[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
There is a new build up by the way, but not much in the way of custom features. I feel like I've been neglecting this ROM a little, because I'm doing a lot of work on my Nexus 7 kang, playing with my own version of tablet mode on a little tablet which Google wants to be a big phone, and I have also spent some time this week pushing the expanded desktop feature into CyanogenMod. It's there now and should be coming to the official CM10 ROM for the Xoom in the next nightly, and I also had a major breakthrough with my Nexus 7 ROM yesterday, so I am hoping to spend some time giving a little love back to my Xoom this week.

Any suggestions for features you want? I am thinking about digging around in AOKP and seeing if I can pinch any goodies from ROM Control, but I'm also open to any other suggestions.
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
one suggestion i had and not sure where this comes from, is the menu when rebooting. CM10 makes you select your choice (reboot, recovery, bootloader) and then click OK. there is one out there that has the same menu choices but when you click one it does it, no need to hit OK. not sure if that comes from EOS or CNA or AOKP or if that is something engineered in somewhere

rom control stuff is pretty nice. really anything else you add to this rom is just icing on the cake :)
[Xoom Android Development] haydnlj:
Hey z1gackly - would be keen to see this if you could mod it in :D

[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
That would be cool
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
Nice suggestion, and he has made the source code available too. I know what I am working on this week now :)
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
As requested, today's 20121030 build features a transparent combined nav/system bar. I'll work on making a toggle for the settings menu later in the week :)
[Xoom Android Development] thenemis:
look good :)
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
now THAT is cool!!! updating now!!!

question - how do you get one row of icons to be close together and then another row to be farther apart?
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
I use Nova launcher ... the row at the bottom is the dock, and the ones above are on the homescreen. You can play with the number of icons and the spacing to move them relative to each other. I keep five homescreens each with just a few icons and at most one folder, and the dock is visible on each screen. Keeps it simple.
[Xoom Android Development] haydnlj:
BOOM - Awesome work! Think I've found me a new ROM :D
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
ahhh got it, i use holo, gonna give that a try
[Xoom Android Development] lepa71:
Try Holo HD as well
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
yeah i have holo hd on my xoom, holo on my phone, and holo plus for both :)
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
There used to be a setting under Security that if you set a pin to unlock the screen it would auto unlock as soon as you entered the correct pin so you didn't have to hit OK. That is gone now.
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
I don't touch that part of settings, so I'm guessing it's a CM10 change. I'll check later if I get time, and perhaps I can revert it too.

EDIT: Can you just check for me under Settings->Lock screen->Screen security, and see if Quick unlock is there?

Is that the one you mean?
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
i swear that was not there when i asked before, but it is now. dont know how i missed it. i set that every time i do a clean install and did not see it after installing 1030. crisis averted :)
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
Easily done.

Today's build is uploading now. Don't download it for ten minutes though.
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
No build today because I'm having a day off ;)
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
when does the goo manager update feature start working? i have 1030 installed and when i ask goo manager to check for updates it says there are none
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
It really should be working already. I've included the hooks in build.prop and added a rule for incremental updates, exactly as it says to on the goomanager website. I guess I am going to have to contact goo.im and ask them why it's not working when I've done everything right.

20121104 is uploading now, and will be ready to download in about twenty minutes. Don't download it before then because it will be incomplete ;)

Just catching up with CM10 updates today, hopefully some new development tomorrow.
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
Thanks, I'll install 1102 and see if it upgrades to 1104
[Xoom Android Development] uzi2:
Goo is still not detecting any updates to your Roms. They appear in the compatible Roms section quickly enough, though.

...microbes... ;)

Swyped from my Xoom
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
I am trialling a change to the goo.im hooks which might get them working properly. My only theory at the moment is that my integer was too large, so I've cut it down to just the date and a version number rather than date and number of seconds since whenever. That went into yesterday's upload, so hopefully when I release today's it will start working. If not then I'll ask goo.im for some support.

Oh, and I finally got rid of my microbes!
[Xoom Android Development] lepa71:
What is "microbes"?
[Xoom Android Development] uzi2:
It's a live wallpaper that only works on 7 inch tablets.

