Gallery can be improved a great deal by changing the default cache size, there's a thread with the fix that you cam google for.

As for battery, I find it comparable to GB.. perhaphs you're experiencing the android os bug?
[Nexus S General] saintshakajin:
When I had ICS 4.0.3 OTA, I was happy to have ICS but Nexus S was slow, poor performance.

I made a clean installation with the Flashable ROM and it was more powerfull. Sometimes, this is required to proceed to a clean installation.

By the way, still waiting for 4.0.4 OTA :'(
[Nexus S General] Warren_Orange:
Thats all I want.

4.0.3. was perfect for me.

Still waiting for OTA though :(
[Nexus S General] feinux:
404 is better than 403, and less battery drain.
[Galaxy S II General] poppienutshell:
Hi All,

Just wanna share a solution to a problem that had me frustrated for months trying to get sms working properly on my phone, especially after rom flashes.

This solution worked for me but I offer no guarantee to anybody wants to give this a try. Don't worry, it's nothing high level so it won't brick your phone or FC the hell outta ya.

## Edit: I know that most of you can set the SMS message centre number via Messaging app>Settings>SMSC number. For me, I can't do that cos for some reason, the ROM i'm using somehow does not have that setting option in the messaging app, I don't know why cos that's up to the ROM dev. So I used the dialer codes to access that setting instead. Either way works, whichever you feel is more accessible.

*Note: The SMSC number used in my example is for Singapore Singtel users only. For other telcos or even people from other countries, please find out your SMS service number in the list below first before trying out the steps below. The method will work only if you have the correct service number from your telco.

If you have the same problems as me:

Can receive SMSes

Can receive/send MMSes

Can surf Internet/No issues with data/3G working perfectly fine

Simply just CANNOT send /reply any SMSes

...then do the following:

Go to your dialer

Key in *#*#4636#*#*

From the menu, choose Phone Information

Scroll down the page until you see an item called "SMSC:" with a textbox right beside it

Tap on the textbox and key in the numbers: 06915669917777

Tap on the Update button

Exit the page using the back key or home button

Try sending or replying to a SMS. There you have it, it should work.

## I wished to compile a list of SMSC numbers of any telco of any country. Combined with the method above, you get a viable solution to what it seems to be a frustrating problem for some of us here. Feel free to contribute your SMSC info here and I will periodically amend the listing accordingly. If this solution still doesn't work for you then I can only say that I'm sorry, there's only so much one can provide. Hopefully you can find your solution elsewhere in the XDA universe, I'm sure there will be something for you.

Why on earth did you not add Singapore Singtel users only your title
[Galaxy S II General] poppienutshell:
Why on earth did you not read further? I mentioned that the solution is for Singapore Singtel users only because the SMSC number that I indicated is from Singtel. I do not know what SMSC number that the other telcos are using SO, I quote myself again:

For the sake of pampered readers like you, I have amended my note in the post so that you don't have to waste kilojoules of energy to read. This solution can be used anywhere in the world. The only differing factor is the SMSC number used by your respective telco. That, is for you to find out. Therefore, I'm not restricting the solution to only Singapore Singtel users.

If anyone of you is kind enough to post your telco's SMSC number here, I will gladly compile a list.
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Well yes OP is right but its a standard reply to all with SMS problem check your Message Centre settings posted here since the dawn of SGS2 .

List of numbers sounds good but those with problems wont search and wont read OP took months to find a well posted solution .

I say that as i have just answered exact same SMS question again .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] poppienutshell:
Yes you are probably right. But I do not see any sticky on this issue. And there are plenty of feedback from pple trying to find solutions but only found questions unanswered.

I was just thinking if my OP can be sticky that probably it can help in needless searching.
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Stickies would be needed for every single item on SGS2 starting with the On button .

This thread will be lost within days so no long term help .

Sure no biggie, sticky or not, I'm sure this can help in one way or another. Since there can be so many solutions to a problem, I'm happy to provide one out of so many alternatives.

In a way I made my own sticky by putting it in my sig :cool:

Hi override182, thanks for the contribute!

Ask a mod to put it in the stickie thread is what i suggest then it does not get lost .

[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
I think its a problem in my sim card from 2 days that i can't send sms, i also tried this a day ago but it just fails to send sms

But the SMSC number i used can also be wrong, so if anyone can tell me the SMSC number of tata docomo-india then i will confirm it if its a sim card problem or SMSC
[Galaxy S II General] poppienutshell:
Hi sahibunlimited, sorry to hear u have this problem too. As I have mentioned in OP, you might want to enquire about the correct SMSC number from your telco first before attempting this fix, in your case calling up tata docomo will be your best bet in getting the accurate info.

Once you get that info, you might also want to post it here so that it might also help others in your region who could encounter the same problem as well. I will gladly add your info to my listing.
[Galaxy S II General] poppienutshell:
Appreciate your suggestion. So, a shoutout to mods out there, if you have read this thread and find it sticky-worthy, please do so. I will do my part in actively maintaining this thread.
[Galaxy S II General] poppienutshell:
any more of you out there willing to contribute your info here?

I will just need your telco name and SMSC number. If you don't know how to get the SMSC number, you can acces it via Messaging app>Settings>SMSC.

OR alternatively, you can go to your dialer and key in *#*#4636#*#*. Scoll down until you see the SMSC item with a textbox beside it. Hit the refresh button and if you are one of those who did not have any problems with SMSC before, you should see a lengthy number appearing in the textbox. That will be your SMSC number.

