Oh.. you are using?

I know it's in /emmc... but it's kinda like a bug isn't it? just can't stand it if it's bugged.. hehehe... just probably me being OCD about these things

You mean Wanam is more stock like?

I'm OK with AOSP roms... but just some minor things here and there ...

/emmc is not a bug. Thats how aosp rom are. Its just we are used to Samsung way of using external_sd.

It's not a bug, I think all AOSP/AOKP rom are like that because not all phones are partitioned like how Samsung does.

Yes you can try Wanam Stock Theme ROM, closer to Samsung GB roms.

Last time my HD2 change mainboard the IMEI also change. I dun think they can just copy the efs folder over. Otherwise, those that lost efs (and of course imei) would not need to change mainboard.  hmm.gif

hmm.gif maybe bcoz they cant prove anymore that that imei refers to the phone? coz each imei is unique and tied to the warranty, so they cant simply give you an imei because you claim to be so.

or maybe the board wasnt fully damaged and they took parts from another board and repaired it? in any case i do know my motherboard is changed because i made a marking on the board near the antenna port and its now gone hmm.gif

they did offer me a g version but i insist on a non-g, i wonder if g-version will the imei change or not? next time must ask those who went sc change mobo this question again hmm.gif

THanks for clearing that up...

Hmmm.. wanna wait for Jkay though...

looks like i'll still be on GB for a while... no complaints though... any significant change in the latest ICS? I found it to be quite smooth though... but GB was already very smooth

guys, my camera dont seem to be working, keeps taking 1/2 a photo or sometimes totally blank, although i focused on something.

i flashed from miui, to hydrogenics, then back to miui (this is when i realized the camera sucked) then back to hydrogenics (camera still f***ed)

all the while i was wiping data/partition/system and dalvik...i never once flashed something without wiping all this...

anyone can help???

dear guys,

anyone got any idea, seems that now i change to front cam i can take proper pictures. if i use back cam, it only takes a fade of gray and a little bit of what is taken.

argh, i cant even upload the photo cause its an error photo....please help...

my imei is still the same as the one i first got it, i even cross reference with my purchase receipt but i think they did change the motherboard. i remember in xda forums, i read that only samsung has the ability to input imei. Imei is actually stored in the phone as a file in the root section /efs so i'm not surprised if they did managed to replace back the same imei.

on another note, the warranty is tied to your imei, and the sticker behind ur phone also has your imei, so its possible that they prefer giving you back the same imei rather than updating the system and replacing the sticker

I see bro, that makes sense. I think I'll call them up tomorrow just to double confirm tongue.gif
Thanks a lot for the info bro notworthy.gif

Btw, one more question, those apps in G.Play where it says it's compatible with ur phone. It doesn't really mean that it IS compatible rite. Sorry for the noob question, new to android blush.gif

yea, it doesnt mean it IS. there's still a chance that it will hang/force close (fc) but most of the game will likely play. there's also a difference in compatibility if you use a i9100 or i9100G bcoz both have different graphics chip
