I need to know that how to make a cm7 theme Pushed to system/app can be made default so that at the first boot it is automatically selected
[Optimus One, P500, V General] _viren_:
ok... here i am considering your cm7 theme named Androdian.apk.... so open your build.prop(use notepad++), then scroll down till you find these lines :

persist.sys.themeId=Cyanbread

persist.sys.themePackageName=com.tmobile.theme.Cyanbread

these are the default lines of cm7 rom.....in the themeid= change the name to "Androdian"(letters are case sensitive i guess so... just to be on the safer side.. and write without the " .. :p) and open your androdian.apk and open your android manifest.xml and find the lines that have the package name... copy that package name and paste in your build prop's package name.. and save it...

thats all... save it(just another example: if you use uot kitchen and edit your cyanbread apk.. the uot gives you UOTCyanbread.apk...... so copy this name "UOTCyanbread" to your themeid line... and open your UOT's apk , open its android manifest.xml and find its package name... copy that and put it to your buildprop's packageName line...) and save it..

woah... i wrote a lot.. :p :D... anyways... i hope you get your thing done... ;)
[Galaxy S III General] Mattycee:
Hi,

I am not sure if this is the correct place to post this so feel free to move it to the correct place if wrong.

I have a Galaxy S3 I9300T and have been using various Roms since I got the phone. In that time I have come to really like the Galaxy Nexus Vanilla Jelly Bean over the Touchwiz loader and am hoping that we will be able to get the full Jellybean experience without Touchwiz.

Will they still try and improve the Vanilla 4.1.1 or will they only concentrate on the Touchwiz version of jelly bean when it is released officially?

I have used the latest leak from the 28/8/12 I9300XXDLH8 (4.1.1) and I have found how much the Vanilla Jelly Bean is better for me. Is there anything that is stopping a 100% functional version of Jelly Bean (Same as the Galaxy Nexus) running on the Galaxy S3 or will it be only variations of the Touchwiz version?

There are only really little issues with the Vanilla ROM on the Galaxy S3 (Such as the memory leak, wifi tethering and the camera being part broken) so I am hoping these can be fixed as I really enjoy the OS the way it was supposed to be.

In that regard what is the best ROM at the moment that is using vanilla Jelly Bean?

Thanks

Matt
[Galaxy S III General] watsa:
"what is the best rom" threads are usually thrashed here so good luck. There is no best ROM mate, try all AOSP/CM/AOKP roms and see which is better for you
[Galaxy S III General] Mattycee:
Yeah true, hopefully they answer the other part and not thrash me too hard!
[Galaxy S III General] zoot1:
Touchwiz is a modified version of Jellybean Android 4.1..Nexus JB which you are talking about is pure undiluted version of Android 4.1..hence it will be impossible to merge the 2..you can get a few features ported from one to another but a not good, stable hybrid as both of them use different framework..so either use CM10 or TW or a customized version of either of the 2...

Hope it clarifies...

Also I cannot comment on the best ROM as it is banned..try them out for yourself..read the OP and choose the one you like..
[Galaxy S III General] jetbruceli:
If u want the vanilla look and feel, get cyanogen mod 9 for a stable rom and 10 for that jelly bean feel but still in nightlies stages.

With the update coming, we are all subject to getting touchwhiz as samsung as spent many hours tweaking it. I like it once I got use to it but everyone has opinions and thats why we love Android

Hey you could check this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1674286

has all the roms in one place!

Prost!
[Galaxy S III General] watsa:
Samsung will only release touchwiz'd version of JB. Honsetly IMO TW is a lot better than boring blue, black and white if you are just worried about looks
[Galaxy S III General] Mattycee:
It is not so much the looks I really hate the Messaging App and the Dialer in Touchwiz and prefer the Jellybean version of it. I have seen that you can get the Android 4.1 Messaging App of the Play Store but I have not been able to get the dialer & contacts from the Jellybean Rom which I guess is the biggest part of what I want it for.

Those few changes and I believe I would be really happy with the Touchwiz version.
[Galaxy S III General] Tesep:
I think Foxhound has the standard JB messaging and dialer

If your looking for a good non TW JB rom, I'd recommend Revolution Remix
[Galaxy S III General] Mattycee:
Thanks for the tip, it has the dialer I like coupled with the SMS/MMS App from Jelly Bean. I appreciate being pointed in the right direction!
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
It amazes me how No Android phone maker will listen to its customers and make an option to install vanilla android.

If someone bought Samsung Hardware and sold it as Vanilla they would make a fortune.

As usual big business knows better than its customers
[Galaxy S III General] james11417:
Does the stock JB dialer have prediction? Like if I type in a person's name, it will show their number?
[Galaxy S III General] Jeddix:
You mean like Google did with the Galaxy Nexus?
[Galaxy S III General] Arsaw:
Nexus is vanilla android. But people keep thinking Nexus phone is Google phone, not Samsung. This is something OEM doesn't want it to happen on their flagship phones.

About about 2 weeks in running gnex (gummy.. now) but yes stock rom on Galaxy Nexus (gsm) is fluid if rooted correctly, by one click method... After all done you first root don't do nothing but back it up

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bryan007:
i have a nexus s 4g came with GB i update to ics and after that its just kept reseting rebooting sometimes when you start it up it just stays on the white google so my question is if i root and install a custom rom will that problem go away
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cpu.gastronomy:
First of all, you could try resetting the phone to factory setting (turn it off and boot it with the VOLUME+ button pressed all the way).

If you root and install a rom, the problem will probably go away, but if you don't need/want to root and install a rom, try resetting the device first.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bryan007:
Yea i already tried resetting it and everything it just does the same thing

Get an app for torch...those things you are looking for are gone because usually custom roms will delete stock samsung bloatwares to save space...:)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmikeb92:
Alright so currently I am using my phone very so often to tether my N7 when I have poor WiFi at school or work. I have an HTC Inspire 4G running Jelly Bean and using an app called SVTP which turns my phone into a WiFi hotspot. Works well, the only problem is it eats up my battery in the course of about 2 hours. Now I've heard that tethering via Bluetooth is more battery friendly for both devices. Is this true? If so what apps do you recommend?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexus Phreak:
Yes, it's true. BT tethering is way more battery friendly than any other method.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmgreen:
Does using BT reduce the over heating? As OP asked, what app do you use?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCKSTAR XS:
I use the default mobile hot spot app on my HTC Sensation 4G. I would recommend foxfi because it gives you the option for both wifi hot spot and bluetooth hot spot.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biohazrd51:
I just use the BT tethering built in on my CM9 ICS based ROM.

For me its:

1) Pair using BT

2) Go into Phone > System Settings > Tethering & Portable Hotspot > Check "Share Internet Connection" under BT

3) Go to Tablet > System Settings > Bluetooth > Options of paired phone > Use for internet connection
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psycho2097:
extremely awesome app- NFC hotspot free. Gnex to N7 tether.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmikeb92:
Perhaps I should also mention I have At&t with an unlimited data plan, but no tethering plan. I say that only because neither approach stated above works. Foxfi will not download. "App is not available with your carrier." And the Bluetooth in the settings also failed.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 640k:
Side load it then. Foxfi has a proxy setting built in (add on app), perfect from users like you've. The problem I have with foxfi is there's only one security setting and there's no way to disable ssid Broadcastng.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmikeb92:
So just side loaded Foxfi and its working perfectly. I think it is even faster than the WiFi hotspot. Now I do have a question. At what point do you think At&t might catch on to me if at all? I only ask because I've heard some horror stories about tethering without a plan.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Linophryne:
wouldn't using Bluetooth tether @ home from your phone using the wifi allow the tablet to have better battery life while the n7's wifi is turned off.

P.S

Juice Defender +Bluetooth tether lets my tablet go 3 or 5 days not having to charge. Mind u i use it to read @ ngt with the screen dimmed and the Facebook app removed(using only www mobile version.) I have to charge my phone more though.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stingfeelgood:
I use WiFi Tether 3.2 pre-1 with my Droid X CM7. Works great in a pinch. Used it while going up north this weekend to cache some google maps before wireless coverage was gone. I have the unlimited plan still but I would never use it to stream movies or things like that. VZW could catch on.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
I was having signal issues in areas with less then 3 bars for the most part. Sometimes I would randomly lose service for a few seconds here and there. My calls where dropped or the caller would cut in and out during the conversation. If your having similar issues then your phone is most likely defective.

I just got a refurbished SGS3 from Verizon and the radio works flawless compared to my VRALF2 purchased in July. I would suggest calling Verizon and complaining if your having similar problems because my phone was defective.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Software problems
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xceebeex:
Not sure how you can conclude it was your phone. Unless you tried the new radio on your old phone before swapping. Otherwise you are comparing apples to oranges.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
No actually Hardware problem, most likely the radio itself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
Ive been around the block here at xda so i know phone software and flashing. Software wise I tried it all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] got556:
I'm glad these radio issues haven't plagued the vzw sgs3 like they have the vzw gnex. Getting my S3 tomorrow. Hoping I get a good one, but my chances are way better with this phone than doing the refurb constant receive and send back like my g/f's Gnex. She went through 3 with radio issues before we got a good one. :eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
I'm guessing it just a quality control issue. My girlfriend has the Moto Razor which has an great radio in it and she never had signal issues. I was beginning to think that the radio in the GS3 was just terrible. After some time with this new phone its right on par with the razor as far as call quality. Her razor still has the slight edge when it comes to signal strength.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] got556:
Moto will always have the edge for the forseeable future on radio quality/reception. (notwithstanding the bionic....lol (but that was software IMHO)).

My razr's always had a better signal than any Sammy phone I've had. My HTC radios have always been pretty good also. Lets face it, Samsung's radios are their weakest link IMHO.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
100% agree.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marqus65:
I'm new here, so first of all: Hi Guys!!!

I got some Issues with the radio, too. So I tried some different baseband versions with nearly no result :mad:

I currently use the LH1 baseband. Since some days I own 2 SIM's from 2 different Providers (Vodafone & T-Mobile).

Unfortunatly I only have an old Nokia N97 for Comparsion, but that doesnt matter atm.

What I've tried to figure out was, whats the source for this Issue - the phone, the provider or the baseband.

Well, I tried both SIM's in both devices and tried a few basebands for the SGS3, with the result that I got a little better Signal with Vodafone SIM and LH1-basband, than with the same baseband and T-Mobile SIM.

T-Mobile: about -105dBm

Vodafone: about -95dBm

The Signal-Strengh on the N97 is nearly identic with both SIM's.

So my final result is:

Baseband on the SGS3 sucks but can be changed to may get some better signal strengh specific for each provider!

Lets wait what official JB will change.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aalopez10:
I just got my galaxy and where i live its a really hard to get signal area, but i have own the rezound , regular razr n maxx , galaxy nexus , and the lg and all get good service just tried this galaxy where i live at and lost 2 drop calls and text messages come as errors and thats in stock within. The first 30 minutes owning the phone like wtf
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
Its probably a little early to tell. I had my phone for 30 days before i ruled out everything but the phone itself. But I had those exact problems with mine as well.

Things that i checked for right away.

Network/Tower issue

4G Sim card

Different modem software ( I tried all 3)

Factory Reset

Different Kernels
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AlanD769:
I am on my forth Galaxy S3 for call and data dropping. I use my phone mostly at the same 2 locations, work and home and my data drops constantly on all 4 phones. I have had the sim replaced twice. I have 4 lines on my account one of which is a Droid Razr which was handed down to my girlfriend. I can't recall ever having a dropped call or data with that phone. We were in the Vons grocery store Sunday and we both wanted to d/l the Vons app. It took her less than a minutes on the Razr. It took me almost 19 min and the app is less than 2mb. My phone is still stock. Its a beautiful phone but I'm really starting to hate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] got556:
Maybe I spoke too soon about radios not plaguing this phone. LOL.

Get mine today. I'll have an iphone 4s and gnex to compare dBm and asu numbers. (Scratch that....can't find that info on the iphone (g/f's phone)) (found how to do it....not messing with it while she's using it)

Right now my Gnex is at -87 dBm and 53 asu and I am in a very strong 4G area.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] equisbox:
Yeah im having dropped call issues then the phone says lost service and then no sim card detected then new sim card detected and then it gets signal back. The messages the phone displays are not exactly what i stated but similar. I talked to some vzw rep on the phone and she said that i am on the edge of the 4g service area. And that 4g is fairly new where I live. Should that affect my calls though?

Btw i had a htc incredible 1 and it never gave me those issues...i feel as though the speakers were better on the incredible too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
Just keep calling back. Tell them you stayed at a friends house that has great 4G service for a few days or something similar. They gave me the same excuses. What helped me is that there are two other people in the house on the same plan that have 4G phones and they haven't dropped any calls. You have to be persistent and almost demand what you want sometimes but do it as nice and respectful as possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sincerity:
well i'll post the other side of this....I had horrible signal issues, tried replacing SIM, no luck. got new phone sent out, same problem. Coming form galaxy nexus with no probs. Calls drop, drop only parts of audio then come back etc. I am in the same places I have been for the past 6 or so years and never had problems until this phone. Can't get signal in my basement or my office, neither of which haev been a problem in the past. so if a new phone fixed it for you, consider yourself lucky.

btw what is a good signal in terms of dbm? in between work/home mine stays in between -90 to -120
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tmcasper:
I have had my SGIII for a few weeks now and also notice a lack of 4G strength, and I am in NYC. I am coming from the Droid Charge. I am holding off on doing anything until the JB update, if it comes within a reasonable amount of time...i.e. within the next month or so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
Basically, ALL Saumsung radios suck.

My old Rezound has a MUCH MUCH better radio than either my G3 or my Wife's Droid Charge.

I am talking about actual use, not how many signal bars are showing etc....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tmcasper:
hmmm...my issue with the Charge was not so much the 'top-end speed' of the radio, which was really good when in a good area, but rather the 'glitchiness or bugginess' when switching network areas, or with certain applications. For instance, I commute on the train to NYC every day from a dominant 3G area. When the train would switch into the 4G covered area, the radio would not automatically switch over to 4G until I would either do the airplane mode trick (which worked most of the time), or I would outright have to reboot. For the rare times it WOULD switch over automatically, the speed would be terrible until I airplaned or rebooted it as above...I am sure as hell hoping I don't have these issues with the SGIII...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
Contrary to a lot of posters, I actually LOVED my Droid Charge after it was all tricked out (my Wife is still using it & she loves it too)

I knew the stock ROM sucked so I odined a custom ROM & kernel to it on the very first boot (it wasn't even activated yet).

My point was that the Samsung radios are all inferior, I don't care what phone you are using.

I have one of my Rezound's sitting here on my desk at work right next to the G3. The Rezound almost never drops to 3G where I work even though it is a marginal 4G area. The G3 on the other hand is ALWAYS in 3G where I work.

I love the G3 & this isn't really a deal breaker for me as for what I use the phone for all day at work 3G works just fine. When I went on a 2 week business trip recently with some of it out of the country however I left the G3 home & took the Rezound with me. The G3 probably would have been just fine also, but it is so easy to just throw the sim into the Rezound & know if I am in a really sketchy coverage area the Rezound is probably the better option.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] equisbox:
The problem is that I am no longer at home. I am in college in Richmond and I almost always have full signal + 4g. I generally text and use data more in college than actually making calls. I did have one call drop but I wasnt sure if it was my phone or the other persons phone. When I looked at my phone after the call was dropped it was on the home screen. There was no message stating that the call was lost or anything. So i might have accidentally hung up or the other person did. The phone would state that the call was lost, correct?

Also, after I root it will the roms/kernels effect the way the radios work? As it do the roms tweak the radio for beter signal? Im trying to see if software changes that aspect.

I kind of dont want to exchange because wouldnt they give me a refurb? Or wouldnt I have to re download everything and set my phone up again or would they flash everything over?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toy028:
The area I'm in isn't that great. In the worst part of the house I get around -110. My old GS3 i would drop calls like crazy at -110. With my new GS3 I have no issues at -110. Around -120 you very well could have some service issues. Your signal sounds about right though

They can effect how radios work.

I'm guessing most if not all refurbs are brand new at this point. The phone is still so new to have repaired phones.

Yes you would have to set your phone up again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vtcats:
I also own the Rezound and the G3. How do you "just throw in the sim from the G3 into the Rezound"? They are different sizes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
I got an adaptor for $5 from Amazon that adapts the smaller sim to the larger slot in the other phone, works perfectly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] icomputerz:
No problems here

I haven't experienced any problems with mine, except I am awaiting a replacement because I accidentally flashed an International S3 ROM to my Verizon S3. Whoops!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] big time noob:
The Good:

I used the unlocker, and installed clockworkmod from fastboot.

The Bad:

Mistake 1: I was not logged into a google account when I used the unlocker. When the device boots, it says that it is unlocked in the top left, but I can't shake the feeling that it was not done correctly,

Mistake 2: I did not make a backup. I was coming off a factory reset, and figured I had no app data to protect, so why do a backup? I followed some instructions I found on the net, did some cmd: commands on my computer, and BAM: Clockwork Mod.

Mistake 3: When I could not get a rom to load in CWM, (would not detect update.zip), I started looking for fixes all over. Root Checker said I was not rooted. I tried using an APK to root that I found in a forum, that did not work either. The exploit involving using an app backup did not go through for me.

Mistake 4: In an attempt to get rid of Mistake 1, I thought "why not do a factory data reset?". Now, my Transformer prime only boots into CWM. I am sitting here looking at v5.8.2.0.

Any time I select "reboot system now", I end up back here.

I realize that as a total noob, I do not deserve the kindness of this forum, however, any mercy/help that you give me will give you several karma points.

Please help.

Any links you can provide will not just help me, but any additional noobs that are dumb enough to do what I did.
