[Nexus 10 General] wireroid:
Meh, the interface looks like a hideous combination of iOS and Holo to my eyes. And aside from Chrome, Firefox and Opera, all the other browsers are shells for the native rendering engine so performance should be exactly the same, whether it's Dolphin, Boat, Ocean, etc.
[Nexus 10 General] digitalrelic:
Nope, Dolphin with JetPack uses it's own rendering engine and Ocean seems to use the AOSP rendering engine. That's the reason that both of these browsers feel so much smoother than any of the other ones.
[Nexus 10 General] ShadowVlican:
Indeed, dolphin with jetpack does use its own rendering engine, that's why it scores super high on the html5test
[Nexus 10 General] snipestech:
Ocean works great but I like how it can be tweaked to give a full desktop experience.

I guess I will alternate between both for now.
[HTC Desire S] Sw1p3r:
Hi all,

Unlocked and installed CM10 ROM on my Desire S yesterday,all went well and its great having Jelly Bean on my phone. Few bugs here and there but nothing too serious. My problem is restoring my old text messages to the device. Before the installed i backed up my messages from within the Desire S stock messaging app. This created a folder on my SD Card with a file in it,after i unlocked my phone i was able to restore the messages from within the stock app.

After installing the CM10 ROM i cant restore from within the messaging app preinstalled or from any program(SMS Backup etc) in the app store. I take it the HTC stock messaging app can only restore the backup file it made. So is there any work around or are messages gone for good.

Thanks in advance.:confused:
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
You could restore the stock rom, flash SuperSu or superuser to get root access, and backup your messages with titanium backup (preferably xml), then restore cm10 backup and restore messages with titanium backup.

Quite time-consuming, but you would have your messages again.

Or maybe you could extract them straight out of the nandroid backup with titanium backup, but i don't know if that's possible.
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
A better bet - although it still involves restoring your old ROM - would be to use SMS Backup & Restore. I paid for the full version as I have it set to automatically backup all my text messages at 2am every day, sync the backup with my Dropbox account and keep 3 days of backups.
[HTC Desire S] Sw1p3r:
Yeah thought I'd have to install the old ROM bit of a pain,should of backed them up with a proper app first. Didn't backup the stock ROM take it I can find it somewhere if I decide to go that route..

New to all this,still getting my head around all the terminology. Live and learn. Thanks.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] swukjay:
I can take no credit for any of this,This is my first ever post of a ROM I have altered to suit my preferences ,This is a great ROM but I hate app2sd and prefer this method I use myself so I have decided to share it in the hope some of you may find this useful, I prefer NAND and as such storage space is always a issue so I modded this Rom slightly to suit my preferences, All I have done is mod the init.d as when installing standard and then flashing cronmod INT2EXT the phone gets stuck on boot screen and has boot loop due to mount conflicts between cronmod and other scripts in the init.d folder, also it becomes very very slow so I have ripped out the conflicting scripts and repacked the Rom, full credits and BIG THANKS to Mrevil.. Credits for groundwork: SecureCRT, wis1152, tytung, ankuch, rapmv78, boonbing, the CM and Evervolv team and Massive Thanks to XDA Senior Member croniccorey for the cronmod INT2EXT script and XDA for such a great community and excellent site.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS HAS ONLY BEEN TESTED ON 250MB NAND BASED INSTALLATION AND IS UNTESTED FOR ANY OTHER METHOD !.

YOU MUST REALLY HAVE A MINIMUM CLASS 8 SDCARD PARTITIONED TO EXT2/3/4 FILESYSTEM BUT BETTER WOULD BE CLASS 10 ;) OR IT WILL BE AS SLOW AS A DRUNKEN SLUG TRYING TO MAKE IT TO THE NEXT GARDEN :)

INSTRUCTIONS: Partition sdcard to desired size, I use clockwork and choose (2048) 2GB EXT WITH NO CACHE. then choose install zip from sdcard, flash ROM , reboot and hey presto enjoy system size of 2GB for apps with nice speed !

Big Thanks once again to everyone involved for allowing me to mod this Rom....peace out :)

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Gyebro:
I've just checked decompiling / compiling the SystemUI.apk (from the XXLSJ) and everything works well, with just a "standalone" apktool (1.5.0.5), on Windows 7.

Have you installed the frameworks?

Installing frameworks:

Command:

apktool if XXLSJ\framework-res.apk

Result:

I: Framework installed to: C:\Users\Gyebro\apktool\framework\1.apk

Command:

apktool if XXLSJ\twframework-res.apk

Result:

I: Framework installed to: C:\Users\Gyebro\apktool\framework\2.apk

Then testing decompile:

Command:

apktool d SystemUI.apk SystemUI_XXLSJ

Result:

I: Baksmaling...
I: Loading resource table...
I: Loaded.
I: Decoding AndroidManifest.xml with resources...

I: Loaded.
I: Decoding file-resources...
I: Decoding values */* XMLs...
I: Done.

Finally test-recompile also finishes without errors:

Command:

apktool b SystemUI_XXLSJ SystemUI_custom.apk

Result:

I: Checking whether sources has changed...
I: Smaling...
I: Checking whether resources has changed...
I: Building resources...

If you want to use APKMultiTool, then you either install frameworks first with running the apktool from command line, or install the frameworks by choosing the "decompile apk with dependencies" option. (But I recommend using the apktool if command)

You only need to install frameworks once. (They are stored in C:\Users\username\apktool\1.apk and 2.apk)

[HTC Amaze 4G] jay-pee:
I have been reading around the CM9 / CM10 threads trying to wrap my head around everything that's going on. I've heard that this maybe an issue regarding the interface that android is using for data, and I've seen rmnet_sdio0 being thrown around a lot in those threads.

Now I admit I don't 100% understand what's going on (probably less than 20% understand) but I was browsing around the github repo and noticed an interesting commit.

We do not need to define this

Like I said I could be completely confused, and would love to hear if I am, but unless this line was added back later it could be our culprit. I'm not 100% sure what it does but mobiledata.interfaces sounds important to me for data. =)

So could this be the reason we don't have data (on cm9 / cm10)?

EDITED TO ADD:

I would have posted this directly in the cm 9 / cm 10 thread's but I don't have a high enough post count. Hopefully it get's all the exposure it needs right here.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martix900:
Hi there,

I am an android application developer and I'd like to write an application, which is rooting the phone.

There was a time(Android 2.2 and older), when rooting was not really a big thing.

Changing the rwx permissions of two files by running two "chmod" terminal commands was enough on nearly every device to root them.

But then it went more difficult.

There may not be such a simple solution like above, but I keep hoping that it is still possible programmatically. Here is an idea:

We could use Assembler and native C to generate a Puffer overflow by calling a Unix system call like here(http://peterdn.com/post/e28098Hello-World!e28099-in-ARM-assembly.aspx).Then we could get some code, which would be able to change the file permissions coz it's running in Kernel mode, into the Kernel this way.

What do you think of my idea? Write it down! I don't expect code or does anybody here know a Linux kernel exploit ;)

But ideas where we have to look for those would be great.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] magirken:
Hi all, I'm hoping to tap into your superior knowledge here...

I'm currently running the AEON ROM and I am pleased with it so far, it's stable and responsive, but I was hoping for better battery life.

Anyway, now that I've been bitten by the custom ROM bug, I'm thinking of trying a JB ROM, but I have some questions.

I'm looking for a stable(obviously) ROM with working bluetooth and gps and good battery life. The gps is a must as my gf and I are into geocaching, but the BT won't be a deal breaker. Is JB really worth flashing?

Here's some ROM's I'm looking at:

Paranoid Android -- but I don't believe gps works with this ROM, I can't really determine that from the thread

Unofficial CM10

LiquidSmooth

SlimBean

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. And one last question: Is it necessary to flash ICS before going to a JB ROM or can I flash directly? I've searched for an answer to this and I can't seem to find a consensus.

Thanks ahead of time

P.S. If you think I'll be better off staying with a GB rom, I'll take recommendations for an AEON alternative.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Pony Express:
All the JB roms you mentioned are excellent, it always comes down to personal preference.

Perhaps more important is to be sure you understand the process of going from GB to JB. There are many threads on this subject and it will be more than worth your time to read up before jumping. :)

-I tried editing the status_bar.xml file and changing android:background="#ff000000" to android:background="#00000000". Result = blurry icons and text with partial transparent status bar

-I tried editing the status_bar.xml file and changing android:background="#ff000000" to android:background="@drawable/statusbar_background", and I put a transparent statusbar_background.png in drawable-hdpi folder. Result = blurry icons and text with partial transparent status bar.

-I tried editing the drawables.xml and insert <item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#00000000</item>. No results.

-I edited the StatusBarService.smali. I search for the line "invoke-direct/range {v0 .. v5}, Landroid/view/WindowManager$LayoutParams;-><init>(IIIII)V" and right above it is "const/4 v5, 0x2" I change this to "const/4 v5, -0x3".
