[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayush29k:
There is no need to change the baseband unless you are having any problems in the rom because of it.

The baseband change referred in the apocalypse thread is for changing the region of the firmware, not the version. You may use 2.3.7 for you region, but if there is any problem with the rom that a reflash or fresh Odin install is not solving, or due to app 2 sd scripts, then you should try a firmware from a different region, it has helped many people.

If the region(firmware's) you are going for has a different version then you have no choice but to downgrade.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dblane79:
thanks for the info. its much clearer now!

i did want to try a different baseband because of the app2sd bugs on the one i have.(with link2sd and amarullz)

It seems quite straightforward to flash another baseband with odin so might give it a go.

is there anyway to bkup the one i have now? or to find a download link? had a quick look on sammobile.com but didnt find the one i currently have(S5830NEKT2)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayush29k:
You can make a cwm backup,but i don't know if it backs up the baseband or not.

i mean if you restore this on another firmware then you will get this baseband back or not, i am not sure about that.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryuinferno:
Yes, it does...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 289jul:
I'm not sure to completely understand.... If I choose the baseband of my country (XWKS9) and I flash on my cm7.2 stable official I'll change the firmware also no ?? If yes can you tell me how to change the baseband without change firmware ?

Thanks

Just flash the cwm zip for baseband or also known as modem...it will only change the baseband then...but i don't see much need of doing so because it's seldom that baseband causes problems...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayush29k:
It is quite rare but its there with the apocalypse rom, somehow the rom +sdext scripts have different compatibility with different basebands.

Hey Xda people,

So this is my situation. I have a HTC senseation and I am using to updating roms etc. However I have a friend with HTC legend where her stock rom has stopped working, the touch freezes. So I said I would help root and put a new rom on.

I have been reading the extensive forum and found lots of conflicting information. Which normally would be fine because if I found a rom did like it I would change it straight away. However this is for a friend that's it not tech savvy, and it need to work right and be the best first time around. So I need help in choosing the right rom and radio firmware etc. The requirements are quite simple her is not a power user. important things a battery life and stability.

please help

Regards

Mac Tzu
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
My opinion, for simplicity, stability, reliability, performance & where everything simply "works", you can't go past cyanogen mod, latest stable is 7.2 (there have been some nightly's released since 7.2 came out which work for me without issue). If you want something a bit more fancy go for homICS its based on cm7.2 anyway,with quite a few tweeks :cool: of course these are all gingerbread 2.3.7 there are a few froyo roms that are also pretty much perfect eg. blay0s b0.8.4 & some others I can't think of as I type that would also be worth considering.

There are plenty of other great roms too, but I didn't specificaly mention any of them as they are pretty much still W.I.P. and not quite 100% yet, but it might be worth having a read through the associated threads anyway...
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mactzu:

Does it increase flash count?

Hi,

I've recently moved from the LeeDroid HC ROM to Dexter's JB rom.

Is it possible to port the HTC Locations application from the 'stock' to custom roms for ICS or JB?. I realise that Google Maps are available, but I'd like that with the HTC Locations application I could have the entire map available without the need for a data connection.

Hello Friends,

I cant put Xperia Ion LT28i into flashmode. The phone is seen by the flashing tool then it asks to power off the device and push the back button and connect USB while holding the back button. but unfortunately green battery logo appears and nothing happens.

could you please inform me how to enter flashmode successfully?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 424aca:
power + volume down

(post in questions and answers section next time)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fcb13:
Use the Q&A section, we have it for a reason. But to answer your question, you hold the lower volume button down.

Sorry if I posted in a wrong place but when I press power + volume down key the phone boots normally.

Should USB debugging mode be connected?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 424aca:
i dont know if it should be on...but it would not hurt to try.

also. For flashmode,

turn device off--->insert micro usb into phone while the regular usb is not in computer----> before inserting normal usb, hold the volume down button and then insert

I will try and post it.

[SOLVED]

Dear XDA Members,

i did read up already the board to look for a solution for my issue, and did read as well the noob (which i am) instructions but couldnt find a solution to my help.

I tried to install the "NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-HWA_V2.5.zip" image and now i am stuck at the boot animation (the one with the flakes) after restarting.

