[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alpha-niner64:
I was finally able to get my hands on a Gnex and was able to do some real world testing using some cheap JVC marshmellows, Brainwavz M4 IEMs, Klipsch s4 IEM and my Sennheiser HD555s.

The loudness between a Voodoo'd Vibrant/Nexus S/Infuse is the same as the Gnex with HPS turned on. This is with the headphone amp for the Voodoo Control app turned to +5dB and the Headphone Volume Boost turned up to 3 using the Trickster MOD control app. I did a blind test between phones using the different IEMs and couldn't tell the difference. This is good.

Sound quality between the phones is 'comparable'. What I mean is that sometimes some music might sound better on the Wolfson equipped phones, some might sound better on the Gnex. I figured the reason for that was because the two DACs are simply different. On the Infuse for example with my s4s I found that there was too much bass in the lower levels. Playing it on the Gnex, the lower levels evened out nicely. On the other hand, the mids-highs using my M4s were much better on the Vibrant than the Gnex. In conclusion: using DSP manager or another equilizer should bridge whatever differences your ears may be hearing for the whole spectrum; confirmed that with the JVCs and the Sennheisers. Interesting enough using the HD555s on the Gnex with HPS +3 caused the music to cutout and stop playing. When I lower the volume the phone doesn't cut out the music anymore....I am using the Fancy kernel on SlimBean 4.2.1 with the xLOUD mods

TL;DR- Loudness/SQ for Gnex with HPS is just as good as Voodoo'd Galaxy S phones for us that workout at the gym and need the extra volume boost. There are small SQ differences but nothing an equilizer can't fix.

Hello XDA i have a problem with my Sensation XE when ever i install a new app or remove one (the most recent one) opens randomly.

Like in the middle of an app i use for now it's Google Music and it gets me mad and slows down my phone really bad.

[HTC Wildfire S] goodguy25:
Is there a way I can remove the gapps apk and replace it with the one in the market?
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Use titanium backup, or es file explorer in es give root permission and mount file system.

Delete the apk, it will be in system/apps

Titanium is an easier option.
[HTC Wildfire S] benjamingwynn:
Or if your a boss

adb shell exec rm /system/app/(name of app without spaces I guess).apk
[HTC Wildfire S] crossfire77:
you can directly remove it via root explorer or manually like mentioned here:

download android emulator and type.

su

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblk3 /system

ls /system/app

rm /system/app/<app-name>

its done..

like for voicesearch type

rm /system/app/voicesearch.apk

I want the 3G icon on my status bar but i have 1x connection.. No 4G , no 1X ...

Help Me Please :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
You'd need to swap the pngs for the 1x icons with 3G icons in your systemui.apk.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kolosus:
Or use a stock rom. On the stock Evo roms the 3g is "stuck" and as long as you have any kind of data connection you'll get 3g showing. Since you're getting 1x your qualify. Plainjane's solution is more appropriate if you want to stay on a custom rom.

The camera app.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gdrocks:
I tried to find them as best I could from Market images. Used the assumption that most of them would be paid apps...I think I was right.

The first app (the Metronome) looks like Musical Pro

The piano could be the same app.

The guitar .. looked at a ton of them on market but couldnt find any that had a similar image. On the plus side, there are a lot of good apps that allow you to "play" a guitar on them.

The mixer looking one is Electrum Drum Machine

Using finger to make a sound was Plasma Sound HD

And of course, the built in camera app using smile detection, the continuous shot and video recorder.

I'm not sure what the others were...couldn't get a solid look to determine if they were actually different apps or not.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] metacircle:
Hello,

I searched for these informations, but I could not really find the right answers. So anyways, I have an Xperia Neo V and I want to flash a Custom ROM.

Here are my Questions:

- Can I do a Nandroid Backup of my current Setup (Bootloader still locked) and flash it back after unlocking the Bootloader (if I am not satisfied with any Custom Rom)?

- Why can't my CWM mount (and thus not backup) /sdext?

- What is the right way to flash CM 7.2? I just found some old solution with replacing some files from the CM from the Neo here. Does this work for every FXP release?

- How stable is CM 7.2? Is it ready for everyday use?

