I am not afraid of ODIN. I have done that in the past but I did have a huge problem with the GS1 installing an older kernel. I just about bricked the phone. I had to use the HEimdall or what ever it was to get back in it.

On these phone with a custom kernal and rom will it automatically unlock the phone? I am just afraid of using the wrong one and in this particualr section I am sure as to where to go. It doesn't give a whole lot of detail and with the cryogen mod thing it is getting places where I am not sure if I want to really try that. I would but the information is spaced out so much I am afraid of missing something and buggering everything up. What should I have to worry about when doing this?

Also it is the software unlocking I am having problems with.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
Custom kernal will not unlock the phone to be used on a network other than at&t.

Software unlock? assuming you mean using s/w to unlock the device, yes thats the way i understood this thread. I cant really tell ya much about that, but i have heard that its easy and works fine, which is why you should go back to stock first, to get rid of anything messy leftover from using an old rooting method.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aviseqdas:
You get this error when you dont reboot the phone after installing busybox and Herolz Galaxy s phone. Just reboot and try. Same happened for me :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
You're probably fine as is. Look in Settings | About Phone. If you are stock UCKH7 it should read something like -

Android version 3.2.4

Baseband version UCKH7

Kernel version 2.6.35.7

AT&T hardware handles different frequencies than T-Mobile hardware. It's a limitation of the phone's capability to receive the signal.

Try this thread for unlocking the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stevewasthere:
FIXED!!

Stupid busy box was causing errors. re-downloaded it from the market and installed. Whoalla, unlocked. WTF.... Stupid phone. HAHAHA Thanks...

Trouble Unlocking After Odin Root of

I rooted my phone using Odin and the Siyah-v3.4.2-nomswap-I777.tar file in the PDA. The phone passed, and it reloads with the triangle on the start up as expected. However, it then says "enter network lock control key". It has nothing to do with the sim, as the sim works in another phone. I have done the process several times, running odin back to the original factory settings with I777UCLE5_I777ATTLE5_I777UCLE5_HOME.tar.md5

Could someone please tell me how to get the phone unlocked?

I have done this process before with another i777 phone, and it worked fine.

[HTC EVO 3D] johnmarshton:
Can you get the evo 3d to have zero shutter lag?Can you do this bi modding the software?

I had both the Sensation and the Evo and I can confirm that Evo is more laggy than the sensation when taking photos?did anyone experience this also?
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
This is normal. Some devs tried implementing zero shutter lag but it didn't go anywhere. With 1 kernel that seems to not be allowed here improved the speed... We have found that the lag is pretty minimal if you turn off the camera review - as in you would have to open the pic separately to view it.

[HTC Inspire 4G] caddyman1989:
Hello,

I have an HTC inspire 4g. I have an otterbox defender on it and love it. But the phone is getting to where it needs a cold reboot every once in a while. And the otterbox isn't ideal for taking on and off. So I was wandering if anyone knew if there was a case I could that protected the outer rim around the camera lense but wasn't just a back cover that left the front exposed and unprotected.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Johnn_ares:
I've been using a silicon case for over a year, and it's working fine for me. I spent 15 dollars at an accessory at the mall. I never put my phone in high risk situations and have only dropped it a few times
[HTC Inspire 4G] caddyman1989:
Do you know the brand name of the case?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Johnn_ares:
Sorry no it's just a generic off brand

I wouldn't think it would be that hard to find on you like. I always have the best luck with authorized retailers the have better cheaper cases than the factory stores.
[HTC Sensation] htcsens2:
This is a guide for noobs by a noob to get from a stock gingerbread T-mobile (USA) Sensation 4g to a *rooted* version of the recent T-mobile ICS update (with working wifi calling etc.).

With root you can install your own tethering apps and lots of other things. By following the steps you also get to install other custom ROMS.

I did a lot of (overwhelming) reading and some question asking (see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1658100 , Thanks to GROGG88 ) to get to this point.

This update has been done to Qty.3 sensation 4g phones, using 2 different windows 7 pro 64bit PC’s so it looks pretty repeatable so far.

So here we go….

Preparation

If you are talking about the games optimized for PLAY, sadly no. And Xperia Play is HDPI and LWW is mdpi, so sometimes some games go 'out' of the screen and you don't have some buttons. E.g I got this problem with NFS hot pursuit on my MiniPro

I apologize for my noobish question, but how are the ASOP builds starting to roll out w/o source being released?? I understand you can compile aosp builds on your own, but doesnt the source code provide all the tweaks you need to optimize it on a device to device basis?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] simple man:
There's no ICS source for the Captivate either, but we are officially supported on CM9. Very glad! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drksilenc:
if there is good source from another device that is near this one then porting could be possible.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
The short answer is a combination of two things based on what I can tell.

They are actually using the existing kernel for the leaked ICS roms and beginning to dissect them. As far as I know, the current AOKP roms being used are using either an unmodified original kernel from ULD3 or 'very slightly' modified/patched kernel from ULD3 with a few tweaks for overclocking support and whatnot.

As far as what is happening with the Captivate, I believe they are taking heavy sections from the Gingerbread source code and splicing it in to their ICS kernel and changing what they need to for ICS compatibility.

Also, similar devices that have ICS source code floating around can also be spliced up.

I am only speculating here since I am not involved in the projects, if someone knows more than I, feel free to speak up.

Well done!Thanks for sharing.
[HTC One S] rault18:
No prob! Glad u enjoyed it!
[HTC One S] FunkyELF:
LOL, "sponsored by beats audio so the audio on this one is definitely way better".

Stopped watching the review right there. You know Beats Audio is just an equalizer setting right?... just on/off and you can't even control anything. DSP manager on a custom ROM is better. Beats is basically nothing. Try looking it up and finding out exactly what it is, that information is nowhere because it isn't anything. Its not a special DAC, not special hardware, not a certification of signal to noise ratio, it is just a label that they print on the phone and a ****ty equalizer that you turn on and off.

Also, the HTC One S has audio problems on the stock ROM, who knows if its caused by Beats or not. For example, in iHeartRadio sometimes it goes silent between songs and you have to either skip or thumbs down the song to get the audio playing again. CM9 / AOKP don't have this problem... not sure if thats because Beats is gone.
[HTC One S] rault18:
OK let me start with a disclaimer

My review is my opinion which is the way I perceived the device. Also this review is not for tech junkies like us . But for the average user as well. I cant go into details to them what why and how beats work on the phone In my case it was better and I liked it , and believe it delivered better audio performance. ( only better thing than the nexus)

The issues you are experiencing haven't happen to me (thanks god) nor I've seen a large group complaining about it but I could be very wrong

I found that the Audio quality and loudness on the S is better than my nexus . I decided to test it also against my friends nexus with a stock rom and I still liked the S more. It is an equalizer yes.. it gives better sound in my opinion ? Yes as well

Is it a software or hardware issue ? I couldn't tell however I am not affected by it . But I hope they get it figured out!

Thanks!
[HTC One S] kolyan:
Beats is crap. The stupid icon pops up even time navigation instructions are read. I also do mostly audio streaming to car or home avr and both have much better equalizers then Beats. With Beats ON music actually sounds much worse.

Does it sound better then Nexus in speaker phone mode......yes it does, can you make Nexus sound the same.....probably with DSP Manager

I am glad I don't have Beats
