i am using infintium but there r two main problems abotu it , besides them i luv the rom

1) the music sometimes isnt getting detected

2) i cant use internet tethering cause it gives me limited internet access

any fixes for that?

slim ics v3.5 is the best. battery life is awesome too..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
Is what im following. I have the RocketRom files extracted into the internal SD card /external_sd/firmware folder and one on the external SD card with the folder firmware. The rocketRom zip had META-INF - system - modem.bin - zImage. But when i click on Flash stock firmware it says it cant find anything. Did i do something wrong? Or actually im not sure what im doing wrong.

Thanks for any help!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matius44:
Stock firmware is always .tar files, Rocket ROM is .zip file..

Put the whole Rocket ROM .zip folder in your sd card (do not unzip it), open Mobile Odin and choose flash update zip and then choose RocketRom.zip

EDIT: or you can just put the zip in your sd card, reboot into recovery, choose install zip from sd card and then reboot system
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
Thanks i tried that. But when it rebooted everything looked the same. Is that what the rocketrom looks like?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
but if i use recovery wont it increase my counter?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matius44:
No, recovery and mobile odin will not increase your flash counter

Flash counter will increase only if you flash custom firmware using PC Odin
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matius44:
Rocket ROM is stock-like custom ROM so yes it will look the same

Go to Settings > about phone and check
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
Thank you so much for your help.. The official CF posts for flashing ROMs are so confusing and such. Thanks for clearing it out for me :)+1
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
I just did it via recovery mode, the animation starts then goes to a black screen. Is it rebuilding its cache?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matius44:
Did the flash went successfully?

Try to reboot couple of times, that might help..

If not, reboot to recovery, do cache and dalvik wipe..

If not, try to reboot into recovery and do factory reset/data wipe/cache/dalvik wipe and reboot..you will lose your data this way
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
It didnt say any errors when installing so it shouldve of went fine.

Im doing a cache wipe. and it just went to a black screen after "calling all speed demons"

Ill doo a factory wipe then and get back to you. Thanks for your help so far!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
I re did the whole process this time. And it still goes black after "calling all speed demons". Should i wait during this time? In the s2 forums i read about it going like this because it is building cache or something along those lines.

I judt reread the whole RM thread. I didnt read the "flash 22 first" bit. Ill do that and hope it works that time ><!

Hello there new guy here, and XDA noob :P

For a while now, about 2 years i have been stuck on a maximum of 250 kbps. Previously i had a HTC Desire Rooted and with custom rom Redux. I could never get above 250 kbps on 3g.

Now i have a HTC One X, and yet im still getting the same speeds, which kinda rules out any hardware bottlenecks. I can run on both T-Mobile and Orange Uk (because they merged). My brother owns a HTC Sensation and runs on the exact same carrier as i do and uses the same mast and manages to gain over 500kbps.. HOW?!

I tried ringing orange and asking if there was any limitations and they said no, they even put me through to the best tech service they had :l. Any ideas guys? I would be very rgateful if you could give me any insight. :) thanks
[Networking] chrisrotolo:
need more info. this doesnt sound right at all. where do you live? ever checked your distance to nearest cell tower? do you know of anyone else getting better speeds on the same network?

do you have proper network selected in settings? correct APN?

perhaps network build.prop tweaks? sometimes they help other times they can hurt..

also *#*#INFO#*#* select phone information and radio band.

could also have a bad SIM card if it is old.
[Networking] Daydream605:
I live in the UK, Around Birmingham and Coventry. I'm usually always on full signal and iv'e even been as close as the "Danger Radiation" sign lol My brother typically gets over 500 kbps and is pretty consistant... lucky B... :l

Correct APN? I presume you mean Carrier? im with Orange and it all seems grand.. so i think anyways.

Build.prop, i wouldn't know where to start with that ,i presume make a backup and try flashing an update.zip, if any problems use restore?

Not quit sure what im looking for in Phone info, help me out :)?

And im sure it's not the sim card, it's the new micro sim that came with the phone :(!
[Networking] chrisrotolo:
APN = access point name

and you would only have access to your build.prop(properties) if you are rooted.

phone info; try entering this into the dialer : *#*#4636#*#*

select phone information (then you might need to press menu button) and choose radio band from there. You may also be able to change this in settings.

