Which Rom do you use?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreww88:
Are you trying to do it on ICS with CWM? CWM has problems with nandroid backups on official ICS roms.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
If it is on ics roms, it's likely you're bricked, but without further info, no idea. And if it is under lpy or lpf, there is a work around if you're up to it but quite advanced.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
ICS backup doesn't produce bricks, restore does.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Good point, my mistake.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidmeister:
Im on the lpf official but rooted. I tried doing nanroid backup using the "temporary" cwm credits to dr ketan but failed. I dont think im brick coz my phone functions as normal.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Ignore my last post, I didn't read your issue correctly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Markuzy:
Are you using Voodoo OTA Root Keeper?

I heard from some Play Store comment that it might give problems in backups. Try disabling the root protect first if so.

Hello,

i am new to android, but i have now a HTC One X.

My question is i want to learn how to make apps and games for android.

For now i want only beginning tutorials steps to follow.

I am going to Employee management ICT school, but next-year I get lessons in application development.

So if you start now, i can only grow for later.

So i want to know, what must i need to start, what kind of applications/dev kits etc. (price doesent mather)

and some steps in the good way.

Thanks in advance,
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] APPeretz:
I suggest you to learn java very good. after you understand the OOP and other java principles, learn the Android SDK(if you understand the principles, its will not be difficult).

for java download Eclipse and java SDK.

find a good tutorial in your language about java. (becausse that you have Google:))

good luck!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aagames:
What kind of games are you interested in?

Are they 3d games or simple 2d games?

Which programming language do you know? c++ or java, maybe both?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbosanac:
Hmm, i dont have knowledge about java or something like that.

I prefer 3d games, i tought to use Unity3D ? is that good.

But if i learn some java it will be come good ??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aagames:
When it comes to android, java is really helpful in overall.

If you want to make game 2D, you may make it only in java. Read about andengine framework. I think it's best free 2d framework.

For 3D games, it's good to use existing engines, also Unity3D (as i remeber, you should know c#), but there are many other engines (like j3Monkey). Some needs java some C.

Knowing only C/C++/C# will be really troublesome to create game for android.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m_1_x_a:
android games need to know java, such as this for it makes the application
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aagames:
i agree, but...

you don't need to know java to make android game. It's undeniably helpful and makes life easier, but it's not strict requirement.

There are engines (i.e proton, but i wouldn't recommend it to use :p) fully wokring in ndk and giving you - at the beginning of project - whole set of activities and methods required for proper working app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seriva:
I am also interested in making games. Did you make a great one? Let me know :highfive:

Can someone tell me the differences in the various types of roms for ics. like the stock ics rom , cm7 ics rom , cm9 ics rom and miui ics rom. and also which one is better and best
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Akizella:
CM9 ics is smoothest but fm radio, video recording or hdmi isnt working. Stock is not that smooth but everything is working, also miui is based on stock (i think) so not that smooth but working everything, you could try new aosp 4.0.4 wich is not based on stock or cm9, aosp 4.0.4 haves everything working but hdmi and fm radio, but its smooth as cm9 :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Ah man, not another the best/better rom thread....

Basic difference is based on stock or based on custom code, cm9 for example. Which means, some of roms will run on locked bootloaders, and some of them will only work with custom kernels which require unlocked bootloader.

All those info are written in each rom's first(few) post(s).

Now to explain why I wrote that in first part of my post. There is no best and better rom, it's up to personal experience. Some rom's can be faster, but with no extra options, so as you can see, someone will go for faster, someone will go for extra options.

Go and read and try, find what's best for you.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] now.i.feel:
Dude i dont think there is ICS CM7.. CM7 is android 2.3.7 gingerbread..

Don't forget to hit 'THANKS' if I helped..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] lijoc:
i am as off now using Ka18which is based on stock havnt gone to ka 19 since it has many issues and just waiting for that to b resolved. but i wanted to know if its the best or not.

like i am more into customization and looks . i would prefer something where i can customize and at the same time i want it to be smooth and not hang in between.

in ka18 the net is too slow for me all the time. while all work well.

fm radio is not imp to me and hdmi also is ok as long as it doesnt decrease the quality of the display in phone. so would u suggest using cm9 or aosp 4.0.4 and which rom do you suggest
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] lijoc:
ya i know there were many posts before but i was never properly satisfied with all answers there and all that i read. i have so far only tried the based on stock roms. looked in cm9 and all but many times let it go cos data is not working in many and thats something very imp for me. i dont mind the rom not having ne extra options as that can be added. as of now the kernel also i use is night elf rc3 which seems to be fine even though i have issues with data and wifi disconnection often. based on speed which would u suggest?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jroyjohnson:
I think it would be beneficial to be able to read a list of some of the more popular ROMs and some of the highlights from each one. Does anyone know if there is such a compiled list?

