[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
I did my first root less than a month ago, so I'm super new to this too. I used Advanced Ace Hack Kit; it has since been taken off of XDA Forums, but Google it and it should be pretty easily found. After that, just try the different ROMs on XDA. Remember to do a nandroid (a full backup) before you wipe and flash a new ROM, and maybe even back up your apps so you can restore them (which can be problematic).

I strongly recommend spending some time researching different ROMs and how to do different things yourself; that seems to be the XDA way. The information's all here already. There's also just so many options: GB, ICS, and JB; AOSP, CM, and AOKP. I doubt anyone's going to give you extensively detailed information here when it's already available with a little Googling and searching.

With that said, welcome. I've found XDA a great resource in the short time I've been here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] unometooo:
Agreed, I strongly recommend titanium back up for your apps and data. Also rom manager for a full back

I prefer Goomanager for flashing and full backup and Go Backup for apps and data backup...but that's just me. :)

Safe backup is also a nice lil app for doing your backups... pretty easy to use and allows you to backup to your dropbox as well...
[Thunderbolt General] th3bl3d:
So... I used to be rooted until my old tbolts 4g data bit the dust and I had to get a replacement. I have my new tbolt in my hand as we speak but I'm faces with a dilema. Should I root or wait for stock ics Rom to he released and live with that. I've been waiting a long time for this update as I have had the tbolt for almost 2 years now. What is your guys' opinion on this. I know it would be nice to root and debloat the thing as my battery drains so quickly these days , but maybe with the promise of ics we will see improvements? Also how long before a custom Rom is released when the ota for ics hits our phones?
[Thunderbolt General] *Madmoose*:
I'm not sure what future updates have to do with unlocking and rooting your phone. It's such an easy procedure and it helps immensely when debloating and saving battery life.
[Thunderbolt General] th3bl3d:
Thanks for the response! I just know if I root I won't be able to install the ota update.... Am I wrong?
[Thunderbolt General] *Madmoose*:
OTA's are just patches to take you to the next level. RUU's are released at the same time (speaking specifically about ICS here). With S-Off you can do whatever you want as far as installing things. Honestly it's pretty pointless to not S-Off if it's available to your device.
[Thunderbolt General] gcodori:
ROOT NOW - and wait for ICS! Seriously, as soon as ICS comes out it will be rooted and posted here. Then you can flash that on top of what you have.
[Thunderbolt General] recDNA:
Will the ruu install radios and changes to hboot (if there are changes to hboot)?
[Thunderbolt General] *Madmoose*:
RUU's are EVERYTHING. OTA's are just the parts that were updated from the last version. Usually OTA's end up causing little issues here and there. The RUU's do a full install on the phone.
[Thunderbolt General] recDNA:
I suppose nobody can knownif it will be possible to go back from rooted ics ruu to rooted gb or even if it will be possible to root s on phones once ics is installed?
[Thunderbolt General] heath2805:
+1 The devs here would make a stock version that's an exact replica of it anyway.
[Thunderbolt General] *Madmoose*:
If you are S-Off you can go in any direction you want to. S-On could be a problem if they patch our S-Off exploit (which i strongly doubt, but a possibility nonetheless) This is why it's pointless to have a phone without S-Off if it's available.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joey.t:
The S Pen is a passive device. That means it has no battery to run it. If your S Pen stops working it's probably because it's broken so try using a different S Pen or get Samsung to check it for you.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] CrzzyLegz:
If you use doubeTwist music player and have a Galaxy S III you may be experiencing app crashes, lockscreen control problems, and status bar problems. I noticed in the app review in the Google Play market there were quite a few S3 users experiencing the same problems I was having and thus decided to share the new Beta build that was sent to me.

Upon contacting doubleTwist they sent me the following .apk for the Beta build. So far everything is working very smoothly and no problems.

1. Uninstall current version of doubleTwist (if you already have the player installed).

2. Download the following .apk file

http://beta.doubletwist.com/dT-android-opt_2012-08-07-1358_r15719.apk

3. Make sure that you have "Allow installation of non-Market applications" enabled in "Android Settings > Applications".

4. Use the My Files app or any file manager app to open the file. (It will most likely be stored in sdcard > Downloads).

5. Follow the steps after you open it and install.

Very easy to do and working much, much better on my Samsung Galaxy S III. I prefer the doubleTwist player over the default stock music player because of the UI and ease of use.

doubleTwist Beta

mmm, look -- this COULD be great, and for sure dT is crashing a lot on my S3-- but I'd feel better about loading it onto my device if there were a link I could follow back to the company itself. Could they provide that for us?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] CrzzyLegz:
doubleTwist

Hmm. I, personally, cannot provide a link back to the company as it was sent to me from their doubleTwist support team to my personal email with the .apk link. However, I'm sure if you sent an email to support@doubleTwist.com asking for the latest Beta Build for the Galaxy S3 I'm sure they would provide you with what you are looking for. They sent me the link just for complaining about the crashes and lack of functionality.

