Hy community,

I once was a newbie on XDA (and still am ^^), but with the time I understood more and more things, now I want to give back and condensate the Information I got to answer questions I see often in multiple threads.

there are more and more questions about sense and roms and SOFF and if your phone can control your mind if you take an image of a brain as your wallpaper...

So here is the

officially unofficial "Question's you better not ask"

thread.​

Feel free to add your 2 cents in the comments, I will try to keep this updated with your ideas ;)

The goal of this thread is to inform the users, in order to avoid them asking those things and getting angry answers or blocking real dev work on threads.

No ! It's like if you were asking if Linux has windows in it, if a Ferrari has a Dacia in it...

Explanation : Sense is a framework, it's like wrapped over the android OS. AOKP/AOSP/CM9 based roms are free of this framework and based on the original google android source code.

In the same idea, a sense rom doesn't contain CM9, but you can make it look like with themes or a "de-sensing".

For this exact reason, you need to wipe your phone before installing a non-sense rom over a sense one (or the other side) (even if you should wipe when going from one rom to another, sense or not.

No, It has to do with what is written in the first explanation.

Explanation : Most sense apps and widgets are linked to the sense framework, some more, some less, making it theoretically possible to port those apps to a fully sense framework free environement. However, the camera is solidely attached to the framework, it may be possible, but don't hope for it soon :(

And still the answer is : NO ! you will end in a bootloop.

Explanation : The Boot.img contains many stuff like kernel, ramdisk... and this ramdisk is different for most of the rom's and a boot.img will only fully work with an adequate ramdisk.

However, you can repack the kernell with the zImage tool which is to be found in the forums.

Get used to it: no...

A specific module is for a specific Kernel. The end.

the RUU (ROM UPDATE UTILITY)

its pretty much a FACTORY RESET master file, as it resets everything HBOOT/RADIO/ROM. (thanks bagofcrap24)

Hope I could help some of you :)

It's open to you to contribute to the community and help the once which have less knowledge than you ;)

Cheers

Waist

It's obvious you've spend 'a lot' of time with the intro of this thread.

But all you write is old news as all is written already, 'instructions enough'.

To my opinion this thread won't help anybody because people who don't like to read won't read anyway,

so this thread is another clutter, nothing more to my opinion as it don't bring anything new.

Mods please close?

Thanks!
[HTC One X] ChriKn:
When I started on XDA I was searching for a recap like this, people not wanting to read throught hundreds of pages of a well-filled thread is not meaning they won't read a recapitulative thread...

Is a post trying to help others such a pain for you ? If this can help one person and avoid a single useless post on a single thread I will be more than happy.

I hope you can revise your judgment...
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
You just created a extra thread, nope I won't revise my statement.

Probably you have good intensions, but to my opinion this thread is clutter and a waist.
[HTC One X] ChriKn:
The fact that you see I have good intensions is enough for me ;)
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
I agree. This is the strangest forum I've participated in on XDA. Here's some personality categories I’ve observed.

* Narcissist’s - in spite of a topic or point being posted multiple times in an already open thread, people feel that they're experiencing of an issue is somehow more important than anyone/everyone else's. They have no problem starting a new thread saying "I know this has been posted before, but..." Hint: before you post, ask yourself are you posting for the benefit of others or for yourself?

* Newbies with Attitudes - Not picking on this user in particular but this is an excellent example.

Not only is it naive, it's wrong. Had it been posted as a question "what's the difference between the 2.X and 3.X kernel?" the poster would have realized s/he's uninformed. Hint: instead of coming out with both guns blazing, ask a question rather than making a statement if you're not sure about what you're talking about.

* Martyrs - Yes, the One X has launch issues. More than it should. They're all well known by now. Similar to the narcissists, the martyrs relish reiterating the same complaints amongst themselves in page after page in a thread. Hint: No one here can help you. Rather than ***** pointlessly figure out how to get your problem resolved. I'm not having any problems but it took me all of five minutes to find the two most senior HTC execs in Europe that oversee customer service so those with issues could have someone to write to and seek help. Hint: Don't just post "*****es," post potential remedies.

