[LG Optimus 2x] Evil_enc:
Hey,

right now my phone is on CM7, but much progress has been made with CM9 or ICS.

My question is wheater is should flash this version:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1517301

or this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1508492

what are the differences between this 2 version? which one is more stable? which one is faster?

thanks in advance! cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] slebit:
Supernova is the kernel that comes with novahd.

And the difference between owains and novahd is that novahd is more customizable. During the installation you can choose exactly how you want it. From text fonts to what apps you want to install. But both Roms is based on owains, so there is not a big difference.
[LG Optimus 2x] axepted:
Nova has also a tweaked kernel Supernova :)
[LG Optimus 2x] moludo:
you think that the nova hd is based on owains build, be yourself are both fine, but I would put that of owains
[LG Optimus 2x] batman1908:
Nova is very good in speed, smoothness and still very stable.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mylleranton:
I personally use Owains because I tried NovaHD and directly saw that it didn´t like me, everything was forced closed and not much was working, but however, I did like the customised stock-apps in /system/app/ and I still use a few of them. I´m currently running on Owains RC0-37 and I think that it all flows on very good!

I would choose Owain because I like to have bleeding edge features (It updates often) but I think that NovaHD would be a great choise to! So, my suggestion: try them both for a couple of days!

(Sorry for bad english)
[LG Optimus 2x] hei1125:
For FC problem I would say you need a full wipe as android version updated
[LG Optimus 2x] Mylleranton:
I did a full wipe, and I came from the same android version (4.0.3)
[LG Optimus 2x] hei1125:
It is 4.0.4 now

Try my latest Romm
[LG Optimus 2x] Mylleranton:
I'll sure check that out!
[LG Optimus 2x] XXMrHyde:
If you install with fullwipe, try nonwipe, or wipe in CWM and install with nonewipe.

I`ve also read someone have to install with wipe, and reinstall with nonewipe.
[LG Optimus 2x] azart95:
Nova is just a better polished version of owain rom, I used Nova before, but now reloadedICS does not work on the latest version, that's bad
[LG Optimus 2x] donkeyaner:
I think it's personal choice. For a All-in-One Package I would prefer Nova HD.

But again, again there isn't too much difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Arze236:
I have a problem downloading some apps. I waited for certain apps to come out for android but when i go to download them my device is incompatible with them ! My phone seems to be one of the only ones that wont work

''This app is incompatible with your O2 Samsung GT-S5570.''

HELP ANYONE ???
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] adikinter:
what rom are u using?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
Of course it would be like that since our phone is LDPI. If the apps you wanted were made for hdpi or mdpi, then you have no choice. Try to search for ported versions to ldpi/qvga. But this is not the only reason why it would say incompatible. The app may require higher processor speeds, larger RAM and what not..

Sent from my GT-S5570
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Arze236:
not too technical with phones so how do i check what rom im using ? would froyo be the rom ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Deleted member 4571279:
Go to settings scroll down> about phone and last option is build number

if there is writen something type it here. If not then you are using stock rom.

Correct me if im wrong. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] adikinter:
oh I'm sorry about me questioning ur rom(which now i bet ur using a pure stock rom)., but for checking what baseband and android version u are currently using go to setting>>about phone.

anyway what app to be exactly it is that u mentioned not compatible with ur device and carrier? because yeah play store(market) restrict some app to be able to download to some country only i.e netflix,hbo,holo app only available for us region.

if ur phone rooted u can use market unlocker to disguise your carrier and region

and for some app like games that are only meant for high end with hq resolution, high processors and different type of cpu driver there is nothing we galaxy mini user can do about it, unless someone had port it to able to use to our phones...

hope I'm not confused you :D lol
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
if it is free download it from 1mobile.com and try to install. also try to search for the app on google with keyword "apk" at the end of the name
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Arze236:
I downloaded them from 1mobile so how do i put them on the phone ??

got it solved ! thanks everyone :)
[Xperia Arc General] vr5411:
Hi,

I'm tinkering about how to upgrade from .42/.62 fw with Root to ICS release and keep Root. And still with locked bootloader (operator phone).

Only idea I have is following:

1. Flash 0.42 generic world

2. Root your Phone with DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su

3. (optional) Update over the air to 0.62

4. Install [RECOVERY] Auto-Installer 5.0.2.7-nAa-r2 [Version 4.0]

Now, we need someone with un-locked bootloader who will upgrade to ICS and

5. Root with flashtool.

6. Install [RECOVERY] Auto-Installer 5.0.2.7-nAa-r2 [Version 4.0]

7. Make nandroid backup

8. Post link on XDA

Now, back to locked bootloader phone.

9. Download nandroid backup

10. Restore system

11. Flash with flashtool stock kernel and new baseband only

12. boot into ICS.

Folks, is there any other possibility that do not require bootloader unlocking?

Thanks for constructive ideas!
[Xperia Arc General] hackdima:
The stock gingerbread bootloader wouldn´t start ICS, i´v allready tested this
[Xperia Arc General] vr5411:
But step 11 should take care about that or I missed something?
[Xperia Arc General] lukesjeans:
When official ics comes out I'll make a nandroid back up for ya....I'm unlocked
[Xperia Arc General] vr5411:
Thanks man!!!!
[Xperia Arc General] lukesjeans:
no proble,.....i only ask for 1200$ in return....i kid i kid! lol glad to be of service!
[Xperia Arc General] hellocng:
If this is for official release, why?

Sony will release it for bootloader locked phones, and root will surely come soon after when exploits are found. This would be an interesting way to load custom ROMs that work with stock kernels though. Anyhow, the little money it costs to unlock bootloader is the best money Ive spent. You can always relock it and warranty for some people is about to be over anyways.
[Xperia Arc General] lukesjeans:
Well if root isn't found this will be backup
[Xperia Arc General] OverLo4d:
I don't think you you can flash a kernel with locked bootloader.
[Xperia Arc General] lukesjeans:
You can only flash stock kernel from sony and only via flash tool not fastboot
[Android General] phoneyericsson:
Hi all, I'm doing my thesis on the patent war in this area. I just came across a line that MMI is allegedly running around with regarding the strength of it's FRAND patents "It takes only one bullet to kill".

http://www.fosspatents.com/2012/02/motorola-likens-its-enforcement-of.html

After Google was given the approval by the EU and US to acquire Motorola Mobility (the de-merged manufacturing wing of Motorola) MMI took aim at Microsoft in Germany, a location now considered 'dangerous for business' because of patent misuse and the system around it. Microsoft is now moving some offices out of Germany in a move to protect itself from any outcome with MMI (which as we know now has the financial firepower of Google behind it).

http://www.fosspatents.com/2012/04/patent-abuse-hurts-german-economy.html

Wow. So take charge of a company with 17,000 patents and you can scare the competition out of some countries? I note though that the EU has launched an investigation of abuse of industry essential patents by Motorola, so the upgrading of the firepower is attracting political and regulatory attention in a dangerous way. Just consider the repeated blows Microsoft took regarding Windows over the years by both EU and US regulators.
[Android General] spunker88:
These patent wars have gone out of control. Patents were originally supposed to stimulate innovation by giving inventors peace of mind that their ideas would not be duplicated by others. Nowadays it seems patents are used to discourage innovation by scaring competition. Patents are given for things way too vague or are used against competitors who aren't duplicating the patented product.
[Android General] phoneyericsson:
I completely agree ^^ there are used as weapons by the wealthiest companies to attack which I think ruins the system. Let's not get started on patent trolls...:eek:
[LG Nitro HD] samomamo:
Hi can anyone help me to root? I tried Superoneclick and doomloard it does not work. Tried like 100 times.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Reboot your phone with USB cable connected. Then immediately when it first shows the unlock screen, unlock the device and then immediately run Doomlord. Worked for me after several attempts trying to do it other ways.
[LG Nitro HD] samomamo:
Im doing it as u described and still fails . Thanx anyway bro
[LG Nitro HD] hrnzir:
have you set usb to debug .. and are you running the root runme from winrar ? you have to extract the files to a folder on your desktop or it wont work if you running it straight from the unzip program ..( i figured that out after trying it 10 times
[LG Nitro HD] noobsquared:
I think he is talking about rooting after the latest update.

