[XPERIA X10 General] _LFX_:
Hi guys,

I am not a privileged one yet so just waiting here and there. hope to post build to 10 posts if it is necessary to get a little guidance or help. Don't think I've ever asked on here before. I have flashed my SE X10i before and found it straightforward when following a walkthrough guide :D.

So last night my phone crashed like it sometimes does when overloaded with background apps, yeah even ones that are disabled to startup there are self restarters and ones that often restart when WiFi connects. if this happens while having numerous windows open in a web browser and your WiFi drops out and then reconnects it can slow down phone very much. Weird how Android does not check for RAM use before doing allow apps to do that. I was running 2.3.(2 I think). Well, my phone is now bricked. After it crashed it bricked itself like it has for many others with an X10i. I am looking to buy a new sim free phone in a few months but need this back working in the meantime. Not too big a fan of HTC but like the look of the One X but may go with a phablet if Samsung make one better than the Galaxy Note (as much as I like it already).

I checked several threads for ROMS but they all seem to be deadlinks - removed from web file hosts.Do you have one (working URL) for me to try, preferably an upgrade one to try out? Higher version than 2.3 and with a guide if possible.... Thanks! I do not have time to read much on here right now so please excuse me if I overlooked one.

I am not allowed to post here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1236189&page=38

So would doing this be suitable for my bricked X10i without doing a backup since it is messed up anyway

ya its fine as long as u know the exact procedure of what needs to be done !! go ahead ..as u have already messed so just give a try then !!

why u not allowed to post just check the discussion thread for the rom page which u have added and u can post there !!
[XPERIA X10 General] luserx8:
Try DonetHD Jelly Bean. My x10 works great on this ROM. Battery life and speed is fairly decent as well.
[XPERIA X10 General] anguslaw:
If you need a fast ROM, cm7.2 roms are your best choice, it is fast in all functions that you need to use daily, especially the speed to turn on the camera. The speed to turn on camera is fastest in cm7.2roms.

Others cannot compare to them. Feralabs' are fast, thgo2 is fast, however, turning on camera need at least 3secounds [using camera ICS -you could download from play], however in mokee os, it takes only one to two seconds to turn on it.

FeraLab_ICS! It's very beautiful, smooth, with many new features, stable, ok for daily use and has great battery life. Very awesom rom!!! Camera now working (not 100% full), just download the app Camera ICS from Google Play store and download Zdzihu's camera fix for ics. Here is a awesome modification by me:

List of apps i removed without a problem:

From system/app:

CosmicFlow ((live)wallpaper)

DSPManager

Email (i use gmail)

FileExplorer (i use X-Plore)

GoogleTTS

HTMLViewer

LiveWallpapers

LiveWallpapersPicker

NoiseField ((live)wallpaper)

SoundRecorder

VideoEditor

From data/app:

com.facebook.katana-1 (i don't use it)

Flipboard

jetAudio__1.0.2 (i use sony's Walkman app for ICS)

Nova Launcher_1.2

signedMemo

One more important thing, it's 100% bug free!!! :victory::victory::victory:

Happy flashing. ;)

I just used my firmware 4.1.B.0.431 of arc, yesterday I installed the application from the Xperia S ICS, this space memory is 11 MB, I would like to consult with you can I move the application from the vendor to the system folder ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtacy!:
Use Titanium Backup. Else you can do it manually as long as you have root access.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danisariandi:
How ?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ages_devil:
hi,

i've the note on gb 2.3.6 rooted using dr.ketan's method

now i want to update to ics and because all of the talk about bricking the note i'm really hesitant and don't know what to do exactly

i have the update available OTA ... i've downloaded the firmware for egypt

GT-N7000_EGY_N7000JPLPD_Android_4_0_3 (my gb is the uae firmware but i need to install egypt's firmware) so what should i do to avoid this bricking problem?

update OTA and live with UAE firmware ? or use mobile odin to update to EGY ICS ? or use PC Odin ?

and after updating how can i root it ? and change the kernel to a safe one ?

i tried reading many threads but there are so many that i got confused.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
For me i use mobileodin because its very easy to install a rom and put a root at the same time. Just look in youtube how use it.:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
clean install ICS to get best performance. Here writing steps

-Backup your user app with Titanium

-Wipe cache and data

-Install & Root ICS, doesn't metter UAE/Egypt choose whatever you wish to have. (follow this)

-Flash custom kernel if you wish to have safer kernel

-Restore only user appl with titnium but no system junk or no any system appl of previous ROM missing in this ROM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxynotes:
Thanks but I don't get the " check for CSC (*#272*IMEI#) if not INU, set it." part.

