with ICS, but the camera is only ok. Plus, I'd like a little bit bigger screen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
The nexus is great for snapping pictures of kids because it has an instant shutter.

Phones aren't great at taking pictures for framing. They're great for snapping quick shots for Facebook and quick emails.

My G2x had a crisp camera but couldn't snap my kid without motion blur.

my wifi can't connect to my friends router (linksys wrt120n) .. it scans then connecting then suddenly disconnected .. what supposed to be the problem ?? :confused: .. i have cm7 n2 by adfad666 .. i have this problem for almost 2 months :(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Ipse_Tase:
Could be a million things going wrong...password, diff key algorithm, MAC address filtering (if he has it enabled on the router).

You need to do more troubleshooting before asking the question...give the forum a starting point.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Kraix:
Check to see if your phone supports the type of the router.

For example, if your router is N and you phone only supports g/b, it won't work.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] callmepanchito:
Check if the router supports as many devices are connected
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cool10156:
is it normal that my ip address in wifi settings is unavailable ??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Kraix:
I guess it is since you haven't connected to a network that would have assigned you an IP address.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shhbz:
it definately a prob with your router setting log into ur account and check setting as it works just fine in his built
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Ipse_Tase:
Ummm...NO. N is backwards compatible, both on 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Kraix:
Oh, sorry, my bad. It was just an (bad) example, the idea remains, because i had this problem with a friend's router.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] glarepate:
It would help to have more information about the way the router is set up, etc. Can other phones connect to it? Are you getting any error messages?

I bought a used WRT54GS a few weeks ago and couldn't get my phone connected over WiFi until I updated the firmware. You may want to look into that. It said it was connecting and then said disconnected. It never said it was connected though.

Once I got the new firmware installed then I was able to connect, encrypt the connection, etc.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cool10156:
~ we already updated the firmware but still got the problem .. we've done all troubleshooting we can do .. i even change my rom and kernel but nothing happens .. other device can connect to his router, mine was the only one that can't connect ...

btw i can connect to other wifi .. i guess the problem is in the router ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] glarepate:
Well, at least you know it's not your phone ...

Sorry to hear that.

If other devices can connect to it and yours can't, even with different ROMs and kernels, then it looks like this particular router just doesn't like your phone/setup for some reason. Especially since you can connect to other WiFi units.

Very frustrating.

If the router is set up to allow enough connections and isn't filtering out your phone's ==> WiFi <== MAC address then I don't know what else can be wrong.

Hope you can find a workaround, but I can't think of anything else at the moment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Guti1977:
At least this is what AT&T pronounced after announcing the official ICS update for the HTC Vivid.

Here take a look at this link from Android Central:

http://www.androidcentral.com/att-provides-ics-list-nothing-surprise-us

Question is: When????!!!!!! :mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vladm7:
for those interested, here is the original source:

http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=22620&cdvn=news&newsarticleid=34101&mapcode=consumer
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tylercarter:
Coming months! Well have ics pretty stable by the time it gets to us from att.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shadow65781:
The irony will be that ICS will be out for our phone the same week the sgs3 is released. (prediction)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] weedolo9y:
By then or devs will have a better ics then att any way
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:
By the time AT&T released ICS Entropy will probably have a JB pacifier ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
They already started pushing the update. Its sent over new high band microwave frequencies. You have to put your phone in the microwave in a bowl of water (so it doesn't over heat) and let it "download" for 3:00 on High. Must be high setting. Also they were very explicit: do not use the popcorn setting. It doesn't say way, but they said it voids your warranty and turns the water indicator yellow, so they'll know.

Just finished my update. TouchWiz can be disabled in the setup wizard, and the NFC chip works to charge my phone using the TouchStone without having to open the phone or solder anything.

Didn't everyone get the email? I had to use the web app because Gmail is bugging out for some reason.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:
Testing, will get back with results!

Edit:

Tested with an 1100 watt Samsung microwave and it triggers the phone into a secret update mode and well long story short I'm rocking Android 4.0.4!!

Do it now! Don't wait! Best Android experience evar!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
"coming" and "coming soon" are two entirely different things.

AT&T put out a press release just like this one in July or August stating that a number of devices including Infuse and Captivate would receive Gingerbread.

