We've got two kids, so we have four tabs in the house plus my wife's and my two phones. This thing was a must. The only thing you have to watch out for, and this holds true no matter what charger you buy, is the USB cable you use. Not all USB 2.0 cables are created equal. Some impede the amperage.

I just stumbled up a newly released launcher called Arikui Launcher on the Play Store, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arikui.launcher

This simple but extremely smooth running launcher shows how launchers should be done. The swiping and animations are very well implemented and are extremely smooth and responsive. I have set my page transitions to the in and out animation and love the performance. Even tapping on an icon there is an extemely smooth and well done fall away animation. Coming back to the Arikui Launcher there is also another very well done and smooth run in animation.

The Arikui Launcher can be made to look similar to a Windows Phone home screen or a Nokia Meego rounded icons home screen. I went with the Meego style by setting the corner radius of the icons to maximum. It looks modern and stylish in a minimalist way.

I am running it on my Galaxy Note 2 and compared to Touchwiz or any of the other Windows Phone style launchers, nothing holds a candle to Arikui in terms of performance. The only thing this launcher needs is to make the icons/tiles resizable.

I hope other launchers can run as fast and smooth as Arikui and perhaps some devs could decompile it to see how it runs so smooth.

Cyanogenmod contains a feature (the app "Cyanogenmod Stats") that does anonymous reporting on rom usage to offer Cyanogenmod team statistics.

Is there any similar app for other roms?

I made my first rom a couple of days ago and having some statistics about usage doesn't seem a bad idea.

Some devs put the ROM in one file hosting location to count downloads, but that doesn't always reflect the real usage, having a good app can be useful for all.

I downloaded the Cyanogenmod Stats app and checked the code, it is very simple, needs a web server were data is stored (a form post with few fields), then the app does the rest, get the data and submit it to the server.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Remcotjuuh:
Hi all,

I was just wondering: how are you buttons? And with this I in particular mean how much they move/shake if you shake your phone. Since my good old Galaxy Ace had some very tough buttons, I'm wondering what the "standard" of our phones is. Mine do shake, both the power button and volume rocker, slightly when I shake my phone and I can also hear them, but I don't think they will break quickly.

For me, the loose-fitting volume rocker is one of the most annoying things about this phone. I know, first-world problems, right?

[Galaxy Camera Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Claghorn:
In the Settings "More Settings..." there is a "Nearby devices" item that says "Share your media files via DLNA". So the DLNA abbrev appears, but what the heck can you actually do with it. I have a Samsung TV that supposedly can access DLNA files, but the camera doesn't show up as a device on the TV, nor does the TV show up as a device on the Camera. I'm not really all that hot to use DLNA, but I'm curious what this stuff actually means since it shows up on the Camera. Anyone know how to do anything with these DLNA settings?

OK, New info: I played around with it some more, and found that if I login to the AllShare Play app, then the Nearby Devices settings actually do something (weirdly, the AllShare app doesn't seem to be involved anymore - there aren't any controls in that app I did anything with, just logged in and exited). Now when I turn on the file sharing toggle in Settings, my TV sees the camera and I can look at photos (but I haven't found any video that works yet).

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adams756:
Hi,

I'm starting this thread because I can't seem to find anyone on here/the whole internet that seems to have had a similar problem.

I've got a UK unlocked Samsung Galaxy S3 GT I9300 in pebble blue 16GB. I bought it pretty much when it came out and was pretty happy with it. I updated it to JellyBean 4.1.1 via KIES last year when it came out (October/November?) and again was pretty happy with it.

Unfortunately despite being super OCD over my devices I managed to crack the screen. I sent it off to a Samsung repair centre and they changed the screen out for a hefty price. Phone came back and it hadn't been wiped or factory reset etc.

Then in December last year, I think it was the 12th, I got the Sudden Death. Phone was close to full charge in pocket for a few hours, took it out to make a call, wouldn't turn on. So I took it into the shop and they sent it away to be fixed. Got it back about 10 days later, working, factory reset to 4.1.1.

So when I got it back I noticed that 4.1.2 I9300XXELL4 firmware was out. I downloaded that and Odin and flashed the BTU firmware for unbranded UK devices. All seemed to go totally fine, phone has been working ok since.

Once small problem I have had since as long as I can remember is that in about phone, under status, the device status changes from normal to modified all the time. It turns out this has something to do with my 64GB EXFAT micro SD Card though. I found a few people with similar problems and thought nothing more of it.

Now however, I've noticed the 4.1.2 firmware with the exynos abuse fix and MAYBE sudden death fix was out, so I'm pretty interested in flashing it. Anyway I came to flash it and thought I'd check to make my custom binary count etc was as it should be. Turns out its not! I've got custom binary download YES (2 counts). Current Binary SAMSUNG OFFICIAL and System Status OFFICIAL. So I'm just a bit perplexed as to how this has happened? Can this happen without rooting and just flashing stock firmware? Or has it been modified/rooted when its been aware for repair to Samsung? I'm just a little bit perplexed/annoyed that I've made sure I've always kept it stock so that its protected by the warranty etc as I've been an early adopter and have to keep it for 2 years. Yet here I am without any of the benefits of rooting yet I've technically voided my warranty and haven't actually done anything?

