I would like to flash and have a phone better for gaming. And also i had mentioned that my dad's google account is locked in and i can't get rid of some of the personal data even from factory reset.

I was looking at the ICS' you mentioned and the latest one would be http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1434860 right? If so could you point me to a guide that could help me install it?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] eliaskammas:
ok to get rid of your dads account you must boot into recovery and wipe data....when phone is off hold down the power button until it goes to a menu...magldr or clk..depents on what the other guy that had the phone done with it...you will find an option "ad recovery" or something..choose it to boot into recovery and then wipe data...you should really search it...you will find what you need...this forum is full of guides...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Look in my sig, there's a guide. ICS is definitely better for gaming, you can flash any ICS ROM you choose but NexusHD2 is always good, I used that one too. If you want to just wipe your data then do what the person above said, i.e. wipe data/factory reset in CWM.

U can flash a new rom altogether. Here is a good one. Its the typhoon rom. I use it and its fast and stable.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=933951

Android being installed on the internal memory, MAGLDR (bootloader) and the clockwork mod recovery are already installed.

U can download the rom, put it in the root of your sd card. Then follow these:

1. Boot into MAGLDR ( by holding the power button when you boot, hold it until u see the MAGLDR menu)

2. Go to the option, "AD Recovery". You will boot into the clockworkmod recovery

3. Wipe date and cache using the options. Also by going in the advanced menu, delete the dalvik cache as well.

4. then select the 'install zip from sdcard"

5. Navigate to the rom ( its the downloaded .zip file)

6. It will install and reboot the phone to use the new rom.

The Phone will be like new. U will access the welcome to android screens. All your dads google contacts and anything associated with the google account will be lost. All contacts, emails, settings etc will be deleted. U will be asked to make a gmail or use an existing one. All apps u installed will be lost. U can backup the apps using titanium backup. and the contacts can be saved on the sd card and then on to ur pc is u want to. It is suggested that you format the sd card as well before installing the rom. but im not sure about this.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the Goat:
I've successfully built and installed AOSP 4.2.1 for my galaxy nexus (toro verizon-LTE). But google doesn't have drivers for the camera or the gps hardware to download. So those things are not working at this point.

I gather that I need to extract these drivers from a factory image somehow. Then add them to my build environment so they can be included in the finished rom. But I haven't been able to figure this out.

I am not interested in downloading somebody else's prepared zip file to fix this. I'm looking for instructions for how to do this myself. (i.e. give a man a fish and feed him for a day, teach a man to fish feed him for a lifetime!)

Can anybody point me towards a how to that covers this? Or any other guidance?

you need to take a look at extract-files.sh/setup-makefiles.sh

i'm on maguro, but there's an extract-files.sh/setup-makefiles.sh for toro, i'm sure.

look:

you would have to diff ICS and JB for the extra files (shouldn't be too many, if any)

I have installed the rom of cfx_ace-4.2-BR11 & cfx_ace-4.2-SR1 and install all my apps, change my wallpaper and stuff, butt when I reboot my phone it resets to first installation (lose my wallpaper, my apps, and settings). Can someone help me with this? I really like this ROM.

Did you a Fullwipe before flashing the ROM?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tworan:
Yes I did full wipe, dalvek & cache
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teichopsia:
Download again. Flash rom. Reboot. Wait a few minutes. Do your settings, reboot, flash gapps, reboot.

Technically, it doesn't really matter in what order you do it (I believe it so), some people swear by x or y method. In short, you should be able to flash the rom and gapps without needing to reboot in between and without loosing anything. It's odd that you are. After flashing both of those then download your apps, that is, if you use gapps.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yauchildchew:
i wonder why when certain features are working on one release, some of those features can get problem in the next release?

what happened during the firmware/rom writing process?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
Things just break sometimes. It's not as easy as it seems to make a ROM with so many features by oneself. If you're talking about GPS not working since SR1, that specific issue was because synergye's source code hosting site BitBucket merged some of his code together and messed things up, and he had to sort that out to get it fixed. That's what I remember reading. GPS and Bluetooth will be working in the next release.

