Jumping Jesus Christ on a pogo stick. We have enough "Hey ICS is Here!" threads in the skyrocket forum that turn out to be just another 2.3.6 rollout. Now we're going to have useless threads for other phones based on wrong information regarding official ics? :mad:

That T-Mob thread was closed by a mod and moved to the general ICS thread. We really need more of that in this forum. Ugh... smhu

Sorry all. I read some posts saying things like the update . zip contained 4.0.4 files so I thought it might be legit.

If i change my yakjuxw to yakju do get language pack somewhere? Im tired to wait for ota 4.0.4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bandit_knight:
What languages are you interested in? It seems that yakju has all the same languages as any of it's variants. Finnish language is definitely there as well as many other European languages.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] galaxy3-i5800:
Damn, if knew that earlier :) thanks! Now i can safely flash 4.0.4 manually.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Toxvaerd:
Are we talking about UI language or dictionary?

I was hoping to see a Danish dictionary in the yakjuxw update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sanien:
Believe Im running yakju Build IMM76I

I don't have Danish Dictionary in my 4.0.4 :-( Doesn't matter though as I bought Swiftkey X which is like a million times better than stock keyboard and predictions. Nice feature that it can support up to 3 dictionaries at any one time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] galaxy3-i5800:
Mine works just perfectly, no need for more dictionary this is enough for me.
[General Questions and Answers] ahmedalbidhany:
Hi,

I posted a question in forum about how to connect my A500 tablet to an Ad-hoc networking but after I did some search in the forum I found some steps to solve the issue and it is starting from rooting the device and finalizing by modifying a file in the following path:

sdcard/system/bin/wpa_supplicant

The problem is I can't rename the file (wpa_supplicant) also I can't copy the modified (wpa_supplicant) to the system/bin folder and a message appearing told that this file is "read only" and can not be modified or edited. Note that I used Root Explorer and Root Browser to explore the systems folders.

Please any one can help??
[General Questions and Answers] tmbdrogba:
You can't do this because your device is not rooted !

Use Root explorer don't give all super user privilege to your device
[General Questions and Answers] ghemay0904:
my device did not open what shall i do??
[General Questions and Answers] Coltie:
As the guy answered, you have to be rooted in order to do that.

Im not sure if you can root tablets, I have never had any interest in this direction because I dont have money to buy one.

But if you can you click on Root explorer, then click mount r/w , go to system/apps.

If it is mounting r/o you can delete system apps, I did that to my SGSII and my battery life lasts much longer.

You also have access to the files that created the applications, the ones you create in Eclipse.If you are a developer , you would know what I'm talkin about.

I dont know any other ways of doing this if you are not rooted and I'm almost sure its not possible, but good luck still.
[General Questions and Answers] Valkillmore:
You can root tablets, even the a500 as tough as it is to do so. I am running FlexReaper ROM on my Iconia a500 right now. It's flippin' awesome !

As far as editing the system files, the O.P. may need to actually mount the drive as r/w.

In ES File Explorer there is an option to actually mount the file system as 'writable'......(which will be rejected if the device is not rooted).

Do you see any similar option in the file explorer apps you are using ? If so, try to enable it. Just browsing 'up to root' is not enough......at least for ES.

I would use a root check type of app to verify you are up to a 'true root'.

As for custom ROM's the Iconia a500 tab requires flashing with a custom unlocked bootloader and custom recovery image like cwm, then installing/flashing the new custom or stock OTA ROM and any desired app/system packs if needed. The Iconia a500 is pretty tricky, but possible.

If you do go the way of custom ROM's, I HIGHLY recommend the FlexReaper RF-1_rv3 Custom ICS 4.0.3 ROM for users running the Acer Iconia a500 tablet.

Super smooth, and the only custom ROM that doesn't start with a funny snow screen when initially booting up. A couple other ROM's I tried would 'snow' like a bad hardware compatibility issue or something. Flexreaper seems like it is the perfect ROM for the a500, at least for me. :)
[General Questions and Answers] ahmedalbidhany:
many thanks for all help;

I used an app to check if my A500 is root and it is called "Root Checker" and told me that my device is rooted and I have root access but when I used Root Explorer or Root Browser apps I found there is a button to switch from (r/o) to (r/w) but when i bushed it never changed to (r/w) by the way I used a software to root the A500 from my laptop this software called ( ICS ROOT 2) if this software is not rooting so can anyone tell me about the right way to root my A500 device which it is working on ICS system bcoz really I confused!!
[General Questions and Answers] Valkillmore:
I actually used the same method so I am unsure as to what is going on here.

Will read back thru my research and see if I can figure something out. I am still new to this rooting/flashing thing, so I don't want to mislead you. I'd rather find my methods in tangible text online, rather than relying on my fuzzy memory.
[General Questions and Answers] Valkillmore:
I am not sure if this will help, but if you boot into recovery, check if there is an option to fix permissions. Run it then reboot normally.

Should be under the Advanced header.
[General Questions and Answers] cirzec:
IMOP,your Root explorer manybe havent get the right from super user.

Or,there is a problem with the root app.

My A500 rooted with the method instead of official Recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] ahmedalbidhany:
@ Valkillmore : thank you for your support I'll try this method and comeback again and post the results
[General Questions and Answers] infiniti_guy:
Root + SSH + remount

Here's how I do it.

1) Root your device.. lots of tips on this in the forums and the process depends on your specific phone model.

2) Install SU super user access.

3) SSHDroid - Install from market and allow root access (via SU)

4) Turn on SSHDroid and login to it via an SSH client from your computer (see putty for windows, Linux, Unix , and MAC should have it already).

> ssh root@192.168.1.xxx (for example)

5) remount the system drive (it is typically mounted as read-only

> mount -o remount,rw /system

Then you can go ahead and modify files under /system folder. Note: when you reboot, /system will be mounted normally (read-only).
[General Questions and Answers] snake100:
i had the same issue

[Defy General] azzure_syke:
Hi friends,

my defy usually stays below 36 C (even while wall charging)

recently, my charger went kaput.

when connected to PC, my defy shoots up to 40C - 41C within 3-4 minutes.

this happens even when the phone is connected only for charging.

this happens even with screen off and on airplane mode.

I'm using the correct Motorola cable.

i've tried to solve this by turning on and off usb debugging mode (read it somewhere).

Why is my defy heating up so much when connected to pc ? :confused:

How do i solve this problem ? :confused:

Please help.

I have strange issue with my battery notification on phone. I flashed this custom rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1480337 and was using it for like two days and everything was super smooth, responsive and so on but than I noticed that my battery percentage stays the same until I reboot the phone. I tried installing other roms and kernels, I even relocked the bootloader and went back to stock but no help. Please help guys.. I am attaching image of my battery use here which is constant with steps where I reboot..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Knight47:
switch off data,sync,wifi,bluetooth etc

Flash sirkays 6.1.1 ics kernel.In which you can use your phone for 2 days

Then flash hybrid rom(2.3)--I choose this rom coz it is lite and can run very smooth even in 800mhz

Then under clock your phone to 800mhz and use conservative governor
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tafarelli:
r

Thanks but I don’t think you understood me. Even though I do have battery problems concerning its life it is not the problem I am posting here for. The problem is that my phone is unable to measure battery percentage for some reason..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Knight47:
Nope, it's measuring correctly I think this problem is due to your kernel

Then measure your battery percent graph after u flash sirkays kernel and hybrid rom....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tafarelli:
r

No, I already tried different kernels and no change. I did now what you advised me and even though it is great rom it didn’t solve my issue regarding battery percentage being frozen..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Knight47:
Charge your phone to 100% (421)and then calibrate it....IT SHOULD WORK
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lokenok:
maybe reflash ics firmware or change battery or take it to repair center
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] kizsleg:
Just restart your phone.

When I plug my charger percentage remains frozen so can’t see wen it is fully charged. And when I try to calibrate it just says 0% battery spent for example when calibrating web browsing... It is as if some battery sensor burned out or something. Could that be the case?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tafarelli:

I can’t recharge my battery via charger. I bought this phone from some guy who gave me two batteries and charger (which can recharge without phone-see picture) with it which is not original sony erricson .One battery is orignal and one is not(see picture). So until now I used that charger to charge batteries and not via my phone. So since few days my battery percentage measurement crashed and my phone is unable to read battery status..

Any suggestions please

No it didn’t it just started couple of days ago.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tafarelli:
The thing is that I can read my battery status via hard battery calibrator script which means that sensors are still operating. but I cant recharge my phone via usb and I cant reed my battery status on it (in status bar). Also my battery time is extremely poor - like 12 hours max on very little usage (about 8 hours of me sleeping included) or like 3-4 hours of heavy usage. Is there any one here with knowledge to help me? Thanks in advance
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yujin_11:
It's most likely a hardware problem... I suggest you bring the phone your favorite Sony repair shop
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tafarelli:
Yeah but I can’t take it to repair without warranty which I don’t have so I am kind of screw there.. I don’t know I’ll try buying new original battery and stand-alone charger so I hope to at least solve my low battery life issue...

