1st, I can't get NBA Jams to install, I found a person who said to change the prop build to get it to install. Fine, but I have no idea what to change it to?

2nd, I saw a rom that had the Sense 4.0 task manager where you scroll right/left and swipe up to close an app. I can't remember which rom it was, and I can't find it. I'm running Team Obsession RC1, is there any way I could flash this?

3rd, I'm not a fan of the Samsung contacts app, I have Contapps from the Play store, and I like it but it's still not exactly what I'm after. Outside of apps on the Play store, could I flash a contacts from a different rom? I really like the stock ICS one I saw on my friends pohone. I've heard I could flash the CM9 people app, but my attempts to do this haven't worked. My phone's rooted and I'm running the latest CWM.

Hi Lucifer, i just loaded your raimbow rom on my 710 (loving it). At the begining it says you removed the manufacturer apps, I was wondering if the network setup app was there. I need that app because I switch sims on my phone and need it. I was wondering if you could make a rom with it on or if I could get the xap file and side load it.

Thanks in advance for your response

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frigidazzi:
If I did it over from what I know I would not buy it. I would just buy another real battery :(. I do like the convince of the case though. But battery life just not worth it. I use it as a backup for work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengsuan:
I just bought one, knowing that it can be quite crappy but for $16, it does no harm :)

I haven't used it extensively yet but noticed that the battery case can get warm when turned on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengsuan:
Bad idea. The battery case's USB port just fell off yesterday. About 18 days of use, that's almost $1 for a day of usage.

Disappointed =(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengsuan:
A picture to illustrate the problem:

A voice inside me says, rip it:

There is only 1700mAh in the battery, not 2200mAh as advertised. To consider the voltage conversion losses from 3.7V to 5V, I estimate the usable capacity is about 1300-1400mAh which charges only up to 70% Galaxy Nexus's stock battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
Is it possible to remove the old battery and then put an OEM one?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SNNTEC:
Wow... such a fraud!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengsuan:
The seller agreed to give partial refund of 60% because of the broken USB port. He offered to replace it initially but for me to return it, shipping costs isn't worth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coldmantis:
Bought one on ebay, took over 45 days to come. The Seller offered to refund $2 and wait. I told him no and just give refund, he made me wait 2 more days (processing time BS). I finally got item and told him not to refund me, he refunds me anyways... then ask for a refund of the refund lol. had it for 2 weeks and the usb fell off... and it never charged my battery more then 40%. Took it apart and it's also a 1700mah battery instead of a 2200mah as advertised.. The Selling wanted me to send him $10 for the trouble WTF?, So I took all the picture to proves it's a cheaply made product and hes committing fraud by advertising it as a 2200mah instead of a 1700mah, told him I will report to ebay if he doesn't stop bothering me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leungclj:
gonna get myself one of these
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengsuan:
Lol, have you looked at the reviews above your post?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oceansaber:
+1, it's pretty bad for what you pay for. You might as well either a) buy a second battery to swap in and out, or b) buy the extended battery, which comfortably gets me through the day. Either that, or you could get one of those 3800+ mAh extended batteries which will most definitely save you from an accidental battery outtage at the expense of turning your GNexus into an ugly brick that you can barely stick into your pockets.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidman101:
Hey there guys. Issue is I rooted and installed AOKP on my kindle fire. I installed it (but not the gapps) and realized I had not wiped /data/ and /cache/, so I did through CWMR. It froze. After about 10 minutes, I decided to risk it and forced it to shut down by holding the power button. I can get it to boot into AOKP, but it runs really slowly for about 5 seconds then stops altogether. I tried to wipe /data/ and /cache/ in CWMR again, but, as soon as I booted into it, it gave me all these "cannot find /cache/recovery/command" and the like messages (about 5) before showing me options. When I tried wiping /data/ and /cache/ it said that it could not mount /data/ or /cache/. I then decided to try and restore my backup of stock, but when I did it said it could not mount /sdcard/. I then replaced CWMR with TWRP via fastboot (which does work), but TWRP won't get past the splashscreen. ADB does not work in either the Rom nor in TWRP, but I can issue fastboot commands. I have tried the Firekit LiveUSB repair kit as well as manually deleting userdata, cache, and media through fastboot. I have deleted and replaced recovery via fastboot as well as replacing boot with hashcode's boot.img from his latest kernel.

None of these seem to have done the least thing (except replacing CWMR with TWRP which changed the recovery to TWRP but still doesn't let anything work). I'm afraid to ask it, but have I BRICKED an impossible-to-brick tablet?

PS: My bootloader is FFF V1.2.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
That is because you used cwmr to flash it and no twrp get back into recovery and restore your backup and replace cwmr with twrp cwmr has been pulled

Hello,

my name is Udi and I have a new Transformer Prime. I wanted to ask how do you maximize the battery life? from all aspects - is overcharging right? is full discharging right? etc.

thanks!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
The single biggest improvement will come from going into the advanced WiFi settings and setting WiFi to turn off when the screen is off.

Also you should run using balanced or power saver performance modes unless you plan on running an intensive app like a game.

