[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
Hi all, I'm new to posting here but a vet over at samdroid.

I've looked around quite a bit and my problem seems to be unique...annoyingly.

I got my S2 on contract from O2 about 4 days ago, instantly went home and found out I was eligible to upgrade to ICS officially via kies. I have been on kies and connected my phone every day since, and I keep getting told I have the latest version (2.3.5), even though I've seen countless threads/comments of people delighted about the fact they upgraded through kies!

I was thinking of trying odin (i was a pro at updating roms on my spica), but don't know if using an offical update through odin instead of kies would void my warranty etc. NOTE: I don't want to actually root my phone (yet)

I hope that all made sense and any help would be much appreciated

Thanks,

Oli
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
make sure you got i9100 not any other varient

does other O2 in your area got ICS via KIES

odin is fine and will not void warrenty aslong you dont root and flash back the ROM you have now. you have to find this ROM first if you want to go back.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
well o2 have officially released updates in the UK, if thats what you mean? will there be a thread on this forum with the offical ICS ROM or will i have to find it via google?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broomhead123:
I got my S II on monday from o2 and I beleive its the I9100p not the I9100, if yours has NFC written on the back its the I9100p and for some reason there is no ICS on kies yet for it :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
:mad: RAAAGEE! i dont want cruddy NFC anyway! it has no uses yet! do you know if there is an official rom for it that i can download or have they not released anything for it yet?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
did'nt my first option was to see if you got i9100 and not other varients.....

well first see what version you have than will see what to do.

also write what ver software your running.

there is nothing really achieved in stock ics so dont be sad.

the big problem is being on contract that robs using custom roms ( real ics feel)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
what do you mean by this?

also is there an official rom for my particular S2 that can be updated using odin? or even an unofficial one that wont void warranty?

thanks for all the help guys :o
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netban:
This Thread has instructions and official ICS.

Plz note that this is official and will have TouchWiz and does look extremely similar to Gingerbread and without root and custom theme you will not get that ICS feel. You will however get most of the goodies that ICS has to offer.

I got my S2 on contract from O2 about 4 days ago, instantly went home and found out I was eligible to upgrade to ICS officially via kies.

Well that's not exactly true you upgrade if their is an upgrade for your exact phone .

Kies has firmware for GT-i9100KAO2U product code .

I have been on kies and connected my phone every day since, and I keep getting told I have the latest version (2.3.5), even though I've seen countless threads/comments of people delighted about the fact they upgraded through kies!

But not for your phones product code which obviously does not match the released O2 firmware .O2 may well and probably over twelve months had more than one phone for sale unless contract has different codes to PAYG .

Standard older O2 UK firmware for xxx Product codes is on Kies its also on this forum in a legitimate flash via Odin .

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1544487

legitimate O2 firmware not stock Samsung tested and works on O2 .

Or you can go to Google find CHECKFUS and try to download from your codes .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
you still didnt confirm if you have i9100P which i think you have but i could'nt find the Stock ROM your running now, so you can go back to it later if required.

if you have i9100P this thread has good news for you though the actuall thread is stupid and useless...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24030713

i think what happened to u is you got the model which is i9100P not the usuall i9100, thus all on normal model are on ICS and you still on GB. you can wait for it to come or use the i9100 ROM's but please search if that is actually possible.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
so which one there should i use? and can someone remind me if "flashing" just means updating (it's been ages since i used odin and stuff so i've forgotten a lot of the terms.)

thanks

continue at your own risk!

strangly i cant find if i9100P is available on O2 not even on checkfus
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
i read somewhere that i can use i9100 firmwares on my i9100P, so which of those 2 links would you recommend? also, is there a lot of risk or is it pretty easy and you're just covering yourself?

finally, if i update like this, will i be able to update officially through kies when the update is finally released for me?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
no im not covering my self...... i tell you in points....

1: you got I9100P on O2 for which i cant find a firmware for.

2: because you cant go back to your old firmware which is O2 you will get into warrenty problems
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
ok, i guess i'll wait for the official update then. thanks for your help
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
here are your options if you still want to continue.

1: you can flash stock firmware for i9100.

2: you can flash custom firmware

3: you can flash O2 branded firmware for i9100.

but in all cases NFC wont work by default.

plus now you cant go back to O2 i9100P firmware as it cannot be found anywhere... atleast by me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oli17:
is NFC the only difference between I9100P and I9100?

Does anyone know how to downgrade to 9.4.2.15/17 from 9.4.2.21? I am hoping to root the 9.4.2.15/17 and then install root keeper and then OTA back up to 9.4.2.21.

Thanks,

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Namidairo:
Most likely a method involving soft-bricking the device then sticking the update zip for .15 somewhere? (/sdcard or the actual (micro)sd card slots I think)

And even then it might refuse the update because its older than current.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drherron:
you need to search for this. there are threads about downgrading and the procedure you seek.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yumms:
But those downgrading procedures require root.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
This was the other method if you didnt have root. But if you go to the next page someone tried but didnt work. Maybe you might have better luck....Gluck!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jbgtenn:
Me Epic Touch that is using Verizon Towers is constantly dropping signal, I have tried every modem from EK - FD but nothing has seem to help. I tried with Page Plus original Prl which shows roaming and didn't help and also loaded other Prl's that doesn't show roaming all the time that Straight Talk uses, but it does the same thing. I have had many Sprint Phones activated on Verizon side and never had any problems like I am having now and My Cousin has The same phone also which is on Page Plus and his phone behaves the same way. Was wondering if any of you that have this phone and flashed it to Verizon are experiencing the same thing? If anyone has any opinions or could weigh in on what I might be able to try or maybe tweak on this phone that might help I would greatly appreciate thanks. Forgot to mention that I have tried both stock and Ics roms and when signal drops it will have a circle with lone threw it but I don't have to reboot phone signal always come back seconds later but trying to hold a conversation on this phone is bout impossible without 2 dropped calls in a 30 minute period.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Is the phone activated on Verizon or are you just using their towers for some particular reason? Keep in mind there are issues outside of the phone that may affect connectivity - I just had this happen with our local Sprint tower last week. Took a week for Sprint to confirm the problem was the tower and fix it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ZachZombify:
If you made a nandroid backup before you changed the prl (witch is what you should do before messing around with anything to do with your phone) flash back to it, see if that helps at all.

HTC Hero -> Epic 4G -> Epic 4G Touch
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jbgtenn:
It is activated on Verizon unlimited plan. I also have a nanroid back up of the stock rom behaved the same way. At first I though it was Page Plus being I never used them and gave them a try instead of always worying about data issues with ST. I let my time run out on Page Plus and and switched to Verizon new 50 unlimited pre-pay but still acts the same way.

[Motorola Photon 4G] MinceMan:
Nice find, I was ble to get docs to go for free from Amazon but am buying this just to see how I like it. Anything with a tablet interface really makes me think that they're concerned about interface and that is extra points in my book!

Update: I've only used this for a couple minutes on my tab 10.1 and can safely say it is the best office I have used so far. I've used docs to go (my previous fav) Polaris office and quick office. I love the huge text selection tabs, they rock and unlike others simply work. I also like the quick format bar that is always available and support for the action bar, though those could have been combined. It opens to a file explorer that works great on the tablet. I think all of these great features will transfer nicely to the photon when I check it out on there.

(This may sound like a dumb question, but I'm a noob and I've never rooted an Android device before. I've done a jailbreak a few times, though.)

So today I've installed Elelinux's Android 2.3.7 on my HTC Hero G2 Touch. I'm looking for a way to root my device. I've found one here, but I'm not sure if it will work because it says I need Android version 2.1 while I have 2.3.7.

Does anyone know a way to root my device on this version?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeatsByMessi:
your already rooted! :)

theres no way you would have been able to install that rom if you weren't rooted BUT you say you've never rooted an android device before :confused:

was the phone brand new when you bought it or was it second hand? because if its second hand its possible that the previous owner had already rooted the device

I fixed that today on my own, some of the holo-light graphics were duplicates of holo-dark hence the black on some apps - stock ICS calendar was another. On my phone now but I can provide steps I did once I get on my computer tomorrow. Took me days to figure out it was this theme that was doing it ;)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pixelens:
So basically this is what I did (working with ICSLook14Toggles13.zip linked above by edgex, tried the RacingV2ICSL14T but there was no 14 toggles in it for me):

1. Opened ICSLook14Toggles13.zip with 7-zip.

2. Navigated to \system\framework\framework-res\res\drawable-hdpi

3. dragged the following files from a folder on my desktop into the drawable-hdpi folder that's open in 7-zip: ab_bottom_solid_light_holo.9.png, ab_solid_light_holo_9.png, ab_stacked_solid_light_holo.9.png

4. backed out of 7-zip, accepting the message about changes and resaving

5. copied revised zip file to phone

6. reflashed in CWM after clearing cache, fixed permissions after flashing

I've attached a before and after screen as well as a zip file with these three files. Fixed both Gmail and the top bar on the calendar app. As I mentioned previously, and you'll notice when you open drawable-hdpi, the light_holo images were duplicates of the dark_holo images.

I've also confirmed that this is the way it looks ASOP (on a Nexus).

Hope that helps!

[Nokia Lumia 900] kkrull:
Local AT&T rep thought that the Lumia 900 had visual voicemail - specifically that the phone would lookup your messages, display the caller ID and let you listen to and delete messages independently with the phone UI. Can anyone verify this?
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
From the WPCentral review: "Finally, the Lumia 900 does support AT&T’s Visual Voice Mail system. To enable it, simply make sure you have an LTE plan on your account (it’s the same cost as your standard data plan) and then setup your voicemail by calling it. After the prompts and when you hang up, the device will setup your Visual Voicemail for you. The service gives you the option to directly listen to the voicemail without dialing in, delete the message, call back the contact or view their information if they’re in your People Hub."
[Nokia Lumia 900] cx1:
If you swipe one screen over from call log history you see voice mail. It lists all voice mails individually with caller id if available or stored contact info. You just hit the name and it start playing the message.

Annoyingly At&t blocks this function on 3G for WP7 ( available on iPhone, etc) but are now allowing it on LTE with the 900.
[Nokia Lumia 900] prjkthack:
Any Windows Phone on AT&T can have Visual Voicemail as long as they have the LTE data plan. The LTE data plan specifically allows for Visual Voicemail to be used.

So because the 900 requires this plan, Visual Voicemail should be available with the phone.

Alright, I've searched everywhere for this. I purchased Dead Space during a sale from the Android Market and noticed my Xperia Play Controller does not work with it even though it is a play game. Is this because I did not purchase it from the stupid VCast? (Android Market was like $0.49 during the sale and VCast was about $10, which is more than EA sells it for me) I realize I'm being cheap and all, but I'm just curious what the deal is.

I've bought a HTC Desire (A8181) via eBay and they stated that it had Android installed and working. However, instead, it has Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional installed (hooray :().
