first you have to root, then you gotta install custom recovery. you have to unlock the bootloader to install a custom kernel but there are quite a few custom roms optimized for the stock kernel/locked bootloader

first, download the doomlords one click root kit, then root, then download se extreme tweaks and select install cwm for 2011 xperia and you'll be on your way! if you need detailed help, pm me!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] FabioRochapt:
Hey,

Thanks for the answer.

Using the doomloards batch ive got root.

What roms could i use without unlocking bootloader?

My phone doesnt allow me to unlock the bootloader through sony.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] crack73:
do you want ics roms or gb roms?

i'm not that into gb roms so i wouldnt know, but the hasa roms are okay.

for ics roms, there is minicmsandwich, real ics and real ics lite. i'm using real ics lite. there are more roms but those are my favorite ics roms.

for ics roms, however, you have to root ics. that's pretty simple.

unpack the rar i attached, run 01-local-prop, follow the instructions, once that's done, flash ics via flashtool but uncheck "wipe data" and that's it. after that's done and you boot into ics, run the 02-push-root-files, and install cwm again via se extreme tweaks. then just flash a custom rom via cwm. easy as that :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] FabioRochapt:
What ICS rom do you suggest?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] crack73:
I currently use real ics lite r3 so I suggest that. If you decide you don't like that one, you can always try mini cm sandwich
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] FabioRochapt:
Could you please post a Link to the thread of the rom?

Thank you
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] blackstallion1234:
You'll need to unlock the bootloader. There are two methods - the test point method (if you don't want to lose DRM keys, TrackID and such Sony stuff) or the official method. Both these methods are available in the FAQ by Someguyfromhell.

Once you do unlock the bootloader, you need to flash either a kernel that's provided in the ROM or another kernel that supports the desired ROM.

Once again, read the FAQ here.

There are quite a few ROMs out there which include:

ExMIUI

Real ICS r5.2

CyanogenMod ROMs

ParanoidAndroid

Try 'em all out, see which one works for you the best!

Hello,

I would need help of someone. I have a Galaxy S3 Canadian version SHG-I747M, Android Version 4.0.4 Baseband version I747MVLLE8. I tried to put an update to remove SMS logs from the call logs. I used the .zip file in this post :

I installed this .zip file and I just got logsprovider has stopped unexpectedly looping again and again. I used root explorer and I deleted Logproviders.odex under system/app. Now, I also get Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped again and again.

I tried to flash a stock Rogers ROM, but it doesn't fix anything. Is there anyone nice to help me to fix my problem ? That would be really much appreciated.

What I find really weird, it's that I flashed with odin the stock ROM found on samsung website, it worked, but I still have the same problem and my downloaded apps and contact were not deleted after flashing the new rom... This is weird...

Has anyone found a good keyboard set up for the nexus 7? I am starting school back up soon and would like to find an elegant and well functioning keyboard set up to take notes on my little tablet but haven't seen anything on here that catches my eye.

I can't from the transformer and the dock is the only thing I miss!

I recently saw that Samsung came out with a seven inch tab student bucks bundled that came with as little keyboard dock. Not sure if that would be compatible though.

Anyone find a good keyboard, dock, and our cars case for this?

I love my Thinkoutside folding keyboard which I've had for years. I was really please that it connected and worked perfectly with the N7. I also have some cheesy old BT mouse that really rounds out the set.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] JOLiu:
I second the Thinkoutside folding keyboard. I had read about it on one of these boards and recently picked up a used one to be used with both my Nexus 7 and HP Touchpad. It is nice and portable, and very comfortable (in my opinion) to use.

You can try and see whether you can pick one up on Craigslist or eBay.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Alex2x3:
Thanks a lot I will check it out. Do you guys use something separate to prop the tab up?

Edit: can't seem to find out in stock almost anywhere. Pretty pricy too for the few I found on eBay. Some seem to have a little cradle and some don't. Any difference? I'll keep an eye out though.

Any other suggestions?

The Verbatim Folding Bluetooth Keyboard is really good. The keys are wide and have good response. It's made for the iPad, so obviously their are some iOS specific keys that don't work, but other than that it's solid.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Toast95135:
I posted a deal on a Motorola one the other day, it has a trackpad and Android hotkeys. If you can find one for a similar price then it would be worth it, otherwise I would suggest either the bigger Logitech ($50-$60) one or the HP Touchpad keyboard ($30).

