[Galaxy S III Accessories] Vuitres:
The problem with most dry install screen guards is there isn't much room for error. If there are any motes of dust, micro-particles of dander, a single fiber of terry cloth, or even your goober-ed up fingerprint, will leave a bubble or nubbin on your screen that will drive you clinically insane.

I install dozens of screen protectors of all sorts, shapes, styles, and materials, and I believe I have perfected the dry install application of screen guards for any phone. I have created a video (bear with me, it happens to be my very first "How-To" flick...cuz we all been in a few home made pron flicks...don't deny it...we're all friends here) to help put one of these guys on your phone.

Because I work in the industry and I see the harmful effects that every day life, i.e. coins, keys, kids, animals, concrete, car doors, etc., have on cell phone screens, I HIGHLY recommend a screen protector, of any sort. Preferably one made with hybrid plastic, rubber, polymer, etc materials. They seem to provide the best over all protection. But really, anything is better than nothing. Trust me.

Here's the link to my video. Hit thanks if it helps!

SHOOOOOTS!!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Gloris:
Been having a few issues with my battery life. Didn't originally plan on unlocking bootloader, rooting or any of that jazz, but really want to get this done now so that i can simply underclocck. i know that i'll have to wipe everything and start over, but i;'ve also had a few little bugs recently, i'm thinking it's probably because when i did the ics update, it didn't wipe everything like i was told i'd have to.....o soemthing maybe went wrong soemwhere. so i'm thinking that it'll go something like this?

1-backup contacts/text/pictures/video's with pcc.

2-go through the unlock bootloader process (which means going back to gingerbread?)

3-go back to official ics

4-flash custom kernel with auto rooting

5-restore contacts/text/picture/video's with pcc.

does this sound about right? and can anyone recommend the best custom kernel that will allow me to underclock to sensible values to improve battery performance.

i basically want stock ics firmware that i can use root just to underclock.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ksekhar:
I m more or less in the same position as yours. I have tried various kernels now and can say that XSX is the only kernel that works without lag for me. It has option to use various governors and can under clock to 192 and it is the lowest you can go on this one, unfortunately. Hope it helps. Thanks.

-K
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Gloris:
ok, thanks.

just been though the whole process, phone is now rooted with stock uk ics, and i'm just using stock kernel and setcpu to underclock...at the moment i've got it set to min 192, max 1242 on powersave/deadline....will see how i get on with it tomorrow :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikusP:
Hi! I'm looking for a camera app that can be triggered via audio, but also take pictures at a SUPER fast rate.

I've found Sensor Camera. This, as the name suggests, allows for capture of photos through a variety of different sensor methods. Light, Sound, Motion, etc. It has great control over the audio input levels but takes way too long to process each photo between shots.

I've also found Fast Burst Camera. This is perfect!! From what I can tell it uses the video camera in order to get the frame rate up to 30fps. Setting this to single shot, with no image review, allows for amazing speed & control over capture.

Wondering if anyone knows of an app that combines the two? Or if not, would it be easy to make? Had my first go with the Android SDK today, there's definitely a LOT to learn.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sammyycakes:
My dad wanted me to unroot his phone. I went through the unrooting process using Odin and it seems to have unrooted it but all he gets is force closes. Every 5 seconds hr gets FC's for the gapps, calendar and others and it won't load his keyboard or bring up the dial pad. Anyone have this problem? BTW I tried to reroot and it failed so I tried unroot one more time and it did the same exact thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rovar:
Go into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik, see if that works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Not sure what method you used. But if you use sfhub's one click root (no data; to preserve data). To re root and 'clean up' whatever other issues you are having. Then use HIS Autoroot to remove root it should work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
So what was the outcome?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evobb10:
I don't know your version ru stil EL19 or FF18. My was rooted with ff18 through sfhub one click method unroot my phone and it is great working. If you r the same with mine

Go head delet super user apk and sup binary through file explorer then factory reset done.

Overclock + RAM Manager + Supercharger v6

Sent from my awesome Xperia Play
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devedue:
About that v6 supercharger. I am unable to install busybox. Any fix?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drivenby:
Heres what you will do TC

1- download lightning launcher and dont add any widgets or fancy stuff

its uglier than most launchers , but its also the least consuming launcher out there. it barely uses 10mb of ram when active and like 6-4 when idle :)

2- install v6 supercharger

dont worry about it , its almost fool proof

as for busybox , you need the supercharger starter kit .

"Using SuperCharger Starter Kit (Prepares your ROM with the fixed su binary, zipalign binary, sqlite3 binary and busybox v1.19.4... and does NOT include the V6 SuperCharger scipt):

- Extract the zip to the root of the sdcard and it will all be in /sdcard/SuperCharger_Starter_Kit

- With Script Manager, just run StartMeUp.sh to install everything at once.

- Or, in terminal do: su, enter, sh /sdcard/Super*/Start*"

download the starter kit (ctrl+f starter) from here , and also the latest version of supercharger

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18703418&postcount=5021

3- as for options i personally use HARD TO KILL launcher and custom preset i got from another app

try using them yourself if you want , just search for the option that says "v6 custOOMizer"

and add this values

10.16.32.74.86.92

4- v6 supercharger is almost foolproof but you should always have a nandroid backup , just in case. I have never heard about anyone messing up the process though , its that safe.

5- dont use any other ram tools or boosters!

ALTERNATE OPTION!

search the playstore for GameBooster and buy it . For some users , in some games , it CAN improve performance. I think my method is better though
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devedue:
Ok thanks for the tips. I had to reroot, install busybox and now i am getting:

Warning: incompatibility error.

A memory app of questionable integrity found!

What does this mean and which "cr-app" do I have to uninstall?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drivenby:
Ram manager pro or auto killer, most likely... Game booster too.

Anything that deals with ram
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vicktoroid:
I recommend

I recommend you use busybox 1.8.4 for me it was the only busybox able to make v6 SC run well also use busybox installer is in play store it lets you choose the best version of busybox.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] IDArmyTJ:
While out and about, I have been bluetooth tethering using the Foxfi/PDA Net combo to stay connected while in 'pay for Wi-Fi' areas and as a passenger on trips. The one downside I can see is it says "No Internet Connection" and anything connected to the downloader program (browser downloads and store) will hold until I have Wi-Fi.

Anyone else try this? Anyone know if there is a fix, or if this is just how it is?

My details: Phone is Galaxy S II rooted with ICS, Tab was stock, now rooted with CWM.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] rapatelrocky:
I've been using bluetooth tethering using same scenario (epic 4G though), and when connectivity breaks, I have to check PDA Net and reconnect at times.

Sometimes data will hang and disconnecting and reconnecting will cause data to flow again. Other times my phone has issues and I have to restart FoxFI/bluetooth on it.

I always thought it was my phone though.. phone does reboot at times too. Using wifi instead of bluetooth is more problematic - epic runs only wimax or wifi but not both, so tends to have issues there as a 1st gen phone.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] IDArmyTJ:
As far as my connection between the tab and phone, it has been solid. I guess that could implicate the phone. I have found that the systems tie themselves together much better if you let each program turn on the BT for the devices.

I'm disappointed that I can't download files from the browser or update programs on the fly.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] rapatelrocky:
w/ bluetooth, it is using a proxy service, so only browsers can communicate. app store updates or other app communications won't work in BT mode.

wifi tethering is the non-proxy way to address that..

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tehsprayer:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] broseph23:
No you can't. The LTE frequencies are different.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gomisensei:
I can confirm that they are exactly the same hardware. You could flash the bell firmware from Samfirmware on the AT&T version, and it would be identical to what you get from a bell store here in canada. The LTE Frequency for AT&T is different, as another poster noted, but the Radio firmware for Bell would make it work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boostnek9:
No they aren't.. same thing.. you can flash a AT&T modem on a Bell phone, hence, the same.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] azzledazzle:
its said that all devices will receive updates for 18 months after release.

I highly doubt the S2 will receive it, I think the Note might just squeeze into that time frame.

Either way I dont care :p If I got JB I wouldnt be using it stock anyway, And im 100,000,000,000,000% sure we will get a stable JB Custom ROM :) Theres already a few in progress at the moment!

I think they will be releasing the Note 2 with JB (or should I say im hoping they will:))

Hi everyone!!

i have a little weird problem, yesterday i installed the SwiftDroid SDSL v2.0 form miroslav, i changed the rom for battery issues and now the phone does't recognize usb, when i connect it, it just charge but the usb notification doesn't appears, i tried wiping the dalvik-cache, using another sd and computer whitout any results, and finally i went to settings>Cyanogenmod settings>apps>use internal storage but is unavaliable and says: "This device doesn't have expanded internal storage" i looked a lot of similar problems but none of these fix my problem...

Greetings.-
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mlopik:
Hi all,

Can i ask you, that rom is more stable, smoother, faster,...? I mean CM 7.2 T.M.C. and Aurora ICS.

Thanks for answers :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
I think that, at this point, it makes no sense using any gb based ROM when we have an almost fully stable ics ROM... gingerbread just doesn't cut it anymore for me... there are a lot of new apps that only run on it. But granted, gingerbread is more stable, no doubt. You have to decide, rock solid stability, but outdated android or updated android experience with the occasional problem :)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mlopik:
Thank you. I decided for aurora ICS.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Angelico77:
Elora

In my humble opinion, Elora is THE rom, a perfect combination of Aurora and Elite Roms, fast, stable, and with the functions that gingerbread should had.

They say, it might get some bugs, like the wifi or the headphone bugs, but I've been using Elora for the last couple of days and haven't seen none of thoose bugs.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nikeradsn:
Im using aurora ics and i can say that the only bug that i found was the grey wifi icon which never had that problem again since i flashed the init.d scripts for higher fps. So i trully recommend aurora ics. It was my first rom and im really happy with it. Your choice mate :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mae7:
I was using Aurora 4.1 but I found that the wifi went idle time to time and the 3g internet browsing wasnt the fastest, the touch keys wouldn't light up sometimes and some other minor stuff.

I switched to CM7 and I've been using it for about 3 weeks and its so much better imo.

Faster 3g browsing and the other problems went away. I use the wifi and 3g heavily for viber so its great for this use.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Angelico77:
I really don't want to sound like a fanatic, but there aren't any wifi issues with elora.

Hey all!

I've been trying to find a screen protector for my Nexus 7 and thought I'd email Realook to see if they had plans on creating one and got the following response

I'm a huge fan of the screen protectors that these guys have developed. They're a dry apply, hard surface screen protector, that feels like there's nothing even there! Maybe if they get enough requests we can get them to make one for the Nexus 7 :)

I am going to be selling my One S, but before I do I have a couple of questions. Because my phone is from Bell, it is likely it will be much harder to sell since it is a Canada only carrier. First of all is it possible to flash another carrier's RUU to my phone? If it is, would my phone be still be locked to the Bell network, or could I sell it as lets say a T-Mobile phone.
[HTC One S] x1tyme:
It's don't matter If you flash another ruu. Your phone to be unlock inorder to use another carrier. If your phone is rooted, unlock is free. If not probably pay 20$ for third party
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
OK I'm really confused. I have several questions about it.

1. I'm a Verizon GNex, if I were to get this set up, would ALL my Voicemails turn into visual Voicemails or only ppl who uses Google Voice????

2. Is it buggy and has issues like I read in the reviews.

3. If 1 was answered "YES" & 2 was "NO", then can anyone help me set this up??? Been trying to do this for the past 3 days on my own.

REMEMBER I'M ON VERIZON.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iceshark:
Its easy, You go to your google account and sign up for GOOGLE VOICE. Then put app on your phone. You can set it up to EMAIL and or text you with the VM and it will show text of visual part. I find it does not always get the messege even close to correct. Yes it turns off stock VM when you use it. With sprint you use same number witch is cool. Not sure if Verizon allows you to use same cell as voice number ike sprint.

I used to use it for free calls at home. Lots think it gives you airtime free calls on cell. That is not true. IT calls a number an forwards call with your number and uses airtime. SO I do not use it since I went unlimited. But others still use it for the cool visual free VM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
All your voicemail would be visual, not Google voice users. It completely replaces your carrier voicemail. I use it religiously, its stupid not to. All my voice mails ever left are available to me online for the rest of my life, archived in Google. Why would I not use that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iceshark:
Do you find that it gets the messege correct. I stopped using it months ago as I got frustrated about two things. 1. Rarely did it put correct text of the messege. Like wife could leave VM saying. Be home at six. Text would say. beam rome at sticks. 2. You had to download the VM as an audio file to first to listen to the messege. Was a pain...3. Have to make sure to turn off text notification as you get both a notification from text and email. Also was a pain until I unchecked notify by TEXT.
