[Milestone 2 General] Ashareth:
Tezet posted in his CM10 thread about what it brings to unlock the bootloader, and from memory it's :

- newer custom kernels

- no need for boostrap anymore, we could use more "regular" recovery (like all other phones)

- easier hardware support

- possibility probably to reformat the phone partitions

- more and easier customization instead of "fiddling" with the phone;

But he said too to not expect that for the MS2, and that he thought that the only chance for something "like" that for the MS2 was probably Kexec (a bootloader hijacker which would allow quite some things).
[Milestone 2 General] Megalith27:
To confirm that and not to burst anyone's bubble

Not gonna happen for older devices i.e. for MS2 as well :(

Hi! All. My phone started acting wierd last week. It randomly shuts down & reboots & gets stuck at the black screen with the name & model no. I tried taking out battery & putting it back but after a few days, the problem returns. Btw my set is rooted on stock rom. Any ideas how to solve?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zykic:
try booting into recovery (vol up+home+power) and factory reset
[Galaxy S III Accessories] husnain.mohammed:
guys. which one would you say is better in not making the screen colour smudge or blur in anyway. Which one is less resistant to scratches
[Galaxy S III Accessories] b0gd4n:
u're joking right?

Zagg is a humongous piece of crap. I got it free when I bought the phone....really...even those 10 screen protectors for £1 are better!

I now have the SGP curved crystal....and IT IS AWESOME!...(as long as you manage to install it properly :D)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] werked:
+1

I have the sgp ultra nano and love it. Wish it didn't get as greasy but it's soooo better than the zagg.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] GuestK00450:
Zagg protectors are worse than the $1.00 screen protectors on eBay that come with like 7 protectors. Absolute garbage screen protectors.

I am using the Ultra Nano Clear and it is one of the best screen protectors I have used for any phone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KillaHurtz:
Try Dynaflo, it is a nano liquid application. There is nothing to apply but a few sprays.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Citizen Snips:
SGP nano is sooo clear compared to the zagg.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Five0nIt:
Ive never used screen protectors, but im using a zag hd with no complaints.

Why you guys hate on zagg? Whats wrong with them?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] b0gd4n:
wouldn't complaint if zagg was the absolut only screen protector available in the universe....but there are sooo much better ones...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Five0nIt:
Ok, but why?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cuhrazy:
They leave orange peel they also make the screen not as smooth and they aren't as clear as other screen protectors.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kd5dmg:
Not so with the Zagg HD. I have it on and it feels just like the screen. They really have improved them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mmmalas:
dont know about texture but from videos i seen the light reflection doesn't look smooth
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Pr1meSuspect:
Sounds nice. Prior experiences with them have sucked. I'm torn between this and the full screen dry application screen protectors.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] avarize:
Girlfriend has a Zagg HD on her HTC One X and it looks world's beyond the old Zagg protectors
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jbluzb:
I recommend SGP Ultra Nano - one of the best screen protectors, very thin and clear though hard to apply; Zagg shield turns yellow after a few months
[Galaxy S III Accessories] wiz4769:
Get the nano, if you have any type of case the tiny edge that is left exposed is a non issue. I will agree that its sorta tough to install really any of these perfect. The nano came with 3 luckily as I jacked up the first one because you cant freakin see the thing on there and it was crooked...but second time was good. So I still have one left over to use once this one gets too banged up.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkey2112:
Hi

First post here, I'm new to Android and rooting but I know my way around computer systems in general so hoping you guys can help me, haven't seen a thread about this exact problem so far.

I've semi-bricked (bootlooped) my Samsung Galaxy Ace running Gingerbread, having rooted it last month using the upd_1 package and enjoying a bloatware-free phone, happily installing apps onto my second partition on my SD card. I've not changed my ROM, just the stock is good enough for me for now. However I was getting continually prompted by Homescreen Selector nags at powering up for some reason and I thought I could disable it by applying Freeze using LInk2SD, but since doing that I continually get the Samsung logo, the orange "explosion" (I'm with Orange) then a vibration and the whole cycle repeats. My guess is the operating system can't find the selector.apk app since I froze it.

I thought the solution would be simple - use adb shell to rename back from selector.fro to selector.apk. However I'm unable to find any such file in my system/app folder. There are a load of other apk and odex files but not that one. When I type su I get "permission denied", though I definitely rooted my phone but I don't think I have my bootloader unlocked.

I don't have CWM installed or any backups unfortunately (yes, I know...), so even if I took one now prior to a factory reset, surely the same problem would come back if I were to restore from any backup I were to take now. I can get into Recovery and Download screens ok but don't want to restore the whole ROM unless I have to, since I know it's only one APK that is at fault.

So, please can anyone tell me how to locate the selector.fro file to turn it back to selector.apk? Or can't I do that without unlocking the bootloader first, or is there another solution?

Many thanks in advance,

Graham
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QNBT:
Wouldnt it be possible to make a zip of the selector.apk and flash it? Rename the zip-file to "update" (since you're unable to browse to your specific file).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkey2112:
Hi, thanks for the response :)

Do you mean copy a zip of selector.apk to the SD card and run it from there, same as I did when I rooted? Where can I obtain a copy of that apk from? I can't find it on my computer or via Google...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QNBT:
You can extract it from the ROM's zip file, just locate it as you would on your phone.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkey2112:
But I don't have a ROM zip file. I'm not using a custom ROM, just stock. I may go down the custom ROM route one day, but for now I just want my phone to work again in the quickest way possible.

All I need is a copy of the original stock home selector APK. Can anyone help here please?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkey2112:
Found the file!

Never mind, got the apk from another thread. Flashing tonight...

Hello everyone on the xdadevelopers,

I've been looking around for custom lockrings for use with Metamorph on the International Galaxy SII (GT-I9100)

I really like the idea of not having a bog standard holo ring so at present I have a large green toad (from Mario) as my lock ring [credit to FaithCry]

However, I'm looking for a change and would love a Gears of War crimson omen lock ring with no outer ring, just the logo as is.

Is there anyone out there who shares the same interest/can provide such a Lockring?

Many thanks guys :)

FaithCry's work is also worth a look into for anyone looking for a new lock ring, mine only worked with Metamorph but are designed for both Metamorph and ZipThemer (especially for Jellybean devices) and work for all xhdpi and hdpi phones :)

so tekken 3 isnt working properly on my xperia play

it craches everytime after the first battle

first i downloded a pre-converted tekken 3 and then i used psxperia and its still the same (i use the .bio file)

so wat do you think is wrong?

(sorry for bad gramar, im from iceland)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omnicrash:
Refer to the psxperia compatibility list; it is a known problem.

It ALWAYS crashes when the replay is playing, you need to press X quickly after a fight to skip it, or use FPSE instead.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
As I have mentioned. I have been playing tekken 3 with zero issues. No stuttering, crashing or any hiccups. Itbjust works

EDIT: I used screencast to make a video of Tekken 3 on my play. Nothing special just payed the first 2 rounds with a character.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-nE6kWTxhU&feature=youtu.be

Just noticed the video is sideways... sorry about that. Going to make another video right now and will post a link here.... hopefully I can get it to be in landscape instead of portait.

EDIT: again,

New video this time in landscape.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QRJP_8vwO4&feature=youtu.be

Also I dont know why my screencast videos always appear to lag, when while I am playing them they are buttery smooth.. is it something in the settings? I only changed the video from portrait to lanscape for this one....

[Galaxy S III Accessories] tft:
sure you can get one on newegg for $17-20 but they aren't class 6+

i ordered this one from best buy online and picked up in store. the site says class 6 but they gave me a class 10. both class 6 and 10 look identical so i got lucky.. for some reason they don't even show class 10 on the site. i can't complain and certainly won't find another card for cheaper (non fleabay) with better performance. 64GB is nice but i will wait for the price to drop.. 32gb is more than enough at the moment for me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jacobdfs:
I also did store pickup from Best Buy just now, and they also handed me a Class 10. :)

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Will of fire:
Store pic up you go with your card and Id? I wonder if I buy in store if I will get a class 6 or ten
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jacobdfs:
Yes just ID and the credit card. After I picked mine up, I checked on the shelves and they didn't even have a rack for the 32GB Class 6. Your chances might increase exponentially if this is the same case at your store!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] tft:
that's nice.. i wonder if it's a typo on their site and it's suppose to be 10.. unless they ran out of 6 (maybe no longer in production?) who knows..

yes. even if you get a class 6 it's still worth it.. 6 is still fast and class 10 is just a tad faster. just note this is a 1 day sale and will end soon.. so jump now or never ;)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Will of fire:
Going right now wish me luck guys. I have a class 10 16gb card and its full.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] theUsualSuspexx:
Not a bad price, or the greatest. I've gone both routes, I picked up a deal of the day type sale at frys on a class 10 32gb samsung for 27 bucks and its been flawless in my galaxy s2, my sk4g I went the budget route and picked up 1 sandisk 32gb class 4 from amazon for 19 and a house brand from newegg 32gb class 6 for 18 bucks as a backup. Athough I haven't had any issues with the cheapos, the class 10 I picked up from frys is the route id prefer to take if I get another. For the extra 5 bucks u don't wait for shipping, get an actual retail packaged product that's guarenteed to be as advertised. Any issues u roll back to the store and get another, u order one online an it has issues, well i returned 2 8gb class 6s I ordered online because they would not format or read on a pc and as of yesterday 3wks since I ordered and I'm still without 2 workings sd cards. Best buys deal is solid and if ur in immediate need, id pick one up and have the peace of mind that u got what u paid for. The 2 32gb I got online both test very inconsistant, I've got as fast as class 6 speeds and also sub class 2 speed. The 1 I picked up at frys tests consistantly over class 10 specs. Well worth the extra 5-7 bucks imo. I'm holdin out for that $50 64gb of the same brand best buy advertises now and then

i noticed 2 days ago my i777 showed h for a sec then 3g and was gone i tryed to google for this and found no info

this morning i wake up power on my cell and sit it on the table next to me while online and notice again its showing 3g h then 3g holding the 3g i browse and it goes from h back to 3g i did a speed test to verify this and i get 4.1mb on 1st try

so is tmobile now rolling out for a new band cause i thought tmobile could not get anything bu e edge for our i777

if any one needs info let me know

however i have noticed that if i pick up the phone is almost always goes back to e edge seems like it must have a full bars of e edge before it snaps over to h then 3g so i really want to know whats going on and if so how to maybe keep the 3g and h cause it really seems sensative when i pick it up and hold it i get almost full e edge and the 3g h goes away

im using aokp

set rom controls to hspda andhuspa or whatever it is

sitting on 3g for about 15 mins now pretty excited ths would have been good a week ago while trying to download google drive and do some mapquesting that got me lost for 40 mins due to slow internet while driving

i was shocked so i took a video and a pic of the phone

i know this may be due just to the area i live in but still this is cool as far as i knew only the galaxy note could have its modem changed software to get on tmobile 3g i thought us i777 users were destined to get e forever i know tmobile was going to get a band back in oct last year and all this junk with att and then somthing about rogers getting it idk whats what i know tmobile is upgrading the whole reason they changed the modem in thier t989 and 3 weeks ago my net cut off totally for the day had major issues and tmobile was no help so i wonder if this is a indicator that before long we all will have 3g ? on i777 if so yet another reason to get my i777

OR DO YOU THINK MAYBE IT IS WHAT IT IS I NEED TO WAIT FOR BETTER SERVICE BEFORE THINKING I CAN MAKE IT BETTER ON MY SIDE MAYBE ITS JUST TMOBILES SIDE AND THEY SOMHOW NEED TO REFINE THIER CATCHING OR WHATEVER YOU WOULD CALL IT
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] niteice:
Usually cell carriers don't light up a new service on every tower in an area simultaneously while they're still rolling it out. That's reserved for the big public unveiling. Eventually the gaps will fill in. It's also possible your local geography is making 1900mhz reception worse than 850/900, but again, it's more likely it's not on every tower around you yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
That's what HSPA is (idles in UMTS, aka 3G).

As stated, coverage is spotty because it's just being rolled out. It will become stronger over time. I suppose you could find a way to lock it to Edge if you want (easily accomplished on AOSP roms).

As for modems, it'll drain less if locked to Edge since your HSPA signal strength isn't good. You'll have to look at the map in the modem thread for suggestions. It's mostly different for everyone.
