[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheeWolf:
Hi everyone,

I'm using ICS333 ROM.

Yesterday I installed an app (it was XMBC for android), and it gave me an FC. So I restarted hoping that will fix it.

What it did was getting me stuck at ROM boot animation. I managed to reflash the ROM and it worked, but then, downloaded that app again (thought that maybe it did not work because I changed my DPI). I then tried to reflash the ROM again but this time the phone did not boot.

I tried flashing Devil kernel and using the Aroma file manager to delete the app's apk from the folder /data/app but this did not work.

Fourtently I had a nandroid backup which I restored, though I wanted to avoid it because it was somewhat old.

What I wanted to ask is, if there was something else I could have done, so that if it happens again I would be smarter in the future.

Thank you.

I forgot to mention - I also tried accessing safe mode but without success. Has anyone succeeded in going into safe mode in ICS?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titanshadow:
I have a 7" Galaxy Tab 2 and my understanding was that it has a Gig of RAM, but all my task management apps report a max of just under 700 megs of RAM. I know some is probably locked and reserved for the system but that seems like a lot... Anyone know where the rest has gone?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
As you said, it's reserved for system, but if you find too much RAM used, you can click the clear memory button in task manager.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
I was wondering the same thing for awhile I thought it was an issue with my tab because on stock my performance was vile compared to how I thought it should perform. Rooted it and flashed today and there is definately an improvement in my benchmarks.:D
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PickledJaW:
That sounds about right to me. The default system on a lot of devices uses more RAM than you would think. Flashing to a custom rom will definitely help with that. I flashed mine to CM9 last night and I noticed a big difference in performance. I like it even more now.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batkinson001:
I think this is a common thing for all things stock android... my JB (4.1.1) Galaxy Nexus phone (takju build) does the same thing... quite annoying really.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohamedselim:
1gbyte but as i know the kernel reserves some memory for system use

Sent from Galaxy S2 or Galaxy Tab2
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnuts:
What's the difference if it doesn't show you system reserved RAM, or it shows it to you, but it's always fully used?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batkinson001:
it would be nice if they would put a notification or something to indicate this in the menu area as most will not know where their ram went & probably complain about false advertising or something.

This app is pretty amazing for anyone who goes to a theater to see a movie...I use it every time I go...if I have to pee or if the wife wants something to eat it becomes useful....not well known at all so figured I would share... even if you go once in a blue moon its a small app that is useful for any movie...

[General Topics] KidCarter93:
First of all, there's been a hell of a lot of threads being made for a while now asking 'What phone to get' or 'S3 vs One X' for example and now there's more and more being made daily and there's just too many now.

That's where the idea for this threads comes into place. Any questions you wanna ask about comparing phones before you buy them, ask them in here.

There's 2 main good points about this -

1. Someone else in here could've already asked about phones that you wanted to compare. If so, you can read the answer and that way you've found out exactly what you wanted without typing a single thing or having to wait for a reply. And...

2. It will stop what will inevitably be more posts all regarding the same thing, from littering the forum. And any that are posted outside of this thread can be directed straight to here where their answer could already be awaiting them.

Simple as that!
[General Topics] _Variable:
Agreed, But really, Popular and repetitive comparisons like the S3 vs ONE X is easily googleable now, If not websites, Other android forums might have discussed that before.

But yeah, Both the popular and unpopular phone comparisons need only one thread, Even the tablet ones, They are multiplying now.

Also, In that way, Someone with a similar phone comparison (popular or not) as yours will be easier to find and you will be able to choose carefully without turning the general forums into a "What phone to buy" forums.

Oh and BTW, Can you make one for the "My phone is bricked/laggy/(insert problem here)" threads?
[General Topics] KidCarter93:
I just used the S3 vs One X as an example really, but yeah I totally agree that google has it covered and youtube is full of videos for the high end phones against each other.

The aim is to make this easier for people anyway so hopefully it works. I PMd orb3000 just after I made this to see if he'd consider making it a sticky. Not sure if he will or not, but that'll then make it even easier to be honest.

And I already think there's a thread for that. I could be wrong but I think I saw one a while back. I'll have a look around and then if not, I'll make one either later today or tomorrow. It all depends on how busy I am :)

While the Kindle Fire does not have a USB port, there are dongle's like this one that convert Micro USB to regular USB which in theory should allow for support of USB devices. My question is USB storage supported on the Fire?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jji7skyline:
Hm, at would depend on whether or not that cable is an otg host cable. If it is, the wring is slightly different, which tells the fire to go into mastemode rather than the usual slave mode.

Another thing is that the software needs to support it. I'm pretty sure the stock ROM does not have this feature, however a great little ROM called GedeROM does have limited support. There have been reported cases of external storage working, however some drives refuse to work. Do some googling and find a drive that does work and buy that one, if you haven't bought one already.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SOMFW:
Here is a simple solution that actually works for increasing the Ringtone Volume part of the Problem facing the Jelly bean GNex.

Since it's fairly clear, none of the apps increase the dismal Ringtone volume on Jelly Bean or ICS for that matter, I took a simpler more direct route. Using the RingTone maker app, I opened the Ringtone I wanted, Increased the Volume by +3 (They let you go to 5 but it is to distorted for my tastes) and Viola! A ringtone, easily twice as loud and one that I can hear when the phone is in my pants pocket, even on the City streets. Problem Solved!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BackInA88:
May I ask with one?

There are a lot of Ringtone Maker apps.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
http://db.tt/tWto1g0U

download to computer. Extract with 7zip. move entire media folder to sd. Replace/merge current media folder. Might get a warning saying unable to play some files. Ignore as they work. possible doubles on some files. They're loud! Quite a selection.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SOMFW:
I use the old RingDroid Copy called "RingTone Maker "By Big Bang inc. But any that will allow you to increase the volume then resave as a new file in less then 5 seconds shouls suffice

Anyone have a suggestion for an App (like volume+) for stock people who used to rely on it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
that ringtone file works on stock. Doesn't go to system.

the file is almost 80mb. has a ton. Don't know if you like actual songs or just sounds but it has all Android tones and extras.

*Shaolin Shadowboxing *
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SOMFW:
Stock what? Gnex? ICS? JB?

I have tried dozens of volume / EQ apps on my Stock Gnex with jelly Bean - NONE work. If your issue is Ringtone and Notification volume, Increasing the Volume through a Ring tone maker will work 100% on any Android phone ever made. For Just music and ONLY using the Google Music Player, Turning on the built in EQ and using an upside down "V" shape with the sliders from Left to Right in these positions - Left center at just over 0db , 2nd slider just over Half way between max and 0db, Center slider maxed out, 4th slider just below max and the 5th slider the same as the 2nd. You will get an almost 100% volume increase, just in the Music player, with almost no added distortion.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimistixx:
I assumed I didn't have to specify Gnex & JB as the thread is in a nexus forum that has Jellybean in the title. :)

Thanks for the multiple suggestions!

I was wondering if any of the other general volume apps still worked on stock after the upgrade, thanks for sharing your experience.

I know there's a million fixes for rooted user , but I am hoping someone comes up with a stock fix (a la Volume+, SA Equalizer, ect. pre-JB)

[Acer Iconia A500] maris__:
You can't do anything but contacting the kernel developers and ask them for changing the kernel image for you. However, I doubt they'll do that. You are using their kernel for free, which is presumably the best available for the A500; to my opinion, it is a matter of politeness to accept that they want to document the use of their kernel by means of a kernel image, which is visible only during boot up.

WIth best regards, maris
