His 1st point is a lie...

All new LTE Windows phjones have Visual voicemail.

Old ones do also if the damn carriers would enable them.

His second thing on apps. Purely not true. Drummer roll please....

United Airline app... http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/043c89b2-f869-4306-b012-52a870bf5e72

You can tap to focus the camera... IT focuses where you tap then takes the picture. Why the hell would you focus on something if you were not going to take the damn picture, omg. And you can set it so you don't accidently press the camera buttons in settings. This guy is complete BS.

Xbox games are seperate also Only acheivements are stored for prosterity. IT's not like you can't play one game without playing another.

I'd rather only the time be shown then using the ripp off from android for the notification center.

He complains about MS renaming yet he loves apple that decided not the call the ipad 3 nothing else but the "Ipad". What a marketing mess. WHich ipad do you own? You know i have the ipad. The new or old? I don't know just says ipad.

People like this piss me off.

I don't mind the iphone or android but when they say things that aren't true about other platforms they don't understand, it gets to me.

Well for one I wouldn't post links to his blog. And if I saw a link to his blog I wouldn't click on it. No sense in upping his Google rank.

Frankly if I were to ever speak to him I would say I'm glad you have freedom of speech wherever you live and thank you for not posting to the Windows Phone section of XDA. The guys over in the Andriod section of this forum may be cursing Windows Phone every day. I don't know about it because I don't read that section. To each there own. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion... even if I think their opinion is really dumb. It only bothers me if they keep shoving it in my face for no apparent reason when they don't have anything else to contribute to the platform.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ineedtoys:
Hardly a proper app, have you read the reviews? Charging for crap like this probably does more harm than good to the 'platform'.

"doesnt retain info ...waste of money"

"Rip off. Author is a thief. This is a wrapper for free websites, nothing more than a bookmark. Until a proper app is released, just go to united.com.

"This app sucks"

"Worthless app. Doesn't retain data or keep you logged in. The website is much more user friendly."

"Absolute waste of money. Use the mobile website and you will get a better experience."

Not exactly the best example to defend WP!
[Windows Phone 7 General] anseio:
As others have already mentioned, this guy is a complete tool.

*No receipt scanning app - I use HandyScan and I love it.

*Populating People Hub with crap contacts from hotmail account - Well... that's what you get for not maintaining your hotmail contacts better. I set a friend up, a few weeks ago, with her first smart phone... the Lumia 710. On her RAZR, she had all her phone numbers. On her hotmail account, she had all her email addresses. Have to manually merge the two. A lengthy, but necessary process that only has to happen once. That this guy can't keep his contacts in good order is clearly NOT my problem.

*Camera functions suck - Yes, there is no question that the iPhone 4s has an amazing camera with good funtionality. Actually using it though is a complete PITA. I was teaching a few friends how to select focus and exposure points on their iPhones. So much work with pressing and long pressing. Oh, and I can't stand having to press the software button to snap the photo. I'm constantly hitting the home button instead of the shutter. It's remarkably awkward and unintuitive. This, however, is only my opinion based upon the fact that I've never own an iPhone and never well, but am quite skilled in how to actually use one.
[Windows Phone 7 General] blushrts:
If the guy doesn't want his Hotmail contacts to show up, it only takes a couple of steps to filter which contacts show up. Using the phone one day, he never gave it a chance.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ROCOAFZ:
yes, but he did say there was "none"

Actually i would have used skyscanner or something else but he was saying one specific brand was not there.
[Windows Phone 7 General] NeuroXT:
As a regular consumer, who cares about what he says.

His false opinions are his own.

For gods sake judging by how he wrote this so-called "review" labels him as an iOS sheep and Android bridge troll, what a goddamn fcking retard.
[Windows Phone 7 General] creamy:
I laughed so hard at this chaps apparent inability to take on new tech, he really does come across as being a pre teen keyboard warrior.

I for one am glad he doesnt like the OS, WP7 is better off without people who cannot count the amount of appendages they posess.

However, if I don't add those modules then my kernel installs just fine.

The kernel partition is only 10MB in size.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hedpe:
I see... do you have any suggestions on how to package the modules with the kernel? is it possible to do this outside the boot.img but within the update ZIP with the help of updater-script ?

EDIT: yeah, it seems do-able. This kernel includes the modules outside of boot.img and has them installed via the updater-script

Hi all,

Quick question. Is it possible to flash another kernel after you've used a ROM for some time? Or do you have te reflash the ROM as well and start from scratch?

thanks
[HTC One X] treebill:
You just need to flash the kernels boot.IMG then get into recovery and flash the modules.
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
You can flash a kernel at anytime you like to. No need to start ROM from scratch.

Just make sure to flash the modules that come with the kernel too.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
I've been having some problems with my battery temperature...

Usually when I'm not using my phone the temperature stays around 27C. But when I use a small app like messaging for a minute or so it shoots up to about 35C or more.

Another thing is that when I keep my phone for charging it's temperature rises upto 55C or more. Once it went to 60C.

Is this normal or is my battery faulty?

Btw for the battery stats I use Minimalist Text.

I'm on the MIUI ROM by TheFrankenstain. Overclocked to 1.2ghz.

Any input will be helpful. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ivAnash:
My battery goes up to 55 degrees during charge .. That and the other temperature's are fine.. But touching 60 is abnormal..

Heavy usage during charge is not recommended, and specially with overclock will screw up ur device..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Dont set phone freq to 1.2 ghz always. While charging keep max freq to 800 mhz & min 300 mhz.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] hpog:
Charge, overclock & play an online game over wifi all at the same time and you'll fry your phone dude... :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] The_GMAN:
When your phone is not in use and not charging: around 33C and below is completely normal.

When your phone is in charge but not in use: around 40C and below is normal.

When your phone is in use but not charging: then 40C and below is normal depending on what you're running. it may go up to 45C depending on your kernel and max CPU frequency and also how heavily an app consumes resources e.g high graphic games (it also depends on the weather :D).

In Summary: 35C and below is completely normal when

NOT

in use, 45C and below is normal when in use, 50C+ is quiet dangerous in any condition especially when not in use, 60C + Immediately stop using your phone and you'll wanna head to the freezer fast :D and change your battery or phone.

Always remember: NEVER use you phone while charging.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok thanks for the replies... I'll keep the things in mind.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Actually it got automatically Overclocked when I flashed the MIUI ROM. Any Overclocking app was not installed, so I installed setcpu to make profiles for charging. But problems started to occur after that. So I uninstalled it and those problems disappeared. Well I checked with an app. It remains on 1.2ghz only 14%.

Maybe the temperature is due to the summer. 33C outside.

Anyways I've come up with my own way to keep my phone cool. I place it on a wet cloth. And that does help. :p:D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] saywhatt:
just go easy on the overclocking thing, it might fry your phone :P you can also try opening the back cover while it charge :P it's what i do sometimes when my s2 goes reeeally warm -.-

O.M.G, are you out of your mind? Dude!

Never ever ever ever ever (infinity ever's) put your phone NEAR water, not even ON it! water, or a cloth with water, whatever! just don't do it!

And.. just sayin' since you just did put it on a cloth with water, don't put it in the freezer! /sarcasm :p

Seriously dude, don't do it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok. But i don't keep the cloth that much wet. Anyways it was due to the overclocking. I flashed the stock rom back and everything was back to normal. Except one little thing. Well that thing needs another thread. I'll not discuss it here. :o

I have downloaded the Indian firmware -> Retail Indian - 5.5.1-EDEM-28-37-SEARET and have updated the file via bootstrap.

I have performed factory reset, wiped cache, wiped dalvik and everything was working fine for 4 hours.

Now my phone is not responding to any keys, a green light is blinking at the top, I have removed the battery and switched it on after replacing it.

It turns on, shows the signal and other icons but the lock button is displayed and it doesnt respond.

If I call to my number I am able to answer it and after ending it again it goes back to same stage.

Please help. I am stuck here.

I dont have the fkz file, I have a zip file in the sd card.

It will be really helpful if you can provide me steps to do that or can you let me know how to enter recovery mode with CWM.

I am really freaking out, please help me out.

I took a backup of the original ROM before installing this ROM.

Ok, go to this post, it is the beginners thread, and it explains how to flash the fxz factory restore file:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1396650

And need to pick your fxz file from here, not sure of the exact one you need:

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php

Follow the instructions in the link above about halfway down the first post there. Just use the right file from the link I provided, instead of the AT&T retail version in the beginners thread.

The instructions will start with:

HOW TO FLASH A FXZ:
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
Download the fkz from here.Be sure to choose your region.

First off what OS are you running on you computer?

Download RSD Lite and drag and drop the fkz into RSD. Then boot your phone into fasboot by powering up while holding vol up+down.

Read the noob thread for more detailed instructions found here.
[Motorola Atrix 2] sandydude:
Thank you for the instructions and your help.

This is a AT&T phone which I got it from US.

Shall I install the original AT&T?

I have few steps meanwhile waiting for someone to reply.

I pressed vol up/down and power button and went into system recovery

wiped cache and did factory reset and I tried to install from Sd card.

It said E-verification failed.

I thought I lost hope and I restarted to see if it works.

Now I am able to see the setup screen when we first switch on the phone.

The android setup. I dont want to risk getting into this mess again, this is my sister's phone and she will kill me if it doesnt work properly.

I want to install the actual At&T version. Can I install it from SD card via CWM recovery?

I would be happy to continue with the current Indian version, I am afraid after few hours it will again go into the same mode as it happened today morning when I installed the Victory Rom, I dont understand why I am facing this problem even though I am following all the instructions.

Are there any apps which I shouldn't install like Titanium recovery, my backup, ES file manager? Is the battery saving mode got anything to do with this?

I am really sorry for asking so many questions, I am confused and I need your help badly. I wont play with this phone for ever if I set this straight.