Swyped from my Xoom
[Xoom Android Development] thenemis:
it run well on my gnexus too
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
Goo.im update notifications will now work for future updates.
[Xoom Android Development] MashBill:
It's telling me that the 10-08 update is available, but I already have 11-06 installed.......
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
Go into system/build.prop and make sure the last three lines look exactly like this:

ro.goo.developerid=zigackly

ro.goo.rom=cm10kangzigackly2

ro.goo.version=201211061

If they don't, then you are one of the very unlucky people who downloaded it before I worked out what was wrong.

If they do, then it's a problem with goo.im, because I have changed ro.goo.rom now to avoid the problem you describe. It used to be cm10kangzigackly.
[Xoom Android Development] MashBill:
The second to last line was missing the "2". I edited the file and rebooted. Now things are working as they should. Thanks for the help!
[Xoom Android Development] tb-killa:
I thought Partition size is define by sbf file (Mbm.bin) by rds Flash?

Its right that the bootloader is managed all ****ty things for the tablet but as normal motorola could Provide updated Bootloader with external Partition file like Samsung! I thought xoom is google developer Tablet so lets Talk for help ?
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
works good here!
[Xoom Android Development] nadiros:
Eh z1gackly, thanx again for this ROM. As far as the kernel is concerned, is it the same as the official CM10 but compiled by you or is their a difference?

I swapped boot.imgs with Eos nightly and wouldn't boot so there's my uneducated guess for the day :confused: lol
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
It is the CM10 kernel compiled by me, yeah.
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
The partition mapping is probably there as well, seeing its the bootloader image after all. It doesn't really matter as you can't modify the image anyway without corrupting the signature. It is a development device but still most devices maintain some element of bootloader signature integrity system.
[Xoom Android Development] logitechor:
Thought I would share that I am using your latest nightly with 4.2 Gapps. Got Photosphere to run. Had to delete some Wallpapers in the system folder as I originally had no room in it. Works like a charm.
[Xoom Android Development] adityamunshi:
Is there a 4.2 Gapps pack?
[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
Thanks for letting us know. Want to share how you did it?
[Xoom Android Development] lepa71:
Does anybody know what the difference is between new calendar app in PS and the one in gapps? Are they just trying to decoupled calendar from gapps like they did with gmail?
[Xoom Android Development] tb-killa:
Does check come from sbf file too?

I modified sbf file to Test some Stuff like another recovery inside and get them flashable.

I personal think we should ask developers like motorola dev center or maybe the great Chainfire ... he has really great skill!

Do you think he would help ?
[Xoom Android Development] logitechor:
What I did was use your ROM. I flashed the regular Gapps we have been using. I booted and cleaned up the system some more - mostly wallpapers. Then flashed 4.2transformerpack and a 4.2camera zip. It allows for photosphere to work without force closing.

---------- Post added at 01:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ----------

Getting 4.2 Apps working on the Xoom. What I did was flashed your latest ROM - today's. Then the recommended Gapps. The 4.2 Transformer Gapps and a modified 4.2Camera App. When it boots I have no Camera App installed. Ran out of System Memory. I freed so memory by deleting cm10 Wallpapers apk. Reflashed the 4.2 Camera App. It works. And I now have 304kb's of System Memory left. Hopefully a better solution in the future.
[Xoom Android Development] urushiol:
I wonder would it be much work to patch this to run on the stingray? Looks like some truly awesome work. =)
[Xoom Android Development] nsmac84:
Where can I get the gapps and 4.2 camera app you got where I can try this?

[Xoom Android Development] z1gackly:
I'd like to do that, but I'm worried that I would not be able to test the builds before releasing so I have held back.
[Xoom Android Development] logitechor:
Camera Application. I used 4.2Camera_t04.zip . I tried uploading it here but can not. A Google search will bring up numerous locations to download including a direct link on xda.
[Xoom Android Development] urushiol:
I am no developer but would be willing to test your builds. I am proficient enough to give you a logcat. Let me know, you're welcome to PM me.
[Xoom Android Development] uzi2:
Just because it's quiet in here, doesn't mean we've stopped downloading your Roms and stopped appreciating the work you do. It just means that nobody is having any problems. Great stuff. :)

[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
agreed. downloading 1116 right now :)
[Xoom Android Development] Hoochie_Coochie:
Seems to be a few changes in 20121120 that probably aren't right

Recents are small again

Navigation bar is black

Homescreen holds less icons

System partition is full

And no goo notification for the update

But for some reason is seems smoother, maybe just my imagination

Not complaining just letting others know in case they want to hold off updating, thanks again z1gackly

