Hi,

I de-branded by Vodafone HTC Sensation using the following ROM:

ruu_pyramid_htc_europe_1.50.401.1_r_radio_10.58.9035.00u_10.15.9035.02_2_release_228602_signed

And I first used SuperCID to install flash this ROM and then changed it to HTC__032 which is Europe unbranded after it was installed. However, when I try to install the ICS update, I get a message:

"We have determined that your phone may be running a modified version of its system software. For your protection, we cannot update your phone. Please revert your phone to the official HTC system software to update your phone. If you did not modify the system software or would like help reverting your system, please contact us via the support section at www.htc.com"

Now what do I do? Can anybody give me the official HTC Vodafone Australia ROM so I can go back?

If I used SuperCID (1111111), then it says "there are no update available for your phone".

This sucks.
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
Change your cid to HTC_001 and you should be able to get the proper update for your current rom.
[HTC Sensation] masands:
Didn't work. Same message.

Never mind. I did find my original Vodafone stock ROM and flashed back. Now the question is...should I S-ON or is ok just to leave it at S-OFF? Will it affect the ICS update whenever Vodafone decides to launch it?
[HTC Sensation] sparx180:
The reason its giving you the message in the OP is custom recovery or custom rom. If your on your stock gingerbread rom then just flash stock recovery in hboot. Being s off or rooted doesn't stop you getting the update.
[HTC Sensation] ziddey:
Just use a RUU to go back to stock?

I didn't want to pay the 100$ for a Mugen branded one so I decided to get a no name branded one for cheap! It's only 15$. I will see how it is and post a review about it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gabriel713281:
I bought this exact one and it works great.

Ill do a brief review now...

It does last almost twice as long as stated and the great thing about this is that it comes with an extended back door AND a wall charger for your battery thats not in use... it is actually universal and fits whatever battery between 1 and 3 inches in length. It works for the extended battery and your OEM battery so when youre not using one charge the other.

How the charger works ..

There are two slideable prongs that go into each battery terminal but the thing about the extended battery is that since it is made of thin strips of plastic plastic, the terminal separators are easily broken as shown in my picture below. it still seems to work fine with or without the separators though.

Its kind of complicated at first but you get the hang of it... you have to make sure you get the right prong in the right terminal or else the battery wont charge . There is a tri color led light that lets you know the status of the charger a brief breakdown.

When the LED light is OFF: There is no power going IN or OUT of the charger

When the LED light is RED and it is the wall: It means you have the prongs in the wrong place and will not charge

When the LED light is PINK and its plugged in the wall: It means that it is charging.

When the LED light is BLUE and it is plugged in the wall: That your charge is complete.

When the LED light is Blue and there is no battery present: It means that your electrical outlet is working properly and it can be charged

It doubles the width of your phone although its not that much heavier. without the case and its added mass, it will not increase the phones likeliness to shatter because the back door pops off upon impact with the floor so it disassembles upon dropping.. (First Hand experience :/ )

Overall I would recommend this purchase
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djpingpong:
Got any pics of it in the phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xuanphucn:
can we use the original charger instead of this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Branso07:
Yes you can. Its just an added bonus. And actually the size is not all that much more. The weight of the battery also isn't much more. The back cover also feels good and smooth. I haven't got to use it completely yet but it does last me through the day.

hi

i know there are only 3 custom roms with webtop support

but can you use any of the other roms with gentop2?

i love the neutrino rom but not being able to use the webtop is a pain

just need some sort of function to run the phone on the lapdock

even if its a mirrored display

whats the best rom options or should i have stayed on stock?
[Atrix 4G General] emu123:
Been trying out some of the ice cream builds today

They mirror the display from the phone at the phone Res so looks quite blocky
[Atrix 4G General] sxg75:
Nope. Gentop is kind of modded OSH / webtop. Only works under blur roms.

You'll have to wait until Webtop/TabletUI will be released by moto (along with ICS).
[Atrix 4G General] Bluemotion:
I doubt the atrix is at the top of motos list...

but as soon as the tabletUI resolution gets sorted,

using chroot linux would be feasable... and with great optimised releases like gendols gentop2 im sure being on par with a netbook would be possible.
[Atrix 4G General] arik100:
why cyanmogen isn't developed and released with webtop?

so hard supporting it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tssphysicsboi:
Right now I have the stock android 4.0.4 rooted. Since they've updated the volume wake, it has given me nothing but trouble. Yes I know volume wake is enabled when I set lockscreen to none, however, when I am using Playerpro to play music, I don't want the screen to turn on when I hit the volume up or down since the phone will be in my pocket.

I've tried tasker and other programs to try to disabled lockscreen, but none work. The only way to do it is manually changing the 'none' to 'slide lock' in the settings each time, depending on whether I am listening to music or not. Note, I am also using widgetlocker.

If anyone can guide me in the right direction to how I can make it automatic such that it changes the lock option when I open playerpro or to just enable volume wake even under lockscreen that would be great! I've searched for hours and can't find anything.

Thanks~
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tssphysicsboi:
found a temp solution after many hours.

1. set lockscreen to none under settings for stock android (buttons wake will work)

2. download: smart screen off (free version works fine)

Then even with headset when in your pocket screen will not turn on. You can toggle the smart screen off and on so it won't completely drain all your batteries. This is a work around, but I would still want something more concrete than relying on a proximity sensor!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilisto:
Here is another way..

platform_frameworks_base / policy / src / com / android / internal / policy / impl / KeyguardViewMediator.java

See line 864~

private boolean isWakeKeyWhenKeyguardShowing(int keyCode, boolean isDocked) {
switch (keyCode) {
// ignore volume keys unless docked
[COLOR="Red"] case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN:[/COLOR]
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_MUTE:
return isDocked;

// ignore media and camera keys
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MUTE:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_HEADSETHOOK:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_PAUSE:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_STOP:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_NEXT:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_PREVIOUS:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_REWIND:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_RECORD:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MEDIA_FAST_FORWARD:
case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_CAMERA:
return false;
}
return true;
}

Remove those 2 lines and compile. Then you can get volume wake feature when using stock lockscreen.

Maybe you can find smali editing method in somewhere in xda..
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Samwes:
My Laptop is ridiculously broken because its so old now. I know the obvious answer would be get a new laptop but that currently is not a financially viable option. The wifi radio inside it is broken so I was wondering if there is a way in which I can use the galaxy player as the radio via usb or some way?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gmillz:
Have you tried any of the USB tethering apps in the play store?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Samwes:
They are to use the radio in a laptop to get the wifi to the phone. I need that reversed.

Hi. I'm just curious whether my phone is having a poor signal strength problem. As it shows the best values Im getting are -89dBm 12 asu.

What about yours? What are the better values you have seen on your Galaxy S 2?
[Galaxy S II General] vladutz2007:
mine are -79 dBm 18 asu.What does it means :))
[Galaxy S II General] Emexrulsier:
95db 9asu
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Without mentioning your network mode its meaningless.

Here is mine, on 2G always,

[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Goody yet another post your signal strength .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] imlgl:
-107 dbm 4asu

Can anyone top that haha?
[Galaxy S II General] madquack:
Are you going to at least say what modem you use? Signal strength varies wildly from person to person. What is the point of this thread exactly?
[Galaxy S II General] chathura:
Are you seriously blind? :confused: I have already mentioned the point of this thread. I just getting a very poor signal and have tried almost all of radio firmwares posted in XDA. after all the I'm still getting the same signal problem. before moving to another device, I just thought to ask others about their. thought those who into this forum are not stupid enough to say it is useless to ask a question I'm having with my device. :mad:
[Galaxy S II General] madquack:
Since I'm waiting for my laundry to dry, I will entertain you're once again useless post. I understand you're new here, and I understand I was in your shoes once but I searched long and hard trying to find the answer to my question. Then and only then would I make a post or start a new thread pertaining to the question I was figure out.

