[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jcnbama:
So I have been trying to play GTA III lately. I notice some lag in my play sometimes it will completely STOP until it catches up. It's quite annoying. Now I would think that our SII could handle such a task. I have it over clocked with SetCPU. I have it in airplane mode. And clear other apps out of memory before I start playing. Are there any other gaming tweaks / mods I could utilize I'm not aware of. I've run other games like Dead Trigger, BIA 2, Skies of Glory with no issue. This just lags and sticks ALOT.. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:
What ROM or kernel? Also, if you had the game, then clean flashed, it might not delete the extra game files you downloaded. This causes issues with the game when you reinstall. Try deleting the app, reinstalling clean, and redownloading the files.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jcnbama:
I'm running the legendary Darkside Evolution version 8 with TDJ'S kernel. (Should have included this duh ) I've never flashed over this game. First time install. Thanks for the input!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tony5593:
I'm on Paranoid Android and not overclocking and I've played GTA3 for hours today with not one hiccup. It's awesome. With CM10 and other Roms I've used, different kernels and overclocking it worked great but it had it's occasional lag.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] anomy13:
I think that if you were running TDJ's rom/kernel, it would be sufficient to run GTA 3 smoothly. However, still try different rom/kernel combos.

Last time I was playing GTA 3 was when I had AOKP ICS MS4/TDJ's AOKP kernel and i never lagged.

***Also, try switching governors/schedulers to Smartassv2/sio. or to go even extreme performance/sio and see if it still lags. And play around with different combos.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
The thing is that he has the best possible ROM to play this game on. TDJs kernel actually has the GPU overclocked. There's something screwing up your installation. If I were you I'd titanium back up your apps and make a clean reinstall of your evo 8 installation. I guarantee you that would fix it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jcnbama:
Thanks for all the help! I'll look into doing these. I used an Aroma installer call. "pimp my rom", maybe it made modifications to TDJ'S Rom in the negative...

To get better gaming performance flash the supremacy script v2.

Gaming performance has increased for me and my users a lot after flashing this. It also comes with a bunch of other tweaks to. I use it in my Rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jcnbama:
So, is there a lot of difference in this and the pimp my rom mod? Just curious. And also should I perform a fresh flash before I install this rather than installing it on top of the pimp my rom mod?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Project: Awesome:
Nope my rom uses both. When you flash the supremacy script it deletes any tweaks from pimp my rom that might interfere with its own.

So you don't have to "de-pimp" your rom.

Just on off topic question. When I play GTA, I use tilt mode, but it always swerves to the right, and when I put my phone straight up, it turns straight. I was wondering if anyone has a solution to this? I'm sure many people have experienced it and I haven't found a solution through Google search. MIUI 4.1 with h0tcakez 2.3.3.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] retaclark23:
I have a Samsung Note that I tried to upgrade when the ICS update leak came out, and it changed the Baseband to I717UCLC5 (which is ICS) but the Kernel is still 2.3.6 (GB).

I've tried Odin, and it always fails, I've tried rooting, it fails, and I'm stuck on GB and want to update/root/anything.

I think I need to either flash the Baseband back to GB stock, or the Kernel up to 4.0.3? If so, does anyone have the download for the i717?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnrippa:
Connect to Odin and try to flash clockwork recovery from stickied rooting thread.. If that succeeds then put your external SD into another device and download a custom ics kernel from dev section. Put the sd card back into the phone. Boot into recovery and flash the kernel zip. Your phone should now be able to start.

Right now you have a GB kernel on an ICS ROM. That's why it boot loops.

Follow this to get back to stock gingerbread and reroot. After that be sure and update cwm or flash twrp and choose any of our phones fine ROMs or the official ICS to flash in your new recovery . Ur choice after u r up and going.

And with using Odin u should see a yellow box with numbers on the left of ur PC screen. If not u need to update the drivers for the note on ur PC.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Sharpen3d:
I got this a while ago during google's 10 cent sale, and got my money's worth on my HTC Magic. Now with this update I'm back to ADW. it looks beautiful, runs great AND let's me do a tablet drawer without changing density or anything. Slim CM and ADW, I'm a happy kid. Its definitely worth trying, remember ADW was the launcher of choice in Cyanogen 7.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SwiftLegend:
Oh how I've missed ADW. Apex is sort of like it, because they always have the the latest and greatest features. Hopefully the dev stays with it
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] player911:
I used ADW a lot on my Transformer Tablet but moved to Apex after ICS for the newer features. Apex has tablet mode built-in in the Settings>Homescreen options. Anymore launcher themes are universal and there are no lack of choices on any of the major launchers... which was one of the main selling points of ADW.

So while this is a great solution to those who have already purchased ADW in the past, it isn't so great for some who've already moved on to something else.

I will give it a shot though. The video looks like there are some nice features. One thing I loved about ADW was the icon size and font text.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] cdmackay:
Slightly OT, but just upgraded to the new ADW on my Note/CM10 (from the old ADW), and it is really nice.

Took a while to sort out my settings, but I like it, even better than the old.

Tip: if the dock disappears, add a Gesture to unhide it, and try that.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] tonybhoy:
just read the adw OVERVIEW and it only goes up to jb4.1,so when 4.2 drops its no use
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SolsticeZero:
Not necessarily. I don't think there are enough changes on the front end to make this not work with 4.2. The only reason it goes up to 4.1 at the moment is because that's all that's out.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] uncelebrated:
I followed the guide at galaxys3root dot com (galaxys3root com/galaxy-s3-unroot/how-to-unroot-t-mobile-galaxy-s3-sgh-t999/)

but, I keep getting this message "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped."

The phone charges, shows up on my computer, and turns on/off just fine, but I cannot leave the lock screen. I don't think it is bricked...? I've tried to unroot/reinstall stock rom 3 times now and nothing has changed.

Do I just need to do a factory reset?

Please help.

Thank you

I've been using the vulkano player app for about 2 years .

on all honcomb roms it works fine

all roms above that starting from ICS stock to every ICS to JB the player video stops working and becomes unusable until i reboot the unit. (A500)

I also have a galaxy 7 the player runs fine on ICS Stock/ROOT/cm10/baked beans and so on (tried to get help on the vulkano- no soap)

any one else have this problem ?

ps: thanks to all members of the forum of this form .. when I first started rooting my tablets it took hours to get a rooted version and now because you guys it takes less then 10 minutes to go back to any rom . thanks and

thanks for any help on the above
[Acer Iconia A500] themechaniac:
No help from the app developer? Might be time to find a new app!

Have you tried other players?
[Acer Iconia A500] Eric Karz:
can't give up

The app is made for android so you can watch tv over network /internet-Wirelessly . It's the main reason i got a acer A500 (10 inch wireless tv lol)

i cooked< i think that's the term> my 1st rom yesterday ...but ended up having to get another launcher ....tv app runs good on it .

the tv app seem to be the program for me to check for leaks

IF it cant stream like in honeycomb then i am probably going to find problem using other apps that are flash related .... as it will do the same with video.

i see that a lot of JB roms have a bad problem with the lock rotation button..

:eek:
[Acer Iconia A500] Eric Karz:
so no one besides me uses the vulkano player app on the A500 besides me

OR does every one that has it , it works fine for them ?
[HTC Sensation] ProGTO:
Well, like the title says I haven't been checking for Sensation root stuff for some time. I want to know whats good for sensation today. I plan to bring my phone to school so want to set it up as best as possible. What's a good combination to use now, like what rom, kernel, and mods together? Checked out some of the updated roms and CM10 looks pretty awesome now that everything is working. Sad to see ViperS still at 1.3.5. Well, could someone tell me what is the top roms, kernesl and mods as of today. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Hi there. You should try out a few for yourself and see what you think. I'm using the jelly bean paranoid Android and I think it's pretty awesome. Recommended kernels are on it's site. This is such a subjective question because it's just a matter of opinion. But give the new jelly bean roms a try and see what you think. Paranoid Android had been pretty stable for me and most everything is working well. But like I said try out several and than decide which you like best. As for viper I believe the development slowed because developer just got married. Not sure when it will pick back up again. I was running viper but jumped ship to try jelly bean. Also because of slow development right now but viper is also a great rom. Like I said try out several then see which fits you best. As for mods just check out there development section and see what catches your eyes. I've download a camera mode and when I was on viper I was using the new pydx kernel with mod. Just experiment for yourself and see what you like. But do try jelly bean. It's pretty amazing!

Best wishes and Hope this helps.

Hey all,

After finally getting this thing rooted I downloaded cleanrom v5. During the aroma setup menu, I selected for the rom to have the battery percentage displayed on battery icon. To me the way the percentage is displayed is very ugly with its big font and the way it dims the green of the indicator. I'm coming from the evo lte where all the "stockish" battery mods didn't look like this (see screenshot). I searched this forum and only found one mod but it was for the 1.85 firmware. Is anyone planning on or currently working on any battery mods for the hoxl 2.20? Any info is greatly appreciated.

Oh my bad.. but I did download it and tried to flash it while running cleanrom and it broke my status bar/system ui

So I was looking at the LG nexus 4 design and I liked it until I saw the back it looks too much like the iPhone 4/4s, I would be ashamed to pull this out of my pocket infront of a crowd. When people see it they are not going to say "hey thats the new nexus" their going to say "look LG copied the iPhone". So many android fans criticised iPhone for easily breaking but when a nexus phone COPIES it then it becomes okay, talking about being biased.

I mean I'm no head of design for apple but it's just an absolute copy if their where lots of phones with glass backs then it would be just another phone with a glass back, but the only phone that has that and has had that for 2 years is the iPhone I just can't understand. I was watching a video made by verge in google hq about the nexus 10, 7 and they said they choose the design to their liking then they obviously are a fan of the iPhone. I like the nexus 4 design but its been taken by another company I want apple to sue LG this is absolutely wrong companies like samsung and LG don't end up in court for no reason.

Another thing I noticed was the camera was underneath the glass panel but the camera flash light had a black ring around it which looked awful. if your going to copy someone atleast do it properly. It just goes to show that this is LG where talking about. I've heard a saying a person who copies another cannot do it better then the original because they intend to also inherit the same mistakes as the original. I've come to conclusion that all the mistakes to iphones made by shattering easily LG just did. I don't care if LG copies but this is a nexus android flagship, it is this device which will be compared to the iPhone /4s/5. How do you feel about the design I think they should have gone for the same back casing as nexus 10.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pragmata:
I'm all for public appearances, but don't you think that not getting a phone because of what "people will think" when you pull it out of your pocket is a bit... well, selling what the device is a little short?

If you don't like the design, that's one thing, but not buying a phone because of what you think other people will think is convoluted to even type. xD I'd just a soon take the opportunity to tell them, "Heck no this isn't an iThing! It's the Nexus 4 and waaaaay better. Check out what Android can do." If even by your own admission it's a nice design, why let the fact that an iThing has it degrade it? If anything, it's a time to claim look who did it best!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr8cture:
To say the Nexus 4 looks like a iPhone just because of a glass back is insane. It looks NOTHING like the iPhone. It has a pattern on the glass and it is rounded more than that Brick.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliHTCDHD:
When I said I didn't like the nexus 4 back design it wasn't because I care what people think that was just an example of what it reminds people of. I know that the nexus 4 does'nt look anything like an iPhone but the back does. Yes I know it has some sort of crystals but it still looks like an iPhone because only the iphone has a glass back, if more then the iPhone had a glass back then it would be okay but only the iPhone has a glass back.

Their was no need for the crystal effect that they used, only because without that it really would look like the back panel of an iPhone. Those crystals or what ever they are called are usually used on girly products handbags, jewellery etc I'm not saying men can't have diamonds and crystals on their clothes and products but they do say diamonds are a girl's best friend and they do attract the female audience more. If a girl sees the phone they will say how pretty because believe me it will attract them its true.

Another thing why hasn't anyone criticised it for being easily shattered like the iPhone or slippery. One more thing the nexus 4 does share a lot in common with the iPhone 4 double sided glass,metal or aluminium around it. I know the nexus is more rounded and it is absolutely identical to the galaxy nexus but the back panel is just wrong. One of the comments said that if anyone thinks the nexus 4 looks like the iPhone 4/4s because of the glass back panel are crazy then you are seriously insane for think it doesn't, why could they have not used polycarbonate or aluminium. Believe me because of this design the nexus 4 will probably be ban in some countries by the ITC, Apple already attempted to ban the nexus but dut to it having a battery hump and camera humo they failed but not this time especially with the use of a micro-sim and sealed battery.

Because we don't have any real REVIEWS and there is no indication that it's any more slippery than other devices? Have you held this device yet?

This entire thread is pretty amusing, especially the OP.

I'm not going to argue for or against it looking like an iPhone or whatever.

However, I was under the impression that Apple picked glass for functional reasons and not purely for aesthetics. I believe it allows wireless signals through more easily than most metals and is tougher than most plastics.

So LG may have chosen it for the same reasons?
