No thanks. Maybe a few years ago.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Adamsville MITM:
WTF?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Xx_xBLADEx_xX:
The ugly truth

I have had two G2's in the past and very recently changed to the HTC One S but my first G2 was replaced for a cracked screen. Somehow I cracked it while I fell asleep with it and had it replaced but my second G2 was a beast. It stood the test of time and took everything I threw at it. I even attempted to destroy it and deliberately threw it on the ground to bid it farewell to give me an excuse to get a new phone but the sucker would not die and the Z hinge took the beating. I have to say that it is indeed fast for its time. I had that phone over clocked at a constant 1.5 GHz and great battery life with ICS. I have even tried numerous Sense Roms but the roms were unstable and could not run well on the phone. I do blame the phone’s hardware for this however but anything other than Sense was fast and never had any issues with overheating if that makes a difference. Yes the phone is bulky and not very pretty to look at but it the plus side is that it was one of the easiest phones to root. I will miss it now that I will be sending it off for rebate but as they say… all good things come to an end or in this case the HTC One S takes over and destroys the G2. Sure it doesn’t have a full qwerty keyboard but I can live without that ;)

Cheers
[G2 and Desire Z General] alpha-niner64:
The haptic feedback on the G2 was pretty loud. Also the audio just wasn't that loud. However everything else like GPS, speed, durability is spot on. I should know: I have mines. 4EXT recovery is the best one out there: even better than CWM. My advice? If you can get a G2 on the cheap: do it. Just don't buy a case for the G2: it'll make texting harder.

OG look for the G2 is better anyways.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Drzfr3shboialex:
it gets 14.4 mbps 4g not 42
[G2 and Desire Z General] Product F(RED):
And this isn't in the G2 forum, why? Are you just waiting for someone to come along and challenge you so you can start an argument?
[G2 and Desire Z General] orb3000:
.

Thread moved. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.

Failure to comply with forum rules will result in an infraction and/or ban depending on severity of rule break.
[G2 and Desire Z General] oVeRdOsE.:
Agreed with the original post.

You'll say that I'm crazy, but here what I did:

I'm finding deals for smart phone and I buy them and some times I resell them.

I had : - motorola milestone

- Htc sensation 4g

- galaxy sII

- Nexus S

I tried each of them for more than a week. Guess what, I always come back to the g2.

the track pad is the main feature why I like it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] biohazrd51:
If I recall, it was 14, not 42. And as far as being first 4G, wasn't definition of 4G 100Mb and its all a marketing ploy?
[HTC One S] tdtylert:
I just read about the wavy line issue but these lines do not move its kind of similar to the line issue on the t989 does anyone else have this?
[HTC One S] tdtylert:
Nobody? Also noticed if you're in a completely dark room and lock the phone in a message thread with someone you can see the outline of the message boxes a split second I just want to know if this is normal or not since I just purchased this phone 2days ago.
[HTC One S] tdtylert:
I get no love :-(
[HTC One S] KillaHurtz:
Maybe you could be more specific: What ROM, Which version of the device....etc....etc.

The lines you are referring to are called "mura", and unfortunately they are a natural artifact in SuperAmoled screens.
[HTC One S] krazygreen:
Nope, don't have the same problem I had with the SGS2. It's clear as day for me in any lighting with accurate colors, including the whites.

And I might be in a small small minority here, but I prefer the pentile display. It's sharper and just seems to look better to my eyes.
[HTC One S] tdtylert:
Oh okay thanks, yeah I'm the phone is the T-Mobile US version and stock Rom
[HTC One S] tdtylert:
Yeah but I found out its not just the messaging thread where the outline of some images appear before putting the phone to sleep its throughout the whole phone.
[HTC One S] KillaHurtz:
If you're still in the buyers remorse period just get a replacement :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] boykioy:
If anyone wants to make themes for the new cm9 theme chooser, here it is the androidian one. Just replace any icons you want inside the theme.

http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/misc/Androidian.apk

thanks to fitsnugly .
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:
What does this mean exactly? I have 11 themes that i wouldn't mind sharing with everyone running anything ICS but I'm only one person... Would this somehow do this?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] boykioy:
If you had made a theme for the CM7 then you must know that the them chooser cannot them many of the aspects fo the rom, like the lockscreen for example. Your themes cannot be implemented in full in the them chooser, but you an try it if you want.

