Well, the telephone wouldn't even ring (it would vibrate), so something is wrong... I see a re-install in my future... :(

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mandroid717:
you may want to unlock the bootloader first.

having the bootloader unlocked allows you to get root access which then allows you to do anything with your phone as far as software goes. Roms, kernels, removing bloat root only apps.......etc

Can anyone help me, when I flashed the prada rom wifi fixed I just lost root access, even though Super user is already preset.

I also cannot access recovery mode through the G button. Anyone who have any idea with this?
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
not accessing recovery through g-button dosen't mean u lost root access:rolleyes::eek::eek:

am using the totally 100% unmodded stock (albiet the extended power menu). U CAN PRESS THE POWER MENU AND CHOOSE "REOCVERY":p.!!!?????!!!!....also, go to terminal emulator and type "reboot recovery".

I WONDER WHY U NEED THE G-RECOVERY (unless u have a fetish for it ;) )..lolz

hope i helped. :)
[LG Optimus Black] denclaud:
No bro youre not getting my point. I mean there's really no root access, I've tried using CWM to reboot to recovery but it doesn't allow me, also in the wifi fixed version it doesn't have any recovery in the power menu. It's like i have a non rooted rom here you get my point??? I hope you can help me. Every app that needs root access cannot be used.

I think it's way too early to even consider what the best ICS ROM is out there. I mean, it's only been out a couple of weeks for the sgs2.

I would say wait maybe 2-3 months and then there might be a better answer for you.

Right now at this stage of SGSII ICS development, the core thing is stability on fundamental functions. Phone calls, texting, and network connection. I've only tried the Perfection ROM, and it has issues with the connection part, but not enough for me to change out.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smmiller506:
I know this idea has been tossed around quite a bit, but I had an idea...

Scenario - You have a rooted Android phone (Froyo/Gingerbread) with a strong PIN or password lockscreen, not a pattern. You also have a protection app that you can use remotely to sound an alarm, track, or wipe the data.

Problem is, knowing what I currently know now, if I was a thief, I would immediately pull the battery until I got to a safe place. That renders the protection app useless until the phone is turned on. But all of that is pointless if I know how to start the bootloader and get to the recovery. Once in recovery, I can backup all of the info that is on the phone for investigation later, I can wipe the phone with a new ROM, rendering ALL protection apps useless, and I can swap out the ESN.

Now, if I was the victim, my first priority is data protection. If I had a protection app, I would naturally enable it (more about that later), and I would report the phone stolen to my wireless provider.

So, my question is, can we secure the bootloader and/or the recovery? I know that recoveries can be touch-based, which means that we can have a strong password that is also easy to enter. The bootloader would be a problem though, since we can only use hard key buttons. However, we never use the bootloader except to flash recoveries, or to enter the recovery if we are away from a computer. So, my idea is, since we never have to use the bootloader, make it accessible only if the password is entered via an ADB shell? Once the bootloader is up and running, it easily processes commands from ADB, so let's password protect it that way. And to prevent brute-forcing, after 3 failed attempts, the phone bricks itself. The phone is reported stolen anyways, so you don't care about it, but this is a damn good F.U. to the thief. Also, it does prevent any backups from being done that he can access. Backups with personal info on them shouldn't be on the SD card, so if he gets that, who cares, SD cards are $10.

Thoughts?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JokerAce:
Back ups can get quite big in size, and using internal memory to store them is not very wise. Good perspective on the idea.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] over2land:
I think we've agreed that the screen is the biggest battery draw on this phone.

I am on the stock ROM, and my screen lights up whenever anything happens on the phone. Any notifications light the screen up. Email/text/etc screen comes on to display the notification in addition to the sound.

Is there a way to keep the sound, and notification in the status bar, but keep the screen from lighting up?

I get a ton of emails M-F not to mention text messages and I don't need the screen firing up every time I get one. Hearing it is good, but I'm sure I'd save battery with the screen forced to stay off. Incremental savings? Maybe. But every little bit, right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] docfreed:

I want a volunteer with a quad core device to run our small app, and send us 3 screenshots of his scores...

We are trying to test multicore/single phones, with multithreaded/single apps..

What do you have to do?

1) Pick up the Matrix benchmark from the "Choose Benchmark" list.

2) Then, choose as num of threads to "2", and "tick" the 3rd option, to run the benchmark.

3) After that, take a screenshot!

..) Repeat process with 4, 8 threads!

If you want to helps us more you can also try the Graphic Bench 1 and Graphic Bench 2.

(you dont need to choose threads num for those! We are checking only frames per second that your Tegra3 can get!)

So, we need 3 or 5 screenshots...

