Well, Racht's Floyo was my first ROM, so I actually experienced Froyo. Froyo isn't bad. I'm not disregarding the use of it. It just lacks all the GB features we are used to.

I agree with the advantages of Froyo, it really is more compatible with X8. Just look at ICS. It's not meant for X8 and it obviously can't compete with GB or Froyo, but people still want it...
[XPERIA X8 General] stelios97:

JB Mini Project is also a ROM! Why isn't listed on the poll?
[XPERIA X8 General] stelios97:
also you can't compare gb with ics or jb!

[XPERIA X8 General] Diamondback:
I think I have to close this here now.

Comparing ROMs is not only pointless but also quite a bit disrespecting to the devs. The majority of developers here spent quite some time to make their own ROMs and it's not fair or encouraging if their own ROM gets 'downvoted'.

Everyone has different needs so by calling a ROM the 'best' some people might not try out other ROMs which might fit them better in the end.

So please, if you have your favorite ROM that's fine, but please keep this opinion to yourself.

Closed.

EDIT: The OP asked me to include his apology here. He didn't intend to disrespect anyone, so here is a quote from him:

So far we have an excellent WIP on cm10 but nothing yet (that works) on a simple cleaned up non AOSP rom. There have been a few attempts by individuals who do not own the 8013 and they have been unusable.

I thought by now we might have a few from established developers.

Lol and before anyone suggests i just do one myself, unless you want a $500 paperweight you dont want to go there. :)

Can you install zip files on your phone using cwm without connecting to cpu? With a file manager of course. Sorry I'm new and always wondered that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
The only stupid question is one you ask without reading and researching in an effort to find the answer yourself first. Whether that applies here is something only you will know.

That being said, what you're talking about is called flashing, and is one of the most basic functions of CWM (or any recovery). You can do it, but only if the ZIP you're installing is flashable. If you try to install a non-flashable ZIP through CWM, you will cause serious mayhem and may brick your phone. Luckily, virtually all ZIPs have flashable/non-flashable specified by the author, so if you flash a non-flashable ZIP and brick yourself, it's pretty much 100% of the time your fault for not paying attention.

Flashing is detailed in vincom's excellent sticky posts, which are required reading for anyone who wants to mod their phone, and should be read through and fully understood before one even thinks about modding their phone. You can find them in his signature, or you can just look at the top of the various Skyrocket forums and find them there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] feelinfroggy23:
I've read vincoms post and no where did it say you could flash a zip without being on a pc. And I'm not completely new I flash roms all the time what I was just asking if I could download the zip file on my phone and flash it. Once in a while your going to miss a thread or two. And this is the q&a thread. You can ask anything you want. YOU Didn't have to reply. So the only stupid thing here is you buddy. Thanks though :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
Mods: we've resolved this amongst ourselves. It was a misunderstanding on both ends, and context was lost in translation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
I don't get the question.. I've never flash anything while connected to my PC except the first time when I used Odin. I flash stuff every day without being connected to a pc.. That's sort of the point of CWM. However, I would recommend Sk8's newest touch CWM instead of the official version.

Holy derp sound like some bad attitudes I feel like reporting
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Mike:
I think he is referring to getting the files on his phone without first downloading on computer and then transferring over. My understanding is that he wants to directly download files to the phone and move to SD with a file manager

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] clip1003:
I think the answer to your question, if I understand it right, is yes. As long as it is a flashable zip you can use cwm, twrp or even ROM manager. The only issue, for me anyways, is finding the file once it's downloaded. It should go to the downloads folder but sometimes mine goes to my external SD card. Just a challenge and I usually accept and win. Hope that's what you're after.

shame you can tell it that its a different phone yet you can not change the OS ... never mind will have to wait for programmers to get there act together.

Thanks anyway
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gb.yolo:
You can, by decompiling the .apk file and changing the 'if' statement that check for your OS in I don't know what smali file. If you've never dealt with android reversing, I say leave your app as it is and downgrade to ICS if you really need it.

However I think that if the programmers checked for the os and if it's not ICS then the app shouldn't load, there is a reason behind it. Reversing it and changing smali files could remove that check, but nobody can assure you that the app will run on ICS.
[General Questions and Answers] redcitrus:
I have an old HTC Desire, which I've rooted and installed Cyanogenmod 7.2.0.1-bravo. It works fine, but I'm running out of space in the onboard memory.

Is there any way to prevent Google Market updating to Google Play? This takes 9Mb of space on my phone, and is preventing me from updating any of the apps I have installed. When I am alerted to the fact that there are app updates, I go to the market app and this then updates automatically to Google Play, taking 9Mb of space and preventing me from updating any of the other apps. I'm not interested in updating to Google Play, I just want to be able to update the applications I've already bought.

I've tried freezing the market updater using Titanium, and also the command "pm disable com.android.vending.updater" under su in the terminator emulator. Neither seems to work.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ploone:
Hey fellas,

Finally got my hands on the SGP Curved Crystal for the Galaxy S3. This is a full coverage screen protector similar to the Tridea True Shield, but I quickly realized this is a better product. Installation was very simple and the results are incredible! Fit and finish is fantastic, covering the whole display and only having cutouts for the speaker, home button and front facing camera. Clarity is great as well, although it shows a little fingerprinting on it. For my personal use, this is terrific and I highly recommend you watch the video below and see if it's a fit for you!

Check out the video below for all info;

[YOUTUBE]EvqAAInbDdU[/YOUTUBE]
[Galaxy S III Accessories] liamR:
Thank you for the excellent video.

What about the scratches ? Does it scratch like the SGP Ultra Nano Clear ?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] azsamsancho:
So what is the right screen protector if you are using a TPU case?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ploone:
Not as bad as it, no. They are mostly hairline scratches. Some users reported that theirs 'dented' if you pushed your nails into it too hard, although I haven't experienced that problem.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ploone:
You'll be fine with mostly ANY other screen protector, seeing as they aren't made for full coverage.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TheInvisibleBoy:
Great review, would you happen to know if the screen protector would have any problem with the SGP Neo Hybrid? I'm guessing it shouldn't since they're both SGP products. I'm looking for a screen that offers full screen protection so I might end up picking this up or the glas.t that they have up for sale.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ploone:
Nope - it works perfect! As a matter of fact, I'm using that combo right now.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] babydo:
Dents?

I'm wondering how it will hold up a few days from now, please keep us updated! The denting problem seems pretty common, though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ploone:
I've had the shield on for 10 days or so and I haven't experienced a wide-spread issue with the denting, this may be just because my nails are cut very short. However, when I read the issues some were having, I decided to purposely try and dent the screenshield and see if any blemishes would be permanent or if they would disappear. Most screen protectors have self-healing properties and this one did the same for the forced dents I created. Seems any permanent dents would come from applying extreme pressure to the shield.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] caseyatbt:
Would an Otterbox work or is it like a TPU case and cause peeling?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sUsH667:
a question i forgot...

i forgot one question:

is it in any way possible to mod an already compiled SystemUI.apk, meaning adding this mod to a ready rom?

maybe with apktool-de- and re-compiling?

i did decompile SystemUI.apk successfully, but get no .java-files in result, only the respective .smali-files, so i don't know how to go on from here, if at all...

any help appreciated, and if it is not possible, well, it's not possible, my bad.

greetz,

sUsH
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] XYunknown:
Not possible, because you can't decompile the APK's one-by-one to the original java code.. Smali or Backsmali is just a replacement for the unprecise re-constructed Java code, to get a code which you can re-compile properly. There is also a possibility to get the rough java sourcecode.. But as this is not the "real" java source, it is in most cases not re-compileable. Hope you could follow me :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bejda:
There's an option within Virtuous Ten Studio to generate Java code when decompiling, but I'm not really into that stuffs, keep using some classic apktool way if i need to do something, and was and still wondering if we'll get the exact same possibilities and working results than when compiling from sources.. it seems so but not really sure and I'd like to know btw ;)

Good luck sUsH667 if you try :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] XYunknown:
As I said.. you can get rough the rough java code.. But you can't recompile it!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bejda:
Ah ok, didn't catch that "get rough java code possibility" point,thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sUsH667:
ok, thx to both of you!

so there seems to be no way of integrating this mod into roms, for which no source is available, right?

that is why i ask for the de-/recompile-possibility. if source is available, it's not really a problem i guess, or is it?

EDIT: i'm just guessing right now, if source was available, would it be possible to compile just the SystemUI.apk itself somehow?

greetz n thx for help,

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
The sensation and the sensation xe are the same phone, same hardware, same everything apart from model id. The xe has a different model id and the stock kernel detects this and adjusts the max cpu speed as necassary.

You should follow the Sensation forums. Sensation XL is different phone altogether

the update was applied successfully.

then i chose reboot system option and pressed power button
