[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Divine_Madcat:
This.. I have the 32gb, and while the wife and I may never have to use it all, it is nice knowing its there.

That said, given that you can use USB storage without rooting (read only of course), you can probably get away with 16gb and a $1 otg cable for your favorite thumb drive (this will work great for movies or music on a long trip, where you want lots of stuff you won't need saved on the device itself.)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac of York:
My thing is that my phone has tons of storage and I won't need my Nexus to have everything on it. It really matters on what you plan to put on it, really. My phone holds my music and has great audio capabilities... I don't mind only having a few videos on my tablet and having the rest on my flash drive or phone. It really is up to personal preference.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaybs:
I got the 32 gb storage and it is far too big. Ive used like a quarter of available storage and have all sorts of apps and movies loaded. I guess my philosophy when buying it was that more never hurts, especially when its only 50 bucks difference
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] candyeve:
With my 32 I love the feeling of never having to worry if I have enough space. For the little bit of extra money I think it's totally worth it
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I Am Marino:
I got the 16GB and it's more than enough if you're not trying to smash HD movies on it.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worldwidepmp:
I have a 16GB and it's more than enough for me. I game some but I read more ebooks or watch Netflix more than anything now. I'm just not the power user I used to be.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldcupsniper:
Know Thyself

If you have the extra coin, it never hurts.

Consider though, that with a few choice purchases, you can remotely access shared hard drives and stream content over your home network. Having access to several TBs of data on multiple devices made the extra 16GB on the device feel unnecessary for us, so we opted to save the cash for later.

If you feel the need for 32GB of content, feed the need. Last thing you want to feel about a gadget purchase is that you cheated yourself.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H_O_N_D_A:
It all depends on your needs. Before i bought my 16GB Nexus 7 i thought i needed the 32GB but it wasn't available. After a week of using it i find 16GB to be just enough for now and i tend to store a lot of things and nandroid backups and roms, but as soon as i'll start to pus some music on it and 1-2 big games it will be full. You can allways use a usb otg with a memory stick if you have a large music collection or want to view some movies. If you got the cash and plan on keeping the Nexus 7 for more then one year i think the 32GB would be the safer bet.

I have successfully unlocked my bootloader and gained permanent root access to my HTC One X. I am preparing to flash a rom for the first time. Official cm10 version. I'm following the directions I have a link to from this post. Before I begin I hae one question. It shows opening android sdk file where I will finf adb files and fastboot, which from what I gather is where I will flash the boot.img first before flashing the rom zip. However, when I looked for those files and open X_Factor_Windows.... That is where I find the adb and fastboot files. Is that where I can proceed from? Thanks for the help. Also, as you can probably tell I'm scared to death to attempt this but I am very capable of following directions. If I don't make any mistakes is there any reason that I should not reboot into a new rom?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tyessen:
don't worry, i felt the exact same when i flashed my first rom a week ago :)

yes, perform the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" from the fastboot/XFactor folder with the boot.img from the cm10.zip copied to the fastboot/XFactor folder. then proceed to recovery and flash the cm10.zip + superSU + Gapps :)

When restoring a backup from ics to jb or from jb to ics through cwm recovery, should I wipe cache/dalvik or factory in between, or does the back up overwrite things in a manner maikng it unnecessary?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
I think you should always wipe cache and dalvik. It will not hurt anything and can only prevent problems.

When you are switching from JB to ICS you may also need to wipe data (unless you are restoring data that was backed up with ICS).

The backup will only wipe/restore what was included in the backup.

How can I get default out of the box kindle fire?

Ok well I will try this... but how can I get back to out of the box kindle fire?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Connect it to the pc, enter recovery, select mount make sure there are no checks in the boxes of system or data if so uncheck them, hit the big mount button hopefully the sdcard contents will pop up on your computer screen. Transfer this rom to the sdcard http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1439916 not the altrom version that is for dual booting. When finished with the transfer of the rom zip select unmount, then unplug, wipe factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe system, select install, flash rom zip then select reboot and system if prompted. Pm me if you have difficulty and I will help assist you if more is neccessary. Good luck.

Help with rom

well i did what you said about downlooading that rom now i go on TWRP but i cant find it. im stuck
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
You downloaded it to your kindle or you transferred using mount? If you downloaded it to your kindle it will be located in your download folder if you transferred it then you will need to use twrp to locate where you transferred it to. The . And the .. or up one level allows you to navigate your sdcard contents depending on your version of twrp. External storage is your sdcard so you don't want to wipe this or it will also wipe everything that have moved there.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Camiethecableguy:
back to defualt

hey so i got the rom on there like u showed me. now i want to get my kindle back to default. like no twrp no nothing. i want it just like when i took it out of the box. just EVERYTHING normall amazon OS.. no root stuff
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
I do not recommend it. If you make mistake you will brick it. You can use kfu option 6 for extras obtain latest update.zip then transfer this to your sdcard do a full wipe and flash it in twrp just don't wipe your sdcard. I still don't recommend it. KFU will download it and extract it do not use the extracted update.zip files just use update.zip only. At your own risk of course. For best results wipe factory/reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash update.zip and select reboot and system if prompted.

I would like to request transparent Sense widgets. I have been reading up on how to decompile apks and such, but I believe I am in over my head. I mainly am looking for a transparent large weather clock personally. Mainly just remove the black bar behind the weather. (Example below) If anyone wants to do this it would be greatly appreciated.

I will continue to learn and see where I can get with it but I have a funny feeling someone out here could get it done in a couple of hours...

I knew I should have taken programming back in school. :(

Hi all, has anyone come across one of these 'mirror' covers for the S3 LCD that actually covers the whole screen?

I've been trying to find one. The 2 that I bought (on Ebay) both left a frame of a couple of mm on the LCD screen.

I've been told that due to the curbing of the screen, no one does a cover/protector that goes all the way, but surely there

must be something out there?

Thanks in advance

Every icon pack i apply does not change contact and MMS icons at touchwiz bar. Phone icon and home icon and all some others may change.

What i did:

1-Fresh firmware install via Odin

2- Rooted

3- Installed busybox

4- flashed some icon pack like ICS v3 icon pack.

... Fail....

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] voidvader:
That's what i did too. I could not find one single pack that could change those 2 icons in the middle (contacts and MMS). I also tried flasinhg another kernel (kuro, white and merruk) with stock rom but nothing happens. I also tried to edit the names, but i only get success with some icons and these two are hard as rock... They are so ugly. I have the 4 icons and just want to do one change in the stock that is install the glass icons touchwiz i have.

Yes they are there. Using root explorer i observed that what seems to take efect in tochwiz is otherwise launchermessage.apk and launchercontact.apk .... For example, if i delete any of those 2 they disappear from touchwiz. I can install them again from a backup but they won´t return to tochwiz bar which will be permanently with only two icons : home and dialer.

Maybe if i could edit this apk someway...just wondering.

Ok so I have .mkv's that I have ripped from physical Blu-Rays. I have converted them to h.264 mp4's using ripbot264. The settings I have are AVC high profile 4.0 progressive, 2-pass encoding, 4000kbps video @ 720p, & 2-channel audio AAC @128kbps.

With these settings, one would think that the Nexus 10 would have no problem at all playing the video back smoothly via the stock video app. Unfortunately this is not true, the video playback is constantly choppy and I am trying to figure out what the problem is.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] triteata:
My HD2 (with this ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=769026 ) has proximity sensor problems (it constantly detects 0cm distance) and the screen doesn't wake up after call. After spending 3 hours trying to fix it I realised I couldn't (I'm not confident enough to open the phone and try cleaning it) and I just want to desable whatsoever.

Unfortunately, I tried these methods:

and neither of them is working. Please tell me if there's other way to stop it :?

