[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mick3444:
Would you mind saying what you did to brick it. I want to flash some galaxy nexus themes but am not sure how to. I would assume it would be:

Odin el26 recovery

Flash Theme

Flash ICS kernel

reboot

Correct?

Edit: Was it because that theme was for the GSM galaxy nexus???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] badname:
i did

1. odin el26 cwm

2. flash calks mod wipe

3. flash aokp rom

4. flash gapps

5. flash theme

6. reboot and enjoy

just because im not sure where the latest kernel is or how to get it.

and intructions to get rid of navbar are on the previous page
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mick3444:
Thanx so much! FYI you can find the lastest aosp kernel (FD10) in the AOKP thread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skndeep102:
I've flashed the sense 4 theme every time I run aokp. I always just have my setup how I like then go back into cwm and wipe cache then flash theme flash kernel reboot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mmmajor:
I just flashed it also..worked perfectly..looks amazing..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skndeep102:
Did it break your mms and 4g?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] themisterwilson:
Hmmm the Black Infinitum theme is breaking my MMS. I even removed the mms parts from the zip and still no luck. I'm on a little vacation lol so I'm gonna keep messing w it. But, if anyone else has the fix please let me know lol

Idk if its breaking 4g cuz I don't even use it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] T.C.P:
Gn themes will break 4g but ns4g shouldn't
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] themisterwilson:
Maybe I'll see if I can learn to port the theme. I need a new project now that I made myself single lol :cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skndeep102:
Good to know. Thanks tcp

Are we supposed to download the GSM ones or the LTE?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] temotoren956:
I downloaded the Amoled Blue for the Nexus S 4g and it worked it perfectly except when recording video it won't start recording in HD settings. I'm using build 32 with Amoled Blue for B32. Is there a work around?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
Try pushing the original camera.apk from aokp instead of the themed one from amoled blue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] T.C.P:
what he said, aokp camera is moddde so it can record, so using anything but that camera will break it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] temotoren956:
Thanks the for the tip. I got the video recording again. Awesome Rom.

[G2 and Desire Z General] yesshh:
Hey guys,

Noob question here.

I haven't rooted a G2 since 2010, and I just had to replace my old one due to some hardware errors. I would like to root this one and install one of the new ICS roms, but there seems to be a wealth of information these days and I am lost on how to do it currently.

What is the most current way of rooting?

Thanks for your help, back to reading.
[G2 and Desire Z General] crestofawave:
The method found in the wiki. Solid guide, you won't have any issues if you're careful.

You basically have to downgrade to older (and exploitable) firmware (preferably following Setherio's guide) and then just follow the wiki for the most part.

Sent from my DZ.
[G2 and Desire Z General] yesshh:
Yeah, did what you said, worked perfectly.

Once Clockwork was installed, I remembered what to do from there.

Downloaded and installed MIUI rom of some sort. I tried Andromadus and didn't like it so much yet. It was a little slow for me. This MIUI rom is working pretty nice.

Any recommendation for someone just getting back into the "choosing a rom" game?

*Also, thanks for your help on my posts, greatly appreciated*
[G2 and Desire Z General] PNuT.:

[G2 and Desire Z General] yesshh:
My thoughts exactly!
[G2 and Desire Z General] crestofawave:
I'm gonna go with what I find best. Keep in mind, this is my opinion.

CyanogenMod - ILWT

My personal favourite, due to the fact you can extensively customize it to your needs before installation. It's wicked fast too! Alternatively EliteMod is also a good choice.

Ice Cream Sandwich - Andromadus Audacity

This is ICS built from source for our device. Needless to say, it was a lot of work. Excellent effort for an excellent ROM. ICS, however, at it's current state tends to have worse performance and battery life when compared to Gingerbread. It also has some bugs here and there, and the camera is not completely working, due to the framework overhaul for the camera in ICS. Regardless, if you want to use ICS this is the way to go.

Sense 4.0A - Virtuous Primadonna / Ice Cream SenseWich / IceZSense

Keep in mind though, Sense 4 is still at early state of development (from our dev teams that is), and things like camera will not work at all. There are also some additional bugs that will be somewhat harder to figure out (proprietary code majig). Although, it is definitely fast and smooth. I think camera is being worked on at this moment by a fellow XDA user, and he has had some success with getting the camera to work.

Sense 3.5 - AndRev

This is probably one of the fastest Sense 3.5 ROM's around. Keep in mind though, Sense 3.5 IS bloated and is considerably slow when compared to others. Alternatively you can try Virtuous Affinity.

Sense 2.1 (Stock) - Virtuous Sense

If you want to keep it stock, this is the way to go.

Barebone - Virtuous G-Lite

This is without the doubt the best barebone ROM around, it's got lots of memory, lots of battery life and is generally fast. You can install everything else you need for extra functionality through the market.

MIUI - Strawmetal.Mi

Any of the stock will work, but this ROM is further optimized and will save you some time if you were to tweak.

Hope I shed some light :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] yesshh:
Oh yeah, thanks for the post. I used CyanogenMod a while back, and I really enjoyed it, but I have also been enjoying the MIUI I installed the other day. I think I am going to stick with it. I tried Strawmetal but I will end up staying with mexdroidmod I believe.

I am going to check the rest of those out as well. Thanks again.
[General Questions and Answers] doublehp:
When I set a picture for a contact in Gmail (computer), and/or different one in the contact editor of the phone, none of them are shown in the contact viewer.

I can see the photo set from computer in the contact EDITOR, but as soon as I save or cancel it, I don't have any photo left. Photos comes back when I start edition.

As result, I don't have any pic for any contact anywhere: phone book, chats ...

Sometimes I have a picture during phone calls, but it's not always the one I have set (it can be an old, and will stay the same even after edition).

How to get my contacts have a picture ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mike21pr:
Im having an annoying issue with my Vivid where when im trying to play a video in the youtube app, and in landscape mode (full screen) my screen ALWAYS dims and its annoying since the video sometimes cant be seen clearly because of it. I flip it back to portrait and it goes full brightness.again. Anyone else have this issue? Or is there some fix?

Btw, i dont have auto brightness on, full brightness on my end. I also tried to uninstall updates and no luck. Im on stock 4.0.3 unrooted
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
I haven't experienced this problem. Have you cleared the app cache and data? Im on deodexed stock ics rooted.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mike21pr:
Just did. No luck. I updated OTA from stock GB. Did not want to go this far, but im gonna try a factory reset to see if starting clean helps since i kept my GB data when I updated
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
Sometimes thats the only option i would run the RUU to be completely certain something didnt get borked during the OTA upgrade.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tanner4137:
I have this problem too! I'm running stock ICS
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mike21pr:
Just finished setting everything up again. Factory reset seems to have done the trick. Ill update if it happens again
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mike21pr:
It friggin did it again!!!! Im outta ideas....

Edit: I think I figured it out... Sensor still working even if auto brightness is off, I have a pen with an integrated flashlight, and after pointing the light to the sensor in the phone while playing the video, sure enough brightness went back up. Same issue (or feature) that the capacitive buttons have, annoying nevertheless
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
Could be an issue with your ambient light sensor?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mike21pr:
Maybe... Because I noticed that the same time the issue is ocurring, when I switch with auto brightness from full brightness, the screen stays the same till after i shut off the screen and wake it back up which is where the sensor kicks in
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tattycakes:
Hi,

I'm having the exact same issue as you. It happens regardless of how high the screen brightness is, and whether autobrightness is on or off.

It's nice and bright on vertical view, then as soon as you rotate it to fullscreen, the screen dims and it's almost impossible to see the video.

I'm running stock 4.0.3 on a Sensation XE, and I've done multiple full factory resets on my device, no joy.

Any ideas?

Is there a port for the touchwiz ics from epic 4g touch to the epic 4g? I don't see any in the development section. Shouldn't it be a lot easier since everything would work?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
NOPE... a touchwiz ics ROM is like 500+mbs in size... doesnt leave alot of ROM memory... and would still be less usable than any other ICS rom we have.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
Hi,

Now I did search as much as possible on the interwebs, like tiamat's blog, xda, miui forums etc. So I guess I'll go ahead and ask this sorta noob question (:eek: oh no he didn't :p).

Why are there no 3.0 kernels and what would be the advantage of them? On a tangent, I note that even the transformer prime has no 3.0 kernel...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amphibliam:
What in the name of balls is a 3.0 kernel?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
Linux kernel version 3.x. As in we are currently using kernel version 2.6.35.x.. Galaxy nexus has 3.08 kernel or something.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zax_Was_Here:
We're currently using modified gingerbread kernels (the 2.6 ones i think?) because we havent received kernel source from HTC yet

This phone is slated for an ICS update, once we get that and kernel source i'm pretty sure a 3.0 kernel will follow
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dirkdigles:
It's because we don't have an official update yet. That's what all the ICS roms are pretty much waiting for - an offical ICS kernel from HTC.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
Okay. So as I understand the kernel will have several proprietary modules and therefore we can't compile our own 3.0 kernel yet? As it may cause several incompatibilities, am I right?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
No, we just can't compile one because we don't have source.

Swyped From My MikRunny'd Superphone Using TapaTalk 2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
I am confused. The linux kernel is open source. So the Source code for the 3.0 kernel is available. So, what do you mean by "we don't have source"? Are you referring to any drivers whose modules we may not have as they are proprietary? Or something else?

Anyway, I just realized thanks to this article that the 3.0 kernel is no big deal and has no new, "awesome" features and is not a major jump like the GB to ICS, or gnome 2 to gnome 3, or the KDE 3 to KDE 4 jump... Just a new numbering scheme. So, may be the kernel we have now is more than enough to run ICS (except for the camera glitch though...)

Thanks for the responses guys!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
The Linux kernel is, yes. However, a kernel is very device specific. So, without having one from an OTA or better yet, HTC releasing kernel source code for this device specifically, we can't make any. So far (as stated before), all our ics ROMs are using hacked up gingerbread kernels (which is an incredible feat in itself). We have basic kernel source code, sure, but what we're lacking is the proprietary drivers, libs, and other stuff that makes this device run.

Hope this all made sense.

Swyped From My MikRunny'd Superphone Using TapaTalk 2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
Each kernel is device specific with the oem s specific changes....it is possible to build one without the.exact source...but you would need some similar source for reference like teamhacksung using the nexus s as a base for sgs phones
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] litetaker:
Yes, this helps me understand it better. Anyway, I'm not really waiting for the 3.0 kernel anymore as I learned it was just a renumbering scheme! I was expecting I could launch a space shuttle with it, like I can drive my car supersonic with ICS (hehehe..) But it apparently has just the usual dose of bug fixes compared to our current kernel.

Thanks y'all!

Hello.

How to start the HTC Clock application directly on the Alarm tab ?

I used to have a Sander widget that used to start Clock on non-default tab; probably chrono. This time, I am not using any widget, and I need to start the Alarm tab by default, via any system call (shell with "am start", or activity call). I am not using Java; I am using shell; but if you have the code in Java, I should be able to adapt.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zer0nine:
In my area, yes. Modem performance is area dependent. On ICS modem, I would constantly have no signal every 5 min or so which would kill my battery life.. On GB UCLA modem, I am constantly connected to a signal and it makes a huge difference.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AeroEchelon:
Quite curious as I am under the assumption that when the phone is in DEEP SLEEP, the CPU is powered down to conserve battery. However, if BLN is active with blink notification how is blinking controlled?

On a related note, does no blinking save or not save any battery life?

EDIT: Sorry, I meant DEEP SLEEP. DEEP IDLE is so frequently used on the forums I mistaked it in this post.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
first of all, i think you dont understand what deep idle is. deep idle is a very low power state where your cpu IS active. for example, its used when you are listening to music with your screen off. deep sleep is when your cpu is in a hibernating state, when your phone isnt active and the screen is off. deep sleep is the ideal state to save battery. but when your cpu is active, deep sleep isnt possible. the next step up is deep idle(not all kernels have this as it also is guilty of causing issues for some phones). when the soft keys are blinking, this does wake your phone from deep sleep.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AeroEchelon:
Ahh! That was my mistake. I definitely do know what DEEP IDLE is. I meant DEEP SLEEP. (I know it doesn't help when I put it in caps.) DEEP IDLE is an additional state introduced by Ezekeel as an intermediate state between DEEP SLEEP and IDLE. I understand.

Regarding my question, does that mean your phone is not in sleep while blinking is occuring? It seems like such a waste of battery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
thats one reason i dont use it. the other is that i would rather check for notification on my time :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AeroEchelon:
Thanks simms22 for your quick response.

Actually on the topic of deep idle, it seems if the CPU was active to blink the LEDs, deep idle state seems like the perfect candidate. :P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
it could very well be, but maybe not :p
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Blinking keeps the phone awake (excessive battery drain, deep idle helps but it's not worth it still). If you keep it static and on, the phone will happily go into deep sleep (this is how i set mine up).

You can test this with CPU Spy if you like, these are my findings.

I remember when the first group of Windows Phones came out, there where some with micro-SD card slots inside the actual device. I was wondering, is there one of those inside the Lumia 900? If so, I'd love to crack mine open and pop in a 64GB card. I have a feeling we're just stuck with the lame 16GB though (really depressing, coming from 32GB).
[Nokia Lumia 900] JMackey:
