[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midoo90:
but a friend of mine has a Note and he told me there are no problems like that with him and his device got heat only when he runs heavy games ,but mine got heat with normal browsing for a bit long time ,, some people told that it belongs to the new Rom that it maybe broken or something ,, is that possible ??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhasg1007:
Which rom you are in now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxos:
Wild guess ics stock with autobrightness on. You can boil a egg on the screen at a bright day. And his friend used still GB or autobrightness off and he used low brightness. If the heat comes from back then you have triggered the eastern eggs of ics and Samsung for the 1.000.000 wakelocks, restart phone helps.

GL&HF with ics for now on note

Dear Braxos ..

I didn't understand ,, what do you want me to do ??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxos:
Nothing just disable auto-brightness. Somehow with high brightness the screen burns on ics and on GB wasn't, dunno why my way out is to disable it and use high brightness when is needed all other times I use no brightness.
[Motorola Droid X2] taz1458:
Is the fascinate worth it? I've had enough of this X2, and am looking to just get something to hold me over til I can afford to buy a Galaxy Nexus. Any tips?
[Motorola Droid X2] tallyforeman:
What's so horrible about your X2?
[Motorola Droid X2] taz1458:
Just how laggy it is and lack of an unlocked bootloader
[Motorola Droid X2] tallyforeman:
Which ROM are you running?
[Motorola Droid X2] taz1458:
I've tried Eclipse(2.0, 2.2 & 2.2.1[current]) and CM7. Unless I use ram booster it just runs ridiculously slow.
[Motorola Droid X2] tallyforeman:
I really think you need to SBF and start over from scratch. I'm running CM7 mashed up as a DD and it works like a charm. And honestly I feel like CM7 right out of the box was even faster. I've read some of your posts and it seems like you are concerned with bloatware and the locked bootloader. Loading a ROM will get rid of nearly or all of the bloat and free up alot of the lag. The locked bootloader really isn't all that bad unless you are more into hardcore customizing. It seems like you just want your phone to run right like its supposed to without all the craziness. Start from scratch and run CM7 only with no add ons or boosters or whatnot, its gotta make a wold of difference. Here's a look at my get-up, if you will.
[Motorola Droid X2] taz1458:
I do have 2.3.4 backed up right after root. That's essentially identical to a SBF correct?

Sent from my Motocrap Droid X2 w/ Eclipse 2.2.1
[Motorola Droid X2] tallyforeman:
If it were me and were still having trouble, I'd start all the way over and not from a backup to eliminate all the guesswork and get a fresh download of everything. You will like your X2 again.

And to answer your question, if you were SBF fresh, you wouldn't be rooted.
[Motorola Droid X2] taz1458:
Well I knew that part. Lol. Its essentially sbf'ed with root is what I meant.

[Motorola Droid X2] ztotherad:
bro, i have the fassy, and honestly i think its worth it, the fascinate has the same amount of RAM the x2 does, but the fassy is running ics (from aokp, gummy, cm9, and team hacksungs own) reallllly well, plus it being unlocked=kernels, i think it was a fair trade up for the dx2 thats stuck with motoblur (crap)
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Not to say you aren't getting great performance from your X2 on CM7, but I've ran CM7, Eclipse, MIUI, Liberty, and Molten on my X2. I kept finding myself going back to Eclipse.

But, none of them ever made the X2 run flawlessly, especially when it came to music and the entire skipping issue. Even using the V6 Turbocharger scripts helped somewhat but not completely.

Under Eclipse 2.2.1, I also set up Titanium Backup to clear user cache and reboot the phone nightly (usually around 4 am after it was done doing backups and pushing them out to my Box account).

I'm now on a Droid RAZR and the performance between the two is night and day. The RAZR screams and I don't have to use the V6 turbocharger scripts. Music doesn't skip and the performance of the phone is through the roof. You know what that sad part is? The RAZR and the X2 are almost the same as far as both being dual-core and the RAZR only being .2 ghz faster than the X2.

The RAZR is a dual-core (like the X2) running at 1.2 ghz (as opposed to 1.0 ghz with the X2). But, the RAZR uses a TI chip while the X2 uses a Tegra-2 chip. The Tegra chips run better proportionately compared to the TI chips. Benchmarking shows the X2 scoring 2660 while the RAZR scores 2700. Overall, that shows that a 1ghz TI chip would score lower than the 1ghz Tegra chip.

