is there anything to speed up loading of pages when using the back button?
[Microsoft Surface] equisbox:
Helps a little, thanks. My Surface is still excessively slow on my bridged connection. Weird because my laptop works fine and it's connected to the same bridged router. No idea whats going on.
[Microsoft Surface] mattalter:
I heard that if you use the back button vs swiping the page reload issue is minimized. I understood it to be a bug in IE.
[Microsoft Surface] bnlf:
its actually the same except when u swipe the screen remains faded until it finishes downloading while pressing back doesnt.
[Microsoft Surface] xkawer:
I suggest about:tabs, which makes a nice speed dial page and is also offline for speed.

According to this, this only increases the number of simultaneous file downloads, maybe you should clarify that. The default for IE8 is 6, this should really be enough. Increasing this probably won't improve site loading times.

I'm running rooted stock Jelly Bean 4.1 on my T999 (T-Mobile) Galaxy S3

I was using some scripts on ICS (also stock) to allow for UMS so my radio could recognize my device. Otherwise, I can't play my music on my car radio via USB.

Since the JellyBean upgrade, these scripts no longer work. I was hoping someone else could help out? I'm using GScript to run these.

For UMS capability, I'm using the following script:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/enable

umount /mnt/extSdCard/

echo "mass_storage,adb" > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/functions

echo "/dev/block/vold/179:97" > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_mass_storage/lun_ex/file

echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/enable

This gives me an error:

stderr: sh: <stdin>[4]: Can't create /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/adroid0/f_mass_storage/lun_ex/file: No such file or directory.

To re-enable MTP, I use this script:

echo "" > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_mass_storage/lun_ex/file

echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/enable

echo "mtp,acm,adb" > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/functions

echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/enable

vold.

This gives me an error:

stderr: sh: <stdin>[1]: can't create /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_mass_storage/lun_ex/file: No such file or directory.

Any help to get UMS back up and running on JellyBean would be greatly appreciated!

Actually, I'm missing the entire lun_ex folder. Only lun. I tried to reroute the instructions to lun, but MTP keeps resetting.

could some1 explain me why both facebook app e mobile site look so ugly and differently than on phone?

even the new upgrade which should have share button: I can c it on phone but not on tablet
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonphinguyen7:
This is simply because Facebook has not optimized their app to be used on a larger interface.

The two options to circumvent this dilemna are as follows:

1) Download Friendcaster from the Play Store. It works well with tablets.

2) Go to Facebook.com and tap the ticker that allows for the full desktop version of the website to be shown.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rightofcenter77:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
It's funny, I've had Android tablets for so long I'm just used to the sometimes crappy app interfaces. Check this one out. ;)

Samsung used to include a Social Hub which, while not very pretty, was great for aggregating FB, Twitter, and LinkedIn together and getting one set of notifications and being able to interact your feeds in a single widget. It's missing from the Note for some reason (I'd pay a bounty to get it back. ;) )

The closest thing(s) I've found are an app called APW to manage Twitter and FB timelines and it comes with an excellent resizable widget. For LinkedIn I use Droidin Pro.
[LG Optimus Black] LGP970:
Is there any way to make the phone reboot itself from time to time (lets say once every 4 days or so)?

Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Not a good idea... Imagine it reboots during night and you had your alarm set... If it then doesnt ring,you ll have a problem. You can probably make a little script, that does that for you. It needs to read the date on the phone and a counter. Or maybe just a counter (e.g. hours) and then the command reboot recovery. But I cant write one :p
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
Run this shell script at boot

#!/system/bin/sh

sleep 345600
reboot

but like Nooby said not such a good idea. Why is it you want to reboot every four days? It can go off while you are in the middle of a phone call.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neXus PRIME:
Hi all,

As i see, DK is back and will be actively working on CM9 i think. So if you guys say, i could shift my rom to AOKP ics instead of cm9. The features i added in CM9 will be easy enough to add in aokp with time, Plus eternity kernel will also be same. As for existing usb tether and camera bugs, they will also be same and fixed with time.

Shall i go ahead or anyone actually does prefer cm9 over aokp??

Regards

Yasir
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostelo:
Definitely aokp for me. Way more customizable than cm9 and thus better IMHO.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAsko_san:
I'm also for the AOKP version :) have you looked trough that camera.cpp file that I've send you?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neXus PRIME:
Yes, but the Qiss team should release and give us the source tree. I mean if they share their git repo, i could easily add it to the rom and give them credits for fixing it. Other than that, i dont know how i can do it.

@ALL, NO POLLING HAPPENING !!! WTH???
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivan_dekov:
I prefer aokp :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neXus PRIME:
Good, I've made up my mind about it too.

Generally I'm seeing very low level of interest from users for ICS roms hence my motivation drops a bit. Maybe people leaving desire or maybe they don't want ICS rom.

I can also create aokp jb based on cron or spazedog repo if people want that.

Plus, I might just leave it all if its not worth the effort n time.

I Love ISC and down want to go back

I don't mind what base is used as long as it's stable (ROM and GPS) and working fast.

If enryption will work than is will be great.

The widgets for mail and calendar and other things in ICS are perfect and I will stay as long as possible with the Desire and ICS.

More and More apps are going to work only on ICS and higher so then people will go to ICS.

Keep up the good work, waiting for any new version from you.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Gads. I've waited 2 years to root my phone and the first ROM I flash toasts it. I downloaded the Skyraider Zeus 1.3 and everything looked fine. When it rebooted, though, I realized I'm not able to do anything.

I slide the lock to get into the phone and I'm greeted by a dialog about in-call volume. All I can do is hit the Silent button and it switches between that and bluetooth volume. I can't figure out how to get past it so I can actually do anything.

Ideas?

ETA: Now I'm really sick to my stomach. I decided to restore from backup. Neither one of the backups I made prior to flashing are working.

Error while restoring /data!

WTF? Now I'm dead in the water.

4pm Update: I figured I have a brick now so I wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache. Now I'm trying to re-install Skyraider. I'm not holding my breath.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
You're not bricked.

Go back into recovery...

Wipe data/factory reset 3x, wipe cache, and then wipe dalvik cache.

Flash the ROM.

You should be good.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Thanks. I did that and it worked. I guess I have to reinstall everything.

Why would two different backups fail to restore? The first I did manually last night through Titanium. The second I did when I flashed through ROM Manager.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Jedi:
That's your problem using rom manager. Download 4ext in the play store and you wont have backup issues.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Will do. What a debacle it started out to be. I think I'm ok now. I got the ROM working and for some reason although I wasn't able to boot into recovery and restore I have been able to restore my apps and data through Titanium. I have to say buying the Pro license was worth not having to acknowledge each install. :laugh:

One thing I noticed is that I used to be able to slide the task bar down and have two options. Initially it was set with notifications but I could select a tab to make quick selections like enable/disable the hotspot, etc. I'll have to figure out why I only see notifications now. Maybe that's just part of the ROM behavior.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
That's strange that you don't see the quick settings tab.

Usually after flashing a ROM through recovery, I flash it an extra time so that I know it gets all the files through.

I know when I flashed Gingeritis 3D, I couldn't get the music player to stop force closing when I changed the music sound effects. The only way to fix these issues and a few others was to flash it a couple more times, without wiping anything at all. Dirty flashes (not wiping) could possibly fix any issues as long as you haven't changed any of the ROMs settings or set up anything.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Ha! I was just trying to grab a screenshot and found Quick Settings. I accidentally tapped the top of the window and now I see it. However, it only lists Wi-Fi, BT, GPS, and media volume. I really hope I can figure out how to add the hotspot.

ETA: Found it in Skyraider settings! I'm getting closer to where I wanna be!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
To change those settings in that menu you would probably have to look in the skyraider settingsm
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
This is getting better. Now I'm posting from my netbook connected via WiFi tethering an not using the Verizon hotspot! This will save me another $30/mo.

So far this ROM seems to be much faster jumping between apps than stock. I'm going to play with it a few days and then throw caution to the wind and try the Skyraider ICS ROM. :silly:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Skyraider ics? I wasn't aware that they had an ics rom for the bolt.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
My bad. I followed it from the Skyraider download but it's the ICS leak for HTC.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
That rom blows. If you want a working decent sense 3.6 get nusense from the infectedrom forums.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Nusense is actually on my list. These are what I was initially looking at trying:

Liquid Smooth AOKP

SkyRaider Zeus 1.3

NuSense

I think I'm like most Tbolt users that are tired of waiting for ICS. I wasn't sure about Nusense because I was believing that Sense was the source of a lot of my problems. However, SkyRaider (even though it's neither ICS nor Sense-less) is running considerably better. My phone was next to useless. It might take 1-2 min just for the stupid thing to dial a # once it was selected. I'd tell people if I ever needed 911 I'd be dead before it even dialed. I also had a lot of problems with messaging and general performance. So maybe it was just a bloatware problem that was dragging me into the mud.

Now that I'm having a positive experience with SR I think I'm going to make NuSense my next one. It looks very promising. I appreciate the warning and help to steer me clear.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heath2805:
You should try Twisteds version of Liquid ICS AOSP . Only problem is Netflix and video can don't work. But other than that its a great rom --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33076925
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Thanks. I'll give it a shot. I don't use Netflix much from the phone so that's not a deal breaker.

How is it with data? I flashed NuSense yesterday morning and flashed back to SkyRaider last night. I couldn't stay connected. The data drops were horrible. It was odd. I'd have the 3G/4G icon like I was connected but couldn't surf/email/etc. Then other times I'd lose the 3G/4G altogether. Sometimes resetting the mobile data would work and other times it would just laugh at me.

I guess I didn't give it much of a chance since it only lasted <12 hours but it was driving me nuts. Nothing like spending time with family and not being able to surf and escape. :D
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Jedi:
Any liquid based ics rom is plagued with data drops.

I'm not getting them that bad. Maybe twice a day at best. Have you tried pulling your sim for a little bit.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Jedi:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
You don't get data drops on other builds? Have you checked the gold tabs under your battery door and bald sure they aren't damaged? Maybe check to see if they are making good contact too.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Ugh. That's not good. SkyRaider has been rock solid on data. The only thing I've really run into is it seems flashing my apps with app2zip only works on some things. I end up having to re-flash Kindle, Lookout, and a few other apps once I'm up and running again.

I was really looking forward to ICS but not if data drops are the norm. :(
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heath2805:
No drops here with .9 radio combo.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaxDroidGuy:
Hmm. I was on 19. Maybe I'll try it again.

Sent from my SkyRaider Thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Jedi:
I'm on the .9 radios and all my golden tabs look fine. I drove 40 miles with data dropped wanting to see if it was my area. Would not relock on data until I did airplane toggle. All other roms I have ran data has been solid. The drops are getting less with each new build he makes. I know Droid theory 2.8 gb aosp data is solid. So I know it has to deal with the hacked ril. Maybe my towers are running outdated software or something. Sure its many contributing factors at work here.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heath2805:
That's weird. I've been getting drops on any sense rom like crazy with .9 but not Twisteds builds. Damn Verizon!!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kayjay7:
Hello people,

This has without a doubt been asked before but I haven't been able to find an answer. My problem is this:

A while back I flashed the then latest available version of the MIUI.us ROM for my international SGS i9000. Everything went fine with the flashing; I had to flash the ROM four times in part due to the new CM10 partition layout. Since the flashing was done late at night, I turned my phone of and plugged in the charger for it to charge during the night. The next day when I tried booting it up, the phone never got beyond the kernel screen. I didn't pay to much attention to this since I already had been thinking about flashing the CM10 ROM anyway and this seemed like a good time to do so.

I saw no other solution to escape the bootloop but to go back to stock (2.3.3 for my region) and then root the phone again (CF's method) and proceed with flashing my ROM of choice. I did not use a PIT-file in going back to stock. I flashed stock using ODIN v1.7 (I think). My computer at the time was running 64-bit Windows 7. The stock ROM I used, I found on a stock ROM collection thread here on XDA since the stock ROM from sammobile.com only got stuck in bootloop already at the first boot up after the flash with ODIN was complete.

Next I flashed the M2-version of the CM10 ROM and everything went fine. Since my phone already had the new partition layout from previously having flashed the MIUI.us ROM, I only needed to flash the CM10 ROM once.

The CM10 ROM worked like a dream for about two weeks. I stayed on the M2 during this time. After two weeks though, my phone again got stuck in bootloop unable to get beyond the kernel screen. Again it had been turned off and plugged to the charger during the night preceding the bootloop; a thing very common in my use case.

In neither of the cases did I change anything about the ROM I flashed; no custom kernels, no custom modems, everything was as it came with the ROM.

My question then is this:

What do I have to do in order to avoid ending up in bootloop again?

My thought was that I should return to stock and do everything from scratch again but this time use a PIT-file in order to make things "the right way". The thing is that half the flash-guides say one should use a PIT-file and the other half advice you not use a PIT-file since this would increase the risk of bricking your phone. Is there any point in using a PIT-file when flashing the stock ROM since flashing the CM10 ROM would change the partition layout anyways?

Am I taking the wrong approach to this? I really liked CM10 and would like to try out the stable version.

Sorry for the very long post.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amerkiller1995:
The pit file contains information about the partition layout. When you go back to stock from JB, you should use it. Try again going to stock with pit file and then flashing cm9 and then cm10. This way is the safest.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kayjay7:
I just got to thinking. As you might have heard the CM-team changed the partition layout after a certain version of their CM10 release. When going from Stock to CM9 and then to CM10 is it all right if I flash the stable version of each release or should I go from Stock to CM9 to CM10 pre-partition layout change to CM10 post-partition layout change?

Also: should I prefer the Stock ROM found at sammobile.com or are the files found on this thread better?

Thanks in advance.