I would love to have the ability to over/under clock and a little more customization would be great too. So I've decide I will root my SGS3, just not sure with what ROMs yet. I realize that the best way is to probably try a lot out, but with my job I don't have a lot of time to do so.

I also had some question as well. Can you use TacTiles to set the cpu speeds (under/over clocking)? I would love to have it set to under clock when I get to the office since I don't use it much there and would love some extra battery life during the day. Are there certain ROMs you can do this with, or will any work?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
I'm just curious...... what this "thanks" count gives you?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jasonwsc:
Not that I recommend flashing roms for Galaxy S3, seriously why would you do that?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DarshanaXN:
I've been using MIUI V4 (V6 Supercharged) with alliance kernel mod and found it to be very smooth without overclocking.... And yeah everything is working fine(oh! there was a bug in compass... but little bit of searching gave me the fix in the same thread).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jroyjohnson:
Because I don't like Touch Wiz, that's why. And I would love some more customization and better battery life. I came from Blackberry which had tons of custominzation options stock. Now I have to download a dozen apps to get that much customization. A little bit annoying, but for the most part I'm liking the rest of the android features and def the speed.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] diestarbucks:
OP, two things:

1) The best way to get an understanding of any ROM is to flash it and try it and see if it works for you. Everyone is going to have a different opinion and no matter how much reading you do on it, it is not going to replicate the actual experience of using it first hand.

2) DO NOT SPAM THESE FORUMS WITH ONE WORD/ICON POSTS

Thank you,

:)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PetrSoap:
I have an issue I still can not add new contact to contacts ..... so maybe I should re-flash the Contacts.apk???? Should I?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Have you add account?

I say reflashing is better optuon then reset.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fakhri:
I have problem with market. It's telling "connection time out". It happen after installing Omega ROM. Cleaning data & all wipe not helping. Flashing another ROM same problem. Flashing stock GB KH7 same :( .

I want to flash GB KH7 with PIT to clean up all.

Can somebody give me a pit fail?

How i should flash this?

Or any other method to clean up?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
The files are available in the Download Repository (link in my signature). Flashing PIT is risky, and so is flashing param.lfs and bootloaders.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
You completely changed roms and wanna flash all the way back to bone stock with a .pit file because of a connection timed out error? Even I get those sometimes. Its not a big deal at all. Change modems. Run kernel cleaning script and try a different kernel. Try different apn settings. Did u mess with the DPI, are u getting any other errors? Do u have an app like juice defender installed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fakhri:
I changed modem, kernel. APN with another operator SIM. Kernel cleaning script.

But no luck. :confused:

If i will flash one fail stock rom, with pit KH7 & with odin, it will brick the phone?

I know risk, but how meny % my chance?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
*in before Entropy gives this guy a lesson on why NOT to flash pit files*
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
Knowledge is always good for all of us, not just him.

If Entropy gives him an ear-ful of lesson and directs him to the right path, he should be bless.

In fact, I want to learn about this too, just in case, for the knowledge and yes, we need those valuable info from Entropy.

I just wonder where Entropy has been lately? Since the ICS storms started a month or two back, I just see "task" as a shiny star while our kernel guru Entropy completely in the dark.
[General Questions and Answers] jago25_98:
Just having a look on my phone and I relise that all the things I use and rely on are available on my previous Symbian Nokia E71 and that in fact if I still had my E55 I'd be able to almost everything I do now but with 5 days battery life for camping trips instead of 1.

The Nokia E71 was released in 2008. We're now looking to 2013. This makes me want to take stock and say are we really achieving anything with smartphones these days?

Yes, there is massive improvement in an entertainment way and to be honest it's the tweaking and hacking that I love...

and indeed they are getting easier to use...

But my E55 used to be readable in bright sunlight, had global maps coverage, no wakelock problems and loads more battery life. I don't think any of that is possible with a Galaxy Note?

When I look at my frequently used, useful apps I see the following that is available on Symbian:

- VoIP via Fring

- Opera Mini... that fills in many gaps for the lack of apps

- various encryption apps, but... is this with a better security model than permissions that have been broken and sdcards that can be read?

- Gmail

- Global sat nav maps precachable

The only thing don't see that I use regularly is the HDRCam app but do I really need amazing photos?

What about you? Do you find the ebay or Eggdrop apps essential? What about QR codes?

Could you go back to a Nokia E71?
[General Questions and Answers] thatdefault:
The best features of S60 was battery life I have a 6120c and I had a E72 both phones last 2 - 3 days easily and Copy/paste text :p Remember iOS before 2009?
[General Questions and Answers] vnvman:
What would stop me more from going back to these phones is that non touch devices blow at browsing the web, and also the fact that on Symbian you can't turn 3g connection off, which will most likely kill your battery if you have something like whatsapp installed. I could even be fine with everything else, looking at how I use my phone right now. You're kinda right, most of the mobile innovations of the latest years actually have to do more with entertainment than with anything else. Basic functions actually got better but there's actually nothing spectacular going on with that, apart from internet speeds being bumped up.
[General Questions and Answers] thatdefault:
You can change 3G only to dual mode or 2G only in settings -> phone -> network or something like that.
[General Questions and Answers] GiantSloar:
I have an E71 that I got for testing purposes with our mail system. The stock interface is awful compared to the latest smartphones.

