Shoot, my apologies for not catching that. I should have looked harder...But I'll be honest, I was looking at his thread while watching The Walking Dead, so you know, I was quite distracted :D

Do you feel that the performance of Icyfusion is better than that of REDD with stock kernel? About the same? I'd like your opinion on that. Narrowing this all down and I'll be set to go here very soon, so you're almost done with me. It's just that while I have your attention, may as well have you guide me to get settled on the right rom for me and stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
Hello gentlemen. I haven't realize I've been gone for 5 days lol. I see you flashed back to stock already, I was trying to figure out a way to upload my stock rom or send it to you but you already got past that which is a great thing,

I actually came from IcyFusion to REDD and I can say this. REDD runs smoother, and has less bugs, but IcyFusion has better battery life, and plays games better in my experience lol
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] WHib96:
Not a problem. Zaclimon helped me out a bit. Not only did I get back to stock, but I also tried out Ethereal and then went back to stock lol. I'm sure you're proud of your apprentice :P

Hmm, that is tough. I think maybe I'll just try them both out. As long as Icyfusion isn't insanely unstable like Ethereal was (I felt like half my apps wouldn't work...It seemed only the UI was truly smooth), I think I could get along with it. Do you mind sharing what kind of bugs you ran into with Icyfusion?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
The student is becoming the master lol. Not many. Just some weird UI bugs and random crashes that's about it. However 99% of the apps run better on IF than Ethereal.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] WHib96:
Righteo (I love that word :) ), I'll try out Icyfusion. If I don't like it, I'm going with REDD. Question though. If I make a nandroid backup while still on the stock rom, can I just load that backup if I'm on another rom and want to go back to stock? I just almost feel like that'd be easier, and possibly safer than trying to reflash the stock rom and what not. Not sure if that's proper though.

The biggest worry I have with Icyfusion is loss of battery life, since I HAVE to have a custom kernel installed with it, and those for some dumb reason make my CPU run too much and drain my precious battery. It felt like Ethereal was practically draining more battery because of that...I seriously wish there was some way I could disable that. But yeah, I'll give it a shot. We'll see if the performance boost is worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
As long as you using one of the custom kernels that use CWM then yes, otherwise idk lol. You might have to ask zaclimon if you can go do that with the stock kernel or not. In fact that's how I started switching between IF and Ethereal at one point lol. It's way easier and faster than flashing through odin
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] WHib96:
Gotcha. So, I wanna ask you, why did you switch from IF to Redd? I'm liking Icy fusion so far quite a bit, but I'm still trying to decide which rom (redd or IF) to settle on. I'm just kinda gathering different opinions on both.

Actually though, I still have yet to see if I'm gonna get my 3 day slow down and reboot thing. I've been changing around roms so much that I haven't had one rom going for 3 days. Tomorrow will be the third day of IF, so we'll see...I've tweaked some things so that I have about 160 MB of ram available when the device is idle (gotta admit, that's impressive :) ), so ram should not be an issue. seriously though, I don't care what rom I'm on; if I find my original problem is fixed, I'll be pretty happy lol.

Just out of curiosity, are any of the ICS roms even really in development anymore? As I was looking around at roms, it seems like most of the deving for the 4.0 has stopped.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
I just wanted to try REDD. My problem with the stock rom was it was just so bland, but REDD made it come alive. IF is fine but I got kind of bored with the pseudo ICS scheme so I switched. I do miss IF's battery life, just like I miss Ethereals themed keyboard but I'll live lol. That I don't know you have to ask the devs on them. I think Hanethesolo and Zaclimons still work on there's but I'm not sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] WHib96:
Blegh, IF is starting to bite me in the butt. As I was toying around with undervolt settings and testing them, I realized that Wind Up Knight doesn't run properly...Which kinda hurts, because I really like that game. So first FLcommando, and then that...Grr. I'm tempted to go back to stock kernel and flash REDD, that way I won't have the battery draining problems of the custom kernels and I won't have the instability of IF.

It's a tough decision though. I feel like if I really worked and tested with the undervolting, I could save a lot of battery and get really nice battery life. However, I have to deal with games like wind up knight not working :\

Decisions decisions...

