you got a tab with ics installed???? im guessing you bought it used and someone installed one of the custom roms...if you got it new with ICS this would be quite something.
camera so far doesn't work in any ics rom. if you want the camera you gotta flash honeycomb again.
has for youtube HW videos not working im guessing the custom rom istalled is an old version. the newer ones work fine with youtube. i would flash the newest version of soup or cm9 if i were you.

lol yes its used as you can prob guess i'am abit new to tabs its my 1st one! so you suggest returning to stock fireware not starting a fresh?

its your decision. if you need the camera honeycomb is your only option at the moment. (stock/overcome/ganbarou)
if not i would definately advise you to use ICS. check the developement thread and chose one of the newer ICS versions. (soup/cm9)

Just to double check seeing as i'am a noob i dont have to do anything other than download n install the cm9 update? i dont need to flash before hand do i?

i would advise you to read the great guide by nirogu:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406137
you download the zip. copy it to your tab. then reboot into recovery (which im guessing is installed)
then do a full factory reset / wipe (warning this will delete your apps but not your data like photos/music etc)
then select flash .zip and chose the zip file containing the rom. let it install and you are done.
but READ THE GUIDE! you will learn a lot and a lot of question you have will be answered!!

cheers pal

tesco galaxy mini

Hello folks
Im enjoying my Gs3 lately but my step daughter isnt enjoying her galaxy mini so i swapped my ported wave 1 and shes loving it lol anyway i now have this galaxy mini can i update the software by porting the phone or does it need to be unlocked from tesco first? its asking for a network lock control key? i can dismiss as there is an option to dismiss and play about with the phone its currently android version 2.3.5 build number "GINGERBREAD ,XWKS7" im in ireland thanks

there's no need to unlock network or bootloader. as you're already on gingerbread, just flash cwm with odin and then pick your poison (rom) you can find all tutorials and guides somewhere around without any problems, just don't ever use rom manager, it tends to brick galaxy mini when you flash cwm with it.

you're welcome, i use cyanogenmod 10.1 as a daily driver, it's good for me. drains battery quite quick, but other than that it's almost perfect please don't start "best rom, recommend a rom" threads, as they're not allowed and are getting closed

i have cyanogenmod 7 on the mini now but do i need 10.1 to have google playstore? i want to get some apps etc
edit update
OK i have to do this "Optional: Place any supplemental packages (eg Google Apps or kernel) .zip file(s) on the root of the SD card."
which over looked in the install guide so here goes the 10.1 attempt lol

oh my brain lol i had cm-7 flashed on the samsung mini and was working away fine but no google play store
and only android keyboard so i realised i needed other zip files to have other features so i found these tass-recovery-cwm.tar
cm-7-20130201-NIGHTLY-tass.zip
Samsung_Keyboard_CM7_En-It-Es-Pt.zip
Trans-Soft-Buttons-Nightly-08192012.zip
gapps-gb-20130109-signed.zip
when i reflashed the phone etc the phone firstly ended up with no keyboard despite having the android keyboard selected when i go into language and keyboard settings it backs up to the main menu so i tried again and now its stuck in some kind of boot loop.
ive put this stock rom (MJKT3_annson08) on now and it seems fine but can anyone advise whats happened with my cm-7 setup which was fine the first time but as i said i only had android keyboard and no play store etc the fix seemes easy but its not working for me thanks

i guess that the keyboard you flashed was faulty, and to have play store and such you need to flash gapps_gb package instead of samsung keyboard, try downloading swype

Which official 2.3.6 firmware shall I install?

My mum has a Samsung Galaxy Ace and she is complaining about quick battery draining and low space. I figured the best thing would be is too update it from 2.3.3 too 2.3.6.
The problem is that Kies is saying that 2.3.3 is already the newest one, so I decided I will go on the internet and look for some official 2.3.6 ROMs. I found many, and the problem is that I don't know which to install not to mess anything up.
I found many people saying that they are stuck in boot loops and their phones lag even more because of the update. The question is: Which ROM shall I use? Right now my mum has 2.3.3 XWPKY and I want to update to one of the 2.3.6 ones.
I found many:
DDKQ8 (oldest one, boot loops apparently)
XWKTM (value pack, newest)
XWKPY (in the middle) which apparently is 2.3.6.... (people are saying it's actually 2.3.3).
Anyway, guys, which ROM do you use, if you have a official one? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I'm using KTM as base, it works fine, but if you're worried the little space you have now, then upgrading... xDDDDDDDD
Don't worry you can delete useless apps and free memory space
A simple tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145 (your pasted links also can serve )
Bootloop is fixed doing wipe factory reset and cache via stock recovery, after flashing the Official Firmware via Odin

Thanks man! Didn't see that thread. And about the little space: The phone is filled bloatware from Orange. Oh, I'm gonna sound like a noob now, but what is KTM? Thanks ;D Also, on the page there's some Vietnam firmware.... I live in the UK. My question primarily was which version (as in, the letters such as DDKQ8 shall I use.

Here it is where you'll get all official firmwares http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
Select your country if you want, KTM is an official firmware from Spain (android 2.3.6.) but don't matter if you flash a firmware from another site but you'll need to change maybe the modem after flash an Indian Firmware, so try to flash an European Firmware to avoid this kind of stuffs

I recommend you the Spanish KTM... Good battery duration and it's perfect as base.

Thanks for the replies. I found this site with firmwares: http://sampro.pl/firmware/android/samsung-s5830/
Holy crap. That's quite a lot to choose from... Are they all the same? Or do they come with different bloatware/lockscreens etc. Also, which shall I install so I won't have problems with the modem?

Yeah, thanks, but is the content of the ROM the same? Like the look of certain things. Eg. lock screen.

Thanks, that's all I needed to know. I also read through a thread on this ROM. Gonna flash it tomorrow. Thanks again!

Flashed and rooted it, no problems whatsoever. Do you guys recommend anything to make it even quicker/get more space/better battery life?? Because the internal space it bad. Thanks.

well, the best way >>> delete all your useless apps (I don't use gapps e.g.), which are consuming your ram (or are running in background), reduce the brightness, use low frequencies, disable sync, delete default browser and use a light one... you can try Stocklite rom (stable without bugs and all performance from stock rom)
If you are using a custom based stock rom, don't use setcpu/similar apps to set your CPU frequencies, check my signature thread , to set frequencies when android boot without to use memory space and ram consumption

[Q] Minecraft PE can't install!

Hi all.
I hope some one could help me with my problem.
Ok, so my problem. My Samsung Galaxy S Advance with Android JB broke, so i gave my phone to repair service. They did everything well, but now my device has Android GB.
And now the problem started. When my device had Android JB i downloaded Minecraft PE from torrents and i could instal it and play, and everything was ok. But now i have Android GB and i can't install Minecraft. It shows that something is wrong with instaler but instaler is good.
So can someone help me with this problem?

I do not think that pirate software is being supported on XDA forum...
BTW, I see on Play store that version may be different depending on Android version, maybe you have JB version, and trying to use it on GB...

I now that chacking is bad but i have one minecraft PE copy that was (and still is) working on :
Gingerbread 2.3.6 (costom gingerbread olso) Jellybean 4.1 , 4.2 ,4.3 , Kitkat 4.4.2 , 4.4.3 , 4.4.4 and on my nexus 7 it works too. So i can send it somehow to u if u really want.

Minecraft install issue myself on my sons phone, its different, a galaxy s fascinate, but the problem just happened when I went to the new cm11 6-04 build I could no longer install the mcpe apk files when I have had it running on lots of roms from here, 4.2.2 even older and up to 4.4.2 du was running but the cyanogenmod cm11 rom will not let me install the game... I don't play minecraft but my 6yo son loves it, hate to go back to a previous build/Rom but that's my next step flashing back to the last build that will let me install it.. I only have had this problem on the 6-04 cm11 build with 4.4.2, dirty unicorns ran it fine.. Hmmm

That won't work till you reflash stock rom
However you can try to google and find alternatives for it

Thanks... Tried that but still no joy.. What's the latest version of stock can be used on the p5110?
