Re: Rooting

Do you need an unlocked bootloader for this?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] YellowSloth:
Nope, at least, I hadn't. I pulled my Miro out of the box, set up the device with my Google account, and started the script. The first three times it failed, but the fourth time it worked. I suppose I didn't unlock the bootloader in the process.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Jorge Moreira:
I'll also try to see if I can. :cyclops:

root didn't work on new firmware on miro :crying:
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] drummer1839:
Sony repaired bug and now this tool dont work ..
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] eaglos:
You need to revert back to firmware 11.0.A.2.10 in order to root. I had my miro updated

to 11.0.A.5.5 but I was unable to root it. I reverted back to 11.0.A.2.10 (using flashtool

and ST23i_11.0.A.2.10_CentralEurope.ftf) and then I rooted it easily with "Root_with_Restore

_by_Bin4ry_v18".

If you are not planning on installing a custom rom, just flash it with a clear OEM 11.0.A.5.5

firmware so as to get rid of all the crap that came with your phone.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ghorin:
Today i have updated to .30 firmware. Before that update i have used Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper to save my root and su. Now i run Voodoo but there is no option to restore the root and status are :

- superuser app installed : yes

- device rooted : no

- root permission granted : no

- /system support root protection : yes

- protected su copy available : no

The last status is upsating me as it seems i have lost my root backup.

What do you think of that and how to restore my root ? Thanks for your help
[Asus Transformer TF700] houtx2:
I got the same thing on the US .30 update. Had to re-root using debugfs.

I don't know what people in the world think about difference builds of android.I just want to see your answers .which one do you prefer and why?.

Many thanks.

I like CM best because of the massive amount of features and customizations it has. When you say GB i presume you mean AOSP-its not bad but i got used to the extra features of CM and whenever i go to a AOSP rom i really miss them. As for Sense-personally its ugly to me and it also makes pointless load on system resources just to display a shiny rainbow-collored button. :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnGrY DuDe:
Do you think people like CM more than sense IU ? how can we have a threat to evaluate them in here by vote?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilajrestnom:
CM for me too. I love the extra features. Htc is good but I find cm better.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
I like AOKP, pretty similar to look and feel of CM9+. Was not a fan of CM7, for gingerbread I prefer MIUI.

CM is a skin too. CM, AOKP, MIUI, TouchWiz, Sense, Blur, LG skin, Pantech skin, etc. They all run on top of Android, spanning several versions of Android.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerotNS:
Doesn't have to mean. I just think CM is spread more because of it's features and stability .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Heidegeist:
Hey Guys!

I have a Galaxy Nexus running Stock Jelly Bean JRO03C. Not Rooted, not Unlocked.

So now I want to install a custom Rom and Kernel to get more out of my phone. I came from moto Defy and saw the possibilities of Custom Roms.

My Questions are now, which of the many Custom Roms?!

I want a stable one, where everything is working and I want the battery life like in Stock JB+Stock Kernel or even better, if possible.

My Phone has to be smooth like stock JB.

Is it even necessary to flash a custom Kernel? (I don't really know, what it does :eek: )

So can you guys recommend me any good, smooth and stable custom roms? (Only thing I really would appreciate are power toggles in Notification bar like in Cyanogenmod)

could you please post a link to rom and kernel?

Kind regards!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
CM10 + Franco/Trinity
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cilraaz:
The tons of locked ROM/kernel posts didn't give you a clue not to post this?

Every phone reacts differently to ROMs/kernels. Every person uses their phone slightly differently, which gives different results depending on ROM/kernel. The only proper answer is "try them yourself and see which works best".

Also, think of the pandas!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Heidegeist:
ah forgot to ask for that.

Could you pls post a link to rom and kernel? And can you tell me the advantages of your suggested rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
seriously. pandas are dying at a rapid rate!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Heidegeist:
Do I have to understand this? I like Pandas! I really like them :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Heidegeist:
awh yeah, i'm sorry for asking. Thought I'd get help here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
You really want stable rom? Stock. No doubt about it. You only flash custom ROM if your want more customization. Battery life can't be better than stock unless you underclock or undervolt.

Also there is no best ROM and kernel. It's what you like the best and the one that suits you the most. Please keep that in your mind.

If you only want custom ROM for notification toggles, seriously check out apps like power toggles. Works and works well

It isn't necessarily to flash custom kernel, but it'll give you ability to overclock and stuff. That's what it's all about
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Heidegeist:
There are only three things I miss in Stock, coming from Cyanogenmod 10-Defy. The T9-Dialer, the toggles in Notification bar und the Battery Symbol in percent.

The apps for the toggles and battery percent annoy me, because they use the top left space of notification bar and don't fit to the design of JB in my opinion
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
If you're coming from cm. Just use cm. It'll probably be best for you.

OP, please read up and try them. Opinions will vary, as well as how they perform on your particular device. Thank you for understanding.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] SM05:
I'm happy you found a new tab you like. Samsung GS2 user here as well. :) My phone is actually being fixed under warranty at the moment...

