is it an impossibility to take a 4.2 base and add touch wiz UI for GS3?

[Q] Advice/Help on removing "locked" or un-uninstallable apps that I do not want

Ok, so.... Flashed CM 10.1. Did not like it at all. I have always been happy with the stock rom and realized through this process that what I really wanted was a stock ROM that I could remove all the nonsense that is imbedded and that runs and drains my battery life. I want to have complete control over my OS.

So, my main question is: Having read differing opinions on how to remove the so called bloatware(I like some of the stuff that is built in), what is the best way to go about it?

I obviously can root and flash my phone and can install CWM and have Odin installed and have done all that stuff. What I am looking for is a complete solution/method to removing the apps that I do not want. A lot of times the so called bloatware free ROMS have taken out too much and do not have what I am looking for so I am almost looking to create a custom stock ROM in a way by being able to delete the stuff that I do not use at all.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jasvncnt1:
Do you use Titanium Backup?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
This.

You can flash the bloated version of your carrier's rom, get root and use Titanium Backup to either uninstall or freeze (paid version) the apps you don't want.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] somerandomguy2:
Thanks! Done. Exactly what I needed.

Had already reverted back to the bloated version with something like this in mind and actually paid for the pro version. I think this is the first time I've ever paid for an app.

Now to make a list of all the things running that I don't need/use and uninstall them.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] shishimaru1000:
Disable sync when you don't need it, disable wifi or 3g (when you don't need them, again), set min CPU at 122MHz and use Conservative governor; set Performance or SmartassV2 only when you know you need a responsive phone. Set 2G even when data is disabled.

Anyother tweak which really improves battery life like any flashable zip or anything like that?????

During night switch on airplane mod

and choose power save governor at 122mhz .

By this the battery increases upto 10%.!

when trying the htc dev bootloader did you get as far as unlocking your bootloader? if you did you need to relock it. also when you type "adb devices" do you get "emulator-5554 device" has it always done that? you should get a serial # not an emulator, and the first command

adb shell cat /dev/msm_rotator

if you get anything but

/dev/msm_rotator: invalid length

this guide wont work until this is fixed so no point going further
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smhtcdz:
- fastboot devices is giving me the serial no but with adb i'm not getting it.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Good, don't unlock with fastboot, htc offial unlock is garbage if you can get true soff

Get rid of the emulator, turn it off, uninstall whatever, you don't need it unless your a developer and I'm guessing your not

Adb is only detecting the emulator not your phone, either bad drivers, bad usb, debugging turned off, I don't know what your missing but you need to get adb working right. If fastboot is working then chances are you have it installed on computer, make sure you either add a path in enviromental variables or change directories to the place you have adb.exe and fastboot.exe installed, normally platform-tools

Debugging has to be turned on, phone needs to be booted into os and not connected as a storage device, you need to trouble shoot your adb issue or you won't go any further, I suggest a guide on installing adb correctly, I made one for fastboot back when (same concept) if your having trouble I can link you that guide or one of the many other ones

Just bought an LT25i, need to transfer the following data from the Nexus to my new LT25i Xperia V.

The Nexus has no sdcard slot so I have to backup to my pc.

Please tell me how to transfer the following data to my LT25i:

1. Seleted user apps and the apps external data, yes with market links.

2. sms, contacts
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Use a third party so from the market. Airdroid, Titanium Backup, myphoneexplorer or sms backup are a few examples of them.

Sent from my LT30p xda premium app.

How do I customise the signature on xda premium app?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sunny7day:
Thanks but can you give me more detail?

I am facing the following difficulties:

1. The Nexus has no sdcard slot and the internal memory is out of space, need to backup the data to my PC.

2. Do I need to root the LT25i? Now sure how to do that to my phone.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] cartmenicus:
Uplaod stuff to a cloud host? Would something like that work
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
All of those apps either use storage on your PC or on your google account. Install them and follow the instructions.

As far as I know only titanium backup requires root access, the others do not.

There is no need for a SDcard as all data is transfered via wifi, usb cable, bluetooth or 3g....
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sunny7day:
Does any of these program can backup app external data also? Like game savings? And market links?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Titanium backup can, not sure about airdroid.

However, if you have a recovery installed make a nandroid and you can try to restore the data partion on the new phone, however, often restoring those kind of settings will make the phone buggy,

As for market links, just restore the apps using titanium or airdroid, or myphoneexplorer or any of the vast other apps that do this and then google play will automatically pick up the links....

Please just have a go at doing it, then ask questions about any problems
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sunny7day:
the Xperia V can't even root how can I restore app+data and market links with Titanium backup??

i did but it require flashing a japanese rom.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
once you have root, you can flash another FTF and follow the instructions to keep root.

Please have a go at doing this first before posting again, you are asking questions that you may find the answer to yourself if you try it.

You will not lose any data ob your old phone so why not just try any of the numerous solutions I have offered and then ask about issues.

Is there any X2 ROM out there Android 3.0 or higher with working HDMI (BOTH video AND audio) ??

