i am noob . so iam afraid to try new things . i use sky ics 2.7 now . after some people said the cm 9 stable come out . i want give a try but it is really need a lot time for me . anyone try both cm9 stable and skyics 2.7 already ? if yes which one is better ? i only care battery life and call quality . is cm9 also have the echo problem ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
Ask 100 people that question and you'll get 100 different answers as to why one or the other is better. Doesn't take too long to install a new ROM, and trying them both out is the only way to determine which is best for you.

Failing that, the search button will yield tons of answers, and you probably should have used it first in this case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
I've used earlier versions of CM (on the OG Droid) and I liked it quite a bit. The major difference is that SkyICS (which I am currently using as well) is built on the TouchWiz (Samsung) sources, while CMx is built on the AOSP (Android Open Source Project) sources. CM is more "pure" Android with some tweaks done by their very good team. Both have benefits.

I haven't personally tried CM9 (waiting on AOKP JB or CM10 semi-stable).

Really it's up to you. It won't take any more time to install CM9 than it took to install SkyICS, if that is a concern. I haven't read anything about echoing on CM9 stable, but read up either on the cyanogenmod forums or here in our dev section.

Has anybody played tap tap revenge smoothly in SGY without any problems?

I've been having a hard time tapping two tappers at the same time. Sometimes it reads it, sometimes it doesnt tap, sometimes it taps only one of them. Does anyone have the same problem?

If you got TTR to run smooth on your SGY please tell me how :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps] thirdzcee:
I play it and yes i also have that issue as well as dozens of others running it in sgy, i think its due to the screen size which is too small since it wasnt made for 320x240 resolution, you can tap both left and right at the same time but you cant tap the middle with either ledt/right at the same time, you have to do it one by one really fast if you want to keep your combo going,

Heres screenshot of my taptap :D

Hey guys I'll be traveling to the Denver area for vacation. I live in the Houston area and get great reception. I was wondering what the best radio is for the Denver, Colorado area. Does Denver have LTE? Thanks guys
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] irvgotti:
Denver does not have LTE yet but the hspa+ was plenty fast enough
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] co.ag.2005:
no LTE and I've been getting good results on the 2.20 radio (0.19as.32.09.11_2_10.105.32.25L)

are you going to be just in Denver or traveling around? Some spots get better HSPA+ speeds than other but for the most part, no matter where you travel in the Denver metro you'll have good coverage and good speeds.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Yup, 2.20's radio works best for me. Although I still get bad signal in various areas that's like some black hole for cell signals. I'm thinking that's on ATT, not the phone/radio
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ry89:
I'll mostly be in Denver but also I will travel to Colorado Springs. I'll have to swap in the 2. 20 radios

I just tried out "TuneIn" radio app and for the first time my NT started boot looping on 10-15 min. intervals. Has anyone experienced this problem with certain apps? I'm running Pandora right now to see if it occurs again.

No others changes to NT - running CM7 for some time without issues until today.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] old_fart:
Your description points to the "TuneIn" app as being faulty ( non-standard ). Just my thought... Contact the maker ( programmer ) of the app for an assist. Most are very nice and always looking for a challenge.

What cm7 are you running ? There is the forum's CelticWebSolutions's beta and off-site - Succulent's beta...

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mickeyzkun:
Im planning to buy Xperia Ray after i hard bricked(totally dead) my galaxy mini plus but i have couple questions to ask first before buying.

1. Is it ok to upgrade to official ICS even with some issues? or should i stick to GB?

2.What are the issues after the ICS is isntalled?

2. What is the latest GB? because in my galaxy mini plus its 2.3.6

3. Is it easy to root? because my classmate said the higher your phone is the harder to root

4. If i want to to install custom rom what is the best rom?

all my questions are for Xperia Ray. ill wait for some replies beforing doing something after i bought Xperia Ray.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] KhemaraS.:
1.Gb is more stable than ics,and gaming etc is better on gb

2.the latest gingebread version for our phones is 2.3.4

3.Rooting shouldnt be a problem,there are a lot of tools in development section

4.If you want ics custom rom try real ics r5.2 it was the best for me, when you want gingerbread try my rom (signaature)hasa rom by sandy07,or nerodroid

Note:To install custom roms you will have to unlock your bootloader and flash kernel manually (This will void garanty,i think in samsung the kernel flashes automaticly in CWM) But there are also custom roms that can be installed on locked bootloader my rom,hasa gb,real ics etc

Hope i helped you :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mickeyzkun:
ohh so i can't install custom rom yet if my phone is still under warranty not like in samsung they said it will only void the warranty once you open your phone aka hardware.

is the real ics r5.2 is stable and its like an official ICS?

mind telling me what are the issues of ICS on xperia ray.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] KhemaraS.:
You can install a custom Rom,just unlock bootloader wich will void guarantee but you can also relock it :D and you can use Roms that work on locked bootloader,Real Ics is a very great Rom,its stable and much faster than stock Rom,

Only issues i think are the LED when you receive sms or missed a Call they dont work
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mickeyzkun:
i think im just going to root it and nothing more because i don't want to waste another money .
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] knightazura:
I'll try to answer it, hope can help you :D

1. GB is more stable, more efficient on battery, good for gaming.. but it's ok too if you want to upgrade it to ICS, actually it's stable and good though GB is a bit better.. if you want more rocks on ICS then do some tweaks or use Custom kernel and ROM ;)

Issues just lag on your phone but it just a little bit and if you try to use phone like a monster device(?) :D

2. Latest GB from Google is 2.3.7, but on Ray (Official Sony) 2.3.4

3. No ;) .. there too many ways and awsome people will break up the shadow!

4. The Best ROM.. everyone have different experience for use their phone and CusROM also offer different advantages, so it's all back to you again..

Tips from me :D , if u want use CusROM for daily use then choose ROM wif minimal bugs or NO BUG..

That's from me, thanks

why dont u go for xperia p Or U they are new phones with new ics update...??? xperia ray is not so good.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mickeyzkun:
i see GB is way better than ICS. i searched on the net about ics issue on ray and this is what i've found from aug 7-9 >http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/261582#261582 http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/262223#262223 http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/262337#262337 http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/263034#263034 im afraid to tweak even i want but i dont want to waste another money.

if i upgrade to latest ICS can i still get back to latest GB?

no? you mean its not easy to root?

thanks for suggesting on what custom rom to use.

xperia P and U doesn't have card slot even they're better than ray and i dont want to buy too expensive phone and im only a student dont have a job yet. im ok with ray

@all

what is the difference between st18i and st18a except that a is from US.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] KhemaraS.:
Root is easy there are lots of Tools here,you can easy Flash back from Ics to gb :) and there is no difference between this phones st18 is the commercial Name and St18i/st18a are only model numbers no difference
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gmp009:
hmm strange in my country xperia ray price is higher then xperia p and u
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] crytec4:
Xperia ray

as of my experience:

1. Yes ics is really brilliant but and has a smoother web broeser than gb. however its main issues are you just cant play some games on it as well as its a real pain for hd graphical games to play , might cause serious lags fcs in games. for such reasons i rolled back to gb.

2.ics can handle certain things faster than gb but as we know Xperia 2011 series are now classified as low range phones.because they've got single core 1 ghz with 210/512 mb ram which is only meant for gb only.

rooting is not a big issue once you've rooted ur phone the rest is like a butter. latest official rom is 2.3.4

3 for thhe custom rom 2.3.7 is best.

4. you'd better buy Galaxy Ace2( Dual core processor .and 750 mb of ram space its a good device for ics and gaming (which sported by mali gpu 400.:good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mickeyzkun:
yah i know its easy but i dont wan to make mistake again like what i did on my galaxy mini plus that lead to hard-bricked.

btw where can i download official ICS? because i read on the net that clean install of ICS is recommended the problem on ICS is lesser than upgrading to ICS.

btw how do i clean install official ics? just preparing all i need to do when i bought the phone.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] KhemaraS.:
DO IT LIKE THIS:Download flashtool (dev section) and a ftf File from official Ics Update(dev section) 2. Install drivers for flashtool you will find them in flashtool folder=>drivers (you only need fastboot and flashmode drivers 3.shut down your phone and wait 5 sec 4.Connect your phone to pc via USB while youre Holding the volume down Button 5.the LED should be green now you are connected in flashmode 6.Start flashtool drag/drop the ftf File and Start flashing wait till it ends and youre done :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mickeyzkun:
thanks for suggesting me better phone but i can't aford it and i already decided that ill choose xperia ray and someone said that it can play every single hd games and its cheap. if im going to buy too expensive phone just for gaming,i rather buy ps vita and be contented on my super low end phone.

so thats how to clean install official ICS. thanks ill copy paste that instruction in notepad.

ill do those instruction when i have the phone.
[Captivate General] MakuseruSukotto:
So I finally got my Captivate rooted and started flashing roms to it.

I've tried CM10 and CM9 and neither had radio. (I'm running Helly Bean right now, and still no radio)

I've tried flashing modems to it and still nothing. I tired most of the ones on the modem dance site (cant link to it yet)

So some info about the phone.

Android Version 4.1.1

Baseband Version: Unknown

Kernel VersionL Devil 3.1.1.7 Cappy

CyanogenMod Version: Helly Bean Cappy

So how can I get cell radio working again?
[Captivate General] jmtheiss:
In the settings menu, does it show your IMEI? (Do not post it if it does, just look for it.) If it shows "unknown", your /efs folder is goofed up and you'll have to try to fix it.
[Captivate General] daskanda:
You are flashing ics modems right?
[Captivate General] m1batt1:
When you say you tried flashing several modems did they flash correctly or did you get an error when you attempted?
[Captivate General] MakuseruSukotto:
It doesn't show anything.

I read about copying the /efs folder from the backup, so i tried doing that (which was a chore, since I couldn't figure out how to mount "/" to get to where /efs needed to be, ended up doing it from the filemanager in the recovery. But that didn't do anything.

Yes.

No error, the recovery always said the install was successful.
[Captivate General] jmtheiss:
There's a thread about restoring your EFS folder from the phone in the development section. Give that a try. If that doesn't work, there's also a program on XDA called "EFS Pro" that might help you out.

I've also found that flashing Mosaic 9 after flashing back to stock will fix it for me (don't know why, though...).
[Captivate General] MakuseruSukotto:
Thanks, I'll make sure to give that a try.
[Captivate General] RootTheMachine:
Don't touch efs without going to stock first. When a modem isn't flashed during the initial repartition install, this sort of stuff happens. It should be normal on stock.

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:

When you oc, you ARE sacrificing stability for more speed...then why complain when the phone behaves as expected...? :confused:

flash a rom without wiping data,delete Build.prop or delete random system script or file using root explorer..

or flash a firmware via odin and disconect cable in the middle of progress.

if u do that,your phone will be totally bricked,i'm sure.
