[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] microdot:
It is weird how experiences differ from device to device. I flashed the jelly bean leak from Incubus (rl 11) and I have had no issues. Battery life seems normal with the display taking up most of the usage which is normal. GPS works great...everything works great...no issues. I just installed the leaked rom and did not flash any new or different radios. I'm still on HE
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
It's very common with this phone (and most Android phones in general). Some people have issues with media wakelock, gps, battery life, some don't. Consider yourself lucky :)

if your talking about ule cleanrom then yes its the second rom i tried after jellywiz...i even reformatted internal sd and flashed his rom. lag starts after a day or 2 with no reboot. when i say bad battery life im talking about 15hrs with 2.5-3hrs screen on. on ics i get 24-30hrs with 4.5+hrs screen on. jellybean is not terrible in anyway...but i do think its been way over hyped.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HHF2:
No, not Clean-ROM, there is a thread by Alex C. that is basically the stock image with root, etc. Try flashing it and I also flash Kinda Crap mods and all its good. You, as you know, have to de-bloat.

ok ill check out...thx

I posted a list of stuff I froze in cleanrom 4.0 in the clean rom thread. After freezing that stuff I have no media drain or lag. Battery is similar to ICS but I have only had this setup for two days so it's too early to give a definite result yet.

Edit: two things for people to try who have battery issues

1. Disable Picasa sync. This is done under your Google account.

2. Disable these programs: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33723996#post33723996

I also went back to ICS after flashing JB (Official Leaked). My phone tend to lock up randomly when using apps (those apps never froze the phone before) to the point of pulling the battery out or wait few minutes for the phone finally to acknowledge it is frozen. However, performance seems to be well. Battery is a little worse. Developers did have quite of bit time tweaking ICS and using finalized build, not leaked.

Props to all developers/programmers.

Battery seems worse on jb even on aosp.
[General Questions and Answers] carlyle69:
Hello everybody,

I was wondering if theres a way to create swap memory on a Galaxy Pocket S5300?

I read somewhere that it needs to be supported by the kernel, well vm00 (sorry if i got that wrong) made a kernel for the S5300.

I flashed vm00_v1.00 without any problems.

Unfortunately i can't post in that thread, so i cant ask there but if you know anything regarding swap please let me know:)

I was also wondering if anyone is working on a CM for the S5300? or any other roms for that matter, since we now have someone working on kernels.

Thank you.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] jackmauro:
Hi everybody,

I've installed a CyanMobile eXperience release on my Gio, everything is working fine except an error installing some application.

When i run the APK installation, it says a useless "Application not installed" error; restoring these apps by Titanium Backup, it took infinite time and nothing is installed.

Running ADB LOGCAT, the unique error i've found is:

Cannot install platform packages to user storage

Googling it seems to be a protection inserted in all new CyanogenMod releases, however on my old CyanogenMod nightly rom, i haven't got any problem.

Is there any way to bypass this check, possibly without resign apks, since i don't even have any certificate?

Thank you

Jack

Nobody have any idea? I suppose this error is not limited to this release...

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
Hi,

I just got a new Sony Xperia TX and set it up on my Wi-Fi connection. I found it really slow even though the Wi-Fi connection is excellent.

I tried turning the phone off and then back on again but the slow internet connection remains. Sometimes apps etc work as they should and quite quickly but most of the time they don't. By in large the loading screen appears when I try to connect to PlayStore or Chrome browser or twitter etc.

I can't figure it out, its like there is something wrong but I don't know how to fix it. I bought the phone on Ebay and I am just wondering maybe its not built to the same spec as what you would get in a phone store. Any ideas ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
reboot your router
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
I installed pc companion and it gave me the latest Sony Xperia software even though the phone said I had the most up to date software. It seems to be working better now. I thought I bought a dud phone

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
sorry I didn't spot the sub form.

Well the phone has been running a lot quicker than when I got it but there is still a small bit of hit and miss. Even though I have WiFi the phone sometimes has problems downloaded emails from Hotmail or some apps would not load up first time. I would restart them and most of the time the app. Why it wouldn't work first time is odd. For a few days there I could not connect to Hotmail and download emails even though I could in the browser. Other times it would not load up an email from the menu.

Any ideas ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
i often the the connection error when checking emails with hotmail and the email client. Is this common ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
my hotmail is working again but its hit and miss... there is error somewhere
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
I have an Sony Xperia TX and its running Android version 4.0.4. I keep getting connection error messages with my hotmail account.

Its hit and miss, sometimes it will work other times it will not. When trying to retrieve emails from the server I get the connection error", other times when the email is on my phone the email won't load but another email from hotmail would load? It only seems to be hotmail and my other email accounts work and don't seem to have a problem.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] papped:
Try setting it up as an exchange account
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
I have several accounts already but i set up a new corporate account (same thing as exchange). I used my hotmail email and password and both were correct. It goes and checks for incoming settings and the following error appears :

Is there some incoming and outgoing settings in general that the phone should have in order to make best use of the WiFi ? It should always be on and connected to the internet without any problems
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] papped:
Did you specify the hotmail address settings correctly? m.hotmail.com for the exchange server.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
As far as i know You have to set them up manually. Look for the settings in Google, there are numerous sites with settings for hot mail.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:
I did a full re install of my software this morning and still have errors.

When setting up a new exchange account it would not accept my hotmail. I tried m.hotmail.com and it said it could not connect to the server at all. It said

Eventually I did get it to connect (using the same username and password and hotmail.com but no extra or different settings).

At the moment the error I currently have is

"Could not update from Facebook - Please tap to retry" when I hit the retry it just brings me to the main android screen and doesn't try to load up facebook app or connect again.

My Xperia X8 work fine although a lot slower than the Xperia TX. I never have any connection problems with it but it does not hold numerous apps in memory. The Xperia TX feels like it cannot handle numerous apps running and connecting at the same time.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] aindriu80:

Hi,

I am not able to work with Link2SD on Xperia Arc with latest ICS ROM. (LT15i BL Locked, ROM 4.1.B.0.587), it seems that with that ROM, the phone won't recognize correctly the second card partition (i am trying with ext3).

After flashing the ROM and rooting, i install Link2SD from playstore, and then start to install the apps from play store. At first Link2SD moves the apps without any problems to sdext2 partion, but after a while the phone becomes irresponsive and sometimes reboots...

Have a i made something wrong? I have the very same SD card (26GB FAT 32 + 3.70 ext3) running without any problems on my LT18i BL Unlocked runnig AOKP Build5...

Have you experience this guy

?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oswade:
Yep there is a topic on it in general section I think. "ink marks" or something. Personally I think it is not a major problem. I have 2 or 3 tiny spots but most of the time we don't use the phone in a pitch black environment, nor are we looking at a pure black screen (how often do you spend in the homescreen?). It would however be an issue if it was noticable during movies, games etc, where the viewing experience is paramount :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crest+:
Yes true, it would be an issue if it was visible while watching movies and such.. but question is how long should this ink spot last compare to the other parts of the screen?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDogg1329:
Yes I have them and it annoys me. And I don't understand why people defend it and say it's okay, we've all paid a lot of money for these phones how is it okay or acceptable to have black dots all over the screen? Yes it's only under very specific conditions but that's not the point, it is extremely annoying watching movies when they fade to black, when in the app launcher under dark conditions. And it's not just 1 or 2 small dots it's like someone broke a black pen and flicked it all over the screen.

I've only had the phone a few days now so I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt since everything I've read is saying you get used to it but...... It's there..... There are dots on the screen every time there's black, how do you get used to that? I understand every AMOLED screen has it but don't you think that if it's that big a problem then the screens aren't ready for prime time and need to improved? I've found myself using white everywhere when black is what saves battery on an AMOLED screen and black looks good on an AMOLED screen but I can't stand the dots.

All ordered! Black Nokia Lumia 920 ($99) with Black wireless charging plate (free). Additional $25 off total order as well. All set to go.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Tempest790:
Just ordered two. My wife was eligible for an upgrade: $99 for the cyan Lumia 920 and a free black charging plate. My line wasn't eligible for an upgrade, but the price was only $449 for the no-commitment pricing if you do it with the online special! Went ahead and paid $49 for my own charging plate. That's definitely cheaper than the $599 Best Buy is charging. According to the information page, they should arrive Friday, Nov 9th via FedEx 2nd day, so let's hope AT&T stays on schedule. I'll have a new toy to play with all weekend.
[Nokia Lumia 920] psalmu:
$449 is not bad. I'd buy one if it had AWS 1700 and if there were a way to unlock it other than begging AT&T and waiting forever. Anybody know about those?
[Nokia Lumia 920] adiliyo:
to those that got the charging plate, did you have to add it to your cart or something or is it just included? i can't find it on the site, but i've already ordered my white 920...
[Nokia Lumia 920] Tempest790:
I've been reading comments on other sites about not seeing the charging plate. I tried finding it by completing a mock order on the regular AT&T site and the Premier AT&T site and it seems the charging plate is no longer listed as an option. Plus, you can't even find it to order it separately. Not sure what's going on with this. The free charging plate was for the black only. They had all Lumia colors (cyan, red, white, yellow, and black) listed for $49 for the charging plate and $69 for the charging stand (black only).

C'mon AT&T, you need to keep your customers up to date on what's going on. Furthermore, my order went through, then it said it was cancelled. I just got off the phone with them, and they said I have to bring two forms of ID to my nearest AT&T store to confirm the order. WTF is up with that? I NEVER had to do that before, and I've ordered phones for my account in the past with no problems both discounted and full price.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] yjbeach:
I have 2 Google accounts; one has business contacts (e-mail, infomration, etc) and the other is friends and family (all their info).

Is there a way to switch quickly between one account and the other. For example: During the day when working only my business contacts are loaded on the phone. During the weekends and evening only my friends and family are loaded on the phone.

I might not be explaining this correctly because searching various forums I have not found anything similar to what I'm asking. MY GSIII will be here next week. Time to replace the very first HTC Incredible. :) (It has been rooted and updated, however the charging port seems to be failing)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sheffy007:
Congratulations and welcome to the community!

To answer your question, yes. You'll need to add both your accounts and then in the contacts app, during the week, only display one account and then on the weekend, display the other account.
[Nook Color General] Cor-master:
Just grabbed one of these for my wife for christmas. She was wanting an eReader figured I could put cm7 on it and then she could have a choice of reader apps and have some tablet functionality as well.

Digging through stuff it seems alot of information is old so I don't really know where to begin. Do I need an sd card? Does it matter which size? Would greatly appreciate if someone could direct me in the right direction.
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
If you are wanting CM7, just follow eyeballer's guide, here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12797652

It is still applicable. And get CM7.2 stable from the Cyanogenmod site. And yes, you generally need an SD. A lot of apps expect one. Size just depends on how much stuff you want to store on it. Generally 4GB or larger is enough. With the price of SD's nowadays, I recommend getting as large as you can afford. You can never have too much SD space. And if you have any thoughts of maybe putting a ROM on it in the future, it needs to be a SanDisk Class 4.
[Nook Color General] Zen Monkey:
Let me know how you like it with CM on it, Cor-master. I've been thinking about getting one for my parents and rooting it since they're so cheap now and I get 20% off with my employee discount.
[Nook Color General] Cor-master:
Yeah the nook color is what got me interested in tablets in the first place. I thought the ipad was a dumb idea when it came out, then my friend showed off his rooted cm7 powered nook to me and I was in love lol
[Nook Color General] Cor-master:
So I'm assuming the sd card takes over and the internal storage is ignored?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Only if you choose too. If you install it to internal memory the SD is only used for media storage. If you choose to install the ROM to SD, then the internal ROM is not touched and is ignored on boot.

Those instructions I posted earlier is for installing to internal memory, overwriting the stock ROM.
[Nook Color General] Cor-master:
Cool that sounds good to me. I'm no noob to this stuff, my Nexus 7 is my 4th android device and I never leave them stock, but you know how it is, different on every single device. :)
[Nook Color General] Cor-master:
Alright one more question, I got it running cm10, if I want it to run cm7 instead how do I do that? Do I just use recovery, factory reset, flash cm7,and gapps? Or is their more to it?
