[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktz84:
OK. When I did the clockwork mod I did chose the option to backup before I flashed the new rom so it should be there however I didn't know how to get back into Clockwork Mod recovery in order to restore it. My problem is that when I tried to install ILWT rom I got the green htc splash screen that it was just frozen on and the only way to get rid of it was to pull the battery. When I hold volume down + power I end up at hboot which only allows me to chose the first option which basically finds PC10 something image which is my htc rom so I just installed it because as I say I didn't know how to do anything else.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
When you went back to SHIP/S-ON you most likely also put the original stock recovery on there as well, you will not be able to access that back up until you unlock and re-root your phone (i.e.: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=HTC_Vision ) and then boot back into recovery (button method is Power + Volume down, then volume button to select Recovery and power button to select it) to perform a restore (though I would back up your stock rom once back in recovery).

The backups are generally stored on the SD Card in the /clockworkmod/backup/ folder , typically as a dated folder under.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktz84:
Ah that's back to the original problem. When I'm boot the volume up / down doesn't work therefore I can't select recovery so it autoselects the first option which loads the PC10somthing.img (which is the htc 2.2 rom which is unrooted and puts s-on) that's on the root of my sd card however the volume up and down is working the fastboot screen when I used the trackpad + power and that's been my problem. I guess if I named a stock rom PC10xsomething then it would autoselect that so I don't end up in constantly cycle of rooting and unrooting. Will see this evening.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
There should be no PC10IMG.zip on the SDCard if you're already done flashing what needed flashing. Otherwise you'll keep getting stuck there.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktz84:
OK - been a bit busy and had to abandon my attempts until today. Probably best thing as I discovered that I could get into clockwork mod recovery from a hung htc green logo screen by pulling the battery and then putting it in again and just hitting the power button without using the volume down button.

From there I had a backup of my rom from before which I used and a ran no problem so just spent time doing a titanium restore. So back up and running again.

I might give ICS a go if the driver issue with the camera ever gets resolved as I still use my camera, usually for document scans, quite regularly.

Thanks for taking the time in trying to get me sorted.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whoareyou:
Did you make sure to remove PC10IMG.zip from ur sdcard???
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktz84:
I didn't but have now :laugh:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rytymu:
On the stock Touchwiz 5 or Nature UX, whatever, it's awesome how the storage is partitioned on the internal SD card where the apps AND app data/user storage are there in ONE partition. Maybe I couldn't figure it out, but on CM9 (on the AT&T SII) there was a secure app storage partition and a SEPARATE user accessible partition on the internal SD like most Android phones... Is this the case on CM10, or will it allow for one large partition like the stock S3? Is it set that way by default, or can it by modified?
[HTC Sensation] OKors:
For a long time I was running MIUI 2.2.24 and recently installed MIUI v4 with 3.33 Firmware, and honestly I dont' care for it. The rom is fine but battery life is horrible. MIUI 2.2.24 would go 2 days on a battery; v4 goes 8-10 hrs.

I'd like to reflash 2.2.24 from a Nandroid backup but I cant seem to locate the firmware that was installed. The 2.2.24 ROM thread says you must have BELOW 3.12 to install.

The firmwares I have are; 3.12 an ABOVE, and 1.17, which is reeeellly old.

Can someone point me to the last known GB firmware?
[HTC Sensation] chukis13:
I take that back... I think 1.17 is your only option. Btw, can you upload miui 2.2.24 somewhere? I gots to check out this epic battery life.
[HTC Sensation] OKors:
I have 1.17.

My question is; is this the latest firmware that is GB compatible? I wanna say before I flashed MIUI v4 I had something below 3.12 (other than 1.17)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

1.17 will work to install GB.

:)
[HTC Sensation] chukis13:
That's it bro... that's the highest gb compatible firmware.
[HTC Sensation] OKors:
Got it,

flashed 1.17 then restored from backup. All is good again. 5.5 hrs @ 96% battery. That's more like it!

Are you really interested in 2.2.24? If so I can upload it to mediafire tonight when i get home.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] showbo:
Can't get it to load any ROMs. Even google search turned up nothing. Tried a few other GBA Emulators with no luck.

The only game that will kinda work is Super Mario 3. It loads up the start of the game, and when you click to play it just crashes. Anyone got an emulator that actually works?

