[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] smokinjoe2122:
Ok, this may be an easy one, but I cannot figure it out for the life of me-

Using ICS Miui, when I go to search something using Google Search (built in app), when it launchers the default browser, it takes me to Google's homepage, as opposed to the actual searched item. Anyone experience this?

This isn't a huge deal, but it makes using the search function a 2 step process.

Any help is appreciated!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Katastrophic:
Okay guys hear me out, sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forums, I'm currently rooted on the stock build I believe, my specs are as follows: Build Number: JROO3C.WW_epad-10.4.2.13-20120907. Android Version: 4.1.1. I rooted to remove bloatware, and whatnot, but now I want to overclock, and it can't be done with the kernal I have I guess, Stock rom doesn't support it, So I'm on a quest to find a working rom for my build that has been tested and working properly, I have the TWRP recovery I think it's called. And if you haven't guessed my device is Asus TF300T. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll be around waiting for a response, so if you need any other question answered or need more info I'll be around, Thanks for all the help.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sib64:
SO your TF300T is unlocked ?

Apparently, you have the TWRP recovery.

And you want a rom that can overclock ?

So you have several roms, but the best you can do, it's to click to my sig > index for the TF300t, and you will find all roms based on stock and others based on Cyanogen.

The best thing that you can do is to read a little, choose 2 or 3 roms that you find interesting, and try one after one (one week per rom) and you will choose the best rom for you. It will be your choice.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Katastrophic:
Yes it's unlocked,and thanks, going to try the Hydro rom I suppose. Are the Cyanogen roms compatible with what I'm running? TWRP and Stock JB?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tamaskan:
Hydro ROM does not have CPU OC, I think jb blue and jb@OC has overclock. Latest CM 10 is compatible with jellybean boot loader and latest TWRP.

Hey guys,

I have a HTC Sensation Vodafone branded and I want to unbrand it. But the problem is, that the S-OFF doesn't work at all! I have the 1.27.00000 HBOOT but no matter how often I try to S-OFF it with Juopunutbear, it just doesn't want to work.

It wouldn't be too bad if I could boot into Android and use the phone again, but nope, it's not working either. Is there any way I can get Android back running or get S-OFF?
[HTC Sensation] Sh0wt1me:
I also had to repeat the wire-trick about 10 times, but then it worked! Just be patient ;)

I read this thread when I was just about to give up..

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27595344&postcount=356

I don't know how you did it, but i guess you did a temp-root - just seach the thread for an un-temp-root and you'll be able to use the phone as normal :)
[HTC Sensation] .TanTien:
No I have unlocked the bootloader. I've tried it for over 1 hour now. Nothing works...
[HTC Sensation] Sh0wt1me:
try to remove the battery for a minute and charge for some time..

so you're stuck at:

"Do not remove sdcard from phone

[HTC Sensation] .TanTien:
Nope. I get this error: Errorcode: 66732337 ErrorMsg: Still sober

[HTC Sensation] .TanTien:
I really hope! I just got this phone for my one s villec2 and got 100€. It would be pretty bad if something wouldn't work.
[HTC Sensation] .TanTien:
Is it possible that it doesn't work with every device?
[HTC Sensation] Sh0wt1me:
haven't heard that, as long as you're really on hboot 1.27.0000 it should work :)

reduce the pause time

0.5 sec tap --- 1.5 sec pause --- 0.5 sec pause again

then tell me when its giving the error ...like x/45 --- i want the x in it

EDIT: also if you want to install custom roms ..you can easily do it even with SON when you have unlocked bootloader :)

look here
[HTC Sensation] .TanTien:
I just realized that the phone turnes itself off after the wire thing.

I don't know what you mean by x/45. The time till it connects?

It worked! Thank you all! I'm so happy now!

System is not booting though :( what can I do?

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/nexus-4-battery-shot-reveals-potential-quality-issues/

This does NOT look promising on top of the already established problems with the hard-/software :rolleyes: Not amused.
[Nexus 4 General] altimax98:
Gotta love these threads complaining about softrware and hardware issues. The Galaxy Nexus is no charmer when it comes to hardware build quality. These are pre-release hardware phones, expect some issues...

But the biggest thing I have to say is that these phones are NOT running final release software. Has any review showed off the lock screen widgets? Have any showed on screen the multiple user switching of the Nexus 10? You can completely expect poor battery life and issues when running pre-release software. Google should have sent final release software and hardware, but it appears they are in a bit of a crunch to get this thing momentum prior to the holiday shopping season.

So before mentioning 'established problems with the hard-softrware issues' wait until final release is upon us.
[Nexus 4 General] ferris2375:
I like how people assume just because it's not running final software that miraculously a software patch will make battery and performance go from crap to awesome. Like Google changed so much from 4.1 to 4.2 that performance and battery just dropped significantly? C'mon Also silly to think that Google would have this phone reviewed with bad software. I was all ready for this phone but am keeping my GS3 and waiting until next year. Stay hopeful for your patches though, you're gonna need them
[Nexus 4 General] yyz71:
For real I haven't seen any reviews on the lock screen widgets:confused: But yet ready to crush to sweet phone:rolleyes: My Gnexus just died last night:( I even tried omap flasher no dice, And no joke I snapped that ***** right in half.. Talk about build quality, UGH!! Went back to my xperia play :crying: For Now:good: So any reviews pictures from haters, Really doesn't affect my decision on getting this device...
[Nexus 4 General] eep2378:
That article is solely about potential hardware issues. Hardware is not likely to be changed since the phone goes on sale next week.
[Nexus 4 General] yahyoh:
yep better to wait for GS4 With Exynos 5450 :)

[Nexus 4 General] eep2378:
Maybe Samsung will document something useful by then ;)
[Nexus 4 General] ferris2375:
Drool. I still can't shake thinking about this damn Nexus 4, but extremely annoyed at the negative press and issues it has not even being released it.
[Nexus 4 General] yahyoh:
i really think nexus 10 with help a lot with exynos 5 development but i really hope sammy will do some documentation and release working platform source

like galaxy s1 and nexus s ;)
[Nexus 4 General] eep2378:
Don't get your hopes up ;) Here's some great reading about the issues CM maintainers have with Sammy :) https://plus.google.com/u/0/101093310520661581786/posts/cdPnNjLAb4F

He'll be updating this periodically.
[Nexus 4 General] wurzelsepp3:
I'm not sure about that, I had high expectations concerning the GS3 and it turned out to be a huge disappointment.

(less Ram compared to the GS2, what a joke).

Until Samsung releases proper documentation Exynos devices are not an option for me anyway.
[Nexus 4 General] umesswitme:
For a budget device I really don't see this as a huge issue of course they had to make some shortcuts to get such a low sell price. I'm still planning on getting the n4 on release day.
[Nexus 4 General] Groof:
Sure is a bit concerning seeing things like this even before release, but hopefully things will be improved upon down the line with revisions and whatnot. Shame, on the outside its such a beautiful device.
[Nexus 4 General] yahyoh:
with JB ram back to 833mb ;)
[Nexus 4 General] Nospin:
Is that a review unit or a prerelease "With Google" version? Doesn't seem to say.

Wait for the device to come out guys. Wait for a proper teardown. Stop freaking.
[Nexus 4 General] Roqu3:
AdamOutler is an awesome hacker but he is also a huge Samsung fanboy (like if it wasn't enough with the apple ones) so I take this article as a very biased opinion, I have a LG P500 since january 2011 and never had hardware issues or reception problems and of course I droped it several times.

[Nexus 4 General] heat361:
I believe the battery problems is purely software related and I expect that because android 4.2 is not finished yet and it will be finished and pushed out by the time the nexus products go up for purchase.
[Nexus 4 General] Ya Mudda:
Not trying to be cheeky or anything, but do you have a picture of the snapped gnex? Sounds interesting.

