[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] Weekend Offender:
Did you try to Oc your phone ?
[GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps] shadovraven:
Well actually it was oced all the time, 768 mhz on CM7 by tejas and 806 mhz on SDSL. I believe it's memory managament fault not the cpu frequency anyway, pvz itself doesn't have any high requirements when it comes to hardware, it's just that the game is poorly optimized and it can't manage memory by itself. And as far i know it requires a lot of free memory to be launched ( near 200 mb ) otherwise it crashes. I just don't understand why it does work for some people and for other it doesn't, basically it shouldn't work on any GT540 because it lacks physical memory ( 168 mb when 80-110 mb is available for the user depending on the rom ) and swap is nothing like physical memory, it's just a paging file used to keep data that isn't needed.

After you do a those wipes you need to flash Darkside.Super.Wipe then wait 30 seconds or so, then flash the Kernel Cleanser wait 30 seconds again and then flash Black Edition.

Does anybody have any experience using this with our device? Pros, cons, quirks, any feedback helpful.

http://www.expansys-usa.com/sony-smartwatch-228482/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jkr284:
I got the Smartwatch a couple of weeks ago to go with my sony xperia S.

Pros:

Excellent Screen

4 day battery with mid-heavy use

Powerful Vibrate alert

Excellent strap and easy to clip the device onto the strap. Even easier to connect the charging cable!

your phone updates the smartwatch firmware OTA which is excellent.

Screen is clear

Swiping and one touch is very accurate.

Looks much better and more premium than the 1st generation liveview

Lots of widgets add ons

Album Art on music player!! :-)

No disconnects at all in the two weeks i have had the device (1st gen liveview was awful for this!)

Cons:

Multitouch is a bit of a faff, you press 2 fingers to go back a screen, i find this difficult as the screen is small and my fingers are big, takes a couple of goes for me to get this action right even now.

Has a bit of an impact on your phone battery, youll need to charge your phone every day.

Really enjoying the device, its my primary watch now. (have the Motoactv for excercise)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dirtymindedx:
Pro's slick and looks cool

Cons: many users ave had the issue of the watch freezing, rebooting, when clicking apps. I have had the issue of trying to control the music on my phone and the songs keep skipping to the next song like if I pressed the button only way to stop it is by opening taskmanager and killing the music app. The messaging app has made my cellphone keyboard not respond to letter presses. This is soooo buggy its ridiculous. Still debating on sending it back.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Masterface7:
I kick-started it and i think it is a win-win.

On the one hand i could have a sweet watch with great connect-ability to my phone and functionality with all sorts of apps.

On the other hand even if i never really do to much with the apps I have a nice e-ink watch with changeable display styles and information.

Plus, due to the high funding, they are making it water resistant enough to go swimming.

I got Sony Smartwatch MN2 yesterday. Nice watch.

Pros:

Cons:

- not like Liveview MN800, u should pay for almost nice plugin/app for this watch. :p

- the email plugin/app (except Gmail) doesnt support non-Sony gadget. (even it's Sony Erricson) >:(

- battery drain, with highly use, its only hold +-16 hours, then i need recharge this watch! >:(

- the metal, black rubber and white plastic is bad design i guess. When u hold MN2 in your hand, it's looks like a kid/teenage toys.

1. Search, search and search.. That should give you some knowledge and you'll be able to solve problems on your own.

2.You need to stop flashing roms,kernels, mods etc until you clearly understand what exactly you're doing and do backups before attempting to make any changes to your current rom in case something goes wrong.

Haha i hear ya there! I came from Motorola; was easy as hell and no worries about the flash counter. On the Motorola boot logo when you would unlock the bootloader it would display small text at the top stating "unlocked." I was still able to return the phone with no issues. Are Samsungs different? Will the deny warranty if the flash counter is tripped?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
One more thing op. It really should be mentioned about checking the md5. I know I'm lazy a lot of times but it really is important especially to someone new to this. They should feel more comfortable that the huge file they downloaded and are about to flash is still intact and not corrupted.

What I don't understand is why the kernel flash? If flashing Saurom already has the ability to overclock? Does flashing Da_G’s dagkernel do something else. Or does this only apply to other roms??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gordec:
If you are on Saurom, there is no reason to flash the existing kernels since they are part of the rom. If you are on stock GB rom, then you can potentially improve your phone's performance by flashing one of those kernels. The main advantage of the da_g's kernel is to allow overclocking. Even though all Galaxy Notes are tagged with a chip clock speed of 1500Ghz, every CPU is actually different. Yours may be perfectly stable running at 1700Ghz. The only way to tell is flash an overclock kernel to try a higher number to see if it improves performance and if it's stable to maintain it.

If your phone runs like the way you want it, there is no need to flash any the kernels. Of course, this is not all the kernels provide, so read the individual releases to see if there is anything that may benefit your needs.

Downloaded the ATT RootNote.zip and...

I assumed that we were supposed to unzip it so I did and now have att_note_root.tar that is 815 Mb?? Is that correct - seems awful large. Also I don't see any md5 sums (in fact the root.tar file doesn't have an md5 extension. Do we flash this using Odin??

So then I assume that we flash CWM I717 ....tar using Odin also (at least that's the way I put CWM on my Galaxy Tab 8.9.

Could you please verify the above for me before I start root & CWM.

Thanks a milion
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gordec:
Can you post the thread where you downloaded the file. I assume you are just trying to root your stock Note right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] docfreed:
Thanks for the quick reply - here's the info that you asked for:

Initial thread was http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1504218

from Da_G and I downloaded AT&T Note Root.zip - that file was 545 Mb and contains the Odin 1.85 zip (1 Mb), the USB Drivers (23 Mb) and a file called att_note_root.zip (535 Mb). I further unzipped the last file to finally get att_note_root.tar (815 Mb)!

This last tar file contains system.img.ext4 which I assume is the rooted stock kernel. BTW, I'm using 7Zip for unzipping and running Win7 - 64 Bit

Forgive me for being dense 'cause I'm used to using stuff like SuperOneClick or Zergrush to root my Sammy devices (couple of Galaxy tabs and the 5" Galaxy player) - all have CWM on them and I have never had the slightest issue)

At this point, all I wish to dop is root and install CWm so I can make a nandroid backup but I am thoroughly confused as there are several closely related threads on this.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

Can you start from begining?

Hi! first good job! Thanks everybody for all your time. I root few HTC And Windows mobile phone before but With The SG Notes I'm lost need adb?

Pleeeeease I'm verry lost!!!

Thanks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gordec:
@docfreed and uvail9u follow the following steps to get Clockworkmod (CWM), root and custom ROM. This is the easiest way but will raise your flash counter (most people don't care since no ATT employee is going to check your flash counter but you should be informed).

1. Install USB Driver for Windows see OP.

2. Flash CWM

a. downloading Odin 1.85 (see attachment)

b. extract it into a folder

c. download the latest and greatest Odin version of braway's CWM from here.

d. place that file in the Odin folder

e. Run Odin

f. Load the CWM .tar.md5 file under PDA in Odin (see attached screen shot).

g. put your phone into download mode see OP, and plug in your USB.

h. you should see Odin indicate COM port being detected, then hit Start.

3. After Odin is done, it will reboot your phone. You now have CWM.

4. Make a nandroid backup of your phone first by getting into CWM with instructions in the OP with button combos.

5. You can then download DAGr8's GB rom here or his ICS rom here.

5. Put the .zip file (check size btw in md5sum) in the root of your internal storage or external sd card of your choice.

6. Boot into CWM and choose the .zip of the rom and flash. You will have a custom rom and will be rooted.

P.S. I'm telling you to do the above steps because I believe it's the easiest way to get a custom ROM loaded, and you could brick your phone in the process, just be extra careful. If something doesn't feel right don't do it. Also you don't have to use DAGr8's rom. Other roms can be flashed the same way, but you can't flash all the ICSs roms directly from stock ATT GB rom or other GB roms, so be careful. If you just want to flash your first rom follow the above.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] docfreed:
So, if we follow this....

But stop after we do nandroid backup, we wind up with rooted stock? If so, you are a true lifesaver since at first I only want to root to remove bloatware!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gordec:
No if you only want to root, you don't even need CWM. Just install Odin and flash the root method by DaG in the OP. The one that increases flash counter. His download link may be down so see if someone can give you a link. You can also use the other method but it's little more complicated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] docfreed:
Right, but his link is down, and I want CWM so I can have a nandroid backup on my Note. So I am assuming that your method gives both CWM AND root?

you need to post this is Q and A; this thread is about rooting, NOT about problems with apps..no one will answer that in this thread...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RichMD:
I am in the same boat. I have Good on my Note and I know they check for root. I haven't rooted the note yet but I heard about "root keeper" in the market. Supposedly, it can unroot and reroot fairly easily but I haven't tried yet. I plan to kill the app (making sure persistence is off), root, run TB and freeze good right away. I will then test rooting and unrooting to see how that works and then try defrosting Good to see if I froze it before it detected root and if the temporary unroot hides it enough so it isn't detected. I will probably try this weekend - I've been holding out to make sure there are no problems with my Note (had it for a week) before rooting. It's driving me crazy having to run a stock rom though... :eek:
