[General Questions and Answers] Fitbafanatic:
Last time i ever rooted a mobile it was my old Htc desire a few years ago now, i have had my samsung s3 for over 3 months but after updating to Jellybean i have had a few errors coming up, main one was touchwiz failed and also failed to update even though i am running Jellybean. I think the failed to update is to do with logs on my Mobile or something like that. I fixed the touch wix problem by installing nova launcher as well but just fancy Rooting it Now.

I have Vodafone contract running 4.1.1 (JB) and the model number is GT-I9300

I have been through the threads but there is that many different s3 info i was wanting to make sure i follow the correct thread, would also like reccomendations on which ROM to use and if you can duel boot it with 2 different rom options as well.

Thanks for reading and hope i have posted in the correct thread :)
[General Questions and Answers] hoekzemaar:
I am pretty new to it but the S3 is the easiest phone ever to root. Just head over to the I9300 forum and look for CFRoot 6.4 and use Odin to flash that. Took me about 5 minutes.

I am running Siyah Kernel which allows me to dual boot CRDroid rom and Cm10.
[General Questions and Answers] mortalcombatxxx:
CF-Root or CF-Auto-Root?
[General Questions and Answers] hoekzemaar:
This is the one I used http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695238

Though if you read the top of that it appears to have been replaced by auto root. So I would go for the latter.
[General Questions and Answers] flamus:
CF-Root is used for installing Custom ROMS.

CF-Auto-Root is for stock ROMs and installing SuperSU (gaining root) ONLY.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicriggs:
Alright guys I am switching from Verizon to a prepaid GSM ... I have been with Verizon for a long time and Im wanting to get the N4. Im needing to know what is the best prepaid GSM carrier out there. Where I live ATT has the better coverage over Tmo. So with that said, leaning toward an ATT network branded carrier. Such as straight talk...will I be getting HSPA+ with straight talk or just 3G?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alnova1:
HSPA+ also
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicriggs:
Great! thanks for the reply, so it looks like I'll be getting all the stuff that the big carriers offer (ATT) but be paying less..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertana:
Just be aware that without LTE, you will only be getting 21Mbps on AT&T. Tmobile provides 42Mbps where coverage allows. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm a current Verizon customer who will also be switching.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicriggs:
Speaking of HSPA+ im on the website of Straight Talk and it has the option to choose an unlocked sim that runs off 850 and 1900....or i can buy the ATT or Tmo exclusive....Which one should i pick? Im wanting 3G and 4G (hspa+) if possible. And i have been searching online to see what the frequency is for HSPA+ no luck...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakejm79:
They only offer two (well 4 since each comes in two sizes) SIMs.

The T-Mobile version which will work on any unlocked phone or T-Mobile phone and run off T-Mobile Towers; or

AT&T which will work on any unlocked phone or AT&T phone and run on AT&T towers.

If you choice the unlocked device option it will pick the AT&T or T-Mobile SIM based solely on which offers better coverage in your zip code.

I picked AT&T since despite there HSPA+ having half the theoretical throughput of T-Mobile, T-Mobile's availability of HSPA+ in my area is very poor.

The phone determines the frequency that it can run on, not the SIM card, so running an unlocked AT&T phone with a T-Mobile SIM (and vice-versa) can lead you to not get all speeds available on the network. Since the Nexus 4 is compatible with all frequencies your choice is down to who offers the best coverage/speed in your area.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicriggs:
Thank you so much for the reply you given me the answer I was looking for. It seems as though what sim card i want to purchase is the ATT one. Cause ATT in my area is much better than TMO. And if i pick the ATT i will get the 3G and 4G (HSPA+) thanks again.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bphillips35131:
Hey guys, I flashed Codename Android (3.8) on my Verizon GNex, and after it came back up, I could get 3g but no 4g signal. I used teamwin to flash, and did all 6 wipes ( dalvic, cache, system, battery, rotation, and factory reset). Had been using Aokp milestone 1 and I had 4g. After trying to figure it out, I did all the wipes again and reinstalled Aokp. After it boots up, I still can't get 4g. 3g is fine, but no 4g. I think I went through all the settings, is there something I could have missed?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haints:
Can only roms change DPI, or can this be done through the kernel as well?

Does increasing DPI make for a slower rom? Seems to be that increasing resolution would put more strain on the CPU/chip ... no?

Which DPI increasing rom would you recommend?

All responses appreciated!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Dpi is changed by editing the build. Prop file which is basically an ini file. It doesn't make any impact on rom speed, but some roms such as ics stock do not support <213 (tablet mode). It has nothing to do with kernel. You need to be rooted to adjust build. Prop.

If you're on stock, try 240 to start, quite nice. There are some Touchwizz apps that need adjusting for lower dpi such as dialler and launcher pages.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haints:
I'm currently on stock ICS, rooted, running speedmod kernel. I'll look into editing the Prop file. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
It's in root/system

Save a backup just in case, use root explorer
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haints:
Well I took the lazy way and downloaded a DPI changer from the market, and ... it froze my phone at the loading screen. Nice. Had to revert to nandroid backup.

Any idea why changing DPI would freeze my phone?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
What did you change it to?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
Rom Toolbox is the only app for changing DPI successfully. All others will leave you in bootloops.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrrtys:
I think it's best you edit the file yourself and not an app... It happened to mee too a few times while using an app. Never had a freeze by editing the file it self.

but the market do give problems for me... can't download lots of apps or updates. If something know a way to fix it for good pls say so... couldn't find something that worked for me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haints:
240. But from reading this thread and others I see that using DPI changers from the market is a bad idea. Lots of boot loops. Why the hell they would have the apks on the market in the first place if they don't work (and could lock your phone if you have no backup) is a mystery to me.

Oh well. I will take your advice and the advice of many here and try it manually.

EDIT: Okay. Used Root Explorer and changed DPI to 240 myself. Booted fine. But I can't really say I can see that much of a difference ... think I'll try going just a bit lower.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kopitalk:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] PurpleFries:
Hey guys.

I've been on CM10 for most of my time with my One X, and since the fix was implemented ages back, I have never had any problems with LTE sticking. However, on anything that is based on AOKP, my phone always defaults to WCDMA preferred on reboot.

I thought that all of these fixes are merged up to the different versions, and it's been a good 2 months since the fix.

Any advice past doing the old flash a 4.0.3 sense rom before flashing an AOSP to get LTE to stick?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deus_eps_machina:

Hi,

I'm looking to try out a Note. But want to know if there is a feature in some kernel or flashable zip of some kind to achieve this. I searched around but got mixed results so I'm not certain. thank you in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] iStatiK:
I remember having that option on my Vivid. However, I do believe that is an HTC/Sense option. Someone correct me?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] digitalcrash:
Its an option on the s2 with a kernel supporting extweaks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] iStatiK:
That probably means we need a Siyah kernel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ElectroBeijing:
Whoa, funny to see 2 other people switching from a Vivid to a Note!

This is something I'd been looking for a while as well, never found anything. It was such a nice way to turn on/off my screen, made the button seem ancient and obsolete.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamming_sammy1:
well, not just a note but just something a bit bigger than the vivid, i'm even considering the GS3 as well. but the thing is, I dock my phone onto my car's instrumentation panel and it seems to work well but there's no way i can get to the vivid's power button, and even the samsung lines would be difficult to get to as the power button is on the side; i hope someone can make something like this for the samsung lines.

thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamming_sammy1:
It doesn't really need to be 'swept' to wake. all I want is something that I can touch (or hold) on the front screen or bottoms to wake this thing up. anything? if not, I think what I'll do is go for the international version which, its middle button wakes the note up.

thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
you can flash a cm based rom and set device to stay awake while charging. you can also set to wake with volume keys. unless you mount phone with both sides blocked. i personaly set to stay awake and have modified my sunglass holder to hold phone. sits just above rear view mirror and works great even though power button is down and cant be pressed. if you want to stay with touchwiz screen times out at 10 minutes and no option to stay awake. however if you have sqlite editor you can change the database to stay awake but i have had issues with this not wanting to stick after reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] melcali:
so you want to wake/unlock the device without using any hardware buttons?

i use lightlock or proximity screen off/on from the play store. it uses the front sensors to wake/unlock or sleep.

i set lightlock to just 1 sec so all i have to do is put my hand/finger over the front sensor then my note wakes up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
Does this mean it wakes up in your pocket?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] melcali:
no. it will only wake if it senses a proximity change

so if you use lightlock and just cover the sensor, nothing will happen. if you cover the sensor for a set period that you choose and then remove your hand, then your device will wake.

you should try it out. it makes using your phone feel futuristic. impresses a lot of people especially when you show somebody with an iphone lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamming_sammy1:
thank you so much! I will check this out. this will work great. yeah i can now go look for a Note!!

and don't need to look for the international one, which seems to be more expensive.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] nilsping:
Hello,

I downloaded and successfully flashed a CM9_ICS_HWA rom for my HTC HD2.

Amazing rom, with dorimanx kernel OC limit 1,6 GHz.

Whatever,

Problem is, the camera, the " take a shot button " is invisible, im sure that camera apk is buggy,

Any one know a good camera, just a camera without bugs thats all..

Thanks
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Nigeldg:
In terms of cameras, just search for one on the Play store. There should be thousands. However, can you please link to the ROM you used? AFAIK none of the current ICS ROMs have this issue, so you might have an outdated ROM. I also don't know whether Dorimanx ever released a full HWA kernel compatible with ICS, so please check that you've got the right one installed.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] nilsping:
Heres the link

Of Course !

Heres the link, https://hotfile.com/dl/154260062/c44c7cd/cm9_htcleo_hwa_beta1.zip.html?lang=de to the rom.

OK

Well, i thought i found the perfect one, lol, thanks for the information,

And which ICS Rom do you suggesst? Ive tried nexusHD i didnt like it because its internal storage was very low, i think its just on my phone so,

Is nexusHD2 the best ICS for HD2 out there?

i think i will have to look out for some new roms..
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Nigeldg:
I personally use NexusHD2, but I'm going to change soon to a JB ROM (hopefully). For internal storage you can just flash an A2SD script or install Link2SD. However, I would encourage you to try ROMs yourself and find the best one for you. What works for one person doesn't necessarily work for another person.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] nilsping:
JB Rom

-The source code for 4.2 is being pushed to AOSP right now. Look for

it under the name "android-4.2_r1" once the replication completes. The

matching development branch (for CTS contributions) is jb-mr1-dev, and

all the changes are merged into the master branch where platform

contributions are accepted.

Nexus S didnt support 4.2 no more...android is opensource and it will always be published!! ;)

i am trying to root and put jellybean on my My-touch 4g. i know all the processes and i have gone through a great deal of time reading and watching videos. the first thing i was supposed to do was to downgrade my My-touch 4g to 2.2.1 since you can't root the version 2.3.4. well i downloaded the files necessary and put them on the root of the SD card and booted into H Boot.

so my problem is that the H Boot doesn't recognized the PD15IMG.zip ( hence me not being able to do anything). please help ....

i was also wondering if i could flash a Custom Rom through recovery without having to root or downgrade?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If the HBOOT doesn't recognize your PD15IMG, you might be either naming it wrongly or using an unrecognized SD card.

Grab another SD card or reformat yours, and try again. And again. And next time please use search for questions that have been already asked zillion times.

And if there was a simpler way, tell me, do you think that people would use more complicated ways for 2 years now?? Some basic logic.
