[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Aqua1ung:
After seeing the reception iPad2 got, and the projected sales, I very much doubt Apple's on the retreat. Quite the contrary. Again, just so there's no doubt, there's noone out there that wishes Android beat Apple more than me, though by being preoccupied with more grand-scale projects, and in the meantime neglecting many of the smaller (but important) software projects they've launched, Google risks alienating the little man. (You know, the little man that buys smartphones, tablets etc. That one.) Google should hence take a long look back at the many SW projects left unfinished and in disarray, and get them in tip-top shape before launching itself into more global enterprises.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Brut.all:
Of course, it isn't on the retreat. Both Android and iOS are great OSes and I'm pretty sure neither of them will "mop the floor" with other one - at least in the near future.

I think it's a matter of taste. Apple is known for their preference to release 100% finished and polished products, people love Apple for that, but on the other side many people prefer to use 10 services in beta state, than 3 completed ones.

Some time ago I've discovered Google Dashboard and then I was surprised how many Google products I use. I use ~20 of their services regularly (day by day or so) and more from time to time. Some of them aren't perfect, but still they're good - that isn't a problem for me. And I prefer to use 20 good products from Google, than 5 perfect from Apple and search for additional 15 from 3rd parties.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dirk:
Agree with OP. Lack of Bookmark sync accross platforms is a huge oversight, especially for a company that is at the forefront of cloud computing.

Please Google, fix the more fundamental issues before adding new features like cloud print etc.
[HTC Inspire 4G] lojak29:
Some say they don't hear the difference in the tiny audio issue,from the flat out LOW volume output this phone has as a stock phone.

There's a fix for the tiny audio.. for desire roms and cyanogen roms.

Does anyone know if they are doing something for the low volume output when volumes maxed out?

Is HTC going to release a new kernel for this issue.People can't hear calls,ringers or notifications regardless how high the volume is up.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Probably not.

Custom roms typically have an audio boost of around 20%. If your looking for a louder phone just flash a custom rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RogerPodacter:
I think cyan will eventually get the better audio boost at some point, just like how it fixed the nexus one and desire low volume.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kennyp1990:
So in order to make my inspire louder i have to root it? I heard rooting the inspire was kinda of tricky so i don't want to do it, but if it's the only way to make the phone louder i guess i'll have to.
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
Download Volume+ from the market, or free from the forums here at XDA. It doesn't need root, but only works with Gingerbread(which is the current stock firmware anyway).
[HTC Inspire 4G] htcslic:
Rooting is not that hard on this phone. Just takes patience and carefulness. Also I noticed a great difference from Stock Vol when I switched to Coredroid rom!
[Windows Phone 7] c6ke:
Hey all you ROM-cookers out there! I'm new to this thread but still I suppose I'm able to learn quickly.

For 2 days now I'm trying to find a way to flash the current NoDo ROM for the HD7 onto my Phone. It's an o2-Germany Phone with ID O2___102.

Here's my material:

- The NoDo Rom for HD7 HTC-Europe: from here (Flashable on IDs: HTC__001, HTC__203, HTC__102, HTC__032, HTC__405, HTC__304)

- The three Unbranding O2_DE ROM Files from Ansar: from here (All Flashable on IDs: O2___102)

they are:

* 1 - RUU_Schubert_O2_DE_1.61.207.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_by_ansar

* 2 - RUU_Schubert_O2_DE_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U_Signed_by_ansar (Which always leads to an error in the end)

* 3 - RUU_Schubert_O2_DE_1.61.207.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_Signed_by_ansar

- An Original O2ROM from here

- An ominous ModelID.fig from the Ansar files (could it be, this is only an Imagefile?)

I worked with Hex-Editors, the NBH-Image Tool v1-2 here

but still: Everytime my created ROM gets stuck at 0%.

Here's what I tried already:

- Following this post I inserted the ModelID.fig into the HTC-Europe NoDo-Update Folder -> Stopped at 1% saying: Wrong ID - what a surprise! ;-)

- Change ID in RUU_signed.nbh and SPL from NoDo Update via Hex-Editor from HTC__001 to O2___102 and keep all other IDs -> 0%

- Change ID in RUU_signed.nbh and SPL from NoDo Update via Hex-Editor from HTC__001 to O2___102 and delete all other IDs -> 0%

- Unpack the original o2-ROM (RUU and SPL) via the NBH-ImageTool and repack it, try to flash it. Why does THIS not work? -> 0%

- Following this post and the ones after that I joked around with extraction out of and into the OS-Files. Nice Tools - but it didn't work out (See above- even with the original o2 ROM - just unpacked and repacked didn't work...) So no use here...

Here's my understanding of what should work and is my goal to achieve: If I unpack the NoDo-Rom with the NBH-ImageTool, enter the right CID and repack it - then it should update on my HD7 from O2-DE, right? --> It doesn't ;(

Got that idea from here.

Do i need the right O2_DE pvk file to sign my ROMS with the NBHImageTool? Do I get that somewhere? (Suppose: No)

So can anybody give me a hint what I do wrong?
[Windows Phone 7] FlexIDK:
I'm try this method's too... I'm have t-mobile hd7. =(

I'm wait unbranding rom, or i'm want try goldcard...
[Windows Phone 7] 4irm:
G'Day!

thx for trying...same here O2 Germany. Nothing has worked so far.

U should edit your topic since this is especially related to non O2 Uk devices.

[Windows Phone 7] siddartha:
good luck my friend, i can't wait for this :)
[Windows Phone 7] Rouz.:
I also have trouble signing the ROMs to be flashable;

Even if its a ROM for my device's region, as soon as i extract it and build it again with NBHImageTool (without any modification), it become un-flashable.

You should probably ask this from ansar, as he has managed to do this. Although I'm not sure if he is willing to share what he know, but if you found out, please share with us too :)

You are also right about ModelID.fig being an image file. It does not contain any information that can affect the flashing process in anyway.
[Windows Phone 7] driftnut56:
If you manage to figure this out, would you mind doing the same to make a T-Mobile US ROM?
[Windows Phone 7] ceesheim:
you could try this.

use the SPL_signed.nbh from a rom you can flash to .

so the nodo .nbh(RUU_signed.nbh from the new c&p build) and the SPL_signed.nbh from a rom you can flash.
[Windows Phone 7] antologiu:
THANK YOU:)
[Windows Phone 7] ltaylor23:
Does this work for hd7 and focus
[Windows Phone 7] Delta-flasher:
test post to see if it works
[Windows Phone 7] dbcattermole:
aaaarrrgghh

First of all, Hi :)

2nd, I decided the other day it would be a good idea to load the win 7 software using aMAGLDR V1.12.......I now don't like it and would like to revert back to win 6.5.

I've tried connecting the phone to my laptop (running win7) but it's not recognised. What am I doing wrong and where do I go from here to get the phone back to some form of normality?

When I get the RGBW screen it comes up with:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

0x05

CotullaHSPL 0x30

Please help me, I am very new to this and will need things simplfying if poss :S

Cheers

Dan
[Windows Phone 7] cmiuc:
I heard you guys are the ones to see if there is anyway to cook the files from the w7update that backs up your wp7 phone... has any of u guys ever looked into seeing if a selective restore or extracting certain files is possible from the files?

if i am barking up the wrong tree.... point me to the right tree...

thanks :)

nice to see the info here... its awesome
[Windows Phone 7] empds:
No Developments here. Wp7 Central is too quiet.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] McBang2023:
What trips me out about this phone is its a vibrant with a 4g antennae and a FFC, but the builds are so diff, there arent any roms for this yet. Shame you all can't use some of the awesome Roms over in the vibrant forum. If only there where some good Devs over here......
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] wease:
And this is the reason dev's don't bother, you sir, have no clue.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jerrybritt:
But I thought you said "Shame you all can't use some of the awesome Roms over in the vibrant forum" which were written by the same developers that are/will be working on our ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jmattp:
The thing just came out...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] matthenry87:
LOL!! @ OP. You have no idea what your are talking about. Give it a week and Team Whiskey should have something whipped up for the SGS 4G. Krylon is being sent an SGS4G as we speak.

again... LOL!!! @ OP bahahaha what a ______

[Android Software Development] CAL7:
I'm likin' it! Could you add a buttons "a2sd check" and "a2sd sysinfo" and "a2sd diskspace"?
[Android Software Development] elgubbo:
sounds like a good idea and i have been thinking about it, but could not find a decent way to present all the data these commands give as output ... i will think harder :D
[Android Software Development] neoazrael:
works well thx for ur labours and share...
[Android Software Development] drake1:
Really good, thanks man. Question though, If rebuild dalvik which is on SD card, will I get more internal storage?
[Android Software Development] temasek:
Good stuff! Should place on market. :D

and thanks for the other feedback as well :)
[Android Software Development] vault1965:
Awsome man, just awsome... Keep them coming...
[Android Software Development] temasek:
My swap is not activated but in the app it says it is activated. I select to deactivate swap but still says activated.
[Android Software Development] elgubbo:
thanks alot!

could you please tell me your configuration (a2sd scripts version number, swap partition size, rom you are using)?

i think i already fixed it just now, if possible for you i would like to wait a few days until more bugs are reported so i can release a fixed version for all those bugs? :)

Also doesn't show my apps2sd.
[Android Software Development] elgubbo:
i will look into that :) could you tell me what app that is?

im not sure whats the most accurate method to find the free ram.

my app uses the "free" command so maybe check what that says?

i dont get whats wrong in this picture. could you explain it to me?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowledge13:
I wanted to know what is the easiest way to root Sprint Galaxy 4G. I've tried the Super One Click Root App and it keeps getting hung up on waiting for device. I read that i had to download drivers, and i had a question about that. Is it referring to the device drivers for the phone once i plug it into the computer, or is there some other special drivers i have to download. I rooted my Eris, and want to root my friends Galaxy 4G, but it's not the same method. Also how do you get into recovery on the Galaxy 4G.

Please let me know the easiest way to root. He doesn't want a custom rom, just the root.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
First stop is to the Wiki page. Then read a guide or two. Also utilize the search feature in threads and the advanced search for more broad searching.

You need the Samsung drivers for the phone. They can be found in the guides or directly off Samsung's website.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowledge13:
I've done that. I installed drivers. I followed step by step for the "super one click app" and it gets hung up on waiting for device. All the other methods sound confusing. One says to install drivers than it states to run "run.bat"! I don't even know where this is or anything.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greatlakesghost:
The run bat is in the folder where you extracted everything, its a windows batch file i believe. Also if you are having issues with the computer seeing your phone try using different ports or even a different cable.

FCC Link:

https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas...e=N&application_id=273771&fcc_id='A3LGTI9100'

I'd be really happy if it does come on at&t bands because all of Canadia works on the same bands :)
[Galaxy S II General] lgkahn:
that doesnt mean anything.. the stock sgs ii has att bands and just becuase it is going through fcc approval doesnt mean it is att requesting the approval.. could just be samsung getting it approved as it does all its phones.
[Galaxy S II General] Funk2641:
Either way he can use it just fine, so it's a lot to get excited about
[Galaxy S II General] virussnake:
he could use it without fcc's approval...

also engadget was really slow this is friday's news

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_gal...mode_i708_prototype_hit_the_fcc-news-2412.php

what did you think? ffc doesn't work on sundays :p
[Galaxy S II General] smitty1:
Well I for one happy about this.

I held out for waiting for the atrix, but in the end it just wasn't enough for me. I have a captivate and have enjoyed having it rooted and running froyo way before AT&T and sammy got off their ass.
[Galaxy S II General] soraxd:
i fully expect the s2 to have all the same bands that the galaxy s1 had, and the omnia hd also had, the same quadband coverage, dont expect anything to change here. because they are the most widely used bands, perfect for an international model.
[Galaxy S II General] Papi4baby:
Oh man, this is getting harder and harder.

Is going to be either SGS2 or iP5. :(

So difficult.
[Galaxy S II General] vista1984:
i still believe S2 will be compatible to all providers, like S1,,

make the base of fight with ip5,,

using tegra2 to ensure the quantity for sale ,, which makes sense.
[Galaxy S II General] FLAC Vest:
This was known for a while now, that the Galaxy S 2 wwould work on ATT 3G bands. What is not known is whether ATT will pick up the phone or not.
[Galaxy S II General] smitty1:
They would be fools not to pick it up.

Phones are just bait to get and keep subscribers. The phone should be a great device.
[Galaxy S II General] buttes:
If this is a AT&T only phone, there is no justice in the world.
[Galaxy S II General] MikeyMike01:
The international version works on AT&T.

Even if some US Carriers carry it, it will suck in comparison. Look at the Captivate/Vibrant compared to the i9000.
[Galaxy S II General] smitty1:
Yeah, that is true.

If AT&T does get they will probably request that sammy retard the phone some how. Like taking away some of the radios or no front facing camera.

I'm hoping they wont do that this time, but they probably will find some way to screw it up.
[Galaxy S II General] FtrV8:
Agreed! I won't ever buy a AT&T retarded phone again, if there is an international one available I will pay extra for it. Like the Captivate vs i9000.
[Galaxy S II General] AJerman:
I completely understand if you guys didn't dig into FCC documents to read what they said, I don't blame you, but just to clarify, the device passed is an 850/1900 ONLY phone, meaning it can only be for AT&T or Canadian carriers.

Other versions will likely be released, but the version that passed FCC is not going to work on other US carriers.

We'll have to see if they strip out features again. FFC is a must, and I don't think they'll strip that out. I think they took that out last time because the network wasn't ready for video calling. They wanted HSPA+ prior to letting people use video calling. Other phones AT&T sells have an FFC now, so I don't think the SGS2 will be any different.

Other than that, what, FM radio and no HSUPA? AT&T SAYS they are going to start rolling out HSUPA, we'll see, if not I'm sure a radio swap with an international version will work again. And FM radio would be a nice addition, but I certainly won't make a decision on a phone over it. I can always use TuneIn and iheartradio if I really want to listen to my ****ty local stations. Oh, and a flash on the camera. That one actually may sway my decision to buy it if they don't include a flash. That was one of the stupidest things I've seen, but I found that I don't care about flash for pictures as much as I do for a flashlight. Most cell phone pictures taken with flash look like crap anyway.

I would go for an international version if they were at least somewhat reasonable in price, but I'm not paying $700-800+ USD for an international version.

Anyway, I hope they will hurry up. I have an upgrade that I'm itching to use!
[Galaxy S II General] madgraph:
Why not? Use your upgrade + $199 to buy an Iphone5, sell it for ~$600, pay <$300 out-of-pocket for the international version. The latest details are $700 and a May date from the other thread.
[Galaxy S II General] AJerman:
Because I don't want to spend that much on a phone right now. I just bought an iPad 2 as my latest toy, so I have to limit myself. Depending on the cost on AT&T, I'm up for upgrade price plus $50 off. If it hits a $200 price point again I can probably get it for $150. We don't even know what will be different between the two yet.
[Galaxy S II General] MikeyMike01:
I'm sorry.

Sent from my Captivate
[Galaxy S II General] andrew53517:
But will the international version allow us to have HSPA+ on ATT? Or just 3G?
[Galaxy S II General] Funk2641:
HSPA+, fully unlocked
[Galaxy S II General] AJerman:
Thanks for the pointless comment! :)
[Galaxy S II General] andrew53517:
Really? Hmm... fully unlocked for HSPA+. So I would have to import it from asia or europe (unlocked version) and it would have all the proper bands needed like my Atrix has...ill have to consider this.

Atrix4G Rooted!
[Galaxy S II General] RojasTKD:
Yeah, but it AT&T we are talking about. They have lagged behind on offering top notch Android phone (probably because they where pushing their exclusive iPhone). By contrast Verizon has been offering a variety of great Android phones for some time.

The Samsung SGS1 was the first truly top tier Android phone AT&T offered. Now the Atrix is a great phone they have, and hopefully the SGS2 will be coming also. I think it will (hopefully soon), but you never know with AT&T. Now that the iphone is nolonger exclusive they need to pick up a variety of enticing Android phones.

I'm ready for an upgrade and am holding out for the SGS2.
[Galaxy S II General] MikeyMike01:
Any time. Need something in between release date speculation and complaints about price gouging. ;)

Sent from my Captivate
[Galaxy S II General] JoeyGuard:
I had a captivate but my screen was cracked so couldn't use warranty, so att let me upgrade 6 months early and i got the inspire for $75 shipped and its not a bad phone but it just wasn't for me. so I switched it out within the 30 days for the atrix which should be arriving today. I'm hoping the SGS2 comes out within 30 days on att so i can just swap it out again but i doubt that will happen. so my plan B is sell my atrix(im not even gonna open it) hopefully get 450 to 550 for it, then ill buy the international version of the SGS2, so it only costs me hopefully less than 200 to buy at full retail.
[Galaxy S II General] lknhiayi:
I was about to order but get this:

We do not believe the unit will be quad 3g.

We believe there are going to be 2 separate units. 900/2100 and 850/1900 versions

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] bbgt2:
Of course it will be quad bands, of course AT&T will get it.
[Galaxy S II General] lknhiayi:
I get it from Expansys

I was hooping, but finaly i will wait for some us user feedback :P:D
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
i'm confused, i'm digging thru the FCC docs now. but the engadget article says it it passed with ATT frequencies, but they only say 850/1900 GSM. they say nothing about 850/1900WCDMA and HSDPA. so do we even know that this was tested with ATT 3G bands?

the FCC docs are not loading for me!!

do we know if the international version of the galaxy s2 will be quad band 3G anyway, since gsmarena specs show it as quad band. is this true?

EDIT: docs finally loaded, it does indeed have ATT 3G testing done:D.
[Galaxy S II General] ignign0kt:
So its safe to say the UK market i9100 will work on ATT bands?

Just want to make sure before I blow over $700
[Galaxy S II General] Funk2641:
yes, it's all good
[Galaxy S II General] lknhiayi:
Me too

Please those who are in at&t and have this phone can you confirm

Thx
[Galaxy S II General] tublah:
Yes, Virginia, it will work on AT&T's 3G/"4G" and EDGE.

http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php?xProd=4203

Specification:

Network

HSPA+ 21Mbps/ HSUPA 5.76Mbps

EDGE/ GPRS Class 12

Quad band GSM 850/900/1800/1900

Quad band UMTS 850/900/1900/2100
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
yes but we dont know for sure, as nobody has physically put an ATT sim into the phone yet and seen 3g work. some sites claim it has quad band 3g, but the tmobile G2x said the same thing. and it turns out that was incorrect all this time, it was only dual band 3g.

so we need someone to pop in their ATT sim card and check!! please, i'm dying to get this phone...;)
