[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VA3PFxdadev:
removing CWM

Question: I have both (CWM and TWRP) on the system and want to get rid of CWM with everything as I have backups from TWRP.

Can I just delete the clockworkmod folder?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
I think yes, this is what I've done when I was migrating from CWM to TWRP on my old phones.

Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM11
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
If you have backups for TWRP. CWM folder is not necessary. Just bare in mind that this folder includes all your CWM backups.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VA3PFxdadev:
Yes, did and all is well as I have TWRP back-ups. Thanks!

long story short, my husband dropped my phone and corner hit the pavement. still working but the corner is slightly gapping. i tried to snap it close it but it won't close. i am afraid to leave it like it is because water might seep in. any idea what tools i need to snap.this thing together again?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
My recommendation would be a nice, tight TPU case. Failing that, I've never had problems with the tinest of tiny drops of crazy glue when repairing old phones, but I'll defer to others if someone's actually used a tool to rebuild a case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] evil_ryu:
The thing with crazy glue it leaves that white residue sometimes, I'd do the tight tpu case

Duck tape if all else fails :P j/k
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
I'd never advocate introducing crazy glue to phones, but if you get the gelatinous kind and use the tiniest of tiny amounts on a thumbtack, wipe off any excess with a little piece of paper towel right away and either tape it together tightly or hold it in place for 5 minutes or so, you can make it look like nothing's happened.

But again, introducing crazy glue to your phone can potentially do a lot more harm than good, and may well look like crap. If you do it, any ill effects are your own fault, not mine. If it works, it'll hold forever and look great. Always the potential that it doesn't, though...

Thinking of replacing my inc2. I am seriously considering the GN, great prices around, but also thinking about the G3 and the new RAZR HD. I just got a N7 and love it, so easy to unlock and root and a lot of development, this is another reason I'm considering a Nexus phone. What do you all think go with the reasonably priced, easily rooted and we'll supported GN or spend more money on the latest and greatest. Thanks

Is installing Cyanogenmod on my Tab 2 7.0 p3113 like installing Linux on my Windows pc? Does my tablet have special drivers that control the hardware or is it like a pc?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohamedselim:
Both linux and android have drivers that control the hardware which act as a layer for interpreting software commands for hardware to understand it and execute it and most of the drivers are embedded in the rom or operating system in both worlds they are alike in many aspects
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3113owner:
What about charging and processor speeds? Are those controlled by the hardware (or system firmware) or are they controlled by something like Cyanogenmod 10? I just want to learn more about this stuff:D
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D'Anklaud:
charging and proc. are handled by the kernel, and each Rom generally has its own kernel
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohamedselim:
Both are controlled by kernels charging and processor speeds so on my s2 android phone if i flashed kernel named sayih i could detemine what current to draw from usb ports 450 milli ampere or 650 and could also overclock or underclock processor speed so kernel controls these parameters(processor speed and charging) as it gives orders to drivers which in turn gives orders to hardware to change behaviour of their work i think also the same applies to linux do not forget that android has a modified linux kernel so architecture are similar
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3113owner:
Does Cyanogenmod use the same processor speeds and charging voltages as stock Samsung 4.0.4 ?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D'Anklaud:
Cyanogenmod's official kernel within the install zip is stock proc./charging settings, but there are some kernels floating around that have more options

Ah, who's kernel did you want? CM 10? go to here http://www.get.cm/?device=p3113 (boot.img form, i have yet to bother digging up Cyanogens kernel source for reading/editing/compiling, as im looking at original source at googles pages)

I was wondering about the stock CM10 kernel.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D'Anklaud:
last i heard ,was that the cyanogenmod team compiled there kernels from the google repo's sources left untouched from manufactures (mostly)these are some of the pages im playing in right now, im new to the OMAP arch , and googles repos , and i still have to download/install the sourcery compiler, so i cant help much farther than this link for jellibean kernel https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/samsung/+/android-samsung-3.0-jb

Rom Partition

Hello!

I'm using safestrap 3.05 on my Droid 3 (XT860). I've partitioned my 32gb card into a FAT32 partition w 29gb for general archives and a 3gb ext3 partition for apps and phone data.

My stock ROM recognized the ext3 partition, and i can move my apps there, but the JB and ICS ROMs (CM's) doesn't recognize this partition.

I've read in some threads that CM9 doesn't recognize this kind of partition in SD Card. This information proceed?

That would be nice, I have been avoiding updating to LTE, because I still have Unlimited data.

Unless I missed a trick to keep unlimited?

Thinking of leaving Verizon for Pageplus, 5gb for $69.95 verus 79.95 with Verizon and only 2gb.
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
I was using it until I upgraded from the D3 to the Droid Maxx on Tuesday.
[Motorola Droid 3] Tomsgt:
Yeah that is true if you update to 4g then you will loose unlimited. :(

[Motorola Droid 3] Tomsgt:

[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
might have to look @ the edge again.

I have internet @ home but it's not very reliable, and the only real option for me.

No 4g in my area, 3g isn't even reliable, but a phone upgrade would be nice.
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
It's a great phone so far. I'm using it more than I did the Droid 3, which I tended to not use for some things in order to preserve battery life, and for the last three days I am trending toward 46 or so hours of battery life (I charge each night while sleeping but I'm making it through a bit less than 18 hours off charge with about 60% battery life left.

The phone is really large but very thin. I turned on the D3 this morning and it suddenly seemed small and hard to read. You get used to the size fast. The display has no pentile weirdness, but, being super amoled, is harder to read in bright sunlight than the D3. The active display is a nice idea. Jelly Bean is so much better than Gingerbread, and the Moto build is close to Google experience. The camera isn't great but it isn't terrible (though I'm not much of a phone photographer anyway.)

But, really, it was the battery that sold me...
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
Thanks for the review, doogald

I use my phone outside much of the time, so harder to read would not be helpful.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:

[Motorola Droid 3] fischerms:
Still my main phone. Have to buy a new phone at full price to keep unlimited plan. Only choices on Verizon for non-bloatware phone is either Windows 8 phones or Iphone. All android phone by default can not uninstall Verizon bloat unless you root it & Use titanium backup to toss the apps. For full price I do not want your Verizion crap on my phone.
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
All android phones with ICS and above can disable preinstalled apps. It works and looks to the non-rooted user as if you removed/renamed the .apk.

The new Droid Maxx doesnt feel too bloated. Most of the standard system apps are generic android, with the exception of calendar (the google version is easily installable from the play store), the mail app (which i don't use anyway), and I'm sure the dialer and people are slightly changed to allow the verizon backup thing (which i also don't use) and the preinstalled verizon phone numbers (which can be disabled.) I've disabled about 6 apps, so far. I decided to keep NFL and IMDB because I actually may use those apps. There are also a bunch of preinstalled Amazon apps, plus Audible. I may disable Audible as well.
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
the bloat on ics/jb is mostly annoying, but if not rooted it takes up storage space, that can't be recovered.
[Motorola Droid 3] doogald:
I just did an informal count. Including the amazon apps, NFL, and the apps I mentioned, they take up about 88 MB. On a 32 GB phone, that's about 0.3% of available space.

I've had phones where 88 MB mattered. On modern android phone, it's not so critical. IMHO.
[Motorola Droid 3] fischerms:
That is the oter part - Bloatware taking up storage space. My current Droid 3 allocates 2gb for app space on the 16gb on phone storage. You can disable the bloat but to truely be rid of it you need to be able to deleted. Most Cell phone sales people have no understanding of this concept. Unless you use the analogy of this: Buy a Dell PC and it comes with McAfee AV installed but Dell decides you can only disable it not remove it.

Also 700 bucks for the Droid Maxx is a bit high. A version of Nexus 4 on Verizon would be nice but Verizion screwed up the previous version they had sold. I guess Google wants no part of that one again. Current plan is to use the Droid 3 till it drops dead, maybe by that time Smart phones may come to earth (yeah right).

Droid 3 XT860 from Brazil

Hey Tom, I watched your video, download and installed safestrap v3.05 on my droid, followed all steps, but still was not able to flash the minimoto rom on my phone. It get trapped on a loop, does not even show the rom boot logo. Any idea on what gone wrong? Thanks for your time and sorry about my english ^^
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
you were able to boot to recovery, create a rom slot, and Rom install said successful? you can not flash over stock rom.
[Motorola Droid 3] Markfard:
Yeah, I have created a slot on Rom-slot1 with 2gb of space, installed the rom on it and got the successful message, but I was not able to boot on the flashed rom. Maybe a problem with the .zip file of the rom?
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
you should always verify the md6 checksum before installing, md5 is posted on download site.

Verify that your download is complete with MD5/SHA-1 Hash Checksums
[Motorola Droid 3] Tomsgt:
Nice MD5 write up every good. glad someone with knowledge is watching my threads for me thanks shadow. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
no problem,

It only takes 5 secs to verify md5

for most people it isn't an issue,

but if the file is corrupt it can cause all sorts of problems

---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------

most Devs post the md5 checksum in the thread,

and now some of the download sites are automatically posting them like DevHost and AndroidFileHost
[Motorola Droid 3] Markfard:
Thanks for the advice, I have checked the md5 sum and it matches with the system .zip md5, so I tried again, did all steps one by one again, but still got trapped on the loop. I decided to let the phone on this loop for a while, to see if it was able to boot on the rom, but my device suddently stopped and is not turning on now, hahaha. It's not charging, and when I put it on the data cable connected to my pc, this (really cool, btw) white light appears and the phone is not recognized. Any idea on what happened?

And also, thanks for all the support. You guys are the best ^^
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
you should be checking

minimoto_v1.7.zip md5:ab49f54b0bff6bfa0e3362d584877dee

or

minimoto_v1.7_xt860.zip md5:33c2e4e2f6cfc41bb3de01370b444b69

that is usually a battery issue, may need a new battery, external battery charger, or a TBH Adapter

try using a wall charger, if it boot into charge mode let it charge, if you see safestrap option boot to safestrap, battery should charge in that mode.
[Motorola Droid 3] Markfard:
Hey guys, me again, sorry for this looong time out, I've had some internet issues this last month =/

Well, the new battery and external charger thing didn't worked, and there's no way I can buy a TBH where I live (small city, small country). So is there a chance I can make one? Sorry again for my english an thanks very much for your help =D

The Chrome browser has been using a ridiculous amount of battery ( around 20% or more whether or not i even use it) and so I was looking around the fourms and saw that if you turn off tilt scrolling in the developers menu then it will significantly reduce the battery drain, and it seems to be working for me so far.

Interesting post. Thanks!

I have tilt scrolling enabled, and Chrome doesn't seem to be using excessive battery (unless I'm excessively using Chrome obviously...) but I will give it a shot and see what happens. The tilt scrolling doesn't seem to work anyway on my phone, unless maybe I just don't know how to use it..
