Bump I'd still like to hear some suggestions, preferably for speakers under 100 dollars and I only need 2 speakers since I wouldn't be able to spread out surround sound speakers properly in the room I have my computer in.
[Off-topic] TheSkinnyDrummer:
Under your budget are the m-audio av30 speakers.

At $149, I'd definitely recommend the av40.

Hi, i think i have a problem with the wrong kernel installed.

I have a SXSwith ICS and since a couple of days i tried to unlock the bootloader, put Doomlords CWM on it an root it, because i like to try another ROM.

I Unrooted it via the official way wich worked out good, the only thing strange was that i restarted and it seemed the whole phone was resetted.

Than i wanted to root and i had to put the phone in recovery mode, and i choose the doomlord CWM and flashed it using this guide

.

Xperia S

1.Download the Doomlord CWM Recovery image (download link here) and the Wi Fi Module for Doom Kernel (download link here) and place the same to the computer.

2.Go and rename the “S-DooMKernel-v01_kernel.elf” file into “kernel.elf”.

3.Copy the file renamed on the same folder with ADB / fastboot.

4.Take your phone and its USB cord and by using both connect it with the computer.

5.Copy-paste the “S-DooMKernel-v01-Modules.zip” file from the PC to the Xperia S SD card.

6.Disconnect the smartphone from the computer.

7.Reboot it by entering in fastboot; press the Volume Up button while connecting the phone with the PC.

8.On the computer open command prompt (Start -> run -> cmd) and enter the command: fastboot flash boot kernel.elf. If this isn’t working try with: fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot kernel.elf.

9.The handset should reboot.

10.When you see the light turn blue hold the Voluem Up button. The Xperia S will enter in recovery mode.

11.In the recovery menu select “install zip from sd card” and pick the file copied there on step 3.

12.The installation procedure should begin. Don’t press anything as the process might take up to 10 minutes to complete.

13.In the end, from the recovery mode menu select “reboot system now” and you are done.

There you have it; that was the easiest and fastest way in which you can learn how to install Doomlord’s ClockworkMod Recovery on your Xperia S smartphone. Do tell us if there were problems on your way, of if you had issues in understanding one of my directions. Now you can go and update your Xperia S with the lasts ROMs available. Take a look and see if the

Everything seemed to be working but the phone is stuck in Doomlords bootloops.

If i hold the volume up than i can enter CWM but the phone doesn,t start anymore.

The phone was running on a stock ICS ROM (i believe the Swiss one)

I flashed this kernel, 2.6.35.11/Doomkernel.nr1 and SDoomkernel v01 Modules.zip

Who can help me out since i,m stuck here.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mharckk:
doomlord kernel is for GB since youre on ICS try KA Kernel, XSX Kernel, and the Advanced stock ICS. look in the development section. you can flash it in CWM since youve flash doomlord kernel or try to flash via fastboot.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] koossmatrooz:
Thanks for your quick response, how can i put the kernel on the internal sd?

the phone doesn't start, so it wont be recognised by windows, i tried to mount in CWM but windows doesn't see it.

If i flash in fastboot mode, do i have to change the name again and wich name if i take the KA kernel for example.

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] YousifNael:
Just downlaod the advanced stock kernel (the fastboot link) and flash it in fastboot

It will boot :good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mharckk:
just download any of the 3 but u need the .elf file and then flash via fastboot you dont need to change the name just used the name youve downloaded to flash.

for example : ics14.elf

used fastboot or adb

fastboot flash boot ics14.elf

you can also used the flashtool, flash via fastmode then choose the ics firmware you have then flash only the kernel. uncheck everything except the kernel.

but the easy way to do is flash via fastboot mode.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] koossmatrooz:
I just tried using flashtool, everything goes fine exept it doesnt flash.

Downloaded the Stock "Swiss" ROM and tried to flash with flashtool, it recognised the device, because it says device connected, then it askes to unplug en plug in the device, which i've done then the pop up that tells to disconnect/connect the device stays on and nothing happens.

I'm getting a little worried now...

Thanks for your replie
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mharckk:
hey you have working fastboot right or adb? flash a kernel like what ive said above using fastboot,

or you can try this, dont connect your phone to pc yet, make sure it is turn off (hold power button +power up wait till it vibrates 3 times.)

1. open flashtool

2. choose your firmware.

3. when it says unplugged your phone,connect your phone to pc then hold power button +volume up wait till it vibrates 3 times, then hold power button + volume down then release it will flash.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] koossmatrooz:
Thanks for all the replies, i got it working.

Seems that i turned my phone one in fastboot mode and not the flashmode...oops

Flashed the original Swiss ROM again and it works again, thankgod!

But i dont want the original anymore, can i just flash another available rom on the android dev section or do i need to root? Sorry for beeing such a noob.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mharckk:
yes you can just flash any custom kernel it will give you auto root, then u can start flashing rom via cwm. just follow the instructions in every rom.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kilswitch009:
I am having the same problem as I am stuck with DoomLord's boot loop. I tried to flash ICS stock rom but cant get to flash it.

download the latest flashtool, then download ICS stock firmware of your choice on the general section, then flash it via flashmode. (power+volume down)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saju_john:
Hello All,

My Samsung galaxy s3 got rebooted and stuck on the boot screen "Samsung galaxy S III GT-I9300". Never rooted this device. Bought only on June 6, 2012. Just used two months.

Gave to the service center yesterday. They told my whole data on the phone will be lost. I don't have any backup also. Didn't expect this to become faulty so soon. The service center guys checked whether the phone rooted. They told me that the warranty will be void if the phone is rooted. Anyway my phone was not rooted. They tried to load the firmware using odin3.4. But it shows the status failed. They told me it could be the problem with phone's board and need to replace. Asked 3 days’ time for the repair.

I used iphone4s and blackberry previously but never had any issue. First time on android and Samsung Galaxy and gave me very bad experience.

Any chance to get new S3 phone replacement as it is used only 2 months. I am afraid that, the board replaced will be a used one and could create problems later.

Shame on Samsung for poor build quality!!

Anybody has similar expereince ?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottspa74:
Is there really a question here? It's bound to happen that a faulty device makes it out the door. Still, you should buy HTC, not Samsung, better build quality. There's probably a one in a 250,000 chance of faulty device. Your replacement will be fine.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saju_john:
Thanks scottspa74 for your reposnse.

I would like to share my experence with Galaxy S3 and wanted to know anybody else having this problem.

Is there any chance to ask the Samsung for replacement instead of repair ?

Thanks in advance

There is always a probability to have a faulty device whatever the brand. This is why one should always backup important data.

this is not a boot animation, DZO just replace the "android" logo that appears when you dont have any boot animation.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tcm9669:
It's because that boot animation, from what I managed to gather, is in framework-res.apk. What it does is, when you boot the phone will look into the /system/media, if there is no bootanimation.zip it will use the default from framework-res.apk

Rooting Instructions + CWM (Chinese Only though)

Hey guys, I kinda unlocked it already and would like to share the procedure:

0. Download the following files:

driver_2012-01-31.rar - X907 Windows Drivers

anzhi-recovery-x907-cn-mod.7z - Root + CWM

Finder+Root.zip	- Superuser/Busybox/etc

***Upload Finder+Root.zip first into your X907***

1. Power off the X907 by pressing the power button for more than 7 seconds (screen blanks off)

2. Go to fastboot mode by holding the upper volume button (+) and plug in any microUSB cable (plugged in to your PC of course). The X907 should stay in the "Find" boot screen. That should signal the fastboot mode and the phone then should be detected by the PC.

3. Use the driver_2012-01-31.rar file above to install drivers under Windows Device Manager

4. Once detected/identified properly, run rootx907.bat from the anzhi-recovery-x907-cn-mod.7z file.

5. Restart into Recovery Mode by first unplugging the microUSB cable then turning the device off (just press the power button for a few seconds until screen turns off) then press volume down (-) and power button together until the device vibrates, then let go of both buttons. Initially the screen should stay blank then it goes into CHINESE CWM

6. Now the confusing part - the CWM I found is only in Chinese so please bear with me. I've attached a photo of the CWM and the English counterpart of the choices. Select the SECOND option by navigating using the volume down (-) button then pressing the power button. Then press the power button again for the FIRST option to select a zip file from your SD card, then locate the Finder+Root.zip file and press the power button again.

7. Go back and restart your device by selecting the FIRST option (as labeled in the photo above).

8. That's it! Hope everything goes well for you as it did with me ;)
