I found an article on how to revert the GSII back to 2.3.5. It was written with the idea of people updating to that version, but I figured it could work when reverting too. Anyone have any thoughts? I'm tempted to do it, as my ICS is screwed up and factory reset did nothing. Link below. Thanks...

I upgraded to the official ics from Samsung. Since then my phone has used 8gb of data. Yes, GB. It says android os alone is doing it. I turned off the sync and android backup but it still shows it has used 7 gb of background data this week alone. I use data so disabling it is bad.what is...

I have the At&T gs2 (i777). It runs great, no problems, but I do want ice on it. I know cyanogen mod doesn't work, as well as the official. I don't care about fancy stuff, I just want a stable problemless mod. Anyone?

A neat little trick. When your screen is.black hold the unlock button for.a few seconds and hthe swipe.to.unlock.screen disappears. Hold.button when screen is black again to bring back.

Hi all. Just to start off, I love android, but I hate manufacturers. I have had nothing but heartache, first with the captivate (i had 7 replacements) and now the greatly disappointing atrix. It constantly reboots by itself, takes forever to restart. It also has a tendency of locking up when not...

I use phones heavily for internet and gaming. I have an atrix, like the performance, poor reliability. Have a captivate, love the screen, hate the performance and reliability. SHould I get the GS2 or the Xperia Play?

Thinking about getting an Xperia PLAY. I use phones pretty hard for internet and games mostly. I've had a captivate and been disappointed, an atrix and disappointed in reliability. I'm also considering the ATT Galaxy s2. Why is this one better or is it not?

Bought my Atrix through best buy because I couldn't wait for the SGS2 or Atrix 2, due to my Captivate being a POS. It was force closing the camera app and would often freeze, so I did the Best Buy Hardware Exchange. New Atrix. Since then it locks up 8 minutes after startup, freezes when the...

Ive had an atrix for a week now. Its amazing but I have a weird question. I downloaded batterytime from motalen. When I turned the phone off at noon the past few days, its usually at 60%, which is after a hard morning of use. When I turn it on 30 minutes later, it's back up to 80. Without...

I've had several captivates now. This current one (another refurb) ran ok, so I put a 2.2 upgrade on it (ODIN, i think. Don't quote me on that.). Then I put the RyanZa root and One Click Lag Fix. Since then it's been getting slower and slower. Someone told me that the OCLF is actually...

I rooted my phone with the z4 from Ryan Za. I did his OCLF lag fix, deleted bloatware, etc. Updated it to 2.2 (Odin, I think) and it's getting slower... and slower... Two questions. 1. Is the Official 2.2 worth it? 2. What can I do to re-speed up my phone?

can I use a citrus on the at&t network with an at&t sim card?

OK. I recently installed an unofficial FROYO on my phone. It works, but it slowed the phone down. How do I install a lagfix? I was told to use Tayutama One Click Lag Fix!!! - xda-developers before, but I have no idea where to start. I'm not very tech savvy (i need step by step instructions)...

I have had four captivates. Each is slow, weak battery, overheats. I called att. They said that either i got another captiavte, or they could send me a backflip. The Aria, Bravo, Flipout, Flipside, were not available. They said I could take a blackberry, but I said def. no. How long will it be...

Ok. I got a Captivate in mid-October. It worked great... for two weeks. It started to overheat. Then it frequently locked up. THe battery times dropped. Processor speeds dropped. I wasn't doing much different, and what was different should not have affected it. But it did. After calling AT&T...