There are other personality categories unique to the One X forum but you get my point. I love my One X but sure wish it came with SGS3 forum.

the RUU (ROM UPDATE UTILITY)

its pretty much a FACTORY RESET master file

as in it resets everything HBOOT/RADIO/ROM

the closest equivelent i can think of is like ODIN for samsung

you download the latest RUU for your phone

in my case generic (ruu_endeavor_u_ics_40_htc_europe_1.29.401.11_radio_1.1204.105.14_release_260491_signed_c9d22.exe)

plug your oneX in and run it, it will fully return your phone to stock
[HTC One X] ChriKn:
A RUU is the full ROM installation utility from HTC, using it will fully reset your phone to the same state when you bought it (only thing it won't change is the fact your phone is locked/unlocked if I remember well), can't tell you what it wouldb be in Samsung-land ut probably samsungs Odin flashable base rom.

Hope I could help :)

"burned" ^^
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Sweet. :cyclops: ^^

Hopefully when this thread has 56 pages people still bother to find the time to have a search about the answers. :p

And remember if you just search the word >> 'RUU'...... :rolleyes: (top right corner of XDA ;))

But your time and effort is much appriciated I ques. ;)

Time for me to live this thread it's own live and 'unscribe' as I'm getting nuts of the notifications already.
[HTC One X] ChriKn:
Lords and Lady's, let me present you the angry person not even trying to see that the OP has been updated with the new question and answers.

Clap clap for his herpaderp !

Now please, let people decide themselves if they want to help each other and go kill some ants in your backyard, you need to cool down a bit...
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
I'm not angry and I don't need to cool down but thank you! :D

Please, go read back and tell me what you learned from this thread?
[HTC One X] ChriKn:
That it seems to be your pleasure to ruin an effort to help people which might not be as well informed as you are, to criticize without any reasons they way I spend my free time trying to help (even if I only can offer a bit).

Go on, say what you want, my part of this discussion is done and I'm really sorry for this thread to have become such a mess because of one single person.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Nope I'm not trying to ruin an effort, I'm just trying to make a point clear.

I already told the Op that I understand his effort.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
I find this especially galling considering that between us Laurentius26 and I have 1,600 "thanks" and you have a whopping 16. Your heart is in the right place, your approach needs work.

Hi guys. This is what i use as an FM transmitter for my Galaxy and Vortex in my car. If you see on the picture there is an iphone charger included on the phoneholder. I was wondering if there is something that has micro usb charger instead of the iphone charger.

Any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tubifex:
I just found a bunch by just searching for "fm transmitter micro usb" on Amazon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fortemcee:
thank you for your reply. Did you find one that has micro usb charger built in on the phone holder. Most of them that I found have either iphone charger cable or none at all.But what I am looking for is a car holder with fm transmitter that replaces the iphone charger and uses micro usb.

Oh and i have an ipod touch that plays music stored on the ipod via fm as soons as i charge it using the iphone charger cable.

I hope u understood my english as english is not my first language. :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tubifex:
Here is one I found, http://goo.gl/hMuQo
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aznkenshin:
I'm about to get this one. It's the same as above post, but Prime eligible.

http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Tran...icsson/dp/B0053F482I/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fortemcee:
I looked at yours on amazon. If you look at the pictures on amazon it has a built in 3.5mm jack but what I wanted is with a built in microusb (male i think).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thanitos:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002UKTABI/ref=ord_cart_shr?ie=UTF8&m=A2QHBM8MEN9W65

It has a micro USB cable to plug in and an audio Jack
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aznkenshin:
I would suggest that too but it costs 40 originally and the one I posted is 10.50 free 2day ship.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fortemcee:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVHt4BzL0tA

Basically something like this but with built in fm transmitter
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thanitos:
Quality isn't cheap lol. I get the idea your after maybe were looking in the wrong places for the price you want to pay. Let's try eBay
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fortemcee:
Looked on ebay.. Didn't find it. All i can find is with built in iphone charger. Well I guess I'm gonna have to cut the iphone cable on my car holder and try to solder micro usb on it.

I hope it works.

But if anybody finds one with built in microusb let me know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thanitos:
Well you could get the dock for the phone and just buy a wireless radio transmitter that sets on the phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aznkenshin:
Why's it gotta be with a BUILT-IN microUSB? Why can't you use the cable that came with your phone? I'd go with the link I posted in a heartbeat. Sure, you'd need to sacrifice a microUSB cable, but the 2.5mm is built-in. It's also $10.50 free 2day ship. I'm checking out my cart as we speak.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fortemcee:
I have one already with the built in iPhone charger..And I paid like 8 bucks a year ago.the reason why I want with built in microusb is my iPod charges and at the same time transmits my music through FM channel. I also don't have to carry aux jack to listen to my music since its plays my music via FM station. I don't have to carry my iPod charger to charge.

