Trinity ELP for GB

I tried everything out there and always go back to that. Fast, smooth, and good battery life. Plus it seems to be the only one that my phone's bluetooth can stay connected to my car's stereo. with other kernel (maybe coincidence), the two refuse to connect after a few connect/disconnect cycles.

also, many people say 24+ hr of moderate use. Is that with stock battery?

to me, moderate use = 3-4hr screen on time. 1hr phone call. wifi, BT, 4G, GPS always left on. 50% screen brightness. I typically get 12-18hr with trinity.

Heavy would be 5+hr screen on and more
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Aricrj:
Trinity gives me sleep of death, faux overheats and freezes I'm using the kernel that came with cm7 without any problems. Though I did get the SOD before I installed the build.prop tweaks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SpaceRanger69:
I've always been a big fan of morfic's Trinity ELP kernel (dated Feb. 6th, 2012). Unfortunately I don't see this kernel linked on his old site (just the ones dated in 2011).

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arqda:
so to heart of problem

i flashed radio:N_01.77.36P

and it wont boot it just loops on "Motorola:dual core" screen

but when i flash France radio N_01.100.00R_France voila it works like charm

MB861 from korea fyi

so my question is:

can i use N_01.100.00R_France on AT&T's network

why won't N_01.77.36P work with my Atrix

AND will it work on T-mobile w/o carrier unlock (expecting no for this one)
[HTC One S] advil0:
So I was at work today and my phone was charging in it's usual place, until one of my co-workers walks by not paying attention, catches his foot on the power surge it was plugged into, and my phone goes flying face down. The phone still works fine but the cracks really bother me.

I have insurance on it, but the deductible is $140. Should I pay the deductible and go the insurance route? Or should I pay ~$50 to get a new digitizer and do it myself, voiding my warranty?

Suggestions welcome.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Get your company or coworker to pay for it? Otherwise, 140 sounds reasonable for a screen repair.
[HTC One S] advil0:
The company would never cough up $140 for something like this considering it was an accident. We're a retail company, so inherently we're cheap bastards.
[HTC One S] ickedmel:
I would advise just coughing up the $140. Maybe the person that broke it could pay some of it ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toast6977:
I was just wondering if there is a tmo wifi calling app for any of the JB roms that are currently available for our Vibrant...

I've been through a lot of threads and haven't seen any mention of it. Haven't yet flashed JB yet (should be tomorrow though!).

Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hongzhou94:
There are several VOIP apps on the market, namely Google Voice, which allows free calling irrc. I am not aware of any VOIP apps by TMo though.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hobbesfed:
Google voice is only for the States. Use talkatone, ChatON, Kakaotalk, or just search on Google play store. Sorry can't give links, I'm on my phone so just search it. Not too hard to find. Good luck!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toast6977:
No, no, no. T-Mobile users can use the T-Mobile WiFi Calling App. Its been made to work on Froyo, GB, and ICS.

In areas where you have little to no cell signal, you can connect to WiFi, and this little app allows you to send and receive calls and texts just as if you had perfect cell signal.

My original question, was inquiring as to whether or not anyone had tinkered with it and made it compatible with any of the current JB builds.

JB is still new, so it comes as no surprise that it hasn't been done yet.

No big deal. Reason I originally posted that, was because if one ROM had it working over another, then I would have tried that ROM first :) as I said no biggie.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jblizzard888:
anyone find anything? my cell signal at my house is terrible, but I'm loving Slim JB
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ascallop:
AFAIK, T-Mobile wifi calling was made to work on froyo and GB, but never on ICS, several devs tried it, but weren't able to make it work. I doubt there'll ever be T-Mobile wifi calling for the Vibrant on JB.

Have you tried bobsled app?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradley_e_smith:
ics version is available for Gw (desire z)

Look for a jelly bean version and stumbled across this posting. For the t-mobile G2 there is an ICS version which works.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanwal236:
We just bought a Galaxy S2 from t-mobile, it came preinstalled with the new ICS update on it already (brand new device). The device has Wifi calling built in. It's not a separate app though, its built into the device settings, enabled and disabled from there. Looking for it on my Vibrant though :s
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toast6977:
You can get it for lots of Froyo, GB, and even some ICS roms (I think), but no JB yet.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rescateurbano:
I'm using Bobsled app on my Defy with Android 4.1.2 without problem, but I'm pretty sure it can be configured with another "standard" SIP client like CSIP or 3CX (just don't know how to do it...)

I'd tried to see what's the SIP credentials on my own account using wireshark in the middle, but only have on clear that the SIP gateway is: wvp.vivox.com:5062

If anyone could help us on the right direction, should be nice... ;)

- Possible brickbug fix.

But then it still have risk,

You are better off doing it from Notecore kernel which has a double-safety net against erase commands.

Another note by Entropy512-

"If you run a custom kernel with MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled - you will be safe.

If you run CF-Root 5.6 (with erase disabled in recovery) - You will be safe to wipe and factory reset, but you are NOT guaranteed safety when flashing other firmwares - they can use a dangerous update-binary."
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
It is mmc cap erase disabled. Thats why the devs include the 5.6 in their custom rom. The only time the devs stop including the 5.6 because chainfire is in vacation and chainfire last 5.6 is lrg.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Here some clearance what i know

CF root kernel have Emmc erase cap disable in his recovery, not in kernel.

So it is safe to perform wipe, nandroid backup/restore. But not safe to flash other stuff which can have dangerous update binarry, in such case still such command goes direct to kernel and can lead to Brick.

Now this will make sense why recovery is used by other custom kernel. e.g. Notecore, that contains safe recovery from CF, and kernel also have disabled emmc erase cap command.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
Thank you Dr. Ketan for making it so clear.

Thus goku and speedmod have the same safety as notecore, safe in CWM and also the kernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
That really i am not aware of speedmod and goku have this or not, as i never used that and didn't studied deeply. I have read OP of speedmod kernel, which clearly mentioned about kernel, but i am not knowing about recovery. But If kernel is safe then i think thats safe, b'coz if any recovery pass any bad script ultimately it will be block by kernel.

Though if i am wrong someone can correct me.
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
Here is the mail I sent to LG-Singapore for ICS :

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Received Date : 12/08/2012 12:59 52

The type of inquiry : Software/Hardware updates

Product/Model No. : GSM/LGP970

I had a good life before buying your p970 aka Optimus Black. Now I am feeling cheated by a global company (of course LG) who is not on keeping there its promises for software update. You guys have no idea about your customers who bought your product hoping upgrade like other global companies. In other clear words, issues are :

a.) ICS upgrade

b.) Lack of information from your side

c.) Ignoring customers mails about same.

I cant understand that what will be the problem with a brand like LG for ICS update for its flagship mobile when other companies are moving to jelly-bean, you guys are not even saying a single word for ICS yet. If you have not such qualified developers then release drivers for public so they can develop a rom their own, as they are tied with drivers limitation.

Seriously, if you cant upgrade your mobile then release all the drivers to public (e.g xda developers). They will sure develop one ICS for p970.

Is it wot you call "LIFE IS GOOD"? SURE NOT!

Thank you.

Looks managed by some 9th-10th class student.

So disappointing:confused:
[LG Optimus Black] DioXCodec:
The reason is because they dont really want 'their' Android to be open source. If they are good in services. We should have.drivers by now.
[LG Optimus Black] Sisqo:
It looks like a default no-reply answer.

If indeed they wrote that, it means they didn't read your email.

It's a shame for a nice phone to not be supported anymore, as i've seen, even g1 can have a working jelly bean on it:) so it's not about the ics not working properly on p970 specs, but lg refuses to support the customers..
[LG Optimus Black] sammyz:
LG is cheap, they will slowly start to release ICS on only newer phones so they can make money. If they released drivers or ICS to this phone, they wouldn't make money....they know it's possible, they just refuse to, then they get people to buy new phones that have the next O/S. The entire Optimus line was promised gingerbread. I know the Optimus S got it, but the optimus V (an exact identical phone that uses the same motherboard) did not. Why? Because of money. Virgin Mobile discontinued the phone with new phones that come with GB. So VM and LG get money because of people who only run stock and want to go from froyo to GB. LG makes stuff as cheap as they can, that's why drivers (for PC) are outdated, or firmware is borked. LG does not care about customer support. Now the phone carriers may replace the phone, that's the only customer support you'll get.
[LG Optimus Black] FunkyGanja:
So what did you end up rating their email response (or lack thereof)? :P
[LG Optimus Black] DioXCodec:
In conclusion, the service id bad.
[LG Optimus Black] imam.krismanto:

[LG Optimus Black] il1cit:

Lol, rate an auto response? "Hm, yes I liked they way you didn't read my e-mail."

I'm going to contact LG locally and will see what they have to say.
[LG Optimus Black] dflt:
Usually you should get link in body of email to rate the replay. So click it and rate it badly. Probably some lazy employee didnt even read your message. If you rate it badly he will probably dont get bonus or he will get fired. So win-win for us.
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
People stop crying like this! the original request to lg assistance is totally wrong. You cannot say that lg "doesn't respect their promises" because our optimus black is meant to be upgraded to ics at least at the end of september, so until that moment your complaints against them is nosense.

You could said it if you have an optimus 2x, so, read carefully the news and comunicates before spamming!
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
Ofcourse rated them "very disappointing". But no LG for future.
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
Looks you have not read well LG Canada's statement about upgrade for OB. They said the earlier statement was just a general statement and not promise. And they are not upgrading OB to ICS.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Hi all,

LG Canada said that LG Optimus Black wont get ICS update. That was LG Canada! They have different methods there.

LG didn't say there wont release ICS to OB, so don't speculate that. I see many speculations here...

"LG never will release ICS", "LG wont update to ICS", etc... Are you working in LG to say that? I'm not saying that LG will release ICS, but I didn't see anywhere that LG will NOT release ICS.

Just wait and see... Speculations wont get us anywhere. A petition is different. But like I said, LG never said that they WONT release ICS.
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
That was i was saying...read carefully bro :)
[LG Optimus Black] aletheva:
And also - when OB was released, it was said that it will get OS upgrade to GB. Everyone got GB and that should be it. So, LG has done everything they promised. The first statement about ICS upgrades was released so fast, that they even hadn`t no idea if the mentioned phones are capable of running smooth ICS. So i understand why LG are not releasing ICS upgrade.

And its part of TI fault that LG is taking so long.

P.S.

I`m to an OB user and I`m to not so happy about LG - not about not releasing the ICS upgrade, but I`m mad that there is no info from LG on the progress. Sony has updated almoust all of their Xperia line. LG should learn from them.
[LG Optimus Black] navossoc:
Any other phone model from LG already get the ICS?

[]'s
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
And it is not only about ICS, but its about support and information from a global brand. They should be more supportive and informative toward to their customers. There is key benefit for them being responsible.

If calibrating doesn't work then your battery could be bad. Other than vibrant the i9000 and topic touch 4g batteries work with the vibrant. Try ebay or amazon for cheap batteries.

Also, what rom are you running? I'm asking because if its anything JB, I wouldn't expect much in terms of battery life.

Also, what kind of usage does your phone get on a daily basis? Are you a light or a heavy user?

What kernel are you running? Which i/o scheduler and Governor are you running with?

OC? UV? The more info the better my friend ^^

I got a new red s3 a few days ago and other than not being able to check for ot updates, I really like it. However, I have one big concern that has me wondering if maybe I should swap it out for a One X ($79.88 at wal mart). If Apple ends up winning the court case against Samsung, what will happen as far as future updates/upgrades/support? If Apple wins, apparently th s3 will be banned from future sales. And since they have already taken the local search function away, what other features are we likely to lose just to appease Apple?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] phzi:
Samsung and Apple will battle in court for the foreseeable future. The sgiii isn't going to get barred from being sold, at least not for any significant amount of time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] catchesbass:
I got mine

Apple already put a stop to sales of one of Samsung's tablets. The s3 is next on their list. But I already have one so that part doesn't concern me. What does concern me is support for the s3 if Samsung is banned from selling it. It is hard to imagine them supporting a product that they can't sell. Plus, if the software is also banned (local search), will they even be able to support it if they want to?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexii:
Umm they really don't have anything to go after the SGS3 for. It is not rectangular, it does not have uniform corners, and TouchWiz does not look like iOS, so what could the possible ban it for?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] catchesbass:
I know

I feel the same way. But you know how it is. I couldn't believe that Samsung took away the local search but they did. Apparently, pretty much everything from the icons to the touch screen is copied from Apple. But the s3 with its physical home button is the first Android powered phone to outsell the iPhone. Therefore it must go. Like I said, Apple got the Nexus tablet banned because it was too much like the iPad. I just don't want to be stuck with a phone that is constantly being stripped down bit by bit or completely removed from the market and nit supported at all. It's funny, though. The Apple TV sure looks like a Samsung to me. I wonder if Samsung will sue Apple?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexii:
I mean really, Apple does not have nothing to stop the SGS3. The phone was designed to avoid being stopped by Apple. and even then, if they try to stop it via software, they cant, because all it takes is a software patch. hence the Galaxy Nexus.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] can6rxw:
When it comes down to it, Apple is scared. Android is light years better and they know it. They know that Google made an OS to rival theirs and did it better. So, if you can't beat the competition, then sue (sp.) their butt off! Apple will ALWAYS be a fanboy market...meaning all the die-hard robots that will do/buy whatever Apple tells them too. Meanwhile, Google will keep innovating and making their mobile OS truely the best on the market today.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Nexii:
They are scared of Samsung itself. They know that Samsung copied the iPhone, and lets be honest here, they copied the dam iPhone, but they produced a product a million times better than the iPhone.

Samsung has some great technology, which is why its one of Apple's "Key Partners". I have owned three Samsung devices in the last year and they all were really good. Samsung has what it takes, but it is being limited by Apple. Why do you think the SGS3 is so ugly looking? To avoid Apple and its lawsuits.
