[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MFD00M:
ok thanks, i'll be trying that later tonight. will report back if that's my issue.

FWIW, I have not taken ANY OTA's since i've had the phone on release day. (for fear of losing the ability to root and unlock the bootloader at the time) If I Odin back to F2, will it revert bootloader/recovery? If so will i still be able to re-flash the unsecure bootloader?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WasabiWa83:
Me neither. I wipe dalvik only every time with no issues.

I just flashed the update. Never took an ota myself. It worked fine for me.

Same here. See above. I just flash the recovery one and have never had issues. But if multiple mods are not working, I would tend to argue that it's the ROM or a bad flash or something, not the mods. Hopefully a fresh install fixes it. Also, make sure you set up the rom before you flash the mods. Maybe even reboot once more before flashing themes or mods.

Huge thank you to knowledge561 for his original tutorial. Without it this would have not been possible.

All I did was simply create a easy to use tool to make converting the images much easier for everyone.

This was made/written with CDMA E3D in mind but GSM flashing instructions are included as well.

knowledge561s original HowTo can be found here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1193698

What is a Splashscreen?

The splashscreen is the image that shows up before recovery/your ROM's bootscreen/etc... By default, it is the white screen with green HTC lettering.

All of the instructions are included in the download and its pretty self explanatory.

Huge thanks to PoF, knowledge561, and Kfunk. Without them I never would have figured this out. If I am forgetting anyone let me know and I will add you to the list.

Hope this is of use and hope it works for you.

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a good task switch er, something like ctrl tab in windows that can be controlled by the notification, gesture or long press of home key that works on the kindle hd ?

I would like to use it to capture notes into one note and easily switch between one note and the ebook reading apps.

Thanks in advance

A better idea may be to get aNdClip. It allows you to store multiple items in your clipboard (up to 100 for the free version) to called back whenever you want. It would prevent you from having to switch back and forth between apps.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ed hit:
Hi all, and thanks in advance for a noob.

I have reviewed the guide by Droidstyle and a few others pretty extensively. I take to heart his advice about backing up imei. Going from his thread to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1852255 (Comprehenseive IMEI/EFS backup); this seems to be the most up to date an currently used method for this?

Question boils down to: Is it safe to root before I back up IMEI? This would allow me to just go into the second method listed using terminal emulator (which I assume is here https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDEsImNvbS5jaXR5YXBwLnRlcm1pbmFsZGVsdXhlIl0.) and seems much easier to do than messing around with ADB.

While you are at it, feel free to tell me which ROM I should try for my daily driver! Thanks in advance.

(PS, I have searched this, and I did used to spend a bunch of time rooting and flashing with my old samsung moment). But I have no experience other than parroting what smarter people than I tell me to do. :)

Looking forward to trying some of this out!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x-y-no:
Yeah, doing it after rooting is fine. But to be safe you want to do it before flashing a custom rom. That's apparently when some people have lost their IMEI settings.

As for what rom to use, that's obviously a matter of taste and where on the spectrum from stability to bleeding edge you personally feel comfortable. For me, this is my work phone as well as personal phone so I really need stability and everything working. I run CleanRom and am very happy with that. (I confess I really like TouchWiz)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kevin619:
Yes! I you can do after rooting and you can do more things after rooting.

I use Nova launcher instead of TW as I need to have the landscape option on my home screen when I use it in my car.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ed hit:
Thanks all. Boils down to that I am safe to root and then back up imei which sounds good to me!

Thanks for the votes on cleanROM; definitely looking at that but also thinking on synergy.

Hi, I am familiar with this forum but I have never posted anything. Ok anyways I just ordered a Chinese knockoff phone called the Hero 2000+ of the Iphone 5, it comes as an android os instead of the ios. The reason I ordered this was to experiement with it, plus I like how the Iphone looks but dont care for the IOS. So I know MIUI makes a custom rom with an Iphone theme, so my question is can this be installed in a chinese knockoff? I would love to have the best of both worlds.

they sell this phone on android-sale

[HTC Rezound] ijrod21i:
As the title suggests, typing is very difficult on my Rezound. It has been since I first got it. As I try and type, my key presses take a long time to register. This happens to me regardless of rom or keyboard. Does anyone else have this problem and know of a fix? Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Hmmm... I have heard of this, but mostly on custom ROMs using Swype, the fix was to enable Force GPU rendering in the Settings-Developer options section. If it is enabled already, try disabling it.

Other than that, does everything else that uses the touchscreen work fine? Have you done a factory reset?
[HTC Rezound] im_high_tech:
I have always used the SwiftKey keyboard to type. At the moment I am using the Adrenaline 2.0 Rom and in Landscape mode there is significantly more lag vs portrait mode. I'm flashing an Rage 1.6 atm. Hopefully that will change it.

Or maybe I just text way too fast.. lol
[HTC Rezound] ijrod21i:
Thanks for the response. I'm not a big fan of Swype. I am currently using SwiftKey but I have tried many different keyboards. I never type in landscape but I just tried typing in landscape and am getting the same issues with "sticky" keys. I've tried enabling gpu rendering for a week, and then disabling it for a week and have the issue regardless.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] namaui:
Trying to be a showoff, I decided to let my Blaze drain down to near-zero so I could get a screenshot of the battery stats page in CM. Unfortunately, it shut down when it hit "0" on the battery meter, and when I plugged it in to charge a few minutes later, it came up to the battery charge screen with the icon of the grey battery, and then shut off.

I can get it into clockworkmod and download mode while on AC power or plugged into my computer, but neither will charge it. Upon reboot while off AC or USB power, the Samsung logo flashes for less than a second and then shuts off. No CM boot animation whatsoever.

A voltmeter shows 3.65 volts on the battery, but I'm assuming the available amperage is extremely low and can't provide the required juice to boot it up completely. Any ideas would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] masterofthedamned:
boot into cm, backup and flash a different rom and see if it will charge

i had to do that with a droid x i bought off ebay, someone had flashed a version of miui that had a bug which caused it to think the battery was always full and wouldnt allow the phone to charge
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Quick7135:
Amps is a measurement of current.

Voltage is a measure of the charge and 3.65 volts is still a good amount. The nominal voltage for the battery is likely to be 3.2v and you're nowhere near that. For example if it took about 3 hours to run the battery down from 4.2v (full charge) to 3.65v then you should be able to run the device for maybe a couple more hours before the battery is close to being drained.

[just a guess here]

The firmware does battery management. Shuts off the device when it thinks the battery is about drained and stops charging when it thinks the battery is at about full capacity. The software is probably out of sync with the physical state of the battery (calibration) and thinks the battery is at zero when it actually has plenty left. Or it has a bug. If you can't find an easy way to wipe/reset the calibration data then I'd go with the advice above and re-flash or flash something else.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] namaui:
Thanks for the quick response, I think your guess was pretty accurate. An hour ago I cleared the battery stats in CWM, and after a few more battery pulls and reboots at the Samsung logo I left it alone while plugged into the AC charger. Came back 45 minutes later to a warm handset with a black screen and after holding the power button down for a good 15-20 seconds I booted normally into CM with a 12 percent charge.

Because I was able to get into CWM and download mode just fine (and run off battery for a few minutes), I was starting to think I broke CM. Glad I didn't get punchy and reflash.

And yes, you're right about amps, I was implying amp-hours with the wrong term.
