5. Copy the update file and the .crc to /cache

6. Open /cache in a file browser of your choosing that will prompt you which application to use instead of opening the .zip file itself (ES File Explorer seems most popular)

7. Tap on the .zip and open it with ROM Manager

8. Don't check anything in the popup and reboot recovery

9. It will flash and finish

10. Done! I recommend factory resetting again here. Reroot if you want.

If you're on a previous ICS leak, above .79

- PUT THE .206 UPDATE FILE ON YOUR EXTERNAL SD CARD FIRST.

You will not be able to use your RAZR to put the files on the SD card after you begin. Please do so beforehand.

- Open the Droid Razr Utility 1.6

- Turn your phone off, & then turn it back on holding VOL DWN and PWR to boot into AP Fastboot

- Select Fastboot to .181 in the Utility & follow the onscreen directions

- Let it complete. There will be quite a few errors, don't panic - this is normal.

You are now on what we coined "Psuedo-.181" - some weird hybrid of GB and ICS files. Your phone will not boot at this point.

- Open the unstick ICS tool

- Choose the newest (.20X) kernel

- Let it install, and reboot.

Because of this kernel upgrade, you are now able to flash ICS again... even a later version.

- Turn your phone off

- Hold VOL DOWN + VOL UP + PWR, then use VOL DWN to go to "Recovery" and VOL UP to select it

- Press VOL DWN + VOL UP to bring up the menu

- Navigate to "Apply update from external SD"

- Select the .20X zip file you downloaded.

- *IF IT FAILS THE FIRST TIME, TRY THIS PARAGRAPH AGAIN*

And now you're on the new ICS!

If you want root afterwards:

- Turn on your phone and let it boot normally

- Set everything up, and then turn on USB debugging

- Turn off your phone

- Hold VOL DWN + PWR to boot into AP Fastboot mode again

- Open the UnstickICS tool on your computer again

- Install the .85 kernel

- Turn your phone off

- Hold VOL DWN + VOL UP + PWR, then use VOL DWN to navigate to BP Tools, and VOL UP to select it

- Your phone should boot normally.

- Open the Droid Razr Utility 1.6 and select Root ICS.

- Follow the onscreen directions, pressing a button when it finishes rebooting, 3x.

- Turn your phone off again.

- Hold VOL DWN + PWR to boot into AP Fastboot again

- Use UnstickICS to flash the kernel of the version you want to upgrade to again

- Reboot

You need to do this, because the 4.0.4 kernel is not vulnerable to any root exploits. Going back to a previous kernel (in this case, 4.0.3) will allow you to exploit and obtain root, and then upgrade back to 4.0.4.

If you have any questions, I'll be glad to help.

wOw

Wicked dude.

A friend and I were trying to update his Wind LGP999 phone from 2.2 to 2.3. So we followed the instructions from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1327929 and things were going good until we got to the connection part. The program continues to freeze and close and the phone is stuck on the s/w update please wait while updating screen. Now we've tried hard reset and even tried to reinstall V10G_00 but the program still freezes. I've been doing some research and unless I haven't searched enough I haven't seen any thread or post with someone with the same problem. So any help in this would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: Done some more research and found How To Load a Custom ROM by David Cogen from The Unlockr and follower his steps and things seemed to work out pretty well but I still get this screen can anyone please help with this?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
You need to use nvflash to install clockwork recovery then you will be able to install whichever rom you want. There are a few threads out there showing how to install the recovery permanently.

Don't worry you aren't bricked ;)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingsKnight21:
Thanks for the post but I've already used nvflash to install CWR and have tried multiple roms and all have ended in the same way. I know I've been doing it right because I even followed the video from the unlockr to the T but at the end where he reboots I instead get the same screen in my earlier post. Is it possible I'm doing something wrong or maybe using the wrong roms?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
Its most likely you are just missing a step somewhere. Try heading to the Hellfire rom help thread and read through there see if your missing something.... Usually this is a cut and dry process I don't see how its not working for you ...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingsKnight21:
Thanks for thee help I really do appreciate it. And I do believe I found the missing step, some where along the line I thought flashing and rooting where the same so when I flashed CWR I didn't root the phone before I started. And since I'm stuck on that screen does that mean I pretty much screwed?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
Not at all. Just use nvflash rom for recovery. It will put completely stock tmo 2.3.3 . On phone, sorry no links. Search for that and it should give you a bootable phone. Then just nvflash cwm recovery and flash rom of choice. Don't forget to wipe data. No root required.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingsKnight21:
I dunno if mentioned before but when I used the method from these links http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1327929 & http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1473781 once I had gotten to installer update part it had a connection error which brought me to my present situation also now whenever i tried to repeat the process the program freezes and crashes. If it were my phone I'd just forget the whole thing but since it's my friends I'd rather fix this problem if possible.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
This is what I meant: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1248644 That should fix it, and then follow this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056847 and you should have cwm.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingsKnight21:
Well i followed the link and the instructions and now the phone wont even turn on. So the question is what now?

Edit: Battery was dead, charging now
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
No white LG logo? Or nothing at all? Which link were you following? If it was the first one, then you may want to try it again, I was in the same situation. Not even backlight worked, but I used the NVflash script again and it booted to T-Mobile official 2.3.3 unrooted. Did you hold the volume buttons the entire time?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingsKnight21:
Battery was just dead, it workin now and thank you very much for the help :D

Hi, I currently have GingerDX v26 on my X8... stock kernel. But I think its getting a little slow... when I have to answer, all the animations and stuff make my phone slower. Is there any good ROM that can run smooth? or any modification to GingerDX :S... I just want my phone to be smooth so I can run apps without crashing cause of the memory usage (instagram for example).

I was thinking about PrimeHD but it requires a new kernel and I don't know if its safe or something.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superuser_:
PrimeHD is for stock kernel to,try the v9,

Just flash it over GingerDX without full wipe

Install and reboot
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mayank77:
My personal opinion is PrimeHd.

go for either v7 or v8

For me v9 proved to be a battery drainer.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superuser_:
I didn't notice a massive drain yet

The v9 is more stable,more fast and the scrolling is superb.. especially in browser
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoccX8:
I have gdx v27 with alf kernel, with stock I have a same problem as you, but when i put a alfs kernel i get faster, smoother and better rom with no bugs on answer and animations :))
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xwalero:
Hmmm.... I will try PrimeHD with stock kernel, and then I could install a new kernel.

But... can I go back from custom kernel to my stock kernel?

thanks (:
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ->Sid:
Yes.. there are stock kernels available of our x8/w8 similar to naa and alfs just flash it..
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mayank77:
Well ,the new version of GDx (v027) is what impressed me.

Try that if you haven't been able to find a good ROM.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Metallimaniac:
So, ive been using GingerDX since v023. Yesterday i flashed the new version (27) and boy, I am really impressed with this ROM. Last one i was the v025, and was a very good, fast and smooth ROM. But TeamGingerDX did and unbelievable job in v27. Even stable, faster and smoother.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] praveenkumarkm8:
For stock kernel you can use GingerDX v27 or PrimeHD v9 buth works great :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faraz_fireboy:
I think the most efficient way to boost your phone's speed is using "Supercharger v6" and also configuring android's internal taskmanager to a more aggressive balance.

Hope these can help you.

Also performance settings can have a great effect on your phone if they are set right

That are a few apps the force it. Your issue is due to Google removing the native Android coding to sync Facebook without the app.

The default Facebook sync works for me, but the pictures are low res and blurry. I'm on ICS 4.0.4 too. The best app for Facebook sync is HaxSync.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] orphan22:
hi

i recently got a nexus from google.

it woks like a charm but i notice i have never gotten 4G on my phone.

i know there is cus my friend has 4G on his GS2.

so any one knows why is my phone not connecting to 4G network?

any help will be appreciated :)

PS: the APN i have is epc.tmo.com
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] C0dy:
HSPA+ (the H icon) is the same thing as T-Mobile's "4G."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] orphan22:
its weird, i get a 3G icon then it changes to an H. but when i go to settings i dont have the network mode option to choose from.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
It wasn't built to display HSPA+ as 4G for T-Mobile.

Google and rest of Europe considered it plain old 3G.

HSPA+ is not true 4G. It's considered 4G because it's almost as fast as 4G but it's not and people don't mind being tricked by that. They want to feel good about their phone. So they simply accept it.

I would just to brag about it. =p

Look at the AT&T 4S, it has HSPA+ but they don't advertise it as 4G. They just say it's faster then normal 3G.

That's why all my friends on AT&T with a 4S and jailbroken just get winter board and change the 3G to 4G and say they got 4G.

It's as fast so they say, "WTH!!! Let's make people feel like they got 4G and see a symbol that says so, even though they know they don't."

That is why you dont see 4G.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] orphan22:
Ahh ok. Im asking cus someone told me i needed a new sim card. But thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Yeah I understand why you would be confused. U assume it's 4G since it's as fast. =p

I'd do the same unless I'm told. And since I found out when the 4S came out (I was confused at first), I learned it's just simple 3G on steroids.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Actually one of the firmware updates to the 4S revised the indicator so now it *does* say 4G on AT&T. Which is frustrating because non-technical types now say things like "Well my son didn't get 4G on his Verizon 4G phone in our area, but I get 4G on my AT&T iPhone, so I guess AT&T has better 4G."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
I know. :(

Advertising something that is not true. They can trick people into thinking that the AT&T 4S is better and make people think they have more 4G coverage.

Technically it does since it's considered just as fast. But technically isn't good enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JaiaV:
The iPhone 4S utilizes HSPA+ just like the Galaxy Nexus. The only difference is that the 4S has an HSPA+ radio that is limited to 14.4Mbps, just like early T-Mobile HSPA+ devices like the G2x. The Nexus has a 21Mbps radio. Functionally, there isn't a whole lot of difference.

Fortunately, we should see true 4G in the states soon, as T-Mobile plans to roll out LTE-Advanced; which, unlike AT&T, Sprint and Verizon's LTE, is the version that actually complies to all of the initial 4G standards, which are not limited to speed. Unfortunately, it will likely still be quite a while before we see speeds of 100Mbps / 1Gbps, which are also one of the requirements. The backhaul and infrastructure for such a network simply aren't utilized in the US. Also, I don't think we really need speeds like that. The initial LTE we have now is still a battery drainer, where HSPA+ still excels in efficiency. The main benefit of LTE and LTE Advanced is changing from a circuit switched network to a fully IP based system, which HSPA+ partially supports.

Correction: The 4S uses HSDPA+HSUPA, which is close but not identical to HSPA+.

HSDPA+HSUPA Release 6

HSPA+ Release 7

LTE Release 8

LTE Advanced Release 10
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
3G is UMTS. 4G is HSPA/HSPA+

4G and 3G are not the same in these terms.

"Long is the way, and hard, that out of hell leads up to light."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
T-Mobile's LTE gonna be at 48mbps correct??? Gonna be damn fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Here's Verizon speeds. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JaiaV:
T-Mobile's HSPA+ is already at 48Mbps in most cases. No word on the max speed for LTE Advanced yet.

Keep in mind that maximum theoretical speed and maximum real usage speed are two different things, but LTE Advanced supposedly reduces a lot of the issues that HSPA+ has, including the speed degradation that HSPA+ has when it comes to distance from the tower and interference.

Also, to be honest, speed tests are just like benchmarks. They really don't show realistic results most of the time. Besides, most of us really only use about 250kbps-3Mbps in actual real time usage, at best and on high load.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Verizon got to play serious catch up on speed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
They're already on 48mbps HSPA+. When they deploy LTE, it'll be LTE-Advanced, which is the next iteration above the current LTE deployments by AT&T/Verizon.

cool story.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Verizon gonna do this too???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JaiaV:
Verizon's still busy implementing Release 9 LTE. Less incentive for them to upgrade to LTE Advanced, but possible the groundwork has already been laid for it, not entirely certain of what the differences between the hardware needed at the cell site or the hardware needed in the handset have to be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Bet it's gonna **** on the battery.... again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JaiaV:
LTE is quite horrible for battery life. I'm not sure what the difference LTE Advanced will make. I do know that one of the reasons LTE battery life is poor is that LTE coverage is relatively sparse for the time being, as the radio is having to work harder to get and keep a signal than it would if LTE coverage were as prevalent as HSPA+ coverage is.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkhan1:
