Please help me!!!, I was updating my cell phone to ics. And I dont know what happend and now it's stucked on a screen that saids "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & Try again.

What can I do???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
Run the one click exe again. That screen your seeing is also download mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] armyveterangunner29:
Same thing happened to me. Just keep trying. Different USB ports, different cable...or use Odin to flash the ics TAR. Make sure Odin recognizes your phone and try. May have to repeat this process of "open odin one click, connect phone, hit start " or "open Odin, connect phone, select PDA, select appropriate TAR, hit start ". Keep trying dude. May fail a few times before it passes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
If u were using the oneclick ics odin from design gears do it again. If ur trying to install ics a different way. Then stop it. Its not for our device and you'll end up bricking

Why is what i want to know. Check the dev section. We have roms u can flash directly from gingerbread in cwm with out wiping anything. No issues smooth transition to ics

There's 2 collective roms. Available. That offer u a simple flash upgrade. No kernel or modem flashes nessicary
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jpvasquez:
Thank You

Apreciatte all of your help. I've dowloadead a stock tar and now its working fine. I would like to know if any of you know a safe way to update to ics?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
You need to stop flashing and read the forum first. Understand what you are doing before you do it

[General Questions and Answers] hawkeyes2002:
Noob here. I've done my best to find an answer on my own so my apologies if a straight-forward answer already exists elsewhere.

I'm running Codename 1.2 on my Galaxy Nexus (not interested in updating right now). I've successfully flashed my own custom icons for battery, signal meter, 3G/4G, and wi-fi in the status bar.

What I can't figure out how to do is space them out appropriately. Specifically, the Codename stock 3G/4G icon is a small superscript that overlaps the signal meter (it shows up in the upper-left area of the signal meter right above the first couple of bars). I want to "separate" these two icons so I can make the 3G/4G icon full size and place it to the left of the signal meter.

Any help would be much appreciated.

All my syncs work, except my "internet sync" which I believe is the one necessary for the play store to automatically download and install my apps on to my new device.

Anyone else encountered this?
[HTC EVO 3D] lhayati:
Hey,

I'm currently using King Cobra v2.1 and it lets you select between kernels in the installation process. I'm one for battery life (LeeDroid was killing it).

I'm currently using the Stock HTC Kernel, but i've heard the Anryl Kernel is good for battery life too. When I look on Anryl's rom page, there is not much info of the Kernel.

I would really appreciate it if someone could just list a few pro's and con's between the too.

Thanks,

Louis

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Therealtahu:
Is this phone salvageable? I have quite the odd problem. I have plenty of backups, so I'm not worried about fully wiping the Nexus S.

I was running CM9 Alpha 11 when I heard about the ICS 4.0.4 OTA update for the I9020A. I rebooted into my recovery to make a nandroid backup. That's when the problems started. Mounting /sdcard, /system and /data fail, but mounting /cache works. Attempting to mount to USB Storage gives a "Unable to write to ums lunfile" error. When I noticed that the backups weren't taking, I tried to reboot normally but encountered bootlooping. As a last resort, I tried "fastboot oem unlock" but it freezes. Battery pull gives "FAILED (status read failed (too many links))" on windows.

Model: Nexus S I9020A

HW Version: Rev 16

Bootloader: I9020XXKA3

Baseband: I9020UCKF1

Carrier: ATT

ROM: CM9 Alpha 11

Recovery: ClockworkMod Touch Recovery v5.8.0.2

Bootloader: Locked

Busybox: v1.19.3-cm9

Accessible: fastboot, adb, adb shell with #, busybox, and recovery.

Symptoms: Bootlooping, unmountable /sdcard, /system and /data, cannot mount to USB Storage, bootloader does not unlock.

EDIT: Found this unfortunate bit of news. Looks like I'll be sending it in for repairs and hoping they won't notice the recovery.

EDIT2: I found out that I can flash zip files through a roundabout method to mount /cache as /sdcard. Unfortunately, all I've been able to do is to flash recovery since system and everything else isn't mounted. I haven't been able to get ./flash_image to work. I've tried making the mounts executable as well as flash_image. My last option is looking for the "Android system recovery <3e>" in the form of a .zip and flashing that so it looks like my warranty is still intact.

After this, you can use the recovery to flash the update. So far, I've tested going back and forth between ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.0 and ClockworkMod Touch Recovery 5.8.0.2.

EDIT3: ./flash_image doesn't work. However, flash_image works because I have busybox installed on my phone.

Can you recommend me a good Hotmail msn app
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
There is none... They all just take u to mobile site... It's terrible :mad:
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
ive been using trillian for years, its possibly the best IM on Windows, and Android.

hopefully they integrate Skype like they did on windows soon though
[HTC Amaze 4G] AndroidAutobot:
My advice, don't rely on Microsoft for anything lol. If yahoo can develop a proper mail and IM app for their Android users, I see no reason why Microsoft couldn't other than being stubborn and not willing to develop for Android because they're a rival (they wish) with windows phone 7 lol.
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
Is it just for I'm or is it for actual Hotmail/live.com?
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
its just for IM, maybe I read the op wrong xD

the desktop version has mail integrated though (hotmail, gmail, aol) and skype. they might/should bring it to mmobile

[Motorola Droid Bionic] ztkryan:
Quick question guys thinking of geting a bionic from a friend but I have a few questions first

1. I see there is and awesome noob root and custom rom guide however how easy is it to go back completely to stock for warranty reasons with my charge I could just use a cwm install to get back to stock is it that easy for the bionic or is more required?

