[T-Mobile LG G2x] bobyang:
I have CWM installed so I could flash CM7 easily for each night build.

I am thinking to try out ICS. back to about 2 months ago, I could flash to ICS but the camera doens't work out well so I roll it back.

today, I see a lot of updates so I decide to give it a try again. I follow the instruction until "9.When welcome screen appears, DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING, let sit for 10 mins." After I reboot, I don't see "welcome screen" I only see LG logo popup, then I see "LG Logo with waves" for 15 minutes and then nothing happens. I just wonder if I did anything wrong? thanks

I have ext 4
[T-Mobile LG G2x] desynch-:
Would help if we knew what exactly you were flashing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] homerxd:
if your flash took only a couple of seconds.. then redo the flash until it takes more than 15 seconds. Your symptoms look like flash problem that is a known issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wyldkard:
Sounds like he flashed Genesis ICS rom by Mr.Apocolypse
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bobyang:
more info

sorry, I forget post more info.

I tried these two ROM:

1. HellFire ICS

2. Kang ICS

both have the same problem.

by the way, I did the backup before doing ICS. the first time roll back, it asked me to setup account like a new machine! so I did restore again. then second got fully restore. currently I am using CWM 3.0.1. I just wonder if this makes difference?

when I flash CM7, it took few minutes, but when I flash ICS, which is fast! only about 15 seconds. does this sound right?

thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] desynch-:
CWM 3? Update your CWM to the latest version (5.0.2.8 for normal CWM, or 5.8.1.3(?) for touch recovery). That might alleviate all your problems.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] daxecutioner24:
Yea I imagine you have an SD card just like the dude above me mentioned go with the newest cwm.Same way you flash 3
[HTC One X] Tinderbox (UK):
I just selected gallery and got a black screen, after a few seconds i clicked back to the apps page and then tried gallery again, just the same black screen, so i just did a restart and all it working fine now, I just thought i would report it.

I was just checking a few photo`s i took of my aunty and they are very poor quality, and the were taken in good light :mad:

Are the continuous photo`s lower quality than a single photo???

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjester:
Hi,

I searched for an answer to this, but couldnt find anything...

I noticed there was recently a 'leaked' firmware release for my p7500. I dont have a problem with installation, but dont seem to be able to find any reason why i should upgrade? I.e, what is different? Not even 'its better'. I assume its better, but still, does anyone know what has improved? I dont want to run the risk of bricking my tab for the sake of some different numbers in the about page... Id rather just wait for official ics...

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe T:
I just quickly google'd "XWKL1" and it seems to be a 2.3.6 update for the SGS II.

yes, that link any many like it (in fact, with same text) tell me how to install it... I get the how to, i dont get the why or what it improves... It only looks like it was 'leaked' end of march... Maybe no one knows? Lol
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravach0l:
Hello everyone!

After looking through the forum and only finding threads about contacts, I decided to create a thread about my problem. :)

So here it goes:

Yesterday, I gave my old HTC Desire to my gf. She had a rather old and run-down Nokia and her SMS were saved to her SIM-Card.

I looked through the options of the phone, running CM9, but only found the option to delete the messages.

Is it possible to copy them to the phone?

If it is, how?

Thanks in advance! :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bingley:
I don't think this is possible - my Desire can't see any 'saved to sim' messages, which is a shame as I've a new sim and really want the old messages. Anyone with any luck with this? Even an adb pull/ command would do me - how do I access the sim?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:
try open the sms app then press menu then settings and look there. on my phone theres an option to manage sms on sim card, maybe u can move them there.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bingley:
I'm blind. Or rather, I was blind! Completely missed that option. Works as it says on the tin, thanks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mini4cooper:
On my Android phone, there are only view/delete options in the SIM-card SMS management.

I can not move/copy the SMS from SIM card to new Android phone.

Is there any android app for this purpose ??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munchi:
Pansi SMS... My MIUI messaging app didn't have the option to copy/move the messages from SIM to Phone Memory so I referred to my favorite messaging app, Pansi, yes it has this option :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btiu:
bump

yes, [MENTION=4821768]munchi[/MENTION] 's answer is one of the apps.

try other sms apps. just search the net or playstore for other sms apps then check if it can copy sim messages to phone memory. sometimes stock sms has it, but other times you just need a different app that has that function.

There's handcent sms, go sms etc. , though i dont know if these have the function to copy sim messages. Theres also the "SIM manager" app in playstore by robotobia that can do that specific purpose and much more. Note that it doesn't work on all phones yet, but you may go check it out

I just tried robotobia's app on my galaxy Y. It can copy. But what should be classified as inbox, it became a sent message. I will contact the developer about this problem. So far, the only thing I find it useful for is to delete all sim messages in a flash. So i suggest finding a good sms app with this feature is still safer.

Hope this helps
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
Hello everyone,

Im a htc user and currently have the cm7 rom...

Believe me its awesome with its customizations

However some things need to be improved

If any of u advanced techies could help me port some of the apps right away from htc sense cm7 or vice versa (former is preferred) we could use sense type of apps on cm7!

Id love the contacts,dialer,lockscreen,launcher to be ported to cm7

Helpme to morph my existing cm7 apps or else pl help me directly install sense apps to cm7 without [parse,certificate errors]. How do i install them!

Iv have two phones one ofwhich is htc buzz aka wildfire{yeah its old} and nexus!

Awaiting reply...:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Thank u

(Thumbs up if u agree)
[General Questions and Answers] Skyღ:
Ask the developer of Cyanogenmod 7 about this . We can't help you , because we're not the developers of the rom . It isn't what you think so easy to just port it inside , it requires alot of source codes and concentration to do this . As a matter of fact , i think that this is a little bit beneficial to Htc users whom are running CM7 rom . However , i won't support this , because the developers can't be supporting for one device only .
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
U dont seem to have tried sense!! U haven't felt it i guess..

Anyway i just wondered if it was possible to replace res/ files in cm7 apps with that of sense
[General Questions and Answers] ninmeister:
How I understand it is, there is quite a bit more framework underneath Sense that the apps and widgets to go with Sense need. Sense has some pretty deep tendrils into Android that just a launcher skin.
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
So there is no way to hack them and use them wid custom roms?

N how do sense based custom roms get the sense then??
[General Questions and Answers] ninmeister:
...because they are modifying a Sense build.
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
What if i take a sense build and add cyanogenmod apps (mainly settings) to it? will it work?

How about dual framework??
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
OK simple answer is no. It will not work. They use totally different framework coding. The Sense apps will not work without the framework and closed sourced drivers. There is no wat to decode them without HTC releasing the code for it which they wont
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
Hey if i start of with buzz rom(stock sense) will, by any chance, i be able to add all of those cm7 settings??
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
No you won't has the coding is closed source and without the source code you can't make the needed code changes. Not to mention that CM7 has completely different coding set up from HTC. Sense is not open source so you can't make any changes to it.
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
Can htc stock lockscreen be made available on cm7?
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Get widget locker
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
It aint good and smooth..It kinda lags
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Hmm thats odd it doesnt have any lag at all for me. CM will most likely never add it is it is not open source and they tend to stick to the aosp code.
[General Questions and Answers] 1c3_5n0w:
Lockscreen

About the lockscreen, I use an App called MagicLocker and downloaded the Sense 3.0 theme together with it, it's not bad. Recommended.
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
Dont know why..:?

anyways had to clarify a thing...i managed to install sense apps ftom dk custom rom on my cm7

However they are force closing upon opening them..Any idea? Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
Thanks bro/girl...will give it a damn try.

But i was interested in having prev sense lockscreen
[General Questions and Answers] ontheflames:
Can u design a dialer app if i provide u with all res folder (and/or other)?? For cm7 code or like the market apps (dat work on any rom,any code)
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Thats because Sense apps need HTC framework files and drivers to work. Without them they dont wok.

I have never made an app. I only have done themes. if you are looking for a dilaer then dialer one is not bad
[Nokia Lumia 800] drupad2drupad:
On my Lumia 800 I have these two issues and not on my HTC Titan. Hence I am presuming it is device specific bug and not OS related or services related.

