[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
1. The firmware you are downloading ICS 4.0.3 is very safe. Only 4.0.4 comes with brick bug on its stock kernel. So don't download ICS 4.0.4 firmware

2. Technically, warranty is already voided, If anybody should flash a leaked firmware, or root his phone.

Brick bug or not, Samsung is not 100% at fault if anybody should brick his device while flashing a leaked firmware or after rooting his phone.

The user has to take his own share of the blame too.

Flash a custom ROM.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erica_renee:
Download and do either of the following for a full backup...

the best way to do a complete and full backup of your device.. There are two methods

1 most common

download ROM MANAGER

you can from in this app install a custom recovery on your device..

Boot into the custom recovery and do a full anand backup. you can also flash other custom roms (custom android os)

2 what i use..

download goo manager beta from play store

in go manager click menu at top choose install open source recovery . follow prompts . It will download and install

same as step one you can boot into recovery from goo manager Its big botton fully touch base . And you can backup and restore as well as flash custom roms...

NOW WITH THE ABOVE SAID PLEASE READ thru the forums related to roms rom manager Custom recoveries .. and so on .. this will save you some troubles later .. anything you need to know or not understand Just ask We are here to help.

Cool, thanks! Could you point me to the best place for explanations about roms? XDA is huge and I am not sure where to look... Cheers!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
And then eventually, try out some custom kernels. Although be warned, you may discover a new hobby and become a crack flasher :p

I usually don't keep any one ROM and kernel on my tablet for more then a week (average is 2 days). I'm trying to resist flashing PARANOIDANDROID 1.992 since I heard 2.0 is around the corner.. not sure how long I can hold out though :p

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erica_renee:
To find roms on xda

Xda is a very organized web site for the most part finding them is easy. deciding which one is not so much

rom actually means read only memory.. But we will skip the tech stuff for now..

Here on the device development forums Rom is referred to mostly as a custom built Operating system for your device .

these can be built by one person or a team of developers . Most have tweaks and customization's a bit above and beyond the stock experience. ITS BEST before flashing any new rom is to into the forum thread of the rom read developer info and the comments made on the thread. Many roms have experimental software apps and tweaks.. Not all roms are perfectly stable..SO FINDING one that has what you are looking for is just a matter of reading and trial and error.

Most roms. well all you see anymore Come with a kernel. (The linux part of android .. Kinda whats under the hood) . Be sure to pay attention to this and the information. Some add features some over clock .

we have here for the n7 several types of roms .

original development .. these are based on the custom operating system pushed by google

custom based on the above but often has alot more customization's and kernel tweaks More likely to have buggs . but often faster and take up less storage space on device.. as well as having a personal twist for the developer on apps installed customization's and themes

I never give advice on what to use just go in the development section and start reading .

Be sure before you flash anything on your tablet know what it is and how to get out of it Back to stock and Have your backups backed up...

ALWAYS HAVE A WAY OUT FIRST..

Good Luck

[Motorola Photon 4G] thaisport_sf:
I have installed MOF 2.3.5.ish and have lokifish's tegra ubuntop 1.1.0. My issue is that I can't relock so that I can get my 4g back.

It will relock if I install an sbf (ie sunfire) but it would defeat the purpose of ubuntop as it would completely render webtop back to stock. I know that if i did a purely sunfire 197 install, ubtubtop, then relock it would work.

I assume the relocking files are 2.3.4 which is causing a boot error 4?

Is there any way to get MOF 2.3.5ish and ubuntop 1.1.0 running together in locked mode so I can access 4g?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jaemostoriginal:
i believe MOF 2.3.5ish is for locked bootloaders so you would be able to sbf back to stock 2.3.4 and flash MOF with bootstrap recovery. Idk if ubuntop would work with that though since i never used it

i was going to flash the new 4.0.4 version of ics today so i went to use cwm on my hong kong 4.0.4 version ics to factory reset and it got stuck, so i pulled out the battery and when i turn it on its stuck at the samsung logo boot screen.

I try using odin to flash roms but they are all stuck at NAND WRITE.

i try using a pit file to repartition my samsung but its stuck at the connection part T.T

i had this similar problem before installing a custom kernel on a stock ics and i bricked my phone but i managed to fix it with a pit file and dr.ketan' s pre rooted gb rom then flashed a ics from there.

Now i cant even flash dr. ketan prerooted gb rom because its stuck at nand write please help T.T

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
if it stucks, just unplug the USB cable, then plug it back in, and ODIN would readily detect that.

If not still use a different USB port to plug it to.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unionforce5:
but sometimes it nand write stuck T.T
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
First find a steady USB signal in one of your USB ports.. Plug to that port (to clear the issue on stuck in setup connection), The problem in the stuck connection you have is that Odin can't find a strong usb signal to send to, to your phone. Try using a different usb port (not a usb hub if your using one), then follow the previous post on top -#2 link.

Worst case scenario on your issue would to be, to take your phone back to SSC and have them replace the mobo... Your phone just got hit by the brick bug bud :(

wait a minute..how did you install the kernel ? thru PC Odin? Where you able to boot your phone in download mode? (not the recovery mode).

