Me too. I have Tasker profiles set up to switch brightness to full when I open the gallery app or the YouTube app...exit conditions set brightness back to auto.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yohannie:
Exactly same here. Also, I noticed that on Auto Brightness and lower brightness levels, my phone is for some reason darker (looks like less backlight) than my friend's. If this is a software issue (which I hope to God it is), then maybe it will be fixed with the next update.

[LG Optimus 2x] Ph03nix95:
I have a few questions about Baseband/RIL. I am currently running CM9 by Owain and have baseband version 1035.21_20110725. Everything is working fine (3G etc), just battery life is quite bad as mentioned below.

I have heard that the baseband and RIL should match or something like that, is that true? and this may also improve reception/battery life or something?

Does RIL change with every different ROM and baseband stays the same? If so, should I change baseband or RIL?

What do these actually do and what effect do they have and can changing them cause problems to your phone like bricking or anything?

Also, my battery life while using the phone seems to be quite horrible (about 2m for 1%, with only wifi on) and I am not sure why, on idle there is not problem, is this normal?
[LG Optimus 2x] darrenxes:
Baseband and Ril shd match to get the most effective signal...

Baseband can only be change thru nvflash.

Ril can be change thru rom change, update ril or getril app found in the mkt.

Cant recommend on a single most best baseband and ril match becoz it based on network location and provider. U need to experiment to get the most ideal for ur signal, download speed, call quality, battery life.

ur battery life is pretty decent. toggle to 2g if no usage to prolong battery life
[LG Optimus 2x] Ph03nix95:
Should I be changing the baseband or the RIL though to match the other and how exactly do you change the baseband, links to nvflash or a tutorial or something?
[LG Optimus 2x] r0main78:
Get the app GetRIL from the market, the app will purpose you the RIL corresponding to the baseband you got.

Like darrenxes said, the best baseband will depend on your provider, you have to test the one which suit the best, you can flash the baseband through smartflash. But be sure you run a Nandroid backup before flashing the new baseband.

I'm testing the BB420 with RIL1120 on Owain CM9 Build 58 / Harsh Kernel and it runs smooth, signal is great, GPS fix is quick, and battery life is great when toggled in 2G.
[LG Optimus 2x] darrenxes:
use getril to match ur baseband first.

[LG Optimus 2x] theevilworm:
Hey, does anyone know if restoring from a nandroid backup restores the baseband aswell? Cause flashing with SmartFlashTool wipes the phone. I made a nandroid backup I want to restore but if it would revert the baseband it would be pointless.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ph03nix95:
Yea I also want to know whether a nandroid backup actually restored the previous baseband or not.

Also, so basically first I should try getril from market and match the ril with my baseband and then if i am not getting good reception with that, then try flashing different basebands?
[LG Optimus 2x] theevilworm:
Hello, I have tried it out and no, performing a nandroid restore does not restore the previous baseband.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ph03nix95:
I have this weird problem with reception. Normally my phone has pretty good reception, with alright 3g etc, but sometimes when i look at my phone it just has no service. When I reboot the phone, reception seems to come back and sometimes even without rebooting it seems to come back. I have no idea why that is? Could this be because of baseband/ril or would it be something else as I seem to have decent reception most of the time?
[LG Optimus 2x] darrenxes:
Nandroid backup cannot restore baseband.

Try this for network drop

Uncheck automatic network time

Install clocksync from playstore. Use this app to auto sync time

Set to auto GSM/wcdma

Works for me.

Hey guys i was wondering if any of you might know whats going on here,

I just flashed AOKP milestone 5, the new gapps and franco's m3 kernel and everything is great and its very fast.

However my gmail is no longer pushing notifications to me. I have it on sync and set to give me notifications but it doesnt work. I have to manually go into gmail and press refresh to see my new emails. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the market but it still doesnt work.

My facebook messenger app also isnt popping up notification like it used to. Basically nothing is coming up in my notification bar.

I dont know if this is a rom or kernel problem or has to do something with how i restored everything with titanium backup

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for the help

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] misterhoney:
I have bought a new Xperia Ray ST18a from Telus (Canada). I have successfully unlocked it using a code, called my voice mail without a problem. Then I downloaded Sony's PC companion to verify if the phone's software was up to date. When the update was finish, I tried to make another call and noticed the "Emergency Calls only. No Sim Card" message.

I used the Sim card in my old phone and it worked. I used another Sim card in my Ray, the 'No Sim card Message' was still there.

I sent the phone to Sony for repair and came back with again the same problem.

Anybody have a clue what is wrong with the phone?

The SIM lock Menu it shows:

They have network locked your phone again. As for the SIM problem, maybe the phone/SIM contacts aren't clean enough. I don't think it's related to the network lock/unlock.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] misterhoney:
Thanks for the reply.

I have checked the contacts and even applied pressure on them when the phone was restarting. Same results.

