[Nexus 7 General] Ravynmagi:
I'd say the most important thing to decide first is if you want Windows RT, Windows 8, or Android.

Windows RT, you can only run Windows 8 style apps, and there are extremely few of those at the moment.

Windows 8, you can run all Windows apps. But I think the Surface Pro with Windows 8 is gonna be pretty expensive. Acer's W510 however is only $500 and may be available November 8th (not sure when the Surface Pro launches, think I heard as late as January).

Android, you have access to hundreds of thousands of apps designed for mobile devices. And you have a huge choice of hardware configurations, such as a very light 7 inch tablet like the Nexus 7 or a higher end larger 10.1 inch tablet like the Transformer Infinity. Not sure when/if we'll see 7 inch Windows RT/8 tablets.

Might want to decide if you like 7 inches or 10 inches more too... We could possibly have a 10 inch Nexus tablet before the end of the year.

then when finished, download cm10 zip and g-apps for cm10 and flash them
how to flash?
wipe cache

then go in "install from zip" to install your rom then install g-apps

You say "install from Zip". How is that done bud?
[LG Optimus Black] theaks30:
basically when you are in cwm (recovery), you will find a "install from zip...." thing

go in it and then choose your zip that you want to flash

with Tantrum's g-apps you can choose which ones to install and which not to ;)

am sorry, it's "install zip from sdcard"

[HTC One X] Lazieye:
Having come from flashing SGS have read up as much as I can regarding flashing the HOX.

Have held back having a crack at a custom ROM until Jellybean update arrives on stock, to see how it runs.

However, if I do upgrade to stock Jellybean (which would have a new HBOOT?) would it still be possible to load AOSP Rom after.

If i've read correctly, unless I have a Nandroid backup of a custom ROM (whether it be Jellybean or ICS), the new HBOOT will prevent an ICS based ROM but custom Jellybean should be ok?
[HTC One X] _deleted_:
It's a confusing, ill-explained situation a lot of people are confused about.

From what i understand, when upgrading to JellyBean (including the upgraded hboot), you can STILL flash ICS custom roms & nandroid back ups. However, what you will be unable to do is flash any sort of Ice cream sandwich RUU's. This is because, the upgraded hboot will cause errors in the installation (considering the hboot version in the RUU, will be of a totally different earlier version).

Hope this clears it up a little bit.

What's wrong with current rooting method for the 4X?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] TheSSJ:
Nothings wrong with the current way,but why just having only 1 way to root the phone? I thought we are here to experiment instead of staying on the same old method the whole time..maybe there are easier ways to root, and if someone says that this method works,then it IS much easier to root the o4x hd.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] babymatteo:
Well devving and modding can really only go so far with a locked bootloader. And the thing is that, no one is that crazy to try out other things without completely knowing what they're doing or what they're getting into. Yah we want to try other methods, but why risk your $500+ investment with only a 50/50 chance of working/not working, when you can use the other method with 100% chance to work?

I recently installed cm10 on my fathers S3 and everything went smooth until root checker said I did not have root access. I dont see how I missed it, I used the steps from the guide on androidauthority.com as well as the steps from the links the guide provided to install clockworkmod and cm10. My S3 is rooted with cm10 with no issue. but my fathers isnt after the install when i used the same guide. Is there a way to root on cm10 without having to wipe and install the stock rom and then root?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prscarp:
Just reflash the CM10 zip, its pre-rooted. I don't know why its saying you're not rooted in the first place really. Do you see the "Superuser" app in the app drawer?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] simba33:
thats the weird part! haha I see super user, it opens and everything but it never pops up when i open apps that require root, and root checker says it isnt rooted. Ive wiped and installed CM10 twice, as well as the superuser.zip file the guide says to install with clockworkmod.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prscarp:
In the superuser app, try updating the su binary. Maybe that will fix it.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prscarp:
I would redownload the CM10 zip, put it on your sd card, reboot into recovery, make a nandroid if you prefer, wipe system, dalvik, and cache, then flash the newly downloaded CM10 zip and gapps again.

This is definitely a strange problem lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] simba33:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prscarp:
Thats the CM10 zip. Are you using clockwork mod recovery? or TWRP? I haven't had any issues with TWRP.

As long as you dont wipe data you won't lose anything. The only effect this will have is, hopefully, fix root.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] simba33:
I'm using Clockworkmod recovery as advised by the guide.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] simba33:
Yes i ave clockworkmod recovery and I downloaded that cm-10 a couple of weeks ago and I have root. its the same zip. but I downloaded the more recent, (2nd most recent on the site you referred) and it wont install as i stated in my previous post
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prscarp:
That has also never happened to me lol. Right before you flash the zip, select the "Toggle script asserts" option then try to flash.

A little explaination: When you go to flash the zip, it checks your current build.prop to make sure you're flashing the right rom to the right device. Since we wiped system before flashing, the build.prop is gone and it is unable to check. TWRP might not check which is why it has never happened to me. I don't know for sure that this is the case but I am just guessing.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tonymtl:
You need to update recovery.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] prscarp:
You will need to get the android sdk, run it and install the tools. You should then have a platform-tools folder that includes fastboot.exe. place the recovery img in that directory, open a command prompt to that directory, put your phone in fastboot mode and run the command I wrote above.

Sorry about being brief about it, I'm on my phone right now. I can help more later when I'm at a pc.

Sync all your contacts to Google. Then use Google Contacts from your GMail. It has an option to delete the duplicates in the contact list.

I picked up a brand new S3 yesterday. While battery life has been okay before, I was wondering if this is normal. Every other android phone I have had, the screen took up the most battery. On the S3, the cell standby has uses the most... by a lot. Thanks in advance!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] greenglue:
Hi!

I don't know if you searched the forums or not before posting but there are a ton of threads about this.

It is a VERY common bug for the S3 with this 'Cell Standby' taking most of the battery life even when you are in full signal range. I read somewhere that Samsung made a mistake when programming the phones that Cell Standby takes 34mA instead of 3.4mA. Not sure how true this is, but there is a fix available but does require root.

After trying Jelly Bean leaked versions for a bit, I noticed that this bug seems to have fixed.

Another thing you might want to try, is DISABLE LTE! It takes a ton of power even when not in use! Use HSPA or GSM instead depending on your carrier!

Other than that, enjoying your phone so far?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Synyster06Gates:
I was trying to rush to work when I made the thread, but now that I'm looking through this section of the forums, I'm find out it's common. If you could point me in the right direction for the fix, I would really appreciate it! Only thing I'm scared of is having an issue with the new phone and not being able to have it fixed after I root it...

The phone is great so far. I'm coming from 3 different One X's. The camera and screen on the One X definitely destroy the S3, but everything else the S3 seems to hold it's own or have a slight edge over the HTC
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] greenglue:
Good job picking the S3 then! :D

The only fix I found was for root, and just put the cell standby lower down on the list, or not on the list at all. I'm not sure if it made the battery drain slower but definitely changed the %s in the battery settings.

Here's the link just make sure you have the UVALH2 or UVALEM version of ICS first though and download the correct zip!

It uses CWM by the way.

So, in theory I could flash ANY of the modems, correct?