That said, I took it when travelling internationally last year. As a phone and a device to get mail, it worked fantastic. It easily kept a charge all day long, often through 12+ hour work days.

I'm not going to use it as my everyday phone, but I am going to keep this bad boy and use it when I travel or when I what i need most is a phone that will stay charged longer.
[General Questions and Answers] voyager_s:
I used to own an e71...until someone stole it while I was sleeping by my bedside. Lol. Easiest robbery ever I think.

Anyway...yeah it was a very good handset for its time. Loved it to bits. Battery was very good and the keyboard was a particular favorite. Last phone I had with any physical keyboard actually.

I could not see myself go back to it however. Just be a big step backwards in terms of apps and general performance. Everything except for battery life is so much better on the modern smart phones of nowadays.
[General Questions and Answers] eikiel:
Not exactly the same but: I miss my e90 :-( It was the best phone ever! I just wish it had US 3G. No other phone keyboard I have ever used measured up to that phone... I wonder if I could use it as a bluetooth keyboard....
[General Questions and Answers] centuriondan:
Well, I have been forced into going back to my E71 while my Galaxy SII is under going warranty repair (it refused to connect to the mobile network one day after running it's battery flat). :(

What I miss most is my calendar syncing, and a decent imap email client that doesn't bomb when you have a few emails in the inbox. As others have said the smartphones are way better for web browsing. The E71's user interface seems just awkward and somewhat counter intuitive. I actually like the physical keyboard better then the touch screen keyboard (doesn't take up screen real estate) but accessing the extended maps is a bit of a pain. I reacon the shift key is in the wrong place and should be in the bottom outside corner as it's used more. But then it's only been a few days and I'll no doubt get used to it again.

I'd really love to make it run android and might give it a crack once I've got my SGSII back.
[General Questions and Answers] timmytucker718:
yeah I could. I have a Nokia e5 as a back up and it does all of the essentials and is way better to type on than my current touch screen phone is. I would miss the syncing abilities of android, and the entertainment possibilities of the nice big screen.... and apps...but I'd definitely survive.
[General Questions and Answers] WildfireDEV:
I still can a spare copy of my sim that goes in my Nokia E71 as I use it all the time when I go on camping trips and long distance when I would be away from my charger for a extended period of time. It is hardy phone and the battery life is legendary.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riqz:
Hi guys.

I've just recently upgraded from GB to ICS XXLPS.

I've had it for just about a day but i do notice a lot more battery drain. There are no weird partial wakeups (none more than when i had GB) but before i used to drain 1% every hour. Now after 4 hours of activity i've drained 15% of the battery already and i haven't been using it very much. Is it because it is the first drain after a recharge since i installed ICS?

Is this normal?

I did notice a lot of Alarms in betterbatterystats from GTALK even though i don't have gtalk on my phone and froze TALK on titanium backup.

Any experience on this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorator:
1. There's a Q&A section

2. Why would you flash the old buggy LPS when there are much newer and better builds available already.

3. If you have wakelocks. Try this:

-turn on airplane mode

-power off

-take out battery for 5 minutes

-power on

-turn off airplane mode

There are a few zips in themes and apps for on screen buttons, but they affect the Xperia home. If you're on a modded stock rom then you flash the appropriate zip(I run Xperia tweaked so it's the 4.0.4 zip)and use a 3rd party home such as apex, adw ex, etc.

[HTC Rezound] SHIDOOBY:
So I decided I needed to update my phone. I installed the new firmware and everything went perfect. I decided on this rom (I am S-ON). After installing the rom I ran the other zip for S-On users. It then told me my Main Version was too old. I remember doing a fix for this months ago and saying I won't have this issue again. Now I am sitting at a white HTC screen thinking my phone is completely done for. With the firmware leak and all that all my backups seem to have been deleted. Any suggestions?... I am in dire need.

-Still sitting staring at this white htc screen. I literally am out of ideas. I did everything perfect and this happened, I'm so sad. I specifically remember doing something regarding MainVer's awhile back so I would never have this problem and now I am here with a broken phone. This blows ... Suggestions?!
[HTC Rezound] tCizler:
If you are s-on, it is nearly impossible to be "done for". Probably user error (no offense) but you probably had a file named incorrectly or it didn't flash properly. I just got to work and can't really help you right now, but i know someone can. Just don't worry, you'll be fine. Like i said, it's far from "done for".
