how to get multi window option on galaxy S II?without root?running android 4.1.2 leaked firmwear
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
Not possible without rooting as you need to make change in the framework structure.

Need to be rooted to do that.

Philz kernal works with leaked 4.1.2 firmware and will root your phone, this is the only kernal that does that.

You can find the kernal in Orginisl development section.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalebima:
I was debating between the N10 and iPad for mostly reading pdf's and general schoolwork and decided to go with the N10. I've got to wait 'till I get home next week to use it but in the meantime I was wondering how pdf's look on 16:9 screen in both landscape and portrait.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beerope:
Get the iPad. Trust me, the Nexus 10 lags when you're reading PDF. I've tried most apps and the Nexus 10 runs like a dog on them. Except for mantano but in mantano there are several PDFs that could not be read. It just doesn't display anything I'm portrait, landscapes fine though, weird bug. I got the nexus 10 to read magazines on it and seriously, I am disappointed. Get the iPad if you wanna buy a tablet to read PDFs they've got better app support.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hinxman:
If you're set on a N10, i'd say give it a bit of time, the device is fairly new, so it can take Devs some time to update apps and get the bugs worked out of them. Personally, i'm looking at one for close to the same usage requirements, and still plan on getting one, even knowing that it may take a bit for the apps to catch up with the device.

PDF reading is damn good. I'm using the Adobe Reader app and it scrolls a 1322 page PDF just fine.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KestrelX:
No problems with PDFs using moon reader pro. Can't really offer a comparison with ipad though.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalebima:
Is viewing PDFs in portrait mode an issue? For most of my PDF readings the "page" is actually two pages of a book scanned and made into one PDF page. Would I be able to zoom in on one column w/o issue or display the page entirely in landscape? Do you guys tend to hold your N10 when reading PDFs or use a stand?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beerope:
Weird...Moon Reader and Adobe Reader has finger lags on my N10, even EZpdf lags...
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404 ERROR:
The way to view one pages with 2 pages is to flip it to portrait mode and then flip it to landscape mode without activating auto-rotation. You will swipe left to right in this case.

Either it's different sensitivity to issues or there might be something wrong. I just flung my finger across the screen and it just zoomed through. Images and stuff will load a bit later, but once the the app makes a cache, it doesn't take time to load them up anymore (so it's already there and ready to view).
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalingrin:
This. I've never had any lag on adobe reader even with large PDFs.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indianajonze:
i don't know what the hell you're talking about. nexus 10 with adobe reader will read any pdf you throw at it just fine with no lag. lag in a pdf is just all kinds of fail and i'd say you have something very seriously wrong with something. but it's not the nexus 10's fault...
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] globen:
I can attest to the fact that ez pdf reader lags like hell on this device. I dont know if its software or hardware?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
Anyone who suffers from lag with Adobe Reader; force GPU acceleration from Android's Developer Settings (a guide to enable such settings is somewhere on xda-developers); should make things a lot better :)

While it doesn't seem to cause issues for most, it can cause some apps to act strangely, and/or crash. If you experience any issues, try disabling the setting first.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensamic:
I don't see lag, but the nexus aspect ratio is not ideal for reading PDF.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RawBott Bigg:
I've had the Nexus 10 for about a week now and I got it for the sole purpose of reading books and PDF files. I'm a full-time student so reading my assignments on my tablet is an absolute most. My wife has the iPad 3 and she as well is a full-time student. Now, for comparison sake the iPad 3 in my opinion is way better for downloading and reading PDF files through their built in iBook. It's built to work flawlessly with anything you throw at it. I love the way it saves my PDF files on iBook as if I bought it from the App Store. On the Nexus 10 defense, Google books and Google magazines are not built as smooth as iOS's iBook. I'm not talking about buying books or magazines from the Play Store or App Store and reading through those apps, I'm simply speaking about downloading here. I'm sure one day Google will add whatever feature Apple is using to their apps. Now, I use Dropbox to store my books and PDF files then download them to my Nexus 10. Here is my experience with Paid apps only excluding the Adobe Reader which is free.

Adobe Reader - great app for PDF reading. beautiful performance with zero to no lag. Only problem, it didn't display a few pages at all.

Aldiko Book Reader - Too slow for my liking. Not fully updated to take advantage of the Nexus 10 (the best app if you want the closes resemblance to Apple's iBook)

Moon+ Reader - Again, too slow for me. I prefer Aldiko to be honest.

ezPDF Reader PDF Annotate Form (THE BEST PDF APP FOR THE NEXUS 10 PERIOD!!!) This app is definitely utilizing the Nexus 10 power to the max. No hiccups and zero lag. I highly recommend this app to anyone who wants to read their downloaded PDF files. (I have not tested this yet with books downloaded from Dropbox, just PDF files. Before I forget, reading in Landscape mode will make you scroll but if you read in Portrait mode, it will be like reading from an actual magazine. Also, in settings, you have the option to turn pages much quicker as well. I switched mine from 1.5x to 3x.

I hope this helps anyone who are having a hard time finding a good app to display their PDF files with the same performance as iOS iBook. If you have any questions or want me to test anything before you purchase this app or Nexus 10, just let me know.

here is the link to Google Play Store for the best PDF app I found on the market.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalebima:
Hi Rawbot, thanks for your response! We're in exactly the same situation - I'm buying this almost solely to read PDF files and don't really care how well it performs for gaming or anything else. Could you tell me how you like the aspect ratio of the Nexus 10 versus the iPad 3 for reading pdfs? Especially when it comes to scanned book pages (i.e two book pages in one pdf "page"). Which do you prefer? Landscape or portrait?

Thanks! I already ordered the N10 but I can't test it out till I'm home on next week, I wish I could just load up a pdf on the darn thing myself but alas!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prophet1000:
Check out ezPDFReader. It's probably one of the best. It has lots of functions and is very well supported with frequent updates.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aritrea:
Is there a way to enable infinite scrolling in ezpdf like nearly any other PDF reader does? I really hate this 1 page per scroll gesture.. Feels so choppy compared to the fluency of adobe..
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RawBott Bigg:
In answer to your question, I prefer the Nexus 10 ratio over the iPad. Then again, many may prefer the iPad's ratio for reading. All I can say is when you get your Nexus 10 next week give it a try. Download the App I suggested and see how you like the ratio.

Here are two pictures I took of the iPad 3 and the Nexus 10 side by side with the same PDF file I downloaded from my Dropbox account. This will give you an idea of how your PDF will look like on each device. (PDF files are open in iBook and ezPDF Reader PDF Annotate Form) Screen brightness: 100% As you can see by the picture, iBook crops the PDF file to fit the 4:3 ratio, while the Nexus fits it perfectly. I actually like that for some strange reason. lol It looks like it was designed for the Nexus 10. Also, the black colors on the Nexus 10 look a bit better. You have to look hard to notice it but it's there.

ezPDF Reader PDF Annotate Form also has the option you asked which is reading two pages in one PDF page form. It is not enable by default but you can go to settings and enable the feature there. I prefer portrait for one page viewing only because landscape with one page means scrolling and for two pages means a bit of zooming but not by a lot. If you need pictures of that too let me know.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RawBott Bigg:
I've looked through the settings to find your answer but I'm afraid I didn't find infinite scrolling. The most I came close to finding was scrolling speed for turning page which by default is on 1.5x. You can change that to 3.0x and it should be faster. Also, the free version was choppy like you mentioned but not the paid version. You can try it for 15 minutes and if you don't like it you can get a refund.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackforce:
I've tried like... all the pdf readers out there and all were lagging with any kind of pdf, i really don't know what these people are talking about... Since i got the nexus for reading a lot of pdfs I was really disapointed, then i found mantano reader by accident it's in fact an ebook reader but it also reads pdfs with unmatched fluency ! I'll howerver try to enable h/accel to see how adobe's perform.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billykxda:
Not an N7 owner yet - it's on my xMas list. Santa's gotta come through for me. :)

As a GNex owner, rooting my phone was a no-brainer. I got sick of VZW's bloatware and VZW is miserably slow on pushing out updates. I am not a crack-flasher - I am happy to stay with a specific ROM/kernel that works.

I was wondering if most N7 owners had the same sentiment as most of us GNex'ers - stock is just not acceptable - gotta root.

Or, is stock somehow more acceptable on the N7?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steveletack:
The Stock Rom on the N7 is good but I rooted mine because i use some apps that need root and i use a custom kernel. I think it's not necessary but if you don't use Google+ Currents and so on, you can save some space by deleting them with root. But why don't you wait for yours and see if you like it or not ? :) Rooting is very easy so there should be no problem in doing it :D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxjivi05:
Root, allows you to use OTG to store huge apps on Flash drive instead of eating so pace and backup with titanium backup!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fushla:
I stayed stock. It's perfect for my use, and it replaces my laptop, so: no data loss allowed, no sod's, and no screwed flashing which requires a full wipe... I don't want to do the same as on my gnex ^^ at least one device that runs normal ^^

Like I said, stock is very nice, even though 4.2 made it a bit different. ( others report, got mine for a few days)

Battery life is nice, performance is awesome (sometimes I just open and close the drawer, open apps and close them, just to see how beautiful the transitions are :D) and I have nothing to nag on... I recommend you to try stock for a few days and decide yourself if you need root, or a custom kernel etc. ^^

And if you say you want to root for like 50%, then I would unlock the bootloader before setting everything up :P
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schism70:
I've rooted every single Android phone that I've owned. With that said, I have felt no need to root my Nexus7 and I've had it since July. OTG can be used as read-only with an app, no root required.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billykxda:
Thanks for the feedback so far. I figured that the stock/root decision is a personal one that a person makes after they try out the N7, but still it's interesting to see what decisions you folks make, and why.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidCarter93:
I'm in a similar situation as I'll be getting mine in a few days.

All I plan on doing is rooting right away, just so I can get rid of some of the bloatware, and then I've always got the option to chuck on a custom ROM/kernel if I don't like the stock feeling of it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billykxda:
Thanks again for the input!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jessicahll:
I've rooted but am otherwise on stock. I had game progress and stiff that I wanted to port over. I don't plan on flashing a custom ROM. I really like the stock JB, so for now I'm perfectly happy running rooted stock.

When you get them it'll take about half an hour to fix it.

Nobody will notice unless there's damage to the LCD.

If it has we'll have to change it too.

Ok so I have managed to remove the broken screen, it was actually fairly easy my only concern is the part show at the 7:00 minute mark of the video below, was broken when I removed it. The copper tape strip (or whatever it is) is still in tact. Where can I purchase this part? I still have all the pieces and if worst comes to worst I will attempt to very carefully assemble the phone with the broken parts to see if the phone still functions. I'm assuming this is part of what operates the home, search, back and menu buttons.

I have already removed the glue and am going to pick up a new screen from London shortly. I had some adhesive remover and work in a glass shop so I have all the tools and cleaners to ensure my new screen sticks and fits nicely.

After reading the thread you linked I am wondering if the screen they sell in London will will include the outside casing, this would solve all of my problems. I guess I will know soon enough, heading to London now. I will let you guys know how I made out.

[LG Optimus 3D] boltthrower56:
You can make do without a front case if you know what you're doing. I lacked equipment so i used alternative methods like shoe glue or blowdryer (which killed the original digitizer)...

No matter what you do they'll recognize if you don't buy it with a front casing though... (Already glued preferably)

I found it in turkey so i don't think you can't find it in london , resources are vast there...

Look around.

Remove the digitizer and check the lcd before heading to london if need be buy it as well.

If you need help you know where to find me...

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
Ok so I got the new screen installed and everything is working great. I purchased some 3m adhesive at the repair shop which made for a very clean replacement after removing all the old glue with some adhesive remover. Decided to grab a LCD for my brothers LG970 while I was there and repaired it as well.

New phone arrived yesterday evening, so I will be sending this one back this afternoon. The screen replacement is very clean so I'm not concerned about that but I did manage to lose the little speaker cover from the front of the phone, I just plan on telling Rogers it fell of at some point if they ask about it. Considering the phone is in working order with no physical damage besides wear and tear I don't expect an issue from Rogers.

By the way anyone want to purchase the brand new Optimus3d Rogers sent me? Not even taking this one out of the box, selling it and getting the as far away from LG phones as I can.

Thanks for all the help guys.
[LG Optimus 3D] boltthrower56:
I could think about buying it but you need to disassemble it and wrap the parts good.

In Turkey it's illegal to buy phones from foreign countries but it's not if you buy not working parts.

So in short i'm gonna con them into thinking it's for parts if you're up to it. PM me the price in your head.

I finally got my PC to recognize my phone through the PTP since it will never seem to recognize it through the BS MTP.

So I'm loading pictures for a customer from my phone through the PC when suddenly the damn Missing Hardware ID pops up in the middle of loading pictures after about 3-4 minutes.

What the hell is up with this crap?? This is absolutely ridiculous.

This is an expensive phone, why does it have so many cheap configurations???? Is there nothing that can be loaded to get past all of these problems??

Hardware ID Missing is the biggest, but I still am P.O'd about not being able to view my pictures through my PC without having to load them somewhere else first.

Im somewhat tech savvy but im kinda stumped on this whole aosp thing. Im trying to use juice defender to save extra battery life but some of the better features are disabled because it says aosp isn't available. I'm currently running the I777 aokp rom and the siyah kernal but I don't know how to enable aosp, if its even available. I thought aokp was one of the better roms out there and I remember way back when aokp was pretty newish on the I777, it still had these features available, so im just wondering whatsup.

Thnx folks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] crossmission:
Aosp is the stock android created by google, if you have seen cyanogen roms then you have seen aosp, of course cyanogenmod merges "his" own tweaks and features to improve stock aosp, now aokp is aosp plus cyanogenmod plus other features from other developers plus plus plus. Things are not EXACTLY as I explained but I'm trying to keep it simple, so, to answer your question, the aokp rom you're using is actually a heavily tweaked aosp rom. Get it? ;)

Don't use juice defender. It does not work for ****
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aspen1135:
Ok so then why do these features not work if ours are heavily tweaked. If anything it should allow us to do so right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mattdm:
You don't really understand what you're asking. AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project, and it is the method by which Google makes the latest vanilla Android source code available to developers. AOKP is based on code taken from AOSP. What "features" are you asking about?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nh5:
Considering you are aware it is already tweaked, why do you want to install JuiceDefender so all it can do is consume more battery? None of those battery saving apps help they only consume more to run. Their only features are disabling the sync, data, wifi, bt. All features you can already disable easy enough when you are not using.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Juice defender worked well on gingerbread and earlier versions of android. It's not really needed any longer as the android system has come a long way in power savings and reliability.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aspen1135:
Juice defender actually has some nice features like auto disable Wi-Fi based on GPS location, auto disable gps when not in use, and auto switch network modes based on coverage. I had it setup before so when I was home, wireless would stay on (for downloads and updates) and I usually had it plugged in at home so it wasn't a problem. I could leave my house without worrying about toggling Wi-Fi or GPS for draining additional battery and could come home to have it automatically on. Switching networks based on coverage not only improved battery life but also improved my data performance, as it cuts in and out a lot on the poor 4g coverage in my city so far. Can you guys answer my question a little more directly? If this aokp Rom isn't compatible, which Rom is most similar, with these capabilitys?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aspen1135:
I looked in the i777 index and under 'aosp roms' I saw cm9. Not cm10 but cm9. I'm going to give it a try and see if these extra features work.
