ICS going to be a big flop show for google:D They might release next version earlier
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielsf:
I have been running ICS for a couple of months now and I went back to gingerbread for a couple of days last week to see if I noticed any difference. I have to say ICS is a lot smoother with everything, and a lot faster say with rendering a web page than gingerbread was. I also just couldn't believe how basic and childish gingerbread looked. I will admit the new ICS scrolling mechanism got some getting used it but now I actually prefer it over gingerbread scrolling. Overall I feel that ICS is considerably faster, especially with web browsing, and a huge amount smoother thanks to it's hardware acceleration. I would strongly recommend that you move to ICS, it really does feel like I have a new phone especially running cm9. I hope this helps you :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Yet apart from the stock browser i feel ICS is a childish blue upgrade to GB and i dont actually find it or any of the ICS custom roms faster or anything and certainly no improvement over my current set-up .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
You have to wait for a few more weeks, you do know that it is a major upgrade and not like froyo to gb . So it does take time to optimize and stabilize the roms .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Essential that is usually true of all firmware but i am not impressed with Samsung's version of ICS so far .

What is under the bonnet may be fine but the bodywork is as ugly as hell .

It all boils down to will i get any advantage with an update answer is so far no and i have tested every version released only to go back each time .Of course when JKay etc is up and running i may look again .

9100G on GB hangs daily, mine does freezing on camera use, download from market, during calls, on reboot due to media scanning, activate wifi or switch between 3G and edge. Battery drains to zero in 30 min. It also freeze when idle in pouch. When it freezes it becomes hot. Quite unusable as a phone not knowing any battery left unless i check it every 30 min. My LG Optimus is 1000times more stable. Now with ICS, it feels like a normal phone. No freeze for past 4 days, downloads. I'm not buying Samsung anymore once this S2 outlive its lifespan. Htc, ate, huawei, lg, or any Chinese brands. Six months before ICS stabilizes it. Now no complains except ram reduced from 1gb to 687mb after upgrade!

and yes i am s-off, nothing is working even if i want to Charging the battery there is no light in the top and the Screen is black nothing is working it's like the phone is bricked :confused::confused::confused:
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes if you had a GB radio/ROM combination and you tried to flash a Froyo RUU then you have a radio bricked IncS.
[HTC Incredible S] ninth9:
how I can fix it ? .. even my PC can't recognize my phone
[HTC Incredible S] TheCrow1372:
Just a question, have you taken battery out and put it back in to let the phone boot back up itself?
[HTC Incredible S] keroro430:
First of all, can your phone correctly boot into bootloader mode? If yes, you may have a chance to make it back to alive!!
[HTC Incredible S] ninth9:
yes but nothing change :confused::confused::confused:
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
try booting in the bootloader mode by pressing volume down and power button..see atleast if you can reach there first..
[HTC Incredible S] ninth9:
no it can't boot
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
well then i dont think we have any other chance since you cant boot to the bootloader than nothing can be done...sorry bro:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
[HTC Incredible S] keroro430:
Yep. No more chance when the phone won't boot into bootloader. Sorry dude, you have to buy a new phone...
[HTC Incredible S] ninth9:
i am so sad :(:(:(:(:( . if i send the phone to htc they can fix it or not ??? and if anyone know any place here in turkey please tell me.:o:o:o
[HTC Incredible S] keroro430:
This is the last chance. But they can refuse to repair or you have to pay for the new hardware. Give it a try. Good Luck!
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
Well if you have warranty then its worth a shot you can find the info at www.htc.com on the contact us page
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xTremePower:
Hello,

I Have a Big problem...

On my nexus, Since I copy ont file onto the SD, all other files are Disapeared....

I tryed to use recevey softwares, but oly work with mass storage cards....

Somebody have an idea how can I restore my files please ??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
Can you offer any additional info? Have to used Root Explorer or a similar app to confirm without a doubt the files are gone and not just in a different place? And I am slightly confused when you say "move to sd card" because internal storage and SDcard on this phone are the same thing since there is no EXT..:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xTremePower:
I copyed files as usualy from computer to the nexus

After the copy (I copied the new google apps zip) this zip is ont the storage, but all other 12Go of data in the card are disapeared

I try to find it with windows, root explorer, es file explorer, I tryed android undelet tools and windows undelet tools... noone can see the MTP memory of the nexus .......

And I disabled the upload to picasa..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
Do you have fast usb charge enabled? If so, try disabling that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NookMonkey:
all files in /sdcard disappeared

The same thing just happened to me. I copied 386MB of music to /sdcard/Music and all appeared to be fine. I used Windows7 x64 Explorer over USB mounted as MTP.

I noticed that I could not copy some files back to Windows from Nexus. After messing around with that for a while I used ES File Explorer to check out /sdcard. Only a few folders were there, as if /sdcard were newly created. I could still see all of the lost folders in Windows Explorer.

