[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
were you originally on a 2.3.3 UGKG3?? anyway the procedure for upgrade is you need a 2.3.6 bootloader with CWM , than into CM 9 and finally into CM 10...to avoid having problems
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blasteryui:
Yes i believe i was on 2.3.3.. so what do I do to get back there to get the network to work again?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
ok follow this ...will upgrade you to ICS, after that you can upgrade to JB
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blasteryui:
Hey i just need to get my network working, how would I just get back to 2.3.3, I can look into getting into ics after, or i might no even bother i just need to get this network working again lol. I believe i'm flashing it back to stock now.. ill let you know what happens
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
just follow that guide to flashing the UGKG3 ROM with the 512 PIT file ( this Rom is used on i9000M, whereas the JVU ROM, I asked you and gave you link for is for i9000)

It seems you may need pictures, lol...so that why I sent you that web site;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blasteryui:
Lol, I reply before I even bother looking and then I end up finding the same answer, just trying to rush because it's not my phone. I'll attempt at ICS after, network is asking for an unlock code.. so now I could do what I did before to unlock it. Should I just go to ICS now and then unlock it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
it should, just follow the picture you can download the files from the first link
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blasteryui:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
up to you, which ever is convenient for you
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blasteryui:
Okay, everything works great now, on ics. How would I upgrade to JB safely lol? To unlock I used SGS unlock pro
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
just backup your EFS folder and flash following the guide from that chosen JB ROM
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshuaRead:
So I just got an Xperia Play that I won from a giveaway. Nice little phone. I already have a Galaxy S3, so I have no reason to use the Xperia Play as my phone. It does, however, make a nice wi-fi only game playing machine and media player.

It is on 2.3.2 still, which I assume is what the phone launched with. I just read that there was an update that brought it to 2.3.4, so I tried updating, but it won't check for updates without a cellular connection (have no idea why; seems kind of stupid). Is there any way to still get this update? Can I download it from somewhere online and put it on the microSD card on the phone or something?

Thanks in advance.

There's a lot of guide in the stickies. U really should "embrace the xda noob spirit" & utilize the search box as much as u can instead of making a new redundant thread like this. Sory if my word somehow offended u but it needs to said. So sory.

And to giv u start go on to the x-play development thread, stickies & find a guide on "how-to" flash a f/w. There's also a guide at the general section too. So go get started.;)

Okay, I didn't know it was redundant, since I hadn't seen any other threads for it, and I was wondering if somebody had the firmware file and if I could just put it on the microSD card and install it. If I had known that you can't do that, the thread would not have been posted.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicefella:
Hey guys I have been on Knzo's Chocolate with Marmite for a while and while its certainly a great combo, JellyBean just *feels* heavy. Its not slow or anything but it just feels *heavy* you know? Also, the notification bar REALLY lags when I pull it down and its certainly not as fast as ICS. Is anybody experiencing the same problem? Or questions?

Thanks!:)

Really? Hmm I don't know I did a full wipe and everything! I mean its smooth but the notification lag really kills the experience :/
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noizy1234:
I haven't had any lag either.. Not notification bar..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7TimesCursed:
I think the heaviness thing is true for the notification tray.. it must be the fact that its not transparent, and the text on top seems a little crowded to me. However, performance is as good as ever.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexus-S:
It's not just you. It lags really bad on my phone too, whatever the ROM/Kernel combo.

It becomes a whole lot faster when I disable Google Now, however that kind of defeats the object of running JB instead of ICS.

I'm almost certain that it's a limitation of only having 512mb RAM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiro-kun:
Oh.. No.. Mine is lighting responsive! I am using ts5 rom.. Which for me is better than others. Including codename..

my CM10 is fast and stable
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monsterduc1000:
I've tried cm10, aokp jb and slim bean, and while I found slim bean to be the best (by far, the only to not to freeze and reboot with 1.2ghz overclock) of these three, all three of them had the same problem with graphics intensive games (Dead Space, NOVA 3, Modern Combat 3) where they would lag like crazy and the controls would freeze. This NEVER happened with cm9. Games ran incredibly smooth with cm9. BUT...I was so impressed with how far and away better Slim Bean was than the others that I'm going to give Slim ICS a try when I have a chance to flash it.

Other than the graphic intensive games that lag, I think JB is great and loved Google Now, but I can live without it as the ICS roms are (I have found) just as smooth and more usable than the JB roms at this point.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiro-kun:
oh sorry about that.. haha.. its actually called "JellyB-TSM 5" but I think around yesterday its already updated to version 6. You can check it out under the nexus s android development section.. For me it is fast.. but some other people might have different experience. So just create a nandroid backup.. and give that ROM a flash.. and see how it turns out.. any problem you can simply revert via nandroid.. hehe.. :good:
[HTC One X] boogiecornejo:
damn htc for this!
[HTC One X] Basil3:
I can't imagine it's a priority for several reasons:

A high proportion of mac users probably go iphone.

Most HTC owners probably have a pc.

Very few htc owners even use the sync software. I know I stopped years ago when I switched from winmo to Android.

How much money do you actually need to pay for the third party software?
[HTC One X] treebill:
i've only ever installed sync software to get the drivers, if i couldn't get them else were.

just having a fast look on google using site, www.netmarketshare.com

windows 92%

mac 7%

linux 1%

cost of making software for 7%? and as you nicely pointed out i bet the percentage of htc owners that also have a mac are even lower probably lower then linux.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Matt08642:
Title says it all, really. I want to try custom kernels, but I am not sure if I need a custom ROM to do that, or if I can just flash them with a stock ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
You can use stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thedudejdog:
It depends.

You can run a custom kernel on the stock Rom, but you may be missing out without init.d support the stock Rom doesn't offer.

If you use a kernel with init.d script tweaks you should use a custom rom with support added. I know there are some very stock looking roms out there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CodeNameNexus:
I ran Trinity on stock for a while. Worked great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Matt08642:
One more question about this:

To flash a custom kernel (specifically Franco kernel), do I just flash the small zip in CWM or the like? Also, if I want to back to 100% stock, can I just flash boot.img in fastboot mode, or will their be residual files? (I have a nandroid if I cannot do this)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
Yes, flash the .zip using a custom recovery. When you flash a custom kernel, the update package may do more than just flash the kernel itself. So if you flash stock kernel (boot.img) back using fastboot, this doesn't have to be enough to fully return to the pre-custom kernel state. Restoring a nandroid will certainly do that, of course.

When you are willing to spend a few bucks, most popular kernels can be flashed using their control apps available in the play store. I know Franco's updater app allows you to fully backup the stock kernel + files before you flash a franco.kernel, and allows you to restore these backups.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] jebise101:
This phone is going with my sister so needs to be stable and have everything working. I currently have CM9.1 stable on this and it seems very stable so far. I thinking of either upgrading to the latest CM9 nightly or going going straight to the latest and greatest CM10 nightly.

What do you guys recommand, stay with stable or upgrade to CM9/10 Nightly??

Currently the latest CM9 nightly is from 2012-09-16, can anyone comment that is running it?

Or what about the Slim Roms?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dominik916:
I think that from stable version (cm9) roms are stable.

Slimics seems faster than cm and is also stable. Both ROMs work good.

So I don't know which ROM recommend you. I was more satisfied with slim ROM.

I haven't tested cm10 yet. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jebise101:
i'm leaning towards slim as well because CM seems to slow down to a crawl when installing apps. YAY/NAY?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] LORDFIRE00:
I'm running cm10, and it working fantastic for me. Every device responds differently, so why not test a slim out and compare. If u don't like it, just change it before u give it to ur sister.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] King Soft:
both are very good roms, i prefer cm10 or any other rom based on cm10 :P
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fiize:
If I were you, I would just stay on CM9.1 stable or at least wait for CM10 RC1.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jebise101:
my biggest complain for CM 9.1 is 911 does not work, I wonder if this works on Slim. Can anyone confirm?

My 3 year old nephew has major allergies and this is the only phone she has and 911 is a MUST.

Just try dialing and see if it works and if it does just tell them you are testing 911 for phone software and they will understand. I have done this will another device and they said "yup its working" and I was good.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Aviatoru:
Last CM9 nightly is very stable and excellent for daily usage (in fact is 9.1.0 + some small fixes)

CM10 is working good also, but there are some small issues to be fixed (photo to external SD, direct dial in lock screen, some missing features from CM9)

I don't know about Slim, but between CM9 and CM10, I would pick latest CM9.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jebise101:
and what about 911?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Aviatoru:
Sorry, in Europe is 112. Somebody from US should comment on 911
[Galaxy S I9000 General] burakgon:
112 works for me both cm10 and 9.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jebise101:
I think it might be the modem or because i did a restore of CM9 right after going 100% stock and not installing stable 9.1 zip first.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Sidgah:
In Mexico is 060 and it works fine for me. I'm using ugkg3 modem due to 850mhz support. About the roms... I tried both and Slim it's more customizable than CM, both are super fast and are stable enough to use it as daily drive. Right now I'm running the last CM10 nightly + semaphore 2.4.0 and it's super smooth... I recommend you to try both roms and decided which one do you like better

Reason for making: I am really bored

So ONLY FOR LT28h ICS flashers. If you did the other LT28i ICS then you are good

a) I expect that you know how to use flashtool and have that in order (since you did flash the LT28h rom XD)

1) download http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach...39b05e/5067c79a/1/2/4/2/3/2/8/LT28at_i_LTE.7z

-------NOTE: I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THIS. it was made by greatremix http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=2454561

2)Prepare to flash in flashtool

3)deselect everything besides baseband

4)flash and boom you should be up and running (reboot if it gets stuck booting up the first time)

If you think i made a instruction mistake POST i know some people will argue over step 3 but it is what I did
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] faiisfaizal:
What should this thing do? ...sorry for noobie Question
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 424aca:
when one flashes the ICS international (Lt28h) FTF onto their Xperia ion Lt28a(ATT) then the problem is that one does not get the 4g LTE that they pay hard earned money for.

so the reason for this problem is the baseband...which is why i made this post.

(when i first flashed without this info...i started to panic. Dont want anyone to feel like i did for 1 day)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] faiisfaizal:
I thought this thread is for Xperia ION (LT28 H) to get LTE working
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 424aca:
nope the tiltle is

Lt28h ICS for ATT LTE

the key Acronym is ATT (which is a service provider if you did not know)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] faiisfaizal:
My Bad.....Hahaha Im GOnna wait they develop custom kernel and rom
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Actually its only if you flash the LT28h ICS. You can always flash the LT28i International ICS and not have to worry about it becuase the LT28i has LTE support. There really isn't a reason to use the LT28h firmware anymore since ICS has been released. It was used before the LT28i and LT28at ICS release to get root and ICS on the LT28i and LT28at

The whole process of using LT28h on the AT&T ion and keeping LTE has been discussed in the Rooting thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1812168 but again it isn't really needed anymore.

So, I just flashed to the LT28H ROM and I'm experiencing the same issue that everyone on this thread has seen. I just wanted to confirm that instead of displaying 4G, the phone now displays H+ when connected to a non-LTE network.

Apologies for the noob question.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Thats what happens with the international firmwares. It shows H, H+, then 4G for LTE. AT&T firmware will show 4G, then LTE for LTE networks. That is how it is supposed to be with those firmwares.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] UchihaDareNial:
2G = Will be shown as G (aka GSM)

3G = Will be shown as H (aka HSPA/HSDPA?)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
I have a LT28at and I am currently using the LT28h jelly bean rooted with the LT28i 3.7 ICS baseband flashed after.

I get

3G = 3G

H/H+ = 3.5G/AT&T 4G

LTE = LTE

For the logos above the signal bars.

I no longer get any 4G logo at all and started seeing the + after H, for the first time on either my X10 or Ion.

Even my wife's Samsung would show the + but not my Sony's til now.

And I have at&t for a carrier.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bach415:
The LTE replaces the 4G logo if you going from AT&T firmware to other firmware(I.E. LT28H JB FW). It should just show LTE above the bars which means 4G. You can double check if you are actually getting 4G/LTE by doing a speed test. H+ is not 4G. It's just HSPA+. It's two completely different network speeds.
