[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Hi..

How fast (or slow) your Streak boots? It seems to me that my Streak was booting much faster before. Now takes two minutes to complete booting.

- p.s. - complete boot, from Dell's logo to the locked screen...

Tnx...I hope you understand the question ( sorry for my eng.)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
are you using longhorn 2.9.1?

by the way.. i am using longhorn 2.7 and after i turn off boot animation and sound.. it took only 30 second to do complete boot like you said... every time :)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Longorn 2.9.1

Yes, I'am on Longhorn 2.9.1 with cobalt theme....

Don't know...maybe the problem is in this theme...it doesn't bother me so much

...I'm just curious :eek:

tnx for reply
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheManii:
It depends on the rom (obviously) and the amount of apps you have that do stuff at bootup.

On ICS my device is finished booting before the bootanimation completes (you can unlock the screen if you know where the button is and it will unlock)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperKeeper:
I went from Longhorn 2.9.1 to 2.7 and it was a huge difference. From around 2min+ boot time to around 30 seconds.

I was (and still am) new to this and a simple nandroid backup before flashing 2.7 then a data restore after flashing, going great.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
tnx...

Yes...obviously that's it.

I have tons of apps

tnx....
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorks97:

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lexmazter:
As far as i know, LH 2.9.1 has implemented some kind of defragging at boot, that thing takes some time to complete, so there you go with the boot time.

To make some advertising, you can try my LXdroid ROM 0.2 :) (link in signature :))

CM 7.2 on my Streak with Phoenix kernel test 3 and 187 apps installed takes around 40 seconds with original inner SD
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] (InsertNameHere):
MIUI 2.4.20 takes about 30-33 seconds to boot, i run it quite lean with all apps i don't need running at startup turned off.

I think the speed of your innersd card might have an influence here however as i haven't swapped out mine yet i don't know for sure, actually something i really should do since the PDMI port is broken, and the device is worth nothing, might as well give it a go.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
if you guys using longhorn 2.9 and above.. yes.. it does takes time for data defragging and moving data to internal sd... longhorn 2.7 is nothing fancy.. so it complete boots in just 30 seconds...

well... only longhorn 2.9 and above takes it time to boot... the other rom is pretty much standard boot time...

---------- Post added at 09:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 PM ----------

we did reply to you last time that you can do flash rom if it is using streakmod... even if the pdmi port broken...

I know, but changing basebands and recovery and the like is not possible without fastboot, sure i can switch to a different rom, but thats about it.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youri_69:
After I have updated from 2.3.4 to ICS i had no contacts in my phonebook. When I typed in a name of a contact in the google search bar he did find them, so i didn't lose them. I just couldnt' see them in my phonebook or add new contacts.

ICS was also very slow, i liked 2.3.4 better so i wanted to downgrade to 2.3.4. Now the phone just keeps restarting. I see Sony coming on the screen, then it disappears and then it comes back...

What to do now?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrModMan:

But how? I can't connect my phone to the pc, because he doesn't get past the sony screen. So Flashtool doesn't find my phone.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erhany:
long way: Delete all SUS db files and connect phone to SUS.. restore fabric settings+ upgrade to latest version. After that use flashtool to downgrade it.

Short way: Im still thinking about it sorry :/
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khayamxs:
Try This?

Just Whack your battery out hold down the back key and press the power button, problem solved :D Does the trick
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youri_69:
SUS db files?

I can't connect my phone to my computer, so Sony Update Service won't find it. The only thing that works is to connect the phone in fastboot mode, then flashtools finds my phone.

What can I do from that piont on?

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] drock dj:
I been running the international ICS for a while. This past week I decided to try the CM9/10 roms. Everything went well. I want to give the official ICS update a try. I am new to custom roms, what would be the best way to accomplish ICS update.

Edit-I tried to update via TWRP and CWM but for me neither way worked. I flashed recovery.img file through flashboot and then did the update manually. Just wish there was a way to get rid of that T-Mobile sound on boot-up.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] vicfuze:
You can try the manual install via this post as a start. It might still install over your existing ROM. Not sure if it checks for a signature though.

It worked over my rooted Honeycomb T-mobile ROM, but now I don't have root anymore as expected.

Hi Firmware Team, thanks for the hard work and providing the firmware files. It's greatly appreciated! I'm wondering if there's any way to get ahold of a 4.1.2 firmware file other than just taking the OTA update. I soft bricked my Razr V (XT886) that was updated to 4.1.2. I can't get it to boot back up or anything at all. The only option I can think of is to redo the update to Jelly Bean but RSD fails on all attempts to install any of the ICS XML files.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franky_w:
I answer my questin by my own,

perhaps someone can be avoided to search as long as i did

there is an app, called Multiling Tastaur,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mottyengel:
I've been having alot of issues, lag, freezes, reboots, and ive been having these issues on a few different roms ive tried. I had Been running the paranoid android one from Jamied81 and it worked great but then i switched around and on any rom including the PA one, and other cm10 roms, im having the same issues, So There must be something wrong with my phone... i guess?

