Dont think so..but there a lof of mod at apps n theme section..i think only team rom work with locked bootloader..

U could head there n pick what mod u like then flash it or changing system apps..

Why use someone else rom. When u can mod it look n feels urself..do try out sxs mod..it look way better than all the ics beta out there
[Xperia Arc General] tamthanh:
You can install any rom is base on stock 2.3.4, such as Arconium, Xperia Mod v8, Aniking. I think maybe 2.3.7 also work but I don't sure :D.

Everything you need to do is root. To do that, your phone must be in firmware .42 or .58

After you download the app "Xperia CWM auto installer", it'll help you install recovery. Then you reboot into recovery and flash the zip file of rom.

Sr my English :D
[Xperia Arc General] kaatisu84:
Just pay to unlock your bootloader. I did. It doesn't cost a lot and it's really worth it. you will get so much more from your phone and you will probably save money because note you will wait longer to upgrade.
[Xperia Arc General] bbogdann:
Is there any Kernel that works for locked bootloader?
[Xperia Arc General] Hayden18:
To flash a kernel u need an unlocked bootloader

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sdrr00:
the one thing im actually jealous of iusers are their accessories, especially the matte screenprotectors for the iphone/pad. the colors are much more vibrant and the screen is insanely smooth. playing games like fruit ninja with it is alot more fun since the feel of the screen is much smoother. is there anything like this for the gnex? ill update the post with a link to the iphone one if i find it. thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] al2x:
By matte do you mean anti-glare?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sdrr00:
yes, anti-glare
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daewond3r:
I have the BasalGuardz anti-glare protector on mine. I love the feel of it, but it does muddy the quality of the screen.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sdrr00:
how does that one make the screen feel? the one im looking for has a silky feel to it and your fingers just slide smoothly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jasonsplace:
It's a very silky feel. It gives a little bit of a rainbow effect in white areas but I don't mind it. The feel of the protector is the only reason that I use it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] android01:
I ordered a 10 pack of anti glare sp's from a seller named dcmugen88 on ebay for about 8 dollars. Been using his for years across a few different androids. Clarity is great , or what you would expect from a well built matte . Ive seen some poor ones and can say these are the best ive used anywhere at totally reasonable prices.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] user_error:
If you cannot find one exactly like the iphone has for the GN, you could always get one for the iPad and cut it down to size. You could make a few of them out of one for the iPad even. Might be able to pawn off the extra on someone else here on xda or use it on other devices.

[HTC EVO 3D] wha2do:
First post, and don't think this is a noob question (have done plenty of reading, searching, and testing!).

I unlocked my EVO 3d using Revolutionary's method but didn't get the option to install a recovery image (or the rebooting several times). I manually flashed TWRP v1.1.1 (via HBOOT) and then Superuser v3.07. I'm unlocked S-OFF (v1.40.0000) and am fully rooted as far as I can tell - able to run Titanium Backup, BusyBox, Superuser, etc.

I created a nandroid using TWRP backup and to be safe, wanted to flash CWM and create another nandroid. Maybe overly careful but I figure better safe than sorry!

I've placed the fastboot, adb, and related files on my laptop and I'm able to run fastboot (in Fastboot USB mode) to see my device. Problem is when I try to run "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-shooter.img" I get the FAILED: <remote: not allowed> error. I've tested everything I can think of, but nothing works (renaming image file, adding the directory to %PATH%, etc). And yes, the image file is in the same directory as the fastboot files!

One post I came across mentioned it could be related to my "issue" with Revolutionary not completing fully (no error, just didn't offer the download and ended). I'm still at HBOOT 1.40.0000 and if it had completed, I would be at 1.40.1000 right? Also I don't have the Revolutionary banner on the HBOOT screen. The post suggested re-running Revolutionary until it completed successfully. Along the lines of not having the updated HBOOT with permissions preventing my flash from working? An answer to another post implied the Revolutionary banner missing was only cosmetic and there are no "side effects", but having tried everything I think that wasn't 100% accurate.

I got CWM installed by creating a PG86IMG.zip file containing the CWM image and android-info.txt file, placed on the sdcard, and installed via HBOOT. I should be able to use this route if I run into problems in the future, but did wonder about the fastboot error. Interestingly, found limited posts using this method (on another site, it was described in a guide but no mention of the android-info.txt file). Without it, this doesn't appear to work...