Am I screwed? :(

TIA!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
This is from a corrupt MediaStore DB. I ran into something similar when moving files to my phone over WiFi using File Explorer. Afterwards only a handful of folders showed up when connected via USB. Only way to fix it is to reset the DB. Settings > Apps > All > Media Storage > Clear data/cache. Reboot. It should completely rebuild the DB after the boot, and things should show up correctly again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NookMonkey:
That did not get all my data back, I must have done something else while trying to fix it. The good news is that this fixed one of my next questions: How do I reset the Google Music album art? The suggestion above fixed that wonderfully.

Thanks!
[HTC One X] Sramie:
Please can someone make guide for noobs ? i just came from galaxy note because of delays and bought this awesome device.

I even dont know what the hell is Hboot,fastboot, ??RUU??, and dont know how to flash via ADB etc..

if someone make thread like this it will be very useful.

I have been reading this forum for 2 days but it doesnt given me something.. it looks like its made for peoples who have skills with HTC devices (i am good skilled with flashung Samsung devices)

Thx
[HTC One X] DooMLoRD:
So why u posting this in dev section???

Thread reported
[HTC One X] Aust S5:
Hi sramie, this should be in general section but basically, and I'm not going to get too detailed here, hboot is your original bootloader. Same as when you first rooted a Samsung through Odin. You had to boot the device into its bootloader before you could do anything.

Fastboot is effectively you're first OEM version of Odin and or recovery but on the phone itself. You can boot into it and then flash everything else via commands from a pc. Some of these commands are Adb some are fastboot. So these commands are behind the GUI of Odin. When you try and flash a Rom on a Samsung these are the commands given just through a graphic interface without you having to type them into a command prompt.

Ruu is just the original software installed on a device in its entirety. It can be region or provider specific. That's why we don't all get updates ota at same time.

I'm not going to go into step by step here because searching and learning is the best way to understand what you are doing. And there are heaps of tutorials already on these forums. Try search terms recovery, adb and tutorial. Should give you what you need. :)
[HTC One X] Sramie:
thanks alot

but i still dont know what is RUU.. there is specific firmwares with different RUU ? where i can get them ?

thx

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good overview or review of this app or have any experience themselves? I've only had it a few minutes, but am loving it already and I know I am just scratching the surface.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] n8w:
Scratching the surface is about as deep as it gets with that launcher, unfortunately. The widgets are neat when they animate, but compared to other launchers such as Go and ADW, the functionality and deep editing just isn't there. I rarely use it. It's overpriced eye candy in my opinion.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Adauth:
I kinda agree. I have GO launcher Ezx also, but the widgets and animations are so cool. They don't have tons of widgets , but I e mailed the devolper. He assured me more widgets are coming very soon. Plus I had money to blow. :D

WTH ....1500mAh not 1750mAh....why????
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Roman91:
mine 1697,5 mAh
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] katsuru:
mine also says 1500 wth?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MaXmeOliver:
Could this be something that the new update fixes? That some phones report having less than 1750 mAh.

The same thing happened to the Lumia 800.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dragon546:
Ok as your battery discharges your figures will lower to fix it press and hold volume up + Power until the phone vibrates 3 times this resets the counter back 175000 and then charge. I done this on mine, I think this like a calibration method.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tridious:
i gave it a try...its still shows 1500 on my xs:confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cotte:
for me too,still 1500!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dynamic503:
me to, it show 1500
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dragon546:
That's very strange. it is definitely 1750 mah battery in the device. I just did it this morning. Did you guys wait for the 3 vibrates when you held the keys down?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cotte:
yes, and after restart, my phone was in flight mode...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dragon546:
Flight mode???? OK something definitely don't look right. It's just a reset.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] keithwalton:
Try battery health test instead of battery test, it gives current capacity in uah. (mine shows 1725000)

I have noticed that during charging the led will go from red to green at 90%

Out of interest what battery tech does it state ?

Under battery test it shows mine as 1500mah and tech li-poly
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hololodilolo:
Yep my one also shows Actual Batt(uAh): 1750000 under battery health test but it shows 1500 mAh under battery test. I've already tried the reset and it's same. :confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sirksael:
Another one showing only 1500mah here...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] keithwalton:
The reset has worked if under health test it is showing the max capacity
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hololodilolo:
My one is not worked :confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] reptile64:
Mine worked too! Before reset it was 1697 and now it shows 1750 :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xavez:
I've had a strange one in the beginning it showed 1750000uAh and after a while I checked again and it said 1685000uAh, so I did the reset and now it's showing 1750000uAh again :)

Hi guys

Thx for reading this post.

I am writing because recently I got a 2nd hand i1900

And I am really eager to root it and install custom roms like my other devices.

But what hold me back is this i1900 is apparently rooted from the previous guy.

But unfortunally he probably only rooted it but did not install CWM, as I don't see the ROM Manger app and neither I just go to normal download mode instead of CWM recovery

Here is some information in the About phone page

Model number GT-I9100

Android version 2.3.3

Baseband version I9100XXKE4

Kernel version 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL......root@DELL103#2

Build number GINGBREAD.ZSKF1

One more thing, I am actually quite certain this is a generic HONG KONG I9100, as the phone comes with the warranty card and the IMEI matches.

Unless the previous guy was able to amed that.

What I want to know is IF CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4.zip should be the choice of root and CWM for my case.

According to Chainfire state that "just match the download"

Dont use Rom Manager .

Root + CWM .

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399

You have a very very old kernel with newer baseband .

You should upgrade to Android 2.3.6 then root .

Stock Roms .and csc

Root invalidates warranty .

THx JJE

But with the down of Multiupload, I can find those latest firmware and kernels back.

Is there any another ways to do it

Like rooting directly with a CF-root?

or may be this, I just found another one listed on cyanogenmod wiki

Mainly using Heimdall

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide

In my case, can i ignore the fact that I am already rooted, but continue to use heimdall to root again and install CWM

THX again.

[HTC Sensation] arabology:
i just bought a sensation, and now i'm a previous HD2 owner. so i'm not a noob, i hope.

so...unlocking bootloader and rooting and s-Off...which one to follow? the official on hTCDev website or the revolutionary way?! any difference between those?

please someone clarify some things, as i just became a sensation user, i have no idea about anything of these since HD2 is way different as i noticed and since there are a lot of info on the net, i don't wanna get into things i shouldn't.

i got a second hand sensation but it's still on factory default with android 2.3.4 and sense 3.0

really any help is greatly appreciated :)
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
If your HBOOT is supported by Revolutionary ALWAYS use that one...

I dont like HTCdev - It should only be used if your HBOOT is unsupported :)

Just have a good read through all the noob guides. Be sure of what you're doing before attempting anything...

I cant stress how important it is to follow the guides 100% :)
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
okay great, that was so helpful! you're really a good Q&A contributor, i don't know were i would have learned that anywhere else! :)

i'm off to check if my Hboot is supported.

thanks button clicked, cheers!
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
cant help but detect some sarcasm there :confused:

eh? why would you say that?!
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
Maybe i misinterpreted it !

who knows ?
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
no really i searched like two hours and on youtube but i couldn't know what's the difference between the official tool and the one called revolutionary...why you felt sarcasm in my words is beyond me...sorry anyway...
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
haha maybe its just me..

Anyway, Revolutionary IS THEE best tool for S-OFF... providing your HBOOT is supported of course. Did you check to see if its supported ?
[HTC Sensation] namila007:
if you got hboot 1.18.0000 please use revolutionary method to unlock your boot loader. If you unlock your bootloader with htcdev method you will unlock somd parts of the hboot. not every thing. then you cant flash a custom kernel because it already locked boot.img and cant write a new file over it. thne you will get wifi,bluetooth problems. ;) so unlock your bootloader with revolutionary. ;)
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
yep, it's supported :) i will do it tonight before bed and sleep at ease having it unlocked ^.^
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
i appreciate your concern :) i'll certainly use revolutionary.
[HTC Sensation] namila007:
great ;)

[HTC Sensation] arabology:
hehe yeah. no my phone is not sim locked :)

it didn't work!!

i tried it and my HBOOT is 1.18.0000 revolutionary supports it! i filled up everything correctly on the site and got a beta key. on revolutionary.exe, it ditects my phone just fine, after that i copy/paste the beta key. it starts but after a minute is gives "failed to get root :("

help?
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
Did you get S-OFF via revolutionary ??

what does your HBOOT say now ??
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
thanks for your reply. nothing changed in my after i tried revolutionary. HBOOT is still 1.18.0000
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
and it still says S-ON ??

If so try it again :) Copy the beta key into notepad and enter it into revolutionary manually.

then tell me what happens, also, link me to the guide you are / was following, and what step you got to before this problem occurred
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
yeah it still rights LOCKED up with pinkish red highlight and under it S-ON RL

I want to know the step from the guide your following where you went wrong.

Did revolutionary find your device ?
[HTC Sensation] arabology:
yes, it found my device. it then asked for the beta key, first time i wrote it by hand and 100% sure it was correct. i pressed enter and it said wait while device is being rooted or something...this could take few minutes...the it says root failed with a sad smiley face.......i got this device second hand....could it be coz it was already tried to be rooted on like htcdev? possible? do you think i should downgrade? and how?...
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
i have no idea, Maybe ??

Anyway, S-OFF isnt working this way... Have you seen the guides about downgrading and trying again ?

I cant find the link to save my life lol
