[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zerocoolak:
Cleanrom 4.5 rc1 is amazing! I've had zero issues with functionality. This newest cleanrom is smooth as butter.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jags_the1:
Quite frankly..even the stock ruu with this hardware is quite buttery. Cleanrom just provides a little additional edge. People here overstate just about everything. Don't get me wrong just starting my observation.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thedauntlessone:
CleanRom is meant to be a near stock rom with some nice features like EQS, HQ Camera, etc. so it will perform pretty much like a stock RUU.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] omersak:
c'mon guys, how about a video showing the smoothness/multi-tasking/menu button etc
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] imstill@g:
I disagree completely, unless you are talking about the latest Hk release. The stock ruu's up until now were and are laggy, stuttering and multi task killing pieces of crap...that is far from an overstatement, the devs here have done miracles with this phone. Either way the phone is awesome now, but I remind you, there were threads for weeks about returning this phone because of the launcher redrawing alarms failing, maps quitting, browsers always and I mean always reloading, memory aggression.in my opinion, far from anything, Scott or team nocturnal have released.sorry for the rant, just couldn't disagree more, cheers
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:
At least step up to 4.1. Definitely worth it. Still 4.0.3. Best of the non 4.0.4 ones he made.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:
Try 4.5. Feels like it already has Scott's level 1 multitask built in. Probably because HTC borrowed the changes from the community! Much better.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thedauntlessone:
The multitask improvements are definitely not as simply changing a couple sets of values and outperforms ALL 4.0.3 roms in this regard. They must have changed something in the Sense framework like what Calk did for the improvements.

It's going to be hard going back to 4.0.3 even with source kernel out. The 4.0.4 update just feels too vastly superior.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zerocoolak:
Hmmmm, pretty sure the thread was titled observations on sense 4.0.4 cleanrom 4.5. My observation was just that, I have had zero issues and it has been buttery smooth. I agree with the stock rom being smooth, but I'll take one of Scott's roms over stock any day. :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Alcoholic:
Are you guys able to multi task with chrome? It always refreshes.

Also I have 200mb free and this is fantastic. No more sense crashing.

I'm on rc1
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kapil_peraka:
Thanks for the update. Time to update mine
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
The multitasking doesn't seem to be improved. Apps still reload often.

This thread has definitely convinced me to update. Loving CleanRom 4.0 and from the sounds of it 4.5 rc1 is even better. Thanks guys!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agafed:
Hi there...

I'm having a problem with my S2, so here's my questions in case you can guide and help me.

I'm went on a trip to Germany and I took my S2 with me. I had the phone on Airplane Mode 99% of the time. I turned off Airplane Mode once or twice, and the phone got Reception (signal), but immediately I turned Airplane Mode on again. I didn't need calling or messaging. Then I bought a prepaid chip from T-Mobile, turned off cell phone, installed the chip, turned on phone but phone didn't "recognize the sim".

So, I turned it off again, insert my original sim (the one I use in Costa Rica), turned on the phone, but again, the phone didn't "recognize the sim". I tried those 2 Sims on another phone in the "T-Mobile Store" and both sims worked perfectly. My S2 also showed a "blank IMEI" fater dialing *#06#.

Now I'm in Costa Rica, and the phone still "don't recognize my SIM" and the "blank IMEI" still shows.

Someone knows what can I do? Im completely lost. I found this tool and this guide. Do yo think I can solve this problem with any of those? Or, what do you recommend me?

My phone is completely stock, no root, no custom roms or anything like that. And it's not on guarantee. I'm pretty much a noob, hope you can help me or guide me...

Thanks a lot in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cimmicola:
It seems like your baseband has lost, you can check your baseband in settings-about phone, if the baseband is unknown try to reflash another modem,if you are a newbie, ask for experienced one to help.

