I have an app that warns when it goes over 40 and it happens daily. I was downloading torrents one time and it keeps the screen active while downloading and the thing got like 62 celsius before I realized what happened. It almost burnt my hand lol. if your ever in sunlight or palming the phone while using gps on 4g.

overheating is very common with this phone I wouldn't worrie about it to much it is uncomfortable though if in your pocket
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AaronPauley:
Also remember, any app that uses hardware acceleration for graphics or video (games, browser, etc.) or gps will cause the phone to heat up if used for a prolonged period of time.

Playing Osmos was like setting my phone on fire.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] XxGoKoUxX:
Are you sure I shouldn't worry? I mean, I don't want solder points falling off due to too high of a temp. Then again these temps don't even reach 100C yet. I've got the same app too probably, it's a battery monitor that tells u when the phone gets too hot. mine's goes off everytime i'm around 40+

Yep, I use GPS and often. It's just so much easier than guessing your way off a piece of paper. But yeah, like you the phone gets soo hottttttt. I have to always put the phone to my AC vent.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fastfed:
It's normal to a point.

These are serious computers we have.

Think of the old P486's back in the day, those things needed huge heat sinks and some even had fans

our phones which is what, 4x the cpu power and not only no heat sink but everything is squished together inbetween a hot screen and a hot battery

That being said, I use a program called A-see, which is to watch my security cameras while out.

And if I forget to close it out (Actually exit the program) It will keep running and running and eventually probably fry my phone

lets put it this way, I will actually start to feel it in my jeans pocket, it gets that hot.

Also I have a program which will alert me if my phone gets to 130 degrees F

And will automatically shut the phone down if it gets to 140

overheat protection or something
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AlexandersCurse:
I had this issue where whenever I try to charge my phone it would overheat to the point unbearable to touch I went back to stock flash different roms in the end i exchanged it it was still under warranty

Hello

I bought a branded xperia s phone. I live in Switzerland and have now a branded swisscom phone.

Now I wanna remove the branding of the phone. I have actually no data to backup on the phone.

What I have to do to remove the branding?

I saw the following thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1557148 Do I have to do something with this number?

Thank you very much for your help.

Just flash any unbranded firmware with flashtools, you can find all the firmwares in dev section.

Thank you for your answer.

But, there are such many firmware :confused:

Which one is for me the best? I think version xx.73?! unbrandet and not rooted for switzerland.

Thanks.

Hi guys ... I'm currently using Virtuous Affinity, and I've found it to be very slow and buggy, and I really want to switch to some other ROM .. Before Virtuous Affinity, I was using Virtuous Unity, which I found to be much better ..

So right now I need suggestions for a Desire Z compatible ROM, which is based on HTC Sense 3.5 or higher ... Or at the very least, it should be Sense 3.0 or higher ..
[G2 and Desire Z General] evilcuber:
If ur fine without a camera virtuous primadonna is very stable and smooth
[G2 and Desire Z General] ahmadka:
I actually need the camera ... If the camcorder is out though, I can probably live with that ..
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sheikmans:
Every 3.5 sense rom i've tried so far get laggy and buggy after time. I'm now using ICS mexdroid rom and this is really really really the fastest experienxe so far for me personally.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tarroyo:
Try the energy series.
[G2 and Desire Z General] magic_android:
Virtuous Affinity 2.05.0 was a fantastic ROM to use after i debloated it and supercharged it. I used it for about 2 weeks with the HTC Amaze cam mod and that was by far one of my favorite Sense ROMs. I normally stick to AOSP ROMs though because Sense 3.5 is just not meant for our phones. That's the reason why we didn't get an update to Sense 3.* and that's also the reason why our phones won't get an update to ICS, because our phones won't be able to handle Sense 3.6 either.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mazdarati2:
just try android revolution. one of the best roms ever
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sheikmans:
I tried revolution, same laggy issues after some time. Even if you reboot every day. Pick an ics rom, they are working very very well.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mazdarati2:
jup, andromadus beta 3 is the best rom ever :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] masterismos:
ARHD 7.0.4:

i suggest you: unistall via titanium all unused apps/widgets (personaly i have only the calendar and the weather widgets) then you need swap,v6 supercharger,sd boost. enable swap, set sd cache to 8192, run supercharger(my opinion option13 for rosie and 6 for memory)

bulletproof the com.android.mms. cpu sleep 245 conv. wake 1.2+ ondemand.

you will have all time 100+ mb free not loosing you message(i rec to have the ghostly), playable, smooth. always you will have lag or freezes is a sense 3.5 rom in a 512 rem device. is the best that you can do. i have tried everything.

edit:BUT ALWAYS YOU WILL HAVE THE CAMERA FLASH BAG (flash doesnt open in the same time when the camera captures a picture so the image is black) this is the reason i let the 3.x roms. you cant fix it even install the amaze mod camera even a 3rd party app or different kernel...
[G2 and Desire Z General] astriaos:
Okay to cover this one more time:

Sense 3 and 3.5 roms are not ever going to work well on the G2 series. Dead Stop. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

The G2 series does not have sufficient system horsepower to properly run a Sense rom of this series. You want Sense UI and G2 in the same package? Great. Run Virtuous Sense 2. It is based on the DZ firmware and is very stable.

