[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobBull69:
I have tried CM9 Kang, xrazor's AOSP, Team EOS (nightly and 1.0), Bugless Beast and Codename and all of them are great to be perfectly honest. The only reason I'm staying away from Team EOS for the time being is because the media scanner app hates my Xoom. The problem, however, seems to be isolated to a very small percentage of users. Otherwise, it is great. I've found that the AOSP and Codename to be more stable and snappy, but the sheer number of features of Codename have me sold on it. You can customize virtually every aspect of the ROM, from the power menu, to the startup processes (you can have it fix permissions and zipalign on boot), to clock speed, the launcher, etc. I would highly recommend it to anyone who has not tried it. We are very fortunate to have some very good devs for the Xoom and very stable, bug-free ROMs. There are a lot of devices that have a string of betas and buggy ROMs on these forums.

Good choice. I'm using TeamEOS nightlies without problems. 3G. WiFi, speed, tability... works just great.

Now, im using codename rom.Its faster smoother than eos 1.0.0 but eos rom less buggy than codename rom.In codename rom no 3g no opera mobile browser but i think codename is better rom
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigrushdog:
I may be a bit biased but let me jump in here. :D. Me and solarnz talk often on the path forward. One underlying philosophy of the Eos project is we were tired of the same old played out mods. "Oh oh zomg! I can change my battery text color! " (although that's coming :D). We strive for fresh new innovative features that add real-life value and productivity to the users tablet. Anybody can clone the cm repo and checkout a device tree. My grandma does that by lunch :D And because we strive for said innovation, we discover what works and what doesn't. Take cornerstone. Its the buggiest software I've ever seen. But we had it first. And only due to popular demand, we added cornerstone builds for all 4 xoom builds into the nightlys. What other tablet can run backtrack and hack with aircrack and reaver? Innovation. That's what we do. Peace.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prack:
I will have to give a +1 to the Team EOS guys. I've been using the tiamat roms/kernels since the very first release and I'm always happy with the work they do.

EOS 1.0.0 is blazing fast, smooth. Has a lot of great features.

If you're a linux guy I would check out the BT5 with aircrack also. Works great on the EOS rom.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theherodrownd:
I like AOKP (Android Open Kang Project). Lots of features from CM9 runs smooth and are pretty bug free.

For some reason after a month of usage my battery life seems to approve. I bought a external battery via microusb(1000mah) off ebay
[LG Nitro HD] LiViD:
1. Root

2. Download NoBloat Free from the Play Shop (Market) and install.

3. Trim out unnecessary system services via this website: http://androidadvices.com/optimize-lg-nitro-hd-phone-performance-removing-bloatware/

After that was said and done, the battery life on my P930 was noticeably better.

i used to get 3 hours "seriously" out of this phone ... after deploating and calibration it can last 12 hours with heavy use !
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
I've started using an external battery charger (one of the official lg ones from Ebay) and an extra battery, and just swap them out when my phone dies, and I've noticed on the few occasions where I charge my phone by plugging it in, even though it says 100% (and I've done all the battery calibrations and everything) it doesn't last as long as when I pop in a fully externally charged battery.
[LG Nitro HD] Cromson:
My device battery life also got better in comparison to the first days i used it. But for some reason i experience some strange usage right now.

For example:

In the morning from 7 - 10am 100%... later 10% in 15 minutes, with phone in standby-mode.

I checked after i'd make a phonecall, hardware consumption for radio was on 99,9%. After reboot it was ok again, but later hardware consumption for the screen was at high level. Strange... everyday a new experience. :D
[LG Nitro HD] liteon163:
Turning LTE off helped my Spectrum last 24+ hours. I turn 4G on whenever I really need it, though. And with 4G on all day, I can get 12-16 hours under moderate use.
[LG Nitro HD] sdotagain:
+1, better battery life than stock ROM
[LG Nitro HD] ATTShawn:
I have honestly never seen a phone go through battery quite like this one. I love the phone to death. It feels solid in the hand, and the screen quality is amazing. But I can't deal with the battery going like this. I input a new APN so it would just use HSPA+ .. but does that actually stop the LTE radio from searching? (I am in a non-LTE area)

My experience with this phone is that ips screen battery usege is higher than lcd and amoled

amoled phones consume less battery because amoled hasnot edge to edge backlight and pixels have light themselves.
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
Yes our screens are a big consumer of power but there are plenty of disadvantages to AMOLED: heat, image burn (like a plasma tv), image quality and longevity of the screen. The more pixles that are lit the more power it uses, to the point that it uses more power than IPS with large areas of the screen are lit. This along with image retention is why CM7/9/10 has black as a background for everything and stock doesn't. Think of it as LED/LCD TV's vs Plasma. Similar power curves between them.

BTW the little program above dropped my idle power usage to only 5% over 8 hours. I will be trying it with cm10 to see if I get similar results.

[HTC EVO 3D] ncfastls1:
I'm on Myn's Warm 2.3 (sense 3.0) and my GPS is completely ****ed. It's accurate to 2000-2500 meters and will not get a fixed lock. It works fine on MIUI, but the second I switch back to Warm 2.3 it's inaccurate as hell. I tried doing the gpsclrx command through the dialer and no improvement.

I know for the Evo 4G, if we had a GPS issue, we could flash the newest qualcomm GPS drivers. Specifically, these:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14903955&postcount=1

The qualcomm vision 1.1 gps drivers. That made my GPS work absolutely perfect with CM7 on my Evo 4G. Do the 3D and 4G use the same GPS drivers (same chip?). Would I be able to flash that driver and have it work? This is bugging me and I'd like to use Sense for now but I have to go on a trip tomorrow where I will need my GPS. Also if I could flash this, would I have any issues on hboot 1.5 if I booted to recovery from my PC?

Has anyone else experienced their sound on the transformer cutting out? Ever since the ICS update the sound on my tab would randomly just stop working. The only way to fix is for me to restart the tab.

Yes, it appears to be a bug... Haven't been able to determine what causes it yet though... I too have to reboot when it happens.

replace wpa_supplicant.conf and wpa_supplicant,also didnot work.

what should i do?

reset my system??

i think it's caused by these two file(wpa_supplicant.conf and wpa_supplicant)
[Nook Touch General] m.hataj:
Factory reset and System update got me back online

I tried many different wpa_supplicants, but none worked.

So my solution was to do a factory reset with the two lower buttons after restart.

Then it still got stuck at activating WiFi.

So I plugged my nook to the laptop and copied system update 1.1.2.

After screensaver and installation routine kicked in, I'm now back online with a fresh nook.

the app did install and it runs, it even lets you rent a movie, but it wont play.

When you click play on the movie it says failed to fetch license touch to retry.

When you try to manage your offline movies and select your newly rented movie it says failed again error 925.

I hope they can figure this out so that i can rent movies.

I've PM'd you with a newer APK, can you try it and write back? ;)
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
edit:

I just checked AndroidManifest and I confirmed this apk is built for Android 3.2 or higher!

You'll get "error parsing package" if you try to install it on older android builds.

If this mod works correctly, I will probably be able to mod the apk for Froyo/GB/etc.

Ok here's the newer APK just in case anyone wants to test it before trevorsm99 :p

**REMOVED: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23416807&postcount=18 **

the file that contains the rooted device check service I believe is

Yes I side loaded your latest apk onto my kindle fire running an ICS port. The apk works fine. It will open without a problem with no fc’s but I get the license error when I try to play a movie. I don't even need ota root keeper to get your apk to work so I think the root checks are all fixed.

Edit: I am getting the license error no matter what I do. I rebooted the device with root hidden and I still get the license error.
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Have you tried with the original apk?

If that works with root hidden, then there must be some nasty integrity checks :p

The original apk just crashes when I try to watch a movie even when root is hidden. Your apk is the only one that has not crashed on me.

Thanks for your hard work on this APK. It looks like you have made a great amount of progress already!

I just wanted to let you know that I have tested the latest version of your modified APK on my HP Touchpad running the latest CM9 nightly. The application seems to work fine until I actually attempt to watch a rented video. At that point I get the dreaded failed to fetch license error.

Rezound on rooted ICS 4.0.3

Installed "Newer apk (4th try)" and still pop the licensing error.

Here's a strange twist, have Voodoo OTA rootkeeper installed and used it to "Temp. un-root". Now here's the strange twist, installed "Temp Root Remover" and there wasn't an option to toggle to remove. I also tried to install SuperUser by Chainfire and it popped up that I needed to first be rooted before installing SuperUser by Chainfire.

But yet, not google video...things that make you go hmmmm...
[Android Apps and Games] motodroidfreak:
I have noticed play movies will not work with 4.0.3 either get 404 or downgrade to gb and wait for the offcail update :P

Before you went and tried temp root remover did you reroot with voodoo OTA???
[Android Apps and Games] HeyNiko:
Thanks for your response.

Looks like 404 hasn't been released for the rezound. I also unrooted by removing SuperUser (confirmed w/voodoo & titanium) and it still popped the same error...Oh well....

As for the voodoo, no. I have Rom Toolbox installed and did a backup before doing anything. So, once I removed SuperUser/tested I reloaded SuperUser data via Rom Toolbox. Back to rooted.

Hope that makes sense...

Is it possible that instead of a ondevice check, it is doing a online check?

Example: When we download things from the Play Store, there is a posibility that Google knows that our device is rooted, marks it as rooted, and done. Why do this? For things like this: Instead of actually checking for the su binary, they may have a table of rooted devices......

This is simply a theory....nothing else :)