Do you think with V6 supercharger enabled on REDD, I'd get basically the same performance as IF? I know I'd get good battery because I get great battery life with the stock kernel. I just worry about the speed.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] WHib96:
For anyone who stops by this thread in the future (if anyone), I found that the stock rom (or REDD, they're both kinda the same) runs apps the smoothest. A factory reset seemed to fix my rebooting problem. The galaxy player slows down and slugs up tremendously after you've installed like over 100 apps, so the best way to keep your player in good shape is to uninstall apps you don't use.

A factory reset is the best option if you're having problems like I was.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Super Tommy:
So after the 3.16 update, I noticed my phone was not picking up 4G. After pulling my hair out to figure out why, I traced the problem to the Sprint Connection Optimizer being disabled. Turn it on, 4G toggles on with it, turn it off, 4G toggles off with it. The previous version of the Sprint Connection Optimizer did not do this. To confirm my suspicions I reset the phone to stock and observed the same behavior.

This is quite the pain in the ass as I don't want my phone connecting to WiFi networks that I marked "remember". In addition, I don't need my phone connecting to WiFi at work (which I use for work purposes under special circumstance).

My short term solution is to forget WiFi networks but this is rather tedious. With the Sprint Connection Optimizer toggled off, I am essentially locked out of 4G. I pay for Sprint's service and I insistent on using as much of their/my bandwidth as I chose.

Can anybody else confirm what is happening. My area has relatively strong 4G coverage, to the point where seeing 3G would be a rare occurrence. I need to make sure this isn't a problem on just my device before I roam my way out of my contract.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
Why would you not want to connect to WiFi networks that you mark remember?....jw

If you have the option of your local WiFi versus 4G most times I'd expect someone to want to go with the WiFi... Only time you'd want to not is in places where 4G was better connection, which in those cases I wouldn't want to mark said WiFi networks as remember...

Ill try to mess with it here see how it effects my stuff as were rolling 4G a lot now...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xanmanz31:
In most cases work wifi won't let you watch porn at work man. Total pain in the a$$. We should be able to toggle our own connections. I will say wifi is better on battery and generally faster. However there's potential risk on wifi that someone could access your device. Extremely unlikely but a possibility none the less.

In my area we don't have lte yet and the other day after installing MeanBean I saw 4G pop up in signal bar then went away then came back. Haven't seen it since. I was so excited but I shouldn't get my hopes up. Sprints been saying 4G for a long time and still nothing. Only reason I stay is unlimited data and I live the HTC evo line.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] laie1472:
You have a better chance of winning the lottery 5 times than someone accessing/ hacking your phone over wifi without you knowing about it.

Also there are great wifi apps that tells you who is on the network your on at all times.

#Root-Hack_Mod*Always=LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BonkyMoon:
I have found that Comcast seems to throttle youtube traffic at certain times of the day, and I have a specific spot in my house where my wifi signal just completely drops (but still claims to be "connected.") I'm obviously going to want my phone to remember my home wifi connection, but I don't necessarily want to always be using it at home.

My situation may not be incredibly common, but it's a valid scenario where you may not necessarily want connection optimizer to run the show.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
The optimizer isn't your issue there though, as the mere fact of having the network remembered in the phone will cause it to connect to it whenever within range.... Its the fact you have a remembered WiFi network saved and you want to override that in a specific location when still in range of the WiFi... In that case the only solution is to toggle it off when you don't want to use it at that specific location in your house...

Optimizers doesn't just force you to connect to your local network that's remembered as the WiFi being on will do that itself already...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] grizzlywan:
You can try disabling Sprint Connection Optimizer and try purchasing Juice Defender Ultimate. If you use its location service, it will only turn on wifi in places that you turn on the wifi antenna and remember them. And if it turns it on, you just manually turn it off until its trained.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chagla:
so i'm trying a fix a galaxy note att branded i717 note. my friend bought it craiglslist. here's what happens.

phone simply will not accept ANY att sim card. either "active" sim or fresh unactivated sim. same goes for tmobile sim cards. in both cases it will show "no sim/emergency calls only".

fine. i was under the impression that it should ask for some unlock code after inserting tmobile sim card, but it doesnt do that. clearly other MVNO sims didn't work either. note - both att and tmbole sims are 89014xxxxx

interestingly i had a foreign sim card (NON 89014xxxx....). => this works! instead of "no sim/emergency calls only", i simply get no service but no errors either!

