[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spamcakes:
And you would test all this on a pc how?

It's so ridiculously easy to flash roms these days just flash some and try them out, if nothing bugs you about it tadaa, daily driver.

If you do things right you shouldn't need one, I'd say don't buy it till you need it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
I would, for 2 bucks you might as well, and then if anything goes wrong you don't have to wait to sort it. Having said that in 2 years of flashing and beta testing I have never needed one.Your choice, but flashing this device is simple if you do the necessary reading and follow the guides :)

I am attempting to do this...very hard to accomplish since my motherboard does not look the same as the one in their guide. I already am getting a new phone shipped to me but I figure this could be useful if anyone could learn how to do this. I searched for this particular resistor (r313) and found some other boards talking about this process and it seems like it works. I can't post a picture yet as I am a new member but I have my phone apart and am playing around with it. Does anyone have any idea where this resistor might be located?

I have noticed that the signed gapp packs for ICS differs from some Developers. I was comparing Owains and Hellfire's bundled app and noticed that the versions were not the same in some cases. Like the GoogleServicesFramework.apk and Phonesky.apk are different. For what reasons would these be different? One just simply has a newer update of the app, could these be modified for the specific build, does the difference in version have a negative affect on the operation of a ROM from another developer?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyansky_1:
Did I stump everyone on this one, or is this such a simple answer it did not warrant a response? :o
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
If I had to guess I'd say one of them is linking to an old version. Not a problem since if you install them you can just update them.
[HTC Rezound] metalmike6:
So I decided to try tablet mode just out of curiousity. I read that it makes non-sense launchers smoother. Well it does. For sure. Maybe not much but its enough to make go launcher Buttery smooth. So another thing I noticed is battery life? It increased? It could just be me but I find it odd that it was such a notocable difference. I'm sitting at 73% after a full days work in a building that barely gets reception. Usually by this point I have 50% left. So this left me wondering, could systemui have been poorly coded by HTC to the point where it drains a lot of battery? I know it seems ridiculous but I implore some one to try it before they say I'm crazy. Only because I may well be. Haha. So my question is, is there a way to get tablet mode to run on ics without forcing 192 dpi. Honestly the whole phone seems more usable and the quick settings I need are already in the stock ics notification bar. And whatever was missing I have in there using power controls a free app on the market. There must be some kind of edit to force tablet without going to 192 dpi.
[HTC Rezound] dalvear88:
That's what I'm talking about! Tablet mode has been my daily for the longest time and I agree that it definitly helps out with battery life and with smoothness of launchers (especially Apex!). Sadly there is no way just yet of getting the phone to run Tablet mode without forcing the DPI to 192. I know that the Galaxy nexus has their ways of doing it, I tried getting it to go myself and no luck so far. One thing I want to get working is the Pop-up screen when you connect to the PC.

How did you get that nice looking quick settings on the Notification Bar? I never tried to change it from the regular pop up selections
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
I've had nothing but problems trying to change my dpi. Anytime I go below 270 I have nothing but force closes. How did you get it working
[HTC Rezound] dalvear88:
Usually it depends on the App that you use to change the dpi, plus you need a launcher other than sense installed (you can have sense and something else like Go, ADW, or Apex.) I use the App call LCD Density Modder (Icon is a Monitor with a blue screen). Also It depends on the Rom that you are using as well. Some Rom's do not have the Icons in the SystemUI.APK to support Tablet Mode (Especially Sense 4 ROMS). As long as you meet all those steps you should be able to get it working with minimal problems. As stated above the only problem I run into is getting a force close when connecting phone to PC, the Pop-up that lets you select your connection mode doesnt work, you have to set your default connection type to whatever your going to use before connecting, and set it so it doesnt ask you what you want when connecting.

PM me if you need more help buddy
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
That's probably my problem. Trying it on sense 4... I'll boot up tonked Rom and see how it likes it. I'm actually using build prop editor and manually making the change
[HTC Rezound] dogswind:
I love having the on screen navigation in tablet mode, but that tiny text.. MY EYES. I wish we could dig around and get the on screen navigation ICS has by default on a Gnex. I know we lose screen real estate that way, but capacitive buttons suck.
[HTC Rezound] haliwa04:
Ummmmm, how do you get to tablet mode? I'm running team venoms latest release

From me to you with this Snake bitten cellular thing
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Change the dpi to 192. Careful though it doesn't play nice with sense
[HTC Rezound] dalvear88:
You cannot do this on any sense 4 based Rom. You need an ics sense 3.6 to be able to do it. Plus you MUST have a different launcher other than sense.

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

Correct lol, especially sense 4. Apex runs the best fyi ;)
[HTC Rezound] metalmike6:
Hey man sorry for the delay, So the notifications quick keys is an app called "power controls" it is free and it's honestly pretty great. if you check the settings of the app there is an option to have the power controls stay in your notification bar. go into the app from your launcher and put a check mark in the box for notification widget. then click the pin. then click the slider looking button and you can check off which buttons to add. Closest I've come to CM7 settings in drop down.

it uses the built in accessibility features of ics to do it. this and SlimRom or any variant is the closest I have been able to get to AOSP. throw that in with tablet mode and GO-SMS stripped of all their special features except themeing and you're pretty much there. I may try GoContacts as well but the last time I did (with my evo shift) it was laggy so I haven't bothered yet. Especially since this device as a whole is waaaay more laggy then my shift in every regard. I can't imagine it would play well.

Also for standard DPI the GoKeyboard is quite nice and responsive, much more so than AOSP. These are of course my personal feelings so it may just be perceived and not reality. I used to hate GODev stuff... but since getting this phone it's the only way to get what I want out of the UI. Even their launcher is shockingly smooth with 5 screens and APW scrolling widgets on 4.

I've been dealing with the small fonts. it's irritating but what can you do. Every view even down to the Gmail app is more useful to me in tab mode.
[HTC Rezound] dalvear88:
Thats amazing, i'm going to have to check out that app for myseslf. Thanks for the heads up though on that! Small fonts are easy to evercome, but only if the

Rom you are running Tablet Mode on has the Font Size in the Display settings. What does your app Drawer look like with Go Launcher? Is it regular size or does it put like 30 apps on 1 screen?
[HTC Rezound] metalmike6:
you have to set the launcher to have larger icons. Not "large" mind you. A custom larger amount. depends on your preference.... then change the icon spacing to a larger amount. I think I did 7 columns and 8 rows. For the record I couldn't find go sms in the app store so I downloaded it online somewhere just google gosms.apk it's a free app so this is not stealing. honestly I can't wait for AOSP. I would probably take it in it's unfinished form even (just 1x and wifi.)
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
Until today I was using HyperSensation 3.0, decided to try a new ROM and choose BADOSP V 1.1 to test. After back-up/wipe cache-dalvik/format all partitions/installing ROM/reboot. The phone booted normally until the lockscreen showed up, then, immediately shutted down. Powering on again was met with the same results.

I did the process of wiping, formating and installing again in case I forgot something, and again the same thing happened. I tried with another ROM, this time with ViperS 1.0.1, and I got the same thing, power off after the lockscreen shows for the first time. Before restoring the back up, I tried installing again HyperSensation 3.0 and it works... As a last resort I installed a gingerbread RUU to start totally stock, and again... power off in the same place...

I reinstalled 4ext, updated the firmware again to 3.33 and restored my back up to have a functional phone again, but I cannot understand why is this happening.

