[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asribar:
Why?

Because it runs smoother, battery lasts longer, default font looks better, GMail client is better, uses less RAM than stock GB roms...

I'm on ICSSGS RC3.1 and it is already very stable for day to day use... I'm gonna use it until ICSSGS final is released and than flash it and wait for Jellybean :)

Can't wait for the official ICS for SGS2.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapper.fishes:
You guys are missing the point

I think you guys are misinterpreting OP's post. It sounds like he's asking why are there so many different versions of ICS rom.

Well for starters, you have the AOSP ICS rom, which is compiled from the ICS source code from Google. Then you have CM9 alpha, which is compiled from...well, cyanogen mod codes, which is a modified version of the ICS source code. Most if not all other ICS roms are based on the previous two roms with slightly different tweaks, kernels, etc.

P.S. For someone who came from Singapore, OP your English is just terrible. A quarter my family's in Singapore, so I can spend a good chunk of my time there.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RuffBuster:
What are these bugs I keep hearing about with ICS and CM? I'm currently trying to find a build of rom that doesn't have any issues, though through my vast searches and trials of roms I find there are bugs on most if not all the roms currently availible including the gingerbread roms, so i guess it's a case of whcich bugs can you live with..

Also a VERY BIG PROBLEM is battery life.

With CM7 my battery last 3 days, it seems that with ICS you need to charge it within 12 hours.

Why ICS? Because it is better than Gingerbread. Only problem I'm facing is the huge battery drain.

[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
The first time I plugged in a headset I thought something was wrong, but it just took an extra push to snap it in. Since then no problems.

btw.. dolby mode in music is really good.. :)
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
i like that extra click/push. feels the headset is secured in the jack n wont snap off if you ever accidentally drop your phone and you need to catch it by the cord lol.

If you like great sound, get poweramp. amazing audio app. Try the demo first and play around with the audio settings. the sound quality you get out of it is just amazing.

Yes even I like the extra push in headset Jack feels tightly secure when headset is plugged

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
You can delete them with internalz pro (preware package) in webOS. Make sure master mode is enabled in the settings. If you navigate to /boot/ you will see the files. They will be called uImage.CyanogenMod, etc. You can delete them here, or rename them (the file extension) if you want them to change in moboot.

I'm sure there is a way to do this through abd or terminal emulator, but I'm not good with those commands.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
I have a XBMC based HTPC that is always on and would like to add a contacts server onto it for use with ICS based Android phones with HD Photos. Since Google is dropping the ball in this category due to lower picture quality and I want syncing due to constant rom upgrades and multiple devices that want the same pictures.

Does anyone know what I would need since I don't have experience in this specific category.

I will be using contacts only from this server email and calender isn't needed but I assume will come with any software that does contacts.

The HTPC is a Ubuntu Linux system and that is not going to change.

[HTC EVO 3D] phonline:
I rooted my EVO 3d. I used the HTC unlock and TWP. I can load roms at will. I have now tried 3 different ones (viper, Miui, Synergy) and keep getting the same problem. When i open an app the screen size is all wrong. Usually the right side of the screen can be overlapped or a black bar (about half an inch) is there. I guess i could live with the smaller screen, but it also throws the touch off. If i go to click a button in the app, i have to aim above or beside where i really want to aim.

At first i thought it was the first rom i tried, but i reloaded it. no luck. So now I've tried all sorts of versions of Factory resets, wiping cache, wiping dalvik and installed 2 more roms. All of them give me the same result.

At this point I have to assume there's a setting off? or something still on the SDcard that is holding some setting? Or is this a known issue with EVO 3d rooting? I find that hard to believe or no one would be rooting as it pretty much makes apps unusable. Normal things like Facebook I think are okay, but any app I buy and load seems off.

When the apps start up, if there's a video clip or a logo splash screen, i'm fine. Once it goes into the actual app, I lose my size.

At this point I'm about to unroot and go back to Sprint factory setup, but I like the Miui Rom I have on there now and would prefer to keep it if i can fix my problem.

Sorry if this is a doulbe post, i've spent days googling this, trying to fix it myself, going through every app on my phone looking for a setting doing this and at this point I need someone's expert advice.

Thanks!

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TRS-80:
I have figured out a way to copy and paste on the Nook Tablet (well, in editable text fields at least).

You will need to install Hacker's Keyboard, as well as Swype. There is another thread with detailed instructions how to do that here: [Tutorial] Installing alternative Keyboards on the NT.

To copy text, you hold down shift on Hacker Keyboard and use the arrow keys to highlight the text you want to cut/copy. Long press on settings button on Hacker Keyboard, then change keyboards to Swype. Your text should still be highlighted. Then use the Swype keyboard shortcut ("swype" from the Swype button to c) to copy the text. This copies the text to the NT clipboard. Then navigate to wherever you want and paste the text using Swype-v. I have tested and this works even between different apps, so there is a system clipboard.

The copy paste shortcuts in Swype are like pressing ctrl-x,c, or v in Windows (cut, copy, paste, respectively). Also I should note for developers that the stock ROM does not seem to disable the clipboard, it's just that there is no way to highlight text, and then copy and paste it as these functions are disabled in the stock UI. But we can get around that using this method.

I know, it's a couple steps and a slight hassle, but it will have to do until one of the CM (or other ROMs) are ready. This method is still better for things like copying 15 character long gibberish passwords from KeePass though, for example.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] daedricgeek:
Nice fix dude ....

Will help me till CM7 (or 9) gets ready ...

Is there any app to do this ? T'would be great if a program was written for this otherwise...

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TRS-80:
Shortly after posting this, I caught up on my reading and realized that an alpha version of CM7 had already been released. So I thought that my little workaround had been immediately deprecated. Well, it seems that now there are some issues with CM7, so maybe (at least in the short term) my little trick will see some use after all. :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bobstro:
There are still reasons to stay with the stock B&N firmware, so the tip is still quite useful.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TRS-80:
A small update. In another thread here about Keyboard?, ckevinwelch turned me on to an app called Keyboard Manager, which allows you to switch keyboards based on orientation. I now have Swype in vertical and Hackers in landscape. This is handy for all sorts of things, but especially copy and paste because the part where you switch between keyboards is faster.

Also (and unrelated to copy/paste), need to move over a few characters? Or insert the cursor precisely when editing (I always have a problem with this, maybe it's my fat fingers)? Just rotate to landscape, use Hackers arrow keys for precise positioning, then rotate back to Swype for the majority of typing. It's like getting the best of both keyboards, very handy!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dalkor:
I want to make a little addition.

Opera Mobile Web Browser has embedded selection and copy/paste functions, which are independent from keyboard or other apps.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jichuan89:

I discovered a way to copy and paste using google docs. This doesn't help inputting urls or passwords, but it sure is handy to use when writing text into your Nook. The copy/paste comes as part of the google docs app. What's really neat is that your writing goes into the cloud and you can access it with any other computer.So since people where mentioning copy/paste function, I thought I'd add this comment.

Hi,

I'm having problems with video recording in CM7.1 RC1.5 and cannot record anything, although photos work fine. I've tried clearing camera cache without success so i'm thinking of doing a factory reset.

If i factory reset, and see that the camera works, can i then restore Data via CWM without issues?

Edit: I've fixed the video problem. When i installed GTAIII i changed libstagefright.so (to fix blackscreen issue). I put back the original one.

I'm still interested in a reply though, one day i may want to factory reset, but losing my apps and appdata is bugging :/ (Tit. Backup doesn't allways do a neat job)
