I am heading on a roadtrip for a few days and will not be able to deliever a review right away.

I wanted to post up for any questions and provide a link. I will put it through the paces on vacation and will write up a full review

Just use a back up from titanium it will put it back on your phone,,,, if you don't have one then flash a ics Rom install flash and titanium back up, back up flash, then install a jelly bean Rom and restore boom!!!! You got flash,,, truth is you don't really need flash since everyone pretty much uses html5

Is it possible to flash a ROM without erasing data? Because every time I try it gets stuck in a boot loop. And its a pain to reinstall all my apps even with Titanium backup. Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
sure you can. just dont come asking for help when something goes wrong. i would be more concerned as to why you are boot looping when erasing. how are you going about this?
[HTC Inspire 4G] charger04:
Well no when ever I don't select erase data in ROM Manager I end up in a boot loop after the new ROM is flashed. Like shown in this picture...View attachment 1206866
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
dont use rom manager. boot into cwm or 4ext and do it from there. rom manager has had issues in the past with this. should give you better results.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Teichopsia:
Dont do it from there. Manually wipe from recovery.

Wipe data, wipe dalvik and format all partition (except sd card).

Hello guys,

this week I installed the [ROM] [JUL 6] KingCobra3D-ICS 1.6 | 3.28.631.1 | 4.0.3 | SENSE 3.6/AOSP | AROMA ROM with the AOSP lockscreen.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1647674

The lockscreen has an option to unlock and to start the camera. Is it possible to add more functions? Like SMS oder phone.

The menu to change it from sense 3.0 is not available.

greetings,

MChief0815
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
I honestly was wondering the same thing when I was using that lockscreen.

I don't think there is a way to add more.

Do you have the AOSP settings? Maybe try playing around with it, and you should be able to find it.
[HTC EVO 3D] MChief0815:
Nope, I don't have any for the locking screen. Only for clock, toggles, battery and carrier labels. See picture:

The rest are normal settings and no app or anything. Strange.

Are there mods or anything that have the options?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screamworks:
Hi all,

So, recently I've come up to the one-year mark on the contract for my Galaxy S II, and with that comes the opportunity to end my contract. From that, I now have the chance to sell my I9100 if I desire, and with the money I've currently been offered for it, I could buy a new Galaxy Nexus outright. What I came to ask today was if anybody here has had any personal experience with both phones, and could weigh in on the topic? For me, the only things that make me slightly hesitant of the gNexus are the screen and the camera. By no means are either bad, but are they not so good, perhaps? For anyone who's used/owns a Galaxy Nexus, could you comment on it all?

I've got the next few days to make a decision, and would love to hear what anyone might have to say :angel:

In advance, thanks for your time.

screamworks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SachinShekhar:
I have experienced Galaxy Nexus as well as Galaxy S2. Both on ICS. Well, Galaxy Nexus gives better experience. It has vanilla ROM without horrible TouchWiz which makes a big difference, too. Plus, you'll get updates directly from Google without a big delay.

And, Jelly Bean makes Galaxy Nexus a super smooth device thanks to Project Butter. If I liked it with ICS, you'll like it more with Jelly Bean.

Interestingly, some users on this forum are reporting that Galaxy Nexus with Jelly Bean gives better experience than even Galaxy 'S3'.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screamworks:
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I've heard a lot to the same affect as well, Project Butter is simply amazing in the UX it delivers apparently. In terms of TouchWiz vs. AOSP, etc. and all that, I'd end up going with CyanogenMod anyway, so that's not much of an issue. But as you mentioned, the immediate updates and high amount of community support is probably the number one reason I'm considering the move. More over, I can't see the Galaxy S II dev. scene getting any better really. Most major devs. are moving on the the S III, etc., and all the proprietary code makes it a pain for the existing/remaining developers.

How would you compare the screen quality between the devices? The general consensus I've found is that that Galaxy Nexus is pretty great so long as you don't over-analyse it, or if it's on the lowest brightness setting? As with the camera, obviously megapixels are only a part of the case, so what're you thoughts on that situation?

screamworks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SachinShekhar:
When it comes to screen quality, I'd say Galaxy Nexus is better. Talking about specs, Nexus offers higher PPI and resolution. Don't go for marketing term "Plus" in S2. Yes, S2 provides better contrast ratio, but Nexus display looks more realistic.

