one of the new features for android 4.0 is the appearance of a contact photo in the notification window for notifications from your friends. whenever anyone sends me an email in gmail, upon sliding down the notification window i can see the notification along with the person's contact photo.

however i haven't noticed any contact photos for notifications for missed calls or sms/mss. is anyone else noticing this too or am i an isolated case?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kife42:
this is how you can setup your phone using a cheap gps holder as a car dock. i don't know if real car docks work the same way, but this is what works for me.

first you need a gps holder that will hold your phone snug with the case on.

next, buy a nfc sticker and stick it on the holder.

use nfc task launcher to run a tasker script and bypass the keyguard, set brightness, volume, etc.

my task runs zeam launcher as an app to display the car dock screen (since touchwiz has no landscape mode).

put your audio and gps apps in zeam as tasker shortcuts. since there is no way to switch gps on and off (at least in stock rom), i have tasker go thru the settings pages using dpad input. same thing turns off gps if those apps are closed. i'm also using this method to switch between edge and 4g, to save battery.

to run it you just stick your phone in the holder, plug in usb and audio cables. phone turns on when you start the car, and the audio and gps apps start with 1 button. but personally i just have streaming music start automatically.

if anyone has any ideas how i can improve on this (can i run the audio out thru just the usb cable?) feel free to reply.

When using the web interface for google music, some of my tracks have coloured lines next to them, I have no idea what they are or what they mean. These ones are blue, though sometimes they are gren, yellow or red. This happenes in both chrome and IE.

All the roms are in the Dev section. If you aren't seeing the rom you want, then it's not available for this phone yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johno168:
OK I know its my personal preference to choose between roms, but i also want to know yours. I like arhd cause other stability and stock feel, but aokp is also great since I get much more control of my phone, with that said sometimes , this 'control' can lead to stability issues with the rom. So what do you think is bettr overall?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielvc:
ARHD is more stable, AOKP has 4.0.3 and more mods. Just try it.

Im on ARHD btw
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
AOKP because it is 4.0.3 and has more choices for kernels such as Franco.

AOKP is more stable than ARHD imo. Stick to milestones if you're worried about stability.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Skyrocker:
I switched to AOKP after being on ARHD.

AOKP has more customization, less boot time and more battery!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
The only instances of instability I had on this device came when using ARHD. Currently using AOKP and it absolutely flies with Franco's kernel. 4.0.3 is a massive leap over 4.0.2, it's like moving from a beta build to final. Having in built mods is one of the benefits of choosing a ROM built from source, and not just based on the stock images.

Regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dumbdroid:
AOKP here also, fast and stable...never had a reboot, blazing fast with franco's kernel overclocked @1350mhz.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerozoneice:
i'm happy with ARHD 2.1.3 (4.0.2)

is there a changelog for 4.0.3, what incentives are there to upgrade, my phone is stable and fast as it is.

LE: found something: http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-4.0.3.html

but they seem more API improvements rather than actual bug fixes or new (visible/usable) features

also here

http://dkgadget.com/upcoming-androi...on-new-camera-capabilities-and-tons-of-fixes/

"....tons of fixes" -> like what for example?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oilfighter:
Both are great ROMs, and I've used both. I'm going with AOKP for now, because you get:

4.0.3

toggles in notification bar

4 way lock screen

raised the default auto brightness default (fixable on ARHD)

Hold back button to kill app (die facebook, die)

Power menu add-ons

No stability issues for me (build 17)

Yesterday I had 1 day and 1.5 hours, with about 2.5 hours screen time on auto brightness

AOKP just saves me a lot of trouble with its built in tweaks, so I don't have to go hunt them down myself.

One con: the unicorn boot animation... Easily fixable though, there are a bunch of boot animation choices in the themes section.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynxboy:
The overall smoothness and performance of apps, especially the browser, is much improved. When I was using ARHD, I was slightly disappointed with this device coming from a SGS2 and could understand the threads and posts about lag etc.

I challenge you to try a 4.0.3 ROM and come back and tell me it isn't a much faster/smoother experience.

Here is an example of the improved browser performance on The Verge website, which was famously shown to lag heavily on many video reviews (4.0.2).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhericurls:
I don't see how ARHD is more stable. I never had a single reboot with AOKP build 19.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johno168:
judging from what you guys have said aokp looks like the winner here, and yes I've got to say browser is much improved from stock 4.0.2. Then again I need to try out arhd. But I will most likely use cm9 when it releases it final. Has anyone used the alpha builds? How are they on battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bongd:
I thought ARHD might be more stable but to my surprise and delight I've had an even better experience with AOKP.

It's hard to beat anything AOSP based, especially with so many mods and tweaks. Usually you sacrifice stability with ROMs like this but not in this case. It's amazingly well polished and I have no complaints at all. Blown away with AOKP. :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 4390557:
My thoughts exactly - I was hesitant at first to move away from ARHD because stability is important for me. I've been running AOKP this past week (milestone 2) and just loaded on the franco kernel the other day and my phone has been MORE stable. On ARHD I did have the occasional hiccup/stutter/lag and an odd issue where my touchscreen failed me - fixed only with a battery pull.

Since AOKP + franco - no issues with an overall smoother experience. Battery life has been comparable to ARHD + faux123 v10 mainline kerrnel - well over a full day's use without even thinking about reaching for my charger :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] masully84:
Haven't even tried arhd, but I use AOKP, I like it. 4.0.3 or bust

[ROM][AOSP 4.0.3] Android Open Kang Project - maguro build 20

??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 4390557:
Yes either the latest build or the milestone 2. The builds are nightlys and are updated more frequently with the newest features but they may be more buggy. That said many people on the forums seem to run them without much issue. The milestone releases are meant to be bugfree and complete as described in the AOKP thread.

I'm using the default Franco settings - I don't think I know better than he does when it comes to optimizing a kernel and I have no complaints with regards to performance or battery life..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bfern002:
Ive been using AOKP and Franco since i got my Nexus last week, and its worked beautifully. This morning i switched to LeanKernel in order to see if it would improve battery life. Will report back on my findings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mr_raider:
Sorry I'm new from the Nexus S, but is AOKP similar to CM? I pretty much always used CM derivatives.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johno168:
Well yes, both roms are similar in terms of being aosp. However cm uses its own sources(mainly) and aokp will also incorporate sources from other devs. We'll at least that's what I think. To me cm seems more polished overall. But since it isn't fully released, aokp is a really good alternative!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
FYI, AOKP build 21 was just released. lockscreen much faster now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johno168:
Yup saw it on root wiki, however I'm sticking to M2 for stability! Its weird how cm9 is taking its time to release
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edgeicator:
How is it weird exactly? They're redoing a huge amount of the code partially due to the huge changes from 2.3 to 4.0 and partially due to them creating their own music player and launcher from scratch. I wouldn't be suprised if it took even longer due to that second point.

16/11/2009 2.0 source code released

14/02/2010 CM5 released

90 days

23/06/2010 2.2 source code released

28/08/2010 CM6 released

66 days

17/12/2010 2.3 source code released

10/04/2011 CM7 released

114 days

Average of 90 days before CM is released.

14/11/2011 4.0 source code released

estimated 90+ days

14/02/2012 estimated CM9 release

I would guess CM9 official stable release won't be until March due to the huge amount of changes, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johno168:
Well it shouldn't be long now! Aokp is running fine at the moment! And hopefully cm9 doesn't come with bad battery life, like it did on my desire.

I'm looking into getting the 16GB Korean version of the SGP because better specs and DMB. I live in the US, but I'm going to Korea this summer for two months and then moving to Korea permanently Feb 2013.

For people outside of Korea that got it, what website did you use to buy it? I've been looking across Gmarket, eBay, and just found exportprive today. About how much did you pay for it device + shipping?

I'm just thinking about cost comparison-wise whether I should get it now (because I'm sick of iTunes and the drawbacks to Apple; I have an iTouch) or wait until I'm there in June. One thing that I'm worried about that if I buy it online now and something goes wrong (like it bricks) that I'm potentially screwed unless I want to pay massive shipping fees to get it fixed (which I don't) or wait until I'm there this summer and harass someone at a Samsung mobile store.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Rueben_:
I paid £130 for mine including shipping, on eBay. Got it fast and had no problems with it. Make sure you use pay pal though as if you get the device and its not working they will refund you ( I think ). Also I believe that for it to be bricked you have to be modifying the system and hacking it etc, in which case it would be your own fault. Hope thus helps. :)

Hi!

First of all, I thank you all devs doin so much work on these forums, I am going to donate to most of you developing for my phone. I am new to Android (coming from symbian, FINALLY!!). Maybe this helps, I used to read these forums regarding flashing, ROMs, MODs, etc, it didn't make sense till I purchased this SGN. I have little knowledge. So...

I've installed Titanium Back-up Pro (yes I payed for it) then this asked for root access, then I installed/flashed this kernel with root, CWM, Super User and other stuff.

Everything seems fine so far, Titanium says it's ok, I back-ed up all stuff with it.

My questions are:

1. I want to know if this change will remove completely my Samsung warranty? (the author of the modified kernel says that Samsung can track changes done to the sys files like kernel)

2. If Yes, this also mean I cannot update the firmware via Kies anymore?

3. Is there any possibility that the kernel I use to get updated? Does this mean it could conflict with some new firmware version (If I manage to get it updated)?

4. If I update the firmware (if possible considering existing situation), will this put back the original kernel? Is there any side effect?

Please take a minute to understand my concerns. I payed quite some $$.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
1.Rooting voids the warranty, but good thing, flashing back to stock, you regains warranty.

2.You can update via kies (If your currant firmware same as it shud be for your country, b'coz if you manually update newer firmware, which was not released over kies in your country, Kies wont recognise and so you cant update) but, You will lose Root + CWM

3.Usually you will get newer kernel according to your firmware from thread you have used early. But to be practical almost newer near release kernel works for others. e.g. I am using CF Root KL7 for LA4

4.It depends on the way you are updating, If tou update over Kies OR with PC Odin, it will replace with original Kernel. Too keep Rooted n preserve CF root Kernel, you have to use Mobile Odin/ CWM to update firmware.

You may get details of updating newer firmware here

Thanks for your quick reply!

Sounds like you have the freedom to do all around upside down: go "illegal", go back to legal, but there seem to be more for me to understand:

Ok, suppose I proceed with update via Kies, I loose ROOT and CWM. Then, if I want to put back the root and the CWM, I need to find one compatible and it's not going to be for the same KKA I have right?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
1. If your device is rooted then the their is so warranty.

2. Yes.. you will not get updates from Kies. (if you are rooted)

3. You can flash Official ROM and Kernel via PC Odin. (Warranty Revoke)

4. you have to flash Official PDA, PHONE, CSC Via Odin PC.

Then you ll get complete Official warranty. Be careful while flashing. Read everything.

Follow this thread for more details about flashing and follow the instructions.

If you are rooted the device then you cant update from Kies. Just forget about kies.

if you want update device, download Firmware from above mentioned thread and extract it.

you should get 3 files.

Download Odin from the same thread.

Open Odin Attach those 3 files as mentioned in thread.

(i.e : PDA= CODE_xxx , PHONE: MODEM_xxx, CSC: CSC_xxx)

UnTick Re-Partition and leave Auto Reset and F.Reset time ticked.

1. turn off your device .

2. Put device in download mode by pressing Volume Down + Home + Power hold it for 3 - 5 seconds.

3. Device will prompt you to press volume up to continue and volume down to cancel. just press volume up then you can see Downloading mode screen.

4. Connect your data cable to device and PC.

now you can see yellow colored block on Odin and shows "Device Added".

5. Click start. Thats it wait until it restarts.

Here one think you should notice that LA4 is an official update for only some regions. it means if the LA4 dint released in your region , Kies wont Support LA4 too even it is an Official.

I suggest you to update to LA3 , any way ICS will be releasing soon for our Note. and Don't bother about Kies update. more over in this ROM you ll get warranty too.
