Hi guys, I'm new, so I want to ask you: how can I flash a FLEXREAPER R14 ROM by civato, if I have rooted 3.2.1 (got it to fix the accelerometer problem) without flashing the OTA acer`s update, which is going to break my sensor? Sry for this question, coz idk where to post this...
[Acer Iconia A500] CyaN1de:
If you are rooted and have cwm, then just download the rom to your sd card and flash through cwm.

Install from zip > zip from sdcard > flexreaper.zip (something like that, can't recall exact wording in recovery)

Yes, SGS3 battery is bigger, but the screen is bigger two, 4 cores of CPU and a more power hungry GPU, then Smart Stay eye tracking will be using front camera, that should drain battery as well...

So bigger battery could serve the extra changes from SGS2 and SGS3 would probably stay out of wires or induction charging for the same time as SGS2?

What do you say?

MicroSIM - does it use less power than SIM?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
Its actually kinda useless when it comes to discussion like this as no one has the phone in their hands yet. Filling the pages with speculation and assumption will simply set a good/bad reputation to the mobile itself.

Id like to see this thread come alive after the release :)

i was getting 30-40 hours out of my gs2 running stock at&t. i would think the gs3 would do the same even with the added goodness. but even with the induction charging... i would imagine we will still need an extra battery or wired charger plugged in. there will always be times when the battery gets low and have to be charged while using it.

Don't think the "camera tracking" will take up much power either, they could probably just make due with a snapshot every 5 minutes(or when it would normally go into standby) or so and do facial recognition.

I was hoping for a battery close to the RAZR MAXX

Now that the battery is 2100, then i'm hoping that users will be able to control all new features. By that i mean turn them on and off. I really don't care for the many new features that Samsung has come up with. If it was possible I would replace Samsung's modified Android version with a Out of the box version like on Galaxy Nexus. Personally i was hoping that Motorola soon would come out with a new Quad Core phone with their 3300 battery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vasp3690:
Currently the one S with a 2x battery ap holds a decent amount battery battery with smart use of connection and other features by default, so I would have thought that it would work nicely on the bigger sg3. However I'm planning to have a 2nd battery handy and not worry about running out at any point.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barondebxl:
Samsung does a pretty good job at power management, I think battery life will be good especially with that 2100 Mah battery and the fact that the SoC is based on 32nm so less power used. We should be able to get a full day pretty easily.

I have VERY BAD fealings: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DfoKoDYD7c&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Look at that review: Battery life goes from 92% to 84%...

That means quite nothing (We don't know what they do in cutted frames)... but in my mind I am quite sure that battery life will be even shorter than my LG Optimus 2x (16h with push notific and so on..)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FISKER_Q:
It's over a period of 30 minutes, which seems to suggest an approximate battery lifetime of around 5-6 hours with the display on.

This is not really a bad thing but simply due to powering such a large display, but really most phones seem to get around 5-7 hours these days.

The Galaxy Nexus have the same "problem", but as I recall the Nexus also had some of the best idle/no display battery lifetime i.e. Only taxing antennas and processors.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5310/samsung-galaxy-nexus-ice-cream-sandwich-review/14

See the battery lifetime for the gsm version during talk or hotspot sharing the Nexus easily have some of the best performance there.

A review from a company is still not everyday use by the average person

Seriously dude your getting me wrong I'm not saying the s3 doesn't have better battery life since I have the hox and in my daily use a.k.a real use the hox does not come close to the 37h it claims real use gave me 12 hours, light use 20h at the most, heavy use 6-7h so no matter how many reviews there is until I get it in my hands and use it as I would on a daily basis there is no way it can be compared
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markamps:
According to the explanation of GSMArena. Their endurance rating on smartphone batteries only suggests that if you will use your phone for 1hr of 3G call, 1hr of video playback and 1hr of web surfing per day, it will last by that much duration. So if you will use your OneX for 1hr of 3G talk, web surfing and video playback a day, you will need to recharge it again after 37 hours. In other words, for OneX to last 37 hours, you can only use it for a total of 3 hours a day, and the next 21 hours at standby mode. :)

PS.

I accidentally clicked the thanks button.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leith51:
So like I said not a real daily user stats so will give false impression to how well the battery will run, and since its more of a guess by only doing 1hr tests. Plus not all hoxs or the same I've had 7 the worst one was dying in 5-6 hours light use screen on time 1 hour which puts the 3 hours use and 37 hours out the window

Hi all

I am stuck on an older cm9 nightly from March and desperately want to flash the newer cm9 released a couple of days ago

My problem is that I cant boot into recovery, rom manager doesnt work and the various other apps that I have found people recommending dont work either.

Could some kind soul tell me how to get rom manager back to working order so I can reboot to recovery so I can install the latest nightly? Or suggest another/better way to go?

Thanks in advance!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Try turning off your Tf, and holding the Volume-Down key Before and While you hold the power key to turn it back on. This should boot to your cwm recovery if you have one, if it gives you nothing or the stock recovery download the Recovery Installer.apk in the development section and (You MUST have root, I assume yes on cm9) open it and flash 3.2.0.1 cwm recovery. Once that's done you can flash the newest nightly. Keep in mind that 3.2.0.1 ONLY reads from External SD card (MicroSD) so be sure to get one or NVflash a newer recovery with internal.

