[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Quite a few years ago back when cameras on phones were starting to become the norm, a friend was looking in a phone shop. He was looking at a fairly basic phone which didn't have a camera. A salesman then came over and told him that whilst the phone he was looking at didn't have a camera, he could download one afterwards. The same salesman told me that the phone's screen could display 64k colours. I told him that I don't think I could even name 64 colours, let alone 64 thousand. Fun times.

I heard you can download a bigger battery onto your phone too (full instructions here)

And back to the correct answer........ its the hardware thingy, so suck it up.

Samsung Galaxy SII plus has Zero Shutter lag.

Its the same hardware with nfc :P

Maybe we will be able to port it over S2.

Fingers crossed
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andiprbwo:
No, s2 plus has different hardware, it's not using exynos chip and the camera sensor is different too.. so yeah, we just can't add zero shutter lag to old s2 cause it's hardware thingy.. (though it would be great if it can lol)
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
As the title states, I have a possible brick on my hands, the phone isn't mine and the person who uses it doesn't really mess with overclocking and such, it was running Miks rom GSM, and not overclocked (running at 1.18ghz) No overvolt either, it is an s-off device, before this it was a fully functional sensation.

Basically what i'm told is that the phone was in use and it just switched off.

No lights, no power, have tried three batteries, about 10 chargers, different usb cables, can't get to bootloader or recovery, adb won't recognise it, it appears to be just a dead phone, personally i'm guessing it's the mainboard but i thought i'd ask anyway, there are no signs of water damage or major droppage.

Popped over to dexters unbricking project but as i said the phone won't come on so it won't work.

As i said before it's not my phone, but i'd like to do a friend a favour if i could.

Any ideas?

Before anyone asks, I

cannot

get to the bootloader or recovery. :)

Many thanks.

Hope you get it working..but it's becoming quite common and no one seems to have any ideas. Mine did the same thing...and I just had the motherboard repaired!

On such a popular Rom it is a bit unsettling.

Is it firmware, radio, kernel, or rom?

I hadn't seen this many Sensations die like this back on Gingerbread.
[HTC Sensation] newr:
I am not sure...seems to have happened on a few different ROMs...so maybe it's not a specific ROM? I just got mine back and rooted and S-off as I needed the root to unlock the simlock...but I am scared of installing any custom ROMs or radio etc....I am thinking maybe I'll just wait for the official t-mobile ICS update...
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
I'll be starting a thread to determine just that... I have my suspicions, but I'd like to know in one place what everyone was running.
[HTC Sensation] newr:
I was running ARHD 6.6.2 Just flashed the ROM.. and seem to flash fine, able to boot up. Even reinstalled all the apps...then while calling...had this long tone from the phone...and phone was unresponsive...I pressed power button.. and it turned off.

The first time..it actually turned back on....so I thought maybe it's an issue with reinstalling the apps. Then when I called again...after 30sec-1 min...same tone again...then phone turned off and never turned on again...Battery was 100% charged.

I updated the correct firmware since I was already using insertcoin ICS ROM for a while before changing to ARHD 6.6.2

I am scared of installing a custom ROM now....I have rooted the phone again, S-off, Clockwork, superCID....but I am thinking maybe I should just wait for teh official update for ICS and leave it as that.

Can I just to OTA update when it comes out?
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
Change your CID back to T-MOB010 and you can...

FWIW, what kernel were you running when it took a dump?
[HTC Sensation] newr:
I didn't install any custom kernel...I just installed the firmware as suggested.. and also the radio file that ARHD page says we should flash for T-mobile phones....

then flash the ROM as usual. Everything worked...the phone died while running the ROM.

So I need to change CID again to do OTA update? It's ok to leave it rooted, Clockwork, and S-off? Maybe I shouldn't have changed to super CID then?
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
You can leave it rooted and s-off (in fact you WANT to keep s-off), make sure your stock rom is un-modified, and you need to go back to stock recovery. If you leave superCID then it will not detect the update. It needs to refer to CID to find the correct update package for your device...
[HTC Sensation] newr:
I haven't modify the Rom that's on here now. So stock recovery means removing clockwork ? And changing CID...is there a tutorial to do that?..

Did you try flashing the new 6.6.4 ARID? Came out on May 6th

[HTC Sensation] newr:
But is it a HTC problem or a flashing custom stuff problem?

I don't know what I should do now...if I should just wait for ICS update...but now I'll have to remove superCID and somehow flash stock recovery or something

thanks for all your replys but what im looking for is the text highlight colour and when you press the keyboard letters etc. You get it on the energy rom. But it is way too buggy for me. So i need to know how to change those highlights. I know its either in the xml's or the drawable folders but i dont know where. So would need someone to point it out to me as to how to do this.

Thanks

Trace Color

I think what you are referring to is the Trace Color on the keyboard (correct?). If so, you can go into the Advanced Settings in the Keyboard options and change the Trace Color. Here's the path:

Settings > Language & keyboard > HTC Sense Input > Advanced > Trace Color

I hope this helps!! :)

I came across this while looking for an old modem I used to run. I thought maybe the rest of you guys may want to give some modems a go.

Link: http://www.veyka.co.uk/radios/

NOTE: Not all are infuse compatible but some indeed are, its trial and error folks. Just thought I'd post it for the convenience of the rest of the community.

sideNOTE: Try running a speed test to make sure modem switch was successful, upon my testing, it seems as if some modems would not change the text in the system settings, but speedtest says otherwise :) good luck!

ENJOY, and by all mean share and post about your findings :) I may eventually compile a list of all the compatible modems that can be found from this bigger list.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
If you are getting the force close upon the phone starting resulting in no service, this is normal with the ICS based roms. The last rebase joker did was on version 3.1. Installing anything after that only once will cause this issue. You can do one of three things to remedy this...

1: Use the Kitchen Sink Rom

2: Flash .3.1 first, then the latest version.

3: Flash the latest version, then immediately flash it again. Then install your gapps.

Lack of information what ICS what phone what method what firmware source .

Try taking battery out a short while .

That fails its a JTag paid for repair though it would be worth buying a USB recovery jig to see if you can get to download mode first .

Other route is service centre if it a legitimate failed KIES update .

Thanks. Sorry for not providing much information. Since im a still a new user, the website doesn't allow me to link pictures. This phone is my friend's. I did not check which firmware he was on. Probably 2.3.6 and the firmware I was going to flash is I9100XWLP7. When flashing it, Odin popped up a FAIL word so i take off the cable and reboot the phone by taking out the battery. Now the phone is in this condition~

That's forced download mode. Look under the battery for the correct model number and flash an appropriate ROM.

I fail to realise that this phone was different than the others. My bad. If how do i recover it then? Does this model has ICS?

Read, re-read. Everything you need is there.

Considering you don't say what the model actually is, how should I know if it has ICS?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austinjklim:
So all that I have to do is flash a 2.3.6 STOCK ROM that is Appropriate to the I9100G. So in this mode, ODIN is still able to flash ROM right?

Hello,

one of the thing that is holding me back from using on daily base any AOKP rom is the scrolling.

No matter what kind of combo of settings + kernel, it is never responsive as a Sammy rom.

Now would you, AOKP users, update me and to all other users that have the same problem when AOKP scroll will get smooth as sammyrom?

P.S. Hydrog3n 05.05 is very close to achive this...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hollow.Droid:
I've been on CM9/AOKP ROMs for a while now and thought I'd see the progress some of the official Samsung ROMs have made and scrolling was something I immediately noticed differences in. While Samsung scrolling seems nice and fluid it's almost too responsive and results in small movements when you're actually trying to select something. Perhaps it's because I'm now used to CM9 scrolling but I find it much more accurate and efficient when trying to find something quickly.

hey all,

i just got my Galaxy w, and the RAM is always at 315, give or take, after 2x "clear memory" i can get it to 260 - 270, and i noticed that the home screen takes about 3-5 secs to load after i press the home button from a browser or some other apps.

i used autokiller app to optimize the memory and with the strict settings i can get it to be in the 260-290 area.

is this normal ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] THE-E:
Stop using killer apps, it doesn't optimize your RAM because Android has an other way to manage memory than desktop PCs.

Download the Gemini Manager and deactivate the apps which don't have to be loaded as auto run.

You can also block/lock the bloatware.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pao9195:
what are the apps safe to dis abled to auto run? and what are the apps considered as bloatware and safe to remove? thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] THE-E:
You can disable all additional programmes beside the stock apps. Don't disable your Launcher, because this is required to boot up. Messengers like Facebook, WhatsApp etc. need autorun in order to push the new messages on your device. Which apps to disable depends also on your individual way of usage. Some use Locker apps etc. So you have to experiment a bit. If it comes down to stock apps, you will have to find out whether it is required for the ROM.

I don't use anymore the stock ROM, so my ROM doesn't contain bloatware.

You will have to search the net or this forum, I remember someone posting the apps which are required on the stock ROM.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
You have to wait for ICS to release in your region.

OR

You can root and edit build.prop i.e change the CDA string to the ones which have recieved the update and then update it using PC companion.

BUT the most simple way is to flash a ftf file using flashtool .

Flashing official firmwares do not require unlocked bootloader or root
