First time i noticed the delay is when i was playing Fruit Ninja. I thought that it can be fixed by flashing custom kernels i tried a few but it is still the same.. Maybe ill try the JB roms..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GREGHARKINS:
Today i tried to install an apk i downloaded from a company thats software i use, Touchdown for my email and contacts etc.

When i went to the download file to click on the apk to update my version it gives me the install option but i cant click on it only on cancel.

I messed around and then did the same thing though my file explorer and this time i was presented with an option to install it using package installer or juicy installer work around.

package didnt work the the installer workaround did.

Is this a problem with juicy or what?

If its a problem and they have obviously included a work around are they going to fix it?

This is a weird issue i guess idk.

Any responses would be helpful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Relentless D:
Go to settings>security and check the "unknown sources" box. Without that you can only install apps from the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GREGHARKINS:
settings

i have that

this started since i installed Juicy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rani9990:
Disable the brightness control in juice defender. That's causing your problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GREGHARKINS:
Worked like a charm

Thanks...

That worked and solved the issue

Is that with all screen dimmers or just Juicy?

With Juicy i can at least do the pull down click brightness turn it off and install then turn it back on

Thanks again

I can tell you that LUX does not cause any problems.
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
So, I rooted my last N7 to give the "washed out screen after video" fix a try (which worked great for me, btw). I decided that I couldn't live with the yellow tint to the screen, and the screen lift got worse on that unit while I owned it, so I processed it for a return and will wait a little awhile until stock is back in B&M stores (tired of the UPS shuffle).

Unfortunately, this was my first time rooting and I had the mistaken impression that performing a factory reset got rid of root. Oops. I therefore sent it back while still rooted.

What do you think the chances are that the tech who inspects it for the return will check it for root? If he does and they reject the return, so be it. I'm kind of inclined to think it's not really something they regularly check.

Thoughts? Just how much anxiety should I allow myself to feel over this screw up?
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
All they have to do is turn it on to see that it is rooted, which they will probably do to check out the yellowish tint. As for if they will decline your return or not, I have no idea. If you sent it to Google you should be ok but ASUS has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to rooting and warranty (They have denied legitimat physical issues due to rooting).
[Nexus 7 General] JaSauders:
Not to highjack, but I think myself and wynand32 might share similar curiosity now that you brought that one point up - What did ASUS do in that scenario? Did they ship the unit back to the customer?
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
How can they tell it's rooted just by turning it on? I didn't mention that I was smart enough to re-lock the bootloader...

Oh, and yes, this was a return to Google Play. Note that it's the same facility where ASUS takes returns, however.
[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
Well, whatever happens, keep us posted! I would be interested in knowing how this gets resolved.
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
I'll definitely report back. But if anyone wants to clarify that "they can tell it's rooted by turning it on" part, I'd appreciate it. I know there's an unlock icon when the bootloader's unlocked, but I wasn't aware of anything obvious when it's "just" rooted.

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
£159/$200 worth of anxiety...
[Nexus 7 General] Jordanooo:
The booting up should look like stock but (s)he could see the superuser app

Thats the only difference visible from just going through
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
The boot animation, going into "About Device" if you flashed a ROM/kernel, finding the superuser app. Any of the above.
[Nexus 7 General] ExploreMN:
I would think it wouldn't make a difference if you're returning it for hardware issues.
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
As I stated above, ASUS has denied warranty returns for faulty charging ports because the tablet was rooted.
[Nexus 7 General] nyijedi:
I'm pretty sure Asus has a problem with unlocked bootloaders, not root access. The OP should be fine.
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
Well, since I'm new to all this stuff, here's what I think: I did relock the bootloader, so the unlock icon isn't there. I didn't install a different ROM, so it's just rooted stock. I did a factory reset, so there shouldn't be any obvious app loaded (should there?).

