^^^^^^^ o the very cheek of this!
[Galaxy S III General] zoot1:
Let me ask you something my friend ...have you ever posted a ROM??

If your answer is NO..then you have no idea what you are doing here...the purpose of this website is not to spoon feed people..it is to promote Android development..and what you have tried here will never aid DEVELOPMENT..
[Galaxy S III General] kofiaa:
Indeed, we are discussing not asking about best roms. Then you, yes you BRETTULE, rank the roms. Did you even read what the graf man said originally?!
[Galaxy S III General] dyl666:
I don't see what that guy did that was so wrong. He just posted the most popular ROMs based on statistics.

Also, he has a good point, the cooks keep inventing more and more new acronyms in order to pimp their thread title, and it doesn't help the noobs one bit. Confusing as hell.
[Galaxy S III General] kofiaa:
So I'm safe to assume supernexus is terrible because it's in tenth place? And omega is the best rom because it's the most popular?

And as for the acronyms, just read the threads, or ask. By all means the answer will be there.
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
I suggest you read the thread title, see who it was created by, read the thread and then you might just get IT!
[Galaxy S III General] dyl666:
Nop, still don't get it. The guy said:

Nobody ever said these are the best ROMs, only the most popular judging from the amount of views/replies. Why is that such a bad thing to do?

I don't have a problem with acronyms, just saying it makes things even more confusing for the newcomers. Stuff like "ALLin1", "OUT DA SPACE REL", "RAM FREE"... Besides, I understand that some people don't have the time or will to try out dozens of ROMs, kernels and a gazzilion tweaks and are just looking for a quick solution. Not everyone in here is like you.
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
suggest you leave the building and re-enter via the front door, reading the rules as you enter.

This isn't a place to come if you want a quick fix, it is a place to come to learn and share.....to make a "journey".

If this is too much, then too bad, you are sadly out of luck.
[Galaxy S III General] dyl666:
Let's get something straight. I, unlike 99% of the people on here, am not posting this for my own benefit, but to actually help others.

Again, I have no problem deciphering acrynoms, finding out what ROM works best for me etc.

But I understand that others might have big problems with these things. When I want to see a good movie, I don't watch them all and then decide which one is the best. I go to a site and see how other people rated them and how many watched them, then I pick the one based on that. When I first got into Linux, I didn't try all the distros before deciding which one is the best, I went to distrowatch and saw what the 5 most popular ones are, and picked one out of those. The same applies for so many other things in life.

Sure, it's true that the most viewed ROM/Movie/whatever might not be the best for you, but why is it bad telling people what ROM has the most views?
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
nothing wrong at all......just that this isn't the place to do it.....especially in a thread created by moderators telling you not to do it!

Also, you can go to the dev thread and see how many views/ dl's a Rom has.

Spoon feeding isn't part of the agenda unfortunately ;)
[Galaxy S III General] dyl666:
I remember when my mom used to spoon feed me. Good days. Now I have to cut my own meat ffs. :(
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:

[Galaxy S III General] zoot1:
[RANT]

Lets get something striaghter..who are these 99% of the people you are referring to posting for their own benefits...Last I looked everything post here was free and no one begged anyone to use it...

Don't try to flame unnecessarily..

Unlike the examples you have given above..XDA-DEVELOPERS.com is neither a movie nor a Linux Distro released to the general public for consumption..the ROMs posted here are not for public consumption..they are meant for people who know and understand the basic functioning of the Software.....

That is why you don't have a "ROM Watch" to tell you which ROM is the best..

Regarding telling people which ROM has most views> If the person looking for the ROM is not blind and/or retarded..will surely be able to look at that stat..it is out there for everyone to see..

nd for the nth time..this site is meant of

Development

...please have a relook at your priorities if you are not here for the same...

[/RANT]
[Galaxy S III General] Wisheezy:
So what is the best rom?

lol im joking, don't ban me ::angel:
[Galaxy S III General] mputtr:
I'm not asking anyone to rank the roms, but use your own brain to figure it out. As many many many people here have said, ROM use is dependant on preference.

Stop the fighting and seriously just test it out yourself.

Like it has also been said, this isn't a place for you to just come in and demand things. The purpose of this whole site is to learn, not to be spoonfed.
[Galaxy S III General] jayharper08:
I think it's best to go ahead and just leave this stickied and closed. For now, it will remain how it is. That is NO best rom/kernel threads. They will all get closed for, as they always turn out just like this one is now. You see?

Have a good one. ;):D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsngfrce:
Expecting support from a dev on a free app, I don't know. But if I purchase an app, I expect a certain level of support from the developer (I know that some disagree with this).I'd like to complement several devs of paid apps that have provided support BEYOND my expectations. These are only my experiences and I'm sure there are many great devs that I haven't had reason to contact, so please add to the list! (Note: devs who are very active on XDA are almost a given as providing excellent support for their paid apps, so I'm not mentioning Chainfire, for example, though you can!). AND... there ARE certainly many devs of FREE apps that provide tireless support, but that's not what I am focusing on in this thread.

Devs who provide EXCELLENT support for paid apps (in my personal experience);

darken ... SD Maid Pro :good:

3c ... Android Tuner :good:

Anyone Managed to get the preinstalled MP3 Player to work with a DLNA Server?

I've tried with Windows mediaplayer, Serviio and PS3 Mediaserver.

But i only get connection failed Or No Songs

But it does work with the MediaHouse app!

Any Idea? I'd like to use the floating Player and the notifications.

Which version of Windows are you using?

Have you enabled file and printer sharing on your Windows computer?

Have you successfully shared items from your Windows computer to other devices?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhd1802:
i have tried serviio and plex with no luck.

stock video player error is "contents location is not available. check network status and connected device"

stock music player error is "data connection failed"

stock gallery just shows a black tile with "media server (0)

would be nice if it worked without a 3rd party app :mad:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
I'm using Plex to stream videos (movies/tv shows) to my Galaxy S3, Note 10.1 and Note 2.

Only downside is it doesnt supporr subtitles.

It's not great but it does the job.

I havent tried Plex with any music.. I might give it a try some time and let you know.

You might want to try to change your sharing settings for Public sharing on your Win7 since the device is not part of your Windows "private" network.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhd1802:
Are you using the stock video app to access content on your plex server?

Can speak for the op, but my contents shared correctly. I have no issues with accessing my content with multiple media streamers and two HTC phones with serviio or plex... It's just the note that can't access it.

I did try twonky server demo last night, and managed to get pictures showing in the gallery!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haldi4803:
Any idea where? Windows7 sharing options are a pain in the ass!

So, PS3 Media Server and MedaHouse app work fine for Music and Video Streaming. But Reconverting doesn't work... Trying 840x480 Videos works fine. but 1920x1080 isn't streaming well. Seeing 1 picture for 3 seconds, some sound noises and then maybe a next picture.

Some1 tried a fullHD video on the Tablets Memory ? Does that work ?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
- Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Sharing Center\Advanced sharing settings

- Under Public - Media streaming you will find "Choose media streaming options", click on that.

- From there you will see "Show devices on:" choose All networks.

- If your device isnt listed there by name, then it must be marked as an "Unknown Device" and is Blocked on the right, Allow them one by one and see if it shows up on your device.

But i have some bad news, when I tested that myself and doing this makes it show just fine using my Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 to play Music or Videos on my machine, but not Galaxy Note 10.1 for some reason!

- I tried a 720p mkv rip from my sdcard and it worked perfectly on it.

- No, i'm actually using the Plex player from the app.. i didnt think of looking around if its possible to use the stock video player..

Check my reply to Haldi4803. Kinda weird it works with my S3 and Note 2 but not my Note 10.1.

Will check more and reply here if i find anything.

No Idea why! But i startet up Media Player on my Laptop today and then used media house for remote control! don't ask me why but I also startet up normal media player and pressed "find near" it found the laptop and worked!!!

gotta test if it works on my normal pc too...

Edit: NO it doesn't ! But only the Music library seems broken! Pictures and Videos do work!

Installed Twonky 7 now... that seems to work!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haldi4803:
Oh well. i've tested a few DLNA/UPnP Apps on my tablet.

Twonky Beam (outdated) and BubbleUPnP Are my favorite atm. Mainly because they support DMR so you can play stuff from any other DNLA device ON the Tablet! Twonky beam is better because you can play music from Tablet to computer and also at the same tame from phone to the tablet!

If you try that with BubbleUPnP it stops the laptop playing from the Tablet!

But on the other hand If you use Twonky Beam to stream Youtube Videos to the Laptop you can't minimize it! BubbleUPnP works fine minized

BubbleUPnP also has a Player control on the Lockscreen and in the notificaton Menue. And it's easier to use chose server/Device and Library.

I really don't understand whats the problem...my galaxy 10.1 finds and plays all my music that is shared over the network (either from desktop pc, laptops or other devices connected to wifi. Stock music player works flawlesly and finds all music if i choose nearby devices. Another option is allshare that finds and plays media from computers, wd tv live hub and other phones/tablets. So either I don't understand what the problem is, or you are doing something wrong. I can even get music to note from my network server over wifi and then stream it to my dlna sony hifi. It works flawlessly. My only complaint is that apparently dlna doesn't support mp3 tags so you can't filter music by artists, albums, ...

How to Change Battery Icon to % in Senseless Rom. Is there any flashable Zip to do so? If so please Provide it. Thanks by the way .:D
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
I don't know of any flashable zip out there, but you can make one :)

Learn to DIY (do it yourself :)).

What you need is a archiver tool like WinRAR or any other archiver, take the framework-res.apk from system/framework of your senseless, and open it in the archiver tool or extract it in some folder, find the .png of the battery out there in the .apk, and you can replace the .png's with whatever icons you want, or you can use the kitchen to do this thing, search for tutorials out there in the www :).
[HTC Sensation XL] stona175:
To make it you need a uot or apk tool. If you change only png you will get nothing.

Lex go back to cook your kernel :)
[HTC Sensation XL] anders3408:
And the uot he means uot kitchen ;)
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
Well, i did it the way i said and it worked on Incredibly Cool Sense v3, the zip is out here :) There are various ways to get things done, i exemplified my way of doing this kind of things, with no apk tool and no kitchen :)

--

I also made a whole custom-edited rom using this method on the Dell Streak 5 :), so it is possible.

--

I fogot to mention that after you change the /png, you copy all the contents of you folder you dezarchived in the .apk you opened with your archiver tool, in this way you don't need to sign the apk or other things like that :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] sevenmad:
I found this from freeyourandroid.com thought i would share it. I would happy If an experienced user has anything to say about it:

The following lines in the build.prop file can be added and edited to change several properties in your device:

debug.sf.hw = 1

Render UI with GPU (relieves pressure on CPU)

dalvik.vm.heapsize = 32m

Set size of Dalvik VM heap (how much RAM each instance of the VM is allowed); depending on how much RAM that is available to a device, this can be increased.

persist.adb.notify = 0

Stop debugging icon from appearing in status bar

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec = 120

Increase to improve scrolling response

persist.sys.use_dithering = 0

Do not use surface dithering (surface dithering improves image quality)

debug.sf.nobootanimation = 1

Disable boot animation

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ = 1

force home launcher into memory

ro.sf.lcd_density = 240

Set screen density; change according to your device or what suits you, a lower value will display more but may be too small to use on a device with a smaller screen. Also note that changing the pixel density will make some applications in the new market ‘incompatible with your device’.

mot.proximity.delay = 150

Lower to fix black screen after calls issue

ro.telephony.call_ring.delay = 0

Decrease dialling out delay

ro.gsm.2nd_data_retry_config = max/_retries=3, 2000, 2000, 2000

Change MMS APN retry timer from 5s to 2s

wifi.supplicant_scan_interval = 120

ro.ril.disable.power.collapse = 0

pm.sleep_mode = 1

Increase battery saving potential

ro.com.android.dataroaming=true

Enables data-roaming by default in the build

ro.com.android.dateformat=dd-MM-yyyy

Changes default date format to day-month-year

ro.config.alarm_alert=*.ogg

ro.config.ringtone=*.ogg

ro.config.notification_sound=*.ogg

Changes the default sounds for each item. Must correlate to ogg files available in /system/media/audio/

ro.build.display.id=NAMEOFROM

In Settings>About Phone, it lists the name of the build number. This is where you set it.

ro.product.locale.language=en

ro.product.locale.region=GB

Sets the default region and language. You must have the correct letter combo, and the language must be available for this to work.

video.accelerate.hw=1 or 0

Whether to use hardware acceleration to render videos, doesn’t work on all devices

** Mind you, my attempt to change failed, because it said "failed to save". You probably wont have this problem. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] MyDeSTiNaTe:
Some add-ons

Please always do a backup before you made any changes

And try to do it one by one or at least group by group

So you would know which are working and which are not

And easier to revert changes

Good luck

HERE THEY COME:

According to some CM7 users, it is better for us to add debug.composition.type=cpu, please kindly refer to: http://madteam.co/forum/tutorials/(tut)big-performance-increase-on-cm79/

Hello guys, my name is nick and I am new to this forum. I just rooted my One V and while i was testing some ROMs (eg. Android Paranoid) I found that FM radio app is not included in it. I know I should have posted it in the ROM thread but i am just saying are there any FM radio apps for custom build ROMs that work well with HTC One V ?

Additional Info :-

I have already tried SPIRIT FM but somehow that doesn't seem to work on my phone.

SpiritFM works fine with the one v

the reason there's no radio app's is because there is none for android 4.*.*+