Sanity does work - it can enable my screen when the call is over, but during call my phone is totally unusable - i can't write notes for example. That's why I'm trying to desable the proximity sensor turning off the phone in the first place.

Any ideas will be appreciated!

p.s. I didn't try reinstalling the Rom, as it was working perfectly and this issue only appeared after not using the phone for a while.

Why in the world would HTC create "honeycomb" wallpapers to a new phone called "DNA" How about some helical shapes, cells, nucleotides...etc... They need to get out of that honey comb crap. Don't get me wrong they do look nice but come on thats what? 3 OS ago? Thats why HTC will stay behind on that department, wallpaper creativity.

Sorry didn't mean to throw this on you. Its just that its a great phone and company but they spend little time on simple details like; skins, wallpapers, ringtones, why even have the HTC Hub?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] globed:
Alright so im going to start by just saying that i had a similar project going with the galaxy nexus but I ran into kernel panic issues, that and I just got busy with life( school, work, job, etc). Now my time has freed up due to my last semester in school. So I am looking to pick this project back up but for the galaxy s3 Verizon...

Now i already have a compiled image based on the Ubuntu Leo originally created for the HD2( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOPu6DgbOs4 ) ......... this week i will be working on a kernel.

Now the image itself has been modified slightly from the hd2 version,...I will be looking for devs to help me with a kernel if this is you and you would be interested in helping please pm me. if you would like to alpha this also pm me ill start a list in this thread. Looking to get this going quick. ill have the image up by the end of the week if anyone is interested in experimenting with it. and i'm hoping for an alpha stage build by the end of the month.

If you have any questions just ask away.

Project Ubuntu

What you need to know

There is plans on having fully 3g/4g capability

Plans on MMS Capability

This is not a direct full desktop port. Its a modified/ optimized for armed devices based on the image used with the HD2

It will use a Linux based android Kernel

If you would like to Alpha this please PM me, and if you would like to help with the kernel ( I could use the help) also PM me.

I will update with progress later, and update with more details later. The point in doing this is the exact same as it has been in the past....because it would be pretty flipping awesome ;) and secondly this would open Ubuntu up, it would offer up just another OS option.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Awesome.

I have a question though. Will the OS boot as a stand alone operating system or will it boot inside android?

my tapatalk signature sucks more than yours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] globed:
It will be a stand alone no chrooted. It to start will run along side android booting from the sdcard like a dual boot set up. After beta it will be flashed in place of android

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyroemaniac:
It is very possible to use, I have chroot linux mint running on my phone right now.

I direct port would make much smoother and more compatible as well. Just imagine connecting a bluetooth keyboard and mouse and hooking up to your tv. Extremely portable linux machine.:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fr8cture:
I don't see how it would work since everything would be shrunk down and hard to tap on. Also still not portable as you would need to carry around a mouse and keyboard. Just my opinion. Once again cool idea but i don't see it as being useful on such a small screen.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] globed:
First off try looking at the youtube video.... the port its self has been modified for armed devices ( hense the youtube video) Second the version of ubuntu my image is based off of does have 3g capability writing a module to use with 4g wouldn't be to difficult. Third just to make this clear when beta is released it will have MMS Capability, and Phone capability. Again look at the youtube video. its not a direct port from the desktop version its an optimized and modified for armed devices.

What do you think?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] globed:
Well there is one issue you have. That I can see. First off when a Linux is running chrooted it's like running a Os on a virtual box or system. So vnc is used to access the graphics. I so I'm not sure entirely even if you got a graphics driver working that it would work. I I'd need a little more information on it. It's not running native so good idea though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LLStarks:
It's not a native boot, but the necessary folders are mounted. I could write to the screen from the chroot once /dev/graphics/fb0 was exposed.

Do you think it would be productive to build a pure-Linux Cyanogen or LeanKernel in that environment.

Here's the config I have: http://pastebin.com/hXencfhF
