[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] rkdss:
Friends, I have a doubt.

In the past inverted internal memory of my device with vold.fstab, then I started using oLink2SD.

Nowadays, use Link2SD with swap partition of 256 MB. But I see that the ROM's current support for both services. What is more suitable for use in the present day? My swap partition Link2SD is already activated or do I need to do some procedure to activate it?

Sorry, because I am noob to these matters. :eek::eek:

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] frzramadhan:
Link2SD is enough

I use it, and I can install any apps.

I have 8GB SDCARD and I make 2 partition, 6GB with FAT and 2GB with EXT4 [ for Link2SD ]
[General Questions and Answers] cowls192:
Ok, i watched your sign-up video, i read the READ BEFORE POSTING posts, i searched the search, and there is NOT ONE STRAIGHT answer to the most obvious and common issue: su binary update.

There is no official thread titled "su binary" which would be NICE if somebody post a link to the latest version of su binary, tells people which version of Superuser app it is compatible with (i know there's at least 3, CWM, ChainSDD, and Chainfire) I cant even google this binary. I cant even tell if somebody is developing on this binary.

I just don't understand how nobody brought up this issue in any manner. Nobody asked whether the binary code is available in the market, needs to be downloaded from the web and flashed on the phone, etc. In worst case scenario, if su binary is discontinued, then just say "It is no longer supported. Forget about rooting from now on."

I have T-Mobile GS4 (SGH-M919) running Android 4.2 baseband UVUAMDL, i rooted the phone using MotoChopper that gave me Superuser app by CWM.

If you can be ANY help, please reply with some kind of answer that somebody can actually understand. If you have no clue about a single word i just posted, there you go. There is no answer to this "su binary" issue, so forget about rooting and what not. Save your soul from googling 5 hours a day here and web, looking for answers that no one ever asked.

You're very welcome. :eek:

Superuser update

Cowls192,

There are a couple of ways to update SU ... I can share at least two ways.

1) If you have experience using Terminal and can get a hold of the updated SU binary, then you can simply copy it to

the appropriate place. I forget whether the location of the original SU binary is under the /sys or /system folder.

2) I'm quoting from DroidXForums here so take it for what it's worth ..

"The new superuser : su v2.3-ef can also be downloaded from the Google market."

I hope that this small bit of information shows you that the answer CAN be found with patience. ;)

Lacking patience ... this IS a great place to find help!

If you found this to be of help, please condiser clicking the THANKS button.

[General Questions and Answers] cowls192:
Couple things to straighten up here.

Okay, the whole problem with "su binary update failed" is because my phone was NOT rooted. End of that story.

After my phone was rooted successfully, it didn't ask me to install su binary, being out of date, nothing like that.

At this point, i will just assume that whenever app is released/updated, let it be Superuser SuperSU or else, the app itself includes su binary already.

It is still difficult to find answers and solutions for folks who are new to smartphone or Android world...and i mean VERY new, like he/she just got an Android phone for the first time in life today!! A lot of unnecessary questions and replies can be reduced if SOMEBODY creates FAQ or intro to rooting and flashing tips.

Finally, i have T-Mobile GS4 (SGH-M919), and although i read a post saying that su binary is not compatible with SuperSU at this point, (see, it's even harder to search for posts i read recently) after successfully rooting my phone, SuperSU DID NOT ask or even say anything about "su binary" whatsoever, so that made me smile today. :)

Thanks for those who took few seconds to read my posts, and i really hope somebody is being helped after reading these messages.

Hi. Im a noob and I am trying to update the su binary. I have a galaxy tab s. I just recently did the super su root but I cant. It installed correctly but the binary won't update.

[General Questions and Answers] idioleat:

me three.....I can,t update....

I used kingroot app, then superSU-ME, and superSU told me to update the su binary.(Another superuser app told me that my binary still remained "kinguser_su(348)")
[General Questions and Answers] Sweetlove:
Same here, from a nexus 6p

I have a Nexus 6p which I thought was already rooted, but when I used the root checker, it says my phone isn't properly rooted. Also, when I try running Super User it keeps saying that I'm missing the su binary or that it needs to be updated. I have no idea what the next step is now. Can someone help me figure out what I need to do?
[General Questions and Answers] northwindtrades:
Those still having trouble ensure your device is rooted and also if su still can't install binary try another version some versions have trouble installing binary.
[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
POST FOR EVERYONE WHO HAS TROUBLE FINDING/UPDATING THE BINARIES:

1. The SuperSU app version number corresponds to the su binary version. To check the version of the su binary go to Settings --> Apps --> SuperSU and look at the version number.

2. SuperSU app will push a notification if the binary needs to be updated.

3. You will also see a popup window once you open the SuperSU app in case there is a new version

4. To be sure you have the latest version you can follow one of the links below which will have the download for the latest recovery-installable zip that will root and install the SU app along with the latest binaries:

Stable (recommended): http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu-stable

Beta: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu-beta

Latest: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

5. There is a thread dedicated to binary update problems. You will have more luck there: http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/support-update-failures-t2907365

6. Also remember to visit the official post for any future updates and extra info: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

NOTE: In most cases you have to update the SU app to get the latest binary version.

Any news about JB brazillian rom?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:
ICS still 6.1.B.0.544 and no JB.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] GregórioAxiaMagno:
Probably the JB in Brazil will be late, and this isn't something new. My bet: 4 or 6 months more. Isn't Sony fault because the ROM is already being distributed outside. My friend (that extracted the ICS for me) flashed the stock generic world JB, a delicious jelly bean.

For the noobs: Xperia stock ROMs can be normally flashed with Flashtool without any modifications or root or bootloader unlock. In this case, just have your stock previous ROM to put back, just in case.

Cya folks!

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] revile:
Hi everyone,

I've got 3 weeks left before heading overseas for volunteer service. I'll be Lesotho, Africa for 27 months and surprisingly, they have cellular/edge/wimax/3G services there.

Has anyone unlocked our phone for GSM use before? I just want to get the facts straight before calling them up. I have my Dinc2 which is rooted and running CM7- will I need to flash stock to get the unlock prompt after they give me the code? Or will the prompt still display on a custom ROM?

I have a 2nd Dinc2 I just picked up on ebay. It is still "locked" as well but all stockified. I've read big red only allows 1 unlock per year.. but I bet with enough persistence I can get it done.

Thanks in advance

-rev
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] startrek1312:
The phone itself is unlocked. If you plan to use Verizon service, I don't think you have to do anything. If you want to use local service provider there, you have to "Sim unlock" Dinc2 by calling Verizon and request MEP code. This can only be done in stock rom as far as I know. After unlocking Dinc2 to use different carrier sim, you can reflash with a custom ROM. So far I have tested and it works with CM7 rom in the States but at the moment MROM is not working with me when I'm back to Vietnam so I have to investigate further. But that is the general process.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] revile:
This is exactly the advice I was looking for. Thank you very much startrek. I planned on using MROM but I'll be sure to have a copy of Official CM7 in the event it doesn't work.

Also, I'll note that VZW gave me the 2 unlocks codes for both my vivows, even though one of them was purchased on ebay. The customer service was surprisingly helpful.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] startrek1312:
After spending a whole day testing and trying out, I finally figured out what was going on with MROM. Apparently the latest version of it (20130401) is not able to keep the phone sim unlocked after the first reboot when you are done flashing. I tried to downgrade from 2013-04-01 to 2013-02-15 without wiping data but the problem still existed. However, if you do a fresh reflash (wiping data, cache and all that jazz) of the 2013-02-15 version, the phone will work with GSM and it will NOT lock the sim back again as it happened to me with 2013-04-01 version.

The link is here if you still need it. http://goo.im/devs/mmontuori/mrom/vivow

However, I am still unable to get the data working. I've been trying but it hasn't worked. Probably have to take it to Customer Service Rep to figure it out. Other than that, voice and texts are fine.

And yes, Verizon rep are very comfortable with giving you the MEP code for some reason. They probably have had a lot of people requesting the same thing.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
A # of newcomers and semi-related questions about Sim-unlocking the GSM radio so that it can work with Sim cards other than VZW/vodafone Sim pre-installed in the DI2 - let me share my limited expertise in this area.

You do NOT need to flash the RUU before calling for the unlocked code from VZW - if you want to be as close to stock as possible, download AndyBone's ROM as his link is apparently down - I posted Dropbox link to mine, in case anyone is looking for it - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1219471&page=184 (see post #1831) Or, just use Nit's TSM Sense 5"m" with or w/o Ext.4 option - based on Sense 2.1 - that's what I use when I travel abroad.

To verify, (borrow one if you do not have it) a working AT&T Gophone (prepaid) Sim from someone (or, a T-Mobile prepaid Sim, although it's a bit more work to modify the APN to get data & the account has to be provisioned for it) - put the Sim into the DI2, power up & change network to GSM only - and you should be good with voice & SMS. Make a test call to confirm that you can dial out and receive incoming call on that mobile # - you do NOT want to find out that it's not working traveling inside Mexico, Japan or somewhere in Europe or what not.

For mobile data on your GSM provider to work - you need to confirm that APN settings are valid & working - and that it is saved to the device. Those are your APN Name, Proxy, Port, Username, Password, MMSC, etc. - some are blank, others are carrier-specific, etc. AT&T has theirs, ditto for T-Mo and other GSM providers. If they are not set or incorrect, mobile data might but most likely not work - generic settings for Android phones should be sufficient, but not always. If yours aren't working, confirm that the Sim card is valid & working on an unlocked quadband phone and try again. It is sometimes possible for the carrier to do OTA download to update the device so that SMS/MMS & mobile data can work by loading the APN's to the device, otherwise - it has to be done manually by going to the sub/menus.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] startrek1312:
Thank you for such an informative post. Apparently I've been setting up my APN wrong. I have to set my APN Type to be "default, supl" After I did that, it's up and running! I blame Vietnamese carrier for NOT being helpful whatsoever! But thanks so much!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
Happy to hear that you got it working - by any slim chance, it's MobiFone in HCMC, last used one of their prepaid Sim 3 years ago, voice was easy and just work. Our bilingual English tour guide tried all day as we got it while stopping for Pho near one of the older market in District 1, and no luck at all. Back at our hotel, we tried using the online website for self-help and it wasn't useful either, details within the English website were mostly in Vietnamese, except for the pictures - and, looked like nothing much has changed. This is off-topic, another recommendation for a local mobile provider should we plan another visit in the future?

Take care & have fun - and are you now getting 3G speed or at least showing that on the screen?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] startrek1312:
I'm glad you are thinking about returning to Vietnam. Most people don't after their first visit lol. I personally use MobiFone in Vietnam and I don't plan to change that. Their voice quality is really good and Customer Service number is toll-free unlike another popular carrier Viettel (or at least it was when I left Vietnam). I really enjoy using them and would recommend you to use them as well.

Are you talking about trouble getting SMS work or just data? My friend uses Galaxy Note 2 and everything automatically got set up and ready to go (APN and SMS centre) after she just popped the SIM in her phone so I blame the Dinc2 for being so troublesome. I can post their APN setting down here if you want to. I had to do a little bit of Googling but it shows up in the first 5 results.

And yes I am able to get 3G speed. MobiFone uses Hspda+ in Vietnam.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TLRtheory:
When I switched over from a black to a white Xperia Play, I ended up having to go with a used one. The bootloader was unlocked and it arrived running some version of ICS (which I immediately got rid of after finding out some of my most played games didn't work right).

The front camera has never worked for me. The back one works fine but if I even attempt to switch to the front camera, I get a prompt reading "Can't connect to camera," the app crashes, and I end up having to clear the camera's data and reboot before I can even use the back one properly again. The flex cable had been replaced, and from that it seems easy to deduce that my front camera issues might have been caused by an improper flex cable replacement.

I'm wondering though.. could it be a kernel issue caused by whatever kernel was tied to the ICS rom this arrived with? I used FlashTool to put the stock 2.3.4 generic NA rom on here (same one I've always used) and figured that would restore everything to normal.

...the front camera isn't scoring any high marks for quality, but I miss video hangouts on Google+
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
Its been a common problem for me the front camera broke on all three of mine :/ the two that survived one has a green front camera now and the other just doesnt work (cannot conect to camera)

I must say Im abit heavy handed and all of them have had a tough life lol

So it seems like the previous owner maybe was the same

And yes a full ftf flash will wipe kernel theres even a ftf to flash that will re-lock bootloader but personally I wouldnt its fun testing different Roms and conparing them to stock

I allways do witb my 2 xplays

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TLRtheory:
Thanks for the response! That eases my mind a bit. This Xperia Play has a couple physical blemishes so I'll probably just buy another one sometime soon and be free of that camera issue that way.

Hi,

I'm planning to make a car kit for my xda2 using a second-hand car kit from another phone, a spare cradle and some creative thinking.

My aim is to make an installed car kit with the following features:

1) Charge the phone from the car battery.

2) All phone and pda audio to come from the car speakers, not the pda speaker.

3) Easy to put in and take out of cradle.

4) Able to use voice activated software via installed car mic.

I will document what I do (with photo's) here and try to put together a step-by-step guide, but I could use some help.

Has anyone tried this with any amount of success? I have seen the connector pin diagrams etc on the wiki site. Can anyone add to these?

Just as imporantly, has anyone tried this and fried their xda2??? :?

Please post your advice here and I'll let you know how I go.

Serious : All the info needed is on this site, and/or in my head. Theoreticaly it should work, but it doesn't.... Biggest problem is that the XDA2/MDA2 ONLY gives audio trough the bottom connector if you're in Call, so forget voicedialing or TomTom over the carkitspeaker.

Easyest solution is to build a carkit with you can connect to the headset connection.

[General Accessories] Carlos:
I spent many hours doing this with an XDA I, and got something sort of working but not what I really wanted. Here are some notes...

The XDA I has a horrible ground loop problem on both the input and output. I don't know if the II has the same problem, but I imagine so.

The output is very low, requiring a pre-amp. And because of the above, it had to be ground-isolated, which adds a lot of complexity (for someone like me who is MANY years past high school electronics class...).

Ericsson and Nokia car kits require some proprietary signalling in order to function, so they were useless as a starting base.

The built-in mic is actually quite usable in-car, producing a slightly hollow and distant sound but not horribly so. It has quite effective echo cancellation.