1) I can't get my twitter to link on Lumia. Every time I add it, it does 'connecting to twitter' for a few minutes and then takes me back to emails+accounts. Nothing is added there, in people hub or under me tile!

2) I can't open any links - in emails, facebook, news articles, blog posts or IE! I tap on the hyperlinks and it does nothing!

Anyone else heard/know of these issues? Any solution suggestions?

I've done a hard reset and this is my 2nd handset. First one had exactly the same issues. Plus battery only lasts about 4-5 hours on this as well as the last one.

Got it on contract with o2.
[Nokia Lumia 800] AndyFZ1S:
Have you got the latest firmware? 1600.2487.8107.12070, That was meant to enhance the battery issue, Links working from emails etc on mine ok, gave up using Twitter so can't really comment, Hope ya sort it.:confused:
[Nokia Lumia 800] drupad2drupad:
Did you give up twitter because you don't tweet any longer or you gave up because you can't sync it as well?

Know anyone else who had something similar?

I've talked to Nokia support, Nokia care, Zune support and Windows Phone UK - none of them have a clue!

I've been to O2 store twice now, they keep hard reseting my phone ffs and still doesn't fix anything!

Now they want me to send in my phone for repairs. Only had it for like 5 days and already had 2 replacements both with same issues - am sure it isn't a repair issue here :s
[Nokia Lumia 800] AndyFZ1S:
No gave up Twitter because it was ****e! and mainly on PC, but I did use it on my titan briefly with no problems, Don't know of anyone with similar issues sorry, Is it a branded O2 handset? I have an unlocked lumia but not sure where it originated/carrier wise as was from ebay, I would ***** slap the counter staff and get either a working one there and then or tell them to replace it with a 900, Really cannot think of why you cannot open links?

Read a few reviews of the twitter app and peeps complaining about not being able to log in etc, Maybe it's a lumia thing?

Or even a Giff gaff problem that is assuming ur still using your sim?

Try a different sim or even wi fi alone to narrow down your options.
[Nokia Lumia 800] drupad2drupad:
It's a branded O2 handset. Giffgaff lives in my Titan. O2 micro-SIM in O2. I have a feeling it's got something to do with O2 branding. The unbranded one I tried before buying this was awesome in every way. I would love to get it swapped for 900 though ;) Sadly we don't even have one yet :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] AndyFZ1S:
No way you can cut your giff gaff sim down to try it? Shame as I just sold a black lumia on ebay unlocked etc, can you cancel the contract? If all else fails pre order a 900 from phones 4u, I did and its £36 pm available from the 27th.

##634# field test, run all tests? worth a go maybe.
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
What happens if you're connected via WiFi??
[Nokia Lumia 800] shardnet:
Twitter is apparently currently having an app linking bug "new features" or something.

If you're a new user you're out of luck for the time being. But if you had a signin earlier you're fine.

At least remember there being a report about it or something.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pootown:
Trying to watch avis. Sideloaded video players from previous roms but no good. Installed mobo player run and it says instal codec ARMV7... which I do and still doesn't work. Any other players? I'm in china on business so alot of stuff on store isn't available tho apktops works and most download sites.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pootown:
Bump
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacampb2:
I have had good luck with MX player so far on the stock rom, on Task14, and CM9. This one too needs a codec DL'ed and installed. And for a few videos I had to switch it from hardware decoding to software decoding, but it has so far played anything I threw at it.

That said, if I am not mistaken, .AVI is only a container, it can "hold" a variety of different encoding types. It is possible that you have run up against something out of the norm, but my guess is that with the right player and settings, it will play. You might try checking the settings in the app you are trying to use now, see if you can switch from HW to software decoding.

Good Luck,

Jason
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orion78:
Since I flashed the (AOKP) rom, I seem to be having a major issue of the clock not updating. Its done it several times to me now. I just woke up and the Lockscreen is showing 5:45 am and yet the clock in the notifcation bar is stuck on 11:57, it just stays at the time until I reboot the phone.

Anyone else having this issue?

Hello xda-developers this it my first post, but it will be more and I will try to help you.

