Um all depends on your preference..most roms now a day are gingerbread based. If you want a stock gb experience that has been tweaked and performs great, but has no ui changes then cognition.

Miui which im using now is visually one of my favorite battery life is good, but there are better roms for batty life. I like the fact that it has it's own theme market.

Apex is a gingerbread rom but has slot of visual tweaks.

There are tons I say you research and make your decision.

Right now I'm using Dlev's ROM which is JVQ based. Works very well for me and I'm able to squeeze out 20+ hours of battery life from a full charge. I use the Dolphin browser with it since the stock one is still glitches a bit.

Thanks, guys. I want to know how to install a kernel since most ROMs use other kernels (I have KB1). Or what ROMs are out there for KB1 aside from Fasty, Fusion, and Nostalgia? Insight would be appreciated :)

Kernels are included in Rom flash

you really need to do some reading and understand what you are doing.... i have a feeling we will be seeing another thread from you in the future about you bricking your phone.

firmware is for all intents and purposes, the rom

going back to stock is not necessary....

It depends...... If you want a Froyo ROM.... I would recommend you Apex (I think the last froyo release was 5.3) It has a good GPS, baterry life and really great window animattions!! If you want A Gingerbread ROM.... It could be Dlev 3.9 (Whit DarkCore JVQ kernel 2.8, For any reason I dont like Talon) It works really good for me!! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robafet:
Is there any way to get the phone to automatically detect usb plugged in as drives on my pc, seen quite a few automount apps in market, but they all seem to either need rooted phone or only mount the sd card, and not mount inbuilt storage. Any ideas folks, as having to go into settings, network setting and usb settings is a royal pain each time I want to put anything on the phone.

Kies doesn't work at all, says need MTP drivers which I've tried reinstalling to no effect(I digress -this is a separate issue) .

Thanks in advance for any help provided peeps.

...... ? :)
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] zoso28:
It depends which version you're running. He switched to the orange GB build around version 1.0, so themes for 4.5.91 won't work on his newest version.. Check the Cherryblur thread for when he changed builds.

edit: he even put a couple of themes on the OP that will work with his newest version. One is an AOSP look, the other is his cherry theme. For everything else you'll have to match the theme with the GB build that he's currently using.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] PakaPakaxz:
I'm using the newest v1.2, yes it is orange GB build ..

And all the themes are for 4.5.91 ..

I installed the STOCK but the 1% battery is broken and i want other bootanimation..

How to match the theme ? :X devs thing don't you think?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] zoso28:
HERE is the link to the battery stats fix thread. The boot animation can be changed regardless of your ROM, and HERE is a thread about boot animations. Not sure about themes for 2.3.4 ORFR (4.5.2A).

HI guys can you help me with problem.

I can see all my photos and movies on my phone via dlna on WIndows 7,

all works well.

But I cant find the same thing for OSX,

i can only share files from my Imac, i cant use it just as a screen like on a PC.

Does anyone know how can i solve this mystery?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Javi22:
Hello, I've got a little question in order to improve my battery life.

If I set auto sync off, will help me with battery? For example, gmail is every time working when auto sync is on? Or contacts, are every time being sync?

And when I'm not on WiFi (when I haven't got ibterbet). Is trying to sync too?

Maybe is better to set tasker for making a sync every x hours, 8 for example, is it? What can you tell me about? Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
Turning OFF auto-sync will surely save your battery as your applications won't try to connect to the internet when Wifi/GPRS is not available. You'll see a good increase in battery life. As it is always easy to turn ON auto sync through the power widget or notification bar, you won't find it difficult turning it ON when you need it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Javi22:
Ok so I can use tasker, for sync every 8 hours for example. So can you confirm If does exist any way for setting push notifications for gmail?

Thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
Sorry am not familiar with tasker or any other related app.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Javi22:
Ok no problem, I have already set tasker for syncing every 8 hours, it's ok
[Motorola Droid 3] cyclistmass:
I was wondering if there was a way to change the number of screens on the Droid 3's motoblur. I noticed the welcome video had 7 screens and that sounds perfect to me. Also, does motoblur no longer have profiles? I'd love a work/home profile for apps.

-cm
[Motorola Droid 3] CLB-NL:
It's not Motoblur, whats on this Droid!

More homescreens means another installing launcher I think...
[Motorola Droid 3] gravenimage:
I would also like to figure this out, I only want 3 screens, 5 its more than I need
[Motorola Droid 3] rtbrjason:
I prefer one screen myself, with my most used apps nearest the bottom + the dock buttons. I use Launcher Pro for that. Launcher pro also allows me to hide over 30 stock apps that I don't want to see. LP will allow for up to 7 screens.
[Motorola Droid 3] Pokelover980:
I'd love to agree with it not being Blur, but if you go to the Files app, Internal Storage->Android->data, and scroll down the list, one of the folders is for an app named 'com.motorola.blur.home'... hmm... I wonder what that could be :p It seems Motorola themselves just wants to move away from the name, but they can't seem to update their apps to reflect that :D
[Motorola Droid 3] gravenimage:
I was running 1 screen for a while on my OG, and loved that set up, but I'm using more widgets now than I was then. And until I can use that sweet quick contacts widget in LP, I'm stuck with the blur.

Ah Please Help!! Went ComRom 2.1 to DL09 stock but OTA says "no updates available"

I was messing around with different roms which had been working previously.. And this time when I tried to go back to stock using my Dl09 odin file, which worked, OTA updates take forever to check for new ones, and now say that there are "no updates available." I really want to OTA to ED04 before I do anything else but I appear to be stuck on Dl09. I'd Odin'd back to stock several times before this and was always able to get the OTA updates... Does anybody have any idea why I wouldnt be able to get them now?:confused::confused:

according to my phone info...

Hardware version i500.04

Firmware version 2.1-update1

Baseband version S:i500.04 V.DL09

Kernel version: 2.6.29

Build: SCH-I500.DL09

Note: the most recent rom I was at before I reverted to stock was ComRom UKB 2.1, with the standalone PB&J -100 UV'd kernal from IMNUTS.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skafan2:
A lot of people are having trouble with OTA updates... however, dl09 seems to be the one that works the best. Another user said that they were having problems with the update server this morning, but just waited a couple hours and it came back online.

It may also be that Verizon pulled the D04 update temporarily as not to break any more phones. If so, you're out of luck until they put it back online.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hymizzle:
Search in the xda development there are EA28 and ED01 zip files you can flash. Just make sure they are named update.zip and flash from stock recovery. Also you can flash DL09 to ED04 radio.

Keep me Fascinated.

hi guys!

I'm not so new here, but i think it's my first post. And a hope not start bad...heheheh

Well, i have a question. I just bought a mustang micro sd card (class10) and i've noticed that not all apps and games can be moved. I mean, what files are moved? Gameloft games are able to move but not at all. All folders with bigger files stay on the phone. And the problem doesn't stops here, the only options I have is to move files between USB storage and device memory...and not for external sdcard. I can see the folder external_sd, but how can I use this?

So, do I have space on external sd card just for photos, music and videos?? Any help is welcome!

Thanks for attention and sorry about my english!:D

but galaxy s2 the sdcard folder is inside the fone, not the real sd card...

too bad...
[Galaxy S II General] KyL416:
The sdcard folder is just the SG2's internal storage. You have to go to sdcard/external_sd to access the actual micro SD card.
[Galaxy S II General] veyka:
With 1GB of /data and 11GB on /sdcard I am not sure why you would need to move data to the microSD.

a 32GB card would be good for media and such though.
[Galaxy S II General] titijr:
Yeah, i know that...i was wondering if there is a way to use the external_sd as the real sdcard. Understand what i mean?

It's bcause games. I like games a lot...and probably I will need space soon...I'm about to accept the fact about the external sd just for media and such though...
[Nexus S General] bettingpython:
Hello all, just thought I'd intro myself in the Nexus S section. Recently fired at&t so went to sprint and getting the wife and I nexus S phones, (the big brown company says they delivered today!). Going to miss our captivates though but with the big beast trying to swallow t-mobile I felt stuck with going back to a cdma carrier and sprint having the nexus s sealed the deal.
[Nexus S General] HareyCarey:
Check out the FAQ in the Q&A section, then head over to the NS4G developement section if you are interested in rooting and other fantastic things that we love to do. These phones are incredibly easy to deal with.
[Nexus S General] bettingpython:
Oh it wont stay stock for long. Wife and I are both running CM7 on the captivates and I have been running TKglitch kernel overclocked to 1.5Ghz.
[Nexus S General] superm1:
NS4G is the first phone i'm actually happy with stock. Just install su and it's good to go!
[Nexus S General] Enhanced:
I had a Captivate running CM7 and TheEscapist's kernel so I was in the same boat as you were pretty much.

The thing I, and you may notice as well is that the stock ROM fits most of our needs (whereas CM7 for the Captivate was a significant change) with all we really need is a OC/UV kernel with BLN, Voodoo and the notification toggles.

As such, I'd suggest running Oxygen which solves all of that. I don't really see what other real features from CM7 I would consider significant enough to go through the nightlies/RCs and such (maybe their lockscreen enhancements). Plus, I hear CM7 has some reboot problems and lowered battery life.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gobluewolverines4:
But I'm extremely nervous from all the problems. First off is receiving one with a stuck pixel. Is there a fix for this? Because this just straight up scares me. Next is, i ordered it through Amazon LLC, Do they ship it as fragile as they should like with alot of protection? And finally has Asus come up with a fix with the speaker imbalances? That also scares me, even though there is a fix here on XDA.

I agree with the above posters, you'll probably be fine and if it does have a few problems you probably wont notice them over time, unless your anal about stuff being perfect.

My suggestions are when you first get it is to root it, overclock it and installed a modded 3.1 rom. It makes it so much faster. Dont worry about bricking the device because we have nvflash to unbrick it.
