OK! I am so scared to be flashing an ICS rom but I want to take the plunge now, I am on Calkuins E4GT 2.9.2 rom and want to flash AOKP, what must I do before I flash? I also want to know what I have to do to restore back to this rom say if I don't like ICS?

Can you please include the links to anything I need? Thanks :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
Make a nandroid backup. Then Odin the stock EL26 build with CWM recovery. From there you can go to AOKP. And use Calkulin's Format All to do the wiping if you use CWM to flash anything.

First off, read this so you know what mistakes not to make:

Here's the link for EL26:

And for AOKP:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1514665

If you don't like ICS and want to revert back to what you had just Odin One-Click EL26 again, use the Auto Root Package to install CWM and restore the nandroid in recovery. If you do any wiping in recovery mode use Calkulin's Format All. It's much safer than manually wiping.

The link for the AOKP build has a really good how-to included with it. Takes you step by step through it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
Okay I have a question? Why do we have to Odin back to el26? why not EL29? Just wondering thats all...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ahhlix:
Because el26 has the clockwork recovery you need
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
Ya it has CWM5 on it that's be shown to be the safest to flash over to ICS. A lot of people ended up with bricked phones to discover that, lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Root:
I've flashed many times from EL29. It's flashing back that kills it. Wrong partition or something. Going forward is fine. Use Calk's Format all. And try not to restore data. It sometimes breaks things.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dudeman1st:
I think the issue is that you want to be using a certain version of CWM, and not any other recoveries like Rogue builds (no offense). That being said, I have flashed ICS from EL29 plenty of times. Get Mobile Odin Lite and our flash kernel from XDA (only available from XDA). Get the CWM EL26 kernel that everyone is using. Mobile Odin the kernel and hold the power button and up volume on reboot. It isn't much different or take much longer than rebooting into recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Honestly OP there are stickys and instructions in every thread on how to do these things safely and (no offense) but if those were not enough and you still had to make a thread to ask again.... Maybe just maybe you should chill till they come up with a solid no problems method. I believe MeWarning gave you a lot of info as well as a few others.

Also they say to use EL26 but it seems that all recoveries EL29 and lower can be used with out issue. I would follow what the masses are doing though and not question too much especially if you are afraid....IMHO

Cut and dry as long as you flash and do everything you need too out of a GB kernel and CWM you will be ok..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
I wouldnt use an el29 rogue repack to flash any aosp ics roms, might be safe for TW ics but aosp all recommend el26+cwm5 because that was the last build with stock cwm actually baked into the kernel and is the safest for flashing aosp ics. Mobile Odin and el26+cwm are 2 good items to keep on your SD card for flashing ics its quick and easy and doesn't take much longer to flash using that method than just booting to baked in recovery to flash

[LG Optimus Black] genioux:
Greetings!

I have a small question regarding to build.prop.

"ro.lge.vibrator_amp=120" does this string changes the behavior of vibration itself? I mean, does it make vibration more powerful?

I have this question because I think that vibration on my P970 is a little weird (this is my 3rd P970 and I've always thought that vibration on this one was different - weaker than in the others)...

If that string doesn't change anything, is there anything I could do to improve vibration behaviour?

P. S. I'm using Zeus v6.22 and it's original build.prop.

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus Black] genioux:
... Anyone?
[LG Optimus Black] foggydisaster:
I think it changes amplitude of the vibrator... you could try change value to higher one (If you need more powerfull vibration) or lower it (for low power vibration) I may be wrong but i think its logical:)

OK so I've seen a few threads about NFC so thought it might be an idea to correlate all the info into one thread. Lets make this a thread for questions about using NFC or buying tags etc. as well as giving tips we've found or how we've overcome problems. Then I can update this op with the tips or deals we've found!! :-)

Me and my friend use Android beam all the time so it def works, make sure it's enable in settings, pretty obvious but by default mine was disabled
[HTC One X] dansharpy:
I know some tags will work with symbian but not with android. So there might be a compatibility issue as well. Something to do with the hardware maybe?
[HTC One X] MattWPBS:
Using the Sony Xperia Smart Tags and app from the Play Store. Works fine for me. Only thing I could do with is GPS on/off in the options. Going to have a play with it and Tasker to see how they can combine.
[HTC One X] nikorette:
Anyone from aus or outside us been able to install google wallet and use it?
[HTC One X] dansharpy:
To get GPS toggle working you need Tasker AND secure settings. Once you have installed secure settings go to system settings, security and enable it as a device administrator. Then open the app and go to the helper tab and install the helper. Now go into tasker and go to settings, misc tab and tick allow external access. Create a new task (i called mine GPS Toggle) click the plus to add a new task and click on plug ins. Select secure settings then hit configure. In the drop down list you will see gps. choose on, off or toggle and hit the little disc icon in the corner to save. Now you can select this task from nfc task launcher to program gps state to tags! :)

[HTC One X] Evangelion01:
That's for the Galaxy Nexus.

