[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Ok, i will list a few things I ALWAYS do on ICS right after flashing.

Settings> Display > Brightness to lowest ( i don't like the high brightness it hurts my eyes if i need it i turn it up) My Screen display time is set to 2 minutes (i don't think it matters unless if you just turn your screen on and leave it there)

Accounts and Sync > Sync everything right after flash and then disable syncing of Google Photos and Calendar (unless if absolutely necessary)

Also if you sync things like Gmail and what not, try to set the sync time 1 hour + mines set at a hour.

I also use Titanium Backup PRO to freeze DRM protect- , Email, and email exchange ( i only use GMAIL so i don't need another app taking any space) if you don't use gmail, freeze it.

I don't like using GPS because I know the places I go to. I know the roads near me etc. GPS shouldn't be THAT big of a problem if you remember to turn it off after using.

Settings> Location> all of mine are unchecked, if you do use GPS frequently then check the ones necessary. I don't like Google knowing where I live, it does no good just wastes a little bit more battery.

I use SETCPU(paid) you can use Voltage Control (free) and change your frequencies to minimum: 100 max: 1000 and then menu > set on boot or something similar. If you don't set it on boot, right after a reboot its going to change.

Thats basically all the things i do at a fresh rom flash. I might update this post if I miss something.
[EVO 4G General] bigjack216:
well ive finally decided to make an account on here and would like to say thank you to all the devs that continue to support the supersonic but i am wondering what are some good rom and kernel combos i really dont like sense much and im currently running miui with tiamat 4.1 mainly looking for good customization and a nice smooth feel.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Use the Neon BT theme with that MIUI. It's the shizzz
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Mikg with antrax or freedom kernel

mikg is my favorite sense rom butas of now im really into aosp thanks for the suggestion
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Jared's ICS rom, and you can fall back on CM7 [if you need camera and/or 4G].
[EVO 4G General] oOflyeyesOo:
Im using Deck's ICS ROM, its running amazing, don't have a huge need for the camera or 4g atm, but I really do miss all of the CM7 tweaks, I can't wait for CM9!!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidAlistair:
Hi,

Ive read about the oil slick online and I started to get worried about the tab 10.1 I asked for Christmas. On Christmas day, My tab was fine until 2 hours. I noticed when I pressed on the screen, I saw oil spreding across it but when i took my finger of it went away. I have orderd a repair envelope and I have got a repair number from Samsung. Do I need to send it?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theROMinator:
I'm sorry about your tab, dude. I've noticed that this problem is in tabs, mostly from outside the U.S.

I'm not sure about their policy, you might want to read up.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slack04:
Just send it in before your warranty is over. It only takes a few days to a week; choose a time when you're not going to miss it anyways.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidAlistair:
Thanks very much for the advice!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
I had an older Wi-Fi and now have a newer 3G. The 3G was built in October and came with a new screen design. It seems more rigid and has a subtle texture under the glass. The old Wi-Fi would do the same thing you described, but only when I pressed the glass in to the panel. It never had Newton Rings. While yours may never develop them, it might not be a bad idea to send it in anyway. It'll come back with the newer design screen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stuckinabox:
If it happens with a light touch definitely send it back. Funny though, when I first took mine out of the box, there was a big fat one on the screen that slowly disappeared after the pressure got taken away and I haven't gotten them since. I think the question is whether or not it goes away when they've been squeezed too hard.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Torrential91:
Has anyone found a free printing app compatible with the Nook Tablet? I tried Google Cloud Print but you need your computer on for it to work...which, to me, defeats the purpose of having the app since the NT is Wi-Fi only. I couldn't get GCP to work anyway.

Only other thing I found was PrinterShare Mobile Print, but you have to buy pages, etc.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Swiissjokr:
Cool
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Torrential91:
That...that just doesn't help at all.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tel864:
I've got an HP printer and the HP ePrint app worked fine with my rooted Nook Color. I've installed it on the Tablet and it will see my networked HP printer, but it won't print to it. If you have an HP printer, you might take a look at that and see if you can get it to work.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Torrential91:
I probably should have noted I have an HP Deskjet 3050 wireless...not ePrint compatible, already tried that. =/
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tgraves:
I'm very pleased with Cloud Print, but I use ProWOL app to wake my PC if it is sleeping prior to printing. I have a HP photosmart 7200. Wake On Lan can be tricky to set up, and but once the router is configured properly, it works great.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rodorr:
You need to enable adhoc on your Nook Tablet. There is a mod available here on xda. I used it on mine and was then able to see my hp printer.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Torrential91:
I've done this, now how do I search for my printer?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bnjmnalan:
I found Epsom iPrint for free at the market. It only works for wireless Epson printers. It won't work for your HP but for others looking at this thread may find it useful.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Grr:
I found that Printer Share works great. Have it on my NT and Captivate.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tel864:
I'll second Printer Share, it works great for me. I've also discovered that Google Cloud print works great also. I used it today while out of town to send a document to my printer at home.

