[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluecrush69:
Hi guys,

I broke my LCD for my rogers i727 skyrocket (screen is not cracked, but LCD displays funky colours when I turn on the screen, digitizer still works). From what I understand, even though it's just my LCD that is broken, I'll have to replace both LCD+digitizer. So I'm looking on eBay and found this: "White Housing LCD Digitizer Display For Samsung AT&T Galaxy S 2 Skyrocket i727" sold by forceviewer_au (sorry can't post outside links yet)

I'm interested in changing my hosing to white from black. $167 to get both housing and LCD+digitizer. Is this what I should be buying? Because I'm seeing some other listings on eBay for just the lcd+digitizer without housing for roughly $200 and the backside of the LCD looks different from the pictures in the eBay link I posted. Is it because in the link I posted, it comes with the frame?

Thanks

What will a custom kernel do for me. I have been thinking about rooting but I do not want to flash a ROM. I am really loving stock. How will a kernel benefit me. I heard they have something to do with battery. How is that?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] italia0101:
With a custom kernel you can do some really cool tinkering for example

- underclock (save battery)

-undervolt ( MAY save battery , but will def help with heat)

- change governor ( may help battery)

- change screen properties . I.e colours

- GPU over clock / under clock ( obvious)

Other cool performance tweaks as well
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ballastatuz:
Thank you. Sounds pretty helpful for battery. Do you recommend any kernels?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ranguvar:
I'd go with franco's kernel for now.

All of them are new and may have bugs, but franco is a longtime kernel developer and he's the least likely to do stupid stuff or claim features that actually hurt performance or are just placebos.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdviper:
Franco's kernels seem good. I use it on my N7, but I just wouldn't use it yet as he's working blind. Faux has some amazing battery saving kernels. Mathkid's kernels pretty well as well, I used to use his on the Nexus S back in the day.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
I'd be careful about recommending a kernel where the developer is doing so blindly. Honestly its very irresponsible. Unless he's got a device that's 99.9% identical, i cant recommended it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbroon:
Under clock can be done on a stock kernel just needs root. Custom kernel allows over clock doubt its needed though CPU is fast enough.

Different governors can be used on stock too but custom kernels may offer extra ones like smartass etc.

They may also add things like NTFS cifs run etc not available in stock.

Using Motleys kernel just now too soon to comment on improvements.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CMNein:
If stock is working for you, there's no reason to flash another, unless you have the itch.

The stock kernel is great, and undervolting is more trouble than it's worth if you're starting from scratch, unless tinkering with voltages is your thing, and there's zero need to overclock the N4 CPU or GPU

IMO

. There aren't a ton of options, yet, either. 3.4 is pretty young yet.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resynx:
As someone who is using Franco's kernel at the moment, I can recommend it strongly. It's running very well :good:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweaked:
Agree. Franco is amazing and once he actually has the device he will only improve.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ranguvar:
Yeah -- that was my other experience, I'm using franco's kernel and have been since day one.

Quite stable at least so far, no crazy changes.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dr_rick:
I'm having an issue with my wifi on my S3, but only with one AP. We just installed a Cisco Aironet 1024 AP at our church, and initially my phone connected to it without problem. I've been doing some work on trying to get it configured as I want, and now my phone has issues connecting to it. What is strange is that my tablet and laptop both connect with no problems.

Here's what's happening. The AP is broadcasting on both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands. My tablet doesn't support 5 GHz, but connects to the 2.4 GHz band just fine. My laptop supports both and connects to both fine. For whatever reason my phone doesn't see the 2.4 GHz band, only the 5 GHz one. It will connect to the 5G one fine, but then it drops and reconnects repeatedly. My phone connects to both my 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands on my router at home just fine.

I'm assuming there's something screwy with the way my AP is configured at the church, but it still seems like there's something screwy going on with my phone. I've tried deleting and re-adding the AP, I've tried a factory reset, and tried restoring my nandroid. None have solved the problem. Anyway, I'm at a loss here, so do any of you have ideas of what I'm missing? What could be causing my phone to have issues with this one AP when all my other devices work just fine? I'm currently running CleanROM 5.0 with KindaCrap Mods installed. Thanks in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelo2676:
I'm having a little (and simple to reproduce) problem with my Samsung Galaxy S2.

When on 3G data connection, about 5-6 minutes after the phone locks with the screen going off it will stop synching any kind of data. It won't receive any incoming messages from Google Talk, Gmail, Heytell or any other similars. Randomly after several minutes it's like the phone wakes up, checks, and receives all incoming messages all at once.

Also it will receive it all when I unlock the phone and I have noticed a little pattern in the antenna signal icons where they go from blu to white to blu again and then the magic happens.

Do you have any hints on how to fix this or make at least more bearable?

When on wifi there is no problem at all and all messages are synched instantly.

I have used a few custom roms (resurrection remix and revolt both with android 4.1.2). I have tried to change modems and kernels with no luck.

I believe it is a problem with jb 4.1.

Is anybody having the same experience or could give it a try?

Thanks in advance.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryzee:
While my original NC is running quite well with the CM10 nightlies, I have lost my ability to use the USB cable as my file transfer source since leaving CM 7.2.

I now do all of my files transfers directly to the SD card by removing it and accessing it directly via my computer.

I get the following when the cable is connected: "USB device not recognized".

I have tried both Media Device and Mass Storage settings to no avail.

This was not an issue with CM 7.2.

Seems to be the only real issue I am experiencing since I was able, with forum help, to redo my inadvertently updated NetFlicks.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
First, don't call the ROM JZ054K, it is CM10. You confuse folks. The problem probably is you have USB debugging enabled. Go to settings, developer options and uncheck Android debugging.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryzee:
Followed your suggestion and unchecked Android Debugging. Rebooted and then hooked up the USB/Recharge cable. Still have same result with the "USB device not recognized" being displayed by Win7/64 with both Media Device or Mass Storage being selected.

Any other paths to explore on this?

Utilized my ROM nomenclature based on "About tablet: Bulid Number" and will switch to CM10 if that is a confusing issue.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andtron:
The device id and vendor id are different in the CM10 from CM7, you would need to edit the android_winusb.inf file to include them.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Are you sure it is still unchecked? Did you go back and look after rebooting. You should not have to reboot to turn it off. That device not recognized issue is it is looking for ADB drivers because the debugging box is checked.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryzee:
Yes, went back and looked and it was still unchecked. Normally reboot when I make any changes but went back and redid your suggestion from scratch without rebooting with same result.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
The only thing I can think of is to go device manager in Windows and uninstall any devices in portable devices, android phone and under USB controllers, any mass storage devices. Then unplug and replug it back in, assuring debugging is still of. You should now get messages that things are installing, hopefully automatically.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryzee:
Unsuccessful

Tried: "...and under USB controllers, any mass storage devices." This actually allowed WE to show "Nook Color" but when I clicked on it, there was nothing there. The unit did temporarily display a USB connection at that time also.

Again, this was not an issue under CM7.2.

Thanks for your ongoing assist!

Update: Okay tried every conceivable way of deleting some or all of USB drivers under DM and reinstalling. Even went into BIOS and turned down USB 3.0 to 2.0!

Again erratically got the Andoid USB screen temporarily a couple of times but could not maintain it.

Definitely getting a Windows "Code 43" error indicator.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
If you are getting windows errors installing drivers you may want to look at this post. It is for the HD+ and trying to get ADB working, but there is some interesting stuff there about unsigned windows drivers that may apply to you.

Will do!

It was very frustrating seeing the Android USB screen fleetingly appear several times and not be able to nail it down. I even got the WE screens for both drives briefly at one point!

Any idea as to why the issue exists with CM10 and not CM7.2?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryzee:
Followup

Went there (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=34954992) ...did that. Did not work at first, but it did work (somewhat) after I went back in and deleted the three drivers. I was then able to connect and utlilize WE to probe and adjust both emmc and sdcard. Calibre recognized that it was connected but I could not transfer anything directly from it to the NC.

Thanks for all of the help with this. Since I am probably around eight weeks from purchasing my HD+, I will just use the SD card to manually transfer files.

Interesting issue nonetheless!

Had same problem, I went to settings - storage - then the menu box top right (three dots) then choose USB computer connections..

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LucasFMundim:
Hello there,

My brother just bought the Motorola Droid RAZR i (aka XT890) cellphone and it came with Android 4.0.4 ICS and I saw that Motorola already pushed JB for the RAZR series.I couldnt find any JB retail ROM for it or even CM. Moments later I found out that RAZR i is basically the same as RAZR M, is it possible then to use a RAZR M ROM with it? and if so, where do I download it? If not, anyone found a RAZR i JB ROM, retail or CM?

Thanks in advance!:)
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freak4dell:
It looks the same on the outside, but the inside is completely different. The RAZR i runs an Intel processor, while the M runs an S4. The ROMs for the M won't work.

JB for the RAZR i will be available when Motorola releases it. CM will be available when somebody develops it. I think there are people working on it (or other AOSP ROMs), but these things take time.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sleebus.jones:
Finding a leather case that's really made for the Note 2 that goes on your hip is a heck of a challenge at best. There's lots of pleather cases out there, and ones that aren't made for the Note...they're big enough to hold two of them I've heard! The case made right is big enough already, it doesn't need to be bigger than needed.

So after lots of looking I settled on the Smartphone Experts Side Pouch.

From what I could tell in the pictures, it looked like a good case and with the black friday discount, I got it for ~$21, not bad for a leather case.

It came in today, and I must say I'm pleasantly surprised. It truly is real leather, smells great and is stamped so on the back (you can see it in the pictures.) Stitching is done nicely, and with black thread instead of the white I see so often. Thank god for that, I don't need my case looking like a leisure suit!

There is extra padding on the exposed side of the case, I haven't seen this before in other cases. This can be seen in the pictures too. The belt clip is sturdy and strong, even though it looks small. The closure is magnetic and holds the flap down securely. Honestly, I don't know if magnets really mess up the phone, but it would be a simple matter to slide a sheet of mu-metal foil inside of the padded area to help with that.

The fit is quite snug, but one can expect that with all leather cases. They usually take about a week or so to form fit to your device. After that, it'll be quite easy to get the case in and out of my pocket. It does have a finger hole in the bottom center of the case to enable you to pop your device out easily. One miss, as pointed out by BrooklynAvi is that there is no headphone hole. I don't use headphones, but I can certainly see how that'd be a problem.

So, all in all, a very nice quality case. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a leather hip case.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] MTR852:
Thanks for the review. Do you think this pouch can fit the Note Ii with a case? Maybe I'll be a tight fit.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sleebus.jones:
Kinda hard to tell; my phone is naked. The extra padding is soft, so it does have some give in it. If the case is thin, it'll probably go. Good thing is that leather stretches with time, so it should stretch to fit eventually?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] BrooklynAvi:
I love the Seidio holster but they aren't making it for the GNote 2 without an additional case. In addition to the cost of the extra case, I don't want to have a case on my phone. The strange thing is they make two of those type of cases which annoys me. One should have been the regular one. Well, they said they don't plan to make one so I was in the market for a traditional hip case. I found this one and you confirmed a few things I wanted to know so I'm ordering it now. I used this type for my Dash and several other devices so it shouldn't be too bad. Better than my pocket.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Kawaisa:
I thought this thread was going to be about a hip ie. fashionable case

I've been deceived ha ha
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sleebus.jones:
Yeah, well..... :p

One thing I can't stand is a phone in the pocket. Only way to make that worse is to have a LARGE phone in my pocket. It may not look cool, but you can't beat a case on your hip for ease of access. ;)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] BrooklynAvi:
One (or two) big issues

OP: Can you add this comment (in brief, of course) to the OP so others know the headphones hole is missing?

So I received the case and it was exactly what I expected in terms of quality. It really is designed for a belt but works well on my pants alone when I don't wear a belt but falls off my sweatpants at home (I don't wear my case at home much anyway and this is to be expected). Here are the issues. There are no cutouts for the headphone and charger. The charger isn't truly and issue for me as I doubt I will charge it while wearing it like I've done with other phones (while out and using an external charger) because the battery life is tremendous on the GN2. But I really use the headphones while wearing the case. I actually think that this is a vital feature that was overlooked. My solution will be to pay $5 or $10 to have a professional seamstress cut a hole in it and stitch up the hole. Yeah, it's that important to me.

So if you need a case like this then it's really your only choice. I just didn't think to ask. It's solid though and once it stops being stiff I'm going to enjoy not having to carry the device in my pocket. I'm a huge fan of side cases and this is a really good one. (Anyone remember the awesome one that came with the T-Mobile Dash?)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] BrooklynAvi:
After a week or so of use I've decided I'm returning the case. It simply doesn't stay on my side and it's fallen off in my car a few times. It even fell off while I was walking. I'm so disappointed in a case that could have been so good.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] McLaren__F1:
I never buy those belt clips like that, i had a bad experience with those. The belt part becomes every flimsy very fast. Im still looking for a nice belt holster that isn't ottercase or siedo.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sleebus.jones:
I haven't had a problem with it falling off, but then I always had a belt on when I was using the case. It's a good case, but I've switched to the Best Buy Pt/seidio surface case. Gives the extra grip I need and love the holster.
