Maybe that's my problem. How do I remove the system file?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
After you download to a PC just open and delete it

Here is mine with the system file already deleted

http://db.tt/CTMY7F5u
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Frank_C:
Thanks for the file. I see what you meant about the system files that you removed. I ended up restoring a backup from the Malice GB ROM because my ICS backup had a bad MD5 checksum. Maybe this weekend, I'll give it another go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
Yeah no problem hope everything works out for you

how to flash t mobile radio on galaxy s2 from telus t989d

Hi,

I am new to this forum therefore my guestion could be funny, but i bought galaxy s2 telus version model t989d and unlocked it to use on wind network which is aws 1700, the signal is very weak, and i read that if i flash t mobile radio to the modem , the signal will improve, i want to do this but i dont know where to get the radio for t mobile and how to install it on my t989d, now if i use cwm and go to recovery mode and install from there , will this work. if yes then the only problem will remain is where to get the tmobile modem from. sorry if iam posting in a wrong place, help will be very appreciated, thx in advance

Hey guys, Im just wondering if I can flash any t989 rom to an i727... Are they practically the same phone +/- lte?

cheers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android88:
Yes. Just don't forget the rotation fix. Sometimes you'll also have to mod the updater-script a little.

i have three regular batteries i carry with me along with an external charger, i want to ask you guys which extended battery last the longest?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bambam126:
I use trexcell and it works great o can get like 23 hours or more and thats alot compaired to 8 hours
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Majin101:
Ugh there's a thread like this already. I use trexcell
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] caseyatbt:
I just ordered Gorilla Gadgets due to previous experience and a couple of recommendations from the other thread.

What are you guys using to charge these externally. Most of the chargers on eBay will only work if you flip the standard battery over and you can't put the extended battery in it since the pins will be on the wrong side.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nas02302:
I got the external charger from sprint actually
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MajorTankz:
what's the best slim extended battery? the only one posted here has gotten mixed reviews.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Atillius:
There is a 2300mah on ebay. I just have bad luck with these cheap batteries. They endup being garbage. I would say your best bet is to get an external battery, or just spend the money on a real Samsilung battery and pick up a cheap external charger. Carry around the extra battery.

Invasion side note, they have thisvcase for iphones that has an external batter that you can turn on and off, it fits around the phone like a case. Anyone know of they make anything like that for the gs2 phones?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] XxLostSoulxX:
Those suck i have one for the OG Epic worked like for a month then died loosing its cells and not to mention if you slide out the KB it would shut off because it wasn't a proper fit.

Plus like most of these battery there just generic with with a clothing on them
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] itsallsubliminal:
I've had mine coming up to a month soon and I can't drain this thing unless I really try, not to mention I have my screen at 35% brightness all day long. We will see if it dies out but you may have gotten a lemon. Mine fits like a glove so there is more hope here. I've got 63% battery after 10hrs with 4g on all day and 35% brightness. I've listened to about 2 hours of music and surfed the Web and xda periodically through the day. Id say this battery is legit. Best $27 spent.

I took a trip for a cubs game (not a fan, but tix and hotel were free) and didn't charge my phone that night. Used it for plenty of pictures, texting, music during the drive, etc, and after 25hrs I had 30% battery left... Granted Milwaukee barely has 4g, so I rolled 3g most everywhere I went, and on a side note, sprints network is dog sh*t in Miltown, Web pages and maps took sooo long to load.

EDIT:Im GUNNA ADVISE YOU TO USE SCOTT's VERSION. IT IS BETTER. BUT HEY WHY NOT JUST LEAVE THIS HERE. LINK TO SCOTT'S THREAD: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1642217

This is today's leaked ICS build, Rooted, Zipaligned, and Busyboxed.

s-off only for now. i have not tried this on any other hboot so TRY AT OWN'S RISK! also DO NOT FLASH LEEDROID TWEAKS!! it will cause sytemUI crashes, leaving you with no status bar.

in order to flash on the latest leak, you must first reflash amon ra as it is removed when RUU'ing.

AMON RA PH98IMG: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5a3lj506hsmurxa/PH98IMG.zip

just flash this in hboot.

YOU CANNOT USE FASTBOOT TO FLASH AMON RA!! as we do not have a modified, eng h-boot YET.

just use cleanWIPE to wipe then flash. cleanwipe http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1562176

LINK:http://android.thesmallprint.org/newleakstock.zip md5: 044f69b772af8c17119282a7a20efe2b

GTALK IS ATTACHED IN CASE YOU USE IT!!

IF ROOT DOESN't WORK, FLASH THE BINARY IN ONE OF THE PAGES

THANKS TO:

HTC and Verizon for the device

Android Police for the leak

So what we clean wipe then flash RUU using amon ra then after done reflash amon ra recovery back on right?
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
haha ;)

damn, should've taken out that verizon cd rom script on here! doesn't bother me that much, though lol
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
this is just the rom NOT the full RUU. this does not have the radios or hboot. this is for those of us who went to the leak and want root or those who want to try out the new kernal
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
srry ill keep that in mind. how does it run?? just curious what you think :)
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
im waiting on setup..its stuck on we're checking for existing email accts lol
[HTC Rezound] nnnnr14:
When you say "Want Root" if I flash the RUU I will lose root?
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
i usually dont even go through that. i just hit home button after choosing language lol
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
dude, you deleted google talk? hahaha i use that A LOT.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
yeah flashing RUU is like starting new. you have a brand new phone essentially. with this you get root back.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
yeah lol just download from market. it was a big file. helped keep it down
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
i don't think its in the market...

yeah it's not lol

yeah i saw his tweet. ill prob flash that too lol. Hi everyone! My names Anthony and im a Flashaholic lol
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
Do we need to flash the RUU? I got SOFF and already flashed thr radios. Can I simply wipe and install this via amon ra?
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
you can try. i RUU'd fully and then flashed. it SHOULD work. because, in theory this is a rom. doesn't affect radios or hboots
[HTC Rezound] Nic2112:
Thanks. I'll give it a try and ser what happens.

