I came from an Atrix 2 with about 2 months of iOS usage in between. I'm currently stock 4.0.3 rooted with Cherrypicker V 3.1. I was wondering what some people considers to be the better ROM or combination of different mods. I helped a lot and became a senior member from the Atrix 2 thread but I've been gone for a while. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 122ninjas:
It's personal preference but most people choose AOKP or ShoStock 2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarkJatrix:
ok, I like some parts if touchwiz and some parts Aokp, but is there one that is the best of both worlds?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 122ninjas:
Hmm I haven't messed with ShoStock but it looks slightly inspired by TouchWiz so you can try and check that out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarkJatrix:
Just tried Ultimatum 2.2 but the only thing I don't like is the circle battery mod. Any easy way to change it?

That rom is unbelievably fast. If you want to run a "stock" rom, that is the one. I like to keep a stock rom on my work S2 and this one has been awesome.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DarkJatrix:
Thanks guys. Downloading it now. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Spykezxp:
I have tried half a dozen or so different roms, and the one that I keep coming back to is Shostock2. His latest release (4.0) is very stable, but it still needs some features added in that were in some of his previous releases. If you are looking for a balance of features, get Shostock2 (3.1.2).

Personally I liked Task's AOKP for some time, but recently flashed CM9 - and probably will stick with it until more stable Jelly Beaner...for stock - ShoStock is my choice
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Sandraker:
You came at a pretty good time. Most ROMs are really stable and Jellybean is just about to hit. What I like to do is play around with different ROMs and see which one I like best. It's what makes Android fun! For a ROM recommendation, I'd have to say SHOstock (if you want that stock TW feel) or task's AOKP (stock Android, plenty of customization)

I know everyone's already said those two but they really are good ROMs. Of course there are other good ones too, so go explore :D

As myself and Red5 maintain, the best ROM is the one that works for you. It may take a few hours, but give a few a try, and see which YOU like the best.

Hi,

I am using HTC vivid ics 4.03 rooted and unlocked to work with any sim holiday.

Mobile network is always working even if I tried to disable it.

Ex. If I disable Mobile Network, then I shouldn't be able to make calls and use data. But instead I was able to make call.

Please let me know how to resolve this issue.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] LaZiODROID:
I think mobile network has to do with the data.

If you want phone and data off, you should try Airplane Mode?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] graymonkey44:
Has anyone else experienced this? I don't understand why I have no GPS signal whatsoever. Everytime I try to use Navigation it stays at "searching for GPS signal". for 20 minutes I had it in the middle of the road and nothing was blocking me. The only thing I can think of is that my GPS radio got messed up somehow from flashing CM10 for a day. I lost my data signal on it so I did a nand restore of my stock ROM. I never did the IMED backup or whatever it was for the CM10 ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] graymonkey44:
Anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JetBlue:
Are you using the Navigation that came with the phone or are you using another app? Did it work on Stock before you flashed CM10? Also, having an IMEI (just check your phone settings and see if you do) and phone number showing could possibly play a factor.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] graymonkey44:
Yes the GPS did work and both my phone number and IMEI both show in settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] davidstech11:
My GPS works great. But I am stock rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ChrisNee1988:
I have the same issue on my phone, i can never get it to completely lock on to get the navigation working. I called customer service and I'm getting a replacement tomorrow. They did have to take me off unlimited but they said that if I called customer service back, they could put me back on it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aquila76:
GPS seems to get borked flashing to AOSP ROMs like CM. I remember for my Thunderbolt the trick was to load a stock ROM, attain GPS lock, then backup and flash the CM ROM. That might work for the S3 as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] graymonkey44:
I went back to stock after I lost data on CM10. I haven't been able to get it since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] simollie:
I had problem with my GPS, too. Went back to 100% stock and still the same problem. Takes forever to lock, though it does lock sometimes. And drift off even after it locks.

I went to the VZW store and they ordered a replacement for me.

So I have a few weird albums in my Gallery app. I have one that says Mike-PC and has nothing in it. I also have a directv2pc album that popped up after I downloaded the Directv app. I have deleted the Directv app and it's still there. I also went into the applications-gallery and cleared cache but those two folders are still there.

If I turn my Wifi off they disappear though, weird!!!

Any suggestions on how to get rid of them?? It's driving me friggin nuts!!!

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sage3:
The computer you have called Mike-pc is set up to share files over a network like a media server. Under the network connection setting on that pc you need to turn this off. (I have a computer set up to do this) The phone and pc are connected via your home network that is why when you turn WiFi off the album is gone.

As for the one associated with the app I'm am not sure because I don't have it. I would assume there is possibly some setting you can change. Otherwise I'm not sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KrisPeezy:
the directv2pc is also a media server that is being broadcast by your Directv DVR which is also connected to your home network. Both are network devices that your phone sees on your home wireless network
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mpetruzz:
Thanks for the responses. Ill look on my PC to change those settings. I did look on my directv settings and didn't see anything.

Its not a huge deal but just annoying when I look at pics.

I've never had this happen with any other of my phones which is why it stumped me.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmaam:
So i decided to finally install a custom rom on my desire hd after the news hit that it wouldn't be receiving the ice cream goodness.

Having never done so before, I followed a guide from team android to install jellybean. I flashed it fully according to the guide but the phone can't get past the boot screen anymore. It just hangs there indefinitely.

Now after reading a few threads here on xda developers i think the problem lies in me not having disabled the "s"(security?).

The flashing(and wiping) has been done with clockworkmod recovery. Though i never used the backup feature.

So now i'm sitting here with a phone that wont boot and have no backup of the previous system. I can boot into recovery, fastboot, etc.

Is there any way to fix the desire hd as in getting a s-off without booting to android? Or is it basically bricked without the right rom?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nillaz:
I know that at the moment this isn't possible, but does anyone know if there is work being done on the Android bluetooth stack to enable a tablet to be used as a bluetooth hands-free device? A bit of searching shows that it is a regularly requested feature but I can't seem to find any info on any developers who are definitively working on this (except for one little questionable nugget that stated that the CM developers were playing with Bluetooth. Hardly enough to go on.).

I want to incorporate a Nexus 7 into my 370Z as a carpc but the lack of being able to integrate phone features is holding me back. Using data apps like grooveip are a no go for me as data connections around here aren't reliable enough for consistent daily use. Thanks in advance for any info.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpungeWorthy:
I'm not to sure of what your asking, but if you wanna make calls from your tablet using BT this app allows you to do that as well as send SMS and MMS from it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apdroid.tabtalk hope that helps and is what you mean:)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nillaz:
I appreciate the suggestion but I don't think this will work. What I would like to do is mount my tablet in my car and use it as a front end for my phone to make/take calls the way an OEM bluetooth car system would normally work. My understanding is that your tablet must be paired as a hands free device, which android tablets currently don't do. I looked at Tablet Talk but when using that app from what I can gather when you accept a call on the tablet it actually activates the call on your handset. Ultimately I want to use the tablet as a hands free solution as I drive stick and holding my phone to my ear while driving is a no-no. ;)

In the past I've used bt headsets but I lose them constantly and frankly I'm tired of replacing them. Oh well.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpungeWorthy:
Well, good luck in your search! And you hit tablet talk spot on BTW lol. Oh and if you do find a solution, plz post it! This sounds like something I would love to use.:)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nillaz:
Thanks. I'll thinking I'll probably go the route of a more traditional carpc for now, but if and when this becomes a feature you can take advantage of with android tablets I'll have to reevaluate the situation.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WibblyW:
This would be a great extension or compliment to the various apps that let you send/receive SMSs from your tablet via your phone. If I could at least receive/answer calls too, I could leave the phone elsewhere at home.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *B*:
Just to let you know I've contacted parrot and garmin with regards to something like this.

I want a solution where I can make my nexus 7 a full media center with DAB radio and a good sat nav without needing a cellular link and hands free for my phone which includes the voice commands available through the tablet.

So hopefully they will get back to me and I'll post up here what they say.

Something I haven't solved yet either is getting all the antennae feeds into the nexus, I was thinking of getting a sharks fin antennae and wiring them into a raspberry pi to then blue toothing them into the nexus, I could also then attach a HDD to the pi to use it as a server to.

