[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
Which cm rom exactly? I thought the camera works with all the cm roms. It sounds like you still have kernel issues, and until you figure out how to flash a kernel or boot image, you'll always have these types of issues, bootloop, broken WiFi/camera. I know that the instructions that flonker gave you are intimidating but after you've done it once you'll see how simple it is.

One limitation of HTC dev unlocking is that you can't write to the boot partition from recovery, the kernel resides in the boot partition. You can, however, write to boot from within the android system. That's why flash image GUI is so handy for people with s-on and HTC dev unlocked. Just open the app, find the rom you'd like to flash and select it, the GUI will extract the kernel from the rom zip and flash it. Then you just boot into recovery and flash the same rom that you selected with the GUI. It'll flash everything but the boot image, but that's ok because you already flashed the kernel with flash image GUI. Make sure you do a factory reset and wipe the dalvik cache.

When I was s-on I always chose fastbooting to recovery, when you do that it actually loads the recovery onto the boot partition and gives you permission to write to boot, so its like flashing should be. Just wipe, flash, enjoy.

Hope this helps.
[HTC EVO 3D] flukeSG2:
I have been flashing roms and kernels and such for awhile on several different phones and literally almost everything you said makes no sense and that goes for the other guy 2 posts above yours. WTF is flash image GUI? Is that an app, you never even say.

The other guy is telling him to flash a rom but describes to him how to flash a recovery image to his phone...have you guys ever done this before or are you just making stuff up as you go?
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Those guys probably don't even have EVO 3D's anymore. Do you read dates before posting? Threads a year old :screwy:
[HTC EVO 3D] flukeSG2:
Yes I do, I was looking for information and I read the entire thread. Just because they posted it a year ago doesn't make the info any less wrong.
[General Questions and Answers] thepandoras:
EL FIRST POSTIABLO.

I know a little bit about programming (Introductory Python and Visual Basic), and I'm wondering if someone can give me a good bit of information regarding how to create a specific modification to my Galaxy S3.

I want to create an application or a settings modification that will allow me to do two things:

1. I want the phone to skip to the next track (Whether it's in Spotify or the default music player) when the volume button is held down for three seconds, and to go to the previous track/restart the song when the volume up button is held for three seconds.

2. Create a setting or GUI interface to edit the time and maybe function of the new volume hotkey.

Is this an application I can create and put on the Marketplace to download or is this something I have to root my phone to do?

Is this even possible with the default permissions? What programming languages does this require?

I intend on doing all of the work and learning myself, I'm sure there is an alternatie already.

I bow down to you, XDA gods. I hope this isn't in the wrong place!

I tried it a few months ago, not only a few bugs and not that it wasn't very practical. LG, S3, Nova, and CM9 launcher are much better!!!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] izzibew26:
It definately doesnt showcase the capabilities of the device but the idea is solid, guess it depends what you use your phone for, if youre not a social networking person might not be for you until its customizable and better looking/acting.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Sunsparc:
Modified APKs existed for AOSP ICS ROMs on the Epic 4G Touch and some devs (like Calk) had Exchange Policy enforcement removed in their ROM.

Is there any way to do this on the GS3? I have two work emails that I would really like to not have a pin number for, rather a pattern.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] crystalstylez:
Follow the steps here. I did this and it works like a charm. Though I'm not too fond of the Email APK in touchwiz; it gets the job done.

You must have ADB Access

You Must Have Java SE JRE v6 or7

You Must Be Rooted

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dilxadon:
Hi.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but it's almost always recommended and required to do a data wipe after a ROM updates. Everybody seems like this process is normal and not a hassle.

I use AOKP (installed M6 today) on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus (toro).

I use Titanium Backup to restore my phone to the state where I left as right before the ROM update flash.

There are, however, some problems I've encountered and I was wondering if anyone could help me.

1. Using "restore app + data" only restores the app and the data cannot be recovered. I need to manually select "restore app data only" and it for the most of the time works fine. Am I doing something wrong?

2. I have about 80 apps and it asks me to confirm every time it tries to restore apps. I need to click "Install" and "Done" to restore one app. This process takes an hour. Are there any way to disable this confirmation prompt?

3. During the restore process, on the confirmation prompt for installing an app, if I press "cancel" instead of "install" Titanium Backup does not know what to do and does not move onto the next app to restore. The restore process basically gets stuck there. Does anybody know the cause of this?

Is restoring process supposed to be this much of a hassle? How do you guys do yours? Please let me know!

Thank you in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wolfbeef123:
*sigh*

It takes forever but that's how I do it. Of course I don't have 80 apps. But there should be an option to restore all missing apps and data.

But besides that, you have to click install and done for every app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dilxadon:
That is... very unfortunate.

That's the option I use. It restores apps, but for some reason it NEVER restores data.

This is why I have to manually restore app data. It's pain in the ass.... Does it do to yours?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wolfbeef123:
On mine it restores both. Then it says I should reboot and I do, and all my messages and stuff is back to before.

I kinda stopped using titanium ever since I sold my epic 4g lol. I only used it not to loose my progress on plants vs zombies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dilxadon:
Oh what do you use to restore your apps and data these days?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wolfbeef123:
I use nothing at all.

Pretty much Google automatically downloads my apps after every flash.

I start fresh on the data.

But as far as I know titanium is the best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gpfnzl:
I use Titanium back up to restore apps and a few system settings. To do as many as you are doing use *batch* mode.

open Titanium>select Backup/restore tab>select the check mark (top right hand corner, between the search icon and the menu button icon. The check button maybe greyed out but is operational)

you can now select "Backup all user apps" by selecting the run button next to it. This will open a list of all user apps, make sure all the apps you want to backup are selected. Obviously deselect the ones you don't want > to run the batch operation select the green check icon in the top right hand corner.

Once backup completes go back and select "Back up all system data" and do the same.

10mins at most.

There is an option to "Backup all user apps + system data" that will make it a bit quicker.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JimSmith94:
I'm pretty sure you have to use the purchased version of Titanium Backup to do a batch restore without doing them one at a time. When you select restore apps, there's also an check box to restore data too, but I don't know if that's only in the purchased version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dilxadon:
Batch process is supported in the free version. From what I can assume the problem is with Android.

Every time Titanium Backup tries to restore an app by installing it, the phone asks if I want to really install it. I know this feature is part of Android, but having 80 apps this is a very painful process.

I was wondering if I can turn that prompt of at my own risk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Txwolf1980:
Batch is supported in the free version. But, if you get the paid version, that will negate all of the "install" and "done" prompts. It will install automatically, as soon as you activate the batch operation. As for why it's not able to restore data, I'm not sure.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamersrevenge:
So in this thread I mentioned AT&T shipped a replacement phone because I was dealing with a random shutoff issue. I assumed they'd send me a retail box phone and I'd just send my old phone with the other accessories back... They sent me just the phone and SIM, so I had to use my battery and battery cover. I was messing around with the new cappy for awhile and *bam!* shuts off too.. Sure enough I looked at the battery and it appears to have swollen just a little... Anyway, new battery is en route but the stock Gingerbread (2.3.5) SUCKS, to put it nicely. I've had my Froyo based captivate up to ICS before and it wasn't too bad to do, but from what I've read and tried the GB phones can be a bit trickier initially, plus things have changed quite a bit since I first flashed the other phone back around August. Is it possible to downgrade the captivate to a Froyo ROM/bootloader and root/flash it from there? My ultimate goal is to get it rooted (of course) and flash SlimICS on it. That's my favorite ROM due to zero bloatware and minimalistic simplicity and it's pretty snappy on the older phone. Any suggestions? I've been researching but you can only go so far with guides and I don't want to brick this phone or spend hours throwing hacks at it that have no effect. I'm not a total noob but am very cautious, since I'm not confident I can recover from a disaster.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamersrevenge:
I'll check that out. Thanks... and It helps if I paid attention... I completely overlooked it.. lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamersrevenge:
Awesome.. I followed that guide and managed to get SlimICS flashed to it (mostly) painlessly. The only issue I had was I forgot about flashing the base twice, once for the kernel and second for the ROM itself, resulting in a reboot loop but I quickly figured it out after googling and followed the steps to get it back up and running. Helpful people and cool ROMs is why I love XDA. :)

I try to find something stable I like and stick with it unless there's major improvements or bug fixes.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Should't flash this then... It's good but not life or death good.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] FSUSeminole:
Thanks. I've just found that the AOKP ICS Milestone 6 for the GS3 is a lot less stable than the build for my old phone the Hercules (GS2)... So I'm kinda chomping at the bit to move to the ROM that they're actively working on... But not until it is at least as stable as the ICS counterpart. If that made any sense. :laugh:

I've actually had my data stop working a couple times on this ROM, and it seems to do it with no rhyme or reason. Toggling airplane mode on/off brings data back... But when that happens I stop getting emails, and that is a really big deal. So I'm considering going with a *gasp* Touchwiz ROM until things are more stable with the JB AOKP builds... so that's why I was asking what works and what doesn't. ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 12paq:
Absolutely understandable!

I am running AOKP JB Aug 5. It is a very functioning rom, I would dare say more developed then M6. I made a nandroid of stock, so I can go back when needed. Yet I am finding JB AOKP steller!

The data speeds are slightly lower, as seen in CM10, no nav bar (no biggie). Phone and interface are very functional. Vibration is still whacky at times, but better. It seems great care was taken to leave features out that do not work well.

Considering the importance of your job, I would never hazard advice on this rom, but if you want anymore in depth detail, send me a pm. I would be glad to help out.

:)

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] playya:
with all that said you have to remember that what works for one may not work for another. That at the end of the day the only way to truly test the rom to see if it meets your daily needs and desire is to test it yourself. One persons likes or dislikes and bugs may not be yours.

Sorry I have been in these forums to know not to put my all into the results of others but to try and test things for myself. I do understand you have time restraints but like mentioned prior that someone in your position should simply use stock and not tempt fate.

I hope he is able to help you and you achieve your goal if not I guess you gonna have to stay up late and test in the middle of the night like the rest of us :D

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Slurpee7600:
It looks like you have a modified build.prop which says your phone is an HTC_jewel which is why you're getting an error because the updater script is checking to make sure you have the right phone.

Did you change it or flash a mod to get Google wallet to work because that is the most likely reason your phone says HTC_jewel? You should be able to flash another from to fix your build.prop and then flash this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
