[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Illuminatiii_X:
Hi all.

So, looking in the general forums I saw threads blow up because people thought that a maintenance thread was the ICS update.

Seeing that their had been a maintenance update I myself went to my settings and pressed "Software Update" only to see a message saying "No Firmware"

So I connected my phone wirelessly to kies and went on my browser to see if I could find something on there and there was nothing on kies either?

Can someone help me?

Here is what my about phone says:

Android Version: 2.3.6

Baseband Version: T989UVKL1

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.11

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UVKL1

and YESSSS. I am stock unrooted. I have rooted before but flashed back to stock in hopes of the ICS update like a week ago. Can someone please shed some light on this for me please? I am concerned that TMobile is like excluding me or something.

Granted, I came from a D1, but I love my Dinc2. I did a lot of going back and forth and checking out many of my options, but for me, it has the perfect balance of power and size. My friend got rid of his t-bolt, so I activated it for my wife - I hate the size of it. Granted, it's awesome for sitting on the table and watching video, but to use on a daily basis - kind of like trying to use my Nook for a phone lol.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dets34:
haha yeah the tbolt is rather large for my liking. I think ill have a lot of fun with the inc2 (im currently on a waiting list...we stirred up quite a storm in the x2 forum about calling Verizon and getting the inc2 for free). I'm looking forward to the OC'ing, vast amount of ROMS, kernels, and mods. It will be something new for the next 8 or so months until im off contract.

I had upgraded HD2 from WM to Android 2.2, however it's unstable lately (rebooted occasionally).

2) Is 2.3 more stable than 4.0 now?

Thx a lot.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangerwolf:
I'm totally new to my thunderbolt and i've just freshly rooted it after noticing bad battery life. Now i'm not totally new to flashing roms and everything, as my last phone was a Motorola cliq and i put c-mod on it.

But looking around i'm so lost on kernels and roms and radios. all i ahd to do before was just a rom. Its not hard installing them but matching what works with what is frustrating since i don't know where to start.

Does anyone know a good rom and or kernal that removes bloat ware and gives better battery performance? Any installation tips thats needed to get it on please let me know. I assume the order is rom and then kernal and then radios.

thanks!

EDIT: the rom that caught my eye was this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1227493
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Watoy:
Well, the way kernel and roms will react is different to every phone. The best kernels right now imo is imoseyons and ziggys kernel, you just flash them in recovery as you would a Rom. For radio, again different for everyone, you'll just have to test them all tbh, be careful with flashing them they can brick your phone and you flash them in the bootloader not recovery. If you need help with flashing just let me know, I think there's a tutorial stickied but its 1:30 am. Just my 2 cents
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
ROMs and Kernels

I usually stick to just flashing a ROM. Some come with good kernels and radios already in them. I would suggest using either thunderstick, BAMF, or cyanogenmod ROMs.

It's an old ROM, but I am currently running thunderstick bareback. I get great signal, battery life (after calibrating/removing battery stats), and my GPS works perfectly. It did remove all of the bloatware also.

You can install App Quarantine. I love this app.

It doesn't exactly uninstall certain apps, but it will keep them from running. Also once quarantined, it removes the apps from the app drawer. Just a nice way to save battery and clean up some space from apps you don't use.

Try flashing different ROMs and see what all you like.

If you insist on flashing different radios and kernels... as Watoy said, it can brick your phone if you're not careful.

Always make a backup and you should be fine!! Lol.

Good luck. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Steve Jobs®:
Hello fellow XDA members,

I have a Skyrocket and is planning on selling it to purchase a Nexus. Do you think that its a good idea? Also what are some of the issues with the Nexus? For example, on the Skyrocket, the screen has bleeds and blotches. I want to purchase the Nexus because of its big screen and its 720p so its clear for me reading. I do alot of blogging on wordpress and texting/mms. Would you recommend this phone or should I spend $400+tax = $444 on some other phone.

Keep in mind, I like the Nexus because of its originality compare to all the touchwiz and other UI that gets branded into the upcoming phones.

