[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Danish989:
I wonder, because I've been trying to download BAMF Paradigm for the Nexus for the past hour, and there's still an hour left to download. I understand the load us android users can put on servers with our constant downloading and all, and that's just another reason I feel using torrents for this would help out a lot.

What do you guys think? Maybe something similar already exists and I'm just not aware. If so, care to enlighten me please?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wyattyoss:
I'm pretty sure CyanogenMod uses torrents
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xGary:
People need to use Mediafire more. No wait time, parallel downloads, download manager, no crippled speeds, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reuthermonkey:
You're kidding, right?

Mediafire's great except for that half the time it doesnt work on mobile browsers.

I'd much rather see ROMs distributed as torrents when they're not up for direct downloads.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lithid-cm:
This would be great for ROMs with a large fan base. For ones the only get a few hundred each release it would be pointless. On the other hand keeping downloads on servers allow ads, which helps the dev make a few bucks in donations to keep things running.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Many users does not even use torrent apps to download torrents, why share ROMs via torrent?

It's much better to use e.g: code.google.com where can download files really fast or other web pages which is not like mediafire because mediafire is really slow and when downloading ROMs via torrent then sometimes is no seeders and it takes much longer than downloading from internet..

I download movies and series via bittorrent programs but not any android ROMs.. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] veyka:
If you want to distribute things by torrent, you will generally need at the very least a seedbox to start things off, and if someone's using crappy hosting anyway, I doubt they want to shell out for a seedbox ;)

And if you are running a seedbox, you might as well just offer direct downloads as torrents can provide an extra support headache, and its harder to download to phone via torrents

Not to mention that some ISP's cripple them ;)

Some good, free hosts

Jumbo files

Dev host

Even 4shared or Google drive could work. There are also places like goo.im and androtransfer that will provide accounts to developers.

This is a solved problem, people just need to give up on rubbish hosts.

I have a spreadsheet of good, bad and ugly hosts that I need to clean up sometime.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Agreed about the seedbox issue. Goo.im is slower than heck though.

And whoever mentioned mediafire is smoking crack. BAMF Paradigm is already using paid hosting for roms. Sometimes I think its the user's connection. I am on a quite unremarkable 15/3 and can download any BAMF rom in 2 minutes tops.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
same. at work im sitting on a much better connection and it takes like 30sec tops
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Its nothing special (on my connection), but it works.

Certainly not an hour+ download.

Now I will concede that when I upload roms, I sometimes use temp hosting because I don't have access to the main hosting. That doesn't last more than a day or so, however.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Danish989:
Absolutely right about download speeds on BAMF Paradigm, by the way. It was something wrong with the regular server (perhaps just that night.) I went back after waiting for hours, and tried downloading via the mirrors, and the downloads completed within 10 minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ameer925:
my internet is extremely slow but goo.im goes fast for DLs so I dont think torrents are needed unless it's a giant sized file
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skittleguy:
So I have no idea what is happening with my phone, but it seems to be stuck in a single moment in time. Any changes that are made, texts received, apps (un)installed are reverted on the next reboot.

This wouldn't be a problem usually, except my phone randomly reboots when I'm doing normal things. It's become pretty unstable and pretty much is unreliable.

Before anyone says "just factory reset it", I can't. Any attempts to factory reset, fastboot flash, ODIN, CWM reflash, or OMAP flash (I got desperate) SAY they are successful, but the phone reboots to the same state as it was before.

I'm essentially at my wits end. Any attempts to return my phone to stock do nothing.

Any ideas or thoughts?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
I'm on a HTCDEV unlocked Inc2 and tried to get S-OFF tonight. Big fail. Hopefully somebody can help ASAP.

I relocked the bootloader through adb. Then went into bootloader, where the phone scanned and installed the RUU.zip I had renamed as per instructions. All went fineand I tried to open revolutionary but it kets scanning for deviced. Rebooted and but it keeps reloading the bootloader and trying the same RUU install over again and keeps failing saying "main version is older." ADB won't talk to the phone and now I'm dead in the water.

HEEEEELLLLP!!!!

Edit: Fastboot adb is talking and connected.

You try with taco root to downgrade?

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
Didn't think I could do tacoroot since I'm already rooted.

As an update. I was able to re-unlock and get back to the normal functioning bootloader. I actually hit factory reset and after showing the verizon update screen it booted into my old CM9 ROM. I totally botched this.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Addiso:
Actually you need taco root your just rooted from unlocked and soffing while unlocked is bad that's why you need to relocked use taco root method to get temporary root to achieve the downgrade and be able to use revolutionary

I read the instructions completely wrong. I though I had to lock- apply the gingerbread .zip , re-unlock and then revolutionary. Whoooops. Back to S-ON for me. I guess it'll have to wait for another night.

[General Questions and Answers] The_Mighty_Muffin:
Reflash Kernel!

Yeah, happened to me once, too!

The problem could be, that you are using a wrong kernel.

Try to reflash the original kernel and the standard rom of your phone and start over again!

And for the next time:

Read the threads

CAREFULLY

before flashing! This prevents errors and bricking.

Good Luck

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] theomni:
I've had some bad experiences with my last 3 HTC devices. Something I was really displeased about HTC is that they'll tout some of their devices as the greatest device ever and then stop supporting it within 3-4 months. This has happened with a phone I bought for myself, a phone I bought for my sister and the HTC Flyer.

My dad currently is looking for a new phone and he's had his eyes set on the HTC One X. I'm little bit hesitant because of HTC's behavior with keeping their device updated.