Yes I did download and have the bios.bin loaded properly.... Thanks in advance!.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] i3lackDawn:
Make sure you are not using GameBoid 3.0.0. I have found probems with that version similar to yours. Try another version of GameBoid, or like Caboose said, try a different emulator if all else fails.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] android100:
I need a new phone and I would like it to be Nexus. Should I go ahead and buy the Galaxy Nexus on Google Play or should I wait for the next Nexus? Oh, and price is also a priority, does anyone think the next nexus will be more expensive?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
are new phones always more expensive than old ones?

you bet the next nexus will more expensive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phatmanxxl:
They are 1¢ on Amazon now, a good deal if you don't wanna cough up the cash for an expensive phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Roxy:
Of course it'd be more expensive than Galaxy Nexus's current price.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I can absolutely guarantee that the next Nexus will launch at more than $350. Probably more like $500+.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RaymieHumbert:
I would have to say yes.

Given that the Nexus S received Jelly Bean, the Galaxy Nexus is a great phone to get for the long run. It'll probably get Key Lime Pie (and a release or two beyond). Pretty nice performance. Plus, stock Android (the way it was meant to be) is surprisingly full-featured and maturing. (And I'm still stuck on ICS.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sam razzy:
U jus go for nexus ... This phone is amazing...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
If you're buying off contract you might as well but the nexus now and you can sell it later and upgrade to the next one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bjh03b:
Like mentioned above, if you are buying off contract then why not? This is still an amazing phone and will continue to be an amazing phone even after the next iteration comes out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3pcssuits:
Gnex still a beast

The gnex is defiantly worth the purchase, The price is sweet and the phone itself is well made and is fast as all hell with JB. I say pull the trigger and get the Gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ET3RNA4:
Stuck on ICS? I'm still on Gingerbread! (G2X Here!)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Liquid_Cool:
Easy and simple answer when the topic is about the most recent dev phone..........Yes! Tc
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
I think you will have a hard time selling the current nexus in another 6 months time considering people only want to buy newer phones unless you virtually sell it for nothing, only iPhones seem to hold their value over longer times because their more popular , older android phones don't sell very well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
Well if any Android phone could hold value, it'd be a Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EmceeGeek:
Nexus S, maybe but not the Galaxy Nexus. LOL

I just got mine the other day for $300. I wish I got the GS3 instead, but I dont keep phones long so there was no point in dropping $200 more.

Long as the development is still rolling, its never too late for a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
How do people figure the S is worth more?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Psycho-:
Just had a discussion about this with some friends. One of them was asking if it was worth it buying the Galaxy Nexus.

Before I could answer and tell him that I at first was concerned (specs weren't anything amazing even when it was released, lack of SD card slot), another buddy who had gotten the HTC One X put it simply: "Get the Nexus! Best value you can get for $350..."

And he's right. It's at half the price it was when it first launched, and has been, and will continue, getting updates from Google. And it's practically the easiest phone to unlock, root, & flash, even if you don't like pure, stock Android. You can't go wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleach168:
It's not about which phone has the greater resale value. It's about which phone has a lower cost of ownership.

Buy a GNex for $350 and sell for $150 a year from now. Cost of ownership is $200.

Buy an iPhone 4S for $650 and sell for $350 a year from now. Cost of ownership is $300.

And I'm being very conservative with my numbers. The difference is probably greater.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 95Z28:
This. Not to mention I sold a year old g2x for 200 and they were junk. I'm convinced by this time next year it'll still be an easy sale to get at least $200 probably $250 out of a good shape GSM Gnex.

But resale wasn't the question, yes, its actually the only phone worth buying off contract if your wanting brand new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lox_Dev:
I am personally very happy with my Gnex and I do not plan to change it, except for the next Nexus. But I am not in a hurry to do so. It has a great battery life and is butter smooth. I also can play any 3D game.

- the screen could be better but I got used to

- the camera is bad at some light conditions

- the screen isn't scratch resistant (need a screen protection: XO skins screen protector made me happy)

- 13Gb of free storage isn't enought

And well that is all and it is non blocker for me. With the price drop in the US it definitely worth buying it if you "need" a new phone. If you don't, wait the next Nexus at the end of the year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jaycarag:
If you're going to buy it with contract, I suggest NO. Yes, GNex is still one of the best smartphones today BUT, a new one will be released and it will be better for you to wait. If you're just going to buy it without a contract then do so. Like I said, it's still one of the best smartphones out in the market today. Plus, this is an official google device meaning the updates will be earlier for the GNex. Not to mention the great support for the custom ROMs and MODs you can find here.