This is a very small mod and please excuse me if is not relevant enough for its own thread.

Alls it does is center the clock/date in the status bar, the file labeled "LeftIcons" has the battery/singalbars icons moved to the left side.

You only need to use one or the other.

Install:

Rename to systemui.apk

Push to system/app/ through ADB

OR

Use Root Explorer the replace app, then click it to install.

Reboot!

i accidentally flashed a rom in the phone part in odin and now im stuck in a bootloop..... hooray i tried just flashing the eg30 modem to see if that would fix it and nothing.... i also tried flashing the stock rom again in the correct pda section.. still nothing any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Usually flashing just the modem in ODIN gets you back up and running.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdeathike:
yeah i know ive done this before but its not taking this time..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tenaciousj:
Take out the battery and SD card if you have one and let it sit for a little bit. Try going into download mode after that and flashing it correctly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdeathike:
so i fixed it by forcing it to flash cm7 it didnt get past the splash screen so i odined the stock rom again and presto it worked. why did that work?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Metal_Bob:
Can you wipe all phone # data from Eris while rooted & rom'ed? Or have to restore 2.1 and factory reset?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSpartan:
Well, possibly not. You could just flash a rom that installs OTA 2.1; at that point the phone becomes un-rooted and restores it to it's official update. I would incite you to use it if you want the OTA 2.1. Also, you can get this application from the Market that simultaneously installs a custom recovery and gives you a root .zip file (optional); it's issued as HTC Eris One Click.

Hope this was beneficial :D
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Depends on what you mean by "all phone # data".

A "wipe data" (& cache) operation in either AmonRa or CWM will get rid of any personal data on the phone - things like application data including contacts, call history, e-mails, etc. (Also, don't forget to format the SD card - if you are paranoid, you might want to use a security wiping tool to do that, as some file information can be recovered from a SD card when a "quick format" is used).

The activation state of the phone, however, seems to be stored someplace else, as evidenced by the fact that wiping and flashing a new (dev) ROM almost never requires a re-activation of the phone, while performing a "wipe" from a HTC factory ROM (with an HTC factory recovery partition) will clear both the "personal data" (stored in /data and a little in /cache), as well as the activation status of the phone.

Because neither AmonRa nor CWM recoveries clear the phone's activation status (but do clear all "personal data"), I suppose it is possible that *in principle* you could do both of these operations by "soft-booting" a stock recovery using fastboot - if and only if you have the S-OFF bootloader on the phone, e.g.:

fastboot boot stock-recovery-image-file-name.img

and then perform the data wipe from the menus of this soft-boot. (Doing the above does not flash the recovery boot image to the Eris; it merely shoves it into the phone's RAM and boots it.)

That would leave a phone with a custom ROM and a custom recovery, but wiped of "personal data" and deactivated.

OTOH, a phone in that state could be easily reactivated, so I don't really know what the point of all that effort is - you need to inform your carrier that you don't want the phones' MEID associated with your account any longer to prevent re-activation onto your number.

I guess by asking this question you are either trying to:

(1) Sell the phone while purposely leaving a custom ROM on it, or

(2) Sell the phone with the least amount of effort, buyer's wishes be damned.

No matter which case this is, you should still notify the carrier that you don't want it associated with your account any longer.

clear as mud?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CondemnedSoul:
This procedure will remove your activated number from your phone.

*NOTE: you need to be using a ROM that has EPST.apk (Sense or stock based) in it for this procedure to work.

1. Dial ##778.

2. Select edit and enter service password 000000.

3. Select NAM Settings.

4. Change Mobile Directory number to 0000000000 (Ten digits).

5. Change MIN1 to 0000000 (Seven digits).

6. Change Mobile Country Code to 000 (Three digits).

7. As you back out "Commit the Change".
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Thanks for that.

Just curious - do you know where the "state data" associated with the phone activation is stored?

It seems like there are only two or three possibilities, as the booted kernel (and thus apps running on top of the kernel) only have access to the usual partitions (recovery, boot, system, cache, userdata) plus the "misc" partition:

(1) Not on the phone? - EPST communicates with the carrier and de-activates in the carrier database? [Experimentally I suppose this hypothesis could be disproven by trying the above procedure in a no-signal area]

(2) misc partition? Perhaps. At least that is consistent with the fact that partition clearing/writing of boot, system, cache, userdata, recovery associated with rooting or ROM installation(s) doesn't seem to change the phone's activation status. The CID is in there (and possibly also the PRL, I can't remember), so maybe...

(3) Other? The bootloader has access to the entire flash device, so one way would be for the EPST app/kernel to write to misc in a similar fashion to the way that boot/recovery commands are passed to the bootloader in the misc (and possibly the "backup" misc3) partition. This would require that EPST forces a reboot when you commit - I can't remember whether it does this or not.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CondemnedSoul:
I'm not certain on where. I don't remember a reboot being forced when you commit but a reboot is required afterwards.

[Motorola Droid 3] newshook:
These three are little known to me:

1. FakeBlurXmmpApp.apk

2. Fota.apk

3. Term.apk

I have absolutely no idea what FakeBlurXmmpApp.apk is about. So please share your insights, if it is ok to freeze it.

When it comes to Fota.apk, I learn from here that it is for

firmware update notification. Is it the same as the OTA or different? If I leave it there, is

it loaded to the memory all the time, what triggers its execution?

The Term.apk appears to be terminal emulator related program. However, I don't see an icon in the AppDrawer. How do I run it or how it gets invoked?

Please share your experiences. Thanks and happy new year!
[Motorola Droid 3] somemadcaaant:
No need to freeze these, they are tiny files and are system related. May cause system stability issues thats why they have always been kept in roms.

From google searching Fake blur is for issues with previous build apps like froyo specific, term is used for adb / USB connections to the phone and fota is firmware over the air.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c0c0c0:
Hello, I have a rooted MT4GS with the Rubix Sence mod 1.3 final installed. I am having issues with Meebo connecting to it's server and I am thinking it is because there is another app using the same port that Meebo does(I am waiting Meebo's responce to see what port(s) it uses to handle the log in request). I have used netstat to try to see what ports are open, and it does it's job, except of course it doesn't tell me what port belongs to what app so I know which app to kill to see if it works.

My question is: Is there a way I can see what apps are using what ports either by an installable app of via ADB? I have used ADB just enough to root my phones and that is it so I am unfamilur with the commands and tools. I do run Umbuntu at home and am not affraid of terminal.

Hi all:)

As my o2x was preordered it had loads of random reboots every day. I have tried several custom roms with different results. Now I wants your opinion for rom of choise(with evt extra tweaks) for making the o2x most stable w/o oc/uv??

Thanks from SuperSkill :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
Hey

Well, at first I want to wish you a happy new year.

I think you should try a CM 7.2 KANG with IronKernel because in my opinion this combination will make your phone very stable and it will also perform very well.

Im using GR5 + Pre RC11 build 2 + Performance pack v9. Very stable.

[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
Yeah, I don't really know about the camera quality of CM because I haven't compared it with the other roms, but I don't use the camera very often so I don't really care about whether the quality is less than in other roms.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] s0cal:
I am really tired of not having much choices of roms for the Skyrocket. Honestly, there is going to be alot of flamers saying yes there are, but seriously c'mon. If there were great roms, users such as myself wouldnt be always searching for a rom thats close or similar to ICS. On another note, Im also sick and tired of AT&T throttling my connection.. I'd rather purchase an unlocked phone such as the Nexus and run the APN through that phone since it automatically forces the connection to stay ONLY in HSPA+. Sure its not LTE speed, but like someone said, whats the point of having LTE with data caps? I am not the type of people who are abusing the unlimited data plan, I am solely using it for Pandora, web browsing, and Netflix. I accumulate around 4-6gb per month. I recently got capped on LTE at 1.5gb... So you tell me, is LTE worth it? Another thing about the Skyrocket that I dont like is that there are wait times for updates to our phone. Samsung lags on updates, yet, Galaxy Nexus, since its an OFFICIAL GOOGLE PHONE, receives updates FIRST before any other device. "TRUE GOOGLE EXPERIENCE" huh?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GalaxySkyrocket500:
Hey., here is a thought.. If you can do better.. MAKE A ROM YOURSELF:rolleyes:

Hater's always going to hate.. Christ how many threads do we have like this.

Go with that Nexus.. Do you realize 2012 will be bringing quad-core phones and the Note from Att&t. and that "wonder" phone from Verizon will be last years news... Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] s0cal:
You've got a good point. I would make a rom myself if I had the knowledge and the time to develop them. I am not bashing on rom devs, its all constructive criticism. You also failed to realize my main argument was clearly not whether the Nexus is a better phone than the Skyrocket, it was clearly about the data throttling and how we CANT force the network mode to stay in only HSPA rather than LTE. And yes, in 2012, there will be better phones, but did you factor in throttling will always be in effect? So what your phone runs 10x faster and better when your data usage is still capped? Point of this thread is to figure out what is the best phone to use to REMOVE AT&T throttling.. This isnt a complaining thread. Its merely a [Q] regarding throttling and which device is best suited to work around it...

But thanks for the reply.

Yes what he said ^^^^ and let me ad first questions go in q&a and second. Lol puting down the devs means honestly you do not deserve to even use the awesome roms.

I appreciate rom developers taking their time to make these roms and not charge anyone who uses them.. Seriously, your taking all my comments in the wrong way.

I am sorry if my comments came off offensive, I mean no disrespect. I am merely asking a question in data throttling and devices. I am NOT switching over to VERIZON. I am asking about the GSM Nexus Unlocked.. Please read carefully and not add flames to a question thread.