The links you provide are not recommended for newbie, and efs backup is no use for this situation that you have no any backups, you can try reflash baseband, that's safer.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agafed:
Thanks for your answer. You are right, my Baseband is Unknown. So, in order to reflash the baseband I need to reflash the Modem? Will you recommend me to reflash the original Modem or another one?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prashanthme:
Try reflashing the original one.. Bcoz that is the one which worked best for u!! Dunno if u changed the orginal baseband?? U hav a custom ROM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcellocord:
It's some random bug it happens with some people, happened with me, wasted 1h trying to restore EFS several times, wipe data, flash modem. The solution: wait. Just wait and it might work again. May be the day, the carrier may be screwed,

Won't work. [usually, with luck]
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agafed:
No, I don't have a Custom Rom... I don't know how or why the Baseband changed to Unknown. Ok,I'll try with the original modem. The only way I know how to flash things it's using CWM... it's that ok or should I do it with a different method?

And another question, someone told me that with a Hard Reset, the problem should be solved... do you agree or disagree?

Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agafed:
Damn... so bad! Yeah, I read some people with similar problems also in the S2. But waiting it's not so good, I mean, my S2 might be screwed forever? What about a Hard Reset as I wrote before?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naturist:
There is no harm in trying hard reset, backup whatever you can and try hard reset. If it fails :

for CWM you need to root your device and install CF root kernel first. You should try flashing baseband through Odin. You can find the baseband/modem files and tutorial here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

Its far easier than going through CWM, install samsung drivers on pc and you are ready to flash. Do read carefully every step. Good luck.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agafed:
Ok, thanks a lot. I appreciate your help. I'll try all the above and let you know how it goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mottyengel:
So, I'm curious if any of you have cashed in on your best buy warranties? I made the desision to go with best buys warranty for me my mom and dad when we signed up and got new phones. Why? Because if you break your phone and "cash in" with art, there's a 200 dollar deductible! That's over hard to swallow... I don't know what my mom would do if she had to shell out 200 bucks....

My mom just dropped her phone into a pot of water, and got a new/refurbished phone. Free.

Anyone else have their own experiences with the note?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
they replaced water damage for free?

There is already a warranty for a year after purchase date given by Samsung that covers any manufacturer's defects, but water damage is usually never covered by any type of warranty....

Are you sure it was a warranty and not insurance?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
I shoulda went to best buy.......sigh
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
Dropped mine and cracked the screen so bad there were pieces all over the floor. Best buy gave me a loaner phone while my replacement was being shipped. Took three days and then had new phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mottyengel:
I guess youre right, its more like insurance. It covers accidental damage and water damage. I went to beat buy just so I could get this insurance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ph0n3D0rk:
I love the best buy black tie protection when I first started modifying phones (Motorola backflip), I bricked is a terrine feeling. So I went to BB and just stomped on my phone right outside the door and just destroyed it. Told them my ex boyfriend did it and they gave me the HTC inspire 4g free. It is well worth the cost especially if you're prone to carelessness or flash addictions.

/end
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pc09:
My husband fell off the jetties while fishing with his Inspire 4G and went back to BB and they sent him a Note for FREE!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
No best buy here but att has replaced mine twice...3rd one on the way now (defects)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Cohdee:
Geek Squad member here. I know it will sound a little biased, but the geek squad protection (formerly black tie protection plan) is an awesome deal. Yeah, its a nice chunk of change up front, but if something goes wrong it will pay for itself. Technically the warranty doesn't cover full submersion in liquid, but in MOST cases, the agents won't enforce this. Honestly, a lot of them won't even check it. Just walk in, say "it got wet" and in about 5 business days you'll have a new (refurbished) phone. In almost all cases, these phones look just about brand new. I would be wary of just smashing your phone, because if you get the wrong agent, they will call it abuse and deny your claim. If anyone has any questions, I would be more than happy to try and help with answers!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mottyengel:
The Only Issues with The best buy protection are; It takes a while to get a new phone as apposed to The carriers who will have one to you by the next day. Sometimes they'll give you a loaner phone, but its not always a smartphone. They gave my mother an old htc android phone, which was fine, but then is stopped working and they had nothing else for her. So I went on craigslist and got a galaxy s because it'll be a good investment as me my mom and dad and brother all have att.

The other thing is lost or stolen. The carrier insurance covers that where best buy doesn't, But it doesn't mater because i think more people break their SMARTPHONE than lose them anyway, and its an amazing feeling right after you destroy your phone and you realize that you wont have to pay 200 bucks to get a new one!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] higoschumbos:
Hello there, I was wondering if anyone could help with an odd issue my phone has developed?

