Oh no ! Just saw this and was excited.

But I'm also on AOKP JB, so no luck huh!

Boy, I miss this one from GB's.

Thanks anyways.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] seanpr123:
Huh strange, and you guys didn't have to do anything like push the apk out manually or fix permissions right?

Either way I went back to ICS 7.3 for now (could not get very good deep sleep, buggy headphone controls) and will have to try it again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Reuds:

If it's helpful to anyone, since most of you use Gapps, if you throw the apk in the gapps .zip, it'll save you a few steps when upgrading roms. If people are lazy then let me know and I'll make one for ya guys

I took a look at some device's forum then I realized there is no more poor development runing than x10

look at hd2 forum it's as active as always
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
This is a question answered multiple times throughout the X10 forums.

Sony will not upgrade the X10 to ICS.

They have given it 2 major Android version updates (2.1 and 2.3) and it is an old model.

Granted, it is still decent and all, but life goes on.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] konoplya:
I have a Galaxy S3 in the mail from Tmobile right now, got it for under $200. Thinking of selling it and getting the Nexus unlocked from google. Now, I know that the Nexus's hardware is a bit behind the S3, what are some other differences in both phones? I'd like to hear it from people on here that actually used the phones and not some BS reviews on the net.

What would you do?

Thanks everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] viskon:
I would keep the s3. I expect the S3 will be relevant a lot longer than the Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GuestK007:
you could read the 30+ other threads here that are nexus vs gs3.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
depends on your definition of relevant..

more up to date hardware, yes, but I bet the nexus will be supported longer
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] doctahjeph:
The Galaxy Nexus could possibly as well receive official updates for at least the next 2 versions of Android. I don't think we can say that about the GS3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nattychris:
For me its all about the latest greatest software. Hardware is much of a muchness. I want the latest versions of android first, so I got the nexus.

Both are great devices though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patruns:
Of course you realize you will have to unlock it if you want to sell it to most people, will lose the warranty and T-Mobile may or may not detect the change in phones on a plan where they more or less own that phone until the contract is up. Right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
If the GS3 is already coming, I probably would just hold onto it, that's just me.

The resell value will be high probably around the time the next real Nexus comes out, then make your move.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] konoplya:
i saw on ebay that the S3's for Tmobile sell for at least double what i paid for mine. still locked to tmobile. not clear on your other points.

is it possible to put vanilla android like on the nexus on the S3? if so then i'll stick with the S3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bkeaver:
Yes you can load aosp ROM or cm10 ROM on the sgs3.

I have both and love both but if your already getting a g3 then stick with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ryu234:
You're gonna flash Custom Roms anyway right? Then faster updates don't really matter that much
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d.e.beatup:
TMO has no say on which phone he has to use. He pays the subsidized price which is recouped over the length of the contract. His rate plan remains independent of his device. As far as warranty, if you're able to root then you should be able to unroot and relock your bootloader (there are ways to reset your flash count as well). Resale value will be best though if it is carrier unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
WRONG...

not all the components have open source drivers so very frequently you end up needing to wait for source ( or stock rather) to be realeased in order for much development to occur.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] konoplya:
no, i was actually looking to put complete stock android on it. like on the gnex. i'm not into roms that much. i have a G2 right now and its completely stock and i like it like that. so from my understanding i won't be able to do that, so i guess i'll have to sell the S3 (unlock it first with a code from TMO) and then get the gnex.

are there really any huge differences with the hardware between gnex and s3? like am i going to really miss out on something that s3 has that gnex doesn't?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bkeaver:
Big main differences is better processors, more memory and better camera... outside of that not much
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrsbelpit:
I have the Gnex, my husband has the T-Mo S3. I have no regrets passing on the S3. It's a nice phone, but I have stock android with no fuss whatsoever. The Gnex software outperforms the S3 without a doubt (he's just got stock TW, so I'm not sure how it would do with a nice AOSP rom)

I agree with whoever mentioned the driver issue, the GTab got ICS 9 months later, and until it was released, no ROMs had cameras working. I'll take the Nexus over anything any day of the week.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidDavi:
I was close to getting the gs3 as well. Specs are fine but the development community is so much better. Yes we have cm10 for the s3 but how long will it take to get the next version. You trade some things away when you pick a phone. I will trade those specs for the best softwear and best dev community

I am getting a s3 this weekend and was wondering does twrp work good on this phone or does cwm work better? I'm on the t989 and I'm using twrp and it worked really good hope to use it on here if it will work. And another thing do we have to use any scripts when installing roms like super wipe or super cache wipe?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] David1239:
Twrp is the best recovery for this phone, you should install it as soon as you are rooted. Our normal cwm has many issues. Yes, you usually have to wipe cache and dalvik when flashing a stock based rom. When flashing a cm10 or cm9 rom you must factory reset(wipe data) wipe cache and dalvik cache.

Here is the link to twrp http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1809313

can TWRP flash cyanogenmod roms without problems now?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hucesar1017:
Twrp works for flashing cm10 but its not recommended by the devs. I'm talking about cm10 devs that use cwm. I use cwm and I have never had any issues. In the cm10 it states that the only recovery that is supported is cwm although some others may work. I like to listen to them and not do anything they don't recommend unless I'm testing something out for myself. I hate having bugs and no help from devs because I didn't follow recommendations .
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cobra281:
if you install CWMTR via the clockworkmod app, does the flash counter trip? i want to install CWMTR, but i'm scared about typing in the terminal commands
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrbmg:
I don't know about the commands and all that but I use triangle away for the counter trip. I have it set to run after every restart so I never see any counter trips.

I have flashed cm10 without any issues at all on twrp. And I have heard of people losing Imei with cwm, but no reported case of imei loss with twrp. Whatever floats your boat though. It's just my recommendation.

This is really frustrating, Its happens with the stock player and other players I've tried, it happens with Google listen it happens with Tune in radio, the music just pauses. I've searched online and some think its down to reception and signals switching to different transmitters etc, I only ever listen to music at home and have a Vodafone Sure Signal which gives full 3.5G all around my house so for me its not signal related, it happened on 2.3.4 as well.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Interesting.

Where do you see duplicates show up? I'm not running aosp.

The reason this caught my eye is because I've always had the issue of duplicate entries in ringtone and notification sounds lists, while there are not duplicate files in /system/media/audio/*. I don't think this is the same issue you are adressing, is it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] othermark:
It's a similar issue. Note the following items in the schema:

is_ringtone INTEGER,is_music INTEGER,is_alarm INTEGER,is_notification INTEGER,is_podcast INTEGER

The same thing could very well be happening where you have two records with mostly the same records but a blank '_data'.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Meaning it would be the same database?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] othermark:
If the duplicates are all on external media, yes, however, if it's on the internal media then it will be in the internal.db instead of the external.db as posted in my guide.

So if you're seeing duplicates with 'Whistle' showing up twice in notifications, there's probably a problem with internal.db.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Had a little time to play around with this today. First, I was surprised that I didn't have sqlite3 on my phone. I had to install it, using a market app called SQLite Installer for Root by ptSoft. (SHOstock2 v4.1.3)

I ran the query "select _id,_data from files WHERE _data = '' and media_type = 2;" on both the external.db and internal.db but in both cases no entries were found. So no joy finding duplicate entries in notifications and ringtones with this method.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] othermark:
The schema is maybe different in samsung based roms? How I originally found this was to pick a duplicate and look at the various tables and work backwards through the views and matching up fields.

You can always start with a select * from files and see if you can find where it lists the same name or file name twice. This should be easy to do on the internal.db with it's limited number of entries.

for the past year that i've had my sgs2, i've constantly had this issue with my phone and it's been a constant annoyance. i honestly want to say thank you for this but the problem is i got to step 1 and i went full retard. for some reason, i already have adb on my comp and i guess i used it for something at some point, possibly when i was rooting my phone a while back but i have no clue how to use it that well. i would love to try and get this to work on my phone but can you really dumb it down for those not really familiar with how to do all this? if not, i thank you for putting this up in the first place, i'll try to give it another go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bandit1210:
I tried the fix and it seemed to work until I pulled up ringtones a second time and there were the doubles and even triples. Frustrated that it didn't take I delved deeper into my files and discovered a couple unzipped (but not installed) ROMs that I had extracted just to look at. Deleted them and problem solved. Did I mention I'm a noob, lol?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ender127:
ok, is there anyway to undo all of this because i have a feeling this might have caused my phone to delete all my pictures i've taken and when i try to flash a new rom, it sends me into a boot loop and i can't reflash anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 122ninjas:
Flash to stock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] othermark:
You can "Clear Data" on the "Media Storage" app, this has the same effect as removing the db files.

However a boot loop is already beyond all this... You need to get into recovery to fix that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ender127:
well, i figured it was one of two things. after i did this on saturday, i tried to flash new firmwarm (10.31 task) but i got stuck in a boot loop. i can flash to another rom (super nexus) without problems and i can get to a really old nandroid backup. but basically you're telling me if i do a clear data on media storage, it'll wipe anything i did on adb? i really appreciate the responses by the way, i literally just flew out of the country for vacation and luckily i brought a laptop to fix this, but i can't function without my phone running.

I believe so, yes. At least that is my experience.

How do delete duplicates if the _data is NOT empty

If you have root and can put sqlite3 on your device, this works without scanning and all that silliness:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1847586

---------- Post added at 02:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

Sweet, thank you so much for this. I found that on my Galaxy S3, Zedge creates a mess of things. I had up to 5 of each notification and ringtone, all with the same valid info aside from _id. Here's what I did to pick the first entry and clean things up:

sqlite3 external.db

FROM files WHERE _id not in (select MIN(_id) FROM files GROUP BY _data);

You can choose to keep the LAST entry for each by changing MIN to MAX, which might be a better idea if you trust recent modifications over earlier ones. If they all have valid _data it probably does not matter.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jthatch12:
Can you confirm that the app is in the /system/apps/ folder? If it is, using an app like xplore.. you can manually set the permissions to 644 or rw-r-r

EDIT: Don't flash this using rom manager or fix permissions using it. Thats probably where things are going wrong. Use Clockwork Recovery to flash the zip, then fix the permissions there. Unfortunately your the only one having issues :(
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] savagemoonlight:
Finally got it to work! Did it using a roundabout method as described by Snalfio in the unofficial JB thread.

-Extract the TaskManager.apk from your zip file;

-copy it in system/app;

-manually set permissions rw- r-- r--;

and tadaa, it magically spawned in the apps drawer. I've flashed the 0810 japps, maybe its causing the zip file to be unable to be installed properly into the system/app folder.