@OP -

Something is messed up in your wiping/flashing process. No one else has the issues you described, save for the wallpaper resetting on restart sometimes. Like Teichopsia said, wipe properly and reflash ROM and gapps. You might think you're wiping correctly, but you might be doing it all wrong. There are many guides on what constitutes a full wipe. Report back here if it still occurs after full wiping and re-flashing properly.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @gregkneitas:
First time trying anything like this on a smart phone. So tonight I did a "back to factory" restart to get the phone like it was when I opened it out of the box. Then I read about this ROM, and thought why not. So I rooted my phone, then installed the ROM. Everything went fairly smooth, and got the ROM working. My problem is I dont have a google play store app now, and I didnt sync anything, so I dont have any of my apps, nor do I have the ability to download them again. Any help with this?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
Flash gapps. Linked in cfX OP.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @gregkneitas:
I do have the gapps file downloaded. I just dont know how to get it on my phone and working. I used a ROM manager app for the ROM file.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
From recovery, same way you flashed the ROM (except for the full wipe part; don't wipe.)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @gregkneitas:
Like I said, I didnt flash the ROM, I used a ROM manager app.I dont know how to get to the recovery screen. Could someone please help me out with a step by step. Keep in mind vol down + power doesnt put my phone into recovery
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
You need to use "adb reboot recovery" from your computer. There are several good adb guides; check the Ace Think Tank link in my signature. Then, depending on your recovery, find the option that says something like "install zip from sdcard." Use it, navigate to your gapps, and select it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @gregkneitas:
Figured it out, thanks!

Next question is I downloaded Gmail App, and it wont sync with my account. I login, and everything but it just sits at the screen saying "Waiting for sync, your email will appear shortly" I've waited well over 10mins and no sync. Ideas?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
Have you set up your account in Settings? If you reboot between flashing the ROM and gapps you need to do that manually; it doesn't show a first boot thing.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @gregkneitas:
It appears I didnt. You solved the problem! Thanks a bunch. Sorry for all the questions.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @gregkneitas:
Ok last question, will adobe flash player work with this ROM? If so how can I get it. I search the market and the app isnt there. And its not on my phone either
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
4.2 in general doesn't support flash. You could try searching for the apk and sideloading it. Make sure you enable installation from unknown sources in Settings - Security.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yauchildchew:
So, when fixing one thing, the process could probably break some working features.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
Exactly.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tworan:
Ok so I watched a vid on how to full wipe, in the video the person did the same as me but in different order(probably not that important?)

I flashed another rom(sabsa prime V12.0) that one worked perfectly and today I flashed codefireX again and now it works. I don't get why it works now but I am happy it does work :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] topshelf95:
I was messing with a file cleaning app, an invasive one apparently, :o and after downloading the latest version of clean rom, I went into CWM to flash it. After doing the usual wiping, data, cache, etc, when I went to "choose zip from sd card" CWM told me it can't mount the external sd card so I had no access to the new rom I needed to flash and when I tried to reboot the phone got stuck at the boot logo. I had to boot back into CWM and restore a nandroid backup I had but even now when I boot back into CWM it is telling me that I still can't mount the ext sd card. Anyone have any idea what I may have done or how to fix it?

***EDIT*** I think I may have it figured out. I reflashed Clockworkmod and it seems to be working fine now.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoshiB1:
Hi Folks,

Tried to have a look for the answers to my questions but cannot find definitive answers.

I get my Note 2 Titanium tomorrow and am selling my iPhone 5 :)

Questions are:

1 - Are custom ROMs specific to carrier/network, if it's a US or International phone (UK for mine) or anything else?

2 - If ROMs are specific to carrier/network does this mean that I can install any ROM on my phone as I have purchased a SIM Free model that is not locked to a carrier/network?

3 - Also are backups for CWM or TWRP are saved on internal or SD memory? If the memory is formatted is there a measure that prevents the removal of this backup or will it be wiped also?

4 - Can someone confirm if you root the phone it voids the warranty. But if you return it to stock does it make the warranty valid again?

That's all the questions I have. Everything else is self-explanatory thanks to people who've posted guides and videos on how to root etc.

TIA.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adytum:
Roms are not carrier specific, apart from the ones with dedicated forums, it's the lte version and the Chinese versions that are different.

Backups are saved to sd card, a regular wipe doesn't delete them. Just copy them to an external sd to be on the safe side.

When you root and reboot recovery, the flash counter goes up. I think this voids the Samsung warranty. But it's easy to reset the flash counter and make it impossible to see that the device was modified with triangleaway. Some countries have specific consumer legislation, for instance in my country, where any electronic device has 2 year warranty, rooting the device does not void warranty unless it's proven that rooting is the direct cause of malfunction.

Hi all,

using all ressources I couldn't figure out if it's S3 specific, or related to android, or an issue of the A2DP devices, but:

I want to use my BT Speakers and another BT-receiver connected to my stereo simultaneously, so i can establish a realtime-multiroom-audio-setup without any (new) hardware.

I've read that someone did it with a pair of the new Logitech-receivers, using a macbook.

Unfortunately i can't find a setting or spec saying "max A2DP device count X" or anything.

Is this declared since a certain BT-Standard, maybe 3 or 4?

Would be happy to read something positive or at least pointing me to the right direction.