Sorry for the long post - but tried to include as much info as possible!
[HTC EVO 3D] wha2do:
Hoping someone has an answer or a recommendation on my thought of going back to stock and re-rooting (see further below).

As added info that might be related to my flashboot issue, before unlocking, flashing TWRP, and becoming fully rooted I did run a temp root script (using the zergrush exploit). I did this in order to run Titanium Backup and MyBackup before going any further. Rebooting was supposed to clear out all traces of the temp root.

I'm wondering if by having Superuser installed during temp root left something behind, though it was uninstalled after. Can't swear it was installed prior to rooting, but believe it was. Also reran an uninstall/reinstall of Superuser afterwards just in case it was still in place during the unlock/rooting. Just thinking if traces with different or incorrect permissions remained behind, might cause this. Yes grasping at straws, but...

At this point, while not a major issue with everything else working fine I'm considering starting back to Stock unrooted (not sure if need to lock too?). If I do run an RUU back to my original version (1.13.651.7), sync my contacts, import my SMS msgs, and re-install and configure my apps will I truly be back to where I started? That way I can be assured any and all traces of the temp root/Superuser are gone and do a "clean" root again. And should I go the step further and lock my phone and rerun Revolutionary again to see if it completes normally by downloading CWM and showing Revolutionary on the bootloader screen?

Or should I be happy with it working at 99% (and use the P86IMG.zip update method when necessary), and not "tempt fate" in creating an unrecoverable problem? Partially like the idea of starting fresh again and plus get to test running RUU, re-rooting, etc. Back of my mind can see hitting unresolvable issues and saying "I should have just stayed where I was at..." :rolleyes:.

Suggestions and or thoughts greatly appreciated!

How can I edit the sleep animation?

I have the framework-res.apk

(My problem is that I am on MeanROM 3.3 and the animation is laggy. I want to make it faster or replace it. I want it to be a proper and clean animation of an old crt tv kinda thing.)
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Try downloading spareparts plus and switch animations to fast and switch transitions to fast that might be a temp fix until you get the answer your looking for.

I know it's in the framework-res.apk, If that helps.

(Yeah, i'm installing anthrax now)

Whoa there. I just looked at it. Dang! :)

What kernels can I on top of it?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kjp1231:
All,

I am open to suggestions on what to do with my prime. Some background:

I bought it because I wanted an Android table that I didn't have to hack to make work and that I didn't have to keep plugged in all the time. I had a Viewsonic Gtablet and that was such a turd I was totally disgusted with having to support it anytime I wanted to use it. I just wanted it to work, but as I am an Engineer by trade I liked the flexiblity that came with an Android tablet vs an iPad.

I was one of the early ones to get the prime, and as such I thoroughly tested everything, screen bleed, dead pixels, battery, bluetooth, wireless, GPS, the whole 9 yards. Then I got the patch that came out around New Years Day and never got GPS back. I called support and they wanted me to send it in for at least 7 days. I found that to be ridiculous and decided to live with it. I got hopeful that as other people got theirs working with newer patches mine would too.

I just got the new patch the other day, still no GPS and as I was trying to use my tablet tonight, it was slower than dirt. I run a speed test and I get 1.5Mbps down, and I pull out my phone and run a speed test over wireless (802.11, not 4G) and I get 15Mbps down. Ran the same tests a few times with consistent results.

I just want a tablet that works and everything works as it should. I don't want an Apple product as I take long flights and like to be able to watch mkvs as well as a couple of other things Apple doesn't do easily. I really thought my Prime would be the solution for me.

So your thoughts on my options:

Return it to ASUS for service, how likely am I to be satisified with those results?

I see that there is a potential fix for GPS, is there one for WIFI? I don't want to hack it to get my stuff to work, but it is an option.

Sell it and buy an Apple Product.

My wife has an iPad and anytime I have issues with my Prime, I pick hers up and it just rocks and rolls. I really like Android and the features it offers over an iOS device, not to mention I really HATE iTunes.

Thanks in advance,

Kevin
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ill1:
I understand about itunes, it drove my away from apple also. But it seems as if the Prime really isn't the tablet for you. I don't know if its just hardware or bad luck, either way I sorry to hear your having problems.

I don't think anyone can make the decision as to what you should do, however it seems as if you have made up your mind already. If you think ipad is a better solution then that might be the better pad for you. Good luck.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
unlock it, throw a custom rom on it. worries will be over ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beekay201:
IMO, try to return it for a device with C20 or above on the serial number.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
Check and see if you can get an exchange, or refund. Refund is probably the better idea over exchange.

For GPS.. if the feature is important to you, Transformer Prime simply isn't the right tablet for you. Look for other alternatives .....

As for WIFI:

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5688/apple-ipad-2012-review/18

It could just be Anandtech's Prime (however, mine is similar to Annandtech.. slightly better or worse on each given day)... but either way, you will be taking a chance if you wish to re-purchase Transformer Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rorytmeadows:
Why is GPS so important? If you really have this device mounted in your car, you should be shot. A 10 inch screen has no place in your car. Look at the road, for christ. Buy a decent smartphone that has GPS. There's really no reason for a tablet to have GPS anymore, with the Wifi system.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] okgavin:
here is my suggestion~

Prime isn't perfect, nor the new ipad is and its hard for every user to expect its do all the things it supposed to do (I know its on the spec and we all want it working fine... but u know ipad wasn't perfect too, though it came with a extra egg-cooking function which is not on the spec list:p) I guess in other few patches, Prime will finally work the way u want it be, but u know, getting other tablet may disappoint u in other ways as well. chances are always there~

so if u really want GPS then refund it~

if u can bear the difference of 1.5 mbps and 15 mbps, then it worth the wait ~
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] reNeglect:
Well if you can live a few months without a tablet, return it and wait for the infinity... It should resolve most of the issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ill1:
Amen!!, This should be stickied and placed in bold. Anybody who buys a wifi device (like the Prime) that would have to be tethered to another device with a cell radio (like a cell phone) to be used properly, but complains that the GPS won't work, needs to rethink the purpose for a wifi tablet.

GPS on a tablet is a gimmick feature at best and I don't blame Asus for removing it from spec. It certainly isn't worth the headache it has casued.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] foxmeister:
Part of the problem with the Prime forum is ill-informed posts like this one, and the post that prompted it. Note, I'm not singling out the individual posters here as this seems to be a very common sentiment on the Prime forum these days, but just using these posts as an example.

There are many reasons why someone might want GPS on their WiFi only tablet beyond navigation, and even if you did want to use it for navigation in a vehicle, there is absolutely *no* requirement for it to be tethered if you have offline maps.

There are plenty of apps out there that rely on GPS for things like marine navigation, hiking, geo-tagging photos etc that don't need data access, but require having working GPS. Something like the Prime with its IPS+ screen is ideal for those sorts of uses, *if* the GPS worked correctly. Saying that it is a "gimmick feature", or doesn't matter because the WiFi iPad doesn't have it, is patently absurd.

Ok, so Asus have stopped advertising the Prime as having GPS, but that doesn't help those who purchase the Prime beforehand, or those like the OP who had functioning GPS which was nerfed by an update.

It's incredibly short-sighted to just assume that because *you* don't have a use for GPS on a WiFi tablet, no one else does.

Can we please stop with attacking people who just want their tablets to work as they expected?

Regards,

Dave
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kjp1231:
Thank you Dave, couldn't have said it better myself.

I didn't buy the tablet so that I could mount it on my dashboard and drive around with it. My previous tablet didn't have GPS, the Apple products do as does the original Transformer. When I pre-ordered mine GPS was listed as a feature and I expected it to work right. It did right out of the box until the first patch came, Asus doesn't recognize it as a hardware problem. GPS is not just for directions, there are quite a bit of applications out there that use Location Based Services and when you aren't connected to Wi-Fi, it would be nice that the GPS actually worked as GPS is a better at Location Based Services than Wi-Fi is.

I also bought a product that supports Wi-FI, accepting that 1.5Mbps down is not really an option.

I just want a product that works everytime I pick it up. The Gtablet was not that product as the ROMS were always in development, and there was always one feature or another not working. That is why when I bout the Prime I wanted a product that just worked.

Kevin
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kjp1231:
Thank you ill,

I haven't made up my mind yet, I really really do not want an Apple product. I really want a functioning Android product. I was more posting to see what suggestions people had to get mine to be fully functioning as the product that was advertised and I bought.