In the end though, it's still up to you. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackjer:
I just sold my OG Evo 4g for $100 on CL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] E!agle:
I really love my Galaxy Nexus. Of course, the specs aren't the best today, but what kind of apps you're running on everyday life that you need a quadcore processor? The Nexus got a big bright screen and in my hands it's a really light phone compared to other smartphones. Also I think it has got a great design and it doesn't have to be hidden from an iPhone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ttahatt:
This question gets posted almost every day. The gnex is absolutely still worth buying if you want a nexus and don't want to wait for the next one to come out, esp on Verizon. If non Verizon/non heavy into customizing, go with sgs3. I love my gnex and haven't one considered the sgs3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heyitsejohn:
bought an HTC One X, traded it for a Galaxy Nexus after three weeks, never looked back.

for me, stock feel is still the way to go. Sense 4.0 just wasn't doing it for me. and in the end, whether you like Sense or Stock, the GNex is so easy to mod and has such an active developer community that you can come up with anything you want and need easily. plus, you're sure to be first to receive Jelly Bean (like what already happened), and will likely be first in line (if not second) to get Key Lime Pie when it comes out next year.

in terms of performance, especially with a custom ROM and a good kernel, you'll never miss the Tegra 3's or the Quad-Cores. very very happy with its performance. with some tweaking, games like NOVA 3 or Dead Trigger display no lag whatsoever, and for regular performance, i'm on Minco ROM with Franco Kernel, and it FLIES.

battery life is pretty good too, so YES to a GNex.:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PaullieVicious:
Go for it, it's a great phone and being that it is a Nexus you will always have the most up to date Android versions possible... The Nexus One held in for a very long time and even the Nexus S and Nexus S 4G is still going really strong and is currently on Jelly Bean.. Go for it!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kudoboi:
games. there are quite a few games by gameloft and r* that lags on gnex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
People are buying gnex so they can be on stock jellybean by the sounds, I take quad core an better hardware over software, there will always be CM10 around the corner for most high end android phones anyway like sgs3, only reason to want gnex is if you want the benefit of quicker stock ota updates an all these different roms for gnex are never as good as official cyanogenmod roms anyway, a lot are just kangs of cm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjcapp:
Definitely yes the fun has just begun
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GateCityRadio:
I just ordered one yesterday. No regrets. It's still a good phone stats wise and pure android is well worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t.saddington:
DERP! Yes, got mine a few weeks ago. I have used a sgs3 running 4.0 and my JB Nexus beats it (In general use). (I am a big fan of the Nexus line)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yyz71:
Everybody is so keen on hardware.. But for me it's all about the software.. Sure cm team will release all there goodness for other phones.. But nothing beats pure jellybean.. I'd rather stick with my galaxy nexus :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dna99:
I definitely can reccommend the Galaxy Nexus. It might not be top notch today, but it's definitely still an abouve average phone, with a great screen and great possibilities and especially a great price

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Creutz:
Got me a new router from my ISP, of course there were issues instantly! Having problems connecting to wifi. Called my ISP and they said there is a bug somewhere in the router or in android itself. The router is a ZYXEL P-2812HNU-F1. They said I needed to get a static ip adress to each device. I got my Galaxy S2 up and running in no time, however, my HP Touchpad is not being so friendly. It says I'm connected but I get the grey wifi icon. Tried to disconnect and reconnect but no result. Also tried to forget the wifi and so on but no result. Also changed to b/g since it handles /n aswell. I've changed the router channel. In addition, my TP have begun to reboot randomly often in very fast cycles. I've flashed the Supreme mods a few days ago and everything worked flawlessly with my old router. Could the Supreme mod interfere with this maybe? Anyone please, this is so frustrating!

Edit: I'm on CM9 14 July build
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chicle_11:
The wifi icon color is blue when you're connected to the Google servers. I remember reading something similar to your situation, I'll post a link if I find it. Meanwhile, you've probably tried this, but in case you haven't, try turning the router off for a while, then turn it back on again. You might want to go to a later build, they're quite stable. I'm one of the lucky ones, only had any wifi issues once, and turning the router off then back on solved it for me.

Good luck.

