The rom devs will know what this is ....

did this for skyrocket devs but works for your ics ports as well.

made this thread over here so i can stop getting pms from this side on howtos...

Remove AM/PM

1. Decompile SystemUI.apk

2. Goto: /systemui.apk /smali/com/android/systemui/statusbar/policy

3. edit Clock.smali

4. the line you want is typically 36 (its the static constructor)

5. change "const/4 v0, 0x0" to "const/4 v0, 0x2"

6. yup thats right, 1 character edit!

7. save and recompile

Color for Clock (if you havnt already)

1. Decompile SystemUI.apk

2. Goto: /res/values/

3. edit styles.xml

4. the style you want is "<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon">"

5. change "<item name="android:textColor">#ff33b5e5</item>" under this style (this is android blue, change at will)

6. save and recompile

enjoy!!

Tried it on stock FD10 ICS4.0.3 build for E4GT.

Didn't work unfortunately.

I found 3 instances of const/4 v0, 0x0 and changing any of them or any combination of 2 of them didn't remove AM/PM from status bar clock.

Any ideas or suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
I also am trying this mod and would like to know what are the lines before or after the mod. Just to make sure I am making the changes to the right one since I also see 3 of them... Thanks in Advance
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] `SBR`:
Use notepad++ and go to line 36 and change the value
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
actually I do not see static constructor but public constructor and lines 34-41 show this

# direct methods
.method public constructor <init>(Landroid/content/Context;)V
.locals 1
.parameter "context"

.prologue
.line 72
const/4 v0, 0x0
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] agat63:
I'm using notepad++.

There is no instance/value on line 36 in ICS file for E4GT.

First instance is on line 39.

Did try it. No dice.

And as mentioned above did try any combination of 3 instances of that value thru the file. No go.

May be ICS for E4GT is different and we should look somewhere else.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] `SBR`:
Hope you're looking into the file in the below path.

SystemUI\smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar\policy\Clock.smali

and search for the below line

sput v0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/Clock;->AM_PM_STYLE:I

above the line

const/4 v0, 0x0

change the 0 to 2 like below, it will be like this .

const/4 v0, 0x2

Save it and decompile the systemui.apk
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
yea been there and its a no go apparently my Clock.smali is dfferent
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] agat63:
I confirm that.

There is no such line in Clock.smali in E4GT ICS SystemUI.apk smali file.

There has been a lot of changes in apk, dex and jar files from GB to ICS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
shhhhhhoooot I am trying to do it on GB but I looked in ICS as well and did not see it. I looked in services.jar and did not see it.. Believe me I know it should be out there somewhere but other than TSM mods I can not seem to find any tutorials on how to just remove am/pm... If anyone knows how to do this on GB or ICS which may be similiar please let me know. Its for the E4GT

Thx

Which Is the best modem for ICS Slim...or which are you using?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Unless if you are getting really bad reception/signal, I would stay with stock.

Most of the ICS roms i've used (i've used just about every single one, except the newer hipster ones) have a good modem built in and it works perfectly for me and apparently alot of other people since no one complains about it.

If it works, leave it at that, it won't improve your battery or anything.

However, if you want a Kernel, check out my signature. It has got the be the BEST kernel to-date for ICS ROMS.
[Vibrant General] Devilisher:
i personally think tht KA7 is de best for all esp wid slim...i am using it n no issues at all...

if wanna hav somthin diff try KA5
[Vibrant General] robbham78:
I am running Slim 4.2 and I just did a test using a signal strength meter app to test a few different modems and the strength I got from each. I placed the phone in the same place, and stepped away for a minute to make sure my body didn't interact with the signal. Below is what I got:

JI5 - 33%

KA5 - 25%

JL5 - 29%

KA7 - 33%

KB5 - 29%

For me, I got the best from JI5 and KA7. I remember reading a year or so ago that everyone can be different so test it on your system to see what works best for you and signal strength. There is probably a more correct way to do this but it was the best I could come up with. Please add if you have another idea.
[Vibrant General] joe98200:
KA7 was definitely the best modem for me on Slim.
[Vibrant General] Sk3tchy:
Currently running Slim 4.2

With Devil3 1.0.3 I find KB5 to work best

Running either the Stock Kernel or Subzero #159 KA7 worked best.

I get fast hard locks everytime with any of the above 3 setups.

Subzero would lock after DS but takes a long time as AGPS updating does not work after DS. So regardless of which Kernel your running, rebooting with the GPS on and locking immediatly when you need to use the GPS is by far quicker. Setting your screen timeout to 2 min or 5 min before rebooting to use the GPS I find helpfull as you need to lock without the screen turning off first which with a 30 second timeout makes difficult (I get easily distracted mind you :D )

Hope that helps!
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Fwiw, here is a chart that shows the data and battery for each modem. Granted it shows Froyo and GB ROMs but can't be too different than ICS. Also I have best with KB5 in Cincinnati. Clearly, YMMV.

:D As per subject, I am curious after rorob7 opened up a thread the 1000hrs uptime without reboot http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1487826

So, here I am opening up a room for people to post their Uptime without any single reboot.

I will start from me.

My best Uptime is around 66hrs to 75hrs. (forgot to take screenshot :P, will added later)

ROM: MIUI GB 2.3.7b stable by BM

Kernel: Franco 1st Nov, BFS

I/O: Noop

Governor: Smartass V2

Usage: Normal moderate (data on, 2G the most, sometimes 3G, whatsapp, sms, phone call, newsfeed, facebook, little games, notes)

Common Reasons for reboot:

- smartkeyboard freeze

- SOD

- (will update it regularly)

So whats yours people?
[Nexus S General] chronophase1:
I had a little over 100 hours but decided to make a backup afterwards. If I wasn't such a crackflasher, I could probably go much longer:D
[Nexus S General] shabgard:
88 hours stock 2.3.7 not rooted and locked bootloader.
[Nexus S General] vetvito:
170 hrs captured. Only reboot is when I switch to my extended battery sometimes.
[Nexus S General] doc_v15:
Thats great man! :D

I will try to make 100 for the next 4 days :D

Keep it up Guys! :D
[Nexus S General] doc_v15:
Wow! Awesome man. I will try 100hrs first :D
[Nexus S General] m.sabra:
my longest was about 70 hours i think,i could last longer but am addicted to flashing :P

if you need stability,try Pixel ROM 1.72 with Matr1x kernel 18.5,and set the governor to Lionheart,with deep idle on. i used these settings for a while with an 1300 to 1460 Mhz OC, and it never rebooted but it was a battery killer.
[Nexus S General] zorak950:
Don't remember. Many hundred hours in any case, if not a thousand.
[Nexus S General] doc_v15:
Somehow, it is hard to keep the phone without rebooting...

I learned that I am using BFS kernel by Franco, and the nature of BFS is for multitasking. And I noticed that when I'm using some apps, and then I wanna use others apps, I pressed the home button and it went to the desktop, everytime I did that, the memory seems to be stable, no lagging.

But, when I'm using some apps, and then I wanna use others apps, instead of pressing home button, when I pressed the back button until the apps closed, somehow its just hard to NOT to reboot for at least 20hrs, it kept lagging.

Anyone noticed this?
[Nexus S General] DarkhShadow:
CFS is multitasking, BFS is for smoother running of foreground app

My longest uptime was about 35 hours, then I changed voltages by mistake xD

Sent from my ice cream powered Nexus S
[Nexus S General] thegtfusion:
Longest uptime: max 15 hours :o

Yeah yeah ima crackflasher :D :D
[Nexus S General] podtalje:
It would also be good to state the usual reason for reboot.

Is the reason instability of the system or just the need to updgrade the new image.

Personnaly for me a stable system should have at least 1000h of uptime and I think there are quite a few ROMs tha can do that.

At the moment I am using AOKP and don't have any problems and my uptime is usually around 500h (to update to new version).
[Nexus S General] shockem:
60hours...

I however have to reboot often due to flashing of mods and stuff. Also I'm addicted to flashing.

For me, I rarely have the needs to reboot the phone. After I upgrade to stock 4.0.4 I have not rebooted my phone. And nothing goes wrong here.

What's more my wife never reboot her Galaxy S i9000. Only sometimes it rebooted by itself. xD

