[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuljit55:
has n1 got a stable ICS?

i have not been on the N1 scene for some time, had a quick look and the ics section is very messy, seems to be many roms i just want to know are of these stable. i find it hilarious how devs are working on jellybean when we don't even have a stable cm9.

any links would be appreciative.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrverplant:
First of all I would like to say that developers work for free and are therefor free in their decision on which project they work or not. I really appreciate their work in general and you should do so, too. Instead of questioning their decisions.

Indeed there are quiet stable ICS roms. The most popular are Evervolv's (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1366897) and SpazeDog's (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1813744) ICS. Have a look at the single threads for its tradeoffs.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunner1937:
Go for SpazDog rom. There is nothing hilarious in it. It is a very solid and very stable rom.

NB: Hilariously speaking, I almost thought that you were "moronously" hilarious, almost.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scurtin:
I've been running the TexasICE a4 ICS for several months and it has been quite stable. I average maybe one SOD or reboot a month. I've heard a6 (most recent) has data connectivity problems going back and forth between WiFi and cellular, so I never installed it. It's quick and minimal. Installed the Gapps manually to maximize internal space (I don't use the VideoEditor or YouTube apps, for example.) This keeps about 28MB free on the /system partition and about 42MB on /data. I do have trouble with Play Store updates to large apps (>20MB), even if they are installed to SD because the Store seems to need about 2x the app size in /data in order to install them. I don't blame ICS for this though. This phone wasn't made with 20+MB apps in mind. Since I have an N7 now, I mainly just use the phone for calls, calendar alerts, GTalk, and podcasts. I have very little non-essential stuff on there anymore.

Could you teach me how to connect wifi with WPA2? Cuz spazedog can't save the password I entered hence unable to connect.

And can't enable r mount after installation using su m2sd tmount <enable>.

Other that these two factors, it's a very smooth rom.

So after playing Nova my S3's gets really hot and this will actually affect it's performance (for example: 2700 quadrant score with a CPU score of 3700 instead of 5600 13000)

Is this supposed to happen?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Yes, I believe this is called "throttling", which happens when the CPU becomes too hot, it kinda temporarily downclocks so it doesn't generate so much heat. A safeguard to prevent it from getting so hot that it'll melt.

When the CPU has cooled down, you'll notice it has reverted to whatever clock frequency you normally have.

[Asus Transformer TF700] cedesmith:
Hi.

My TF700 has a faint buzzing / humming sound coming from the back.

I can only hear it around left dock connector or if i put my ear on the back side of the tablet around that area.

I think is screen related as is only produced when screen is on.

Does anyone/everyone has it or is some kind of defect on mine ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
No buzzing here. That seems like something is wrong.
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
Buzzing sounds like a short. Take it back.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cedesmith:
Kind of, actually more like a power convertor, like the sound you can hear from some laptop power converters.

Probably there is no short circuit, more likely a bad solder or a faulty component.

It 100% has to do with the screen because when the screen is off there is no sound even if the cpu not sleeping (adb, music, ...), maybe has to do with dynamic contrast witch probably many disable but can't test for obvious reason that i don't want to break warranty so please specify if posible if you stock rom or custom.

Unfortunately send back is not so easy as the device was bought from US and brought to me by a friend and I'm on the other side of the world.

Does Asus has international warranty for them ?

Hello, i wanted to update my S II, because 4.0.3 is slow since i got it. Till now, i read that there can be some problems when you update to 4.0.4, bricking or what not. I don't have any previous experience whatsoever, so i would appreciate if someone would like to help me. What do i have to do and not, to prevent something screwing up. Thanks.

