[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
Well on the skyrocket you have to root it using cwm touch. You get the superuser as a zip file and put it on your SD card then boot into cwm recovery and install the superuser zip from your SD card. Sometimes it works the first time but most have to install it three or four times cause it says installation aborted. But just keep installing until it says it installed. Until you root you can't freeze nor get rid of those apps. To my knowledge you can't delete files or apps from cwm. You can get the cwm touch file to flash in Odin from the dev section and the superuser file from the post in the stickies on how to root the skyrocket on ics. Once you get root access then you can get whichever app you want to freeze apps or uninstall them whichever you choose. I use titanium backup pro its 6.58 on the play store. But the free version allows you to uninstall those apps but not freeze... there are free apps on the play store that let you just freeze the apps if you wish... just type in freeze apps and shop away.

hows the battery life on this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
After research it needs to have the su binaries to do this hate to tell you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
Would probably be similar to other stock ICS. You would get better battery life by getting a custom ROM, debloating this or tweaking it yourself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cn_habs:
Thanks for the prompt response!

As an Android novice, I am still not clear on a couple of things which is why I decided to sign up here. From what you said above, I gather I can flash any leaked firmware regardless of the carrier? So the newly released Rogers ICS won't brick my S2 LTE currently running on AT&T firmware?

Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
If you look at the development thread there are a few roms using rogers ICS since they're basically the same device the only difference would be carrier settings and thats why there are two different downloads or you can manually set them yourself. The biggest difference between ATT and Rogers ICS is that ATT has more bloat which can be cut down if you tweak it. With custom ROMs the dev are usually the ones that take the time to do all the hardwork and most of the time they already know what to do so they throw in all their tweaks/modifications for a better rom. (Example: latest SkyICS is based off of the official rogers but is modified to run on ATT as well.)

Kernels (usually what controls hardware/CPU) are interchangeable with other ICS kernels.

Modems (how you get your signal/data) are interchangeable with other modems.

Of course when it says CM9/AOKP etc.. they're different than stock ICS so most of the time they're not interchangeable except maybe for modem.

But yeah some ATT roms have been ported to Rogers and vice versa since the only difference would be network settings and preinstalled software.

Running UCLF5, Gmail/Google Voice issues

Flashed UCLF5 a couple of days ago and I've noticed that both Gmail and Google Talk are no longer syncing properly in my phone. I've tried absolutely everything, from deleting cache/app data, uninstalling and re-installing the app. I've noticed that Gmail keeps getting "killed" in the active process apps. After a few minutes after running the program it just ends. I don't run a task killer and I have plenty of RAM so I'm not sure why it stops. The only thing that I can think of is that when I flashed and restored my phone (using Titanium Backup) my Android ID changed. Would that affect anything? Right now I'm having to use the regular email app and not Gmail which is a pain. If anyone has any tips I would really appreciate it. Btw, my phone is rooted, running UCLF5, have CMW installed. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sephyanarp:
Hey guys

I searched but I can't find the solution to this problem. I upgraded from GB to the new SkyICS rom. Everything is awesome except when I see other people's screens they've got the new skins with blue and everything. For some reason I still have the old gingerbread skins. Also on the top thing that comes down I'm not able to change anything like adding flash light etc. Do I need some extra stuff for that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mindmajick:
Sound like you need to flash the second part. Read the first post carefully.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Right, flash the update. People just don't read, wtf man.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
Yeah like previously mentioned, after you let the phone settle then you do the steps for the update:

After that you will see the blue theme.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sephyanarp:
Ah thanks. Yeah I accidentally used the second update file (13mb) instead of the main 139 mb one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paaco:
Decided to start using my phone as a dash cam in my car. After doing a little research on apps I found this to be the best of the bunch. DailyRoads Voyager is the name of it. Seems really nice so far. Don't know how useful it will be, but you never know, I don't use my phone while I'm driving if I can help it anyway. Here's a video of some night time driving. I'll grab a video in the day time tomorrow and upload it.

Think I'm gonna upload accidents or anything else out of the ordinary I catch while driving to youtube. If you have any questions or comments feel free to send them my way. It's a little shaky, I'm gonna work on stabilizing the mount tomorrow.

At 3:12 I hit a fox, poor lil guy. Thankfully it didn't mess up my Mustang with only 4k miles on it ;p

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcUO_VgkN6I&feature=plcp

And Here's one in the daytime I took today. No Fox this round :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIh8NcZJrJQ

Adding a couple pics of the car ;p Will be a daytime video of the phone as a cam added when I get off of work tonight.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] radrian92:
3:14 :o
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paaco:
Lol, poor thing :( I was mainly worried about my car being messed up, it sits pretty low and he caught both tires. I couldn't see any scratches or dents though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Lol, you can see the camera jump as soon as you hit it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paaco:
Updated OP with a daytime video and some pics. If you click CC in the daytime video it shows speed, gps coords, etc. Wish I could get it to display them by default =/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] initial1:
hey what did you use to set up your phone in car to keep it from sliding around? Glad the fox didn't mess up your car would've been a shame. RIP Fox
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Yeah wondering the same thing, what type of mount do you have? The videos look great! I've always toyed with the idea of getting a dash cam, this seems like a great way to accomplish that without blowing hundreds on a real dash cam system.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paaco:
I actually just bought a really cheap mount off of Amazon. The one I am using is:

http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Windshield-INCREDIBLE-BlackBerry-Revolution/dp/B00687N0GK

I hate to say whether it is great or crap yet, because I've only owned it for about a week now. I will say that I stuck the windshield suction cup on the day I got it and it hasn't fell off yet. I'm pretty happy with it so far, if you hit a big bump like railroad tracks or something, it does jump around a little more than I would like, but overall it serves its purpose so far.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] initial1:
thanks paaco

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] thedeamon:
Folks it seems P3100 or P3113 model do not like tweaking build.prop file

After the change is made when phone is rebooted jt just gives a black screen & fails to boot.

So, if you are planning to tweak build.prop to make this model compatible for some games watch out!!!

Better look for compatibility removed apk files for the games you are interested in playing.

Ensure you have stock ROM for your phone in hand prior to making any changes.

GPU in P31XX seems to be POWERVR SGX 540 ( found using GLBenchmark info )

Though the GPU is not bad...many good games say this model is incompatible

DH3 ( incompatible )

MC3 ( looking for a compatibility removed apk )

NOVA3 ( works with compatibility removed apk installer )

NOVA2 always fails

NOVA HD worked with Chainfire3D ( NVIDIA plugin )

Asphalt6 ( gives poor graphics , it needs Chianfire3D set to NVIDIA plugin )

MC1/MC2 ( needed chainfire3D NVIDIA plugin )

Shadowgun plays without any tweak
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] miketoasty:
Did you happen to notice the common theme with your list? They are all Gameloft games. Gameloft has yet to upgrade their games to be compatible with ICS or our tablets. I have played Asphalt and NOVA 3 on my tablet with no issues. MC3 doesn't even work on my Galaxy Nexus (Been in a emailing battle with them for 4 months and no fix yet).

Which brings me to my other point, what did you do to change the build.prop? I (And a lot of other users) have changed the build.prop and the only thing that shouldn't work is sound (Which is fine, just install games and revert). You shouldn't copy over an entire build.prop from another device, I would recommend Device Spoofer off of the Play Store which worked perfect for me and allowed me to get a couple games that weren't working.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] tapan15in:
Do you have a pit file for p3100??
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] thedeamon:
Hi Tapan,

I do not have the pit file for P3100...if PIT file is the bootloader file then we have got stock version of the bootloader from SAMMOBILE , look for "P3100XWALD2_P3100OJVALD3_OJV" in google for download.

Hope this helps!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] thedeamon:
Mike, all I did in build.prop file is change the model info from GT-P3100 to GT-I9000

with ES explorer granting root permission to edit the file under /system

The phone kept working ...but o reboot it just sat on a black screen.

BIA2 is working fine on this since this has PowerVR GPU & BIA2 needs a PowerVR to play.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] tapan15in:
I have already have the stock rom just wanted to confirm that have you flashed this rom without a pit file
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] thedeamon:
Yes I used this without the pit file.

If you need the PIT file for either 8GB or 16GB P3100 , get them here:

http://www.mod2xtreme.com/showthread.php?11722-Download-OPS-amp-PIT-files

Hope this is what you are referring to!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] vontman:
need the original p3100 build.prop

seems like i didn't know that it gives the black screen so my tab 2 7.0 doesn't want to start, so i need the original build.prop to restore it so can any one uploud it to me?

Samsung is now offering a trade in for older phones after you buy a new samsung galaxy and send your old one in with a receipt.

http://www.samsungupgrade.com

I777 is quoted for $140 :eek::):D:D:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Which makes sense considering u can sell one in eBay for between 200-300.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] silver91342:
For those who don't wanna deal with selling to someone, its easier.

1. Buy S3 (Amazon preferred for $150)

2. Register IMEI's of trades and print pre-paid postage from http://www.samsungupgrade.com

3. Ship phone and receipt of new S3 (or Note) purchase

4. Receive check from Samsung in about 3 weeks (able to track status through website)

The I777 is going for $140 but you could also include up to 6 phones per redemption and they buy many manufacture's phones not just Samsung.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
They should have clearly indidated as $140 for a dead, unpowered SGS2, $150 for SGS2 that runs stock ROM and $300 for SGS2 running custom ROMs such AOKP or CM9 ;)

I wonder if they'll give me something for my epix with a busted charging port I'm still sitting on... I've owned enough of their stinkin phones they could give me something (Whatever the first color flip phone was, Blackjack, Epix, Captivate, SGS II and in a few days SGS III)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] grifforama:
Let's be clear here. You CANNOT buy an S3 for 150 dollars. Anywhere.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] silver91342:
I believe target still has it (single/primary= $150) and Amazon (single= $150).

