Hmm! So the nasty people at Samsung took away my camera lock screen. Can anyone else confirm they have the notifications and camera on the ICS lock screen? (However this isn't on my Archo)

The next question is can we get hold of the stock ICS lock screen?

[Kindle Fire General] tomgohanken29:
I tried to root my kindle through, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24128777 , but I got half way and got stuck at the fastboot mode. I don't have recovery or anything because it was a stock 6.3 kindle fire. Does anybody know how to get out of this? The adb isn't recognizing my device right now and I've tried hard resetting.

Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: Is the only way out of this is through a factory cable?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
what means got half way ?

you switch to fastboot at a point - then adb commands are not recognized

only fastboot commands are recognized in fastboot mode

would try to issue:

fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product - it should return "kindle"

if not check your drivers

if you got the drivers working resume with the above manual

about drivers:

[Kindle Fire General] tomgohanken29:
Oh. Is that it? :D. So is it normal for the cmd command "adb devices" to not show the kindle device?

If so, that's a pretty big relief! And all I need to do is type that cmd?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
you have a great manual here explaining how the kf works:

furthermore this one could help you to understand how drivers/bootmode/commands correlate:

[Kindle Fire General] bahlsie:
I'm having a similar problem. I can boot into fastmode but when I try to reboot, it just seems to hang with a <waiting for device> message. I get the same <waiting for device> message if I do the fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product command.

I am stuck in TWRP and if I hit reboot, the command prompt does return the info.

OK, it appears that the KF didn't update. It was just stuck in some weird boot loop or something. Maybe it was trying to update and couldn't for some reason? I am keeping all this info bookmarked in case something does happen though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] senectus:
So since I've had my GNote I've found that I quite often have to install nearly all updates twice...

Its weird.. as soon as I see an update for any apps I've installed I tend to compulsively update it immediately.

Then a few hours or a day later, the exact same apps have updates again. and it seems to be pretty much ALL updates.

Any idea what's going on here?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SpyderTracks:
I had exactly the same. Was on stock kka initially then updated ota to xxla6 with phone provided by O2.

Lost my root cost of fiddling, so reinstalled kka via samfirmware, then updated with mobile Odin back up to la6 again from samfirmware. The double downloads has stopped, but more interestingly, the whole market interface is slightly different, for the better. I have 2 screens on my apps, installed and all, plus am able to filter comments by my device and latest version, never had these options previously...

The Device still powers up and connects via HDMI

Need to replace the housing (mostly broken)

LCD and digitizer should have no cracks or webbing

Also in need of accessories for it

[Eee Pad Transformer General] vacuuum:

I figured with people getting their transformers bricked or broken by ICS

There would be some that would rather part with the unit than try and fix it

So I think it would be a win-win for both the seller and I

I get to fix my transformer on the cheap and they get some money for a broken device @_@
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Sziehr:
If it was me, I would buy a new one and mount the old one to the back of my tv and buy a wireless keyboard.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Bricked or broken? No. Endlessly rebooting? Yes. But either Asus or a third party will eventually fix that. Nobody's going to sell working hardware to you because of a boot problem, or at least not at a price that would make repairing a run-over tablet sensible.

Just bin it and buy a new one. It'll be cheaper.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vacuuum:
Let me rephrase it, Bricked or broken by flashing

Well, if it's bricked then there is no use for it but for parts.

That is why I'm hanging around forums to see if anyone is willing to sell for cheap

There are a couple of broken tablets in ebay but I've had much better luck dealing with people on forums.

on the flip side... I can post pictures soon >.>
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
And where did you see reports of ICS bricking the TF101? I haven't seen any...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
most TFs (i think all) are still within manufacturer warranty...so if there were an epidemic of TFs bricking due to ICS upgrades...asus would still be responsible for em..

and i think even if out of warranty, a bad firmware update would require asus to fix the device.

anyway...pics or it didn't happen :P
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vacuuum:
That is the reason I rephrased my statement...

[About XDA developers] TheOldMonk:
Hi there.. :),

I am a new member so posting my PM content composed for "Maclaw" here in form of a request thread.