I was wondering if I could do the same with my Galaxy and Vortex. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thanitos:
You have to remember iPhones are not the same style phones as ours. Yes they have a headphone jack but there charger is meant to transfer data to play music while ours is just PC to phone and charge I doubt its designed to out put any type of audio through the charging port. The one I linked is all built in but the price is a tad high. You'll have to choose what will work best but like I said an iPhone style dock is going to be impossible I think
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fortemcee:
Understood.But do you think this might work????
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thanitos:
I'm not sure what the specifics of the item are but it may be worth a shot if not you can always return it

Contact the seller and ask if it will be able to stream music to your radio through an iPhone dock or if it is just a charger
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PMFX:
Best FM Transmitter ever

I just found this on WOWparts.com for only $10.68. It is way better than I have expected for the price. The transmitter is compatible with USB, 3.5 mm and even the SD card. Easy to handle. I drive a lot and this transmitter has made the driving less boring with music. Highly recommend for everyone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raduque:
I had no idea so many people still used FM transmitters.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zzmomo73:
How can I change them ?? I tried replacing them with ones I wanted using root explorer, I changed the permissions and rebooted but no audio sounds came from the phone... how can I do this!?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelk0530:
Try

Im assuming you mean the sounds for notifications. You will need to copy the files into "system/media/audio/notifications" to get it to work. However, it might be different using different updates, roms, etc. You also may need to be rooted... You used root explorer so I am assuming you are already.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zzmomo73:
Yes I am rooted, I specifically want the UI sounds.. but I tried replacing system/media /audio /UI with the UI sounds I wanted, changed permissions and rebooted but no UI sound came after that

[Samsung Captivate Glide] Tyfighter:
So, I settle into the backseat for a road trip from Toronto to Ottawa, fire up the wifi tether and everything seems good. My transformer connects no problem, but it seems that data isn't going through. Every page I try to load doesn't. So I clear my apns and re add them and nothing. So I do a full wipe (data, cache, dalvik) reinstall osimod and try again. I add my apns and everything works, pages are loading, emails are coming in, etc etc. So, I browse facebook for a minute on my transformer to confirm, then after I restore all my crap in titanium, I'm back to the same lack of data going to my tab.

I'd really like to not have to redo everything manually without titanium backup. Any ideas?

[Motorola Droid X2] PCWright86:
I am a Noob at a lot of this, but I was wondering if it was possible to port the new ics update from the Droid Razr to the X2. I know we lack some hardware for all functions (face unlock). But is it possible?
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
No. The X2 has a locked bootloader which makes it hard to easily port stuff. The closest thing we have is the CM9 released by dragonzkiller.

EDIT: I mean it may be possible to get some of it ported if someone who actually knew what they were doing and accepted the challenge like dragonzkiller did with CM9. But I doubt we will ever see it.
[Motorola Droid X2] PCWright86:
Thanks, I'll just wait on dk's cm9 to come out of alpha......
[Motorola Droid X2] Ban-Hammer:
I flashed DK's Alpha 4 and paired with the mash-up mod, it is pretty damn impressive. If you know how to SBF, I would give it a shot.
[Motorola Droid X2] PCWright86:
I am on CM7 right now and I use the mms from the defy. I found it here somewhere. Would that work on cm9.
[Motorola Droid X2] Ban-Hammer:
Only one way to find out ;)

Doubtful. Most anything not based on the 4.0 framework won't work on cm9. The average result is massive explosions. That's the AVERAGE. Go for it son.
[HTC Sensation] sisquoc15:
I updated my Sensation 4g (T-Mo) to ICS via the official RUU rather than OTA.

The phone is not rooted and is s-on. I need to send it in for repairs.

Is RUU allowed under the warranty, or (if they ask) I should I pretend it updated through OTA?

Thanks,
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
what??? RUU is the official one from HTC only (its just that we got hands on it :D)

RUU = Rom Update Utility 9these are internal stuff)

and using RUU is the best way to go to stock

and no way you are stripped of your warranty when you use a official one

and fyi the OTA and RUU has the same s**t ..so dont even bother about it :)

So I finally could root my XPS and then I went to restore the contacts backuped previously on the internal memory, same way I did when I first upgrade to ICS.

Anyone? Or should I just start from scratch?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] amfirbek92:
try to copy the backup file to a friend cell phone and give a try there..if it works then this should be a prob with ur flash so try to flash later the rom..

have u updated with pc companion or flashtool?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Jose Viegas:
Well what I did was reflash ICS from start and it works as it should, restores the backup and so.

I did flash the root with fastboot following the provided instructions.
