Yeah, maybe it's possible. Isn't here anyone to so that willingly?
[XPERIA X8 General] IdeosDev:
Infact idea is working on the Samsung Galaxy S3 whereby Kexec is loading and selecting the boot from the recovery partition

But then we does need figure out a way to enable the system to boot from different partition.

hell of a work to rewrite script
[XPERIA X8 General] Cancar96:
Somebody should ask nAa and dx,they should know the answer :)
[XPERIA X8 General] sgt. meow:
@all azuzu's SBoot tool will make use of the kexec module. A kernel with a kexec module does not necessarily need an unlocked bootloader. It will (AFAIK) load up the new kernel for debugging over the existing stock kernel. We won't see such a kernel soon but that soon doesn't necessarily mean never.
[XPERIA X8 General] Cancar96:
Can we run 2 kernel om 2 different roms,like multibooting them? That way would be possible..
[XPERIA X8 General] CtrlAltDelIrl:
Huh? Really explain what you mean and give an example if you can.
[XPERIA X8 General] Cancar96:
Nah,bad idea,but cant we simply flash modified kernel via flashtool?
[XPERIA X8 General] CtrlAltDelIrl:
We can if the bootloader is unlocked.. I don't think you understand what the OP is saying though.

He's talking about hijacking the kernel whilst booting and injecting code changes into it.. At least that's what I think!
[XPERIA X8 General] fotak-x:
msm7227 doesnt support multibooting kernels because of that boot.img,we cant find boot.img in our roms.You can multiboot roms
[XPERIA X8 General] Cancar96:
Exactly and then flash it through flashtool like when you were trying to restore bricked phone.:sly:

That ballistic case looks really nice, would you recommended the ballistic or otterbox case for this phone? I have read that people have had case fitting issues with the otterbox. Just curious, thanks in advance.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Linch89:
I have the defender and the case fits fine. The rubber case hangs a little on the corner. I'm in the military and all I've used is otterboxes and they have never let me down
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Skidoo03:
I have both, the commuter and defender. Both of them fit great but I'm interested in trying the ballistic case too. Anybody got one?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] kimba99:
I got the Ballistic SG a few weeks ago for my Dinc4G. I'm loving it ^^ ... sure it add's some bulkiness, but handling is great and so is protection ... AND actually the on/off and volume keys are _easier_ to use with the Ballistic on :laugh: :good: ... it's one of three cases i have, but that's the one I have on most.

regards

PS: the Ballistic SG are fairly cheap on ebay already, quite a steal for ~15bucks. (just a pity that most sellers dun ship across the pond)

Screen Protectors

I'm completely sold on the Great Shield brand dry-application screen protectors. I'm still on screen protector 1 of the three-pack for the Inc 4G. They're durable, easy to apply, and don't exhibit the orange peel effect for reflecting light. If you have trouble with glare, they have an anti-glare variant as well.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] somerandomname1:
In case anyone goes to this thread to buy a case I figure I'd give my little input. I had the otterbox since I've owned the phone. It started to stretch out pretty quickly as soon as I bought it, mostly in the corners. I googled and apparently this is a common issue for otter boxes. Also, the cover for the charging port ripped off and I was never overly aggressive with it so that was frustrating. Anyway, just bought the seidio case and it seems pretty good. Not as bulky as the otter box and I'm sure its quality is cheaper overall / wouldn't protect as well, but I'm happy with it. Looks nicer too. Would recommend.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
CONTACT otterbox about that streching and they will replace it, the replacment is a little stiffer rubber, stays put
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] somerandomname1:
I actually did previously and they sent one no problem...it got lost in the mail....

So at that point I just wanted something new. I think I like this one better anyway not as bulky.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
okey dokey,
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] MJL99:
I really like seidio stuff. It's good quality, but like you mentioned, the protection probably won't be as much as with the big bulky otterbox. I use a modified incredible 2 clip from seidio as a holster for my Inc 4g. It's held up way better than any other clips I've tried. And I've broken quite a few of them.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehelmuth:
I think I may be the one of the few people anywhere who may be in this situation, but thanks to help from Electron and others, my VZW Tab 7.7 actually followed the OTA progression of FD01 -> FH01 -> LP10 to go from a stock-but-rooted HC to a stock non-root ICS.

