[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venky.balaji:
Whenever I am trying to install a custom ROM the phone is getting stucked either at Wiping data or installing update. I am unable to go beyond that. Has my phone bricked???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelvin fong:
ICS rom? If yes, flash abyss kernel first
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anilisanil:
Did you restore a NAND back up recently?

Could be possible that you lost root.

Your phone is not bricked, just that you have messed up software.

Start from scratch again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hellosunnydays:
I contacted SGP via their Amazon seller page months ago about an Ultra Capsule for the Verizon/Sprint model and they said one was in the works. However, today I contacted the company through their website and they do not have plans to release one :(

Here is the response:

Just wanted to update those waiting on this case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inline:
Hi, I am currently on CM9 Alpha 2. I followed this video to install it from rooted stock: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vu1PQoqq7cY&feature=player_embedded

I want to upgrade it to Alpha 3. On the Install Guide site, it says that you do not need to wipe data or go back to gingerbread to upgrade. Yet on QBKing77's video it says to not try to flash any ICS rom while on an ICS rom, does he exclude CM9 itself?

So my question is can I follow those same exact steps in the video to upgrade CM9 and if not, what exact steps do I follow? It's confusing since the steps on the Install Guide are different then those of QBKing77's video.

Big shout out to him though, videos are awesome!

Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] whitewindhtc:
Warning: Attempt this modification at your own discretion. I am not responsible for any damages which may occur.

After attempting to OC my phone, I noticed hot spots when stressing my CPU at 1.4ghz. Looking at the anatomy of my phone (http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-S-I-9000-Teardown/7122/1), I noticed the structural mid-plate is a metallic alloy. This modification tries to cool the CPU and other heat generating ICs by using the phone's mid-plate and EMI shielding as a heatsink.

Test:

CPU stressed for 10 Min at 1.4ghz starting from a minimum cooled state. Application: “Stability Test”

Before Mod: 53oC (127.5oF) at 7 min 48 sec (I cut the test short as I did not want to overheat my phone)

After Mod: 43oC (109.5oF) at 10 min 10 sec

Procedure:

1.	Teardown your phone as per the ifixit.com site and extract the mainboard.

2.	Remove the simcard & MicroSD EMI Shield

3.	Apply thermal compound to all the raised ICs. This allows the EMI shield to act as a small heatsink.

4.	Reinstall EMI Shield and press down firmly to allow proper contact with the thermal compound

5.	On the other side of the mainboard, liberally apply thermal compound onto the exposed ICs as per the pictures. Note: There is a relatively large gap between the surface of the ICs and the mid-plate.

6.	Reinstall mainboard and press firmly against the mid-plate. If the thermal compound is making contact with the midplate then there should be some slight resistance when trying to lift the mainboard. If there is no resistance, then you will need to apply more thermal compound.

7.	Install remaining components and close up your phone.

I used Arctic Silver 5 as I had some laying around. It is probably better to use a non metallic thermal compound, but I have yet to experience any problems with electric components.

My phone has been modded for about 2 weeks, running @ 1.5ghz and I have yet to experience any ill effects with operating system or with the OLED screen.

Though this mod is reversible, it may be messy cleaning up the thermal compound from your phone.

Happy Modding :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] PatcheZ:
interesting idea...

although it sounds like your just trying to squish as much pb&j between the plate and the ic's.

indeed, i've never had trouble with AS5 but would probably go with a non metallic compound for this.

PS wow, that's a LOT of AS5... must have cost you $5 just in compound just to do that :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] whitewindhtc:
Either way, conduction is almost always better than convection in terms of cooling a heat source. It might be a little messy, but the mod is quite effective.

The amount of thermal compound is quite a bit, but I wanted to ensure that I made contact with the 'heatsink'. There are many cheaper thermal compound alternatives than AS5, but I ran out of the generic white stuff.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] evil_fish:
very good idea.. thanks for sharing. do you think using thermal pad in this case would be better solution than thermal compound? or do think that thermal pad. won't work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] whitewindhtc:
Although thermal pads would be cleaner, they are also more difficult to use in this application due to the variation in gap spacing between the component and heatsink.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] R4DK0:
Wanted to fix the GPS antenna connector, ended doing this aswell, although just RAM and CPU. The amount of thermal grease is really enourmous for a proper contact. To anyone who will do this aswell, take your time, its not hard, just be patient :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] NDeaz:
wow, great!

