Are you talking about Cold Fusion HD or my icon app?

Can you give me the activity names for those apps? I've a hard time finding those. You can get activity names like this: In LauncherPro, Add > Shortcuts > Activities. Scroll down to the app you want the icon for and paste the activity name here (activity names look like com.android.browser.BrowserActivity)

Just rooted. Using stock rom for now. What are some of the "uneccesary" things you have deleted safely to de-bloat and use less resources? (possibly even less battery drain).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] zeesubalpha:
I would browse the development forum for your particular model and research which .apk's (these are the "things" you want to delete to debloat) they are safely removing. generally anything your provider (NOT samsung) puts on there (for instance, AT&T navigation for me) is safe to go.

of course always perform a FULL CWM/nandroid backup and EFS backup before attempting any of this or you will be sorry!

good luck

edit: and there are a lot of ROMs out there that are more or less the same as the stock rom, just debloated/deodexed/etc. you could always find a stable on you like and flash it.

just be sure and do a full nandroid and efs backup first!

[Motorola Droid X2] freakboy13:
Ok I am making this thread so peeps can just reference this.MOds feel free to move if not a good place for Q&A but I figure this is the best place.

I just bought a dx2 ( some of you may be calling me capt postwhore right now lol) andI was wondering a few things. I put my questions together as a guide for those who get noobitis once in a while. I tested everything myself. :good:

I am still on 2.3.3 should I up date?

I would say a general rule of thumb is root first update later.

First off DL Petes Moto tool

Root your phone by going to settings> Set usb to charge only> go to development >enable "usb debugging"

plug in phone to pc

click the petes tool and run as administrator.

chill

Does Voodoo OTA rootkeeper work?

Go to market DL voodoo OTA rootkeeper. Open create root bU.

Next do yore thang and update!

first thing once update is done: go to rootkeeper ap and hit re-install root!

done and rooted! re opne rootkeeper to check and allow SU access....and it says I am rooted.

Confirmed to work for updating from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4>2.3.5

:cool:

What Super User app should I use

technically if you used petes super user is already their. If it works dont ifx it right? Well thats not how I work. lol. stupid ocd.

So going off my DX I dl'd superuser from chainsdd in market.

I did this after I rooted and before update, not that it matters.

took the ota and was aksed to up date the binary...done and done. no issues.

I had SU by chainfire on my one x, loved the theme worked flawlessly. Tried it on my DX didnt notice any difference so I am sticking with regular ol superuser.

No issues even after both updates.

SHould I install busy box is it stable

yes and yes, also had it on my DX worked great caused no noticeable issues.

I use the busybox pro by stericson.

YES I know these questions have been answered a bajilion times. Yes I know answers are out there ..."just search dude!!" I just figure this will help guys like me who are newbs here and so I compiled these questions with answers and step by step proceedures to use them. I am doing this in hopes it will make searches shorter and easier.

The funny thing is from what I have been reading doesnt really seem like any of this is technically neccesary. I guesse coming from the dx and the whole 621 bs, I figured I had to do it this way or if nothing else it was safer? I could be wrong but I think pete's works on all updates? ANyways this was just to help people answer some questions that I was wondering myself.

If you think I should add anything LMK.

Apparently my phone was magically bricked without me even doing anything to it besides the fact that i just picked it up and went to check the news on the huffington post and it just shuts off and never came back on after that, i am planning on sending it to MobileTechVideos as due to you guy's request, but there are some question i wanna know which they havent answered since i been trying to contact them for about 4-5days with no response.

Will they send me a package to send my phone in so i can ship it to them?

Or will i have to provide it on my own?

If so, what package should i send it in?

I really need you guy's help, coming Monday will be an entire week without a phone for me, and i basically gotta use my G1 just go tether my way online, i could use my insurance and hope they don't find out i am rooted and get a new phone, but there is about 10gb of data on my internal that i want back.

It is being downloaded and verifies.

I then select to restart & install.

The phone starts booting, but stays on the Google logo for a very long time (more than half an hour).

To try the update again I have to take the battery out, restart the phone (which shows 4.0.2), clear Google Services Framework and check for update.

The updates download etc. etc.

My phone is not rooted and it had no problem in the past updating OTA to 4.0.2

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
So you are trying to update "YAKJUXW" 4.0.2 to 4.0.4?

hmm.. have you flashed any custom kernel or another radio baseband and are you using custom Clockworkmod..?

try to make backup of the 4.0.2 if possible (move to somewhere PC, hardware,..) and then make factory reset and try then update it to 4.0.4

No. Nothing like this.

I will try the factory reset if I can't fix it without it.

I've been experiencing same. Bought GalNex from (apparently) Poland before Play store. It is yakjuxw. Past two weeks it's tried to update itself 3 times and just sits at (white) Google on black screen for a very long time.

I actually have to remove battery to recover. Then all is well, but no firmware update and if i follow reddit.com's -> ysk_how_to_get_the_404_ota_quicker to "force" the update, same result.

Did your factory reset solve the problem?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OferR:
No resolution :(

Sorry, I did nothing so far. I'm still on 4.0.2.

When I get the time, I'm likely to move on to a rooted yakju.

The rom is not working, if you have CWM5 installed just flash a new rom over.

1) Boot into recovery mode

2) Clear data/factory reset

3) Wipe cache partition

4) Advanced -> Wipe dalvik cache

5) Install zip from sd-card and select the new rom, I suggest you Stocklite V6, great rom! Search it here on XDA.

These steps should help you.

[Off-topic] LxMxFxD:
Ubuntu has come a LONG way and is now very good. However there is nothing like windows in terms of development. I use both ubuntu 12.04 and windows 7 professional. Ubuntu is obviously free and awesome but here's a list of things I couldn't do in ubuntu that I could in windows:

1. Overclock my laptop's 5650m gpu.

2. Cannot use turbo on my latpop's intel cpu. I spent about 2 hours trying to get it working but never found a solution. Not a huge deal but definitely wish I could use it as I paid for it.

As far as I can tell, that is about it. Ubuntu also only uses about 1.5GB of ram, is wickedly fast and stable and of course supremely customizable. If you are going for development the OS doesn't matter much, your compiler and emulator does. I'm somewhat certain ubuntu is faster than windows when tweaked, but you have to pretty much be an expert on how to tweak it. If you have a fast machine (say a quadcore with 8GB of ram) I doubt there is any performance difference between the two OSes. Its unlikely you will be compiling millions of lines of code for an android app, after all.

Hi folks,

I didnot know my X8 can be upgraded to newer android version until recently. After bunch of reading I understand that:

* my X8, with the date of production is 11W48, cant be boodloader unlocked by normal tools (someone with the same phone had it unlocked with SETool2)

* upgrading options for me is custom ROM based on original kernel (correct me if I am wrong).

So after digging around, I have:

* rooted the phone (using SuperOneClick v 2.3.3)

* installed xRecovery (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=878426)

* installed CWM Recovery using xRecovery

* installed Froyo 2.2.1 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=964223)

While I am now quite excited that my phone is equipped with android 2.2 now, I want to have other advice/suggestion regarding their enormous experience with X8. Since my phone is not bootloader unlocked, please tell me which ROMs that I can flash without requirements of bootloader unlocked? If there is ROMs with android 3 or 4 (ICS) that would be excellent.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks for all of your suggestions. After searching, I have found some ROMs that might be working for me:

* GingerXperia 22, 24/24b

* GingerDX

* ICS

* FroyoPro

* CyangenMod

* LinuXperia

* hyperOid

* MIUI

Based on other comments, gingerxperia seems to have better benchmark than GingerDX, so I gave it the first try. Unfortunately gingerxperia 24b did not work for me: I was stuck at the rebooting loop with gingerxperia logo and startup animation. Maybe I did something wrong. It even deleted my CWM recovery, so the only choice for me was to use PCCompanion to repair the phone back to stock ROM.

After that, I gave GingerDX a try, and now I am playing with it. At least GingerDX is a big step up from Froyo 2.2.1. I will try other ROMs as well and will report back.

I did. I did before AND after flashing the ROM. When rebooting, it said something like you have to reintall recovery otherwise you would not be able to get to recovery again, and I did. I guess that step deleted my CWM. Then I rebooted and got stuck in the startup screen. Cant get to recovery anymore.

I believe I did something wrong - I am totally newbie for this. Anyway, I will give it a try later. For now GingerDX is working quite well for me.

OK, for some reasons I cant get my GingerDX to have overlock enable, so I gave gingerXperia the second try, and now it works! It is 2.3.7, and the benchmark for the default system (without any modification) is about 1600 compared with about 1300 of GingerDX.

So I just got my Galaxy Nexus from ebay. Only problem is that the seller sent the phone with a black berry usb cable. Can I still use this cable to root it, unlock bootloader, etc?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
USB cable is USB cable. If you plug it in and its recognized by the PC, you can use it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] consultant.ben:
My GNex doesn't even like the cable that came with my DX. I can charge from the wall with it, but nothing happens if I try to USB with it.

I would recommend getting a "real" cable.

lol @ this... I'd probably recommend a BlackBerry cable over a Samsung one :p .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dg4892:
Awesome, thanks everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] consultant.ben:
lol all you want, I cannot explain why the factory cable for my DX will charge my GNex from the wall, but will not allow my computer to see it.

Can you? :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Nope, high chance that a cable that old is worn out or defective. But saying that a BlackBerry cable isn't a "real cable" is hilarious.

I've had absolutely no issue using several HTC cables, HP Touchpad cable, or even the USB cable from my Logitech mouse to connect my phone to a PC or charge.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] consultant.ben:
Ok, I see what happened here. When I put real in quotes, I did not mean that the BB cable was junk, or that BB hardware (doubt they manufactured the cable though) is junk.

I should have said that I recommend getting the factory cable that comes with the GNex. That IS what any manufacturer recommends anyway.

Not sure how the old cable could be worn out though, because It works just fine for USB with the DX.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foosion:
Charging uses fewer wires in the cable than data uses.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] consultant.ben:
If this is true, then it means not all micro USB cables for our phones are created equal.

It would also lend credence to my suggestion to get the factory cable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foosion:
If you have any doubts about how the cables are wired, google: usb cable wiring.

It's just four wires and plugs at either end. Not very complicated.
