[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] caaznkid:
Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a stable ICS ROM for my GF that is similar to stock with optimizations and good battery life. She just got the note and the battery life isn't so hot on it. This looks like something that would be good but I'm not 100% sure:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1676086&highlight=stock+icon

Seems to only been deodexed and themed, no optimizations or zipaligned or anything like that so IDK if it'll be all that different from OTA.

This seems good too, and looks to be a heavily modified TW based ROM.

I did search and found no results so I apologize if this has been asked a million times. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I rooted my phone a few days ago and everything is working fine. I've decided to disable my camera shutter sound by renaming the .ogg files to .old, but when I select "rename" it tells me "insufficient permissions"???

I downloaded root checker and verified that I still have root and I do. I'm trying to use Astro file manager to do this, what am I missing or how can I fix this?

I just downloaded "Linda file manager" to see if maybe Astro was the problem, but Linda won't let me change it either. it just says ERROR

Do I need another app to do this? I've looked in Astro and can't find anything about mounting???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vetteguy112233:
After some research I see that there are commands via ADB that allow me to mount, but can renaming file be done without adb? If I have to use adb and mount this way, does it stay mounted so I can modify anything/anytime I want?

I thought rooting gave me full access, why didn't this happen?

I don't think astro gives you rw access to anything above the /sdcard directory.

---------- Post added at 07:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------

Rooting does give you access but you need a capable app that takes su. When it's rooted it doesn't automatically give you su but enables apps to obtain it.

use root explorer, go to the directory and mount r/w. u shud have the correct permissions then if it doesnt work go to clockworkmod and fix permissions and retry.

If anyone didn't know, you can put widgets in the dockbar. For example, Music controls(Tested on stock music app, Tunein and somewhat on Pandora).

This is how I've done it, not sure if other launchers can do it too or not.(Apex Launcher seems to work too)

-Install Nova launcher(I'm using the free version). It's a pretty decent launcher anyways

-Under Nova Settings>Desktops tick the 'Resize All Widgets' option

-Place whichever widget you want on your homescreen, resize it to the smallest possible option

-Drag it and place it on an empty dockbar(Dockbars are like homescreens in this launcher, you can have multiple and just swipe side to side)

EDIT: It seems the fallback to this is that you can only have one icon available on the dock. Under Nova Settings>Dock>Dock Icons set it to 1. This does limit the other dock screens that you might actually have more than one icon on. Also set all the margins to none.

Couple pictures of widgets I've placed(Tunein, Stock Music App, and System Tuner widget)

This has been tested on Synergy r64 and CWM10 8/31 nightlies...

I just downloaded it and tried it... it worked for me... Were you actually running Nova Launcher???

This is a fluke that I found so help me trouble shoot it... I may have settings changed that you don't... etc...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Legato Bluesummers:
Good find. Didn't even think of trying that. I've used nova since I first went onto ICS leaks on the bionic. Love the launcher. I just haven't installed it onto this get cause for some reason, and i hate to say it, I'm enjoying touch wiz. I probably will install Nova and try this at some point though. My touch wiz love can't last forever.

Pretty excited about this! never really thought of it but I think I'll give it a go!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Tazer2death:
Which widget did you use? I tried the 4x2 shrunk down and 4x1. the only way I could get it to work was 1x1 and all it did was open power launcher which i wouldn't really call widget functionality.

You had music controls or just a button that opens poweramp?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
I've updated the OP but it seems that you have to set the dock icons to 1 instead of multiple for the widget to go "full size" like that. It restricts other dock screens you might have something on.

Isnt this a nova launcher feature and they have to be 1x1 widgets

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kinaek:
Ive been searching all over the forums and the few threads Ive found asking this question do not really give any answers and all seem to be very old, like 2010 old. What I need to be able to do is have music playing on the music player and then take video without the music stopping. I dont care about sound quality in the recording, I can remaster later if needed. The problem I have is that I only have one device for both playing music and capturing video and there is a specific place and a specific time where I want to take a video of the moment, while also being able to hear the music that matches that moment. Is there any way I can force the music player to stay on during video capture? The video itself will not need sound to be recorded at all, but if it could capture the music in the video, that would be nice too.

Record video while playing music

Hello, I am running ViperOne 4.3 now and I absolutely love it. I was wondering if any one else is able to record video while playing music as prior to this (locked, not rooted, and stock 4.3) I was able to do so. I did not check this with 4.4 but then again it only lasted 1 day on my phone before I found this amazing rom.

Anyways, if anyone has figured this out or if it could be added to future updates please let me know!!

The only reason I have one is from doing an insurance claim when I broke my evos screen. Offered me a 3d and I took it. I wouldn't have spent an upgrade on it though. Same with the evo lte. Not worth a 2 year contract imo. I'm waiting for the next nexus phone or maybe something else if it really impresses me.

-MIUISense

-AOSP MIUI (I'm working on it, may release it sooner or later)

-ICS ParanoidAndroid

-JB ParanoidAndroid

-And I'm working on Flyme (Fly Me) OS which I'm working on now. It's from the Meizu MX and after scowering the forums NO Other phone other than the MX itself has this ROM, so it will be an XDA AND An Evo 3D exclusive (inbox me to run a logcat, it gets stuck at boot ani)

Soooo as you can see our lineup is the SH*T, and this isn't even including themes and mods. Just because we don't have a thousand versions a CM9 Rom with a different name and a couple mods DOESN'T mean our choices are scarce, we like clean forums and even though Sprint might not think it, the evo 3D is one of the most innovative phones ROM wise on the market period, and we ain't going NO where.!!! :)

Unified search is a ridiculous one too. Basically just being able to find a search item locally as well as from the web. They've already sued to block the SGS3 with this.

Google had this feature with Google Desktop in 2004- Apple filed after it existed and got the patent for it in 2011.

This whole thing stinks so bad- basically if everyone did what Apple is doing, you can just look around at ANY good idea in any product made by anyone, do a quick sketch up of the idea and apply for a patent- even though you didn't do JACK but look around and see something someone else made and come up with your own version of it. If you're rewarded the patent, you can then sue the person who actually came up with the idea before you did and take their idea! You just have to be first to file for the patent.

This really sucks for innovation, because before, A company might come out with something like Google Desktop and release it without a thought that someone else would patent just the basic idea right out from under them and eventually take them to court and sue them based on their own innovation! But now, that's exactly the kind of crap any company is going to have to consider before it can release new ideas. And heaven forbid you're a startup without armies of patent lawyers and billions to throw around protecting yourself from patent-troll based lawsuits.

Thanks a lot Apple. A-holes.

Exactly! Further more why is Google even making apps for IOS? It's as obvious as a huge zit on your nose that this about android more than it is Samsung. If HTC was the leading android OEM it would be them in court instead.

What would happen to apple if Samsung and Google stopped supporting them? They're already lagging behind in innovation. The iphone 5 is going to be a joke. It's clear apple is trying to kill both of them but they are acting just like the general public. Support apple no matter what. Smh