How can you tell it's network locked again?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:

Does any other SIM card work?

According to the Network value, seems like the SIM-lock is still there...Is the phone branded?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] misterhoney:
Yes it's a branded phone.

I tried another SIM card from another cell phone and I'm still having the same message.

I bought an unlock code from a unlocking service from the internet.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] misterhoney:
Learned something yesterday!

Not all cell phones can prevent the insertion of the SIM card the wrong way!

On the Ray you can insert the card the wrong way and you will be able to install the battery and cover perfectly. I have re-inserted the SIM card in the right position and the "No SIM card" message disappeared and was able to unlock it with the same previous code. All is now fine.

I don't mind looking like a foul and hope this thread will help somebody else.

Thank you for trying to help.

Well you accidentally got a thanks, so you're welcome. lol

It doesn't really matter other than all these amazing ROMs we currently have will be even more amazing once the Devs have source to work with. That's the only part that matters and the 3D is a crap phone (I have experience with it so I can claim that).

Have the 3D forums been full of leaks? I mean we've gone through a ton of them so it would seem (to me) like surely we'd be one step closer, and maybe we are. I just noted that they now have a confirmed time frame whereas we've heard nothing concrete.

The E4GT is a better phone than the Evo 3D, but you'd have to be a fairly monumental idiot to say its a crap phone. I own both of these phones, my Evo is running a fully functional leaked ICS build. The 3d feature is useless but you obviously don't have to use it. Stock vs stock the Evo is pretty bad but with one of the custom roms and all the HTC sense 3.0 bloat removed and a highly optimized kernel the Evo pretty much matches or exceeds the raw performance of the GS2 in real usage and benchmarks (7500+ antutu, 4700+ quadrant, etc). The build quality is also far superior to the E4GT which is really plasticy and cheap feeling.

However the GSII camera is light years ahead of the Evo, the screen also looks way better despite its inferior resolution. The GSII's GPU also beats the Evo's by a good amount.

Yes the GSII is better, but the Evo is far from crappy.

On a side note, I also tried a leaked sense 4.0 build on the Evo from the one s. I've always been into AOSP but I gotta admit sense 4.0 is pretty nice. Considering I felt that sense 3.0 was the worst of all the overlays out there, HTC did well with the new Sense 4.0. Very nice looking, sleek and very very fast unlike sense 3.

Yeah I'm definitely far from a monumental idiot and I've owned a few HTC's, loved the OG EVO but I stand by my claim that, in my experience, the 3D was crap and I dropped it the second the E4GT came out. But I've made this claim countless times and I continue to stand by it. It was thick, clunky and the gimmicky 3D didn't impress. Oh, and one more thing and this bugged me even with the OG EVO, I HATE their protruding camera lens. So there. lol (now I'm using humor, don't get fussy)

If you like the phone then more power to you. Now I'm really going to bed. Night all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poweroutlet:
Whether or not you think its "crap" or not is irrelevant, it doesn't change the fact that the Evo's hardware is far from outdated and indeed very robust. It's a solid well rounded phone. I also see absolutely no logic in your statement that because the 3D didn't impress, that it somehow makes the phone worse. It's an extra feature, nothing more. If you don't use it, the phone is like any other smart phone. The Evo 3d isn't a slim device but its by no means thick or clunky as you say (its 12mm vs the 10mm of the E4GT). You loved the OG Evo (which also has the protruding camera as you metioned) but claim the Evo 3D is garbage, yet the Evo absolutely destroys the OG Evo in everything from pixel density, build quality, camera, performance, Ram, software features, etc.

You are entitled to believe what you want of course but to any reasonable person it is quite nonsensical. It's like saying because the One X or Evo 4G LTE is out now, it makes the Galaxy S2 crap.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poweroutlet:
This is a good point. Though why aren't you interested in the Evo 4g LTE? I think my only concern with that phone is it looks kind of weird. They should have made it look like the One X.

If you're using it stock, the Evo 3D is pretty terrible due to HTC rubbish crapware slowing the phone down and sucking away the battery. The difference in my Evo from stock to the current ICS build is just night and day. The stock battery life was pretty unbelievably bad but with the latest custom builds (and even the leaked ICS build) the battery life is fantastic. The lighter UI aided by GPU rendering is pretty buttery smooth. Too bad HTC didn't have the sense (see what I did there? :D) to do the software properly from the start.

My E4GT has been completely stock but after using ICS on my Evo so much I don't think I can handle GB anymore. I'll probably try one of the leaked ICS builds for the E4GT. If they perform as well as the stock rom and give as good battery life I'll be pretty pleased.

My point was, with all the leaks we've had for the E4GT I felt sure we were close to getting our hands on source. I read a LOT of android related sites and I've heard nothing about leaks pouring out for the 3D, so to read that it's possibly going to get ICS first seems a bit out of whack.
