Hummm cool but ...

Did this work in the 7500 L if i take boot of 7500 L working and i put in rom of 7500 , My 7500 L will work ??

Yaa....
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] gabriel2anjos:
i dont think this method would work with those s7500 cyanogenmod roms, because they depend on their jelly bean kernel, that is only for the version without the L, but i havent tested it. anyone was brave enought?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] premington:
I'm having problems completing a firmware upgrade on my wife's Galaxy S2. It's at ICS and I want to get it to Jelly Bean. We're using the horrible Samsung program Kies, which is hosting the update to us. It sees the S2 fine... No problems there. It identifies the phone and tells us there's a newer firmware version we can download. Every time I perform the update, it downloads the firmware and when it reboots the phone, I get an error that the device can't be found and I should try again. When I go in device manager, I see an exclamation point on Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composite Device and it says the device couldn't be started.

It looks as thought, when the phone reboots to download the firmware from the laptop after the laptop has the firmware, Kies isn't seeing the phone. So I did vol-up-down to get it in programming mode and then reinitiated the download. That little trick doesn't work since Kies isn't identifying the device.

I've checked that I have the most current drivers, which I do. I've uninstalled them and reinstalled them and uninstalled Kies and reinstalled Kies and still get the error. I've also already updated the firmware on my Galaxy S3 using Kies on this computer and it worked fine. Now when I do it on my wife's S2, it bombs.

I then loaded Kies on another laptop and it's even worse. It downloads the firmware update and the entire application totally crashes.

I've gone to T-Mobile and they can't help with anything. They suggested turning USB Debugging on in the Developer Options on the phone, which I did. Still, nothing.

I located the hooks in the registry editor for the CDC composite device driver and everything *looks* good, as far as I can tell. Driver is dated 1/23/2013. As I said, it updated the firmware on my S3 fine... It just won't do it on my wife's S2. I don't know what to do. :(

Can anyone provide any advice or help? I've spent about 11 hours on this over two days and am running out of ideas.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sam.balia1012:
First u got check USB debugging ON (on the phone)

disable anti virus on the pc/laptop

kies will put your phone into download mode and will take awhile (Kies is super slow) for good reasons

Also consider rooting your phone and install custom recovery (CWM) and flash all the rom(s) you wish [if that's an option]

hit Thanks if i helped;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] premington:
Thanks for the help, Sam.

I'll try it again with the virus protection off. I disabled the Windows firewall and that did nothing. I've tried it about 12 to 15 times, which takes a long time because Kies takes so long to download what it needs.

Can I root a T-Mobile phone? I used to have a Motorola Atrix 2 and rooted that and did manual firmware and ROM upgrades, but that was an unlocked and rooted phone. I'm afraid I may screw up the phone or my T-Mobile service by rooting it and doing custom installs. Does anyone have experience with this on a T-Mobile phone they purchased at T-Mobile? I don't want to mess the phone up.

At this point, I think that's the only way I'm going to go Jelly Bean on my wife's phone.

-Paul
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] The Sickness:
Rooting your s2 is simple and easy to do. Go to the dev section and look at the threads on how to do it.

You will use Odin to flash a custom recovery such a TWRP whick will install supersu. At that point you can flash the ROM of your choice and not have to deal with Kies anymore.

Hope this helps

I have been doing some serious researching lately and found a port of Google Now for ICS... I also have just put Kinology on my Kindle, which is a deodexed ICS ROM, making it compatible with the port. I also found (somewhere in the vast ocean named "The Internet") a copy of GNow Handlebars. I currently do not have WiFi (only ethernet). Should I go ahead and try it to see if it will work?

[AT&T LG Optimus G] lesavntura:
Hi everyone !!! :) soon i'm going to buy an Optimus G and i read in the forums that since is the same hardware (virtually) as the nexus 4, it can be converted into a nexus 4, i've been reading quite a while about the subject and learning how things work on the Optimus G, but i can't find any users opinion about it and i can't find any videos of the conversion working so i created this thread so anyone who wants to share his expierence about the conversion or anyone who wants to share videos or photos of the conversion working it can be posted here
[AT&T LG Optimus G] g33k3r:
No need to do the conversion as we can run mako kernel natively now.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] lesavntura:
how is that o_0 ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
Modified mako kernels, not ones from n4 forums.

The 4.1 update gave the tz and rpm that was needed.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] lesavntura:
so are you saying that the rom's like PA3.15 in the android development section work on the optimus g as they would work on a nexus 4, but still why don't turn the optimus g into a nexus 4 completely and install all the nexus 4 goodies ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
We are referring to all the 4.2 ROMs in the optimus g android dev section like root box, chaos, aokp, liquid smooth and cm10.1 in original dev section.

How'd you come to the decision to convert and go to a n4 ROM? To each his own, but there's some pretty good Roms in the android Dev section and who knows what else to come.

And lolol what is with the random flexing..
[AT&T LG Optimus G] lesavntura:
i like the feeling that im using a 100% stock AOSP ROM and if the device is almost like 98% identical as the Nexus 4 why not do it, its a shame that the developers do not support the conversion no more, and with the flexing lol i was bored lol
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Murasakiii:
It's not supported because the long-run effects aren't known, and there's nothing wrong with the AOSP/AOKP/CM/PA ROMs we have. But good luck with it!

I was tempted to convert for the longest time. Finally got the nerve the day we got AOSP, so no need in my book. I used rootbox for a while, but it started acting screwy on me recently. Switched to liquid smooth tonight and seems even better.

Turns out, I didn't need the AOKP/PA bloat, and this kernel feels even better than Houcha's did

Hello all, we have three people on an ATT plan, two of those people (the primary account holder and a secondary line) expire on May 1. We all want to go to T-Mobile, but the secondary line needs to get a phone now.

I am the third line on the account and my contract is up in September. The primary can't leave until September then. However we can take the secondary line and switch it now, so that secondary would become a primary.

The question is, if we remove a secondary line from ATT, are there any fees?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecountrylife08:
So I will be 100% honest... I'm the new guy, granted fairly technically minded, I am still having to learn about Android devices. I have only ever rooted one Android device and it was Razr XT912... and it met a fate at the hands of the concrete one day :( rest in peace. Anyways months from contract end I didn't want to pay $600+ for a decent phone so I bought a general phone (Samsung Stratosphere SCH-I405) online. Now I knew that the specs weren't the same and it would not be as snappy but I didn't expect it to freeze ever single time I tried to input something. So I looked under the built in Task Manager, and saw the device was using 320mb/375mb with a good 260mb chuck that never changes (I am guessing that's the OS).

So my question is if the device has an installed RAM module of 512MB why is it only allowing a total of 375mb to be used? Can this be changed through rooting and/or having to also change the ROM on it. I also apologize in advance I tried searching this issue here but did not find anything useful pertaining to this specific ordeal.

Thank you in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikwen:
You could try using a swap partition. It "swaps" parts of the RAM to the SD card. However, your kernel needs to support that, you need to have a rooted phone and it will decrease SD card life. I use Swapper 2 from Google Play for that.

Think about it. ;)

stock rom manages the ram at its best if u can add a few tweaks to it like the v6supercharger

Is there a way of setting Pocket Outlook to display the size of the email that's waiting on the server, instead of the size of the truncated bit that it has downloaded. I have unwittingly downloaded some big (ie expensive) emails because I couldn't see their real size.

If Pocket Outlook won't do this, is there an alternative?

not sure if it's a true alternativ but

most pop3 mail systems olso offer

a webclient option so you can check mails from a browser

i use this option alot because i get about 20->50 spam mails from korea each day (not really sure why because i dont read the language heck my system cant even display the chars :P )

also it's a good way to avoid mail virus's since they dont end up on your computer when you handle your mails using the www interface

Hey guys. As the title says i recently joined the android world through my nexus 4 and yesterday i rooted my phone for the first time using the nexus toolkit. So as i would like to ask some things that may sound foolish, but make me curious, im not gonna delay any longer and just go on. While rooted on stock rom i could see into my apps the SuperSu and busybox free apps.Now that i flashed rasbeanjelly they are gone.Do i need both? If yes should i download from google play or install from sdcard (there is a folder named "!Readytoflash containing these zips plus a "perm-recovery-signed" zip which i also dont know if its needed.) Also as i said now that i flashed my new rom i combined it with matr1x kernelv8.5. Any way to see its settings or edit them through a control app(havent found one yet). I maintly want to see how pgm fuctions work, like sleep2wake but cant see how to activate them etc. Last but not least before i go on custom rom from stock i made a backup thhrough Nexus toolkit and titanium backup.Does it matter where i choose to restore apps from and can i do that even if the restore was from different rom( will manually drag and drop photos on phone hope it works too). Thanks in advance for the help.

Hello!

I'm thinking about buying a TF101 32GB (incl. the keyboard thingy) from a good friend of mine for 1200 SEK (~€140)

The tablet is 1 and a half years old, but he has barely used it.

Everything is completely stock, no root, nothing.

Do you think I should go for it or leave it? Please, motivate your answers :)

Or should I just get another tablet? I don't want to spend more than 1300 SEK (~€150)

I'd mostly use it for:

- movies/tv shows

- taking notes in class

- perhaps a bit of gaming occasionally

- just messing around on the interwebz

Need advice ASAP!

Thanks! :)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZigaG:
Worth it!!!

If you are willing to spend around 150 € you will hardly find any better tablet for the money. You just need to be sure that tablet isn't defected in any way.

In my opinion the Transformer tablets are really great because on the keyboard (fast typing and longer battery life (the dock has battery in it)). The only bad thing I have found about ASUS' tablets is that they don't come with odin flasher. Odin is great to unbrick and factory reset phones or tablets. But I guess that it is exclusive only for Samsung devices (I don't know if for all but my Samsung Galaxy S supports it).

Go for the deal if the tablet is not defected!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrickjaden:
There's a lot of resources here to help you root your tablet and flash roms, etc. I recommend EOS 4 and the Kat kernel :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00429:
Go to your friend and tell him to let you take a look on it. Check every side of the tablet AND the keyboard to not have any defect. Turn it on and test the touchscreen. I recommend to download a free game and a free drawing app to test the touchscreen, and maybe a touch screen test app if it does exist. €140 is worth it if the screen is not cracked, the charger and the usb cable does work and if the touchscreen & keyboard does work without any problems, it is worth it. Ask him questions like "Was the screen or the case cracked?" Or "Did it have any defect and you sent it to repair?". If he does say that he messed up his system some time ago, it isn't really a problem as soon as it is working now.

Again, make sure you ask him about any cracks, defects, issues, repairs, screen scratches, quarranty, screen replacement and everything else and put them in a balance to be sure if it is worth it. I mean.. Don't ignore a cracked screen or a defect, the repair could cost as much as he sells his tablet, and you will just double the price plus you have to waste time with the repairs.

I am writing right now from a TF101, and I have to say that it's working like a charm. It fell down three times: on an iron bench, on the street and on my kitchen's floor and all it has got is some scratches that can almost not be seen, and the alluminium case has a 0.4cm scratch and it got a small curve, but I have to just buy a screen protector and a protector case to make sure next time I won't get it broken. After all these times it fell down on the floor, it works like a charm and without any issues! I paid €400 JUST for the tablet, and you are paying €140 on the tablet plus the keyboard, which will have a touchpad and a keyboard. As the others said: if no defect, GO FOR THE DEAL!

what you can do is give us more info. battery temp? cpu temp? custom or stock? the back glass plate is glass so that your quad core cpu can transfer heat through it, thats how its supposed to cool off. thats why it feels hot. has the temp in your area warmed up for spring? btw, the heat isnt harming your phone. if it gets to hot, it shuts down by itself, as a safety. before that, itll reduce the cpu speed to keep it from getting to the shutdown point.
