[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sorceror171:
Mine's working well enough for me (haven't had the horrible problems others report, just occasional ANRs on the browser), and I want to retain warranty coverage just in case. Plus, I have other hack targets like a Raspberry Pi and such. Once the warranty expires, I will certainly unlock and play around with it.

Update: see the Google developer thread here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=42265

The symlink trick may not work on versions of Android past Gingerbread, except on some specific applications (Google Maps appears to be one). Looks like the Dalvik VM on Android doesn't read from /dev/random itself; but some of its operations may end up calling get_random_bytes() in the kernel. So seeding the entropy pool would be necessary in that case, and the symlink trick doesn't do that.

I actually ended up disabling it again and I didn't notice any change in performance. Didn't seem to do anything for me.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZebTheCalvinist:
I'm running it on my Prime and my Note 2 with what seems to be at least a slight increase in responsiveness. The Note 2 is dang snappy by itself, and I'm running Energy on my Prime, which is a lot smoother than stock. I would be interested to see how it works with older, laggier devices. I may boot up an old handset and see how it works on there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stantang:
It's working for me, my prime used to have that annoying 2-3 seconds lag when returning to Apex Launcher from apps (even with HB 1.5), but that's almost 90% gone with Seeder running. Not to mention my Gallery loads much faster
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ScumDroid:
placebo.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] McJesus15:
It works on my M600 Zio quite well. On my Prime, I can't truly say. It seems a little more responsive but I've never really had lag on the Prime unless I was writing large files to the internal storage and trying to do something else at the same time (rarely ever happens anymore with clemsyn's kernel).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stretchwookie:
i prefer crossbreader. the rng they us is a bit more efficient, and it comes with a couple more mods. i havent used on my prime but i have noticed measurable improvements on my note 2 (i multi task a LOT of apps a LOT of the time). for now its only a cwm install and uninstall zip, but they plan on making an installation apk soon. another benefit of this is that it doesnt run every 5 seconds like seeder does. this one is set to 30, and still maintains entropy levels of 3700-4096, hovering mainly at the 4000 mark (at least for me and many users)

[Motorola Droid RAZR] yjung15:
I just want to clarify:

If I'm on ICS stock with safestrap installed,

and create a ROM slot and install a custom rom, it has nothing to do with kernel change, right?

So if a specific JB rom requires 'JB kernel' then this is not something I can do with safestrap even with fresh ROM slot?

Is there a safe way to install JB kernel and have the option to revert back to ICS stock?
[HTC Droid DNA] svir:
Hey guys,

I keep deleting the Verizon installed garbage from the DNA as I am using it on T-Mobile, but after the device is rebooted all of the bloat is back on the device.

And on it goes again, remove with TB, verify afterwards, use the device and as soon as it is restarted all app that were previously removed are back on the device.

The phone is currently on Verizon DNA 1.15.605.4 Rooted/Deodexed/Semi-Debloated/Busybox, but it was happening on the stock rom as well.

Please help as this is very frustrating
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Install one of DSB's kernels which allows you to write to the system while booted. This will make your changes stick.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikoal:
So , when asked what are some useful apps for android often times a lot of the answers that would come back are fairly similar, because the apps have been proven useful. I’ve been looking at many useful apps and below is a small list of what I’ve tried.

-	Adaway

-	SetCPU

-	Terminal Emulator

-	Mobile odin

-	Twrp (I know not an app)

-	TiBu

-	SD Maid

-	RAM Manager

I haven’t been using SD maid and RAM manager long, not sure if its really that great.

Then I started to run into these “combo” apps.

-	Andromizer Pro

o	App delete restore: similar to TiBu

o	CPU setting: SetCPU

o	RAM Setting: RAM Manager

o	3G/4G network optimizer: Similar to 3g/4g optimizer app I’ve seen

o	Wifi scan interval setting

o	LCD density setting

o	IMEI backup: I don’t know if this works

o	Etc.

-	Rom Toolbox Pro

o	Rom managent: Similar to Rom manager, mobile odin, twrp/cwm for the rom?

o	App manager: Similar to TiBu

o	Root explorer: Similar to RE

o	Scripter/TE: Similar to Terminal Emulator

o	Ad blocker: similar to adaway

o	SetCPU: similar to setCPU

o	Etc.

-	System Tuner Pro

o	Backup/restore app similar to TiBu

o	TE: similar to Terminal Emulator

o	CPU manager: similar to SetCPU

o	CPU memory control similar to RAM manager?

o	Etc.

So here are my questions:

1)	Are these combo apps recommended?

2)	How come I rarely hear about these apps, but instead the individual apps listed in the beginning of this post are mentioned? Are these not as great?

3)	These combo apps seems like a great deal, they seem to include all the individual app’s feature. So are they useful? Reliable? Should I buy these combo apps instead of the single apps?

4)	Even in these combo apps there are overlaps, is one more reliable/stable than the other? Preferred over another?

Being still a noob, some individual android tweaking apps are overwhelming let alone these combo apps.

These combo apps almost seem too good to be true. I know that I tried to change my boot animation with Rom toolbox pro but didn’t work. I’m not sure if andromizer’s IMEI backup works.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobAbooE:
I have been using jrummy's work since my droid x, I bought rom toolbox pro to support him. I really don't use it but I know some on here do. He's good people.

If I am going to give an app root rights, I want it to be from a quality dev, he's always working on it.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mark923:
I've been very happy with this tablet for almost a year, its been virtually trouble free. But all of a sudden (after a week of vacation using another house's wifi all week) I get home and my tablet is in constant reboot mode the last 3 days at home and work. (Android 4.1.1, Build 10.4.2.18-20121122, unrooted, basically out of the box).

I did a factory reset this morning, and it doesn't seem to have fixed the problem. It's even rebooting before I've reinstalled all my apps, so it doesn't seem to be a bad app?

Any others experiencing this and any suggestions?

Thanks

This is my first post in this forum but I have been reading threads on it allot to diagnose my problems which I normally do but I have ran into my first problem that I can't find info on. I have a Htc Rezound and I Updated it to 4.03.605.2 via hboot and after that it wont boot, it just boot loops over and over. I have tried to reapply the RUU multiple times but still the same result, no boot. I re-downloaded it from android police site again and still no boot. I have s-on and relocked. Can someone please help so me and others that run across this problem get it solved. Thanks in advance

[HTC Rezound] macdaddie87:
I have checked the MD5 and they match so its the right RUU. It is not getting a boot animation just the white HTC screen. Could there be something wrong with the internal sd because i tried to wipe it and i got this

(Invalid argument)

Error mounting /internal_sdcard/!

[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Try a different recovery. Also a ph98img.zip flash of a boot.img
[HTC Rezound] NilayS:
I also have the same prob but a bit more, I have tried everything i could do to bring it back on.

Mine is relocked, S-On, On latest hboot version 2.27, Gets stuck on HTC Logo, bootloops & then enters Download mode, Stays on download mode for sometime then bootloop process repeats continuously until i dont turn off the phone with a battery pull.

Re-flashing the RUU also doesnt help. Tried it several times with different Downloads, different sd cards still not booting.

Tried Unlocking the Bootloader thru Fastboot from PC, Goes thru the process perfectly without any errors, but when i go to bootloader it still shows Re-locked everytime.

I have been reading a lot of threads from past one month, the only thing i can think of is the Jtag unbrick. (Which is not available in my city in India)

I think the boot partition or the emmc is damaged.

Do you have any other way to bring it back to life ? Like flashing thru download mode ? Or will flashing the boot.img as ph98img.zip as you suggested do any good ?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smelenchuk:
4.2-based ROMs exhibit a "ramping" behaviour wherein you only get an HSPA/HSPA+ connection if your phone's actively using mobile data; have you tried doing something data-intensive while in that state?

The only real differences between sgnote and s3 are the larger screen, the s pen functions and the battery. ..which is much better on the note 2.

For me both are very good devices.

Hey Guys, I had upgraded to the official Jellybean and then yesterday finally rooted my phone. I wanted to flash the redruM ROM onto my phone...long story short after the Flash through Mobile ODIN my phone did what I can only assume is soft brick, but I found another thread with a stock rom and was able to restore the phone back to ICS now running the redruM rom. My question is can redruM work with JellyBean or at least a Jellybean ROM or do I have to pick one or the other? I saw another developer that listed like 5 different ROMS he had installed...can you have more than one rom? I searched and couldn't find and answer for these questions...any advice is welcom because I loved several features of JellyBean that I lost in reverting to ICS with redruM.

Thanks

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
you linked a sprint rom, you need to be a alot more careful flashing things. You can not have 5 different roms. This is the Redrum JB rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1750270 and can not stress enough, read more.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jeremywilson:
Huh then I wonder if I just put the wrong link...because the ROM worked great once I recovered the phone back to stock with boot-stock-tmobile-sgh-t999 through desktop ODIN...when the phone rebooted...jellybean was gone and the redrum ROM was working just fine with the phone being moved back to ICS 4.0.4....

Regardless the crisis was averted and I've since moved over to Wicked Sensations JB and was even able to backup the "Awesome Beats" program from the redruM ROM and now have it running with wicked....so I'm happy!

Now if I could just get rid of the screen burn that was on the phone when I bought it that I didn't notice!

Thanks for your advice guys...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
What you wrote makes no sense, but...

Why are you over on the Sprint forums flashing roms to your phone when you clearly have little knowledge on what you're doing, lol? If you have any questions PM me or someone who seems knowledgeable enough to help you. I fear your phones life.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jeremywilson:
Not sure what didn't make sense to you...

I was able to get my soft bricked phone into download mode and was able to flash a stock rom from ODIN on my desktop and when the phone booted back up the build was 4.0.4 and was successfully running the redrum rom that originally caused the problem...

Like I said...I probably posted the wrong link to the Sprint ROM as I just did a search for the redrum rom and picked the first one that came up...so my bad I probably posted the wrong link...

Once jellybean was gone after the flash back to stock redrum worked fine...and based on what I'm gathering from you guys is a Sprint ROM won't work on t-mobile phone...well what I'm telling you is that it worked fine after Jellybean was gone...there was a problem with the redrum rom and Jellybean.

But none of that matters..my phone is fine and running a great ROM that I am thoroughly enjoying.

Hope that clears it up...

On 12/28/12 I returned my Nexus 7 including a printout with the following issues printed and included in the package:

​

Screen shows yellowing/staining on bottom left of screen (portrait orientation) while playing games or viewing video for longer than a half hour.

Device similarly gets very hot.

Screen colors are very dull, when compared to that of a cell phone.

If screen bezel is pressed firmly on the bottom left of screen (portrait orientation) the LCD ripples.

If screen bezel is pressed firmly on the bottom left of screen (portrait orientation) the device makes a "plastic-on-plastic" noise.

NOTES:

Serial Number: CSSN: **************** (can be seen under Settings->About Tablet->Status)

*SSN: C70**********

*Actual physical sticker containing serial number is not affixed to the product on its exterior. (A copy of the warranty card has been provided in the package)

I recieved the package today with a printout from ASUS that included the following information:

Model: AS NEXUS7 1B/T30L/16/1G/V

Serial No: **********

Problem: LCD Color Abnormal Display

New PArt No: 90R-OK0M1L10000U

New Part No Desc: [90R-OK0M1L10000U] ME370T-1B LCD MOD+TOPCASE ASSY

User Problem: cx saying he seeing yellow dots on the left, the screen is really dull.

I powered up the device, the display seems sturdy, however it is still rippling on the bottom left, and the screen is still washed out. I haven't tested for the yellowing of the screen, mostly because I'm in a fit of rage right now.

To top it all off, when I called in, their system was down for maintainence.

I'm not positive, but it sounds to me like they just modified my bezel. I'm not sure, how anyone could have thought this would fix my LCD screen being dull, and yellowing.

I reached out on Twitter with no response yet, I'll call back in a few hours to see about sending it back in to the incompetent technicians...
[Nexus 7 General] Adinaky:
The washed screen is not a problem. This is the N7 screen, don't compare it to cell phones, they usually have different screens. The N7 is a great device, wait and you'll see.
[Nexus 7 General] Winesnob:
I've been shocked (read as amazed) with the resolution and sharpness on the N7. Doesn't have the color intensity of AMOLED, but I'll sacrifice that for speed and detail. It's a portable device for consuming information, and for that it works very well. I've got a PS3 for gaming.
[Nexus 7 General] ts1002:
I wonder how your story has ended. I had the same situation with my Nexus 7, except my device get bricked. The service claimed that mainboard was replaced and refused to fixed it (even worst, charged for not fixing it). I wonder if it's ASUS fault or somebody really replaced the mainboard on the way, in shop, or in the service. I have no idea, but the board couldn't replace itself.
