Is that true?

No it's not true.

If you've been using your phone before your unlock the bootloader, then back up your "/mnt/sdcard" because it will be wiped when you unlock bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Juggernaut79:
You must reset Google Wallet from within the apps settings. Open the app and go to settings>reset wallet. This MUST be done before you do a factory reset, unlock the bootloader, or flash a ROM otherwise you run the risk of breaking the NFC secure element for wallet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Big Cam:
So If I have had my Nexus for an entire day and I don't care if I lose anything, since there is nothing but a few apps I can get again, I can just go for it?

Should I wait until my Verizon Nexus upgrades itself to 4.0.4??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Juggernaut79:
That's totally up to you. I personally ran mine stock for a month to make sure I didn't have any hardware issues. I'm in the process of backing up my SDcard right now so I can unlock and root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
Just unlock it now so you don't have to worry about backing up your sdcard later when you do unlock later.

You'll still get the OTA if your boot loader is unlocked.

[General Questions and Answers] evilwithinme:
Hello if someone could help me with this issue a buddy of mine gave me a T-mobile G2x the other day that was rooted and has cyanogenmod 7 i later find out that the rom was installed with the OTA update and doesnt work when i try to make a call i was looking in the G2x forum and saw the nandroid restore for the old and new versions of gingerbread my question is is it possible to restore the phone to the LG_P999_v21e and if so how do i do it?
[Xperia Play General] beez1717:
I propose that every dev stop their custom made ICS roms and instead work together to make the best ICS rom possible. I feel that now that Sony has abandoned ICS for us that we should be collaborating together to finish what they WON'T. Perhaps we could even create a gingerbread backwards compatibility app or plug in or something like that. This could be epic. Who is with me?

[Xperia Play General] agraceful:
LMFAO, sorry but that is just a HORRIBLE idea. Devs already share information with each other on how to fix things. Stopping all development for a single rom? No way. People like certain things. Aspects from aokp, gummy,cna, cm9, aosp, they are ALL different so why would anyone want just one rom? I'd rather be able to choose from 12 different ics roms that are 95% working then just a single one that is 100% working, thats the beauty of development. One it's finished it's done. No more development.
[Xperia Play General] Leraeniesh:
There does not seem to be many errors with current ICS ROMs (Excluding Bluetooth audio)

The only way to run ICS is to unlock your bootloader. Period.
[Xperia Play General] crono141:
This comment is based on a misunderstanding of how the AOSP project, and CM9 for that matter, are structured. As agraceful said, devs from all over the world are already shairing their fixes, changes, and optimizations. Android isn't that fragmented. Each and every one of the ICS roms is based on one of 2 sources: CM9 AOSP, or a modified sony stock. The only thing the rom writers are changing for their individual roms are small features that don't change the fundamental functionality of the OS. PlayOSP, AOKP, FXP, CM9: they all operate and build from the same source code. If someone on the AOKP team fixes a problem, that solution will trickle down to all the other roms as soon as the code changes are committed.
[Xperia Play General] MilkyJoePD:
Custom ROMs all have their pros and cons. It wouldn't be a bad idea if devs pooled their knowledge and skills to get a solid ICS base, then went off to apply their own customisations.

If ROMs like AOSP and CM9 etc are different then those specific devs could get together.
[Xperia Play General] beez1717:
That's what I was trying to say.
[Xperia Play General] TheCraig:
I've been working on a ICS ROM Based on Sony Beta for a few weeks now and to be honest I see no stability issues while using AOSP Theme, Supercharger, zRam, and so on, I've been playing Fifa 12 with no lag :D

Our best bet would to keep going like we are now, Because the rOMS are reasonably stable.
[Xperia Play General] CTU_Loscombe:
I still reckon ICS MIUI is the most stable ICS rom for the Play. Plus, the themes are great (aside from the over abundance of Chinese text)
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
They're already doing so. Only, they don't make it public but they commit on a git or go to IRC and talk about it.

[Xperia Play General] MilkyJoePD:
I thought so (I said something similar in another thread).

If they went public imagine the PMs they'd get.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the k9:
Hi folks,

I've just done a bunch of freezing in tibu to free up some ram (I use go launcher ex, ram pig with ics) and I want to trim the fat even more. Can I freeze any of the following?

Google services

Secphone

Device management

Media

Google account manager

Package access helper

Badge provider

Csc

Bluetooth test

Sec storage

Com.sec.provider.download

Drm protected

Download manager

I think I've frozen as much as I can safely (used a list in seanscreamz ics thread, view my last posts to see it) without borking things up, but I'm a ram junky, and would like peak efficiency.

Thanks in advance!

Looking to improve my CPU float point and overall benchmark.

Anyone have any tips? I've already loaded the v6 script, but am looking to get as much performance as possible, safely.

I am a heavy device user, as I'm in the cellular industry and am constantly using or showcasing my device(s).

The skyrocket is the one I use as my main, and the only one I've bothered to flash stuff on, because its my favorite device to date, even over the one x, note or the LTE HD that bell has (basically a skyrocket, but it just doesn't feel...right. I dunno.)

I have WT19i and i have unlocked the bootloader official method. Now i flashed .58 firmware and now i wanna update to .62 but i have read somewhere that after unlocking bootloader if u update the phone gets brick.

So any solution?

If i flash .62 firmware directly then would i get root access too?

cause i have root access in .58
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
If you have stock kernel, just relock the bootloader. Making update directly from phone with unlocked bootloader causes brick indeed.

First relock the bootloader, then make update directly from the phone(3G or WiFi) to .62.

Relocking is written in my tutorial, check there if you need help how to do it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jrodella:
If I relock bootloader, the process perform a wipe same as when I unlock via Sony Official Method ?

and one more thing, if i install custom rom then would i be able to upgrade to ics easily?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] luiphilip:
Your question is already answered, on the ICS stuff. Reload original firmware just to be sure prior update, always perform clean wipe when shifting ROMS so as to avoid un-pleasant experience and make most of it.

Did you wipe your cache, dalvik's cache and factory reset your phone from Recovery before flashing ? If not, that might be the issue.

change rom

Personally Ive been modding my phone for years now and Ive ran into similiar issues a couple of times. My recomendation is to try a few different roms and see which one workks for you. I am using meanrom and will not be using anyother one for awhile. its rock solid and fast not to mention great battery life. try it you have nothing to loose but an awsome phone to gain.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] SiM0Th:
Today I installed CM7.2 following the instructions in the thread. I came from stock froyo 2.2.1 and everything worked fine but had some random reboots.

Since I have CM7.2 installed my wifi doesn't work anymore. If I turn it 'on', it doesn't search for available networks. It disables itself after +-30sec. I also noticed I don't have a Mac-adress anymore.

Is it possible that the problem is caused by doing no 'remove caches'. It wasn't in the instructions so I didn't do it. Should doing that fix the problem?

[HTC One X] tolled:
I'm a bit confused as to how to do a complete wipe prior to flashing a new rom. I tried to go into CWM and go to mounts and storage to wipe format/system, format/cache and format/data. But after that it was stuck on the boot logo. I was able to get back into the bootloader via the power button and the volume down key. There I was able to restore to a previous back up. Did I do the wipe correctly? Am I supposed to immediately flash a rom from the sd card? Does this sort of wipe delete the zip files(and there associated files) from the previous rom on the sd card? What is the proper procedure to wiping the phone and then flashing a new rom? If this has already been explained in detail, just point me in the direction of said information.
[HTC One X] hamyg84:
Once you have formatted all partitions eg system and cache, you need to install Rom straight after it, the phone is stuck at boot screen as there is no Rom, check this guide out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1592355

[HTC One X] treebill:
This is how I flash a new rom

First I go into fastboot and flash the boot.IMG for the rom with

fastboot flash boot boot.IMG

I then boot into clockwork mod either with fastboot

fastboot boot clockworkmod.IMG (point to what its called on your pc, booting like this means adb will work. )

Or by going to hboot with volume keys select with power then pick recovery.

Then use cwm to flash the rom picking full wipe.

Hi,

I experience strange problem for a smartphone.

Neither of the smart phones I had until now (HD2 & Sensation) forget the time when a battery is removed. But my Galaxy Note does.

I am with stock rom, open Europe, but I installed it via odin. The build is N700XXLB2, GINGERBREAD.XXLC1.

I also notice that the phone will not auto update the time although the setting is checked.

I wander if this could be a hardware or software problem?

well, because I did not receive an answer I updated with Open Austria ICS. Now the battery removal does not lead to time & date reset...

Thats the right way to solve the problem... :thumbup:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jenizaro:
Maybe official ICS doesn't have any superbrick problems (as they said "we can't reproduce the bug") or may be it has. Many of the users in this forum wants to use rooted custom ROMs without any problems and this is huge community so I believe that Samsung should provide an official solution for kernel problems to stop bricking issues. Its not that easy to say "we can't do anything about that". Many of us buy more than one phone and we change them within a year. People around us asks us which phone to buy. Would you still buy or recommend people to buy Samsung phones if they don't release an official solution for bricking issues?

I want to send the results to Samsung after a while (I know many of you will say Samsung doesn't care about it. I already know it. But they should understand if they dont care about us than we dont care about them we CAN buy other brands thats so simple)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] magfal:
Because of this issue i am leaning towards recommending one x. If anyone here can prove this happens on a non modified device and they do not release the fix i will recommend htc or lg to anyone who asks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jenizaro:
I believe there is no need problem to occur in a non modified device. Samsung should not ignore the whole community. This is a huge community with full of "flashaholics"!. If they ignore us than we buy HTC devices and flash ROMs aaalllll day long :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] reinbeau:
Guys, you have to realize something. We are a teeny-tiny slice of phone users. Most people don't flash anything, they just use their phones. The issue is a leaked release that was never meant to be a production kernel that got out into our community and was used - Samsung has no responsibility here, those who flashed their phones are responsible. I hate to be the bearer of such news, but that is the case. You flash at your own risk. It's horribly upsetting that some have ended up with hard bricks - but that's the nature of flashing unofficial kernels on our phones.

Keep this thread nice and it stays open, I've got my eye on it.

Yes, I would recommend Samsung products.

I deepl hated the Galaxy S1 for it's GPS issue and generall laginess, the GPS and the touch sensibilty of the Nexus S were still flawed, and I also got very angry about the lack of communication and updates of Samsung. Honestly, I promised to myself to never ever buy one of their products again.

But they seem to be capable of learning; since the GS2 Samsung delivered extremely good products compared with the competition. I never had a problem (bricks etc.) when flashing roms (I am aware that this might be just a matter of luck, just sharing my personal opinion here), and the GS2, Note, and now GS3 are really stunning and at their time best-in-class devices. (No fanboy here, really tried them all, HTC, Motorola, and in a desperate moment even LG)

Can't really complain about Samsung. Ok, Galaxy S2 quality was a bit...poor. I mean everything plastic makes the phone look and feel cheap - but hey, it was good after all. The galaxy Note ? I'd call that superior build quality, and since i had never experienced any display issues etc - can't complain here either.

What about other products? Laser printer, flat screen TV and computer display - all made by samsung, never had any troubles with them.

So yes, i'd recommend and buy another product. I know Samsung is not the best quality available, but they give you nice product for reasonable price - and you'll always end up with poor quality if you select the cheapets available option, no matter which company made it.