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.
[G2 and Desire Z General] joeymagnus1:
You could keep a backup of a couple different roms on your sd card. That's what I do. Primadonna might not have a working camera, but audacity does.it only takes a few short minutes to switch between roms.

[Galaxy S III General] Brownstone:
Only 5 days to go until the official release in the UK, and I was wondering how many people have taken the day off work specifically to collect their new phone?

I'm not personally, but I have a brother who works for CPW who said their deliveries usually come in on the Tuesday, so I may have mine a day before release!

One other thing, after watching all the videos out there, I feel I am expecting this phone to completely blow me away. Do you guys think it's really going to be all that and a bag of chips?

Cheers,

BS...
[Galaxy S III General] Tachikoma_kun:
I'm taking the day off, but that's mostly because there's no guarantee what time it will be delivered at my workplace and I start early and finish early. I don't want to have to hang around the office all day for it to arrive at 5:00 so I'm taking the day off and collecting it from the VodaGroan shop.

The "all that" thing is going to be largely down to useage and expectations, I'm a heavy user, but I'm just expecting it to be better than my SGS1. This phone isn't going to cook my dinner, rub my shoulders, etc, it's just going to be for browsing the web, listening to music and playing games.

Battery backup

Battery back-up on stock battery now rocking high on the ICS leak 1Day and 5hrs and still kicking.The new power save feature is also ausome.:D:D:D
[LG Nitro HD] VladPhotoPro:
Same thing here. Much better overall performance and battery life with ICS leak, compared to CM9. Used it for couple days, and there is not a single reason that I can see to go back to CM9.
[LG Nitro HD] jekostas:
This is what I've found:

ICS Advantages:

Proper driver support

Excellent UI

Better battery life

More responsive interface

CM9 Advantages:

No bloatware

Open architecture allows for more tweaking

AOSP apps

Constant improvement

Push:

In-app performance

I've found the leaked ICS more than stable enough to be a daily driver. In fact, in 3 days of usage I've had no more problems than any stock firmware build I've ever had in a phone. Heck, it's got fewer problems than the stock GB build did.

On the other hand, CM9 is *not* stable or polished enough to be a daily driver for me. The biggest problem was there were issues that were keeping the phone awake even when not used and absolutely killing battery life. Processes not being killed off properly, sensor issues, backlight and radio problems, the list went on.

YMMV, obviously - some people have had way fewer problems with CM9. It's just not the case for me.
[LG Nitro HD] Victor B:
That is awesome! You guys with ICS are making me jealous. I'll have to wait for an official release as I'm not comfortable upgrading it like y'all on my own.
[LG Nitro HD] bobdallama:
Have to agree. Stock ROM is actually impressive. Fluid, and even rootable, so I got rid of what bloatware there was (which really was not a lot to begin with).
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
On that note, does anyone know how I can switch from CM9 to the new ICS, step by step? And also, How can I still keep all my stuff? I'm not sure if Titanium Backup will work or not on CM9, I heard it had issues.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I'm personally gonna stick with CM9 because it's more than stable enough for me and constantly improving. But switching from CM9 to LG ICS is as easy as putting the phone in download mode and running the 1-click installer.

Backing up app data via TiBU should be fine. Just don't restore system data when you are in LG ICS.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Installing LG's ICS is easy. It's getting back to CM9 (or any other ROM) that is difficult.
[LG Nitro HD] osmosizzz:
I haven't really had any issues with cm9 nightly. Ive been running it as my daily driver and it does a good job and my battery life goes to about 18 hours with heavy usage (extended battery). im thinking about going to ICS leak but i really enojoy the way that im able to tweak clock speeds (specially past 1.5GHz), tweak the memory and apply themes on cm9 (I dislike looking at the same thing for a while **coughcoughiphonecoughcough**) Hope to see a kernel and custom rom for atleast the leaked ICS. Its a loud call but will is it loud enough? :-/
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
What exactly is difficult? It's too easy, just requires a little more manipulation.

""devs/people at xda consider these things as hurdles, not dead ends"" ;)
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
Switched from CM9 to ICS and so far....

I'm not really liking it. Might be because of the difficulty it gave me with TiBu, or maybe its because I can't use the volume buttons to change tracks on poweramp anymore. Then there's the cartoony lool and lack of CWM. I don't know, but it just rubs me the wrong way right now.
[LG Nitro HD] SergioFern:
No CWM: back to CM9

I want to go back from the leaked ICS release to CM9, but without CWM working, how do i do it? do i need to use the unbricking method? i would rather not since it looks like a nightmare. I have backups from CWM on my sd card of both stock and CM9, and my Nitro is rooted on the new leak. someone please help!
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
I'm in the same exact situation. Anyone know how?
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
If you have root, you only need to follow the LAST steps of the unbricking guide -- starting from the heading "Restoring the original Nitro HD images" on the guide. Doing the stuff before that is just wasting your time.

