You brick when you use different model Rom and flash. Example i9100 to i9100G = brick

I9100G to i9100 = brick

plus we have a leaked jplpc Rom, which works just fine

Perfect !! thank you so much for your replies.

Another question please ,

are those points important when I'm searching for the firmware to install ?

Thanks again !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbenoit:
Hi,

First you root the phone (there are many topics on that).

Then, you don't need to use odin (only for Lightning rom's, but everything is cristal clear with this rom), if you want to test other roms/kernel.

Enjoy.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smasher007:
If you are looking at rooting/installing a new stock ROM/firmware you better check that your Micro USB cable is working properly. A faulty one which may disconnect in the middle of a setup will create a big mess.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BreatheHT:
I just got this phone from AT&T yesterday, everything else is fine, but I just can't connect to the WiFi network. I can scan it, and the signal strength is normal, but everytime I try to connect, the signal suddenly drops to nothing, and it stucks at a connect-disconnected-scan-connect loop. I've already tried flashing the latest RUU (which they say it solves some of the WiFi problems) and read hundreds of threads and articles about this, I JUST CANNOT FIND A CASE SIMILAR TO ME.

Any ideas? This is so annoying because the laptop beside my gets full signal and my EVO 3D gets full too, but One X AT&T just...... Awwwwww any ideas??? 4G LTE is perfectly fine.

What router are you connecting to?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JCon0320:
What radio are you using? If you are rooted and bl unlocked, you could flash the 2 09 radio that is on the devs section. If however you are stock and have no desire to root etc .. you could try restarting your phone, and your router. Also, you could try forgetting the network that you want to connect to, then try joining. I remember having this problem when I got my hox, and tgat did the trick for me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
Is the SSID hidden?

This prevented me from using my home network, and even caused the phone to reboot instantly upon connecting.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Irish Enigma:
Try WPS (I think WiFi protected setup) if it is a newer router. The jist of it is you push a button on your router then select WPS on your one x and it gives you 90 seconds to connect without a password.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rquinn19:
Exchange it. Sounds like my issue I had. But mine father trying to connect could not see any networks till I turned wifi on and off.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] davezaff:
Restart your router.... Solved it when mine was doing the same.

anybody having issues with it not being default when selected prior to reboot. Also when trying to use the notification dropdown to change keyboards, it's never listed and you have to go enable it through settings again.

Also, text prediction is not enabled when using sms notification popup with handcent.

Any ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:

Any possibility of having a CM7 build available? I'm sure there's some of us not a fan of ICS and would prefer a stable and reliable daily driver of a GB ROM.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Appogee:
Nice!

Umm closest you're going to get other than CM9 is this Stock optimized Sense:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1613917

It's not a bad rom though honestly. Stock Sense has its pros, with the optimization it'll be smooth.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Supovitz:
I just downloaded/flashed to no avail. Wouldn't boot at all.

I guess I'll try that unsensed because thats really what I want, not a fan of sense at all. It'd just be nice to have an official CM7 build, you know?

EDIT: I'm so stupid. I forgot I have S-ON ahaha. I'll reflash the boot.img first.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
ICS, and GB will have the same issues. But only when there AOSP based. The GB kernel is a hacked up kernel. The ICS Kernel is built from source, and ported over to our device. If you want stable, hit out a stock based ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nugzo:
I want to try and replace the sense contacts with the aosp contacts to try and fix this issue. While i'm searching the forums and poking around in roms, removing and replacing apps to try and figure this out on my own, i thought maybe if somebody knew for sure if this would or would not work they could chime in. If it will work i need to know what files to remove and what files to add. Thanks in advance!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imstill@g:
I don't have the skill needed, but the only sense ROM I have found with aokp dialer is Paul O'Brien's MCR ROM. I am pretty sure it involves some framework changes, hope you get this fixed up, would definitely use it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imstill@g:
Also, you may want to check ex dialer, it saves directly to Google... plus it has some sweet add ons
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nugzo:
yeah just used his kitchen to make a rom without the sense dialer and contacts, adding the others. Its almost done now. hopefully it'll be as easy as removing and replacing a couple of apks.. probably not if it requires framework changes though :(

So ex dialer is good eh? i wanted to try without going third party first but i am down if it is highly recommended.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] venelar:
Ex dialer and dialer one are my favorite alternatives
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imstill@g:
I am new to third party dialers, but I despise HTC's smartdial, but ex dialer seems like an option, plus it has sweet action like slide to call/txt ala Samsung Touch with, pretty sweet
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] msk:
hi, did you get this to work? I'm also interested in replacing the sense dialer.

[HTC Sensation] allthatischris:
So ive got a rooted sensation that im swapping out for a new one, tmobile wants their phone back soon...ive had it over a week haha.

i dont have my original back up and all of the RUU's available for TMOUS dont work, ive tried them all. I get an unknown error and have also been told the update doesnt match the phone

my question therefore is:

1 why would it tell me the RUU's were no good?

2 how do I restore the phone to default so i can return it?

3 can i use the stock unrooted sensation to help me in some way with the rooted one?

what other information can i give you to help me out?
[HTC Sensation] allthatischris:
So i ended up extracting the rom file from the latest RUU and flashing it successfully

How-to extract rom.zip from RUU (On Windows XP).

1. First download the RUU.exe appropriate for your phone.

2. Run the RUU.exe, do not connect the phone, it isn't necessary.

3. Tick the box "I understand ..." and click Next

4. Tick the box "I have completed ..." and click Next

5. It runs ... expanding the files in a behind-the-scenes process

6. Error [170]: Ignore it, it's not important. Do NOT click Exit !

7. Now, do NOT close the RUU application, just move it to one side so you can see the desktop.

8. Double click on My computer and continue to C:\Documents and Settings\(User name)\Local Settings\Temp

9. Note the latest created folder with random letters and numbers, open it

10. Inside you will find a similar folder with random letters and numbers, open it

11. Inside you will find the rom.zip file, move it out of the folder onto the desktop.

12. When rom.zip is on the desktop right click on it and check its properties.

13. It should be a large file.

14. Now you can exit the RUU application

15. Rename the rom.zip -> PG58IMG.zip

The rom.zip is now recognized in hboot and thus a flashable file.

You can use this instead of running a RUU from Windows with your phone connected.

Place the PG58IMG.zip on the root of your sdcard and reboot into hboot.

Make sure your battery is fully charged or connect it to a power outlet.

Reboot into hboot by turning your phone completely off.

Remove/insert battery, then press and hold Volume down and Power button untill hboot appears.

hboot will search and find the PG58IMG.zip automagically, accept the update when it asks to.

Do NOT touch the phone, it will reboot a couple of times before it finishes..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sefuwl:
Hey Guys,

I've purchased a S3 over the weekend and have a question about geotagging on the s3.

I've come from a Desire HD and have used a One X and I've noticed the HTC phones do Geo Tagging without the need of GPS (I am guessing it uses Google locations?). The S3 seems like it will only do geo tagging when the GPS is on. Is there a way to do it like HTC? I rather not use GPS, I fear it uses too much battery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zanith:
The native camera app only does gos tagging (requires you to turn it on) whether or not it always uses it, android has clever little tracking shortcuts that save you battery.

Yoy can always try another camera app from the market and see if thar doesn't, try Camera 360.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sefuwl:
What do you mean about tracking shortcuts?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zanith:
Like, using local wifi hotspots as a basepoint, internal sensor information. Cellular towers, and your location in regards to them. Look in Settings -> Location services.

It depends how fine a location the app wants which information is used. Given that photo taking is a few second thing, and it takes longer to find enough satellites to get an acvurate position, I don't think it uses much.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
We don't know exactly when the official date it, it was speculated around the end of this month and some say maybe a different month.

We did get a recent leak from Design Gears on a later build of ICS which can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1719432 Thats the closest ICS stock you will get to with it being ATT (has ATT bloat :good: ).

Other options if you want to have ICS on the phone is getting a custom ROM based on ICS and there is plenty on here: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1383 (SKY ICS is a favorite one)

There is also other ones that have no bloat but are still in testing such as CM9 (what I currently use) and AOKP which recently got an official for Skyrocket.

http://get.cm/?device=skyrocket (CM9)

[Android General] Black-wolf:
I purchased a Galaxy Exhilarate last weekend. This phone was just released by AT&T a few days before that. After playing around with the phone, and doing some reading, I can admit, they've done a decent job. Of course, it comes with all the standard "bloat" that all the phones have, but it also has a few nice things too.

For one, reading using the Barnes & Noble Nook App is not bad, esp. since I own a Nook. To read the same books I'm reading on my nook, just tell the nook app the same account you use for your nook, and all your purchased content (including games) will be available. Of course, my Nook is hacked with Android, and I can do far more than just read books on it. Anyway, I'm off topic here.

After toying around with the phone, I decided it was time to delve deeper into it, and look at rooting it. I did a quick search, and, well, there's NOTHING out there on how to root it!

I also wasn't sure how to get into the Android Restore mode.

After looking into it, I figured it out on my own

1) Power down the phone

2) Push & hold both the UP and DOWN volume buttons and then push and hold the Power button.

3) "Samsung" will come up, and then disappear. AS SOON as it disappears, release all the buttons

The phone will now boot into the Android System Recovery mode.

As I'm just getting started, I'll post more when I get to that point!:cool:

To play around (if you just happen to own this phone), you should read the entire post. You can also go straight to my guide on how to root using a workaround I developed with Shaggypenquin and j3r3goss. Here's the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=29566997

Rooting the Galaxy Exhilarate

Hello , I'm new to the forum , but I also purchased the Samsung Galaxy Exhilarate recently. I'm sad to say that although you SHOULD be able to "root the phone using a standard technique for Android 2.3.3 to 2.3.7 Gingerbread" , I cannot. I follow the procedure for rooting Androids 2.3.3 to 2.3.7 Gingerbread (using the attached file that you provided), and it gave me a message stating "E:failed to verify whole-file signature. (new line) E:signature verification failed". I'm a noob when it comes to Androids to know what this message means, however I'm hoping you can provide me with some much needed assistance :)

P.S. I've tried to research around, very thoroughly in my opinion, so this is a last resort of sorts haha

-Thank you in advance!

You cant apply unofficial updates through the stock recovery as it will check to see if it is signed by samsung. Either patch the recovery or find another way to root.
[Android General] androiddeveloper89:
It would be alot easier to get around the e-signature if CWM Recovery Was Flashed to the phone. I will be looking for the CWM Recovery Version That will best suit this situation. I used CWM Recovery to flash Custom ROMS to my SGH-i717 (AT&T Galaxy Note) As Soon as i Find that version I will post it. be patient Rome wasnt built in a day and i would hate for your phone to become one expensive paper weight lol:good:
[Android General] Black-wolf:
I have used CWM before. I look forward to your solution. I think the Exhilarate is similar to another AT&T phone that may already be rooted, but I don't know if one phone's hack/root will apply to another, similar phone.

Anyone else have any suggestions?

Flash a kernel with a patched recovery then install the su files from the recovery.

That's how antsm did it for the galaxy ace 2, try give him a message and see if he'll whip up a quick kernel for you. I would give it a go but I don't have a Linux machine right now. Remember to ask him politely though.

Ok, been trying to get root access and/or do a system dump on the phone.

So far, no luck.

However, I have been able to get the phone to dump its system properties...

Here they are (hopefully, this can be used as a start?):

<Rest of post deleted here due to size/length of post (and not needed)>

I used the ADB to get shell access to the phone. When I type the command "su dd if=/dev/block/stl6 of=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs" I get "su: permission denied".

So, assuming "su" is superuser, how do I get that if my phone isn't rooted???

Thanks for any help you can give.