Im looking for the TRUE google experience.

Definitely looking forward to PHANDROID ROM, the tablet/hybrid rom. Looks EFFIN AWESOME!!!! MAINLY WHY I WANT THE NEXUS. LOLS. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
So... which do you want? Because if you want a true Google experience, you'll stay stock. And you'll only get that on the Nexus of course. If you want custom ROMs, sure there are plenty of those for the Galaxy Nexus simply because its easy to work with and has a strong hacker following, but ROMs aren't "true Google experiences".

That aside, I always find these threads quite hilarious. Why are you asking strangers what phone to get? Surely you are capable of reading about the current devices, seeing their prices, their good/bad points, and making a decision based on what works for

you

. After all, it's

your

phone. I have no problem with people looking for clarification on a certain feature or concern with a device, but the whole "should I buy phone B or phone C?" thread is getting really old.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Steve Jobs®:
I was only seeking an opinion, but never mind Ill just buy it.

Thanks for your input anyways.

I want the stock rom, but seeing the tablet/hybrid rom, it looks pretty impressive. Then again, I did leave the Skyrocket for the Pure Google experience.

Sorry, I am very indecisive. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
Pretty much what the guy above said. I'd say get the GNex. If you want "Pure Google Experience" which basically means stock then go with the GNex. It's obviously a step up from the Skyrocket and you are pretty much guaranteed an update to the next OS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Steve Jobs®:
Thanks, I just hate how Samsung lags on updates. All we get is leaks which contain bugs...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Wait, did you expect the pre-release software leak to not contain bugs?? :rolleyes: :confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ramabg:
As we can see in many forums, people like to overclock their phone to increase It's performance although overclock can increase battery live and may broke their phone. I think the increased performance can only be felt through benchmark software. The effect on the apps is almost negligible specially on high end phone (like our Note). Why do you overclock your phone and use overclock on daily usage (I understand if the reason of overclocking phone is for satisfaction) ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chasmodo:
Never saw the slightest reason to overclock my phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shaolin95:
Emulators and because I cannot resist getting extra performance. My captivate was a beast OCed.

Some people don't get it others do...like everything in life. Some don't get how we can live with a phone this big but we do...

;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] richlum:
On GB (LC2) I overclocked to 1.6gHz and it made everything run smoother (screen transitions, opening and closing apps etc.

On ICS I haven't felt the need to OC. It runs super smooth and fast as it is.

But maybe I'll get bored some time in the future and do it just for something to do... :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mFlorin:
I'm on stock GB LC1 CF rooted and I OC to 1.55.

Differences when I open apps. They open faster. And not that huge battery life drain because cpu stays at 1.55 a little time and for me the faster app opening matters

*only 2% at 1.55 (not even 1h from 40) - with CpuSpy
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hackerboi:
Its not bout whether its "important" or not... Its more like, If you can...then why not!? I did overclock my sgnote till 1.6ghz at 1.7 it would reboot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Mahoro.san:
Its like gettin more for less

Just as Overclock with your desktop, some take a step further by changing heatsink, better ventilation, water cooling, etc.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shaolin95:
Exactly, its just free power and if you are not dumb, you are not going to kill anything. This is not the dark ages of overclocking and those fears people seem to still carry from those times.

Take for example on GB running 1.6Ghz Nenamark2 scores me about 34fps or so..Damn close to my record with the Captivate which is 33.5! Then I ran 400Mhz on the GPU and boom..53fps...that is some kick ass gains there. While I will probably run 300Mhz mostly, if I find a game that needs the extra performance, I know I have it there so why not use it. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mFlorin:
Very true.

On my desktop I have an Intel i5 2500k (original 3300 MHz) OC to 4500 for daily use and when needed 5 GHz.

From 1 year and a half the CPU runs like this and never had any stability issue. And my PC kinda stays on A LOT.

So yes, we don't live in the dark ages of overclocking. Why people STILL HAVE FEAR OF OC!?

These days OC is very easy. Most of the times you can't broke a device / component from OC, because the "drivers" of some microcontrollers from your motherboard won't let you (a lot of protection these days :P )
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shaolin95:
Indeed. Plus if you are too afraid then dont push higher voltage, just OC with stock voltage as much as your CPU can do. :)
[HTC One X] dorianmayers:
usual story.

got an htc one x. flashed unlocked all going well. installed a bad rom (did not make a back up)

froze at splash screen. only late last night i found disaster recovery, so i put it to download and shut off the phone. boot back up this evening and tried to install recovery re-lock bootloader, clear cashe etc but. i got a low battery warning when trying to flash.

i didn't have the latest clockwork mod for charging installed; and battery is too low to flash to it.

this is where things get different. i used the boot loader to power down. i plugged it in to the wall to charge and i got this strange flashing red led(not orange) after about an hour it went solid red. had it charging from the wall socket for well over 4 hours now with the solid red led.

then all of a sudden the led starts to flash red again. so i disconnect the phone and try to boot.... nothing happens. try bootloader mode(power + vol.dwn) nothing.

i had to hold the two buttons then plug in the wall charger. then it went into bootloader. problem is it says relocked AND security warning....... and still after all that time charging. i still get low battery warning @ flash.

so i tried to turn off the device again using the power down option. two things happen here. 1)if the charger is in the screen goes black and instantly restarts to fastboot usb menu. 2)if it isnt in it will turn off and wont turn back on (splash screen or bootloader) until the charger is back in.

so what ive done as of now is plug it in to charge over night and hope this thread can shed some light.

additional info:

ruu version: 'RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.28.707.10_Ra dio_1.1204.103.14_release_257076_signed.exe

os version: 1.28.707.10

clockwork mod version: 5.8.2.7

plz any help would be invaluable

EDIT: just turned on phone about ten minutes after i plugged it back in to the charger (held power button alone) splash screen is back (yay!!) but still battery low when trying to flash in

fastboot usb. ima try in the morning after a full night to the charger. fingers crossed
[HTC Rezound] nes4r2:
Something has been bothering me for the past two days. After achieving S-Off I went ahead and unlocked the boot loader via HTCDev (Noob Tool). Now after reading some post it seems I made a mistake:eek: Hboot currently says : unlocked and S-off and I also installed JB Hboot now I kind of want to go back to locked but also S-off ,can anybody give me some good directions on how to achieve this?

Also the main reason for this is that I think i messed up my proprietary port on my rezound and might have to take it back in the future. Just moving the phone around with the USB cable attached to my PC I constantly get disconnect and connect sounds on windows and loose inter SD access and Ext also. I just want to take precautions if I really do take it back so I can replace it and just S-On again.

Also I think I twisted the port while it was attached to the USB cable cause I slept on my phone while charging :(
[HTC Rezound] fenixnr:
What do you mean LOCKED but s-off? LOCKED means S-On, no such thing as locked and s-off

[HTC Rezound] Hotweelz66:
I'm locked with S-Off. So I think there is such a thing.
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
Thats actually really wrong. S-Off is S-Off. Unlocked gives you access to additional fastboot commands (there are a couple hboots in the Dev section that do this without changing the locked status).

[edit]

Correction, you need to S-Off again to become locked. There is a thread in the dev section about setting S-On (it's easy).

CAUTION: Make sure you are on the stock hboot when you S-On. If you S-On the GB Eng hboot or the Juponutbear hboot, you WILL brick your phone.
[HTC Rezound] WookieFan:
Everything you just said was wrong. Normal state after achieving s-off is a locked bootloader. Locked won't matter because there are no longer any security checks. You can essentially flash whatever you want.
[HTC Rezound] Kennnny1:
Just to clear this up for you, if you unlocked after achieving s-off you will not be able to lock again without returning to s-on then back to s-off. If you try to lock now using fastboot oem lock you will end up "relocked".
