Thank you so much for the info. Never knew how the firmware zips were edited...lol guess it makes sense now. N thanks for not flaming me haha because as stated it was posted before. Might not have been so lucky n the 3vo section, gets rough over there some times. I did attempt to find answers...more of not my phone, limited time to tinker, than beig lazy. Thanks agn!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
No problem mate - flaming you gets nobody anywhere, and you saying you learned something turns you into a roving answer to what you learned should you come across a thread where the knowledge would help.

If you see a chance to spread what you learned here to educate others, mission accomplished.

Given that you are that dude, doesn't have the phone himself and is trying to do someone else a favor, you should be that last type of person being flamed...

(...but unfortunately that position tends to be the first one flamed based on the regulars in a board. General human failing, and happens everywhere online or off...)

You're more likely to help someone in the same position elsewhere, because you were that guy out of his home base and not sure what is what, but definitely not trying to brick his friends/brothers/etc... phone.

Better to ask a question and get a definitive "this is how that bricks the phone, so don't do this" which is much better then a "sorry man, I don't know what happened, you have insurance right?"

[Droid X General] KnappyRoot:
I am eligible to upgrade my X but since I just rooted it (running Gummy ICS coming from .621), it feels like a new phone. I have been thinking of getting the Galaxy Nexus as my next device. Should I wait to see what's coming out later this year? Will the Nexus price come down this summer?
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
If your content with your current device, I recommend waiting.

I think there might be some fairly good phones coming out this summer.
[Droid X General] mikecico:
I'm in the same boat, albeit running Liberty v3. What's the general feeling on the GNex? Seems buggy from what I've read, but the idea of not having to wait 6 months for updates to push out over carriers is appealing.
[Droid X General] vladimirhtg:
ive got a gnex and LOVE it (no bugs here) but id definitely recommend waiting. this is approximately the worst time ever to buy a new phone...
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
I know right. I'm hoping that the Droid "Fighter" will release with an unlockable bootloader. Or maybe, some miracle, Verizon will the Galaxy S 3.

Although what I am really hoping for is for the Galaxy Note to come to Verizon as the Galaxy Journal, as it was rumored to a few months ago.

Verizon never gets any phone love.

I have always wondered if the GPS speedo apps give an accurate speed. Does this vary between apps, locations, Android product etc?

Is there an app with a widget that can display the vehicle speed on the top info bar so I can have another app open, lke maps. So far I have tried 2 but they are full screen.
[Android Apps and Games] Vip3R85:
i used speedo and was satisfied. i compared with iGO and where the same result in speed
[Android Apps and Games] dogsey:
I use Ulysses Speedo and it works very well, can either run full screen or just display the speed in the task bar. Send accurate to me as well.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] fathyazhary:
i want to buy a one of the two and know all the feature of the 2 ,,

adv of i9003 :: stylish ,, slcd ,, 4inch

adv of xperia pro :: ics ,, Qwertkeyboard

any other feature isn't important for me

help me to choose the best ??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sherbibv:
Well I would personally chose SE Pro because it has better GPU Adeno 205>VR SGX530 ,512 Ram vs 487 Ram on the SL and also ICS for Pro.

But on the other hand,the internal memory of Sl is 4Gb or 8Gb(depending on the model you buy) vs 320 mb on the Xperia Pro.

Sl has the advantage of a bigger battery 1650mAh vs 1500mAh on the SE Pro.

When it comes to Camera,SE Pro has a 8 Mp and flash,beating SL.

I would recommend you saving some euros and buying a Galaxy S+ ,which beast both the SE Pro and SL at everything. Above all the Galaxy s+ has Super Amoled.

ROM => the phones's Operating System

Flash => the method name, how install the OS on your phone

Kernel => the "code" between the hardware and the OS
[General Questions and Answers] shyamjptpm:
Rooting your phone means opening access to your system.

ROM is the OS by which phone is working..it contain didn't features as Android version

Flashing is installing your rom or kernal to your phone

Kernal is same as driver software in pc

For installing custom kernal or ROM you need to root, unlock your boot loader, flashing your kernal/ROM:beer:

How i run this 2.3.4 Apps (i believe no one of this has a icon to launch them):

ScreenCapture.apk: i read is something with the power button but i dunno how?

VoiceDialer.apk: no idea

VoiceSearch.apk: no idea
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Random.Guy:
I think that for Screencapture you need to hold the ON/OFF button and then press Take screenshot.

As for the other two try holding the Search button.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0mega007:
Anyone knows for sure all 3 or some of them?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captain67:
It is as Random.Guy said.

Those APK files are for system functions.

The voice command ones are activated when holding the search button. The screen capture is for taking a screenshot when holding the power button.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Theonew:
Yes, your warranty is voided. You could downgrade to hc and re-lock your bootloader to get your device back to stock (so you can get your warranty back).
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] YOUNGTWAN:
how do i downgrade and relock the bootloader

??
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ZeroNull:
Restore HC firmware

1. Reflash to stock A100 ICS firmware. It will restore stock bootloader and recovery. And allow to flash the HC firmware.

2. Reflash to stock A100 HC firmware.

Thank you very much!!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amulbaby:
Nice bro !!

Rem. to wipe user data when changing ROMS ...as a thumb rule..else you might get a BOOTLOOP issue...

and if u are worried about losing your apps or data...do a NANDROID BACKUP or use Titanium backup ...

after flashing new ROM, u can use it to recover your lost data or apps..

But Nandroid backup won't work if u change from stock ROM to custom ROM...

But I suggest you to have a Nandroid backup of your stock ROM in case you feel like switching back n forth...

Cheers!!!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I do not believe the yakjuux 4.0.4 is a final version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ZafarHSayed:
I guess you're right since only 1 person reported getting it? Oh well, what should I do? Can I use the GN Toolkit to flash the yakju 4.0.4, and do these issues exist there?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
As long as you do not suffer the data drops that some GSM users are seeing ( I am not, on LTE), then it should be better on battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
From what we have seen so far, there is no benefit whatsoever to being on any build other than yakju (for maguro devices). Back up as much of your data that you can off of your device and follow the steps here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anonymou38:
Same problems

I'm having the same issue except I am unlocked and rooted. Losing about 10-15% battery life every hour since the update. On yakjuux. Guess I'll go ahead and put on the "official Google" yakju.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OpusX11:
I'm on 4.0.4 yakju and have noticed a significant increase in battery life. I think both of you should follow efrant's suggestion (backup as much as you can and flash to yakju).

I'm also in Canada and did not flash the 4.0.4 radio (optional in efrant's awesome post), and have no complaints so far for radio/signal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ZafarHSayed:
Thanks everyone for the replies. Efrant I followed your instructions, everything seems better now :) 4.0.4 yakjuux with unlocked bootloader, guess I'm still unrooted but I can use the toolkit to root right? Or is there some other method? Like the one used to root without unlocking the bootloader but just to do it normally now.. can't really explain it but I'm sure someone will understand what I'm talking about lol

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maurogg84:
Just wanted to read some opinions on what are the best ROMS and kernel for the galaxy nexus LTE, I come from the Droid charge, I know a little about imoseyon and gummy team, but the rest are unknown to me. I always read cm9 roms are great, but there are a couple to choose from. Thanks in advanced!

Also, I use my Droid charge a lot for tethering and school so I need a mix of performance and battery life for the galaxy nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mr mystery:
AOKP is the team that's killing it right now IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ankushkatari:
Couple it with Franco's kernel.. battery life is just amazing.

Check the Dev section and see what suits ur taste ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maurogg84:
So is aokp better than CM9? Also there are different CM9, like I officials, unofficial and kangs, which ones do you think is better?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aerocaptain:
AOKP is the mod king right now. Pure CM-9 is close to stock, super fast and super clean. Just 2 different experiences. As a new Nexus user I'd recommend you hold off flashing custom roms for a few weeks just to experience stock ICS. It'll make you appreciate the different roms more by giving you the ability to contrast speed as well as modded features. Kernel wise, can't go wrong with Franco's or imoseyon.

My experiences:

AOKP-lots and lots of mods. A bit slower than stock, and good but not great on battery life.

CM-9-Very close to stock but faster. Better on battery life given the very clean code and lack of modded features.

Sent from CDMA GNexus w/CM-9 & franco.kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pewpewbangbang:
CM9 doesn't have the same level of customization as AOKP.

Idk how AOKP battery life is honestly, it doesn't seem that amazing from some screenshots I've seen.

I'm running liquidsmooth with Franco kernel and am getting amazing battery life.

Right now at 7 hours and 30 minutes on battery, with 1 hour 27 min of display time and listened to over 30 minutes of Music thru Google Play Music. Still have 74% battery left.

A few days ago, I got 3 hours and 20-ish minutes display time on over 11 hours on battery with 40% left of battery.

In a full day of usage I can get over 6 hours display time with heavier usage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maurogg84:
Thanks that was the kind of response I was looking for. I really like lean roms because I can add whatever is missing later. I see you are using CM9, are using the official or the Kang?

That's some incredible battery life, I should take a look at your ROM/kernel combination. Since I tether a lot I had to buy the big 3800 batteries, I know it might look ugly but I hate swapping barrettes.

Since I've never tried ICS I'm going to taste it for a couple of days, then I'll try a couple of roms starting with cm9 then I'll try liquid smooth.

kindly please direct your query to Arky's thread and the Moonrom thread with regards to flashing the respective roms... lets help make the DEV section clean.... Thanks....

To answer your question : as per instructions on those threads... make sure you flashed CWM recovery or FeaMod recovery (1.2 or 1.4) before you can flash any CWM based rom. I think moonrom v.4 uses the new KQB rom so you have to flash it first via odin then install CWM / FeaMod recovery to flash the said rom...

Boot into your rom and open up a file explorer or file manger and remove the zip or put the zip into a folder.
