[Samsung Infuse 4G] PharmNerd:
I know... "Why would you want the stock boot animation?" Because I do. :)

Can anybody hook me up with this? Searching around XDA, I couldn't find anywhere with the stock 480x800 animation.

Right now, I'm working off from dman's rooted UCLB3 CWM version. I assumed that this would have the stock animations, but I only see a generic "Android" boot animation (with Infusion-GB A2).

I see that there's a bootsamsung.qmg file in /system/media. Is this a boot animation that only the stock kernel uses?

Thanks..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PharmNerd:
~wolverine~ pointed me to the boot animation for the HTC Inspire. One quick image swap to get rid of the HTC logo, and it's exactly what I was looking for.

Attached file should be placed into /system/media if using the Infusion kernel.

Hey guys I did search this some without a fix but if I get incoming pic through txt some come straight through some make me hit the download button usually the size is 30 KB when it won't dl is that the prob? And I have my USB cord hooked to my car CD player and I can't get it to connect to play my music on my phone like I could with my evo 3D?? Is that because there's no SD card to mount.thanks for any advise

Don't know if it's possible, but would there be a way to add a data monitor to the notification bar when you drag down so it would so you how much data you've used? Would be really useful
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amulbaby:
Set limits

Hello,

If you are talking about DATA MONITOR app from Sony Mobile Communications,

then you need not worry about exceeding your permissible usage limit as you can set alarms for the TOTAL DATA, SENT DATA AND RECEIVED DATA with respect to your Mobile Internet Plan..

I presently have 1GB data plan and I have my ALARM set to 1000mb...

So, notifications can be avoided ..thus saving some juice :)

If you are so keen in having a notification icon...then try this app:Onavo Count | Monitor Data

LINK:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.onavo.android.onavoid&hl=en

Good day
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fireice7:
I use 3G watchdog which is very lightweight, got great reviews and has notification icons and widgets.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtacy!:
I use 3G Watchdog Pro but Onavo also has some good reviews.

I don't really recommend the Data Monitor by SE.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DooMLoRD:
hey guys as i can see currently there are many duplicate files... FULL FTFs and then pre-rooted system.img files... as i am sure u will appreciate almost 95% of the content of these files is the same...

i am aware that there are two kinds of users here... ones who want plain FULL FTF so they need not worry abt unlocking bootloader and others who have unlocked bootloader and need to download the FULL FTF and again the pre-rooted system.img... which frankly is horrible as it consumes lots of bandwidth (almost 1.2 GB+)...

here is what i suggest...

when posting pre-rooted system.img kindly also add an FTF which doesnt contain the system.sin... this partial FTF will become very small ~20-40MB depending on further compression RAR/7z.... so basically those with unlocked bootloader can flash the PARTIAL FTF (without system.sin) and flash the pre-rooted system.img via fastboot... thus saving precious bandwidth...

thanks for reading and let me know what u guys think

P.S.: once the bootloader bug is resolved we will have auto-rooting kernels, so u wont need to worry abt making pre-rooted system.img files
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yakandu:
Hmm good idea but... this will finish on uploading 3 files, Full.ftf nonSystem.ftf and system.img, no problem! ;)

Hello,

HELP Please!!!

I just unlocked, rooted with cwm and SAUROM, added modem t989 with cwm.

With CWM install, I saved all data and then erased all data before installing Saurom. After installation of Saurom, I restored the data, then I added the modem.

sim card installed, reboot. Phone turns on, but not apps open and phone keeps looking, nothing works.

What should I do now? :confused::(

Thanks,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crielstar:
I would try to flash again. Wipe everything first in cwm. And dont restore ur apps, redownload them from the play store. If u still have probs flash back to stock wit Odin. Theres threads in the dev section on this.

I just sold my phone and I flash the stock virgin rom back onto it. Should I meet up with the buyer again to re-unlock it? (for use with different carriers)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peachpuff:
Never had an instance where an unlock was lost, even flashing a stock firmware shouldn't re-lock anything.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSniperFan:
You could contact the buyer and tell him that you would do that for him off he wants it and it's necessary.

Or just ask if it's still unlocked.

I have had this problem for two roms and its really annoying. After flashing firmware 3.32.401.x for Vorbeths ics rom, I keep getting frozen out of my phone every time I lock it. It won't turn back on and I have to do a battery pull to get it on again. After having trouble with this i went to Mike's stock ICS rom for the Sensation and i restarted fresh (factory reset, reinstalled 3.32.401.x firmware and wiped dalvik). This time it would freeze after a couple minutes after I locked phone. Can anyone help?
[HTC Sensation] japinder:
Did you just do a full wipe from the recovery, or did you use the SuperWipe script by Mike...?
[HTC Sensation] sickorwuut:
Didnt use superwipe

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] friedje:
But delayed for a good reason,

they exchange the original foreseen dual core soc for a quad core.

Yammy.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Good move for samsung but would the 2 additional cores really give that much of a performance boost since 99% of the apps are single threaded.

Also I wonder whats up with the 11.6, it seems to have gone so silent!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Zamboney:
Another good reason would be to exchange the screen for an 1080p AMOLED!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] adelmundo:
If they give you a quad core for the same price as a dual core with better performance and better battery life, then why not.

I think they are doing this to make it more competitive in comparison to the new iPad. By giving it a quad core, the average person thinks it would be better than the new iPad since many people have a "4 cores are better than 2" mentality from a marketing standpoint. If they also have data numbers to back that up, such as better benchmark scores, etc, then that would help. It would still be a challenge to convince the average person, however, that Android on a 10.1 Note is a better experience than iOS on an iPad however, but if they can show the advantages of the S-Pen, better performance for gaming, and other such things, they might be able to get a better foothold on the tablet market.