I'd hope that the tech would have to open a terminal and do an su command or somesuch, but that's really what I'm wondering now. Will a stock N7 that's been factory reset show anything obvious?
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
Hee hee... Yeah, I was waiting for someone to say that. :) That's not precisely correct, though, because even if they refuse the return they'd just have to send it back to me (and charge me shipping) or maybe take it but charge a restock fee (which they're waiving because of the defects).

So, the cost would be at most about $37, or about $15 and I'd be stuck with a yellow tint and screen lift. Which is to put a precise price on the anxiety... :)
[Nexus 7 General] Jordanooo:
Nope. Just superuser app in the app draw
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
Okay, so, sorry to be obtuse, but: there's a "superuser app" that's installed in the app drawer even on a stock device that's been factory reset? Now I'm just curious how all this stuff works. I had no idea that such an app was installed when I rooted the N7, and that the app would remain when it was reset.

Now I wish I had an N7 to play with to see how it all works.
[Nexus 7 General] Harry GT-S5830:
It's in /system/app therefore considered a "factory" app and will not be affected by /data reset
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
Okay, thanks. It'll be interesting to see if 1) the tech notices the app/rooting and 2) if they reject the return because of it. Of course, there's also the chance that they'll notice that it's rooted and not reject it, in which case we may never know.

I'll report back...
[Nexus 7 General] Kinbote:
I can't comment personally but you may find this interesting: http://youtu.be/9YcIHaajda8
[Nexus 7 General] nyijedi:
Actually, now that I think about it, the last time I RMA'd my Transformer Prime, I just wiped it and did not unroot. Asus didn't have a problem with it.
[Nexus 7 General] jaycustom:
Being a former Transformer Prime owner, there were many people in that thread that were boot loader unlocked and rooted. The Prime had non existent GPS, weak WiFi, screen tearing, and cameras going bad for no reason. Also easily bent dock connections and broken HDMI ports. So, I know of a bunch of cases where the Prime was sent in user modified, but for hardware issues, nothing was said, and the unit fixed under warranty and shipped back. There are more cases where the unit was user modified, sent in for faulty hardware, and warranty work was rejected. They will still fix the device, but charge you more than half the price of the tablet purchase price. So, you can never really know until you hear back from them.

EDIT: BTW, the only way to unlock the boot loader on the Prime was thru an official app made by Asus. When you unlock, your device was flagged as unlocked and blacklisted for no warranty repair, yet some people still got their unlocked/rooted devices fixed for free. So good luck man, I'd say you have a 50/50 shot.

[HTC Rezound] tbguy:
Flashed it last night and has been working great. ^_^

Only issue I've seen was the ones they listed where I can't use the back button but doesn't affect functionality at all

Anyone noticing significant battery drain?

Yes, ever since I started buying smart phones:P but seriously, I have not with this installed if that's what you mean
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Flashed it, and don't know what to do now. No app, nothing in settings.
[HTC Rezound] VitaminCBold:
Flashed it last night as well. Seems to work almost perfectly http://xdaforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Flashed and get an "unfortunately Google search has stopped" message :[
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Determined, figured it out. Press the search button.
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
Had to lol at that. I did the same thing
[HTC Rezound] danutzz:
Yeah, just add the search widget to one of your screens and use that
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Or use the google app in the app drawer
[HTC Rezound] netomel:

[HTC Rezound] squidder:
I think simply holding down the search key is best
[HTC Rezound] rabidpencil:
Agreed
[HTC Rezound] kingofyo1:
Cannot get it to do any voice commands.. not sure why
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Tap the microphone.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Hmmm does voice search work on any of these?
[HTC Rezound] dplane:
Didn't think I'd like it as much as I do but particularly the improved voice search function is pretty sweet. It's nice to be able to give the phone more natural commands and have it pick up on it. It also doesn't seem as impaired by rushed pronunciation as 4.0 and below.
[HTC Rezound] kingofyo1:
No matter what I say, when I tap the mic or hold down search and it auto mics, if i say anything it always does web search. Never commands for anything. Cant create new calendar entry, cant text, etc.
[HTC Rezound] TUDrewser:
Edit: Nevermind...i didn't see where it mentioned ARM v7 but the entire post is only for phones with ARM v7. Got it. Sheesh.
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
My google now won't make appointments, but when I had S-Voice it would. Is that correct? Is Google Now unable to do this?
[HTC Rezound] teckels:
I went with the first one since it looked most stable. Was pretty slow for me, on a sense based rom, seemed to jam me up for a quick search. One note, I could not silence ringtone with volume keys when installed but when I removed it I could.
[HTC Rezound] b5fan:
Me too. Except for weather, everything else comes up as a web result. I am on a Sense 4 rom, so I am wondering if that is the problem. My guess is that Google Now doesn't recognize Sense and therefore doesn't recognize that any programs are installed.
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:
I went with the second one, reekotubbs and it appears to be working perfect.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Me too. Only weather. I might try the second one.
[HTC Rezound] chrisjz:
Mine is working good except for she doesn't talk back anymore. At first she was. Like if I say "Set alarm for 430am" she would reply with something like "Setting alarm for 430am". Now when I say anything into it. She just does it but I don't hear her say it back. Anyone else?

Oh and also when I have Google now open and then go back to homescreen and then try and do a search, it makes the noises for when to speak, but only opens up to the actual app not the voice screen. I have to actually go into task manager and close out of Google now.
[HTC Rezound] Talguy:
I have been using google now in the Adrenline 2.0 release and it is awesome. One thing I have noticed when you try to tell it to set a timer or calendar entry it will show the card but you have to manually touch the card to complete this action. A little searching the web and I have found out that the manual touch process is to help eliminate the unforseen errors in interrpting speach.

What I want to know and can't seem to figure it out is to get google now to report up coming traffic on the road to me. Does anyone know how to get the application to track my work to home route and report the upcoming traffic.

Talguy
[HTC Rezound] squidder:
From what I understand u need tobsetvur home and work locations in Google latitude
[HTC Rezound] danutzz:
I believe it well begin giving you traffic updates after a couple days. From what I understanding it gathers information about what you do and then displays what you need at the time you need it.
[HTC Rezound] sabindaman:
Can anyone confirm this? I've been trying to find out more about google now and it's integration and usage beyond the voice search, particularly maps/traffic before installing it.
[HTC Rezound] danutzz:
Just Google it. There's plenty of YouTube videos out there, that will probably explain it better than me
[HTC Rezound] Hag77:
Did you set your home and work location in your maps app?. If you do that traffic should start showing up pretty much immediately.. that is if you're leaving your house and stuff..
[HTC Rezound] sabindaman:
Yes all the youtube videos I find are just same basic overview searches and dictation. Some information about cards but there are no in depth videos of what can be done and walking through what happens with all the back ground updates and such
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
Everything seems to work pretty well except connecting through bluetooth headset. Wonder if there is a button I'm not pushing right.
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
How do I set my home location on Google maps?

Google Search is your friend: http://support.google.com/gmm/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1650346
[HTC Rezound] chrisjz:
So I set up my home and work location a couple days ago,my question is, will the distance traveled and time away home or at work, will all of that get reset everytime I flash a new rom? Or is this somehow stored on my Gmail account? I like how this tells me about where I am mostly throughout the week but in a week ill flash a couple roms.
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
Thanks so much, that was very helpful. However, I have another question: I set home as my home address, and work as the address of my high school. After I did that I received a card saying "leave for work, you will arrive in 11 minutes. Traffic is light." However, that isn't when I want the card. School starts at 7:15, and I need to be there at 7--is there anyway for me to set more concise stipulations on latitude? Such as: "need to be at work by 7 a.m.," this way it would tell me when to leave my house each day to arrive at 7? Whether one day it tells me to leave at 6:30 because of a wreck, or 6:45 because traffic is light, etc?
[HTC Rezound] Talguy:
Thanks, I set my home and work location and it started spitting out traffic info right away.
[HTC Rezound] Hag77:
The more you use it, it will start to realize your habits of when you leave and should update accordingly.. If you can't wait for that, set up a daily appointment (or mon-fri) in your google calendar for 7:00 am and *make sure* you have the address of your school in *where* or *places*.. This will surely work, but as I said- if you just keep doing your normal daily routine- it should figure out when you leave and update by itself.

i just purchased a class 10 32Gb micro sd card to compliment this rom.

what would be the best formatting solution? (partition size, # of partitions) recovery gives you the option for 2 ext parts. is that a good idea?

I currently have it at: 1Gb ext, 1 Gb ext2, 512Mb swap & rest at FAT 32 using 4ext recovery.

I have already noticed an increase in speed just installing the card.

thank you

does anyone have any suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JON123123:
I have searched here and google and tried about everything but I cannot find a solution. I have been having a problem with my at&t gs3 not picking up a signal, it will have bars sometimes with no data, then randomly drop all signal together. Sometimes I can get 4g after initially changing APNs, but it always drops out after a few seconds. I did get it to stay on edge for a little bit, but that also dropped out. This started right after I rooted the phone. I then installed Task's ROM, first the ICS then the JB version, to see if that would help, and it didn’t. I went through several APN settings to see if that was the problem, nothing gave a solution. So I tried returning to complete stock through Odin and that didn’t fix the problem either. I was getting full 4g before I rooted it, so know the problem was caused in the rooting process. I just want to know if there’s anything I can do to fix this, or should I just try and return the phone now that it is back to stock? Here are the APNs I tried, none of which fix my problem (the x in the hxxp are t):

I know this is a topic that has little consequence, but i was using a gallery wall paper and it was allowing scrolling, then i switched to another and was forced to crop the wall paper to a static size. After this happened i went and did a search and found out that the sgs3 doesnt support scrolling wall paper natively and that you need to dl a live wallpaper app to make it work. This whole thing bugs the hell out of me, If my phone was using a scroll before i dont understand why it wouldnt be doing it still. any ideas?

Try using wallpaper wizardry to crop and "install"/select your wallpapers.... and I highly recommend using either apex or nova launcher....

Yes, Wallpaper Wizardrii is the best application for photo screen-savers/backgrounds and I think the best launcher would probably be Nova or Launcher Pro. Good luck.

I am a new user of the HTC DHD, i wanna know if there is any rom that has the least bugs and good battery as i am on the official 2.3.5 android and the battery life is making me wana die, i need my wifi all the time so please suggest a rom which has no problem with wifi and app running
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciberbeb:
Which rom do you currently use ? the stock one ?

If so, Sense consumes a bit more battery than AOSP roms.

I used to have Cyanogenmod 7.2 with LordModUE 8.9b7 kernel. And it is very very good.

That's for GB roms.

Both JellyTime and IceColdSandwhich roms are good too (but still in beta).

But Wifi is far from being cool with a battery ... Wifi is energy-greedy!!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prospect565:
currently i am using the stock one

does cyanogenmod 7.2 consists of bugs?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurby1:
If you wand the stock HTC look a recommend android revolution

If you wand better performances and battery life use AOSP(android open source project) or Cyanogenmod of AOKP(android open kang project)

Ice cold sand witch have verry good battery life (only bug is camcorder for wat I know)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prospect565:
Which one do u recommend? Aosp or aokp?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciberbeb:
Cyanogenmod 7.2 is rock stable !

Most of the GB rom are very stable too, and almost bug free.

You have to try each rom, Sense feeling ? Aosp one ?

I used SmartDroid for a long time and really enjoyed it.

Newer roms, 4.0 or 4.1 based are still buggy and lack some features but are already very fast and gives you the most recent android experience.

It's up to you to find the one that fits your needs.

One more point, updating your Radio can be good for your battery too.

I personnaly use 26.14.04.28_M without any issue. (but I may update it now, as I've just flashed Jelly time ;))
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prospect565:
I think i'll go for the cyanogen 7.0, does it give a better battery life?
