I think poweramp is best. The dvc is unbeatable and the ui is great and u can also change themes. In jetaudio the 20 band equalizer is sweet but the ui is boring and there aren't a lot of options. Also try player pro.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] vondrach:
It's the best player that I test. I just need a player with a file browser ans userfriendly ui. Very nice app.

Sorry for my poor english
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] shoehorn:
The only problem that I have found with Jet Audio and PowerAmp is that they won't detect FLAC files, which makes it pretty useless to use. I usually use Spotify but I do prefer some tracks in FLAC.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
It says "It plays almost any type of digital music files you have (.wav, .mp3, .ogg, .flac, .m4a, .mpc, .tta, .wv, .ape, .mod, .spx and more)..." Not knowing what a FLAC is, I can't say if it actually does.

Just tried Jet, still like N7 Player better. More unique interface, let's you edit tags, replace album art with higher quality, sounds as good, better widgets. I bought Poweramp, but uninstalled, didn't like interface.

I just got the Samsung Galaxy s3 the other day and I am impressed. I was coming from an iPhone 4. Only thing I don't like is the battery life. So far I've flashed synergy 1.7, beans build 8, and Scotts cleanrom. Synergy seems to be the best on battery life, but I just want to know what others think. Also, I am running IMO lean kernel .01 on all of them at stock speeds. Not over clocked. Just wanting opinions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] killerT721:
Try synergy 1.3, best rom with excellent battery life
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vorfidus:
There really is no best rom, it's all about user preference and exactly what you do with your phone. Try them each out for a week to weigh the pros/cons (or in your case scope out the battery life), then go with the one that you like best.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vx2ko:
I'm anal when it comes to being updated. My personal preference is staying on the latest. I just want decent battery life. I'm already on 91% and I took it off the charger an hour ago
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vx2ko:
Thanks for the info but I've done that. They all seem the same. I think my real concern is the kernel. I like Scotts cleanrom but I wanna know which kernel is recommended for battery and performance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
All the ROMs do a pretty good job. If battery life is your #1 concern and nothing else matters:

1. keep screen brightness on minimum. Screen filter can reduce brightness even more.

2. If you use wifi, set it to sleep unless charging.

3. Don't use 4g. Use 3g only.

4. Disable syncing or data entirely and only manually sync when you need to. (Something like JuiceDefender can automate this)

5. Disable google backup.

6. Disable GPS and verizon/google location services.

7. Disable bluetooth.

8. Check and eliminate all wakelocks using betterbattery stats.

9. Turn off all haptic feedback.

10. Freeze all Samsung and Verizon related services using titanium Backup.

11. Maybe a mild underclock on your kernel.

At this point, you will get great battery on your dumbphone with a giant screen ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vx2ko:
Haha thanks man. Yeah I'm just stupud about battery. I pay attention to it too much. I'll do all that. Stupid giant screen indeed

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
I was having horrific battery on 1.7 with IMO's 0.1 beta. I completely wiped and reinstalled 1.7 on stock kernel, let my battery completely die and charged it up last night. Today I am at 90% after 3.5 hours unplugged listening to pod casts the whole time and texting and reddit app. Yesterday I was at 78% doing much less and unplugged for less time. I think when updating to new ROMs its important to do a full wipe and make sure if you use TiBu don't restore any system data. I don't have anything frozen as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Morocotopo0301:
I'm getting almost 24 hours with about 2 hours of screen time, so much better coming from a Galaxy Nexus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Deathbynukes:
What are wakelocks and how would I go about doing that? Which services are safe to freeze?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Atrixn00b:
hey guys i just got an s3 and im new to this ad understand there more roms. what is currently the rom with the best battery life? I use my phone quite heavily with power saver mode on and it still doesn't last me a whole day. im on stock and still have to root. cheers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
most roms are same across the board.. I would recc. synergy as is w/ziggy kernel. turn off 4g/sync/gps when not using it. :good:

CWM recovery is still intact.

