[Milestone 2 General] Agmenor:
Hello everyone,

I am running CyanogenMod 10 (Android 4.1.2) from Tezet. The exact version number is 10-20121228-NIGHTLY-milestone2.

I just switched to the French operator Free Mobile. They offer access to their "FreeWifi_secure" wifi network in the plan. The authentication method is known as EAP-SIM ; it connects using information in the SIM card. However, this option is not given when you try to connect using the "Settings" app in Android.

So I tried to connect to the FreeWifi_secure wifi by modifying the following file :

/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

This method is explained on another thread of XDA : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1660397. I managed to follow the instructions but still cannot connect to the wifi network. FreeWifi_secure is correctly displayed as a favorite network, however, when trying to connect, it never goes past the "Connecting…" step.

Do you know whether the Milestone 2 is hardwarewise compatible with EAP-SIM ? Or is the incompatibility due to a limitation in CyanogenMod ? Have you personally managed to use the Free Mobile wifi network ?

Thanks a lot !
[Milestone 2 General] Agmenor:
I contacted Motorola's customer support and they told me that none of their phones were compatible with EAP-SIM, unfortunately.

I'm looking for jelly bean roms that support i9000b, most of them mention that they support i9000 without any mention to the different i9000 subsets.

Currently running Helly bean im interested to try Slim Bean but couldn't ask if they suppoort i9000b in the corresponding forum as I didn't have enough privileges for posting there.

Could you please recommend ROMS for i9000b?

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maigre:
I have a Nexus 7 and get all the virtues of having a Nexus device with its always up to date OS and easier rootability, compared to one with all the carrier bloatware and spying stuff, etc.

What I wonder is, since I have to use an AT&T or T-Mobile account, what other advantages and disadvantages are there? I'm not referring to the Nexus 4 vs. some specific Samsung or HTC phone, which camera is better, etc., as much as I am to a contract-free Nexus phone compared to all carrier subsidized phones in general. In other words, the nature of the service.

One negative is that there's no LTE with the Nexus 4. I could use a hotspot to get that, but that's kind of a pain in the butt and it's going to be wasted money if I have to buy a data plan just to use the N4, anyway. In an urban area, are broadband speeds 3G slow? I've read that it can be faster than that here and there.

Am I roped into buying one of the standard data plans from these carriers so that I can use the device? Since there would be no contract, would the pricing be different? Since the N4 doesn't have the provider and manufacturer software added, does it give me a little more privacy in the sense that I'm not tracked quite as meticulously? Or is that not even at all the case?

Any comparative information about the N4 vs. carrier subsidized phones would be appreciated.

Does it work?
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
Search the threads this was asked and answered.

Cliff notes yes it does!
[HTC Amaze 4G] lamortcroix:
Yes!! Only problem I had was when I pit it in the first time my Amaze wanted to format it. I was using a sense 4 ROM at the time I believe.

This an accessory so it belonged in the accessories thread.
[Nexus 10 General] Fasty12:
Reading from various articles and comments from users it seems that

1) There seems to be a bit of dropped frames and stuttering.

2) The GPU sometimes struggle to handle the high res.

Is this the case? How smooth would you say it is really 90% of the time?
[Nexus 10 General] Rodeojones:
I have no issues with lag or studdering, save for the occasional hiccup when I used Chrome. I simply installed AOSP browser and all is well.
[Nexus 10 General] CDL0012:
Can u install the aosp browser on the stock Tom?
[Nexus 10 General] digitalrelic:
90% of the time it's literally as smooth as the definition of the word 'smooth' can be. Literally couldn't be any smoother.
[Nexus 10 General] Fidelator:
The ONLY time it isn't 60 frames per second smooth are when you are either using chrome or hitting a throttling point when posting an intensive game, hopefully the lat err well be fixed.
[Nexus 10 General] jonstrong:
+1, except for my purposes this is a conservative figure. I've been using this heavily for a few weeks, and it's been incredibly smooth about 98% of the time. Handles beautifully, battery life has been great, and I keep thinking of more ways to use it in place of clunkier pieces of tech. One of the best purchases I've made in a long time.
[Nexus 10 General] sfobrien:
Had it about 24 hours now and it is very smooth.
[Nexus 10 General] codewisp:
It's probably the smoothest device ever when it is smooth. All of the tasks I do, it handles well. Games like NBA Jam, Anomaly Warzone, etc.. have no problems at all (I've seen more intensive games in YouTube, but those aren't particularly my type so..). I'd say about 95% of the time it is darn smooth, way smoother than when I got my GNex out of the box. The 5% isn't 'stuttery' or 'laggy' -- the device becomes crippled to the point that you sleep it and it won't come back on anymore and you'd have to force a reboot. This happens mostly with Chrome.
[Nexus 10 General] Jotokun:
Its like butter the majority of the time. Do yourself a favor, dont use chrome and disable Google Currents. Then try to find a faster tablet on the market right now. You wont.
[Nexus 10 General] italia0101:
Install ktmanta kernel and its even smoother using his governor . also you can change the the thermal limits ..