If you don't have root (and can't get it to root), then you'd have to follow the full guide.

Edit: Please only attempt these steps if you know what you're doing. There may be unforeseen complications because the new ICS ROM is not fully understood at this point in time. Don't blame me if your phone stops working.
[LG Nitro HD] SergioFern:
possibly

Going to try this, maybe tomorrow. I will update with results. Thanks for the help!
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Please notice my edit to my last post. Some people have had issues returning to CM9 while others have been able to do it without any issues. Just be aware that there is still some uncertainty with what exactly the leaked ICS ROM has modified.
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
Tried to do what you said to do, bricked my phone. Was able to put phone in download mode and reinstall ICS leak however. It's like ICS really doesn't want us to leave lol.

Thank's

[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
From what people are saying now, you just need to follow the full unbricking guide. Seems like the root you get when using the ICS ROM is somehow not "full" root. Make sure region is set to Korea when going through the process.
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
Can't do the full unbrick guide. Every time after my phone finishes rebooting after doing all the steps, my phone is still on the ICS leak and I still have all my apps and everything. It's like it wasn't touched at all.

----Edit

And yes, I do leave the language and stuff at korean.

At least its more stable than cm9. Çm9 was good but even with all the updates it was unstable. If we want to theme the leak using launcher pro works smooth
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
How is the official ICS compared to the leaked version? I felt like there were still many things needed to be worked on in the leaked version so I'm curious.
[LG Nitro HD] vn1977:
The main problems I had with CM9 was the touch screen was mega finicky compared to the leak and I honestly did not get battery life comparable to the leak as well, but did really like the untouched ICS. Back on the leak now, waiting for official to come out and be CWM flashable and see what people come up with for roms. :)
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
Wait, I thought the official version was already released?
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
No, we've been using an official leak, the final version hasn't been released for the p930 yet
[LG Nitro HD] 996gt2:
Just installed official ICS leak and rooted it today.

It is much more stable than the CM9 nightlies ever were for me, and runs quite fast. I actually prefer the UI of the official ICS leak to that of CM9.

Once rooted, you can customize to your heart's content, so not much of a loss, really. I'm glad to be finally done with flashing a new nightly every day or two hoping for fixes to the stability issues of the CM9 nightlies.

Here's a question- anyone get swype to install properly on the ics leak?

So linaro stuff is being built into CM9 to make everything much more faster, maybe even faster than the official release of ICS. Discuss.

[LG Nitro HD] osmosizzz:
i went from cm9 to the leak and then yesterday i went back to cm9. so the thing is that cm9 did have some problems that was bugging me, like a little lag switching screens and other little things. based on what i was told about the leak, i thought it would be better but for my PHONE in particular it was worse than cm9. apps were slower, some didnt work (instagram specifically and facebook) also the system would lag. in cm9 i never had to pull out the battery because the phone froze but i did in the leaked ice. i will say that at first it felt smooth but then i ran into the problems. so far im running cm9 6/9 and i have felt the speed different. the only problem i see is that blue flashing that mostly happens in landscape mode. also i thought the battery would be better but it was horrible for me on the leak. now im back on cm9 and ive noticed the different. much much better. even than other nightlies as i was on before. and the 6/9 brought LTE back (im not sure which others had LTE before) got 20Mbps down and 8Mbps up . on the leak I got 26Mbps down and 5Mbps up. (NYC region)
[LG Nitro HD] vader860:
Sometimes everything is clouded by the fact of wanting to run stock. But then when you see how good CM9 is, that quickly changes.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
i'm going to hold off on my official comparison until both roms are on a level playing field. i'm not so sure it makes sense to compare an unfinished final ics(april 11th version) and a cm9 that is based on nightlies and doesn't even have an rc yet.
[LG Nitro HD] osmosizzz:
yeah that is true but for the time being, they are both imperfect so they can be comparable. i would agree more if it was official ics vs nightlies. but leak and nightlies could work out. also just to see hwo one does better than the other given the fact that is the only 2 versions of ICS we have
[LG Nitro HD] jekostas:
In close to three weeks running the leak I haven't had a single wakelock or strange battery drain like I did in CM9.

I don't care about customization or how wonderful CM9's apps are or how "good" it is if the phone's dead in half a day.
[LG Nitro HD] infamouscheater:
Is anyone else having battery issues? Mine doesn't lasts 6-7 hours, I get drained so fast I get 5 minutes worth of use on my last break, about 6 hours in to my work shift. I threw on juice defender, and I still don't see whats happening, I don't have an extended battery, but it did last longer on GB.
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
Are you on ics leak or cm9 nightly?
