Android Thread V4 - Got money? Samsung Galaxy S II. No money? ZTE Blade. - Hardware & Software

I mostly rooted because the DHD's 1230 mAh battery is a piece of shit, thus I need to eke out whatever battery savings I can. EVO 3D seems to encounter a similar problem with battery life, but with such a big battery I don't know if that's actually true.

Where is the "official" download link for odin? Only thing I find, are random mediafire and depositfile uploads [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=ManningQB18;31533270]I just won a Facebook argument over how Android was better than iOS. The real killer for it was that after I showed the person reasons why it was better, he replied "ur just jealous bcuz u don't have an iPhone.". My reply? "I DO have an IPhone and android is better."[/QUOTE] You are lucky, most people I know are COMPLETE Apple fanatics They have even told me, that the Android notification bar is stolen from Ios5

What does it matter if it's a mediafire download? [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] All the Canadian networks are oversold. I used to get like 6Mbps down on my SGS, now I'm lucky to hit 2Mbps. Amazing how many fucking summer signups they got, ruined the whole fucking network.

I'll just install Froyo and Bootloaders from [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061946"]here[/URL] and grab a Nightly from the official CM7 website Wish me luck [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] Before I install, do anyone know any good stock SAMSUNG apps replacements?

If the rep is clueless(many are) then just say sorry, hangup and call back until you get a smart one. It's back but it's definitely limited, so you should call in as soon as you can.

My phone did just shut down my windows to boot screen and made BIOS try to boot from the phone just after I have connected it.

Awwww flashing Froyo+bootloader just fails Then I'll try the file from this thread [url]http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/25313-flash-cm7-from-darkys-rom-v101[/url]

[QUOTE=Satane;31538574]no[/QUOTE] Don't really see a point to the 3D part of the Evo 3D then, would rather see it taken out and a better camera/screen put in, along with some better materials.

I'm stupid Forgot I'm supposed to turn on the download mode [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] Ok guys, what is the best kernel to recover from softbrick?

[QUOTE=superstepa;31541561]I'm stupid Forgot I'm supposed to turn on the download mode [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] Ok guys, what is the best kernel to recover from softbrick?[/QUOTE] I would guess if you softbrick just reflash stock kernel w/ root stuff. Someone else may have the better answer.

Apparently someone put a piece of foild into my phone's usb cable,which caused to shut down my PC because foil sucked more energy from usb hub, then it technically possible Sounds dumb, but that's real

Unable to charge my SGSII, it says the battery temperature is too high or too low. Oh well, guess I'll run Angry Birds for a while to get the thing boiling so I can charge it again. :v:

The solution to battery related heat issues is to take the phone's battery out and leave it on a room temperature table to cool down. Don't just start gaming, you'll kill your battery (spare parts will list it as overheating).

But then again, I have a fan for it when it's charging or when I'm playing.

[QUOTE=PyroCF;31528090]Please, please, please tell me you're joking? Pretty much everythread mentions it and it's dotted everywhere in the SGSII section. It's Clockworkmod recovery.

I bought a Transformer (+ keyboard/dock) for everyday use/college, and I love it. All of it. It's so awesome. What pisses me off is that Gameloft doesn't support the Transformer, and they've got some pretty good HD games that I'd love to play. From what I understand, the Transformer, hardware wise, is identical to the Xoom, which I believe they do support. I mean, it's not like the Transformer wouldn't be able to run any of the games they have, so what's the reason for not supporting it? I read that it was something about waiting until the Transformer got popular enough, but didn't it sell out on the first day, and it already has millions sold. /rant I just wanna play some cool games.

Also, before I flash MIUI, I have some questions. Do note that they are likely dumb, and you might not want to answer them. Do I have to wipe my phone memory before flashing? If I want to go back to a Stock rom, how do I do it? And non-MIUI questions: How do I get rid of the phone checking on my custom firmwares?
