flashing a custom kernel like siyah will not wipe ur apps or data ma8, it will only add the latest CWM recovery to the phone, so u can flash it without any issues:)

thank you very much m8 .......The kernel just adds CWM and it doesnt change my ROM :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xbugzx:
I'm currently running on FF18 but I was wondering, for those running on FH13; have you seen a big difference between the two? Mainly battery life/performance?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hooover:
It's been reported that battery issues were ironed out and that the performance issues were also taken care of, but there are also newer leaked builds being produced, an indicator that they do not think they have an optimal build. Well there is the "exchange" issue some were getting that is still lurking.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
There were battery improvements in FH13, enough that I'd suggest giving it a try. Or better yet try FH23....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xbugzx:
Isn't FH23 a dev build?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
A family member has the Galaxy S3 and it is completely stock, non rooted and so on, and i know the phone does not need to be rooted to install apk files.

The problem is that i have copied over the apk file that i want onto his S3 but his phone, no matter what file explorer you use, just will not see the apk files at all, the fines worked fine on my Sensation and DHD and One X, but i just can not get the phone to see the apk files,

any idea's on what is causing the phone to not see the files?

cheers
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunglebp:
you sure they are named as .apk file and not .zip? you should be able to see the filename without the .apk in myfiles for example (myapp.apk will appear as myapp), you will also have to check allow install from unknown sources in the security menu in settings..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
yes its named .apk

i have not changed anything about the apk files from installing them on my other phones as i said, the DHD and the Sensation are both rooted but my One X is not rooted and that was able to see the apk file and install it, i seriously have no idea on why the S3 is not seeing them at all and that is after searching online for info
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
also i have enabled the use on non-market applications to be installed, but that is no use if the phone cant see the .apk files to install it in the first place
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
How you transferred the file to GS3? Is the file visible when connected to PC?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
I connected the S3 to the PC via the USB cable and transferred the apk that way to the SD Card, when the phone is connected to the PC i can see the apk
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunglebp:
Have you tried Supermanager and gone into the filemanager bit and enabled show hidden files incase its properties are hidden?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
I have not tried that, will have to wait until I get back home later.

Cheers for the replies so far
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowman77:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
never thought of that either, its actually my grampa's phone and he away for the week so will be a week before i can try anythin.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
Are you using the builtin file manager?

If yes open it, press menu softkey, press settings, show hidden files.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
was using both ES and astro, and nothing, what is the builtin explorer? never seen anythin like that installed on the phone
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
It is called my files.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
getting my files to show hidden files did not work.

what it is that i'm trying to install a game, there is a data folder that has to be transferred onto the phone as well, it goes into the Android\obb folder on the sdcard, i created the folder and copied over the files into the folder, the phone.... using my files, astro or es explorer still will not see that folder i created for the files or the apk file itself that has to be installed for these files to be used.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
also i tried it on a friends stock, non-rooted Galaxy S2 and it could see the files and it installed first time with no problems so right now i have no idea on what is going on with the Galaxy S3
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stiffy_Scotland:
Sorted, i know what it was, me being a tit....

when you open astro, it starts off in the SDcard folder... the samsung see's the built in memory as the SDcard.. to see the actual SDcard (the removable one lol) i have to select extSCcard..

Am i a tit or what lol

Cheers for the help anyway guys

Hello,

How are you?

I have a small problem.

My gallery app shows 4 albums I do not want there.

I select them, but there is no delete option.

The albums are:

- Wall pictures

- Profile Pictures

- Blogger Pictures

- An experimental blog I started.

I went to the account sync and disabled google photos, but the albums are still there.

Any solution?

Thank you.

Best wishes!

Use Root Explorer (download it from Play Store) to create a file called .nomedia in whatever folder on your sd card from which you do not want any pictures showing up in your gallery. This works 100%

CM10 Bootanimation

Just downloaded the latest nightly, has the new bootanimation that fits perfectly on our device, thought I'd share it for anyone that wants it but doesn't want to download the whole ROM or update for some reason or aren't even running CM10!

[YOUTUBE]ogp9f4_yEoU[/YOUTUBE]

Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?2o06igj8pcc0wzk

Note: This is not a flashable, push/pull/punch/kick it to system/media.​
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] tinyaznboi:
Dude!! THATS SICK!! also diggin the background beat. what's it called?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Woody:
Just an FYI. Instead of pushing to /system/media you can push it to /data/local and set permissions correctly and viola!! you have your CM10 (or any BA) to test out whether or not you like it. This leaves your original Bootanimation safe and unadulterated in /system/media.

Don't like the CM10 one and want to put a new one on your phone. Just delete the one in /data/local and either replace it with a new one or leave empty, as your original in /system/media will still be where it should be.