SOLVED!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltimateAnas:
The process is simple, download odin v1.85 (google it) and then go to sammobile and find the 4.0.4 firmware. Once downloaded press the volume down+home button+power button at the same time and hold for about 10 sec. Your phone should now boot into download mode, press vol up to continue. Next plug your phone into your pc and open up odin, you should get a yellow box light up, if not then install kies and then kill the process and try again. After that is done press PDA and select the downloaded file from sammobile (extract first) and press start, that installs 4.0.4 on your phone! Now to install siyah kernel (to avoid brickbug) google siyah kernel and download for S2 and like we did before reboot into download mode and choose pda (.tar file) and press flash, congratulations! You have 4.0.4 brick-bug free!

Note: use siyah kernel 3.5.2+

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goober0122:
I originally posted this on the wrong forum:

I just picked up a US Verizon Galaxy S3 16gb and I am on the fence about rooting and the like. I have always been into tinkering and wanted to start learning to create ROMs. I did so back in Windows Phone 6.5, but I haven't done anything Android as of yet other than app development (and I barely have time to learn that). My question is with the possibility of the Jelly Bean OTA coming out very soon and I can only assume that the exploits that have helped the developers to this point will be patched.

I just want to know if I need to root and change the bootloader now or if it would be a safe bet to wait. Any help would be appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Read up on what rooting this device entails, backup your IMEI, and root it now (if you absolutely want to). It's a safe assumption that if you wait for the JB OTA, you may not be able to root for quite awhile afterwards.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Agreed, these devs will have the OTA update packaged and ready for us rooters right after the release or possibly before! Lol. Rooting now is a good idea incase the current methods change after the update. Plus I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for Verizon to release it!

I set right values.

Anyone know of any KF rom that would be closest to the experience found on Nexus 7?

Loving my Nexus 7 tablet, would like to get my KF at least in the proximity of that experience. CM releases have their own flavor, and I've even tried AOSP from lithium76, which seems semi-decent, but has issues and less dev focus now.

Instead of trying every rom, anyone have a recommendation?

Again, I want as close to Nexus 7 experience as possible, on my KF :) Love vanilla JB, at least as found on the Nexus devices.

The Galaxy Nexus has come and gone but it didn't intrigue me enough to upgrade to. While the NS is still a great phone, the hardware is slowly becoming dated and it's inevitable that most of us will get a new phone eventually.

Might switch to a Samsung Galaxy SIII whenever I get too tired of this. I can see it slowly fading away, being too slow for some things. With Jellybean it looks great but doesn't perform as well as it did with Gingerbread. We'll see whenever I'm too tired with it I guess!

A new nexus means a new version of android I don't think Google will be releasing a new version of android this year most phones haven't even received ICS yet let alone jb just my opinion tho
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Not really. They've timed it in the past, but it doesn't expressely mean a new version I believe.

Even then, Nexus One released with 2.1 Eclair, while Nexus S released with 2.3 Gingerbread. Not exactly a leap forward as big as Galaxy Nexus with Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.

The first Google device was still the G1, released in October 2008 with Android 1.6. Old school haha!

Yes, but some version were incremental updates rather than absolutely new OS. The names changed, but very little did in the background from Eclair to Froyo to Gingerbread, as I said. Nothing stops them from releasing 4.2 and calling it Key Lime Pie...

[Optimus One, P500, V General] wktra:
I love XDA and I respect the mods, but I think the ban on "which is the best ROM" threads is horsesh**t.

Members should be allowed to ask silly questions, especially in general. And I, for one, don't think there is a problem with most "which rom is best" threads. I say "most" because I do agree that some contributors to those threads don't cite specific reasons as to why one rom is better than another. They just post stuff like "GINGERBLURB IS KING." I hate that, but for every one of those posts, there are two or three from people who cite specific reasons why they prefer a rom.

Yes, it'd be nice to try out every rom for myself, but I can't. Just like I can't taste every food out there. For the most part, I have to depend on word of mouth and reviews. That's reality.

But SCREW all of these reasons. The WORST part of this ban is something that has been happening little by little in rom development threads. More and more, members are becoming ruder and ruder to developers in the threads, asking "WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT YOUR ROM" and "WHAT DID YOU SPECIFICALLY CONTRIBUTE ASIDE FROM THESE TWEAKS". And developers are being hassled with replying to those posts, instead of developing. Yes, this has always happened, but it's gotten worse. And my guess is that it has to do with users not being able to ask the simple question of "Which rom is best" or "Why is this rom any good?"

These are questions that only other users can answer.

Unless the silly ban is lifted or there is the creation of a new forum titled "Extra Stupid General Discussion," this problem is going to worsen.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] _viren_:
look this topic has arised again.... i am not offefnding... let me give a simple explanation... roms are not foods.... and at the moment there are nt so much varitety of rom(compared to foods) that you can not ttry them all .... you eat food daily... try out roms every weeks or so... you have your backed up data :cyclops:

now for the reason of the ban..

people develop.. people mod and release roms... we spent day and nights to give out somethin new... and somethin nice... the best we can do.... after all our hardwork... when some1 says that this/that rom sucks or is not good enough..... hw will the maker of the rom feel?

have you ever thought about that....? :confused:

and while releasing roms ... the makers.. give the detail what all is in the rom..... along with screen shots... that info is more then enough to understand what is in the rom.. !!!

i am not offending any1 or neither you... this is the reason behind it.... i was before also said not to explain all this.... but still iwould like to make this alot clear... so ppl understand... ;)

i hope ppl dnt criticize anymore about any rom... :good: :fingers-crossed:

[Optimus One, P500, V General] rr0yy:

Since we cant stop each and every person all the time.. lets make one sticky thread including a poll in General Section. Atleast every new member can see and understand which rom is good for him and which is the most recommended Rom in the forum.

This way.. noobs wont make new threads asking about the best Roms.

This should be implemented in every forum.. even senior members are sometimes new to some Forum.. and wants to know which rom is the most popular there.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Psykologikal:
I appreciate the developers time and effort however if I want a ROM that has TV out enabled and your ROM doesn't have that then I dont want to use your ROM. Its not a bad ROM your not a bad developer. It just doesn't fit my needs at the time.

Its not OK to write things like such and such ROM sucks. But saying one is the best shouldn't be discouraging. Esp if reasons are given. Ie lags theme chooser partition layout ram settings whatever it might be.

If you can back up your statement with facts I dont see how anyone can be offended

[Optimus One, P500, V General] vlt96:
Every ROM is different from a person to another... for example, I am more the type of oxygen user... I prefer simplicity... however, I use gingerDX (which no user will suggest because it isn't so popular, but really good and much more stable than "stable" official CM7)

So why ruin some work of a small developer by only using what everyone else uses? (This is an analogy with video games next)

If you ask someone what game you should play, they will say "diablo 3, of course"(which will make you pay the game + tons of other money because it is pay to win) but no one will tell you "path of exile" which is a small NZL company who did an awesome game...

Another analogy would be me playing WoW... I love archer, but in WoW I have a warlock... and since wow has no "archer/ranger/bowman style/blahblah with a bow" class, I wanted a warlock, cuz I love how warlock sounds:) and since then I only play summoner classes in all games (the kind with a minion following you)

I think that we should have dedicated threads where there is a discussion about ROMs and the pros/cons and stability for each one. Users should be able to have a dedicated place where it's nothing but discussion about why they like certain ROMs and why they don't.

I own an Optimus V and I am on a port of GTR, which I love. I didn't like BACKside, not because it was a bad ROM, but because I always had bad luck with md5 verification for it, and such.

I don't want developers to feel bad, but I do want users to be informed of the characteristics of each ROM in one, easy place.

Agree with the 2nd post :) too much of spamming and less chance for devs to improve themselves coz only popular ROMs will top the charts and everybody will use it.

So this way is better.Every ROM get a chance.

Plus I think u should spend sometime reading the ROM threads to get an idea about it.There are enough information about it in them.
