[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nxxx:
I'm going to make this kind've brief and to the point:

So I have LTE extended coverage in my area and I get about 1 bar of 3G at my house. It wasn't that big of a deal until my sister purchased an unlocked Razr MAXX to replace her HTC Incredible. So my sister powers on her Razr and pops in the sim card. I look in the top right hand corner and see 3 bars of 4G!?!! WTH? I immediately sign her in on Google Play and download the Speed Test app. I do a speed test and she gets 8 down and 6 up compared to my 1 down and .5 up.

I never really noticed any serious difference between the GNex radios to any other phone because I didn't have anything to compare it to. Now I'm wondering, is everybody's Nexus this bad? Should I get a replacement one?

If I was able to give it to Verizon and trade for a Razr Maxx I would definitely do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] switchblade5984:
I think Moto has their Radio's Down.... My bionic had 3-4 bars of 4g, where my Nexus has 2 bars of 3g.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theredspecial:
Motorola radios have always been superior. I'd take a Razr Maxx if I didn't have such a problem with a non-removable battery.

Call Verizon, explain your situation. The poor radios are a known issue with Verizon, any CSR who is honest/knowledgeable will tell you that. They would most likely be willing to send you a Razr, but probably not a Maxx. When I first started having problems I was told I could have anything but a S III or a Maxx.

Personally I would try another Nexus to see if you can get a good one, but it's literally just rolling the dice. If you have a problem with that one then they would send you a Razr, no questions asked. You could try to push them a little for a Maxx.

I really wish I could just have a working Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nxxx:
Thanks. Has anyone been able to get a Razr MAXX from Verizon?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] masully84:
I've gotten better download speeds in my area (Pittsburgh) than your sisters motorola, easily double the download speed. Point being the reception in your area might not be the greatest so I wouldn't totally put it on the Nexus.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jre1981:
Does anyone know if there is a way to Hide/Toggle status bar in Big mode (or middle mode) on the Paranoid Android ROM? I tried the Check "Auto Hide" in Settings, System, Statusbar, but it does not go away. Even installed Apex/Nova launchers and set a gesture to toggle but that does not work either. I really love this ROM but I posted this question in the ROMs forum and received no response (probably because there were many other questions of a higher priority) but no one responded. Any help is appreciated but I can't stand part of my beautiful SLCD screen being used by the status bar when watching videos. (Iwas so happy when the first mod to remove the 3-dot menu came along) Any help or advice is much appreciated.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Walking dead:
In the power menu there is an option to expand desktop. Toggle it and status bar will be gone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jre1981:
Thank you for the info, is there a quick way to bring it back up or just hit option in power menu again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carlos3686:
Hi,

I am in need of a few answers. I searched everywhere and did not see anything directly relating to this specific issue. Similar but not specific.

I have a Sprint Epic 4g touch currently flashed to boost mobile for service. I was hesitant to root but I took the plunge and did some research as to the safest way to do so without breaking my phone or its settings.

Now that that is done, I want to take another plunge and tweak this phone to get the best possible setup. I live in South Carolina and the sprint coverage here is craptastic so maybe there isnt much i can do get better signal strength and faster data. But I at least want to get a rom that is compatible with my situation (boost flashed sprint phone)

I took a chance and started flashing different modems and prls none of which helped with signal or data. But none of them gave me any real problems other than one modem which gave me an error 16 when attempting to use Boost 411. <------ I love boost 411 so i went back to the default modem of FF18 and that fixed my error 16.

Sorry rambling none of that is my issue. The phone works perfect. I am asking some of the more experienced users who have took the plunge did the flashing and reported the problems or successes if they have any good suggestions for roms that I can flash that will tweak my phone to get the most out of it on boost mobile. APK suggestions are so welcome. Phone settings or mods that can help me really make this thing better even on boosts crappy service. Not complaining I know I am getting what I pay for. CHEAP. But cheap doesnt always have to mean crappy. So any help or suggestions would be so wonderful

THANK-YOU

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] grafixfr3ak:
Im sorry Im posting in here but I do not have enough posts to post in the actually forum category, so hopefully someone can give me some insight. I decided to try the Synergy ROM r66. I liked it. It seemed fast but I installed it because it seemed like my phone was getting very hot on this ROM compared to my original stock. (This is my second Galaxy. My first one would operate normally for a few minutes and then everything would freeze up and a battery pull was the only way to fix it until the next time. But during all this the phone would get extremely hot-so you can see how I would get a little "panicky"). Anyway, I decided to go back to my backup I made, but the backup is not recognized by the Play store when I try to install apps through a web browser. Only the apps that were present on the Synergy ROM show up on "My Android Apps" on the Play Store. Is it because I did a data wipe/factory reset? Would a backup retain this information?

Sorry so wordy.

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nighthawk34691:
My suggestion...use CleanRom 2.1...I used Synergy and mine got hot with alot of lag going between apps and the homescreen. If you are interested..give it a try...im running it and its a very smooth and stable build.

+1 on clean Rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] epagib:
Synergy comes with custom kernel built-in (Ziggy kernel). Its overclocked to 1.9 GHz as default after flash.

So if you have not changed CPU setting after flash that's probably why phone is hot. Its running at 1.9

Download System Tuner from the market and adjust you CPU frequency. Repost if problem persist.

....rule of thumb: always do a full wipe when changing to a different ROM (ie from cleanrom to synergy or vice versa)

Sent from a SYNERGIZED GalaxySIII
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nighthawk34691:
Now I will say this...CleanRom 2.1/CleanKenel 1.1 now comes stock @ 1.99 GHZ using SysemTuner app, that is also a default app with the kernel. You can customize your cpu freq, but if you run it at 1.99 and you put a heavy load on the cpu...it will heat up quickly. The cool thing about the SystemTuner app...it shows your cpu temp in real time.:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
The responses given in regards to the "hot phone" are great and offer good overclock info that some may not be aware of, but I think the main issue here is about where your apps are. Assuming that you were on stock rooted prior to flashing Synergy, did you do a full wipe prior to creating a nandroid backup or did you wipe first? All of your apps and their market links should be fully intact if you backed up your original rom PRIOR to a full wipe. If not, the direct market link to these apps would technically be lost on the device, and therefore auto install would not work, and the apps would not appear in the my apps (installed) section. Though they will be in the "all" section (swipe left) for you to dig through and manually install. I can't emphasize enough the power of Titanium backup! I suggest to anyone who roots to put this on first and learn how to use it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] GTTG_Atomik:
Whenever I'm connected via Bluetooth, there is a blue arrow with what looks like sideways WiFi symbol. Its blue until I toggle it and it turns grey. Only shows up with Bluetooth though. Anyone know what it does?

I toggle it on and off and it doesn't seem to change anything. More like a general question rather than a Note question, but since I use the Note I felt obligated to put it here.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
I believe it shows you when the Bluetooth radio is toggled on in the device settings menu.

Even though you aren't using bluetooth, the icon will show the radio being on.

Try turning off bluetooth in settings, and see if it goes off. But remember there is a delay, and it may even take a reboot to turn everything off.

Roms other than stock will possibly alter it's function as well...g

Edit :

I seldom if ever, use bluetooth, so my knowledge on the icon is a bit foggy.

You could also check the users manual for more info on how it functions ....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] GTTG_Atomik:
I searched for it on Google and couldn't find anything. I'm running a JB ROM, and it only shows when I have Bluetooth on AND connected. Toggling it seems to do nothing at all. If nothing is connected to BT, the icon isn't there anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dafoxs:
I had a strange symbol up there last week. Try this, download airpush detector from the market and run it. If it finds an app, remove it. The bluetooth part doesn't make sense to me. Give this a shot, if it's nothing just remove the app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fr8cture:
This might be a dumb question but does flashing a Kernel still have the risk of losing IMEI or just when flashing roms?

EDIT: Also if i make a nandroid backup will it replace the stock backup i made?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fr8cture:
bump
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DROID3R:
1. Back up your imei if you decide to root PERIOD.

2 NANDROID BACKUPS wont overwite eachother . Just keep a healthy backup of each rom/kernel setup you use. So you can go back and forth .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fr8cture:
Thanks, I do have my IMEI backed up but i was just wondering if there is a risk. Kinda on the edge about flashing more stuff since its working good but wanted to try some kernels.

If you follow the steps on this thread though (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1852255) you should be fine. I lost my IMEI flashing CM10 without a backup, and ended up having to re-inject in using QPST. I was stuck roaming for awhile, but was able to fix it doing this (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31028642&postcount=115). Bottom line, you'll probably be fine if you end up losing your IMEI as long as you have a backup.

I have never understood the appeal of the handwiring recognition.

It seems to me you can just type faster and more accurately. If your handwriting is good enough for the recognition software to work flawlessly why not just write?

For me it is a gimmick.

If you have s-off then there is no real need for flashgui, just flash from recovery
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
Why are you using the kernel workarounds with S-OFF? Just flash the ROMS normally.

Also, this is why people shouldnt use flash image GUI unless they already know how to do it manually from fastboot. Because if something goes wrong they are screwed

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
okay well the most basic BASIC solution would be to try and restore a nandroid backup, you're s-off so thats not a problem, otherwise boot recovery, use a wipe script and install a rom. After you get the phone going again, never ever touch anything like flash gui again, learn basic adb, read up on the features your recovery offers, learn to trouble shoot your phone using adb tools, from within recovery, just by using the rom, or hell check out the irc channels and watch the devs troubleshoot problems themselves. some of them are more then willing to help if they have the time to do so
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cmm67:
How can I restore the backup if I can only boot into bootloader? I completely agree. Hell I don't even want to flash another ROM again! I loved Meanrom....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] brandonmaze:
You should be able to boot into the bootloader. Power down the phone by pressing the power button and volume down key for about 15 seconds. The phone will power off and then press and hold down the volume down button and press the power button at the same time for about 5 seconds. Continue to hold the volume key and your bootloader should load. You should then select fastboot and then reboot recovery or recovery can't remember which it shows. The phone will power off and power back on and should boot int recovery. Then you can nandroid provided you nandroid before you flashed the Rom. If you didn't then just flash the Rom again no need to wipe anything Mean Rom wipes davlik already. Then once the Rom is done flashing you should be good.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cmm67:
yes, I can reboot into bootloader. When I select recovery it just reboots normally and then gets stuck on the Meanrom boot screen. Never opens recovery
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
I guess that means you need to fastboot recovery

edit: sorry if it seems I left you hanging, in my area wimax is the only means of internet and to top it off im in a spot that struggles to get wimax despite the fact that all around the outside of my house I can perfect signal
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] brandonmaze:
Reflash the recovery. You can download it from twrp website...the lastest version you should be able to flash recovery via fastboot using

Fastboot flash recovery (recovery file name)

The direction are on the twrp website. The lastest version is 2.2.2.0 .

Flash thay and then reboot the bootloader and then fastboot

Fastboot reboot recovery

It should then load into recovery

Long story short.

When SGS3 first came out and there were CM9 Betas, I tried them out, no major issues until I lost my IMEI, Odined back to stock, Restored no big deal. Fast forward to two days ago. I tried a CM10 Nightly, in which I F'ed up bigtime, Leaving me in the middle of work, with an inaccessible internal SD. Luckily, I still had a CM-9 20120719 Unofficial and a gapps-ics 20120429 on my external. Flashed them both had CM9 again. First thing I did was get Rom Manager, DL the 09-01 Nightly and gapps 4.1. Dirtly flashed it right over ( I intended on ODIN'ing when I got back home anyway) Boots up....

STABLE AS EVER. IMHO just as stable as CM7 on my Droid X (incredibly stable), better yet, no major bugs that many people have been reporting. Only minor issue I noticed was music being paused via notifications and currently that isn't an issue, but I've been playing with settings and apps all day, not sure what fixed it.

The reason I pose this question, is because in the Dev forums (which I'm not allowed to post in...) there are many people who say this is stable and clean, and many other people complaining about everything under the sun. My theory is that because I had to flash CM10 over CM9 I am seeing stability and no issues. 2 Days of love

Has anyone else flashed 10 over 9, and running stable? Has anyone else done so and had major issues? Am I just a lucky SOB?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Imatoasta:
I already tried finding out the status of cm9 but apparently it's a ghost ROM and nobody gave me an answer. There isn't even a thread in the dev section for it. The only thing I could find was 1 post saying it was a stable release but no links or any other info. That's it. Everybody seems to be drooling over cutting edge bugged filled nightlies of cm10 to care.

Yeah, I ran AOKP M6.1 until things started rolling on Jelly Bean. Only issue I had was no MMS.
