[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
this ^^^^^^ it really cant get much simpler to root a phone, really

if youre worried about the size of the sdk find adb.exe and fastboot.exe and the drivers you need, a quick search will get you all of the above
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comminus:
This ^^. So much, this. I don't even...

I've added links for drivers and platform tools (contains adb and fastboot) in my signature. That should make things even easier!
[Galaxy S III General] keenofhiphop:
Hello guys I have a strange question:

a friend has the problem that sometimes he unlocks his phone, some apps are shown instead of the honescreen. He says he leaves the app via the back button, we could exclude that the apps start in the pocket. Also he shuts his phone off very rarely (right word?!? means not often).

Maybe you can help?

Thanks and Greets
[Galaxy S III General] akshatsourav:
freez them if they are not so important...

or block their startup ..
[Galaxy S III General] omizzz:
probably those free ad based apps. :/
[Galaxy S III General] keenofhiphop:
He says its most of the times "contacts" or similar. so important and not ad-based. I think I will tell him to download an antivirus program to check his phone and something like sdmaid.

I mean if he doesnt start the app by himself, the app either has to start by itself or by another app right?

And if nothing helps could we really say that its caused by the software and tell him to do a factory reset or restore the system?

[Galaxy S III General] akshatsourav:
yup ur rite....

frsh install of rom or factry reset is alwayz a good option ;)

Hi guys...!

I have bought a jig for me...so when i insert it all is normal...the phone boots in download mode but...

On the top of the screen there's "FACTORY MODE" and not "ODIN MODE"

Is it normal?

I'll post you some photos...

ODIN MODE:

FACTORY MODE(with jig):

Thanks in advance :) :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mosta_9741:
where did u buy ur jig and how much was it and omg its the first white wonder i seeee
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miki2o:
I bought it on ebay...it was "only" 2€(about 3$) and....yes is very WONDERFUL in white coloration xD
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
I have white too, I love white phones and because was the only color when it first came out in Kuwait.

I never tried this so I have no idea, wait till pep comes he knows what to do in those situations.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pepoluan:
Well, a USB Jig basically forces the phone into Download Mode... on Steroids.

I never used one so this is a guess, but I think the Jig opens up some additional areas not normally unlocked in Odin Mode.

For instance, using Odin will increase the flashing counter (CMIIW), but with a USB Jig, the counter can be reset.

But the font was too small so I kept changing the dpi till it was readable and I found its 106 to have tablet UI but the font I went to settings system and put font to huge n now its perfect and YouTube now actually plays HD videos in HD.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanielTejeda:
Hello Guys,

I just bought a SGH-I9300 (GALAXY S3) from a guy over a local buy/sell website we have downhere (I am from Dominican Republic) and he told me that even though my phone is the International version if I upgrade from ICS to JellyBean it will not be able to acquire signal from the local carrier somehow.

I was ok with staying in ICS until I realized that the live camera effects where not working or installed for me... :(

So I have 2 questions for you guys:

1- Why the hell are they not there already if they are supossed to be there by default on a S3?

2- If I upgrade over the air, will it really lose the signal from the carrier?

Note the phone is rooted for some reason which I am not a fan of since I fried my I9100 a couple of days ago, so I want to keeo it as stock as as possible.

Let me know because I do not wish to mess this one up too.

Thanks in advance,

Dan.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Could you please provide a screenshot of the About-device screen in the config.

I'm not sure it's stock and/or even original

Afaik there is no difference between how Ics and Jb connect so I think the seller told you bolloks. Also, you can always downgrade but that will require you to wipe the phone - aka: you'll need backups

Ok so i just made this thread to find out what features you guys like whether on cyanogenmod or miui.

i currently have a locked bootloader but working to unlock it so which means i am using miui rom.

my favourite feature in this rom is the graphics and the online music i can listen directly to all the playlist.

so post yours as well:cool::cool::cool::)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] predatOr:
Better remove the Off-topic from OP... Otherwise some mod will move it to OFF TOPIC forum:p and Archer will definitely lock it in OT

MIUI- awesome music player, countless themes, looks beautiful,fast, but no app drawer

CM- it's CyanogenMod :D, better support for my phone

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iPusak Gaoq™:
hmmmm...between Miui and CM????

okay here is my favourite between both of them....

------- MiUi -------

1. built-in call/msg blocker (firewall)

2. built-in MiUi backup

3. themes can be customizes

4. fully customizes status bar (control panel)

5. lockscreen is differents on each themes

6. MiUi music player (the best)

7. LBE Guard (got a few extras apps such as App control)

8. Stable and fast

------ CM ------

1. Frequently Updated

2. Plenty of themes (can be downloaded from market)

3. Stable and fast (depend on which CM do you use)

4. App drawer

Errrr...couldn't find more on CM cause i'm new using CM :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
I really like the features of Cyanogenmod and that it's not so hard to compile updates on my PC. But MIUI has a beautiful interface, too :)

I would choose Cyanogenmod: Best features and best style! AOSP :cool:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pokazene_maslo:
I like MIUI security app which allows fine privileges management for all apps (GPS access, phone state, etc.)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Rudjgaard:
You can do that on cm10 too and it actually works better.....

Tbh they are both my favourite roms. Miui is very well "built" allowing for total customization of your phone with very easy to mod themes. Also i love the contacts sorting options, like only show contacts with phone numbers and the possibility of removing avatars from contacts and sms.

CM is faster and snappier, with miui i always have a little lag when turning on and unlocking lockscreen and when receiving calls, cm is smoooth like butter.

CM10 base and miui theme engine instead of t-mobile, i think that wouod be the ultimate rom...

Apparently according to this comparison there are lots of difference, especially in supported media formats and bluetooth profiles!

Can anyone confirm this at all?

Why dont u ring up samsung and ask them for details
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] omniwolf:
I would say the answer is that the webpage is wrong.

- it says the 9300 has LTE

- it suggests that 9305 doesn't have the samsung hub

- the display tech should be Super AMOLED HD.. not plus for 9300 and nothing for 9305 (i think)

- i9300 has face detection and face recognition? that's the same thing.

- 9305 doesn't have AMR-WB? this isn't true

- CPU speed on both are 1400 - 1600??

etc etc

i think the webpage is just wrong and i wouldn't pay it any attention.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] qavro:
Actually not. Face detection is the one in the pictures taken by the camera, and face recognition is the one used to unlock your phone if you chose to be unlocked biometric (face recognition in this case) These 2 have nothing to do one with each other...

well the biometric option is called "face unlock", but whatevs. The site is still wrong :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] btemtd:
100% wrong ... I would look at sites once you know the specs no need to look ever again so The answer is they are practically Identical In looks they are 100% just different colour but hardware its with more ram and a Qualcomm 4G chip and doesnt have the FM radio chip in it. Although it does have the broadcom chip even like the i9300 which does support FM. But its not hooked up so its not in use. The I9300 on he other hand has another FM chip which is hooked up and in use. I would say samsung didnt really worry about the FM chip as only a minority of people listen to FM on there phones.

Done. thats all there is to it :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiki2134:
Hi, guys...

I started learning about rooting android phones from here.....amazing forum.

Anyway!

The problem I'm having is terrible audio distorsion(think of 8bit sound from the NES days) when making calls. Once every 6-7 calls are fine, but the rest of them are terrible. I have to note that this applies to sound coming out of either the earpiece OR through earphones.

When using Viber, things are fine. The same goes for Skype.

I read somewhere on this forum that the source of the problem is the satellite signal being too loud...lowering the device's volume does not solve the issue, of course.

Any tips on how one might solve this?

Thank you in advance!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goodm7sn:
U mean it happens one every 6 or 7 calls? Or vice versa?

Cos I have this distortion like at least one or twice every 6 to 7 calls,it only happens on cellular calls, nothing removes it but hanging up and re dialing :confused:

My friend's note 2 (exact same as mine) has this same problem, it's frustrating after a while.

If anyone knows anything more on this let us know please.

Thx
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiki2134:
The thing stopped happening for now. Yay!

But it worked once every 6-7 calls. I had terrible distortion the rest of the time.

What I want this post to be is a video review of each accessory. So you can see how the cases and accessory fit and look on your Galaxy Note II. I will add new video at lease bi weekly highlighting a new accessory.

Published on Dec 8, 2012

In this video I take a look at one of the most popular cases out for the Galaxy Note II. The case is the Protective Flip Cover. I give this case a 10 out of 10 for style and look. As far as protection this leaves a lot to be desire. I give it a 1 out of 10 (10 being the highest) in protection. So if your not worried about dropping your phone this might be the case for you.

Hello everybody. I've a problem with setcpu with the JB stock Rom Vodafone UK(3.14.161...). I was able to run it and let it running in background but since yesterday I updated to JB, I set the setcpu options, and when I go out from the app and close it, I reopen the app and the options I set before are still in there but its like it doesn't work properly, because I want to underclock to 1,2 ghz but when I open the app the clock is usually in 1,4ghz and I look for the clock frequencies graphics and see there are lots of time using more than 1,2 ghz. So that should means setcpu is not working properly, anyone has an idea how I can make setcpu work properly? Thank you very much mate!!

here is the guide that I followed
[HTC One X] peedub:
My recommendation is to go back to a more stock ROM. You don't sound particularly experienced, and this ROM is not a finished product.

You need to hold power + vol down to get back to the boot loader.

And the worst part, is that if you don't acknowledge the message (like when I'm sleeping) the screen will stay on.

Alright status report: I "borrowed" my sister's battery (okay, I stole it. Whatever) and after charging it from 40%, once it reached 71%, the temperature warning still came. So that means it's not a problem with the battery itself...
