[Thinkpad Tablet General] K1Andy:
Is your Bluetooth working on your 3G version of v5? It appears that Bluetooth is broken (won't turn/stay on) in v5 for most of the WiFi tablet users. I assume you're talking about tethering via Bluetooth.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] K1Andy:
Speed up your startup time

I posted this over on the Lenovo forums, but thought it useful enough that it might be worth repeating here:

===============================================================

Useful tip I discoved today: I noticed that my tablet startup seemed to be taking a lot longer than it used to, so I did some investigation and found that a process called the Media Scanner that was eating up a bunch of CPU time during system startup. It turns out that this process scans all the folders on internal storage (other than hidden or system areas) and on the external SD card for any kind of media file (mp3, pictures, movies, etc.). I had a couple of large folders of files on my external SD card containing app backups from Titanium Backup and a previous backup app that I had used, so I realized the scanner could be taking some time to go through those folders.

Well, it turns out that if you put an empty file with the name ".nomedia" (note the initial period) in a folder, then the media scanner will skip the scanning of that folder and all of its subfolders. And sure enough, after having put such a file in several folders that I knew contained no media, and rebooting, the boot process (i.e., the time until all apps are loaded and stable) went much faster.

I assume that many people who have done these ICS/JB upgrades might have similar large backup folders for their apps, so I thought this was a tip worth passing on, to speed up your startup time.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] steve30x:
I find the CM10 rom to be the best of the lot. I am using V5 and before that I tried the official Lenovo roms but it was unstable.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] K1Andy:
Agree. Krook has announced that he should shortly have a fix for the Bluetooth issue introduced in v5, and with that, I think this will be the "complete package".
[HTC Rezound] ndnballa93:
so I am in canada using wind mobile but i want to use the sim card in the rezound, i have it rooted and flashed to the ViperRez but everytime i put in the wind mobile sim card it shows roaming! anyway i could fix this...maybe mess with the settings? or any other roms that you recommend? i would appreciate the help! thanks
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
If you are on a GSM network (Wind mobile says it's a UTMS/HSPA network which is based off of GSM) you need to flash the GSM patch or run a rom that is made for GSM. I'm on Verizon (a CDMA network) so I really have no experience with this.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
I think any rom siul puts out is gsm.

[Asus Transformer TF700] oscarmorasu:
Before today I had the .30 firmware (ICS), unlocked and rooted, with CWMR v6.0.1.4

Today I decided to install Jelly Bean using the alternative method.

The tablet rebooted fine but I had lost root access. Since the tablet is unlocked I tried this to install CWRM again, then I restarted in recovery mode to install the CWM-SuperSU.zip. To my surprise CWMR showed five errors:

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Vol down/up didn't work and my only option was to reboot. I decided to take care of these errors later and play with Jelly Bean instead.

I pressed DOWN + power, then UP to get the Recovery/Andoid/Fast Boot/Wipe Data menu and I chose Wipe Data to start with a fresh install.

When the tablet restarted Jelly Bean didn't come up and it took me to recovery mode directly (which doesn't work as mentioned above). I rebooted again and pressed DOWN+power trying to access the start menu but nothing happens (no option to press vol UP) so I can't get into fast boot mode either. It takes me back to recovery mode.

It sound like I bricked my tablet...

Any ideas?

As Dual Booting is now possible ..

few guidelines for dual booting (this is for s2 will update once new one is available)

LINK

to enjoy the dual boot follow this method (thks to bala_gamer)

Tested by bala_gamer

Requirments:

1. siyah 1.7+.

2. siyah recovery.

3. 1st rom flashable zip.(primary)

3. 2nd rom flashable zip.(secondary)

4. ics rom flashable zip (If you are going to use aosp + samsung jb roms, this is required to have a working wifi )

Steps:

1. Decide your secondary rom.(Note***: If your secondary is an aosp rom then flash any ics zip rom before flashing this rom)

2. If you are going to use your current rom as primary then goto step 4 and take a note at step 9 later.

3. Flash your secondary rom (flash siyah 1.7 again if your rom comes with some other kernel) and goto step 4

4. Goto recovery -> dual boot options -> clone 1st rom to 2nd rom.

5. Factory reset your mobile and reboot into recovery again.

6. Install the primary rom.(Note***: If your primary is an aosp rom then flash any ics zip rom before flashing this primary rom)

7. flash siyah 1.7 again if your rom comes with some other kernel.

8. Reboot.

9. Only for users who need to use their current rom as primary

Goto recovery -> dual boot options -> swap 1st and 2nd rom

Enjoy Dual boot

this method is only a temporary method

This method is valid only until gokhanmoral enables the

yet to be implemented "install zip to 2nd ROm"

option, once done it will be much easier than this

so post your Combination..and your review

ITs time to enjoy custom roms with test of aokp/aosp/cm

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImSoBored:
When you backup with CWM, if I'm not wrong you will get system.tar, which you can decompile. As an alternative you can edit system/app folder with Root explorer, or any file manager with

root

, but if you want to do it this way, you will need root.

hello!

so many people haaaaate touchwiz but there are somethings i miss that i am unsure if they are touchwiz related or just different because of the android version upgrade. trying to figure out what they were (so i can decide if i want to go bck to stock) of if there are replacements or apps that can take care of my needs.

