@ Sandy:Loving the V5 :D Thanks for it :)

The only thing is, MIUI V5 is poorly resized to MDPI. I tried to change the DPI to 140 but that would stop my phone from booting. Any way to enable changing the DPI so that the layout looks good?

Thanks.

EDIT: Ok, just asked google about the dpi thing, and I think I'm onto something. Will post my progress here.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor did the trick.

But it didn't lead to any change with the MIUI layout

Just like xda I ? From 128 mb to 256 mb maybe ?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] PavelR.:
Although one never knows :), I don't think HTC will release an XDA2 device with 256 MB RAM. The thing with XDA1 was that at the time when the 32 MB device was launched, 64 MB was a standard with other PocketPC PDA's. So they decided to produce also a 64 MB version in order to be able to "compete".

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] sleekool:
thanks for the reply.. Maybe soon when 256 mb PDAs will become prominent :D

the problem with more and more mem is that

better screen

More realistic rumours follow the move to a screen resolution of VGA 640x480.

Toshiba have produced devices with this in a 4inch screen. PPC 2004 appears to be a native 640x480 resolution. So keep your eyes out.

So I'm looking into buying this phone but I'm afraid of making a bad deal. I want to keep this phone at least 2 years. How's the PowerVR SGX540 on L9 ? Will it still be able to keep up with the newest stuff for at least 2 years?

Odp: [Q] About PowerVR SGX540

Sgx is very popular gpu. I think it last minimum for a year but not sure for more. You will need to interest into oc, unlock bootloader, root and many more if you want to hold this phone for more than a year.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] ionut0:
so is it worth it ? or should i look into something else in this budget?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] psychoace:
It's a $200 phone. If you are expecting top of the line specs then you are in the wrong price range. It can handle most of what's out right now but we can't expect what comes down the road. Will the phone hold up for 2 years? Yes but it wont be a gaming juggernaut if that's what you want. If you want pure gpu specs and have an extra $150 to spend then get the Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serialtoon:
I just realized that i setup a repair with LG for my Nexus 4. The problem is that it keeps on freezing up and getting really hot, no matter the ROM. Even on stock i had the same issue. Now, being a technician, i setup a repair with LG not thinking that i should call Google and have them swap it out for me like everyone else (what was i thinking!!??). It shipped out yesterday and is in transit to deliver to LG on Friday. Did i mess up? I mean i have other phones to use mean while, but i feel like i should have gone with calling Google as i bought the phone from the Play Store. I guess im feeling sort of stupid for doing the repair thru LG but i think i might be able to re-route the delivery so it comes back to me ( and waste shipping $$). What should i do? Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kthejoker20:
They'll probably just send it back to you and bill you for shipping.

I would call them and get a note in your file to protect you from charges...

I intercepted the package. Im just waiting for UPS to update the page as to where my phone is now...i had to pay $12 to have them return it back to me. There goes $30...you live and learn i suppose. The good news is that i setup a repair with Google so ill have them ship me a phone while my other one is coming back to me and ill just swap them.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cedi0117:
I just flashed the three files in odin, the PDA, PHONE and CSC in the link i gave you.

LINK

Necessary files :

ODIN 1.85

ODINFILES

1.go to download mode on your phone. open up odin before you plug in your phone.

2.Plug in Phone with USB Cable To Computer

In ID:COM it should go yellow and you should see ADDED in the message box

3.Click PDA button and select : CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar

4.Click PHONE button and select: MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar

5.Click CSC button and select: GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar

(don't tick re-partition and flash lock)

When you have all the files needed in ODIN

6.Click Start let it Run.

it will boot up and open recovery and if it has red errors (the dbdata one)

just flash this file as PDA and don't tick re-partition and flash lock. Otherwise, skip these steps.

DBDATA.RFS

To root your device again, just flash this file: LINK (or this file can be found in the OdinFiles.zip). Flash this file as PDA again.

after doing so, my problem regarding missing imei and mobile network were gone.

however, i do recommend reading the thread if you weren't able to understand some things or whatnot.

2) Are you sure you have i9000 or any of its 20 variant models?

3) IMEI (even if totally unable to recover by flashing) can be edited by Riffbox, most people pay around 5 to 20 dollars to get mobile repair shop to fix in a matter of minutes. Does not need to change motherboard.

well it either that or taking it to a mobile repair shop, they will use a z3x or octupus box to edit the IMEI number for you and you wil have to pay them. But do check and negotiate first if you do. it may cost from 5 to 20 dollar, service charge. Off course in India, it will be in rupees. its not a difficult process and can be done within the hour.

Does this make more easier?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
yup you can just use root explorer and do this

[6] Problem:- lost my IMEI or changed on upgrading to JB CM 10

Quote:

Solution:- Reason is you had Jumped from GB to JB (should be on ICS before JB), so now you need to

1) Download Root Explorer, or Xplore, or any root browser from Play Store and use it to

2) Search you internal SD card for sdcard/backup/efs or any other backup you have for your efs

3) Copy nv_data.bin, nv_data.bin.md5 paste them (means overwrite existing files) into /efs in your Internal Phone memory

4) Fix permissions by Click on efs folder and keep it pressed to open the menu and click on permissions and set them to rw_r_r_ ( Owner = read & write - Group = read only and Others = Read only), after this Save using menu and exit using menu

5) Power down phone and reboot into recovery and wipe cache before rebooting phone to get back your original IMEI

or

you can start from the beginning.. go back to GB 2.36 (use a JVU ROM + Root, upgrade to ICS CM 9 and than to CM10

Solution for i9000 on JB:-Try not to jump from Gingerbread to Jellybean, as all upgrades should be done progressively. meaning you need to be on a GB 2.3.6> than into ICS and finally into JB.