I want to do it this way so I can take the 7 otu and with me if I wish, rather than having it hard wired in. also if would allow for device upgrade.

Theres a nice thread on install and with references to the tasker app to get the tablet to work with the ignition and other functionality like that;

if this work in linux so i think can work on android

Hi to all,

i been looking for this "bluetooth role" for long time. I have read a lot of forum and the entire XDA posts about this..

it seems that this is the definitive question like "what is the answer to life the universe and everything" simple 42 :D

and it seems that is the paradise for all want to make a carputer/droid/tablet/**** car radio replacement... so... i'm one of you :)

this post is for some devs (i'm a dev too) i'm asking for help ....

the problem is: which android version do you want to use?

why this question? simple: from the android 4.2 google has decided to trash the bluetooth bluez stack and reimplement the wheel with bluedroid...

i read the documentation about bluedroid at this site:

https://source.android.com/devices/bluetooth.html

and there was written that there are some profiles actualy implemented but not the Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile server.

Ok it's not a problem, taking a look to the template of other profile i can implement it.

now the question is HOW DOES IT WORKS?

so i searched and bum this is how:

version 1.5

version 1.6

ok and now? and now i tried to find some similar implementations and...

after another night of search i found this....

HFP For Linux

where there is the downloadable source code.

now I think we have all the necessary to make this possible...

BUT there are some problem that i haven't resolved yet for a lack of knowledge of course.

it seems that the hfp override any other profiles on that example, it's not bad, in a system that i want to use i need only a HFP profile and AD2P togheter all the rest is useless

i think that this at the end is a fork of the standard android project and how I/we can put it into a rom or a patch and who want to add to a rom/kernel? how it can be done? is a patch better ? a new kernel like franco's or better to submit to google?

I hope to have intrigued someone with this post and I hope that somebody can link me to some documentation to understand how to put all the information I have together.

ps. i have tried to reply into this thread:

[Q] Android phone as bluetooth headset?

but of course i have to few posts to make my suggestion there
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] choybel:
I may be out of line here but try reading about the gmate+ device.

I got one paired with my Nexus 7 32gb right now and currently using it as a phone. I believe there are other similar gadgets out there, as I've done some researches before I actually got mine to work. I have yet to try it with a bluetooth headset paired because I lost mine just on the day when I was about to try it out.

Anyway, one problem here is, the app for the device is currently not updated so there are a lot of things that need tweaking and one major issue for me is the ringtone. As I have posted here before, sine N7 does not have native ringtone, there's no alert tone for incoming calls. As for text messages, the notification alert tone works. I know there's also GPRS for it but haven't tried it out yet.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aerosat:
Try these options...

As far as an option for a Nexus 7 you may want to try a sip dialer like 3cx or linphone or zoiper and establish a free sip account at iptel.org or something. As long as you have wifi or a 3g connection which some tablet have you should be able to make and receive calls, or try ""Blue Fi" from the play store. it may work.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HapkidoNinja:
I just got a new Nexus 7 for the same purpose of replacing my vehicles head unit with a tablet.

I am digging into the BT stack since I believe that I should be able to implement (or port) the profile on top of Android 4.3 assuming that the SCO data is available through the raw BT connection. There is an open source HFP implementation on sourceforge for Linux that migh be close enough to do the trick and save a bunch of coding time. It's going to take a while for me to get the time to dive too deeply into this one, but if I succeed or come to the conclusion it can't be done, I will let folks know.

Use some Motorola MotoActiv Bt code?

I have a Motorola MotoActiv running watch... Features gps tracking for running and biking, MP3 player and Bluetooth... The Bluetooth is mainly used for wireless headphones, but if you have a Motorola Phone, the watch can display text msgs from the phone and you can use the headphones/mic through the watch to take calls. (the idea being that you can leave the phone in a pocket or backpack while you're bike riding, I guess, and still take calls.)

The device runs Android (I'm sure someone's rooted it on here). Maybe that code can be dissected and repurposed for what were all looking for??

Just an update on something I said in my previous post... I was looking at my MotoActiv watch today and it says you have to have an "Android phone" not a Motorola phone as I said in my previous post. So I'm wondering if the phone audio over Bt can be reverse engineered from the Motoactive watch for other android devices.