On topic, I'm just glad the battery isn't soldered to something.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicasoft:
I've read a lot or reviews and post saying that gnex camera is junk... but actually how is it? compare let said to an iphone 4 which is has same 5mp camera? or a SG2? or a Xperia arc? anybody has an idea which phone has a camera similar to the gnex and how bad really is it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fooman123:
how does anything less than awesome = junk? Misstatements and exaggerations are not the good way to start a thread..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicasoft:
And that's why I'm asking... every single thread here and review said that "the camera sux" "the camera is useless" etc... since I dont own one, I was wondering how is compare to cameras that I've own in the past...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lyam23:
I think the camera is great. There may be better, but I'm coming from a droid 1 which had a pretty bad camera. The zero shutter lag is amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KaliKot:
The Camera is decent, not really "bad" by any means but of course it will be bad compared to the new generation of phones like the GS3 or iPhone 5.

Im actually quite surprised sometimes even if the shots are a little grainy. My friend even took a few decent pics in a club with the flash, so it will be good for most needs.

Its probably on par with the iPhone 4 camera. Maybe slightly better than it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
a few of my galaxy nexus photos..

anyone who says that the camera is bad just doesnt know how to use a camera
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jordanishere:
^ Exactly. A camera is only as good as the photographer.

My friend can't use the "awesome" camera on his HTC 1s to save his life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
btw, every one of those locations where these photos were taken, were under 4-7 feet of water monday night due to hurricane sandy :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicasoft:
those pics look really good... if the camera is the same or more efficient than the one on iphone 4, is a good camera too me... I just wanted to be sure before buying this phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kristion:
As a former S2 owner I can say that the picture quality of the Nexus is lower. I don't say that it's junk, but the difference is visible. What I like about he GNexus's camera is the zero shutter lag, it's quite helpfull in some ocassions. If you want good quality pictures use a dedicated camera, a smartphone is a smartphone. The pictures that I take with it are used mainly for Facebook and other social sites, the resolution or quality isn't that important.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sdmark:
Out of curiosity, are you using the stock app? or another? I agree for the most part this phone takes pretty good pictures...yours are excellent though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kristion:
Let's not exagerate. They are abover average, but they can't be compared with the ones taken by an S2, I4... they are of lower quality.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
Hey Simms22

How do you take pictures like that. Mine come out fuzzy. Like it looks good before I take it, and then boom it looks so bad and ugly.

Sometimes I just take a screenshot Cuz that comes out Better then the picture. Why is it better before the actually taking a picture???

--------------------------------------------------

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
stock camera app. but i do have to admit, photography has been a hobby of mine for over two decades. the place where most normal camera phone users dont look at is lighting. taking the right kind of photo for the lighting available, or finding ways to get the kind of lighting thats needed. many times its just a simple matter of tilting the phone at different angles, like sunset photos. when shooting sunset photos i tilt the phone at about 20-40 degrees. if you shoot the photo with the camera phone pointing stright at it, colors get washed out or photos are too dark(except the sun). by tilting the phone up, you get to see all the wonderful colors in the sky. there are lots of little tricks like this that could be learned. also, using a flash in daylight, i do this to bring out bright colors in flowers instead of letting the sun "bleach" the photos with overly bright light. also, very important in camera phones, is cleaning the camera lens cover before shooting. almost no one does this. photos appear slightly blurry or smudged if you dont.

same photo with and without a flash, completely changes the mood...

and a few more, all stock camera :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
I usually never use the flash. I agree with the screenshots solution but never tried that. For example the other night I wanted to take pictures of my lit pumpkins. The image was nice and dark and just showing the glowing faces. Snap a pic and it come out like a deep purple background and nasty. The image on the screen looks great but sucks once it captured it. I'm sure it would do the same thing with any other phone though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
the samoled screen of the gnex is pretty, but misleading. it tends to oversaturate colors and blacks. thats why photos look better on the phone, but not as vivid on other screens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GuestK007:
you do great work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chickentuna:
Gnex camera is not so good on low light. I previously owned a galaxy note and the pics taken from that phone is better at low light. Not that surprising as the gnote is 8mp. Then again i literally suck in taking pictures. Gnex cam is not that good but not that bad either

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cajunlibra:
Hello.