Could you explain a little bit?

Plus I'm thinking of doing all three wipes in Recovery mode before installing ICS.I'm on stock GB rooted.Then flashing ICS so is that a good way?Also if I do all the wipes how can I switch to Downloading mode?Because if I restart I don't think anything will load since everything is deleted right??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
You need not to do csc test.

Yes before flashing wipe cache n data.

You will still able to get into download mode.

PS : you need to read more. you shud have basic knowledge to avoid issue.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ages_devil:
in my case i'll change the csc which will factory reset the phone if i remember correctly

so, should i also wipe data and cache ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
For that just wipe cache, but you shud b on gb rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ages_devil:
yes of course, i'll never touch the recovery in ICS no wipe or anything else from ICS
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ages_devil:
sorry i got another question, if mobile odin can be used and it keeps the root, i already have mobile odin .. so does the steps differ? i'll put the fw file on the phone and choose it from mobile odin and flash while keeping the root, am i right?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Yes you can but i do recommend PC Odin for clean installation and rooting is very easy on ICS. hardly it takes <10 min.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ages_devil:
i forgot to wipe cache (dalvik cache) and i installed the ics ... what should i do now ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
If your running on ics do not factory reset or data wipe very important. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ages_devil:
i will not, i updated and installed speedmod kernel and everything is fine until now

[HTC Incredible S] celaw:
Hi, I had purchased a new sd card, can I just transfer my data from old sd card to new sd card and insert into my phone?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Yes you can, I did that

But if you don't transfer some things over, you may very force closes in some apps that need days from the sd card
[HTC Incredible S] celaw:
I see.. meant I won't face any app problem when change the sd card if I transfer all the things over right?

1 more question is I should format my sd card as fat32 or ntfs? Thanks..
[HTC Incredible S] zukri90:
FAT32 is the common format.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
No problems if you are transferring everything over

If you leave out some things you think are useless, like I did, you may have problems. I just transferred what I thought was needed and I had no problems

I do Fat32
[HTC Incredible S] Taysider:
I use Airdroid

Most SDcards are already formatted to FAT 32. I use Airdroid https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid

Simply copy ALL from your SDcard to computer, put new card in phone then copy back from PC to phone:)
[HTC Incredible S] celaw:
Hi, I had copy all items in my old sd to new sd, but when I want to back up current Rom using clockworkmod, it shown cannot unmount cache.. any idea yea.. =.=

There's two separate hidden menus

*#*#SERVICE#*#* (or) *#*#7378423#*#*

*#*#INFO#*#* (or) *#*#4636#*#*

If you want to change the SMS Service Centre number, you'll need to do it through the INFO menu.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mixMZ:
So noone knows how to create widget / shortcut for those "hidden menus"

???

It would be nice to have that instead of "dialing the combination"

You can try an USSD checker app but not sure if it will work because it normally starts with an asterisk (*) and ends with a hash (#).

[HTC One X] Ryan J Williams:
Hi guys,

I installed my first ROM last week, which went pretty smoothly. However I'm now keen to try out a different one.

Main thing I'm wondering: what is lost when doing this? Can I assume that my OS will completely revert to its original settings, and only data on my storage will persist? So I'll have to re-install and re-configure any apps I use, right?

Does this also apply when moving between versions of ROMs (alpha 4, 5, 6, etc)? I would assume so as technically it is a whole new ROM.
[HTC One X] skywalker1162:
When u flash a new rom ... even if u reflash the one currently on ur phone all ur apps and settings will go back to default . Suggest u backup apps and data on titanium and then restore them aftter flashing a new rom .

and just to add to that always make a backup of your rom as well just incase

Try cleaning the lens. Jk, my camera takes great photos.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] eyecon82:
you have to press somewhere on the screen to have it focus first..then take the pic

i know its a pain, but i noticed the same thing
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] cgardnervt:
Mine seems to be ok! But the thing is I don't have high standards for my phone camera. As I don't use it much sadly! I hope you get an easy fix for it!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
I am having the same issue. I can very rarely get barcode scanning apps to work.

Here is a picture from my gs3, I reset the settings on the default camera app.

And here is from my GS2, default camera app, default settings.

The GS3 is much more blurry.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] brfield:
Maybe you have a bad sensor? Or your lens could be dirty. Fog underneath it? Go to where you bought it and complain to get a new one and see what they do. Mine is perfect, for a phone anyway.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
Just for kicks is a picture from instagram
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] eyecon82:
Does anyone have Sprint and have GD camera?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] androholic:
The gs3 is a bit more advanced camera , and along with that the user must be a bit more advanced, and I'm also having to hear this myself. With the pic you took for example, you should very used hdr mode and keep a very steady hand. What hdr is for is when you have a mixed lighting situation like the one in your pic(bright & dark, or a sunny day but in the shade) it will actually take two pics & blend them to get it right. Try googling galaxy s3 camera tips & you will have to read & study it a bit, but you will have much more user control. Once you've figured it out you will have to make adjustments for each pic according to the environment, but the pics will be of pretty high quality. I hope I've helped you some.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] stevesprivateaccount:
I have a Sprint 32gb S3 and my camera works great. One of the best smartphone cameras I've used so far. I do notice that on all my smart phones that I'll regularly have a finger print on my camera lens, so I always be default wipe off the lens before i use the camera. (i do really miss my dedicated camera button though)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
Thanks I'll have a look around.

I attached 3 images from a hike we did on Sunday. 1 HDR and 2 Single shot pictures.

I'll play around with the setting and see if I can get it dialed in. The main issue I have found is in low light, or in mixed light like you said, but even outdoors, some pictures are awesome, some are just like pictures from my first camera phone.

Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] androholic:
Yes, the settings are a bit tricky but I'm learning how to use them slowly but surely. But wow, I wish I was on that hike, that is a beautiful scenery!

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 PM ----------

I've also discovered that for myself, when taking a picture of an object or person less than maybe 3 feet away(give or take) I use macro mode & manually focus to get a nice shot with pretty distinctive details. I especially find them nice when I edit them with the Samsung photo editor app & turn them into Grey scale.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
yeah I ended up cleaning the lens real good, played with some settings. It's much better...I think LOL, thanks for your help.

yeah it was an awesome hike. Its called donut falls in utah. Im sure there are videos and pictures if you look around.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] blackhemi4x4:
I know a lot of folks with the international phones had some of the same issues with the camera. Not sure if its related or not.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
Yeah I've been lurking there. I can't get my camera to take decent pictures. Especially like has been mentioned, in low light. The gs2 camera is insanely better. Compared to the gs2 and the iphone4s my gs3 is like my first camera phone. LOL I hope it's just a software thing...and not a hardware.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] TheJanitor07:
I notice some noise every now and then, usually only in low light settings. For the most part my S3 takes amazing pictures. This is easily the best camera I have ever seen on a smartphone. Night and day difference compared to my S2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
Yeah I think there is for sure something wrong with the camera.

The attached pics should be much better than that.......
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] kthung:
My pictures do not look like that. It looks like there is more noise in the S2 shot but less blur so perhaps the S3 defaults to a lower iso setting and slower shutter speed hence more blur. Check your iso settings. There's also an antishake option, Im not 100% sure but I'm pretty sure it bumps up the iso to 1600 (normal max is iso 800) and limits the shutter speed to no slower than 1/30 (with anti-shake off it's 1/15)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] das7982:
Low light is fuzzy
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
from what I have noticed, pictures up close seem fine.....anything further than like 3 feet or so......total blur. It's almost like the camera is stuck in the "up close" mode, or like it won't re-focus.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] bonebeatz1234:
This phone takes amazing pictures.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] bonebeatz1234:
lowlight looks good and people pictures i seen look bad cause there out of focus or i notice it look cloudy, It happen twice with me i just exit camera app and restart it and it's clear.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
I have cleaned and re-cleaned my lens. It's not the lens.....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
tried that, still cant get it to focus.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] d_bot:
Something real sad. The first two pics are from the back camera, one with the HDR setting. The third one is from my front facing camera.......That is not normal, something is definitely wrong with the rear camera/FW I have sensor_fw = ZDFE02. as mentioned in the international gs3 thread about the issues.

Would some of you guys that are able to take good pictures, hook your phone up usb,

launch the camera app,

then run "adb shell dmesg | grep "sensor_fw"

see what you get.

Edit: i don't know why this is upside down, on my computer it is right side up LOL
[Galaxy S III General] GiveMe2Beers:
Hi everyone. After GS1, GS2 I've bought GS3.

Really disappointed for the viewing angles (on whites/grays), the worst I've aver found in amoled/ips lcd recently.

As I tilt the screen 15-20 degrees (normal use movement exspecially when you write/use it with one hand) during mail, web, whatsapp all the whites begin to show a sort of polarized/light blue reflection that seems to be caused by Gorilla Glass/amoled interaction. Very very annoying and tiring for my eyes, and of course not beautiful to see on a 600€ 4,8" display.

On Italian forums I have to say 90% of users experienced this, but maybe in my GS3 this effect is more prominent, difficult to say, I cannot compare by now.

I'd like to have feedbacks from you, don't know if return it and buy a new one.

Cheers. :cowboy:
[Galaxy S III General] instepos:
Im swapping mine in store for the same reason.
[Galaxy S III General] GiveMe2Beers:
Hi.

Is the new one replaced better?
[Galaxy S III General] kantk20111:
I never understood why viewing angles were a problem. You're using your phone wrong if you need to view it at a 20 degree plus angle.
[Galaxy S III General] GiveMe2Beers:
Never had viewing angle issues with past phones. Never.

With this GS3 simply cannot move it, or I have a blu reflection.

Just want to know if it's just mine.
[Galaxy S III General] emahmood87:
It's the same with all amoleds ...but I don't think it affects the usage that much and it's only noticeable on plain white backgrounds ...
[Galaxy S III General] instepos:
Haven't been to swap it yet. Im going tomorrow i'll let you know. Been having call issues were it sounds like I've gone under water about 1 min into some calls.

My mate works in a phone shop and said he swapped 3 sgs 3 for call issues today alone

I have exactly the same thing on the lower part of the screen. The grey's temperature is "colder" than the rest of the screen. If you test the screen with "*#0*#" with the three diff colours is fine, the "issue" is only with white and grey background.
[Galaxy S III General] emahmood87:
I see but the thing is i had sgs1, two sgs 2 ( white and black), two galaxy nexus (white and black), all of them had a blue tint when viewed at an angle .... Though I also know many have said that they don't have tint but I never got any galaxy without tint just my luck I suppose... Htc one x slcd2 doesnt have that issue but battery life is too poor on it that's why got sgs3...sgs3 is superb in every way..
[Galaxy S III General] fasty:
This sound quality issue sounds very much like a problem described in other threads.

Perhaps you have already seen this, but if not, be aware that the problem has been solved by the majority of people simply by switching OFF the "noise reduction" feature under "Call Settings" (it's set ON be default)
[Galaxy S III General] instepos:
Thanks for the reply but I had seen the other threads and switched off noise cancellation but still suffered from the "underwater" problem

Sorry for the delay

Sorry for the delay in replying to this thread. I have just got back from the Carphone Warehouse where I checked four different Pebble Blue S3's...guess what.....They all had a Purple tint to them.

When They where first booted up they looked "OK" but when I turned the brightness all the way up and open a white webpage like google you could see a purple hue/tint to the screen but it looked fine when you look at it straight on,

I only have another 4 day before I can exchange mine for a new phone, seriously considering getting a HOX instead at this point. Or failing that sitting in a Samsung Service centre until I find one that doesn't have this awful tint.

I'll keep posting on this thread if I manage to find ones without the tint but I've got a feeling that the CPW UK has got a bad batch in at the moment.
[Galaxy S III General] dinan:
My screen seems okay in regards to tint overall but the top 20% of the screen or so is bluer othan the rest and it gets gradually worse as you get to the top edge. At first it didn't bother me so much but now it's starting to get annoying =(