-in address book, swiping on someones name to the left to call them and to the right to text them

-in address book i could long press on a name and had an option to send that contact info as text in the body of an SMS (not a vcard)

-in address book i could select a group and select to either SMS the entire group or email the entire group.

am not sure if this is just ICS or CM9 or Touchwiz.

also i miss that in month view in calendar i could see text on every entry. but now in month view its just blocks and i have to select the day to see the text. i think this is an ICS thing and the other cal was gingerbread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
Those are touchwiz features. You can flash a rooted tw ROM and get those back including the calendar.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nateblack:
Do any custom roms have touchwiz versions or am I stuck with Samsung stock? Are there different versions TW? The gs3 looked a bit different than the note.

There are many custom roms that are still "stock" Unable and will have touched and the features you seek. Just check the development thread for a stock rom and start flashing until you find something you like?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BAoxymoron:
I keep getting a notification update reminder and can't get rid of it. I don't want the dumbed down search though I might install the new radio later(how is it working for you all?).

I've searched around various places and can't really find a good answer... I've long since frozen fwupdate(one of the first things I did) yet it still downloaded anyways, then when I got the notification I went into /cache/fota and deleted it and I'm still getting it... tried a general dalvik cache clear etc.

what do you guys recommend? should I try fota kill? flash it and see if it fails in cwm and then hope it stops pestering me? something else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
Did you try freezing com.samsung.sdm?

- ooofest
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BAoxymoron:
no I haven't... I assume that is SDM 1.0

I've frozen it and opening system update now crashes setting(which I assume is a good thing) but we will need to see if it pesters me again... btw does it matter if I unfreeze fwupdate(does it actually do anything?) now or just keep it chilly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
Yes, the crashing on your manual attempt to perform a system update is expected after freezing SDM.

I've read that freezing both is needed to ensure no updates are downloaded and/or attempted to be installed, but I may not be as informed as others on this subject.

[HTC One X+] ThePhoneGeek:
Inability to use google wallet isn't holding the device back. What holds this device back is options, people can probably get past the removable battery item but more storage is a must. The original X on AT&T had only 16GB and that just won't cut it for a superphone. A MicroSD slot would go a very long way but that won't happen.

The next thing that holds it back is that AT&T insists that HTC lock the bootloader and such. My opinion is that we need more heavy weight from Google demanding that MFGs leave Android completely unlocked and open. They have a large enough market share now that the carriers can't just stop carrying Android devices if they don't lock them down...

Just my 2 cents...

Hi there, I installed a stable release of CM9, and I had reboots but not every second, it reboots every 10-20 mins, but a friend of mine told me they had the same exact problem as I do but with a different device. All he did was buy a new battery and it fixed. (Maybe because the battery is defected and isn't sending enough juice to the CPU and GPU, thus causing reboots). I'm getting a new battery soon, hoping it will fix it. And I could boot into recovery but sometimes freezes, which I think is still a battery problem.

I just wanted to share some good news with the Sprint users here. Sprint recently launched LTE in the Chicago area and for a while I haven't seen any major improvements near me (south of Chi-town). For those in this area, I did a speed test in Lockport earlier tonight and pulled down 2-3Mbps. Normally, I might get 100-200 Kbps. I know many people have been suffering with far less than that, but wanted to let people know it's getting better!
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
LOL! That's nice, but how does this affect me, Al Franken?

I can't even find my state in the dropdown list for upcoming Sprint LTE deployments!

No doubt Sprint is concentrating on the population centers that they think will bring in the most revenue, just like my next upgrade will depend on which carrier can supply competitive 4G coverage in my area.

No our phones use 802.11e instead of the LTE protocols while some say a update could allow us to use it no one has really backed it up.

While 802.11e was the first revision of wimax and the next would have been better than LTE but to many others adopted LTE. YOu will need your upgrade to get a LTE device.

[Galaxy S III General] IOmega666:
So, here is the thing.

The only thread i saw about Games on S III is one from whic games work on LIB FW. Maybe i didn't search enough but it seems there isn't an "actual one" so i'd like to know which games are natively compatible and which others you can make compatible like for example editing build.prop and change device, model, name and brand.

Did this in my Motorola RAZR and chage it to Galaxy Nexus, i couldn't get NFS Hot Pursuit, Modern Combat 2 and 9mm to work, so did that and then installed SD DATA through the game, and all went well, fully working games. But now with S III i can't get 9mm to work and with CyanogenMOD9 i can't get Modern Combat 3 to be compatible trough Play Store when in Sammy's ROM it was compatible.

Then i edited build.prop to be a Galaxy Nexus, installed them, downloaded DATA for 9mm being a GNexus (can't being S III) and tried to play it, but the game it's about to start, no FC, no error, but game just closes itself and system goes to homescreen, game is open in background but it kept doing the same thing. Diferent from Modern Combat 3 that works fine.

I think it's obviously 'cause i downloaded DATA being a GNexus but how can i download compatible SD DATA for S III and play it???

So, i wanna know if there is a way for make this work and i'm leaving games that i have that works well with CyanogenMOD 9 so we can make a list perhaps.

Games:

· Modern Combat 3

· Modern Combat 2

· Asphalt 6

· ShadowGun

· Need For Speed : Hot Pursuit

And then i got all of the Humble Bundle games for Android :

· Anomaly

· BIT.TRIP BEAT

· Canabalt

· Cogs

· EDGE

· Fieldrunners

· Osmos

· Smuggle Truck

· Snuggle Truck

· Spirits

· Swords & Soldiers

· Toki Tori

· World Of Goo

· Zen Bound 2

PD: Sorry for my english, it's not my language, so if someone can help, i'd really appreciate it!
