OOH,i forgot,I want cm10 soo bad:drool:.but is it worth unlocking the bootloader.I mean,my st15i is only 2 weeks old.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ScatteredHell:
Yeah, its. Ur choice :)

Haha, i unlocked mine after buying 3 day. Yeah, its worth. Flashing custom kernels give u more performance too.

But flashing ics or jb decrease ur performance too bro
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Deleted member 4736004:
Use official method . Tp Is extremely risky . You can always relock bootloader after official unlock.

---------- Post added at 08:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 PM ----------

CM10 is in alpha stagehence many bugs and frequent crashes. Better install cm9 stable . However my advice is to unlock bootloader only of yourre not satisfied with current performance..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Jeik:
I dont experience lags,but i hate that lots of the roms like PA,newer sony firmware,... need a unlocked bl.And i watch over my stuff.i had a lg p350,xperia x8 before,and i didnt even use the warranty once-never broke it
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Deleted member 4736004:
Then pls don't unlock bl. Trust me custom Roms even like cm9 have many bugs .. No xloud/WiFi and others. Better stay with stock.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Jeik:
Too late -.-

I dont regret it.official cm9 is amazing.just for the huge battery drain :rolleyes:

And i can restore drm!!!!

Hey can someone help me with this? My nexus is rooted and on stock 2.3.6. I tried downloading the cm7 r2 hboot for the runnymede sense rom but for some reason in recovery it will not flash that hboot. Im using clockworkmod recovery. What step am i missing to flash this hboot file so i can flash this rom? I downloaded the hboot file off of alpharev site. I even renamed the file PB99IMG.zip and also update.zip and both did not work in hboot mode and recovery. Any help would be great.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] footwork*:
Have you installed Blackrose? You have to install Blackrose before you can flash an hboot.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhester1967:
How do I flash black rose? I'm actually new to the nexus one. I've had a few android phones but not this one. I actually got the sense rom to flash but it got stuck on the X screen with the unlock icon and it won't go past it? Is that because I don't have black rose? I believe I have the stock hboot.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1newbie:
are you trying this runny rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1580873

if so, then you dont need blackrose. stock hboot is fine. but ext partition of 1GB is compulsory. before flashing the rom, did you flash alignment_cool provided in the first post ? better use 4ext recovery :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhester1967:
I did flash the alignment cool zip file first and then the rom. I used amon ra recovery and clockwork mod. Both left me stuck. When I flashed the rom it took me to aroma installer and I tried stock hboot and used the regular method and custom method and neither worked. What am doing wrong? And about how long should I be stuck at the boot

Screen before it loads into the sense rom?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] footwork*:
But did you partition to one GB or more? If I remember correctly alignment_cool is to change the partition from ext3 to ext4 (required). Sense ROMs take up a lot of room. The partition is for system and everything else (apps 'n stuff). :p

Or you could use EXT4 Recovery Touch,save yourself some trouble, partition your SD card to ext4 via the tools (highly recommended) and flash your ROM there.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1newbie:
+1 use 4ext recovery to format ur sd n create 1gb ext4 partition and then wipe all partittions except sd in recovery and then flash the rom :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Go to my guide and follow section 6....also try reading a couple threads before posting. This the whole reason why verizon locked the darn bootloader in the first place. Research then flash, dont flash then research!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] voodoomanx:
Edited for incorrect advice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
This is incorrect...you must flash the stock kernel before flashing a stock rom in odin. Op go to my guide and follow section 6.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jtiger12:
I suggest doing a factory reset in recovery, immediately after you flash root66. My phone would not finish booting after ODIN'ing root66 coming from BeansRom 9. It was sticking at the Verizon 4g boot image for 20 minutes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] voodoomanx:
Depends on what rom he flashed. That's why I asked. If he flashed a stock rom with stock kernel flashing root 66 in odin would work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Read the op...she is getting the verizon triangle of death...that means one thing, either she flashed a custom recovery via odin or flashed a custom rom that was packaged with a custom kernel on a locked bootloader. The advice you gave is incorrect for this situation. Im not here to argue, im here to help pass along correct information to keep bricks at a minimum. Sometimes i may come off a bit brash, but im just trying to get the point across. Seems silly to take a 600.00 device and turn it into a paper weight all because lack of research don it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] voodoomanx:
All I did was ask what rom they attempted to flash. I don't care either way. Your guides have gotten me out of a couple jams. I wish people would read them first.

I'm also getting sick of all the warranty fraud going on.

Now that I reread the OP you are correct. I will edit my reply so as not mislead anyone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
We all misread a post from time to time no biggie. You corrected me on a post in the ez unlock thread. The end result is to make sure the right information is getting passed around. :highfive:

Hi all,

im new with HTC Sensation and i installed 2 ROMs (sense 4: Venom & Ordroid) after making my phone s-off superCID and rooted with hboot 1.27.0000 and i dont know what is my frameworke version !

here is my problem:

i can't find clock widget, the time application (where we can set the alarm,...) also when i click on the task manager (from the quick settings, because i can find it on the app drawer) i got a Toast with "cant find null"

im sure there is a lot of apps that are missing,i tried reinstalling the Rom many times but,allways the same result!!!

i can remeber exactly, but i think that i got a problem with time region, when i installed the Rom i did not found my region,which is Tunisia

(sorry for my english)

Sorry, realized this is probably the wrong forum but it wont let me delete

HI all, i recently purchased a ATT Note and love it. I have come back to droid after being on the iphone for a while. I fell in love with the screen. I almost sided with the Galaxy SIII due to the performance being so much better but the display model Note was not running ICS. So i got the note, brought it home and got it updated. Its a great phone, i love it. Especially for me being able to remote into my work computer and assist end users in troubleshooting. I am getting close to returning it though and getting the GSIII due to it being just so much faster. Is there a current ROM available that improves performance? There just seems to be so much lag when opening things up and when typing. The GSIII also has a nice screen but is noticeably smaller to me and that was a drawback but the performance is really better to me and things open instantly. Thanks for any input! I apologize for any repost i did a search and did not really see anything, Thanks for any help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] celkin:
Get it rooted if you have not already and get away from stock ICS, its poop. Literally. You will notice a drastic difference with any lag with many of the Dev's roms here. PA is my personal preference but any Cyanogen build or... Man just read some stuff and decide for your self. Bottom line, drop ICS.

And yes it is the wrong forum.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thair7391:
I'm ready to use Jelly Bean primarily as much as the next person but to be honest, its just not quite ready if you consider the performance. The graphics kinks haven't all been ironed out yet so if you're wanting to really see the full potential of your Note, I would recommend using either the official Cyanogenmod ROM (or the latest nightly) or h0twir3's current remake of it. They have the fastest, most responsive feel to me compared to all of the other ROM's available right now, plus they're clean and basic which is always my preference. Jelly Bean is getting better every day though so give it a whirl if you like. I'm expecting it to be exponentially improved by the end of the month.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Vicious Von:
Its to argue against the sg3. It has 2gb of ram and thats pretty much the difference. Its always gonna seem a bit zippy in comparison. I like my note for screen size, s-pen, quality software and dev support. No other phone has those requirements at the moment. And obviously it can stand up wit the other top tier phone around. It becomes a matter of preference and necessity so its totally up to you.

Nothing is banned or decided yet, they did say they stole some features, and need to pay 1bill...but Apple lost in Korea on the Sammy suit so you can bet it will be appealed and this will string out for ages either way. So nothing will be changed or banned for a while, so enjoy and dont sweat it

- the bottom dock now goes away when in the app drawer, while apple's patent states it should be there always.

Just a simple review of the skinplayer aluminize aluminium frame for the SGS3.

Its made in korea and available in 11 colours, the frame comes standard with a aluminium home button, 1 mirror screen protector, 1 gloss clear screen protector, vinyl button for the menu and return button, skin for the battery lid and other accessories to help apply the frame and protector.

The cut out for the frame is very precise and fits right to the edge of the phone the silver version has the aluminium finish, but is covered with a coated to have a smooth finish, the frame has adhesive to stick to the screen of the phone and can be removed easily.

As in the photo's you can see with the frame on I can still use the tridea bumper, mercury jelly TPU case and the aeonaz S-contact case.

the screen protector is applied after the frame, and you can choose from clear or mirror finish.

The home button is also precisely cut, but the two other button is a let down, they used vinyl instead which doesn't look good, instead I used the mirror screen protector and did some cutout which looks better, you can see them on the photo's with the green tridea bumper.

I've got a white S3 and I think it's beautiful. However, I went into hospital a few days after having it, and left it in the hands of my brother who used it regularly. When I came home, I found a scratch going from the bottom about 1 and a half inches up the screen. I was furious, but it couldn't have been from regular use, surely? I just assumed a cat had got hold of it, but a little strange that it would be the one scratch...

Anyway, I've been using it for a while and I'm starting to notice more scratches on it... I'm just wondering how everyone else's finding their screens to be.

I mean, I should get a screen protector, but I feel it's too late since it's it won't get rid of the existing scratches. Do you think I could get the screen replaced as it's under warranty? I've never had this problem before with a phone because I've always had a screen protector, just didn't think I would need one with the S3's gorilla glass 2... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] gavin-phelan:
Always used a screen protector. sometime they even help hide scratch s on the screen
[Galaxy S III General] delsus:
A screen protector can hide some scratches, but you will not be able to claim on warranty because its classed as accidental damage. I would try a cheap screen protector to see if it hides the scratches before contacting Samsung.
[Galaxy S III General] jcsawyer:
Ah okay. So a warranty only covers faults with THEIR hardware and not due to something that I've done, say I were to brick it some how, no warranty cover?

But I shall have to try a cheap screen protector and see what it does. Just a shame that these scratches seem to build up on it. I thought it would hold up better. I mean, my brother owns a Lumia 800 which has no scratches at all, although I suppose the screen is quite a bit smaller so not as vulnerable.
[Galaxy S III General] Conflict94:
my local samsung service centres replaces screen cracks/scratches the first time for free. maybe you can try to ask them? no harm in trying :)
[Galaxy S III General] jcsawyer:
No harm in trying, that's for sure!

But best make sure I have a screen protector ready anyway! :laugh:

Thanks for your input!
[Galaxy S III General] Geordie Lad:
I doubt you'll get it fixed under warranty but if you serious about fixing the scratches you could pay to get the scratches ground out and will be a Hell of a lot cheaper than buying a new screen at at least $250.
[Galaxy S III General] zardoz99:
That will not work... If you remove any of the screen surface, you remove the layer with the potassium ion substitution in it. All you will do is expose the softer (much) vanilla aluminosilicate under the hardened outer layer.

Z.
[Galaxy S III General] Geordie Lad:
I think the words you looking for is the Oleophobic coating.

And yes I did consider that but he is talking about using a screen protector after it's done so grinding the surface to the actual Gorilla Glass won't be an issue, and I've heard of plenty people doing this using simple grinding and polishing tips on a multitool and grinding paste but it's probably best to get someone who knows what they doing to do it right.
