Chronus works perfect on lockscreen, but on homescreen it only shows time/date even if i resize. Maybe my used laucher (TSF shell) is the culprit?

Quinny, I found two points in the OP you forgot to change the Chronus name.

Also, do you need me to change the video's title? As that still says Chronus.

How do I get Chronus to display weather and calendar events on the home page of the lockscreen as soon as I wake the phone. Right now all I see is the clock and I have to drag down on it to resize the space it occupies to see more information. But that does not stick, as soon as the screen is relocked and woken again. Thanks for any help.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] c.r.e.a.m.36:
Hey everyone, wanted to ask a couple questions regarding my S3 LTE (first post so be kind! :p)

I recently upgraded to the S3 LTE (I'm with T-Mobile/EE UK), as most of you know it comes with Android 4.1.1, I've heard that the update to 4.1.2 is becoming available, I wanted to do a manual search for it, but nothing shows up in the settings menu. I have gone to 'about device', but there is no option to manually search. Anyone know why it is not present?

Also, I've installed quite a few large apps (mainly games), and I've almost maxed out my internal storage, I've still got 400mb left. I have tried to install a few small apps, such as the original Angry Birds (27.63mb) but everytime I try to download it or other apps I get a message saying 'insufficient storage' or 'package file invalid'.

I've included screenshots.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] shaz2sxy:
The update will need to be done via kies unless you are going to root and install a different ROM

the second issue, you will have to make more space, sounds like there isnt enough space to save, and unpack the apps.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] c.r.e.a.m.36:
Sorry I'm a newb, don't really know what Kies is or what it exactly does (also not looking to root or anything like that)? :o

I always thought you would get the notification of a software update or manually search.

Also, I understand that space is low, but surely 400mb should be enough for small apps like Angry Birds to save and unpack?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] shaz2sxy:
Kies is Samsung Software to sync.backup etc your phone. it also lets you update the firmware when it is officially released.

The Samsung phones don't do OTA(Over the Air) updates like some other phones

With the space, the phone may have a fail safe minimum to keep as if there is non left then most apps will probably have no where to save temp files.

This is the only negative I have with the S3 phones.

Thanks for the reply guys, I installed Kies and was notified that an update was available, I installed the update, which was not 4.1.2 and there was no change to the build number etc. However now on my about page there is an option for 'software update' to manually search for updates, which I as stated was not previously there.

Also, I'm not looking to root, but thanks for the info anyway.

Hello guys,I am an LWW user and since I've updated to ICS .587 firmware the game called Shadowgun doesn't run. What happens is after installation when I run it for the first time I can play normally but after quitting the game and running it again when I click on resume the loading screen appears and the game closes and it goes back to desktop. And I have tried almost all custom roms and kernels but most of these are based on the stock firmware .587 so it doesn't work. Please help me out. Anyone here got it working with this firmware??

[LG Optimus 4X HD] trapacska:
Hi guys.

I just found a method to install ota_update.zip (generated from aosp android build)

place ota_update.zip on /cache/ota_update.zip

then adb:

adb shell am start -a com.lge.hiddenmenu -n com.lge.hiddenmenu/.HiddenMenu

an activity comes up, go to Image Updater, then press Connect (need live internet connection), it will take several seconds

and then press Update.

Tested ONLY CODE!!!! IT MEANS THE CODE USING OTA_UPDATE.ZIP INSTALLER SHOULD WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I start testing, i will write that update zip with runnable script to make full map,(BOOT PARTITION FLASHABLE?) and logs.

If this code works in live really, we can make a update.zip flasher in recovery as well.(because if need to test(ported roms lot tests.) i don't want to put original kdz back and then reflash zip

(if you press update without put file on cache partition, it is asking for file.)

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE ANY HARM YOU MAKE YOURSELF WITH YOUR DEVICE.

Let's discuss guys. And if it helped please hit me a thanks! :angel:

need to get a factorially signed zip. that can be from official ota.

and sorry guys but i really think that we need jtag.

need to disassembly the phone, put a wire between a special point and gnd, that will enable usb WRITE

i already got working nvflash in APX mode, but no success to start write anything.

So JTAG, or we need to charck/hack the official LG updater, what updates kdz, but there will be signature problem again.