But, the RAZR still out-performs the X2 by almost 20%. And where that comes, in my honest opinion, is the memory. The X2 has a total of 8gb onboard memory, with 512mb being used for the internal memory to run apps and such. Compare that to the X2 which has 16gb total memory with 1gb being used for the internal memory for apps and such.

This allows for better application management when it comes to multitasking and I really do believe this is part of the issue with the music skipping and the relatively poor performance the X2 displays, especially after it's been up and running without rebooting.

With my RAZR, I haven't had to reboot for days and I still get the same peak performance. Of course, this is running Eclipse on it, but even with the stock (which I kept on it for about a total of 3 hours until I figured out how to root and flash Eclipse on it), it felt VERY snappy and smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mathfreak2000:
Just for fun.

Do you have a custom or stock ROM on your Galaxy Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gavin-phelan:
Custom .switching between euroskanks cm9 and aokp the whole time
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Running AOKP M5, gives more option of customizing.

Stock ROM is fine too, if you don't need to customize.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jnr21:
Custom ofcourse. Now liquid linaro 1.5rc2, tomorrow maybe something else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lxyu:
Custom of course.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bat0nas:
Custom!!!

Stock is good. But once you try the custom ROM... you don't want ever go back to stock. Really. You will miss so many handy stuff in stock ROM which is pretty standard in all custom ROMs. For instance:

- Long press back button kills the app.

- Or toggles in notification area

etc.

Currently:

Slim ICS ROM.

CM9 is OK. But it's not Slim ICS :)

AOKP is very similar to Slim (almost the same). But not as stable and slim as Slim ICS :D

So.. Slim ICS is the only option for me. All the other ROMs.. well.. good luck with all the other :P :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hp13:
Idk even why Google make stock so slow and I hated the gradient effect. Google should hire these custom rom devs. They really have skills and talents. After using custom I can't go to that slow, laggy stock rom....

Loving the rascream + trinity 65 stable and cid boot animation :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luffyp:
It's funny that all the comments so far say custom roms, yet the poll result says otherwise. My guess is that people using stock rom have absolutely no problem with it and feel no need to "brag" about how good/stable their rom is :)

Edit: Yes, I voted stock rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phatmanxxl:
Im always rooted and ROMed within the hour of getting my phone. So custom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chaotic Peace:
custom, running Eclipse 1.7.1. Definitely recommend it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Right now running custom (CM9) but would have no issue's with just using Stock rooted. Google does a good job putting out stable code that works well. I just like having a couple extra features that CM9 adds.

A kernel is a must though, although stock ROM is good the kernel they push out is obviously not very well optimized.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oldblue910:
My Gnex and my Xoom are both bone stock, unrooted, locked bootloaders, the whole nine yards. I know how to root, I know how to flash custom ROMs, and once I learned, my curiosity was satisfied. The custom stuff just has way too many tweaks, customizations, etc. The motto of AOSP and kernel developers alike seems to be to include everything and the kitchen sink. That may work for some, but not for me. I don't want to have to think about it all.

I buy my devices to use them productively day in and day out, rather than to **** around with them constantly haha! Having root access doesn't give me any abilities that I need to achieve that purpose, nor do custom ROMs and kernels give me anything the stock ROM doesn't give me for achieving that purpose.

In the end, the stock ROM is fast, stable, clean, and doesn't include all the extras that I don't need, want, or want to think about. Some have asked me "Well then if you don't mess with them at all or don't develop with them, why do you even buy Google experience devices?" The answer to that question is simple...I want the plain vanilla stock Android experience and the latest Android versions. My interest goes no further than that.

I subscribe to the design and UI philosophy of "less is more", and within that parameter, the stock Android experience delivers in spades. It gives me everything I need and nothing I don't. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crachel:
This has been my school of thought with the Galaxy Nexus, as well. I did unlock the bootloader straight away, just in case I wanted to try custom ROMs and go back to stock. I haven't had that itch yet though.

I'm not in anyway knocking custom ROMs (I've happily used them on every previous device), I do feel though they are the "scenic route" for this particular phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ssamara:
Ran stock + root for the first few months until curiosity got the better of me and I installed CM9 a few days ago. Mostly all good so far apart from a problem with Google Music stuttering occasionally (accompanied by a nice screeching sound :rolleyes:) for no apparent reason.