What is the say of the community on this phone? Mostly, people with negative experiences are the ones who are vocal about it so the good and complimenting threads get burred.

Are you guys waiting for Jelly Bean? How are you guys feeling about HTC with their work/support on this device? Has HTC been proactive in fixing whatever might be problematic?

Thank you, community!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Personally, between you and me, I'm telling my dad to get a Galaxy S3.

Having said that, I love my phone and would never trade it for a gs3.

I think HTC does a little better designing their phones hardware than other companies. Their software updates seem to take 3 months to happen and this latest update fixed most people's complaints about the software.

Having said that, Samsung has much more support overall. The whole ecosystem really. From finding cases in physical stores to finding other people who actually own the same phone as you.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hunt3r.j2:
Update-wise, HTC seems like they do get the updates out, but they sure do take their time...

If your dad wants something more user friendly and functional, Touchwiz is probably better than Sense, even if it looks much less refined. Samsung also is pretty good about source release, so if those things matter, go with the GS3. If he's willing to deal with the issues that the One X may have, it will be a great phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
Well, the question is, is your dad the kind of person who will actually care about getting updates? The most recent OTA from AT&T is 2.20, which is also coming stock on most phones now, and from what I understand, it's already pretty smooth and most of the bugs in previous versions have been squashed.

A Jelly Bean update has been guaranteed for the One X at some point, but will your dad care if it ever comes? Or does he just want a phone that works out of the box?

Personally, I love my One X and I'd be happy run AOKP or even a Sense-based ROM on it for 2 years. It's smooth and fast, has a great camera (even with AOKP), good battery life, and awesome build quality. Jelly Bean will be nice when it comes, but I'm not desperate for it - especially now that I'm running AOKP and have an ICS-compatible version of Google Now that (mostly) works.

That said, do I wish we had the dev support of the S3? Sure, but the One X has a much more limited audience, so it's just not going to happen.

Hi all,

I have a strange display issue where in I'm observing a blue tinge in my display. Kindly advice of there is anything i could do/test before taking to SSC. Many Thanks!

Please find image below. Although image is of poor quality the problem is clearly visible. Also this is clearly visible only under full brightness and when phone boots, but hardly noticeable when under normal brightness conditions and non black screen.

PS: Sorry for Poor image quality, i don't have a decent secondary phone/camera at the moment.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] selva.simple:
Key in *#0*# and try the LCD test for colours and sensors buddy. Check if everything is working fine. You can also try the app LCD Test. Seems like the LCD panel might have undergone some pressure. It may be like fallen, or some one pressed their weight over it, or exposed to heat(steam). Check if touch sensors are working in that spot.:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 'cooleagle':
Check whether actually it's a LCD issue or it's on the software side.

- Input *#0*# in the keypad & run the different colour tests Red, Blue, Green & Black.

- If the colors seem normal then it could be a software bug but incase you still see those bluish smudges on the screen then it could be a hardware problem.

- Flash the stock ROM, clear the cache, dalvik cache & check if it resolves your problem. (do a hard reset as the last option)

- Even if the above option doesn't help then take it to a service center as it could be a hardware(LCD) problem.

Do update here if it solves the problem. Hope this helps. :)

Cheers !
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] emanoj.i9103:
Thanks cooleagle and selva.simple.

I tried with the inbuilt colour tests and the LCD App. Every color is rendered perfect except for black. only in black screen i could see the blue smudges. That again with brightness on the higher side it is noticeable, with brightness around 30% it is hardly seen.

I'm away from system, hence shall try flashing stock rom and hard reset at a later point.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vipul12389mehta:
Just check wether you have tick/untick Auto adjust screen power option. try doing the opposite thing and then check if every thing is working fine.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] emanoj.i9103:
This is the issue when running with black screen. All other colors are reproduced fine. Vipul, i tried that makes no difference to the issue. :(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 'cooleagle':
Try flashing the stock ROM with a hard reset & if it doesn't solve then give it to the Service Center.

Cheers ! :)

SSC Updates

Hi All,

After one full week, SSC people called me up today, they said they haven't got any confirmation of replacement LCD shipment from Noida. Hence requested an ETA of 2 days. After that, if they don't get an confirmation on spare availability, they'll proceed with a replacement or refund!

Also, on my request, they agreed to let me use the phone till a decision is made or spare becomes available.

Request you guys to assist me on taking further steps if refund option is suggested by them. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 'cooleagle':
It's upto you mate. As ICS is finally here for our handset you can weigh your options. If you're willing to spend more money than what you'd payed for SGR then you can ask for a refund but if the budget stays the same i.e around 21k then there's very little competition to SGR even now.

BTW do ask them & tell us here how much they'll give you back incase of a refund so that everyone could have a ball park figure in their mind incase they also are given this option.

Cheers ! :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] emanoj.i9103:
I'm not interested in a refund option at all. I'm not interested in buying a handset in lieu of SGR. Can I demand for a replacement or repair and deny a refund request?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] selva.simple:
Yes. But its applicable only if a spare hardware or spare device is available. Only if both are not available, they can go for refund. Till a single piece of required hardware of another handset is available, you can deny the refund. I believe u r in Chennai buddy. Which area are you and where u have given it for service.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] emanoj.i9103:
Yep, I'm from Chennai,Thoraipakkam OMR. I gave it to a SSC in Salem(My hometown) as I had to collect my bill from home to take to SSC. So gave my phone there itself.