I have posted this in the forums at Android Central and only got one response. I've had my phone since Feb of this year. Since 11/2 there is major lag. No issues on 11/1. Taps on the home screen are continuously being read as long presses. My lock screen is really laggy, as are home screens and most apps. Bad piggies for whatever reason is working just fine. Most other apps including the keyboard are very laggy. It just seems to be very slow to respond to touch all of a sudden. My phone is rooted stock GB. At AC, I was told an app was hogging RAM. I downloaded Memory Useage from the google play store but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I'm still getting that lady after killing and uninstalling apps. The lag is still there with the native launcher so I really don't think it has anything to do with GO Launcher. I used TiB to revert GOL back to the previous version. I also uninstalled GOLocker as well. I've done a soft reset but it didn't help.

Is there a way to see my Play update history so I can see which apps installed that night? I've always had the occasional lag but it wasn't ever really a big deal. This is greatly interfering with my use of the phone. I am lucky to type a word before the keyboard disappears. Low resources makes sense but I just can't figure out what app is hogging them.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm thinking of resting back to unrooted GB to upgrade to stock ICS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
The first app in the my apps list is the most recent one. So start uninstalling from the top.. Now if you had installed an app say 2 months ago, uninstalled it a month ago and then reinstalled it today then it won't show at the top of the list. It will be still at that same spot where it was 2 months ago. So keep in mind if you reinstalled some app.

Also you should uninstall apps from applications in settings so you can clear cache and data for that app. Or you restart after each uninstall.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cajunlibra:
Thanks but my only options are Sort by Size and Sort Alphabetically. Are you talking about the applications list in Settings? Or is there a better place to uninstall? I know I can go into TiB as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
My apps list is in the play store..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cajunlibra:
Thanks. **Slaps forehead**
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cajunlibra:
This is so frustrating. In the Play Store App, my "Installed" list is alphabetical and the "All" list is listed by install order with the most recent at the top regardless of timestamp of update. I cannot see any option for changing the order. Should I just go by the TiB list? It is showing the apps in order of update and lets me clear cache and uninstall the apps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cajunlibra:
Now I have removed all apps updated on 11/2 or overnight from the evening of 11/1. The only one I can't touch is Kies. I have frozen it with TiB but I'm still getting the super heavy lag. What can I do next? Do I need to just reset the whole device now and start from scratch?

This is really frustrating. I love my phone and haven't had it long enough to switch to something else. Are there any tests that I can perform to check on the screen itself?

I have also installed OS Monitor and the top apps using up the CPU are OS Monitor, SYstem, Google Play Movies & TV, Android System, gzip. THe % used varies from 0% up to 26% they may last only a second or two. Is there something wrong with my phone? I feel like I've exhausted finding a resource hog.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
If you have a custom recovery installed then do a nandroid backup and flash a fresh install of something to test it. If its not broke in the test then you can restore tour backup and continue to troubleshoot. Honestly though its easy enough to just start fresh. I do it every few days/weeks on a new rom.

Heck at this point flash something ICS or even JB. I can't think of a reason to ever use a GB rom again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cajunlibra:
Do you have a JB recommendation? I haven't created a nandroid backup because the only one I am aware of with with CWM and I have been told more than once that it isn't reliable on the E4GT so I just completed removed it from my phone. Are there any other methods for getting a nandroid backup?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Paranoid android 2.50. You can make a nandroid backup from el26 kernel with cwm of an pics rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I'm currently using codename, great rom. I've only used my nandroid backups several times but they do work. Always just made my backup in whatever custom recovery I was using at the time. Can't remember what recovery I used on GB. Its been a while. Edit just use the el26 blues mentioned above

When switching between ROMs or experimenting I use SMS backup and restore and call log backup and restore from market. Its nice to have those old texts and call logs sometimes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cajunlibra:
I use SMS Backup cuz I want to save my texts but I don't know if I need to save my call log.

Thanks for the recommendation. Paranoid Android looks pretty cool.

My external SD card is safe right? Does it need to be backed up as well?
