[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aldokazer:
First, just try another ROM.

If that doesn't work, then do a factory reset and then try it.

If you are not able to boot to recovery, then download Odin, an official firmware from sammobile.com, and flash it through download mode. I am going to sleep,so Google it if u don't know how to flash through odin!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
you can get a rescue kit from My Android Collections and or 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.

[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Error 155 means that the bootloader is still unlocked. You need to relock it in order to install the downgrade RUU.

Boot into fastboot and write in the Terminal where fastboot is located:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yyz71:
Sony can keep there crap :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Timmyfoxeh:
Excuse me, but I don't if it looks oh so fake.

My point was that this turns out to be true and Sony will release a Nexus it will certainly be interesting. I believe Sony has the best cameras amongst Android phones and are one of the biggest supporters of AOSP. Not to mention they have been one of the most innovative and consumer-friendly Android handset manufacturers for 2 years now.

Did I mention the Xperia S is said to have one of the sharpest screens to date?

Tl;dr: I just said a possible Sony Nexus could be interesting regardless of how fake or real those images look.

And for those saying Sony is crap, what's so bad about them? For sure my Alpha a77 DSLT is quite amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Ah yes....Android 4.2 will have the feature of not having text under icons, because it is more clear that way. :D

Check the play store icon on the front screen of the photochop.

Or the missing pixels from the left side bezel.

I don't think it matters if Sony is interested or not. I feel fairly certain that the Nexus builder goes to lowest bidder, and Sony doesn't know the meaning of that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hero_Guy:
I know a lot of us want a Sony Nexus but c'mon, it looks pretty fake and even if it isn't it looks pretty ugly IMO.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
Makes no difference to me if it's real or fake, I will not be buying a Sony phone in the foreseeable future.

How is Sony one of AOSP biggest supporters?

Sony the most innovative handset manufacturer? Now you're just making stuff up.

It's kind of hard to believe it's better than SAMOLED, but I haven't had one in hand.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I agree the more AOSP the better, and if Sony or whoever wants to put AOSP on the Xperia S that is a step in the right direction.

I guess I'm not aware of any contributions to AOSP by Sony, I thought AOSP was maintained by Google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Maintained by Google, yes. However they also accept community contributions.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] speedyink:
Wow, someone has a hate-on for Sony..

Since people have already tackled the AOSP portion..

Innovation; Xperia Play (Yes, it WAS a kick ass phone, the only phone I didn't want to upgrade from even when newer better phones were out)

XLoud software - Made my Xperia Play speakers blow the socks off ALL other phones

Bravia Engine - Adds more punch to photos and videos

Xperia Android Software such as Walkman, Albums, Track id etc. - Sony has made some of the best looking and performing software I've seen on an Android device. And hey, most of it works on other phones ie. not alot of it is tied to framework like other brands' apps.

Xperia S screen: yes, it will lack the Contrast and Saturation punch of SAMOLED that we all know and love, but Sony's panels are amazingly crisp and clear. They always seem to look like a higher resolution than they actual are, pixels seem to melt together rather than being individual dots (no aliasing at all it seems). Not to mention at 342 PPI that screen is one of the highest densities on the market. Throw the Bravia engine into the mix and you got a phone with one damn good looking screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Timmyfoxeh:
Your choice

I believe they assisted CM in adding custom rom support for their devices, they helped with drivers and such. They also was said to experiment with a project of turning one of their existing devices into a pure vanilla (like nexus) device, not to mention they've done a lot of contributions to get beginners started in the world of AOSP.

Subjective of course, but have you seen their designs? Especially the tablets. Whilst everyone else looks somewhat similar with some differences, Sony imo is the ones that differentiates the most. Also pre-JB I believe they had the smoothest stock launcher.

Actually yes, but it's not my words, just various users and reviewers. It's got a 342 PPI 720p screen with a full RGB matrix (as opposed to the 315 PPI with a pentile matrix of the Gnex). In comparison the retina display of the iphone 4 and up is a 640p RGB display with 326 PPI. If you've ever seen the HTC One X display, the Xperia S looks better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Just a small correction. CM is not AOSP, and AOSP is not CM. They get all sorts of irritated when you ask for CM help in the Android-Building group. Sony does contribute to AOSP gerrit though. I believe mostly in regards to the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Timmyfoxeh:
I know, but my point is I believe they've contributed to help get custom ROM's made for their devices, and I believe CM was the target since CM is so big.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaxFTW:
What the hell is this?

Firstly, I want to tell you that I am not good at photoshop. I simply don't like it. Anyway, I had already made unique icons (which weren't best, btw :D), but I deleted them by mistake and cleaned the bin (moron). Could any good graphics creator make some good icons for Jelly Sandwich, please? I mean for those which are in system/app and display in app drawer defaultly (I'll list them below) only. Of course if someone makes them, I'll give credits and tell people to click "thanks" ;).

So... Here are the apps:

SEMC Album (from Xperia T/S)

Clock and alarms (also from Xperia T/S)

Album 3D

Camera

Camera 3D

Calculator

Browser

Downloaded files

Connected devices (DLNA app)

Calendar

OTA Updater

No Frills CPU (yeah Aroma options apps too - it will look just great)

Root Browser Lite

Quick Panel Settings

Settings

SuperUser

SuperSU

Phone/Dialer

Messages

Google Search

Xperia Gallery

Walkman V7.5 by ThillinaC

Walkman with Clearbass

Play Store

Timescape

Link2SD

Google Talk

Titanium Backup

SEMC Notes

Radio

Sim Tool Kit (STK)

Well, this list isn't short, but I would really appreciate if someone designs some great icons for Jelly Sandwich.

Tips:

-I would like the icons to be estetic, simple, and beautiful. And please, don't make them like this:

;)

-Square shaped icons will fit Jelly Sandwich the best way, I think :)

-If you make icons - PM me with "##@@JS ICONS@@##" message

-Just send me png/jpg files - I can decompile apks by myself + I don't want to lose some apps' modifications inside

-I want the icons to create one compact and unique Jelly Sandwich user experience. Like in MIUI - all the icons perfectly fit the atmosphere of the ROM :)

-I like icons from ThillinaC's Xperia Pureness ROM

I really appreciate good graphics creators' work. It's not easy to make something what makes people dish into seats. For example that banner:

I was just wondering how imnuts kernel is coming along. Anyone have any info?
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I haven't heard anything.

If anyone with the knowledge of how to unpack and repack stock kernels on this phone would like, I can help you get init.d working. I might be able to get ext4 support working as well, but I'll have to do a little research on that. They're both relatively simple updates to the ramdisk. I won't be able to offer much more than that, but it is more than you have know.

I can't offer a lot of guidance on the process needed to unpack and repack the kernel...I dev on the Rezound, but I work from source, so I don't have the stuff I'd need to do a repack. On a good day, I don't know enough to do any serious kernel work, but I'm comfortable enough with the ramdisk to make those edits.

If anyone wants to hit me up for that, let me know. I can get you the init.d stuff quickly, but I'll need a little lead time to research the ext4 mounts.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clouds5:
So hi guys! :)

I have a question regarding the location service of JB. I'm talking about the google location service over wireless connection - not gps.

I have two devices - both running jelly bean. I have Google now completely disabled also i ticked off location history, i simply want to use location for stuff like weather apps and maps, so i see where i am when i open the map.

I have this feature enabled since i was running Froyo on my Desire back in the days :) And it was never an issue in terms of battery drain.

But now its just aweful. On both my devices i can basically DOUBLE the standby time when i disable the location service... And if i check BetterBatteryStats app it always places location services in first place for wakelocks.

Here comes the question: Is this a general Bug on Jelly Bean or is there a way to make it behave like it did on ICS or GB? I dont need it to update every 1min or whatever it does to drain my battery... Once every hour is more than sufficient! Are there settings for this somewhere?

See Screenshot on how it looks like on my Transformer prime. For my SGS III this would show up as Android-System, but its the same thing in BetterBatteryStats.

cheers!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkcloud2973:
I have been wondering the same thing. What I don't understand is why the drain is so bad even on Wifi. I don't know much about coding, but it seems like there should be no reason to check your location as long as you are on a Wifi network because obviously you haven't moved far since you are still connected. I have over 30 minutes held awake by maps and never left my Wifi network.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onexuan:
Map applications are the most power drain , it must open the wireless network and GPS,They are all power consumption
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clouds5:
Well at least i'm not alone :) anyway i disabled the location services on my devices for the moment and only enable them when i need it. Big improvement in standby drain! Its a workaround but no solution...

cheers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onexuan:
Maybe you can use One Power Guard from android play shop, can help you solve the standby problem.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woodspoon:
clouds5, did you ever find a permanent solution better than to turn on location services when needed? Your op describes my situation perfectly (except with sgs ii, jb) and I now only tick on location services right before I fire up maps/navigation/etc. Makes a huge difference in the amount of standby time, but I'm looking for a more satisfying solution.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dhow76:
I'm interested in a few things but haven't been able to find media hub to download on the cm10 ROM.

Does anyone know if it's possible and if so where to find media hub for download?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
It may require the touchwiz framework. Not for sure on that though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ronin4740:
So... if you look around enough you'll find a post or two with mediahub.apk linked to them. You can install it and it will run... but it will also crash on login, possibly because you also won't have the samsung login app. So, you could download a stock rom, unzip it and find the Samsung login apk (sorry, dunno what it's called), install it and see if Media Hub will run...

Once you have it running and you login you'll then undoubtedly try to play something like... The Avengers. This will fail to unlock as ALL of the backend encrypted video playback stuff is missing in CM10. I wouldn't begin to know how to suggest putting the DRM video playback stuff back into CM10. But, if you did, then it wouldn't be CM10 - it'd have proprietary, non-open source software in it. And that kind of defeats the purpose of CM10

What you could do is to do a full Nandroid backup of CM10 and of the Stock ROM and restore/run whichever you need based on your situation. Crappy solution but I don't think there's a better one which will guarantee you full, functional Media Hub.

[Asus Transformer TF700] spinaldex:
Folks,

My TF700, along with a few others I've seen post here, has been increasingly sluggish under JB compared to ICS, regardless of how many cold boots and complete resets are performed. In addition, I get frequent white screen crashes and complete reboots that happen under heavy use.

So, with that said, here are my questions from those of you with some experience:

1. Should we expect an update from the manufacturer that will address all of this within a short (month?) period of time?

2. Since it's official that CM will provide an "official" port to the TF700, how long does it usually take them to provide a fairly feature rich one (GPS, Microphone, etc support unlike the unofficial port in the development forums)?

3. If both #1 & #2 are >1 month, can you recommend a solution that provides all tablet features? The other JB builds I saw do not provide full features from what I could see, correct?

Thank you for any answers you can provide.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tbtaf:
If you are unlocked, you can always downgrade to ICS .30, or a custom Rom like cleanrom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] paddycr:
1. ASUS are not quick. Given past performance I don't think there is a chance of seeing an update that will successfully deal with the sluggishness issues.

2. I don't think it will be too long until the first official CM10 builds are released (days/weeks rather than weeks/months). Looking at where they are in development at present I expect the initial releases to be pretty complete. However, until they are released and tested you never know what problems and bugs may be encountered.

3. Your best bet at the moment is CleanROM - its the stock rom with all the bloat removed and some other tweaks to improve performance. Having tried the stock JB release and CleanROM I will say that the performance of CleanROM is way better.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Reboots, white screens and freezes are not normal for this or any tablet.

Firmwares and roms won't fix this. Send it back and get one that functions properly.
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
actually, reboots and freezes are quite normal. There have been several posts about it since this device launched. I was a victim of this as well. Made me want to get rid of it. but after rooting and installing cleanrom, i have not had any issues.

Yes, the rom gets rid of the bloat, but with the new update, you have the option of keeping the bloat that you may want. I highly recommend rooting and installing this rom. It will feel like you purchased a new device.
