Hi, you probably did not notice my reply because I did not use quote: :D

Hi safariking,

I have some experience flashing ICS roms on my Galaxy S, I even started out from scratch when the phone was running an early version of GB. I got it rooted (with a lot of help of reading) however I'm not really sure how to proceed with your instructions on updating my Qware Pro 2 to your custom rom.

First of all, I'm failing to even navigate to the zip file while in normal recovery, I've even tried to rename the file to update.zip...

Could it be that it cannot work when the tablet is not rooted?

I tried to root it a while ago, using Gingerbreak, but somehow that is not compatible with the tablet.

You'd think it easy to find out how to root the device, but I'm kind of ashamed to have to say I'm stuck here...

Can you please give me some hints or links to a website where I can read more about acquiring root access on a Pro 2?

Thanks in advance.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MiguelM600:
It works

Finally got it working.

After I put the zip files on the external SD card I was able to navigate to it and flash CWM and after that your custom rom V2 which is an improvement regarding speed and battery life.

Sofar I'm very happy, thanks!

I've also tried CyanogenMod 7 via fun_'s thread, but neighter the Yarvik rom (touchscreen does not work) nore the Roverpad rom (HD film playback does not work) is a success.

I'm going to try your V1, to see if it makes any difference...

Cheers...

Hi,

I just flashed my pro 2 with this rom and it works OK (only the screen-orientation sensor is behaving strange).

I also wanted to try the stock-rom update from the qware website. I tried the flashprg that came with it but i think buy usinge the cwm recovery i can't use this prg anymore. Do you have a original recovery lying around? (or otherwise have a solution for flashing the original stock-rom). If so i will be thankfull!

Bob.

For wich version is this update ???

Will it work 100% on the Qware Tablet PC Pro2 10" ?? (The early version of the QW TB-1010)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Alvarado:
My coworker has the Galaxy S II and he's flashed his phone he was able unlock the hotspot that already came with his phone. I was wondering if anyone has been able to do the same for the MoPho and if so could anyone possibly give me the link for this software.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FC809:
You have to root.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Alvarado:
Well I do have root.I need a wifi tether that isn't running in ad-hoc mode but infrastructure and the only one I know to do that would be the phone's own hotspot already installed but need to be unlocked
[Motorola Photon 4G] FC809:
That's weird cause for some reason the phone's own hotspot won't work for me at times, but the app does. Sorry I can't help then.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Fugitive87:
Thats because the hot spot on the phone is ties in with sprint, you want wifi tether, just google it, and a custom kernel

Hi All.. i found this gamepad for iphone ..do we really have something like this for galaxy too????...please share your comments and pictures on this if you are really looking for one...:)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Cptnodegard:
That one works on Android too. So does a lot of others, including Wii controllers, Xbox controllers, PS3 controllers, etc.

I use an Xbox360 controller on my Galaxy Tab, and a Phonejoy controller (which is made for Android) on my S II. Use it with a DIY S II holder I made for it:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] beaver2233:
that is an 'icontrolpad' and can be used for our sgs2 :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] adik82:
Mate...which control pad you are talking about..the one i uploaded ?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] beaver2233:
yeah your one (first post) - here's a link.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] gatt088:
yes i know this, i owned this one some months ago, and let me say: DON'T BUY IT

it's only cheap plastik. yes, there is an adapter for quite all phone models, but it's very unconfortable, buy a psp if you want to play seriously on the road.

if you are only a casual gamer, virtual touch controls are enough, and on the beautifull touch screen of gs2 it's better than crappy physical controls.

listen to me: for casual gaming use touch controls on your phone, for REAL GAMING there are pc-ps3-xbox-wii, in the middle psp-nds (for kids)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Houselegend:
Anyone tested OnLive controler ???
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Goodix33:
It looks like great to use because the phone is attached to the joypad but i think it is quitte uggly.

@Cptnodegard : How do you do to use your Xbox360 pad with android?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Cptnodegard:
I use the PC wireless adapter plugged into my Gaalxy Tab 7.0 Plus via USB. USB/BT Joystick Center for the setup, and through root and the joystick2touch setup it gives compatibility with pretty much any game that has touch buttons.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] adik82:
How do you do it mate ? Can you please explain this step by step ?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Cptnodegard:
This is sort of the thing that you shouldn't be doing if you can't read your way to how to do it on yourself, simply because there are so many different ways it can not work, but ok. You install USB/BT Joystick Center, and if you have root, the joy2touch addon. You make sure you've enabled USB/BT's USBjoyIME fake keyboard in input settings of your device, start the app, and plug in your x360 wireless adapter via USB. You give it permission to use the USB input, swithc to the USBjoyIME "keyboard", turn on the xbox controller, pair it the way you pair those controllers, select the controller in the app. Test that buttons show up, and that's it for non-root setup. You then program buttons normally in whatever app you use. If you have root, you can start the touch addon from within the main app, and when in-game, hold 4 fingers on the screen to enter touch edit mode. You then press a button and click on the screen where you want it to go. That programs it to send the device fake touchscreen input data when you press the button

Note that I do this on a Galaxy tab, not the S II. I just mentioned it in passing and actually use a phonejoy on my s ii
[Galaxy S II Accessories] adik82:
Thanks mate ..i am gonna try this once i am free.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] 22n22:
nice
[Galaxy S II Accessories] franki_667:
Have you guys tried the sixaxis app with a ps3 controller? It lets you setup 'touch profiles' where you can map the buttons to anywhere on your screen. You can virtually play any game with it, but works the best with emulators.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] adik82:
Does anyone know yet that which is the most sucessful gamepad for android till now.??
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Cptnodegard:
That question suggests you're not really aware of how game controllers function on Android...which is perfectly understandable. I'm working on a guide to game controllers on Android that will be done tomorrow or so, it should help clear up a few things
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Squishie:
I have the iControlPad (OP's post) and I can say that it works beautifully with my S2.

I had to drill a hole in the retainer clip in order to make it hold my phone+case (It will hold a caseless i9100 without issue otherwise), but other than that it is a wonderful piece of hardware. Makes playing the Kairosoft games a breeze!

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnxg1:
Rooted- locked bootloader-

I was trying to flash this rom, when it failed and I hadn't really noticed.

So my system was formatted and I booted from recovery.

Since then my phone will endlessly show sony ericsson logo and reboot, back to the logo, and reboot again.

I tried booting into recovery by pressing and releasing the volume down button, but it didn't work.

I recently flashed T.E.A.M rom so I'm not sure whether the hardware method to boot into recovery changed.

I've also tried to install the firmware from pc companion but it doesn't work because the phone doesn't mount properly because it keeps turning off and on.

EDIT: Installed new firmware from PC Companion. I Had to first connect it while it was on, PCC would recognise it in those couple of seconds.

Later on, I had to take the battery out and put it back in. The phone would now stay off, until I held the back button and connected to the pc. Then the installation was succesfully run.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] diabolicalangle:
Hey guys,

My friend had my phone over the weekend, and he went and accidentally submerged it for (10 seconds) and took it out immediately. Everything seemed to work fine, so he kept on using it and gave it to me (w/o telling me) and I used it till it died (the battery was also <5 percent, so i'm not sure if something shorted or the batt died).

Either way, I've read up a bit on this forum and elsewhere and this is going to be my plan of action. If anything is wrong with it, or if I should do step 2 before step 1 or anything of that nature, please tell me:

1) Remove battery, sim card, ext-sd and let it sit in rice for 3 days. See if it works, if not step 2.

2) Get some 90% alcohol and soak phone after removing sim card, ext-sd and battery. Preheat oven to 125 degrees F and let it sit in there for 6 hours. Let it cool, open it up, clean with alcohol and a swab. See if it works, if not step 3.

3) Hopefully step 2 will have turned the water damage indicators from red to white --> Go to att service center, get it replaced.

I had some questions about the steps above:

Step 1:

i) Do I also put the sim card ext-sd and battery in the rice (separately)>

Step 2:

i) Does it matter what type of 90% alcohol? Does it have to be isopropyl, methanol or cleaning alcohol?

ii) Do i also soak the battery and cook it also?

iii) Do i take the phone apart and soak and dry individually or keep the phone intact?

General Question:

Does dissassembly of the phone void the warranty?

Thanks for the feedback guys and hope it never happens to you!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Edgarhighman:
Is that really a good idea? Submerging the phone in alcohol then cooking it does what?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] diabolicalangle:
Not sure, but this is the reasoning explained in an older thread on this forum:

So from what I understand, the alcohol displaces the water out of the phone, and the oven heats up and makes everything evaporate. In this process, the humidot indicators also go from red --> white (allowing me to use the warranty)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
I am only commenting on the alcohol, and I'm not condoning you cheating the company. I have never had to do this, so only speaking my thoughts. The alcohol would be isopropal, although I don't think it would matter if you used one of the other types. However, 90% isopropal alcohol contains 10% water, and I've never understood using it to submerge electronics equipment. You can buy 99% isopropal alcohol at most drug stores, even at Walmart, although you will most likely have to special order it at the pharmacy. It is very nearly pure alcohol, with usually less than 1% contaminants and water.

I build electronic equipment, and the alcohol is one method of cleaning the flux from the board after parts are soldered on. 90% alcohol does not work effectively for this purpose because of the water.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] diabolicalangle:
Thanks for the reply!

Yea, I really don't hope that it comes to that stage.. Hoping the rice trick or the alcohol + baking it out will remove all the water from there. I think ill try and clean the inside with alcohol and a swab after i bake it, and see if it turns on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Winklie:
Cook the rice on medium for 20 minutes, add the alcohol and phone to the mixture, let simmer for another 20 minutes, season with ginger and soy sauce for a delicious side dish! Try adding Bacon™ for more flavor......

Quick update question... does disassembly of the phone void the warranty?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karth500:
I dropped my phone down the toilet a few months ago. Thought I was done for, but I immediately took the phone out and got the battery out as fast as I could. After that I took apart the phone (our phone is actually really easy to disassemble) and blow dried it at medium heat setting for like an hour. Then I cleaned it with alcohol swabs on the inside and then blow dried it some more. Seemed pretty dry at this point. Put it all back together and haven't had any trouble since. The moisture strips are pink, but you can buy replacement strips online and just swap them out if it comes to that. Our phone is surprisingly resilient to water damage. there is a video online of a guy holding the phone under a faucet for a good ten minutes before things start to break.

Hey guys,

I would like to start to develop for this phone even without a phone (but I hope this fact is changing soon ^^ I saved 200euro by myselfe to buy a phone maybe you can help me with the rest :P).

Doesn´t matter here´s a flashable zip (untested because of the no device point) that should work and includes the following tweaks. Download it and flash it through CWM. I played abit with your device´s files :D Detailed explanation of what is included below. Of course other Devs can use this in their Roms without asking.

Please report Bugs if you´ve found any!

GPS Boost (Credits to Crescendo Xenomorph for your brilliant idea, I played a bit with the values that are in the file you found):

To come to a better GPS and faster capture of location I edited /system/etc/sirfgps.conf

If you change EMC_ENABLE, SENSOR_AIDING and FREQUENCY_AIDING to 1 there will be a big improvement but also more battery consume when you use GPS. (Of course already done in the .zip).

Faster Boot:

To enable a faster boot I edited the script /system/etc/init.goldfish.sh

You have to make sure that setprop debug.sf.nobootanimation 1 will be done in every case, you will now boot very faster. (Also done in the .zip).

Higher IdleTimeout (Bluetooth):

It´s not really a Tweak I just increst the IdleTimeout time because I always use it at this level, it seems more logical to me. Edited in /system/etc/bluetooth/input.conf

Longer DiscoverableTimeout (Bluetooth):

When I want to transfer files via bluetooth I always anger about the low time the phone is by default in a discoveryable mode (so that your device can be seen by other devices). So I also cahnged this from 180 to 300

You can find the lines in /system/etc/bluetooth/main.conf

Set PairableTimeout (Bluetooth):

Samsung invented the DiscoverableTimeout but doesn´t use the pairablemodeTimeout to save battery! Why?

So I set a PairableTimeout at 1000 by default. You can find the lines in /system/etc/bluetooth/main.conf

If you have any problem feel free to post your question below. I will add some other tweaks when I found some new ;) If you like my work, please thank, may consieder a donation and line my facebook page. Thanks! Happy flashing :)
