Well, I think it depends on how you use your phone. For me at least, JuiceDefender has helped out TREMENDOUSLY. I live in an area with bad reception and I'm constantly going in and out of roaming. Having all my data turned off while I'm not using the phone really helps boost my battery life (and not having to do so manually is worth the $5 in my opinion).

Without JD I'm at about 10-15% when I get home from work (10 hr work days). With JD I'm at about 30% when I get home.

I guess everyone's mileage may vary, but if you've already bought JD you might as well try and see if it helps your battery life.

side note: I also love the night tint in JD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Citizen Snips:
I've actually got a couple of questions with this ROM.

First, though, I have to say this is a phenomenal ROM. I initially flashed it solely as a stop-gap while waiting for CM10 to come out for my Sprint GSIII, but it quickly has become my daily driver.

So with the installer on the 0.0.7 version, there are multiple radios. Is there any advantage in flashing one of those, or just leaving it be? Also I really like the CRT animations and beats audio, but it wasn't there in the 0.0.7 version, so I just went with 0.0.6. Is there a way to get it on the 0.0.7 version or have those features been disabled? I went off the video review on youtube, linked but for some reason, on my version, little to no features were on mine compared to the review video. Is there a way to enable them on the newest version? Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aiguofer:
It got lost on the main thread, but awesome beats will be back in .8 (he forgot to put it in .7) and crt was broken by Samsung
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] clark44:
Nice thread you guys have going on here :D

As for themeing. Let me explain how im going to have this system setup at latest by v0.0.9.

I've done some research and finally found an app that will do the following:

1. Notify when update is available

2. Allow user to download themes, bootanimations, apps, flashables, all within the app and all supplied by me.

3. Allow the user to read the changelog of upcoming buids on the go.

The link to this app is here

Now i already started migrating the boot animation option i already finished in Aroma installer into this app and that should be done very soon. Themers will also be able to send me whatever they make and i can make it an option in the app!

This will benefit us in the following:

1. Aroma installer stays and installs kernels, modems, and mods

2. ROM size doesn't go up to 2GB when i add in all the themes ect. (Size will always be around 860)

3. Users can change their theme and UI mods on the go without having to reinstall the ROM.

I'm trying to make customization available without having to reinstall the entire ROM. This will give us the best of both worlds.

I'm working on this as we speak so I might dissapear from XDA for a little bit while i stay on my train of thought :p But in spite of everything...this is going to get a whole lot better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Nice.. I am digging it... Like your thinking! :D:D:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Citizen Snips:
Will CRT return in the 0.0.8 release? Also what is the deal with all the different types of radios in the aroma installer?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
No on CRT, see back a page or two with a draft of the mods in next release.

The radio's are the different modems you can choose, there have been three releases (updates) and the original that came with the phone. That is what the radios are.

Radio=baseband=modem

:cool::cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Citizen Snips:
Are there any advantages/disadvantages in flashing a different modem to the phone? It seems to be a consensus that LF9 gives better signal, but I'm afraid for the drawbacks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dave607:

I'm trying to learn more about ROM development and have run into a snag receiving MMS using MIUI stock app.

I'm basically porting a customized MIUI GB ROM. I'm using swiperrat's 2.3.2 as a reference since it's super stable. I can send MMS on the stock app but can't receive. I can receive on GoSMS.

- I tried swapping out the MMS.apk from swipers build with the one I'm porting but that didn't work.

- I verified that my build.prop is the correct.

- I also decompiled framework.jar for both the custom ROM and swipers and looked in com/android/interal/telephony/cdma/ but those files look identical in each build.

Anything else I could try? I've searched for hours and come up with no good solutions.

depend on soc and manufacture/vendor. my allwinner a10 based tablet already have cm9 build from source. thanks to released (or maybe leaked) source code. good thing about chinese android product is as long as they using same soc (especially from chinese manufacture), they have small variation between model. so, rom from one model interchangeable to other model only with small modification. cm9 build from christian troy even support 20+ model.

the drawback off course build quality. but the price is so cheap. if it's broken i still can buy another one and still cheaper than buy something like galaxy tab.

Not necessarily, but you could unlock the bootloader and flash a custom kernel, mainly just to use over or under-clocking, and scripts for performance while saving battery, while staying on stock firmware.

Yes there is. . . But if you are not a heavy gamer or WiFi user then I thing the battery life with stock Rom is sufficient for you. . . It lasts a day. . .

Should I go for the tab for taking notes mainly or should I stick to my GNote?

You can use any capacitive stylus but your Note's stylus won't work because it is essentially a digitizer.

If you search for "the verge stylus roundup", they have a nice list of styli reviewed.

[Kindle Fire General] klukoff:
Amazon restricts the apps you can install on your Kindle Fire. But what if you want to get apps from outside the Amazon Appstore?

Here’s an easy 3-step solution, with NO root and NO file manager required. Sideload from thousands of free apps directly to your Kindle Fire!

Step 1:

On your Kindle Fire, go to: Settings > More > Device> Allow Installation of Applications. (Turn this ON and click “OK”)

Note: Settings is the gear icon in the top right of the screen.

Step 2:

On your computer, download and install SnapPea for Windows: www.snappea.com SnapPea is the easiest way to manage your Kindle Fire from the desktop!

Step 3:

Use a Micro-USB cable to connect your Kindle Fire to your computer. Open SnapPea for Windows and it’ll automatically connect to your phone and install the SnapPea app on your Kindle (so that you can start side-loading apps). You’re all set!

START INSTALLING APPS!

1) Go to: Download > Apps and download from thousands of free apps from 1Mobile. There are no geographic restrictions and all apps are 100% free.

2) Go to: My Phone > Apps and “+Install Apps” to load APK files directly onto your Kindle Fire.
[Kindle Fire General] jji7skyline:
Seems cool, but I have the Play Store installed :p
[Kindle Fire General] klukoff:
It's XDA, so figures that there are many savvy users are rooted with Play Store installed :)

SnapPea's is a good option for those who:

1) Want a simple way to install 3rd party apps without rooting;

2) Or want to be able to initiate downloads (apps, videos, etc.) from the desktop.
[Kindle Fire General] Starzie:
Nice. I Normally just find the apk > Put it in my dropbox > download it on the fire > install it. This seems nicer.

Solution for Fire 2nd Gen

Thanks for the tip! I had never heard of SnapPea, but it's sure worked out nicely for my 2nd generation Kindle Fire. Eventually I'll root the thing and install Play, but for now I'm waiting until the developers come up with ways to unbrick in case I mess things up. I have to use SnapPea over wifi cuz it doesn't support usb yet, but it's working out pretty nicely.

USB Debugging on Kindle?

I have a Kindle in a worse situation: in Brazil. Which means that without a US-based credit card I can't even get the free apps from Amazon. I'm also avoiding rooting the device as I've just upgraded to Windows 8 and think this could pose a problem.

That's why your post title made me so glad...but for minutes only. As it turns out, Snappea does recognize my device as ¨Amazon Android Device¨. However, when trying to connect to it, the program asks me to enable USB debugging and even shows how to do it in Androids 3.2 and 4.0.

Of course Kindle does not allow any development configuration and I can't connect through Wi-Fi either, as there is no way to install the app in the device.

Can anybody help me on this?

Kindle Fire is running System Version 10.2.1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: Just found it under ¨Security > Enable ADB

But now the program tells me to Try another USB connection mode because it detects a driver conflict.

Any ideas?

Isnt this a glorified way of side loading apps?

You can do this without a PC.
[Kindle Fire General] pLiDeX:
Hi, I'm from Uruguay, I have Windows 8 Pro 64 bits and I had (almost) no problem rooting and flashing AOKP JellyBean to my brother's Kindle Fire, the trickiest part was figuring out how to disable the need for digitally signed drivers, this is how you do it:

-From the Metro Start Screen, open Settings (move your mouse to the bottom-right-corner of the screen and wait for the pop-out bar to appear, then click the Gear icon).

-Click ‘More PC Settings’.

-Click ‘General’.

-Scroll down, and click ‘Restart now’ under ‘Advanced startup’.

-Wait a bit.

-Click ‘Troubleshoot’.

-Click ‘Advanced Options’

-Click ‘Windows Startup Settings’

-Click Restart.

-When your computer restarts, select ‘Disable driver signature enforcement‘ from the list.

You can now load your modified driver. Reboot again once the driver is installed and all will be well.

And if you still don't want to do that, there is a way to get apps from the amazon store without a US credit card

In order to download anything from the Amazon Appstore (even the free apps) you need to enable 1-Click settings on your Amazon account and set a US credit card and billing address. Provided you only want to download free apps you can use any valid US address and a test credit card number.

Expiration Date has to be a valid date in the future (use the mm/yy format). Also make sure to use a US address (just Google for one, but make sure you don’t ship any purchases to this address)

American Express

371449635398431

American Express Corporate

378734493671000

Discover

6011111111111117

JCB

3530111333300000

MasterCard

5555555555554444

Visa

4111111111111111

If you want paid apps you can load your Amazon account with a gift card that you can purchase in Amazon with an international credit card. Any purchases should then use the gift card balance instead of trying to charge the non-working US credit card.

Hi. I am in India and got an unlocked Glide from US via Ebay. The phone was in the box with all accessories and is the 2.3.6 AT&T stock rom. No mods yet. Setup, synced everything, and it worked fine.

When I call one specific number the phone force closes the dialer, loses network and it shows a null imei. If I switch off, remove battery & sim and reinsert and start, it works fine... till I call that number again and the same thing happens. Incoming call from that number give generally disconnect only the network and the phone is back online after a couple of mins without restarting. It even disconnects the social hub and FB, etc. if I go to the contact and explore that area.

Just to be sure, I did a factory reset and tried again. Nothing else has given me any problems so far (not tried the GPS) and I was using the phone for 2-3 days. No problem with any other numbers. Tried calling with and without the country code with the same problem. SMS to the number works.