This method works, already tested by me. but without proper signatures recovery will bump error screen and stuck there without sh exec.

i stop trying to hack p880 until i can't get a proper internet connection.

i made an usb driver for Optimus 4x to get nvflash work in apx mode, still no usb write.

weird.

I have found something in the official manual of the P880 refering to JTAG on page 144, 162, 167, 168, 175.

I also found something intereressting on page 124 and following, especially page 131.

There you can read, that a "USB Mega Lock" is needed "for security reasons"

Its all about the "B2B LGMobile Support Tool" and the "LGFlashTool".

I don't know much about this stuff, so i would recommend that everybody who is interested read this by his own.

Hi everyone! My contract is ending and I just ordered new P-880 being aware that bootloader is locked and not cracked yet. I couldn't find anything even close to spec of Optimus / Swift 4X HD for similar price. Since i remember i was modding my phones starting from v-clay on Siemens MC60, Anyway... I'm ashamed of myself because price-tag won over principles, so I'm willing to help in cracking this puppy. I've got good understanding of Linux OSes (I use them daily), unfortunately I'm not so good in low level stuff (HEX, assembly etc.), but I'm willing to take risk to the some extent.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tdrussell:
This x10000000

Leave your freaking memory management to the OS. You are not smarter than your phone, you're murdering your battery life AND performance.

If you kill all apps, your phone's going to sit there for the next 90 seconds re-launching half the stuff you just closed, pegged at 100% CPU.

Even so, if you're sitting there on LTE, 1% per hour is perfectly normal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
The other thing with cell standby being as high as it is, you might be getting signal loss or excessive network switching.

Signal loss is the bane of battery life on any device.

I let my phone run down to 10% for the first time since I bought it 3 weeks ago, it was at 2 days 14 hours when I put it on the charger. It took 4.5 hours to get back to 100%. Now I know I can charge every other day instead of daily which should be better for my battery.

I agree with Travis that a reboot should be done every day, and never use a task killer, Let the phone manage your memory and quit worrying about it,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imablackhat:
I never use a task killer. However I never reboot. I dont see a need seeing how stable it is. Unix based. Like... my other phones have had 60 days and still stable and fine. My tablets over 100 still going fine.. reboot shouldnt ever be necessary.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
No, not UNIX based.

GNU/Linux based running a virtual machine for your applications, which are Java. It is stable, but not (and never will be) as stable as UNIX or even pure GNU/Linux. Java VMs in themselves aren't exactly the most stable things and despite GC can slow down at times and have other quirks. In a perfect world where every Android app dev is super dev and codes perfectly, then a reboot would never be needed.

That said, you have mentioned several times ending all tasks on your phone...you are using the built-in task manager from Samsung which is still a bad idea.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imablackhat:
My phones not slowed down or anything though. 12 days uptime. I dont wanna restart >< how often does everyone reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
Me?

About 10 times a day, but that is because I am using the phone when building android apps and end up hot rebooting myself half the time when I screw something up ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] th0r615:
Is bragging about up time, a stat that no one cares about, (for good reason) more important then battery life and stability?

I could leave my car running for a pretty long time and brag about that. Take it to the gas station and pump the gas while still running and all. But that's a really bad idea.

The only benefit is an imaginary number that is only important to you, while sacrificing real word performance.

I restart my phone probably once or twice a day on average. Sometimes I don't restart it all, others I do maybe 3 or 4 times.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkey10120:
I definitely recommend a reboot everyday. Not only for android devices, computers also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] skourg3:
Why are people so adamant about a reboot every day? Seriously, that was sort of necessary like 10 years ago, but modern devices really don't require it. They have enough disk/processing/memory capacity to be able to dynamically allocate resources without getting all messed up. It was a big deal when RAM was expensive and page files/swap spaces were heavily used because magnetic hard disk access is slow, especially when you have to read/write/modify a page file all the time. That's not an issue many modern PCs (I've had my page file turned off for a few years now.. well, mostly off, it's set to 16MB because some programs don't work with it off) and certainly not an issue on phones without dedicated swap space..

Maybe I'm missing something, but I just don't see it. Especially if you're on a high-end device. I reboot my phone/computer when something requires it, such as windows updates, driver updates, needing to flash something in recovery, etc. The "once a day" mark is really arbitrary, especially in a usage-independent context. Just reboot it when it needs it.
