Apologies if this has been covered to death. I scanned many recent threads but couldn't find much.

My aging desire z is getting on my tits and was wandering if the s2 is still a viable modern handset. I know that the community is still very active but can't help thinking I'd be better off going for a nexus of some sort. Stock android is not a worry as it'll get flashed anyway.

I know the old view of 'get the best you can afford' applies, but money is short :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
Well, there are plenty of developers who put their time in making roms etc., so that's not a problem. If you want your phone to be updated faster, you have to buy a Nexus phone. It's all up to you, asking here will give you mixed results (or no answer at all).

I have a question about flashing. I use Linux so will be flashing with heimdall. What I want to know is do I have to flash a stock ics/jb Rom first or can i go straight for custom fun? I used to flash my sgs1 with odin and cwm so understand the whole download mode and the like.

I don't have call block on so I don't know what's going on. I can make calls just fine but for some reason my incoming calls are getting canceled without my knowledge or the phone ringing.

download the app. it needs root btw. then set(fake) your simcard to t-mobile. this is the best simcard country to show all the hidden apps and games from the play store.

make sure after you set/fake your simcard to t-mobile force close your play store. then wait for like 3 minutes wait for it to load. then you will see all the apps and games that you have never seen before and also paid apps and games will be shown.

Hello,

I hope I am posting this is the right forum. When I got my nexus 7 I started buying lots of apps and games. It is now to the point where my play store purchases are almost worth as much as the nexus itself. I don't want to root but I already have many games deleted due to space. The main worry I have is if I don't root and backup and the app/game gets taken down I don't want to lose everything I have paid for. I have my backup pro however it never backed up even more then a fraction of what I own. I thought it would as it seemed to backup for non rooted devices too.

My other question is if a dev stops working on a app/game and it needs internet to verify purchase will I lose that program for good? I never have been into buying digital programs until this android device only physical copies. Thank you very much for and advice you can give me.
[General Topics] thehackersz:
Tbh, i rooted my phone just to get rid all those ads. Yeah Titanium backup (the best yet) required root to backup and restore you apps.

There is a version of MyBackup that doesn't require root. Though, it may not be able to backup all your apps due the lack of root access.

[General Topics] mikmusc:
Yeah I have my backup pro that I bought sadly it needed root for a lot of the data. Go backup pro seems to not work with my device. I will give andro zip a try. With all these amazing sales they are having for Christmas I will have to root if that program will not work with a dropbox. Its amazing how fairly most developers price there games on android vs psn,xbox live or the eshop. I really am loving android I have more games on this then every game system I own combined.
[General Topics] BlueDevil90:

I make it a thing, when I have to replace something (like my SGP 4.0, because my microSD slot is failing) to look for devices in my price range and then come here to xda to see what the DEV scene is like and if it's strong enough to go for it, thats how I ended up with getting Tab 2 7" to replace my SGP 4.0, it has many ROMs of all Flavors ICS, 4.1 JB, CM10.1 nightlies just started this week just a good strong and fast little device, and since it has a 4,000 mah battery I can go 3x longer between charges.

The only thing that exists for the 3.6 is root on the stock rom. If you are using a 3.6 with a physical home button then use the eu rom, otherwise (capacitive home button) use the us root.

Hello, I'm a new owner of a Verizon Galaxy Note 2. I hate TouchWiz however, and am looking into custom ROMs. Luckily, my favorite ROM CyanogenMod 10 has tinkered its way overto the Verizon Note 2. I know what to do, as in root the phone, unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery, download the CM 10 port and Gapps, finally flash the ROM and Gapps to the phone. The problem is that I have NO CLUE ON EARTH on how to do this and am exceptionally lost. The new bootloader unlock method (which some may be aware of) is that it installs Twrp recovery. To use this port of CM 10 (Sbissen's port, link down below) you must use ClockworkMod recovery to make sure that this ROM port is installed correctly. Even though there is a link in Sbissen's CM 10 thread, Im still lost on how to correctly install CWM. Again, the problem is that I have no idea how to replace Twrp with ClockworkMod. I really, really, really, REALLY want to use Sbissen's CM 10 port, as it is dang near perfect to a stable build. If anybody can post in this thread detailed and NOOB friendly instructions on how to replace Twrp with CWR as mentioned in this post (and linked below) it would be GREATLY appreciated, as I want to get CM 10 working on my Verizon Note 2 very badly. Please help me if you have the time and can. Cheers and Happy Holidays!

Just download the zip file for CWM mentioned in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2045587

put the zip file on your phone (either on the internal memory or on the external sd card if you have one), reboot into recovery mode (twrp) and flash the zip file just like you would with any other file, this will replace TWRP with CWM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] LakerFam0824:
Ok take this with good intentions on my part. I spent weeks reading forums before I decided to get the note. I was back and forth on the DNA. I know how to unlock root and rom both from "reading". I came from the Fascinate and flashed the hell out of that phone and feel eniterly comfortable cuz I "read" I have followed many great devs from all three phones and the bottom line is always "read". If you are unsure "read" if you are still unsure "read". I have had my phone for 2 days now still stock... and still reading even though I am sure I could easily do whats necessary become a crack flasher. I am still "reading". My suggestion just sit back read the posts see wut others are having problems learn from these great devs and others who are way more knowledgeable than me. And when you feel completely comfortable... flash away my friend.

These guys will put forth the effort to help you as long as you meet them half way!

Once I root I can't ever get update from att again right?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
That is not correct. If you are simply stock rooted you can still receive ota updates, but will loose root if you don't use voodoo ota root keeper. If you have a custom recovery installed, the ota won't upgrade successfully. Most (all i can think of) custom roms have ota updates disabled. I do not know if this information applies to KIES updates, as i don't usually use it for updates.

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HSD-Pilot:
Wrong Forum, you should have an look into the OG RazR Forum.

I recommend you to get the right Fastboot File for your Region (Asia/EU/Verizon/CN).

www.sbf.droid-developers.org

Verizon (USA) is XT912

The Rest is XT910/XT909

Grap you RSD Lite and flash it back to stock. Charge your battery before that and only use ICS Fastboots, because you'll brick by using GB Files. After that make an FR in recovery and format the internal sd after the first boot. You'll get an phone like out of the box :thumbup:

There's an pinned Thread for RSD (Motorola Tools) or google it ;)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitemare3219:
Can use LMT which either allows you to use swiping gestures for command input (such as on screen button actions) or pie (gesture creates a half circle on side of screen with buttons). Once you have that, you can use the fullscreentoggle apk (both apps are on XDA, just Google) and remove the buttons. Works great for me for the most part. Had a few cases where LMT crashed and I had to reboot the phone due to not being able to back out of an app to restart LMT.

You need root for these as well.