No more throttling so far :)
[Nexus 10 General] Rodeojones:
I assume you meant stock ROM and got auto corrected. But yes, its possible to install AOSP browser on the stock ROM. I've done it on my N10. You'll obviously need to be rooted, as you need to copy the apk to system/apps.
[Nexus 10 General] toricred:
I recently discovered Ocean Browser courtesy of this forum. That really made this tablet the smothest computer I've ever seen.
[Nexus 10 General] EvoYas:
Its buttery smooth, just srsly dont use Chrome on it as of yet, such a let down, froze ny tab twice. :(

Got paranoid on it now and im happy with it.
[Nexus 10 General] bobcat255:
It's pretty smooth, but not Nexus 4 smooth. If you're just kind of using it lackadaisically then it's very smooth. However, once you start going all Bruce Lee in it, you'll notice the stuttering and dropped frames. I'm not complaining - I like multitasking, but there's certainly room for improvement.

Maybe I see it more because I have multiple accounts (which is a buggy right now) and both accounts are eating up a lot of memory?

EDIT: By the way, I use Chrome and like how it works - that may be a contributor based on what everyone is saying. Having said that, Chrome seems to work really well on my N4. It's not the fastest browser, but it's fast enough and I like how it functions.
[Nexus 10 General] Fasty12:
Please define "bruce lee". Is it when you play a game? When you have multiple apps opened? when you are using the mulitasking menu? Youtube?
[Nexus 10 General] bobcat255:
Yes, multiple apps, multitasking. Again, don't forget that my wife has her own account so that may contribute to it.

Ironically, I just spent ~5-mins (after a fresh boot) trying to recreate the stutter without using Chrome and found it a bit harder than I thought ;).

Here's what I did:

- Open Dolphin -> Load The Verge

- Open BeyondPod -> Just scrolled through the updates

- Open YouTube -> Watched a review for 10 seconds

- Open JustPictures! -> Click SmugMug account -> Noticed some stuttering loading initial thumbnails (smooth after that)

- Hit Home Key -> Swipe to reveal another desktop -> Some lag getting to the other desktop, same thing going back.. .cleared up after 2-3 swipes back/forth

TBH it wasn't terrible and not worth complaining about, but this is also after a fresh boot. After hours of my wife using it in her account and me using it in mine, I notice these things a bit more often.

It's probably worth noting I may be overly critical since I'm pissed about some of the glitches which happen in the tablet (i.e. apps crashing in the main account, unknown reboots, etc). When trying to recreate the problem the tablet was actually damn smooth - I surprised myself ;)
[Nexus 10 General] doughz:
Cool
[Nexus 10 General] bobcat255:
Alright... I've been using the n10 for at least an hour now. My wife was using it previously to play songs to our son, etc. It definitely stutters and lags somewhat often. Just strolling posts up and down in Tapatalk HD it stutters/skips frames. Could be a poorly written app? Maybe, but it's a white screen with nothing but a bit of text. So yeah, I stand by what I said originally.

Full disclosure, I did use Chrome, but I'm not evaluating smoothness in that app, nor immediately after it.
[Nexus 10 General] jonstrong:
I use tapatalk on my Gnex, and the HD beta on my N10. The lag you're describing appears to me to be associated with the way the app must retrieve messages to display. Unlike a web page that is fetched completely, it appears that tapatalk is fetching a group of messages at a time...essentially on demand message retrieval. I attribute the lag to the app having to request the next group of messages before it can scroll down and display them.

Not 100% positive about this, but it seems likely to me. Aside from this and the occasional chrome seize up, I have no lagging with my N10.

[Nexus 10 General] bobcat255:
Thanks for your reply... The tablet was fine since last night, but after I posted, went into Chrome and it froze causing a reboot. I'm going to live w/out Chrome for a while and see if that's more of a culprit than I give it credit for.

By the way I think you're wrong about tapatalk. Even if it does work as you describe, then after loading, I should be able to scroll up/down without the frame skips, yet that's not the case.
[Nexus 10 General] jonstrong:
Unfortunately, unless the Tapatalk devs shed some light on this, it's all speculation on our part. Your assumption that the messages are loaded and remain in memory, which should facilitate smooth scrolling, is a nice idea, but the devs have to make choices about how much is pre-fetched, how much is cached, when content is flushed from the cache, etc. The app can support a large number of forum subscriptions at any given time, as well as multiple sub forum and thread subscriptions. The decisions related to content preloading and cache flushing have to juggle consideration of providing the best overall performance across the entire app without it becoming a monstrous memory hog.

[Nexus 10 General] NickTheMajin:
You know, I really hope this is software but this tablet (mine anyway I can't vouch for anyone elses) is extremely choppy. Now its not always choppy. However, if I have more than say, 6 applications open the home screen begins to drop frames. And what is more annoying than that, is if I use the browser (Using the AOSP browser) for any length of time and then go back to the home screen, the home screen actually reloads, so it will appear blank for a few seconds before the icons and widgets load in. Sometimes the animations will be choppy. Switching between apps, that animation will drop several frames. Games are also very choppy. Need For Speed Most Wanted does not run at a stable framerate for me nor does Dead Trigger on maxed out settings.

This will likely be my last Google tablet. The fact that the Nexus 10 stock is so broken is mind blowing. Before I rooted it I was getting upwards of 5 reboots a day. I gave it to my girlfriend to use for one of her class assignments and she told me it rebooted six times in one hour while she was flipping through tabs in the AOSP browser. Completely unacceptable for a flagship device and left a very sour taste in my mouth. I had an iPad 3 before this with no issues other than that it was an iPad and I hate using iOS :laugh:. But i'd take that if it meant a functional experience out of the box.

This guys video is actually exactly how mine looks. He is using Chrome however which is a big nono. Skip to like 10min

[Nexus 10 General] deathshead:
So where are you guys seeing freezing? I just set mine up last night, Its smoking fast,

Albeit, Chrome does not seem as quick as Ocean browser so I stuck with that.

(Ocean Browser appears to be built off the AOSP browser)

Aside the this browser crashing when trying to go fullscreen on a flash video the experience has me pretty excited to use it.

The more I used the N10 the more I started loving it.

I did have a xoom before and performance was terrible, I ended up selling it for an ipad2.

But coming back to the N10, website scrolling can get TOO fast sometimes.

I really wish Chrome would get better, on the my ngex its great, renders pages better than aosp, etc.

just needs more tweaking and quick controls.

My gripe is the light leak issue, bottom right corner. But I really dont feel like dicking around with RMAs, we need

to make this a priority and have google adress it.
[Nexus 10 General] NickTheMajin:
Luckily my freezing and rebooting went away right after flashing a new rom. I'm not sure why it was so terrible on the stock rom. I wiped data and started from scratch twice before I rooted. I usually rebooted switching tabs in Dolphin or Ocean, opening youtube videos or switching apps. It was literally 4+ per day before I flashed a rom.
[Nexus 10 General] Fasty12:
But what about the lag man! Is it gone?
[Nexus 10 General] NickTheMajin:
For me no. Many people may not notice it because they're used to Android. I didn't notice lag at all until I got my iPad 3. I've since gotten a Note 2 and I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, zero lag on the thing :laugh:. I really thought Google had gotten it worked out with Jelly Bean so I sold my iPad for a Nexus 10 because screw iOS and sadly it lags on the home screen and games definitely do not run at 60fps. There are also less effects on many android games than the iOS counterparts. Granted I am not a touchscreen gamer so I don't care about game performance quite as much but Homescreen reloads and animation lags really irk me. I'm sure its down to software though. 4.2 is quite buggy.

Oh and every browser I tried was laggy as hell except Ocean until I rooted and got the AOSP browser. Dolphin, Boat Browser, Firefox, Chrome etc were all terribly laggy at pinching to zoom (Chrome being the worst). Ocean was a godsend when I found it.

Just how broken this tablet was when I first got it back in November left an awful sour taste in my mouth. The reboots, the lag and the stock browser were all pitiful as was the fact that Samsung had zero accessories at launch (And even now) for this guy. Since then, the reboots are fixed and the stock browser replaced but goddammit this is a flagship android device and should not have needed rooting and romming to fix a problem that should not have been there in the first place. If Apple's iPad had random reboot problems 4+ times a day all hell would break loose.

Now if the lag issue is fixed and Samsung actually releases a cover for this thing I will be stoked.
[Nexus 10 General] NIK516:
Its not smooth in all apps , it jumps and jitters in the xda premium app for example, its not smooth in chrome even dolphin browser will slow and stick in some points, but other apps like flipboard and stumble upon and Google plus are smooth but not as smooth as iOS , you know like a thin piece of paper floating on water smooth.
[Nexus 10 General] Fasty12:
Does it drop frame when opening and closing apps?
[Nexus 10 General] NickTheMajin:
Not all the time. Its an occasional thing. It happens often enough for me to notice it.
[Nexus 10 General] vxxda:
The smoothest andorid device
[Nexus 10 General] thecremeegg:
Mine is pretty appalling for lag, can't play ANY game with a decent framerate and it will judder just swiping left and right if you have more than 1 app open. It's going back mainly for the appalling light bleed but I'm not that impressed so far :(

Follow the Guide Above.

It'll take you some very frustrating hours to master it , but you'll get through and learn like the rest of us.

After installing the drivers , it is relatively easy.

If you brick your device , don't panic. It won't die unless it has hardware damage (Which is hard to get apparently)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1942836

Follow the guide above , if you can't enter download mode. (Hardbrick)

Good Luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kjacw:
I am really curious about this.Maybe some can help me understand this in somewhat laymen terms. I and somewhat knowledgeable of the Android system. I have a Verizon Fascinate. I have installed the wrong Rom package on it and it was bricked to such a degree that I needed to find the basic Stock package DI01 and flash back to Stock,but it doesn't break the phone like the Note i717. I also have an Xoom. I have also installed something that wasn't correct and it was stuck on the Motorola screen f( I'm guessing bricked ) and again at that point I needed to find the Stock package to flash but the Note was useless after the brick.

I hope someone can help me with this one. I really feel terrible about bricking my Note i717 having to send it to be JTAGged.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
What is your question ??

you need JTAG info ??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kjacw:
My question is why is the Note easily bricked and useless after that but the others that I have mentioned above and perhaps other phones, are not so useless after brick.

My son has a Note ii. He bricked his but was able to regain a flash by booting in DL or Recovery mode. I would like to know why is that so. Maybe others out there also would like to know.

That is my query.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Samsung products break when you flash the wrong rom. Its news to me that other devices survive that error.

But for all phones, brick is brick, and that is from incorrect roms. Everything else isn't brick.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
Given the fact that you have bricked more than one device, you might want to learn some more about your devices before you keep flashing things onto them...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MoJoe277:
Couldn't agree more. I would have kept that information to myself.

I don't see much point of this. It's like asking why did my screen break so easily when I hit it with a hammer?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kjacw:
Well I didn't create the thread to be picked apart, I was just curious as to why it was so easy to brick my Note and it be useless as opposed to some kinda of software imposed to help Noters. I am not writing here to be picked apart and I really do not appreciate this kind of action. I am just trying to get information. This is a Question and Answer forum and I was asking a question maybe a stupid question albeit a question to know why it was so easy to brick the Note and render it useless where as other cell phones when flashed with the wrong information can still be put in the DL Mode and flashed Stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MoJoe277:
OK... I'll give you an answer. First, what you've experienced with your other devices is not considered as " bricking" them, maybe a " soft brick" but not a real true brick. This term (brick) is being used way too often and improperly. When you flash something like a simple mod incorrectly and it causes bootloops, freezing on boot screen, etc, this is not a brick. If you flash something major like a rom that is not for your device and completely shuts down your phone with no life what so ever, this is a brick. This phone is not any easier to brick than any other phone. Companies can only do so much to keep their users from screwing up their devices. Maybe my previous post was a bit harsh.... But considering the nature of this thread and your op, it's a little hard not to point out the obvious. If you researched properly as directed in just about every thread in xda, you wouldn't be asking the question you're asking because you would not have a bricked phone right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
I agree with the post above mine ...

Damaging this device is virtually impossible given the JTAG option.

Many other devices do not share that luxury.

The note would then be considered much harder to brick, or at least unbrick after major firmware damage has occured.

And yes, please familiarized yourself with the terms, and read every action 5 times over before Modding a $700.00 device .IMHO ...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kjacw:
Well my error was not that I didn't read and research. I think my error was that I was trying to flash the "LiquidSmooth" Rom on my note and I was following the instructions that was given specifically for my phone Note i717 and in the instructions there was a dl link for that rom, which I did but it was not from this forum. I think that was my error not as a result of being lazy and wanting something for nothing.

Thanks for the info. I was a bit curious about bricking.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MoJoe277:
Well, that error has been repeated by several people here recently. The version you downloaded and installed was most likely for the galaxy s3. The one you should have downloaded says "quincy" in the file name.
