Just a heads up to everyone. When Formula84 came out with his updated Gapps package, many people (including myself) started flashing that one as opposed to the older official gapps. Yesterday I noticed that he updated his Gapps package. Just letting the community know!

FYI-if you want to keep gallery working, do not flash the picsync version.

Just out of curiosity, what makes this better then the older official version? I remember seeing people post about this awhile back, but I've always stuck with the official one.

EDIT: Fail at reading on my part. Its based on 4.1.1 instead of 4.1. Is there a notable difference between the two?

I just wanted to know if there were any ROMs like MIUI in the aspect of customizability, I love the way MIUI changes absolutely everything about everything, such as the settings menu and lockscreen, pretty much ever menu out there, I just want my sgs3 to stand out you know? I want to know if there are any other ROMs similar that change the phone completely, I would use MIUI but it is too similar with IOS, no app drawer and such, thanks in advance!

In that case I would suggest you have a look at some of the home screen threads or the theme threads to get a completely different look.

http://gizmodo.com/5950690/apples-l...s-from-dragging-anything-around-a-lock-screen

Just had to post this here.... basically front-page news worthy. Makes me really wish that Apple would have just stopped and let innovation take it's course. But apparently, they've just been granted a patent that, aside from their existing Slide to Unlock (with an unlock bar) patent, now covers the idea of sliding any sort of unlock image along no designated path, to a designated unlock zone. Essentially.... the lock screen that has been on vanilla Android ever since Honeycomb nearly 2 years ago.

I really wonder what monkeys they gave patent approval privileges to. Was there even a screening process? Did it include a section stating "Will you grant patents for companies who throw money at you, no matter how logically wrong the patent is" that was just overlooked by the patent office?

Has anyone else with a Telus S2X been successful with ClockworkMod and CM.

I have these instructions:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II_(T-Mobile):_Full_Update_Guide

A few months back their wiki said the T(*(D was not supported but now it is...apparntly?

Anyone else try?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rekzer:
Hey im using the S2X right now. Just follow instructions on THIS forum for installing Clockworm Mod or TWRP, and then flash the latest CM10 nightly.

Basically what i did was

I used Odin to Install Clockwork Mod, then used clockwork to install a custom rom(Like a CM nightly..which works GREAT for me but have a few bugs still).

Id suggest finding forum posts on installing clockwork, and reading a bit on using cache wipes and so on.

I personally run the S2X using TWRP recovery instead of clockwork, and the latest CM10 nightly. I cache wipe(theres a thread by thederekjay in the dev section) on every update as well to ensure its clean.

Just read guides and youll figure it out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ingrouille:
Thanks. I've used Odin to install Clockwork before. Which version is a good one?

Also when I goto Cyanogenmod's page I don't see specific S2 builds. Would this one work? http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/samsung-galaxy-s2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rekzer:
That will brick your phone as thats or the international version.

http://get.cm/?device=hercules

We go by Hercules(Tmobiles hardware equivalent to the S2X)

As for CWM, i dont use it. I use the latest TWRP which i installed using Goo Manager. I think you need a rooted rom preinstalled to use goo manager. I believe 5.0.2.7 of CWM is what i used or something like that.

The dev section should have a threat just for CWM and read through it to see if anyone has issues. Also reading through the CM10 threads will be helpful for seeing if theres issues.

Id also suggest looking for the 'Discontinued' Darkside cache wipe script. You 'install' it like a ram in CWM, and it wipes the cache's and its helpful.

In TWRP i usually Que up my flashes. I flash my CM updates daily, and i queue the cache wipe script right after. You can also manually wipe dalvik/cache partitions but the script does it for you faster.

Im not sure what you're running right now. But you will also want to go to the modem thread thats stickied in the dev section and keep the Telus LLE4 modem ready to flash as well. You only need to do it once, but if youre currently on Gingerbread still youll need that for ICS or JB roms. Your 'about phone' screen will tell you what modem your currently running. Should end with LLE4.

I think I found my culprit. Here check this out. Y is maps waking my phone 135 times?! It's only spouse to be doing it 1 time every 3 hrs. And that's for HTC clock. Any ideas on what would keep trying to get my location? the only sync i have set up is weather for the htc clock. but that updates every 3 hrs. google now is turned off, and so are all the setting in the maps app its self. however i do have both stand alone and google location services checked in location settings under settings. but not verizon. screen on time was about 1 hr. but data was turned off, and i dident touch my phone all day.
[HTC Rezound] ZigZagJoe:
Does this for me too. Very annoying.
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
yea its up at like 18% its the highest one under screen. like i have data turned off, under volted, and under clocked, and im getting 10 hrs with 2 hrs of screen on... if not less... its kinda messed up how its trying to get my location when i have data turned offf.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
It appears you have Latitude enabled... disable it and your battery usage should drop significantly. Go into Maps - Settings - Location Settings and make sure Location Reporting is set to "Do not update your location" and all other options in this area are toggled off. Otherwise your location is constantly being reported back to Google for Latitude services, causing it to never being able to sleep properly.
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
it is off. along with all other settings.... all off. thats y its stumping me lol
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Happens to me too.

95% of the time, its fine. Every once in awhile though, some service that Maps runs in the background (Latitude maybe?) seems to lock up and I find Maps destroying my battery. Usually I just restart my phone and it fixes it again.
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
just shut off location then rebooted. gonna try that, but i dont think it will work considering i restarted it like 4 times lol....
[HTC Rezound] Proz00:
use super manager to disable friend service
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
i have friend stream, stocks, etc and all that frozen already

alright i think i figured it out.

maps works in conjunction with google location service.

if i look aty power settings in settings, i fid that maps is using between 4- 18% mostly in the double digits. now if i go to running in the apps section, it shows that maps and google services r running. if i click maps, it shows google location service, and maps. if i click on google services, it shows network location service, google messaging service, and google services. now if i go into GSam, it shows me that maps is top of the list, and number of wake locks is 121, #of times waking device is 105. gps ussgae is 2m 9 seconds, and cpu is 19 secs.

now yesturday gps ussage was 20mins, and number of wakes was 160. i did nothing different but restart the phone. i have my data turned off most of the day. sine im in school, i only look at the screen like 10x at most during the 7hr day of school. if i look at time up it is- 18hrs, and time off is 8hrs. maps and google services have been running for 5+hrs and counting. so something is trying to track my location through the google service and i know its not htc flip clock, cause i only have that set to every 3 hrs. my location dosent change at all during the day sonce im in 1 building all day.

any ideas, or apps out there that will tell me what is trying to get my location even when data is off???? i neeeeeeeed this fixed. im getting horriblke battery life. from morning to out of school when my screen on time is 30 mins at most, i ned the school day at like 60-50% and for not using it at all, it should be at 90-75ish. i can barley go through a whole day without hitting the charger....
[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
Yeah. So turn off GPS when you aren't using it. I only enable it when I am routing or using maps. Otherwise, it just wastes battery.
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
but i use the htc flip clock
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
You don't need GPS for the clock. Just VZW and maybe google location
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
thanks for help :D

you need google location. but its google location that causing the problem.... im almost 100% sure. like maps is running, but under processes and services, its showing stuff from google services/location.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
You said GPS so which is it. You will always get google locations for the clock but it uses very little battery
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
Just use titanium backup widget to freeze maps
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
it should, but it shnot.... :(

im almost positive it is google locations that making it wake up 160 times. i have the clock set to 3hrs to auto update. but keep in mind that its doing this even when data is turned off. so no 3g, 4g, E, etc.

in setting>power, it shows maps.

when i go into apps, then running tab in settings, then click maps, its telling me that the service is "Google Location Service" and the process is "maps"but then when it says location/description, it says com.android.apps.maps:GoogleLocationService.

when i click on google servises in running apps, the 2 services are Network Location service and Google messaging service. the processes are "Google Services" and the location/description is com.google.process.gapps
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I have GPS enabled 24/7 and don't notice any problems except when Google Maps goes berserk and starts killing my battery. Normally, leaving GPS on doesn't drain the battery too much. I even have Backitude using GPS to update my location on Latitude every 10 minutes and it really doesn't hardly use any power at all...
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
im gonna download an app called startup auditor which auto kills everything, and ima see if it imporves....
[HTC Rezound] rockehill10:
Since you said you have frozen a number of apps, did you freeze HTC Location Service using Titanium. I don't know what it does, but someone else had suggested getting rid of it. Since I froze it, I have not noticed any negative feedback.

I don't know if it will make any difference to your situation. I am currently at 14 hours since last charge and have 130 wake locks in Maps. I also use GPS/Maps for an hour every morning while it tracks me using Cardio Trainer so I don't know if that would affect the wake locks.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I know I have heard people say this, but I just don't get that problem... I leave my GPS and all location services on all the time, use the Maps app daily (I deliver pizza part time) and never have battery drain issues. My personal phone is typically idle from 7:30 in the morning when I pull it off the charger until 5:00pm when I go to work, and I rarely use more than 1% per hour. The only app I have issues with is Facebook, and I just kill all tasks with ES Task Manager before blanking he screen after I use it (couple times per day). In my opinion. Facebook is one very misbehaving app, it reports your location and uses GPS even when you have all options turned off in it's settings, plus it will use it periodically if you have FB notifications turned on too. If you using the notifications, the Facebook app will even respawn by itself if you kill it, it's a very bad app! And with some battery monitors, any GPS activity will be reported as Maps! (GSam Battery Monitor is bad for this)
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
beat battery monitoring app is betterbatterystats. monitor partial and kernel wakelocks. anything eise is just inaccurate. I don't use anything else to monitor besides that and during 8 hours of sleep it only drops 1%. always turn stuff off when you don't need it. avoid rogue apps like fbook. friendcaster is better. htc location is safe to remove. auto brightness polls so manually adjust as needed. autostarts is useful for disabling apps. monitor what's running in foreground. if certain apps keep switching between that and background then adjusting is needed or a replace the app with something else. majority of time I only have 3 items in running.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Try reinstalling maps maybe?
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
ima try different kernel.... first if not, then yea ima reinstall maps. but im almost postive its google services apk that is making maps run which is draining battery.
[HTC Rezound] cmoshea:
Are you on sebastions or DSB's kernel when this is happening? When I switched to Nil's rom with DSB's kernel maps used 50% of my battery for the first battery cycle but since then (few weeks) it hasn't happened. I never turn off anything and I am getting 30+ hours on my battery. For reference I am at 66% battery and its been unplugged for 9h 54m. Not heavy use but I check for email frequently and have played some games.
