[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natron888:
Same problem

I've read in other threads that deleting the stock recovery, or modifying it's filename, will fix this problem. Does anyone know if this is true? I can boot recovery through Rom manager or through the power menu. The only worry I have is if I ever get stuck in a bootloop, or brick. It is good to know about the usb trick to load CWM, thanks for that.

Flash TWRP, and use an app like quick boot to reboot into recovery.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharliesTheMan:
I use TWRP and boot to recovery through the roms power menu. I've been very happy with TWRP though, I use a recovery because of stability and performance. I could really care less if it's touch or if it has themes, so when I recommend TWRP it's because I've been using it so long on my transformer prime and nexus 7 and it has done nothing but work exactly like it should.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
Weird because today I tried to get into CWR for the first time since I rooted, and it wouldn't work. I got the red ! triangle [sticking out of the green robot].

I plugged it into my laptop.. [and btw I was holding vol UP/DOWN, press power, in the bootloader then selecting 'Recovery' then <Power>] and this time it showed the "Google" and the unlocked lock.. but then booted into the Android OS.

So I flash TWRP [using Ubuntu, and $ fastboot install recovery {TWRP-filename.img}. And what do you know. It booted perfectly into recovery.

So how do you explain that?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evonc:
The only possible ways to boot into recovery from a working system partition is by either using an app that reboots for you/terminal command.

To reboot from bootloader/button combination you need to have a USB connection otherwise it will freeze at the Google logo. This is bootloader related and not recovery related as any recovery (stock/cwm/twrp) show the same behavior.

You can try fully powering off the tablet and try booting by button combo and you will see it freezes. Using the power adapter will completely freeze your bootloader if you try, so you require a USB connection to a computer to get into recovery.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skunk2 DC:
For me to boot into recovery , I have to use the tool kit all the time. Is that what everyone is doing??? Because every time I go to fastboot and choose recovery (with my N7 plugged on the usb) I get the Android with the exclamation point.

Help,

I rooted my VZW s3 and all was good until i tried to update to a CM10 rom..

It would not install the zip file.. I followed all the guides about backing up the imei file ect.. and I used the correct recovery.. it would not install..I kept getting erros with the ROM zip files I downloaded. so i tried the ez recovery app and installed TWRP.. I like that and have used it in the past.. well I forgot that I cant restore a backup from CWM. so now im stuck bootlooping into TWRP recovery.

Any help?

I have a sony 32" lcd tv. I was wondering if it would work with it? My allowable resolutions are 720p and 1080i.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jeurum_92:
I am selling mine, it just doesn't work good with tv's.

On my Panasonic and my Sharp lcd tv it doesn't gives full screen, the edges are cut and that sucks.

Doesn't matter what Screen settings I try, no 100% of the S3 is displayed.

Auto scale, normally is the best setting, but not working out for this adapter.

For gaming it isn't such a big deal, but when your notification bar is only half visible and the apps been cut on the aidea and bottom, that is irritating.

I looked for reviews on Youtube and you will see many people with this problem, also many where it works just fine but the problem is in the adapter or the S3 which isn't working as it should do.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jeurum_92:
When you plug in the adapter and connect it with the hdmi cable you will directly see the it, there are not settings for the mhl cable on the S3 :)

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

Doesn't work, multiple times been asked before.

Only charge port, not as usb...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] harryville:
This has been tried and it doesn't work.

Latest idea is hooking it up to an MHL enabled tv(meaning power coming this way) and use the USB port on the adapter for otg.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jeurum_92:
Well that ain't gonna work, the usb has only power as far as I know...

So you can try that, but the MHL adapter is not designed to use it like that. It needs the power via the usb connector.

But maybe, maybe you can get power via tv...

Send from my GT-I9300 with Tapatalk
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kronium:
Yeah, newer TVs are designed to charge via MHL, though not sure if the official Samsung adapter supports it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] harryville:
If you have an MHL enabled tv, the power comes from the tv so the USB on the adapter doesn't need to be used for power, hence I said you could try to connect and otg cable there instead.

It you have an MHL enabled tv then you don't need an adapter but just a cable like this instead

http://goo.gl/qTB1S
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jeurum_92:
I know, but I don't think the charge port will work as otg....

As far as I know it is only for charge, and doesn't have the rest of the usb working.

I even doubt if when it has a full functional usb port, MHL allows to use MHL both with usb on the same time...

You could try editing this line in your build.prop.

Mine was worse than yours and I now get 2-4 mb uplink pretty consistantly.

Reboot after changing the value. Then test.

Use root explorer or super manager to browse to the file and edit it if possible. And always have a recent nandroid handy...just in case.

Also data problem

I hope this post is okay to be here. Can't find help anywhere else. I am running Wicked_JB v2. My baseband is T999UVLJ4. On T-mobile in Georgia, USA. This is about the 4th custom ROM I've had on my Galaxy S3. I really like it because it is custom but keeps some TouchWiz features that I actually like. My problem is that now the data signal in the notification bar is showing G where I used to always get Edge. I'm not sure if the G is misleading and I'm still on Edge or if I am truly not getting Edge service. I haven't yet been to an area where I used to get 3G, so I don't know if this is working. I have no problem with WiFi. I didn't flash any different kernel or radio. I'm not super comfortable with that. If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it. I am loving this ROM and hope I can get this small problem resolved.

Can't answer all your questions but I don't think you need to worry that much about how you charge your battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
Li-ion batteries do not need to be calibrated and no need to worry about when and how you charge. Old NiCad batts had memory retention and would need to be cycled from time to time. However, the very worst thing you could do to a Li-ion battery is discharge it to the point that the device turns off.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4570d0n:
I just stumbled across this thread. The issue is that its not just simple status bar transparency. That's easy, and it's already in the settings menu in ROM Control for AOKP. With MIUI though, you can have the status bar as totally transparent when viewing the launcher/desktop, but it's not transparent, or it's semi-transparent when you are viewing apps like the browser or when viewing the lock screen. So the question is, how could one implement different status bar settings for different views as it is implemented in MIUI?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atljatl:
I was really just trying to find a way to implement a clear status bar on the desk top/launcher on GB aosp roms (specifically, on decks reloaded.) I wasn't so concerned with the status bar in apps, browser, etc. I've tried uot kitchen which was mentioned above, but wasnt successful. as to why it wouldn't work, I don't know.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] life:

we are actually talking about the statusbar and making it transparent. in reloaded there is an app for the battery bar and is simple to adjust. but in the rom it has a ICS-like statusbar (all black with the ics-blue signal bars and battery icon and what not). What atljatl is wanting is the entire statusbar to be transparent. Like in the miui and some sense roms that have had the flashable zips to make transparent statusbar.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
On cm variant roms like decks and cm7 etc you can make the status bar transparent by building a theme manager apk. This can be done by pulling cyanbread.apk or androidian.apk from the /system/app folder on the rom and then using uot kitchen to make your changes, upload the apk and then create the theme, pick it up from kitchen downloads, extract the apk, move it to your SD card and install like a normal apk or copy paste to system/app or push it to system/app using adb if you move it to system/app set the permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot, go to theme manager choose the theme, hit apply then apply anyway and reboot you now have your theme installed and selected which will give you all of the new modifications you made. If you have a theme manager theme u like you can use its apk as a base in uot as well to keep the status bar icons and anything you don't make changes too will still be the same

Did u use the theme manager apk, or try to use the systemui.apk and framework-Res.apk? Reason I ask is because on cm roms with theme manager the theme manager theme will override the the systemui and framework-res modification