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
can you post that link you were told to flash the kernel to? That link might be an outdated one already. Anyway the point now is how to revive your brick phone. In download mode, try to flash back to stock GB and again make sure your plug to one of the usb port on your PC and make sure 'Reset time' is tick in PC Odin. After you got the stock GB in place in the 'PDA' part, try to reflash the stock firmware again.

i flashed a india 2.3.5 stock gb rom and i plug to one of the usb on my pc f reset time is ticked and i put the gb rom in the pda and its stuck at factory fs. not at nand write which i encounter with other roms. I have a progress bar on my phone although its stuck at factory fs which is something new. the progress bar is really small i dont know what to do now

this is what odin says

and also forest said this 2. Set up the tools:

- Use odin to flash attached kernel .tar file.

- Then restart the phone to recovery

- Then connect to computer using usb cable.

the thing is that it doesnt restart to recovery only samsung boot logo with a yellow triangle

Is your phone rooted before? You can't make any nandroid backup if your phone is rooted. Now given if your phone still has root on it. What was the last kernel that your phone was using?

Please bear in mind, you need to really understand the instructions presented on that link I gave you. If it helps that you need to read it from the start of that thread down to the very end, then do so. It's the only alternative way I can advice you to revive your brick phone.

Hi,

I'm looking for an application which would display movie database info as XBMC does on PC, based on filenames (as stored in sdcard).

Any idea?

[Asus Transformer TF700] ricorico94:
Thanks a lot toboth of you !

Mizuu appears on market now, but its version is said uncompatible with my tablet (TF700T), so I can't try it. And I couldnot find the appication or a previous version on intrnet totest it. If you know where I could find a demo versio to try...

I tried Movi database HD: looks fine, and I can select source database, which is good. The downside is that it does not seem providing info on the "quality" of the fil itself (codecs, definition) which obviously does not come from a DB.

Ricorico94
[Asus Transformer TF700] CostaKev:
Mizuu really is fantastic, the look is gorgeous. And allows you to play the movies with any media player you want, even the stock one. Something movi database hd doesn't allow you to do. And of course it runs perfectly with the infinity. Download the apk, I'm not sure why the developers haven't allowed access to download it on our infinitys' but its their loss.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jeffw111:
I agree Mizuu is flat out the best movie database app to use. I think the reason the dev hasn't allowed it on Infinity is that he's in the middle of a major re-architecture of the app itself to improve the speed and overall usability.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Keion:
Try XBMC.
[Asus Transformer TF700] TimoLimo:
The dev of Mizuu is active here on XDA too. For those that can't download via Play (like myself and everybody else with an Infinity, you can contact him (Here's his post in the XDA Mizuu thread).

It's a really nice tool, and I like the fact you can filter on 'available files' meaning you can swap (micro)SD cards and always have a list of movies/tv series you can actually watch at that point.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jyan_osu:
You can install the nightly of Mizuu from http://mizuu.tv/tag/nightly/

[Desire HD General] l33ch0r:
What exactly do you mean? Topic says "without bootloader" but still you're able to provide a photo of what's written in your bootloader? Doesn't make sense :-/

What's happening if you try to go into recovery? If it's neither 4ext nor cwm and aahk ain't working - I can't help you (shortage of knowledge)

If you just want it to run again, put the right PD98IMG on the root of your sdcard and let the bootloader flash it (but read really carefully how to do this ;) )

AAHK will be able to install the cmw recovery which is provided in the kit... run the kit choose the 3rd option thn choose the option which says install clockwork recovery..

[Desire HD General] Genius90:
just to get intonation :silly: i know it's not sense
[Desire HD General] l33ch0r:
I don't know how you get recovery on your device but at least it's s-off. So you are able to flash a custom Rom. But I'm not sure how, if you say you don't have recovery...

Using aahk for it means you have to use a pc. If it fails it could be, because pc doesn't recognize your device.

Check if you have the necessary drivers installed which you can install with HTC sync. You don't need HTC sync after that, just the drivers.

Apart from that i don't know what else to do

You must be is fastboot usb mode (choise in your bootloader)

1. Download a recovery.img for desire hd (i recomend 4ext)

2. Set up adb

3. Place the recovery.img in the same folder as fastboot (in the folder of adb you find "fastboot")

4. Use command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

5. Use command "fastboot reboot"

6. Use command "adb reboot recovery"

So,the thing is this:I installed facebook app on my new galaxy 2 (android version 4 something,icecream sandwitch I bellieve it is).

Naturally,I really don't want the app to do that,who the hell wants their folks in their facebook?Moreover,I have people there which I really have no desire to have on my facebook.

We all know that part of TMO's "actual unlimited" plan means you can't tether. So I wonder how TMO's going to approach seeking out those people. Does your phone report the kind of ROM you're on to TMO? If so, that could be one way they find out.
[Networking] lykos:
T-mobile cannot legally look at your private data. They cannot look at what you're downloading or what you're using to download. What T-mobile does is look at the user agent of your browser to see if it reports you on a mobile or desktop browser, and they monitor the volume of data to see if there are any abnormal spikes. You can easily get around these by saying "all the data used was on my phone by *insert application*" or "I was using desktop mode on my browser, I wasn't tethering." They still have the right to suspend or terminate you but it's less likely.
