If so does it solve any of my below issues ?

Posted Image [Q] CM9 on Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 3 UK Network Provider

New to this forum so apoligies if this post is in the incorrect place.

I rooted and installed CM9 last night and tried to follow the noob guide which was not that clear especially when you don't know what flash means. I know I am a real noob I ended up finding a great video by searching Samsung galaxy s2 root. Had all the links and latest version of cf root.

I have to say CM9 is what the S2 should of been like !

I have a few questions though. Sorry in advance if these are noobie questiins.

1. On stock ics for my device when i chose a picture from gallery for wallpaper it would let you choose if you wanted it in portrait or across 3 parts. Now I have a box which I have to adjust and I can never get the size correct !!!

2. How do I get a seperate picture on my lock screen.

3. How do I get camera to save to SD card , there is no option in camera settings ?? would this be because google devices have no sd slot ? is so how can i change this?

4. How do I get the cool unlock effect then after I do that get the pin option ?

5. Anyway of adjusting keyboard options like key size (way to small at the moment) and feedback as vibration is too strong at present.

6. How do I get folders in the app draw ? Can only do it on homescreen. Very annoying as could do this previously and I am ocd with these things.

7. Found that if I use the camera there is a very slight pink splodge in the center of the screen. Never had this before ?

8. No 3G but i do get the H symbol occasionallyy pop up??

9. Battery life poor and really really much worst whilst using gps.

10. gps takes at least 5 mins to get a signal on navigation / maps even when i have it fully on.

11. How can I get notification numbers on the text and email symbol on the homescreen ? beleive its on stock ics.

12. Anyone know if whilst in rom manager I can update to the latest nightly build and is this the best way to update my phone now i am on cm9 ?

13. Sometimes my homescreen swipes are inaccurate ?

14. keyboard presses sometimes dont vibrate but letter appears?

15. anyone know how to get music player to look like this. http://www.xda-developers.com/wp-con...sic.jpg?139d23. the cm9 one looks grey and dull and has less options.

16. my videos on my sd card wont play ??

17. lost notes which came with the s2? where can i find it ??

18. how can i get gestures like cm7

19. how can i change themes as the option seems to be unavailable in the menu e.g its there but wont let me press it ?/

Thanks in advance. I know there are lots of questions here and all the little things here won't put me off using cm9 as its sooo much better than stock !!

Hi. VOIP doesn't work in my country due to restrictions but you can try this.

1. Download anycut from the market.

2. Long hold desktop > add shortcut.

3. Click on Activity.

4. Click on SIP Settings.

5. An icon will appear on the desktop.

6. Click on icon and set it up as you wish.

I think this is a much simpler approach and just works without root or any modification.

If you wish then you can uninstall anycut after you finish. In its defense it is a 32kb program made by a Googler.

Hi there,

I often have some lags on my Android (HTC Desire S on MIUI GB).

So i grabbed some logcats, and I found these coming regulary with the lags :

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0065:
Hey guys,

So here's my dilemma. I was thinking of getting a netbook for professional purposes (word, mindmapping software and possibily vintage gaming) but I've com to the conclusion that most netbooks pretty much suck hardware-wise (can't even do HD video <.<).

So I took a look at both the Transformers, and with their keyboard dock they seemed like a perfect choice, for their size and usability.

However, the vintage gaming I'm looking for (that I'm willing to throw away at this point) was only available for Windows (mostly). So being that I'm possibly opting for an Android "tablet-book" I'm still wondering this:

Are the rumors that Windows 8 will be ARM-compatible and possbily will work on the Transformer Prime? If so I might get one. If not I'll possibly go for the original transformer. But that leaves me with another question:

Except for the quad-core is the difference from the Tegra2 to the Tegra3 really steep in terms of performance?

Thanks in advance,

K.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goatshocker:
Dont hold your breath for windows 8. The rumor says its only going to be sold pre-installed on devices, and not available for download to other devices. And since it isnt open source, porting it to other devices would be quite tricky, and also piss microsoft off.

The Prime is faster, no doubt. But is it enough to justify the price differences? I dont think so.

The tegra2 can not handle 1080p movies. The prime struggles with them as well but can play most of them.

But in whole, it sounds like a tablet wont satisfy your needs, unless you got access to a windows PC you can use through remote desktop all the time.

A tablet can not replace a laptop/pc yet. They arent ment for that. Once win8 tablets start to mature, that might change. But that might take years.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0065:
Before anything thanks for the reply, every input is useful :)

The point is, I don't need it to substitute my desktop PC (I have a gaming rig, it would be impossible xD), I do need it to be able to work on documents on the go, read stuff, and browse the web like it was a netbook, but without sacrificing the abitity to watch video like I would have on a netbook.

In terms of gaming I only really need it to run all Android games flawlessly :P
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goatshocker:
That wont happen, for several reasons;

Gameloft, which has a big amount of good games, hardly supports the Transformers, forcing us to find the games by other means.

A lot of games is only coded for crappy phones with their low-res screens, making them unplayable on a tablet with a larger resolution.

If you want an android device that can play the majority of the games available, you're better of getting a high-end phone ... its a sad world we're living in...

That said, there is a lot of games available, but some takes a lot of time to find.

One example is Order & Chaos... It took me 2 weeks before I actually found a version that works on the TF101, and once gameloft decides to update the game - who knows how long it will take before it will work again.

We have a thread here that lists the gameloft games currently known to work on our TF101's. The list itself isnt updated in quite a while, but the last few pages lists some more games.

I think the Prime forum got a similar thread.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0065:
Thanks for the advice again :)

But honestly I don't play Gameloft stuff because I hate their shanenigans of making crappy coded games that don't even work the same on two phones with the same hardware.

I'm talking more about many of the indie games that have been popping up on the Market from Osmos HD, to Avadon and Canabalt among many others.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danzano:
Its a hard choice but if you want gps and great wifi the original tf is the choice.

Documents on the go no problems for me.

If you root and use custom roms and overclock the performance difference at the moment does not justify the price.

Gaming thats a hard one some might say games dont work or hd games are usually released for the prime etc etc. But for me i play ps1 n64 gameboy etc with a ps3 controller on my tf101 i also play sims freeplay and a load of other games that i got direct from the market. You may not get all games but i think the best part of say 4-5 hundred games would be enough for anyone.

The ability to hook it up to the tv and play ps1 games with opengl (makes the old graphics look way better) alone makes it worth loving my android tablet.

Also when i had to decide between netbook and android tablet the winner for me was the tf101 because i can get 18hrs battery life most netbooks i have seen are lucky to last 6.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdfuogh:
I can watch videos fine on my transformer (I'm not really an avid video watcher who can ONLY watch things in super super HD, seriously, 720 is really good on a screen this small). My tablet is very useful because I mostly browse, read pdfs, and take notes. Sadly, I find that I'm using the keyboard less and less, since the only time I really use it is when I have to type up reports, and latex works better with a bigger screen so I don't even use the keyboard much then..
[HTC Sensation] Pikachu320:
Hello everyone!

It's seems to look like another "would you upgrade the phone of your GF to ICS" (which can actually lead to tensions *skip lame part*), but it's not.

I have in my hands a sensation Z710e from Korea, still running gingerbread.

Being now in Europe (more precisely in Belgium), I would expect to have the ICS stock upgrade (cf. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1570785).

But no update showing up on the phone. I guess the problem comes from the build (1.46.911.4 CL149869 RELEASE-KES) or the baseband (10.57.9035.00U_10.14.9035.09_M) which are Korean and not European.

Questions:

- Will I ever get any update of this phone, in Europe, OTA?

- Is it possible to update the baseband/build to have an European baseband (and follow OTA updates)?

- Is it dangerous (it's not my phone I don't want to brick it)?

- Should I follow this : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1472298 with such a korean phone? I have no S-off for now, and phone version doesn't seem supported http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary?

Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure if or when you would get an update but I have rooted and s-offed two of my friend's phones including the sensation. I did the sensation a few months ago and they are happy with it
[HTC Sensation] Pikachu320:
Can I change country with the help of the s-off ?

And did someone already try to change the country of the sensation?
[HTC Sensation] adamgaltress:
I believe so
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
S-off, change your cid to the local carrier and you should get the update. You'll want to s-off before the update anyways because you can't once your hboot updates.
[HTC Sensation] adamgaltress:
I'm not sure in that one actually, I thought you meant changing the country by installing a local ROM. Personally I think I would super cid, s-off, and root and then install the local stock ROM or any of the other ROMs like Android revolution and then you could unroot and turn s-on if you wanted to, but it is all extra stuff to do.
[HTC Sensation] Bharath9590:
GB to ICS Update India postponed to May 14th

dude dont worry you will definitely get the update... we in India are scheduled for next month
[HTC Sensation] azzledazzle:
S-OFF takes 10mins.

Change CID take 10 seconds lol

Do them 2 steps and the Update should come through.

You dont have to CID, Just change it to unbranded Europe. But superCID is better and isnt any more complicated

The Samsung galaxy note seems to limit the available volume because of safety reason. I found a post that removes the volume limit for call volume but I need it for music volume
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Helios909:
I've tried everything that people have suggested. The only thing that worked was using an equalizer from the market and then using an application other than the stock music player (like power-amp) to listen to music. Unfortunately this doesn't sound that great as even at small equalizer gain values it seems to degrade the sound quality and ultimately at higher gains distorts. Sadly even after rooting and running non-stock ROM's I can't seem to boost the audio values.

In most headphones and auxiliary ports the phones volume is quite good through the mini-jack. However, my work truck is awful and it needs to be boosted and maxed when streaming internet radio to even have a moderately loud listening volume.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] capite:
Volume+ app by Meltus worked for me on the Unofficial ROM -- at least I think it did. Maybe it was just the EQ settings that did it?

Can you point me to the post that removes the volume limit for call volume? That's exactly what I need! :o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] C0BRA01:
Same here. Call volume is pretty quiet on GB, or ICS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lactardjosh:
This is a little silly, but have you both made sure you're actually lining up the speaker with your ear when you're talking on the phone? The phone is so big that it didn't line up the same as smaller phones. I notice quite a bit of difference when I adjust the speaker to line up directly with my ear.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] capite:
I did notice that in your other thread. It did make a real difference but not enough unfortunately.

Hi everybody, I am an engineer and I think that windows phone is perfect for my needs..so fast and efficient, office integrated, easy to use and many other qualities..the only thing that I can't find for this OS is Mathstudio.

For those who don't know what's this, it's like having a graphic calculator always in your poket. This program doesn't make everything, of course, but many of the most common things can be done with mathstudio.

I was wondering if somebody could port this program from android/iOS to windows phone 7. Otherwise I must always go around with my mobile and with an ipod touch only for this program. I remember that the previous version of mathstudio (called spacetime) exsists for windows mobile 6.5, an other way could be a porting from windows mobile. I wrote to the official developer but he said he won't realse a windows phone 7 version of his program.

Thank you for listening
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Porting WinMo apps is technically possible (though hard unless they were written initially in .NET). Making an unmodified WinMo app run on WP7 is very hard and usually requires a custom ROM to run it (the stock ROMs have very restrictive permissions policies that most WinMo apps can't work with). Porting iOS or Android apps pretty much requires re-writing them, which is an expense that some app authors don't find worth doing.

There are a number of graphing calculator apps available for WP7, and the built-in calculator works pretty well for non-graphing functions, but I can understand wanting access to a specific tool. Unfortunately, since I've never used the app you describe, I can't tell you how well any of the WP7 alternatives compare.