Thank you very much guys! You have a wonderfull phone! :D :)

**If you use google+ and instant upload, you can automatically upload your screenshots to G+, and share them with me. You can find my account in about me section in here!

NOTE**: its NOT implemented with an Async Task! So android may thinks several times, that application "doesnt respont"!

Please choose all times wait! Also other benchmarks, where ported wrong, so we dont want them, except the matrix, and the graphic benchs!

Thanks again!!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingofthebraves:
I noticed that the grays on my screen sometimes turn to violet for no reason at all? Does this happen to you guys as well? My speakers are also barely audible, I had an SGS2 and the loud speakers were very loud, are there mods or roms that address this issue that give them a little boost?

Overall an excellent phone, easily the best performing phone I have had.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grilledbacon32:
The grays on my screen have never ever turned violet, that seems a bit weird. The speakers I mine are also pretty good, I would maybe take it back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingofthebraves:
I noticed this when I first got my phone and my battery was almost empty (3% or less). If I power on my screen the grays would be fine but after I turn it off and on again it would turn violet. I updated to 4.0.4 and so far I have not been able to replicate the issue.

My loudspeakers are just extremely soft. I can barely hear anything while watching a movie, youtube or listening to music with the loudspeakers. Are you sure this is not normal?? Is there any way for me to test this with an app or something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deekayy:
Download Volume+ from the Google play market. You can definitely see a huge difference when tweaking the speaker volume. As for the screen turning violet, it could be a screen defect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingofthebraves:
Downloaded the free one and it worked perfectly. Does this app affect the headphones as well?

Another quirk I found with my GN is that every time something crashes or an error occurs the phone automatically asks me to send an email to report. Is this normal? Is there any way to turn this off? Do custom roms take out this nuisance?

Here is the email:

Yakju-user 4.0.4 imm761 330937

release-keys

(sent from bugmailer)

and it attached a text file and a screenshot

*never mind it seems that it's a bug report generated by pressing down the volume up down adn power button at the same time

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amonfog:
I would go back to the store to get a new one.. the screen is not supposed to be purple. as for the volume+ app.. I'm a bit frightened by it. Okay the speaker is kinda soft when I'm being called, but the speakers were designed and calibrated for those volumes.

overriding that an break things...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingofthebraves:
Ok I finally got to reproduce the issue. If I open my messaging app on a place with low light condition or at night time (display brightness automatically goes down), the top gray bar which has the contact name number call sign and attach sign turns violet but strangely enough the lower gray bar which holds the new message icon has a lighter shade and displays the color correctly.

If I revert to settings and disable auto brightness and max it out and go back to messaging it becomes gray again. I also tried it on auto brightness on a normally lit room and it's fine. Anyone else with the same issue?

I've used the SGS before and remember that white's on my screen would be a little more grayish/yellowish. This must be an issue caused by pentile displays. I was beginning to wonder if it was my eyesight that was failing me lol!

Does this happen to your units as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] keplenk:
I use the Seraphim First Flight by the Collective (best ROM ever, reprezent!) and it uses Apex launcher.

I noticed that you can replace the dock icons so I just need to find the best place to find icon images. What resolution should I pick and what extension? (jpg, png?)

+ 1 question

I use the dedicated search button all the time (which launches the google search, I believe) but unfortunately, you have to remember the exact name of the app in order to do a search for it to show on the list.

Example: Let us say I will search for "Tapatalk"

When I hit the search button and type Tapa .. it will already show up Tapatalk on the result list.

However, when I typed "talk" it will not show it. So it means that you have to know/remember the first letters of the word in order to have good list result.

Is there a plugin or setting in search that would make searching smarter?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
If you like free, minimalist icons that you can customize to any color, try the MetroStation icon pack in the market. The icons look like this:

Until I started using those, I was using icon packs from Sonny Sekhon, just search his name in the market. they cost a buck I think for each theme you want, but they look really nice and include like 560 or so icons with each theme, do most common apps are all included. Here is a screen shot with a few examples of the three packs of his that I have bought:

I don't know of anything to solve your second problem though.

Edit: forgot to say how to use MetroStation icons. You have to open their app, select the icon you want to use, them out will bring up a color picker. Select the color you want, them save it. Then go about switching the icon of the app you want by long pressing, then releasing, then hit edit, then click on the icon in the popup, then select gallery, then find the folder with the icons in them. Drag the size out fully and hit save. Every time you open metrostation again it will save your previous color, which makes it easy to make all of your icons the same color.

Edit 2: Bored, so I made a picture guide. Haha:

In metro station, find your icon

Pick the color, after selecting the color it will save and exit out of metro station

Then long press on the icon you want to change to bring up this menu

After selecting gallery and finding and selecting the icon you saved, drag out the resizing box fully

There you go!