I ordered a Zippy keyboard from NewEgg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823701033, and a bit cheaper at Amazon, http://www.amazon.com/Zippy-FULL-Function-Bluetooth-Keyboard/dp/B004MMESVY

It is a bit smaller than I expected but it works well with the 7 as it is faster than the on screen keyboard and I only type with about 4 or 5 fingers anyway. Can be paired with 6 BT devices and switch between them. I haven't used it much yet, but it seems sturdy and well made.

I have a book type case that I prop up when using the keyboard and snagged a $5 Motorola BT mouse the other day on woot.

Chainfire 3d will not work on jellybean. because all of the jellybean ROMS available are either leaked version of unofficial versions which are UNSTABLE versions. you will have to wait for the stable release of jellybean.

Chainfire 3D will not work on JB as long as Chainfire will adjust the program, which, as I read in another threat will not happen soon as it is a lot of work (please correct me if I am wrong).

If you try to use Chainfire 3D on JB you will end up stuck on Samsung start screen.

Hence only way to use Chainfire 3D for now is use ICS.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] s1imch4anc3:
I'm fixing an infuse for a friend who needed the screen replaced simple enough job so I thought as I repair phones and electronics as kind of a hobby. However the replacement screen isn't responding to any kind of touch at all. It displays the puzzle piece lock screen and everything else even shows there's been some missed calls ect. yet will not respond to any kind of touch. I think it's a calibration issue but I can't get passed the lock screen so there's no way to change the setting. Honestly I'm most worried about all the media on the phone most (pics, videos, contacts, ect )

If there is a way I can retrieve that off the internal storage I'll feel better about taking drastic measures. Other things I've noticed is an unusualy long boot up time hanging at the white Samsung letters but this is the first time I've dealt with an infuse so I'm not to sure on that.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,

There are different versions of screens or maybe it was revisions. At least for the LCD +digitizer assembly. Rev.6.1 and 6.2 and 6.3 if I remember correctly.

Edit....here is a link for reference, also two of the screens were interchangeable but not all three. Sorry I don't remember which ones.

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=180914982430&siteId=0&isClassified=false

Edit....my statement regarding interchangeability may not be true. The screen I bought could be used as a replacement for two of the rev numbers. That could mean that it is backward compatible but the other one isn't forward compatible.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] s1imch4anc3:
The link said this item has been removed, but to be clear your saying not all revisions of screens can be used as replacements that you must find out which rev your original screen is?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] adfurgerson:
Correct mine had a sticker on it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] s1imch4anc3:
Bummer I have no idea what kind of screen she had I threw it away as a jumbled mess is there any other way to find out what screen it was... either way thanks for the replies
[Samsung Infuse 4G] adfurgerson:
Wish I could answer that, but here is another screenshot. It shows one for 6.0/6.1 and another for 6.2 so my original numbers were off. Did the new one say what it is?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] s1imch4anc3:
Do you know of any way to retrieve the pics and other media off the phone without being able to unlock the screen
[Samsung Infuse 4G] adfurgerson:
Just guessing but maybe adb. You could try to edit the title of your thread or start a new one about this question.

Edit..I have an idea but first a few questions , is this phone stock, and would you be comfortable flashing a kernel if it is? This will give you CWM recovery which has mount USB storage as an option in it. All this can be done with the physical buttons, power and volumes.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] s1imch4anc3:
I found something that may work without having to make software modifications so I'm going to try that first and if not I'll get back to you...

To answer your questions tho the phone is stock and I've rooted /flashed a couple phones with no problems before so I'm OK with giving it a try

Again I'd like to thank you for your continuous help
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
You should be able to pull everything you need with adb...but the problem is, is adv enabled? And can you pull a whole directory? I doubt you know individual file names for each media file, not to mention that would be a long tedious process as there are likely well over a 100 if not in the 1000s of music/pics/vids

Well..looks like you can pull a whole.directory (sdcard)

this thread may help http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=744454

Btw...you don't have to be rooted to adv pull :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] s1imch4anc3:
UPDATE: I took the phone back apart finally after some grueling hours of adb research that lead me almost in circles and found that the replacement LCD is a rev 6.2 and that the revs 6.0/6.1 are the universal more common screens in the u.s. infuse. I decided to return the screen and get the other rev in hope it will be that easy...

I'd like to thank the 2 above members that gave me help especially adfergurson for sticking with me and my ?s I will post back when the next screen comes in to confirm it worked for anyone else needing this as future reference
[Samsung Infuse 4G] adfurgerson:
ADB was the first thing I thought of, but flashing a kernel with custom recovery in Odin should allow you to get into USB storage. I am not familiar with the stock recovery but you could see what options are there. I believe it would be from device powered off hold volume up+volume down+ power buttons then release power at Samsung screen.