Apple definitely has a dominance in the tablet market, but in a few years time, Android tablets will start to significantly eat at this lead just like it did with the smartphone market. By offering choices and differentiation from the iPad, and in the case of the Note: S-Pen functionality and the better quad core CPU, and with better pricing than an iPad, then I think we can see the Note tab doing well.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LiquidNitrogen:
The Note 10.1 is great all around, the only two places it lacks (in my opinion) is the low screen resolution and the 16:10 aspect ratio of the screen. I will never buy a tablet around the 8-10 inch size that isn't 4:3 in screen ratio. If Sammy came out with another edition that fixes both issues I would seriously consider picking one up.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
With the current quality control on superamoled, that is a nightmare for a lot of users including me. Im pretty ok with the pls screen after using my friend's tab for a day.

---------- Post added at 09:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 AM ----------

No issues with the price, i wonder if they will also go with a quad gpu.

Ios tablets apps are a bettet experince compared to andriod apps, used a friends ipad2 for a week and found all of its apps significantly better compared to andriod, imho.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kersh:
+1 on aspect ratio.

I still using my tablet 4:3 1440x1050 because of the aspect ratio.

If I cant get 1920x1200 I dont want then 16:10 in a tiny tablet.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SpenZerX:
I like 16:10. Its perfect for reading and browsing the web. But i only will upgrade my 10.1 tab if the resolution doubles to 2560*1440
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hagba:
For a tablet with a Pen which will be mostly used in portrait mode to scribble on or for playing board games like chess, 4:3 aspect ratio is much more suitable but not much so for watching movies, so each has its own cons and pros,it comes down to what suits ones need more.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] emuX:
ICS UI runs on a separate thread (read: core) wherever possible where as GB chops it about - hence the lag. As soon as games on ICS start utilising the extra cores, 4 will be better than 2!

To be honest, its only likely to be intensive apps that you'd notice any difference - and that probably means gaming. If, like me you use your tablet for Web browsing, watching videos and only occasionally for games 2 cores is plenty. Having said that, everyone wants new tech for speed and product lifetime.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sega_lou:
Do we really need the 2 extra core?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hagba:
No,but this beeing my first Android phone,not counting my HD2,and from what I have seen I would rather go for a two highly clocked and simultaneously running cores,and a big sized battery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Depsite all that, the preview video on the Tab 2 10.1 and Note 10.1 still shows signs of animation lag.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hagba:
And it will stay that way, since Android applications are based on Java, and Java is laggy even on my Quad Core i7 running PC.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mdrjr:
Cry Cry QQ More.

Its all games and Android Java apps are Blazing fast.

And yes more cores is better.

Android is a well done multi-core architecture. Its SDK make you use multi core features.

So we need all the cores we can have. Even GB or Froyo can take advantage of a 4 core processor.

Just a quick fact.. my galaxy note right now has... 173 process running.... so.. I guess that multi core isnt bad at all kids.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Vergunst:
[Q] Another "Which ROM" Thread: Closest to Samsung Stock without limitations?

Short Question: What ROM is closest to the stock AT&T ROM without the bloatware and WiFi tethering snooping/limitations?

Long Question:

I am not a total buffoon, and have been running custom ROMs since my HTC Blue Angel. This week I upgraded my Telstra T9193 running WinMO and Froyo Super RAM to a stock AT&T SII. This is the first AT&T branded phone I have had in over a decade. Them changing the data plan to have caps and losing my grandfathered in plan of unlimited as being truly unlimited has forced me to switch phones to get the 5GB cap instead of the 3GB cap and then also I have been eligible for an upgrade for 8-9 years and havent because of the data plan.

So I like the look and feel of the stock ROM. However I despise all the AT&T bloatware on there and the lack of WiFi tethering. I have already rooted the device and it is ready to accept a new ROM.

What I am looking for is something that is close to stock, but doesn't have the AT&T contacts, doesn't have any of the pre-installed AT&T apps, doesn't have the limited market (they mask market apps?! WTF!), and doesn't have the AT&T modem that routes tether traffic differently so they can identify phone data versus tether data.

My biggest complaint is tethering. I need that. I use between 4GB and 10GB a month on my phone with data, as that is my internet line 5 days a week. For now I am still using my HTC T9193 until I can get this limitation fixed. The other ones are more of wishlists, but the tethering is a hard requirement.

So any suggestions? I am still looking over the ROM list. Last time I looked for a ROM though, there were a few big players and it was easy to pick which one you jived with best. Now it seems like everyone and there mother is trying to cook a ROM. I just want something that puts the phone back to the way Samsung and Google intended and not the crooks at AT&T...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TheSniperFan:
^ This. Basically you should start looking in the "original development" subforum. I'll give you a short overview later.

Lol. The way Google intended Android to be like and the way Samsung does are two very, very different things.

You can go with either one, but not both.

First I'd like to know what model you have, as there are different Galaxy S2's.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sm625614:
ignore.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Vergunst:
I would prefer pure GB or pure ICS. GB + Samsung bloat is OK. GB + Samsung bloat + AT&T bloat is not.

SGH-i777, newest stock AT&T phone. I am not used to these crappy from-carrier phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TheSniperFan:
What do you mean by "from-carrier phones".

Because the original, international Galaxy S2 is the i9100. The i777 is a carrier modified version. However the i777 is the closest to the i9100 therefore it has good development (even if it's not as good as the original one when it comes to custom roms and such).

You'll get a short overview from me shortly...I'm hungry ;-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PatriotXT92:
Short Answer:

The following are all ICS based:

Pure AOSP - AOKP or CyanogenMod 9

Samsung Based without bloat - Ultimatum, Phone Bricker, ShoStock, etc.

Its on YOU to figure out what YOU want. This thread is probably going to be short lived as "Which ROM" threads are looked down upon.