[HTC Rezound] dogswind:
Sorry to hijack, but do you guys know if fixing the animations allows the screen to rotate properly? I've been thinking they might be related. If rotation gets fixed on Sense 4, I will just wait on that rather than go through the ruu right now.

i think it may be related idk but id ask in the pkmn or bamf evita threads

Edit: Running sleek so far.. Can tell vast improvements from this RUU vs. the last. No FC's or weird behavior.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PreceptorJR:
Hey everyone,

I've spend about 3 hours researching these forums and tinkering tonight and I'm at wits end. Help would be appreciated. I am trying to get all of my phone's apps onto the KF.

Here is what happened...

Preface) I used KFU 0.95 to root my phone and install Google services. I synched my Google account

A) 6.3.1 update unrooted my phone. I used KF Utility to restore root.

B) Several apps in my Google Play Store are coming up as "incompatible with this device" (were doing this before step A as well), but I want to install them on the KF.

C) I used by Android Phone and Titanium Backup Pro to sync my backups to Google Drive (which takes a long time, btw).

D) I opened Google Drive on the KF and selected files that end in .apk.gz (which is the actual app, right) one at a time - can more be selected at once?

E) Astro File Manager opens to my system/app folder, but when I go to put it in there, it says "no file selected" - so nothing gets installed on the KF.

F) It's late and I'm not sure how else to go about getting these apps to the KF.

Thanks in advance!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbailey212:
Download the backups from drive, and download titanium on your fire. Move the ti backups to the titanium backup>backups folder. And run restore from titanium

sent from my Nokia 5110
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PreceptorJR:
OK, Thanks. I have TiBu on my Fire, but when I double click on the file in Google Drive to download it, Astro File Manager comes up. When it takes me to a destination folder directly after that, and I hit "OK", AFM says "no file selected"...why would it do that?

Also, when I do my backup, it gives my a lot of files, some ending in .tar.gz, .properties, and of course the apk.gz - is this normal? Should I only try to DL the apk.gz?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aesrys:
I recently did a backup using TiBu from MoDaCo to an ICS ROM. There should likely be 3 files per app you are backing up (I did Dead Space). The 3 files should end with: .apk.gz, tar.gz, and .properties. I downloaded all 3. I then went into TiBu and went into Batch from the menu. Under batch, I verified the backups and then restored. Hope that helps a bit.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PreceptorJR:
How did you dl them, what program/app did you use?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aesrys:
The full (paid) version of TiBu lets you integrate with Box/Dropbox/Google Drive, so you could use one of those. In my case, I actually just connected the KF to my PC and copied the files over and then back once I had changed ROMs. Either will work, but the files need to end up at least in the Titanium Backups folder when you're ready to restore (I think, there may be a way to change backup locations in TiBu settings, I just haven't messed with it).
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PreceptorJR:
I have the paid version. I'm still trying how to get this stuff from Google Drive and onto the Kindle. What folders did you use to move the files? Do you have to move all three or just the .apk?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pio_masaki:
You have to move all 3 files for TB to load them up for restore. Sdcard/titaniumbackup/files go here
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PreceptorJR:
So, I just need to run a "batch", "restore" and they will be functioning?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pio_masaki:
Assuming they show up you can batch restore, or restore app or app+ data per app from the bottom of the list in the backup restore tab.

Restoring apps + data across different roms is not generally a good idea, I usually do app only. Certain apps I do data restore, and I'm always watching for issues caused by it.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovejoy777:
app called appsharer;-)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PreceptorJR:
Is this the easiest way to get the apps that are listed as "incompatible with this device" added to a rooted 6.3.1 KF? It seems really complicated and time consuming.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pio_masaki:
For that you can side load an apk file and run it from any file manager, it'll install aside from any app specific problems. Side load is basically sourcing the app apk you want, plopping it somewhere on the device then installing it. I'll leave how to get those apps up to you and google.

Should keep in mind, it says incompatible for a reason, it may just not work on any given rom/device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] digital4282:
I know this is probably a long shot, but from what I've read Asurion doesn't follow the phone, it follows the SIM. I spoke with a lady from Asurion, but she was no help at all, so I spoke with someone at T-Mobile and he wasn't any help either. They both basically stated that they weren't sure and would need to get back to me about it. That was almost a week ago and I still haven't heard back from either company, great customer service, isn't it?

If the insurance won't cover the phone I don't want to be paying the $7.99/mo for it and not be able to use it if the time comes.

PS: I do assume the answer is no, but it's worth asking I suppose.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phio:
Try starting a claim online and see how far it goes. Or call and ask someone at asurion.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdiddy_ub:
the answer is no..i have checked, double checked, tripled checked...

i originally asked a tmo chat rep..he said yes, i didnt believe him so i wanted to double check...i asked another rep and he said no...then i called asurion directly and they said no

asurion is the company that handles most of the major US carriers...being that the galaxy nexus (GSM) is not supported by any of our carriers its easy to see that the answer would be no

ensquared will though...only like $60/year and a $75 deductible

ensquared.com

they cover water damage, loss, theft, drops, pretty much everything

i just sold my SG2 today..gonna call tmobile to cancel my phone insurance now that im using the galaxy nexus