Captivate took until late January, Infuse got a bogus update in late January that was pulled quickly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] estxxas:
Weird. I tried this and it just cooked my phone. Gonna call AT&T now to see what the deal is... :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
The only thing more maddening than the delay in getting ICS is the constant stream of buffoons in here that keep making NEW threads about when ICS will be released.:mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] despree:
Beware popcorn method!

I tried it on the popcorn setting, and it does indeed seem to make the kernel pretty flaky. I would not recommend it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adelvillar:
They will take their sweet time

There is currently no business upside on AT&T to deliver an update at this point. We will have to wait for the S2 HD LTE to come out, as the flagship Samsung loaded ICS device for AT&T phone, which was just cleared by the FCC. Only after the market has had time to absorb these new devices, and they start outselling the S2 and the S2 Skyrocket it will be the point when we will see ICS.

Releasing ICS now makes no commercial sense for AT&T as it will not increase sales/upgrades of new phones.

A summer release will likely make more sense.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
Thats why you love me, cause I can stop 'em.

Redundant thread is redundant.

Thread closed since we already have a few ICS threads.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Quetzalcoatl:
So I wanted to try my hand at porting roms, and all the roms I saw that I wanted to try and port are gsm roms.

Is there a guide on how to port from gsm to cdma? I can't seem to find any guide for this:confused:

also, in which environment is it best to do this?

under linux or windows?
[EVO Shift 4G General] strapped365:
I guess the environment would depend on how deep your digging or if your going to compile from source, I've always used windows but that's because I've never even seen a Linux setup(start flaming now) unless in was in a virtual machine. There are many great windows tools out there to help along the way, one of my most used is m10editor and DSIXDA Kitchen..then some 7zip when I need to look in zips without extracting. Also on the GSM ports as of right now there would be no Wimax? I know last time I ported gsm 4G didn't work along with some other things. I just woke up tho and my phone hasn't been charged in about 3 days so ill hop on the pc in a bit and find a Sense to Sense port guide for you, that should work if It's a Sense ROM. I gave up on AOSP/MIUI a long time ago but I hope what I find you shortly works man :eek:

Sense to Sense Device porting instructions

General android porting tips/instructions

ill also PM you a guide that i have saved as a draft in my gmail box(thats where i take all my android notes lol) its for miui so i hope with the 3 guides( 2 posted and one PMED) you will get soemthing good, the only reason i dont have that guide posted here is because i didnt write it, it was pulled from some random google search one day and helped me get some issues fixed...anyways man heres all i can find right now, if ANYTHING pops in my head ill be sure to come back and let you know....happy devving

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toast7989:
I have run a search and surprisingly did not find my particular question..

How do I make a backup (image?) of my phone as it stands now...

I flashed a rom, everything is working to my liking and have backed up all my apps and settings via TB.

Is it possible to have a backup sitting on my PC that I can just flash with Odin or CWM that will restore my phone to how it is right now? Similar to a PC image?

Thanks in advance! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
Just make a nandroid backup using cwm and copy those backup files located in "clockworkmod " folder in SD card to your PC. Whenever you need to restore it back just copy back the files to.the same location and restore it via cwm.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toast7989:

[HTC Rezound] supreme329:
So im new to the Rezound but not to the rom and rooting world. I had made a N00b mistake by flashing ICS to my rezound without following the proper directions. Now I got myself in a situation that im hoping to get out of. When I try to boot it lets me get to my homescreen but then after 10's it restarts the phone. To top it off, I cannot mount my sd. It seems like the phone is getting worst by the minute. Is there a way out of this? Is there some sort of way to access my internal sd from my comp. Just at a clear loss of ideas. Please help.
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
What did you flash? Was it the new RUU? If you can get to your homescreen then you are still not in bad shape.
[HTC Rezound] supreme329:
The build from the android police leak. I never ran into these problems before. I had the Bionic for a while thought I would give HTC a whirl. My brain is at a stand still lol. I looked for hours and cannot find anything. I usually feel bad posting in a forum but hey im stuck.
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
I guess what I'm referring to is that you say you didn't follow directions. Which directions didn't you follow? The steps are pretty straight forward.
[HTC Rezound] supreme329:
Reading back, I flashed it with the bootloader unlocked and I wasnt supposed to. Also I was supposed to chancg something in a file and i neglected to do as well. Just looking for some type of solution to bail me out.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Flash the ruu then the Rom of your choice. All the instructions are in the ruu thread to lock, flash, unlock, recovery, etc. Then flash a Rom and not the AP one.

You also have the option to flash one of the ICS ROMe with the old firmware patch but I recommend the RUU path.
[HTC Rezound] bosox284:
Not to thread hijack, but just out of curiosity, why don't you recommend using the patch? I know some people prefer to because it doesn't mark the bootloader as tampered, but are there some adverse effects?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Just that the new firmware is more stable with the ROM and everything works as expected.
[HTC Rezound] Irieone:
Nils is right on this. You need to flash the RUU again. There are a lot of folks that needed to flash the RUU twice (myself included) to get everything to take.

It sound to me like you this happened to you. If you have the new RUU flashed properly, your phone will boot to the setup language preference screen.

If you had an incomplete/bad RUU update, you phone will boot to your last/current ROM with no SD or internal memory access. Nandroid backups won't restore properly either. Good luck, reflash the RUU with bootloader unlocked, allow system to reboot, flash a new recovery, and rock.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zacgoesrawr:
So I somewhat got Wiiremote support on the Vivid. I extracted the Bluetooth.apk from a Cyanogenmod rom.

1.) you need to have a odexed rom (I used rumraider b3)

2.) install the attached file by putting it in /System/app (i put it on my sd card and used root explorer)

3.) install Bluez IME and the HID addon (google it ;) )

4.) follow the IME's instuctions and select Wiimote (HID) for the device.

known problems:

lights continue to blink, it's connected and won't turn off but the lights blink instead of show the 1

use at your own risk, this worked for me, no one else has tested it. Let me know how it works for you
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] nielp96:
Sry if this is off topic ,will this work for ps3axis controller
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zacgoesrawr:
i'm not sure you can try? i don't see why it wouldn't.

The HTC Sense bluetooth apk is the "roadblock" for pairing the remotes. swapping it out should solve problems for all the pairing problems.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mjgreenjr:
You know, I never would have thought of trying this on my own. I've got a bluetooth device that won't sync properly with anything stock on the vivid but I had GB ROM that I think used the telstra bluetooth stack that worked perfectly. Since going to ICS it had stopped working again but after reading this post I decided to pull the Bluetooth.apk off that old ROM and it works perfectly again.

Thanks for the tip.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Rictamilk:
Is this possible on the new stock ATT ICS rom? How can I backup or get the original installer for bluetooth on this rom? Thank you.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] haggardh:
You can use a file browsing app like Root Explorer.

The Bluetooth.apk will be in system/apps. Mount system to R/W

move the original file to your sdcard somewhere.

And take the one posted in op's post up above.

And paste and install it in system/apps.

You need root permissions to do this though. Good luck.

Sent from my HTC Vivid.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Rictamilk:
It looked like I was able to just open the apk file posted and install it. Do you think this is possible? I didn't want to screw up my phone if I didn't have the original to replace it. Thanks.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zacgoesrawr:
it has to be put in the system apps folder because that's where the phone looks for the bluetooth support. also it needs some elevated permissions and isn't made to comply with superuser.

you can make a backup just in case :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Summersett:
Had it sync fine the first time I tried it, and then my dad called and my screen off profile was too low so my phone restarted lol. Now I can't get it to sync again! When I Activate Bluetooth with Bluez IME selected I get a "pairing request," and if I choose it from the notification menu it says to enter a PIN on the phone and device (which I can't because you can't enter a PIN on the wiimote, plus the IME isn't touch input anymore).

My steps:

Activate Bluetooth

Scan for devices - Nintendo RVL-CNT-01

Select Device Driver - Wiimote (HID)

Select IME - Bluez IME

Anddd the wiimote just times out. Any insight?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zacgoesrawr:
try uninstalling the apk that you installed via installer (not dropping in system/app) if you haven't already

then maybe try reinstalling bluez IME?

i wish i could be more help!

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] fadlyputra:
I installed air penguin from google play, and when I tilted my tab to the right the penguin went right, so I installed another accelerometer games and the result is same. the question is : is this just an app issue or accelerometer issue?

*sorry for my bad english.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] [David]:
Don't worry about that. First thing you have to do is testing the accellerometer (just to be sure)

If it's bad-calibrated, you just have to re-calibrate it

Go into Settings -> Screen..

