I have 4. They are nice. I do think the fit is a tad bit too snug.

Edit: I never knew the North American version was a bit larger. That's why it seems to have a tight fit.

Anyone know if there are holes for a phone accessory? I got this case for the Galaxy Nexus and that one had holes at the top for you to loop a phone accessory through. Judging by the pictures, it doesn't seem like this one has it...

My LG Nitro will boot up, but the touch screen is not functioning. The power button turns it on, the lock screen appears, and notifications pop up in the upper corner, but it will not react to any touch.

It happened a couple of times before but a few battery removals did the trick...not any more...

It will not unlock...What do I do?

I searched around and it doesn't seem like anyone else is having this problem. Thanks!

Hey guys

My S2 was preloaded with ICS 4.0.3 when i bought it. However i have noticed problem with many of the HD games, they run for sometime and crash...

My question is, how can i downgrade to gingerbead 2.3.6.?

I did find my region 2.3.6 firmware on sammobile..so if i follow the flashing steps from odin..the downgrade will be done successfully?

Also how safe is the process?

Also i would like to know how to take a back up my phone in the current state? So if something goes wrong or if i am not satisified with the downgrade, i can go back to ICS 4 i.e. the same condition my phone was when i unboxed it?

Some suggestions and answers would be really appreciated

Thanks

You cant backup your current rom without rooting it. here is a good vid on how to root a galaxy s2 http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s2-i9100-icsandroid-4-0/

You will need to back up your phone using clockwork recovery

You can however download the latest rom using Check Fus you can find it here http://fus.nanzen.se/ This should be safe. this video here will show you how to use odin to flash a stock kernel http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-unroot/how-to-unrootunbrick-your-galaxy-s2-i9100-ics/

you can always go back to ics if you do not like the GB stock rom

Hope this helps

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
Yea flashing through Odin is safe. Just don't mess with the repartition box or pit files unless you are 100% sure what you're doing. And if you're stock you can backup your device through Kies.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] life_trax:
Hi all

This is my first post so please excuse my ignorance and point me in the right direction if I'm in the wrong area. I will try to be as clear as possible.

I have a stock N1 At&T unlocked....

I kept running out of memory (low mem warning) so I rooted my phone.

Using App2sd I moved as many as my apps to sd card ...problem solved.

In an attempt to perhaps gain quicker boots I froze a few apps including the stock launcher as I was using go launcher.. No issues or problems.

However... My problem came when I moved Go launcher to the sd card to gain space....

Now the phone wont boot , it just continually shows the animated "x" nexus logo.

My reasoning is, now the phone cant load the "frozen" stock launcher and cant find Go launcher for booting on the sd card , so It's stuck in a searching cycle.

Question.. Is there a non destructive way to recover from this? I have TiTanium Bkup free which I backed up 2 days ago.

If I do a "recovery" will it un root my phone and unfreeze my apps?

Can I unfreeze my stock launcher from boot mode?

I can seem to find any thread that comes close apart from doing a recovery

I thank you all in advance for your time and your patience in this matter..

I would love your help and advice.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpm:
Just flash your ROM again without doing a full wipe. Reinstall apps2sd. All your apps and data should be still there.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] life_trax:
Thank you

Thank you cpm !! :):)

Again excusing my ignorance....

When you mean "flash" do you mean to use the restore feature on power up?

My next step after this was to flash a CM9 ics rom for a N1 I see U are using one... are there any issues ? could you give me the link?

Again many thanks for you assistance.... much appreciated

I will let you know how it goes
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpm:
If you want CM9 then look at BCM ROM in the Dev forum. You can download it there.

Only thing not working is video camera. You can take pics, but not video. Might be sorted over time. Otherwise a very stable ROM.

Note you'll also have to install Blackrose to repartition your phone.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slack04:
It has to be written into the kernel. As far as I remember, Pershoot stopped adding it in last year. So the answer is probably "no." Search the forums. BTW- it's called "voodoo" not "vodoo" (that will help your search).

