[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
If you have a Nexus running 4.0.2 you really have to ask yourself, why?! The performance difference is too much to ignore. It can best be described as like the jump from a buggy beta to final release software.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
AOKP + Franco Kernel for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohus:
Simple answer really: battery life > performance

Im more than happy with the speed of stock.

Google developers + rigorous QA > ROM developers + limited testing + desire for donations.

Fyi im on lte nexus. Gsm users have more than adequate battery life :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nutsonfire:
Aokp + Franco has better battery than stock I think...

Bigxie+Franco I had no deep sleep and saw others with same issue.

Franco is using aokp also.

Thumbs up to all the devs and thanks for giving us options.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KWKSLVR:
+1 on the options. I'm sitting here considering flashing back to a 4.0.3 ROM just for kicks. They ARE fast, but man, talk about some shady battery life. Although I didn't test out bigxie's rom + franco's kernel.

I'm currently enjoying Revolution HD 2.1.3 with 4.0.3 bootloaders and don't really have any discernible lag.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dwang:
The deep sleep issue w bigxie has been fixed w build 7.2 and above.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Has NFC been fixed on 4.0.3? I read that the Google Wallet apk was not working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KWKSLVR:
It worked fine for me, although I did restore my Google Wallet + Data from 4.0.2 via TB. :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dwang:
google wallet works fine for me with 4.0.3. No restore from backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Thanks! That is good news. Which ROM are you using?

Thank you! Which ROM are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dwang:
bigxie rom and franco kernel..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohus:
people still failing to include what kind of Nexus they have. /smh
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thracks:
AOKP M2 (Maguro/Toro) + Franco 12 = bliss.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WillEat4F00d:
I have a few questions before doing this. :confused:

1. When I'm flashing these different roms/kernels, what kind of data will I expect to lose.

2. Once Google/Verizon pushes out a new firmware, how would I update to it.

3. Do I flash the rom first or the kernel first.

4. If I keep flashing new roms, do I still have to reflash that kernel every time.

5. Same thing question as #4, but this time for that leaked 4.03 radio. Would I have to keep on reflashing that radio (or any upcoming radio) each time I change roms/kernels.

Thanks! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AfroCreame:
I'm running milestone 2 (4.0.3) with franco kernel and love it. Better battery life, performance, features, louder speaker, oh my!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwhistler:
I'm itching to flash my NS4G with ICS and I'm unlocked, rooted, and ready to go.

I want to start out with something as close to a stock installation as possible, and I have read numerous other posts about "stock ICS." But what/where is "stock" ICS?

All the ROM's in the NS 4G Forum seem to have their own level of tweaks and enhancements (and accompanying bugs.)

All I want is something close to pure ICS with, prehaps, a kernel that can be overclocked.

Appreciate the insight of those who know. Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyrill:
Stock is probably equivalent to AOSP source, unaltered.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwhistler:
Thanks...but where do I find it? There are at least 4 different ROM's that have the ASOP moniker.

Hi, on Samsung Galaxy Ace Android 2.3, I can root it only by flash 'upd_1.zip'/'Acegingerroot.zip' from stock recovery. And it only ROOT the phone, it does not replace stock recovery.

Is it also possible on Galaxy Tab Android 2.3?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Derrian:
Try using zergrush. At least I think that's what it was called.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdiem:
SuperOneClick will root you and not replace Stock recovery. I did this several times when I was trying to find new ways to brick my tab. ;-)

If you don't mind my asking, why do you want to keep the Stock recovery. I'm not trying to discourage you from keeping it, but I've started playing with building my own kernels and I find life is a lot easier building in CWM recovery than just working with stock.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rxxt:
Okay thanks..

I also had the CWM on my own Tab before i sold it. But right now I use a friend's Tab while I was waiting to Tab 7.7 comes in stores. And I will not put CWM on my friend's Tab, because then he can not use the normal reset option 'Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset'. And he do not know (like all other normal people), that he instead should use 'CWM factory reset'. If the Tab has CWM. ;)

Hey guys I have been running into a problem ever since I've started using custom roms for my g2x. Sometimes when I plug my phone in To charge it after I leave it there for half an hour or so j come back and the phone is extremely hot and its locked up. Cannot unlock screen or turn it on. It just looks like it is off. The only way to get it to turn back on is to remove the battery for a mjnute and then put it back in and then it will turn on. Any ideas as to why this is happening?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] natecglenn:
I had this problem before too..start with a fresh wipe but use the G2xScrubber to do this then do a format of the system, data and cache which is located mounts and storage. Then wipe dalvik and flash ROM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
try enabling "Stay Awake" in the development part of the settings menu.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Charging is controlled by the bootloader and kernel. So if there is a problem with overheating, etc. during charging I would suspect the kernel first and then the bootloader. It could be you are using a custom kernel that doesn't handle charging properly.

I was having it too, if I change kernel it would be fixed?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dumraden:
Yea you got it. You have to pay. You paid 200-300 euro for your device, it was LOCKED, and now you have to pay a measly 15 euro to unlock it. Simple no?

Next time buy it from a retail store and not a carrier.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gtype:
No, I don't necessarily want to unlock the device to other networks, nor is it my fault that SE decided to block fastboot to simlocked devices. I was asking for a solution, be it using flashmode (maybe with bootloader unlocked its possible to flash new bootloader with flash tool?), or some other means of accessing fastboot, even with simlock, whatever. Your post was irrelevant, arrogant and ignorant. If you have nothing useful to say to the topic in question, at least refrain from telling me what to do with my money.

So you choose to flame me instead of doing some research on basic things. No you cant flash a "new bootloader".

I am sure, this has been posted somewhere, but am new to this forum and cannot find it. please bear with me.

I installed CM7 on my Galaxy ace and tried to restore back to stock ROM. the restoration failed, the phone is now in a bootloop (the samsung logo flashes once every two seconds). I tried getting the phone into recovery mode but it does not get that far.

However, I am able to get the﻿ phone to download mode and tried loading the stock 2.3.3, 2.3.5 ROM via ODIN. Both times, ODIN passed the installation. but my phone has not improved. can anyone please help?

PS: consider me a beginner.

after flashing from odin go to recovery and do full wipe

yeah. just tried that. I downloaded the file and chose that as PDA and flashed my phone with odin.. I am still getting the same problem. I guess, the warranty is void since I installed CM7.. so what to do now?

the same happened to me also.

in the past i've flashed my ace with cm7 and wanted to go back to the stock rom.

flashed the stock rom with odin but the phone stuck in a boot loop.

if you have flashed stock rom with odin..

do this..

remove the phone batteries and let them out for a minute.

after that insert the battery again and goto the Recovery mode by holding the power and the home button.

once you are in recovery (Clockworkmod Recovery).

do a data/factory wipe.

a cache wipe

and a Dalvik Wipe.

and reboot the phone.

hope you phone boots normally.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] navaneed86:
Am using ODIN version 4.38.

downloaded the original CM7 version from this site ported by grif (Kooper Kang something).

When I had problems with that, I tried to revert to Stock rom 2.3.3 from sammobile.com

To answer other question, I am NOT able to go to the recovery menu. Hence cannot wipe cache, reset etc. The phone restarts before that. The only mode I am able to switch on is the Download mode. Even if I reload the ROM with ODIN showing a "PASSED" at the end of the process, my phone is still a brick.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -SGA-:
Seriously, I've seen this before. It can only be fixed by the service centre... flash the stock rom and take it in under warranty if you still have it.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Drakenfall:
Wrong, after flash the stock rom with ODIN take battery, insertt battery, the keep pressed Home button and Power button until it goes to Samsung Recovery, then do the full wipe and reboot.

I just got my Tmo Tab back today from Samsung, who replaced the PBA on it.

It came back with 2.2 (Froyo), the stock ROM.
[Galaxy Tab General] klee2000:
Well what does SW/PRL update mean does anyone have idea!
[Galaxy Tab General] archleo:
I think that SW denotes to SOFTWARE, but I couldn't be able to figure out the PRL.
[Galaxy Tab General] Mel_:
Near as I can figure, PRL is Preferred Roaming List. Appears to be the list of cell towers your device can access. Not being able to get a consistent signal could cause the device to drain the battery unusually fast. Updating or reloading the PRL might fix the issue.
[Galaxy Tab General] GldRush98:
You have absolutely no proof they put GB on it. Kind of stupid.

I wish I could see the tears on your face when you finally get it back and fire it up and it has Froyo on it.

How can I calibrate my battery? I see a bunch of methods but Im not sure whats best for the amaze

Im useing bulletproof 2.1.0 and faux .008 beta 4

thanks!
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
what has worked for me with bulletproof is to drain the battery to under 15%, charge it overnight, boot into recovery and wipe the battery stats.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdmay20:
will try it, thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] Fahnix:
BTW, there is a new faux kernel out now. Beta 5 released. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdmay20:
so i figured out that my phone doesn't read my battery life correctly anymore, it will be at 39% and shut down, then i turn on my phone it will have 4% and itll turn off right away so i plug in my charger and it'll have 55%

dont really understand whats going on any help?
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdmay20:
I just used this app and it worked, it reads the percentage just fine

I havent been able to get my battery to stay at 100%, just says 99% and i have to guess when its fully charged. wiped battery stats and everything. running the same ROM
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
As the app says, all it does it delete the batterystats file. Use root explorer and go delete /data/system/batterystats.bin and you accomplished the same thing as that "app"

I get the same thing.. and because the device doesn't die all the way(at about 1% it does a soft power off) I can't get it calibrated right.

I'm using senseless, and I think it is more than the battery stats file.. tonight it was at 40%, started bootlooping for no apparent reason.. pulled the battery, rebooted and it said it was at 13%.

It has been a solid rom in a lot of senses(pun?), but I may try something else because of the quirks it has been having..
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdmay20:
thats what was happening to me, i did a full wipe, using bulletproof, then calibrate, Im still testing but so far it reads fine, will update if everything is working fine in a couple of days.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eddie2020:
another method is abit troublesome...

1. charge your phone battery till full (off mode)

2.when full unplug it, and open up the cover

3. take off the battery and left it there over 90sec or more..

4. put back the battery n bootup your phone.. it should calibrate.. :)

if your battery is used too long it might your battery problem
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
I might try this. My battery indicator stays at 100% for like ten seconds or maybe longer then goes back down to 99%. Makes no sense lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] gregb882:
I'm only a two week owner of the Amaze, but I've found curious differences between the stock battery and the Anker (1900 mAh). First, the stock battery will remain at 100% for a fair length of time before starting to drop (sorry, I haven't quantified it, but it's easily half hour to 45 mins even after making a call or two). However, the Anker battery drops off of 100% pretty quickly, as little as 10 minutes without doing anything. Admittedly, I've cycled the stock battery a few more times than the Anker, and even Anker says it takes 4 to 5 full charge and discharges to reach best performance, but I don't recall the stock being that quick to drop even after the 1st full charge. I haven't used the Anker enough yet to have a feel of whether the Anker will last longer overall, though.

Off topic, but somewhat related - The Anker charger doesn't seem to charge the battery to a full 100% - either the Anker battery or the original. In both cases, as soon as I install the battery from the Anker charger, the Amaze meter indicates just 96%. I even left it plugged in for another hour after the light turned blue, but it didn't help. Not a biggie, just an observation.

BTW, I got this from someone else who had already posted it, but according to a Google Engineer it seems that resetting battery statistics doesn't help. Read about it here: http://www.androidcentral.com/wiping-battery-stats-doesnt-improve-battery-life-says-google-engineer
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
exactly lol. my battery will stay at 100% (99% according to bulletproof) for a long time then once it drops it drops fast
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I left my phone off while charging, and I'm having good results.. only weird thing is that it slowly flashes on and off the orange light and never shows green while powered *off* and on the charger..