2. Does the bionic have a working ics port yet?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kennydied23:
1. Is not as simple as the charge, but yes. there are guides on how to go back to stock from a custom ROM. Follow them to a T and you shoud be good.

2. Theres a few ics roms, axiom, gummy, etc. just look in the development section or on rootzwiki. You're going to have to install a safestrap or cwm bootstrap in order to use them though.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Averix:
Don't

Sorry to be blunt, but don't get a Bionic. Sadly, this phone has become a leper in Motorola's lineup. It seems like they shifted so much attention to the Razr/Maxx so fast that this one has been left behind. I wouldn't expect the official ICS build on the Bionic until way later than the Razr, if at all.

Aside from the apparent lack of love from Motorola, there's some goofiness on the Bionic with images not containing radio versions and such that cause some extra hoops to jump through if you got off the beaten upgrade path when messing around with it.

The screen on the Bionic isn't that good either in my opinion. Unless you're getting one for dirt cheap, don't.

Obviously, others may have a different opinion.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
really how many people are going to post this every week just freaking search dude!! or try it out for a week or so and if you don't like it return it!!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Windiddy:
Dont get a bionic unless you find one for free...I'd def get Galaxy Nexus or RAZR.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SpeKtroNet:
I agree with Averix, do not get a Bionic even for free!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Haloman800:
If you can find one around $200 I would. I had one, it's an excellent phone. never lagged, speedy, etc. personally I'd rather have a Bionic than a Nexus, with HDMI, a microS card slot, & much much better build quality. The phone's have identified specs (dual core lmao, 1GB ram, FCC, etc) besides the above. ICS will come, it's not even needed to make this phone great, as there aren't any problems with GB, and there are still several excellent ROMs a soluble if flashing is your thing. People just need to be more patient.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Hans5849:
I liked my Bionic now that I've rooted it. I'm not a fan of the stock OS. Currently I'm on Eclipse 2.2 because I had problems with Gummy.

-First post
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ming3r:
Bionic with ICS here - I like it, but I think it's time to switch it up. If you're used to constant flashing...don't look for it here =/
[Motorola Droid Bionic] skay:
Personally I have 2 bionics and find them to be very stable, good (not great) screen rez and can be purchased on eBay for a decent price (I got both of mine for around $180). RAZR's and GNEX are going to run a lot more, though I admit they are both superior devices. For me I simply wanted a dual core w/ very good LTE performance (Hotspot at home) and I get around 15-20Mbps-down, 12-16Mbps-up at home and on the road. ICS would be a plus but I would rather wait 4-5 months when VZW ships an update. I decided NOT to use my upgrade yet, I would rather wait for the next gen of phones w/ Tegra 3 or Exynos Quad processors and hang with the Bionic for the time being.

But if you want to be on a devices with regular ROM updates, yeah the ship has sailed on the Bionic.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cordripper:
DO NOT GET THE BIONIC. though i am still using it and toughing it out for the moment. Moto really screwed all Bionic users in 2 ways:

1. the phone in stock OS is terrible. it is slow, laggy, atrocious battery life (even with extended battery) and has many bugs that updates have not fixed.

2. Moto delayed its release for so long that they rolled out the RAZR (which has much better hardware and runs much smoother) a month after the bionic effectively stabbing all Bionic users in the back by killing further development of the bionic. A lot of developers have jumped ship from the Bionic to new phones. It looks like the RAZR will be getting ICS before the Bionic showing that Moto doesn't have much loyalty to the Bionic.

If you're gonna get a new phone, get a RAZR MAXX
[Motorola Droid Bionic] denpad2010:
Agree eclipse 2.2 on bionic is awesome excellent battery life ;-)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
If you can get a bionic for a price you like. Great phone. Not the most development for it, but its still better than most androids in users hands right now. If you like flashing a lot, go with HTC or the nexus. I've been.seeing people sell their nexus for cheap on Craigslist lately. I wouldn't get a nexus though. No HDMI and screwey 3 on screen button is a deal breaker for me. Android been using 4 buttons for so long, I see no reason to change that's up.

The majority of the complaints about the bionic can be found with any android. At this point, a lot of it is nitpicking.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bo W:
Came from the Droid X and found a gently used bionic with an extended battery and door and the stock battery and door with the lapdock for 200 bucks. In less than an hour had it rooted and gave Gummy ICS, liberty 3.2 (radio didt work. I'm on 902.) and settled on eclipse 2.2. It's a major improvement over the X. And I still have something to look forward to when ICS matures or even Jelly Bean is released.