I have a SGS2, bought from Romania, but the CSC code is "XEF" which probably means that it was imported form France. Now I want to change my CSC in "HAT" or "COA" according to my country but I don't want to lose my warranty.

1) There is any method to do this?

2) If I will find the CSC files, flashing only this with Odin is possible and if yes I lose my warranty? I only flashed AIO or PDA,CSC,BOOT files in the mean time on my second phone,Samsung i5700, but never only one of those.

I tried with CSC Selector from Play and with Preconfig code, but my phone have no Multi-CSC, it have only "XEF".

My SGS2 informations:

PDA: I9100XWKJ2

PHONE: I9100XXKJ4

CSC I9100XEFKJ1

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorator:
Go into settings->about phone and write down what you have now.

Worst case IF you ever really need to get warranty just flash this package...

End of story. The link I gave you gives you the newest official ICS rom, non-rooted. It doesn't increase the custom binary counter (that's how they check if you messed with your phone) and it is official. Just flash it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razvan0311:
Ok, I didn't know that I can put the phone into download mode and flash a new firmware without increase the counter, thx
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
The only thing that increases the counter is flashing specifically a kernel via Odin that is not signed by Samsung.

This is why flashing some ROMs won't necessarily increase the counter: If you flash a ROM that includes a kernel that is signed by Samsung, it will keep the counter at zero.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razvan0311:

I have to put this kernel for not loosing my warranty? If yes, how?

Thank you again
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Should be fine. But the link isn't broken, per se. Just right-click it, and "save link as". That will save the .7z file to wherever you want.

That kernel is posted just in case you need it, if you flash a custom or insecure kernel, and want to flash back to stock. If you don't flash a custom of insecure kernel, you won't need it. Wouldn't hurt you to download it anyways though, again, just in case you need it later.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razvan0311:
Ok, thank you :) ... And, only to be sure, this version will not count in download mode in case I have to sent the phone to sercice, no?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanye92:
No
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razvan0311:
Thanks I will flash it right now :)

And there is any way to check the counter?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
As I said above, it will not. The firmware has a kernel signed by Samsung in it.

When you go into Download mode, it will display a count if you have ever flashed a non-Samsung signed kernel. If you have never done so, it will not display a count at all.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razvan0311:
Thank you very much... I will flash this night, for the moment I am trying to figure out how to backup my current ROM and data :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You'll have to install CWM recovery to do this... which means flashing a kernel NOT signed by Samsung, which means increasing your counter.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razvan0311:
So there isn't any method... I will flash it right now

Just wondering if the unbrickable mod is a cure for the ics encryption unsuccessful error or if it doesnt do the job either.. anyone try it yet?

Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
From what I read in the Cappy thread, it does not fix it and actually Adam got his hands on an Encrypted phone and he can't get it to run correctly. Right now there is no cure other than running off/ repartitioning your external, but I may have found a clue into the cause.

Look here on page 38 and my post is 379 and the next 3 pages are some insightful reading.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
Wow.

Yeah i just read those three pages and it seems very interesting, particularly how mtp is ics and honeycomb exclusive.. did honeycomb use ext3 for app and media storage?

Also, just to contribute a bit, some people seem to have the grave bug where their internal sd is just plain shot which seems to come after the reboot after using MTP, while others are getting the issue upon flasshing or just randomly and are managing tto just yank batt, factory reset and fix the phone. Maybe theyre two different encryption bugs altogether?

Perhaps ics shells out the same error for two different flavors of the bug?

Other than that, i dont think im versed well enough in this bug to contribute and i dont have access to any bricked anythings either so good luck without me lol...

I left ics the moment i read about the bug; my phone needs to work and i cant go buy another. Has anything changed? Should ii go flash ics slim or is it still as dangerous and devastating?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
You've been a big help to me in that past here and there, so my words to you are if you are not comfortable in the gamble, stay on Froyo/GB until we find out what is the actual cause. MTP is only a theory now, but it does seem to be panning out. It is totally random as far as ROMs, so if try Slim, good luck.

I am testing out Fishman's mod of Deranged9 and if you liked the Toxic ROMs, you should like this one. He should be releasing it soon.