Please advise.
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
You would want to boot into AP Fastboot then use RSD Lite to flash the AT&T fkz.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
yep, you need to flash the fxz. when you turn your phone on hold both volume buttons and choose ap fastboot. then use rsd lite to flash the fxz.

Setup a dropbox account. Install it on the pc and the app on the phone. The pc will always stay synched and you can get to your files from anywhere.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
There are many options to do what I think it is you want. You could set up an SSH server on your system, create a rule through your router/firewall and if you don't have a static IP use something like OpenDNS; then use a VPN client to connect (VPNRoot in Play Store works).

You could also use DropBox, Box.net, SkyDrive, Google Drive or any other 'cloud' sync service for specific files too.

Or more simply you can use something like LogMeIn or TeamViewer. Both are dead simple and if you really do need access to your system while your away (or do remote tech support) these are well worth the price(s).

Not sure if you are looking for something that will allow you to do this when you aren't near your PC, or if you are looking at something so you don' have to hook up your phone to your computer.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Aus_Azn:
I have a friend with a DI2 who needs to return his phone for a warranty claim. It is 100% stock, and on GB.

He essentially wants to do a full backup of apps and data, but I would be hesitant to unlock his bootloader and flash a recovery image.

What would be the best way to go about this?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
Look into downgrading his hboot. The use revolution to root then make a back up using cwm. Then follow the steps of unrooting. Just don't use the HTC unlocking kit.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Aus_Azn:
I think a temp root for TiBU or MyBackup Root should be able to do the trick. I feel generally uneasy about touching his HBOOT or anything Verizon would reject his phone for.

The reason for my hesitance is that AT&T rejected a warranty claim on my phone when I returned it for a dead flash memory chip, until I fought them for it.

Is there an app like RevCam Reverse Camera that's on the iPhone? Something that will reverse the playback of a video and then be able to save/share the video.

Hi guys..

Can someone explain to me in detail ref: Titanium Backup, what is update.zip function..what is it & what does it do..?? :confused:

I read somewhere it can be used to create a zip file of your backup apps.. in your next flash you can flash the update.zip in order to restore your apps from "cwm recovery"..!!

It creates an unsigned update.zip file for installing TB in recovery mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roots:
So is it only for installing TB..!!

"Is it possible to create a zip file with all my apps which I can restore from recovery mode"..??
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zodiaxe66:
It's only tb. App u flash with cwm,but do a nandroid backup and tb. can extract and restore from your nandroid.quite easy

When u make a tb.zip then use titaniumbackup.zip name,so it's easy to locate and flash.

U use this when u wipe and instal new rom.

Btw.if u extract your rom using root explorer u can modify,delete/add apps and kernel,everything to your liking,then zip it with rootexplorer and flash in cwm.then it's only a few apps u have to restore depends on how many apps u have installed.

Remember if this file doesn't exist then create it and put your 3' apps in there

So do I make zip > use update.zip function..??
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zodiaxe66:
Open settings in tb. There is an option to make a "update.zip" of tb. This one u can flash from cwm,but its only needed to flash when u wipe your phone and it's only tb. App that is restored,the rest of your missing apps u restore from tb.

In tb. settings there is also an option to extract your nandroid backup(of cause u got 1) and restore apps from that.

About "root explorer". read a bit more on how to add and remove things from roms u downloaded.even though it's quite easy to do
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roots:
@Zodiaxe.. Many thanks cleared up my confusion..

The update.zip is only used for tb..!!

I was hoping there would be a method whereby all my apps could be compressed in one zip file, which I can then flash in cwm to "restore" all my apps..

I hate the tiring method of restoring them manually..!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zodiaxe66:
Yeah I know what u mean.its a drag,LOL

but buy the premium its worth the money.

What exactly is an update.zip file used for? I know I had to run it when I flashed AOKP to my Droid Inc. It was in the instructions to do so, but I was not completely sure what I was doing at that exact step of the process.

Also, I have TB (Premium). I use it to back up all system data and user apps. I have never needed it to restore any data, but I am sure I will in the future. This is mainly because I flashed AOKP M5 to my Galaxy Nexus a little over 2 weeks ago and have not looked back.

My last question at the moment is this. If I wipe/clear cache, clear dalvik cache and wipe user data (factory reset) how does my TB data stay in tact exactly?

-Kris
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roots:
This is a general explanation of update zip

There are several ways to install applications or library

files to an Android Phone . You can use Market application

to find and install or adb command line tool to install or

push the files to Android file system. These are all easy to

implement for single file but if you have several

applications or library files to install at once, it might be

better to use update zip file. The update zip file is Android

advanced system to install applications or lib files to

Android file system using recovery tool. This method is

commonly used by rom or theme developers to distribute

their package.

Hope that makes sense

Answer to your last question all data saved in TB will stay in tact..so when you flash you can restore apps & data nothing will be lost (as long as you don't format sd card)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KRJ_87:
It definitely makes more sense now, but I am not quite there yet. Are you saying that update.zip file is just one option and that using TB would be an alternate to using update.zip file?

As far as your explanation on the TB file staying in tact, that makes sense. Thank you.
