[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Depends on which kernel you're using. Basically, if you've used fastboot to boot the kernel correctly then when you reboot you should see the kernel flashscreen e.g. doomkernel has doomlords android in cloak, etc. If that's the case, enter cwm by repeatedly spamming(pressing) the back key or volume key once the lights come on. You'll get a menu with cwm(clockword mod recovery) options such as format phone, backup/restore, install zip, and others. If you're flashing a rom then make sure it's on your sd card, use 'install zip' and select the rom(or update) zip to flash, and confirm. If it's a different dev from the rom your current rom then also select factory reset to wipe any previous data, and advanced/wipe dalvik, to ensure a clean install. then reboot.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Try flashing the rom again, in this order; wipe data/factory reset, install zip, install wifi modules, wipe dalvik cache. reboot

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Are you getting the bootscreen, think in jj's it's the new xperia boot.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clowry2011:
To make it easier could you provide me a good rom and kernel that go together?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
If you want ics then jj's or krabappels are probably the easiest, but use the ics beta kernel. Arconium with doomkernel 21(gingerbread) is probably your best bet due to the support.

[LG Optimus 2x] brainin64:
What is a Ram hack? .... what is the optimal size for a ram hack? ....
[LG Optimus 2x] andresilva:
Hello,

In ours lg 2x there is the ram memory (512mb) that is shared between the cpu and the graphics gpu. By default the graphics gpu takes 128mb of the ram for its own usage leaving the rest to the cpu.

A ramhack is a way to reallocate part of the ram used by the graphics gpu to the cpu thus making more ram available to the system and apps.

Of course that the gpu still needs an amount of ram to properly do all the functions so the tested amount of ram viable to an ram hack should be 48mb. This way nothing gets broken in the gpu usage.

I'm note 100% certain of this, but i think that's it.

Cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] black_mamba99:
RAM hack of 32mb is ideal.everything works gr8.no decreased performance on 720p/1080p or video playback or any games.

anything above 32mb then u start to see 1080p not working followed by 720p with higher mb hacks
[LG Optimus 2x] brainin64:
...........even without ram hack in my device i can see lag while playing videos of 720p or 1080p !:confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] black_mamba99:
that depends a lot on codecs.a really high bitrate video will lag+ certain mp4 videos wont play in 1080p.that is normal.

this is true even for some of the high end phones in market today like HTC one X and galaxy note.

if the highest bitrate(i m using 20mbps )1080p video(recorded from your own optimus 2x camera) is playing normally(without lags),then your device is perfectly normal
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Lekerstein:
Hey all,

I am thinking about getting the official Samsung car dock but had a few questions before I bought it:

1) In my youth, I heard that plugging and unplugging a device shortened the battery life. I am afraid that would be the case when I would charge my phone on the way home from work, when it's only like 40% still. Do these new batteries still have the shortened battery life problem when the charge cycle does not get complete? The same question applies to an alarm clock with phone dock that I am thinking about purchasing (know any good ones?).

2) I have a custom stereo with a USB input. Would it just work to go straight from the mini-USB to the stereo USB, and not need to use both the AUX output from the dock as well as the cigarette lighter? I guess using the AUX option I could bypass the issue in #1 above, since AUX doesn't charge it (mini-USB to USB does charge the phone), but I still prefer mini-USB to USB for audio quality.

3) This is a general question. My car originally had a two-din stereo, and I bought a 1-din with a compartment for the other din. Has anyone seen something that could go in the din to help hold the dock?

Thanks for any help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] chibixzero:
The car dock sticks to your windshield or it comes with a plastic dics that you can permanently stick to the dashboard.

The dock comes with a cigarette/micro usb cord the connects to the dock. And for audio unless your stereo has bluetooth audio you will need to use a auxiliary 3.5m jack from phone to car.. That's how I have it set up on my car
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
The car dock will not allow a USB connection to the USB port - it is changed to an analog audio output when docked.

As to 1) - That's an old rule from the days of ****ty timed chargers that would start charging a battery for a set period of time when you turned it on. No phone sold on the market today is set up like this - they all have intelligent battery charging circuits that can handle almost any plugging/unplugging pattern.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] JCreazy:
I have seen a lot of threads about wifi issues but never could find a straight answer. I received my galaxy tab today refurbed from newegg. Anyway, when I try to connect to my home wifi, it is WPA2, the tab says authenticating, but the wifi signal drops and it never connects, then the box pops up again asking for the key. If I use tethering on my phone with no protection it connects just fine. My question is, is there a trick to fox this, my second question is, if I install cm9 on it will that eliminate the problem completely? Thanks

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thevelcrobandit:
I've been trying to get info on what new phones will be available by the end of the year but the only phone I can find is the galaxy s3. Will this be the best high end model by q4 2012? Or should I hold out for something better?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironlood:
Its hard to say, phone tech evolves very fast. While the Galaxy S III will probably be a monster when it releases it can potentially be overshadowed by phones released in Q4. When i got the SGS Vibrant on Tmo i was excited to know it was the best phone they had then after getting locked into a contract the Vibrant 4G released, making me mad as hell.

Best thing i can suggest is do your research and find out the pros and cons of a phone you want to get and see if you can live for 2 years with that. I was interested in the HTC one S coming to Tmo but the only thing that is a turn off for me is the memory or better yet the lack of (16Gb internal and no expansion)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
On every ICS ROM I have used, the root is mounted as R/W by default and thus so are all the other partitions, is this intentional? Does not seem right to me.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kwes1020:
Hmm I never really checked, but I don't recall noticing that. After I finish this theme I'll flash back to ics and look.

Edit: Actually I'm on modded stock 2.3.3 right now and it mounts root as r/w too. So I doubt its just ics. Everything after root is r/o until mounts.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
My init script mounts everything as R/W because:

1. That's my personal preference, since i build them for me first.

2. I feel that a rooted phone should have full read/write ability from the start.

Nobody has ever commented or asked me to change it in my roms, so i never did. If anyone has a problem with it, then we'll talk it over and i'll make a decision on whether or not to keep it, remove it, or give the user the option on how to mount their directories.

Just my opinion..... :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] r.snyder:
Isn't this the point if having root?!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
Not to keep it R/W, but to give apps you've given root access to to be able to access the root.

I feel that with it being R/W all the time apps I haven't given root access to could access root.

Maybe it's just my OCD tendencies but I like it to be R/O by default, guess I'll have to get over it

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickeedoo:
This is a very short question.

I have the Xperia Play. It's blue. It's AT&T branded.

HOWEVER...

It has the r800at firmware. I assume this means I can't unlock the bootloader.

But I thought AT&T=GSM, Verizon=CDMA.

Does the AT&T version have a CDMA radio? I'm really confused.

Sorry, I just got this phone today and I don't really know what I'm doing. Thanks!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickeedoo:
Also, for whatever reason, I can't get a connection to the AT&T network. The phone app sees my sim's contacts, but I still get a "No Sim Card" error. Wut.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0mega007:
no gsm radio on that one, only verizon one r800x is cdma, also maybe is not sim unlocked so cant read your sim if isnt an att one
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickeedoo:
Ok... so It's the GSM version? Then why can't it register on the network with my AT&T sim, I wonder? Strange...

Edit: I wonder if it's the wrong firmware...

Edit2: When I search for networks, it finds 2 AT&T networks (a 3g and a 2g) and a Tmobile network. After getting a "Your sim does not allow a connection to this network" error for all 3, I clicked "Select automatically" and got

"Registered on network." (It successfully registered on automatic again)

But STILL no network access and a No SIM error. What der heck?!

Edit3: After installing the IT ROM, my model number is now listed as an "R800x".
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trygon:
IT-Rom is a CDMA ROM, and the build.prop reflects this. Install a GSM ROM.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickeedoo:
Well I just took off the battery and looked at the sticker on the main board, it says r800at. I would definitely brick my device if I installed a gsm rom... right?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
If you have a Sim card, your phone is GSM, not CDMA. So you want to avoid roms that are for the R800x like the one you chose.

If this is an AT&T phone and you have a valid sim card, why don't you call AT&T and see if they can help you?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
Let's see.

Your R800at device has a GSM radio, but your bootloader is blocked, because your device is branded, and sim-locked. There's no way you can get an R800at sim-unlocked.

You should flash only GSM roms (that is, anything except R800x roms) and then check their compatibility with your phone's radio (remember that although AT&T uses GSM, it uses a different band than the rest of the world).

Restore your phone, and read things again. Or unlock your bootloader with the paid method.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickeedoo:
Ah! Thanks guys! Well... no wonder my wifi isn't working. And maybe that's why my radio hasn't been either, we shall see. As for the roms, what can I install? I haven't found any for a locked gsm version...

Edit: Ignore the derping above. I found one within like 5 seconds of looking. :P

Edit2: Also looks like I'm going to have to adb push the cwm auto installer. D'oh!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
Where did you get the idea that R800at = CDMA? It's always been the AT&T GSM HSPA+ model. There is no contradiction.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickeedoo:
Dude, it's like I said. I barely know anything about this phone... just be glad I'm not asking questions like "what is an adb" and "how do I install it on my phone!!?" lol.

Also, is the r800a firmware for cdma or gsm devices? Because that's what my phone had on it when I got it from the dude.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leraeniesh:
As stated above many times,

the R800x is the ONLY CDMA Xperia Play.

All others, R800a/i/at are GSM.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightningdude:
R800x is the absolute only CDMA Xperia Play there is. If there's any letter other than "x" at the end of R800, it's GSM.

Edit: Leraenish beat me to it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickeedoo:
Ok, installed a GSM rom. Still "no sim card" error.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaygrae:
Whoever said the r800at cannot be sim unlocked that is not true. I unlocked my bootloader and my sim. Have even tested it with a friend's thru tmobile now.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captain67:
He meant it's impossible for an AT&T model to be sim unlocked when you just took it out of the box.

It is possible to get it unlocked later on though.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre51:
Actually if you unlock the bootloader it sim unlocks it too. Right out of the box but you do have to pay.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
Then what he means is that they do not sell new unlocked R800at phones and that you must unlock it yourself through a service.

This is a how-to guide one how to set a theme chooser theme as default. I see a lot of users asking for it, so I decide to make a guide.

Download Theme Chooser Theme

Download apk manager from here or here and extract it to C:\apk-manager\

Place your theme apk in place-apk-here-for-modding folder

Open Script.bat (Screenshot)

Choose Option 22 - Select Project

Select your theme

Choose option 9 - Decompile Apk

Go to Projects

Open AndroidManifest.xml

Copy the pluto:themeID and package (Screenshot)

Open Build.prop and scroll down to the end

There will be two lines like: persist.sys.themeId=Cyanbread and persist.sys.themePackageName=com.tmobile.theme.Cyanbread (Screenshot)

Change them to match your theme

Now copy the theme apk to /data/app/ or /system/app/ of the ROM you are cooking or the theme won't work ;)

If you follow my guide, please press the Thanks button :)

Using htcdev method to unlock your phone doesn't give you complete unlock solution it prevents fastboot commands that's why you are unable to supercid your device using fastboot command.

Using HTC unlocked bootloader you can still flash roms but you can only flash roms which are having stock kernel as option like ARHD. any other kernel will not be accepted by bootloader

Can you first verify your CID and MID and post it here

type "fastboot getvar cid" and "fastboot getvar mid"

these commands will work as they are doing just reads :D

Edit2:

Can you give me small info?

Type

"dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p16_bkp"

Without quotes on terminal emulator after typing su

(Be careful while using dd command its extremely low level command and its quite risky(may brick the device if typed wrongly)

so double check the command before pressing enter

Also this command will just read the block so it might pose no problem but be cautious just in case)

And send the mmcblk0p16_bkp (will be at sdcard root once you type the command) through private message to me/or post it here if its fine with you
