This is why I stress making a nandroid of your stock/rooted immediately after Rooting.

You may want to simply reformat your SD Card. I've been having a few issues and realized it's been months since I cleaned up and reformatted/repartitioned my SD Card, so I plan on doing that tomorrow and flashing a new ROM

Use "Best Method" for Cleanest way (Wiping)

OLDER: Froyo v2.2 (3.70.651.1) http://keetsa.com/files/RUU_SuperSo...15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed.exe

Most Current version is "Gingerbread v2.3.3 (4.54.651.1).EXE" http://www.multiupload.com/LLV12N2WU8

with "xxx.EXE file", You'll need to Run it on Widows and install on Phone thru Micro USB plug.

BEST Method to install Most Current STOCK ROM:

1. Download + Rename to "PC36IMG.zip" on SDCARD + (Boot into Recovery +Install) "AmonRa Recovery v3.11-gnm" http://dl.dropbox.com/u/34586908/PC36IMG-ra-supersonic-3.11-gnm.zip

2. (Boot into Recovery), WIPE these 8 lines (All data/factory Reset, /data, /cache, /sdcard/.android_secure, /system, Dalvik-cache, battery stats, rotate settings)

3. Download + Rename to "PC36IMG.zip" on SDCARD + (Boot into Recovery +Install) "GB v4.54.651.1.ZIP" http://db.tt/Ck6AB18E

If you want non Stock Recovery + Rooted:

1. Rename your "(AmonRa Recovery v3.11-gnm) PC36IMG.zip" to "PC36IMG.zip" again. (Boot into Recovery +Install). (cus Stock Rom changed you to STOCK Recovery)

2. (Boot into Recovery + Install) "Root (Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed).zip" www.mediafire.com/?16a07x3800wvak6

No need to revert to stock.

Use vr superwipe

Save the contents of your sd card to a computer, then reformat the sd card

Wipe everything on the wipe menu, then flash a new ROM.

copy the titanium backup directory back to your sd card and restore apps without data first, then restore data of any games or what not.

Problems should be fixed.
[EVO 4G General] cmonsterf50:
You have a lot of options here. As the preceding posts may have eluded to. Depending on how consistent and deep your issues are, there are different steps that need to be taken.

You can always wipe the ROM and reflash. Do a dirty flash, by just wiping cache and dalvik, then reflashing. That tends to be my temp work around sometimes.

Worst case I've seen is reverting to stock. Unrooting. And starting back over.

With any new ROM you'll need to reflash your mods. Becareful tho of what mods you're using. Not all are compatible across the board.
[EVO 4G General] Skeletor916:
Did reformatting the SD card help? I just realized and did the same thing. It had been a good 3-4 from changes and about a year since I formatted my card.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mediocrepiracy:
The widget clock pops up when I plug it into the dock, but when I open the lapdock it reboots the phone. I can occasionally get the Webtop to boot, but soon after the phone reboots.

I only found one other post with a similar problem, and a fix wasn't posted in that thread. I also went through the trouble of checking other forums and I found even less.

I am currently running Wet Dream 1.2.0, although I have tried 1.2.1 and 1.3.0 and I still have the same problem. Completely wiped every time I flashed new ROMs. I tried reflashing Webtop Fruitcakes 2.3.4, 2.3.5, and 2.3.6. Tried Faux123's 1.0 GHz and 1.3 GHz kernels.

I am an empty shell of a human being without my lapdock.

Please help.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mediocrepiracy:

Hmmmm, that sucks. You may have a fugged up lapdock. If going back to stock rom and stock webtop don't work...idk. Can you return the lapdock? Or maybe go to a bestbuy or something and hook your phone to a lapdock and see what happens?

I flash **** left and right, one time I had reboots plugging into the lapdock, but it was on kholks kernal. BUT, a wipe and reinstall fixed it.

sounds like your lapdock is screwed:( IDK, good luck man!
[Nook Color General] Sam Adams:
I'm playing with three versions of CM - all on different sd cards - CM7 and two versions of CM9 (SP2) and one of Sam's nightlies (1/15)... All running well at the moment.

Problem: They have stopped booting from the cards. CM logo comes up for 2-3 seconds, blinks out and 10 seconds later boots the B&N stock from the eMMC. I can get them started from the boot menu - but it's a pain.

On opening the boot menu it reads:

Boot Device : eMMC

Boot Mode: normal

I switch to SD and boot from there...I assume the problem is with B&N since all the cards are doing the same thing. I've had the latest B&N update (1.4) since it came out and only within the last 3-4 days has this been happening.

Any ideas? Would really like to keep the B&N as stock if possible.

Thanks in advance! Really enjoying the NC and ICS so far...

[Android General] degeneration:
Here is a random guess. Samsung announces SGS3 in March. It is released "world wide" in May or June... the US sees the first official release in about October.... I would be willing to consider buying a new phone then.

Umm, I disagree. They need to support their products better, yes, but I for one don't want to see HTC put out a phone that smokes my SGS2 just so I can get ICS and then Jelly bean while they go to quad core and get better battery life or something... Maybe unifying the devices (SGS2 for all, not skyrockets/hercules/epic touch/etc), but not just not coming out with products sporting the newest advances...

First of all, it is a rumor, none of us know for sure what the hw. spec. of the SGS3 will be, even the OS is bouncing between ICS and Tizen/Bada. No one knows.

From rumor to official announcement is a long time.

From announcement to release to customers hands is a very long time.

From release day to the fully support custom ROMs (if any) is a very very long time.

By that time, my contract should be expired and I will get a new one, maybe waiting a little more for SGS4 or SGS5 ;)

Conclusion, SGS2 owners have absolutely nothing to worry about.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x942:
Has any one done any work on getting LUKS working on the Galaxy Nexus yet? I know ICS has encryption but it is not the same (It is file level; dm-crypt encryption and leaves room for data leaks).

For that reason does any know of a WhisperCore alternative?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] textshell:
ICS encryption is dm-crypt based whole partition encryption. See ht tp://source.android.com/tech/encryption/android_crypto_implementation.html for details.

Now it does seem to have lots of drawbacks, but i don't think luks would be much safer. Well, it seems they differ in the used encrypted key headers. Google could have got that insecure.

Just using the lockscreen password strikes me as a bad choice in googles solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x942:
You can tell the whole OS is not encrypted since you can make emergency calls when at the preboot authentication screen.Only /data is encrypted and thus leaves room for data leakage. WhisperCore just managed it perfectly- just like LUKS on a computer. Preboot authentication, ENTIRE disk encrypted (minus /boot), and secondary lock screen (login) password that can be anything include "pattern".

Not to mention ICS is only AES-128 bit, I mean c'mon why not just use 256 bit like everyone else? It's cleared by FIPS for a reason.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] textshell:
changing the key length for encryption should be an easy thing when compiling from source. Not sure what's the performance impact and security gain.

Having different crypto passphrase and screen unlock code might be a good thing, but if i start caring about encryption of my phone i'd try to push the key into the smartcard inside every phone (SIM card) and just enter the smartcard pin. Depends on amount of paranoia wrt security of these cards though.

But i don't understand why you would like to encrypt /system with a stock ROM. Nothing gained there. /system is read only so it can't really leak data. And as the kernel in the boot partition is unencrypted and unauthenticated anyway the OS code is open for changes anyway.

Without special hardware help or keeping the boot media separate and very safe, encryption will always only work against simple thiefs. If your attacker can get the phone do something to it and return it without you getting suspicious you lost anyway. Assuming he can get it again once you booted and used the phone again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x942:
Not true. You an relock the bootloader on the Nexus phones, this completely prevents evil maid attacks. Secondly if I ever lose my phone and "happen to get it back" the first thing I am doing is wiping it and selling it for another one.

If you have ever use encryption you would know that the less an attacker knows the better. Hence encrypting the entire system is better than only encrypting a partition.

I don't like how Google implements dm-crypt. It would be more secure if the entire device was encrypted as it would completely look like random data to an attacker.

Why would you only encrypt your home folder and not every thing BUT /boot?

I prefer the whispercore way of doing it. I poweroff and you can't access anything except the login screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] textshell:
I don't think trusting the locked bootloader is a good idea. Look for e.g. "unbrickable mod" for an example how a lot of samsung phones can be forced to bypass the bootloader on the internal flash and forced to load arbitrary code from outside. So if somebody is willing to do an evil maid attack, they will likely do enough research to know these kinds of backdoors in your hardware platform. JTAG is another usual way. Or whatever the phone manufacturer uses to unbrick phones. I think it prudent to assume any sufficiently founded attacker will have unrestricted read/write access.

And why only encrypt real data? Speed gain for no measurable loss in security. At least from the google perspective. Google will rightfully assume customers are using official ROMs and the exact bit patterns of there are publicly available to everyone. So why waste cpu cycles to encrypt them. What could be useful would be integrity protection.

But while a fully integrity protected boot under the control of the enduser would be very nice (with a bootloader that's unlocked but needs a key or password) if only the manufacturer gets to authorise new software it's evil.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x942:
Yes but as I said any one that would put that effort in would have to get the phone from me (which I carry 24/7) and once I know I no longer have control of it I would (as I said) reset it and sell it. You are basically saying all Full Disk Encryption (including on computers) is useless because someone can modify the bootloader. I hate to say it (and this is not directed to any one in this thread) but only a true ignorant person would fall victim to a evil maid attack, It is common sense NOT to trust something that you lost control of.

My situation is different: I run a non-profit organization and my employees need to carry sensitive data with them. Why risk security with the built in dm-crypt when something like WhisperCore is much better? I don't won't an attacker knowing ANYTHING about the device.

ICS built in encryption is just as useful as Home folder encryption in Linux. Your data may be safe but an attacker can ascertain how much data is there. And in some case use this information to infer what data may be present on the device. This is why most people using encryption use FDE and not just home folder encryption. When you are done there should be absolutely no way for anyone to tell the encrypted partition from random data (wiped data).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] textshell:
No, i'm just saying the full partition encryption of /data is enough on galaxy nexus and that you can't protect from an evil maid attack except by drastic measures after you lost control of your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x942:
Understandable but I respectfully disagree. I want FULL DISK Encryption not Partition encryption. Take a look here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/DM-Crypt_with_LUKS#Security_levels

Either way (even if it is secure enough) It's not going to get approved for me to use in a work environment (FIPS 140-2). This is why I need some like WhisperCore. We handle sensitive data at my company.

I have an issue maybe. I rooted my GT6210 and installed rom manager, I tried to do a back up through rom manager and didnt work. It did boot me into recovery I cant remember the version 4 something but it was orange. I tried to do a back up but it said sd card not mounted. I did power the tab off and tried to boot into recovery, volume up and power. I was able to get into recovery but it was a different version 5 something and it was blue. Could someone explain this to me? Thank you in advance.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ZeroManArmy:
I do not want a launcher or home replacement app. Just the app drawer.

Okay before you all yell at me and tell me to get a new launcher, that is now what I am asking. I dislike the stock app drawer. I was wondering if there was a way to do a complete replacement. So lets say I download Jetpack Launcher, which is basically a App Drawer replacement. I want that APK to be my "stock" app drawer. So I was wondering if there was a way to move the APK from Jetpack to the location of my stock app drawer, essentially completely replacing my app drawer. So when I hit the stock button to go to my app drawer it would open Jetpack as the default.

Anyway to do this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dennisxl:
The app drawer is part of the launcher. If you want to keep the stock launcher and open the drawer in Jetpack by pressing the "all apps" button, you need a (slightly) modified version of the stock launcher.

I'm growing frustrated with some lag and things here and there so I think its time I install a custom rom. I'm currently running stock 4.0.2 unlocked GSM version (yakju). Can anyone give me a good recommendation since there's so many to choose from?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jornbjorn:
I recommend bigxie's rom!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sn0warmy:
^^ Yep. The AOKP ROM is the most stable for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cozzeck:
Aokp for sure, I can honestly say its better than cyanogenmod!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sn0warmy:
Yep. The AOKP ROM is about as flawless as it gets. Even full stable CM7 ROMs on my previous phones were not as good as this. And the way Romanbb designed the settings toggles within the notification drop down is absolutely perfect, IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daz.g:
I'm currently using bigxie's rom and its really good - smooth and with great added features.

I might try the AOKP one though as it does seem to be favoured by quite a few people !

Its easy to flash the new roms so why not just flash one, try for a day , then flash another ? Everyone has their personal likes/dislikes anyway.......;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
The only way to truely know is to try them all yourself but for me after doing that I am stuck with AOKP and APEX kernel. Great match.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
Only thing stopping me from using AOKP is the pink unicorn - NO THANKS!!

bigxie's ROM does it for me personally, but ultimately you have to try them for yourself.

Opinions are like arse holes - everyone has one!

Again, for those of you happy using AOKP: I am trying to figure out whether to jump to the GNex yet. I am on an old HTC Incredible, but frankly, it gets the job done and I get better than 24 hours battery life yet. I remember the bad old days when my batt life sucked & I was always flashing new SW to make my phone work, and I don't feel like going back to that. I will be on the Verizon CDMA / LTE version. If I flash AOKP + Franco:

1. Will most of my apps run smoothly / not FCing all the time?

2. Will I be able to get 12-14 hours of light usage from the phone?

Not looking for guarantees, just your personal opinion if you're running this setup.

Thx in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MagicMan3:
1) The only thing I ever got a FC on was when I was using LauncherPro Calendar widget. Now that I'm using the Nova launcher I don't remember seeing a force close.

2) 12-14 hours should be easily doable. With my current config I'm at ~ 79% in almost 6hrs with 1h10m screen on time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gpfnzl:
AOKP definitely at the moment, smooth, more features than any thing else ive tried. Combined with Nova launcher there aint much it can't do.

Load a new boot image though LOL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tsunami1609:
Definitely AOKP. I don't know about smoothness (I thought the Gnex was smooth already) but I absolutely love the added control. To be honest though, it was the notification toggles that got me (and admittedly cause me to root). The unicorn was a surprise, but a quick bootanimation flash was all that was necessary.

Curious about the franco kernel...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djowett:
Why does everyone rag on the Unicorn ? Cause it's pink ? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
OK listen up bro. Get AOKP build 19 with Franco's kernel 13.1, nova launcher build 13, and the cobold theme.

Then you will get a beautiful rock stable with no FCs.

And with light usage easily more than a day battery

Btw. Bixies from was also cool but aokp is better