I'm getting my nexus Wednesday from Verizon. I'm on my 5th razr from 2-10-12, and they offered me a replacement device, wanted the maxx but they couldn't do it for some reason, so I'm getting the nexus. So what should I expect? Battery life, roms kernels, just the run down? Thanks for your time, and hopefully this is an upgrade! I mean i paid $200 for this razr, and they're giving me a nexus which is $300.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ker2gsr:
With Franco kernel good battery for a 4g phone ability to unlock boot loader and have freedom priceless roms , there are plenty to try and sample
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FredFS456:
I'm running AOKP Milestone 4 with franco.Kernel Milestone 2... good combo according to a lot of people. Battery life you can expect to last around 3.5 hours screen on time if you have hotplug mod enabled with fraco.Kernel. I would say that the best thing about having a Nexus is the abundant updates from Google as well as the ease of modding the phone and the associated vibrant development community.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jayrod1980:
Word of advice... at the very least get your 2100 extended Verizon battery+ door. If you want to go over 4 hours on screen time get the seidio 3500mah battery with nfc. Its not pretty but you won't notice when you hold the phone. Other than that, put aokp or whatever rom and flash Franco or trinity to get your battery life up over stock. Kernel seems to have much more to do with battery life than rom but aokp seems to have the best mix of customization right now. I love trinity Kernels for battery life and the best stock color enhancement. Nice cool whites without having to mess with anything, but others swear by other kernels as well. Good luck to you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skater95:
Thanks for the options, and opinions guys! And honestly, I'm not going to get an extended life battery, one it makes the phone huge and two, I'm only 16 and can't afford one right now (paid for my razr though) but I'll mes around with the roms if I don't get what I want outta my battery. I'm only getting 4-6 hours outta my razr light use. So hopefully it'll do better, as long as I get 10-12 hours, I'll be more then happy! But it'll take time I'm sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I wouldn't recommend a huge 3500mAh extended. Its ugly and is a bit overkill, considering it seems your expectations are in check. I would recommend just getting the 2100mAh extended. Adds a little life and its not very expensive ($25 I believe).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skater95:
Does this have another battery door or stock one? And if it does have to have a new door, would it be possible to show me pics of the differences in the thickness?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Nexus Project:
Coming from a RAZR to a GNEX is a great move. You'll definitely be happy with the upgrade. The GNEX with the right ROM/Kernel combo is hands down the best device currently on the market. I grabbed the GSM version in Jan. and couldn't be happier. My only gripe is how fast the tier one devices depreciate. But hey that's the game these days. My goto setup is GummyNex ROMS & Franco Kernels. Blazing fast, buttery, silky smooth. Sick quadrant scores & decent battery life. You've made a great move The extended battery add no bulk whatsoever and is a good pickup

Sent from my i9250 [GSM) Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Moonkae:
As far as battery life goes, while running Liquid rom with Franco Milestone 2 kernel I get excellent battery life, even with wifi and 4g. I can easily put over a day on the phone some days when I don't use it that much. But even under heavy usage I can get through the day (standard battery).

The size of the phones screen itself is really nice. I came from an Incredible 2 and I thought 4" was the sweet spot. Let me tell you now though that after a few months using this I wouldnt mind the screen being 4.8" or so. The design, in my opinion, makes it the best looking phone on the market.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
I find that very few apps/widgets that I have offer a 5x1 or more size.

I can only name HD Widgets as one. Which ones d'you have installed on your Note?

Can anyone recommend a good weather/forecast widget with tablet size available?

I find that using ADW Launcher Ex's widget/icon resizing helps but sometimes makes poor resolution or such more noticeable. Unfortunate. Also, resizing doesn't offer more information to be included. So native support is still the most useful!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mrpiggae:

Hi guys.

Im coming from Nexus S.

Im very pleased with the speed of this little beast.But Im a little lost with the roms. Can anybody suggest me a good stable rom with stock ICS.

I'm not a fan of Touchwiz and I like too much the stock one.:p

Any help???:D
[Galaxy S II General] 007Arc:
Hi and welcome! Hope you enjoy your stay here. I would suggest you checkrom v6, unfortunately it's not ics. But it's rock solid and very easy to theme with the kitchen app. Hope that helps you.
[Galaxy S II General] fr3quency:
Γεια σου φιλάρα. :Ρ

What I'd suggest:

1)Root

2)Download latest CM9( http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=galaxys2 πρώτο-πρώτο)

3)Download latest Google Apps( http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip )

4)Reboot into Recovery(simply turn off your phone and hold VOLUME UP+HOME BUTTON+POWER)

5)Wipe everything(factory reset, wipe cache, format system, wipe dalvik cache, wipe battery stats)

6)Install CM9

7)Install Google Apps

8)Factory Reset(AGAIN!)

9)Reboot

And there you have it! The most stable STOCK ICS ROM. :) It's really amazing, you'll understand. ;) For me, it's the best. I don't see any bugs and battery is amazing. =)

Have fun and welcome to the club!

If you want a good stock ics experience I would recommend Wanam's ICS XWLP4.

It has the stock ics ui effects without sacrificing functionality that is lost when flashing cm9 (fm radio, lots of paid apps for free in samsung apps etc).
[Galaxy S II General] crachel:
Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately, we get several "What's the best ROM" threads every day, so we close/delete them.

My suggestion is to find the popular ROMs by Views/posts (sort by Stats) and read each thread to find what best suits you. Then try the ROMs and see what you did or did not like.

Thanks