The Google Wallet application will not work on a One X. Unless you can fool Google Wallet into thinking you're using one of the Wallet-approved phones (Nexii and those LG phones), you won't be getting anywhere.
[HTC One X] mikep1993:
I want to buy 10 of those, but i'm not sure which ones are better for my One X.

I think i'll try to write my own NFC Application in the near future. So which ones shall i buy?

These:

http://rapidnfc.com/item/59/white_nfc_tags_ntag203_round_38mm

Or these:

http://rapidnfc.com/item/48/white_nfc_tags_ultralight_c_round_38mm

Is there a limit how many times i can rewrite those tags? Or can i only write the information once on those nfc tags?
[HTC One X] dansharpy:
As far as i know you can rewrite tags as many times as possible (although i think you can make them read only) Those tags look ok, id check the capacity though as i couldnt see it anywhere. If you want to use them for things other than just tel numbers or links then id go for some 1K tags.
[HTC One X] lostunsunghero:
im confused as to why you would use a tag to say turn on/off the gps for example when its just as easy to go to the settings and do it? In most cases its probably quicker and easier than having to carry around tags with you.

for example on my phone now all i have to do is hit a single widget on the home screen (power control app). Whereas if i had a tag i would need to get that out of my pocket as well as my phone and swipe it.
[HTC One X] dansharpy:
NFC tags are useful if you regularly need to do a set of tasks in a particular situation. You also tend to leave the tags where that situation occurs rather than keeping them in your pocket! For instance when I get in my car I only listen to music from my phone so I want it to start playing. I also want the music app to load, media volume set to maximum and to turn wifi off. By using a tag (which is stuck to the dash) I can make the phone perform all these tasks at once. I can also use another tag to set the phone up in a different way for when I leave the car. Hope that explains it OK :-)
[HTC One X] MattWPBS:
Thanks Dan!

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

As Dan's said, it's not carrying the tag around, it's having the tag where you need to switch a load of stuff.

For example, my home one is wifi on, bluetooth off, volume max. Car's wifi off, bluetooth on, open the car home app. Work's silent, no wifi, no bluetooth. Just tap the tag when you go past it/get in the car. Job's a good 'un.
[HTC One X] lostunsunghero:
ah right,

i was under the impression that you could only use the tags to perform 1 task rather than a "subroutine" of functions

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wond3r:
Bell Motorola Atrix, with unlocked bootloader running CM7. Have issues with the headphone jack and the screen being glitchy. The phone is still under warranty.

Which SBF or zip do I flash to remove the "unlocked bootloader" text and to be able to send in to warranty?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caster62003:
You do realize by resetting your ROM back to factory that does not reset the blown fuse don't you? Part of unlocking your bootloader means that you have voided all sort of manufacturer warranty coverage, meaning you are on your own, I would be very surprised if they do anything for you.

However, should you feel the need you still want to try:

1. Find your carrier and matching version here

2. Using SBF flash the downloaded ROM (Be sure to follow all instructions, nobody is responsible for bricks due to carelessness)

By the way, there is no need to ask the same question is two different places, now confusion will ensue and nobody will take you seriously.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] windozeanti:
I had tried flashing a Bell ROM. The word "unlocked" is gone when booting up the phone. You can try your luck with the warranty.

I am amaze that Atrix has so much problem with the headset jack and screen. :mad:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
Unlocking your bootloader DOES NOT necessarily mean you have voided your warranty. (The message at unlock states you MAY void your warranty). Read through the forums. Many, many people have returned their phones under warranty with unlocked bootloaders and have had no problems. In fact, I don't remember seeing any posts where someone was refused warranty for an unlocked bootloader.

Hey guys, my eng is not so good so I hope you can understand what I will say. I've found the way to root the Italian Version of ICS brand TIM with NFC, the GT-i9100P.

Despite the guides for the nobrand version, that method is not suitable for the 9100P TIM.

If you want the guide you only have to wait for Monday morning: I will first publish it on my blog, then if you like I will try to translate here.

