Trying out the Vanilla Rootbox 3.9.1 JellyBean 4.2.2 now so far looks really good.

Spent my whole night configuring it and it looks really good.

Missing my TouchWiz

I am trying to get the default touchwiz launcher for it.

Reading through the forums.

There seem to be many varaitions of TouchWiz 4,4.5,UX Nature etc.

Lets see got to read through the forums for various launchers.

Kernel Tests

Also next on my list is to try out the Dorimanx 9.13 Kernel.

I have never tried out Siyah or Dorimanx Kernel and what benefits it will offer

will try out both and check out.

ROM To Try

Another set of interesting Roms that caught my attention was Bifton,Wanam Lite and Neat ROM.

Will keep you guys posted on my tests.

Hi guys wanted to update my feedback on Galaxy S2 - Vanilla RootBox 3.9.1

Tweaks Applied for battery

Performance Control : Governor : ondemand/conservative

Installed Juice Defender : Profile balanced.

Battery life seems to have improved on the second day. :)

Still havent flashed the Dorimanx Kernel 9.13

will see how the battery behaves today with stock kernel, if i can get through the whole day [i am being optimistic :P]

i will be a happy man.

But still i will flash the Dorimanx 9.13 Kernel and see if it offers more benefits :)

When phone gets updated you will most likely see them because Google has implemented emoji into stock font hopefully Sony will do the same but until then, if you have a rooted phone you can install emoji font installer from play store to install that font :)

hi all. I was working on some mods, and wanted to start fresh. I did a factory restore. funny thing is, seems it's missing things. most importantly, a Frickin keyboard. ( funny, I know)

my original backup seems to be corrupt, and for some reason, TB freezes when trying to restore any system apps.

going to reflash kdz. can I flash it with CWM, or should I do the Lelus method again?

Lelus method will definitely work.

So my S3 Volume down clicking stopped making the clicking sound, the Volume up makes the clicking sound, and the button works fine all together. Any opinions on what should i do?

You could always open up the back of the phone and check if the button is lodged in there, you can pop the button out and put it back to see if that will fix the problem.

It has 512 ram, I want to know what is a good number to stay below with apps running.

Thanks!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] SIGMAxB:
Unused ram is wasted ram android does pretty well with handling ram efficiently . Google android ram usage plenty to get lost in

You can turn on ksm, allocation, and zram option under performance to give a boost to ram handling
[Samsung Infuse 4G] glenrocks:
10% free of 512 is good?

okay, I am confused...there are apps which would need memory and using whole 512 up with only 50-60 free is good?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baineteo:
Hi all,

My SGS2 recently just died all of a sudden and while trying to flash a new firmware it bricked. =( Hence I'm currently looking for a replacement phone and have always wanted to get the Razr Maxx HD simply for it's battery life (a phone that has to be continuously plugged in to use all features is so pointless). Unfortunately, I am from Singapore which means the purchase is rather "risky" since it's expensive to ship and return is not an option. Hence I have some questions that will help me make a decision. Hope you guys can help me out. That fact that the 2 models are in the same forum doesn't really help make things clear.

1) Boot Loader

I've read that Dev version comes unlocked while Consumer (Verizon) version comes locked. I've also seen instructions on rooting the Verizon version; I'm a little confused. Can I or can I not root the consumer version?

2.i) Rooting

This is actually quite similar to (1). There are some apps that I use that requires rooting (e.g. Titanium Backup); rooting is essential to me. If I were to lay my hands on a non-Dev version, can I root it?

2.ii) Rooting

The current "procedure" for rooting is to downgrade to ICS 4.0.4 and then root, right? Is it safe to update to JB after that? There appears to be several posts claiming that they've lost their root after update. I assuming they didn't follow the post linked below? Also, rooting will not be possible (yet) if the firmware is on 4.1.2?

Ensuring Root After Updates?

3) Carrier Unlocked

I need to get an unlocked version for it to work with anything else other than Verizon - am I right? I've seen someone post that the XT926 is only locked in the US; it'll work on any other GSM carrier in the rest of the world. Is this true? Or did the guy mix it up with the XT925? There are many such posts.

4) Where to buy

Since return and shipping is an issue, I'm trying to stay away from eBay (unless the seller has good record). Unfortunately, many online retailers seem to be out of this phone! Can someone recommend a place where I can purchase the phone from? It does not have to ship internationally as I am able to arrange for courier services.

Thanks for the help!

P.S. I'm really dying to get this phone. I just need to have those questions answered before I splurge a rather large amount of money to ship it over.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] University of Pi:
Just started looking because I need a new phone and I'm not sure I can last till the GS4 comes out, the DNA has weak battery and poor storage and the note 2 is too much so late after it's release

1. The boot-loader for the verizon model is locked

2. You can root on ICS then upgrade with voodoo root keeper to 4.1.1; however there are reports that 4.1.2 has some issues with doing that. Verizon's can only downgrade to ICS from 4.1.1; if it comes with 4.1.2 it isn't rootable (yet)

3. Supposedly, verizon's works out of the box on all GSM except AT&T and Tmobile but I've seen some people have had some issues or at least someone did in india though

4. have you looked at like amazon wireless 650 no contract in us

Wirefly also has some in stock and on sale. I'm not sure of places that offer international shipping, though a bunch offer free shipping so it probably offsets anyways

There is only the T926 in a maxx version

This place might ship to singapore phone price 700
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baineteo:
Hi! Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I am looking for the "Maxx HD", aka the XT926.

Anyway, can I summarize that, if I were to lay my hands on a "consumer" version,

1) Bootloader is locked; I won't be able to flash custom ROMs

2) Rooting is possible if the phone ships with ICS. Can also possibly upgrade to 4.1.1 after rooting.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbeedle:
I have the MAXX HD and to answer as I can:

Bootloader is locked on the consumer version. I believe the developer edition is unlocked.

The consumer version can be rooted if it is not on the 4.1.2 release. Earlier releases can be back-leveled to 4.0.4 which can be rooted. Once rooted, root can be preserved with OTA Root Keeper. SuperSU seems to survive updates as well if it is set to preserve itself.

I believe you can use custom ROMs if you have root (I started fiddling with Safestrap when I had issues with the update and had to fastboot my phone to stock.)

Once at 4.1.2 the phone cannot be back-leveled and cannot be rooted (yet hopefully).

As I understand it: GSM is locked domestically (US). Unlocked internationally if the phone has been activated domestically first.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cpudan80:
Hey,

To add on to what others have said -- yes the phone is SIM unlocked, though it will *not* work on ATT/TMobile in the US without a firmware tweak (search around, it's an easy thing to do -- though I haven't done it myself.) The most recent update fixed the issue with roaming in India, though I haven't verified that myself. But the phone will definitely work in Australia as that's where I have been using it.

The phone works fine with the following caveats:

1. There is annoying "This SIM card is from an unknown source" warning when you turn the phone on. Easily bypassed by pressing "OK"

2. Tethering will not work on foreign SIMs, it tries to communicate back to the VZW network to verify your eligibility, which of course fails on a foreign SIM.

3. If you actually care about using the phone internationally on VZW's network, you need to call and have your account setup to allow for 4G international roaming (this is different then the 3G intl feature)

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baineteo:
Thanks for the reply guys.

With regards to what dbeedle said, it means that I just can't grab the phone off AmazonWireless and ship it out of the US because it has to be activated domestically?

As for the caveats mentioned by Dan,

1) Yea, I can definitely live with that. I don't turn my phone on/off frequently.

2) Tethering will be an issue (I use it sometimes)

3) Not a concern for me. :)

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baineteo:
Well well.. that's definitely good news!

One last question, does the phone has to be activated in the US before it can be used? I don't use to have a USD700 piece of kevlar sitting on my desk..
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moto_Dave:
Will the Motorola XT926 work in Australia

Hi Dan,

Thanks for the info I have a Motorola Verizon XT912 which works fine in Australia but also has the annoying "SIM is from an unknown source" message and I also could not get tethering to work with an Aust SIM.

Now, I would like to buy the XT926 however sellers on ebay are quoting... "* Quad-band GSM and 3G support (available only outside of the United States with Verizon roaming)" That concerns me however I don't believe it's true.

So you have not had any issues with your XT926 working on GSM and 3G in Australia ?

Thanks

David
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
be cautious of these sellers on ebay. i just helped another member a couple days ago who bought an unlocked 925 from there (or so he thought).

after i had him check a few things for me, i confirmed without a doubt, it was a locked 926. now he has to file a claim.

you would be better off getting it from swappa.

here are the specs for the 926, it will not work on any other frequencies than those listed. others are just not built into the phone, so there is no way they can work, as far as im aware.

im not sure how they apply to your situation. i think you would have to find out what they use in your area, and see if they are listed in the specs.
[Surround General] bluerichblue:
First, my apologies if this is already solved using this method , i searched for hours but didn't see it !!

I have found an alternate solution for the HTC Surround reboot issue, after trying new sd cards, charging overnight and reloading stock software ( all not working ), tried the first thing that i really should have tried, changed battery and now everything is working again with no boot loop !!!!

Before i tried swapping the battery the tri color screen was showing ' SD unknown 89 ' , and now after the battery swap is actually showing what ever SD i put in, so a bad battery could well be related to some of the SD card issues too, this could also be caused by a faulty charger which will both kill the battery and possibly fry you SD card !!!

Hopefully a few of you will find this really helpful, judging by what i have read there are alot of people who have tried all the tested methods such as swap the micro sd without any luck and are still stuck with a semi brick.
[Surround General] Mahmoud_Ali:
I've the same problem , but i want to know where's the problem because i don't want to buy a battery and then find out that the problem is in the SD card !!
[Surround General] bluerichblue:
There is no way of knowing, start with the battery as it is the cheaper of the 2 to buy ( only about 10 dollars ) and if it doesn't work after a good charge then it is most likely the SD card[ !!

It is an old issue with the rebooting to HTC logo only over and over again and mostly it seems the SD cards were faulty but i have heard of people still with the issue and i found this to work but i can't tell you which is your problem, maybe you know someone with the same phone ? just try their battery and if it works you know it is just battery !!!!
[Surround General] Mahmoud_Ali:
my phone keep restarting mostly when i try to play Games
[Surround General] bluerichblue:
It could be related to the SD card, if games or data are stored here it could just be corrupted and preventing proper play and restarts the device, if it restarts at the same point every time is likely to be the issue but you will need to do a factory reset which will erase all data, so make sure you backup what you want to keep !!!

If the phone is working during normal usage and only restarts during games, it is likely due to overheating, the graphics are very demanding on the system and it is possible once the phone reaches an unsafe level, automatically shuts down to prevent damage to the motherboard or it can be a compatibility issue, if the games are old version on an updated Rom or vice versa !!

If the phone does not feel hot, it could be a hardware issue, if the phone is used excessively for games, it could also be a worn out graphics processor chip !
[Surround General] Ghfran:
Restart again and again

I have issue that when insert the sim phone gets restart again and again and there is no such problem without sim card why ? please help
[Surround General] bluerichblue:
It is probably a faulty Sim card reader, this is a replaceable part and is easily available on ebay , it is the same part which has the SD card holder, just search for Sim card reader flex cable on ebay, it is also an easy part to replace if you have a little experience opening up phones too !!
[HTC Desire S] maniche04:
Dear All,

I was having a very wonderful time with my desire S untill recently when something went bad with my saga that the right edge of the touchscreen did not respond. After a few days, the left edge stopped responding as well.

I searched XDA and googled for the problem and I came to know that replacing digitizer helps. My LCD is very much fine and I'm hopeful replacing just the digitizer will help. I've ordered one from Amazon and I'll be performing the replacement myself, referring youtube videos.

Could anyone please share their experience on replacement of digitizer or problems similar to me?

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] caki25:
I did that a while ago... Though i had a cracked digitizer instead od an unresponsive one... You should be fine with the video guides. Some of the parts (like the camera cover) will put some resistance though. You'll also need to be careful with the screen as it is glued to the frame. If you will, you should be able to reuse it :) and watch out for the cable ;)
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
It's a fairly easy procedure and I have done it on a couple of DSs before.

Just do yourself a favour - take it slowly and follow the instructions closely. Especially when it comes to heating the old tape to separate the digitiser and the LCD - if you try to force it off at all you run a very real risk of cracking the LCD as it's a fragile bit of kit.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
That is interesting... I'm curious how this would actually work though. If I understand right (in the US anyway), cables transmit digital encrypted signals nowadays, and require a special receiver. I don't know exactly how much TV is really broadcasted in airwaves anymore.

Regardless, such a device is likely to work fine in the N10, especially if it's shown working on a N7.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3DSammy:
This is an OTA (Over the air) receiver so cable transmissions and encryption is not involved. You could not attach a Cable company's coax to this device. Around the world HD over the air transmissions are still alive and well but the number of receivable channels vary greatly along with transmission standards (e.g. ATSC, DVB-T, DVB-T2, ...).

Here is the manufacturers web page for this device: http://www.elgato.com/en/eyetv/eyetv-micro

The good news is that Nexus 10 compatibility is mentioned but it would appear OTA transmissions in North America are not supported.

"EyeTV Micro works in Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Austria, Poland, Spain, Switzerland as well as any country that broadcasts standard definition MPEG-2 or MPEG-4/H.264 video. High definition channels, encrypted programs and/or DVB-T2 broadcasts are not supported."

There maybe a North American variant of this device but I did not find it. Also the Amazon web page did not have any technical details that I could find.

In general any "Rabbit-Ears" antenna configuration's ability to receive a signal will vary day-to-day and with the weather. Just ask anyone trying to receive an OTA transmission inside a condo/building.

As for working with the N10, they claim it works with a Stock ROM, but your experience may vary with your favourite custom ROM. I have an Ethernet Adapter which works great with a Stock ROM but is hit and miss with various custom ROMs.
