[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keegan25:
alrighty! thanks for the info, is cf kernel compatible with cm9? i want to just have one kernel that'll handle most roms, any suggestions?

ive reloaded my old stable phone version, the version i saved before trying to flash cyanogen mod with rom manager, this version has siyah and stock rom, back to square one *phew*
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
i still say wipe first, cm9 will come with its own latest cwm that can be used to flash any custom roms after.

flashing via odin version is easy and fool proof as it has everything bundled for correct working of cm9.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
If you flash CM9 the CM9 kernel will overwrite/replace your CFRoot kernel, which is fine. As I said in my previous post you can stick with that if you're happy with it, or you can flash any other kernel that's CM9 compatible.

No suggestions/recommendations. Because your experience will not be the same as someone else's using a given rom or kernel. If you want to go down that path, try some kernels to find one you like. To see if a kernel is compatible with CM9, read the the dev thread devoted to the kernel in question.

OK. Given you're back @ square one, Atifsh is right when he says flashing the Resurrection version (Odin version) then flashing Gapps/nightly from there is probably a good way to go for you. Once you've done that, you'll be able to flash CM9 nightlies via CWRecovery. As said previously, read that first page of the CM9 discussion thread/instructions thoroughly before you do anything.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rwallach:
Something similar happened to me too. I flashed stock XWLPG, then siyah 3.3.2 and did a factory reset. After that, got stuck in a flashing white screen after the yellow triangle.

What I did: boot on download mode, flash XWLPG over PC Odin once more, did a full wipe BEFORE flashing siyah and then siyah. Everything went ok this time, but eventually I found out that every time I do a factory reset after siyah that problem would occur.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akasaka:
So for some unknown reason today I discovered on my two PC's today that my Google Chrome Bookmarks went SOL...

But fortunes that be, I discovered that my Android Bookmarks were still intact so I'd thought I share my discovery and how I recovered them...

(ROOT REQUIRED)

Using Rom Toolbox I made a backup of my Google Chrome App and I opened the backup data file:

"com.android.chrome.tar.gz"

Once opened I found the "Bookmarks" file under the following folders in the archive.

"\com.android.chrome.tar\data\data\com.android.chrome\app_chrome\Default\"

I took the "Bookmarks" file and replaced the one on the PC.

On Windows 7 it was located under,

"C:\Users\Matthew\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default"

Make sure Google Chrome is not running when you replace the file or you will end up with a empty bookmarks file when you close it to reopen it.

If all went well once you open Google Chrome again, Ta Da! Bookmarks from heaven... as for the other PC I just disconnected my profile from Google Chrome on that PC and resigned in and the migrated over.

P.S. I didn't know where this belonged so I placed it here, apologies in advanced.

XDA blocks me from posting to that developer thread because I have not posted enough! LOL.

Here is the logic for a linux bash script - just download DebugfsRoot_v1.8.zip, point the ADB var at your adb binary, and run it. Worked for me - first time I've rooted the prime after just getting the .28 update. It's a prime purchased in Australia.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cixdk:
Recently I decided to try fixing my Vibrant, the problem was the power button was no longer responsive. I ordered a replacement ribbon and was in the process of removing the old ribbon and I accidentally tore one of the solder pads off. I've spent the better part of the night searching here at XDA, other android forums and google for a way to get the phone turned on without using the power button. Ive come up with nothing, all I can do is get into download mode by holding up/down and plugging in USB.

Is there a way to turn the phone on via PC/software? Or does anyone know of a spot on the motherboard I can bridge to get it to turn on?

Any help would be greatly appreciated as my Galaxy S2 is broken(cracked screen and waiting on replacement), and I'm stuck using a "dumb" phone.

-Cixdk
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cixdk:
Well here I am posting from my vibrant. Out of an act if despiration, I used the tip of my volt meter to scrape away small layers of the board underneath the spot where the soldering pad had been torn off. Eventually I got to some metal looking stuff and turned the volt meter on. Then used the positive and negative points to touch the remaining pad and the metal looking stuff. To my surprise the phone booted up.

When reassembling my phone I had to cut a piece of the plastic board cover(between sim card and battery) so that I could snap it back into place without having to remove the battery and sim card. I also used a small screwdriver to gently bend the rest of it around any areas it was getting caught up.

I need to get a better solder tip before I can make this fix perm. It will work for now, and until then I just plug into usb then unplug to get screen to light up. Additionally I have read there may be a few apps.available to allow use of volume up/down to light up screen thus eliminating the need for the power button.

I will take and post some pictures when I do the perm fix just in case anyone else ever encounters the same situation.

The power button is nothing but a switch; if you bridge the two sides of the switch it should have the same function.. or sometimes the switch may be always bridged and pressing it unbridges it, in which case just unbridge it.

1. How can I do this?

2. Will I get official ICS India update through kies after I update the CSC?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
Yes Odin package is whole stuff.

Yes you can also go that root, GB to ics via kies.

But Odin is better.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
Flash official ICS via Odin, go to sammmobile.com click the firmwares tab then the smartphone link,then the Android link, then your phone model and finally your region.

Find the latest firmware for your actual location India or India and sub Continents, you will need to register to download it, then use Odin to flash it.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RPTheLefty:
Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing a few issues with my One X. I've been through 3 One X's and my 30 return policy is up so I'm stuck with this one.

One of my main concerns is that the One X gets hot while browsing the web. Is this normal? I don't think I noticed the other One X's I had getting hot.

Another weird issue is the amount of RAM I have. It says that I have 391 in used and 281 free. Is that right?

My main problem is the battery life. I'm looking through threads on how to improve it. Right now, I get around 9 hours with 2 hrs and 30min screen time on 40% brightness. Do I possibly have a faulty battery?

Last issue just started happening last night. I can't receive calls, browse internet or text even with I have full bars and it says "4g". It's as if the phone goes on airplane mode but it still shows full bars. To fix this, I have to do "airplane mode" on and off. Is anyone having this issue?

I was thinking about returning my phone and have them repair it. How does this work? Will they give me the same phone back? How long does it usually take? Any feedback from anyone who has returned their phone for a repair?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Grnfinger:
My hox will get warm but not hot. Even heavy gaming it just gets warm.

For battery try a custom rom. King Cobra I get over 24 hours per charge with wifi gps on and data updating 24/7.

Currently im at a personal best at 27 hours and 50% battery remaining.

Ram....I guess it boils down to what you have running, if your running stock Id bet money its bloat ware sucking up resources.

About repair, I have dealt with rogers only, so I can only say this, They tried to send me a refurbished phone once and I told them Id file a charge back on my credit card. I had a new in box phone shipped within 3 days.

Be firm but polite and you should be ok.

[HTC One S] WCCobra:
Install the update before you root the device. Otherwise, you'll end up being forced to remove everything to update.

Of course you install a custom ROM. Then you will need to flash the updated radio and install the 1.84 ROM.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sudeep6258:
Hey does anybody have a solution to this unique problem. I always have a hot battery whenever I use WP7 and is indicated by the alternating orange and green lights in the notification every time I charge the phone after using it for some time. It doesn't charge in this state as well.. I have read some where that because of the over heat the phone has to be left to come to room temperature and then used.. But this is very frequent for me and rarely or never happens in Android.. I have tried all the WP7 ROM's and searched in the forum. Is there any concrete solution.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hjhjhj:
the solution is cool the battery before charging again or you have a bad charger/battery. if still happens with android then by logic there is an issue with the battery/charger. the other issues is you should try not use the phone while charging. of course the battery will heat up.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sudeep6258:
Yeah, I understand that but why only with WP7.. And all I was doing prior to this occurrence was texting and setting a few things up.. That shouldn't heat it up.. And it doesn't happen on android.. It happens very rarely in Android when I have actually loaded a lot of apps.. And I can feel the back is a little hot in wp7..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] KatoGuro:
sounds like u dont have original battery...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sudeep6258:
No man.. It's original battery from HTC I didn't buy any fake battery.. But, as soon as I run WP7 you can feel the back getting really hot.. And the alternating green and red lights :\.. It works fine in Android..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hjhjhj:
well what can we tell you? i haven't read anyone else having constant charging issues esp after using the correct charger or swapping batteries. you may have some app installed that's constantly running in the background that is sucking up power causing the battery to heat up.

besides, asking why only wp7 and not android...they are different operating systems that work differently. why don't you ask someone at Microsoft wp7 development. of course, the hd2 was never meant to run wp7 officially.

and it can be an issue with the version of wp7 you're using...my experience is that some roms run hot.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] mengfei:
I remember this happened once to me BUT i'm not sure whether i wan on WP7 or AnDy or even using the 3rd party battery I got.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] ctito:
It happened to me twice (since I've installed WP7.5 8773, two days ago). I thought it was normal, since it is charging the battery as it should.

The only matter is that the battery sensor is strange. Today it only charged until 85%, and when I switched off the cable it went to 100%, and yesterday I spent 30 minutes with 0% due to my trial to meet the phone with the real 0% of the battery, so it can calibrate itself.

Try to turn off the phone and then put it into charge. It worked for me the first time I saw this issue (because it is so annoying when you try to sleep in a 100% dark place with the phone in a glass transparent table).
