Database Info

My GS2 AT&T

Hey guys can someone help me out here I read the help files etc. I don't know why IM having such a problem with this rooting thing.. Does anyone have the appropriate files to do this? and the detailed instructions? I have done a little searching and maybe IM looking in the wrong spot... I guess IM worried about bricking my new phone any ways I would like to root it too the latest ICS. is it stable system?
Thanks

use odin 1.85 and flash cwm 5.0.2.6, then flash an ics rom from dev section, i recommend mhx superlite. More info is available in the two stickies in the android development section,ics in and a howto flash

Go to the "all in one" thread and it has all the info to root properly... They have very detailed instructions.
Just dont do anything thats NOT in the skyrocket section and a trusted source..
Just make sure you do a backup with clockwork recovery mod before you start flashing things and if you brick your phone it takes 4 easy steps to get back..
ICS is pretty stable for not even being officially released yet but still not as stable as some gingerbread roms.

Yes, that is the correct device for these subforums. Just read the all-in-one thread and the threads that it links to -- no matter how experienced you are it's always a good idea to read the stickies, wikis, and how-to's for a new device.

[Q] Gingerbread to AOKP Jelly Bean re-booting at splash screen

Hello,
I haven't flashed since my first smart phone (HTC WING).. now Sensation 4g. So what I have done so far after much research:
S-off
CWM installed
Backup of stock made (and used..)
No firmware update (probable issue)
I have read and im inferring from the posts that since im on Gingerbread I need to do a firmware update to ICS. I would like to know however to use the AOKP Jelly Bean ROM is there yet another Firmware update I will need to install or is it not necessary at all.
I am assuming its firmware most likely but id rather not assume.
I get stuck at the splash screen advises me to pick a language and reboots constantly.
Thanks in advance.

Just bumping to ensure it doesn't get lost in the shuffle.

Its a kernel you'll need to run it ... go to the ROM forum your trying to install and ask or look youll find it ...

[Q] LG Lucid Software Rollback

I have a friend who has an LG Lucid. They recently got a software update and it changed the whole UI and they hate it. I did not see a section on this forum for the LG Lucid. Does anyone know if it is possible to revert the phones software to a previous version?
Thanks

Here i found this....
This is supposedly the GB stock file: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40093877/VS840ZV6_06.S6_06.P58014.R5.cab
Then I guess you use the program and isntructions (not the file) from here:http://androidforums.com/lucid-all-things-root/654009-guide-unbrick-lg-lucid.html
I do not own a LG Lucid and take no responsibility for what you do with your or your friends device. Use at your own risk.... That being said, after a long search this is the only thing i could find.

[Completed] textnow,textfree...force close,cant make calls etc.

hello guys new to this thread but trust me i've been looking and reading and cant find anything to do with my problem so...
anyway some background im running the latest twrp and cromi-x 5.4 deodex on the tf700 and im also on the latest firmware.
so heres my problem,I use textnow and textfree alot,so much so that I buy minutes on a monthly basis,well once I unlocked and installed this rom it seems I cant make calls anymore on textnow-which I have about 4000 minutes left on...but heres the thing,when I open rom toolbox pro and tick the app manager tab and click textnow icon,I notice that in permissions the "able to make outgoing and recieve incoming calls" permission isnt allowed...Im not really that technical but I tried what i could as far as Running a "fix permissions" script for the app itself and i also ran one system wide....I wish i could get a reply from someone who knows how to fix this situation because its really bugging me and i dont want to revert back to stock cause that sucks and Crombi-KK doesnt have the Xloud or Noozoxide mods which I actually do appreciate so much.
also am i supposed to know that browser2ram is running like in supersu or does it run in the background default? because i definitely do not get any notification from supersu that its even running( no grant notifications or anything)

sorry meant to say also ran one system wide

Hi there! And welcome to XDA. ?
I'm afraid you're asking very ROM specific questions. And you also know what I would suggest off the bat.....flash stock and see if it works.
This is the ROM thread I believe you are using. The guys in that thread know the device better than anyone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223492&page=594
Now I see you don't have the 10 post minimum to ask your questions in a dev section forum, so my advice is to browse through the tf700 section and post some meaningful and constructive posts and/or comments on threads that interest you in the General and Q&A sections. Once you have 10 posts....you're good to go to post in the ROM thread. Just don't post anything to get your 10 post count though, or you will probably have them deleted by moderator.
Here's the tf700 section...

Good luck!

Perhaps post a question about browser to ram in Q&A....if you don't see any other threads on it first. If so, ask there.
A good way to get a couple posts in.
---------- Post added at 07:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------
Also searched and found an older thread, but has some browser to ram info directly related to your device.

flash stock??

im sorry how do i do that...flash stock,can i still keep the sound mods like xloud,noozoxide?

I found a complete guide for your device. Scroll down through the opening post and there's a return to stock section. This guide has a LOT of great how to's!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1833212
As far as the mods go, you'd need to root again after returning to stock and see if the mods work with stock. If not, the guide covers flashing ROMs....you'd have to flash whatever is necessary to run the mods.

[Completed] want to learn how to flash galaxy 3 kernel

hi, could someone please point me towards a thread where it is explained how to use odin to flash the kernel on the galaxy 3?
i'm trying to follow the instructions for flashing CyanogenMod 7.2 (Alpha9 - MTD) as found on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2309390
i already have CyanogenMod 7.2 Alpha9 on my phone. i just can't figure out how to use odin to flash the kernel so i can then update to the MTD version. everything i've tried either does nothing or ends up with a bricked phone and i have to start over again. what version of odin should i be using? should i be using PDA or one package mode? should i be using the OPS file?
please direct me to a thread and not just an area of the site. i know what bits to look in, and i can't find the information i need. i can't ask in the CyanogenMod 7.2 (Alpha9 - MTD) thread because my post count isn't high enough to post in that bit of the forum.

Hi!
Normally we only link members to threads here....but before I worry about that, I should simply tell you that kernels from the development sections generally get flashed from your custom recovery. Not with Odin.
If I understand what you are saying, that's your problem.
---------- Post added at 12:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 PM ----------
In other words....please carefully read the opening posts of anything you want to flash. Instructions for flashing are almost always listed there.
---------- Post added at 12:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------
OK, I see it does have a Odin flashable kernel. My mistake.
I also see you already asked about it in the Q&A section....which is exactly what I was about to advise you to do.
You will have to patient and wait for an answer there.
Also, you can look around and comment or ask questions ....making constructive posts. After 10 posts, you can post in the ROM thread also.
Good luck!

thanks, didn't mean to be impatient, but i thought maybe my original post was asking people to recover old ground, and that a request to be directed to the relevant thread would be more appropriate.
if there's a version of this kernel that is flashable from recovery, a link to that would be better yet, as i'm getting along fine with CWM recovery, whereas i'm finding odin to be confusing and temperamental.

I'm afraid I can't help further. You've found where to look and post , and that is what we do here on Assist. Nothing more I'm afraid. ?

cool, thanks for your help!

i've realised that the problem i had all along was that the zip archive containing the cyanogenmod 7 MTD version update was corrupt. i've re-downloaded that and now have the MTD version running.