Is 500kbs the fastest speed you guys have seen? sounds very odd. I think I may have heard of this.. being too close to a tower causes terrible speeds, if it is fact the case, you may want to try connecting to the next closest tower. there should be some free apps around to view your cell tower info and possibly even change towers.

500kbs is not 3g.
[Networking] Daydream605:
Yeah it looks like all my APN settings and band is correct, if they weren't i wouldn't really be on a 3g signal what so ever. No other useful information is seen in info, Also, i have tried switching between carriers and tried the speed test on many many differen't towers. Im really stumped myself, and my phones rooted, but without RUU i can't install any Radio drivers can i?
[Networking] emuhack:
3G service usually does not get above 2mb which in reality is only 200kbs.. i ran a speed test on a buddy's iPhone and it was only 1.54mb which is only 150kbs.... So you are right in the mid grade of speed... Get a 4G cell... :)

:)
[Networking] Asovse1:
Those are horrible speeds for 3G at the least. Absolutely atrocious!

Have you tried consulting your carrier? Perhaps they could resolve the issue.
[Networking] Daydream605:
My brother has a HTC Sensation and is able to get 600 kb/s+ I hope your not confusing it with kbps :P! Sorry if i confused you :)!

And yeah i contacted them a while ago and they said everything was fine from their end :(!

I have a HTC ONE X, surely that's capable of H+, Something isn't right.
[Acer Iconia A500] spud357c:
In skimming the posts related to the ICS upgrade there appears to be quite a few different build numbers being quoted.

Let's see how many different ones there are:

Mine is ACER_AV041_A500_1.033.00_PA-CUS1
[Acer Iconia A500] Rusty!:
Acer_AV041_A500_1.031.00_WW_GEN1 - European version.
[Acer Iconia A500] japinder:
The official OTA is version 1.033 which was released just a few days ago in US.

Version 1.031 Worldwide/European 'I think' is a leak since it has been available since at least 31 March on one of the french sites.

I'm just 4 days old in Android tabs, so I could very well be wrong though. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Rusty!:
It was leaked, but it has also been received OTA as well, so I guess they deemed it OK for public consumption.
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
1.031.00 is also OTA for some.

1.033.00 got only 4 languages supported by acer , English , Portugées , Spanish and French.
[Acer Iconia A500] fblasot:
What about the new leak from vache ?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25613980
[Acer Iconia A500] Bloodflame:
That would be Acer_A500_7.014.16_041.206.01_COM_GEN1.zip

Not sure if it's one we've already seen before, or if it's brand new. Some of the HC 3.1 and 3.2 builds had strange 7.x version numbers. In any case, I'm downloading it now to take a peek at the build.prop to see exactly what this is. Be back soon.

Edit:

Yep, looks like a new leak! :D

Careful flashing though. Looks like there's a bootloader and recovery in the update.zip

The previous were WW_GEN1 and PA_CUS1:

- WW_GEN1 (WorldWide ??) wifi up tp ch 13, more languages

- PA_CUS1 (seems made for US and PAcific ??) wifi end at ch 11, and only 4 languages

[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
Hey this is a thread for all the Resurrection lovers out there to discuss what Kernel goes best with Resurrection ROM :)

I've tried several Kernels by myself but couldn't come to a conclusion which is better in which aspects.

So lets discuss openly the pros and cons of each Kernel :)

If you have tried any other kernel other than CM9 and Siyah please put your opinions as well.​
[Galaxy S II General] deckio007:
Nice post! I'd be interested to see the results from ppl as I just updated to latest 1.7 remix and this time have left the CM9 kernal. I did think about flashing siyah straight after 1.7 package but decided to give CM9 a trial first :D

Will report in a few days!
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
I'm a Siyah fan too but after reading few reviews considered to give a try with CM9 :) will see how it goes
[Galaxy S II General] Fenom186:
I'm currently using the stock CM9 with 1.7 and found it to feel pretty good so far, messed up a little yesterday when the phone froze while playing a video.

Before freezing the phone had 50% battery after removing the battery and restarting, the battery had dropped to 15% :confused:

I'm still a bit of a noob to all this so go easy :)

When flashing a new kernel, do I just put the zip on the card and flash?

Or do I need to wipe anything first?
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
This is my personal opinion, not trying to put anyone down.

Okay tried CM9 Remix kernel for few hours and already fedup :\

I see no better battery life compared to Siyah kernel, in fact CM9 Remix Kernel had lesser support than Siyah.

Lets see;

Siyah -

CWM touch recovery (and full support)

additional cpu governors (lulzactive,smartassV2,etc..)

Overclocking upto 1.6

support for BLN(Back light notifications)

CM9 Remix -

NO CWM touch recover and some of the CWM features are not available

NO additional CPU governors

NO overclocking

NO support for BLN

So for me CM9 Remix kernel isn't the one.

as i have tried Siyah kernel already im going to give Abyss or some other Kernel a try and will update on how it goes :)
[Galaxy S II General] quijote1:
This is a really difficult conversation because there are so many variables.

1) Kernels - each one has configurations so you need to mention what governor you are using and any other mods that you have done to the basic kernal config. Or if you are using it stock without changes you could state that.

2) Apps - all of us have different apps installed and some apps make demands on the system when it is supposed to be "sleeping". Dedicated battery enthusiasts use CPU Spy and Better Battery Stats to try to figure out what is eating the battery all the time. Then they freeze those apps until they are needed.

3) Usage - I'm retired, so I play with my phone a lot....spend an hour a day just reading XDA. I must turn it on at least 30 times between charges. Others have to work, so they put it in their pockets and leave it alone for a while. Some folks play 3D games which consume power like crazy. Using phone data eats more power than wifi. A black background on your screen eats less than a white background... and so on.

So this is not a simple conversation. The more you tell about your situation, the more others can see if it applies to them.

(PS - I´m not talking much about my setup because I'm still on RR 1.1 with Siyah 3.0.1+. I´m trying various governors to see which works best - currently on lutzactive. I'm usually down to around 45% at bedtime which is fine with me.....If I leave the phone alone and just use it as a phone, I can probably go 24 hours.
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
Siyah: Feature packed, lots of fluff, but very nice options as mentionned earlier.

CM9: Basic, VERY BASIC kernel. Gets the job done and most people sync their base with it.

I personally use CM9 with Siyah, works great.
[Galaxy S II General] Pio_28:
Yeaaa, I agree with You

Siyah Kernel works great with My S2
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
I totally agree with you.

I use my phone very often too. not to play games but to text, listen to music, and i leave the phone data connected always to use IM services.

I'm sure it must be same with any regular user.

I love to play around with my phone as in trying out new stuff on it :)

This time its the Kernels and OSs that im testing on :) currently checking Abyss Kernel and already noticed that the soft key lights should be turned on time to time by going to settings :\

will see how well it does in other aspects :)
[Galaxy S II General] quijote1:
Did you try Siyah with RR 1.7 before going to Abyss? What were your impressions of the usual kernels that you tried? Apparently 1.7 is working well for you?
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
I've been using Siyah with RR 1.2 and 1.5 and battery life came upto 8-10hrs

wanted to try a different kernel and chose CM9 Remix which was in the download section of the RR thread and it was an utter disappointment for ME (others might like it)

refer to my earlier post for results.

currently im testing Abyss and will update on how it goes tonight :)
[Galaxy S II General] meatlover:
which one is the best?
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
It depends on user. Im a heavy user and a need freak so CM9 Remix didnt do much good to me :) trying Abyss at the moment. Await for results
[Galaxy S II General] android_ex:
This is very useful and im waiting for updates :)
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
AbyssICS (2.6b)

Okay lets see how Abyss worked out for me.

After the utter dissatisfaction over CM9 Remix kernel Abyss was quite impressive with battery consumption.

there's always a BUT ;)

1. the softykey lights were never on even though i change settings, it stays on till the phone display sleeps and even of you turn the screen on again the lights never come back :\

2. Settings -> Storage always keeps force closing and you cant see the stuff in the external SD card even by using a file explorer (root explorer)

3. I didnt like the screen which comes saying some official italian bla bla when you restart the phone :D that got a very bad design :p

soooooooo im switching to Siyah-v3.2b4 after seeing its all new cool features and i found a great article on how to get the best out of the kernel

ill share it here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369817

[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
WHAT?:eek: 54hrs? NOWAY IN HELL

used any tweaks?
[Galaxy S II General] buzzboy:
No tweaks, but the screen on time suggests that the phone has been on standby most of the time, with no Data.

I always tend to have a fantastic battery performance too when I leave the phone on standby, with no Wifi or Data use.

I used the stock cm9 for a while on v1.7 RR and found the battery to last quite well, decided to try siyah 3.1.2 a couple of days ago and day by day it is getting better but not sure its as good as the cm9 yet....gonna stick with it for now and see as it has more options.
[Galaxy S II General] hawken84:
I'm also using RR1.7 and until today I've been using the stock, CM9 Resurrection Kernel. Everything has been running smoothly.

I tried out the Siyah Kernal (Both the 3.1.2 and a Beta version since then). Both Siyah Kernals seemed to suck the battery before my eyes. I didn't tweak anything really, i simply overclocked it (My Galaxy S2) up to 1.4GHZ and began using it. I could literally watch the battery percentage go down, about 1 percent per minute.

I have switched back but haven't given up on Siyah based on on the majority of other users swearing by it. i'll just have to read up on how to tweak it best for my needs, I guess.
[Galaxy S II General] ftpser:
I've been using stock kernel, but I changed to Siyah v3.2b5 since 1.7 because of the breathing BLN :D

I usually have 3G enabled all the time, and have around 7-8 hours of battery life with 2-3 hours screen on. In my case Siyah provide 10-15% longer batter life and I'm going to stick with that, till something better is out :p
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
Please come back and post how its treating you :)
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
True, I really didnt give siyah much time to prove its capabilities. Functionality wise Siyah is the best suit for me.

But according to what majority say giving Siyah few battery cycles will give better results on battery life :) should stick to Siyah for sometime and see
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
Post your battery stats if you can please ;)
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
Should give a try with Dorimanx and Thoravukk kernels too.

Everything is on, mobile data, Sync (Gmail + Exchange), Google location's reporting,

27% left after ~13hours up time (~6 hours asleep with wifi on), 2.2 hours screen on.

I bought a phone to use it instead of keep it deep sleep as long as it can, so I don't mind changing batteries to keep it running.

I'm OK with the state but of coz I don't mind to have it run longer than that :p
[Galaxy S II General] Massa191:
Running ICS remix 1.7 as is. With shutting it down for the night I started recharging it at after 3 days 10 hours. Had 9% left in the battery. This is with active Google+ and push mail. Calls I had were below normal I have to add.

This is the firs recharge in 1.7 so it might get a tad better.
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
Thanks for your stats :) but i think its safe to assume the 6hrs of deep sleep is during the night and theres a drastic drain after that :\

kernel back to the previous

I´m using Resurrection 1.7. I´ve tried other ROMs and this is the one that fits better for me. The battery saving is really great on this ROM. Just one thing, I would appreciate a lot if it would come with the pt-BR native dictionary for the ICS Keyboard. I didn´t find how to add the dic pack.

Back to the kernel issue, I installed twice the Siyah Kernel (the one with touch capabilities), but after a cell phone restarting, is simply goes back to the previous kernel that was running (can´t remember exactly which one). Bit since my cell is working all OK, that doesn´t bother me.

But the dictionary....
[Galaxy S II General] melakamc:
For the dictionary you can use a keyboard which supports languages. I use swiftkey and its just perfect :)

what do you mean by going back to the previous kernel? is it the recovery version that changes or the Kernel itself?
[Galaxy S II General] esanchesl:
It may be the recovery

Uhh, I can flash my GS2 without boring anyone, but I tin I don´t know the system as deep as i thought :D

Maybe it´s just the Recovery itself that changes. I would bet on that.

About the keyboard, the ROM I used before of the Resurrection came with native PT-br dic. I tried once one of the keyboards from the market, but I do prefer the stock one. That´s why I´m using ICS without TouchWiz. :cool:

Setting CPU with System Tuner Pro to above 1.4Ghz results in a hang eventually while benching.. @ 1.6Ghz the phone made a funny glitch repeating sound.. had to remove the battery :D

Going to try older Siyah kernels see if that helps...

PS: ExTweaks already installed.. messing around with it

EDIT: Update- Setting to 1.5 Volts for 1.5Ghz and 1.6Ghz still results in a screen freeze.
