When I press "Backup current ROM", ROM Manager wants me to install CWM Recovery. Now, isn't that already installed since I've rooted and flashed via CWM?

I don't get why Rom manager wants me to install it again?

Or is this something different?

-Have searched around, didn't find anything-
[LG Optimus Black] Pondera:
Hey man. It doesn't come by default. There is an option at the top of the menu "Flash clockword mod" press that and install CMW. Then you are good to go.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuriousJack:
Hi!

I have a question about swap and swapper 2. Under advanced tab in swapper 2 there are two options: "recreate swap file" and "reformat swap". Is there any benefit in keeping these two options on? Don't they make enabling swap take longer and additionally decrease SD card life (since the file is constantly being removed and recreated)?

Sorry if it's already been mentioned somewhere but I couldn't find a satisfying answer. I only found some posts telling to tick these two options but without telling why they should be ticked.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuriousJack:
Well? Does anyone know the answer?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CKKnot:
For the sd life, You just answered your very own question :D

and for the "recreate swap file" and "reformat swap" options, it brings no differences at all. Because when the phone reboot, it contain previous swap memory intact, but when you open an application (use the swap) it will automatically cleared with an unnoticable delay. While the option "recreate swap file" and "reformat swap" will increase booting time :confused:

i used kernel embedded swap, so doesn't very sure
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuriousJack:
What about swappiness? I currently have 256mb of swap and I tried both 10 and 100 swappiness. From what I've read 100 is supposed to result in some major system performance hit but I didn't notice anything bad happening. Would setting it to 10 mean that the phone will eventually run out of RAM and force close foreground app (like it often happens without swap)?

When we consider only the foreground active app (e.g. a RAM demanding game) is it better to have 10 or 100 swappiness? Also how much swap is too much and why?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CKKnot:
well, swappiness value alter the system which memory to use the most,

e.g. 0 will use ram until it full then slowly fill the swap, otherwise 100 inverted result.

it is recommended to set swap between 30-90, as the ram have lesser latency and for normal usage(i can play angry grand with 49 swappiness, starting lag abit then it smoothed).

for heavy gamer, you will need set from 60 to 100 as you needed.

and for swap capacity, the more the good :D. if your swap are more enough, android tend to keep most of the application you used the most keep in memory so, the next time you open that app, it will be fast:)

and for need of swap capacity more than 256mb, you'll need use partition wizard to make it ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwiiiiiiiiiich:
This will be long, but would appreciate anyone taking the time to read it and answering some questions.

A bit of background: Came from a crappy carrier using a Blackberry. I actually loved the BB, hated the carrier so I made the move to T-Mobile and my first Android phone, the GS Vibrant.

Now there are some things I still think RIM/BB do well, I was instantly in love with Android and my new carrier... that is until the lack of support for the Vibrant in both software and accessories.

(Sad I'm reading all these threads of the 32G GSM variant being cancelled and accessories not being produced as well.... though not that it matters, there is still no mention of an official GSM variant to hit the US).

But anyways, I've had the Vibrant since launch, roughly 1.5 years ago. I've honestly felt like I've 'put up with' the Vibrant for the past year though. The thing has a beautiful screen and decent hardware, BUT it is very buggy and those bugs have bothered me. Being my first Android, I have not rooted the device nor flashed anything as if I did happen to brick it, I'm up the creek (or pop the sim in my BB to get basic functionality). So yea, I'm still rocking 2.2 baby!

Now I want to make the jump to the Galaxy Nexus. Out of all the phones I've seen, I think Samsung still has the best displays out there and being a computer guy, the possibilities of a Nexus phone might bring me back to my youth of picking apart my computers and all that sort of fun (and frustration LOL).

---

So, it looks like I will have to buy an imported GSM version unless something changes here in the next couple of months. I was really hoping an official GSM version would hit (or a T-Mobile variant) so I could get on contract etc, but whatever at this point.

What do I need to know or look for when getting a GSM Galaxy Nexus? What do I need to know after purchase having never owned a Nexus phone before? (ie: how and where do you get ICS updates? Directly from google?)

With the GSM import version, I assume it will work with my current Vibrant SIM? But will I get HSPA+ or will that require a new SIM?

I think those are all my questions for right now. I just think anything is better than the Vibrant at this point. I just don't know if I should get a Nexus now, wait till my contract is up in 5 months, or wait until the next Nexus phone hits.

As much as I like Samsung's displays and most of their hardware, I think the problem is over-saturation at this point. Seems a new Galaxy phone comes out every 6 months, and that doesn't include the dozens of other Samsung phones that come out every few months. It's no wonder a lot of their phones get dropped support.

Thanks to anyone for their input! Hoping by the end of March I'll get my hands on a Galaxy Nexus!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
The Galaxy Nexus receives updates from either Samsung or Google. Despite what you may hear, it really doest matter who updates your phone. You need to know that not everyone gets updates at the same time but when they do, they are the same updates. The Galaxy Nexus will receive android updates for a LONG time so no worries there.

Your current SIM will work with a Galaxy Nexus as well! Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BusyPooping:
galaxy nexus is a good choice. Especially if you want to stay up to date on your phone. If you dont plan on rooting and staying with stock everything, the nexus is your best bet to always be the first to get android updates.

As far as hardware wise, I think the samsung Galaxy S II is a great alternative as well. The dev community is wide for that phone so updates are just as common as some gnex users.

The ONLY thing i dislike about the gnex (CDMA) is the camera, but i can deal... plus i have my dslr and other point and shoot, that im too lazy to get sometimes.

I moved from BB a while ago as well, and its good that your moving to a "high end" android phone. I wouldnt put the vibrant under high end.

If you get the Nexus, your phone should come stock with 4.0.2 i believe. 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 is floating around, but if you just read some of the android news, or hang around the forums, you will definitely know when an OFFICIAL update is out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
Nothing except try to get it from a trustworthy source. It updates the same way as all other Nexus phones - OTA.

Yes it works on your Vibrant SIM and you get HSPA+ on T-Mo.

GSM is the network band; HSPA+ is the data speed aka 3G/3.5G - they are not really the same thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwiiiiiiiiiich:
Thanks for the replies, everyone. Very much appreciated.

Right now I'm looking at Expansys, which I think is one of the names I keep hearing about getting the GSM version from. But I do have another question regarding Expansys for anyone who purchased from them:

How reliable are they? Are they selling actual boxed items? And what's in the box (I assume wall charger/usb cable)? I seriously almost pulled the trigger on it just now LOL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
I got my gsm version from expansys usa. It was top notch experience similar to a amazon experience. Sealed box brand new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shadowblade12:
Same I ordered off of expansys-usa and it shipped same day and it was new, sealed box. It come's with a UK charger however, but it comes with an adapter in the package.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Ordered from Negri Electronics. Awesome service and the lowest prices right now.

It should work with any HSPA+ carrier's SIM just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwiiiiiiiiiich:
Thanks so much, everyone. Really appreciate all the help!

Hoping by mid-end of March I'll have one of these bad boys in my hands. Just waiting on tax return and possibly some birthday spending money. (Which that spending money WAS being saved for new furniture as I'm moving in April... but who needs a couch when you have a NEXUS! :D )
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwiiiiiiiiiich:
Ordered yesterday and shipped today (from Expansys-usa).

Now that THAT is out of the way... what are some of the better accessories for the GSM Nexus?

Items I know I want:

Screen protector

Silicone/Gel type case

Items on the fence:

Extended battery

Silicone/gel type case to fit extended battery

I'm assuming my wall charger and car charger for the Vibrant will work with the Nexus? Both are micro-usb.

I believe my car dock will fit the nexus fine (depending on button layout) and my armband should be ok as well, maybe a bit tight.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mwinggg:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:

Temporary have my old vibrant screen protector on it as I wait for the case/protector to arrive in the mail.

LOVE THE PHONE!

But I have another question. Either I'm missing something, or what, but is there no 'file manager' on stock ICS 4.0.2? I've emailed myself some files (mp3's and wav files for tones) and can't move them around w/o connecting to my computer.

Is this something that requires root access? Or do I need an app or other third party apk to have a sort of 'file manager'?

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nero:
Hi,

I'm wondering if there is any way to stream audio music and/or FM radio from Windows Phone 7 (I have the HTC HD7) to a non A2DP Bluetooth headset (I have the Jabra EasyGO).

It seems that I can only make and receive calls with it. :(

I've searched all over the place (and web) and cannot find a way to do that.

The only way is to get a new Bluetooth headset with A2DP capability?

Is there is a workaround, please let me know.

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
I don't know of one. As far as I know, the Headset profile is mono-channel only (plus another channel for the mic) anyhow, and probably quite low bandwidth, so it would likely sound awful.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nero:
Thanks for your answer GoodDayToDie.

But I don't mind for quality... Actually I'm not interested to listen for audio.

I just want, for example, to hear drive directions when I'm driving using navigation software (Navigon) instead of hearing from the loudspeaker.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Hmm... I thought the phone *would* use Headset profile for driving directions. Weird. I find the WP7 implementation to be so bad that I prefer to keep using a 4-year-old Garmin Nuvi instead, but I could have sworn I tested it and it came over the BT (and my car only has Headset, not A2DP). Maybe poke around in Settings?

Alternatively, if your car has Aux In, you could use a ripping cable (double-ended headphone cord, they're very cheap) and then the phone will play instructions over the cable into the car's stereo. This is also a great way to use the phone's music player, including Zune Pass if you have it, to play music in the car (I do this all the time). It uses less battery than having Bluetooth transmitting constantly would anyhow.

[LG Optimus Black] mdfaisal:
The application uses the gyroscope sensor to improve stability. You can install this free application on your Android device. Just look for "steady compass" or "kalman compass" on the Android Market.

I already install it and it works like a charm.... I dont have to activate my gps to know where is North is...
[LG Optimus Black] BoyBawang2:
Thanks guys! The gyro works flawlessly in Brothers in Arms 2! It made me glad i didn't opt for the Galaxy SL. Maybe i'm deviating from the main topic but can anybody recommend me more virtual games and apsp that utilizes the gyro?
[LG Optimus Black] Pondera:
Glad it helped. New high-end games all have gyroscope support. But i don't know if our phone plays them flawlessly. It has 1 core at 1GHz. I play them on iPad 2 to get maximum joy. Cos i hate lags and freezes during game. I experienced a little in BiA 2. Even got killed because of that. So i don't have feedback on them but i can suggest this:
