home button is a known issue...i should make a list of known issues...
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] aszelinski:
I'm running the A100 vangogh version 9.0.0 RC0 and I'm having GPS issues. Sygic and Navicon just crash when opening them. I had no issues wth the GPS till I upgraded to CM9 from ICS Leak .12. Is this a known issue with CM9?

Sent from my A100
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ptesmoke:
some people have reported issues but i experience the opposite....my gps was always terrible on my a100, after cm9 i loaded up gps status and while the initial lock took 1-4 mins...i now get locks in my house and twice the sats seen.

now keep in mind depending where you are your gps.conf file should be modified for your local ntp servers. theres a great thread in the samsung captivate dev forum...im mobile atm so cant link.

but yea...i get 8-12 sat locks now....when on stock i was lucky to even see 2 sats..

Am I the only one with

As near as I can see system can't be made writable. Not a deal breaker for me, but should be noted in the release notes.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] masr1979:
System IS writable, but you have to re-root. Do a little search and you should find pertaining info on this very thread. I had to manually do the process (Zeronull's package didn't work), and I had to do it from terminal emulator, as opposed to ADB.

Can't say about the default.prop since I don't have my tab with me A.T.M.

Hello,

I have used iOS for a long time and now I switched to Android and was wondering how I can sign and/or encrypt emails (S/MIME). Is there an easy way like on iOS 5.x?

I have a HTC One X running Android 4.0.3 and could not found corresponding settings.

Thank you very much for your help!

Best regards,

What I've noticed with ICS, it will pick up 10 to 11 sats right away.

The problems is getting it to lock on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgcruzing:
confirms my suspicions, as I was trying to use it out in Wuhan (middle of China) and it was being painful..

What have they done to the drivers to make it so bad?

Problem is you can't go backwards as I have already tried this by loading in the old Drivers from HC..GPS doesn't want to turn on..

I wonder if the Zoom has got any files we can use?

I am figuring that the files the boys are using for their Roms are pulled from Asus stock, so at this stage not the optimal type we want to use..
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgcruzing:
another day another location.. GPS is sucking now..

If I get some time, I think I am going to have to flash back to GB and run the same tests.. but I know already that I was able to pick up some Sat's on GB at the same locations and on the same Pad..

Actually surprised I have not heard from some of team moan on this problem..

I guess the boot loops are keeping them pre-occupied..

But seriously, any other's on stock not having fun with the gps anymore?

on a more sinister note..

Has Asus screwed us on the TF101 ICS GPS drivers to keep the Prime guys happy?

Edit: holy, got some Sats on it today.. but couldn't get it to lock in to any for Google maps to work.. needs more playing on it I think..
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Globespy:
I notice you keep talking about GB? The TF comes with honeycomb, at least anywhere I've seen it. Hopefully Google/Asus fix the GPS, I've read that the prime also had issues, which makes me believe it's software. Does the prime use the same GPS hardware as the original TF 101?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgcruzing:
Yes, my mistake..corrected..I was meaning HC versions..

As to prime v transformer gps hardware specs I are not 100% sure.

But under impression most of thier problems come from case/position of the gps as some if the fixs included paper clips..and now the doggle..

I can't use gmail & google play store after rooting my phone i don;t know what happen . but other then that everything is fine .:confused:
[Desire HD General] shad0wboss:
try going to applications and after going to "All" tab, look for google play store and then clear data. After you do that, restart phone and try using market again.
[Desire HD General] JeromeSama:
it worked :D

thanks :D
[Desire HD General] shad0wboss:
haha i'm glad :)
[Desire HD General] JeromeSama:
Btw is it a must to erase everything on my cell n backup data before flashing a rom ?

Why is that has to be done ?
[Desire HD General] zelendel:
This is due to the file structure being different between different roms. Grab Titainium back up from the market and make sure you have your contacts linked to google and you will be fine
[Desire HD General] JeromeSama:
I have titanium backup n backed up current stock ROM , contacts via gmail

im just researching which rom to flash
[Desire HD General] shad0wboss:
I would personally recommend you flashing this sense 3.5 rom which i'm using and it's pretty stable with an amazing battery life...and i'm planning on staying with it until a proper sense 4 rom is released or a complete aosp one...
[Desire HD General] JeromeSama:
Hmmm what bout leedriod or something driod ? Cyanogenmod 7. 2?

Im using 2.1 sense & I don't really liked it
[Desire HD General] csection:
Well Sense 3.5 is way better than Sense 2.1, but Sense based ROMs are generally a little slower (owing to all the animations and effects).

I am using this. It is a custom CM7.2 based ROM (I am using this with lordmodUEv9.5-ICS-BFS kernel). Its quite fast and very much responsive.

Slightly offtopic, how good is the battery backup?
[Desire HD General] JeromeSama:
Hmm sense based rom is like what you mention , but I prefer cm 7.2

battery wise I foumd setvsel it helps alot ...

I want cm 7 then sense

is it a bad choice ?

Thanks for asking
[Desire HD General] JeromeSama:
How is cm7.2 custom rom ? Im bit scared & Nervous on which to flash . I liked ice cream theme so Im not sure ...
[Desire HD General] Teichopsia:
Before you flash, make sure you read the instructions. I jave the bad tendency of not reading first, which has led to a lot of trial and errors. I believe it was with cm7.2, when I flashed it it got stuck on the bootscreen. Later on I found out that you needed to flash cm7.1 and then cm7.2 for it to work. Some are full roms, others are just updates.

What to flash? That depends on what you like once you start flashing. Do try to stay with the same rom for a few days. That is, nevermind.... you'll find your own way.

Last thing, titanium backup is a 50-50 thing from what i've read so far. By restoring apps using TB it could bring errors. Once again, thats a 50-50 and nothing by my own experience. I download everything all over again. Before your first flash, make a backup of your rom... I forgot to do that one :D

Sent from a dream.
[Desire HD General] JeromeSama:
Thanks :)

I know that ive to flash current rom on rom manager , backup data on sd card , back up data for apps , contacts through gmail, sms etc

its all done just im not sure which to flash , its more like I can't decide. But I really like ics 4.0 theme so im still deciding

anyways thank you for the advice , warning :))
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arranstobbs:
Hi, I have downloaded some firmwares to my Samsung galaxy s2. The last firmware I put on was Official I thought but in download mode where is says "Curent Binary" it says custom. How do I get that back to official samsung? Is there a way through kies, like with iPhone where itunes can reinstall the os?

Also does a firmware that is vodafone branded be put on a handset that is on the three network? Would it affect the signal?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Get a jig from eBay. If you find the jig doesn't work, flash the 'old' bootloader from here. Yes you can flash Vodafone branded firmware on a phone that uses 3's network. No, it shouldn't affect the signal. These things are dependent on your modem, and most roms don't replace your existing modem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arranstobbs:
I flashed using a firmware from this site. http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9100&r=-1#modelsa and it returned it to the Samsung Official. Everything is back to standard.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshS2:
Is flashing the old bootloader safe on a custom ROM? Even if it's an AOKP ROM? Cheers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Yep.

However, some roms may not boot with the old bootloader (In saying that, I'm running it with CM9, but I didn't muck around with stock versions of ICS beforehand which might have changed it to a BL which doesn't work with CM9). If in doubt, ask the developer of the custom rom you're using if it works OK with the old bootloader (I presume you want to get rid of the boot triangle ?).

Obviously you run a very small risk of bricking your phone every time you flash anything, and you only flash/mess with bootloaders when you have a specific reason for same.

Having to send your phone to Samsung/your carrier for warranty service is one of those reasons, and if you've gone back to stock & your jig won't work, flashing the old bootloader is a simple no mucking around way of getting it done.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshS2:
I just got my phone back from repair and they upgraded it to the latest version of ICS with the ICS Bootloader. I've flashed Hydrogen-ICS and I've got the yellow triangle, obviously the USB jig won't sort it because of the bootloader. There's no disadvantage to having the triangle other than if I need to send it back under warranty is there? I think I might just leave it and sort it if the time comes.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Ahhhh OK. Gotcha ;)

No, the triangle is only a 'cosmetic' thing. You could probably flash the old bootloader, get rid of the triangle, flash the new bootloader, and be on your merry way. But if it doesn't bother you & you've got Hydrogen running the way you want & everything is hunky dory otherwise, there's no need to do it :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshS2:
Ah right, I think I will just leave it for now as it doesn't really bother me! Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arranstobbs:
When i flashed back the triangle was gone and i used the branded rom so it has the three network boot logo again just like the day i pulled it out the box all the same apps and it worked like normal in kies i even had a successful update in kies. Though it took some work didnt reconize the device after a good 30mins of pluging and pulling and restarting. I also found some apps can stop kies working apparently, ones from market not on pc. And i had a custome 2.3.6. I just fancied having back to normal till i get bored again.

man you guys need to learn........... ics bootloader use triangle away, is that simple.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arranstobbs:
I don't understand what you mean by that? Mine doesn't?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
"Triangle Away" is an app by Chainfire on the Play Store. Costs a couple bucks, but you don't have to flash an old bootloader and/or wait for a USB jig to get to you, which is your other option.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joravis:
You can avoid the counter increase, simply flash your archives via CWM instead of doing it via Odin. It won't update the counter, so the triangle won't appear :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
wow someone need to fix his knowledge for this!

---------- Post added at 10:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 AM ----------

tutorial kinda................ thats how i run

1: flashed cwm (attached) via odin

2: wiped everything, including system

3: flashed stock ICS via odin

4: rooted via cf-root

5: used triangle away to reset counter and triangle

6: install mobile odin

7: flashed the cwm kernel extracted from the same and flashed using mobile odin [zimage]

8: now i have cwm without counter and triangle.

9: flashed cm9 using cwm

now i can flash whatever rom via cwm, without counter issue.

you want to flash kernel use mobileodin again and you wont update counter.

hope this helps.

EDiT: odin is 99.9% for stock ROM's thus will not raise counter. only when you flash cwm for the first time with odin you get counter + triangle.

hope this helps.

Sorry peeps but its not gonna happen unless you turn things down and/or off. Light levels,sound levels,oom levels,o/c levels,gps,data,sync intervals etc etc etc.The battery on the wildfire has (lets be honest) always been quite poor,to put it mildly. The way I see it and get over this issue is think how long a laptop would last with constant use!!! Now compare your phones battery life which your probably trying to run like a laptop!! Rant over.

P.s I'm not trying to upset or anger anybody and if I have it wasn't my intention,I was just emphasizing the point that this issue has been discussed and methods to increase battery life are all over this forum.

Are you using any scripts in the init.d folder?

Or have you any badly coded apps installed? How many apps do you have?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerpyWebber:
If you want an ultimate solution, restore your phone to factory settings using CWM, flash a lightweight ROM, underclock your processor, try not to multitask as much (quit apps, don't just go home), turn off background data, lower your screen brightness, and, if all that doesn't work, get a new battery! If even that doesn't work, you probably have a faulty device.