I have a German Note, sim-free, using it in the UK, not flashed, just running stock 4.0.4.

I updated OTA the other day to 4.0.4, and all was going well until I noticed this odd bug:

Previously, when the volume was reduced all the way down on the ringer it would put the phone into vibrate mode (when it would vibrate for notifications) and one more press of the volume rocker would put it into silent (no sound OR vibration).

Now, when the phone is in silent mode (so it shouldn't ring or vibrate) it vibrates for email notifications (via the native app) and other notifications e.g. words with friends, but it doesn't vibrate for SMS and phonecalls. I've tried changing the individual email settings for vibrate (but it doesn't help, plus I shouldn't really have to!)

Anyone having the same problem or get any ideas? Any help is appreciated!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] higoschumbos:
Anyone have any ideas?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJSlim79:
Isn't there a setting for this?

Vibrate "Always" "Only in Silent" "Never" or something like this.. Possible it was configured differently before you upgraded...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] higoschumbos:
Nope, tried changing it to every setting and it still vibrates when the phone is in silent (not just vibrate only mode).

What makes me think it's a bug is that words with friends also makes the phone vibrate in silent mode.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahilarora2003:
Open Dialer

Open settings by pressing the left menu button and in vibrate check never instead of only in silent or always..

:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] higoschumbos:
but then it doesn't vibrate at all for any email whether the phone is on silent or loud!!!

Hi Guys,

So during an attempt to flash CM9, I flashed a kernel with CWM recovery onto an existing 4.0.4 rom with an unlocked bootloader, but no root. My phone was then stuck at CWM, and wouldn't go into the OS. So i went to download a new rom to re-flash it, and went to bed.

Overnight, I left my phone on the charger, but I don't believe it was actually charging, there was no indicator light, and when I woke up, it appears my phone is battery dead, as such it won't boot up, it won't charge, so I can't boot into flash mode to flash a new rom.

I have no idea what to do, is it possible to force this battery to charge via ADB or something? Do I have any options? I'd really appreciate any advice.

forget it...

I was able to root my 'old' galaxy s2 from Sprint using my mac but not before spending about 7 hours or so trying to figure it out. It was a pain in the ass. I can root 2.3.5 in about five minutes now.

I gave up using Mac for all this rooting and modification crap and thought about a couple different solutions to this problem.

You can simply buy a cheap windows laptop, which I almost did. Or you can run Bootcamp, partition your hard drive on the Mac and then install a copy of Windows 7 or whatever version you choose on your Mac. This is very easy to do even for a beginner.

Last week I finally decided to just put Windows on my Mac and rooted my skyrocket 4.0.4 stock ICS in about half an hour after several hours of reading first. In reality it only takes about 5-10 minutes once you have done it a few times.

I bought a legitimate copy of Windows 7 premium FULL edition so that was about $165. I also ended up replacing the pretty full 250 gb hard drive with a Seagate Momentus XT 750 GB hard drive for about another $165. I partitioned about 130gb for Windows.

I love my Mac but the majority of all the programs for the phones are written on Windows platforms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
That's what I am trying to tell him.... :D

It can be done, but its easier to just run windows on the Mac and do it that way....

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
It's better if you use a virtual machine like parallels or VMware Fusion, that way there's no need to restart your mac or waste space on a predefined windows partition.

Also you could always just use a friend's PC for the rooting process, Later on unless you want to go full stock or you softbrick your device there's not a real need for a computer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Theoutbackdream:
When I used programs like that, It really made one OS. Run weird. Mac would crash or windows would do something funky. If your rooting I reccimend staying away from thus and just do boot camp.

So I've been looking around and from what I can tell, the jelly bean situation for the rezound is looking pretty bleak considering the fact that it hasn't even received ics yet. That doesn't phase me though because I figured I could just install a custom rom and get it now; however, it seems thats not the case because for some reason no one seems confident that a custom jelly bean rom for the rezound is possible. Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't there already custom jb roms for other phones? So I was just wondering if anyone could explain to me why a custom jb rom for the rezound is not possible? And if it is why hasn't anyone made one?