CM10 boot animation

This is a great animation The slight problem I have is that when it is installed (as stated) on my Htc dhd the phone does not automatically reboot.

Pls let me know what the correct permissions are, in case that might be the problem.

I'm running CM V11-20140619-Unofficial-ace

4EXTRecovery touch v1.0.0.6 rc3

and update the rom quite often.

If I use CMRecovery there are no problems but I prefer to use 4EXT. Any help would be appreciated.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Woody:
They are 644.

Just open something like Root Explorer and give Owner, Group, Other all Read permissions and then just Owner: Write and Execute permissions. Basically the whole first column down and the whole top row across need to be checked.

One thing that you might want to make sure you are doing is to extract the zip down and find the bootanimation.zip. That is the one that you want to push to /data/local and not the entire downloaded zip file. If you push it to /data/local, you should not need to flash anything in recovery.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Zawisza:
Many thanks Woody,

I had assumed that the zip was just to be placed in /data/local. Not realizing one has to extract the outer zip.:)

Could be broken in that kernel, try reflashing it and made sure the developer who makes it the change log doesn't say something like BLN is broken in this release. If these don't help you can try using an app called NoLED (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.led.notify) that allows similar function to BLN for devices without the notification led.

This is a random issue happened on my device,

is that Chrome always cant load a web page properly,

just show up a blank page,

when this happened,when i switch to other tags,

all other tags also show blank page only,

only way to solve it is to kill it and restart.

Anyone know what is causing the problem:confused:

PS.I am on ARHD9.3.2 and faux 007m,

dont know if this is rom/kernel related?:confused:

Chrome fault, happens to everyone
[HTC One X] mcmbrooks:
I think you may find it is something to do with Chrome it self as i have had this problem many times in the past on a variety of rom's/kernels

Seems like it could be cache problem with the app.. because if you just hit the back button to your first page everything should be fine ..but i could be talking rubbish.

Hey guys. I have a HTC Desire which is unsupported by Paranoid Android on it's list of supported devices.

Seeing as I've only got my feet wet in the world of android development by building CM from source.

I now want to build Paranoid Android from source on my HTC Desire. Seeing as it is unsupported from PA I have downloaded the PA source and I now need to merge it with the Evervolv source as the Evervolv source is the one built for Jellybean to work on the Desire!

Thanks for your help guys!
[Android] mg2195:
There's instructions on paranooid androids website or github...I don't remember which one....

Basically you sync paranoid android source then you add your device tree/proprietary/kernel

Then you build

It's the same process as cyanogenmod except you use PA source instead of CM source
[Android] thewadegeek:
This. Assuming they are setup like most other Android distros, you just pull their source, grab a device/proprietary folder for you device and you are good to go. You will of course need to fix any issues that arise while compiling but that is where you should start.
[Android] topgeardave:
Thanks guys! You're the best! I'll try it and if I have any problems compiling I'll let you know :)
[Android] topgeardave:
What would I do once I've cloned all necessary device files?
[Android] topgeardave:
Hey guys, I've merged the cm10 files needed to get it compiling. When I tried compiling I've got this error whilst building. Any help would be much appreciated
[Android] thewadegeek:
Is your device support by CM9/in development for CM10? Can you add the inline kernel building feature? Also double check all the paths/filenames involved here to make sure they are valid.
[Android] topgeardave:
It's not supported by CM themselves but another Dev has compiled it from source and I have cloned his repositories. Where can I place a kernel source inside my PA source? In the htc/bravo folder? And how can I add the inline kernel building feature?
[Android] thewadegeek:
Look at a currently supported device for details I'm how to do it, or maybe lithid can help you here. I currently don't have access to all my crap though, so I can't get the information. Have you checked to make sure your kernel is named appropriately and in the correct location? Even though it's deprecated that method should work.
[Android] topgeardave:
Oh right ok, I'll try and ask a few HD2 devs on how they managed to build it from source. And how should I name the kernel source?
[Android] thewadegeek:
You can name the folder whatever you want, it just needs to match whatever you put into your BoardConfig.Mk.

You'll need to add the following lines to is:

# Kernel Config

TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE := path/to/your/kernel

TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG := your_config_defconfig
[Android] topgeardave:
Thanks mate, I'll try that as soon as I get home as I'm at work at the moment. If I face any other problems, I'll let you guys know :D
[Android] keolawills:
I ran into that problem as well trying to compile PA for the Rezound, and it was just I had the kernel folder named wrong. I had to change /pa/kernel/htc/vigor to /pa/kernel/htc/vigor-3.0 but now Im running into more problems.
