On WinXP, I can't remember for sure, you need to go to:

Start - RUN - in the RUN box, type %TEMP% and click OK

It is best to run the %TEMP% first, delete everything that you can delete, so when you run the RUU, two new folders will be created and it is easier for you to see them.

This was discussed in the EPIC 4G forum too, there is a valid point... Windows mobile is closed source, so making a port would be very difficult and highly unprobable due to legal stuff. Closest thing is a theme :/

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SurferJon:
Hi all, I have the Verizon GS3 (SCH-I535). When I first got it, I flashed it using this guide - I apparently installed a rom by invisiblek that stripped out a lot of the applications. Well, since I'm a first time smartphone user, I asked in that thread that since my G3 was now rooted if I should accept OTA updates in the future, to which one person told me no. Last night I got a notification that my phone wanted to update to Jelly Bean, so now I'm not sure what to do. I don't accept the update because it will brick my phone, right? And if that's the case, where do I download a rooted version of Jelly Bean for it? (I searched this forum but couldn't really find anything other than people's custom versions, like Slimbean). I'm really confused with all the different rom versions available for the different carriers and models, though I suspect I can only use one for Verizon. Side question too - "rooted" is a modified version of an official OS release, right? It's not a method of installing an OS, it's an actual modified version, right? And if I want Jelly Bean, I have to continue using these modified versions, right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Jellybean has not been officially released in any capacity to the Verizon GSIII. The update you see is roughly 30mb at the most, it's an incremental update at best from when you purchased the phone. No, it will not brick your phone. If you have a custom recovery then the update will fail. If you do not have a custom recovery then the update will unroot and unlock the bootloader and install successfully. We're months away from a Verizon update to Jellybean.

Download custom roms from the development section. Only flash roms for the Verizon GSIII aka d2vzw. These custom roms are people's different versions of the software available for our phone either officially or in jellybean's case unofficially.

"Rooted" just means the user (you) have the ability to make changes to the system or root of the device that are not possible for stock non-rooted users. Just rooting your device means you gained administrator access to the system but nothing is changed until you install roms or other mods.

There is a truly great post in the development section by DroidStyle that details EVERYTHING you need to ask as a beginner. Here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1762709
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SurferJon:
Ah, I see, I thought it was JB since there were reports of people in some countries getting the JB update today. Coincidental timing!

Anyways, I went through with the update but it failed.

Ah I see, so if I were to download something that's JB, it's just someone's "fan" version of it? And the JB version that leaked to the international phones today won't work on our Verizon ones?

Thank you for your help! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
My pleasure, no worries! I have to much respect for any dev who undertakes developing or porting roms to call it a fan version. It's best to refer to it as "customized" which is what they are: custom versions of what may or may not be available.

Nah, unless there is a leak for the Verizon Jellybean update consider any news you hear/see about GSIII updates as completely useless unless Verizon is mentioned. The international version has completely different hardware inside the phone so any roms meant for that device will not work in the USA GSIII. You also can't actively flash another carrier's roms for this phone, it's not suggested and has the potential to render your device unresponsive.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj Telo:
Hello everyone,

I wanted to know if there is any way to turn off the screen without the phone being locked or put to sleep.

This would be useful when controlling my phone from my PC via Teamviewer (I already see the phone screen in my PC, so having the other one ON is pointless) or when wanting to listen to some music coming from a video.

Thank you!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dj Telo:
No way to do this?
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
As seen in several threads here @XDA (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1530411), it seems that there are newer libraries for 3D processing, to be used with the Adreno GPU, that is the ChaCha uses.

Well, I downloaded them and tested.

