Hi guys About once or twice a day my WiFi cuts out and I get an exclamation mark, after 20 secs it reconnects. Someone on XDA posted a solution here android.stackexchange.com/questions/100657/how-to-disable-captive-portal-detection-how-to-remove-exclamation-mark-on-wi-fi Trouble is I have no...

Hi all Last week or 2 been getting sim card error. Randomly my phone will suddenly stop recognising the sim card, so calls etc can't be made. On rebooting all is fine. This sometimes happens six times a day, sometimes every couple of days. It's very annoying. I'm rooted and on Dan's GPE...

Latest version 1.1.17 now out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52414718

Hi All, after somehow screwing up my phone at the end of last week, I've found myself needing to re-install my favourite ROM. However, I kept getting a "status 7 error". I assumed it was a problem with the latest version of Philz, and being a lazy chump, PMed uncle rusty bum, who pointed me...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43798464 http://echoerom.com/ Anyone tried echoe? Seems a much simpler way of trying 4.3 whilst keeping on old bootloader and avoiding all the Knox/bootloader issues and complications of djembey mega Rom? Thoughts from learned friends much...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40710278 NEW KNOX-FREE ROMS now available! Djembey has released 2 new roms that use the new "root de la Vega" patch to root, which does NOT trip the Knox efuse! This includes a new leaked MJ3 (4.3) firmware. Reports on xda are that this works...

It's a coming..... Android 4.3 arriving for Galaxy S III and Galaxy S 4 in October

It's it just me, or is the Google navigation app on 4.2.2 absolutely pants, especially compared to the older version I used to have on my s2. Seems really difficult to get started, and if you leave the screen I can't get it back. Might try and extract the old version from my s2 and see if that...

Hi guys, I promised I'd report back.... The so-called ausdim kernel is flashable and works on 4.2.2 samsung roms such as omega and Djembey. In his words "this is a kernel compiled from GT-I9505G sources and packed with MF8 initramfs....Is not something special, is a stock kernel i compile...

After having a bash at the Fox hound Rom early today, I tried to restore my Nandroid. Got a message that md5 was corrupt or something along those lines. Now my Nandroid manager app that checks the md5 sum says it's fine. My Nandroid files show up fine in Orange back up, Nandroid manager and...

I'm sure most of you have seen this, if you haven't, it's a kernel that works for I9505 and "is built from Samsung sources update2, Rooted with the latest SuperSu, the main goal of this kernel is to keep it close to stock with a few improvements". It's basically like stock, with a few tweaks...

Right, I've got mobile Odin on my phone. I've downloaded the 9505 files, but what do I do now with these rar files to get my mobile Odin to flash roms??

anyone know how to turn fast dormancy off on the I9505 - apparently gokan's fast dormancy toggle app on play store doesnt work on this version, and the old code *#9900# used on old S2 don't work either can't find a solution to this anywhere.....

On my old S2 I had great success in improving signal with trying different modems, especially with data. Since getting my S4 I've noticed that data signal is not so strong as it was with my S2. DJembey has a thread on XDA with modems flash able through Odin, see here...

Well, OK, this isn't really a brand new kernel, it's just adapted speedmod. but it's getting so quiet on here these days, it feels like the S2 is on it's final legs!! So, if anyone wants to try anything different, I heartily recommend this little gem, for battery life it can't beaten. Main...
