And for anybody using Itel it1501 i have compiled clockworkmod recovery for you...:D sadness is that u have to b rooted to flash it bcoz the device has no fastboot. To root simply download these two file.

AdbDriverInstaller for pc.

IRoot 1.7.9 English version for pc

#enable usb debugging in developer option. by default this is hidden so enable it by tapping multiple times on the 'build number' in the about phone.

#now run the AdbDriverInstaller then connect phone. let phone popup, click on it and click on install driver.

#now install iroot then run it... wait for it to recognize your phone... the root button will appear the click on it. if the phone reboots the u r successful.. now disconnect it.. THIS METHOD WORKS FOR 98% OF SPREADTRUM PHONES.

#Install Flashify from play store and use it to flash the recovery image in the link you will get if you pm me.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Izoh George:
Finally goodnews on flashing the recovery.img on non-rooted devices. The files am going to ask you to download i uploaded them to 4shared so you'll hav to go there, search and download. You'll need a pc for working.

Download

*research download 1.7.xxxx (i named it this way for uniqueness)

*itel it1501 fdl files (i.e fdl1 and fdl2)

#At this point am assuming you have the drivers installed and cwm recovery.img at hand.

Extract research download to pc then run the application file.

Click on the settings button.

Load the fl1 and fdl2 files by right clicking on the location path for each string/column.

Load cwm recover.img the same way.

Unmark all other field leaving the above three only.

Click ok and then click the download

Power off your device completely by removing then reinserting the battery.

Connect it to pc on power off state. Once you see "pass on the screen" disconnect and try booting into recovery by pressing power button immediately followed by volume down. Release all when logo appears. It shldnt vibrate during this booting. Vibration means you are booting into the system.

There is any way to restore a galaxy w i8150 (with cm10) to stock, in order to use original warranty? I root this smartphone and flash custom rom from clockwork recovery, never use odin or any other tool for firmware flashing...

(My battery swelled up, I should flash back to stock before send it, right?)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Ahmed.ragab:
i think they will not change battery as you still in warranty
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mat7bit:
thanks for your answer.. are you sure? I don't think that this damage should be my fault..
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
In order to go back to original state of your phone, you need to use Odin to flash stock rom. Find the official rom for your country and use Odin to flash it. There is an how to in either general or development sections here in xda forums.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Ahmed.ragab:
try and see

for me my battery bulged before my warranty end

but i bought another one without going to Samsung center
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mat7bit:
And after flash the stock rom, I get back warranty?

here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1467128) the first thing that the guy says is that the warranty will be avoid...
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
True if you give your phone to service center with a custom ROM like CM10, they may reject your warranty claim. However, with flashing the stock ROM via odin you should be fine since it makes everything as it was when you bought the phone.

Just make sure you follow the steps in howto threads carefully. It might be a good idea to wipe system etc. in CWM before getting the phone in download mode to flash via Odin.

Good luck on your warranty claim and I sure agree with you on bloating battery not being your fault.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mat7bit:
thanks to all for your answer, I call a samsung service center and they answer me that usually they don't cover battery with warranty, maybe in some case, within 6 months, they can make a favor and change it, but my battery is finally out of warranty (very strange thing!).. I'll find it on other channels, so I can have my phone back in one week
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
Even if battery is out of warranty, you can buy a replacement for a cheap price. They are not that expensive. It will save you the hassle of waiting for the service center. On top of that, you don't have to flash the stock rom. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyOr:
Well, after a while (too much time) with dual boot ICS ROMs - Stock 4.0.3 LPG & PFittech ROM 4.0.4 (with siyah kernel), I kinda lost with all the new ROMs, all looks the same but one have options that other haven't and vice versa....

First I wanna know if there is any stable JB ROM (AOKP, not intresting in Stock)?

The 4.2.2 ROMs are stable enough? what the main problems this ROMs have?

I made a pool, just to know a little bit more about the statistic (if someone will cooperate :D) of how many users using each ROM, also can post here and share recommands...I want to flash a new ROM and hope to get some info before I'm doing that
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raagh:
Aokp 4.1.2 official is perfectly stable n works great with siyah kernel 5. Its has no problem at all.

Some roms 4.2.2 are not perfect.they work well but most of them have a very poor battery duration.

In my opinion the only 4.2.2 roms i d use d be: sentinel rom. Aokp. Slimbean. I tested a lot of roms 4.2.2( cm rootbox carbon hct thinking etc) n in this 3 i had no problems at all n good battery life( liquid smooth 2.4 is also great. But liquidsmooth team stop supporting our device so the rom file is lost)

Oh yes, this is a better ROM thread.

Sent from the little guy
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyOr:
Don't know where you find any mention to "bettet/best" rom, all I ask is if the JB roms are stable enough to flash (its been a while last time I've checked) and just for the record to know which rom ppl here using (from the above, cuz all of them looks almost the same)

I also would like to know if there is any bugs or something I should know about the new versions before I'm flashing it.

But if you don't want to help with this, its fine by me.

[MENTION=5306314]Raagh[/MENTION] - thanks for reply mate, good to know that the 4.1.2 versions are finally stables!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
There are bugs, as always. We got threads about it and fixes for -almost - all of them.

There's no "better ROM" mention, you're right. Tho there are a couple of queries about how stable are those ROM you happened to mention.

You need to try them out one by one or you can read the 1000 pages of the official jb thread sticked in the general forum.

That being said there's no room for any advice on what ROM you should flash, so it won't be -as- a better ROM thread.

Sent from the little guy
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slimlo:
as gastonw said

just adding on ...:)

all depends oh what flavor you like ...:) all the ROM's have there own features dislikes and likes to every individual person... as in kernels as well its matter of preference of what you like :) ...good luck hope you find the one you like :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Its perfectly clear that this is basically a "What is best rom" thread which is against the rules!

If you want to know what is the best/most stable or however you want to put you should TRY THEM AND FIND OUT!

All these type of threads do is result in the same subjective opinions nothing more, If you want those kinds of threads dont create new ones use the search button!

Also READ sticky topics!

Thread reported for obvious reasons!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Sheer laziness :-/
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyOr:
Maybe its because of the poll that I've opened you may tought its "another BEST rom thread".

Seems like some people here getting 'self-righteous', since the last time I've visited...

A simple question that become a spam one, thanks to the 'righteous' "guards" // AKA bootlickers.

I pretty 'seated' about flashing new ROMs, I know most of you don't, but I've flashed a lot of ROMs before I've got the two I mention at the first post, you can call it lazyness, I call it doing home-work before flashing 10 ROMs, I prefer focus on 2 or 3 ROMs to check...

Anyway, I have no idea how to delete the poll (some dumbs may thought its 'what is better rom' post because of this stupid poll, the aim was to see the distribution of the people who use these popular roms, but no one never choose anyway.)

Still - I've got my answers, thanks to [MENTION=5306314]Raagh[/MENTION] [MENTION=5015324]gastonw[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4642756]slimlo[/MENTION] for the informative answers, I naively thought it was a simple question and after a while people could direct me more to something specific.

You can close this thread, thanks again for the above guys and for the 'self-righteous'//bootlickers - hope you'll had a better popularity next time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
The question is, why shouldn't you flash & test a bunch of roms to find one that has what you want/one you like the same as almost everyone else here ? The whole point of hanging around a place like XDA is you like messing around with your phone - yourself. Not have everyone else do it for you.

If that's not your bag, you're probably in the wrong place.

[HTC EVO 3D] malikfaraj96:

[HTC EVO 3D] chrisg553:
can you please be more specific? im new to all this... i wiped dalvic and rebooted and its still in a boot loop
[HTC EVO 3D] malikfaraj96:
Go into recovery, wipe data,cache,dalvic twice. Flash the ROM them wipe cache and dalvic
[HTC EVO 3D] chrisg553:
why isnt recovery working???
[HTC EVO 3D] malikfaraj96:
Try flashing a ROM maybe u have a bad backup

[HTC EVO 3D] chrisg553:
will this work? im downloading the files now? do u think my phone can be fixed?
[HTC EVO 3D] malikfaraj96:
As long as its not hard bricked it should be
[HTC EVO 3D] chrisg553:
how can you tell if its hard bricked? i can get into recovery is that a good sign?
[HTC EVO 3D] malikfaraj96:
Your phone would not be able to turn on at all...ever. usually happens when u flash the kernel/ROM for the wrong device
[HTC EVO 3D] chrisg553:
ok so in other words im not totally screwed? i just need to figure it out :(

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraemeEvans:
I've just started using my new Iocean x7 elite (android 4.2.1.)

The phone comes with 32gb and has an sd card slot, which i have a further 32gb in.

to begin with it was set to install apps to the sd card by default. Which i don't want because i use the sd card with other devices, it's more for music, pictures, video etc that i want to be able to move around without losing all my apps on my phone.

So in the storage settings i changed it to install to "phone storage". Now heres the problem

The phone has 1,4gb of "internal storage", for the os, system apps etc.

the rest of the 32gb of internal is listed as the "phone storage"

and the sd card, listed as "sd card"

from the way it has labeled them it should be installing the apps to the larger side of the built in 32gb. the "phone storage" (roughly 27gb) but it's actualy installing them all to the limited 1.4gb "internal storage" despite the option in the install to... default specifying "phone storage". Is this how it works by default? Is there any way i can change this? surely if there is the option to install apps to an external sd card it should be able to install them to the internal one as well.

I've attached some images of the settings options.

The phone storage is mounted as sdcard and the the external sd mounts as sdcard2, if thats useful info at all.

Hi,

Just delete telephone storage in storage menu. Than you shoud see 28 gb free.again. it works to me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petertrol:
How can i do that? Thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masterblue:
I have the exact same problem!

Someone please help.

You can only "erase" the "phone storage" in the storage menu.

But that will only create a new, empty phone storage, and the internal storage will stay at 1.5GB for apps.

Details:

3 storages are in the storage-menu:

Internal Storage (1.48GB)

this contains 219MB of apps. My apps install here, which I do not want.

SD card (25.29GB):

contains 130MB of apps, because Shadowgun decided to put a lot of ressources on my SD card. Before that it was like 90KB.

Phone storage(26.77GB):

Is completely empty, except for one "lost.dir" file. I want all apps to install HERE.

Available options are:

Preferred install location:

>Internal device storage (the 1.48GB)

>SD card (which I do not want to install my apps on)

>Let the system decide

Default write disk:

SD card

Phone storage

(selecting phone storage here won't change install location of apps. This is probably for where my pictures will be saved at.

I mostly love the fact that I can used the same back plate and cases I already have and am able to get enough juice for a full days use.

EDIT: And the NFC works like a freaking beast just like OEM. The Anker and Hyperion batteries I've bought that were supposedly "NFC" worked 2 times out of 10 and did NOT work through any of my cases.