Thinking of trying Slim ICS next, or I might stick with CM9 depending on how much the stuttering problem annoys me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I use the stock ROM. I personally don't use many of the customization in other ROMs. And for aesthetics, I don't need UI customizations -- I don't really care how the UI looks. (I was fine with Froyo's UI :o )

Root is required for me, as I use apps that need it (such as Quick Boot, which allows you to reboot your device without turning it off and back on again, and Market Enabler, which allows us non-Americans access U.S.-only apps).

As for the bootloader, I firmly believe in unlocking (I unlocked it even before booting Android for the first time), as for me, the benefits out-weigh the negative: I like being able to recovery files (e.g., pictures before they got synced to the cloud) on my device in case it crashes and can't boot, and I like being able to back up my setup so that in case anything happens, I can always go back to it -- both of which can not easily be done if your bootloader is locked. There are many more benefits as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
Stock ROMs are slow and sometimes unresponsive. That is inevitable even for the Galaxy Nexus.

Custom ROMs are far more tweaked and optimized. Custom ROMs, though, are not necessarily better, since what's best is user-defined. We all have our needs and as long as we're satisfied with what we have, we do just fine.

Quick boot? That sounds like an app that only reboots/reloads the system and not the kernel, correct? (i.e. full boot) What market enabler app works perfectly for ICS?

+1

Besides, on a phone like the Galaxy Nexus, relocking it is dead easy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Amphibliam:
I use BAMF paradigm. Its awesome. No other rom is as stable. Also love the quick settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WoodroweBones:
Using Black Ice... started with LiquidSmooth and really liked it (love having profiles so that I can set a "Night" mode in which only my phone will ring and everything else is customized to either just vibrate or just notify by the LED). I then went to AOKP and tried Gummy briefly but neither had profiles. Found Black Ice which is a modified AOKP and havent looked back since. Aside from the nice White on Black scheme it has profiles and has the option for the weather in the notification page.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddemlong:
Was running it on my razor. How is the performance compared to cm9, aokp, gummy?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shahm0nsterr:
I can't live without my AOKP!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackhand1001:
Custom. Cm9 kang by winner00 and Franco kernel 512 MHz gpu
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mathfreak2000:
Well, personally, I use the stock ROM.

It's all a matter of preference.

Some people find custom ROMs to be "too much to handle" because of all the customizations, updates and whatnot.

Others find that the stock ROM is just not enough for them and they want to do more with their phone.

In the end, there is no "best" ROM - whatever makes you happy is the best ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rygran87:
I love my AOKP. I didn't care for it so much when it first came out because it wasn't as refined as it is now. Now, on this phone it gives me all the theme options I want and I can have 5 Nav Bar buttons. I'm perfectly content with my phone for once. I just flash updates when they come up and haven't touched my overall setup in weeks. Now if only Sprint would take care of data speeds in my area, I'd never complain about my phone again. Let's face it, on a sweet phone like this 150kbps is painful.

Recently made the switch over to custom, there are just so many options to choose from now. Was on AOKP for a few builds and am now running Gummy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddemlong:
Personally I love gummy because its middle ground

Its stable, fast, and customizable but not completely nuts with features.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
I am on stock at the moment. I might be making the plunge sometime soon
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shiznu:
CM9 rom and kernal smooth and stable
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pitflyer:
Stock rooted. It works so I leave it be. My other Android devices have always gone custom but stock so far here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PoloM1:
Got the Verizon Galaxy Nexus the first day it was released.

Was more or less satisfied with stock ROM, things got a little better when they finally released 4.0.4, but I got tired of being at the mercy of Verizon.

Took the plunge about a week ago. Now running Gummy ROM 1.2.0 with Franco Kernel m4.

So glad I went custom, my only regret is I didn't do it sooner.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Custom, but I hold no ill will against stock. Both are good for different reasons.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vince7:
Custom! I run paranoid android in tablet mode because most of my apps are optimized to exactly the way I want them and i can apply almost any theme Chooser theme and I have the most customization I've ever seen. The per app display and other features make this from stand out above all others it may not be the fastest but I came to android for the features and this from delivers :)

Has anyone managed to top up Google Wallet in the UK or anywhere outside of the USA? I've used my free $10 and it worked like a charm in McDonalds and it would be great if we could figure out a way to get it topped up without having to have a friend in the USA etc...

Thanks for the reply however I cannot see any info in that forum with regards to topping up outside of the USA. Could you point me in the direction of which page it is?

Thanks again.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
From that link...

"Topping Up

So you've installed the APK and spent your initial $10 at Greggs or maybe Mcdonalds. Healthy. :P Now you need to top up... there's a problem!

Google Wallet only allows you to load the prepaid card using a US card, which most of us accessing Wallet this way don't have! The card that you use needs to support AVS (address verification) with a US address, something that also excludes a number of US cards. I'm hoping that we as a community can collaborate to work out the best way to do this, but i've tried a few methods and i've chronicled them below. I'll update this post as more methods / information surfaces. I'm hoping we can find a low cost disposable Visa solution or similar that makes the process easy. Getting a US address is easy enough to associate with a card, just sign up (free) for US Unlocked.

BFPS- Virtual credit card in various denominations, configurable AVS address, use coupon 'modaco' for 5% discount - WORKING

EntroPay - Virtual credit card, turns out to be Malta registered and doesn't support AVS - FAILED

US Unlocked card - Virtual credit card, currently untested - UNKNOWN"
[HTC One X] fbloise:
I found that extremely expensive. A virtual-card of US$50 for US$69 ? they are charging like 20% for the service alone.

This is so far what I've done.

-Went to Borderlinx to get an U.S. based address (borderlinx.com)

-I received an email with such address

-Went to EntroPay (entropay.com) to get a Virtual debit card using my UK details.

-Then after the card was set up and topped, I went to Google Wallet directly (wallet.google.com) and added the card using the Borderlinx address details.

-I tested the card in play.google.com, buying a game (where's my perry) and even though my account is UK based, I decided to make the EntroPay card my default and it charged me in US$ ($0.99 instead of £0.69). Checked in Wallet and the transaction was successful.

Next thing to do:

-Try to pay using Google Wallet in my Galaxy S3 in any Paypass vendor (Greggs, McDonalds, you name it). Since the card was accepted in Google Play, I guess it will be OK when I try to pay using the card in Greggs.

Keep in mind I'm using the latest version, the one that allows to use any card and pulls the cards you have used in Google Play.

Fingers crossed!

Hi. Before my Q here's a background of what happened.

1. I made a backup through CWM of my system.

2. Earlier today i tried flashing primehd ver 8 for stock kernel. Standard procedure. CWM > flashed ROM > full wipe etc...

3. Problem = I got stuck on SE's logo. Ok maybe I messed up. reread the threads and asked some Q's and did the steps on #3.

4. Still the same result.

5. What the heck I'll just go back to GDX :D

6. Flashed ROM and again standard procedure of wiping etc...

7. Rebooted and everything is ok.

8. Went back to CWM and tried to restore the backup that i made. (same CWM version)

My question is why is it after restoring my backup and restarting my phone, I AGAIN got stuck on SE's logo?

Is there no way to restore my backup?

I did try searching before posting this but unfortunately I couldn't find a thread that could answer my Q...

So help... Thanks!

BTW, it wouldn't hurt if someone told me what mistake i made when I flashed primehd (i intentionally flashed ver 8 NOT 9)

Thanks in advance!

If u made a backup of stock ROM (default SE ROM) and u are on the stock kernel(default SE kernel) then u will get no boothangups if u restore...
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
the problem is you are wiping after flash the rom,you should do it before. some roms needs after some before:rolleyes: check the instructions at the op from the rom you want to install.

now if you are stuck to Sony ericsson logo and you can access cwm do the following

full wipe

wipe dalvik

flash rom

about the back up..are you wiping after restore?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cascabel:
I think you're right. I wiped after i flashed primehd cause that's the instruction for gdx. Maybe that's why.

The instruction in the op is for ver 9 but it has a hotfix for stock kernel you need to flash in addition to the rom so i got confused.:(

For restoring backup i did both. I tried wiping twice (before backup once after). I also tried restoring without wiping. I even followed a thread and advance restored data, fix permissions.

EDIT: thanks for answering. I've decided to restore manually using titanium backup. :)

A bit of a hassle but at least i don't need to reflash. :D