Edit : Try deleting the Supreme mods, they might be the problem.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Creutz:
As you said, I've tried to switch off the router and put it back on but I tried it once again but no result. I've also removed the supreme mods but there is no difference. I still get the grey wifi icon. Maybe should try a newer build, so tiredsome though but maybe the only solution. Will call my ISP for a factory reset on the system aswell.

Edit: Managed to come up with a solution. My ISP wasn't of any help so I had to do something on my own. So, I changed the security to wpa instead of wpa2 and noticed that my tablet got connection! The thing is, I want to use the /n standard and wpa does not support that. So (again), I had to enable a second wireless network and luckily my router supports four. One network with wpa2 (laptop) and one with wpa (tablet). Not a pretty solution but it works!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BIGSimon:
I did read somewhere that giving the TouchPad a static IP address helped with a lot of WiFi problems, maybe its something you could try. I personally haven't had any WiFi problems so I have never needed to test it.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Creutz:
Made a little update on my previous post. The solution was that I needed to change the security on my network (wpa2 to wpa). But as you mentioned, I needed to set it to a static IP adress aswell. Up and running now, as I type at least;)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haxin:
try running an atheros update. i also prefer wifi analyzer for connecting to wireless networks rather than the android wireless settings. It shows you detail and information that android settings do not. Lets you configure channel options for B/G/N and A. plus more. its avail in google play.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] johnjohn25:
I'm wondering what RSS reader/google reader type apps you guys are using?

I have gReader Pro, Reader HD, FeedR, and NewsRob Pro. I have already also used the default google reader app and Just Reader and a few others. I still haven't found a google reader app that looks and works great. The main issues I have with the listed reader apps are that most don't display images properly, as in 70% of the screen is for the feed but pictures from flickr rss feeds or tumblr only show up as a small box fitting 10% of the screen; tons of unused space. Would be nice for an RSS reader app that smartly adjusted pictures for optimal screen usage.

Wish they'd make Reeder for android, that rss app is nearly perfect.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] ace7196:
gReader Pro. Best interface/everything.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] BlackDino:
Personally I love Reader HD

to each their own.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] bcvictory:
Reader HD or the official Reader App for me. Maybe flip board when it gets optimized for tablets.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] E_man5112:
What don't you like about JustReader? My go to tablet reader. Pictures show up pretty good, though not perfect. As for why an app doesn't do what you want it to do, trust me, it's a stupidly hard thing to do. You'd think it would be built in to android to make that an option, but by the time you are allowed to measure pixel size, all the automatic calls have passed. It takes some rewriting of how views measure themselves. I went through that with my Read It Later app I was working on before I canned it when Pocket came out.

For the apps that overcame that issue (JustReader being one of them) you then have the problem of online pictures being small. A 320x480 picture would be about 2.7" diagonally on a 7" 1280*800 screen. If you look at a feed like The Verge that uses large pictures, you will seem them fill edge to edge (on JustReader). However, other places use much smaller pictures. Then you have the problem that a lot of places send smaller pictures over RSS. For example, LifeHacker uses ~600x400 pictures on their website, but half that size on their RSS page. I will say I wish Just Reader handled images a little better in that it still centered the picture above the text (not hard to do, but I guess that was the devs design choice), but it scales pictures up to, but not past the devices native resolution, but it cannot magically make pictures higher res. None of these can. The alternative is super pixelated larger pictures.

*I don't mean to sound like a JustReader fanboy, it's simply the app I use and have experience with. I'm sure many of the other apps handle this the same way. I also feel that this is the most "Reeder" like app I've used. In fact, I prefer it due to the more customizable swipe gestures.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] ace7196:
Is Just Reader and app, or do you mean Google Reader?

If you mean Google Reader, does it work with podcasts?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] E_man5112:
I mean JustReader (no space, my bad). It claims podcast support in the free version, but I've never done that. Always kept podcasts and rss seperate.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] NZtechfreak:
gReaderPro. Best RSS reader available for Android from the functionality point of view, if you subscribe to dozens of feeds like I do it is really the way to go. If your RSS needs are more casual stuff like Flipboard and Currents or Pulse may suffice (prettier to look at).
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] john9:
I agree.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] jcjr81:
Greader Pro. Its the best I've used. The layout is good, it's fast and it's reliable.

You guys not using google current? You could import your rss from your google reader directly in the apps itself, pretty awesome
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] E_man5112:

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] johnjohn25:
