If you need to ask a question about the best ROM, then you certainly haven't done any reading. Pretty much all ROMs aside from the Blackout ICS Primo (which is still in Alpha development so you can't really expect much) are smooth and stable to varying degrees. If you had searched, you would have found probably around 100, maybe more threads in this forum alone asking the same question, with the majority of them asking for smoothness and stability.

Also, if you're confused with flashing just use this guide and everything shall be clear.

So please don't buy this crap n go for BEST SKINS EVER..I have ordered it n the reviews are really good.

Just wanted to make u guys aware so that u don't get cheated..

To be fair my bestskinsever skin for my old Sony Xperia Play has gone yellow too, but not sure how long it took, but it is noticeable since it is a white phone with a yellowish skin on it.....

I haven't tried my gadget shieldz skin yet but expected it to do the same.....

Also same with my zagg shield one on my old Dell Streak.....

Ya I know..but it takes some time..but the gadgetshieldz turned yellow from where we hold it n in just 15 days..it's more of oil stains n stuff..dats y it sucks..

[HTC One X] white_android:
I have already ordered mine so I guess I can see for myself.

As far as I know, the pale yellow problem depends in your usage and not the screen protector. The white paint on the phone, the chemicals in the screen protector and the oil react to give a pale yellow effect. This problem is not visible on black devices because black paint contains less amount of some chemical in comparison to the white paint.

Anyway I'll post updates when I get mine.
[HTC One X] jhawk2820:
Of course you only see good review, especially in their web, because they do filtering and only showing good review and removed the bad comments.

How I get to know is because i wrote few bad review in the feedback and none is shows/display.:eek:
[HTC One X] twe69:
Just an update, mine has gone yellow too.... Did take longer than 15 days as above though but maybe different climates..... Not sure how long exactly maybe a month.....

Anyway am selling the phone and have moved across to the Samsung Galaxy s3 which I find to be a step up on the hardware and software front.

As for the picture, that would appear to be a result of modifications made to your phone. Maybe you should have provided more details about your phone and any changes made to it.
[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
I think that's just a part of the settings in ICS... 'Cause phones like Galaxy Nexus support 4G. HTC probably forgot to remove the LTE Option.

Dear Solai,

Thank you for contacting HTC.

With reference to your query, only the HTC One XL has the 4G capability on phone. LTE option on some HTC phone can only detect 4G data service, however, once the 4G network was lost your data connection will lost as well not unless you will change it to again. Not like the 4G capable phone that even the 4G network is not available it will automatically search for the available network in the area.

Baseband: I9100XXLPW

Build: IML74K.XWLPD

I saw some similar topics, but they either didn't fully cover my problem or necroing them would not help. If I missed a more suitable topic, please direct me to that one, my searches might have missed it.

Anyway, on this telephone at home I get between 1d-2d of battery life using WiFi, depending on what I do with it. My router at home is an old Linksys WRT54G running DD-WRT.

I also had no problems at work for a while, but since a few weeks whenever I connect to the WiFi here, which are Ciscos, my wireless icon in the notification bar has the download arrow (orange) almost constantly lit. This doesn't happen when just using 3G, only when I switch on wireless. Consequently the phone never enters deep sleep and the battery is drained at the end of day.

How can I best track down what is keeping the download side of my WiFi lit up? I've tried various tools, but they are all very, very generic in that they only seem to log aggregate data used over WiFi, yet no application exists, that I know of, that shows me which application or service is pulling data at the moment over WiFi.

Is it even an application that's causing this? I mean, given I have no problems at home with excessive drain and wireless, can it simply be something changed at work with regard to wireless that's causing it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Since you're at home anyway, just plug it in.

You don't mention what tools you allegedly found, so:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashemedai:
How do you mean? When I am at home I do not have these issues at all, the WiFi is behaving as it should and no excessive drain happens.

...snip, can't quote URLs just yet...

I knew I forgot to mention something:

I use Wifi Analyzer to check the various SSIDs on the channels.

For the battery information I tried, in the past, Watchdog Lite, Spare Parts Plus!, Data Traffic Monitor, Traffic Monitor, and Network Counter.

Guess I should just buy BetterBatteryStats and see if adds anything. And I missed that WireShark port! Now to see about rooting my phone to make use of it.

Edit: BetterBatteryStats confirms that using WiFi at home and 3G on the road has no kernel wakelocks. Just using WiFi at the office for a few minutes already shows 2m of wlan_rx_wake/wlan_wake, just like the icon showed it was doing. So next is rooting and sniffing to see just what's going on.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Idan73:
why do people keep saying that. they are 100 % same phone and completely interchangeable.

if i can use att rom ,modem and kernel,they for sure can use ours.

this kind of false information spreading just fragments our already crappy dev section even more.

its a joke when i see root kernel for every freakin canadian provider individually. its a same freakin kernel. the only difference between those 3 is csc. even provider apps are only contained inside csc, so roms themselves otherwise are absolutely identical.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] AdamLange:
Stop flaming man and read thread, he was talking about AT&T version of phone which is different than canadian versions of SGS3.

The goal here is to provide separate packages for all brands, cause they may (and probably will) change after some updates, so every operator will have diff version.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Idan73:
OK sorry if I came of too strong. But you have to realise history of north American operators. Like this everyone will follow just their own operator, consequently this thread will be very empty over the lifetime of this phone. One firmware update. 2 at the most. I9000m bell model otherwise identical to international 3 updates (one above norm for screwing up access to recovery and killing internal card thereby phone in droves). I9100m bell identical to international, one update, Rogers sgs2 identical to att, no firmware updates, Telus sgs2 different hardware, none. Att sgs2, one update.... The list goes on. Finally we get a chance to join forces and then this....

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28419659&postcount=1

notice where att model is listed and grouped. that is the same clasification it should be followed in this forum imo.

Yes I know he was talking about att phone he owns. Get this, it's the same phone. 100 percent same. Don't tell people that it will not work, cause I own Rogers Canadian version and have flashed att kernel, modem and rom, working fine 100 percent, with the usual att crap, no tethering etc. And back to Canadian firmware 100 percent.

Wouldn't you say that he can do the same from att phone? Why do you not see in international section op saying Italian firmware will not work in phone from England or Poland for that matter?

Because it's divisive and simply not true and although I really respect you hosting links to stock firmwares, making insecure kernels etc. Seems you don't own the phone or you would see for yourself.

Anyways I spoke my 2 cents or little more lol and will leave you to do your great job.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] PeterGuru:
You're right ...

You're right. The operative word is STOCK. I can almost guarantee you that if you try to flash a stock (Canadian) ROM on an AT&T device, either it won't work at all, or certain features will not work.

However, if you have a CUSTOM ROM, go right ahead. Again, and this has been 100% confirmed, if you flash a custom ROM with a Rogers base on to an AT&T device, you still will not get the three features everyone seems to want: USB Tethering, Wifi Hotspot, and LTE Toggle.

I'm working with JDBeitz on his custom DIET ICS! ROM to get this working for AT&T users. I'm a Rogers guy, and his custom ROM is working perfectly on my unit, but AT&T users are still saying that the LTE toggle is not working properly.

So, even though both units are the "same," and I put the word "same" in quotation marks, there are subtle differences, and those differences can have significant consequences.

Also does the factory image include a copy of the kernel or does it need to be flashed seperately. Any info on procedure etc is greatly appreciated.Thanks!!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] clubtech:
I can confirm that AT&T has locked the radio portion of the phone from being loaded when a non AT&T modem file is flashed.

I was able to flash the rogers or Telus system, recovery but the modem would simply not work on the AT&T model. You get no signal and baseband version unknown.

If the Canadian model can work with the AT&T modem but not vice versa it means that AT&T put some restriction where it would not load any modem not signed for the i747 (and the Canadian model is signed for the i747M).

So basically you can take these Odin packages and flash various parts using mobile odin, but the modem part will not work on the AT&T model.

EDIT: possible solution would be to dd the various sbl files in the Canadian firmware to the AT&T model and then try to flash the modem. This is possibly very risky as it might hard brick the device.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] PeterGuru:
Good information ...

Good information. I think when people say they've been able to install an AT&T based ROM on their Rogers device, as I have done before, they don't realize that the new ROM DOES NOT include the modem. Therefore, they end up with the same modem they had before the flash.

Also, would it be possible to change the "identifiers" so as to "cheat" the system? I'm with Rogers, so this issue isn't important to me; however, I'm helping another member, JDBeitz, design a new custom ROM for our units with a Rogers base, as the Rogers units include the LTE Toggle, as well as standard USB Tethering and Wifi Hotspot.

His ROM is working very well, but we simply cannot seem to get the LTE Toggle feature to work on AT&T units. Any ideas?

Peter
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] clubtech:
The reason that the network mode doesn't work on his ROM is because the radio is RAT locked and as long as we can't flash a Canadian radio on the at&t version we won't be able to change network modes.

The change the identity of the AT&T models we will need to flash the sbl files in the Rogers firmware package. These sbl files will change the identity of the phone from i747 to i747M and will probably allow us to flash the full Canadian firmware with the radio. This however can be a very risky thing to do as if it doesn't work you will end up with a hard bricked phone.
