Hey,

Might i had seen on the Rom thread.

Just put .lwt files in the folder

Open themes and you got your themes there.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yeti2242:
My family and I are in the process of switching to AT&T, we are looking at buying the phones through cartoys.com where the gs2 is only a penny. Do you guys think that is a great deal or should I just cough up the money for the gs3. I know that is probably a dumb question, new specs and all or an old phone. But looking at everything I don't really know if it is truly a good upgrade for two hundred dollars more than a perfectly specd and very excellent phone with by looking at it, has a very strong development section. Are many of you upgraded to S3 or waiting for the next , true upgrade to this amazing phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pham818:
i would get the s3 if i had the money.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BROKKANIC:
There are a few really good devs that are on contract with the S2 for at least another year. So you can at least count on S2 tweaking until then.

Personally i'd wait awhile to upgrade to the S3 to give the devs time to work out all the kinks with bases and int'l ports.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TheBIG_Lebowski:
Like stated, if you can get an S3 do it. But the S2 is very much worth a penny. You wont be disappointed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jjbusa:
Yes the s2 is worth it im an iphone convert and got an s2 on trade and im finding it hard to upgrade to the s3 other than the camera..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] locsplitter:
S2 is the best phone I've ever had. So yes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BeenAndroidized:
I would say, if you want to save money it's worth it to get the S2. But if you want the latest and the greatest and don't mind spending some $$$, then get the S3.

Either that buy the S2 for the penny (keep it as a backup, etc.. play phone) and also get the S3. (This would be my choice). ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rduncan1974:
I personally don't think spending an extra $200 on a slight upgrade is worth it , we have great dev's here a lot of good roms. We don't have lte in my area but honestly I use WiFi most of the time as I think using up my 3 gigs would happen way to quickly with lte anyways. I think it comes down to justifying if $200 is worth slightly quicker processor and slightly larger screen ,lte

Svoice (but there is a usable one you can add to our phone)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yeti2242:
Thanks for the input on the s3, now what does everyone think of the skyrocket? I know this is the s2 forum so I can can't somewhat tell what my answer is going to be. cartoys.com is also selling the skyrocket for $50 so that could be a good deal. What I'm thinking the is the display would like better on the s2 since they both have the same resolution but it's smaller on s2 so it would look better, right? And I've heard the exynos processor is better than the Qualcomm one the skyrocket uses. I guess the big think is lte vs Hspa, I know AT&T has great lte but there Hspa isn't that bad either so I don't really think connection matters. Let me know your guys thoughts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rduncan1974:
I777 is much better then the skyrocket but if you want lte get the s3.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] 7.0+:
after doing a little research on the web why it's asking for sim network unlock pin, found out it's because my device it locked with a certain carrier/provider. i made sure it was already unlocked when i got, i was even able to use for about a week. however, for some reason it got locked again and got that message. i'm sure i didn't make any changes because this is my first time to have a samsung tab, that's when i tried to do more research about it and i know there's a way to do it but i guess i need a more detailed guide, please help... thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] devid801:
This program finds the SIM unlock code for your Samsung Galaxy p6200 device. It requires root / superuser.

Simply install the application, hit the "SIM unlock code" button, wait a few minutes, and it should come up with the code. It can indeed take a while, so plug your phone in the charger before running, and go make yourself a cup of coffee.

Write down the code, turn off your device, insert a SIM that doesn't match your SIM lock, turn the device on again, and enter the code when the device asks for it.

If the code does not work, do NOT try it again. You might end up with a freeze. The app can also find the unfreeze code, but if the SIM unlock code was wrong in the first place, maybe so is the unfreeze code.download free sim unlock for galaxy p6200 here:http://www.mobyware.net/get-software-65666.html

........Another method :Step 1. - Retrieve nv_data.bin file

use "adb shell" or a terminal emulator to get a terminal prompt and run the following commands

Code:

su

cat /efs/nv_data.bin >> /sdcard/nv_data.bin

cat /efs/.nv_state >> /sdcard/.nv_state

busybox cp -r /efs /sdcard/

Step 2. - Edit nv_data.bin file

mount the internal SD Card on your computer

make a backup copy of the nv_data.bin file on your computer

using your favorite HEX editor open the nv_data.bin on the sdcard

jump to address 0x181468

you should see a string like this

ff 01 00 00 00 00

there are 5 different types of locks in 5 different bytes

the FF byte should be left alone

the first byte after the FF is the network lock

the next byte is the network subset lock

the next byte is the sp lock

the next byte is the cp lock

the last byte appears to be a data lock.

the 46 46 should be left alone

Change any 0x01 to 0x00 (or 0x00 to 0x01 to lock for warranty)

It should read ff 00 00 00 00 00 46 46 for unlocked

save and close file

unmount SD Card

Step 3. - Replace nv_data.bin file

I want to say it again so no one misses it MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR /efs/ FOLDER BEFORE YOU CONTINUE!!!!!

use "adb shell" or a terminal emulator to get a terminal prompt and run the following commands

Code:

su

rm /efs/nv_*

rm /efs/.nv_*

cat /sdcard/nv_data.bin >> /efs/nv_data.bin

cat /sdcard/.nv_state >> /efs/.nv_state

chmod 755 /efs/nv_data.bin

chown radio.radio /efs/nv_data.bin || chown 1001.1001 /efs/nv_data.bin

chmod 755 /efs/.nv_state

chown radio.radio /efs/.nv_state || chown 1001.1001 /efs/.nv_state

reboot

your tab is now unlocked... enjoy

Just make sure you back up your entire /efs folder (save it on your computer and your tablet) before making any change.I believe you can refer to this one on the 10.1 tab forum :http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1336659&highlight=t-mobile+unlock....
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] jneapan:
Can anyone confirm that this solution works? I'm reluctant to try without a guarantee :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] jneapan:
@devid801

Ok, so I've opened the nv_data.bin file in hex edtor and found the following at address 00181468 : ff 01 00 00 00 00 44 4b . As you can see, the 46 46 is not there, instead there is 44 4b . Is this significant? Do I have to replace with 46 46 or should I leave it alone? Could this mean that this solution does not apply in my case and I risk breaking my device if I use it? Please advise.

Edit: I ignored the 44 4b bytes there and just changed the 01 to 00 and it worked, I am now network unlocked. Thanks for posting the solution :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobos311:
Okay, obviously I was rooted. Everything was great. I went into CWM, when I was going to flash a simple script mod (which every phone can use) well I accidently clicked off into my SGII files (which of course was stupid of me) and it installed fluxii kernel for SGH-i777. (intern flashes a custom recovery for the xx tweaker that that particular kernel uses. Of course, I didn't even realize I had done it, just went to Reboot Now. Now, I've got no Download mode, no bootloader, no anything, just blackness, I feel as if there is a simple key process or way to somehow get it fixed so I can flash it back via ODIN, but with all the confusing button combo's and ideas I've found so far, and all the ' types of bricks ' I dont know the best route about doing this, whomever helps me get my phone unbricked/unsoftbricked/superbricked/cute bricked, which ever version (assuming its possible) I swear on my life I will mail them a 32GB HP touchpad.

(I have 3 and only need 2) so, I hope this in some way will get me an answer soon.

I cantbelieve I pulled a n00b. No more not moving data from SD cards for me ever again...

Thanks, and the sooner the better.

Mail me here, or gmail me ( kobos311@gmail.com) or heck text me if you want (i have my SGII still) just message me priavtely for the number. Thanks you guys you're the best.

I would rccomend trying to use Odin to see if it recognizes your phone? You may have to get a USB jig to force it into download mode and you may be able to save it that way :) I'm pretty sure a jig would work
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobos311:
Yeah thats Kinda my thinking as well unfortunately, Why the hell cant they sell them at like, I derno, the "rooted developer" store? hell Samsung should just include them in the box with as easy as root is. lmao What I don't get, is why the hell someone can't make a ' USB JIG ' out of their computer, or you know, something to tickle that little ports happy spot lmfao
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbonassassin:

I just wanted this issue brought to attention to all the people from other forum sites ive tried to try their methods clearly, Marshmellows and Chicken dumplins wouldnt work, so if we could figure it out here, itd be nice to have it in a smart people zone. seriously someone f'n said, for me to stick my finger where the socket meets the charger... i was like, "consider me "BRICKED"

why cant they sell these damn jigs on craigslist for immediate satisfaction? oh well some idiot just offered to trade me one of my 3 SGII's I own for a note and 50 bucks haha "I WANT IT UNROOTED AND NORMAL" was his email. hahaha
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbonassassin:
Lol, how much would you be willing to sell your touch pad for by the way? And eBay is probably a good bet for a jig. Its just a pain nearly all of them are sent from china so you have to wait like 2 weeks :/

but cash isnt whats important to me, just technology really..idk, hell they're going for ridiculous onebay right now. and err, lets just say mine dont run CM9, or MIUI, hell I have my own recovery, Webos is all i knew for a while. I was always scared to post here, for the number of n00b post haters. I just stopped caring about those haha. I also have 2 Palm pre 2's running Android via a glitch in the Launcher/Wallpaper, and a Pre 3 Running ICS hybrided with basically the apps running in the 'recent windows ' version of ICS....

