I've been like a crack addict checking XDA and DroidRZR.com for an update on this. Lets hope the rumors are good! I want them to move on with ICS to get working on the JB OTA ASAP!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SamuriHL:
So far I've not seen any reports of soak test emails going out. Hence I'd not get my hopes up too high. It would be fitting if it soaked tomorrow though. I'll be gone for the weekend. And given how impatient people are these days for an OTA, I suspect once it soaks people are going to jump on it. Even though a soak does NOT equate to a guaranteed OTA. (cough cough 901, 904....) My House of Bionic will be getting a workout as soon as the soak test is "announced".
[Motorola Droid Bionic] twinkyz1979:
I will tell you that the Moto forums been flying off the handle with talk of a soak test. I been getting all kinds of email updates from people posting things for the last few days now. I hope it means something is coming soon. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SamuriHL:
Well, I'm leaving soon. So, um, good luck! :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dylanear:
Well, the latest news is a Q4 ICS roll out. They updated the update schedule page to get rid if the "early Q3" thing.

Beyond pathetic.

I'm going to need to see an amazing turn around on support and updates from Motorola and see that without exception for a few years before Ill ever consider another motorola. In the mean time, I'll be getting a Galaxy S3 very soon.

If I had the money, I'd follow your lead. As it is, I've learned my lesson about ever again buying a locked phone or trusting a manufacturer's upgrade promises. And VZW can eat it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SamuriHL:
Moto is not the problem with our update. You guys and gals get we've had 10 leaks so far and vzw is who rejected them and is delaying the release. Blame vzw and their update process.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ichigo007:
ok i am on .232. I would really like to know if .244 is significantly better. I have had some stability problems the longer .232 is on my phone. I don't mine taking the jump to .244 even thou currently no way to jump back to .904. I just want a stable ICS build. what are the differances between 232 and 244?

Someone who knows all the changes in the version should if they have time create a sticky on what has changed and fixed in each version.

.246 is the latest leak

You guys really should take a look at the new Motorola before switching to Samsung. Seems as if they are remedying all of their problems, but its not something that they can turn around overnight. I'm pretty happy to hear them even mention the Bionic recently.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Greek81:
My friend just did the FH13 OTA update on his E4GT through sprint and the very next day his phone started rebooting randomly and the power button will not lock the screen or unlock it. It just reboots the phone even if I just tap it. It will barely stay on. So I told him I would look at it since I have the same phone and some experience with installing recovery and custom roms. I flashed the EL29 reset successfully and installed a custom recovery (CWM rogue). I was planning on installing a stable ICS rom for him and I was almost positive that it would fix it. But its still doing the same thing . I've never heard or seen anything like this personally on here or in person. If anyone has any ideas please let me know cause I'm stumped lol . Thanks guys !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DaMan90:
Take it to sprint with a non rooted stock version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottycincotti:
same thing happened to me.

I Flashed my phone and had a bad problem error because cwm didnt function right. (Probably my own wrong doing) I did the same and flashed it with an older stock rom gingerbread.EL29 and I also am still having the same problem. I am gonna root to ff18 to see if that might fix the problem because a factory reset right after still didnt do any good. Is there any way to fix it besides going to sprint store?

Is this LH3 and La5 an official updates ? Or just a leak?

Is LH3 jelly bean?

If its official whats easiest way to upgrade. I almso brick my phone while upgradibg to LH2 so i willl appreciate if som1 guide me on this.

Thank you.

Updates for Chicago

Does anyone know when T-Mobile will push out ANY update in the Chicago area?

I am still running the original UVALEM main code and UVLH2 base band (I updated this one from another thread on here).

They have released T999UVALI5 over the air update as of Sept. 10, 2012.

T-Mobile customer service doesn't even know what updates are available (or even that there is an update available) most of the time.

I understand wanting bug fixes pushed out to the customer but push them out to customers within a reasonable time frame for crying out loud.

I bet the Jelly Bean OTA will be being pushed in some areas before they get around to pushing out the UVALH2 main update.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] joshnichols189:
If that is the case they will just push out Jellybean.

Sent from my SGH-T999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
It is highly possible that either your phone has somehow been inadvertently missed or excluded. Or it could be that you've flashed a new baseband and/or other mods.

