Never heard of a 1950 battery for sgs2, best bet go with the 2000 mah one, there is a whole thread about it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Najuto9tail:
Thanks guys, I imagined the same thing. I will be checking out the 2000mah and the 3500mah. My phone battery used to give me more than 20 hours now it hardly lasts 4 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nisssan18:
i think that, what you need is to sync your battery, plug in and let it charge till 100%, after that, leave it charging 30 min. more, now, still conected to the power source, go to recovery mode, and swype the battery stats, and after it turn on, un-plug it, and now do 2 full charge cycles, that means, let the battery drain out 100% and let it charge till 100% without interrumption(power off the phone, and then plug it to the "wall"), do it 2 times, and now you'll notice a better battery performance:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Najuto9tail:
Thanks, I will try to do what you said. Since I sometimes charge the battery with a battery charger and not with the phone.

Edit- I did what you said and I noticed that the battery does in fact holds a longer charge. I bought this battery on ebay and I am waiting to receive it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/270992164008?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

I have bought from that seller before, it seems a very good price for it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mattdm:
Actually that doesn't do anything at all for Galaxy S2 devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MaxRabbit:
That's not a very informative reply, lol

Fortunately, I know what you're referring to, which is a post by a Google engineer that wiping battery stats has no affect on battery life.

If most of the time we download a rom or mod on 4g the md5 do not match Should that apply for play store updates and apps , I'm thinking we should use wifi for every app or update. Or am I wrong?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Always good to use wifi but best to download straight to PC, then transfer to SD card. Never had a bad download they the PC.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
What dante32278 said.

I download on PC 99% of the time, check md5sum.

Transfer to SD card on phone via USB.

Then check md5 sum of file I copied to phone.

Literally a few more minutes but saves LOADS of frustration of having bad downloads and getting stuck during a ROM flash or other update. Then having to use the PC anyways.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] djjosh:
I mean stuff from the play store , we would never know if the download got corrupted a little
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Generally apks don't get corrupted....and if the download goes bad, android won't install it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acid123:
Sadly I couldn't resist and pop the back cover off as my screen was only slightly out,

Tightened the screws not too tight and put the cover back on,

Now few hours later the touchscreen started acting up,

Apps, browser all opening up on there own,

Couldn't even restart it it so held the power to switch off and on,

But now on startup the screen doesn't respond to any touch,

So can't unlock the screen or even shut it back down,

Holding the power button to switch off only restarts it...

Anyone know of a solution to fix this???
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] janedoesmith:
You can use an OTG cable with a USB mouse or keyboard as a method of input.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiskey_Tango:
Maybe you could pop the back cover off again and check to make sure that none of the connections are loose.

[HTC One X] Jaimesco12:
Hello, a guy off craigslist is asking me to trade me my htc one x quadcore for a galaxy note att unlocked for tmobile and he says he will add 60 dollars extra is this a good deal?
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
No cos the HTC One X is miles ahead of the Note :) Unless you want a bigger screen.
[HTC One X] PhoenixFx:
It all depends on what you want from the phone. Personally Note is a little too big for my liking. But if you want a bigger screen, better battery life, and don’t play 3D games then a note could be a better phone for you. But remember AT&T variant has a slightly less powerful Snapdragon chip instead of the Samsung Exynos chip found in the international variant. I think Galaxy Note + $100 would be a fair trade..
[HTC One X] Jaimesco12:
Got you that guy offered me 60 then said he wanted to do a straight trade LOL hes stupid. He said their both worth the same smh....
[HTC One X] KLUVJ:
think about this, that note doesnt even have the exynos dual core, but has one of the weakest dual core processers out there, the qualcomm s3, which is only based on cortex a8, whilst other dual cores and quad cores are cortex a9, and the s4 goes so far as to a15. so in really, that not has the weakest performace out of most high end smatphones, but if u are intrigued by its size and att speeds, then go ahead. otherwise, HELL NO
[HTC One X] Jaimesco12:
Nah i wanted It for tmobile and for the size but he wants a straight up trade, thats a steal!!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] korcha:
the cm9-based roms' (owain, nova, pandroid) sound is EXTERMELY small and broke that even l can't hear the sound

except incall sound and earphone sound (i mean while i jacking my earphone, earphone works fine)

i don't know the reason but i'm sure this isn't any installing problem
[LG Optimus 2x] RknDroidFreak:
CM9 ROM for O2X tend to have lower volume than stock, but not so low as to be complained. I have tried all ROM above and never experienced that.

Maybe something is wrong in your configurations..maybe some app is limiting it.

Or it maybe hardware problem of your speakers!! If you still have warranty, contact the supplier. (Flash stock ROM/unroot before that!!)
[LG Optimus 2x] korcha:
reply

In stock roms the sound just works fine

but in only cm9 based roms sound disappear

i dont know what this happen....

P.S. in cm9 selfkang2 the sound works...(rmcc's)
[LG Optimus 2x] RknDroidFreak:
This is unique!

Have you checked it after wiping everything and flashing the ROM but without restoring the data? It can be some of you setting that makes sound off, and that specific setting data is recognized in Domination, nova, paranoidandroid but not in stock and other CM9 kangs.

Its a weird problem as actual sound drivers have nothing to do with ROMs. And there is no similar complain in ROM thread either. I guess you just have to work with working ROM and try above ROMs after they get an upgrade.
[LG Optimus 2x] darenb4:
i have noticed the same. early builds of cm9 the sound was fine (unlocking screen selection etc).. the further on we have got the sound seems to be getting quieter.. only fix i seen was in qwians builds they had a system volume slider in sounds this helped alot with sound. not as good as stock but better than normal cm9..

hope this helps:)
[LG Optimus 2x] aldyu:
Im experiencing quite the opposite, cm9 roms seems to have louder sounds compared to cm7.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Da_G:
Hey guys, been away for a while since my note bit the big one (ran into a door with it in my shirt pocket and demolished the screen/case not to mention my ribs, lol)

I think i've hobbled it back together enough to continue kernel development work on it, just can't see/use the screen very well due to damaged digitizer/lcd, looking to get an overclock kernel for ICS released soon (development starting now), for now i'm using DDMS etc. to control it.

Does anyone have a lead on a new/used AT&T G Note on the cheap for development? I'm starting up the codewriting right now but testing is difficult with the device largely not working.

Look for a new thread in the development section soon :)

Edit: I see there is an OC kernel available here: https://github.com/h0tw1r3/kernel_samsung_sghi717/downloads

Should I not bother to continue development in light of that release? I note that kernel does not support GPU overclocking.

Of course, I'd have to admit, it was Da_G's

creation and his gratis offer of, correct me if I'm wrong, the first OC kernel for the galaxy note that spun my head.

See:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22684223

The thing is Da_G does real hardcore work. Guys like me twitter from the sidelines in comparison . So if you can, skip that new $6 ebay rubber case (you have 3 already) and buy him a beer, and if you can't then take the time to let him know you appreciate his work and his willingness to share it with the community. Now, if you could scare up an old under utilized note for gratis or a steal, that would be the best; then I or some other xda'er would likely be writing something like this about you.

Well said brother ....and thank you !!..

I'm committed to giving back to the community as much as I'm able. And it's the great development team here in the note section that keeps me coming back .

And ya know , it's really pretty easy to save those few bucks now and again , and give them up to our cause.

Just a few less bacon cheeseburgers will do it , and presto !....developer money !! Then send it off .

Without question those dollars will be well spent.

Da_G is our boy ...and we've got his back ...as we already know that he has ours .

But he needs that new note !....so lets get it done .

I'm pretty sure that anybody with an original AT$T note , used his root kernel to get unlocked. And for that alone he should get our help. Sooooo.....Christmas in August ???

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Best advice for installing a ROM is to follow the instructions in the first post of that thread. A nandroid is performed in cwm recovery. It's simply a backup of where your phone is right now. It is performed under backup and restore (not actually called a nandroid).

do i then need to root it?

ROM should be rooted already.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hapticxchaos:
Bit of a newb as well, best way to install a ROM;

Root using the no trip method stickied at the top of the dev forum.

Download and install goo manager and use this to install twrp, a great alternative to cwm.

Download and place the ROM of choice on the sdcard, and boot into recovery (home+vol up+power)

Perform a back up, then wipe and install!!

I really rely on Facebook contacts sync as it has pretty much all the numbers i need. I know there are apps like Friendcaster and Haxsync but those do not sync the numbers with the profiles. My GNex is running stock 4.1 right now and it is rooted I believe, since i rooted it myself last night (i think i did it right). Is there something that will allow me to Facebook Sync my contacts and still keep the standard OS without noticing anything changed. Or i guess in other words, how can i quickly enable it so that it can sync and then delete whatever i put to enable it to do that so that I am back at square one just this time with all my contacts I would backup and put on my computer. Using a standard GSM Gnex on the latest Jellybean update, I hope I was descriptive as possible. Also I am a noob so please don't go too crazy on me, I've never actually done any of this stuff but i just want my contacts so i can use the stock until im comfortable doing more of this

Custom ROMs usually have Facebook sync working fine, you could also search how to modify a stock google image to allow facebook sync, if I'm not mistaken you'll need root and busybox, you will need to edit a text file and run a script that will update a database in your phone... Unfortunately I don't have this information handy, so, you'll need to search for it if you want to modify stock rom (remember, you need root), or, you can always use custom roms that do not have this limitation.