It clearly states that it will work on "custom kernels implementing voodoo patches". According slack04 our kernel is not patched. And probably this is the truth, since there is no such thing mentioned in pershoot's thread. Maybe ask him whether the kernel is voodoo enabled.!

[Optimus One, P500, V General] cekuhnen:
Hi there

out of curiosity I am following the ICS development since I bought my Optimus T and to me as it looks it seems to be quite difficult to get an ICS build for this phone which is on a similar feature level as GB. Most builds I found run well but often lack here and there some important tools like camera or wifi sharing etc.

Now my question is how do you judge the future of ICS for this phone? It is not the most advanced model as I know it was cheap to buy. So I am not sure how much incentive developers have to get ICS running on this hardware.

And no I am complaining or crying out loud. I largely am glad that because of this forum I can run GB on this phone because T Mobile did not bother to update this on their own.

I am just curious if at one point ICS might work or if I should better in a half a year or so simply invest into a new phone ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] IKnowIRock!:
Most people say there won't be official ICS for our phone but developers in XDA are trying their best to get a perfect ICS rom work on our P500 :) just check the Original Android Development section and it'll help u...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] aravindsagar:
Most features are working, it's green signal for everything which doesn't uses the OMX libraries.

I'm positive that those will be released soon, and we'll have perfectly fully functional ICS ROMs in a few months. The current ICS ROMs are suitable for daily use, though.

Still, there are many awesome GB based ROMs for our phone, and yeah I do think some features of ICS is awesome, I can manage without them too.

If you can, by all means, go ahead and buy a new phone, cause P500 has old and comparatively weak hardware now. But if you can't, there are a lot of ROMs which can get the best out of our P500, depending on our needs.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] williamcharles:
Future is doomed..enjoy the last android rom version on armv6..:D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cekuhnen:
aravindsagar

the GB rom I am using is working great - it crashes few times on the phone but otherwise only the Radio is very noisy static.

So I am quite happy with it. The phone is pretty weak. At that time I did not want to pay more for a phone maybe I should have a well.

All I am using it for is calls tasks email and thats basically it. I wish the camera would be better because I take many mental notes with the cam.

I think one cannot expect more from it. But I noticed the limitations of Android with such rather weak phones as well and from my experience iOS runs a tick faster so the cheaper solution is sometimes with android with this phone quite annoying when using Swipe and having sometimes quite long type delays.

Ah well.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john631:
I dropped my phone and destroyed the screen, still worked but the screen was shattered and cracked real bad. First phone I ever broke from my own negligence.

I called and requested a new phone and was sent a refurb. After making it clear I was not accepting a refurb and wanted a new one it was sent to me.

I am glad I did since I am now seeing threads on problems with the refurbs. I have had nothing but trouble with them so far; between a droid 2 global and an env touch I received close to two dozen bad phones that were refurbished.

Is there another insurance company that is more willing to take care of their customers? An insurance company that cares about its customers; I know. But I am looking for other options or companies.

I always keep the insurance/extended warranty on all of my phones but all that is ever sent is a phone what was broken and sent back already. I think its a rip off to have a deductible and monthly payment unless there is a new phone to replace the phone I purchased new.

Any input or thoughts? Suggestions on other insurance plans?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Honestly, there is nothing wrong with refurbs. I had a hardware revision .10 Gnex originally, and I messed it up and wouldn't boot. I got Verizon to send me a new one at no cost to me and it's hardware revision .09 but it is identical to my original phone. No need to stigmatize refurbished phones... Half of the refurbs have never even been touched by another owner.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
If you get into a car accident you pay the deductible and get your car repaired. Not a brand new car. So, you dropped your USED phone and you think you should get a brand new one from the insurance company? pfft.... If that were the case every asshole would be dropping their phones at the 8 month mark to scam a brand new one. I'm rooting for the insurance company on this one.

good day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justin94:
Insurance =brand new phone and u pay the deductible.

Warranty =refurbished phone for free

So did u go through insurance or the warranty as Verizon will not honor user error, ie breaking the screen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolqf:
Square trade us a great alternative as long as you don't lose the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john631:
I paid the 100.00 deductible. I know verizon does not cover user error but that's why there is the insurance and why I was not going to accept a refurbished phone.

Maybe they looked at my account and realized I am not that asshole and that I am in fact the guy that has had insurance on my phones since my Blackberry 8703e and have yet to file a claim.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
Insurance such as Asurion is typically a refurb replacement and is not obligated to send a new phone as a replacement. For that matter, it doesn't even necessarily have to be the same model or manufacturer that they replace it with.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
The first time, ask for a new phone, not a refurb.

You're complaining they don't take good care of you when they sent you two phones when they were only obligated to send you one?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Why didn't u just do a screen replacement. =p

I'd do whatever it takes to keep the original.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john631:
Second paragraph first sentence. Haters gonna hate.

Was curious about different options on insurance (not me) and peoples experiences with refub gnexes. I do not know who does the refurb but I personally went through plenty of them with laundry lists of issues.

Maybe samsung does a good job with QC while motorola does not. Broken camera on a the first refurb Droid 2 Global is a perfect example.

The camera is a little covered though, so I had taken a dremel and cut out a square piece to allow for it to show through. Sanded it off and it looks great, doesn't affect the performance of the mount at all.

Hi everyone,

Ive been trying to work out how EXtweaks settings work on the SiyahKernel (3.3.2)...

If I set all the extweaks settings how I like, then reboot and go into my second rom and reboot and go back to my original rom my extweaks settings have been reset. Anybody why this happens and if there is a way around it?

Also is there a way to keep the settings the same across the first and second rom?

Or is there a way to save your settings so you can flash them or reinstall easily?:)

Another question while im here :p Is there ANYTHING I can do to prevent the HUGE battery drain after rebooting my device... Nearly everytime, especially if the phone has frozen, the phone will lose lots of battery after reboot.

So I managed to flash my galaxy s ii the other day because I was having issues with my internet and wanted to find out if it was samsungs firmware causing the issue, or the phone, or just at&t.

Well long story short, it flashed fine, but same horrible speeds. At this point I want to take the things back to at&t and tell them to give me a new one, but obviously the second they see it rooted they wont help anymore.

So I went into the boot menu and told it to restore, that seems to work fine, but then when it tries to make calls there is no sound at all not even a dial tone, but everything else seems to work fine.

I had this issue with several other roms also. I tried finding the at&t samsung gingerbread firmware for my device, but all I can find is firmware for other countries.

Is there an U.S AT&T gingerbread firmware/roms for the galaxy s ii on here that I somehow missed? Thanks.

Also mine appears to be a GT-i19100, I saw some info about reflashing it but all of them had like letter at the end of the model and I dont see that anywhere on mine.

You still using the i777?

My guess is that your	APNs are still set to AT&T.

Also, even if you do get mobile data working, you'll probably be limited to Edge speeds since the two networks use different frequencies for mobile data.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darcw0lf:
And thats something that cant be changed? I learned a long time ago to take what sales people say with a grain of salt, they were telling me since both the tmobile galaxy s 2 and the at&t version are both 4g phones it will work if flashed right.

But then again they didnt even know what data throttling is :rolleyes:

I found a section in my phone in the mobile network settings for network operators, and tmobile is listed, once they finally port my number over in 24 hours I will give that a shot and see if it works. Other wise I will probably be buying the htc one.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Nope can't be changed on the i777. The i727 can apparently be flashed to work on T-mobile's 4g, but not the i777. It's a hardware issue.

You are talking about purchasing a "grey market" phone, likely because it is cheaper than the retail version. I'd think carefully about this. The savings in price are often not worth it. These phones may be used, refurbished, or returns.

Buyer beware is definitely in play here. If you're willing to assume the risk, then go for it. Do your research first though so you know what you're getting.
