I've been trying to wrap my head around this.

Running yakju 4.0.4 on a Roger Gnex. Before this I never noticed anything out of the ordinary. But I never came close to using all my data plan. Then I received a warning of my usage. so I crunched the data screen to get some day to day numbers... This is just "android os" mobile data, not what its also pulling on wifi.

19th to the 25th combined 8mb,

Then on May 26 it shot up to 42mb.

27th = 56mb.

28th = 49mb.

29th = 47mb

30th = 55mb

31st = 45mb

1st = 45mb

2nd = 42mb

3rd = 41mb

4th = 59mb

5th = 63mb

6th = 73mb

7th = 76mb

8th = 81mb

9th = 80mb

10th = 80mb

11th = 65mb

12th = 74mb

13th = 80mb

14th = 75mb

15th = 46mb

16th = 53mb

17th = 398mb!! (now I know why I started dying 1/2 way through the day)

18th = 583mb!!!

19th = cutoff for my period... (barely made it under my 6gb plan)

I deleted anything that was updated or installed around May 26th as well as June 17th. It didn't work. I continued to chew through around 500mb of data a day. I did a factory reset, it seems to help but android os was still 80-90% of my data usage and it was around 100mb a day. So I installed a new version of the os, and for a couple days I though I might be in the clear. And then today my phones dead before dinner and there's 400mb sitting under "android os" yet again!!! not to mention what's under wifi. And the days not yet over.

I am at a loss as to why this is happening and what the heck is using android os. I don't want to have to cripple my phone by un-installing everything and turning off features, but I can't survive too many 500mb data days. I'd be out of data in a week, not to mention it's killing my battery...

Any ideas on how to figure out what's using "android os" so I can kill / fix it?

Trying to add pics but its not going well....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mzxx:
Not sure if you need root to run "top -m 15" in the terminal. OS Monitor should work though. Unhide system processes and sort by CPU usage.

Then you'll see what processes are frequently running. Some people think Google Backup Transit can go rogue for data in the Android OS process agglomeration.

You'd imagine a rouge process would show up fairly regularly if you watched it...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] outcastrc:
Originally I thought so as well so I turned sync to wifi only and also tried with it off. It didn't appear to help. No matter what I can't account for the amount of data we are talking about. I don't have that many pics on the phone to account for a single day, let alone concurrent days.

I just un-installed every single app (the few that I re-installed on the new os) I have on the phone to see if that makes a difference. Try an empty phone and see what happens...

Never seen anything like that. It looks normal far as I can tell...

Just for the heck of it I installed 4.1 jb, see if that solves the problem...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] outcastrc:
Made it 12 hours on mobile and only used 2mb of android os data. Looks like 4.1 could be my solution to this problem.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Jackal239:
Hello everyone, I rooted my phone around roughly this time last year. After that I have been using the latest variations of ARHD. So far I love it. That being said, I have seen many posts say that it is recommended to flash a new radio with it. I distinctly remember reading at the time that this was a potential dangerous venture and should only be attempted by those with a veritable cornucopia of experience. I look now and it appears to be doable with have root access alone. I have scoured guide after guide and can't seem to find a simple, low step process to simply flash a new radio.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys just a quick one,

Coming from Aussie stock, moved to paranoid Android and love it. However, I've lost H+ connectivity.

I had a read through the paranoid qanda and couldn't find anything... is it a matter of flashing a compatible modem in ODIN? Do I have to find an ICS modem or will GB do?

Plus, will it be the same solution for all roms?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoux:
Change your modem. No difference between an ICS or GB modem. You can do it either using ODIN or CWM. You can get the modem from http://galaxynote.rgreat.ru/Modems/.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VincentRC:
Geoux, youre a good man. Ill give it a bash, it can be done in CWM correct?

Thanks mate

Edit: Actually, do you know where Id find the modem that I should be using? I checked out ketans list, but it doesnt list modem.. It lists CDC and PDA

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] citricube:
I've been using my Acer A100 nonstop since I got it, a month ago the camera went got that fixed at the Acer Service Center. Now the other day I was running too many apps and It was performing sluggishly so I pressed the reset button and It hung on the android logo. Being impatient as I am I tried pushing a Honeycomb update to downgrade it. It hung about 3/4 of the way. Now when I try using any update I'm stuck on the android update error image. I tried doing the Acer factory reset but instead It yielded the bootloader so I was hoping there was some way I could patch it through there. Any help would be greatly appreciated It would suck to have to send it in for repair yet again.

Hi - can this tar be installed using Mobile Odin Lite and the i777 flash kernel? Or do I have to use heimdall or desktop odin only?

Did you even read the OP?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tophaholic:
Dude...i am not asking about custom kernel - my question is can i use mobile odin to flash the root injected stock tar.

Like he said he says you can in the op

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Mobile Oden will flash from a tar file. I haven't tested it but I assume it will flash everything in this tar file, since there are no boot loaders. Since you are asking, I assume you are already rooted in have mobile oden.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Tophaholic:
Thank You!!!...someone finally gets my question. Its so easy on these forums to say "did you read the OP?" of course I did - not once but 10 times. but did not see anything about using mobile odin for flashing the tar file.

Yes I am rooted and have been toying with various ROMs and kernels. Was thinking about installing the stock UCLE5 with stock kernel (take the risk) and see if I like it. If not will install a custom kernel with CWM.

one more question for you - The brick bug that was there on the leaks was only if u restored from CWM after flashing the leak? So if I flash the above official release and keep the stock kernel whats my risk if I do not restore from CWM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
No. I don't understand all the internal details, but I think it is when erasing from eMMC memory. Thus a wipe data/factory reset will also damage the chip, and maybe a few other operations.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Slavestate:
You could always untar the whole archive and copy all the pieces to your phone for Mobile Odin.

The eMMC dealio is some erase method they compiled the kernel with that happens to corrupt the memory when you wipe. Its both a kernel problem as well as buggy firmware with the internal memory.

Battery Question.

Installed this ROM with no problems. Interestinly I can once again use KIES which I couldn't since rooting with other kernels, and ROM's. My question is has anyone had issues with batrtery performance since the ROM install as my battery life seems to be really dismal?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dhaval33:
Ok so just to get it clear....i can wipe my UnNamed and install the package in cwm without encountering the flash problem and just to be safe i can install a custom kernel to replace the stock. Usually i would install it with cwm then why do i have to use mobile odin or any other methods stated here. is it because of the eMMC chip issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Yes, you have it right. And the reason you can't use ClockworkMod Recovery is because the stock rom has a stock kernel with 3e recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dhaval33:
Ok i see thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Yes, you have it right. And the reason you can't use ClockworkMod Recovery is because the stock rom has a stock kernel with 3e recovery.

I mis-read your original question. I gave you the wrong answer. You can not flash a tar in cwm. You will need to use Odin or Heimdall from a personal computer. Or, since you are coming from UnNamed, you can install Mobile Odin and flash it from your phone if you wish.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] G4 Man2:
I'm having trouble getting my s2 recognized by odin, I've tried the drivers on the samsung site and the ones that come with kies mini and odin still doesn't recognize it. Can anyone help me?

Okay now im using the drivers from the not mini version of kies and it detects the phone but it now shows 2 different ID:COMs. I'm not sure if thats normal or not, i think one is the samsung mobile usb modem and the other is the samsung mobile usb cdc composite device.. It lets me select which one i want to use but idk which one i want to use and idk which is which..

Nevermind. idk what the other thing it detected was because i have nothing else plugged into my computer but i unplugged the phone and the first port went away on odin and the modem and cdc composite device both left the device manager so i plugged it back in and just clicked the first one and now it works
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dhaval33:
Ok so do i need to wipe and then use mobile odin or no wipe will do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
You should always wipe when changing from one firmware base to another, to avoid fc's and other problems. In this case, do the wipe before you flash UCLE5.

ok thanks for the help!:D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
I don't fully understand your question.

You should flash from Odin. There is no ClockworkMod flashable version.

As the OP says, you will be safe from potential brick if you immediately install a custom kernel, choosing from among the ones listed in the OP.

If you care about the existing flash count, once you have ICS installed, you can use Triangle Away to reset it. Or you can use a usb jig to reset it.

Nevermind. I found what I needed. In the first thread :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
It isn't very intuitive, but you need to flash UCLE5 plus root over UCLE5, using Odin first. Then install a custom kernel. And be sure not to do a wipe data/factory reset until after you have installed the custom kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dross333:
Once I have Odin opened and put UCLE5_Stock_Rooted.tar in the PDA slot in Odin, whats next? I thought I remebered that I had to put the phone into download mode or something like this first, but I could be wrong as It's been a while.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Open Oden on the desktop first. Then put the phone into download mode by holding vol- and vol+ while plugging in the usb cable. Odin will detect the phone. Then with the tar in the pda slot, press start.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xK1LLSW1TCHx127:
very quick question

Hello, just need some quick clarification. I read the OP: this contains eMMC superbrick bug.

Basically, I can root 4.0.3 UCLE5 with the package and be safe as long as:

1. I don't do a factory reset from the ROM, use clockworkmod instead

2. Install a different kernel (siyah perhaps?)

Is that basically how it goes down?

PS: not planning to factory reset/wipe since i am only rooting
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
You will be safe so long as you do not perform a wipe at all.

I highly suggest that you install a 3rd party kernel tho - if nothing else as a safety measure.

There is a ton of great information hidden away in the OP of this thread to help you do just that. creepyncrawly has made it easy to enjoy being rooted on UCLE5 and to also install a CWM enabled kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xK1LLSW1TCHx127:
Great thank you =) Just out of curiosity, is there a Kernel that is highly recommended for the i777? Right now I'm looking at Siyah ICS and Cherrypicker. I've heard of Overclocking issues on Siyah with Shostock2. I also know Siyah is auto rooting, which means i can just flash it with Odin to obtain root, correct? (I mean that would get me root and a different kernel, two birds with one stone=))

Thank you very much for your help :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
You cannot use Cherrypicker. as there is not a no_swap version available that I am aware of.

Again, the OP of this thread has valuable info regarding available kernels - although the Cherrypicker kernel will not work since, as I stated earlier, it does not have a no_swap version available. The Siyah v3.3.3d kernel is actually the newest Siyah code available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
What? There's an AOSP version and a Touchwiz version (based on Entropy's source). Are you saying that both versions are mic swap?

If that's the case, then why does creepyncrawly have that as an option in the OP?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
As far as I am aware there was never a no swap version of Cherrypicker. Yes, both versions are mic swap.

I dunno, you'd have to ask creepyncrawly! :laugh:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
That guy better stop making wrong assumptions!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Viper32:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xK1LLSW1TCHx127:
I know siyah will auto root. Since this is also simply a rooted kernel, either method (using this Odin package or flashing siyah via Odin) should be equally safe, correct? Thanks in advance
