[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airchie:
I've been given a SGS2 to mess about with and I'm having a bit of trouble with it.

The first thing I'm confused about it which variant I have.

I see on the sticker under the battery

Model: GT-I9100

SSN: I9100GSMH

Does that mean its the 'G' variant?

I think it was on Orange UK previously.

The second thing I confused by is the different flashing and rooting options.

I see you can use ODIN or CWM, you can use ODIN to flash pit/kernel/CSC/PDA files etc.

However, I've read references to using insecure kernels to allow rooting causing warning triangles and there being better methods.

Some refer to PIT files needing to be used to fix soft-bricks and some posts say never use them.

I'm just really confused by there being so many conflicting posts.

If anyone can answer some of the questions, even if it's just with links to helpful posts/threads I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance all. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
It is NOT the G variant.

G variant would say:

Model: GT-i9100G

Regarding the SSN: portion, the G following I9100 is part of the "GSM" portion of the string, identifying what type of phone it is.

In terms of reading: start here.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivg86:
please help.i have just updated my note from gingerbread lc1 to criskelo v11 using cwm and abyss kernel.......

Everything is working fine except that I have no mobile data connection. Wifi and voice calling is fine though.when i enable 2g data from the settings,it doesn't show e sign in the notification.....criskelo is working like charm and very good custom rom........

but my 2g vodafone mobile net is not working,my wi-fi is working fine.....what is the problem??????
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] divinestyler:
I'm experiencing the same issue as well. What I found that works for me is installing Criskelo V8 first and then updating to V11.2, without doing any wipes. For whatever reason, V8 3G/network works and it seems to carry thru if you update to 11.2 without doing any wipes (factory reset, dalvik or cache wipes).

It was suggested trying different modems other than LMK as well during the Aroma install process. I tried every modem type as well as every Kernel combination and still did not resolve issue for me. The only solution that got me network 3G connection working again was restoring my V8 backup and then updating to V11.2. Using this method, it did not matter what modem I selected - they all worked.

Hope this helps!

Hi mates,

did some of you notes the poor audio when recording Videos ?

I tried several times, and if the video is recording a normal voices, friends, pets.. etc at home or out the sound looks good and clear

but when I tried to record video in a club or in front of a beach bar all the videos are with poor audio

I compared them with my friends galaxy S3 who was with me on the sea side, and his videos were all with perfect quality - video and audio

even played on the computer after that.

i thought that no one can beat my HOX camera, but his night photos looks also better and much more lighter compared to mine which are yellow and dark :(

any ideas ?

Hello forum!

I brought the Samsung Galaxy S3 2 weeks ago and since day one ive been irritated that the display brightness settings are stuck on the scrollbar and ive had enough for now :) I was wondering if anyone have a solution to my problem becuse ive been searching for one a while now and if others are equally irritated (or even more) they can read this thread and get help to :)

Thanks in advance!

Ummm, that's not a bug, that's a new 'feature'. Only way to remove it is to flash an earlier ICS build or a custom ROM.

I found antivirus companies claiming that there might be a danger of attacking virus for a rooted phone . Is that true? Because I never heard about virus attacking a linux os.. Beside antivirus draining lots of battery... Moreover xperia p is not really efficient in battery back-up . What do u suggest about antivirus? Are they needed? If so, which one is battery saver?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] martin255:
I never use Antivirus software on my phone. They just slow down the system and drain your battery.

It has been 7 days from now when I bought a new HTC One V. Until now it was running very smooth. I was quite impressed and content with it. But, when I installed a game (Asphalt 7) in an unofficial way, my phone started a lag a bit. When I press the menu button, the loading icon comes up for about 5 seconds, then all the apps get loaded. Before it used to load up things quite fast. That loading icon is really annoying me. Please help me what should I do. And I'm new to this Android platform. So, don't know much about it.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ColdStoner:
Hello all,

This is kind of a strange request... but there is a reason.

My Inc went for a swim over the weekend, I took it apart and let it dry for several days... Everything cameback EXCEPT it seems the Broadcom comunications chip is dead.... this is causing the Wifi and Bluetooth to continualy try to enable and re-initialize the driver which is causing high load on the phone.

Thoughts, Ideas?

Thank you,
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Mabey im not understanding, but cant you just turn off bluetooth and wifi from within the os?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ColdStoner:
Normally yes... but the wifi is in a strange state... the wifi toggle is stuck in the turning on phase and I am unable to do anything with it at that point.... why I figure if I can find out where in the init/startup it is triggered and stop it there it might help.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Well you would need to get a kernel, extract the ramdisk and edit one or both init.rc and init.inc.rc, to dissable wifi and bluetooth. Then recompile and flash it.

- is there a PC Tool to do it

- can the position be manipulated by e.g. just changing the order in certain files / dirs ?

- how to save / backup the positions of the widgets and apps on several screens to have it after a CWM recovery ?

The easyest way to do this is titanium backup backup all apps with data and also Xperia launcher data and app.

Move backed up files to other device install titanium and restore the apps and launcher with data. Thia should work. I have done it many times.

Some times the launcher will miss one or two apps witch will not show icons but a blank place holder (hard to find) in both the app screen and on the interface itself

Hi,

I have a problem when i use any ICS rom with any version of siyah kernel, my phone always switches off at random times and i have to pull the battery to boot up again.....i usually wake up in the morning to find it off and with most of the battery life drained.

Every time i flash a rom i do the usual clearing the data/cache/dalvik/superwipe and kernel cleaning script and it still shuts down.

I have been using Phenomenal kernel instead and that works perfect and never closes or experience battery drain but i want to use siyah for doing dual boot.

Anybody got any ideas to what the problem may be?

Cheers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
well if dual booting is ur main concern then u can try

[HTC One X] Itadakiimasu:
My brother's HTC one X (international) has this problem it freezes and delays when being turned on and automatically overheats and the error it always shows according to him is "com.android.phone has stopped working" or something similar. He's not rooted and he was just copying some video files as usual and updated his phone while he was at it.

He's telling me it might be a virus? can androids get infected like that? and he also tells me the battery dies faster than usual even though he clears ram and closes application via task manager. He lives in another country and never used a forum before and we both tried getting answers from google to no avail but I did tell him to get it replaced as a last resort since he still has his warranty if we can't find a solution here. So are there any quick hotfix to this without rooting since he doesn't know how and doesn't want to? thanks in advance.

UPDATE: I went over a skype video call with him and he showed me his problems and turning on took awhile around 2 mins (stuck at HTC one X quietly brilliant logo) then after that a 5-10 sec black screen delay, when he entered his pattern password it takes awhile to go open and it stays 2-3 mins that way while it says loading. Then once he gets on his home screen his applications changed their icons to android icons (the green robot). He opened some apps like Dead Trigger and it takes awhile to load like 30-70 seconds he even tried other apps as well and it's the same result. From time to time it overheats on its own without even any apps on.
