Noob question

I've searched all morning, so blame my searching skills if I've not found the right answer to this!

I've already updated via Odin to 4.1.2 - XXLQ4. I'm having problems with Wifi stability (after a few hours of being switched "on" it works only stutteringly and often needs a reboot or switch into airplane mode).

What is the most recent stock JB than I can try moving to? I don't understand the sequencing of the different baseband versions, and also don't know what would happen if I flashed the UK (Vodafone) JB onto my UK (t-mobile) phone.

Thanks!

Matt

USB Host

Hey,

In the system\etc\permissions folder, there is a file named android.hardware.usb.host.xml. In it(near the end), is written "This is the standard feature indicating that the device can communicate with USB devices as the USB host."

What does this mean?? that our device supports USB Host? :confused:

I've also seen senior members talking about OTG working only on kernels that support it.

My Device : Rooted GT-I9070

ROM - 4.1.2 Stock I9070DDULP8

Kernel - CoCore-E-5.0

Recovery - TWRP
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arffrhn:
1. Download any kernel you want. Extract zip for md5. Put md5 in internal SD.

2. Download and install root explorer (ie: ES file manager)

3. Download and install Universal Kernel Flasher by Frapeti.

4. Flash kernel via UKF.

5. Reboot.

Hope this helps.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
I never used folders but since you told, I just tried it... And It doesn't lag for me...

Try going to settings > developer options and set all window transitions and animations to 0.5 or Off.. This will disable all animations...

Your phone will be fast but you will miss all the nice animations though..

Hi,

I got this device yesterday. I've some questions regarding to it...

1) Flashing stock firmware (from sammobiles) via odin will void warranty?

2) pit file remains same for JB and GB?

3) Is partition layouts changed in JB?

4) Do we have separate recovery partition or the recovery is embedded into ramdisk? is it permanent?

5) After upgrading to JB,can i flash any GB ROM via recovery? (i asked 3rd question for this)

6) I've seen that devs are working hard to get CM10 on this device, but they need some sources to fix UI glitches.Which source they require? i mean for which component.

7) How much time does it take for a full charge? Mine is taking too much time for charging.It took almost a hour and a half for 12% - 67%

8) Does this device has bootloader locked? I somewhere read about network locked device.How to check it?

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
Well this is really odd... I do not use any Mods.. just plain Indian firmware with CoCore 6.2... and I never noticed any lags while playing heavy games and other games like Temple Run 2 or Subway Surfer... Once Temple Run 2 was lagging but I realised that my Power Saving was turned on :p

After installing the Indian firmware, did you perform a Factory Reset? And yes make sure that all your games are on your phone memory NOT your SD card... :)

Or try changing the Governors and I/O..... also try some Scripts like 4CYL.. I never tried it but many people told that it boosts their phone's performance and battery life..

3. no

4. ramdisk

Weird Observation in my GT-i9070...!

Hello Friends,

Q1] I am a total Noob, trying to understand Android better...:rolleyes:

I have a non rooted S Advance which is updated to JB 4.1.2 Indian Firmware I9070DDULP8. I am not sure, if any of you here have observed this, but I have been observing this since the day I bought it and it then came with GB 2.3.6

As users have experienced, the phone does lag at times, but when THE PHONE IS CONNECTED FOR CHARGING, the PHONE IS JUST BUTTERY SMOOTH WITHOUT EVEN A SINGLE LAG, WHEN i SAY "SINGLE LAG", I MEAN IT..!! and it lags again when disonnected from the charger (Not Buttery Smooth)

This observation is since the day I got it. Even Ginger Bread felt like Buttery smooth when used while charging. What does this mean ?:confused:

Q2] My current Kernel Version has the following text:

3.0.31-1119559

se.infra@SEP-88 #2

SMP PREEMPT Tue Apr 9 00:44:24

KST 2013

Now the question; in the above text what does

"#2"

stand for ? Does it state Quality Check of the Device, what I heard is

#2

or

#3

is "Quality Fail" and #1 says the device has passed all the Quality checks and is Excellent without any faults. Is that correct ????:confused:

Awaiting your response.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BOOTMGR:
It actually shows compile number.It gets incremented whenever you compile kernel one more time from the same source(after modifying a bit).What you are assuming/telling may be right because most of the stock firmware have freshly/firstly compiled kernel from source.I've also noticed that in GB kernel too.

I recently heard about Greenify. It hibernates apps you want, so that they don't run in the background unless you run them.

My questions are :-

1)Is this the same as "Limit Background Processes" in developer options?

2)Do Greenify/"Limit Background Processes" make any difference in terms of performance/battery?

3)Is hibernating apps using Greenify bad for my phone(in any way)?

Some app (or apps) are running in background and they are using your phone's RAM. CPU and therefore Battery - eventhough you are not using your phone, those apps are constantly running and is not allowing your phone to "sleep"... Wakelocks are a fundamental part of Android power management - an app can hold a "wake lock" which prevents the phone from fully sleeping. Apps are normally supposed to only hold these when they REALLY need it, but some apps misbehave..

You are rooted right? So debloat your phone (remove all apps you will never use - using NoBloat app from Google Play)... Then use the app Greenify to "hibernate" the apps....

FYI: I use OnDemand + noop (and sio sometimes) for daily usage.... So you can use it too... and before sleeping turn on Power Saving and/or Airplane Mode if no one calls you at night :cowboy:

Hi, maybe someone could help me figure out whats wrong with my phone.

My samsung s advance fell like a month ago into my pool. I immediatly took it out from the water, removed the battery, and left it out in the sun a couple of days and then one week in a bowl full of rice.

After all the drying, the phone was working, but the battery was not lasting quite as much as it used to (it went from like 18 hs of normal use, to 9)

Nowadays, it lasts like 3-4 hs after which it dies.

There is one weird thing also... i can leave the phone with 3g on and updating messages in idle mode (with the lock screen on) and it may last around 10 hours, but as soon as i turn the screen on, doesnt matter if its watching youtube on wifi o or messagin with 2g on only, the battery drains waaaaaaaay too fast, like 1% every 5 minutes.

I tried getting a new battery, updating to jelly bean (i had 2.3), jelly bean with custom kernel, and its always the same result.

Any ideas of what part of the phone might have gotten damaged with the water?
