[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itm:
I have a Tasker profile set to enable wifi whenever my home access point is within range. The problem is that it doesn't enable wifi, even when the profile activates. When I unlock the phone and open the browser it uses the data connection, and doesn't enable wifi. Has anyone else had this problem with Tasker?

I also run Juice Defender (Ultimate). Could this be causing a problem with Tasker's control of wifi?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kezgez:
Could be, I also had this problem when using J.D. Since I stopped using it had no more probs and battery got better!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itm:
"J.E.g" ???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sieepiestangel:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but, if you have Tasker turning off Wifi, as in Disabling itself when out of range, than how will it be able to know you are in the vicinity of a hotspot to Enable itself? As in, its off, it can't detect wifi signals, so how can it know you are in the vicinity? You might be better off using a GPS option to enable Wifi.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlos67:
Tasker will peroidically toggle wifi on to check if you are back in range of your access point. You can adjust the checking period within tasker.

Best to set the time to, say, 15 mins (set as 900 secs in the app).

Hello everyone I am new to Android world as of today. I've been on iPhone for the past 2 years and honestly apple has nothing compared to Android. My galaxy note is like a handheld computer... like holy s**t I'm so overwhelmed right now. But as a noobie I do have a couple questions...

Is it worth rooting and flashing a custom ics ROM (what's the best ics ROM to date) when my service provider Telus is releasing ics by early July?

Also, is it possible for me to download the official ics via ota with a rooted phone? If so how do I do that. I've read threads that sometimes rooting disables ota download.

Thanks for looking and I apologize for being a dumba**.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Are you new to android? Then experience your android phone as it is without rooting just yet. As you experience your phone and read some threads you will get to know if rooting is for you or not. This also will allow you to see if your phone may have issues.

If you want the OTA Telus ICS then I suggest you don't root. I don't believe you would receive the OTA unless you were stock unrooted. So my suggestion would be to hang in there for a little time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Welcome, and congratulations on seeing the light!

The ICS roms we have are awesome so far, with only a couple random bugs that don't keep them from being daily drivers. I definitely recommend rooting and romming if you take the time to read up on everything you can about it. It's a very simple process if you take your time, and definitely worth learning.

Also, if you feel like doing the official update get familiar with how to go back to stock. When you go back to stock, it renews your warranty and also your ability to receive official firmware updates.

Personally, I think that custom roms are better than official, and once your official is released, you will be able to get a rooted version on here within a day out two at most usually. The only time my Samsung phones have ever had stock software is the first and only the first day I have them, and also if I need to do a warranty exchange

Edit: not seeing a stock package for Telus, stop I would hold on for a bit or try to work with a developer to get them what they need to set up a stock Odin package for Telus users.

Second edit: actually it looks like there is a stock package for you. I can help more with some links later, but can't right now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alewis2k12:
Welcome to the best phone world you can imagine and you made a wise choice to pick up the big boss aka the G note...youll love it stock or rooted and with customs roms on it....this community is the best and has some great devs also any rom you choose your gonna love their rom believe me....Ive been to here and went to the htc one x and to the international note and now im back to stay....those other phones couldnt compare to this one...the international note is brick heaven and the htc one x is just too damn small when your coming from a note lol....but if you love having your phone tweaked out like me then yes root and rom it out lol...but if all that doesnt matter than you can stay stock and still love the phone just as much....but once again wise choice on the phone and glad to have you here....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mutantblack:
Please make yourself familiar with the phone first like everybody else suggested. I have gone through few android phones and I still have so much to learn especially when it comes to rooting and loading roms. With samsung, there's a flash counter if you care about warranty and what not even though there are ways to go around it. I have rooted mine but staying on the stock rom and waiting for the official ICS rom. GB rom is perfectly working fine for my needs.

Please read and read over and over everything before you go ahead and mess around with the rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
There is a flash counter reset, so that's basically a null point. Plus, many people have had no problem returning or exchanging with it tripped.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mutantblack:
Yes. I know there is. That's why I said there are ways to go around. I have rooted mine with the one roloracer posted and can use CWM to flash all different roms without even tripping the flash counter to begin with. One less step of needing to reset the counter.

I just want OP to be aware of it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Ah, I forgot flashing from cwm doesn't up the counter. Good point.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ronaldruy:
Wow you guys have been really helpful thank you very much
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
No problem. Here's a good guide for you to read. Just read everything you can before doing anything and you'll soon be unleashing the beast they call the galaxy note.

Welcome Android! The Note is my first Android phone. I also came from iPhone and don't regret the move at all. Note is the best overall phone experience I've had.

This is sort of on topic, is there a comparison thread of the different roms and what they have to offer vs. others? That kind of thread might be really helpful for new and seasoned pros.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alewis2k12:
pretty much the only diff in roms are

CM9 & AOKP have all the bell & whistles ...such as tweaks and etc...

the others are stock based with addition add ons...either way you gonna love it...we have awesome devs in this community...as youll soon see....and glad to have you in the note community...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
CM9 is Android at it's best.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alewis2k12:
I agree coffin but that im leaning toward aokp...love it lol....but both are amazing...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
just know that you will lose a lot of the S-pen and all Touchwiz capabilities if/when you go with any version of cm9, aokp, or aosp.

I'd stock with GB for a few weeks so you can get used to the menu interfaces and lingo surrounding Android. After that, game on! :)

Welcome to Android, friend.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cuiter23:
Normally, when I first buy a phone, I like to play around with it stock for a few months before flashing the radio or switching roms etc. Just to get familiar with the phone. Since you're new to the whole Android platform, you should definitely get used to it first since there are endless possibilities you can play around with even with a stock rom.

An official ICS 4.0.3 has already been confirmed for release, why not wait for it? An official update will always be 100% safer and run a lot smoother.

This is what I recommend and I am going to be patiently waiting for the ICS 4.0 to officially be released. It's just a matter of time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jim Dead:
How many times have we seen a user new to android/note that root, flash, and ATTEMPT to reset the flash counter only to come to this board crying that their phone is bricked? (one or two a month?)

As others said, if you root/flash, when Ice Cream Sandwich becomes available from your carrier, you will not get it.

If you do root/flash, DON'T worry about the flash counter because if something goes wrong with reseting the flash counter, you might have a brick but most likely several hours of panic/frustration trying to get your phone working.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Its more so a new user to xda thing as I see it. Yes, its partially a new to android thing, but if they learned how to search and read and learn everything they can, all of the info is out there to safely do anything. I had one brick way back when with my captivate, and from that point on I made sure to read as much as possible before doing anything. New users think they will just have everything handed to them and it will work perfectly, which is where they run into problems because they don't know of all the common problems and mistakes due to taking the fast track instead of actually learning about the processes.

Bottom line is they need to not only search and read, but also absorb and understand the material that is available on this site.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayRokk:
Perfectly said!

The more a user reads and researches the less cluttering threads we have and the more they learn

Which the MAJORITY of people here don't do..

Sad.. truly sad but let them brick their devices as a consequence :D lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DesignGrits:
My advise would be to wait at least a month, do your research, stay on top of the forums, read all the important threads, etc. When I moved over from iPhone I waited about a month and even though it is soooo much easier to root an Android then jailbreaking an iPhone, its just means its that much more easier to make mistakes. Take your time, don't rush it :) Welcome to the dark side.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
Welcome! Ever since I switched from iOS to android, I've never considered going back. I suggest you start reading up on how to root before rooting and flashing roms and kernels. Get familiar with the device first. If you're confused about anything, XDA is the place to ask questions. Never hesitate to do so. There are quite a few threads already posted on here with instructions. You can also watch "How To" videos YouTube. Enjoy!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cmunho:
I read a ton (from mid March until now) before deciding to root and rom. I just did it this past weekend. I used the site listed above. It was pretty easy.

I'm the kind of guy that will likely only run 1 rom. Currently I have OnlyOne and that was the first one I flashed. I don't have any plan to change it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ronaldruy:
Yeah I guess I got a little over myself I just recently brricked my phone trying to flash roms. got to excited and tried to do everything on my own, I have not read enough and I paid the price. Luckily Telus thought it was a device malfunction and I got a new phone for free. Now I learned my lesson and will do more research before I do anything else. Don't be like me...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpoirier587:
I would have to advise waiting a while.

1. Keep in mind what it means to root a phone. You are giving yourself the highest access and control priveleges on your devise and remaining at that privelage level from here on out. In the IT world this is actually a huge nono for security. Look at what you are downloading. What does the app want for permissions? Why does a live wallpaper need full network access ? Why does it need to be able to keep the phone from sleeping? Malware for android is on the rise but a rooted phone is by far the most vulnerable. With android, the security of our devises rests on us not being brain dead like iFail users. In return we get nearly unlimited potential on what can be ran on our phones.

2. People forget that this is xda DEVELOPERS. If you are expecting a 100% polished and refined product without hickups here and there then you are in the wrong place. Yes the roms are fantastic. We have some real talent working on the galaxy note but don't expect the moon.

3. Don't start trying to root and flash until you are comfortable with the terminology that gets tossed around. If you don't know what CWM stands for then you haven't studied enough. Guides to accomplish flashing and rooting exist but trying to follow along with no concept of what is going on can lead to a lot of frustration if not disaster. If you don't understand why you need to do something, don't do it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sizemore2000:
+1 for OnlyOne!

I don't know about the other roms, but OnlyOne ICS rom lets you keep your S-Pen functionality, and everything runs flawless! Just my experience. I'm also a newbie on Android. Just switched from iphone to the Note a week or so ago. I wanted the big phone, but I also wanted the latest OS. The Best Buy employee put that website, rootgalaxynote.com, on my phone and said " you can put the latest ICS on your phone yourself.", so that's what I did. I made sure to do a lot of research before attempting, but it was super easy. Follow the video guides, and you'll have no trouble.

Should I set the options to never goes to sleep when charging. Actually I thought this would happens automatically. But it doesn't.

Is there any good clock app that works with dock. I would like to have pitch black screen, because of Amoled. Galaxy Nexus Clock app doesn't dim to pitch black.

If you flashed a custom ROM like AOKP, you can use the volume rocker to wake the phone up.

Ive also seen on the S2.. its really fast on the samsung, on the desire s it sometimes takes pretty long until the camera picture is showing, leaving me waiting a few seconds with a black picture instead of the camera picture in lockscreen. So for me, its not usable.

I think its because of the kernel, because it just takes long to activate the camera as it seems
[General Questions and Answers] som1e:
First of all, my Lg Optimus V is rooted with the Stock Virgin Mobile Rom.

Earlier I had done a factory reset on my lg optimus v. I started then it went to the clockwork recovery screen. I did not have a backup because I just wanted it to go to the stock rom like when you first get the phone. I have tried installing the aosp rom and the stock virgin mobile rom. After I have installed the rom, i rebooted the phone. It turned on then went back the the clockwork recovery screen.

I later looked around the internet looking for solutions but could not find anything. I noticed while I was looking that it said not to factory reset a rooted phone. That was my bad. I am hoping that there is a solution to this problem.
