Wow this is good piece of info. So all can skip CF Root & use Siyah Kernel to root. So much simpler. TS shud put this
info on the first page.

i also thought like that, cf-root is like a portal to explore the unlimited universe, after rooting with cf-root then can explore the endless beauty of android, turns out not laugh.gif

Imei number

If the 7th & 8th digits are 02 or 20 — Assembled in Emirates — Bad quality.
If the 7th & 8th digits are 08 or 80 — Assembled in Germany — Bad but less as compared to 02 or 20.
If the 7th & 8th digits are 01 or 10 — Assembled in Finland — Good quality.
If the 7th & 8th digits are 00 — Assembled in ORIGINAL FACTORY –  Best Mobile Quality, you can ever get.
If the 7th & 8th digits are 13 –Assembled in Azerbaijan — Worst quality.

I don't understand this, ain't S2 assembled in Korea and parts made in China?
The motherboard (which I think contains the IMEI) doesn't relate to where it was assembled.

It's like buying a car saying that if your horn sounds like a cow then it's made in Malaysia, if its like a horse then it's made in Thailand, and if it sounds like a human being, then it's the highest quality, made on the Moon wink.gif

edit : and one more thing, what do you mean by 'quality'? i would LOVEEE to know more

Hello all.

Need a little advise here.

Problem: Gray box showing up on homescreen after changing from GB to ICS.
Tested: Custom ROMs and even Stock ROMs but all giving the same issue.

I tried factory reset, without factory reset and nearly everything I could think off but still no matter what rom I use this will happen.

How to solve it? Here's the example of the screenie.

Please...please advise guys. Really blur now sad.gif

tried aokp/aosp/cm9/cm10 roms?
try to use non-sammy roms, you still stuck with this problem huh laugh.gif

Hey guys. Thanks for the feedback. Seriously, I thought it was like the custom rom. When I try on stock ICS, that also got the issue. Damn sad.gif

I really wonder what the hell happened! laugh.gif

Hmm...I wonder what type of ROM I could try. Just trying to go as close as possible to stock and at the same time, not to complicated as my gf is using it....she is not that 'tech-geek'...lol


Added on September 15, 2012, 6:46 pmWhat ROMs do you recommend me to try in your opinion?
*
AOKP roms? there are tonnes of them out there, no need to be a geek to use aokp roms, because they just work and look like vanilla ics, just like on the gnexus biggrin.gif

You sold at the wrong time dude.
I sold my tab right after nexus 7 announcement.
And got the nexus 7, by topping up less than rm100

S2+n7 best combo imo

By the way gorrila glass is not indestructible.
Keep the sp. Heard cases of scratch screen d.

doh.gif now my gtab is worthless, i bought it for like 1.2k and now people are saying that the price i gave is too high (which is kinda high imo but i dont want to make such huge loss)

I never used RR before but since it is base on CM10 i would say no need to wipe.

I seriously dun think butter is fully working. But vsync version in xda is very fast and smooth.

is this because they build it based on the s3 rom? since same architecture on the chipset

The vsync is not from S3. Someone ported it from exynos 3 device tree to our exynos 4.

The memleak fix is from S3. So basically this is like a rojak rom but who cares as long as it all works.  tongue.gif

true this, still waiting for working butter for me to move from ics to jb, always not satisfied with the transitions, especially when pulling down the notification, lags like hell sad.gif

the vsync version notification bar doesnt lag, but not butter either. simply said, its like ICS smile.gif

Lags like hell is like over exaggerating. never had any lag with pulling down notification.

After using CM10 i cannot move back to ICS cos it lags like hell compared to JB (even without fully working butter).  tongue.gif

LOL, totally different perspective here.. hmm.gif
i've used cm10 before, its very very early build.. maybe the problem is still thre during that time,,
after that all i tested is rr, horrible transitions laugh.gif