WHAT is wrong with this phone? blacklisted? hardware fault? flash a different rom? any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Possible Sim card port damage...

A common problem with this device ....however, without knowing the history of the device, it becomes very difficult to diagnose...

But I'm leaning toward the Sim slot being damaged, as we have several threads on the subject ...g

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chagla:
I think he paid around 310. But the phone was in like new condition. If the SIM slot us damaged then why it would only reject tmob,att ones? It should reject every sim.

thx for ur responses. Appreciate it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] strandley12:
I think I can help. Try resetting your phone, reinstalling the rom, or there is a bad thing going on with your phone. Are you sure itbis from AT&T? If the SIM card slots do not work, gently use a cloth to clean them. Is it a micro SIM card or did you cut a regular one down yourself? thank me if anything I mention fixes the problem.;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chagla:
hi, thanks everybody for posting. some strange things happening.

I tested two Tmobile MVNO (ultra and ptel) sim cards, both work! I didn't try simple mobile yet.

i found ONE tmobile and ONE at&t sim card that gets read properly. then i tried few other att/tmobile sim cards and they are rejected. !!!??!!!

I think i need to go the debug mode and change some settings there? *#197328640#

clearly sim slot is not broken. imei is not blocked.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sociallymellow:
Although I do not know the purpose of this, you can always download root explorer and navigate to the system to delete all the system apps. Or more recommended would be to download an app 'freezer' in the market. Be sure to back up before attempting this. You could potentially damage a device by deleting to much (correct me if im wrong).

hi friends need your help a customer brought me a 16GB i9250 galaxy google just wanted to restart because I was so slow I then proceeded to do a hard reset .. now the phone only turns on and the display is only one cell .. .. . .. yellow triangle and a pc ..

I tried to restore it in many ways without success .. I used the flasher omap, I've also used the Galaxy Nexus ToolKit and also without any result.

when I remove the battery is detected as omap4440 I installed the drivers that are in the folder flasher omap but none of the programs I detect ... I tried

also with odin with versions 1.85 and 1.87 and nothing ever gets stuck in userdata and no longer goes from there

most humbly beseech your help because the client already want and do not want to give me more time-

I upload the images to see the errors thanks for your help

I'm desperate and do not know what else:crying::(:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scottx .:
So you bricked a customers phone. Nice.

Maybe you should read and learn more before attempting to work on other peoples devices.

From what I can see you need to use Odin to reflash the firmware back to stock. It needs to be in download mode. That's what that triangle means. Means its in download mode.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1405327

You can find lots of threads like that with different Odin firmwares. Find the right one for the right galaxy nexus.

After you flash that it will be all stock again and any and all data will be wiped.

This is why toolkits are bad. Make sure you have the right drivers installed. You don't have the right drivers installed or Odin would see the device.

All you have to do is name any bootanimation to bootanimation.zip and move it to system/media with 644 permissions r-w-r-r and owner is root. Also it has to be jpg files not png. Some of the bootanimations are png files and they do not work on this phone. Check and see what files are in the zip. If not jpg then you need a new bootanimation.

Because it is glass. Duh. If you are a person who drops their phone a lot, get a good case. Another revision isn't going to change this.

I didn't ask you to run a normal backup. Under Move/Integrate, run the Integrate batch. If it "doesn't stick" the first thing that comes to mind is that TiB doesn't have root....else something is hinky with your ROM install.

Hello everyone,

I just received an MZ604 Xoom from my friend, current OS is 4.0.3, and I want to upgrade it to 4.1. However, when I tried to root my device by Tiamat Kernel 1.3.1, after typing in cmd "fastboot flash boot boot.img", it's ok. Then I entered "fastboot reboot", the tablet just frozen at boot screen. Here is what I have tried so far and got no result:

- Try to restart it by holding power off and volume up

- Try to turn of completely by holding power off button (it didn't turn off)

- Factory reset from recovery mode