I would recommend just using kies or odin to get the UVALH2 update.

Also, UVALH2 is the ONLY update that has been released by T-mobile. Everything else is leaked and can ONLY be used by flashing in stock recovery.

UVALI5 was not released. It was leaked and will never be had by the Software Update service from Tmobile. (Only if they are completely satisfied and make no major changes would they MAYBE release it...doubtful though)
[HTC One X] SammyK300:
Hi guys, couldn't find the answers I'm looking for so i thought I'd start a thread that everyone could post issues and fixes for the most recent update. If this should be in Q & A feel free to move it.

So I got my update last week from Vodafone Australia and just noticed a couple of issue's that maybe the guys that have had the update for a month now can help with.

Basically first thing is there is less free ram, I used to have about 400mb free most of the time now its down to about 300mb.

Now this is only an issue to me as I think it affects my real problem.

The internet has become next to useless to me and it's what I use my phone for 75% of the time. Basically if I try to do anything else the page has to reload, if its fully loaded or just half loaded as soon as I take it off the screen it has to load again.

This isn't just a multitasking issue as it also happens if I switch between tabs, the one in the background always has to reload and I think this is due to not having enough ram to do anymore than have one web page open.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue and know a fix?

My phone is 100% stock btw.

Thanks for the help.
[HTC One X] eSouL:
For me, Youtube video stutters after updating to 2.17. It's not a network issue. Even offline (watch later) videos stutter.
[HTC One X] bubigrega:
No issues whatsoever. My One X flys. Even have much better battery life than before 2.17 update. Try factory reset.

And free RAM is wasted RAM in Linux.
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
Well yes but if there's more ram available then there's more headroom for multitasking and in theory apps are less likely to be closed.
[HTC One X] SammyK300:
Which is why I think its the cause of my internet issues.

Has anyone noticed having less free ram?
[HTC One X] bubigrega:
But big Internet page doesn't take 300mb of ram. I doubt that much more than 1mb. And browser maybe 30mb. Correct me if I'm wrong but 300 mb is plenty of ram for browsing.

Update: HTC browser 80mb right now with 3tabs open: engadget, phandroid and siol site.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kreeker:
On a few developments threads they seems to recommended to wait 5 minutes without doing anything after installing a rom. Why exactly? Is it necessary?

If you're on rom that's on nightly status should you do this 5 minute wait each time you install a new revision even if you don't wipe data?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I've never waited 5 minutes and my phone works flawlessly.

There's no real reason you should wait, and if you have to wait, obviously something is wrong with the ROM in question.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] silver1882:
That's a new one on me. What would be the point?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blue6IX:
Mostly unnecessary for devices with the amount of RAM this has, but it was common on older devices to lose setup files still in ram because the user started doing stuff right away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kreeker:
Here one thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1880502

I have also heard eschelon of the synergy team recommend waiting 5 minutes as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mustbepbs:
I heard that you have to wait 5 minutes with the phone facing south (only on Tuesdays, if it's any other day you face west), and you also have to wave your arms around while it's installing. Plus wipe battery stats after.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
I think they just say that because the phone is doing a lot of stuff in that first 5 mins after a flash. Newer users might start trying to sync their FB calendar or install 23 widgets and cause the phone to freeze up, which consequently leads to them posting in the ROM thread saying "doesn't work - froze up" etc...

The OP is referring to the new JB TW ROM. The dev said to do that. Guess what? I didn't :)

Don't worry about it OP, just realize your phone is going 100 miles/hr in that first boot after an install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fakir420:
Thanks, I was curious about the 5 minute wait as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
It's for safety sake. But no it's not required and anyways who tells you otherwise is clueless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SFniner415:
Personally i never done that nor have i even heard/read of that on any roms. But if the instructions in a rom says to do it, ima do it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sasquatch080:
Part of the process of elimination when you're trying to figure out what went wrong after installing a rom. Then feel like a dumbass when that's all you had to do.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Legato Bluesummers:
Whenever I'm on my first boot from a ROM flash I just walk away for 10 min. I know it's going to take a while to boot and load the dalvik cache. And i know after boot up it has a bit to do which usually makes it a little slower at first. I have a phone and a tablet. So while one is doing its thing I can just use the other to kill time. I don't mind waiting to get the smoothest experience.