I have the latest update too and it seems like you can't root it.

I tried the superoneclick, doomlord and manual method.

After the latest update, it seems like you can't really root.

I have phone connected on pc mode with usb debugging enabled.
[LG Nitro HD] samomamo:
Thanx to all of you. I'm running the latest softwarebl maybe that's the reason. I tried maybe 100 times if not more.

Thanx thanx thanx
[LG Nitro HD] noobsquared:
I am having the same issue. Can't root.

Someone who is not so noob as me might have to take a look at what's going on with the update in order to get us up and running I believe.

Edit:

Seems like someone on the other forums had to work extra hard to get the root to work:

http://androidforums.com/optimus-v-...4-cant-root-lg-optimus-v-after-sw-update.html
[LG Nitro HD] hrnzir:
Mine is also running the latest ota update and rooted..ran superoneclick which stalled at step 7or 8 ...i restarted and then ran the latest doomlord root and had no problems...

i had to run nobloat to re enable the apps i had disabled then unroot with doomlords then the ota update and then the steps above
[LG Nitro HD] noobsquared:
So, basically you left the SuperOneClick stuck at step 7 when it says waiting for device and went to doomlord from there?

When you say you restarted, you restarted the process using DoomLord (v4) method or restarted phone?

Thank you.

Edit:

Just tried doing what you said worked for you.

Ran SOC 2.3.3 and it got stuck on step 7.

Then ran zergRush and got this:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahtew:
Since I moved from GB I'm trying to understand what have changed in ICS UV capabilities.

On GB (CheckROM v6+Siyah) I was able to achieve stable voltage 800/900/1000/1075/1175 for 200/500/800/1000/1200MHz and 775 for 100MHz (but I did not use this frequency).

Currently (on ICS) I have almost stable 925/950/975/1075/1175. But adding 100MHz frequency changes voltages to 800/875 for 100/200MHz (almost stable).

Other thing - for higher frequencies I can go even lower witch voltages (but I can't confirm it's stable - haven't test it longer than hour) - for 1000/1200 -25mV.

Stability is tested with 'Stability Test v2.4'. ROM - Stock XOE LPQ, kernel Siyah3.0rc1 (NEAK 2 behaves the same). Voltages set with VoltageControl

Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

I got stuck on the Samsung N7000 screen after a reboot. I'm running [ROM][04.04.12] imilka's AOSP ICS v08 [IMM76D/4.0.4]

If I select unmount /system or format /system it hangs as well. Same happens when I try to restore my backup from yesterday. I can only boot CWM or download mode at the moment.

I was using the kernel that came with the ROM.

I was just doing a reboot after the device has been powered off for a few hours. Nothing special.

Whe I try to flash a ROM now it just hangs at installing system forever. My guess is that something has screwed up the system parttion because I'm unable to format it now using CWM.

Hi,

I am new here in asus forum, as i just bought Transformer Prime.I am not new at xda because i have Htc Desire and i am familiar with rooting etc.

After so much reading about rooting and unlocking Prime, i dont have straigh answer:CAN I ROOT without doing UNLOCK and install Custom Roms and APPS only with ROOT?

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dave_S:
No, only being rooted is not enough to be able to install custom ROMs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] r0ck0:
With root access you have full control of the apps, you can uninstall, install, or break any apps you want. You cannot install a custom ROM without the boot loader being unlocked. You do not need root to unlock and you do not need to unlock to root.

Bootloader unlocked = custom roms

Root = custom apps
