Can i flash a newer radio? - sure yes. Read my signature.

Do i need to S-OFF the phone? - Read my signature.

Will my ROM settings be lost? - Nope.

Clean something with alcohol your sim card and the electrical contacts.

Each phone is made manually and the antenna will be just slightly shifted. This is enough to get some different results.

Just like every other "which kernel?" or "which ROM?" thread, the correct answer is whichever works for you. Some people will always answer these with "stock". Others will always answer with whichever one they're using. Try a few, give them a few battery cycles, and see which works best for you.

I can only answer for the two I have used extensively, franco & lean. There isn't a huge difference battery wise between the two imo, but lean gets me slightly better battery life.

The truth is buy a few extra chargers and a ZaggSparq cause the VZW/LTE Nexus battery sucks. I get maybe 2 hours screen on time WITH the OEM ext battery.

Jame Bond kernel has provided me with excellent battery life, I strongly recommend it.

I have a ground breaking idea. Try different ones and see which one is best for you. I personally use Trinity but have had many people tell me "that one sucks. terrible battery life" but I still use it because it works FOR ME.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
Well I'm not a expert on flashing since I'm not flashaholic either, but from my experience, all the kernels that I've tried has similar battery with a little bit of tweak, such as undervolting and underclocking. I personally think that you won't need custom kernel unless you wanna overclock or do crazy stuff that stock kernel won't let you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
Then stay stock? Don't fix it if it ain't broke.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheBiles:
It is broken, though. Battery life is god-awful, so I was looking for a nice kernel.

For the thousandth time there is only what's best for you. No one uses their phone the same way as you nor has the same signal strength. So no one can answer that question for YOU. They can answer for themselves and that was done by trying different ROMs which you must do.

Hello guys!

I have a Desire Z S-OFF rooted with stock rom 2.3. something... Today i received a norification that a update is avaible for my phone. I downloaded the file and I selected "Update now" (or something like that) ... it rebooted and went to fastboot (i think) [It shows a grey rectangle with an exclamaton mark and an android near the rectangle]. So it's stuck there... I'm not sure how long it takes to update (it's over 15 min i think since it started)... si what do u think should I do?

I hope you can give ne an advice.

Ty!

PS: and sry for my bad english.

LE: nvm i figured it out...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Your first mistake was installing an OTA update on a rooted/unlocked phone. You'll most likely have to re-do the whole process over again if you're able to get into the boot loader to unlock and re-root your phone.

hey im new in the this section cuz this is my moms phone and she needs an upgrade

i didn't find some answers to my questions so i will ask them here :)

1.Cm 7.2 is bugless?

2.what is the best ClockworkMod based recovery for this phone?

3.what Rom could you suggest me ?(battery life is the most important thing)
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatnextdoorboy:
Don't mess with your moms phone.

Stock rom is the best option for people who only use it as a phone (calls/texts/light internet surfing) so unless she wants to change a new theme everyday, game all day long in [insertdemandinggame] or need 70 apps at one time, you don't need any other OS on it other that stock
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsingh1993:
here are your answers

1) yes stable release of cm7.2 is bugless , nightly version may or may not have bugs.

2) best version of clockwork mod is 5.0.2.7, i recommend amonra

3)for battery life cm7 is good or you can check oxyen gingerbread(by popdog)

hope i helped
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neko95:
> cm7.2 is not bug free. only contains minor bug for an aftermarket os this a good choice or shift from stock IMO.

> cwm 5.0.2.0 and AmonRA 3.0.6

> cm7.2 and install a custom kernel like DJnoXD candied kernel or TA's thunderVN kernels, and again IMO and experience.

I recommend you use the Stock Rom which you are using right now!!

Root it.. uninstall all system aaps which your mom doesnt use!!

Save battery by lowering screen brightness.

Keep WIFI / 3g / 2g / GPS.. OFF.. till you need them.

CM7.2 is not bugless. although it has minimal bugs, it isn't completly clear of bugs

i use amonra. in my opinion its the best

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1gnition:
I used Odin 1.85 to revert to stock ROM. My phone is i9100XXLPX so I downloaded the right ROM for it from androidfirmwares.net. There were two 4.0.3 ROMs for XXLPX, and I tried flashing them both. Both got stuck on Samsung logo.

This phone is barely new and a gift :( I am very upset, and your help will mean the WORLD to me. I am willing to co-operate the best I can. But please, I need anyone's help! You will be given all the 'thanks' you'd like.

THANKS a lot in advance!

During the Odin Flash you got the green signal from Odin?

Also before flashing did you wipe to factory settings?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1gnition:
THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED.

How I fixed it:

In recovery, I wiped data (after flashing the ROM) and it booted normally.

Thank you!

I am sorry for the hassle.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julandroid:
Sadly, I'm having the same issue.

I'm coming from CyanogenMod 10.1 and wanted to test the latest stock firmware from Samsung.

My PC is running under Linux and the way I flash the firmware is:

sudo heimdall flash --primary-boot boot.bin --cache cache.img --factoryfs factoryfs.img --hidden hidden.img --modem modem.bin --param param.lfs --secondary-boot Sbl.bin --kernel zImage

The image files are extracted from the I9100XWLS8_I9100XXLS8_I9100FOPLS3_HOME.tar.md5

Unfortunately after the flash and reboot the booting is stuck at SAMSUNG logo and no wiping or re-flashing helps. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Try windoze.

Here's the leak, it could get you to your feet before flashing LS8.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julandroid:
At the end I gave up, after the failure to install even the older ICS 4.0.4 official firmware, so no love for me from the Samsung.

Happily, at least I was able to reinstall CM10.1 without issues. The thing that impressed me, after reinstalling the CM10.1, was that my internal card was almost the same as is before the fiasco. I.e. the old folders with the images (from the camera) and the uploaded music was intact!

It seems I have to format the internal sd card before I start flashing the Samsung's firmware.

Restock is impossible if you updated to android 10 due to antirollback. If you cannot go into download mode or download mode just keeps fails when flashing, your emmc is dead.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] havis23:
Happened to me today..

Flashed my Galaxy A51 to the latest firmware using ODIN after I tried a custom ROM on this phone, and it stuck on Logo even after getting pass in ODIN.

The solution is to go back to recovery (stock recovery, not TWRP, no need reflashing firmware etc), wipe cache, data and format.. then reboot.

It may not be possible but I cannot question that. Anyway like said above, I'm in for trying new things too.

Bump means or basically is letting people get aware of this topic by bumping it to the front/top. Its fine to do once every couple hours or so many over day by one person. Although if others help bump it makes it equally easier.

I will love to try Samsung keyboard if possible :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Threads are displayed in the forum by most recent. So whenever someone replies the thread goes back to the top of the thread list. So a "bump" back to the top.

I love keyboards and thus I support this. Samsung really integrates their stuff together like Sense... so I don't think its as easy as ripping the apk. Typically with past HTC IME keyboards had to be flashed through recovery to include all the proper files and placement.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
I don't know much about these stuff, but can't somebody with galaxy s3 can just take out the apk of the keyboard?

I've been looking everywhere for an S3 keyboard port. Was hoping it was in the S3 Touchwiz addon pack, but see barely any mention of it.

I love the "handwrite" feature built in .. whether I'd use it or not ;)

Madphone, the maker of the S3 addon port would probably be the best candidate to ask about this-- if he reads this or if anyone wants to hit him up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trickshot1126:
There was actually a huge improvement from the SII & SIII keyboards.

I am an avid swype user but Samsung has integrated a swype like function into the keyboard. Also the handwrite feature is something I'd like to have.

Thanks for the input everyone. Hopefully we can keep this near the top and get this going!

I dont think the tw framework has been successfully ported over yet, and the devs r facing considerabl issues, last time i checkd.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] awandroid89:
to use samsung we need to port touchwiz framework into our gnex and we have it on our gnex already if we flash the s3 mod.so now we need someone to port the keyboard and it is possible if we got a dev intrested with this...

p/s: i got flashable file samsung keyboard for galaxyS aosp rom. I will try this on gnex to see if it working. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] withbloodskies:
No and no. Its not all the framework we need otherwise we'd have a touchwiz ROM. No dev wants to put the dedication into porting this ROM because they say its not worth it and most devs don't know how to anyway. Basically a dev who came from the previously desired sense or touchwiz ROMs will probably have the dedication to port it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] awandroid89:
hi...

Im not mention the whole ui framework but the keyboard need twframework-res.apk and twframework file. It will not effect the current ui at all. The flashable samsung keyboard for GalaxyS AOSP based rom has both file...So thats why we cant find samsung keyboard on Android Development and Hacking > Android Apps and Games like Sony,LG and HTC..correct me if im wrong :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] withbloodskies:
Well did the flash able work? And is it sgs3? From my understanding as a person who came from sense, the framework needed is in the ROM itself which is why sense and touchwiz KB are not ported. I'd rather be using a sense keyboard myself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] awandroid89:
No..it is SGS2 keyboard i think. I really need to use my phone right now so i will find my time. Dev from S3 mod smalldockie also implement samsung keyboard for SGS but he dont put the keyboard on Gnex. Maybe it cannot work on Gnex but i still gonna try it... :D

As for the framework based on my understanding the Twframework dont have any connection with the UI. maybe sense also...Some of Touchwiz application need the the Twframework to run...Even Touchwiz launcher also need twframework to make it run...if you using any mod made by smalldockie you can check your system>framework and you can see Twframework there :fingers-crossed:

correction: S3 mod by madphone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] withbloodskies:
I know what your saying, its not part of the ui, its part of the ROM itself. At least for sense it is.. I'm assuming the same with this KB but who knows? I've seen a lot of sgs3 stuff semi ported. No I'm using a different sgs3 pack, by someone else.

I'm just saying its deep within the framework that's its probably part of the ROM itself.

For some reason, ever since the update the samsung keyboard has been pretty broken. When you mistype something it will just ask you if you want to add it to your dictionary. The keyboard to me is really good. Just wish they would fix it. Saw someone do a review on the galaxy note 2 and they said the keyboard on that phone didn't correct anything either. Don't know what samsung did to their keyboard with their last update. Anyone have the most current software on stock and can test out the keyboard by spelling something wrong?

Until 2-3 days ago, both my Google account sync on my phone and WiFi connectivity worked. However, both of these have now failed. I am not sure they are linked, but I assume they are considering the problems surfaced at a similar time.

1) Gmail doesn't work - the app opens, but does not download or send emails. No error message appears, it just does nothing. I press refresh to no avail. Going onto the Play Store and again encountering account sync failure made me realise it was an account wide and phone problem and not just Gmail.

2) Whilst my data connection works (and therefore the above account sync problem is not one of connectivity), the WiFi connection that worked up until 2 days ago does not work anymore. It is a hotel network, but rather than redirect me to a login page it sends me to a single page (not the login page) and does not allow any other sites. The problem is most probably down to my phone as the WiFi network and login works fine on my PC and for everyone else in the hotel.

Any ideas as to how to resolve this?

Thanks

Today when I was upgrading my Defy to the Android 2.2 using the RSD Lite, I forgot to put him in the Recovery Mode and I did the upgrade anyway.

Now, my cell don't turn on in any way! I use the "Vol Up + Power / Vol Down + Power" and nothing happens. The RSD Lite show me the device but I can't do anything. I tried to flash other ROMs but nothing happens.

Can anyone help me?

Check your battery. Maybe it's discharged.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shrewdy:
Thats weird !!

Hi,

If you can get your phone detected by RSD lite then try flashing a proper rom....and it should start...also make sure you have enough battery on your defy...

And what rom are you trying to flash....also after flashing the new rom you must again go to the Stock Recovery (Power + Vol Down and then when you see the android icon press both volume buttons at once) and clear the cache and dalvik cache...

Also if you run out of batter...there is a post in xda somewhere to create a cable to charge up your battery directly outside...

Its really hard to brick your defy....and it will start again...do let me know if it worked for you...

Thanks

Ok, so I got this phone on release day from BB. Had it for about two weeks and got a small crack in the screen. Took it bad to BB to use the insurance, and they said it should only take like three or four days to send it out and fix it. Needless to say, it didn't. I went round and round with them for three weeks, calling a couple times a week to get the repair status, and they could never tell me anything more than that it was still at the service center waiting on approval. Four days before the 30 day mark, I called the 888-best buy number and complained about it taking so long to fix a cracked screen , they called my local store and talked then in to just replacing it that day (four days early from 30 days). Cool right?

Well, that was almost three weeks ago. Today, my wife gets a call from our local BB (the account is in her name), and send me this email earlier:

"They just called and said your phone cannot be fixed so they want to replace it with a new one!! LMAO.

I said I’m pretty sure he received his new phone already and they said we show that there was no credit given to this account. I said okay well I will

contact my husband and have him call you. They show no record of you getting a new phone or crediting you!!! UNBELIEVABLE."

Should I give it a shot? Then she could have this one without having to use her upgrade! Lol