While I first thought this may be a fortunate turn of events, I now am wondering if this is the case, because I am having trouble finding a way to root it.

To be clear, my current situation is that I am post-ICS, and not rooted.

The root method specified in the 7.7 development forum doesn't seem to work - it fails on the signature check. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1849235), and OTA Rootkeeper seems to be for those who were way smarter than me and caught it ahead of time.

Any suggestions for achieving root, or am I out of luck?

Thanks for any help!

Download necessary files:

Verizon 7.7 LTE drivers: http://electron73.org/XDA/i815/Verizon_Wireless_I815_Galaxy_Tab_USB_Driver_v1_4_7_0.msi

electron73's Odin pack: http://electron73.org/XDA/i815/electron_i815_odin_pack.zip

Root: http://www.mediafire.com/?x481a90591wdw0a

Make a folder on your desktop and extract the files there.

1. Install Verizon 7.7 LTE drivers

2. Put the root zip file on an external SD card, make sure your the SD card is inserted in the tab

3. Power down your tab

4. Boot into Odin mode by pressing power and volume up. Release power while still holding volume up when you see the samsung splash screen. You will be greeted with a warning dialog:

5. Press volume up to accept, you will be in download mode and greeted with the following screen:

6. Open Odin 1.85

7. Load FD01_recovery.tar by clicking the PDA button and selecting the file from the folder you made on your desktop, make sure auto reboot is unchecked.

It is very important that you choose PDA

8. Plug in your tab, your PC will probably install drivers if you have never used Odin and how up under ID:COM. Your tab will show up in Odin. your screen should look like this:

9. If odin looks exactly like the screen above, click start. Odin should display a green Pass! above ID:COM

10. Power down your tab.

11. Boot into recovery, you will see an android with an exclamation point triangle

12. Choose apply update from external storage using the volume keys to navigate.

13. Select Root_SuperSU.0.96.Only-signed.zip

14. Tab will install and reboot.

15. You now have root.

If you want to be completely stock, including ICS recovery, then follow steps 3 - 9 except use the LP01_recovery.tar instead of FD01_recovery.tar, then reboot your tab. thats it !

P.S electron i linked to your files, i hopw thats ok :P
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehelmuth:
If that is what is required I may be in a bad way.

Stupid VZW has not provided this variant with any stock firmware download - no HC and no ICS.

In my short-sightedness I didn't think to make a nandroid or CWM because up to now, I can't use any non-stock roms - I need the LTE as a part of the tablet.

Drat and double drat.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gilbot:
It should be easy to root your stock ics tab:

1. Download the root zip, place on external SD card in your tab

2. Put your tab in download mode, connect tab to pc and flash stock Honeycomb e3 recovery via PDA button in odin. Be sure to untick "auto-reboot" option.

3. Once odin finishes with a "Pass!" Power down your tab by holding power.

4. Boot into recovery by holding power+volume up, let go of the power button when the samsung logo appears while still holding volume up.

5. flash the root zip from external sd card in recovery.

6. You should be rooted now.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehelmuth:
For Step 2 - the stock HC e3 recovery part - is this a file that I download from somewhere or is this something that I would (should) have at hand?

Sorry to be noobish, but I want to be sure I don't do something irreversible here...

Thanks for the help!

eh
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bill9001:
Followed the steps and it worked. Rooted the LP11 ROM by flashing the FD01 recovery and then flashing the Select Root_SuperSU.0.96.Only-signed.zip from recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NRGZ28:
Stickied this as it took me quite a long time to find. This is VERY useful for people with the Verizon model and stock ICS.

I appreciate any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bhags8:
Hi, I was curious if other owners have a clicky noise when they press on their battery cover? Its really irritating. I took off my battery cover to see what the problem was and found out its either a loose screw or just the design itself. If I touch anywhere in the "RED" location of the picture I will hear a popping/clicking noise. I was thinking I might need to tighten one of the two "GREEN" screws. But I dont have a small enough screwdriver. Just curious if anyone else noticed this? If Im the only one I was going to pick up a Glasses Repair Kit.

Thanks for any response.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryno77:
I have no noise when I press on that spot...or any other spot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apacseven:
You are not alone on this. Most people dont see it until the back cover has been removed several times. Mine started doing it after removing it about half a dozen times. The most common and simple suggestion to fix it is to take a post it note type piece of paper, cut it down to size to fit under the cover where the noise is originating at (where you are touching it to produce the sound). If it doesnt work, try it again. My phone is almost completely silent now. Hope this helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bhags8:
Thank you very much. I'll give it a try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mouf32:
My GNex did that directly under the camera cut out on my battery cover. I got the OEM Samsung extended battery and that fixed it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dogredwing1:
Mine creaks by the charging port:crying:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apacseven:
Give the slip of paper trick a shot. I know its a dirty solution, but it sure beats hearing that creak all the time and being reminded about it (and its also free).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
Mine did that too but it was on the top right hand corner if the screen is facing you. I replaced the back cover with the Samsung flip cover and it eliminated the noise for me. It also made the camera recessed into the back cover which I was very happy about. Maybe it will keep it from getting scratched so easily.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nim6us:
So two questions.. how did my phone get unrooted? And more importantly how do I root it safely again? I was looking at the auto-root tool and it says in the instructions it's not for newer versions. That's why I ask what's the safest way to root again, thanks guys!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bannjio:
What exactly did you flash on? Sounds like you flashed a non rooted fi03. Do you want to just have rooted fi03?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nim6us:
I'm running ICS 4.0.4 I had FH13 and I was rooted, I flashed to the FI03 version and all the sudden I was trying to run a rooted app and it said my phone wasn't rooted?! So yeah wondering if that's just a side effect of flashing, and again the safest way to get it rooted again.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zkaar:
Hello, recently I've tried to install clockwork recovery in my Galaxy S (I9000B), so I've downloaded ODIN and all the other tools and drivers. But the USB on my phone wasn't working, and it was the phone, I've tried different drivers on different computers and the same result, "The USB device was not recognized". So I've downloaded on play market the Busybox, in hope of getting something done. After installing it, busybox asked to reboot phone, so I did it, and the problem started, the phone is stuck on the booting animation, that one showing the phone model. I can still acess the download mode and the stock recovery, but can't connect to PC to flash via ODIN, and external SD is not possible aswell. I've already tried to wipe dalvik cache and data, but nothing. What do I do?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xsenman:
try a a solution from My Android Solutions

But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.

Most of all i9000B is not compatible with i9000 ROMS so make sure you only use i9000B ROMS
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zkaar:
Yeah, I've already tried that, but stays the same. I never got the chance to flash a custom rom because of the malfunctioning phone USB. There's nothing I can do, or there is something that I don't know

[G2 and Desire Z General] Волк:
This is the general discussion/Q&A/"wtf is this?"/"what good does this do me?" thread. Below is a general description of The Nullifier and the Q&A for it. This being the general thread for the AIO wipe tool, general questions about it are welcome.

Link to thread: Vision AIO Wipe Tool

The Nullifier.

This uses a special command in combination with a special file to overwrite the internal partitions with 0's, hence "Null" for 0 and "-ifier" for the fact that it does the action of the root word to something else. It also formats all the partitions afterward and checks for, and repairs any errors on them, as it can.

Q&A Section

Nullifier Q and A:

Q: Why not just format everything?

A: Because a format isn't intended to erase data, though, to a degree, does so. This script is intended to and will wipe out the data and leave a clean set of partitions for a ROM to be installed to.

Q: (Submitted by Cargohook) Would it be idiotic or fruitless to run this and then restore a nandroid backup? I mean, would that defeat the purpose?

A: I highly doubt it would be a waste of your time. On an educated hunch, when you restore a nandroid all CWM does is format the partitions then load the data from the nandroid to those partitions; back to square 1 with old data being left behind. The only thing to say is that if there is something such as bugged settings, or file corruption, those things will be present in the nandroid itself.

Q: Why don't I get a message about formatting /boot?

A: Because it doesn't format /boot. Why? In testing I found that it doesn't need it. It's all a matter of how Android uses boot.img and how it's copied.

Q: Does this wipe internal or external SD? (added because it keeps getting asked)

A: In a word, no.

Q: Will using this cause nand-failure or make my phone unusable if used too much?

A: I first developed this in March, I have used it many many times and I have no problems. Some people want to get up on a soap box and declare that it will. Overground was kind enough to step in and offer an unbiased opinon here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25257903&postcount=327

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
I've been a phone enthusiast for a long time. I noticed something strange with my Galaxy Nexus that I forgot about. I seen an iPhone do this and Windows Mobile does it too... but not android.

The screen backlight idle time vs turn off.

When the screens on, why not kill the backlight (or ultra dim for amoleds) after 15 seconds and then turn off the screen after like 30 seconds or something.

Usually in Windows Mobile, these were adjustable to your liking.

Why don't androids do this? The screen just cuts out and there is only 1 timer. To save battery I use 15s but once it turns off you have to unlock the damn phone again. This makes reading long paragraphs and emails frustrating.

Why not also have the lock screen NOT lock when the screen idles off... but rather a timer like 2min... UNLESS you manually hit the power button.

I never really noticed this until I got my N7 with a case that makes the power button awkward to reach. I have its screen idle off timer set to 2min.

I think it would be great to implement this into Android. Hope everyone follows what I'm trying to describe. And if your planning on posting anything along the lines of "well get an iTurd or Windoze" then just exit and go elsewhere. This is a serious discussion of the possibilities.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
My phone dims quite a bit before it shuts off the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leppo:
I don't know about the other things, but there is in fact the ability to have the screen not lock immediately after it turns off. Set the timer in the Security menu.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gokpog:
If you use any other screen lock but "slide" you can adjust the time it'll take to really "lock" the phone. There is an option in the security settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leppo:
welcome to nine minutes prior to your post
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Lol. Smdh. We should change smartphone to phonesmart.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gokpog:
Welcome to not hitting f5 every second, douche...

If I had seen your post I may not have bothered answering. Not sure why you'd feel the need to comment on someone saying the same as you, particularly since my post includes one very important additional information. This option is NOT available when you use the standard "slide to unlock" setting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leppo:
awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyco2008:
To be fair, OP wants the screen to lock if manually shut off, and to automatically lock after a certain period of time if the screen is automatically shut off as per the timer.

So technically no one's right!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
True... but also to dim before turning off.

My screen just shuts off after 15seconds. Same on my N7 after 2 minutes. Why isn't there a period when the backlight/screen dims before turning off.

For example:

After 10s - Dims to lowest brightness.

After 30s - Screen turns off.

After 1min - Phone locks.

P.S. I just disable my lock screen. Its refreshing to not have to swipe it all the time. Unless you have a security pin or FaceUnlock, a typical swipe is pretty pointless. With the power button on the side, I doubt well be unlocking it accidentally. The chances of turning on the phone, somehow hitting phone, and somehow navigating and selecting a contact is so slim.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
I have my setting at 30 seconds.

After 20 seconds the screen dims and at 30 it turns off.

Its always had this behavior. On every android phone I've had.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rygran87:
+1 My screen dims before shutting off as well. If I'm reading or something and I see the screen dim, I know to give it a tap so it doesn't turn off. Ever since I had my Samsung Moment...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I already mentioned that mine did this, but I have always wanted to do a +1 so...

+1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Yep mine too while reading. As stated above when I see the screen dim I have to tap it from sleeping.

Also, with most custom ROMs (not sure about stock) in screen security or lock screen settings you can generally set 1) how long until the screen turns off 2) how long the phone will stay unlocked after the screen has gone off and 3) whether or not pressing the power button immediately locks the phone or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Hmmm. Well I guess since I have mine set to 15s it just shuts off. My N7 runs EOS nightlies and it doesn't dim either with a 2min setting.

It would be nice to have a dimmer timer though to control the dim/sleep differences.

What rom is that because I'm on the latest Liquid and there aren't any options like that in the security settings.

[NM]

They are there just not for slide or none. Kinda weird.

30s does dim after 20s but barely. Seems the iPhone does this sooner, like 10s and dims much much more. I'm just thinking that with a big power hungry display, it would be beneficial to tweak these timers to minimize wasteful unused screen-on time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
The ROM in those screenshots is Dark Paranoid Android. Sorry, should have mentioned that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kevindee:
If you go to the Display settings, then Automatic backlight, you can check "use custom" which then allows you to set the screen dim level. Its default is 20, but you can set it to 1 if you really want to see it dim.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Maybe its app specific? My N7 dims too, but NOT if Google Books is open and active.
