its kinda like bandwidth... the charger doesnt push 2A, the charger's bottleneck is 2A. If the phone charges at 1A, only 1A will be going through the charger regardless of the charger's 2A limitation.

At least that's how i think it is... its been a long time since my Electrical Engineering portion of Intro to Industrial Maintenance in highschool....

hello !!

I'm looking for a Stock 2.3.4 GB systemui.apk for my xperia sola, if you know please share
[LG Nitro HD] KronicSkillz:
so i decided to start a list of tweaks that work good on this phone.

if you need to edit your build.prop and don't want to use a text editor, you can do it in an easier way by getting a build.prop editor from the play store.

many people recomend wiping cache partitions after editing build.prop. i'm not 100% sure if its needed but i have read people recommending it so i thought i'd mention it.

if anyone has anything they want to add just post it and i'll add it to the main page. anything after a # is documentation and should not be added to your build.prop file.

# this is a fix for some video problems to do with layers that started after the nightly from 5/22 i believe it affects rc3 rc4 apps like:

# newsy/youtube/games/etc (verified works on my phone and replaces fix of disable hw overlay after every boot)

debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=2

# Fast Reboot (never used this not sure how it works)

persist.sys.purgeable_assets=1

# Gpu render UI (not tested)

debug.sf.hw=1

# increased battery life from toggled sleep mode (i'm currently testing this one and i'm not getting some of the known bugs other phones get (cannot receive phone calls/voicemail)

# testing on nightly from june 4th. (by this i'm not meaning i experience this issue i mean that is the known issue it can cause on some phones, what i did was make the edits, then reboot,

# then i called myself to make sure the incoming call was working

ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1

pm.sleep_mode=1

# Disable BootAnimation (not sure if this will increase boot speed or not, most likely not or by a fraction of a second it's probably more geared

# toward if you just dont want to see the animation and don't have one you like)

debug.sf.nobootanimation=1

# Keep launcher in memory (i use apex which has this option built in so i haven't tried this but i would expect it works)

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

# Better Touch Response ( i believe this can potentially take more power but only slightly and should be worth it for performance/productivity

# increase

debug.performance.tuning=1

video.accelerate.hw=1

i dont think its worth messing with LCD density of this phone, it's already quite good and i don't believe it's worth the potential issues.

if anyone knows any other tweaks please add them so i can keep this updated, please include weather there are any known bugs and if it works well on your p930/hdnitro

there is ALOT more that can be added but i want to focus on stuff that is known to work on our phone without any issues

p.s. i haven't wiped any cache partitions and everything is working fine on my phones (there are a few i didn't personally but i mentioned it in those comments, if u run into issues you can always try wiping cache, or reverting build.prop file most editors have backup/restore functions for that)

as a general disclaimer even though these are testing working for me, i won't take responsibility for damage to your device.
[LG Nitro HD] KronicSkillz:
everything worked for a while on mine, and but i had an issue with google apps such as tv/movies, and play store after an update to recent daily, what i did to fix it was open build.prop and delete all the entries i added, i left the fix for the overlays but removed everything else, then rebooted and reflashed gapps just to be safe during the reboot (not sure if this is required it might not be) then after reboot (build.prop changes often need reboot to activate) everything seemed to work fine again, i did have one of the google apps force close, i think gmail if i remember right, but it never happened again.

i'm looking further into this and i will give more information when i know more. right now just making sure if anyone else gets the issue they have a fix for it.
[LG Nitro HD] KronicSkillz:
debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=2 is no longer needed to fix video, video bug was fixed in RC5 +
[LG Nitro HD] Boomgawd:
not true

For me youtube is wack on wind 2.2 and RC5 in regular mode, landscape is ok. I still need to set the maxlayer to 2 in order to fix that.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmrune:
I am currently on a non rooted att s3 and my phone consistently speed tests at 12mbps when I am connected to my WiFi. However, I pay for a 25 Mbps connection at my house and the rest of my devices speed test at 25 Mbps just fine. Is there a setting that I am missing or is this something that I should contact att/Samsung about?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Without getting too technical, are you using 2.4 GHz for wifi or 5 GHz? When I switched to my 5 GHz band at home I noticed a huge difference in throughput. You may also want to look at channel bandwidths. 20 or 40 MHz

If you are running 2.4 GHz, do a channel survey and see what your neighbours are using, then move your channel away from theirs if you see a conflict.

When you say the rest of your devices speed test at 25 MBps do you mean wired or wireless?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmrune:
My other devices are wireless. And I am running on the 2.4 GHz. I will check the channel/bandwidth when I get home and see if that helps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cmrune:
Ok, so I tried changing the channel, however that did not help. I was not 100% sure how to check the bandwidth, but when i used wifi analyzer it went from channel 11 to 14, so im guessing that has something to do with it.

Had no luck, and decided to root. Tried on the rooted stock rom and the HyperDrive rom, but both gave me <6 mbps connection when next to the gateway.

My modem/router is a rented one from comcast (their arris docsis 3.0 gateway), so maybe that info will help someone a bit more knowledgeable than me for this problem.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] blackkj:
I've got a working HD2 running Tytungs 4.2.2 - which is great.

A friend has given me their dead HD2 to try to recover it.

When powered on it simply shows a white screen.

When I go into bootloader...the multi-coloured to screen comes up, and indicates SPL-3.03.0000

So I can't try and install HSPL as I understand it.

When I I plug in the USB cable the "serial" turns to "USB" on the bootloader screen

So I thought I'd try flashing a stock winmo rom to see if it came alive, and hopefully downgrade SPL at the same time to then move onto HSPL and Android.

I found RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.66.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe

(lots of the old stock rom links are broken)

I extracted RUU_signed.nbh, renamed it LEOIMG.nbh...copied it to a blank 2gb SD card, put the card in the phone, powered on holding down the vol-down key and just got into the bootloader screen.....

So I'm stuck.....any ideas on what I could try?

Is it worth running the full Rom update utility?

is it just time to dump it?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] blackkj:
Well I noticed the sdcard was formatted fat not fat32! Sorted that put leoimg.nbh back on it and the loader/flasher starts but fails flashing the radio.....reporting 00018003 RADIO FAIL

I tried flashing hspl with hspl4 - hoping if it worked I could try to flash a radio but no luck there....

Most stuff I am finding on searching is people like me blundering about in the dark......binning the hd2 seems a waste but I'm out of ideas on how to move forward....
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Klumpi:
I've got this white screen several times now, and in most cases it worked just to take out the battery and put it back in.

Usually the problem is solved temporarily if u do a task29 and install a clean rom.

With my HD2 the problem appears randomly after 4-5 months...maybe it's some kind of a hardware issue, maybe the RAM?

As far as I see it, there is no clear solution for the white screen..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] blackkj:
I think you are right.

I can't do a Task29 as I can't get HSPL on the HD2.....

(It's running SPL3 so I have to use HSPL4.exe and that fails to install HSLP2.08 and HSPL3.03....)

I'm using this nightly and getting lockups and random restarts. Also, 1/10 of the times I unlock my screen it appears upside down and in high contrast. I've tried fixing permissions. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mmapcpro:
That's really odd about the lockups and random restarts(does your phone have updated firmware?)..but the lockscreen appearing upsidedown once in a while is common among all 4.2.2 roms...just hit the power button 2 more times. This is what I did to flash the rom:

1) Backup current state in recovery (I use TWRP 2.6)

2) Since I was coming froma 4.1.2 rom, I updated my firmware through Odin (this page on Cl3Kener's thread has info on it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41655200&highlight=firmware#post41655200).

3) Go back into recovery and flash the rom, gapps, and custom kernel (the custom kernel is optional...the kernel with the rom is perfect, but I wanted to overclock).

4) Reboot to system, but let the phone sit for 10 minute before doing anything.

5) It was a little sluggish while it was downloading and installing 130 apps from the Play Store, but after that, it's been smooth as butter.

In fact, I haven't flashed the latest nightlies because my phone is running so perfectly, I don't wanna mess with perfection, lol.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheeen:
Hi there,

Something very strange has appears to my Nexus S.

It's been more than one year that my phone works perfectly with ICS 4.04 flashed by recovery and ROM stock, I've never reflashed my phone since this day.

Then two days ago, no more GSM network, can't pass any call or text, but data in WCDMA works perfectly.

I've tried :

- Factory reset

- Cyanogen Mod last ROM

- Tried my SIM card on the Nexus S of a friend --> works perfectly

- Tried my friend SIM card on my phone --> same issues, no GSM but data works in WCDMA

I've search a lot on google and XDA, and I've discovered what was IMEI and /efs.

But it's too late for me, my IMEI is the cursed generic IMEI, not the one written behind my battery.

I've tried to flash with stock ROM Stock Android 2.3.6 (GRK39F) with Odin because I've read that it could retrieve my original IMEI. There was no .md5 file inside so I can't flash it with Odin, else I've flash it with ADB / Fastboot.

Phone start and GSM mobile works !

But I got generic IMEI yet, and data is stuck on edge, no WCDMA.

I was thinking it was caused by the old ROM radio flashed with ROM Stock Android 2.3.6 (GRK39F).

So I've flash using recovery the latest Cyanogen and ROM radio KB3 (which was working great in WCDMA for me before all this mess).

No change, GSM works, but data network is stuck in Edge, even if I force WCDMA in *#*#4636#*#* menu, it keep staying in edge.

I don't understand all of this, but I think this is again link to this generic IMEI.

My /efs folder is not empty, I have nv_data.bin but file is dated from yesterday and I can't find any backup like ".nv_data.bin" or "nv_data.bin.bak".

This story seems to be classic in XDA forum, but it's really difficult for me to find a solution, especially for a Nexus S.

This phone is pretty old, you guys are experienced with it and I really need your help, I like this phone and I don't want to change it =(

Is there any way to regenerate my original IMEI ?

Maybe I'll try a flash with Odin and 2.3.4 GRJ22, I never tried Odin, but it seems sometimes to solve the problem. Do you think it could work ?

I really need your help guys, I'm so sad : /

Thanks for reading this, and thanks again if your reply.

have you tried to use your sim on another phone? the phone is 2 years old and possibly the problem is from the simcard\network.

another option is to check weather your APN's are as supposed to be.

you can check online or via customer service.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheeen:
Thanks for your reply guys.

I've tried the sim in another phone and it works great, the real problem is generic IMEI I guess.

Thanks for your help and your link in PM Setting Out, I think I'll try the second one.... the first can't work with me because my /esf and /data/radio does not have an old backup of nv_data.bin.

I have two questions please :

- How the holy s*** this thing can happen randomly after ONE YEAR of fully founctional phone ? (not a single flash since one year)

- How can it be so ramdom ? I mean, before rom stock flash, GSM does not work but I was having Data (WCDMA). Now, After rom stock flash, GSM is working but Data is stuck in Edge. I can't understand how IMEI can impact such randomly issues.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eytan123:
Well, as you know the IMEI is sent to your operator as long as you have signal.

if the operator doesn't get a valid one problems may occur.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethan_hines:
In order to find out if this really is a EFS problem go into /data/radio/log and cat the nv.log, find a line like this:

MD5 fail. orignal md5 '84373eddf2a1617f795b1c1af650f8a784373eddf2a1617f795b1c1af650f8a7' computed md5

'3eddf2a1617f795b1c1af650f8a7' (rild)

put the phone in airplane mode then use a unix text editor and manualy edit nv_data.bin.m5d and make sure the string of numbers is equal to the string after "computed md5" (in this case 3eddf2a1617f795b1c1af650f8a7) save the file take the phone out of airplane mode then reboot check the IMEI with the *#06#
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheeen:
Thanks a lot for your reply.

I have /data/radio/log/nv.log file.

But I have no checksum in this file, only text like "/data/radio/nv_data.bin does not exist."

This is strange because /data/radio/nv_data.bin file exist.

But in /efs folder, I have a nv.log file too, and in this file I have some checksum.

Any way to do something with this one ?

EDIT : I've tried the manipulation with /efs folder, it does not change my generic IMEI =(

Sure, I verified permissions and owner of file.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethan_hines:
Here are some detailed steps

Ensure you have one good copy of nv_data.bin somewhere on the phone. it could be located in either /efs or /data/radio

Ensure you have a nv.log with at least one line that looks somewhat like this:

MD5 fail. orignal md5 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' computed md5 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' (rild)

where the X's are a bunch of number and letters.

Copy the good nv_data.bin, nv_data.bin.md5 and nv.log to both the sdcard and then via usb put them on your hard drive in a folder called efsbackup

(use either rootexpoler or adb shell to copy the files to the sdcard first)

Open the nv.log and look for the second sting of lines. after the words computed md5 (the first string is the md5 the phone found and the second string is the md5 it was expecting for. if the md5 it was expecting can't be found, it uses the default IMEI 004999010640000

Open nv_data.bin.m5d with a proper unix text editor (I suggest Notepad++ or jedit) and remove the sting of numbers and letters and replace it with the string from the nv.log (the second string after computed md5) and save the file

Go back to the phone and put the phone into Airplane Mode (this turns off the radio)

Copy the files nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.m5d back to the sdcard overwirting them

Using either rootexplorer or adb shell copy the nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 back to the original folder (either /efs or /data/radio (for me it was /data/radio that did the trick))

Using either rootexplorer or adb shell ensure both files have the following attributes Owner:radio Group:radio Owner:RWX Group:R Other:R

Using adb shell type ps (this lists all the running processes) find the one that end with rild and remember the pid

Using adb shell type kill pid# where pid# is the rild process (this restarts the radio)

Go back to the phone and take the phone out of Airplane mode

Reboot the phone

Open up the dialer and dial *#06# (the universal way to get your IMEI it SHOULD be equal to the one written under the battery):svetius:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheeen:
Thanks for the reply, but it can't work.

I have no good copy of nv_data.bin, date shows that all have been generated last week.

So, I'd like to flash the phone with Odin rom stock 2.3.4 AND re-partition with the .pit file.

I've already flash it without the .pit, but my IMEI is still generic, I need the .pit file.

But the .pit file is nowhere, even on samfirmware : /

If somebody got this file, plz send it to me.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethan_hines:
-I too have looked high and low for the Odin file since the Nexus S can be put in download mode holding the volume button while pluging in the micro USB. I did find some odin files but any one who tired them ened up perm bricking their phone.

-If you have a good backup it should restore the EFS partition as well as the RADIO.

-The only other way that I know of, I am afraid is to get the phone JTAGed by Samsung.:(

Good Luck

Hey guys, I've searched around and tried various things and I feel like I am just regressing this thing worse and worse.

Here's what I can recall about my situation:

SL101, rooted using nachoroot and put an ICS rom on it. not sure which. worked great.

decided I would switch ROMs one day and ran into the glitch where if you install too large of a file onto the sd card it reboots in the middle and you have a corrupt ROM.

ended up wiping a lot of stuff and I was stuck with no ROM, CWM recovery, and boot loop.

trying to get back to stock and sell the thing since I left it bricked for awhile and didn't use it much before anyway. so I tried ASUS's website for their stock file and it runs in recovery and I'm back to stock recovery but still a boot loop.

Not sure where to go from here, any ideas?
