[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
1. I do believe fluxi does not root your phone like cf-root does (someone correct me if im wrong), so your problem is highly due to not rooting it first. (Fluxi thread does indicate you need CM9 first, so it does mean your phone has to be rooted and with ICS)

2. Yes you can

3. From your information, doesnt seem so.

4. Unless you have a i9100G, Tmobile USA SGS2, AT&T SGS2, or other SGS2 that is not the i9100.

5. Big thing there. Flash rom, then kernel. When you install a rom, it usually comes with its own kernel, so you will end up wiping the original kernel that was installed.

Choosing kernel is your choice. Im still on 3.3.2 siyah kernel. Im getting insane battery life on it and it does everything I need. Some people simply want the latest kernel. I just want a kernel that works well for my own phone. Siyah 3.3.2 does its job, so I will keep it until I end up having a problem due to the kernel.

brilliant, many thanks indeed. haven't been round these forums for a while, good to be back and appreciate the great help when stuck.

just as side note (i'll have a tinker with the governors), no worries if no response, but are you using the default gov with siyah and getting good battery?

cheers again
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garethp:
So my friend (lives in Canada) has an Optimus One one a plan with Koodo. I walked her through installing CyanogenMod 7.1 or whatever the latest was. You know, unlock bootloader, root phone, and get Clockwork Mod to do all the hard work. I... may have skipped over the backing up part. See, I thought you know, her phone got wiped on bootloader anyway, so why backup? Yeah, idiot

So now she can't make calls, send text messages or anything. So I can only assume it's a baseband issue. But, that's where I'm stuck. After reading, some people suggest mik's mod, or something, others give a download to a backup for an Indian ROM. One flow chart suggested installing the baseband from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1149530 which looks useful. Except... which one do I use? And will it work on Canadian company Koodo? Will the Indian ROM work with Canadian Basebands?

Please, help would be so greatly appreciated
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElevateMusic:
Hey man, so basically you were right, it's a baseband issue.

Flash version 20g/i/h whatever, I don't remember what letter but it doesn't matter.

Just follow the guide to the letter and it will work fine ;)

Cheers mate!
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skellums:
You're on the right track, use the file attached to that post titled "P500-v20G-baseband.7z" (use 7-Zip/WinRAR/etc to extract).

Make sure you follow the instructions EXACTLY. Do NOT unplug your phone until it tells you it's completely done, and don't delete the backup it makes! I got lucky the first time I flashed, I thought it had lost communication and had unplugged my phone, but luckily it hadn't started the wipe yet and I was able to recover it.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koragg618:
Don't worry, you're doing the right thing. Remember to follow every single step (double check twice), and DO NOT UNPLUG THE USB, until it tells you to, as they have said above. Also to add, I have a Canadian Koodo O1, and I'm 200% that you won't have any problems whatsoever installing anything on this forum, whether it's an Indian based ROM, Chinese based, etc. Have fun modding!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Forgetfull:
When I'm in wifi the download arrow is constantly blinking. On for a sec then off. I don't have any push accounts. When on just 3g it doesn't do that at all, no data transfered unless I open a app or so something. It's murdering battery constantly connecting. I downloaded network traffic to try and see what is usually the data but it just shows "system". Using "system pannel". The data transfers are only at a few KB/s speeds so it's not large data files.

I've tried force closing all apps and it doesn't do anything. I have downloaded no apps that need constant sync. Gmail sync is stopped.

Do you use YouTube and do you have pre loading option on?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Forgetfull:
Cool I didn't even know that existed. But no, that option is unchecked.

I'll do a factory reset if needed but I don't it to come to that.

The data speeds are miniscule so it's like some odd transfer or authentication.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] sage3:
Now that you mention it, mine seems to be downloading quite a bit on Wi-Fi as well. My battery life is pretty good and it doesn't seem to be hurting anything. So I'm not worried about it. But just wanted to let you know mine does that too when I'm on Wi-Fi.

I have a dead Prime and telephone support gave me a rma # but would not give me any further instructions. I have now emailed and been told they can't do an rma. Filled in the form for rma with no response. Pm'd Gary no response. I have number I just need to know where to send it and what is the recommended packaging.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CharliesTheMan:
I was thinking that if they accept the RMA you'll get a shipping label from them and further information via email, but an expert will chime in.

What was their reason for denying your RMA?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jonbristow:
Its not denied but its been a week without any sort of helpful communication from them. The email they promised from the phone call never arrived. If you email them you get the response - sorry we can't help you must call to get an rma #. I'm going round in circles and have had a dead tablet sat here for the past week.

Pretty sure the tablet is only 1.3ghz. Plus, that model number (PM63100) is right in line with how they label their phones. The OG EVO was the PC36100.

I rooted my TF101 with the peri for windows. No problems there. Been running sluggish lately, and browser's been crashing a lot, so I wanna do the latest firmware update on it. I don't mind losing the root if keeping it isn't possible to upgrade. When the tablet tries to auto install the new firmware the system reboots, and then goes to a screen that reads the following:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Chris6100:
I just tried it on mine and it didn't install, does this require root? I haven't rooted this phone because I bought it as a refurbished phone and it has some minor issues so I'm not sure if I want to void the warranty yet. I'm giving the ics update a few days. It seems better with it so far.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] quordandis:
This is NOT an installable apk. It needs to be copied to /system/app and given the correct permissions (rw-r--r--) and proper ownership (root:root or 0.0)

In order for you to be able to use this, a) I'm pretty sure you need to be in ICS 4.0.4, b) absolutely need to be rooted.

I posted this for the person who lost their original Contacts.apk.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darrien13:
Ok I'm flashing AOKP for the first time I need help, I'm on GB and want to flash AOKP is there anything I should do first such as update modems or oanything? Also how do I safely flash it without bricking my phone? THANKS! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pyrotoast:
Flashing Process

You're on gb Rom with root access right?

You don't need to worry about the modem, it doesn't factor into flashing the AOKP Rom.

To flash this Rom you will need to

1) Download the Rom and gapps onto your phone from Times' AOKP page (internal or SD shouldn't matter)

2) Then odin or mobile odin the StockCWM-EL26.tar.md5 which is found here

http://www.mediafire.com/?u0hs65d1utb3fe4

3) Then you need to reboot into recovery

Edit: Note that this should be CWM 5.0.2.7

4) wipe data/factory reset

5) wipe cache

6) wipe dalvik cache

(some people recommend wiping several times)

7) install the AOKP.zip file

8) Install the gapps

9) Reboot and enjoy.

Note that on this build it seems to take a few minutes to work itself onto your phone, so don't panic initially if the Rom runs a little slow, it will speed up.

Also before you do anything make sure you read the OP several times, and make sure you understand what you're doing. This process should work but as always I'm not responsible if anything happens, you do this at your own risk... but really relax you'll probably be fine, it looks like you've at least flashed the GB Roms before.

EDIT: Also the process is going to be pretty much identical to how QBking77 installs CM in this video, except you will use the AOKP zip and the newer gapps.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
U might want to worry more about going back to gb as that is where most bricks happen. As long as u follow AOKP instructions ur OK...if u wanna go back or switch, just make sure it is done via the el26 kernel w cmw or any other kernel approved for safe flashing on ics. Avoid rogue recovery ones (worked great before but were not aware of emmc bug).
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] darkstar765:
Is one better than the other? Which do you choose and why? Thanks guys
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jgalan14:
Aokp extra customization, I don't have cons for cm9 or aokp
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] crash822:
What that guy said.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Jbluna:
Cm9 is more of a true stock ics experience. Aokp alows for more customization to the Rom
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] itsjusttim:
Exactly! No cons for either. Only difference is Aokp has tons of customizable options
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
Good question...I always wondered what the difference was myself.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] stretchwookie:
agree, and thanked OP for asking.

anything other than customization?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jimbridgman:
Just to let everyone know both AOKP and CM9 are based off of the CM9 source as a starting point. As others have already said AOKP is more customize-able/configurable.

If you want a straight Nexus style experience go for CM9, if you want it to not be so stock Google, then go for AOKP.

You will not be disappointed in either one, they are both excellent!

Just for my personal opinion, I am an CM9 fan, and have been using CM since the version 3 days. I also like AOKP very much, but it is not quite that true stock android experience.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Nelsocracy:
The one thing that keeps me on CM9 instead of AOKP are the notification toggles. Even after changing the settings in AOKP the toggles don't look quite as nice as in CM9. But then once I'm in CM9 I miss some other features. Just not enough to go back.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Serious_Beans:
Yeah everyone pretty much replied to your question.

I prefer cm9 because its a smaller footprint on the system. Its a lighter rom and I can notice a speed difference between aokp and cm9. Aokp has A LOT of customization but seems a tiny bit slower and buggy from MY experience.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ExodusC:
I like both AOKP and CM9- they're great in their own ways.

AOKP has a few features I wish CM9 had (center clock, built-in MIUI-style battery bar, and the brightness slider) but otherwise they're close.

As many said, much of the work on AOKP was already done by CM9 contributors, as (unless I'm mistaken) AOKP basically forked from CM9, and continues to integrate code from it.

So as someone else said, if you want a Nexus-like experience, go with CM9, and if you want even more customization, go with AOKP.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] afbengochea:
Another nice feature on aokp is that you can set your service to switch from 3g to edge when the screen is off, which helps conserve a lot of battery
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] mlin:
From my experience on the Nexus S, I find cm9 to feel a little smoother, faster and more stable while aokp has many many more bells and whistles. That being said, after using aokp for awhile I eventually switched back to cm9 for a more reliable experience.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daytonboi:

Ok I just find out that I can't seems to flash any BML rom except for MTD roms (CM9, cMUIU, AOKP, etc).

I have gone searching for answer and I'm not sure if the problem seems on just my phone. However, at one point, the first time that I have flashed a BML rom ,Valhalla Black, worked fine. Then I did Odin back to stock to KJ6 and from there everything seems to failed to flash. On previous post, I tried to flash Antonx Barebone and failed. I made sure that the mount on the system read "unmount system" then I went ahead and try the others and none seems to able to flash, I tried ICBINB v2, Unnamed and both failed as well.. then I went ahead and tried CM9 and voila it works.

I used T959VUVKJ6_STOCK-UVKJ6-One-Click to get it back to stock, reflashed with bootloader checked, then installed SGS kerner flasher to flash sms-T959V-KJ6-v0.1.1-rc1.zip and everything failed when I try to flash those BML roms.

Any one has an idea?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
The One-Click you used is not rooted. Go back to the One-Click thread and flash AntonX's kernel that way. You need to be rooted for SGS Kernel Flasher. You were not rooted if you did the steps you posted. Flash the kernel then flash whatever ROM in CWM afterwards.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
You could go lumins way with getting root access or just use superoneclick that's what I've done many times before or just run the gremlin remover

Well I skip the part to mention that I did root my phone.. I did manage to install any kernel but once I get into recovery to install the rom, it just fails.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HingWah:
Like I mention on my OP I was able to flash any MTD roms, the BML roms are the one giving me problems... they get stock in the Samsung galaxy s 4g logo
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
Then run the Gremlin Remover and try again. Use a different USB port than the one you used Heimdall with. You will be rooted and have CWM. Then try flashing a BML ROM again
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HingWah:
I did used gremlin remover try to flash icbinb and it fails...

Try to redownload the rom it might be a bad download

I downloaded numerous time since all the time I had to reformat the SD card just in case
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HingWah:
Finally after trying and trying numerous time... I almost gave up on it, I was finally able to flash BML roms. I did FB's [ODIN+CWM] GB Ext4 Starter Pack and from there, I flashed Antonx's Barebone and finally it boot up. I tried the others roms and it work just fine.

Thanks everyone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SickIcarus:
Hello All,

Noticed the following, and was hoping somebody could shed some light on what I'm seeing.

I noticied ~10%/hour battery drain after flashing AOKP M6. Better Battery Stats showed the Exchange Mail Service as being the primary culprit (60.4% on wakelock), and GSam Battery confirmed the exchange service was keeping the phone awake. I have the mail service set to check every 15 minutes. (Tangent - what happened to Sync Scheduling, where you could specify sync frequency based on day and time?)

I used the power saver options in the rom to disable WIFI and 3G radios when the screen turned off, and battery drain plummeted to ~2-3% per hour. Battery stats confirmed the phone was now sleeping normally. However, now mail syncing is using up celular data.

I then modified the power saving settings to keep the wifi on when the screen is off (but still turn off the 3g radio), and to prefer the wifi network for sync data. Power drain increased to ~7% an hour, and battery stats confirmed the phone is no longer sleeping.

To recap:

Nothing tweaked = no sleep, exchange service the culprit

Wifi and 3G radio disabled = sleeps normally

Wifi enabled, 3G disabled = no sleep, exchange service the culprit

Are there any logs or screenshots or anything you guys would like me to provide to back up my observations? Tests occurred over one-hour periods throughout today. No other activity during these tests (phone was kept in my pocket).
