Ya I just flashed it on my old nexus s, its better than ICS on it but due to the hardware it just isn't buttery like on my gnex. That's to be expected though with a 1ghz hummingbird and lower bus speeds.

[Galaxy S III General] cmd512:
I can confidently tell you that was not JB.
[Galaxy S III General] Oomahey:
LOL No. That is a regular OTA update. JB is not yet released. If you read the article, you'll see that the the supposed release time is Aug/Sept. Might be later.

As for the OTA update, try connecting to KIES and update.

[General Topics] weltysparrow:
Hi guys, this is my first post and is a warning about something that happened to my phone today.

I have a UK Galaxy Note which is rooted but running stock ICS from Samsung.

I Installed the Steam app and all of a sudden my CPU was pegged to 1400Mhz and the GPSD process was using using all my battery with GPS turned off. Even when plugged into the mains the battery was slowly draining and would have run out within a few hours.

I traced it back to the Steam app, uninstalled and things are back to normal (as normal as they can be with android, I still have the issue where my phone won't deep sleep when unplugged every few days and gets stuck at 200Mhz til I reboot and remove the battery for 30 seconds!)

I read the forums here and they helped point me in the right direction so I thought I'd post in case anyone else has this problem.

If this is in the wrong section please move it to where it needs to go.

Thanks.

I'm currently running WanamLite XBLFB Stock Rom. I've been looking for details on how to change the dialer buttons to transparent as I've managed to change the background to a custom image. I've found instructions for AOSP Roms but most of them seem to involve using DialerTabActivity.apk which I've been unable to find on my phone. I suppose it's different on an ICS Stock ROM.I'd be grateful if anybody can direct me to the file that's responsible for this and tell me what to edit. If there's already a tutorial that's applicable for our phone, please post the link

Hello, OTA just downloaded new update on my phone, but I am not sure if I can safely apply it... I run through whole therad and I can see, somebody was succesfull with OTA update somebody not... I have stock rom IMM76D.I9300XXALF2 with custom franco.Kernel r10 and rooted with CF-Root 6.4 + SuperSU + CWM5.5 + CWMManager. So question is, if I can use OTA update, or should I firstly remove custom kernel back to stock kernel and use OTA even if rooted with CF-R 6.4 or use OTA even with custom kernel and CF-R 6.4 or dont use OTA at all :-) Thanx very much for help :-)

If you do not have stock recovery the update will fail.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VictorC666:
If I understand it right - because I used CF-Root 6.4 with CWM so now I have CWM Recovery not the stock one, so I downloaded my current whole stock ROM, unpacked it and there is recovery.img <- and this is stock recovery? So now should I flash it back to phone to get stock recovery back?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RoyaL:
Hello,

I have the Stock ICS 4.0.4 LRG for Germany on my Portuguese TMN's Note.

Since I have upgraded from LPY to LRG, everytime I enter in the Stock Recovery (VolUP+Home+Power) I have this message:

I don't have any idea why this is happening. And... KOR CSC?! I don't have nothing related with Korea.

Anyway, after 1 second of appearing this image, the menu appears and seems to be working fine (I can go to the temporary CWM, etc).

How can I correct this?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
Multi CSC means the firmware contains multiple csc.

Do not change CSC on stock kernnel. This might trigger brick bug.

Use CSC Select to change CSC.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RoyaL:
Thanks. I don't want to factory reset now. Also through that app you have to factory reset so you are also in risk of the brick bug, right?

Is this an issue having this error on the recovery?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
Multi-CSC ?? - No it is not an error.

Changing CSC factory resets the phone so be careful with stock kernels on ICS.

Anyway, you can use safe kernels like SpeedMod or NoteCore.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Zhoreb:
Everytime I loaded the default recovery, i got that CSC message. After, I got the null problems on samsung keyboard. Very annoying.

Reflashed LRG and switched to CF-kernel 5.6 to get rid of the problem. (CWM)

NO you have to flash the boot.img seperately, using the boot.img that is inside of the roms zip file you are flashing.

You must flash the boot.img in fastboot and the rom in recovery.
[HTC One X] eyosen:
Until we have S-OFF, kernel boot images must be flashed manually.

If its the same rom and same version, restoring an earlier backup should work without reflashing the boot image

i hv bnattery problem for 3-4 month

still cannot solve the battery problem

i think i have done some wrong steps in the battery calibration

when my battery is fully charged in a battery changer(charger for battery only)

when i put the battery into the phone, it's shows that there is about 30% of battery

when i further use the battery, the battery level rise (without charging!) to 100 then drop to 0 and turn off

the time that the phone can use from 100% to 0% is quite short

when every time after charging, the battery level is 100%

it won't charge to the "real" full battery level, ie ~30% (SORRY FOR MY POOR ENGLISH)

how should i calibrate?

i used the battery calibration app, but no use.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcuwolf:
Charge to 100 then use battery calibrator from market very simple
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolsandie:
If your recovery is ClockWorkMod, then there is an option to "Clear Battery Stats". Just try to see whether it helps.

~Cheers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Felnarion:
It's a few days late, but battery calibration is unnecessary on modern batteries (Lithium). All the apps do is delete a small file that records power usage, they do not affect battery life in any way. This file is cleared automatically (by the system) when the phone is fully charged.

Further, full charge/discharge cycles will actually have a net harmful effect on your battery life. A lithium ion battery has a limited number of charge/discharge cycles it can sustain before becoming more effective at being a paperweight than powering anything. The full cycles you are doing simply eat into the battery's overall life expectancy.

For instance, it is better to charge from 50% to 100% multiple times than it is to go from 0 to 100 once.

Personally, I would just replace the battery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiffer1991:
I would suggest u to calibrate the battery in the clockworkmod recovery too

if this wont has any effect take into consideration that your battery might be damaged

i faced this problem one year ago with a galaxy spica the battery was shown as full and after a restart it was almost empty and calibrating the battery did not had any effect

so have a try and report afterwards

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
I have managed to flash ICS from XWLA4 without wipe.

But it was a little bit tricky.

Had to move all apps from external sd card to internal, as the first ICS version had problems to recognize the external sd card.

Had to remove some apps and re-install them via Google Play store, as they had FCs and TitaniumBackup could not solve it.

I had to re-organize all my aps in app menu and on my homescreens.

I had to wipe cache and Dalvik cache, fix permissions and reboot several times.

But - in the end - I got everything work fine.

The easier way would be to do a factory reset/wipe data.

I've rooted my XWLPM ROM with CF-Root v5.6 for XXLQ5.

The XWLPM and XXLQ5 kernels seem to be very similar.

And the CF-Root v5.6 is "safe".

But you can flash nearly every other custom kernel for Sammy's ICS (at least the latest versions) to root this ROM.

As I don't have restored my nandorid backup of XWLA4 yet, I don't know if this will work ... but I hope so.

Although I am very satified with the latest ICS versions and don't want to go back ATM.

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

XWLPM is not leaked ... it's officially released stock ROM ... in Russia. (XXLQ5 is leaked)

But it contains the "main" European languages.

Yes, it is dangerous to do wipes with injected CWM or CWM of "unsafe" kernels on this ROMs (i.e. XXLQ5 and XWLPM).

But if you use a permanent CWM of a "safe" kernel (sch as CF-Root v5.6, latest Siyah, latest NEAK, latest DK, latest Dorimanx, latest SpeedMod, latest Shun, etc.), there should be no higher risk for bricking than on other ROMs.

[Galaxy S II General] YTY6:
Hi everyone,

I've been a proud GT-I9100 user now for almost a year, without any bigger problems. However, since two weeks, my sgs2 is rebooting itself when disconnected from the USB cable.

Every time I disconnect my device from the charger, it reboots 5-10 seconds after disconnection. As you are aware, the reboot sequence is normally:

- SGS2 text screen

- splash screen

- bootanimation

- lockscreen

- asks PIN code

- ready to use.

In this case, however, it completely skips the SGS2 screen, splash screen and the PIN code. In short, the bootanimation suddenly shows up and then you are again ready to go just in a few seconds without putting in your PIN. As I said, it's been like this for two weeks, but I was too lazy to do anything about it until I accidentally removed the plug while browsing the web and lost some important information in the process. I already tried a different charger and cleaned the USB port with pressurised air without any effect (not that I expected it to have).

I've heard of a "soft reboot". Could my issue be that and how could I fix it?

Rom: Hydra h2o v. 1.4.1.

Kernel: Hydra r26

Recovery (came with the rom): CWM Touch 5.5.0.4.

All found at: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1403044

Any help would be appreciated!

Oh, and one more question. If I wanted to flash the official firmware back with ODIN, would it overwrite my kernel? If so, would a Nandroid restore also restore my kernel back? (Stock --> CF-Root via ODIN --> NANDroid restore --> back to hydra kernel?)

Thanks in advance! :fingers-crossed:

edit: Here is a video where I show both the "soft reboot" and a normal one to compare. Please don't mind the quality which is a bit shabby.

[Galaxy S II General] jaydvn:
Try to wipe data/factory reset in cwm recovery mode(backup your current rom first)

Then reboot device... if the problem still appear, flash another stock rom via ODIN PC...
[Galaxy S II General] YTY6:
If the problem is the software, won't backing up in CWM and restoring it after a wipe just make the phone exactly as it was before wiping? So the problem won't go anywhere. In fact, as I think of it, if the problem is software based, would anything, including ODIN stock flash, help at all if I later restored the NANDroid backup? Would it just bring the problem back?

What kind of reboot this even is? I've actually never seen a thread about a reboot which skips the SGS2 screen, splash screen and PIN code...
[Galaxy S II General] T__:
Flash back to stock -> Root -> Find out which Kernel you want that is used in the custom ROM and flash it separately through either odin if tar file, or through cwm if zip file.
[Galaxy S II General] YTY6:
Thanks for the reply.

However, I already know that this way I can get rid of any software bug causing reboot, including this (i hope so, else it's gonna be a warranty case). The question i'm pondering, is still, will the problem will come back when restoring a nandroid backup of the phone as it is now.
