[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chirea.mircea:
Actually if you read what people would have told you, all you'd have had to do is get the Samsung/Universal USB driver, plug the phone in (you'll need the drivers ANYWAY for MTP to acces the internal memory) and then download and run fastboot. Or the GNex Toolkit (which does evertything in onestep).

On Eris you used an exploit; if anything would have went wrong you could have been screwed. Here you used the bootloader, a proper unlocoked bootloader, making any brick impossible (if you somehow corrupted the bootloader, you'd still have ODIN available).

As for the grey banding, looking at my phone, if I turn the brightness up over 50% I can see them too, but if I leave it on auto brightness I don't see anything. Are you guys sure the actual gradient isn't made with large steps that appear as grey bands? Those who edit the framework APK should know for sure.

In any case I am not the least bit disappointed by the phone. Sure, the screen might have a few minor issues but it's still an awesome screen, the battery life might not be that great but hey the damn phone is more powerful than my laptop and I got the extended battery so now I have the original as a backup, the speaker might not be the loudest out of the box and the position is kinda crappy but with Volume+/franco kernel you can get a good volume out of it if you don't cover it... and so on. The phone is still awesome, better than most other phones in many ways. Nothing is perfect.

Hey,

I'm new here and i have a few questions, I know that Team ICSSGS is AOSP and Teamhacksung's CM9 alpha is its own, and i know that TEAMICSSGS is stock while CM9 is customizable. but....

1) I was wondering for the people who tried both. Which is better in their own opinion? and why? (which is FASTER, more stable)

2) Is it possible to for some one to post benchmark/quadrant results for both ROMS? I would really appreciate it.

Thank you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
Threads like this aren't allowed on XDA as developers work hard to make their ROM the best it can be. XDA isn't for you to ask which is best. It is for you to try and see which best fits you. Don't pin to ROMs against each other.

This mod will change the stock grey gradient background in ICS to solid black (see attached pic). This should work with any ROM. To install, see the instructions at the bottom of this post taken from atticus182's thread (anywhere that it refers to "Softkey Style", replace that with "blacked-out.zip").

This zip is 100% the work of belipe: blacked-out.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nordpolcamper:
of course that is possible, as you can see in many themes. I dont know zipThemer or metamorph, but generating a zip with the changed images is very easy.

you can find the image you have to change in /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-nodpi the file you have to change is: background_holo_dark.png
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ragnarokx:
Thanks, I'll try the manual route for now then (will try this on BAMF). The reason I thought a file compatible with ZipThemer or MetaMorph would be good is because is auto-generates a flashable zip for you, as well as an "undo" zip. Very convenient and user-friendly.

Hi.

I found cerberus (very usefull application that helps to find lost/stolen phone) and it's using C2DM connection (so we have to be logged to google account). But when someone stole our phone, he will definitely change Sim card and our google account will be logged off. I suggested to the author to automatic login (after changing sim) to earlier defined google account to not loose tracking ability.

I got an answer that "I don't think that would be possible, sorry..."

It is really impossible ?? Can anyone know the way to log in to google account by program ?? Or is already such an app that doing it??

Sorry for my bad English :/

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badboybiky:
its just 13 quid by now. but my personal experience i am telling you not to buy. i have liveview for like 3.4 months but never used it cause you need to sacrifice the battery of your phone which is already a problem.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridder215215:
I personally think it doesn't affect battery life too much. It does lose connection sometimes, and that can be a pain. I think there is an app to get rid of that problem though. And the new watch is called SmartWatch I think.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrEcP:
Sadly yes - I bought one for 20€ at amazon a month ago. Since some people even mentioned good things about the device.

But continuous disconnects made it unuseable - since it refuses to do anything with broken connection it was not more then a little weight,...

Beside the range was really short - wich also broke the connection once the phone was 3m away - and the reconnect when in range again ALWAYS failed.

Ofc i tried to get the latest FW update (last from 01.2011),... even flashed different ROMs to be sure it not the Phone....

I sent it back.

Beside this I noticed - it really not more then a gimmic --- the useability is quite low.

[General Questions and Answers] yech22:
First off I will give some background info so you realize where I will use this info if you do find it. I work in the cell phone industry and am accountable for support documentation. In fact I write a lot of it for people (unlike you XDA'ers :D) who call in to the carriers.

I am exploring an issue where data is being used on devices with autosync settings turned off. I'm looking at a pattern of about 10MB over 9 hours. The data is being tracked using 3G watchdog pro. The application that is using data is the Phone app.

Devices being affected by this issue include GSII's HTC Sense 3.X devices, Galaxy Tab (original) and more. It appears to only affect Gingerbread ROMS.

I am trying to understand the whats,wheres and hows of this data usage. I have some theories:

:confused:

So the dialer is using up data because it is being accessed (no longer under the purview of “Autosync”). From that point it is syncing contacts as well as images for those contacts.

I’m not one hundred percent about this but I believe that social networks being tied into the device could possibly sync their contact data through phone instead of the app itself. For example, access facebook and dialer shows the sync data through Phone. MMS can also use data here as well. :confused:

Do you guys have any input into whether I am on the right track?

All devices are non rooted stock and are customer devices I don't have access to...

OK and now as preemptive payback to the community here a small (vetted and certified) excerpt around batteries.

Batteries at 100% charge will lose their maximum possible capacity at a rate of about 20% per year. Even if the battery is not plugged into the device and is inactive, the maximum capacity will be damaged by this 100% idle status.

Question

I thought that keeping a battery at 0% charge was damaging to the battery?! Now you are telling me that 100% is damaging as well?

Answer

A battery at 0% will lose capacity and be damaged at around the same rate, or even faster than a 100% charge. The good news is that all modern cell phone manufacturers take away your ability to run your phone down to 0%. In fact when your phone dies and you assume your battery life is all gone, the reality is that you are at about 20% battery life. This is the safety buffer to protect your battery life.

Question

What are the best practices for battery maintenance?

Answer

Well, it’s not super easy for many users. One of the main things you can do is not put your phone on a charger overnight. Although most manufacturers will lower the voltage down to a trickle when it is almost up to 100% you are still bouncing up against your maximum capacity. Best practice is to have multiple chargers for wherever you go. Charge your phone on the way to work. Charge it at work. Charge it as often as possible without idling at 100%.