I need your kind help in porting your "CyanogenMod 9.0.0 Release for Samsung Galaxy Ace" <<TO>> Motorola Fire XT (Also known as Motorola Fire XT XT530, Motorola XT531, Motorola SPICE XT) as the hardware for both of these phones is very much identical.

Many owners of fire XT have already rooted their phone successfully :D. (just waiting or a custom ROM support :( )

As per your post here the release is beta "5" mode (CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC0-GT-S5830-GalaxyICS-KANG-beta5).

Many members across XDA are looking forward to have a custom ROM for this smartphone. Please help me/us; the stock gingerbread sucks:mad:.

I am ready to help you but as I actually don't own the phone till now* (buying soon) BUT others who do own it will get back to you.

I think that as the hardware specs are nearly identical then in that case we shouldn't face any serious problems while porting it to motorola fire xt.

Waiting for a positive reply,:D

Thanks & Regards,

[About XDA developers] iok1:
Unfortunately the project is called GALAXYics, It's to port ics to the low-end Samsung Galaxy phones. That is why mikegapinski's project for lg-gt540 is not in Galaxyics (it's built on it though)

But who knows I might have misunderstood it completely, but for now it's probably not gonna happen, sorry :(
[About XDA developers] TheOldMonk:
Thanks for replying :)

Well.. :( was wishing if some dev. could help us out. (owners of Moto fire xt)
[About XDA developers] Dr. Hurt:
The problem is not really porting the OS itself. It is finding a way to boot it on our phones that poses the challenge. Motorola uses secure boot and does not allow unlocking the boot loader.

I tried overcoming this problem by faking signatures, but ended up bricking the phone.

After some reading, I found out that all modern motorola phones have the same problem. Devs were able to load clockwork mod without touching the stock recovery or interfering with secure boot. This was done by a process called boot strapping (or 2nd-init). This requires a more skilled person than me.

Once we get clockwork mod on our Fire XT, porting ICS to our phone would be a piece of cake especially building upon the work of Maclaw for the ace.
[About XDA developers] giri_189:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AG1991:
So I've been hunting for an SMS app that will allow me to use my work phone to send texts via my personal phone either thru bluetooth/wifi/ or data.

We finally just got new Motorola Droid X2s for our work phones but we have no texting plans on our phones. So I wanted to be able to use texting via my personal phone so I dont have to check both phones all the time.

The only app I have found so far is TexTab but the tablet option is basically tablet only (go figure) and the ui for it is cluttered and sucks to use on a phone.

So does anyone know of anything else that may work?

[Nexus S General] LGIQEXPO:
I read online once something I found very true and applicable to our phones. "You can take a brand new Mustang and race it against a brand new Accord, and of course the Mustang would win, but when it comes to aftermarket and what you can do with a little know-how the Accord wins hands down thanks to all the available parts and mods". Our Nexus S is far from a 'New phone' by today's standards, but personally, it is still the phone I chose to stick with thanks to those on XDA Developers.

The Nexus S was thee first phone to get a working port of ICS, thee phone that brought Android 2.3 to the world, and was the first phone to get MIUI v4.0 and countless other ROMs. That alone is something most any other smartphone doesn't hold a candle to.

The reason I posted this was to ask you, was there ever a moment using you Nexus S where something just impressed you? Something just made you go 'WOW' or made you love you phone even more? For me I was just out and about with the nice weather and I took a few pictures, I wasn't expecting much, I was walking on a bridge and just pulled my phone out quick a few times, and painlessly shot some pictures... the impressing part came the next day when I showed someone the pictures, and even though I was hardly focused on taking a impressive good picture, the phone stunned me! I was so impressed by how clear the pictures came out and I imported them onto my laptop to see in more detail just how nice these quick-pics turned out! Not to mention how simple and smooth the phone was to share those pictures. Just click click and bam!

I attached the pictures below if you wanted to see :)
[Nexus S General] zgomot:
I love the design. I LOVE IT. I think it's the best-looking phone on the market right now. Many might not agree, but they don't need to. I find the phone very sleek, sexy, elegant, high-tech and that curved screen is just too much sexy for words.

Then, similarly to LGIQEXPO, I was blown away by the quality of the camera. Coming from an HTC Desire, which took blurry, washed out, white-ish pics I found the Nexus S to be FANTASTIC.

These aside, I'm still very surprised by how smooth and fast it runs. I tried lots of roms and just about when I was about to stop searching and stick with Codename Android (1.5.5) I found HAKA's Androxide. OCed to a measly 1200MHz my phone flies. I sometimes compare it to my fiancee's unrooted, stock Galaxy Note and it's really not that much slower...

I do feel lots of :envy: and :greed: about the newer phones... I'd love to own a Galaxy Nexus, or an HTC ONE X, or even a Sensation XE, but I am generally very very pleased with the Nexus S.

Oh, did I mention the stupidly sexy design?
[Nexus S General] jesusice:
I also love the sexily curved design, it just feels so nice to hold. I got my NS4G in November through a warranty replacement coming from the HTC Ego Shift (aka Speedy). My Shift could OC as high as 1.8ghz but what really has impressed me about the NS is that it is just as smooth and responsive as my Shift was even at the default 1ghz!

@OP: Those are really nice pictures, where is that?
[Nexus S General] leepcharge:

[Nexus S General] Nexism:
I find something new to love about my phone every day.

My co-worker uses an HTC one day he came to work up in arms about carrierIQ (I didn't know what it was). While researching it I discovered that Nexus is one of the few device families that was not "Infected" with it and as a Nexus user carrier imposed malware was not something I had to worry about. Needless to say I was a proud NS4G user that day :)

What impresses me is the performance of the phone. it doesn't lag or freeze... so why upgrade just yet. Plus the screen is just gorgeous. Whenever I get the urge to upgrade I remind myself how badly I wanted this phone when it was released.
[Nexus S General] Braneless:
I still can't progress beyond the 'accord beats mustang' analogy. The Mustang aftermarket is enormous and 500+ rwhp is easily achievable, while likely not possible with the Accord's stock block.

Sorry if that was just a quick analogy and not meant to be construed as a legitimate comparison of capabilities.

As far as the ns4g... I have to say I was more impressed by my old Evo 4G :( I miss the evo's form factor, otterbox cases, and absolutely huge development support - with both Sense and aosp roms available.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] theanykey:
Moreover, I've said it before and I'll say it again:

LITHIUM ION BATTERIES DO NOT NEED TO BE CALIBRATED. They have no "memory" effect. There's a charge circuit built into them that constantly monitors the voltage of the battery.

Attempting to calibrate a lithium ion battery will actually cause more wear in a shorter period of time than had you simply left it alone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] InMyBedNow:
Sometimes when you flash ROM to ROM, old batterystats get left behind and mess up the battery. I had a glitch where it said the battery was full but the percentage was only at 92%. I'm not sure if this is a calibration glitch or just a kernel glitch, but calibrating it fixed it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] voyager20021:
This is actually one way to calibrate battery.

And calibration means the accurate way to read batt level by ROM, which by any means, cannot harm battery itself.

Not calibrating i had the surprise to wake up with more batt than i went to sleep with. Or, as said here, you can find out that the ROM is indicating you have less batt than you actually do. I goess that is the only thing that can go wrong. Anyways, i only calibrate when flashing new ROM or restorin a backup. And i use BatteryCalibration from market.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Marius Cristian:
I don't know about you guys but everytime I flash a new rom I charge to 100%,reboot in recovery and wipe everything +battery stats.From time to time I prefer to do a calibration process.It's something that i found on lg-p500.ru and works for me.If anyone is interested how I calibrate my battery,look here .

Edit: just in case you don't get the +1.. ''LITHIUM ION BATTERIES DO NOT NEED TO BE CALIBRATED''

It is recommended that you DONT let your battery fully discharge, ever (it shortens its life) that is one of the reasons android notifies you have a low battery on 20%.
