Using ZergRush method, it will either work and root, or won't. In doing so, data, contacts and anything else won't be affected either way.

Root gives you the power to knacker your phone but if you're not an idiot and don't go deleting important system processes, you're safe.

So is it any good?

Read some comments and ratings at amazon.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pecholino:
well.. its not perfect, but overall i like it.

the phone fits perfectly in it and it's easy to use the touch screen AND the side buttons (its soft on the sides, so you can feel the buttons and press them)

on the downside.. if you have large arms the strap may be too short.

but if you're not a body builder or a fat man, you should be ok.

after you put it on, you should press hard on the strap otherwise it may get loose in about 30min.

but it's ok.. i recommend it!

Hello everyone,

So amazon finally shows some love towards the old continent androids and gives us the appstore. But the new version lacks 2.1 SDK support.

Anybody got any idea how to work around this and have some joy on nook ?

The older versions still say that the region is not supported.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] gfdsaorg:
Oh well ... modified the last version's manifest to install it and it worked, but no joy using it.

Could sign in with my amazon account and then get this:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mauix:
I'm just wondering if some one else has this same issue and if it has been fixed/worked around somehow.

I'm running CM9 and have a car bluetooth unit. I make and receive calls fine, but oddly, I can only stream music using Apollo and Google Play. All the other apps don't work, pandora, tunein, playerPro, powerAmp, AmazonMP3. This only happens when I try to use my car BT, everything works fine with other regular bluetooth headseats.

Using stock ROM or stock-based ROM (like skyics) everything works fine; all the apps transmit my music to the BT unit without problems.

Ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Illnevertell:
Reported already Bluetooth threads please search
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mauix:
Actually, I know some BT issues have been reported, not this one in particular. But my main question is if someone has found a fix or way around.

Since I couldn't find anything, I kept researching and discovered it is a sound routing issue in CM that happens with BT car units; regular BT headsets work fine.

I downloaded this app (sound route switcher bluetooth) that forces the sound to be routed to whatever you select. When I select to force the sound through BT, all the music apps transmit fine to my car BT unit.

This particular problem only happens in CM and AOPK. The stock or stock-based roms (like sky ics) route the music properly.

The BT problems have been reported since CM7 but they don't seem to care about it.

Hi All ,

How To Confirm That My Battery Have Problem And Need A Replacement ?

My Battery drain now is so annoying and drops so fast although i don't use the phone that much just let the WiFi for notifications

Playing the Music Player For 1 hour consumes about 13% of battery

Using ARHD ROM

New battery will cost me about 60$ so i want to confirm that it's the battery

Using DHD for 1 year now

Thanks all
[Desire HD General] xxkid123:
13% per hour hour isn't too bad, it could be a bad flash. Usually an actual battery issue will be drain in standby within minutes.

Although everything works well, sometimes a you flash a Rom and the battery life is just really abnormal.

You could also try recalibrating your battery. Use battery recalibration from play store (needs root). I recommend unplugging andletting it drain down to a few percent, you don't need to force shut down your phone.

Since you've had that battery for a year, how long was it in extreme heat? (30 celcius) above. Heat is a lithium ion battery's worst enemy

Finally, an unofficial battery from amazon will be just as good if not better for only $20USD. It's like an official crap case and screen protector for 200 USD, or more than the phone is worth, or a quarter that for a bullet proof third party case.
[Desire HD General] Hunt3r.j2:
Try using the phone only for web browsing. If you can continuously use web browser for more than 3 hours, battery is fine.
[Desire HD General] MohamedYousri:
Thanks all

Will give it another try and see how it will work
[Desire HD General] evo481:
i had also the same question, i flashed now a new rom and battery goes excellent...maybe wipe battery stats also plays some kind of role?
[Desire HD General] RayRayX91:
Just Fullcharge your phone , wipe batterystats and let it discharge , so it can remake new stats.

Also try a clean reflash of your ROM.

0. Backup :D

1. Format all partitions(except sdcard)

2. Wipe cache/dalvik

3. Wipe batterystats(if phone is on 100%)

4. Flash your preferred ROM

5. Fixing permissions(optional)

[Can be quickly done with 4EXT ;)]
[Desire HD General] Hunt3r.j2:
Stop fixing permissions and stop wiping battery stats because it has no basis in reality.

Fixing permissions only works if apps are force closing.
[Desire HD General] asif9t9:
There is a code to type into the dialer to see your battery health, or download an app called Better Battery Stats, and you can the same results.

Hey guys,

Sorry for the bunch of questions in recent days. I'm new a this while being fairly compulsive. Ok so let's make use of the ability to make screen shot. In the picture below, apps on the left are from stock touch wiz, and the second set of icons (more to the right) are from the TW SIII mod from pale horse. As you can see, apps on the right have much more space between them then on the left. Is there anyway for me to make it so apps on the right have the same space between them than apps on the left? It is very obsessive of me I know.

Thank you

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
from the looks of your photo something was changed other then just icons. your homescreen indicators and wallpaper dont line up. you can try changing your screen density to something larger to fill in the gaps. stock is 320. i use apex like ranger recomended and hide icon labels then change grid size. i use 8x5 and this makes all my icons very close(i also use text for icons rather then pictures). you should play around with it. pro version also lets you resize and overlap widgets so you can get icons close but still have widgets look like they should.

I have not used the guide to replace S Voice with Google Now. I have also tried clearing the app cache and settings. I am also 100% stock. It sounded good one day, and then the next the voice had changed into a very robotic sounding voice. Very strange. I don't know if they changed their TTS engine or something, but it's certainly worse than it was.

In my settings for everything else, I use Ivona TTS, and it's great. However SVoice doesn't seem to use it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Threezees:
Yep, this happened to mine too. I even tried re-flashing the entire ROM via Odin and it still reverts to that robotic lady. What I ended up doing was going to "Applications" and disabling the Samsung TTS engine as well as the Google one. Doing this allows you to use Ivona or SVOX. Not sure why S-Voice doesn't seem to go by the system settings. Anyhow, it would be interesting to see why this has happened! But I actually just disable S-Voice and started using Speaktoit Assistant which has it's own voice (and uses the ones on your phone if you like) and seems to be much better than S-Voice. Just a thought.
