[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BayuDroidz:
Both of them are good kernel.

Been changing those kernels back and forth between new releases.

So far, I'm on Abyss.

Depends on your needs. OC go for Abyss, No OC go for Franco. Both of them have great battery life.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hgberry:
just tried abyssnote v4.0 final with TW recovery by koush, awesome recovery, thanks Angelom.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caesarea038:
I also prefer Abyss if you need/want OC
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkinners:
I tried all note.kernels and none of the.kernel up par with Franco. Not evem close
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtzee:
Franco 7 with Darkyrom 3.3. Amazing on battery life for me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barondebxl:
Franco's kernel no question. He is known for is fast, great battery life kernels check the nexus s and galaxy nexus. His kernels are awesome.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolleiflex:
So what is your average battery life with the Franco kernel? I have the Abyss 4.1 right now, and it loses around 2-3% overnight and definitely can last around 1 and a half day with minimal usage.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
Neither... I'm using FM kernel right now and I can surely vouch the longetivity of my Note's battery life...

2 days already with 40% battery level... 1 hr of internet, 30 mins of calls everyday.. 100 texts, emails and news feeds...

Tried Franco's kernel.. I was not satisfied with the expectant rate of my battery level dropping 3% in just a span of an hour.. I also tried AbyssNote, made a comparison with Franco's kernel, and though there is slight difference in terms of battery life, but the many issues I read on AbyssNote forum of BLN and stuffs made me wary of keeping it on my Note...

So I tried back FM kernel and made a decision not to charge it everyday (I used to charged my Note whenever and wherever I can).

Now, I am never going back to flashing another kernel again (with Franco's or with Angelom's Abyss), unless some of the issues mentioned on some users (on their respective threads) can fully be smoothen out..

Just my take.....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raj_ch2002:
Franko has no support for voltage under clocking, abbys does and it saves battery once you get stable voltage ranges.

other than that i see no difference in both.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.wong:
Franco is my choice. You get unmatched performance with average battery life straight out of the box.

Abyss has a lot of tweakings options, but, i find it lacking direction. It seems like a testbed to everything, and too mixed up.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notegalaxy:
Agreed
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokkinho:
FRANCO overclocking !!

Indeed.

As I've tried abyss and it does not impressed me at all especially overclocking. I love overclocking very much as I almost overclock anything I could. I got my i7 930 @4.3ghz water cooled, GTX470@800mhz on air, S2 stable at 1.6Ghz 1.42v but recommended 1.5Ghz 1.35v as 1.6Ghz produces a lot of heats.

For me, abyss doesn't run high quality 3D games smoothly on my note. And I found out every time when it gets hot the set will act like a bit laggy.

So I go searching for a better kernel and I found franco. TO ALL THAT DUNNO HOW TO OVERCLOCK WITH FRANCO, yes it really doesn't supports normal overclocking with SETCPU or DROIDoverclock BUT good news is TEGRAK start supports note's franco kernel from version 1.2.5 which can do all the volt mod, frequencies mod and GPU overclock as well.

Here are some proves:

View attachment 991894View attachment 991889

Normal franco kernel speed won't get that high score :D and that just with the speed of 1.6Ghz only. Imagine when you get 1.7ghz ??!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdgaBimbam:
franco kernel has better perfomance but had problems within, kernel wakelocks, sods. So went back to abbys ;D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TempusFudgeIt:
Depends

As others have said - if you like to overclock Abyss is great. Franco is standard voltage and frequency and works great IMO.

I had some SODs with Franco 10 so went back to Abyss 42 for a while but found it surprisingly laggy (didn't notice before as I used Abyssnote for months) I am now back with V6 of Franco and very happy again.

In short, try them both - give them at least a day or two to settle in and battery cycle and go about what you normally do. That way you can compare both on your device. Just make sure you backup first!

Good luck - I find flashing fun :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] go-away:
I rebooted my note earlier today. When the desktop appeared I had only the "applications" ic9n right in the middle of the main shortcut bar, nothing else. Very strange as you can't seem to edit those icons!

This is the default home\launcher thingy that comes with the phone.

Anyone seen this before, or anyone know how to either get the default icons back (without wiping/resetting) or edit them ?

Thanks :)

It should look like this -

But now I get this -

EDIT: I posted this because it might be useful to know how to edit/change the apps on the menu bar :).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
Goto Applications window press menu button(Left Soft button), then press "Edit", Then Drag and Drop Apps to dock which you need.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] go-away:
lol, thanks for that!

It seems obvious now, but the "edit" option only appears once you select "Grid View", it doesn't show up under "List View", that's why I didn't see it :eek:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonehunter59:
I know this will most likely not work but its worth asking.

Is there a way to play minecraft on android other than the app because it sucks. It uses the .jar extension meaning it needs java 6 or 7 runtime but is there anyway to make it work?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MДЯCЦSДИT:
No. Mine craft uses about 512mb of the ram all the time and needs even more to run alongside an OS. That is PC ram which is way faster than mobile ram. The game also requires enough CPU power to render huge worlds and all of the changes associated with them which the hummingbird obviously can't do. The graphics are also too intensive for the gpu.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonehunter59:
Thanks for the info man. I guess I can stop trying to port it over
[Acer Iconia A500] heldc:
So I didn't root my a500 right off, cos I wasn't sure I wanted to keep it. And now I have a bunch of user data, game progress and such, that I don't want to lose when I root. Is there any way I can back up app data before I root? I'm on 3.2.1. It seems like I should be able to just adb something, but I can't think what. (It's been a long weekend and I'm not braining well.) Would /data/data do the trick?
[Acer Iconia A500] CuriousTech:
Yes, /data/data is where it's all at. I'm not positive but I think you could copy it to your external SD and then back it up on PC if you want. Then after the timmyDean root, copy some of the folders back. But just the ones that you need. None of the com.android.* folders for example.
[Acer Iconia A500] heldc:
I did the method 2 root, where you flash an unstable downgrade update.zip. It actually left my data intact, so I was able to titanium backup my stuff!
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Glad you got it. Done.
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
This was added in the OP post in the tutorial. And hey, you got your first "Thanks"

...and I like your signature :D
[Acer Iconia A500] CuriousTech:
Oh good. I couldn't remember what actually formatted /data originally but knew something did at some point. I love all these ROMs that just have manual format instructions instead of doing it in the update script. It saves so much time!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madmanrx:
I flashed the EOS 1.0 rom and now how ICS! Before I flashed I backed up my HC internal storage. I loaded the backup onto my xoom running ICS, but can't find any apps from the backup. Furthermore, on the app store (android and amazon) it says I have all the apps installed, but I sure can't find them! Any ideas?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheStickMan:
Web android store says I have apps on my phone from when I first got it - 4 wipes ago. So that's flawed.

Also, you backed up to internal..? EOS 1.0 is a full ROM, not just update like night lies. So when you installed it, everything got deleted.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Finswimmer:
Hello,

I hope someone can help me (and I am in the right subforum).

My Girlfriend dropped the Xperia Pro into water, now the LCD has some nasty blur. The LCD itself works, but there seem to be something in front that blurs it (maybe only water).

Now I want to open it, but I cannot disconnect the upper panel from the back.

I do not know how to open the slider.

Can someone help me?

But I need a Guide for Xperia pro. It is the MK16a/i.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] piotrasss87:
if your lcd still work,you dont need to replace it.Drying it out should sort this out.I have had this same problem on mini pro and fix it this way.Take the display out and put it on radiator for 3 hours.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Finswimmer:
I will do it.

But "take the display out" means to disassembly it? But I do not how as there a 4 screws on the backside, but I can only access two.

Maybe it is enough if I put the whole cell on the radiator.

Unfortunely the background light is flickering sometimes...

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] piotrasss87:
you can take the battery out and put it on radiator,but there is a small battery fited to motherboard for keeping your Clock going if the power source is out,so you maybe destroy it overheating it.I just put the phone on radiator and it still work,so do what you thing.Better way is taking the display out. there you go m8 http://www.sonyericsson-world.com/index.php?/files/category/64-xperia-series/

Maybe I was destroyed it on my LwW because after taking battery out clock resets and in root directory there is file called mr.log

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Finswimmer:
So I took the lcd completely out of the mobile phone and put it a few hours on the radiator.

[HTC ChaCha] _terror_:
Hey dudes and girls!

I've had my Xperia Play for almost 6 monts now, but It's starting to get pretty boring. I actually don't play that much like I did in the beginning.. and there are no "super cool" games, that I first thought when i saw the phone.

First, I looked at the Blackberry, because I love the design and the keyboard, but I hate blackberrys os. Lack of good apps ect ect. Then I found HTC Chacha. The perfect combination between Blackberry's design and Androids OS, perfect!

So, as the topic says, I get my phone in 2-4 days. I'm no noob when it comes to Android, but I still wanted to make this thread. And I have made a little list that I thought someone could help me with.

1) Which launcher works the best IYO? I want one with the dock on the bottom

2) Which apps works great?

3) Which apps doesn't work? (I know the phone is to weak for most games)

4) Any app recommendation?

5) Any good themes?

6) Where do I get the best quality wallpapers for the screen resolution?

7) How about root? I know that the phone doesn't have much memory, so I need to install apps to the SD card. Is that possible on this phone?

8) others - tips, trix, things I have to know about?

Thank you so much!
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
1)GO Launcher EX -> IMO. ADW, Launcher Pro are also viable choices. Afaik there is no launcher that has the dock on the bottom - landscape issue.

2+3)Check Themes&Apps section. There are few threads around there.

4)Your call.

5)Launcher themes or custom ROM themes. Or UOT.

6)Google Images?! :) 480x320.

7)Unlock bootloader, su, CWM, busybox and A2SD. That's about it. Or use a custom ROM.

8)Check the guide in my sig for stuff that you may already know.
[HTC ChaCha] _terror_:
Thanks dude! might get back to you in like 1-2 days when I get it :)
[HTC ChaCha] _terror_:
Will rooting the Chacha mess up the Scandinavian letters Å, Ä and Ö?

Because I really need them to.. you know.. write haha.

Btw, I just wanna root (so I can delete bloatware), no fancy pancy ROMS or such, just regular ROOT :)

Samsung galaxy s6102

Hi to all

I have a Samsung galaxy s6102 and have the same problem after an unsuccessful touchscreen update.

I couldn't repair my phone even by flashing ROM an kernal. I tried method mentioned in this topic but hence screencast does not work on my phone, I used ADB shell commands to enter the code (*#*#2663#*#*).

unfortunately just after entering the code this error message pops up: "The application com.sec.android.app.lcdtest (process com.sec.android.app.lcdtest) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

I tried with different ROMs and got the same error.

It would be very appreciated if anyone suggest another solution for my case.
