Searching would have told you the answer to your question. But I am in a good mood so Ill answer you. Unless they have the IMEI in their system then no it wont show up as a smart phone, but if they do then they will see it and switch you. As long as it is unlocked from another carrier then odds are they wont have it in their system. They have not started sharing IMEIs yet.

I still have s-on and htc-dev unlock

After that I installed Cleanrom ics and used the old firmware patch so I didn't have to update to the leaked firmware

Can I install Cleanrom gbe the normal way when coming from ics, since I still have gingerbread firmware or did ics do something to the htc-dev unlock, I've read something about this but it wasn't really clear

I know I need to do s-off eventually but I just want to learn more about this phone before I attempt it, only had it 2 days

Yep. Just normal way. I do it all the time

My phone is acting as if it is charging even when it is not. It will say charging with no usb plugged in. A friend of mine also had this happen to her phone on a epic 4g touch. Although i have a hard time believing it is because it happened even when the phone was turned off. It showed the green battery as if it was charging.

Anyone else have this problem or seen this on these phones?

So just now gallary and videos app stopped finding files on my sd card but when I use a file explorer everything is there? I tried uninstalling and installing the gallary app again but that didn't help. Has anyone ever had this issue? I'm trying to dogde reflashing my rom... it seems the problem is media scanner doesn't run because when I rebooted my phone it didn't show up at first like it always does.
[Epic 4G General] thomasskull666:
Try using an app like QuickPic and see if they show up. If they don't, make sure the folders containing you media aren't hidden (have a "." at the beginning of the folder name). Also check to make sure somehow there wasn't a .nomedia file placed in there somewhere.

If none of those work, time to reflash.
[Epic 4G General] lilajrestnom:
I haven't tried it but believe that QuickPic would work because the stock video app doesn't find any files but mobo player still works normally. I'm just having problems with media scanner not running. Any app which I could refresh or rescan from within the app finds all my stuff but any app that depends on media scanner doesn't find anything. Idk why media scanner won't run though. Its not that big of a problem but I may have to reflash.

Thanks though =).
[Epic 4G General] lilajrestnom:
Is there a system app that has to do with media scanner? Because I believe I may have uninstalled it or replaced it with an older version that isn't working anymore. I was working on a port of the Epic Dark Horse theme and I didn't pay that much attention to what are the app files already in it. It may have had an older media scanner app that doesn't work on my phone now when I flashed it. That's like the only thing I can possibly think of that messed up media scanner. Is there such an app?

Hello everyone, just got my skyrocket gs2 (from ios4s) and longstory short,

i was told (by att rep) this phone did ICS....

so now i know it doest for now.......so i decided to root(ok so far) and

all that jazz......

im up to the point where i drop in the rom on extcard to install.

The problem im having is that the ROM im trying to run is

ICS_SMOOTHIE

and its not working properly. When i install (about 5 tries already) all goes good till reboot. I reboot, phone "sammy text" appears 3-6 xs, then eventually i get the ICS intro with all the colors and 1sec after it appears, it freezes and theres like a "Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" sound like a turbine engine like if phone was gonna blow up.

My ? is, whats going wrong? i followed the guide to the letter and did every step(as far as clearin cache etc) multiple times.

if this rom is bad (i also downloaded twice) then are there more ICS roms

out there that r good?

Thanks in advanced.

The step above in your post: You should not skip that step if you are coming from Gingerbread.

You flash the leaked ICS modem first thing.

Then you wipe data etc.......although the modem is onboard the ROM.

[General Questions and Answers] Tomtomyoshi:
Hello all, just a quick question and hopefully a quick answer. Ran my avast boot scanner and most of the viruses (or infected files) have came from my tools I have used for flashing mine and friends phones. Common things such as OneClick and "rageagainstthecage-arm-5.bin....", Gingerbreak, PsNeuter, Zergrush, and a few other stuff. Only OneClick I recognize and have moved it to my virus chest. Most of the status' say "PUP: ELF:Looter (or Androot)-C [PUP]. Im wondering if this is something similar to torrenting where avast will pick up a false positive for these things or should I be concerned with some of the files that I am downloading from on XDA?

Any information on this will greatly help me and ease my tension on flashing through some of the programs that I have been directed to from this site. I apologize in advance if this should be something that I should be asking in a different forum, and feel free to move it to another location if possible. Thanks in advance.

I think that anything that can negatively affect the operation of your phones operating system well show up as a warning. It's not a false positive, it is a program that can mess up your phone, you just have control over that program.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pro95accord:
Hey guys new to the nexus world. This is the first nexus phone I'm used to the galaxy series.

OK so I bought my nexus from a friend who was on bell. I'm with telus and first thing I noticed is it doesn't say 4g on it just H I don't know if thats normal another thing is that my data speeds went from 7-10mbps with galaxy s2x (sgh-t989d) to less than 1 with nexus? Radio related issue?

Is the 4g icon a carrier related issue as it is with the galaxy s2 phones. Also are there any carrier based firmware like galaxy or is it all the same with all nexus phones

Thanks in advance guys

:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GibMcFragger:
The Nexus isn't a 4G phone, its HSPA+...which is why is shows "H+" instead of "4G".

As for your speeds, I get between about 5-8mbps (on average) on Rogers with mine. I used to be on Bell and always got crap speeds on their network with any phone I owned. That's one of the reasons I ditched them.

Swyped from my Cobalt Liquid GNex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pro95accord:
Thanks I figured as much with the 4G icon even thought telus says that it is a 4G phone that supports up to 14mbps. I'm guessing the 4G icons for the LTE version in the US.

Are there any dialer codes that let you select band? besides *#*#4636#*#* or maybe a telus radio?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GibMcFragger:
Not really, but its easy enough to flash a new radio (assuming you are rooted and have CWM or ADB knowledge).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ny2k1012:
My screen registers a touch from my S Pen when it is about a half inch away from the screen. This makes it difficult to take a note or to even just use the pen. From my understanding it is because the white tip is stuck in a little bit. I tried to contact Samsung and the only thing they told me to do was a factory reset or take it to an AT&T store. The problem is I go to school in Iowa and the closest AT&T store is 60 miles away. Any suggestions on fixing the S Pen?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] demigodchewtoy:
You are correct in thinking the stylus tip is pushed in too far to create an "always on" effect. It is possible the stylus is simply defective, but there's one way to find out.

A lot of styluses come with a tool for removing and/or replacing the tip, as a stylus tip generally wears out after several years.

WHAT TO DO: Take a pair of tweezers and gently clamp down on the nub where it meets the stylus pen, then try to pull it out a little. DO NOT GRAB OR CLAMP THE NUB FROM THE TIP OR OTHERWISE SQUEEZE THE VERY TIP or you could misshape the tip and then it could scratch your screen over time. All you need to do is pull the nub out a little without accidentally compromising the tip that meets the screen.

After you pull the tip out a little (or all the way), push in gently but firm with your fingers to re-seat the nub.

It is known and a fact that the echo is a software issue not hardware, due to the fact of ics roms are a port from the skyrocket, with no kernel source nor tmob ics modem the issue will persist unless devs find a tweak to fix it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] K3NN3TH_K:
The point in this thread.

I assumed because the echo went away after using the above described method, that it was a software issue. The reason I am posting this is because there are some very intelligent people on this forum and I know that someone can apply this to future roms to fix the echo problem.

The point in this thread is to prove that it is a software issue and get some developers to take it serious and apply whatever parts are needed to make this damn echo go away.

Thank you!

I agree, I appreciate all the work the devs do and they are doing a great job, but it seems that many people have the ICS echo issue. Is there any way we can make this one of the top problems to solve? And is there anything that those of us that are having this problem can do to aid in fixing it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suprakarma:
With all respect to our developers, it seems that some are more concerned about looks, theming extra features like battery icons, toggles etc, when i hardly see the effort of fixing the real issues, maybe it sounds easy as i say it and have no right to address it this way since am not a developer, but i dont care about tuch jizz aosp as long as the rom is fully functional or at least close to i, meaning, no echo, no shut or reboot issue, fix permissions, gps and signal, video rec and play, Bluetooth, sms and contacts, thats more important than ****s, giggles and unicorns.

If you still have the zip file from your rom, you can copy the original files from it to your phone.

ive searched thru these forums and to no avail nothing found. the issue i keep having with my wifes sk4g, on a custom rom for ex : generic ginger the market will suddenly just disapear. like if it wasnt even on the phone and this has happened on other roms as well. and the only fix is to constanly reflash but this gets a tad bit annoying . anyone else out there experience this and have a possible fix to this ??? thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Roundtableprez:
I think what your experiencing is market has updated. It is now known as playstore and has a new icon. I've never heard of market just deleting itself.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JonathanBarca10:
its this. i was freaking out when it happened haha

if you dont see the Play Store, then reset the phone and it should pop up. but the Android Market app and its icon are gone.

my wifes phone will randomly freeze and have to battery pull and when rebooted the market is gone the app icon is replace with a lil green and white tab lookin icon that says android and when attemped to open it says application not installed
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
Have you tried Fix permissions from CWM Recovery?

If so, and it's still not fixed...you need to backup your SDcard, format it, let it reinstall itself once on Android and bam.

IF STILL NOTHING, you may need to go a step further...ODIN to KJ2, clear cache partition and dalvik cache, fix permissions (just to be safe), check your mounts, then flash. Enable Wi-Fi on Default so the ROM can download the update from Android Market to Google Play after your first reboot. IF THERE'S STILL AN ISSUE AFTER THIS, sorry it has me stumped.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] AFAinHD:
Ok let's get this straight.

This happened to everyone with the market first switched to Google Play, the icon on your homescreen will change to that because the system can no longer find the application Market.apk, but in your app drawer the play store will be there. Just move the play store to a shortcut on your homescreen. The reason that it comes back when u reflash is because you are just reflashing the old, unupdated market, then when you open it again it will delete the Market.apk and install the play store.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] bleedingthru:
No that's not the issue. The problem is sometimes her phone will freeze and when restarted market is completely gone has nothing to do with transition to play store just the market totally removes it self
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
I have had apps dissappear from the phone, leaving only a generic green android icon in it's place. I am not sure why this happens, but it usually seems to be after an abnormal reboot. I was thinking it could have something to do with the the SK's seemingly sloppy implementation of putting apps on the sdcard, but the market app is probably stored on the phone, so I dunno.

anyway, were you able to get it back?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] bleedingthru:
I did fix permisions in cwm and I think that worked what I think helped was I reinstalled market after it disapeared and yes she got that generic green icon in place of the market and used root explorer to reinstall market apk and fingers crossed so far so good
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JiN1337:
