i use screen protector ;)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilbso:
I have a gel case for my x8. I used to have screen protector. But I took it off and realised that my phone looks better without screen protector. It is in my pocket with my wallet my keys (may I remind you I am a kid not an adult its just I got my house keys cuz I went to secondly school and I come home earlier) and maybe some coins. I don't have a scratch. I don't use any foil either

Which one do u perfer guys ? Both are awesone and cant make a decision:( Battery life ? Hotplug efficiency? Performance ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bfern002:
I'm getting crazy good battery life and performance on lean kernel and AOKP. Franco is good too, but I think I'm getting much better battery life on lean.

James Bond kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lazcoreaedu:
I've seen what franco has done with the nexus s kernel, realiable, smooth, and constant updates, it was always my choice. So as soon as i get my GN its the first kernel i'm going to flash and hopefully it won't ever disappoint
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yungboss22:
same for me. I have a freaking good battery life on lean but better performance with Franco
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GeLopez:
I found a few kernels in the dev section but couldnt find the lean one. Can you guys posts the link or more info on it. Nothing i found says lean on it. Please and thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LPT:
its Imoseyon kernel on Rootzwiki. btw, Ive tried both Lean and Franco kernel, I still prefer Ezekeel Glados kernel though. amazing smooth and friendly battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevessvt:
I was using franco's kernel, but with all the hourly updates lately, it spooked me a little, so now Im on trinity inferno512 kernel, and wow games run fluid with the GPU at 512mhz.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BusyPooping:
im still debating... im jumping back and forth but i need to stick to one for a week and try it out!

leankernel has updates just as much as franco... i say thats a good thing

i say take a week long test and run some benchmarks with each of those kernels, take a screenshot, and come back with what you like.

Im working on that now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
GLaDOS is by far the best kernel for my phone. No lags whatsoever and four hours of screen on time with the stock battery ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dwang:
I'm starting to lean toward glados myself. I've had a lot of issues with Franco's 14.x kernels.

I've also found lean kernel to be a bit choppy. Shadow gun runs really choppy w lean kernel, but ultra smooth w either Franco and glados. It could be that I'm not using the correct governor though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2086469:
I have tried both back and forth. AS of last update I've tried franco 14.4 (deep sleep ~50%) which is good but has a much better battery life (deep sleep at 91%) on hotplug of lean 1.8.0.

+1 for lean :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GR36:
I have used lean kernel for a while now. I used to get lots of lock screen lag with Franco. Which I don't with lean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apsis:
Im on Leankernel 1.7.3 right now. Used Francos way before, but after Version 13.1 i started to get battery drain issues. So i switched over to Glados which seemed to have a good battery life to me, but was very choppy overall on Wheatley Gov'.

Lean is the best for me at the moment, almost 4 Hours Screen on time isnt a problem for me, i use the build in InteractiveX Governour, with some heavy undervolting. Data, Sync, Wifi , ... everything enabled. Screen Brightness ~ 35%

I gonna try Lean 1.8.0 Later that day. But i have to admit that Franco's next upcoming with Turtle Governor might be an interessting choice either.

For me, both devs are doing a really great job, both Kernels are good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cheez99:
I've used three different Franco kernels and had freezing and reboot issues with all three of them. Never had an issue with Lean Kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MattSkeet:
I don't care what kernel I have. If:

1.At the end of the day on my normal usage phone has less than 60% of battery left it means that the next day I won't manage

2. I have less than 60% I have to recharge overnight

3. Phone can get me throughout the day on heavy usage ...

Don't need any fancy kernels if they don't tick the first box

Edit:

Just tried lean kernel and its way to slow. Scrolling in text app or anywhere really isn't even half as smooth as Franco ....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
After trying many kernels... I always come back to Faux123's kernel (Currently 011b10u). It's just such great battery life... idle battery drain is just a horizontal line on the battery graph for hours. LOVE IT. (P.S. Ultra-liquid-smoothness too). http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12512-kernelgn-lte3017ics4023uvgpucpu-occifsslqbotgfiopsv010jan-17/page__st__930
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhericurls:
Which text app are you referring to that us siow? I'm using the LeanKernel and not really noticed anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MattSkeet:
Stock.... smooth as butter on Franco's. Lean even on home screen wash stuttering ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheBiles:
I use Franco just because of the updater app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Yea kind of why I do too, plus the kernel works pretty well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slyydrr:
I've been using nikademus's FuguMod kernel as it's the only kernel that seems to be 100% reliable for me. I experience frequent data/connection drops with all of the other kernels I've tried... Not sure how or why but it's very easy to reproduce for me. Granted, I haven't had tried the latest versions of all of the kernels mentioned but FuguMod is my choice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I'm now back to try Franco's new Turtle governer, seems a good balance between smoothness and very good battery life. We'll see ;)

Nonetheless all kernel developers work great. We appreciate all their tireless effort :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BusyPooping:
Lol I'm on lean kernel. They are definitely both good and each have pros and not many cons.

I had 16 hours on battery last night and still 35%.

I am also using the kernel tweaks which is very easy to use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] koszor:
its been said by one of the android team's devs that running the gpu higher gives little if no performance gain, you should read into it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kindatired:
Yes, Chris from the Android team said that ocing the gpu does very little to boost performance but does suck a lot more juice. No point in draining your battery faster for a couple of fps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thyau:
i ve tried franco, glados, lean and also some others.

franco is fair, not as fast as lean~ :)

glados's 1.6ghz cant provide a better performance than even 1.4ghz one on other kernels... and also this is not such stable on my phone..:(

before i flashed lean, i thought for which is called ''minimalistic'' shouldnt be expected to give excellent performance, but i was wrong!

Lean is the best kernel for my phone~ looking towards to their update! :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buddy Revell:
Franco and Imoseyon have collaborated to make the updater app work for Lean also. Works great with either kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hbkmog:
I just use the stock kernal that comes with aokp rom. I've tried other kernals but feel like in most cases the difference is minimal or placebo effect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
That would be the Faux kernel.

I tried flashing dorian's redpill v4 (3) on my phone but now when i boot my phone the dual core technology (unlocked) screen pops up... and then after a bit of loading the screen starts flashing non stop. I went back to fastboot and did a restore but the same thing happens afterwards!!.

what do i do?
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
Can you get into recovery?
[Atrix 4G General] alphaguy:
yes i can , currently in atrix 4g recovery v4.0.0.2 GOAPK.com , if that's relevant.

YES i am a noob before you think about throwing difficult words at me D= . im rather panicky tho

[Atrix 4G General] Swiftks:
Did you wipe everything you were supposed to before flashing the ROM? I.e. data wipe/factory rest, wipe cache & dalvik wipe?

Which recovery was that; Rom Racers or Rom Manager.... please don't say Tefnars?

If you have a micro SD card, put a fruitcake on it and flash that, or another ROM.
[Atrix 4G General] alphaguy:
i wiped everything before performing the flash, I was pretty sure backing up everything and restoring it would've been poolproof but i guess not. as of right now im unable to do anything cause i gotta be out, however the first moment i get ill try iinstalling that recovery thing, tho if someone can give me an easy step by step guide i'd feel a bit more assured. i hate for this to be my first post, but damn im freaking out.

thank you for the swift replies guys
[Atrix 4G General] alphaguy:
i reflashed it when I was out with 50% battery life and for some reason it worked. I don't know if I can recover it back to original state, though I rather not give it a try for now. Gonna enjoy my phone. Thanks for the swift replies!!

BTW, today was my first time plugging it in to my HDTV (i never did it prior to flashing) and I tried to watch videos using its own "entertainment center" software, but videos wont show up on the screen. If i watch it through gallery it works, but i cant make it go full screen, instead it just rotates the screen when i do it, while not making it widescreen. Any idea son how to make this work?
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
If you're using Redpill then I don't know anything about that. I haven't followed that ROM at all, sorry. :(
[Atrix 4G General] slipperyfloor:
doesn't matter. get into recovery perform a factory wipe, and then install some OTHER rom just so u can make sure it works. Forget about redpill for one sec
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
You're using an outdated recovery that doesn't support EXT4, so just update recovery and try to flash the rom again.

Someone on the Nook Tablet Development was able to successfully boot a Nook Tablet from a microSD card. Does this mean that we should be able to see ICS on the Nook Tablet soon?

Not necessarily. It takes time to port ROMs to new devices. People are working on it, but ETAs are strictly forbidden. In the future, it's likely; but the near future? Here's to wishful thinking. Another group is working on CM7, and that should be at least a little simpler and therefore a little sooner.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] BOBdotEXE:
As for the HDMI,

The Samsung galaxy player, dose not support tv out :(
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
No OTG support (yet). They recently ported it to the galaxy s, we might be able to get it to work at least on the 4.0, witch is pretty much identical from what I have seen. So far I have confirmed their partitions are mounted identically, they have the same CPU, and I think they might even have the same motherboard (both of them have "ro.board.platform=s5pc110" in build.prop, not sure if that is the MB or not). The 5.0 is a totally different story though...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] parwathy:
OP, you should go for the korean version if you want the HDMI output.

This version also supports 1080p (the device is also in english), has 16 or 32gb, and I found something very amusing : the korean version is made in Korea, whereas all the other versions are made in China. I guess koreans only buy korean products, haha! But I couldn't tell if it's any better...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Entropy512:
MHL is definitely not present in the 5.0 - I tried the adapter that came with my Infuse.

There's a chance it might support analog TVout via the headphone jack, but this is unknown and no one has tried it yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Hey entropy512, would you be willing to edit the settings.apk for the 4.0 U.S. version if I sent it to you, then someone with the right cable could see if the tvout works?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] BOBdotEXE:
I have a TV out cable from my ipod 5g, if someone needs testing, i'm game :D

When I plug the cable into my headphone port, no picture shows up, however the audio dose not switch to headphones, it keeps playing through the speakers, so that must mean something...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] apapousek:
Yep, it means that your headphone jack detector works.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Dang, I'm almost sure this has video out, at least the 4.0 since I think it even has the same MB as the gt-i9000! I sure wish I could smai edit the settings.apk so that the option would show up, but I've been looking for a good guide on doing so and have yet to find one. I havn't had time to just learn smali as I have school, so unless there is someone out there with a 4.0 (possibly 5.0 has TV out as well, but less likely) that knows how to smali edit, we're stuck.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
If you want tvout settings to appear then all you should need to do is get a settings.apk from a gt-i9000 and load it. Make sure it is the same framework as the one that you are running eg. 2.3.5. The setting will show up but I have found that just having the setting there does nothing if the functionality is not there...

Let me know how it goes...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Well, I asked for the apk two days ago on the gt-i9000 forum but no one ever responded. Guess I'll go bump the thread! I guess those galaxy s owners are to busy to help a poor galaxy player owner, lol!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
FYI, You don't need to ask, all you need to do is download a full rom for gt-i9000 and pull the settings.apk out. ;)

You can use "kitchen" to do this if it's an odin flash, if it's a CWM zip then just open this zip and extract it out...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Ya, I thought of that, my internet is really slow though, guess I'll start it and it will be done by tonight.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Well, I tried the settings.apk, but it fc when I select display, or any other menu. Any suggestions? I guess the real way to do it would be to smali edit the original, but I have no idea how to do so.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
Well, I have a 5.0 and not a 4.0 and I'm using 2.3.6. In the 5.0, settings for tvout are not there. It's just not in the code. If I were you, I would use adb logcat to get the exception info to find out why the settings.apk is fc and go from there....
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Eh, I think I might call it quits for now. I've got a busy month, so if someone wants to pick up where I left off, here is the apk someone gave me.

Heys guy I just brought a S2 and it will arrive in 4 more days, been using a x10i and has been rooting and installing custom rom.

Now I'm new to S2, any thing in particular that I should know?

What is the Original Android Development and the Android Development difference?

Which is the some of the recommended ROM (no bugs, don't want MIUI) since there's really a lot custom rom compared to my previous x10i.

And one more question, what is the price of the HDTV Adapter? Can I connect S2 to a just HD ready tv with hdmi port? Or it must be a full HD tv?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxhorseriderxxx:
Original android is supposed to be ASOP tweaks/roms whereäs the other has to do with touchwiz (I believe, but then again I've seen threads crossposted in the wrong section all the time). As for ROMs, I would personally stay far away from the ICS ROMs because they're nowhere near ready for daily use; there are many bugs and problems. When looking through firmwares there's no difference between XW and XX other than the countries that the ROM was released into, you can still flash these ROMs for use anywhere in the world. Personally I'm using XXKK5 because KL1 and above are developer builds with inconsistent framework changes. CheckROM KK5 is what I suggest for a stable ROM that works good. I also highly recommend JKay deluxe. CM7 is also an option, but I personally had problems with charging and was forced off the ROM. Your mileäge may vary. Also there are a ton of radio firmwares available: try out the latest revision and take note of your battery usage over a few days. Try others to see which works best for you. There's no real "golden" radio firmware. I personally use KH3 on AT&T in Phoenix.

Hiya! Well, since you haven't got your phone yet, I would suggest you play around with your stock ROM first. The Original Android Development is for AOSP ROMs, ROMs that were created from scratch. The Android Development section is for custom tweaked versions of the stock ROM if I'm not mistaken.

I'm currently using Simplistic ICS but it has its fair share of bugs. You might wanna try insanity ii. It's a nice AOSP ROM. Never had FC's and it's amazingly fast and battery life is great. Good luck! :D