Thanks
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
The salsa will never have 2.3.5 ota. HTC stopped at 2.3.3 and discontinued updates for us. well the stopped producing the salsa and totally dropped it.

that's why we have 2.3.5 roms that are not meant for us...ie no FB button that works correctly, no mirror or front facing camera.

and this is probably why noone is still running stock roms anymore

getting error 155 again and again. Used RUU_Europe, RUU_UK, RUU_Asia_WWE, RU_Asia_India. Rebooted to the fastboot screen myself but the RUU takes over from the white screen and fastboot menu and goes into the black screen with HTC written. Tried letting RUU boot itself but still same error.

EDIT:

I have previously unlocked bootloader to gain Root Access since I had S-ON on my device. Need help urgently. Can I revert back to a locked Bootloader or anything ?
[HTC Salsa] razasohail:
Now I have relocked the bootloader and tried the Europe Salsa RUU.... It is giving me Error 140 now claiming the bootloader version is invalid.

Hi..

Where can I get these files

system.img and boot.img

2. Extract and copy the system.img AND boot.img to the same directory as your fastboot tools "C:/fastboottools" ( make sure to copy both files )

[HTC Salsa] Saturn007:
ok after of hours of fiddling around with this, I have come to the point where I really need the system.img and boot.img files

my phone is stuck at the htc boot screen with white background.

I have installed htc cable driver and got fastboottools files created and did some googling and found out that the only other way to install this is by running the exe while in fastboot and have to bootloader "relocked"

I tried to extract them from the executable using 7-zip but can't see them there.

Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
in all fairness mate, i can't help on this. these guides were provided by others and has been known to work for us. i have not tried this and will not be trying this either as i have no desire to revert. what i do mention in all rom threads is this. take a backup of your stock rom in recovery before you tamper or change anything, this way you can revert straight back to your stock rom, no questions asked.

i would think though you may not have either installed correctly or its the wrong ruu, but i can't tell
[HTC Salsa] Saturn007:
I am not holding you responsible for any of my actions mate. I do appreciate all the info you provided here.

I attempted to do a backup but the SD card got full in the middle of the process. My luck.

I was just asking if anyone (not necessarily you) would have a copy of these files as I attempted to download the files from the other thread, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631121, but the links are dead. I was hoping someone might have them and would like to share with us. That's all.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
tel me what you want and ill get it, but you have to tell me which file to get it from and ill host it up for you. ie you want the system.img and boot.img but from which ruu?
[HTC Salsa] gagan313:
Hi i am getting error 140 aswell after relocking my bootloader..???can someone help me as im trying to restore and im struggeling...:(

any help will be appreciated but i tried some other tutorials but they require a zip version of the RUU.. ;(
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
you won't get a zip version ruu only stock as i listed rom wise. now did you lock the bootloader before trying to add stock back on?

if you did there's part of your problem.

unlock it again, go find stock.zip in stock rom thread in android development section and flash it....then lock the bootloader. if you lock the loader again please note root etc won't work/function correctly again. to have any root privilege's you require either s-off or unlocked bootloader.
[HTC Salsa] gagan313:
ok i will try that now ;)

---------- Post added at 09:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

nope... it dosnt work... it says bootloader version error

(which came up before..)

just so you know.. i am S-ON and hboot 1.8.00000 or somthing...

---------- Post added at 10:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 PM ----------

could it be posssible that i have the wrong RUU??

i am definatly on EURO but when i go through the ruu install wizard it says:

Verify that you want to update the ROM version:

From:

Image version:

1.28.0.0

To:

Image version:

1.12.401.1_r

could i have the wrong one?? or is this normal??
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
tends to be normal that, but just to let you know...i have only ever reset using the ruu once before and it took along time to do it! since then ive never gone back. ive flashed stock.zip which gave me back stock...but its not for me.

so flash my stock.zip nothing else.

if it is just Facebook your having issues with then don't just swap roms or go back to stock, it won't help, it will probably make it worse to be honest. im using a new black Facebook as i hosted in the thread in android apps section and have no problems with it.

just make sure you have Facebook installed and moved to sd only.
[HTC Salsa] gagan313:
thats just the thing you see....

for some reason, if i try the stock.zip i always have wifi issues as well as facebook issues and well... i have tried all the facebooks from 1.9.9 to the black one and it dosnt seem to sign in... evern after i have unin installed and moved to sd card using links2sd....:crying:

as for stock....

what i think is that there is a problem with my hboot... and error massage came up saying my hboot is newer than the one im trying to install... any way i can downgrade? (sorry for asking for so much of you)
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
no way to downgrade sorry.

it has been noted elsewhere that this Facebook issue tends to fail when its installed on normal internal memory or as an update on-top of the system Facebook already installed.

you can tell if this is the case by going into link2sd and looking at Facebook.apk, it may have a green updated next to it. you can remove this update by uninstalling it.

i don't have this problem as it works fine on CM7.

you can try and uninstall the Facebook you have, go into recovery wipe cache/dalvik and reboot, apparently this removes all traces it was there.

reboot and install Facebook 2.0 or black which ever.

using link2sd move it to the sdcard and then try it.

i am gonna try this on other roms when i can to see if this works or not.

If they do not know what partitions are, then why would they make them on their sdcard anyway?

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

My new Xperia Sola's battery drop 5% per hour without any use. 3G data is on, but background data is off (as i have started the power save mode).

Background running app only facebook and whatapps, is it normal that battery drop 5% per hour with screen off ?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
doesnt matter if backdround data is off, facebook WILL try to update the timeline in the cycle you've set it to. so yea pretty normal to me as the sola doesnt have a huge battery.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dwaipayanray95:
Same problem here too!

Even if you don't use your phone still the battery drops almost at a constant rate of 4% to 6% and that is very annoying. Hoping Sony would fix this issue with their next OS update.

But sola users have an extreme advantage of fast charging. Sola charges itself about 12% in hardly 10mins. Thats the better part

Sent from my MT27i
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pvyParts:
Hey guys,

5% an hour is 20 hours. to me that is pretty dam good. i used to get about 16 - 18 out of my arc S. with everything on.

Your Data connection is a mega killer weather or not you have background data on or not. it is the connection to the tower that drains the battery.

my arc is now just a phone for work and without the 3g on I get over a week out of it.

we all need to remember that these phones are not like the old nokia's and stuff. modern phones need modern charging habits ;)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dwaipayanray95:
Try this out! It worked for me!

Okay! I fiddled with my phone a bit to improve battery life and it did work! :D

Go to settings> Applications> running

check the applications using a lot of RAM and has been using the phones active state for long time. Delete those useless apps. Also apps which connect to the internet uselessly consume a lot of battery!

It worked for me! Now my phone discharges just about 2-3% in 6 hours. Its because earlier my phone wasnt going into deep sleep mode where it consumes the least battery!

Now its battery standby has boosted up a lot!.

I'm happy now!

Try and tell me whether it worked for you guys or not! :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aadaars:
Yeah. Disable Bravia display, reduce brightness, switch off data and WiFi, kill useless running background apps, disable widgets. I lose 2% battery in 6 hours in standby mode. I do these before sleeping and its damn effective. Also root ur phone n install autokiller memory optimizer and set aggressive values. This enhances phone speed and also battery is improved :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alevana:
And then you actually have a dump-non-xperia phone...

[General Topics] Rabenvogel:
Hi there,

I have the following scenario:

After taking pictures with my DSLR I want to plug in the SD-Card in my Asus TF101. Now I want to look at the pictures, organize the into different albums and automatically upload those albums to Dropbox. Additionally I want those albums to be created in Facebook.

I haven't found a way to do all of that in a usable way, especially with a UI for tablets.

Most Apps just take existing folders, but I haven't found one where you can just say "Take this, this and that picture, create a new album and name it like that".

Each album would be a folder containing the pictures. Afterwards I thought of letting the App "Folder Sync" do it's work, so that everything is in my Dropbox.

From there on I wanted ifttt or Wappawolf to create a album in Facebook named after the folder. But right now I can only tell them to create 1 Album and post all of my synced pictures there...

I would be very glad if you guys could help me out. I would prefer it if the cloud-service would be Dropbox, since I got 50GB, but if you got different proposals I am open too :)

Thanks a lot,

Rabenvogel