Aside from that normal things like turning down screen brightness, disabling GPS and setting your accounts to sync every hour (or more) rather than every 15 minutes can do wonders for extending battery life.

Actually yes, I did try an older epst. Doesn't work. I actually just downloaded a sense 3 rom over night (speed under 100 kbps) and crossed my fingers it didn't time out. Flashed that, installed my older epst app, installed my prly, and went back to ics... Still curious about an easier way but hey I got it going. Thanks for the suggestions though.

I use QPST, just hook up phone and push prl (after you setup QPST). but that seems to be the easiest way for me...

Don't you need a pc for that? That's what I would have tried if I had access. But thanks.

Been looking for solution myself on ICS, but as you found out EPST does not work. Since I don't always have access to a PC that has all of the QPST stuff installed I just load up a back up of a GB ROM and change it, then go back to my ICS ROM.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] nxd:
I tried a number of ROMs over the year or so I've had the device. GenericGinger 2.0 has been the most stable for me during that time.

However, it isn't flawless, and development ceased long ago, so I plan to try CM_alike once it is stable.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
The pure stock KJ2 ROM has served me pretty well. I have heavily debloated it, uninstalled the Touchwiz launcher and all it's widgets, and I Odined the Platypus_Egg kernel onto it, to give it that extra voodoo-lagfix edge(then later flashed nxd's version w/keystroke logging disabled).

Pretty much the only time it reboots is occasionally when opening the Facebook app, and perhaps that is because the app is loading a lot of data and using GPS. I go into the Task Manager app regularly and make sure there is enough available RAM to prevent glitchy behavior.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] orange808:
It's true.

The platypus_egg kernel and a stock (de-bloated) KJ2 rom are very stable. Boring and a step slow, but stable.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
Yeah, you nailed it: it is stable, everything works, and you have all the native stock functions if you want them. but where you sacrifice is in the speed of opening apps and navigating around, etc.

[HTC Sensation] cubskru:
In the U.S some good options are simple mobile, and straight talk. Both will give you "4g" data but at different price points.

Straight Talk is $45 for "unlimited" talk,text, and data. The problem with them is that they are known to completely cut you of and kick you of the network for "excess" data use. Some people report this coming as soon as 1gb of data. Most say 2 gb. If they do kick you of the network it is virtually impossible to get your # back so tread with caution. If you do chose straight talk make sure you order a t-mobile sim.

Simple Mobile offers two plans. $40 for unlimited talk,text, and"3g" data but most people say that this"3g" data is more like 2g data. They also offer "unlimited" talk, text, and "4g" data for $60. Most people say that they trottle you if you cross 2gb of data.

There are other options that run on att's network but you wont be able to get 3g or 4g data with them.

Check out Howard Forums for more info. They are great site for carrier information. I can't post a link because im new here but just google search them.

Hope this helps!!!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] atlgator:
So we all know Sprint's rolling out LTE on 1900 MHZ, or close to it.

I had a Photon last summmer and their awful WiMax service (at around 2400-2500 MHZ). I couldn't get it inside and it had a hard time following me in a moving car.

I know have a corporate device, a Droid 4 on VZW. Their LTE network is immaculate in Atlanta, GA. Inside, outside, you name it. In my home, I get 2-3 bars 3G on Sprint (EVOLTE) and 3-4 bars VZW LTE.

I have a sneaking suspicion when they flip the switch in Atlanta, their LTE coverage will pale in comparison. Here's hopin' I'm wrong.

(And of course, when Sprint gets their 800 MHZ old iDEN frequencies fired up for LTE, our shiny new EVOs won't connect - they lack the radio).

Thoughts welcome.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tourbound129:
I guess I actually had the opposite experience here in Austin, TX.

When I go inside big retail stores (ie, Target, Costco, Sams, etc) my 3G experience was miserable but my WiMax was perfect. Had the same experience at home as well. This was with my OG Evo.

My 3G experience with the EVO LTE has been great. Much better service and faster speeds. Time will tell what LTE brings to the table.

LTE are to be in all areas that sprint is current serving up 3g you will get it :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] indiscriminant:
The 1900 Mhz LTE won't be as penetrating as Verizon's into buildings, but it will be about 25-30% better than WiMax for that.

With regards to WiMax in a car, the protocol for WiMax was not smooth from a transition standpoint going from tower to tower, the different protocols for LTE won't have that same problem.

We will see how it all shakes out, don't know if there is a benefit to being pessimistic though.

Hi there..

as i can read from this review, it seems S3 has the same autofocus issue as S2..in the 1080p camera demo video you can see how terrible the autofocus is.

Someone can confirm that?
[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
i read that the auto focus was one of the best on engadget, yes engadget, the isheep blog. Stop creating stupid threads like this please,

can someone lock this stupid thread by what seems like a sore one x owner?

autofocus during video recording was some of the best we've seen in any smartphone. 1080p is recorded with a data-rate of around 2.2MB/s, which is very healthy indeed, and autoexposure shifts smoothly and sensibly.
[Galaxy S III General] ste1164:
I wouldn't close it, I saw on the verge that the autofocus was a bit crap on the sgs3 when recording 1080p. There is a sample video on the review and you can see the phone trying to autofocus loads.
