I don't want boot animations, just the workspace ones. I've tried apex but it runs slow on my device. I'll just stick with stock launcher. Thanks anyways.
[General Questions and Answers] LeoRex:
I got a Galaxy Stellar a couple of weeks ago... and I decided to root the phone this week. No ROMs, no unlocks, just a simple root using the Root Debug FS kit. Judging by the looks of things, the debugfs file it used was based on the Galaxy S3. Problem is, I didn't do any backups (new to Android, jumped the gun a bit). Rooting the phone went perfect, no issues and apps that need root access get it without issue, but I realized AFTER the fact that I don't know how to back it out. Stupid me thought "Well, it must be as simple to unroot as it was to root, right?"

The build on the phone is VRALH2 (ICS).

I don't have issues now, but if a OTA update bombs or I have to RMA the thing and not worry about them throwing it back in my face with a voided warranty... How would I go about backing it out and what are the ramifications of doing so (do I lose my config? Apps?)

Looking around, it might be too new a phone for end-user support like this... at least I haven't found anyone saying "Hey, unroot the Stellar this way".
[Motorola Droid X2] Zicamox:
EDIT: I fixed this by wiping the phone and SBF'ing back to 2.3.4, and going from there. Disregard this thread

Alright so, I have my phone rooted, BSR installed, made a recovery, went into recovery mode and went to install the cm10 zip. Once I install the zip, this is the status log:

I'm having the same problem, and am a complete noob to this stuff. When I SBF to 2.3.4 do I have to install a new bootstrap?
[Motorola Droid X2] nvminh91:
Can you please clarify how you solved this problem?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeastglasser:
So chances are you haven't seen me, I'm relatively new to the N1 forums, but not new to hacking/modding (had an Evo 3D before this). I just grabbed this off of Gazelle for a fair price, and supposedly it was fully working.

The N1 had come rooted and running OxygeN1 ROM and everything worked perfectly fine, except for the fact that it doesn't seem to want to find any wifi signals.

Now I'm in the process of selling my Evo 3D, but I haven't sold it yet, and it still connects to wifi (shows I have a valid signal, two bars, etc.), however when I turn wifi on my shiny semi new N1, it supposedly scans, but doesn't pick up the fact that there are any wifi signals around. This is a bit problematic, as the SIM card I bought for it is still being shipped. In other words, when my 3D is gone I'll essentially be without a phone until I can activate it on T-Mobile.

So I suppose the main point of this is, why isn't my N1 connecting to wifi? Any ideas? (router is a,b,g,n compatible by the way, so it can't be that it only fires off "n" signals)

Or perhaps a method to revert it back to 100% stock to see if it works on that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taodan:
Have you tried to flash a different ROM or reboot your router? Or tried the WifiFix app?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeastglasser:
I've tried the router one, I have not yet flashed another ROM (I'd like to learn a bit more about the device first) although I have done a factory reset.

I have not however, tried the wifix app... I'll have to try that.

EDIT: I tried Wifi Fixer, but it still wouldn't connect.

EDIT2: Just tried this ROM, and it still won't connect. Any other ideas?

hi i'm looking to overclock my sprint epic 4g cpu up to 1.8ghz and also the gpu to 300mahz and 72hz refresh rate

on either cyanogenmod 7 or 10

what kernel and ROM and CPU/GPU overclocking apps should I use with voltage control and what (safe) voltages should I try for the cpu and gpu ARM and Internal voltages (what build number do I need for cm 7 or 10 (either stable or nightly)

also I noticed that the slide out keyboard shift and function keys don't work on cyanogenmod 10 stable build not sure about a nightly build

I'd like to fix the keyboard too

i'd like to be able to turn the boot logo on and off and possibly change it to a different one and also add a boot up sound to the logo

should I use the franko or samurai or maybe a different kernel ?

what modem should I use for max speed (EL30 FC09 FC19 or Nexus LF2 K2 ?) and compatible rom

I know how to install everything just need advice

If all of the above isn't possible at least I'd like to get the CPU to the highest possible speed past 1.2 ghz if possible most of all and not have random reboots or lockups or sleep of death and woking keyboard and least amount of bugs in the rom

Thank you so much in advance for any advice :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pacorocko:
Do your shift and Fn keys work if you hold them down when using them? Kind of like the way you would use them on a PC keyboard?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffreyjicha:
Last thing I know of that had what you're looking for is CM9 with Samurai Kernel. The processor clocks to 1.5 Ghz and I believe the gpu is overclocked to 400Mhz. Idk what the refresh rate for the screen is, but that combo would probably be the closest to what you're looking for
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubCool:
I used it before, it really messed up my phone. :(

glad to hear/see any follow ups.

using CM10.1 overclocked.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
^^^^this... there is no franco kernel here, that's for the epic touch... nobody has been able to overclock this phone past 1.6 Ghz... samurai had 1.6 at one point, but it was removed because there were stability issues with most phones trying to overclock that high... samurai has always been my favorite kernel from tw gb roms all the way to cm9... sadly development stopped when earthbound upgraded and there is no samurai kernel for cm10 or 10.1... everybodies phone is different and handles overclocking differently... best bet is to just keep trying combinations until you find your perfect match...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmsomb:
I don think you can get what you're looking for . the answers provided should be enough to tell you that this phone can't be oc'ed that much
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubCool:
Um- the responses tell me its capable..

