[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zenneka:
Hi there...

I looked but couldn't find these combination...i mean: XWLSD + Siyah-s2-v6.0b4 + Chainfire3D.

Ok, so this is what it happened:

Yesterday i flashed XWLSD on my i9100 , and everything went smooth, all my apps were there, and all my configurations.

So today i flashed a custom kernel, Siyah-s2-v6.0b4, in order to root my phone, and again, everything went well.

The problem came when i remember that i got the ChainFire3D Drivers to install and play some games.

In the minute i tried to install them, my SGS2 turn off, and when i tried to turn it on again, i got a boot loop. All i got is the SAMSUNG GALAXY SII screen, and after that, the phone just turns off again.

I'm able to enter in recovery mode and also into download mode.

So , what i need to know is that, if i flash again my XWLSD ROM i can fix the problem, or do i need to do a full wipe first, or if there's some other way to do this.

All I did was trying to copy and paste some files onto my laptop and they all disappeared completely

Both my external and internal was completely wiped clean for no reason

I dont know what i say or do

Can anyone tell me what just happened or any advice to attempt to recover my data (i highly doubt there is)

FYI i have the important data backed up such as photo and text, everything else is gone
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Woody:
On your external, you could use something like Recuva. It is a data recovery software and I am pretty sure it's free.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itsmyjobtoknow:
Didn't work.... But thanks

For some reason I can't get the play store to open I get the rom working just not gapps I installed gapps but still nothing. Help please!!
[HTC One V] drinfernoo:
Which ROM and gapps did you install?
[HTC One V] BmoneyYG:
I installed the pacman cm10 one and the 4. Something gapps but when I flash gapps it still shows as 3.1.2 I think. and it won't open the application I don't know if something's missing.
[HTC One V] drinfernoo:
It's probably going to help if you give some actual information here. Did you clean install, or just flash willy-nilly? What recovery do you have? What actual versions of your ROM and gapps?
[HTC One V] BmoneyYG:
I did it how it says to do it. I'm using twrp and the Rom is cm10 4.2.2 and the gapps. Zip is 4.2.1 but in the rom it says version 3.9.11
[HTC One V] drinfernoo:
Everything is wrong here. CM10 is 4.1.x, so you are probably running CM10.1 if it's 4.2.2. Also, you are using a version of gapps that is two years old. Go grab the 12/12/12 gapps which are FOR Jellybean. Try again.
[HTC One V] BmoneyYG:
Where can I find it???
[HTC One V] drinfernoo:
At the risk of spoon feeding information that could by found easily by simply following this link, you can look here, if you haven't found that already.

Another really great resource is at goo.im, but be careful exploring there if you don't know what you're doing, which it seems like you don't, or you could easily download a package that is in development or broken.

You should probably not be posting this type of thing here, or at all, since:

a) This is something easily solved by searching, as my post has hopefully helped you to learn, and

b) You are almost certainly in over your head if you don't even know how to determine what version of package you are flashing to your device. I would be careful, since you evidently have a fairly nice phone, and it would a shame to brick it.

Thank you, come again, but only after searching first.
[HTC One V] Damon9890:
hey are you actually wanting a specific rom or are you wanting just any rom because I can tell you how to get the newest stable or nightlie rom and how to flash as if you just bought both your computer and phone. I am currently using my htc one v with pacman 4.2.2
[HTC One V] drinfernoo:
Did you even read the topic at all?
[HTC One V] BmoneyYG:
My problem is that i cant get the play store to open at all. i got all the right files. And even if i do by clear data and all that it opens then it says server error..
[HTC One V] drinfernoo:
Try a clean flash with all the right versions of stuff, and see what happens.
[HTC One V] comscier:
1) http://goo.im/gapps for gapps

2) newest one for 4.2 is 20130301

3) check your phone, if it says 4.1.x then use 20121011

4) connect to wifi, leave it alone.

5) google play store will update itself. (homescreen shortcut may say app isn't installed)

6) try launch play store (once) from app drawer. (instead of homescreen)

7) if everything goes right, your play store should be working by now.
[HTC One V] BmoneyYG:
Thanks it helped. But just realized that the camera don't work so maybe if there's a camera fix for it I'll with go with pac man but till there's a fix I'm going to stay with provision..

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] neuropass:
This is my scenario. I own a galaxy SIII bought from ROGERS. I'm fed up with them and I want to switch to mobilcity. a customer rep from mobilcity told me that their simcard will not work on my phone . is that true? My phone is unlocked and I have a custom ROM. He mentioned because of the difference in the hardware. :confused: I'm not knowledgeable enough in this filed but I thought it was bull****. If my phone is unlocked how can it not work with their simcard?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
That's interesting because they sell sims specifically for your gsm s3 here:

http://freeyourcellphone.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=121
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DRFTsil40:
It might be because mobilicity uses a different baseband. I'm not too sure about it though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ddt68:
The customer rep is correct. Mobilicity uses AWS spectrum for their network (1700 MHz), and the Rogers version of the S3 does not support this frequency. You need the T-Mobile version (SGH-T999).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
The 1700MHz LTE freq is supported by the i747m
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ddt68:
Yeah, but Mobilicity uses HSPA/HSPA+ on AWS, not LTE.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
I see. Are they the only network that operates that way? I've seen some of their Web ads and it appears deceiving, like any US/Canadian variant will work on their network
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
All SGH i747/747M have the exact same hardware. The only difference is the carrier
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ddt68:
Mobilicity, Wind Mobile and Videotron are the three new competitors on the market, and they all use HSPA on AWS. They don't typically advertise that you need a specific phone, but the FAQs on their web site do, and their reps are quick to point it out.

All three are rumored to be looking at LTE, but that's only likely to occur after the upcoming 700MHz spectrum auction.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Well I made a fool of myself... I had forgotten mobilecity was included in the t-mobile forum. It looks like t-mobile phones will but not one like rogers and at&t.

EDIT: Does Canada has a prepaid/no contract carrier that is compatible with the big three in canada ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ddt68:
Yes, there are a few MVNOs, such as Petro-Canada Mobility, PC Mobility, Speakout Wireless; these all use either the Rogers or Bell 3G networks, but not LTE. Each of the big three also owns a few more companies: Fido and Chatr (Rogers), Koodo (Telus) and Virgin (Bell).

Hi i recently acquired a nook color and want to root it. I see so many different guides.

I would like to know if the guide on the cm website will work just fine using u nooter.

Thanks for any help in advanvce
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
You basically have three options.

Run a rooted stock on internal memory. To get that use Manual Nooter 5.08.20 in the development thread. Here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22480277

Run a Cyanogenmod (CM) ROM on internal memory, replacing stock. Use eyeballers guide to set that up. Here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12797652

Or run a CM ROM from a bootable SD. Use my NC updated SD installation guide linked in my signature.

They each work equally well, just depends on what you want.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
That should work, but is so much more difficult than the eyeballer method. You have to make an unooter card, root stock with it so you can use ROM Manager. Then run ROM Manager to install CWM, boot to the new CWM and flash the CM ROM. A lot of extra steps. With eyeballers guide you just make a CWM card and flash with that. No need to root stock first.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tohno:
Hi all

i am not really a huge fan of mobile gaming but i do play them every now and then

i recently tried playing NFS most wanted and the lag ...is unbearable i did some gaming mods but it only helped in a few levels

( my governor was set to performance( 1728 ) and no apps are in the background )

so i tried another game real racing 3 and my nexus would just shut down and i am forced to remove the battery in order to start my phone which really makes me sad

so the question is can the nexus keep up with the games today? are there some mods i can do in order to play these high end game?

i am using

cm10.1 nightly with xperia skin

franco kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reysonance:
The GPU in the GN is never, nor will be, a decent performer for demanding games. Mods and tweaks will only help to an extent.

And overclocking it to 1.7 and lock it to the max freq like what you're doing right now wouldn't really help either, it would only throttle the CPU constantly down like crazy, and will affect performance. I'd say stay away (from OCing it like that, that is).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
I agree gaming sux on gnex but it also sux on gslll which has quadcore , game developers just don't know how yo make a game run well on android especially Gameloft an EA for example even though our hardware is more than capable, blame the game developers which always seem to neglect android devices over apple devices, even a quad core LG Nexus 4 an Samsung galaxy Slll has lag an stutter with games so its purley the game developers fault, wouldn't matter what hardware you had they still stuff it up, best thing to do is not buy games unless you read the reviews so these developers don't make any money until they start producing what's expected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andreas__:
AW: Can the (my) nexus keep up with today's game?

I agree. Huge games like real racing 3 lag on my device. I set graphics quality to low and have my cpu at 1,35 and gpu at 512 MHz but races with more than 4 cars at once suck :(

Anyways its not intended to be a mobile gaming console and I'm very happy with it

[General Questions and Answers] spookyman15:
Hello Friends, (The topic could be added with "USB device not recognized" as well.)

I have rooted the Optimax v1.1 Rom months ago on my Xperia Ray. I cannot ask these at the Optimax thread because I dont have any posts up to now. :) Yesterday I wanted to change my rom but before doing the procedures, I erased all the data both in phone root and sd card by settings section on phone. Then my phone didn't worked again. There is a boot-loop problem. I have been searching for 7 hours and did every possible ways that people talked and still couldn't solve the problem. First and very important problem is that when I plug the phone in flashmode or fastmode windows gives an error of "USB device not recognized". I removed all the sony stuff and flashtool and pda.net drivers. I also removed all the staff which includes "Xperia" at regedit. Then I tried the steps at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1492805 for so many times. However it still doesnt recognize therefore I cannot flash the boot-loop problem solver. The only way that boot-loop doesnt occur is when I plug the phone to computer and turn it on with normal way. I cannot use application menu since there isnt any launcher application is installed also there isnt any keyboard application. Therefore I cannot do anything about this. I wrote a long paragraph to explain my problem because I have a midterm two days later which means I can't explain the issue to people by one by. I hope you can help me.:rolleyes:

I was in a similar situation (well, not as bad, I had all my data on sd) but that method in the post didn't work for me as SEUS kept telling me I already had the last version.

I manage to fix it by flashing a Stock ROM in ftf file format with Flashtool.

I'm just mentioning for others in the similar situation so they know there is an alternative.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CNexus:

May just be a corrupted system, so if you root it then you could try flashing another rom to see if that fixes it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hondafreak513:
My bad yeah its still stock.. I already did the factory reset twice.. talked to sprint customer care.. they said I need to talk to the local sprint store... I think if I root it and put a good ROM on it that it might fix it..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlmancuso:
Okay so a used or refurbished? If you have no warranty on it by all means root, s-off, and never look back. There are two things that can be your problem. Bad software on system or bad hardware on board. If it is hardware well no wifi but if it is software than you will then have a full rooted super fast evo.

50/50 odds wifi/nofi with no variables added yet.

Bad ota update would make it around 70/30

Next bad htc software 75/25 wifi/nofi

It may be his router causing the issue if it worked at sprint. If its hardware the radio is replaceable and fairly cheap these days. As long as you know how to work a screw driver and aren't a clumsy oaf, all you need to do is open it up extract the part carefully and order a replacement. Then replace it, button it up and give it a test run. Ifixit has the tear down to show you where and how to replace the radio

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
It could still be the router/phone combo. I know my sons kindle fire didn't like certain network types. It wouldn't even see ad-hoc and wouldn't connect to infrastructure with security. There could be a setting on the evo that isn't playing nice with the network settings or vice versa. Could be hardware, or software. Make sure sprint connections optimizer is off under network settings > more > mobile networks. You could also try reinstalling the firmware with an ruu and see if maybe the radios need updated or something in /system is corrupted
