What do you do to "calibrate" a new batter? I've just charged a new 2700mah Anker to full and then I'm going to let it run all the way down. Anything else I should do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Don't ever let a battery run all the way down to the point that the phone shuts off. But yes just do that a few times and FULLY charge each time. No partial charging.

I got 2 for my note too. Is it advisable to use all 3 interchangeably or rotate daily between 2 and keep one first?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bob60626:
My Anker 2700 came in. I put it in and am juice offending it to about ten percent; then I'll turn it off and let it charge all night.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Aren't you supposed to charge it first before using it? Directions that came with the battery would tell you that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bob60626:
I didn't see that anywhere. It seems to be ok.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] whateheck:
Didn't see it as well. It only says don't over discharge and over-charge. New ones usually comes at 66% batt for me so I use it up abit too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bob60626:
Battery life seems better after the first few days. I did notice a lot of standby drain with 4g early on, about twenty percent overnight(eight hours). I usually charge it overnight and have a 4g widget when I won't be using the phone a lot.

I went from charged to seventy five percent this morning (off today) in two hours with one hour forty seven minutes of screen time. I think I can live with that. There's still just a little bugginess and GPS is about a block off with wifi off but it's a keeper now. I'll wait till the Note 3 comes out to snag a 2 on the cheap. :D

Before the battery swap my battery life was just dreadful! Screen time is much better now per use.

I was wanting to unroot this EVO 3d. Just making sure that its ok to take an OTA update on HTC unlock method once the update comes through. I couldn't find anything regarding if its ok to proceed once released.
[HTC EVO 3D] blazerboy567:
Crap wrong place please move to Q&A thought I hit that.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
If you are wanting to root:

Rule #1 - Do not take OTA updates. Always let a Dev check it out and post it up on the Dev Forum before updating. More times than not, you will lose root and receive an updated HBoot.
[HTC EVO 3D] blazerboy567:
Wanting to unroot. I used HTC method to unlock bootloader wondering if this will cause an issue technically receiving an OTA update will unroot and set to stock OTA firmware, radio, data, Wimax, and hboot also stuff I missed but what will happen to an unlocked bootloader through HTC methods.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
Reading comprehension this morning is not up to par yet. Sorry.

You may have to re-lock it to get OTA updates, "fastboot oem lock"
[HTC EVO 3D] blazerboy567:
I was thinking that since the boot loader was the only thing effected by the HTC method it may not read the signature correctly for the OTA. I know the RUU has to have a lock signature for the hboot to ID the update or maybe nothin will happen and it will update fine.

I have successfully rooted my ChinaRetail ICS (Blur_Version.67.2.120.XT910.ChinaRetail.en.CN)

Here's the thing,

when i first started to flash the ChinaRetail,i actually did a mistake.

im was from Blur_Version.651.167.19.XT910.Retail.en.EU and flashed ICS with success but i just want to try it.After that i try to downgrade back to GB.That actually worked but i need to on it every time with bp tools n some of the features like usb mounting is not working.I did everything but fail.its still the same,need bp tools.So i decided to upgrade to the ICS again.i deleted all the block file n restarted.But because i restarted,i used the block step n backup the GB system that is not fully functional.So my question is...

If i downgrade back and flash the latest ICS LEAK,do i have it fully functional like tethering and usb mounting?

PS:apologies for my long story n bad english:)

I was using ICS with no problems for about a month...but 3 days ago my wi-fi stop working.

If i try to turn it on.... nothing!.

I did the factory settings (wipe - losing my data).

wifi stil doen't work.

I did the update, the new ICS version that i found in here(for Italy): "I9100XWLPF_I9100OXILP6_ITV"). And installed this too: "CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXI_LPF-v5.5-CWM5"

wifi stil doen't work.

I installed "Resurrection-remix_ics_V1.9.1_AOKP-B35-4.0.4"

wifi stil doen't work.!!!!!

There's a posibility that wifi is really broken?

Please give me some advise.

I know that warranty is void making all this stuff. There's a way to return into REALLY samsung factory settings? if i need to use the warranty
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sax0406:
Flash a stock ROM and check :) if wifi still doesn't work, you can go to the service centre.. And if you install stock ROM, your warranty will not be void.. You can get stock ROMs in www.samfirmware.com :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tania_marquez:
thank you for the reply. I tryed a lot of stock roms (full rom with odin: pda, dcd, modem, pit files) (and roms with one file).

Nothing, the wifi is not working.

I will send my phone to the samsung support. I had the doubt, but know i know that with a stock rom the warranty is OK.

I have few queries if you could answer, I know they may be very modest, but still they are unclear to me if you could help

What is the difference between ROM/ Kernel/ Baseband?

If I apply a custom ROM will it change Kernel and Baseband too?

I did a nandroid backup before installing a custom ROM, but when I restore it, it doesn’t work the screen keep on flashing and nothing happens. Can you suggest something here?
[LG Optimus 2x] punyategar:
Rom is like the OS, like froyo, gingerbread, cyanogenmod.

Kernel is like a bunch of drivers and sets of ways to execute those stuff by the OS.

I forgot about basebands and RILs.

Changing rom means changing everything but baseband & ril. The exeption would be temasek's cm7 kangs. He include 218 ril with his kangs. Kang is when you compile cm roms yourself and you can share it freely to people.

If restoring a nandroid backup didnt work, you probably restored it from a different version of cwm recovery. Maybe, you made the backup from version 4xxx and restored it over version 5xxx, vice versa.

[LG Optimus 2x] bech5:
There is no reason to change your baseband. Simply flash the rom you want, flash the kernel you want (if not included in the rom), download 'getril' from the market, use it to match baseband and ril... that's it.
[LG Optimus 2x] presuntinho:
Getril doesn't work in my P990h, although LG ril appears show that there is no problem with my baseband and ril.
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
When you flash a ROM everything is changed except for the baseband. The baseband sticks to your device no matter what ROM you're using. The only way to change it is using either Smartflash or nvflash.

What is the best Baseband / RIL combination? No one can answer that as each one of us is on a different mobile network with different settings and on different countries, so it's up to you to try and find out which is the best baseband / RIL for you.

By the way, flashing a new baseband will wipe out everything. Make sure you create a backup first.

Hope this clears things a bit for you now ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] presuntinho:
1 how to test baseband and ril combination?

2 what exatclu will be wiped out after change baseband? I am really surprised with this

my reception is horrible, that is the reason i am trying to change rom, bb, etc.

that is not the first time i read totally divergent information, so i am asking before brick my smarthphone.

the jargon used to change rom, bb in Android is totally new for me. I am reading the foruns i see people with exactly the same problem i have. But i see that aftfer ask 1, 2 times the person give up.

Was a total surprise for me that chaging the BB could wipe system data.

Looks like when i post in a dedicated thread people send me to the general Q&A, but when i ask questions in the Q&A, people send me to the dedicated threads even if i don't know wich are the steps and wich tools i should use to achieve what i want:

safely try the faster rom and solve the reception/signal problem.
[LG Optimus 2x] bech5:
Your reception problems may not have anything to do with your bb/ril. It could be that you simply have bad reception due to your location, carrier, etc. If you had bad reception with the stock rom, changing to a custom rom is probably not going to fix it.

If you just want a faster rom, then I think you should install the latest Nova HD v. 1.0.1.(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1508492). Then use the custom installation option to experiment with different rils, different kernels etc. to find the best combination for you overall - and you don't have to do a full wipe every time once you are on an ICS ROM. Taking a backup of your rom with CWM is always a good idea though, just in case. You will not brick your phone as long as you follow the instructions given. It is actually pretty hard to brick your phone!

I use too Nova HD ir very smooth And a lot battery life.

Ril and baseband compatibility can be verified with this program:

[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
Simply try different BB / RILs combinations (eg. BB420 and 420 RIL). You don't really need to use a matching RIL with your BB, but it is recommended. If you find a BB/RIL combination that gives you stable signal and data, then stick to it. That's how we do it.

Your data partition will be wiped out while flashing a new baseband. That is why you should get a backup first so you can get everything back later.

Tonyp's post has all the info you need regarding this. Third post contains info on how to flash a baseband and the tools you need for that.

All the info you'll ever need is likely to be already posted somewhere in the forums. If it's not, you can always open a new thread and ask ;) (but remember to use the Search first!).

I've never gotten my Rezound to restore its apps or its wifi networks. I've also noticed that after a wipe, during the setup process, its asks you if you want to keep your device's networks and settings backed up with Google, but does not give you the option to restore your phone from Google like my Eris and my Transformers do... Has HTC just omitted this functionality??

Gingerbread did that for me but not ics. But I don't mind. Don't like it to auto download anyway.
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
I don't really think it's a good idea to restore from TB.

Although I paid for TB last year, I don't even bother installing it anymore.

When I flash a new rom I find it is MUCH better to reinstall an app from an APk than to restore it. I now use AppMonster Pro to save the APK from all the apps i use to a folder on my card and then clean install them on the new rom.....
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
The only times I have had it auto download was by signing into google during setup wizard.
[HTC Rezound] xdadevnube:
Hm, I had a totally different experience. I had about 220 user apps installed. I did a batch backup with Ti Backup, and then a batch restore with data. I think there were seriously one or two apps that I had trouble with. I just wiped the data on those apps and set them up manually.

I guess I don't really see what the fuss is. Now I tend to just install apps from the Market so I get the latest version, and restore data on the few apps that I require lengthy setup.

I also tend to keep archives of my Ti Backup folders, because there are some times I need to go back to an old version of an app because of some crappy update.

I've done batch restore with data with Ti Backup with 200+ apps multiple times with virtually no issues. Some examples of apps I try to install clean are LBE Privacy Guard and Busybox Installer.

Maybe people are restoring system apps?

Well, after a couple weeks of serious deliberation, I finally decided to get the One X. I originally was waiting for the GS3 but I wasn't blown away by it's announcement. At best, I think the phone is equally as good as the one x (especially in the U.S. where they will have nearly identical internals). The design of the One X is fantastic and the screen is just beautiful. After I saw that the bootloader had been unlocked, I couldn't see any reason to wait.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and say how excited I am to have this beast.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Zabalba:
If you are referring to the SOC, yes they will be the same.

Other than that they have very different internals.

SD card slot expandable to 64 gigs (exFAT too, so no 4 gig file limitation)

Removable (larger capacity) battery

2 gigs of ram (Korean version carries the S4 like the US version)

arguably better camera

arguably better display (you can't contest the blacks)

but I digress

So far development on this phone is picking up. I'd recommend CleanRom 2.1. Check out the remap keys mod while you are at it :P
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Once we have kernel source development will pick up.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I took the "equally as good" comment by the OP to mean just a general judgement of the GS3 compared to the One X. This is completely subjective, of course. But I I tend to agree with the OP. The performance will likely be very similar. Aside from from the SD slot and removable battery (which are certainly valid aspects), any other hardware differences are marginal, if at all. The big difference I see is that the physical design of the One X has very sleek and premium look and feel; while the GS3 looks like cheap plastic, and the design is no real departure from previous GS or Galaxy Nexus phones.

To the OP, welcome to the club. I had similar thoughts originally. I was pretty much set on the One X, but opted to wait until the Samsung GS3 announcement before finally deciding. I too was underwhelmed by the GS3, and went for the One X.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] doctorevil2425:
That's pretty much what I was getting at. Expandable storage is not something I care about, I've always found it to be something I think I will use more than I actually will (although I am sure some people would use it more than I would).

A removable battery would be nice, but the build quality on this phone is unbeatable. So long as the battery performance is adequate, I'll get used to not being able to take out my battery.

As far as the camera, I think one could argue that the one X has just as good, if not a better camera. The one x has the better aperture but the gs3 looks like it will have better sensors. Either way, it's splitting hairs.

Hopefully, the modding community will be strong for the One X, but it's a flagship so I don't think it will a problem (*crosses to fingers)

CM9 for Galaxy Player 5.0 INTL, USA and KOR devices​

Hi guys. I've been following the CM9 development in this forum and it seems as if JackpotClavin is trying to port the 3.0 kernel so the ROM development has slowed/stopped. I decided to try and port CM9 to the SGP and I managed to get it working a few days ago.

Supported versions:

23/07/12 Nightly is stable

20/08/12 Nightly is stable

23/09/12 Nightly is stable (Recommended)

Screenshots:

​

Not Working:

Camera

Hardware Acceleration

Rom Downloads:

Stable rom: 23/07/12 ROM

Stable rom: 19/08/12 ROM

Stable rom (Recommended): 23/09/12​

Extras:

Home fix kernel for INTL and KOR users

Bluetooth Patch

Tablet Mode MOD. You will still be able to use the phone UI. Choose the MOD for CM9 ROMs

ICS Navigation Bar (On screen buttons).

Only works on 23/09/12 version

GApps (optional)​

How to Install:

I am not responsible for your device. You are flashing this at your own risk! It works on INTL, KOR and USA devices but only Player 5.0

Make sure your device is ROOTED

Make a backup in ClockworkMod Recovery (not essential but recommended)

Push zip file to your SD card

Wipe data/factory reset - Not needed when coming from other versions of ICS

wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache

Install zip from SD card

Reboot system (This can take a long time so don't be too worried)

For INTL and KOR devices, reboot into recovery and flash Noisyfox's homefix kernel so you can use your menu, home and back buttons

Flash Bluetooth Patch

Flash GApps if you want

Enjoy :)