Here is what i did:

1.installed Mgldr 1.13

2. Clockworx Mod Recovery

3. Recovery_400M

4. Boot up => Choose AD Recovery => install zip from SD Card => Choose the zip file and install

5. Reboot

6. Tahts where i am now . The phone boots up HTC logo appears and the bootup animation with the flakes or how ot call them appears. And thats where its stuck. looping at that stage.

Edit: I did use HD2Toolkit to repartition to a system partition of 250 MB and cache size 45 MB. and Radio-Leo-2.15.50.14

SOLUTION:

Somehow the NAND zip file was broken. I downloaded again, did repeat the same procedure for installation and everything worked after rebooting

Grumpy
[HD2 General] Ganderdnaw:
How did you determine that you needed 250 mb system partition and 45 cache? Just wondering. It might fix my stability issues that I have with my hd2 with this build.

Unless you have removed it you already have a screen protector on your Play. It's functional against screen shattering. As of some comments here, you get more scratches with the screen protector than with the bare screen, as it's made of some mineral glass.

Hi all, I've looked thoroughly but cant find an app that simulates a trackpad/mouse for another android, does anyone know one? Basically the host app needs a bluetooth etc. input method, and the controller app (possibly part of the same app) would be a trackpad. There is something called "tablet remote" but that seems to just be game controllers, so only arrow key navigation (not always enough), anyway thanks in advance.

As you are on a safe kernel just download cm9 and gapps put it into your sd card, reboot to recovery (cwn) wipe data/cache /dalvik cache flash cm9, then go to advanced options and reboot recovery once rebooted flash gapps and reboot system.. That's it no need to go back to gb
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahilarora2003:
You can use Mobile ODIN Pro for the same. It does the job and doesn't cause Triangle on boot and doesn't cause count. :D

Just download GB Rom from dr ketans thread or www.sammobile.com and put it in your SD Card.

Open Mobile Odin.

Select the file in the column Open the file.

And Start Flashing. Remember to check for md5 checksum before flashing if it asks and Wipe Dalvik/Cache. :D

Done :D

Now you have Stock GB Rom on your Note.

Or

You can use Abyss Redpill Recovery Original Logo.(Reboot into CWM and flash Abyss 4.2)

Reboot Recovery

Now Full Wipe.

Flash cm9

Flash Gapps

Reboot System

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grim_Visage:
Hello there everyone. I have been browsing this site for about the past 2 years but only decided to register because I am upgrading from my OG Droid Incredible to the Nexus and i see how large and active the Dev base is for this device. I have a fair amount of experience with flashing roms on my Dinc (currently running CM7.2) and am excited to make the move to ICS.

I would like some opinions on what you guys think are the best custom roms out for the nexus though. so far I am very interested in AOKP because it seems to be the most stable and polished rom i have seen. I plan to flash my nexus right out of the box when i get it.

Also, i can't seem to find a place to add a signature in the Cpanel, is there one somewhere or do you guys just add on a Copy/Paste to the end of posts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
If you've been around this site for a couple of years now you should know that asking "what the best ROM is" only leads to closed threads. Its all a matter of opinion. What works for one person may not necessarily work for another.. why this person thinks this ROM is the best, another person may think the opposite. It's best to try them out for yourself, see which one YOU like.

As far as editing your sig.. at the top somewhere on your PC, you'll see User CP (user control panel).. click it. Then look to the left if your screen.. along the sidebar you should see Edit Signature. ..if that's what your referring to! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grim_Visage:
i'm sorry if i come off like i want to know what the "best rom" is, i know that there is no best rom and like you said what works for one person may not work for another. that being said, some personal opinions about their taste in roms are still useful are they not?. and i do fully intend to try out several roms. as for my experience with this site, 90% of it has been with viewing the first page of rom posts, so i apologize for my ignorance in that regard. and i thoroughly searched through the user control panel to no avail, signatures must be disabled for me if that is where the interface to change them is located.

[EDIT] the reason joined this site is because with the nexus, i would actually like to get involved in the dev community and create something new, i was trying to use this thread more as a "say hi" kind of thread than just asking about what rom i should get. i dont think i accomplished that very well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iceshark:
My advice is to just unlock bootloader, root and then run STOCK ROM. I have been running ROMS on phones here for a long time and for the first time on a phone think at this point the STOCK rom is the best and most stable.

[General Accessories] anabellita:
Hi everybody. Not sure where to post this question, so please move if this is not the most suitable place.

Yesterday I bought a new 32GB microSDHC card casas 10. I then proceeded to partition it, creating one FAT32 partition and one EXT2 partition using the Minitool Partition Wizard on Windows XP. I then copied a few flashable zips with ROMs on them to try out.

This morning, as I set out to flash a new ROM, I noticed on the instructions that I needed a third SWAP partition. So I went back to the drawing board and created one. So far so good.

Except that then a few strange things happened:

* Partition wizard, after giving me the thumbs up, did not recognize the 2 partitions it had supposedly created (I restarted the program, unplugged and re-plugged the card, etc.). So I "un-partitioned" (sic) and re-partitioned. I hope this didn't screw anything up. Only later did I read that this was normal because XP does not recognize EXT2 or SWAP, which is why the wizard was showing it all as an "unallocated" lump.

* Although windows saw the files on the SD card, it did not allow me to transfer new any new ones. :confused: The system told me the device was not ready and asked me whether I wanted to format. After trying a few times, I ended up accepting, but the formatting process failed. ...or maybe it was at first and then no more, can't remember. Thing is, there are no more files on the card (which is fine, no need to recover them)

These things didn't happen in this particular order, rather, it was a going back and forth with both issues, including a request from partition manager to re-start, only to get a message saying partitioning was not possible because the file system had changed (???). It did go through upon retrying though (no re-start required)

Now:

1. partition wizard sees the sd card, but windows explorer doesn't.

2. partition wizard sees it as fully used up (no free memory left), even though there is nothing on it

3. partition wizard found the whole card to have errors in every sector but won't give me options to correct them.

4. windows is still unable to either format or explore the sd card

Wiping did not help. Formatting and resizing are not an option. I could delete the partition, but at this point I'm afraid of what that would do. No need to recover anything, but I would hate to have to go out again and get a new card.

Can you please help me?

Thanks!
[General Accessories] anabellita:
ok, spent some more time scouring the web, and something occured to me... could it be that by doing a DoD wipe with Minitool partition wizard I re-wrote the partition (which is why it is full) and also protected it (which is can't re-format)?

of course, that doesn't answer the question of why windows XP (and windows 7 on my other machine) won't recognize the card....

PS. apologies for the double post , but seeing as there were 36 views and no replies, i thought I'd let people see that there was additional information here... hope that's alright
[General Accessories] besieger1:
Your problem could be windows since when it sees a USB or HDD with ext2 it thinks its corrupted and asks to format and fails...

from what i know ext2 is used for linux so i would try your program on a linux distro. i could be wrong though :)

it might not help using windows xp

good luck
[General Accessories] mikef:
After reading both of your posts I have no idea what type of device you have. That is the first step, check out your devices General or Q&A forums.

Look at the top of the browser window, see where it says Find Your Device... type in the first few letters of the name and see if it doesn't come up there. The first and best source of information like you are asking for is in there, or if you can't find it by searching, it is the best place to ask.

Also, since you are new to XDA, I would suggest giving this guide a read as it may answer some of your questions and help you find out where to look for the answers.

[General Accessories] anabellita:
Thx. The device is an htc wildfire s, but I don't see how that is relevant.

What I have is a microsdhc card that has no data on it yet is full.

Although the card has been used, it suddenly requires formatting. However, neither win xp, nor win 7, nor partition wizaed, nor my camera nor Recovery on my phone are able to successfully format.

Now when I plug it into either PC (win xp and windows 7) the system no longer recognizes it when I go into My PC, whereas partition wizard (running on both those systems) can.

And now I wonder whether the DoD wipe of the partition could be to blame...

Isn't it fair to sy that the issue s device-neutral?

I think your problem may be Windows, because when it sees a USB or hard drive with ext2 that damage to the required format and failure Check your equipment in general
