I am currently on stock ROM with root and custom kernel (ElementalX). Is there anything special I need to do other than follow the "Clean install" instructions on the first page? I do not care if my kernel gets overwritten, nor if I lose root. Thanks,

I unenrolled in the beta program which pushed me back to 7.0, then flashed OTA to 7.1.1, unlocked bootloader, then flashed TWRC, then SuperSu, then kernel manager. Now I am done and happy :)

Hi all, I'm currently on DP2 of 7.1.1 and I'd like to root my phone and install elementalX and possibly custom ROMS. Once I am in a standard configuration I'm comfortable rooting and such, but I am unsure if I need to get off DP2 before doing so, and if I do need to get off DP2, I am not sure...

FAQ doesn't mention that auto brightness must be enabled as far as I saw. I think that may be one of the key ingredients, and the FAQ doesn't currently have that in the 'worded explanation'.

Not sure if you read my entire post, but I did try both the methods mentioned. I have rebooted. I 'think' the auto brightness may have enabled it, I just enabled that and rebooted and it seems to have stuck. I generally prefer user control on the brightness, but that's a fairly small price to...

Any progress on the capacitive lights? CM9 worked fine, flashed to this and tried the two metods (both under sensors, and custom back light settings) and nothing seems to stick after a single lock/unlock screen. On 4/8 upload, not sure if I should switch to 4/9 or if there is something else I...

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12494644/UMS1.0.apk I just pulled it from his .zip file and uploaded to my dropbox. Enjoy. ---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ---------- damn, you're too quick!

If this is the intended usage, I am extremely concerned. I would like it as a quick guide for how useful a post is; lets say someone says to do an adb command that will hardbrick your phone, but there's 100:1 downvote:upvote ratio, no one is going to use the command. Conversely, it could get...

Me as well. Heat gun does wonders.

This has been debated. Tested on Mythbusters and found that you needed an incredibly strong magnet to wipe the data off the creditcard strip. I don't believe that your phone could produce strong enough magnetic fields that it'd wipe the data from a card, but it could be possible if something...

The magnet is pretty weak. I considered this as well, but I have been using the SD card and haven't had any issues. Only used it for a week, but no problems so far. It was pretty cheap (>10$ i believe) so it's worth a check if it comes back in stock

Took these with my camera. Not the best quality, but should show the important views. Album here: http://imgur.com/a/wdJh0

Generally I fold it, or use it like a book. Both work well, just depends on what exactly I am doing. I set it on a table like a book usually. Or fold it to make a phone call. I honestly haven't taken many pictures since the case, but it's really easy to hold like a book and isn't really an...

Bought this case from amazon recently and I just wanted to share that it's amazing. I always hated a wallet AND phone in my pocket. I always combined them (phone into wallet, or credit cards in case for phone) and this is the perfect combination for me. Allows for a great protective case...

Unfortunately I was far too rushed, but i used the following pictures/tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1253969 The only part this didn't cover was the removal of the glass from the housing, which I winged. The key to glass removal was the heat gun, and pushing from...

Dropped my phone a week or so ago. After going over my options I bought a new screen from Go Unlock to replace it. I ordered overnight shipping, around 4pm pst, the part arrived less than 24hr's later. I was impressed, especially after reading the negative reviews of the company online, but I...

Thanks for that, I tried stock music player and ZoomFX (10cent sale!) and it worked fine. time to replace camera icon with ZoomFX! Thanks!

I am on ICScrewD 1.6.1. Are there any ROM's other than CM7 that allow this to happen? I am not the hugest fan of CM7, but really miss picture/music coinciding properly...

Because I cannot, and I wonder if that's a function of the HW/SW or the custom rom I am running. Thanks,

Happy I helped! Gotcha, thanks for the information. I was secretly hoping it was fully hosted on GoDaddy. That'd be a blow to their wallet!

No ad blocking for me, running chrome, and I do not have this 'feature'/'issue'.

I saw the posting on the portal about switching off of GoDaddy, and first of all I want to say THANK YOU! From all of us who don't have a website they can switch off of GoDaddy, we thank you. Putting your money in the pockets of companies you approve of is GREAT. I only wish I could do more to...

Awesome! Thank you very much

Well see how my battery goes on this rom, but loving BLN. Cannot function without it! Had it on my captivate, had an equivalent on the HTC vivd, and now I have BLN on my SGSII! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353513

Thank you! BLN from my cappy is so nice to have. just picked up my SGSII yesterday, and flashed this early this morning. Much appreciated!

just returned, still collecting receipt photos?

returned mine, told them the locked boot loader and CIQ made me sick. Taking my business to Radio Shack to purchase a SGSII. quite happy!

perm root'd? that'd be great. Can any one else confirm?

let him be. fools will be fools.

$150 in my area, may have to swap for vivid. ARG

keeping mine. stock its not bad, and rooted will be epic! i'd consider the SG2, but for $100 more, it doesnt seem like the right deal... loving the vivid!

did you purchase for $100, and return for $200?

submit to portal in upper left. all of XDA will see it!

Better yet, vote for it to be sent up to the portal!

before this blows up any more, has any one verified that the entire history is sent to the carrier, versus mere statistics such as "dialed the number 1 x numbers of times in y hours" -or- "pressed power button y times in z hours" Just wondering.

never used ATT's return service and had a few questions. 1) is 'no unlocked bootloader' a 'valid' reason for return? or should I mention the random reboots, extreme dislike of sense, and problems with the headphone jack? 2) is there a $35 fee? And if so, any tips on getting this waived? 3) if...

where do you view logs? Mine has reset ~3times yesterday, and about once a day otherwise. NOT STOKED.

Updated google doc's, should be accurate, feel free to give any suggestions! putting you into googledoc as soon being 12/1/11, lemme know if that's not kosher for you

I am getting well over a day of usage. usually get a day and a half with a modest amount of wifi/mobile data usage and well over an hour 'on screen' time. almost posted a screen shot when i was at 1 day 19 hours and ~20% left, with a majority of time with wifi on and well over an hour of screen...

I'd pitch $10 for the above. please? EDIT: assuming this is achieved before my 30 day return policy, ending around 12/4. if this isn't done by then I may end up returning for GSII(Non skyrocket)

+1 for the HTC Raider/Vivid

Just picked mine up. I looked at the white one...not a fan. fun fun!

Major issue. Easy to rectify, but if not addressed, all our electronics will not recognize years after 2038... Just like y2k, could be a major issue, but it won't be because people recognize it and will fix/patch it. 64bit computers already mitigate this, but phones, watches, etc. all would...

From the title of this thread, I'm pretty sure that's the goal..

The way I fixed my "ghost apps" problem was to go into TiBu, go to backup/restore, click on settings key and then "batch". Then I selected "move user apps to Internal memory". After doing this, all my ghost apps performed as they should, and I no longer had issues. No reflashing to fuss with...

Not compatible with Samsung Captivate? Or not enabled?

Correct. KF1 is based on captivate, JVQ is based on i9000. DO NOT install.