Anyways, wanted to reflect on my experience as well. After 4 weeks of using GN I plan on sending it back next week. I gave it an honest try but iust couldn't get past lag and stutter. I also tried a 2nd unit which had less lag , which was still there though, but had a less responsive pen. I decided to keep unit 1 hoping I can live with it. It's just too annoying to be dealing with random lag especially considering all the horse power this tab packs, so back it goes. I don't wanna take a chance with my $$$ waiting for JB to see if it fixes the lag.

Someone had said on this forum that there's no android tab out there under 500 with no lag. If so and considering GN specs I think it's gotta be android itself then. Hopefully JB fixes it. I'm gonna try Nexus 7 but don't have much confidence in that reading about all the QC issues. If that doesn't work out I may have to sit back and wait for android on tabs to mature a bit. I might consider larger screen on my next phone if it still not there.

I hope my experience is an isolated case. So enjoy your GN if all is working fine.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
When i hear these comments about lag and stutter i just shake my ahead. Absolutely ZERO lag or stutter for me. Tablet is faster than my laptop.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dr.m0x:
There is lag and stutter?

Either you got a faulty tablet or you have loaded up some CPU hogging app.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] PsiPhiDan:
@SM05

The issue is not typically Android - it's usually companies like Samsung or HTC or ASUS or whatever that change Android by putting on their "skin" that inevitably slows down and hinders Android. When running vanilla Android on phones and tablets alike, I've never seen lag. ICS, and especially JB, are just speed demons.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] GalaxyBill:
Great review... great story! You gave me the entire visual on that write. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Szadzik:
Got an S3 and a Note 10.1. Had Tab 10.1 previously. PErfectly happy with all of them.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Phsyclone79:
Agree with you. Nothing wrong with mine.

O.P. Great review btw
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] DRVB:
The only slight lag i ever noticed on mine was when changing homescreens with the standard clock/weather widget updating ....once i replaced it with HD widgets the lag disappeared...never noticed any lags in progs ...in fact from my point of view this tab is super fast ))
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
The only lag I have noticed is when trying to type in a website based forum. However I think that is more due to the websites slow servers than the tablet. Typing in Tapapalk is very responsive.

I just wish more of my favorite blogs used Tapatalk.

Good idea for an app. Make an app which allows a user to type into a pop up text box and when done, sends the text all at once to the blog text box.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] TonyBigs:
That's what Windows tablets do. It's called the Tablet Input Panel (TIP). One can make corrections and edit with pen strokes before committing the text to the text box.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] younix258:
Its called copy and pastenlol
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
That's a good idea. Will have go suggest that to Samsung.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] SM05:
There is in my case. Both tabs had it. I cannot imagine getting 2 "faulty" units in a row. Forgot to mention thst the 2nd unit creaked like crazy, which was another reason I decided to keep the 1st one, til now that is.

I install apps very conservatively. Been actually running the similar set of apps on my GS2 with no issues, on a custom GB rom to be fair though. Ftr, I've got: adobe reader, flash, kindle, color note, crackle, dropbox, engaged, imdb, skies air, shazam, stocks, timeriffic, weather channel, USA today + a few Google apps. Nothing fancy and nothing crazy running in the background. Home screen has 2 pages, Main 1 with 2 widgets like weather for instance, which is set to not periodically refresh and 1 more widget on another page. Some stutter occurs while scrolling in settings app for example and sadly is noticeable even after a full reset.

So it's gotta be a software problem, ie either android on tabs or Samsung's version of it. I simply don't see how such a high end specs and quality wise hardware could be a culprit. And assuming that's the case it can then be fixed. I hope GN will get better for the rest of you and ones with a similar problems. Enjoy your tab.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Nfinity:
I enjoyed reading this article. Before purchasing my Note 10.1, I was a firm antagonist of tablets in general. I have a phone; I have a computer; why would I need some awkward middle device that lacked the power if a computer and the functionality of a phone? It wasn't until I was limited to my computer screen (which is a 50" tv in a room with no desk) when doing homework, due to my books being digital, that I knew I needed portability, and a phone is just way too small. I was holding out for a Surface device, but then saw the Note 10.1. After much debate (with the final justification being the price of school books being similar to the cost of this device, AND it would save me much money on paper, pencils and such) I ordered the Note 10.1 on amazon.

It wasn't available for demo in any local stores, so I played around with similar tablets, like the transformer. I was disappointed with the lag and the freezing, which worried me. I realised that that were demo units, so held my final verdict for my new Note when it arrived

Once I received it, I was blown away. Aside from the folder bug, it was flawless ( Samsung quickly came out with a small update ota to fix it within a day or two! :D ). It ran way fast, had an operational screen time 10 hours on a single charge with heavy use, and was feature rich. Best of all, this was all without any kind of root. Suffice to say, I kept it. Not only has it almost replaced my computer (still need it for Borderlands 2) but I barely use my phone anymore as well. You can now officially call me an android tablet advocate, with the Note 10.1 being my first recommendation.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] macwilson:
I also have an iPad 2 which is really nice. But the Note is actually better in most ways. It's faster, and has a really good OEM case, something the iPad lacks, even though I have a very nice case for it (cases are important I think).