I flashed back to 20121116

Cheers
[Xoom Android Development] logitechor:
Thank you for the update. I have been using this ROM with Teameos Gapps for awhile now. Along with some additional system editing - for example, I don't need Wallpapers I have been able to free up some additional space either by deleting or moving to user apps. I then have installed some Gapps from 4.2. Photosphere is cool. And 4.2 Gmail is a improvement. Thanks again.
[Xoom Android Development] ouldsmobile:
Anyone else getting random reboots on this? Any easy way to diagnose the cause. I tried not OC'ing and just running at stock 1ghz but still getting random reboots. I checked some of the logs but not sure what I am looking for to be honest. Does this kernel OC the GPU as well? Maybe that is what is causing my issue. I may try a stable EOS rom to make sure that it is software related and not a hardware issue on my end.
[Xoom Android Development] Hoochie_Coochie:
Yeah I seem to get them but its a straight boot to cyanogen boot screen, not a full reboot it seems. Get it when an app is updating so not completely random for me
[Xoom Android Development] MashBill:
I also get random FC's when updating apps in the Play Store.
[Xoom Android Development] ouldsmobile:
I get them when updating apps from play store but also randomly at other times. For example, I had one the other day while reading, so not really doing anything it was just while I was in the middle of a page. I will try a few other roms and see what happens.
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
how did you install this rom? i've never had random reboots, which version are you running?
[Xoom Android Development] sgastel:
Dumb Question I know

I seem to be in the CyanogenMod loop how long does this rom usually take to setup the first time?
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
Shouldn't take too long. Did you do a full wipe?
[Xoom Android Development] ouldsmobile:
Clean install, wiped system and factory wipe plus cache and dalvik. I was running the nightly from Nov 16 I believe. I flashed Codename Android 3.6.6(which is what I was running previously) yesterday to see if the random reboots go away. I am thinking maybe it is something with the CM kernel. Time will tell. I don't recall having any random reboots prior to running the Cyanogen based ROMs but not positive.

EDIT: I was just perusing the CM10 main thread and it seems others are having the exact symptoms I am experiencing. Random reboots with "Watchdog Timer" as the cause. Hmmm. Doesn't seem to be any solutions posted though, also seems to be only a small group it is happening to.
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
interesting, is watchdog timer an app or part of the rom? havent heard of that before. keep us updated.

or did you mean watchdog task manager?
[Xoom Android Development] ouldsmobile:
lol, not sure. I think it is something to do with the kernel but don't hold me to it. I think it just said "watch dog error" as the last entry before reboot or something along those lines. I have wiped the device so can't look back now, I guess I should have saved it. I am pretty sure the error was in the last_kmesg log which would be from the kernel. So far so good, I am back on Codename Android 3.6.6 but haven't used the device much yet. I will know if it is solved over the next couple days as I use it on my commutes through the week and I would usually get at least one reboot a day.
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
hey Zig! i just installed version 20121122 and the new EOS gapps package they made for the new EOS4 and i have 52.5mb free on /system. unfortunately a lot of the google apps crashed and so did the aosp keyboard (hackers keyboard was fine)

are you still working on this or looking to go to 4.2.1 any time soon?
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
guess this rom is dead, zig hasnt been on since 18 nov and no updates at xoom forums either...oh well, it was a good rom
[Xoom Android Development] haydnlj:
Agree - still my daily, and has served me well.. prolly try out 4.2 now :)
[Xoom Android Development] DsturbD:
dont really like some of the changes in 4.2, especially moving the soft buttons to the center, hard to reach them when in landscape, which is most of the time for me

using CM10 nightlies for now
[Xoom Android Development] chiikko561:
This was a nice room tried for a couple hours
[Xoom Android Development] 5N4PDR4G0N:
I'm able to move the soft buttons to the traditional place on the 4.2 rom, honestly the rom is complete awesomesauce from top to bottom, give it a whirl you know you want to :D

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BlackBytes:
It's the RIL (Radio Interface Layer between Radio and ROM) on all Jelly Bean ROMs (CM10, AOKP, ...). There's nothing we can do about it but wait for a fix or a leaked JB ROM. Go back to a ICS based ROM and the issue will disappear.

Hello XDA!

I recently traded my iPhone 4S about 2.5 weeks ago. I am in love with the Samsung Galaxy SIII. I love the sleek style and touchwiz is much more active and more "fun" than iOS. I love the google integration and all the cool features out of the box.

Since I'm new to android I'm really overwhelmed in the amount of information available to "modify or root."

I was a constant jailbreaker and had over 50-100 tweaks/jailbroken apps. I would like to get the same functionality on the SIII.

I wasn't afraid of jailbreaking and it was a one-button press jailbreak.

With android there are so many different versions and terminology to jailbreak and so many instructions and updates and in general just a lot of stuff.

About my new phone:

- Samsung Galaxy SIII

- AT&T

- 8GB miroSD card

- Model: SAMSUNG-SGH-1747

- Android Version: 4.0.4

- Baseband Version: 1747UCLH9

- Kernel version: (IS THIS CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION?)

- I have installed a couple of root apps that I didn't know where root apps and so they don't work obviously.

- Ones I installed: Lucky Patcher, Titanium Backup

- It's not rooted yet I haven't modified it at all besides themes and settings

The reason why I'm posting:

- Can anyone please tell me EXACTLY which updated guides I need to follow for my specific device?

- How can I backup my device? I'd like to keep all the apps (and app data), contacts, everything if possible.

- I read as much as possible but I'm still not sure which guide to follow and which steps I need to take as some are dated and not recent. I'm scared I'll mess up my phone what are the chances of messing up my IMEI, bricking, bad stuff happening.

- Anything else I should know?

- What are some popular ROMS I can install on my phone that are supported (preferrably with JB)?

- Can I always go back to my original settings and apps like a restore but with a backup?

- Once I root what BLOATWARE can I UNINSTALL on my AT&T SIII? How do I do this as well?

Thank you for your patience, I am definitely going to stick with Android (stock iOS sucks balls and android is so much more aesthetically pleasing) I just want to make sure I'm doing everything right and that there is a proper way to do this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aboveusonlysky:
hey there welcome to XDA and more importantly to the world of android.

first off rooting can be relatively simple depending on the method you use. ive rooted mine twice using odin. i just followed the video here ON Galaxys3root . com all the things you need are in the description.

rooting your phone using this process will not wipe any data, contacts, pics, etc.

once you complete the root process and get rom manager installed it will allow you to make a back up of the current system with all your data like texts phone call logs etc.

the most popular roms are aokp based and cyanogen based roms. ( just look at threads with [ROM] before it ) roms are personal preference. if you flash a cyanogen based rom you will not have the features of touchwiz. stock based roms are always good too right not im just running stock i747uclh9 rooted.

going back to your original rom is simple all you do is boot to recovery (rom manager) and do a restore. before restoring you should wipe data, cache partition and dalvik cache. (dalvik is under the advanced menu.

removing bloatware just use no bloat free this will let you remove and also create a back up of all apps incase you have an issue.

for right now i personally just use ics based roms if you want to stick to stock since there has not been an att jb leak. however if you want jb i recommend cyanogen nighties basic jelly bean roms never had an issue personally.

if you have any more questions feel free to PM me.

IF THIS POST HELP YOU IN ANYWAY PLEASE CLICK THANKS :D

Hello, welcome to the android side of the world! Glad you decided to switch over! :D first things first, in order to root all you need to do is flash a root able kernel via Odin. Tutorial for this method can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 Second, I would not recommend that rom as I just came from it and while it is very stable for a leak it is still quite buggy as it is built from a sprint leak. If you are that anxious to have a jellybean I recommend using aokp by task650 in the original development forum, however this will take away all of the touchwiz things that you said you liked so much. I am currently running kyanrom which I have used before and find myself returning to quite frequently because it is originally bone dry and he has whatever files you would like to add back you can add them through flashing zips. I am assuming you are wanting jellybean primarily for the Google now feature? If you will go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1823194 it is a thread by me on how to replace s voice with Google now and as far as I can tell it seems to be working just as well as with jellybean!

This is a little advice that has helped me and some friends of mine that have came from iPhone. Don't root and rom unless you absolutely have to or willing to pay the price to learn the ends and outs of it. Stock Android or in our case touchwized android can provide a complete satisfactory experience alone without rooting. But some tweaks and mods require root and if that can be bundled in a single rom then great. But if you have jail broken before or ever have to restore an iPhone firmware then rooting will be relatively easy, it's just learning how to self troubleshoot when something goes wrong.