Extract the apk with winrar or winzip, replace the icons you want with the ones from your themes, zip it, rename it to .apk instead of .zip. Put it the apk manager, and extract, zip and sign. Not that hard.

Good luck
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:
Thanks... I figured it wouldn't theme every aspect of a ROM... But it's certainly a start... And I've only been theming since February or so and I've only themed ROMs never something like this...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] TH3JUNK13:
I've been trying to squish your HCS theme icons into the holopurple cm9 theme all morning :D

I'm sure you could have it done DAYS before I finish with this one ;)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:
maybe ;)

i just decompiled it... gonna have to see if i can get it later on tonight or maybe in the morning... gonna need a tester since i don't have this CM9 stuff on my phone to test it on...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] DaXmax:
Give up CNA for a minute. Get into the future theming, cm9...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:
lol... i haven't really been theming since i moved... i'd LOVE to have a base theme that can be applied to any device running this "theme chooser" feature... hopefully this thread will help with where to start on that! i'd actually prefer a stock template to work on... and just from a quick glance at the decompiled apk, it looks like there's A LOT of renaming i'm gonna have to do :(
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] DaXmax:
+1 but i cant able to find the stock template...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] LynXT:
does not work the download page

This image appears
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] shane6374:
It's also been merged into AOKP so I'm sure CNA and some of the others will follow suit.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Dorilife:
Yes, AOKP/Gummy/Vicious have the T-Mobile theme engine also.:D

Hi Guys,

i'm using Revolution HD.

i do like the default ICS email Application a lot better then the Sense one.

is there a way to add it? an perhaps, i dare to say, its widget?

thanks a lot in advance....
[HTC Sensation] yaron316:

change permissions to 644 (or rw, r, r - it's the same)

reboot. it works + adds the widget.

Hi

I just flashed the newest leak ICS UCLD3. The new release seems to be smoother than the ICS UCLC5 leak but now I'm constantly getting a message..

"AT&T Software update...Communication failed" Is there a way to stop this action from constantly trying to communicate w/ the AT&T servers?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Tom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
i think if u change ur date and time to a couple years in the future, then try to run the software update, then revert back to the original date and time u will be fine since its not suppose to check more then once every 24hrs. or u can do a factory reset and see if that helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TFS808:
Thanks for the quick reply. I was about to go back to GB. :mad:

One more question if I may...The dialer lag is getting to me. Only happens in ICS both UCLC5 and UCLD3 but not in GB. Any options other than to dl a dialer app from the market?

Thanks again for all your help!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] EvoXOhio:
I flashed DaGra8s AOSP App kit. It gets you AOSP dialer, Messaging, Calendar, and Contacts. They look and function better and are much faster than the Samsung apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] fish72:
Hello all,

I have tried EVERY SINGLE ROM on my mini galaxy for the past 4 months.

They only stable rom I found without unwanted FC is the Minimod X final.

It is so hard to find a stable non-stock rom these day while everyone ports the CM7/9 rom and changes it in some way.

Have you thought about that the CM7/9 rom is not STABLE enough to build on it ?

I wish there will be other updated stable roms that does NOT based on the buggy CM7/9 roms
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
CM9 is in beta stage, not only for our device, but as an OS in general so no question about that. as for CM7, hmmm, it may be buggy for you but not for all. kittenlinux build's and mebitek's builds are pretty stable for me. Also, that is the essence of development, resolve all unwanted bugs.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] fish72:
Thanks for your reply Kitrax. When I'm talking about instability, I mean a FC few times a week in a moderate use of the phone.When you say pretty stable, Can you use the build for a week without a FC ? The only one that stood up to this to me is the Minimod X final......
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
Yeah, I can use these ROMs without FC for a week. Well, that would depend on the apps that are force closing on your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] droidface:
have you tried MORe rom? it's stable for me...

and about cm7, I think that's because it isn't the final release...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] fish72:
Thanks again kitrax and droid,

I just installed the latest kittenlinux rom, Since kitrax said that it worked quite stable for him (I saw that meibtek's rom has still some gps problem which was fixed in kittenlinux's rom).

I hope that this rom with the latest full Gapps will work as stable as i expect a rom to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] droidface:
yeah kitten's build is good enough for unfinished cm7 project

good to hear that :D

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] lonestrider:
Of course! It's still on the beta stage!

I think the baseband version you are using do some different effect.