Think about my man, everyone lives in different parts of the world. Perhaps a more intelligent option would be to ask "hey people from my area, what radio are you all using? Do you get decent speeds when surfing the web? How is battery life on radio yadda yadda yadda you'd get more educated results and responses that way.

Your post is akin to asking people what their battery life is, or what their under volting values are or over-clocking speeds. Every phone is different my brother. Even with identical phones with identical radio firmwares are going to have different values for network signal.
[Galaxy S II General] imlgl:
Just to mention a large part is the network you are on. I am on T-mobile and I can get around 1-2 bars at home. My father is on Vodafone and gets maximum, same goes for my Mother which is on O2. That means that the nearest signal repeater has O2 and Vodafone parts on it to broadcast their signal. Meanwhile mine is coming from a different one longer away which will give me the lower signal.
[Galaxy S II General] chathura:
Hi bro. I guess still you are not getting me. Here my problem is I cannot get signal strength values greater than I have mentioned in my post. I meant the displaying value. Not what network gives me. I was just curious whether is it the best value a galaxy s 2 displays at all. I'm just chasing the displayed value. Have had like thousands of searches in this forum and Google as well. And haven't seeing any discussion related mine.

Anyway here I see some people getting better values com pairing mine. My device is just like locked into the -89dBm 12 asu. and also other android phones like Sony Ericsson Neo and Galaxy S getting about -59dBm 24asu in the same place with me. Also I know there are no one in XDA who uses my network and from my area as it is a small island. But other thing is the area I'm living have a great mobile network coverages. As my galaxy s gets a Amazing network connection. So that this might be useless for people like you. But this helped my problem.
[Galaxy S II General] chathura:
just to say you, I'm getting full bars whereever I'm going. but the signal strength value stuck at maximum -89bBm 12asu while others phones getting more than mine in whatever the area. :mad:
[Galaxy S II General] anthony151:
If you're using CM9 then you'll be limited to -89dBm in the REPORTED signal level, doesn't mean you are not actually getting more.
[Galaxy S II General] santhoshar:
I have just moved to a high rise building and always my calls are dropped. But phone shows full signal bars. Is it due the ICS problem? Or for high rise buildings, is signal strength will be dropped?
[Galaxy S II General] ram3n:
Always between 17 and 24 asu.

Best signal reception = less battery draining = best battery life ever :thumbup:

Cheers matey

Sent via my S2 monster
[Galaxy S II General] anthony151:
Normally the higher you are the more interference you'll have due to the fact that you will get reception from too many towers so yes you will have very good signal but very poor quality.
[Galaxy S II General] tfn:
Dont really know what you will get by getting people's signal values, but mine just keeps fluctating between -85db - 96db and from -9 to 16

I have O2 UK network and get HSpda +.

I guess it must be your network problem .. Have you tried a different network providers sim in the phone and see if it makes a difference?

Also try enabling and/or disabling Fast Dormancy *#9900# and see if it helps you in anyway.

good day

I believe that is up to your service provider since it is a matter of how many cell towers are reaching you at any given moment and even then they may not be able to do much if you have line of sight to a good portion of the city from your vantage point.
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
If you're using an AOSP based rom, enter *#*#0011#*#* into the dialer to see the actual values for signal strength.
[Galaxy S II General] pablo216:
Higher values means less quality. The ideal is 69!!

You have great values, don't try to go up since that means less quality!! Some research wouldn't hurt!

I'm using a 3.5" 480x320 phone, and here is my feedback:

First of all, I'd like to thank the dev for his work

The default horizontal number of icons in app drawer is too high. 5 in portrait and 7 in landscape is too much and causes icons to overlap.

App labels on desktop are almost always truncated (cut). May I suggest splitting titles on two lines to display full name.

Widgets access thru the app drawer would be nice.

Also smoother graphics animations would make this much more enjoyable.