I follow the instructions the ROM provides. Some may say it's not necessary but it doesn't hurt to following the instructions to get the ROM running right on your phone. It's your phone so do what you think it's best.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] zemoffm:
Hey everyone,

I apologize if this has already been asked; did some searching but didn't really find much.

So I updated my samsung galaxy tab 8.9 wifi to ICS via Kies when the update was released sometime back, not thinking that it would prevent me from being able to root (I know, stupid of me). I always figured Samsung devices were developer friendly, and always had easy ways to root them.

I tried the root instructions posted in all the tutorial posts, and unfortunately they does not work for me (and I presume others). I get a "E:unknown volume for path [/sdcard]" error when trying to access "apply update from external storage" from recovery. I assume this is a change to the bootloader/recovery that Samsung made to prevent unauthorized access (aka, rooting), which is kind of a bummer if you ask me.

When googling for that I found a lot of stuff, but nothing that really told me the best course of action to take for this tablet. Should I hold out for someone to come up with a solution, or would it be best to revert back to 3.2 (if that is even possible), and then "install" the package I saw on the XDA developers front page that gets ICS on the tab with root access. Or is there something else I should do? I've found articles explaining some courses of action, but none explicitly related to the new ICS update that was just released (these were mostly articles referencing the prior 3.2 version).

I realize it was only recently since the update was provided, but any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated. I would like to have root again on ICS if possible!

Thanks.

You have to have an amazon account. So if you dont, make one. sign in, and download it via the QR Code method.

Is the Windmobile of the S-4G available to be flashed to ICS? I've flashed a few phones, just having a hard time figuring out what variant the Windmobile version is and if it's upgradable with cyanogen to a later version, debating about upgrading tomorrow to one.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fingolfin14:
Try looking at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1552119

Bhundven was able to confirm that the phones are [almost] identical with a few small differences and that flashing ROMs for the 959V should be safe. Again, read the thread for more detailed information.

Pay close attention to this warning though: "If the rom contains bootloaders, please DO NOT flash them until we can confirm there are no bootloader differences."

As FBis251 said later, "TLDR: Don't flash bootloaders if the ROM contains bootloaders. No CWM roms contain bootloaders, a lot of heimdall/odin roms contain bootloaders."
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
If the phone come with gingerbread installed yes. You just have to be very careful. The bootloaders we have are for the T-mobile version. So if you foul up and need to flash back to stock with bootloaders you are boned. However if you just want to flash a flavor of ics this can be done with the purple link in my signature. That will get you rooted with clockworkmod recovery then just flash one of the flavors of ics.

With all that said search is your friend, this information is posted in this subforum AND the general android forums. Our dev bhundven has a couple threads on how to do this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
I've asked people if they have the stock leaked rom for t959w to PM me, and no one has.

Someone also offered to try flashing t959v bootloaders, but never got back to me. My guess is that either it worked great and he is quietly rockin some rom in the dev forum, or it bricked his device and he didn't know what to do with it.

If someone has a t959w they are replacing, I'd like to try my hand at applying AdamOutler's unbrickable mod and experimenting with bootloaders on that device.

There is also the t959p, which is the telus galaxy s 4g.

This phone is different then the t959v or t959w. It has cg2900 gps, where as we have a-gps and there are a few other differences.

The same goes there. If someone has a t959p, I'd like to try the same.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
Thanks everyone. I normally search, I was just in a rush as I was getting a new phone this morn and it was between the S 4G or the Q with the slide out keyboard, but it seems no one decided to do anything on the Q, so I went for the S 4G. I'll do lots of reading before I decide to flash or not, I just like having the option.

I am currently using the paranoid android rom and noticed it has an easy way to enable or disable the hardware buttons.

My question is, is it possible to enable and disable the buttons using either a combination of the volume buttons, or a long press of a hardware button. Reason being is i have a 2 year old who loves using flashcard apps but he's always hitting the buttons and messing everything up. I would also like this because it keeps him out of other apps and calling random people.