Btw, in which kernel you use OC 1.5ghz?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] darkknigh_t:
Devil kernel can do that :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] NDeaz:
1.5ghz it's 1400mhz*107%liveoc? or what?

P.S. interesting to see benchmark results on 1.5ghz ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jorgemiguel4:
Thank you for the idea. Just done that with thermal pads since it's more clean.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] R4DK0:
Where do you get that stuff? I couldnt find any seller in my country. Ebay/amazon?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jorgemiguel4:
Ebay
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] darkknigh_t:
How are the temps with the termal pads? Do you notice any improvement?

Does the phone still heat up when oc and playing games?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jorgemiguel4:
I havent't measured it with any app, but noticed that the heat is more spreaded over the phone after some time playing a game... That's a good thing, I guess.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AcECream7:
Looks like a good idea. Getting the most out of this little device always helps.:p
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] R4DK0:
Do you guys get stability over 1.2-1.3GHz? Achieved with "oc" and/or "live oc"? After applying this mod, this thermal compound, the phone definately heats up more evenly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] microboi_android:
Thanks for the idea.. i'll try this one..

better not damage my SGS :D. (i hope :angel:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] elektroda:
How thick pad do you recommend? Would 0.5 mm be too much?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jorgemiguel4:
I have used 1mm thick on mine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] skerdzius:
how this enormous OC affected battery life? will it last through the day?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] elektroda:
I also used 1mm thick but I highly recommend using 0,5mm thermal pad and avoiding bulky look and possibly screen popping up slightly.

If you use custom kernels and governor you could prolong battery life even when OC-ed. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AmirAnwar:
Can you upload a video ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] elektroda:
sorry I have not taken any video while doing this process but you could see pics in first post attachment. Maybe that would give you idea about process.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AmirAnwar:
performance ? Sorry bad English
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] elektroda:
I can surely tell that performance is significantly better and noticable. I bumped speed @1.2G and it was rock stable, I tortured it through antutu and cpu stability test. 1.3G is semi stable cause It requires slight voltage bump which I did not play with (I still have to do this).

Bat temp is around 44C after 20 min of torturing which is very good starting from low 20-23c.

This is tested on KK cyanaosp v2.4.0 with build in kernel no special teaks or whatsoever. I will report back when I test more with voltage bump.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AmirAnwar:
Wow! Thanks for replied :)
[Atrix 4G General] gutts10:
Hey guys!! First post but im daily xda atrix forum visitor. Anyway, I installed the new cm9 beta 5.0 yesterday. It works great and I love it (thanks jokersax!!). I have been goin back and forth between cm9 and cm7 for the past 3 months. I love cm9 but there was always a couple a nagging issues that prevented it from being my daily, therefore, I always reverted to çm7. I thought this version cm9 was going to be my daily; up until an hour ago. Playback of videos are bjorked. Videos that have been working perfectly fine in previous versions of cm9 are so sloe and choppy in 5.0.

Sorry for the long post but any advice would be appreciated. Btw I spent the last hour searching the boards and Google but did not find anything. Sorry in advance if this has been posted before.

TIA!!!

:cool:
[Atrix 4G General] quetzalcoatl2435:
Use MX Player with software decoding. Hardware video decoding on ICS is borked until we get proper drivers.
[Atrix 4G General] gutts10:
OK thanks! I figured that was the case. The only reason I asked is that I could've sworn playback was working on previous versions on cm9. OK thanks bro!!

On a side note. What is the video recording app everyone is using since thats been borked for a while and does Skype video chat work?

I got same thing on MX 1.6. Fixed for me by downloading to PC from MX website, transferring files to phone, and installing from phone afterwards.

https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/download
[Atrix 4G General] quetzalcoatl2435:
Hmmm... I'm getting fairly good results with MX Player. But I re-encode my videos for the Atrix's screen size (max. 960x540, if source is smaller, keep source resolution). 720p (and up) movies are still choppy. I guess our CPU can't handle decoding HD resolution movies using software only.
[Atrix 4G General] gutts10:
oooo ok i see what ur talkin bout. im sorry i wasnt clear enough. i was talkin about playing my videos that i shot with the video camera (before i had cm9). although i guess it would be the same thing. i shot those videos in 1080p so i guess like you said the cpu cant handle it. that stinks! i was hoping to play my videos to family when i get back to NYC. i could always save the vidz on my computer then re-encode them i guess.

o well, thanks again!!!

I can't install CWM. I know there's that recovery installer apk but my transformer says there was a problem parsing the package. I don't know of any other way. I also tried unrooting my tablet by flashing a WW stock rom and stock recovery but Superuser stayed and it doesn't even work. It's basically all messed up. Can someone help me please?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] horndroid:
Since you went back to stock ROM, do wipe data from boot menu and root again with Vipermod, and then try running the recovery installer apk.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
What firmware are you on? That message is either a bad download or your firmware is not compatible with the apk.

Now you also say you flash WW ROM and stock recovery, how did you flash it without cwm?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marescallus:
What boot menu?

8.2.3.13. I flashed them when I still had CWM and fully rooted.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Yeah you flashed the repacked ROM. That's pretty outdated firmware. You need to manually update to the latest ICS (if it doesn't auto update), use ViperMod to root and RecoveryInstaller for CWM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marescallus:
How do I manually update? Is that when you go into settings and stuff and check to see if you have the latest software? Cause I do that and it says that I already have the latest version.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marescallus:
I tried updating manually but it didn't work. I guess I should include that I tried deleting the superuser files from /system/bin/su and /system/xbin/su. I deleted the one in the xbin because there wasn't one in the bin. It's still messed up.

[Motorola Photon 4G] slick69:
I rooted and deblurred my Photon, and now I'm happily running ADW Launcher with an ICS theme. Now, is there a way to change the lockscreen as well? I'd love to be able to access the camera directly from the lockscreen.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FC809:
Use go locker.
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Theres also widget locker, and MANY others. search around or look on play store youll find many choices
[Motorola Photon 4G] slick69:
I downloaded Go Locker and it made me download Go Launcher EX as well. Oh well, I was gonna try it anyway. It looks good so far.
[Motorola Photon 4G] tony442:
You could always test each and see which is the most functional for you...you can also try locked roms such as rocko and imperial found in the development section
[Motorola Photon 4G] fendergrab:
The most reliable one I've found is MiLocker, it has alot of options too.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
I've come to the determination that WidgetLocker is the cheapest, most configurable lock screen.

GO Locker and Magic Locker are both free to install, but each theme can only be configured a little bit. Free ones are rare and limited, and you're asked to pay at every turn. It's really annoying. I scored WL for 99¢ on sale, but even for the full price of $2.99, it's worth it to pay once and never be bothered again.

Also, you can configure your launch screen pretty much any way you like. There are some cool unlock gimmicks I've seen other launchers use, and I wish WL would add some of them, but the fact that you can make your own lock screen is pretty cool. I wish I could configure one up and save it, and repeat, and have a gallery of lock screens I've made, like the others have, but I'm fine just evolving the one as I see fit.

WL doesn't work on its own, and I don't suppose any of them do. You have to download an app called "No Lock" to get rid of the stock lock screen.

And none of these are valid options if you want security. For that, you have to disable your custom lock screen and use the system one.
[Motorola Photon 4G] fendergrab:
Actually MiLocker is totally free, doesn't ask for donations and after reboot the stock lock screen shows up once then it's just MiLocker. The only down side is many of the themes use Asia characters in them.
[Motorola Photon 4G] slick69:
Is it compatible with the stock ROM, or MIUI only? I had a good time customizing the lockscreen and such when I ran MIUI on my EVO. :o
[Motorola Photon 4G] fendergrab:
Yup, most current stock Blur Rom.