Just one more question - when you make factory reset do ALL of your files on internal memory get wiped? - I am thinking maybe some of them remain always and perhaps some regarding battery got corrupted..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yujin_11:
if I take the ALL in your question, that would be a yes, but you will end up with a brick. :)

Seriously factory reset restores the phone to its original state(bought from the store as brand-new with untampered and unopened box), it removes all phone settings so maybe there are files that will remain.

I've been thinking of the word chargemon(but I don't know what it is exactly), it maybe related to your problem.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tafarelli:
Can someone please upload his chargemon ray file so I can try replacing it and c if that helps? Many thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dacian:
This is going to sound like a total noob question, but is there a best way to install the battery cover for the GNex? When I first bought it, I got it on fine but I have since had to pull the battery during a frozen point. Now when I go to put it back on, I can never get it perfect, the bottom pins are both not in or only one of them is in, or they're both in but the top pins are out...:confused:

If someone could give me a little advice, it'd be appreciated...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
bottom first then run your fingers upward til they snap into place.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] killyouridols:
As far as I can see there is no delicate way. I always put the bottom in then run my fingers up the side and top. Sounds awful, but no damage done so far
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Start at the bottom first. You'll see that the bottom two tabs are more like "hooks", that need to be slid into the phone at an angle:

View attachment 1075829

Bend the cover a bit and slot them down in. At this point the bottom will be completely secure and only the top will be separated:

View attachment 1075830

Then just run your fingers up the two sides of the cover and "snap" each of the tabs in one at a time. Then do the two snaps at the top.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dacian:
Thank you for your tutorial, and it's great info but I can't seem to get it to work for me. I checked closely, there are no broken pins and I have both hooks which slide in but every time the butt (if the Hero had a chin, the Nexus has a butt) pins are sticking out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
Do you have thumbs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Okay... I pretty clearly laid this out. Take the battery cover in your dominant hand, phone in your hand off-hand. Line up the bottom tabs with the tabs on the bottom of the back plate. Slide them in and press down so they lock in. Bend the back a bit and slide in the "hook" tabs on the bottom left/right. After they "click", proceed to click in the tabs one "row" up at a time until they're all in place.

Seriously, don't make me make a video on this...

Yea...

Instead of using cm7 for my i9000 I flashed cm7 Mesmerize..accidentally

I can enter Download mode...can flash via Odin but the problem is that it just wont start the firmware.. it boots samsung animation but then it restart...over and over agzain. Now I flashed some stock firmware via Odin but it just restarts after loading samsung logo.

Some solutions to this?

Thank you very much.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubadude:
You will need to use odin with a stock ROM and the pit512 file.

In odin add all the files of the stock rom as usual then select the pit512. Once selected check re-partition.

now put phone in download mode and flash as usual.

CM based ROMS use a different file system from CM based ROMS.

Occasionally, as has happened to me, you may need to flash the ROM twice.

Once with pit & repartition checked and then a second time with no pit and repartition not checked.

---------- Post added at 02:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:31 PM ----------

I see your phone is a galaxy s2.

This is the galaxy s1 forum so while the procedure is the same as above I would confirm in the SGS2 forum which pit file you should use.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cristitamas:
Thanks for reply.

I did some flash via odin and cwm while I was waiting for an answer..

Now my Odin can`t see my Phone. Windows sees it as a gadget serial...but it wont appear in Odin. I have ClockWord Speed Recover Kernel. Heimdall kernel flashing works..

edit: and if I try to install any rom via CWM it says assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") =="galaxys" || getprop....... E:Error in/mnt/sdcard/CWM Firmware/update-cm-7.1-GalaxyS-signed.zip

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubadude:
I recommend a google search for that error. I've had something similar before a resolved it through a google search. Unfortunately can't remember where or how.

To get odin to see the phine i would download driver from sammobile.com and try to reinstall it otherwise try heimdall.

Best way to power up your phone (n1)

You don't have to insert/remove the battery several times in order to power on the phone. There is a reliable way to power on the phone every time.

1. Plug in the usb cable/charger with the battery in place

2. Wait until the charging light is lit.

3. Remove the battery, and as soon as the charging light goes out, reinsert the battery.

4. The phone will power up.

ENJOY;)
[Nexus One General] n1newbie:
thanx mate. visuals are always better than texts :D
[Nexus One General] tommert38:
Actually, I have to disagree on that. This text tutorial by soloviyko takes like 10 seconds to read and understand, while your video is on youtube (it has to load) and takes 22 seconds. Also, I see your led blink (mine doesn't blink) and sensors going crazy which you can't see with the naked eye. And there was already a video tutorial posted a while back. But I'm sure it will be helpful for some people, and that's more important :) Keep on going!