HOw do you individually OC the GPU?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Not possible on cm10... with cm7 you'll have to dig around and search for samurai kernel...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
I have a link to the CM9 kernel that goes to 1.5Ghz.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubCool:
I have used it on CM9, and got it to 1.4 comfortably, but the kernel itself was quarky as hell. The battery died when unclocked and- just all in all at bad kernel.

im curious on what he did to make it do that though. Was it an app he combined into the kernel? Did he expand something?

Technically- OC"ing is just like any normal OC. INcrease the multiplier or frequency and then manipulate the voltage to handle the work. But- THe couple app i foudn that do that- like uh... setcpu, targek or something all arent supported by our rom/kernel/ something. Its rather frustrating.

With the Packman ROM im using, he combined the Performance control into the rom, and you can actually change the voltages- but.. i cant make it go faster.

TO go on with that- i still cant find a way to OC the GPU. i see people saying they got it up to 400mhz. or something. But- HOW!? an app? Kernel again!? heck, i dont even know what the stock settins are. :/
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
GPU overclocking is achieved in the kernel.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
1. He did it by being a kernel master... 2. they aren't supported because of the kernel you're using. 3. And again, the kernel you're using. The only way to overclock the gpu is with the samurai kernel.

4. And most importantly, for everything you want out of a kernel, it's about time to learn Linux and build your own kernel...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
Aww man I miss Samurai's 400MHz GPU OC... But the Voodoo defaults there is VERY terrible... Just why isn't there a kernel with ONLY GPU OC (i.e. no CPU OC up to like 1.4GHz (I think games depend more badly on GPU) and no Voodoo and such)... :(

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Yes, for those looking for an easy way out, it's not going to happen. Learn to make a kernel then learn how to manipulate the settings. If it was easy then everyone would be doing it. No one has any other spoon fed answers.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DynamicN:
I think not having an easy way out may be the definition of xda-developers. Forget where I read it but it's about the journey rather than the destination, which I know doesn't hold true for every one but I know it does for me.
[HTC Droid DNA] BigRed35m:
I was wondering, is there any way to hide the files that are placed on the "sd card" that are placed there by Android/Any other apps. I basically only want to see the folders that I make/put in there, and hide the ones that I don't use. Thnx in advanced :)
[HTC Droid DNA] paulguy:
Seeing as it's vfat, you could maybe try setting the hidden flag, but I'm pretty sure it'd just be ignored.. and I don't think you can even really set it under linux/android. So yeah probably not much you can do, as hidden files are usually prefixed with a period. You might already have a couple hidden files on your SD card. However if you add the period to the files you want to hide, the programs looking for them won't find them because they're a different name.

Sorry I couldn't really help you but I guess you learned something, heh. Some file managers might have some kind of file hiding feature.
[HTC Droid DNA] beberobu:

Only way to see the folder is with root explorer or another file manager.

Yup, prefixing a folder name with a (dot) "." is Linux for a hidden folder - ".hideme".
[HTC Droid DNA] jonah1234:
Hiding the pron?

Sent from my HTC Droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] Mazer_R:
Putting a period "." in front of the folder will mark the folder as hidden by Linux standards, but be warned that the root user can see hidden folders by default. So, any app in the /system/app folder or any app with root privileges that doesn't follow the Linux hidden folder convention will see it and use it as a normal folder.

[HTC Droid DNA] CastleBravo:
If you just need to hide files from the gallery/music player adding a file called ".nomedia" will prevent most apps from displaying it.
[HTC Droid DNA] BigRed35m:
I guess the main reason that I was asking if there is an easy way to hide folders is because I don't particularly like looking through a longer list of folders than necessary when finding the folder I want to go through.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Garnerj013:
What bugs have you noticed on your device?

I have noticed 2. The first was with the camera on smile detection. It automatically zooms out, and will not zoom back in. Any time I tried, it would just go back to full zoom. That was not something that really bothered me. The second, I think, had to do with a hardware issue.

After a little over a week, I started to have a really crappy signal. My girlfriend has an identical phone, and she had a better signal than me when our phones were side by side. She would even have a 4G signal when I was stuck without even 3G. Fortunately, the store replaced my phone. I have yet to notice any bugs on this device. If I do, I'll post them here.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redhonker:
I've installed DRH JB 4.1 successfully 2 months ago. It has been running nicely since then. Today I decided to upgrade the ADW launcher EX. It all went fine.