Anyway, it's the pen that trumps the iPad.

Got to Love Wacom. :)

I think i'll buy the LTE version if it ever shows up.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] 0l-ROB-l0:
Thanks for a nice post on your experience, good to see others are enjoying their GN.

I've gotta also post a response here because I had to say that the performance of my GN is flawless, it is quite amazing how fast and smooth it is - I never expected it to be this good, as they should all be for that matter.

I was so close to ordering a TF700 but decided to wait for a GN.
[Nexus 7 General] generic.imitation:
It's a simple question, but without a simple answer. With all of the OEMs in the Android environment, none of them have ever released a phone with vanilla Android without the direct partnership (or prodding) of Google in some way.

Most everyone agrees that the OEMs want to differentiate themselves from the competition and this is how they go about it, but why hasn't one ever released a phone without additional "features" or UI overlays? It doesn't make sense to believe Google isn't somehow leveraging their brand recognition of the Nexus line when dealing with OEMs.

Has an OEM pushed out a vanilla Android Jellybean device (or ICS) not in the Nexus line that still comes with Gapps?

Edit:

Meant for Android General, not Nexus 7 forum. Sorry :3
[Nexus 7 General] Amon_Re:
Android is Open Source, so yes, they can. Don't know the deal with the Market though
[Nexus 7 General] killer23d:
In addition, if OEM wants to include the Play Store and any GApps, the device needs to be certified by Google. Therefore, you see many low-end tablets do not come with Play Store or GApps and must be sideloaded.

Lenovo just moved out of their App Shop business and going back to Play Store. Also, Acer is having issues with the Aliyun (Alibaba) issue with Google
[Nexus 7 General] simms22:
simple question, simple answer.. yes. problem is the oem's want to add their own touches, and the providers want to add their crapware.
[Nexus 7 General] Ravynmagi:
Probably the main reason I like ASUS is they seem to make very little changes to Android, looks almost stock, and they've been doing a good job updating tablets with the latest version of Android. So I think they are the closest we have to a pure Android non-Nexus tablet.
[Nexus 7 General] jetbruceli:
They released the g2x with vanilla android gb but still a lot of people wanted those extras from LG's optimus 2x features like its clock and launcher.

I just started enjoying touchwhiz after a few months and now I can't use my s3 without it.

The nexus 7 seems to actually to plain in my opinion since with all the improvements over that years with android and their respective manufacturers ui like sense and touchwhiz

[Nexus 7 General] T-Keith:
Everyone *****es about the skins and delays. But sometimes oems add worthwhile features too. If I were an oem I would work with some third party developers and bundle good pay apps with the phone (uninstallable of course.) like nova launcher, Camera ect. Leave most of the base os alone, making updates easier.

You will not see 3g unless you happen to be in a T-Mobile 1900 mhz area. That's pretty rare at this point

It really all depends where you are as too which modem you will get the best signal from but as far as getting 3g or 4g it is like stated above doesn't matter unless you are in the area I use tmobile and am using the uckk6 or the 7 modem and have great coverage although no 3 or 4g as i am not in an area that has it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raptastics:
Yea. This phone is not compatible with T-Mobile's 4G (HSPA+) or 3G (HSPA) bands.

This phone uses AT&T's 850 and 1900 MHz bands. There are small pockets around the country where T-Mobile uses 1900 MHz for 3G. The iPhone also works on T-Mobile 3G in these mystical lands... Good luck :laugh:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killjoy1179:
what up everybody? I figured I'd come here to seek out some help for this huge problem I have...

Over in the Droid razr forums, we have an "MIUI port" and to be honest...its crap. Data drops and only way to fix is with a reflash, no 3g on newer versions of it, lag in the older versions with 3g, auto brightness problems, pretty sure there's some themeing issues also...

Anyways, the dev for the rom claims he's hard at work but the last time he updated the rom was in June. So I was wondering if anyone could share with me some info on how to fix some of these problems. I wanna take this on myself since obviously nobody else is. Biggest problem is getting 3g...3g worked on the older version but you would have to go into the phone info app and toggle the radio then change network type every time u restart the phone... so I want to get atleast 3g on the smooth running version on the rom. I have no clue where to start, that's why I'm here..

So to anyone that can help, me and the Droid razr community thanks you.

Please! can someone help me!

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
1. Connect your device to your pc

2. Open command prompt from Adb folder. (hold shift key, then right click on a blank space, select open command window here)

3. #check if your device is connected via adb by typing in the command window: adb devices

4. #copy all the content of your sdcard by typing in the command window:

adb pull /mnt/sdcard \mysdcard

wait for the process to finish

Check you C: drive for a folder named "mysdcard". all the files and folders in your internal storage will be there.

Good luck

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
type as follows in adb

adb shell

cd /mnt/sdcard

ls

### ls lists all the directories/folders. so it will list all the directory in your internal storage

### you have to delete the folder type the name of each folder in front of this command:

rm -r "folder name"

### repeat the above command for all the folders you wish to delete

### for example, to delete DCIM, then i just type: rm -r dcim

done