When it comes to Cam, S2 clearly excels. But, Nexus is fine for normal use. You shouldn't care about it unless you print big photos with super high quality.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screamworks:
Really? I'm surprised honestly, though it does make sense that the added resolution of the Galaxy Nexus would prove a great fighting point. In terms of camera, I pretty much expected that. So you wouldn't say in any sense that the camera is bad though? 95% of all my shots are simply ones from out and about, so it's not like I need a miracle or anything.

screamworks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cretheus:
The camera is pretty decent considering it is only 5MP and seems to have a normal sized sensor for a phone camera. It'll look good if you don't expect some high-end DSLR camera quality. Considering all, I came from the S2 temporarily as a fill in until I have gotten my Galaxy Nexus last week and I would say it is an upgrade with Project Butter.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screamworks:
Awesome to hear. Project Butter is definitely a major selling point for me, so I'm glad to hear you say that. I'm all but sold now, and am only waiting to complete the sale of my I9100 first :angel:

If anyone else has any comments/info/tips or remarks they'd like to make, I'd be really interested in hearing them!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
I am currently using the latest RocketROM V7.

I wanna know... if I am to backup and restore a ROM with ClockworkMod Recovery... how should I do it?

I flash Abyss Kernel 4.2, reboot recovery (so I am in the CWM modified by Abyss), backup the ROM... and when I wanna restore, I do the same?

If that's the way to go, when I restore, I'll have Abyss Kernel 4.2, and not the one that the ROM has... Erm... Can somebody shed some light?

I'm asking because I'm aware of all this talk about the eMMC bug (and the fact that it actually exists), and since CWM formats the internal memory... it'd result in a hard brick, haha...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
if you backup on Abyss kernel you will be on Abyss kernel AFTER the restore, So ideally you should flash abyss BEFORE restoring, and then change the kernel AFTER (if you want to)

The brickbug is not to be taken lightly, Its a serious issue, so if you have to do things a certain way (I have a ritual for wiping lol) and it takes a little longer, So be it, at least you know you will be safe.......ish :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Hmm... so... forget about RocketROM for now.

Let's say I am on Half-Illusion, which has two kernels (optionally) : CM and AOKP.

-flash jBroid's Kernel Cleaning Script.

-flash Abyss 4.2 kernel.

-reboot recovery.

-backup.

When I restore, I do this :

-flash jBroid's Kernel Cleaning Script.

-flash Abyss 4.2 kernel.

-reboot recovery.

-restore.

-flash desired kernel.

You don't say :D . First time I heard about it and was about to wipe/flash for the first time, I was like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9KyBdPeKHg

What's your wiping ritual? Could it better than mine :P ? Hope it doesn't involve summoning a lightning strike or anything like that...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
HAHAHAAAA That video is epic, I can imagine you saying that lol, I too was like that.

And my ritual is similar to yours, Only for TW ROMs :p

Dont forget that your backup will be a GB ROM, so you cannot restore it if you venture on to TW ICS ROMs ! But im sure you knew that anyway !

Other than that, Your steps are spot on !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Erm... what? Lol, explain.

What do you mean it will be a GB ROM? You mean the KERNEL, right?

What do you mean I can't restore it if I venture on to TW ICS ROMs (like RocketROM, for example)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Actually, it was like this.

So I first hear about the brick bug. http://tinyurl.com/69cc7we http://tinyurl.com/buvmsep

I decide oh well, can't stick with stock ROM. http://tinyurl.com/2at2ad4

So I go on with the wiping / flashing process. http://tinyurl.com/bmoff37

And once it was all done... http://tinyurl.com/4h7lp8q
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
What I mean is, if your now on a gb rom such as cm9 or aokp And you create a nandroid backup, that backup is going to be a complete clone of your current set up. So you cannot restore that nandroid on a Samsung ics rom you can only restore it on a gb rom
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
I didn't know AOKP had GB builds, too...

Anyway. I know what a CWM backup is, I've been in the Android world since exactly 13 months.

What do you mean I can't restore that NANDROID on a Samsung ICS ROM? As far as I know, a CWM restore erases all the contents (system, data, cache) and restores the respective data from the backup... so it's not like it would OVERWRITE on the current TW ICS ROM, for example.

What I wanna know is... I can back up everything, except for the kernel (since I'd flash Abyss 4.2 w/ recovery), and when I restore, I flash the kernel manually. That's all there is to it... right?!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
When you are creating a backup...just drop into CWM and create backup. When restoring the backup you can flash the Abyss kernel first > reboot recovery > and then restore. So now when the restoring happens the kernel which was in your rom will automatically get restored and abyss will vanish once rebooted.

@azzledazzle CM9 is ICS and not a GB rom :) I know you know this and u just slipped your fingers while typing :p ...but just correcting so that no confusion arises to other readers :)

And if you are on any CM9 based rom or any AOKP based rom which is based on CM kernel then you dont require Abyss at all. Just forget about it when on any of the roms. :)

Hope this helps!

Cheers!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Yeah I know its an ICS ROM, But dont you have to be on GB to flash it ? What I mean is you cant flash it from Stock Samsung ICS can you? (thats how i understand it anyway)

And I didnt know CWM erases partitions, I thought it just overwritten the existing ones, Hence why I said dont restore a GB (AOSP ICS) on Samsung ICS (if that makes sense?)

But I guess ive learned something new from you :D Hopefully I can pass this new found knowledge onto someone else lol
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
Yeah you cant directly flash the CM9 or AOKP based on CM kernel directly over the Stock Samsung ICS. Its a sure shot brick you have in your hand if you do that. The stock ICS kernels cannot handle the "format" command in the updater script, CM is working on trying to use delete_recursive instead but still its not complete fixed. Hence you have to be on GB or on GB kernel (like Abyss) if you want to flash the CM9 based rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Oh... you're right, lol. Backing up doesn't format/wipe anything. Only restoring does :D .

But... the CWM I have right now (was flashed among with RocketROM) is a different version, non-touch-driven, than the CWM that is included in Abyss 4.2 kernel (touch-driven). Are backups compatible?

So... you're saying that both CM9 and AOKP kernels have the eMMC thing removed, so wiping data when using those kernels is safe?

-----

Thanks for joining, abhi :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Bottom line... Better flash Abyss 4.2 before any full wipe :D .

-----

This thing in the Samsung ICS kernels... this brick bug... Is Samsung aware of it? Is a fix on the way? Or nobody knows?

Or perhaps it's been made on purpose :)

-----

Retorical question : WHY POSTS NO LONGER MERGE? -.- :headbang:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
Hope the above helps!! In bold are the answers :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Yup. Thanks.

What I meant by "Are backups compatible" was... are backups made with the CWM that comes with RocketROM (not touch-driven) compatible with the CWM that is included in Abyss 4.2 (touch-driven)? I mean... can I restore the backups made with one CWM, using ANOTHER CWM?

I always forget their versions... :(

-----

They KNOW? Good. Oh well, they also know their SAMOLED screens suck, but didn't do anything to fix it... Let's hope they're gonna fix this brick bug soon; although it seems highly unlikely... I mean, we already got 4.0.4, and that didn't fix it. The next update is probably going to be JellyBean (if we even get that officially!), some 5+ months from now on :/

This brick bug is utmost retarded. I mean... on the Note, and recently, on the SGS2 as well... they're either stupid, either it was on purpose - to prevent at least some devs on working on those devices... :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
Yeah you can restore backup made with some other CWM while using another CWM. :)

So I'm receiving mine today. What's the best way to check for everything in the OP?

Mandated from Stannis Baratheon
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pxlitup:
For the screen lift, hold the device at eye level with the right portrait side closest to you. Look across the display and hold it so the left bezel is visible as a thin, silver line. If the display is flush, it will not interrupt that line. If the black cuts into the silver, you know that the adhesive on the left side of your display is starting to fail.

To check for dead/stuck pixels, download a dead pixel testing app and crank the brightness in a dark room. Close one eye and tilt the device back and forth near your face, scanning it while you cycle through the different colors. This is also a good time to check for bleeding.

I'm not sure about the best way to check the mic and speakers. Someone else should probably help you with that.

Good luck.

Also got a quite slightly raised screen on the left - if it'd hadn't been for the landscape/rotate issue I would have lived with it.

Emailed Google about it, so hopefully they reply quickly and get a replacement sorted out.