So just hoping for some thoughts on what could have caused this? Also, is my only option to remove this to ironically root, triangle away, stock flash/factory reset/unroot? I would like to flash this new I9300XXELLA firmware if its got potential fixes but I don't want to add to that binary counter if flashing through Odin unrooted is going to do this. Obviously KIES won't do it anymore as it thinks it's modified.

Hope you guys can help, any thoughts are appreciated!

Many thanks in advance.

UPDATE - Have just flashed using Odin the I9300XXELLA firmware found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1646610 Phones working fine and it hasn't added to the custom binary download counter. Still shows: YES (2 Counts)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endrit9:
ELLA is really smoother than rest of firmwares. If i was you i would.

1. Root with Cf root

2. Run triangleaway

3. Go into download mode and check if its official binary stock sammy 0 counts.

4. Remove battery.

5. Download odin 1.85

6. Downlload xxella

7. Flash xxella as PDA.

8 .wipe data in stock recovery

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unitnerd:
The 4.1.2 firmware you flashed via Odin is not officially signed by samsung( this is what i read I'm not 100% sure) This causes your counter to increase.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adams756:
Thanks I'll check out the root threads and give it a go. I live in UK, I bought the phone on a contract here but it's unbranded, I just got an O2 sim with it. Will this still be valid for warranty?

Thanks unitnerd. I didn't realise it might not be signed. Although thinking about it now I imagine it's probably because they're compiled by someone else after it comes out of KIES.

OP, best ROM threads are really pointless because each person is going to have a different lists of things they need the ROM to do and what they expect from a ROM.

There are stickies and tons of threads in Development to help you and guide you. Just pick a few ROMs that look interesting to you and flash them and see which best fits your needs.

Good Luck. Closing this one.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Nastybutler:
So I know that the devs are hard at work on getting us all kinds of CM, AOSP, and/or AOKP goodness, but I thought maybe if any of the devs are looking for some features to add it might be nice to have a thread they can refer to with everyones "wants" once the "needs" are met.

I'll start it off with a request to add support for BLN (back light notification) to an upcoming kernel. This, combined with the option to put the navigation bar on while dissabling the HW keys would be a great feature IMHO. Not to mention our stock notification LED pretty much sucks a big one.

ROM feature requests

Flashlight in notification drawer quick settings

More options in the shutdown menu (Boot to recovery, etc)

Get rid of the idiotic audio policy of volume reduction when plugging in headphones

Allow dialer rotation

The option to see the standard swipe lock screen before the secure lock.

True music controls on the lock screen

Better control of status bar icons (center clock, hide icons, change colors of icons, etc)

The ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume

Volume rocker music controls

Universal Qslide

Kernel feature requests

BLN

Enable audio through USB for devices like the Infuse Car Dock (I think this is a kernel issue, if not let me know and I'll put it with the ROM stuff)

I didn't see a similar thread on here, so if there is, kindly point me to it and a mod can delete this one. And if BLN support already exists in Sk8's kernel tell me that too, ha ha.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Murasakiii:
I haven't looked into the ROMs because I'm liking stock, but a request I do have for when I do decide to flash is to have a flashlight if it hasn't been incorporated into the ROMs out now. There's a lot of times where I need to look for something and don't feel like turning on my light switch. Would be a nice thing to be implemented if it hasn't been done and can be done.

I don't know if this is what you have in mind, but I use TeslaLED: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.flashlight&feature.. It has a widget you can add to the homescreen for a quick on off, as well as some other features. I actually have it as one of my lock screen apps. I wish there was a way to have it turn on when opened from the lockscreen, but it's only one extra tap.

Edit: Gah! John beat me to one.

My biggest things are center clock, ability to hide things on status bar, and a flashlight toggle. The Base has done pretty well but I would love a flashlight toggle in my quick settings in my notification drawer. The swipe for flashlight thing was so touchy that I disable it.

Also, I love the theme chooser app and ability to have easy themes for my ROMs like in CM10 and AOKP

EDIT: also the ability to boot straight into download and recovery mode like in certain other ROMs using the power button.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bleached45:
The Base ROM does have a flashlight built in, you can activate it in the notification drawer options.

I was using Tesla until I found this.

Though I do wish it was in the Quick Settings too.

I would also love native reboot options.

And lastly, I would love the ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Murasakiii:
I actually came up with a wish while looking at the android dev section.

It doesn't actually have to do with the rom itself, but I'm hoping that as things become further developed to not only have a Changelog but to have a what's working list/what's not working list or just the latter.

I see a lot of threads gets bogged down with DOES THIS WORK? IS THIS INCLUDED?

Granted there's a group of people out there that don't read and just flash, but it could be helpful for another group of people that compare and contrast roms (like myself) before flashing.

Anyone else agree?