The benchmark app I use shows a performance improvement, but I found that modifying the build.prop file as requested, makes things worse, actually.
[HTC ChaCha] kronflux:
I wonder, have you tried using this tweak in collaboration with the one you posted about improving responsiveness? (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32158389#post32158389)

If the benchmark is showing that the performance is increased, perhaps what's slowing it down is the cpu not being compatible with the changes. turning off cpu rendering may solve the issue and actually show performance increase like the benchmark shows.
[HTC ChaCha] kronflux:
for some reason, when I flash this, my device won't boot. naturally I can get into CWM and flash a copy of the old files again, so its fine, but I'm wondering what I might be doing wrong. This happens with and without the edits to build.prop. for some reason my phone just doesn't seem to like the updated libraries.
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
I guess Tokafondo tested them on a GB rom, and you tested it on ICS? The libs are specific for a version:
[HTC ChaCha] kronflux:
ah. derp. yeah thats that I did wrong then :P
[HTC ChaCha] ravish_919:
will it work for 2.3.3 ?..

[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
You're welcome. By the way read the thread.
[HTC ChaCha] kronflux:
Just found this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1896980

apparently works well with CM9.

gonna test later tonight, and I'll post the results on whether it's an improvement or not.(or even works on the chacha at all)

if anyone beats me to it, please post your results.
[HTC ChaCha] kronflux:
just flashing it straight up causes phone to not boot.

might need some modifications, or it may just be incompatible.

if anyone else wants to give it a look, feel free.
[HTC ChaCha] ravish_919:
sir i've read those 2 threads & got confused reading these below comments...

& i actually wanted to know if it works for 2.3.5 not 2.3.3

& if it does work should i download from the latest thread or the older one ?..

sorry for being noob... :(
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
The "sorry for being a noob" excuse does not work with me. You could've at least search for the name of the Android version you are using. I have said read the thread because there a specific quote that says the following: "This is very specific, you should mention that this only works on Gingerbread."

Do you have your answer now?

I was wondering which ROM's available makes the battery lastes the longest?

And, BTW, as I am new over here, are the ICS or JB Roms stable right now?

Thanks
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxppxd:
Depends on your use, as a general rule, stock firmwares and barebone roms use less battery.

No stable ics or jb right now for daily use (don't flame me, its the truth), but progress is being made.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 'cooleagle':
I've changed the title of the thread to reflect your main question better as we don't allow 'Which ROM is the best? ' threads on XDA.

Here are some general tips:

- If you want to save battery use a ROM which has been de-bloated & install only useful apps, the less the better.

- Root & use a firewall to allow internet access to apps you want.

- If your battery still drains very fast then install 'Better Battery Stats' app to check what's draining your battery.

Cheers ! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bblock383:
Hi all, I installed chainfire 3.3 on my phone and I'm am able to select MSAA 4x but there's no option for anything higher. There's supposed to be options all the way up to 16x and apparently the I9300 guys get the 16x option. I've heard that if your phones gpu isn't good enough it won't allow you to go past 4x but so far I've seen that happen to the droidx guys. Surely the adreno gpu in our phones is far superior to the gpu in the droidx. I dunno if this is just an incompatibility thing with ICS or lack of support for the adreno gpu or what. Anyone else having this problem? Anyone else besides me even using chainfire 3d anymore? Thanks.

Hi Everyone,

I keep getting a boot-loop after installing ANY custom ROM. I factory wipe, clear cache and dalvik cache, THEN i install the zip and gapps, then I factotry wipe, clear cache and dalvik cache AGAIN.

Download the ROM AGAIN and this time download the OLDER version and keep your eyes on the download especially you are downloading from chrome. sometimes the problem is in the downloaded rom its self. and than make a factory Reset and then install the rom and than factory reset again than reboot the phone. Hope it works. I just did it yesterday. I also had boot loop. I tried to restore backup, install the newer ROM nothing worked. than I tried that and it worked....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melemed:
what do you mean download again and download the older version? I've tried every combination of factory reset/wipe/dalvik cache/reset/install/reset/cache/dalvik, etc....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chaitanyapatel8880:
Download the ROM from internet again. this time try the older version of the ROM that you want to install.

EXAMPLE: I wanted to install Omega v26.1 and I went to boot loop. I tried everything to flash the newer version, I also tried to restore the nandroid backup. nothing worked. so I downloaded Omega V13 and than I did factory reset than I installed omega v13. Worked like charm.