However, I am considering moving to PowerAmp. Downloaded the free trial for now and evaluating. I like the widget options over doubleTwist. With the S3 I want to fill my screen as I use Apex Launcher and a 6 row by 4 column setup. Being limited to only having a 2 row by 4 column widget is frustrating. Maybe when doubleTwist offers the newest version through the market and I download a Beats Audio eq on my S3 I'll switch back.

Hi, I just saw some stuff about SD partition and ended up partitioning the card to 512mb with 64 swap size. I'm a bit lost and feel stupid as I forgot to backup my SD card and lost all my stuff. How can I un-partition my card and (if possible) is there anyway to get my stuff back? Any help deeply appreciated.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace of Spades:
Oh okay, do you know any particular ones? And how can I return my card to normal?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterex567:
I did that mistake once and i felt horribly stupid.

Simple way to un-partition.

Download Mini-Tool Partition Wizard and under your sd card drive letter there will be two disks according to two partitions. Right click on the partition of 512 mb you created and Click "Delete"

After that. Just do a normal format by right clicking the disk drive in "My Computer" (ofcourse if your using windows)

And In the format options.

Select Quick Format

And click restore device defaults.

Start.

That should fix it. :)

One Advice: Don't select a swap size in CWM. I heard swap causes lag. :(

Just download swapper. it works better

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vinscuzzy:
This is amazing, I just got a replacement ET4G from sprint. I was hesitant to flash anything, cuz my last one bricked, blue light, completley dead. So I was waiting for something to tickle my fancy IE a stable JB rom, or maybe just boredom. I woke up this morning, and low and behold... the update was waiting for me. Already downloaded, just waitin for me to install. I knew at some point Id be flashing a rom, so I almost didnt take it, but then I decided, well this way Ill have the newwest modem, bla, bla, bla. So I applied the update, and boom... stuck in a bootloop. HAHA! Anyway, does anyone where it downloads the update? I think is on the root of my sd card, but theres nothing with todays date on there. I found a file from 7-20 called update.zip, but Im worried that was from my old ET4g... Im scared to flash it again, cuz what if Im wrong???? Is it safe to do a factory reset in recovery? Or am I at risk to get hit with the EMMC bug???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
Can you get into odin/download mode?

Click here for custom mods for your E4GT
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
The latest update goes into /cache internally. (It's been pulled out in the last few weeks to look for changes) But it should be gone once applied.

As far as the brick issue - sfhub says the risk is still there. Personally, I have done a reset and not bricked. Others have reset with no brick.

I'd take sniper's suggestion on getting to download mode and using a one click.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vinscuzzy:

Does anybody else's SWYPE randomly freeze up when typing? What i mean is, you will be using swype during a text for instance and it doesn't display the words you typed until you hit the back arrow to minimize the keyboard
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
Random? Sure. I can vaguely remember something like this happening.

I switched to Swype beta, I think it works better than the stock one... although it does act a fool in the S Note app...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
Are you using the stock swype? The Collective have nice themed swype keyboards, check in their Theme thread, they all work great.

I use this swype on all ROMs, no issues or freezes, now you will have scroll down and to find the "Galaxy Note Swype", only has two type themed, I use the ICS-Stock-Swype-v6-Beta-326-GNote, on every ROM I have tried, no problems. Ensure you read the directions, what works for me, I uninstall the stock swype, reboot and then just install the apk and I am good to go.,

Plus I like the dark theme.

Yerp I stand corrected just went thru the site again...

"Welcome to Da Swypes. I have always loved Swype ever since the beta program started but always hated the look. I have been making themes for Swype from the beginning but was too afraid to share due to the SWYPE terms and conditions saying we cannot share the apk with unregistered users. Since then they have been many other people making themes and trying to do metamorphs to theme it to keep within the T&C but I got fed up and decided to just post them anyway. I have posted my themes on many sites to share my themes but have had them closed from Swype complaints. Well this came to no surprise to me so I will keep them here and just post on my twitter and Google plus pages the links. I have some other forums that have kept them up until they get heat from Swype to close the threads. So please DO NOT POST THESE LINKS ON ANY FORUMS!!!"

When is out of the phone he restart some times only or just the screen goes black and i have to remove the battery to restart the phone
