It's all going into my head. gonna look in second hand shop in uk to see if I can get a s2 cheap with network prob to see if I can get it to run. If not I'll strip it.

Edit. Bin looking and z3x repair box will let you put in a imei number. I think z3x will end the efs prob as you can put in any imei number and as we have a copy on back of phone we will use this ;)

It is worth a try. My IMIE changed to 0049xxxxxx mistakingly, I was messing around and all the networks here worked perfectly so I backed up my original EFS and this one for incase something went wrong. I now have my original IMIE back on my phone both seemed to work fine, I just saw other threads where they said it gave them problems or something like that :confused: but it didn't seem to do anything negative network worked fine and everything else.

Thank you for the feed bk. Were in the world are you? Think probs are to do with were you live. in uk some networks wont let a blocked imei make calls but others do. Strange how some make big deal about it and some not. That 00000whatever is samsungs imei . Think for testing in factory maybe. Im reading lots about it. But not sure. Bit by bit its going in my head. Anyone no if the efs folder is still on s4 or if sam have took it away? Anyone rooted a s4 yet?

Edit: sa see profile.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicman692:
No problem :) I'm from South Africa, does this imie work in the UK though? Yeah it is strange I experienced no problem but maybe some service providers blacklist the imie by Samsung for some reason as that's the only reason I can think of why people would be experiencing problems and here if you blacklist your phone you cannot make calls or sms but you can use the internet still :eek: I thought it may be Samsung's imie.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z_one:
Glad to know your problem was solved. 4.0.4 is yet another ICS version, not JB.

Whatever your do, do not use any 4.0.4 version as they all have the eMMc brickbug. Either stay on ICS 4.0.3 or migrate to JB 4.1.2 (under 4.1.2 avoid I9100XWLSD as it also has the eMMc brickbug if my information is correct).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nadastry:
Hi.

I will get my i9250 soon, could you tell me which would be the "best" Custom ROM for me?

Things I need in the kernel:

2-way-call recording

VPN capability, I was using VPNC Widget because of Cisco VPN at my University.

ROM needs:

fast and snappy

no force closes

no OC

good Battery useage

I am coming from ZTE Blade and Dell Streak 5. Both had Android 2.3 on them, both had Custom ROMs, but these were modded stock ROMs.

I made the experience that modded stock roms are working better than CM Roms. CM7 in that case.

Can you tell me if this is still true for the Nexus?

Would a modded stock rom fit my needs and still be better than a CM?

I had to use VPNC Widget, because I could not connect to my Universitys Wireless Lan.

Could you tell me if Android 4 is capable of connecting to a Cisco VPN without using VPNC Widget?

Thanks in Advance

I am some sort of amator here...

I was wondering that how can i get my internal sd fully deleted and wiped...

And after that flash offial JB with odin?

Sory about my bad English...:D
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] seking:
You mean factory reset and install. If you install JB via kies your internal sd card will not be erased. If you install through odin from pc evrything will be wipe(except external sd card). If you install via mobile odin internal sd will not be erased unless you tick factory reset in the options.
[HTC One X+] vocina:
Hello to all, since they are at the beginning of my experience with the ROM I want to know some information

How do I install the updates via OTA from 1.0.6 to 1.0.7 As soon as I downloaded them where to position them? What should I do before installing the ROM? I need to change kernel?

Thanks
[HTC One X+] mr_breaks:
i did the ota update too today. you just have to go to the usual update section under info in your htc menu. then update to 1.0.7.

a kernel change isn't needed if it worked with your 1.0.6 rom.

hope this helps...

cheers ;)

Hey guys,

I made a bootanimation for the HTC One .

Its in 30fps and will show you the HTC One advertised slogan " Everything your phone isn´t" in a nice way ! :)

Its 20mb. Sorry I couldn´t make it smaller but you get a high quality animation.

Preview gif (shows only the first part, there are 2 parts afterwards <slogan>, i couldn´t make the gif bigger)

Download

Its not flashable. You have to move it to /data/local (or to the right directory if your ROM uses a different location + rename it to bootanimation.zip or htc bootup )

and replace the old one. (use adb or ES file explorer on your phone)

Make sure the permissions are set correctly:

rw

rw

r

then reboot.

Enjoy.

There should come a few more sooner or later :)

QR-GPS is a Plugin for popular app QR Droid. It adds ability to create a QR code from your current location, using your GPS or Network providers. Then, you can share that location easily.

This plugin can't be launched by itself. You need to get QR Droid 4.1 (or greater) for free in order to use it.

To make it short: QR-GPS Plugin and QR Droid, together, can get your GPS location automatically and generate a QR code from it.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rumblur:
My Dinc2, like everyone else's, has terrible reception. (relatively speaking). About a week ago, it went from tolerable to dropping calls like crazy. The db use to be in the 90's, but it has since pegged at 105 and stays there no matter what - indoors or outdoors, unless I'm downtown where a tower is almost in sight. WHY did this degradation happen? I flashed from the 320 radio to the 312, no change at all. I am running the Magnolia ROM, after having tried the others. The reception was doing fine up until a week ago....

Yesterday, I put my flashlight in my pocket, which has a magnetic base. When I used it later, I noticed something stuck to the magnet... it was a "U" shaped piece of metal. It was very defined, then it occurred to me it wasnt a U, it was a C. The "C" from the "HTC" on the back cover. The H and the T were already gone. So I wonder... if these being metal had anything to do with the antenna being in the back cover? Could these tiny pieces of metal be contributing to the reception? Or their loss being a determent?

If you have the metal HTC letters on your back cover, could you check your db rating then pop them out, and check it again? Strange request I know... but all in the name of science! :)

I would give anything for the Dinc2 to have Motorola like reception.... it's almost perfect, except for that.