Some baseband isn't good to some custom ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] fish72:
i've been using the CM 7.2 RC1 since yesterday and it is stable up to now.

I've installed all my programs (premotedroid, Circle battery wodget, Extreme alarm clock, 3g watchdog), And up to now it didnt gave me any FC.

Hope it'll keep working stable. Will let you know whats up.

Thank you folks for your help and insights
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] xenv1:
i like squad's ROM but the CMobile is buggy! Long time no see him to fix this! (on madteam)

talking about stable cm

didn't you tried official cm for tass
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] fish72:
I've tried the official CM 7.2 that came out few weeks ago, But didn't found it stable.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yackovsky:
Strange, I was using a lot of roms too, and I experienced bugs and fc's only on few of them... maybe You just expecting too much from this little device, especially when you get a lot of fc's even on stock rom...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] janmae:
it is simple....read all comments in rom thread,and if u find a single word said buggy...dont even flash it,better stay what u r on....peace:p
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] D-dy:
Cm7 more powerful than stock...

Afaik, cm7.2 by mebitek/kittenlinux was stable! Never gave me fC :p

I like the rom that I can play with, so I'm back to cyanmobile

My battery has been acting up. I went to T-Mobile and the girl there told me to call HTC and tell them that my phone won't charge since the battery insurance is good for only a year. I'm going to call in the morning, but if they say to send it and what not do I have to unroot before sending it ?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DudeNo:
I acquired a Samsung Galaxy S2 for T mobile from a friend today and he said he flashed a rom for a European version of the phone or just a rom that wasn't meant for the phone. He told me before that it vibrated and stuff, but ive been tinkering wit it and havent gotten any type of vibrations or anything. I was wondering if I have a complete brick or something that I could fix and make into a win situation? Is there any steps I can do to see if it's a brick or not cause I'm not familair with this phone that much.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] new ion?:
Look around, many others have done something similar
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yoft1:
Chances are it's hardbricked if he flashed a ROM for the i9100 (the international version). The T989 (our phone) an the i9100 are completely different phones, they only share a name for marketing reasons. To double check that it's fully bricked, see if you can access clockworkmod recovery or download mode.

For CWM recovery, hold power + volume up + volume down until the phone vibrates, then let go of power and continue holding volume up + volume down until the recovery menu appears.

For DL mode, hold volume up + volume down while plugging the phone into your computer with a USB cable (make sure the other end is in the computer first). If you get the download mode screen, you can ODIN back to stock.

If neither of those work, your phone is hard bricked and there's essentially nothing you can do to recover it. You can always try to send it back to Samsung if it's under warranty.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] carleone90:
So theres no way to getting out of hard bricked? i bought a usb jig but didnt get me in download mode.. i installed a 1900 rom as well and im screwed now! it connects to the computer and it reads under odin but is there anything i can do to fix this ??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] manojcitc:
if you are able to go into download mode flash stock rom with odin...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
Most likely it's bricked hard.

Only repair is jtag services, there is a link somewhere about $80 to fix.

Flashing 9100 = hardbricked. If the sucker vibrates when holding power, you might have a chance by doing some sdk stuff
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] VoiD_Dweller:
What he said
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Racing19969:
Hey all, I will be able to do JTAG repair for these Phones within another week. If you are hard bricked and need the repair I will be offering a discount to XDA members... The going rate online is anywhere from $50 to $80 plus shipping. Feel free to PM me for more info.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DudeNo:
I'm guessing it must be hard bricked cause I've been charging it an nothing has happened an when I hold the power button down I get no vibrations or any type of interaction
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xcrazydx:
Yeah it's hard bricked. Get it jtag'd
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DudeNo:

About $50

[HTC Sensation] You_got_owned123:
I'm new here. Looked around for a poll or something but couldn't find it - Sorry if there's already a post similar to this; feel free to delete this one(:

So my question is, what are your opinions on what is the fastest and smoothest Sense 4.0 ROM. I'm currently running Elegancia. It's pretty nice except that it lags often and slows down. I'm not looking for much eye candy or bt. I've been looking at CoinDroid. Anyways, what is your recomendation on the fastest and smoothest 4.0 ROM?

- Thanks in advance(:
[HTC Sensation] JustinRawr:
I'd say CoinDroid. It's very stable and smooth for a Sense 4 ROM. Good support as well. Frequent updates.

Hi guys,

My TF101 has a stock US9.2.1.21 and I've downgraded to 9.2.1.17 followed Wolf's instructions. Since I don't have a custom recovery therefore I've used ViperMod (option 1) to root and rooted successfully. Afterwards I install CWM recovery by installing RomManager from Play store and flashed the CWM. However when I turn TF off, press and hold Power+volume down and then press volume UP, I still can't boot to recovery. I've enclosed a screenshot here, please you guys help me to deal with it.

Looks like an incredibly convenient Titanium Backup replacement. Not sure it'll save your Angry Birds progress, but if all you care about is getting your apps back this looks awesome. Basically just builds a flashable zip of all your apks that you just flash after flashing your rom.

No idea how it'll work with Amon Ra or the Rezound though! Gonna give it a try.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
after just buying titanium for 6.58, thats the only backup app i'm ever using...lol
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Joke's on you for paying 6.50 for a dreadful GUI!

:p

But seriously, this app looks really convenient, and free.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
meh, i've been using titanium since the eris days..i should've bought it earlier, especially after the pro version gives you the ability to fast install all your apps without having to hit "install" for every single one....AND dropbox uploading and syncing is awesome.

eh, it was free to me since i used my $100 gift card that i got for winning a motorola contest ;P
[HTC Rezound] graymonkey44:
There's nothing wrong with the UI.
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Dude, the UI is the worst. Titanium is awesomely functional, but I've used it for years, and hated using it for years. It's cluttered and labyrinthine.

Anyway, App2zip worked exactly as advertised on BootManager! I think I've found my replacement.
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
use what u wana use but Titanium is the best and its been proven to have plenty of features and i have no problem with the UI... also u can back up data with TB i dont think this app does that
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
It does backup data.
[HTC Rezound] Hag77:
Tested it yet? I'm interested if it keeps data and works on this device.. I've flashed three roms in three days and yes- repeatedly hitting "install", "done", "install", "done" in tibu is getting a lil old..
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Yeah, I've tried it twice now. Works, backs up data, and is a hell of a lot simpler and more elegant than TiBu.
[HTC Rezound] Shiznit14:
Titanium backup.....

Just wanted to point out you can create a .zip file with Titanium backup that works exactly the same way. That has been a feature for over a year, just putting it out there..........
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Yeah, but then you have to use Titanium Backup!
[HTC Rezound] Shiznit14:
Touche! lol
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
well then good... ill try it out and see whats better
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
I don't get why you hate the ui of titanium.. there's nothing wrong with it. everything is where it should be and om never left asking myself why can't I find or do something.
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:
Titanium backup rocks! I tried the app2zip app and it has more visual fluff but ZERO options. Tibu is a powerhouse! App2zip is definitely a downgrade.

Edit. Just saw the option in tibu to extract apps from a nandroid. Thats awesome!
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Oh my god people, this isn't about Titanium, this is about App2zip.

If you can't see that Titanium looks like crap, nothing I say will convince you.

But just as a point of comparison:

Go Backup

Titanium Backup

Titanium is cluttered and messy. Yes, it works. It works really well. It's the standard for a reason. But have fun learning how to use it staring at a pile of menus, buttons, text colors and icons. It looks like crap.
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
so your saying u would rather have less information available when looking at the different files? bc thats the only thing i see different.. TB shows you more information
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Yes, I want less information. I don't want my eyes to glaze over trying to process extraneous, useless information. And not only that, if I want the information, I want it to be displayed in a coherent, cohesive manner.

For example, what the hell are all those icons on the right? Smiley face, M symbol, check mark.

I shouldn't need a secret decoder ring from a Cracker Jack in order to use an app.
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:
@tekhna - I appreciate the tip on the new app i just feel it's lacking features and i prefer tibu.

Edit. Your title and op says its a titanium backup replacement. Thats probably why people are making the comparison.
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
ohh ok well i see but im the opposite i love the information... the icons mean a lot they tell you wether the app has been backedup if its a system app and if its linked to the market ... all kinds of things
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
.how do you make the apps into 1 zip with titanium? I have had pro version for a long time and never stumbled on it. All I found was a way to creat a zip for the titanium app.

Sent from my Rezound
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
yea thats the only one i found too... but i rember i used to be able to do all apps so maybe they got rid of that option
[HTC Rezound] Po1soNNN:
Go into titanium. Menu then more then create update.zip
