Thanks - I've installed Zedge, I then went to my phone system options, sound, default notification. If I select zedge, it says there are no tones. Is there a place to load it on my phone from my computer? I don't need any katy perry songs, just a really loud ring or buzzer. I put a custom sound in my internal storage notifications folder - I'd like to make that the default sound for only one sender of texts, everything else could have the default sound.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boe:
Thanks I tried a few different sounds but no matter what I pick when a new text comes in I only get a very quiet ding dong type sound.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
So you're saying when you go into Settings > Sounds > Default notification, no matter what you set it to your incoming notification is different? Even with stock sounds?

Have you gone into Messaging > Settings > Choose ringtone, and select "Default ringtone" from the scrolling list. Does it change? It should play the sound when you touch it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boe:
Yes- no matter what sound I choose even stock sounds - I get a double chime - kind of like ding dong. I'm using full stock Verizon GN. No rooting.

I can change the default ringtone for phone calls.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boe:
I did also reboot after changing the default and I still get the ding dong type sound which is not the sound I set for it. The sound it makes is Pollux for incoming SMS messages but I've tried to set it to several others such as even vega or proxima but it always makes the Pollux sound.

I'm going through

- settings

- Sound

- default notification

Is there some place else I should be going to to change the sms incoming text sound?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwvandeursen:
All,

I have a big problem. When I try to start my phone I get the black screen with google and the unlocked padloack, after which the screen goes dark and nothing happens anymore.

What I did before this are two things. I had been mukking around with the screen resolution (I had it set at 240 and 280, as some apps did not show up in the market) also downloaded LCD density to solve the market issue.

I then rebooted the device and entered CWM to do a backup which as far as I knew succeeded. unfortunately after rebooting, see the above.

I have tried a couple of reboots, tried restoring the nandroid (the above was the only one I had). that didn't work, so tried to connect to the PC to load a new ICS rom (original 4.0.4 by google), unfortunately my device can not go into USB mode in CMW (it comes up with UMS lunfile missing....)

so I am woring in circles. can't start the device to download a rom, can't open USM to load a ROM to start the device again.....

any help would be appriciated

thanks

Patrick
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SynFox:
hey

flash a new ROM via fastboot then, there are enough guides :)

-Syn

Edit: Alternatively, flash the stock Google ROM via GNex toolkit and go from scratch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwvandeursen:
as mentioned, I can't get a rom on the phone so that I can flash it.

I can't start the phone to donwload one, and can't connect it to usb to get one on the storage....

sorry, you mentioned fastboot.... not USB.

so connect it to usb cable. I then entered fastboot devices, no number came up, as was also the case with ADB. thinkin I might not have the correct USB drivers for my windows machine. any idea where to get teh correct one?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
To flash stock images the files are on your PC, not the phone.

If you can get the phone to boot into fastboot (via vol up + vol dn + power) and get your PC to recognize it you're good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwvandeursen:
thats the issue. pc cannot recognize the phone, so cannot get any files from the PC to the phone (ie. cannot get a rom file to the phone...)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SynFox:
Either directly from Samsung or download the GNex Toolkit (You might want to use it anyways to flash the stock image), the drivers come with it.

After you installed the drivers and have you phone plugged in, go to the device manager to check if it is connected properly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
For the drivers, I would recommend you remove all old drivers and install these. If you don't know how to install them, or are having issues, look here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cyrusxs:
I had a similar issue with regard to my PC recognizing the drivers. I googled around and found that people were having success with installing the PdaNet drivers, so maybe you can try that too. I had installed the Android SDK as well as the PdaNet drivers, and I eventually got mine to work.

I would probably follow Efrant's links first though - if that doesn't work for you, then maybe you can try PdaNet drivers and/or installing the SDK.

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] android01:
Why not just do a factory reset from within recovery?

¢ £®0π π€XU$ |||
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwvandeursen:
the factory reset didn't help, the phone just wouldn't go past the black lockscreen. So in the end I used the galaxy nexus toolkit. installed the drivers for the PC, was able to go through fastboot and push files and flash a new rom.

Al is now solved, just need to do a lot of work to bring the phone back to where it was and make a backup asap.

thansk all for the help!

case closed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Good to hear you got it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] litetaker:
Hi, I just deleted the stock Netflix app and apparently modifying system apps could cause OTA updates to fail. So I am requesting someone to send me the stock Netflix app. If you installed some updates to Netflix, please uninstall them and just upload the stock app. I don't wanna push the Netflix app from market as the app in the device may be an Asus customized version. I know this is a PITA but I'd really appreciate it if you do this for me.

If installing the app needs.some special instructions then kindly give them.

Thanks!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vt220:
This is what I have in /system/app with .21 firmware: http://oeo.la/GY4X7UUHM4
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] litetaker:
THANKS!

Gracias amigo! That was exactly what I wanted. And to add to it, the app behaves just like my stock Netflix app. Upon clicking it, I go to Google Play where I get the opportunity to download an update to the app!

So, now that I restored the App and pushed it back to the system, I am good, right? I should now be able to successfully update and install future OTAs?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mocoheavy:
I created the 3 img files with the multiboot manager app, flashed the ROM and everything went OK, but when I try to boot it, gives a red led twice and back to multiboot menu. What did I make wrong? Cm9 works perfectly. I am using MIUI Pikachu Edition in the NAND. Any ideas?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anhell:
in multoboot thread, someonea said that when the folder´s name has more than eight letters, the second time, will give bootloop.

What´s the name of wajkiui v4 virtual folder ?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mocoheavy:
I already read that, so I named it WIUI. This is very strange

Edit: Managed to boot it. I only had to make the images bigger. Didn't work with 200mb system and data and 100mb cache. Made them 250mb system, 300mb data and 150mb cache and booted without problems.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
i installed Resurrection rom 1.0 and i've just found out it doesn't have cwm. i can't flash anything, recover anything etc. apparently i need a cwm zip file? (fake flash?) but where the hell do you get that from?

is it safe to just go into download mode and start from scratch with odin?

ta all :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apeiron6:
Just flash kernel with Odin :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
the only time i've ever used odin was to flash lighning rom when i first rooted. everything since then has been via cwm.

screw it, i'll do that again. go all the way back to GB lightning. at least i'll have a proper recovery
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apeiron6:
I use lightning 2.5. Great rom it's ICS:-D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
i'll flash tomorrow. never going to flash a rom again without cwm built in.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apeiron6:
What's wrong with odin? Odin works great!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
i need to have my pc present. i could be in work, download a new rom, reboot and flash while in work. cant without a PC if i use odin
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apeiron6:
Usually at work works people, they do not flash roms ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
maybe that's why we were made redundant last week, hmmmm. :o
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommo123:
flashing latest lightning fixed it i think. woot
[HTC 7 Pro] Skitzi:
Do any of the roms on here work with US Cellular?
[HTC Sensation XL] lameazz:
Great work man for making a thread with all of these informations.

I think many of us were searching for something like this.

A very helpful thread for al beginers.

Many thanks man! :thumbup:
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Can I ask what was wrong with the guides already present and vertigo guide has all info needed. I welcome any attempt to simplify things but do we really need another thread like this. There is no lack of info on the XL as all that is needed is here. Many many people before have found all they needed so really don't understand. You seem to show a total lack of respect for all the good work that have gone on before you got here. If the guides here were not to your liking I am sure we could have updated. You come into a forum and open a thread at least acknowledge the efforts of others that were here before you. Alot of time and effort was spent getting things here off the ground and to disregard the recognised efforts here as you quite blatantly are is rude and bad form.
[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
+1 I totally agree. All the information is available in mine and shingers tutorials and you've not linked or acknowledged them at all.
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
First of all, I made this guide because someone requested it. I also linked a lot of good working threads so I don't get why you think I am rude. I just put everything a noob needs in one guide with links to working guides so they don'T need to puzzle around a lot. Because I found it hard to find everything I needed.

I'm thankful to all the threads I have linked in this thread. AND I am not taking credit for the things I have linked. As I mentioned, the is no guide especially made for the Sensation XL for some things, and this guide I made is more based on that part and sharing the eu rom that is hard to find due to download rdstrictions.

So pardon me if I did not thanked the entire XDA.

In one of the linked guides they mention that they could make that guide thanks to vertigo, so that's good.

And again, I could not easily find everythin I needed and therefore I desided to share my experiance sfter getting a request to show the steps for noobs

F4LLCON
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
Sorry for noy mentioning you in my thread as I haveread your thread and yes I see that you had most of these. But I find it still a little bit out of order. And I saw that you did not mention ICZ and as I said it was a request of a user to make this. It's in order and everything they need step by step. Your thread is good but to much text in my opinion. I have added one or two things in this one. Btw lots of your text is the same as text I have read in other guides and I did not see you mention them all. It might be that they copy paste it from you, I don't know.

But I am not trying to be rude or not mention related post, why would I not. I will add your guide at the top of this my yhread so users can deside for themselfs which one they need. :)
[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
I think the problem is that you're just repeating everything that is in mine and shingers guides already.... :D

I have mentioned the people who I needed to in my thread, basically shingers5 as he was the one who has done all the hard work and they are the only threads i copied from... and no its not out of order, its in the right order, with the exact steps you need to take to get a custom rom working, guaranteed!! The reason there is so much text is that I've tried to explain it as clearly as possible.

Anyway I'm not getting into an arguement about this, I've said what I needed too...
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
To be honest, some of the guides that are mentioned are not clear in my opinion. I shared guides that were really easy.