I called At&t and and pre-ordered from premiere to get activation waived and once I showed them it was $150 at target for the same line they offered $50 in credit on my bill.
[HTC Amaze 4G] skyracer53:
I didn't find one in this forum for our phone so I decided to upload and make a post.

to use place the bootanimation.zip in either:

/data/local

(which ever one currently has one)

make sure your permissions are the following:

You should never bring the battery never that low often. Also, fully charging is better than going from 3% to 40% to 15% to 60% to 3% again to 80%.

Extend battery life by keeping the charge above 30%. :)

then flashed zip package rom

then gapps

then wipe dalvik cache

[HTC Incredible S] xpaddiex:
Hey guys, i'm new in these boards, so if this is not the right way to post or the right place to ask this question, sorry!!

I have a problem with my Incredible S; There are portions of the touch screen that don't respond propperly, the most alarming one, the section where the phone-apps-personalize buttons are (mostly because all buttons are always on that portion of the screen). The other one is the section where the 'install' market button is. These sections are about 0,5cm, so the whole line doesn't work.

The screen is in perfect conditions; no scratches, not broken glass, no dirt under the glass, no water, nothing. NOTHING. Phone is barelly 4 months old; bought it factory unlocked.

I tried rooting the cell, flashing clockwork mod recovery and installing several roms to test if it was a software problem; i noticed roms with ICS and 4.0 Sense don't work at all, while other oldies, like CoreDroid with Gingerbread still won't work perfectly but it works well enough to allow me to finish the initial setup (the 'next' button is in the area that doesn't work propperly, and no, i can't flip the phone 'cause those buttons don't flip on those screens). Typing is a pain in the behind though; it's seriously a nightmare.

The problem is pretty much the same as the one on this video on youtube which link i can't post yet (but you can easily find under htc incredible, eh title, tags incredible s touch screen fail not working).

I also tried with the htc calibrating tool, and some others... no luck.

I've seen that many people have the same problem, yet i haven't found any solutions... I want to hear some opinions, if anyone has any, before i decide taking it to repair and changing a perfectly fine (to the eye) touch screen.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
This https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.hermit.touchtest than post results.

If after you have touch problems you need to either:

A. Replace screen and digitizer .

B. Pay to replace screen and digitizer.
[HTC Incredible S] xpaddiex:
Thanks for the suggestion; i installed and ran the app, and the results were pretty much the same; those areas are blank. If i try running my finger through them, it recognizes it as if two different fingers are running around that area but not over it.

What drives me insane is that i'm currently with the coredroid rom, and those sections *SOMETIMES* react (at least well enough so i can finish the setup on the phone and start actually using it). On the opposite, when i'm using any based ICS rom, they don't react at all. That makes me wonder, is it really a physical problem? or what?
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
I have a solid feeling that your digitizer is malfunctioning, however I'm no expert but I don't believe it should vary rom to rom. Maybe the touch sensitivity in coredroid is turned way up and it allows you to press the buttons from outside the area.
[HTC Incredible S] xpaddiex:
Heh, i know, i'm pretty sure it shouldn't vary, but it sorta does... what you mentioned about the enhanced sensitivity on the coredroid rom makes sense though; i tested about 5 roms already and it's the only one so far that sometimes works.

I'll try to buy a digitalizer screen over the net on Amazon or somewhere else and have it shipped here; otherwise i'll just have to wait 'till i go to Ontario in a few months.

Thanks again!~
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onlinedj:
i have tried so many solutions , such as boot_split.pl , but got error "cannot find the magic word"

used extract_kernel.pl, but got "substr outside of string". finally , someone told to use the "dd" command to do the job. but it still doesn't work , because i cannot make sure the size of head,kernel,ramdisk. i try to use the size of boot and ramdisk.img to calculate the kernel size , but failed.

Anyone has good solution?:confused:

Additionally, my device is htc one x.

one situation i confused is that the boot.img from engineer edition rom can be extract,but which from the user edition rom cannot.

Good morning all together,

since I updated my SK17i with the official ICS update, I have problem with my SIM card: Some times my phone tells me, that my SIM card was removed and that the phone has to be rebooted. Other times I wake up the screen an see, that it prompts me for my PIN. The phone looks like it rebooted on its own. Has anybody else of you this problems since the last update? Or is it just me an I should try a new clean install...

My config:

SK17i

4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.431)

Kernel 2.6.32.9 Stock (no root)

Unlocked Bootloader (Testpoint)

Baseband .72

Thank you for your advice.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DragonClawsAreSharp:
Insert the SIM card properly. It seems that the SIM card is not tproperly inserted in it's slot.

It's probably loose, causing it to come out just a little on it's own, and then again placing itself (due to movement of the phone). That's why it is asking you the PIN again and again.

If the problem persists after insterting the SIM properly, go for a clean install. It will make things perfectly alright.

Thanks,

Rick