Thank you very much. Answers are appreciated.

I am going to unlock my BL hence these questions.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
1a) yes you can, but you need CWM(there is one for locked bl's) and of course root,

1b) if you unlock it officialy there is need to restore firmware(didn't try but people report that), if you unlock it unofficially(with s1tool) there is no need to restore anything,

2)ok now I see you already have CWM :) but still, sorry can't answer as I don't use sd-ext. What happens when you run full backup, and at the end of backup when it comes to backup-ing sd-ext?

3&4- sorry don't use it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] metacircle:
I get an error saying that /sdext cannot be mounted. Also I was wondering why CWM cannot format SD card. With my LG P500 CWM had this option, also mounting /sdext was no problem there.

Nothing is needed on external sd or internal sd when you root. You can format both internal and external sd cards after rooting with no issues after. Any files that are needed will be replaced after format.
[HTC One S] Sango2:
Hi,

Yesterday, my aunt a HTC One S from T-Mobile. Seems to be a very good phone.

I'm not sure if it was me but both my aunt an I find the interface sort of difficult to use. Is it something to do with because this is a branded phone so the bloatware and menus have changed? This is considering I have Galaxy Nexus and it's pretty clean.

That being said, from reading on the forums a bit, it seems like the Europe one is unbranded and maybe the key in solving this + getting rid of the unwanted apps which were were just literally throwing icons off the screen.

My question is, for changing the roms. What is exactly the steps I need to do? When I tried reading the FAQ for here, it seems more difficult than I thought and a bit confused. Since I did flash my own Galaxy Nexus, reading the FAQ over there was more straight forward (ie. dirver, get factory image, unlock boot loader, fastboot flash...).

Your help is appreciated.
[HTC One S] mannequin:
i agree with the OP. we have 3 threads in the Development section to perform the root procedure and further manipulations and they all seem to be all over the place. we need one, up to date guide.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
Welcome to the forum--

First off you are in wrong section--need to post in Q&A. A mod will probably move it for you

Start by reading FAQ/Rules etc

Hard to find one and only one guide anywhere. Need to read all you can. I have gone thru some threads 3 times to understand it all

I used the Unlock/Root thread and did all manually, and had to ask one or two questions in the noob thread after I got rooted, but all pretty straight forward if you have rooted before

The 1s is a great phone--enjoy

The basics are unlock with htcdev

flash a custom rom, with with stock one as some you have to flash boot.img separately and is more difficult

flash superuser, you can also get SU from market

The unlock/root thread by torxx is fairly easy

You don't need the interim cwr anymore, get regular one from koush 5.8.3.1 I believe
[HTC One S] angr1112:
Or give yourself a week or two with the phone. In the two weeks that I have had my One S, I have disabled apps that I know I will not use, I have personalized it to a point that I find it to be a very productive device.

Of course eventually I will root/unlock, etc. As of now I'm in no hurry.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mhguy15:
I'm looking for an app to automatically and securely wipe previusly deleted data from my phone. Preferably when its idle and sitting in the background.

When I get rid of my phone, I don't want anyone to be able to recover my sensitive data such as my emails, and my text messages. It could be a little embarassing.

I've tried SHREDroid for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus but it crashes everytime I start it. Does anyone know of other available options?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
The difficulty for someone to recover your old files (if even possible) is not worth the time.. You really shouldn't worry because your emails are gone when you remove your account, and if you delete a text it is gone. I think the only thing you have to worry about is your Google login data, and even that is more trouble than it's worth to recover (unless someone really hates you) and even then 99% of potential buyers probably don't even know it is possible (or care).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mhguy15:
I'm not sure this is entirely true. Here's my example: I have a Verizon HTC Thunderbolt that I have been using since Dec '11. I wanted to make a back up of my text messages, so that I could restore them to me new phone.

I downloaded an SMS backup from the Play market, entered my gmail credentials to store my SMS and when I checked the next morning, I had over +8000 backed up SMS messages. I was curious, and looked through to see what was somehow restored. I have routinely kept my text inbox tidy because it feels slower when one thread has over 2000 messages.

This is what prompted me to search for an answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
What app? I will give it a go as well, but I do not believe the phone keeps the deleted texts. Could be wrong though.

"Long is the way, and hard, that out of hell leads up to light."

Howdy,

So I have been playing with my note and I absolutely adore it! One question though, is being within 10 meters good for the note or do some of you all get lower like 3 meters?

I remember I use to always get 3 meters on my infuse when I had it.

I'd like opinions on both indoors and outdoors.

Thanks!

What??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyanv:
GNote has glonass and gps so no doubt it could work better than infuse. Accuracy depends upon the the signal quality (like if you have clear sky signal is good and it can connect more than 2 satellites). I am getting upto 6meter with little cloud on open sky. Indoor am getting around 20 mts with sensor aiding enabled.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angieutc:
What don't you understand? I'm simply asking does getting 10 meters on Google Maps sound about accurate for the Note or is 3 meters better?

Meaning, when you hit GMaps and it finds your location -- How many meters does yours settle at?

Correct me (politely) if I am asking this wrong.

I just got my new galaxy note. International version. Its currently running on stock GB out of the box,unrooted. Kernel version is 2.6.35.7 that is its running on stock GB kernel aswell.

The first thing i did was install the brick bug app and it gave me the result saying my emmc chip is having the brick bug,even when im on stock kernel n FW.

Emmc Chip

Type:VYLOOM

Revision:0x19

Which GB kernel should i install so that im safe? I searched but was not able to find appropiate solution. which thread should i refer to?

Cheers.!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p107r0:
afair GB is safe, but don't trust anybody ;-), first place to start is sticky in General section by Entropy 512
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lakshay Sethi:
I know that a wipe through cwm may cause the brick bug. But a simple factory reset to the phone can also cause it to occur?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p107r0:
I might be terribly wrong, but my understanding is that both cwm wipe and factory reset done from affected ICS ROMs may result in superbrick, GB is considered safe (does not contain the feral command affecting the emmc), that's why most threads on ICS update suggest changing ICS ROMs via GB
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lakshay Sethi:
Yeah maybe they must be safe,but when i installed the superbrick app from chainfire it showed that my phone was prone to bricking.

Since im on stock gb,il root my device and install the PARANOIDANDROID rom to be on the safe side. will that work ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p107r0:
gotbrick app shows if you have the affected hardware, it does not mean that any operation will result in brick, it means there is a probability that this may happen when you attempt to flash or wipe using ICS kernel (the thread I mentioned is here),

since you plan to go from GB to ICS, there is no direct risk, at least no related to known causes of superbrick,

anyway, to spare yourself unnecessary panic attacks in the middle of flashing - before you attempt to flash anything read instrutions until you feel comfortable
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lakshay Sethi:
I already read that thread. It says all GB kernels are safe. Since im on GB,il stay like this till the time any permanent solution comes up or will change to PARANOIDANDROID rom after reading how.! thank you for your help! Since i got the note today only i dont want to mess it up the very next day!

appreciate your help. thank you very much !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p107r0:
If its your first day, then I'd definitely recommend staying on GB for a few weeks, until you get bored with it, stock roms are not that bad, especially when you disable unnecessary crapware
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lakshay Sethi:
Yeah i haven't even used the stock rom fully for a day. Il stick with it until a fix by samsung comes comes out.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Only having that chip is not a issue, but having bad kernel (ICS) with that chip is problem

It can occur with wipe cache/wipe data/factory reset/deleting big file, even it is recommended not to use recovery at all.

[Quantum General] bobzero:
The battery indicator does not refresh while the screen is turned on. So if you are watching a video or playing a game for 30-40 mins without turning the screen off, the battery will show only a few points drop in 1-5%. But if you turn off the screen and back on it will then suddenly show the more accurate 20-40% drop.

A few times my phone has completely shut off without warning while in use because the battery completely drained while playing a game. It gave no critical battery warning because it fails to refresh unless you turn the screen off.

I've been annoyed by this issue on my LG Quantum for about 8 months now but never got around to posting about it.

This happens for sure on the Telstra internet sharing firmware, and the Bell mango firmware. Not sure about the other firmware versions.
