It soon adds up when you look at some of the /system/app file sizes SVoice alone is 30mb!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stcloud:
after using the search forums tool actually found the same question i was wondering myself about how large the new S3 roms were compared to something like the CM10 rom. Thanks x.mi for asking the question and to the2rrell and Lennyuk for their answers! I love this place!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Bloat-apps and the not-so-light-UI Touchwiz. If you check very lightweight ROMs in the development section, you'd find them to be around 300mb (or 250 if they're very light). AOSP ones are even smaller.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1manwolfpack:
I have a Samgung Galaxy S2 i9100 from Bell, Canada.

I was trying to root it using this method http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631934.

I accidentally flashed the GB kernel, not knowing it meant Gingerbread. I then proceeded to flash the ICS kernel, thinking it would replace the GB one, but now my phone wont boot, it just stays at the screen with the yellow triangle.

Any help on how to fix this would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Note: I have rooted my phone and installed custom ROMs before (CM7), so i have a general understanding on the matter, just I don't know how to fix it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuvpsi:
Try entering cwm recovery by volume up home and power. If that doesn't work do volume down home and power. Then install a ics Rom and kernel via Odin.

If you need more help ask me.

Thank me!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Your main issue is if you flashed any kernel from that thread you linked, you flashed a kernel meant for an I9100

G

. You said you have an I9100 from Bell, which probably means you either have an I9100, or an I9100

M

. Check the label under the battery for model number to know for sure.

I9100G firmwares and kernels are not compatible with I9100/M/P/T due to processor/SoC differences.

You want this thread instead.

Download a stock firmware from www.sammobile.com and flash through odin. Then start the process again using i9100 kernel
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1manwolfpack:
Thank you guys, I managed to fix it by flashing a bootloader through odin. Now time to root it RIGHT lol. I'm going to try ctomgee's link thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
So did you confirm you have either an I9100 or an I9100M?

If so, stay away from I9100G firmwares/kernels/ROMs/etc.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] chucky7910:
So I'm interested in rooting my droid razr. My first question is what are the advantages. I just rooted my transformer prime and there were some really awesome tweaks that make the device much faster...is this the same for the razr?

I know from my searches that the root tool is here:

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] heeroyun:
Root it with the Ultility then use Ota rootkeeper to backup su. Then update to 4.0.4, restore the SU after that.

Use titanium backup to freeze the bloatwares is the first thing you could try.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] chucky7910:
This might be a stupid question but I'm on 4.0.3 now how do I upgrade to 4.0.4 and what is the difference.

never mind that was a stupid question I already have 4.0.4 (yea I know I'm a n00b).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MarkyG82:
Personally I don't think there is much point in rooting unless you want to try cm9 or miui. As the boot loader is locked there are no custom kernels which for me are the main reason for gaining root access.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CenturionFive:
I am preparing my kindle fire to sell it. It was rooted using KFU but still uses the default home screen. I rooted it mainly to use google apps and get access to Google Play

I need to remove my google account and deregister with Amazon. Do I need to do anything else?

Cen5
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
Are you selling to a friend that wants Gapps or sending back to amazon/ someone who might cause a small explosion if they don't have stock amazon on the device? For the former I would suggest wiping the device using TWRP and flashing a fresh install of MoDaCo which comes with all of the fixings that one would need to enjoy kindle fire at its finest. For the latter, a good, old fashioned, factory reset will do everything you need :)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CenturionFive:
It's going to my 12 year old niece. Root is not needed but would be nice for access to gapps and the Play Store.

I did the 'factory reset' and it left the bootloader alone. Will it still be rooted so I can sideload gapps after downloading them from my dropbox or sugarsync account?

Cen5
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
I'm not actually sure of that but do you have TWRP/FFF on your device or is it just rooted?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
Wiping cache, dalvik-cache and factory reset is enough.

Gapps will stay, but none of your information will be retained. It will stay rooted as well.

If you have FFF and TWRP installed, let them be. Otherwise, you may want to install them, even if you're not actively planning to use them - they are a nice extra layer of safety.

However, as it is the stock ROM, it is vulnerable to Amazon OTA updates, which do wipe TWRP, FFF and unroot (they may wipe gapps as well, I don't know about that). A preventive measure if you wanted to keep loyal to the stock looks would be to flash the MoDaCo custom ROM.

[HTC Wildfire S] droid000:
MIUI v4 definitly! Great work!
[HTC Wildfire S] Royal King:
I guess people are not posting on MIUI's thread because it is not as stable as other roms. (I guess).

I love MIUI but as of now, I don't really wish to flash a new ROM and start all over again. I'm still using CM9 Alpha2. Got time to update it today.

I'm looking forward to use MIUI next :)

Y u no robotomod :'(

Nah I kid. I know why Henry, you said in the OP.

MIUI because its beautiful

Paranoid Android because it exciting

tried wiping battery stats, dalvik cache, factory reset.

nothing works....

As I write this (10:49 CT), the search function on the forums has been down for about 45 minutes or so. The entire forum was down for about 5 minutes. The main site never was.

I'm not complaining. I'm curious. And if there is no such thing then perhaps this would be a worthy addition.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] laughstock01:
as mentioned by the previous poster.

I think using "wipe data" will reset the phone to the original settings back to the "click the android to begin".

this method may work unless you still have something you want to backup from your phone.

if it still does not work,then it is a good time to unleash the power of ODIN!!!! :cool:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] -CALIBAN666-:
you can unlock it with android sdk.phone must be soft or hardrooted.start the phone usb debug must be enebled for this method,i hope you have,open cmd window(windows)navigate to "platform-tools" from sdk folder where is da adb.exe,type step by step the following commands:

adb remount

adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key

after thats the lock is deleted,the joke is the phone ask for the patternlock,but you can type wat u want all is right now.

Method nr2:

The second option presented here is the quickest and cheapest option, since it costs nothing;)

You choose first "emergency". Give her as an emergency number

*2767*3855#

Now you can reset your phone and lock the screen is then gone, too, as your data.

i hope it helps:good:

explanation:method1

If your set at the Androiddevice a screen unlock, it is in the folder / data / system file with the name "gesture.key" created. This contains the data as the correct pattern looks like, in encrypted form. If this is now removed with the rm command so the system knows the unlock does not work properly and take any pattern to be correct.

[HTC One S] lykos:
I was having a similar problem. You can turn on airplane mode, leave it for about thirty seconds, and turn it off. It works better than nothing.

Now can you answer me a question as you do seem to still be running AOKP. Do you have trouble downloading stuff from the Google Playstore? It keeps timing out on me. Won't let me down anything until I force stop, disable, and re enable. The bigger issue is that it followed me back to a sense rom and I'm still having trouble downloading.
[HTC One S] frdd:
Sounds like the RIL startup bug which was fixed a week or so ago by intervigil in CM9 alpha 12. I think the fix is in the kernel and that it'll work on AOKP as well. Try to fastboot flash boot a recent CM9 boot.img, from alpha 12 or newer. Download from ville.giev.de or cm9 thread in development

Congratulations. You have a hard bricked device.

You really should READ the app description before trying anything stupid.

When you performed the recovery installation/flashing process, the app flashed the recovery using the wrong partition - in this case, the phone's internal flash drive!

There are numerous threads over this problem and especially on Desire(?). I guess it was Desire, this happened with almost ~100 devices.

Give it to repair, they will not know how did it break..

Have any other recovery installed except CWM

Get Rom manager from app store and press "Install CWM"

Leave the damn thing to do its ****

Reboot your phone into recovery

TA-DA! You have a bricked device!

If you search on XDA like this: "rom manager bricked my phone" you will find numerous threads from numerous phones, not only Desire.

No. It is a hard brick. You cannot do anything. The motherboard needs to be replaced.

So take it to your service center for warranty and DON'T SAY THAT YOU WANTED TO INSTALL A CUSTOM RECOVERY.
