[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Emission:
I've been having this weird issue that when I use my nexus as a wireless adapter for my computer (turn on wifi and enable usb tethering), the performance of the wireless connection significantly degrades when the devices screen is off.

For example, I play an RTS game that is very latency dependent, and when the screen is off my ping rockets up to around 600 ms but when I leave the screen on it goes right back down to the normal ping for my connection which is around mid-80s in ms.

I've experienced the issue with the stock rom and with the liquid smooth rom, and I'm inclined to believe that it's an issue with the power profiles for the wifi or something (different radios have not fixed the issue).

Has anyone else had a problem like this and does anyone know if there is a fix? Thanks.

Radio has nothing to do with wifi.

Try a different kernel.

It's not a problem, its a feature. You can fix this with custom kernels but the reason this happens is to save your battery when your not using your phone.

Is your Widgets working?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crixley:
that is why you have to set permissions correctly.

Did you move it to system/app wwith root explorer?

Make sure the top row of permissions all have check marks.(leave the others that are already checked off checked, I sometimes jusst check off all 9 permissions boxes if unsure)

Reboot your phone, and voila widgets will be working

It's funny everyone is hating on it in the CM9 thread. Personally I find it very smooth and much different from the old touchwiz.

I have my icons themed with a CM9 theme too and I like how it keeps the theming.

I too have tried everything under the sun even begging cursing kicking and even tried praying and I still can't get it to work.. I tried installing the zip in cwm and it didn't install tried unzipping it and dropped the apk in system app folder aannk didn't work after unzipping tried installing the apk like you would any other it showed up as an option in the launchers but when I tried to run it of course it just force closed so I tried moving the library file still force close tried fixing permissions wiping cache and dalvick cache still force close tried settings apps all touchwiz home clear data still force close. If anyone knows something I hadn't tried let me know cause until then I'm stuck like chuck... guess I'll stick with apex launcher....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crixley:
Worked for everyone else so I'll give simple steps.

Use root explorer.

Copy the apk to system/app

Set permissions correctly on it (check all 9 boxes if unsure) but don't install yet

Copy the lib to system/lib

Reboot phone

Then use root explorer and go to system/app

Click on the launcher apk and choose install.

There you go

I tried flashing it via CMW, then it said "enjoy". I thought I made it, but surprisingly nothing changed.

I'm using ICS ugraded from Samsung stock GB. Someone tell me whatz wrong plz !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
That's because you don't flash in cwm. Follow the exact instructions in post above and it will work but you have to follow them step by step no shortcuts you must do it exactly like it says.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] econan1214:
I did flash the .zip file in CMW, and then rebooted the phone. But nothing changed ! I've done this many times, but no luck. I've just wiped out everything and done a factory reset, then got my phone ugraded to ICS, installed CMW, superuser, and tried to do this again. But it won't work. I don't know why. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
These are the steps you have to do if you want this work. Even though it is a zip file you do not flash it in cwm. Its not gonna work that way. You have to extract the files so you can get the apk file and others needed to do the steps above. You will also need a file explorer that allows you to get to the system files. I used es file explorer its free on the market. Follow the steps above and this will work..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] econan1214:
Thanks for your answers ! :d

But even though I use Es File Explorer as you recommended, I cannot set permission to the apk file. When I click install, it says Application not installed. I DONT KNOW HOW TO SET PERMISSION on it using Es File.

Do I really need Root Explorer to do this ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
Umm I used es file explorer. After you copy the apk to system app long click on it and several options come up. One is options click it and then click permissions then change and tick every box all nine of them

Hi

Just got a 101 G9 and upgraded to 4.0.6 straight away (was on 3.2? ) I have found thou that it keeps freezing, so if I format system in recovery can I downgrade back to 3.2 using the right .aos?

Cheers
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shano56:
you should be able to downgrade. However, if you format and reinstall ICS, you may find its much snappier and responsive with no freezes
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gen_scheisskopf:
TBH latest test version (4.0.6 test4) is good, except for one shell restart (not device reboot) everything works fine.

Yes, device will work better if you do Reset Android- moving/converting data from 3.2 "kinda works" but it's much better if you start from scratch.

However if you want to downgrade (working way):

1. Flash test ICS firmware (from within the system or from Recovewry- doesn't matter), search for links in Gen9 Development

2. Download 3.2.80 firmware from Archos website

3. Boot to Recovery, do Reset Android and flash 3.2.80 (Update Firmware)

Note- you can't rename .aos files otherwise file verification (done before flashing) will fail
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seanicca:
Cheers guys.

I put 4.0.5 on it and seems ok upto now so I'll stick with that for the time being.

What I would suggest is odin one click back to el29 using this made by sfhub. Very easy and safe this way. Once you boot into el29 rom, proceed to update prl and profile. From there, using desktop or mobile odin, odin this el26 cwm kernel. The just boot into recovery which you can then use to flash CM9 alpha 4 rom and gapps. Then reboot back into CM9 and you should be good. If 3g still doesnt work, im out of ideas lol. Let me know if you need anymore help.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BigKenW:
Hi all, I had an OG Evo and and Evo 3D. Both were rooted using various methods. HTCDEV unlocks became available right around when I rooted with Revolutionary.

I have been seeing some weird questions and comments in the forums. So if anyone can help out with some clarifying (links for me to read on my own are very welcome) it would be great.