I really dunno man right now is I NEED TO GET THIS NOTE FIXED ASAP anyone know like a local place to go get it fixed temporarily they've gone to before. hell XDA should buy like shipments of them. we're the only ones that buy the damn things anyway.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbonassassin:
It might be worth a go man. I would reccomend having it plugged into a computer and keep trying to turn it on even if the screen doesn't turn on and see if Odin picks anything up. Its not going to hurt your device anymore :/ you could always go to a hardware store and buy a mini USB and a 300k resistor and trying to make a jig yourself if that unbrick doesn't work (which I don't think it will)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobos311:
Well what do I have to lose? Potentially (with better instructions of course and a noob friendly UI) if it works on my note, ill try it on my original galaxy...who knows few tweaks and maybe all these folks suffering from bricked Notes/SII/SIII's will have an easy way to fix it. (hey guys, just let me be optimistic here.. at least unti somebody else comes up with a bright idea haha

What have you done so far?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobos311:
Fixed. I'll write up a XDA guide, and no I didnt use that silly guide. I used a trick the stupid guy at samsung tech support told me about something on the back of the phone :D will write up in a bit.

it involves a paperclip, and a hidden compartment behind somewhere where most would never dare stick anything, its rather a hidden reset button or something I wouldnt recommend it to anyone however...if someone finds themself in a bind id gladly help, but its that way or shipping it back if done wrong basically I just got lucky.

[TouchPad Themes and Apps] Nomedias:
Running arm7 neon on my Touchpad running the 6/28 Nightly. Works well. A couple videos have artifacts most play well.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] O.a.T.:
Beta warning message? Not sure I even see this as it loads up so fast. Did you have another VLC installed from elsewhere? Maybe a cache/dalvik wipe or an app/data wipe will help?
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] Poussun:
When I say 'beta warning message', it's the little message that appears when the application starts for the first time.

This message comes back after each crash, so something isn't running fine :)

By the way, I tried

* wipe dalvik cache

* wipe data application

* fix permissions

* desinstall/reinstall

Could it be an incompatibility with another application?
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] splnut:
I installed it today and it closes upon launch.
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] O.a.T.:
Hmmm? Just installed the 118 version, again with no problems. What ROM's you guys using? What tweaks/mods have you applied, if any?

Nothing specific installed

* CM9 Tenderloin rom (nighties from July 1st)

* CPU speed adjusted (set cpu)

* ASUS widgets installed

Guys on the AOSP/CM9 ROM----flash a stock GB ROM via PC Odin.

The above you would have found out on your own with 2 mins worth of searching.

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 PM ----------

There is no "safe ICS stock" currently---all ICS stock kernels have the brickbug.

Best way is to go to stock GB and then via OTA---that way you can get samsung warranty service if you mess up and your phone gets bricked.Alternatively, search around in the forum for stock ICS ROMs-there ought to be a few in the dev/general section.And "where there is a rom,there is info about flashing it"

Hi, in friendstream under Quadrasense 1.2/Desire Z is used white text on white background, only weblinks are blue. Is this only my problem?
[TouchPad General] nathlas:
Hi guys.

Before sleeping I left the TP on the touchstone to charge and the clock appeared so I knew that touchstone was charging as it should .

Then I turned off the power button (when it was on ICS ) and when I woke up the TP was completely dead.

I tried every hard reset combination .....not working. I tried every charging method* for some minutes...not working.

I know that my original charger is working because my HP Pre3 is charging perfectly on connect and I suppose that touchstone is working as TP is getting warm on the back .

My TP is running the cm-9-20120623-NIGHTLY-tenderloin version.

I presume that is a drained problem as resets are not working. Not even the plug mark is appeared...(could it be something else apart energy drain ? )

What should I do ? I am completely lost now....

* car charger, original charger with cable, original charger with touchstone, pre3's charger even if it's not the right voltage.
[TouchPad General] mountaindewmi:
When you connect the charger, do you see the home button LEDs flash/alternate? When it fully drains it takes a while before the plug symbol shows up... then again, I had a friend whose touchpad went bad and wouldn't power at all (bad battery?).
[TouchPad General] nathlas:
No....Not at all.

The home button never flashed even once.

But I found out today the solution.

This is the way that revived my so dead TP :

I charged for at least 15 hours the TP with a handsfree mini USB charger at 5v, 0.7mA (instead for the original TP charger of 2mA).

Then I holded the power button and pushed rapidly 15-20 times the home button.

I did the opposite holding the home button and pushed rapidly 15-20 times the power button.

I really do not know which one of these two combinations make the TP wake up.

After two-three minutes after my attempts the plug icon appeared on the screen and I rapidly connected with the original TP charger via cable. Home button was glowing for first time after days.

After half an hour moboot menu appeared and I choosed fast to boot on the webos. That's it !!

It now is charging on webos nice and easy. To be sure that I am not going to live this situation again I choosed to boot on Webos by default instead of ICS through Cyboot.

Till these wonderfull guys stabilize the ICS for the TP use cyboot to avoid such problems.