Also a tip: Rom manager has had a host of problems for the Transformer, and while it's really good for some supported phones, it's not so good for the tf (just look around Q+A and the dev you see all sorts of ROM manager related problems)

Good luck

After you have install recovery do the manual button method as posted above by Thing O Doom

or use this app

Excellent, thanks so much for the help all, ended up getting team rogue's recovery....I had tried Gnufabio's one before and it hadnt worked when I installed and used the power & Vol down button(as the recovery image would not boot ever and froze after the first nightly I had installed)

Just a word of warning on the 4ext boot to recovery option, and this could just be me with Rom manager on previously when I tried to fix myself, when I installed 4ext it would freeze on boot totally...only way I got it to work was cold booting linux so just so you know it does seem to have its problems too

But I am now downloading the latest nightly to flash

I finally installed an ICS rom and I realized that the Wired magazine app is not working properly with sign in button disabled that allows you to access your subscription. I had to return back to stock rom just for this app.

The app seems to be only compatible with Kindle Fire stock rom, but there are reports of successfully running it on CM9 roms on other devices. Would there be a way to fool this app telling that it's running on a compatible device?

So, do you know a solution for this or would a developer be willing to investigate this issue?

UPDATE: I edited the hosts (system/etc/hosts) file and removed all entries that have "adobe" in them and it works fine now. There are 5 or 6 of them. I could add them back in until it breaks again and see which ones are necessary to remove to get this to work, but I have to get back to my "real" work :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
Hey everyone. Thought I'd give this a shot and created these boot animations of a stylized Aurora Borealis.

It's meant for dzo's Aurora ICS ROM, hence why it says Aurora in the middle on some, but you can really use it anywhere you like it (as long as your screen is 480x800 pixels). I've licensed it as CC-BY-NC license, so use as much as you like.

Installation: Rename the file you downloaded to bootanimation.zip and use a root file explorer to move it to /system/media.

Previews for v1, v2, v3 and v4.

Updates

10. May 2012: I've managed to make the animation both smoother and chop off a whole second. I updated versions v2, v3 and v4 (complain if you'd like me to update it as well). They're the same speed, but more fluid and the files are a bit smaller.

Hello riDDimann,

Very nice bootanimation, I currently use v2. Well done and thanks:)

Maybe you could consider making one with a starry background (similar to kostasvr's bootanimation)?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
@zephyr1988: Possibly. I kept the background simple for space reasons, but I've since found out how to lower resolution and it shows (v2 is smaller even though it has a much more complex animation). So there's some budget left ;)

Edit: It took me some time (to realize that the horrible banding was introduced by PNG-optimizers), but I've made two more versions. Both without text and a starry background for v4.

I don't really intend to make more versions. that would just clutter up the thread. But you can always unzip the archive and crop the images to fit.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nono240:
Hi there!

I'm a owner of a TF101 (B50) for month now, and recently I had the need to switch between multiple version of Android (as I'm an Android dev) : back and forth to/from Honeycomb from/to ICS for example, multiple time a day!

So, as I'm used to do with all my "Google's Experience" devices (Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus), I installed CWM on my TF101 to be able to generate nandroid. So far, so good.

I then downgraded my tablet to stock 3.2 using nvflash, installed CWM, and did a nandroid. Great, I now have an Honeycomb backup. Of course, at this point, I'm no more able to upgrade using OTA, so here's my first question :

1- Once CWM installed, how do you upgrade to the latest build ? Asus blobs are not compatible with CWM! :confused:

Then, since I needed an ICS nandroid, I reverted to stock 3.2 (using NVFLASH), and I let the OTA did the job for me - before installing CWM. Ok, now, I have both Honeycomb and ICS as backup : let's test that.

I rebooted in recovery, and then restored my 3.2 nandroid (from ICS, remember?). All I had once the job was done, was the android logo with an exclamation mark :rolleyes:

After some Googling, I understood why : unlike my Google's devices, on the TF101, it seems CWM can't restore the boot partition. So, the bootloader used was the one for ICS, and the tablet failed to boot.... Here's my 2nd question :

2- Am I right? What guys are you suggesting to be able to switch easily between different nandroid versions ? Should I nvflash the boot partition by hand? If so, where to find a documentation on NVFLASH ? (I'm regretting fastboot :( )

Thanks for reading.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
You can repackage the blobs so that they can be flashed from cwm. I think one roach's 3201 recovery is packaged this way, so you can take it apart to see how it all works. Essentially blobs are flashed through the staging partition. There is a blob tools thread in the dev section that has all the details.

If you want to go back and forth between roms, I think that nvflash will be your best bet. Rayman and bubble bee have the most info. Check out therenwebsite. It's something like androidroot.mobi? There is also a full backup and restore thread in the dev section that explains a lot of the details of nvflash.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nono240:
I read, somewhere, that we can flash stock Asus firmwares using CWM ('update zip') by first extracting the initial zip (which contains another zip containing the blob). Is it true?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
yes but you will loose root and cwm recovery. It's the easy unroot method.