I hope this can help some of you because it has been a problem for me not to have the root privileges on the stock TIM ICS.

CYA.

===== EDIT =====

The complete guide is HERE, in italian.

If you're looking for the English version please click HERE

Please consider a small donation if you like my workaround by clicking here, thankyou.

CYA
[Galaxy S II General] :
Why wait until Monday? Flash an ICS kernel which has CWM recovery, install su + superuser/supersu, flash back original kernel (which you can find on samfirmware), ????, profit.

I guess I'm missing something.
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
He will miss NFC for sure
[Galaxy S II General] :
I guess you missed the part about not changing ROM, and flashing back the original kernel?

Good job.
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
And that will bring back NFC options in settings?
[Galaxy S II General] piffe:
Yes, the NFC settings will be back because of the native firmware version and it's fully functional.

You miss that the NFC version is different from the one without the nfc chip: with the italian tim branded version that method is not compatible.

I've tried many times with kernels and booting in cwm to flash the SU installer but when I came back to home in ics the file was missing.

Be sure, this is the only method to flash the italian version with brand TIM; it's a bad rom to inject root because of the space.

I say to wait because the guide is timed to be published on monday morning on my blog. ;)

If you have any idea it's wellcome, but I think you cannot make it for sure if you have not the S2 in the conditions we have in Italy with TIM carrier.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I don't have an I9100P with brand TIM to prove you wrong, but it just sounds like nonsense that existing methods do not work. Be that using the method mentioned above, or http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1501719

I haven't heard of anyone having trouble rooting that model whilst retaining NFC functionality.

I does not do anything because the ROM is fully charged with TIM and there is no space to inject the files we need for superuser. We have no KB free to store them.

I have the UK orange Gt-I9100P and this gave me root and nfc still work ie tags ,one tap walet,android deam give it a try really easy to do
[Galaxy S II General] piffe:
Ok, with stock rom, not rooted I mean, open Titanium and see how much free space you have on system: if you have no space you cannot flash any SU or BUSYBOX.

Mobile Odin helps me moving automatically GMaps to free space.

This is the method:

- flash stock nobrand ics

- root with cwm

- launch mobile odin and flash the branded version of ics

- it will ask to delete gmaps: say yes.

- make sure you have checked the inject superuser

- flash firmware

This is the method I found to root a rom full like an egg. I think Orange put on you roms less software than tim in Italy: we have about 10 TIM programs for about 20-30 MB occupied by them. With no root permissions we cannot unistall it to make room for SU binaries.

U still think I'm wrong?
[Galaxy S II General] piffe:
If you search in forums you will find the in Italy we have many problems with that ICS release, not with the unbranded one instead.
[Galaxy S II General] piffe:
Ah, thanx for add LOLSPAM to tags: is it auto-tagging? :|
[Galaxy S II General] :
If what you describe is indeed the case, your solution sounds long winded and unnecessary. You should just be able to flash a CF-root kernel, boot to CWM recovery, use adb or flash a simple script to remove some junk and carry on as normal.

However, if I was in your position I would just stick to an unbranded ROM if the provider is filling it full of junk.
[Galaxy S II General] piffe:
My english is really bad so... In Italy we have not the i9100p unbranded... I've not used any script to clear the junks because I've not found any that was suitable for my use. I also have not the capacity to modify it for my personal needs. My solution is a workaround, I admit, but it works fine and the payment for Mobile Odin Pro from Chainfire has not been a problem.

Ok, it seems not all solutions are welcome here if they seem strange solutions.

Btw, it worked for me and till I wanted the stock rom.

[Galaxy S II General] mat_mas:
This could be very interesting for Italian users who want to de-brand their Gt-I9100P branded by TIM carrier (like mine).

Which firmware are you using? Do you think it is an international, multi-language version? We could use this firmware as a base for rooting and de-branding, instead of LP7 version that seems not to work in NFC devices.
[Galaxy S II General] piffe:
Sorry for the delay but I've been very busy. :(

The italian rom is multilingual too as usual but my guide is not for debrand: the TIM version will remain after the root.

The problem with the TIM operator brand is that system folder is fully charged and there's no space to place the superuser apk. In this case you can succesfully use my guide, else you don't need it.

The firmware is:

BaseBand: i9100pXXLPB

Kernel: i9100pXXLPF

Build: IML74K.XXLPF

Tomorrow the guide will be posted in english, sorry for this delay too. ;)
