[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Well I'm sorry that you don't want the Q&A section cleared out of rooting requests. People never use the search function and who would know that they have to go to Intratech's thread to find out when they join XDA? Just looking through the Q&A section, there are still questions popping up about rooting, so is one thread enough?

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
Aprreciate your effort...

But even they read hundreds of Guides / FAQs they will not be satisfied until they get atleast one teaspoon feeding directly from a senior member of XDA, a live answer, this is a nature of a Noob which can not be rewritten....

Thanks anyway...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
when people join xda , they have to read out the stickies out there, and it has all the info. thats why stickies are there
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Wow... I am amazed. You all complain when people don't use the search function for rooting. I spend my time to create a thread to help these people stop clogging up the Q&A section, and you start complaining about me. How can you win?

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
So we delete the FAQS and Guides .

We bring in a new rule that Questions no longer go in Q&A

Another rule allows multiple posts on the same subject .

Its not one thread is enough fact is so many but not all new users are lazy and want it all on a plate .

The reason that it can be hard to find stuff is that the forum is full of repetitive questions and other i cannot be bothered to read the instructions posts . That makes it difficult to find anything at all .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
So do you want me to delete the thread as it is multiple posting? I bet you have had to link someone to Chainfire's thread since this morning. It is usual, no?

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Don't take it so personally.

As you know, there are guides and stickies everywhere.

Does your guide - or any other proposed guide, for that matter - improve upon or add more substance to previously posted guides? If the answer is no, it shouldn't be posted.

While well-meant, I don't see anything new or improved in your guide compared to others.

You ask "how can you win?". Answer - it doesn't matter, it's not a competition.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
First off, I didn't take it personally or else that would be pathetic. Secondly, if other guides are just great, then why is there still questions about root popping up? Thirdly, I never implied that it was a competition. I mean that you can't win if you ask a question, or post a help guide to cut out the questions.

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] centrezuk:
thanks alot for the guide dont listen to these idiots your post has been very helpfull for me i have now rooted my sg2! you can never get too much guidance and there isnt a sticky on rooting or at least i didnt find it anyways.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
That's what I have been trying to say, but there you go. Thank you for your feedback. Glad it helped you.

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Firstly - "I'm amazed...." "you all complain...." "I spend my time...." - all your quotes. You hardly sound neutral.

Secondly - Because this site is littered with lazy sods who don't read or search. Don't flatter yourself - your offering isn't going to change that one iota.

Thirdly - Your interpretation. Whatever.

As said, I don't think your guide adds anything to previously posted ones. Sue me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
That is also your interpretation. Mr Big Man by coming out with nonsense like “sue me." If I annoy you, you can leave my thread. I'm not stopping you. Your side of the story was noted, and thrown in the bin. Thank you.

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Am I "one of these idiots"?

I found a stickied rooting guide in 5 seconds, would you like the link? Find it yourself and stop bleating.

"Guidance"??

I think you meant "you can never get too much spoonfeeding".

Still not taking it personally then;)

I think I'll stay, thanks. Fun here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
That's fine, I never intended to solve all the rooting request problems, just to have a nice guide. But clearly that isn't accepted on this site.

Thanks for staying, you would be missed if you left ;)

Are the i9100 and the t989 the same?

There might be a better place for me to find this answer, but I couldn't find it on XDA forums, so I decided to post here. Can someone tell me if the roms for the i9100 and the t989 are the same?

From what I understand, one is an international version and one is the American version of the phone? I just rooted my phone not too long ago and i wanted to install this ROM from slimroms (slim bean).

When I got to the site, I noticed only the I9100 was supported and I hope my phone will work as well. Can someone tell me if both phone's rom are the same? Thank you for your time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:

[HTC Rezound] Chillerman:
You can run any rom you want. If you run an ICS rom with the leaked firmware you need the firmware patch.
[HTC Rezound] bakerboy81:
Where do I find the firmware patch. The software that my phone is running is 2.91.605.11

The pri version is 1.13_002, 1.88_002
[HTC Rezound] RomsWell:
All the info you need is posted in the Roms op ........... In the dev section. In the install instructions.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
I suggest running BAMF or Rezrom. Bamf you can already get in a senseless flavor, Rezrom you would have to enable AOSP lockscreen in Rezrom Tweaks & would have to install a launcher of your choice. Once you get the rom fully booted, do a reboot to recovery, do a USB moutn to rename PH98IMG in SD card root and flash old firmware patches, so you can access your sd card again.
[HTC Rezound] bakerboy81:
I wanna thank everyone that helped me flash a senseless Ics rom. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Trublood_:
Hey, what's up? I'm having a issue with my galaxy mini, and I wanna know whats wrong. So, I have my phone with a protective silicone case, and whenever I take it off from the top (near charger entry) it switches off :(

Is something wrong? I need to take it to Samsung people? I already tried wiping everything, changing Roms (although its not related, I guess).

Thanks everybody and sorry for bad English

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] freakyfriday:
Well that's another weird case...mayb u r the lucky one ? :p

So, did u check if there's any loose contact for battery, I mean when u take off the cover completely does ur battery fall of by itself when holding in air towards backside?

Btw how many times did this happen ? Phone switched off every time u took the cover off?

If yes, then I believe its not a problem at all, but if want to solve that, just buy a new battery. :)

Well another piece of advice, I believe using a cover will only reduce the batterys life coz all the heat generated by it is trapped there's itself...prolonged use surely does have a significant effect on battery life... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Trublood_:
Hey, thx for replying.

My battery has no loose contact, tried holding it in air and it didnt fall.. Well, it happens almost everytime I remove the cover (Im one of those persons who just cant stop with their fingers, I keep removing it to play with LOL)

And about heating, does removing the silicone case while charging will help? I get 45 degrees celsius while charging (normal temperature, right?)

Sent from my GT-S5570 using Internet
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] freakyfriday:
Oh well, I don't know why its happenin, best not use any cover to revert this problem ;)

and yeah while charging, playin heavy games ( u need to OC to get best performance) , browsing with wifi or 3G, will produce a lot of heat.

So if u still want to use a cover, remove it while doing the above stuff :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Trublood_:
Yup, I guess that's what Im gonna do, at least while charging ...

I don't play a lot of games (except cut the rope :D) And use only 2G (Brazil...) And i don't OC either.

But thanks man, if it was something more serious Id taken it to samsung guys :D

[Motorola Photon 4G] MinceMan:
Update: So apparently this has been cracked by HBOTroll1, all thanks to him. You can find his thread here. Unfortunately I have dumped my photon because of Motorola's failed promises. It was a great phone but I will never again by from this company. I also do not have HBO GO anymore because of this issue but I might get it again to try this apk. I am reposting a direct link to the apk here.

This has been confirmed to work on the Photon by others. Also if you have an MHL device to try this on that would be appreciated. I am not sure if MHL is a problem to begin with though...

Disclaimer: To my extremely limited knowledge reposting this does not violate any copyright laws, which is not my intention. My belief is that this is a lack of functionality in the program which has been fixed in this apk. If such is not the case, HBO please contact me so we can discuss this error in your program.
[Motorola Photon 4G] CCallahan:
Unfortunately I don't think there is any kind of workaround for this. I remember having the same issue. Think I tried running HBO from browser in Webtop mode but can't remember if it just didn't work or if it worked and the video was bad quality.

Probably better off downloading vid from the net and installing to view locally. :(

[Sony Tablet S] sebarkh:
Hi,

After ICS update I noticed a very annoing and frequent bug.

It was described by other users in these subforums, and factory reset can not help it.

It is difficult to describe, as it lasts for maybe one tenth of a second and I can't find a proper word for this as I'm not a native English speaker.

But I recorded a video, so you can see this.

[YOUTUBE]H4cNDjYyTis[/YOUTUBE]

It's like a single flickerring in a shape of triangle in left bottom part of the active window or entire screen - a short white blink.

In the video I show it happening when pressing Menu for Recent Tasks, but it happens in other occasions too.

When playing video there are also some 1/10 second distortions - difficult to describe, but I suspect they have something in common with this bug...

Let's hope Sony will see this and fix this bug.

I really wonder how such a bug could have left after the development stage. I, as a regular user, have noticed this after a couple of hours of playing with the tablet. What about Sony testers?
[Sony Tablet S] android_lover69:
It's annoying!! its happening to me also, mines are black, and they happen in the left side of the tablet screen. :/
[Sony Tablet S] sfctac:
Not seeing flickering on mine yet.
[Sony Tablet S] mrevankyle:
Im just here because i am looking for a system dump to port things but it is a common issue on the Asus Transformer on ICS as well It is not a device specific bug but rather one in google's code. One fix is to only have <5 apps running at a time
[Sony Tablet S] Rumball:
Mine does not show this flickering .

Also....this is a development section of the forum . Your question should have been posted in the Tablet S General section
[Sony Tablet S] kurtis.austin2:
This is happening to a lot of us. It has already been discussed in the General section under the ICS First Impressions topic.
[Sony Tablet S] princeasi:
Yes I have the flickering, and it happens a lot using recent apps on the homescreen.
[Sony Tablet S] sebarkh:
This is very useful info. Thank you!!!!
[Sony Tablet S] Vinny1967:
I had it a little yesterday but it's gone today :)
[Sony Tablet S] Mahaco:
Got it too but its not that annoying,

It does not happen all the time its just an google thing,

It will not damage anything but if you think its to annoying then you could try

to use a CPU speed up "Dont apply EXTREME" that will higher the chance to

crash your device, i think the tegra chip is getting to much info to read,

so its a sort of buffer overrun maby speed up app will lower the flickering

YF,

Mahaco :D
[Sony Tablet S] im_iceman:
You can't over clock the kernel.. We don't have a kernel which supports that yet
[Sony Tablet S] rjsmith2007:
I have flickering too. It's probably due to low ram at certain points. Even with the flickering on occasion, the recent apps list is MUCH faster than on Honeycomb.
[Sony Tablet S] -DM-:
the flickering only happens on my tablet when it's in the cradle on clock mode and it stops completely if I use a regular wallpaper instead of a live wallpaper
[Sony Tablet S] Nezmanpro:
To me flickering happens when I open recent apps on the launcher or when I ve a popup (inside the application, on internet etc.) with a dark trasparent effect under. The same graphical problem turn up heavily with the youtube application or sometime using keyboard.

It's very very annoying this problem. It doesn't limit the use of the tablet, which is very fast and smooth, but simply ruins something which, simply, would be perfect without it.

It will be interesting create a class action, a mail, with the signature of who wants a resolution of this problem, to send to Sony for forcing it to realize a solution.
[Sony Tablet S] sfctac:
Let me retract my previous statement. Since I've rooted ICS and have been using it more and I do see screen flickering occasionally.

I can't say that I see any performance improvement with ICS though.
[Sony Tablet S] Maeur1:
http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/26/lg-optimus-4x-hands-on/

25 seconds into the video, you can see it happen on the new LG optimus 4X, i think it may be something to do with ICS.

On Gtab 10.1

First of all, hi to all (have followed this forum long time ago, so time to register and participate).

I'm on ISC too (4.0.4 CM9) and i see constant flickering also, like this and worse, even in every live wallpaper there is. In the times of Honeycomb never seen such flickers (diagonal, on top, almost any sort of it). Start happening on the latest two flashes (CM9 4.0.3 and 4.0.4) but not at first boot, or at first LWP, some time around restoring the backup of all the apps in the previous ROM.

Some users have stated that Gmail app causes flickering, others suggested other type of CPU management like "performance" or "On demand", but for me, no definitive fix to this yet. I even wondered if i should go back to honeycomb, but its hard, leaving the fast and wonderful ICS.

I see other thread running this theme, here and in other forums, makes me think that the key here will be maybe wait for the official samsung ICS that hasn't been delivered yet to my tab.

Cheers to all.

--- Edit ----

(my tab is the Gtab 10.1 wifi)

23/05/2012

With time and another diferent CM9 ICS rom:

- All CPU governors end in some flickering, some more then other, less in "performance" i think;

- Some live wallpapers flicker a lot (sames the didn't in stock honeycomb), others will strangely prevent it (with some random weather live wallpaper, tablet refuses to flicker even with the diagonal flicker with the recent app full);

- No problems while using static wallpapers, nor in full screen 3d apps (some users report flickers while gaming, not my case);

What I wanted to add is that maybe we should all wait for more official releases of ICS and then a possible final CM9 will come with all this problems fixed, specially the camera and the flicker problem in almost all ICS devices.

Again, even with all this minor bugs and no camera, good ICS roms makes previous android versions pale in comparison, and die in the horizon.

-- Edit 2 --

2012/07/07

It seems that flushing the app sidebar helps with the flickering issue.. So far, the this is the only thing that reduces the screen flicker so much.

It also looks like it gets faster with the screen transitions. Not sure about this last one.

Even with this minor issue the ics roms are the best there is out there to any tablet or smartphone. Waiting for the official release any moment soon.

Cheers!

Flickering gone.

Hi guys,

Soooo it seems that the annoying flickering, has gone after official ICS update (4.04). I´ve stressed it for 3 days now, even with A LOT of apps open and running, it wont flicker. Even with live wallpapers witch made me had even diagonal/horizontal flicks.:D

Lets hope i wasn't missing something, like some app or something, i heard rumors in the past stating that Email or Gmail app helped this flicker, but i never saw someone proving it, so, i would say its gone, it was something about CM9, i am guessing. Still , it was worth to have it by far.

Cheers to all :good:

So I'm currently on 9.4.2.21 and I was viewing a the thread Rooting brand new tf201 on .21 to try and get a better understand of how to unlock or root.

What I am mainly looking for it to unlock, but I don't not sure how to go about it.

I mainly just want to be able to flash different roms/kernels/mods.

Out of curiosity is unlocking similar to s-off for the htc phones, and rooting is just giving us access to SU? A clarification for each would be awesome.

thanks again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beekay201:
unlock/quoted from asus support website

rooting: doesn't void warranty. not available as of today with 9.4.2.21; read this to know how to downgrade to an exploitable fw (9.4.2.15 or lower). be careful while attempting this procedure.

unlocking gives your prime the ability to flash custom roms, kernels, cwm

rooting only gives your prime SU access.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] arsenik13:
I see that unlocking voids ASUS's warranty. Does anyone know if you purchase a squaretrade warranty if unlocking will void that as well?
