You will have to follow this part of the instructions carefully, the boot and lda flags are important!, also please tell us what OS you are using and which tool you used to format the SD

Using a new SDCard (not one you have info stored on) make a new MSDOS partition table and add a 50 MB FAT32 partition as the first primary partition. Then make sure you enable to boot and lda flags.

Also check the OS version, 1.4.0 or 1.4.1?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shamrockx86:
ok heres the deal guys a got an upgrade next month and im trying to decide between the two. my main points of interest are a soild camera both front and rear, music, speed, wireless tether, display, development,build quality, and signal aka connectivity. the only thing keeping me from going straight to the gnex atm is the camera, signal (i read alot of issues with the gnex) and the processor is a tid bit slower. dont get me wrong i love stock android over sense then again the dialer for sense is nice with the auto completion. idk i just cant decide i know ill get a more 1 sided opinion on this forum but try to be open minded on your opinions....

This solves it every time. Don't like some guys on a forum tell you what device to buy... choose what's best for you. Just be an informed consumer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ferradinho:
I carry both phones on a daily basis. Both of them are great devices in their own respect. The only thing I'm not in love with on my nexus is the camera. If I'm going to take a picture I'll usually reach for my Rezound first but that's about the only time I will. The battery life has been better on my Rezound also but that is mostly due to the fact that I don't use it as much as my Nexus. The Nexus feels better in my hand than the Rezound (which I also like better than the blocky Razr), I like how well it rests in my palm and also really like the curved screen. As far as processor goes there is also much more to consider than a 300mhz bump in clock speed between the two. And after using my Nexus I will never want anything other than Vanilla Android 4.0+. It pains me to use anything else. Lol.

The signal on both of them has seemed equal to me to be honest. I haven't had any of the issues other users have reported with the Nexus and both are reliable as far as network connectivity and speed. The build quality on both of them are solid. As far as music goes the Rezound does come with the beats headphones which are nice...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Sort of agree with this but sometime demo units are laggy and not a full-representation of what the phone actually is when a person is using it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ferradinho:
Well put. The demo units are generally not a good representation as far as performance. I still recommend getting them in your hands to see what feels comfortable to each individual. It will also give you a good idea on the user interface differences and pros/cons of each.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LuffyPSP:
This sums up why i use my nexus more than my sgs2. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APeaceofStrange:
The only reasons I would see to get a rezound would be if you love sense, or if you really need a good on your phone. I was a little iffy about the nexus, but 2 weeks in I have zero regrets. But then again camera isn't that important to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] XAviierG:
MIUI have the auto fill dialer :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ferradinho:
I was also going to mention that. Most custom roms have that feature as well as many, many more...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meets34:
I wouldnt want Sense or any other manufacturer skin/bloat/launcher, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdanders:
I have a GN and my wife has a rezound. Both are great phones. The Rezound does get a bit better reception. The screen is a matter of preference... The rezound is brighter, but the GN has richer colors.

I think the GN feels better in my hand and I personally prefer the button configuration

GN is definitely easier to root, although I did manage to unlock and rom the rezound also.

[Kindle Fire General] tokyostomp:
Anyone come up with a hack to change the default orientation to orientation upsislde down. I prefer having the power button on top. I can easily turn the kindle 180 but some apps/games don't rotate (where's my water). Also I am left handed and don't mind my case opening from the left
[Kindle Fire General] ndoren:
You can use the lock/unlock feature (leftmost control on the toolbar that you bring down to change volume, brightness, etc). This locks the screen in whatever orientation you want.

The problem is that that many games (and other apps demanding high video performance) bypass the standard video API and write directly to video memory. Those will never be able to be rotated, unfortunately, through any system utility or external app.
[Kindle Fire General] tokyostomp:
I see. I'm positive there can be a hack to make the default orientation flipped. From an app this cant be done. But once you get into modifying system files. I assume it can be done once the value is located
[Kindle Fire General] gadgetman13:
Agreed. This is something that Amazon should do, though, we shouldn't have to hack our tablets for this really basic functionality. The lock screen not rotating was really bad.

Does anyone know how to remove the beeps when ur phone gets below 15%? Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
[LG Revolution] JohnnyAn:
I'm not sure, but if anyone knew how to get rid of them, and the pop up notification, I would be grateful :-)
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
you can find it using a file explorer of some type (like root explorer) in /system/sounds/effect

I would imagine you could either delete the file or find another sound and replace it.
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
You could also change at what percent it displays that message and sound in the xml default is 15% you could change it too 1%. Don't have it readily available but framework-res.apk/res/values and it is one of the xml's in there of course you need too decompile the apk too be able too read the xml and too even get a values folder for that matter.
[LG Revolution] revo1185:
So I deleted the sound file. Now I have a Droid beatbox that I didn't put in there and I can not get it to stop when I have any notification. I have tried replacing and put a file in with no differences. Any ideas?

[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
It beeps at 1%. I left that as a warning of get your phone plugged in or its going to die for myself. If your battery is that low when going to bed why don't you just turn it off?
[LG Revolution] revo1185:
My phone still beeps when it drops below 15% not 1%. I should have said that. I followed your instructions for the update. It has been that way since you posted the update.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Did you install a theme?
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
I think the only theme so far that implements the 1% change is the cyan one drt is working on...actually I'm not sure of he put that up yet but I know it's done.
[LG Revolution] revo1185:
So what your saying is its spc's fault. Kidding atleast I know why now.

So how do I change it?
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
Just messing with ya spc! Also I'm not trying to confuse people to think it will just work I changed it myself.
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
Decompile framework-res.apk navigate to res/values/integers.xml and in there is a line to change it to whatever you want really I changed to 1% so I know is getting ready to cut off
[LG Revolution] Ronjoe:
Instead of trying to cure a symptom of a problem, try fixing the problem directly. You should try charging your phone more often, like at work. If you're willing to spend a bit of money, you could also try to get the extended battery. If the phone is going low on battery through regular use, you need to change something.

[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Great tutorial

As a note, in step 6, you could flash any custom rom to /system. You might not be able to restore /data though. Can try and if no go do a data wipe. If you backup apps with titanium backup and call logs/sms/mms with mybackroot its not such a big deal. Just redownload those 2 apps and restore everything(honestly I rarely nandroid, only if im doing something im confident will end in a fastboot flash, I just use those 2 apps). Im running liberty in /systemorig and eclipse in /system
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Also zergrush should root anything I believe 2.2.x and up. You could save the hassle of getting one click. AFAIK anyways. When I first rooted I used the one click as well(way back when it first came out)but I know it roots 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 and works on other models as well. Originally for one of the Sony experia phone
[Motorola Droid 3] dasilva333:
Thanks for the tip I wouldn't have been able to get this far without your help Endoroid. I'll edit the How-To to use the same root twice, I wish mods would sticky more useful posts like zerg's root instead of pete's root and How-To such as this one.
[Motorola Droid 3] ncho2233:
Thanks for the detailed tutorial. I'm on Bell 2.3.6, rooted. Step 2 did not work for me. I could install the program (droid3 CW bootstrap) and click the first button (with "success" popup), but reboot into recovery would not work. It would simply boot up normally. If I held "m" down then I could get to the blackscreen menu, scroll down and select BP tools, but still, a normal bootup would follow.

I used root explorer to check for what the bootstrap program did. In /system/bin/ directory was the "hijack" file as well as a modified "logwrapper" and the original "logwrapper" which was renamed to "logwrapper.bin". Uninstalling the bootstrap did not remove these. To manually uninstall, I removed hijack, logwrapper and renamed logwrapper.bin to logwrapper.

I also tried Koush's Rom Manager from the Market and selected "Droid 3" as the device, but it also would not achieve a boot into CWM Recovery menu.

I tried the two programs separately and then together, but it made no difference.

My next step was to try Safestrap Recovery v1.08 from hash-of-codes. This installed and has allowed me to boot into the green recovery menu after powering down fully, holding "m" and pressing the power button. On the next black screen, scrolled down to "bp tools" with volume down button and then pressed volume up to select it. I went into "backup and restore" and created a nandroid backup of my current 2.3.6 Bell system. (volume up/down to scroll, power button to select).

Sorry if I'm being verbose with the button presses but thought it might help for future reference and maybe for others as well.

Question now is which step to go to now... do I try using RSDLite to flash the fastboot package for Iusacell Mexico file? If I understand correctly, this will change the radio and also there is no going back at this point to stock Bell.

I'm concerned about warranty service if something goes wrong and there's no still no Bell SBF to flash back to stock. Would it be that noticeable? If I restored my nandroid backup, would I still be on the upgrade path with Bell? If I restored the backup and deleted safestrap recovery, would it show?
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
First, you may wish to just go with safestrap and try flashing g rom in safe mode. If it bootloops no harm done because your bell /system is intact

If that fails you can try using motofastboot instead of rsdlite to just flash /system. You can restore your /system with your nandroid.

As far as I know roms should work with bell 2.3.6.

If you do end up flashing the whole fastboot package with rsdlite you can make your phone appear to be bell stock. You can restore your nandroid and then mod the build.prop so about phone shows bell info. The warranty guys would have to look deep to see its been changed.

Its up to you ultimately but as I said I don't think you would have to flash the fastboot. Safestrap should work as is on bell 2.3.6. As long as you don't mess with /systemorig (nonsafe mode) its easy to remove the evidence. Uninstall safestrap recovery and remove su/superuser

If I recall correctly dasilva had his issue due to being on 2.3.4 and unable to update.
[Motorola Droid 3] ncho2233:
Thanks Endoroid. I went ahead and tried installing Rick#2's latest patched version of CM9 and to my great surprise it worked and the phone has booted up running ICS. I'm pretty happy since I didn't think this was possible without losing the ability to get back to Bell stock and right now, I think it's still possible since I didn't flash any other country's fastboot files. Is this right?
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Correct

Safestrap was built with the idea of keeping your phone intact. You can still easily receive OTA updates and can return your phone to stock if you need to get warranty repair done

On a Samsung T-Wizz ROM, this may be quite difficult to find. You can Tasker to do what you requested though.

Create a new profile that is activated whenever you launch one of the apps in question.

Have the profile turn off auto brightness and set the screen brightness to x.

Set the end-profile condition to when the apps is closed and the end profile action to set auto-brightness back on.

[Android Software Development] mtmerrick:
So, as I've been thinking about Intel's announcements about medfield atom powered android devices, and the pre-existing android x86 project. I've previously asked the question if you could load windows 7/8 onto an android x86 device, and the answer was, pretty much yes, as long as there are drivers. But running windows isn't that great of an option for a mobile device, so i dug around and saw WINE, which i had forgotten about. From what i've learned, it requires X11 library support on the OS for windows programs to run. Android does not support X11, which stops WINE from being able to run on android X86. Now, with android (and, apparently X) being open source, surely there's a way to build enough of it into android so that WINE can run? One of, say, the x86 android tablets intel and motorola agreed to make would be amazing if a custom ROM could be created to be able to have some support for X, and therefore run WINE.

Now, i'm no dev so i have no idea how difficult (or not) this would be, but it seems completely possible, and it also seems like a much preferable alternative to any metro-haters.

(and yes, i've seen this, i consider it worthless to run an emulator in an alternate OS on a phone. i'm looking for native support.)

Please, don't troll, flame, report, or anything else i know you all love to do. I just wondered if this actually is possible - seems like it should be - and what work would have to go into it to get it to work.

thanks to anyone who can help answer!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NoctMonster:
Currently using latest calk rom I get about 2 hours using my phone for browsing thr internet at home. When 3g is turned on it drains even faster.

It has always been like this. If the phone is set on idle without 3g and wifi it lasts about 10 hours.

also it takes about 3 to 4 hours to fully charge, i feel this is too long.

so any rom that might help me? is the battery faulty?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobe4rings:
why are you using your phone to browse all day long ? use a pc or a tablet. its a phone not a desktop pc. plus put it into airplane mode and then turn wifi on, it disables the cel/data radios hence the battery last longer. If your phone takes 3-4 hours to charge from 0-100 something is wrong with it. turn if off and charge it, cuts down charging time A LOT !

is this on a "clean install"?

is there some app you have loaded that might be pinging/updating constantly? (I'm on the exact same rom, getting all day at least)

what modem are you on?

did you flash a custom kernel?

do you know how to take a screenshot of battery usage? show us what processes are eating it?