[Motorola Droid X2] gemignani:
i have the same issue as you, i tried sotmax but it doesn't work

[Motorola Droid X2] Cheapxj:
you can still get audio out of the 3.5, and any monitor/TV that actually has decent speakers has an external audio input for one of the HDMI ports anyway.

if you absolutely MUST have audio over the HDMI connection and ICS/JB, just get one of these http://www.cypeurope.com/Audience/AU-11CA-HDMI-Audio-Embedder-with-built-in-Repeater.html and a 3.5mm to stereo RCA cable. done and done.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I think it's a driver issue with Win8 a lot of people are having issues unless they are using Win8 Pro
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] realchinky:
The driver issues are only if you have a new Windows 8 Device. If upgraded from 7 to 8 Pro, you should be able to root and use the drivers, if you had them installed in your previous version of Windows. (Unless you do a clean factory reset of the Windows 8 device when installing Windows 8 Pro. That just f**ks up everything that has to do with Android.)

So to answer OP's question, find a Win7, or hell I say it Vista computer and have a blast. Unless Microsoft wants to release a patch to this, then you're basically screwed if Windows 8 is the only option in your house/office.

what should I do?

I have a HTC Droid incredible 4g with an upgrade available in 15 days

I like the Note 2, but im not sure what to do

I like the Droid DNA

I like Maxx HD

and the S3

and when will the next ig thing come out?

can someone help with my upgrade?:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xXJay_RXx:
Note 2. The Incredible and DNA don't compare. The phone has a 3100mAh battery. The Maxx HD is good but if you can handle the size of the Note 2, I'd go for it. But its better if you go into the store to try it out, see if you can handle the size. If not, you got 15 days to swap it out with another phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Benjamin150:
Agree with this completely.

In terms of an all around package, the Note 2 takes all in terms of the nice screen, great battery, and amazing features no other phone has.

Otherwise, though I'm not a fan of the RAZR line personally(I hate the design), get the Maxx HD. Good screen, good battery life, and the OS is pretty close to stock Android.

The screen on the DNA is cool(I'm a pixel lover). But decent battery and I hate Sense with a passion.. Seriously, wanna puke when I look at it lol. But yeah, I'd never get it due to the battery and sense. The hardware design is nice, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
Just had my update on the 13th. I was torn between DNA and Note II.

In the end, I had to go with a removable battery and an SD card, even though I felt the phones were pretty much even. Didn't think I would ever use the S-Pen.

Turns out, after only a few days, I love the s-pen functionality. I use it on the calendar during business meetings, and to jot down a couple of quick notes. And, man is it a fast phone!

I have no intention of swapping it out (of course, I've already unlocked, rooted and Beans' Rommed it!)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eraursls1984:
Note 2, unless it's to big, then wait a for a S4. I'd stay away from the DNA, and I'm over Motorola. I stuck with Motorola until the Note 2 and it'll take a lot for them to win me back.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shill1986:
Note 2. DNA has a nice screen, big deal. Maxx

Is ok but the main aspect is gorilla glass, kevlar back, big battery. Throw an otterbox on the note 2 and boom, matched. All around features, propietary and otherwise, plus JB, Note 2 only! If the Note 2 is too big for you, psssh yeah right, then go S3. Solid phone. I mean, they're all decent, of course, really comes down to personal taste. Hit up a store and hold them all, play with then all, get a better idea for yourself. You'll regret not getting a GN2, though ;)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Hey, I might add some of the terms and what they mean to the FAQ thread. :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jt323bd:
Am I getting it? or am I wasting my time.? I feel like some of this is for advanced root users only, (like maybe flashing just a modem while using older releases ROMS) and some of this is for beginners only, like one-clicks. I'd love if somebody made just 3 very simple, very useful beginner wikis/stickies. ONE is a 'terminology' post, like the one I've haphazardly attempted to put together above. TWO is an "everybody knows you're supposed to blah blah blah" post, for things like mobile odin and modems, making a backup, how to stick to the basics if you're new, not flashing backwards with ROMs, and knowing how to recover back to warranty eligible stock (odin counter and everything), finally THIRD would be the thread that explains how to do each of the different kinds of flashes, but not just instructions, but what it means to do them.

I've combed through these threads for a day straight and I've got more questions than I started with.

So, if someone doesn't want to put these together, Questions I'd love to know definitive answers to, so this thread can continue to be helpful to others....

A) If I flash anything, or everything, a hundred times, ROMs, modems, kernels, recoveries, roots, can I find a stock release of whatever-is-current-OTA to flash and then use TriangleAway to reset everything back to warrenty elligible? if not, what about the USB jig? Is this even possible.... If so...

B) Since my phone is not rooted now (first timer), Am I able to make a complete backup of my phone un-rooted so I can flash back to it if I ever need to become warrenty elligible again. If so, do I use nandroid, or titanium backup? don't both of these require root? Can I flash back to undetectable stock?

C) obviously, disclaimers everywhere show that it is never safe to flash anything, everything is at your own risk, but is there a general rule of thumb for whether a stock release is more reliable than a customized ROM. or do ROMs tend to be more stable with problems fixed.

D) Does a phone need to be already rooted, (or already flashed up to a release number or with a release modem) in order to flash a ROM onto it, or does it just require Odin and the TAR. Is a ROM a TAR? is a ROM a Kernel? or does a phone need to be rooted to some version first, then using CWM to load a same-version ROM?
