Had this problem to start with too... cruise over to the LG website, go to the support section for your phone (under phones, android phones, support, downloads) and grab the latest USB drivers (before you tell me you have them, windows 7 doesnt auto update so no.. you wont have the latest and you will need to update) and LG PC suit.

Once i had both of these installed and working fine (there should be NO errors in installation) then you wont have ANY issues at all... im speaking from personal experience with this and after updating everything there will be no problems unless you create them yourself ;)

happy rooting!

Hey, first off I couldnt post this to the actual slim bean rom thread because I am a new member. My problem is that I was initially running slim bean 2.6 till I decided to upgrade to 2.9 today. Well i downloaded the official 2.9.0 rom, slim gapps 2.8 update and the extra addons. I cleared cache and dalvik then I flashed 2.9 and then the addons. When I rebooted the phone just stopped at the slim bean "S" it isnt frozen because the S is flashing, it just wont go past that stage. Can someone please help

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosup:
IIRC, SB moved to 4.1.2 as of 2.7.0 builds.

* SB 2.6.0 = 4.1.1

* SB 2.9.0 = 4.1.2

Instead of dirty flashing, do a full wipe: wipe data/factory reset, cache, dalvik, & format system. Flash SB 2.9.0, slim_gapps (latest full pkg), multi dpi play store, etc.

If you have issues with that, then try to flash the latest CM10 nightly once. Reboot recovery (to update recovery). Do full wipe. Then flash SB 2.9.0.

I've been using SB for a while now and always full wipe between all builds regardless how small the incremental changes. May take a bit longer to re-setup, but (imo) it's much less hastle than trying to reverse engineer potential quirks. Always starting from a clean slate works for me. :D

Do I need to download the md5sum_Slim-T959-2.9.0-OFFICIAL.zip and put it somewhere before I start? Also how do I format system?

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
The md5sum is the checksum to check the integrity of the original file to make sure it it not modified by a third party or corrupted.

To format the /system partition, go to mount & storage in CWM menu.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosup:
You don't need the md5 to flash the rom .zip.

Mounts & Storage » format /system

Depending on the recovery / kernel, you'll want to be extremely careful (& alert) when you make this selection. Some kernels list format /system alphabetically, so it's right next to format /sdcard (which will obviously wipe your scard). While some kernels (like subZero) keep those two items far apart. This is embarrassingly from my own experience (ie. accidentally formatting my own fricken sdcard), so just take your time in that particular part of recovery. :D

Okay Thank You So Much, I was able to update the rom. Thank You again :) :good:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bp328i:
One thing I have never understood about Android is it never comes with full 360 rotation.

So here is a flashable zip that does just that...If you turn your phone upside down the screen will rotate with you. That is, in apps that rotate.

So this is made to work on CleanROM 2.1 (and that is all I have tested it on) but I don't see why it won't work on other ROM's as all the framework-res are based off the same at this point. BUT any mods made to the framework-res.apk in the ROM you're running will be lost. So ask your dev if they made any changes to the framework-res.apk, or just make a backup and flash away...:cool:

If your running a themed ROM like Jelly Bomb then you will most likely lose some of the theming because a lot is changed in the framework-res.apk for themes.

And you should know the drill by now...flash at your own risk...have a backup...

Oh and if you like it hit the thanks button.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rudyrude432:
Can you make a zip to make the home screen and app drawer to do the 360?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bp328i:
That would have to be done through the launcher. I'm running out for a few but when I get home I will pull TouchWiz home apart and see what I can do.

Moving to Themes and Apps as this is modification to a stock App/launcher and doesn't belong in the Android Dev section.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bp328i:
Really??? This is a modification to the framework and has zero to do with the launcher app.

Edit: So basically everything in the Dev section should be moved because they are all modifications to the stock software?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jerdog:
Sorry - you are wrong. You are trying to skirt the rules here, but that rule you quoted (Rule #15) that says "mods" go in Development, is meant for real modifications made to ROMs, kernels, etc. - not tweaks to apps. This is a tweak to an app, the stock launcher to be precise, and as such belongs in Themes and Apps and STAYS here.

You are correct thought even Senior Moderators can make mistakes - and I am not above admitting when wrong. But - that didn't happen in this case and any attempt to try and skirt the rules more will be met with real consequences.

Not sure if im missing a setting somewhere but my WiFi toggles itself back on randomly after i turn it off. I checked all the wifi settings under ADVANCED and everything looks like its in the correct setting...

Network Notification / unchecked

Keep WiFi on during sleep / (Tried both ALWAYS and NEVER)

Check for internet service / Unchecked

WiFi Timer / OFF

I am using Blazer ROM since I got the phone. Anyone having the same problem? It would be no big deal if the wifi radio didn't consume as much battery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
Not sure if Blazer rom has the option or not or if it would affect it turning back on, but is the Connections optimizer feature enabled?

Its under More Settings > Mobile networks > Connections optimizer
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeffokada81:
Sweet, I think that was it. I turned my fonts to 'TINY' and only read about 1/4 of the fine print. If it turns on again, ill just need to go out but buy some sage to rid my house of evil wifi spirits!

Thanks...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gotojanoo:
if i uncheck connection optimizer will it never looks for even lte?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hausman:
I'm guessing "preferred network mode" will select the LTE preference or not. Connections optimizer only refers to WiFi in the help text.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
Haha, your welcome.

I'm pretty sure hausman is right on that, but I'll try it out later today when I go into an lte area and report back with my findings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
After a bit of testing in different 4g spots I can say that the optimizer does not effect 4g at all. And it does indeed only refer to the wifi.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jealousblues:
Ive had a similar issue and im not sure why either!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mccurt29:
Same here on stock rom.. even before I rooted
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] schale01:
Connections optimizer was rolled out to "ensure phones haves the best possible connection without affecting battery life" On older WiMax phones it also does affect 4G. It uses location data and saved WiFi IDs to know when to connect. Sprint likes it because it offloads data onto wifi/4G whenever possible.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
Ah ok good to know. Though I should of probably rephrased my post since it was a reply to gotojanoo to let him know that it does not stop the phone from searching for a lte connection.

Now as CM7 is ready, lets think forward, CM9. I got a CM9 unofficial file for salsa when I was cleaning up my laptop. Anyone who wants the file can give me their email id and please-

This is experimental and for development use. NOT FOR DAY TO DAY USE,

I'm a bit busy with the university so I can't do much lately.

What have you done? do you used CM9 from other phone as base? Recompiled from scratch? Mixed things CM7-CM9?

It's a bit difficult to help without this kind of information otherwise.

And I think it won't work with our kernel.

Does anybody managed to make a rom based on CM9 that at least has a working installer? Because maybe our CWM it's too old.

These are just hypothesis anyway.

But HTC is telling that they might give a kernel. That tech support guy doesn't even know what a binary is! Don't know if they'll give us something or not. Anyways we are working and am sure will make one.

The screen is not a problem..........the resolution is the same

The salsa has the Qualcomm MSM7227T("T" standing turbo perhaps) which is basically just an overclocked MSM7227(Which the wildfire s has)

The first priority is to get the damn thing boot.............we can later focus on the front camera

I may not know much but there shouldnt be much of a difference between the two right?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
you may think there the same, but there are some big differences between them inside.
[HTC Salsa] Darkorn:
Lol what are you ALL saying. We didn't have CM7, I spent two ****ing weeks working on it and understanding everything. It's not perfect but I'm alone except from BigBearEvo's advices and testing.

We don't need any ****ing kernel, there's already a generic kernel and, if you recompile it, it will probably works without any change in code.

We don't have a CM9/10 because nobody is working on it, that's the fact. And by working I mean serious working, you can't simply switch files and hope that miraculously works, it's computer science, not religion.

So if you want to do something useful, read read read read and read and then try until you succeed. Install Linux on your computer, possibly not Ubuntu, Ubuntu is good but you won't learn anything about Unix and Linux because it's made to be easy. And you know why? Because Android it's very similar to Linux.

This is what someone should do:

1. Find a CM9/10 rom that installs fine (it's ok if it doesn't work). -> If it doesn't exist find out why

2. Download Cyanogenmod source AND source of the rom step 1).

3. Recompile a kernel made to works with Android 4.

...

... COMPILING, TESTING, DEBUGGING, SEE WHAT OTHERS HAVE DONE FOR OTHER DEVICES.

...

Repeat until it works everything.

I could do it, but I don't have a computer powerful enough to compile the 4GB android's source. And no, CM7 was easier because we already had a working 2.3 rom (STOCK ROM), we switched some files because they were not so different and then adjusted the kernel. But now, seriously, or someone try the serious way or we won't have EVER android 4.
[HTC Salsa] vigoos:
I completely agree. I'll start the work tomorrow. Btw is an i3 second Gen processor good enough for compiling the source code? Ill try to finish things by 29th this month.

Sent from my HTC Salsa C510e using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
[HTC Salsa] Darkorn:
I3 is fine, it's like an hour of compilation for android (many hours (2-3) for the download if the server it's crowded), and 15 minutes for the kernel.

Probably the best choice is marvel's source, but before that someone should understand why the installer doesn't work.

Anyway, if you managed to have a working installer and a recompiled rom, maybe I could help you with the kernel.