How can i completely wipe clean and start fresh? because ive been wiping data, cache and dalvik cache but thats not helping...

Of course i could go back to best buy and cash in on my warranty.. but i really dont want to do that...

thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Well,

It depends on the level you want to take the "cleaning" too...

Data, cache, dalvik cache, and stats are a normal cleaning, and used by most folks to get an average clean.

Some roms even state to do this 3 times or more to be sure.

Two additional steps are needed to get the device "clean". and it involves moving everything off of the device to PC storage, and wiping the following two areas.

( by everything, I mean "anything" you want to keep. pictures etc.)

First, the SD card. As the device uses this memory location for cache of files, and bits of user data, it can be a source of misery when bouncing between roms. so a complete format to FAT32 on the PC will wipe this card clean.

Second, and my personal favorite, is wiping of the internal card space, or the EMMC partition.

This is performed through the recovery, under the advanced options menu, in the format sub-section.

Effectively, wiping the emmc "will" remove all rom data from the device, above the normal data wipe level, and leaves the device empty.

Note: the new rom will re-populate the needed files to run the rom upon the first boot cycle.

IMPORTANT !!!

If moving files back to your device from PC, you must ensure that they are clean too. It is very easy to forget that many files contain rom specific data, and should be avoided as a restore function, especially APK's....

The partitions from the last rom will remain in place, but they will be overwritten by using odin to restore the device. ( if you wish to restore the factory rom architecture )

If odin or kies are not used, the rom partitions remain, but are empty anyway.

"WARNING" !!!!

Although this method is considered safe, you "will lose "any" data or files left behind on the internal space of the device, or on your External SD card by formatting.

And you must place a new rom to your External card prior to placing the card back into the phone, and use CWM or TWRP recovery to flash a new rom in recovery mode. (unless odin or kies are used to return a device to stock condition)

Note: (no pun intended)

This method will "not" touch your recovery, Unless using odin or kies to push a non-rooted rom to the device, and the user must choose carefully when selecting any firmware image to flash.

It is up to the user to restore the factory partitions by flashing a stock odin rom, unless the last rom was a "stock" rom. (Note: kies may be used as well, but Odin is the most common, and works well )...

The standard recovery flash can be used, and is advised if you want to retain root...!!!!

"WARNING" !!!... THE USE OF ODIN OR KIES TO FLASH A STOCK FIRMWARE IMAGE WILL REMOVE YOUR ROOT, AND RECOVERY, FORCING THE DEVICE BACK TO A STOCK STATE....( choose carefully as you select any image to flash using Odin or Kies, as these roms are likely "NOT" rooted roms, and will jam you up)...

I hope this helps you.

Please ask if you have any questions, "before" attempting this procedure... PM included.

And could the Mods please move this thread to QA ? Thank you.....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mottyengel:
Wow.... first of all, thanks for the very detailed reply.

So i format the card separately, format the emmc in recovery, and install a new rom? do i need to deal with the other partitions? or will the new rom just take care of that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
The partitions will be empty....and the device will be as clean as you can safely get it, without risking a brick....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mottyengel:
Thanks alot for your help!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Always welcome...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Another easy way...go to this site: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/25980-sgh-i717ucle2-official-leak/, follow the instructions, bam. Basically just throw into DL mode and hit start, its one of the one click Odin ICS leaks from designgears and it completely wipes everything on your phone.

I have run into similar sounding problems as yours where my phone won't wipe properly in cwm, and I've used this to completely nuke my internal storage and start over.

Of course, transfer all pictures, music, and important files to your computer first. Then after you use the one click Odin, just begin romming as usual

While i've seen and like the rootzwiki method, I prefer to manually wipe and install roms.

For me, it adds back in, that level of control I like to have when changing roms etc.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mottyengel:
Thanks for the reply. But, i dont see any instructions... what do i do with the file?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Basically its a one click version of Odin with the files already loaded into it so you don't have to pick anything.

Download it to your comp, unzip the file (I believe?), open the program, put your phone into download mode, connect it to your comp, make sure Odin recognizes it, then click start.

Takes a bit because its a huge process that it's undertaking, but at times its necessary to go nuclear on your phone.

Really should only be used as a last resort to wiping your phone.

Agreed ....g

I wish I knew coding from source. I'm trying to learn as I go along with this, since it's ambitious as it is, combining GB & ICS
[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
Ok, if you MUST know, I made simple mistake; copied the newest SU to /system/app/ but forgot to copy the newest SU, Busybox and dexdump over to /xbin/, so there was a compatibility error. Simple as that. An easier fix is to just uninstall SU on anyone that got the first version, reboot, then d/l and install SU.

Since this is my first attempt at doing any type of work on ROM, give me a break, would ya??