I left the tablet on the table. A few minutes later, I came back to find it remains off. I tried to press power button for a few seconds, w/ or w/o holding + or - down. Nothing happens. Plug in the power, nothing.

I connect it to my PC (did that as a step to install DRH JB 4.1). But nothing happens either.

What can I do now? Is it completely dead?

Thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redhonker:
I've cracked open the back and press the reset the button. It boots up but won't respond to touch screen, soft button or hard buttons. I reset it a few times and about to give up. Then I put the back cover half-on (not snapped), it somehow worked. It responds to hard button, soft buttons and touch screen.

I felt lucky but want to try more. So I reboot it. Now, it only respond to the hard buttons, but not soft buttons or touch screen. Feeling I no longer need the reset the button, I snapped the back cover on. Now it goes dead again.

Has anyone seen this before? Any loose end?

Thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camman85:
I just had this happen to my tablet today. Installed CWM 5.0.5 (for BL 1.2), installed the new Paranoid Android ROM played with it for a few minutes, went back to install market, which worked fine, logged in to start downloading apps. Played some angry birds, exited, admired the tab for a few seconds, turned off the screen, and then set it down. plugged in to charger. unlocked screen, made sure apps downloaded, turned off screen again, set down.

10 minutes later, picked it up, tried turning on the screen and all I got was black. will not respond to any button presses or anything I do. I would rather not crack open the case as I just purchased it, but will do so if that is the only thing aside from sending it in for repair.

Hope someone has some advice or help. Did search the forums for other ideas on what to do, but it seems like the only way to make it wake up is the hard reset. Someone please prove me wrong! :silly:
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nobe1976:
What you are having is a well known SOD that is caused by the Kernel we are using for right now. There are other options besides cracking the case and pressing the internal reset button. You can let the device drain its battery on its own. The best way I know of is to connect something that charges USB to the tablet so that the tablets power will die a lot quicker, MP3 player, Cell Phone or anything that can use a good charging up would be the quickest route. Then after plugging in almost everything and making sure that the battery is fully drained on the G tablet press and hold down the power button just to be safe and discharge what ever is left. Charge the Gtablet fully from red to green and then boot it back up and all will be good. Its a long process to take, but if you don't wish to open it up and drill the hole this is the alternative way of doing so. :cool:
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Yup. That's most likely it. Loose ends. Check the cables going to the digitizer and the soft buttons.

For your problem, start reading from this post onwards. Pics are here.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redhonker:
I decided to open gTablet again. This time, things just come back to normal. I checked every wire and connector visible, but can't find anything loose. I am afraid to snap the back cover back so I am leaving it loose and put it back to the case. My plan is to drill a hole on the back cover later to get access to the reset button. But I doubt whether that will really help.

I am checking the pictures against mine. All looks normal. Checked every visible wire and connector. Nothing seems to be loose.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
The symptoms point to a hardware problem. A visual inspection might not be enough.

Try pulling all the relevant cables out completely (at both ends), then plugging them back in again.

Then do a "Key Test" in CWM (under "advanced"). Post the key codes along with the keys pressed.

If all the keys don't show up, then get me a dmesg output:

C:\> [B]adb shell dmesg > dmesg.txt[/B]

You should also check that the cables don't have any breaks in them (flex the cable while doing the Key Test) or have their insulation stripped somewhere. This latter has caused some problems before.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redhonker:
I tried to tighten all the connectors.

All keys passed the test.

Hi there! Don't know if this is the right forum, but I got a question..

I got an HTC Evo V from VM, I noticed VM and a few other places says it comes with 4GB of Internal Storage, but when I looked in the system, all I get is 1GB. Is it suppose to be 1GB or 4GB?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
this belongs in the evo 3d section since this is technically a rebranded sprint evo 3d. But the reason you have only 1gb is because the other 3GB of internal is used up by the system. For example my galaxy s3 is the 16gb version but only has 12gb usable since some of the memory is used for the phone/system.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrWinNT62:
Ah thanks! If I rooted the phone, would there be a way to expand the storage? Or just remove the bloatware included?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
the internal storage would increase a little but not past 1gb if you flashed a rom. With root you could remove bloatware which could free up internal memory

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Skwerl23:
I'm not 100% sure why this is happening. But here are some options.

You could download go dialer from the store.

Or Download a different launcher like pro launcher and long hold in the home screen, and it should have a apps or shortcut option which may include phone app.

Or Download a shortcut widget and put phone on it.

Or you could find another ICS ROM and take out the phone apk. Put it in system/app and fix permissions. Then reboot.

Or do all the steps to a full wipe (factory reset/dalvik wipe/system format) and reflash the ROM and gapps.
