    Help Reversion

    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...

    ics roms?

    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?

    Help Screen will not unlock, reboots self

    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...

    Should I?

    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?

    Atrix, Best Buy, and Baloney

    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...

    Miracle battery

    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...

    Root I dun goofed....

    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...

    Help Captivate Root, Froyo root, official

    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?

    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...

    Will the Bravo get Froyo?

    I have had a capivate for a while. The first bit the dust, and the refurb replacement was worthless. Now I can get a different phone. iF the bravo gets froyo, I'm going with it. Will it be getting 2.2 or not? And which ATT phone is the best to get?