- I have seen some posts stating that ROOT was achieved in the Dev forum, but S-OFF was not achieved. Don't you need S-OFF on HTC devices to achieve full root status? If not, what is the point of getting S-OFF then?

- HTCDEV only allows you to flash custom ROMs as I understand it. I assume that you can then flash SuperUser as well. Going this route looks like it voids the warranty. So why in the world would you do this? Many of the ROMs I used on the Evo 3D had special instructions for these people. It looked like it caused a headache. I understand this doesn't allow for custom kernels or to upgrade the radios without doing something (I have no idea what) special. Is this right?

- With Sprint now supporting rooted devices, why would you use HTCDEV (I have a feeling the answers to this will be...colorful)?

Thanks people!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Jabawockee:
S-OFF was meaningless ever since 4EXT recovery came out. I was able to flash anything without problems on the go using 4EXT recovery. The recovery can be found on the play store and I highly recommend buying the full version for $3 bucks. Best app I ever payed for. :)

I had the 3D unlocked HTC dev S-ON.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Yeah, the only reason I disagree with this is cause when I got me replacement 3d it came with hboot 1.5 and I htcdev unlocked it and put 4ext and tried to flash roms and nothing worked ever. It worked perfectly with 1.4 and the eng hboot but htcdev was horrible for me s-off way beats htcdev s-on
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Jabawockee:
Damn! I wonder why it didn't work. It took me a while to get used to all its features but worked flawlessly. I was in the same boat had no choice received hboot 1.5 but if I was given a choice I would want the security flag OFF. Hopefully this can be achieved this time around.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SteelH:
S-OFF is not meaningless. There are quite a few reasons why it is better than htcdev crappy boot unlock.

Where can I find a transparent Mms.apk or make my messaging app transparent?? My ROM is CM7
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] stim141:
On my primary car I use a USB adapter to charge the phone. Prior to the SG2 I had a HD2 which (I think) charged fine.

If the phone has a zero charge I plug it in and it will automatically boot and the charge indicator shows charging but the battery indicator does not move for a while. Charging when using the phone never seems to keep up with the charge. After about 5 minutes the top indicator (when phone is on) starts to move and the phone will charge - although it seems pretty slowly.

The weirdness - when I plug in the USB cable to a laptop when its off the battery indicator lights up on the screen (pictagram) showing the phone is charging but it doesn't boot which is correct. What is weird is below:

In the car when you attempt to turn it off the phone with the long power button press and select the right options the phone will close down - you get the TMobile logo then the screen blanks out - then IT REBOOTS on its own!

Could under voltage be doing this? or is the cig port doing something odd with the voltage or amps? Know the USB port works and charges because I can charge it off a laptop, wall charger, computer etc and it works as it should. Its not the cable because I tried it on the computers.

Also tried a different usb/cig adapter - actually three and get the same results. Car only has 1 cig port.

Anyone have an idea?

Today I did a hard reboot and when the phone comes back on it makes it to the black screen with the Motorola logo and says Modem did not power up (2) starting RSD protocol support.

Not ENTIRELY true.

While flashing a sbf file using RSDlite, you are setting all the system and proprietary things back to completely stock. It will remove root access, and all that junk, along with all, the things that came from mods/tweaks/hacks/roms

BUT flashing sbf BY ITSELF alone will NOT wipe away ANY user data. You MUST data wipe from stock recovery to do that. This is why sometimes you boot loop,after sbf flash , and you need to data wipe to cure those boot loop blues, cuz sometimes there are things left over that you tweaked that didn't get wiped out after flashing the sbf, but they get removed from a data wipe from stock Android recovery.

To sum up:

For a TRUE OUT OF BOX FACTORY CONDITION(i.e. You just bought and opened the box) MUST flash sbf file using RSDlite with a computer. AND THEN after that, you wipe data/cache from stock Android recovery.

I'm willing to bet that would have also fixed you issues with not being able to boot past Motorola screen as well. Cant hurt to get a new one, but if you can compare them to see which is in better working order, then it couldn't hurt to do.

Either way, if youre going to send it in, and want to erase traces of root and such, then you need to do more than just data wipe. You NEED to sbf AND data wipe.

Modem Did Not Power Up (2)

This is absolutely true. The error "Modem did not power up (2)" is something that I have been dealing with as well. I'd love to work with someone to figure out the problem, but it is probably not hardware. I encountered this error for the first time 2 weeks after installing Eclipse 2.2.1. I solved it by SBF to Stock. Once I had re-installed a stock ROM the error went away and the phone operated normally. I just had this error pop up again almost exactly 2 weeks after installing CM7 RC1. When I get home I'm going to SBF to stock and hopefully that will correct the issue (again). I tried clearing my cache and then clearing my data through stock recovery, but that won't correct the error - and unfortunately the error happens before BSR boots so I can't Nandroid back to a healthy setup and see where the problem is. Both times I lost signal on the phone, re-booted, and then got stuck at the Red M with the Modem error. :crying:

I'm going to try to load CM7 again, but it's pretty awful to have this happen at work and suddenly be without a functional phone. (Maybe I have to install RSD Lite on my work computer ...)

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated but I can tell you that ashclepdia is right, it is probably not a hardware problem. It seems to be a problem with rooting/flashing on certain handset builds.