I appreciate all that can contribute some input here.
[Galaxy S II General] o0boiboi0o:

[Galaxy S II General] Nasty_z:
Had a similar problem once on Aokp/Aosp roms, I switched to Samsung rom and SMS used to be sent but on Aosp it didn't work. The smsc was the problem but it couldn't be changed using the dialer code. It used to give me some error. The solution I later found was to go to the Samsung messaging app , put in my messaging center number and voila! It works just perfect in any rom now, including aosp roms :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] cablesguy:
Im using Maxis in Malaysia, and your solution Solved my problem, thx :good:, Im just wondering since the no given 0120000015 is without the international prefix which is +6 , will sms's still work overseas or even in Sg whilst roaming?

I tried keying in +60120000015 but it says input error, only accepts the no without the prefix.

Just realised that I have to repeat the steps by rekeying the number in whenever i reboot my phone?? Any ideas??
[Galaxy S II General] poppienutshell:
sorry for the late late reply.

as far as i know, without the prefix it still works bcos when overseas u will be roaming and the overseas telco will recognise the smsc number by identifying your sim card locale settings, which i assume will declare the prefix that the telco should use. So no problem here :)

To be fair I will test it out since I'm also going away for a vacation soon.

As to you having to rekey the numbers, actually you do not have to. After keying in the dialer code, when you are in the interface, you may just see an empty box beside the SMSC field but you just need to hit Refresh and after 1-2s you should see the SMSC number displayed in the box. I dunno why its always showing an empty box but you shouldn't worry. As long you enter the correct number and update the first time, it should always be there.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] FarmerBlair:
Hi!

I used my P500 for some months with CyanogenMmat, which is really great but sometimes produced screen freezes.

Now I'm giving my phone to a technically less skilled person. To make sure this person enjoys the phone as much as I did, I want to install an adequate rom for her.

In my opinion this means, the rom should be really stable and guarantee long battery life. Also it wouldn't hurt if the rom was quite up2date, but that's not the main issue.

Can you recommend me a rom?

Thank you very much in advance!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bhawan:
Hi,

I recommend you to give her the phone with rooted official GB because according to my experience, I believe that official one is the best for technically less skilled person and I also suggest you to install Player pro for best experience of music with its inbuilt 5 band equalizer and you may also use DSP pack but I think it will hard for her to adjust the 10 band equalizer..

Also suggest you to use flash player 11 for stock rom to enjoy online games and videos.. Search the XDA for the thread..

And no doubt that battery backup is good on stock roms. You can also use Juice defender app for enhancing the battery life.

If she use Stock rom definitely she will not face any problem with wifi, usb, 2G,3G or any thing else.

Press THANKS If I helped you.!!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] okle100:

i cannot suggest what are the best battery friendly kernel between the new ones(fk 4,roqxiii,ta 1.1,etc...) i think all of them are performance oriented

Hi,

I installed RocketRom v.23 and so far it is great, aside from some minor issues.

However, as I need to return the phone back for some other reason, is there any way to find what was the original ROM on my phone before I install this custom ROM on top of it? Maybe from the IMEI or sth???

PLEASE ADVICE cause I know they will not accept it without the original ROM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
It is not possible to know

But you can find ROm for your country from here N flash it with PC Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyanv:
I think you can check the date of your purchase invoice of the device and find a rom released before that date and flash it. You can find the date adjacent to rom details in Dr. Ketans thread.

[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
Is it any chance to flash some sense 4 ROM into my Sensation with official update of ICS ? I unlocked bootloader from htc website but still s-on hboot 1.27?

Is any way maybe to downgrade to gingerbread or other solution for this ? :confused:
[HTC Sensation] usaff22:
No. There are countless threads saying Revolutionary S-OFF is needed on Gingerbread before upgrading. Please read, now you will have to wait until someone finds a way to unlock it on the new HBOOT.

Don't use HTCDev. You're just letting HTC know you've rooted your phone. I'm not sure why people even use it - maybe because they think it's "official" or something. Oh well.
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
Is it possible to do official update from gingerbread to ICS while s-off ?
[HTC Sensation] davebugyi:
No. Well actually you can, but 95% that your phone will not boot :)

You want a Sense 4 ROM? Then flash one from the Development section?

You want official ROM? Do not flash on a rooted/S-Offed phine- use the RUU.

By the way the development sub-forum has a lot of guides and answers ;)
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
Thanks but I already did official update to ICS and now no way back until someone make it possible.
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
Why then on htc official site say unlock bootloader to flash custom rom if it is not possible because s-on ?
[HTC Sensation] ThomasAndroid:
I remember unlocking my bootloader. It actually does not S Off. But I managed to root. Problem though is that my phone in running on ICS. Theres no way I can get my phone to S Off, and now cannot flash a custom ROM.
[HTC Sensation] usaff22:
Doesn't a custom recovery work? Have you tried Super-CID?
[HTC Sensation] Imperatorpg:
any news for 1.27 ?
[HTC Sensation] ThomasAndroid:
It works. Never tried super CID. I only unlocked my bootloader. No S Off. Weird.

Easiest way to flash cwm on your phone: download latest cwm by squadzone.. place it on the root of your sdcard, not inside any folder.. boot to stock recovery.. apply update from sdcard, you should be able to see the cwm zip, choose it and confirm install.. you will have cwm once you boot again to recovery..