I'm happy
[Motorola Droid Bionic] memert:
I just recently upgraded to bionic from an incredible 2 and love it. Plus I couldn't beat the deal Verizon gave me. Traded in the incredible, got the bionic, extended battery, shell and holster, screen protectors, headphones and a car charger and only spent four dollars.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] themonkbythesea:
Bionic has some pros over Razr

I actually decided on the Bionic over the Razr/Razr Maxx for a few reasons:

1. Bionic fits very securely into the Bionic Lapdock. I can sit in bed, on train, plane, etc., with the Bionic in the Bionic Lapdock and it stays in securely. I much prefer this over the Razr and the Lapdock 100/500 which is a universal Lapdock that very loosely hold the Razr. I found unless you are sitting at a table with these Lapdocks and Razr, than it is going to be cumbersome to use with the Lapdock. Also, easier to just drop Bionic straight into Bionic Lapdock than having to fiddle with cable of Lapdock 100/500.

2. Bionic Lapdock's build is much better. Bionic Lapdock is aluminum and feels more sturdy than plastic of Lapdock 100/500 used with the Razr.

- theses reason were more specific to use with Lapdock obviuosly, which for me was a deciding factor. however, Bionic has another pro I feel is overlooked, and that is its removable battery...

3. Bionic has removable batteries. Though everyone goes on about battery life of Razr Maxx, it is still not removable. Granted, it last a long time, but when it runs out, then what? Unless u got charger with you, you are out of luck. With Bionic I can easily carry a couple of extra batteries with my Lapdock to keep me going as long as i need. And I do not have to be tied down to a charger cable and outlet if Razr Maxx runs out of juice. I am often on Bionic with Lapdock in coffee shops, web browsing on LTE, streaming Pandora, editing files, the whole works. Even the Razr Maxx cannot keep up with me. And I never get a seat by a power outlet. With Bionic, I carry a extra battery and extra battery wall charger and usually have this extra battery charging on wall while i work across the room. When one battery runs out, i simply walk over, switch out batteries, and while I'm using up the new one, I still got one charging and I do not need to be tied to a cable. Works great. Razr Maxx cant do that and LTE is a killer.

Raxr Maxx = 3300mah

Bionic Batt = 1760mah....get 2 of them and swap one out while another is charging with a extra battery wall charger and you got = unlimited battery life = unlimited mah!!...for cheap!!

The extra bulk, updates of Bionic, dont compare to this nearly inexhaustible battery life with removable batteries that everyone seems to overlook with Razr Maxx. Plus I got my Bionic, extra batteries, extra battery wall chargers and other accesories for less than what Razr Maxx costs. Bionic all the way for me! Now just give me ICS with Webtop 3.0 tablet mode and I do not see a phone in sight for the price that has this many features.

Nice phone.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Hello_Robert:
I got mine on sunday. Traded in my iphone and inspire, got 4 phones and still wont have a bill for two months... 1 bionic, 2 pantechs, 1 cosmos.. and ill still save money over my att plan i had for 3 phones..

Looking at rooting my bionic.. any suggestions?

Verizon Baby!!! My Droid Bionic!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rumblee1:
Have had the bionic since day one and only had the lost data issue a couple of times. Since the updates, it's a great phone. Good looks, super fast, very customizable. I'm keeping it for the duration of the two year contract which I usually don't do. That's how much I love it. The only thing I did was get the extended battery so I'd have no issues making it through a full day of heavy usage. Once again. Great phone. With all that being said, if I didn't have bionic and had an upgrade, then the RAZR maxx is a no brainer.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Hello_Robert:
Just rooted!!

Verizon Baby!!! My Droid Bionic!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] EEwny:
Bionic is a good phone but depending on what you want and when you want it you maybe better off with the razr.

+ they fixed the bugs in the bionic, its a great phone now

- battery life could be better on bionic

+ removable batteries and wireless charging back are great

If the lapdock is in your mind at all and you want/need it today go with the razr. Webtop 3.0 will actually make good use of your lapdock. Regular webtop on the bionic is horrible imo. I even modded mine to the sd card and put linux on. Still is too slow and crashes all the time on webpages. It just isnt worth the stress until ics comes to bionic. Which will be a while.

So if you do want lapdock now go with razr. If you want to save some bucks and still get a great phone and* still get lapdock features in the future consider bionic.

I have a bionic lapdock i got for 75 bucks waiting in the corner. I still think its a good investment.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalata_rs:
I have noticed that the messages are only long 70 symbols compared to other phones that have 160 per message. And when I write a longer message it shows that is a MMS?

Can someone explain to me why is that,and do I get charged for a MMS message instead of normal one?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akiainavas:
If you get 70 characters instead of 160, it means you're using non-english characters. All letters with dots, circles, or any other diacritical marks count as a non-standard character and cause your text to fit only 70 characters.

Stock messaging app will convert long text messages to MMS, and for now - there is no way to prevent that. You can always use another app to text people.

And yes, you're being charged for a converted MMS message according to your carriers prices.

Solutions:

- Don't use language specific characters. Just standard english.

- Don't write texts longer than 3x160 ( or 3x70 )

- Use third-party messaging app if you want to avoid auto-converting.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalata_rs:
