[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mfratto:
I have a question about USB cables, proprietary cables, and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. When I first got my phone, I tried charging it with the same cable I used for my Moto OG Droid and the Samsung wall wart. It took forever and after I swapped the cable, it charged quickly. Fine, I figured it was a bad cable and moved on.

A few days ago, I was using a retractable cable that shipped with a New Trent battery pack from my PC to the Nexus. I noticed under Settings->About Phone->Battery Status said "Charging (AC)" Weird because it was from my USB port, but I didn't give it much thought.

I just bought a USB A to a right angle USB micro B and I noticed when I plug it into my PC, the Settings->About Phone->Battery Status said "Charging (USB)". Same USB port, same PC, same configuration, but a different cable provides a different indicator.

Questions:

Is this likely to be merely a cosmetic different or is different wattage being supplied by different cables?

Will the (USB) indicator mean that the charge rate will be slower?

I want to use the right able cable when charging my phone in my messenger bag, but not if it's going to be slow.

Thanks.

Here are some 4.2 apps with transparent Widgets. That's what I use on my homescreens so I'm sharing :) I'll update more if possible.

Add .Bak to the end of your gmail and music2 apk in system/app, paste these and fix permissions then reboot! $$$$

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silentrath:
I picked up my N4 2 days ago at a local store, and I am in love with it however with the lack of accessories since its so new, is there a place I can order the genuine OEM bumper protectore that google play is selling? They are sold out online, just wondering if theres any other places that would carry it.

I also was wondering which screen protector should I use on this?

I am considering, Ghost Armor, XO Skin, or Spigen.

I am leaning towards Spigen, hwoever I have never used that before or XO skin.

Help me make a pick :)

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] artemis11:
Hi, I got an update (i think its 4.0.4) for my country and I couldn´t update it. I clicked on install but in recovery it was aborted. What is a reason?

I have clockworkmod + root. I tried some ROMs but i want to stay beside samsung fw.

Thx.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] InfinityFTW:
Hi.

I think you have to be on stock unrooted firmware with stock recovery, but i'm not sure.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] artemis11:
OK, i have backup of stock rom, but how i can delete custom recovery?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] InfinityFTW:
What device do you have?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] artemis11:
GT-P3110
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] InfinityFTW:
Then, the easiest way is to flash either RomsWell or Tab2Lite RC3. They are all stock JB ROMs :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] artemis11:
I would like to instal stock rom, is it possible to restore recovery? Now i have clockwork mod and because of it i cant update to 4.0.4 and then to 4.1.1.

Hi. I wondrer if you managed to fix your problem? I have the same situation and I'm looking for a way to fix it.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] DigitalMD:
Use ODIN to flash OEM firmware. Lots of tutorial information on this site. Please search.

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] JeramyEggs:
I don't care about the stock ROM, I just want to get rid of the update notification. Is there a build prop edit that will do it? If so, could someone explain how? This is how it was done on my old Dinc, so if there is a simpler way, let me know. Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] DigitalMD:
People need to be more clear , give more detail when you ask a question. You should not be getting update notices if you are not on the stock firmware. If you are on a custom ROM and still get notices, ask the OP developers of the ROM why.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] JeramyEggs:
Sorry, I am on stock firmware, rooted with CWM recovery. I rooted before I took the update. Now It nags me to update, but won't allow it. I will probably look for a stock 4.04 ROM, but was happy with it the way it is because it is for my 8 year old. I was in the same boat as the OP. Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] moyako:
Well, I have Root + CWM, I was wondering the same because I didn't want to try the update on my rooted P3113 to avoid any problem. Finally I decided to try it because the notification was getting me nuts. It downloaded the update, tried to install it and gave me an error message. Told me to try the installation manually with Kies and stopped appearing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] amebiasis:
Is there anyway to add documents straight to our home screen? Like a short cut? Currently I have to sort through root explorer, I haven't seen a way bit was wondering if there was a way to put it there like an apk. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cnorman76:
Root explorer will let you add folders to your home screen. Their is also some apps that let you do this. You will need to add a file folder on you SD card and than make a link to that folder. File Widget in the market is a free app if you don't have root explorer.

Good afternoon guys!

Well, since I bought my Galaxy Note with 2.3 ROM I face a problem with the rotation.

He turns to all sides normally, but when it is to return to the vertical it does not turn on any ROM I managed to make it work, I've done full wipe and everything, and nothing.

Can it be that problem? Calibration? Or manufacturing defect?

Thanks

Try reseting the Battery Stats from ClockWorkMod.