Pretty late got to get up early, goodnight
[HTC Sensation XL] gunaiden:
I support this thread and encourages all work in this direction, I am against the monopoly of information, in any case, we are in a forum and everyone, or Each one stands to gain.

And I think this thread is the best and easiest I've read since I read more and more I discover new things, and eventually it has to choose what method I follow.

every time I have a question, why I have not managed to flash phone when he was unroot, and now it is rooted I can not have a flash with Ruu?

that's why I'm asking you to write this thread because I saw that many people can not flash with Ruu
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Once again your lack of respect astounds me. Nothing I did here was in aid for gratitude or fame. I had an XL when only a few had it and there was nothing at all. I mean **** all. I put my device on the line to find all the things I posted. The sites you linked too got the info from here. Why not make a guide in simple terms as you said but with links to xda? I have done my best to help everyone by replying promptly and even on pm. You act like there was nothing here at all and yours is the 1st thread to be posted with such info. Its bad form mate as the info here has helped many many people. Simplify things yes and bring it all together and simpler hell yes but discredit all my hard work and effort as blatantly as you do is bad form. Don't care if I get mentioned or not but do not try to discredit my contribution to this device
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Jesus christ! Grow up my god. Sometimes I hate xda. In most forums threads with similar info gets closed down. However I saw that your intention was good but you went about it the wrong way. When you enter anywhere you acknowledge those you were in there before you then proceed. Its not only good manners but good form. Hope you edit your first post to include what you had before with xda links. Good thread just bad links
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Do not tell fibs as I have posted over and over again in reply to many questions how to flash ruu after relocking bootloader. If you choose incorrect ruu file foe your device it won't flash. I also like the content of the thread but it linked to outside sources who all got their info from stuff already here. Why not link to stuff here as apart from you mate many have used and been successful in doing so
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
I had my xl on release date.

Look here pal, for example if you write russian and someone else writes it in english and again someone else writes it in plain english so noobs can understand, I will firstly link yhr plain english ofcourse, because I don't see the point to post all the links. And I don't know all the origins and my thread is simply to have all the guides that helped me out. So stop whining about no respect and being rude if it's not about being the populair one. I mentioned that I was sorry for not mentioning someone but you keep going. This is a forum and I like to share my experience period.
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
BECAUSE I FIND THE GUIDES I HAVE LINKED BETTER EXPLAINED. you are working on my nerfes now
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
Listen here, there are no bad links because linking other than XDA is alowed. I am not going to change the links because of your monopoly acts. I FIND THOSE GUIDEZ BETTER EXPLAINED and if I want to share those you should not block it. Even if you were the first with that information, that does not matter to me because I am sharing MY OWN EXPERIANCE. So let people deside for them selfs whiv one they want to read and use and stop telling people which guide they need to link in their thread. It's a forum and I find my thread easy short and powerful.

Whay the use of it if I would link your post?? Than it would become the same old confusing long post. I only share the guides that worked for me.
[HTC Sensation XL] gunaiden:
[/COLOR]

Well I think if you want the forum works as you want, we must establish rules, and if you want xda guard its independence from the other site must all admit that even we often lack the material, I give you an example: I wanted to flash a Ruu europe, but I have not managed to find a link that works.

and if you say you have already explained the method to pass a Ruu sorry but this is not enough for me, I need to know the exact reasons why I can not flash my phone as I want.

this is how you learn and that's how we advance.

friendly
[HTC Sensation XL] benjamin.j.goodwin:
Then search it. There are guides all over xda and the net with the codes for RUU fails. Or post a question.

Really what should have happened here is some one to ask shingers5 and/or vertigo to update their threads if this was needed. I have to agree and think that in order for anyone to have rooted there phone and put a custom ROM on it that you would have had to follow shingers5 and vertigo's guides at least.

Show a little respect and show credit where it is due. You have even admitted that this is just a simplified version of vertigos work.

Other than that I think that what you attempted to do here was good, perhaps just not approached in the correct way.

My tupence added.
[HTC Sensation XL] spydermahn:
How is a "guide" simple and easy, if the steps are not in the correct order?

I have just "become a noob" and

have unlocked and relocked my b00tl0ader,

tried to flash Ice Cold Sandwich but it wouldnt,

then backed up my rom and tried to flash my backup,

but none of this happened as i got error codes,

so i then tried the "perfect" root tutorial on youtube.....

but couldnt get root....

So i threw my phone in the bin :(

and then set the bin on fire with some petrol which i had to queue up for... Stupid Petrol strike....

---------- Post added at 07:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 AM ----------

.............. i nearly forgot.... i didnt try installing the Draw Something app.... Maybe this is where i went wrong?
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
How funny I lol'd will edit the steps
[HTC Sensation XL] F4LLCON:
benjamin.j.goodwin, shingers5, [vertigo]

I have updated my thread, hope it's ok now :)
[HTC Sensation XL] benjamin.j.goodwin:
Don't need any thanks to me, I haven't done anything lol.
[HTC Sensation XL] Alex-V:
@all smoke a peace pipe.. and cool down / relaxe
[HTC Sensation XL] :
Smoke till you fly so high

Haha neighbor
[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
Thanks for that, it has just made my morning.... :D

@F4LLCON

Just a couple of things... in the OP you've linked to the wrong version of recovery, the tenfar you have linked too is really buggy and sometimes doesn't even work at all, you need to link to the Paul O'Brien recovery...

Secondly... you completely disregard the fact that you have to install the chinese boot.img and chinese rom in order to get a custom rom working... those two steps are essential to getting a custom rom on your phone....

Its never been about getting thanks, its always been about pointing people in the right direction so there isn't a 1000 threads in the dev section asking silly questions, which are answered in the other threads, trying to keep it clean so the new people to the forum can find the help they need. I do acknowledge the fact that my tutorial is a bit long and there is a lot of text, but all of it is essential to getting the job done, which is getting a custom rom on your phone...
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Lol this added a little bit of spice to the forum and rest assured I was not angry. Just only polite to acknowledge what was there before you arrived even if had device on launch day. Like I said your guide is welcomed and your intentions were good. Even if xda allows outside links its not encouraged as you should know especially when all the info on these sites came from here lol. As for flashing ruu how many times have I posted that for this to be successful you need the exact ruu for your device as we do not have s-off as yet. This has been repeated many times. When we have s-off we can flash any software version as sig check is bypassed. At no point was this an argument just people expressing a difference of opinion so keep your nerves in tact. Its not about being thanked but tried and tested methods that have been verified to work. Peace

PS

Nice guide lol
[HTC Sensation XL] :
About the chinese.img, when I used custom ROM I used Ice Cold Zombie, and I did not use any chinese.img ?
[HTC Sensation XL] :
One thing about the RUU.exe

When I relocked my boot loader and run the RUU.exe it flashed my phone, after that I tried an app for root information and it told me my phone wasn't root. So it worked I guess? or am I totally wrong?
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
When relock bootloader and flash the correct ruu it returns all to stock. It also flashes the hboot and returns it to locked rather than relocked. There should be no root until run root method again
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
You may not have needed to flash Chinese rom or boot.img as some have had such success. The prob is majority of people were not that lucky bypassing Chinese img hence the reason for its inclusion for a guaranteed custom rom flash. The tenfar recovery had issues hence why I got paul to compile a new recovery from actual source.
[HTC Sensation XL] tbsamuelsson:
Hallo i have a problem egen im downloading the ruu Windows dont recognize the exe file and can't run it.

Windows says that i most chose a program tio Open it.

Someone who has a clue?

Can some parts of the file Been missing so i cant run the file?

Maybe someone hwo has a european/sweden ruu and Can upload it to dropbox or some other side so i Can test downloading it.

Best regards Torbjörn
[HTC Sensation XL] riz157:
Thanks for this thread very useful. Its got it all info, drama, threats, abuse, humour only thing missing is violence.
[HTC Sensation XL] eggshaped:
Thanks, this thread helped me a lot.

It's all very well people saying the tutorials are already out there in the forum, but it's not clear to a person new to the SXL which procedures need to be done, and in what order. This is exactly what I needed, much appreciated :)
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
all tutorials state clearly and precisely what needs doing. There is a calm here do why stir things up. Happy this helped you and welcome but don't start with statements like these
[HTC Sensation XL] eggshaped:
Just saying 'thanks', the last thing I want to do is stir things up. Didn't mean to offend, sorry, maybe I should have left the last bit out ;)

Anyway, I see you're the guy who wrote the rooting thread, thanks I appreciate it. I'm new in the SXL forum, don't want to offend anyone, just giving thanks for something that helped me out :)

Peace x
[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
No worries man just glad you are now part of our little family lol. Its quite small here but we have some good chefs and solid roms so enjoy
[HTC Sensation XL] BiggerBaloo:
Hi all,

I'm having some.hardware issues with.my handset, so followed the steps to relock, and unroot. I got stuck in a fastboot loop but still managed to flash my.original Rom. The concern I now have is the bootloader says relocked. Admittedly I haven't done much searchin on the topic yet but it might be helpful if there was a simple trouble shootin guide too.

Thanks

Baloo
[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
That's correct, that's what your bootloader should say when you have relocked it
[HTC Sensation XL] BiggerBaloo:
Thanks for the quick response.

So is my warranty reinstated even though its evident I've previously unlocked it? Sorry if I'm being thick.