Can someone out there chime in and help me with this?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] imxsteezin:
Try to flash super wipe from android revolution install the Rom flash a custom kernel first then boot I had this problem but I couldnt flash any Rom w/o a bootloop or getting stuck at the HTC screen try flashing the sense o maniac Rom and overclocked kernel by Sebastian by the way that's what I did
[HTC Sensation] imxsteezin:
Also do you have 4ext recovery
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
Yes I have 4ext and I tried super wipe too, but didn't try with another kernel. I'll try your sugestion with the Sense o Maniac ROM. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] imxsteezin:
No problem let me know what happens
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Are you S-ON?
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
No, i'm S-Off.
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
I tried both Sense o Maniac latest versions, Sense 3.6 and 4.0, but neither of them worked... Any other ideas?
[HTC Sensation] imxsteezin:
You flashed the kernel right ? I just helped someone fix thiet phone with this method
[HTC Sensation] imxsteezin:
And did you flash the android revolution super wipe?
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
Yes, I flashed super wipe but forgot about the kernel part. I'll try that now. With what Sense o Maniac your solution worked, Sense 3.6 or 4.0?
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
I tried with both Sense ROMs. Super Wipe/Install ROM with everything stock/Flash Kernel/Reboot but that didn't work either.
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
Anyone have more ideas to know why this is happening? I'm lost... :confused:
[HTC Sensation] irrelephant:
Did you check the md5sum of the roms you are trying to flash?
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
Yes, I check them and they are correct.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
flash the rom again ..with wipe from 4EXT this time

4EXT -> wipe|format -> format all partitions except sdcard

then flash the new rom and see
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
I have tried that too... That's why it is weird... I have installed a few ROM's before and everything went fine... But this time it is like my phone doesn't want to get out of HyperSensation... :laugh:
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
reflash the firmware then if you are using 3.32 reflash it or update it to 3.33
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
I'm in 3.33 already... I even installed a gingerbread RUU to start from stock and the same thing happened.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
then the only culprit left is recovery ..

try reflashing it or ..update it to 1.0.0.5 RC (also can you check if you enabled smartflash (in 4EXT -> tools) ..coz that some times messes up for SOFF devices and make sure smartflash is disabled )
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
After the RUU I reflashed that version of 4EXT, and thinking it could help I enabled smartflash, but it got worst, so I disable it.

Then, I tried again but got the same results...
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
hmm when you enable smartflash ..disabling it immediately wont do ..you need to reboot to recovery again then flash the rom ..smartflash on SOFF devices works pretty weird
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
I'm sorry my post left the impression that i made those step one after the other. The thing is, I disabled it because it won't even let me flash correctly HyperSensation, the only ROM I can use, and left my phone doing bootloops.

Right now, I'm back on that ROM with everything working fine. The problem arise only if I tried to flash other ROMs.
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
As an update of my situation... I tried with a bunch of ROM's and got the same problem everytime until I flashed Supreme Blu by Team Inferno, another AOKP based ROM as HyperSensation, the other ROM that currently works on my phone. I don't know why only those two ROM's can be flashed and no other can't... Any other ideas?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
just once more .. reflash the recovery again ..then do a complete wipe and flash some other rom and see
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
Before doing that again, let me share this thing I noticed...

Just now, I flashed Android Revolution HD 6.7.1 ICS 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 + Beats Audio... First with stock kernel and nothing. Then with Sebastian kernel, same result. And lastly with faux kernel and it booted fine... HyperSensation runs too with faux kernel...

Every other ROM I tried use another kernel... Maybe that's the problem...
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
your situation is pretty weird !!!

kernel causing the issue ?? that's the weird part ..may be a logcat would help ..at-least you found a good solution to run custom roms (faux kernel)
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
I know is weird... I still don't know why this is happening... But I'm sure it have something to do with faux kernel... With that knowledge, I made a backup of my last ROM working, Android Revolution, full wipe, flashed Venom 1.0.1, it have bricked kernel, reboot, the same thing happened again, but... I entered recovery, flashed faux kernel, and now it works...

Maybe faux possessed my phone... Hahahaha!

Funny thing is Venom doesn't work with faux kernel... it gives a Wi-Fi error... But at least I know I can try other ROM's flashing faux afterwards...
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
faux released a latest version of his kernel 008b8 which works with viper i've been using it for past few days :D check the last posts of his kernel thread
[HTC Sensation] Daeox:
Thanks for the suggestion. Funny thing is, earlier today I was lurking that thread and completely missed that post. I exposed my case over there to see if someone had encounter my problem before. I was trying their suggestions when you posted this. Just flashed the kernel and it is working great.

Someone over there suggested wiping and reformatting the SDCARD, but is late over here, I'm tired and your suggestion worked... So, I'm not pressed to try that right now, but I'll get to it... This kernel thing isn't normal so I'll try to get to the bottom of this.

Thanks a lot for keeping up with my situation...
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
ahh ..SD wipe is really a good suggestion (it can very well cause some weird issues like yours) ...backup the complete sdcard ..then wipe and try flashing another kernel ..might work (coz that is the only area we haven't touched)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djp952:
Apologies if this has been posted before, but I've found a very simple way to enable to AOSP Rotation Lock control for the Galaxy Nexus on Jelly Bean 4.1.1. By default, that highly useful control is only enabled if the device has a minimum width (or length) of 3.75" (DP >= 600), but in reality it fits just fine on much smaller devices like ours.

All you have to do is edit the isRotationLockToggleSupported() function in frameworks/base/core/java/com/android/internal/view/RotationPolicy.java to allow this control to display on smaller devices. I suggest a DP >= 360, which not surprisingly happens to match the GNex.

You can view my edit here: https://github.com/djp952/sch-i515-...mmit/dc8598f75f84c57c92b8a8920606ffb695ef10cb

Or ... you can just open that file and edit line 49 to read ">=" 360 instead of ">= 600" and rebuild. I can't find any reason that the control should not be included on any phone device with a screen > 2.25" wide as it's very useful and will not get in the way of anything else.

Is it only possible to compile it from source? Or can I use apktool to decompile and modify framework-res.apk for this?

The point is that I'm running stock ROM but would really like this rotation-lock-toggle as a MOD. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djp952:
It enables a feature in JB that tablets use called the Rotation Lock. It sits up in the main drop-down between the date and the settings button. Instead of having to turn on and off rotation to keep the device orientation in place, you can just lock it with this control. It also removes the option from display settings (but not accessibility). I think it's extremely useful and don't know why it's not enabled by default for any device that has enough real estate to show it.

Screen shot attached. This is my phone and it's currently locked in portrait mode. If you press it, the lock changes to a little phone and normal rotation rules apply
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djp952:
You could use apktool, but you'd have to edit the RotationPolicy.smali file in SystemUI.apk. The 600 was a constant, it's likely going to stick out and be easy to find in the .smali.

I think mods to SystemUI are going to be commonplace now, the battery icons and xml descriptors are in that APK as well. Not sure if that's new for JB or if ICS also did it that way, I haven't modded anything since GB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FaithCry:
just checked systemUI smali, theres isn't a file called RotationPolicy, closest thing is RotationToggle.smali and there is no 600 constant :(

i'm on GSM Bigxies build, just a side note.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djp952:
Oh yeah, duh, it's not in SystemUI. Hadn't had my coffee yet. Check android.policy.jar, otherwise I can look to find out where that class goes. Sorry!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FaithCry:
no worries! i'll probably look into source later, i think everyone should learn how to at least compile from source, its a very useful tool! :)

I'm trying to put this mod into XenonHD but running into a wall. The github link is down and I tried flashing both zips in this thread one wouldn't flash through clockworkMod and the other caused the phone to hang at the boot animation.

I did some testing and the zip file does work on the JRO03C stock ROM. Thus leads me to believe that any ROM that allows customization of the notification shade is where the issue may be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FaithCry:
It's actually in the framework.jar in the android folder I believe. I'm not at a computer right now but if I remember correctly the file to modify is rotationpolicy.xml. change the value from 0x258 to 0x168 I believe and then save and recompile and push to the /system/framework/folder and you should be good to go.

OK I've decompiled and opened the classes.dex files in android.policy.jar franework.jar and framework2.jar and could not find "const/16 v1, 0x258" in any of them. Am I missing something from the past posts in this thread?