Then you have to see HOW does the accellerometer work

You can even use AndroSensor here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fivasim.androsensor&hl=it and test it

Let us know
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] fadlyputra:
I tried it and the accelerometer works well, I think this is just an application issue. thanks for the help :D
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] amtrakcn:
I think there is a 90 degree pivot in accelerometer for our GT7+, and with another configuration somewhere else to keep the screen orientation normal. However some apps do not work with the latter part and behave awkardly on our Tab.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] sinuuar:
I tried this game a long time ago and it did the same for me (cartoon wars too). I never found the calibration option in the menu, so when i saw this post i was like AHA how the heck did i miss it!

Anyhoo i don't see this option on the settings menu at all. So is this a just one of the quirks with this tablet/games?

[
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] [David]:
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh nice to see this! I'm wondering if it's just a P6200 option...

Hey people with P6210, do you even have no "horizontal calibration" option in Screen settings??? :D

Please let us know...

Sent from my Galaxy Note with DarkyROM 3.3
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] k_t_b:
Yes, I have a GT-P6210MAYXAR here that does have this option. That is very strange. It should be the last option on the Screen settings page, titled "Horizontal calibration." This issue is new to me.

I'm almost certain I still had that option when I was running the LA3 firmware.

I switched back to KL1 so I could run garyd9's custom kernel.
[Kindle Fire General] Locklear308:
So...everything with My Fire running Cm9 has been great... EXCEPT...The processor governor ALWAYS resets it's self back to "PERFORMANCE" mode, no matter what I do. Reboots do nothing, I can change it to any other mode, exit, come back in. BAM. It's back on performance. Which is annoying because it seems to run warmer that way. Today I got it to stay in another mode for a about 4-5 minutes. In that time frame, the Fire didn't feel like a freaking "fire" It stayed in the 24 to 26 C range. Sudden...I felt it becoming warm even though I was just reading. I check my widget. Yep...Back at 30 to 33 C and running at 1.2 ghz non stop.

What is this? Is this a bug I can perhaps fix or is this not well known?

Also...What is a safe range for the Fire? Is 32 C too much?

Thanks!
[Kindle Fire General] BiteBlaze:
Few questions.... What version of CM9 (whos the dev), what kernel are you using, and what do you use to set your cpu?
[Kindle Fire General] Locklear308:
I shall email you my friend :D
[Kindle Fire General] Rittmeister:
Did you find a solution

Locklear, did you find a solution to your problem? I'm having the same problem - Kindle Fire with the CM9 Energy ROM by NRGZ28, 3/19/12 release. (Using the System -> Performance tab included in the ROM.) I've found that my Kindle seems to freeze up more when it gets hot; and it gets hottest when the clock speed has reset itself to Performance, 1300mhz max.
[Kindle Fire General] DJLamontagneIII:
Use set cpu you can get it for free from xda android app section and make sure to check set at boot
[Kindle Fire General] Rittmeister:
Thanks, I'll check that out.

I don't think I'm going to stick with this ROM, though, I'm experiencing very frequent freezes. It might be a bit too alpha for me... I want something rock-solid and very compatible. I might just go back to the stock OS, with a new launcher; or I might try another custom ROM. Smirkis' CM7KFire looks promising.
[Kindle Fire General] DJLamontagneIII:
Smirkis cm7 and hellfire cm7 are rock solid and will do anything you throw at it.
[Kindle Fire General] izomiac:
I had serious problems with the default Energy CPU settings as well. It took me about five tries before I could disable that @#$%! overclock and poor choice of governor. Many tablets aren't stable at 1.3 GHz, and the performance governor ensures they stay in that unstable state.

If you don't reboot normally after changing the setting then it won't stick. You have two options. Flash the stock CM9 kernel (which is more stable for me), or keep trying to disable the overclock and switch to a more sane governor, then immediately reboot. Eventually, with some luck, you can accomplish that before your tablet crashes. Putting the Kindle in a zip-lock bag and placing it in the refrigerator would probably help your odds.
[Nexus S General] swamp goblin:
Well i'm no expert with any of this, but it sounds more like a router issue.. If both your sidekick and nexus have the same characteristics of failing wifi, it cant be the devices..

If you've already reset your router and it does the same exact thing, maybe it is something wrong with the router itself. You said it connected fine at your sisters house, so it cant be any hardware within the phone.. The only thing I could think of is maybe try a different router in your house to see if it works? If that helps get rid of the connectivity issue, then you can just get a new router and be happy with the wifis :p
