[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yippeeyo:
Hello,

I have changed my handset and now have a spare SGS2 (I9100) for learning about the kernel.

I'm running the following stock kernel & rom downloaded from sammobile.com ...

I9100XWLSW_I9100XEULS5_XEU.zip

In order to teach myself more, I am trying to create a replica of my current stock kernel...

3.0.31-1211311

I've downloaded/ familiarized myself with Android SDK, NDK (r8e) and Samsung Open Source (GT-I9100_JB_Opensource.zip).

I've got as far as making a kernel from the Samsung Source, but I've got the following differences:

1. New zImage size is approx 4Mb original zImage (in boot.img from I9100XWLSW_I9100XEULS5_XEU.zip) is approx 8Mb

2. New zImage also compiled 4 Modules in /lib/modules, there are six in the original zImage

Clearly the two are different and this is where I am stuck.

If I unpack the original zImage, I get what looks like a disk image, /data, /dev, /proc etc, if I unpack the new zImage I get two directories /dev & /root both are empty.

The difference in modules is also worrying, makes me think that the config in the original zImage is different to that supplied when I run 'make u1_defconfig'

I've sifted through a lot of forums, tuts and docs to get this far, any dev's help with some pointers? Is it possible to compare kernels?

Thanks,

YYo

**Please save yourself some time by reading the following**

Do not answer with 'I don't know but...'

'...have you tried kernel/ Rom xyz'

'...don't modify your kernel, you'll most likely brick your phone'

'...leave kernel development to people who know how to do it'

'...I am nigerian businessman who has just inherited $2,000,000...'

Bump,... anybody got any ideas how I can find out what was included when the original kernel was compiled (without going back to Samsung)?

Check out this article:

Snip:

Keyboard

The keyboard is actually very impressive. HTC has gone with square keys, largely because the space doesn't allow for the taller oval shaped keys like the Q uses.

HTC has even built in some fantastic logic that -- now that I've seen it -- makes me surprised others haven't done, too. One of the big hassles when working with a limited keyboard is accessing the special characters like punctuation. On this model, when you hold down a letter key, you'll get the alternate option. So if I'm typing an email and hold down the "H" key for a second, instead of an "h", I get a "?".

Am I going nuts? I don't have this feature on my phone. Maybe, it only applies to DASH? But from the pictures in the article I can't tell. Looks like a pre-pro unit, but again- it has blue F keys instead of green on preproduction unit.

Anyone?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Wrong forum, my friend. You'll be better off looking in this thread for the Skyrocket. The Firmware you're after looks to be old and not supported, which may explain why you're having trouble locating a good download, but here is the repository for those older firmwares.

Check out the links above and post any further questions in that forum - the users over there should be able to better help you.

Good luck.

CWM or TWRP 2.7.10

My question was moved to this forum. Can you direct me to where I could download CWM .tar or twrp 2.7.1.0-vincom.tarmd5. every time I go to the sticky where I am directed to and click on the firmware link am just directed to a link that is going to download a bunch of software to my computer.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Those links direct you to Dev-Host, a highly respectable site that many developers use. That is one of the best/safest places for you to download these files.

If you don't have a Dev-Host account (it's free to sign up for, BTW, and you won't face these ads), you'll be prompted to download MobiGenie before your file download will start. It isn't a big deal and also isn't malware or anything malicious, so no need to worry. Simply cancel that download and click on the black and white 'Download' button to begin your real download.

If you accidentally download the MobiGenie app simply delete it once you have the file you want, again it's nothing dangerous. It's just a way Dev-Host has chosen to make ad revenue. I use Dev-Host and can assure you it's nothing to worry about.

Hi There,

I was just checking out the phone tear-down for the Moto G and saw the front camera is pretty easily replacable. So I was wondering, could I replace the front camera sensor with another higher resolution sensor that fits the same connection slot. Has it ever been done to other phones?

Thanks again, Cheers :)

Hi, my phone just charges when I connect to any PC, it doesn't detect it on the system and even on the phone. I tried to check and uncheck the usb debugging and the logo came back on the phone (but still nothing in the PC). And now whenever i plug it in the usb debug mode comes and when I try to use mass storage option it allows but PC dosnt respond in a matter of seconds it goes away. My friend had flashed my phone with the stock rom 4.2.1 from XDA itself last year sometime in november and after that it has been great. I believed it was a cable fault so I showed it to a repair shop where the guys checkd with their PC and a new cable and none of their PCs detected it, even the OTG cable they tried wasn't detected on the phone. They say its an error in the Jack which can be repaired in a couple of hours for Rs 250. I have no problem in doing that but I don't know if its a jack error or something inside my phone (some sort of setting) causing it. Please help

[LG G Flex] user8755:
Anyone find any good USB charging cables for their G Flex?

I've ordered and tried like over 15 now and none really work like the OEM USB cable... either they give me a slow charger, they fall out of the phone's USB connector, or they won't charge at all.

I've tried like different ones from Monoprice, Fosmon ones, and 2 different ones form BB.

I know its the cables because when I use my OEM LG cable with an old HTC charger it works just fine.

I ordered this 6ft BB Playbook charger over the weekend: http://www.amazon.com/Blackberry-Folding-Blade-Charger-Playbook/dp/B004OZMWUS/ because I've heard people having good results with it. I'll post a review when I get it. Fingers crossed.
[LG G Flex] MyCake:

Hi

I can only recommend this special low-resistance charging cable from PortaPow. :D

Please check out this cable here

I got one of the 2.5 meters version and the charging speed is still awesome with this cable! Its perfect for the bedroom.

[LG G Flex] hawkwind212:
You can buy lg oem usb cable on Amazon. Try search for the cable under different lg phone model. I bought a few pairs for $ 3 each. It don't have necessary said for flex since many other lg phone use the same type of cable.
[LG G Flex] user8755:
I give the BB Playbook Blade charger a C+ for charing the G Flex but a A+ for charging any other Android device.

It charges the G Flex really super fast... prob the fastest out of all the chargers I've tried from what Battery Monitor Widget tells me BUT like all the other USB cables I've tried the connection isn't secure and iif I move or even just do the knock-knock code the cable slips out of the socket.

I did order 2 more off eBay for charging my other android devices... the 6+ ft cord is really useful. Just wish it would fit the G Flex micro USB socket.

Thanks. I'll take a look.

I think this might be the best route because I haven't found 1 USB cable out of 20+ test that will stay in the socket when the phone is moved.

Ive tried multiple cables,but in the car, it will always give me a slow charge (around half a amp,when i think it should be 1.8)

so bacsically i can get no rapid charge while in the car

Again, ive tried multiple cables and multiple chargers. even 2 that were supposed to figure out the max input of the flex, and use that to charge it rapidly. but i ALWAYS get slow charge

the only time I dont is when I plug it into a standard wall charger,it will rapid charge then

what car chargers have yall used that will NOT give you the slow charge?

What do you do to get rid of it? Have root! Suffice it with a full wipe and reinstall the ROM?

Should do, but make sure you wipe internal and external SD also.
[HTC Droid DNA] pissinguoff247:
I currently have CM10.2 on my DNA. I had soft-bricked my phone previously and recovered it using RUU; from there I did the CM10.2 install.

I'd like to wipe my /data partition then push what's necessary to install CM11M8 because of the way it divides up the profiles, but I can't ADB from recovery even after trying the numerous driver fixes that have been mentioned in the forum (naked drivers, etc).

If I wipe /data, there's no OS to boot into and I can no longer ADB to push the files. What are my options?
[HTC Droid DNA] santod040:
Wiping data should not wipe out the OS.

You should just be able to put the file on internal storage, wipe and flash cm11.

Not sure I understand the dilemma.
[HTC Droid DNA] pissinguoff247:
When I do "Format /Data" it wiped the OS. Am I missing something? Or am I only supposed to do "Wipe Data/Factory Reset?"
[General Questions and Answers] killiandarkwater:
First of all, I'm a complete noob. I just joined the xda forum today after a year of following developments especially for custom roms and apps.

I have a pre-owned rooted Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (Android v4.1.1) which the "About Device" indicates is model n7105. I really wanted to "upgrade" its capabilities and features to a level close to Note 3 and/or KitKat goodness. So after reading a lot about how to flash custom ROMS, I tried Ditto Note 3 v5 (http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2589715). Everything went well during the installation but after reboot it got stuck in the logo screen. After waiting for 10 minutes I flashed it AGAIN but with the same result. Finally after waiting for 20 minutes, I restored my phone to its backup. Now my phone can no longer detect my SIM card and my IMEI is null/unknown, even after factory reset. I made a big mistake! Then I remembered that that the original owner mentioned it's a converted E250 KOREAN version but I'm no longer able to contact her. This phone has been rooted and tweaked many times for over a year now, and having it serviced is no longer an option.

I definitely still want to flash DN3 (or any custom ROM compatible with E250) but I also need how to revert E250 to N7105 and fix my "Insert SIM card" problem. So where do I go from here? Any help/comments/suggestions on my specific case would be greatly appreciated! I am willing to learn whatever it takes to get this done and experiment.

Note: I didn't find clear answers to these in related forums and I'm also not yet able to post anything there. Hoping someone knowledgeable and helpful reads this.
[General Questions and Answers] roozxx:
103

I would begin with calming yourself down :]

There's always chance to flash proper rom so don't worry.

Pick up proper DN distribution suitable for Your device and flash again.

Remember to clean system for new rom, wipe data/factory reset and also wipe cache and dalvik cache, format system, and flash the thing again.

Remember that not always rom will boot from the first kick.. it often happens to me (freeze on first screen - not Samsung but the one with Note2 screen), it's as easy as taking the battery off the device and reconnecting it again for awhile and then power on again (sometimes it works in thrid attepmt so be patient, once it runs there should be no more further problems)

I hope You will solve Your problem.

Good luck!

I would take RSD Lite 6.1.6 (just to be sure).

It won't be locked to just Verizon, it will blacklist other US carriers tough. I have no idea about CDMA (seems it won't work), but since the XT907 is a quad-band GSM phone, you could use any GSM network outside the US.

i had to deal with this since i unlocked mine to use GSM and my razr m would not take any OTA updates and i wanted kitkat to unlock my bootloader.

You could try this method, but I believe it's also just for GSM.

If it won't do it for you, you'll need to unlock the bootloader and downgrade back to 4.1.2.

Hi, I'm new here (less than 10 posts), so I can't post this to the correct thread, but I was wondering how much internal space (device memory) is left after flashing a ROM like Villuminati 4.4.4 or Vanir? I am coming from a GB27 JB ROM and my external SD doesn't work, so I only have the internal SD with the device memory, and I'm not going to flash something that leaves me with little room for apps. I appreciate any feedback.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigmike6200:
Go ahead and flash either. I have a spare phone with no external card and I have flashed Liquid Smooth, Villuminati, Revolt, PAC ROM, Dirty Unicorns and Wild for the night with no problems adding apps. Plus I believe the space needed for ROMs have nothing to do with the internal memory. In my opinion Villuminati or Vanir would be the best ones right now. Liquid Smooth is still unable to send MMS other than that, it is a banging ROM. Vanir has the ability to turn off the hardware keys individually as well as a phone proximity setup that switches to speaker if you move the phone from you ear. I would recommend getting an external SD card, but you do not need one to flash a ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] absoluteajk:
Hey, I appreciate it. Ya my external SD doesn't actually work on my phone, I've tried different micro SDs, and tried formatting several different ways, but it keeps giving me prompts saying the card is damaged or unmounted. I will try and flash Vanir later today.:good:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FPSUsername:
xposed has a module that forces camera app to store everything on external sd.

In the most browsers you can set your download path (set it to /sdcard1/downloads)

If you have the music/video/picture files, just move them to your sd card.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Styleshman:
But for Images Dude, i9505 by default stores them to external SD card. But if you see they are going to Internal storage then you can define the path in setting of camera app. for other apps there are also options to save the files on internal storage or external.