To do this -

Hold Power and Volume Down to enter 2ndInit.

Go to Recovery then Custom Recovery.

Go to Advanced and then Wipe Battery Stats.

[Nokia Lumia 920] Tuoni:
Hi there.

I've been looking for a new phone recently and the Nokia Lumia 920 has caught my attention to the point where I'm hopelessly in love with it. Currently there's a Developer Edition on eBay that I want to bid on but I'm not entirely sure what the implications of buying a Developer Edition will be. Can anyone elaborate what it will actually mean for me, the user of the phone? Are there any downsides, or is it exactly the same as the final edition?

Cheers.
[Nokia Lumia 920] EShy:
I'm using a dev edition. It's appears to be exactly the same as the Canadian version (unlocked pentaband phone). It didn't come with a charger or even a normal usb cable (they included a cable that was 5 cm length, weird) but other than that it's the same.

Because it's not a carrier specific phone, it doesn't have the settings for the carrier's APN preset, but you just go into the settings-Access Point to do that.

That also means you won't need to wait for any carrier to approve updates (I know that's supposed to be the case for everyone with WP8, but Microsoft said the same thing with WP7 and it didn't work out)

My Note 2 is the first phone I've had that will run an N64 game like Goldeneye, almost flawless. I don't know if it can do much more than that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dre89:
Although one day it might be possible due to the rate at which mobile cpu's and gpu's are advancing it'll still be a while before it'd be at a playable level.

But, assuming game companies suddenly grow logical brains the possibility of optimized ports for the extreme high end devices exists. It's not likely at all, but the xperia play wasn't likely either. And look how far things have come since april last year. The Note 2 is 10x as powerful as the play, and in just over a year something 10x as powerful will come along that dwarfs it in terms of power, maybe not size, but in power yes, and that would be when you'd start to see ps2 games become a very real possibility. You can expect Sony to tie it in with the ps4 and psvita though.

Assuming the world doesn't end though lol

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewdroid:
So my last Android phone the Samsung Captivate had USB Mass Storage support, and the phone would show up as a drive on Windows Explorer. This Nexus has only MTP and Photo transfer support.

Both seem to show up properly on my computer, however, when I try to transfer an entire folder to my computer (Titanium Backup), it will only transfer the folder and none of the contents. If I try to do a select all, it will only transfer one or two of the backup files in titanium backup. This is very annoying, what am I doing wrong? Is there a way to get USB Mass Storage support?

I am the proud owner of a new Nexus 10, and I thought I would carry out some browser benchmarks to see which browser worked best as the earlier bechmarks using Chrome were a little dissapointing...

The bechmarks are lower is better with the exception of V8

Sunspider, V8(higher is better), Kraken

Chrome (stock) 1365ms, 3023, 11222

QQ Browser 881ms, 4032, 10087

Boat Browser 886ms, 3614, 10213 (italia0101 posted 762ms for sunspider on his N10 and also has an interesting video embedded on page 3)

By comparison here are the Iphone 5 benchmarks

Safari 908ms, 1553, 19618

I don't know why anyone complains about Chrome. I use it exclusively on my S3 and N10 and it works great. There may be faster browsers but the syncing between all my devices and the ability to open any tab left open on any device on another device is absolutely priceless! My only complaint would be lack of Flash.

[Nexus 10 General] wurzelsepp3:
You can't blame them, this is Googles fault, they should have either drastically improved chrome or just use the AOSP browser as stock.
[Nexus 10 General] :
I wouldn't call it biased. They are just too lazy to try with other browsers.

I think that it's Google's fault (primarily). Chrome sucks, period. It's not ready yet. There are lots of browsers which are much faster than Chrome. Why did Google make Chrome the default browser when it is not ready yet? Many reviewers will simply not bother with non-default browsers. I think it should be a shame for google that other 3rd browsers are so much better than Chrome.

Seems pretty underwhelming as far as benchmark scores go but I'll have to see how I like it as I play with it more in a real world environment.

I'm sticking with Chrome right now unfortunately, just because the desktop to mobile sync is so damn useful to me. Firefox has this feature as well, but judging the benchmarks it doesn't perform any better than Chrome anyway.

It's a shame that Boat doesn't have a feature that allows you to sync with your Google/Chrome account.

It's the fastest without having to void your warranty, OC'ing the CPU and GPU, using RAM as a cache for the browser, moving system data to a faster-than-stock external SD card, and risking data corruption by disabling fsync in SQLite. Fair comparison? Hardly.
