[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] y0yerrj0sh:
I'm currently using 4.0 with stock kernel and i'm getting good battery, life the same as before.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] razorbackinspire:
I guess I should have asked how is the battery life as compared to the previous version(s) of the rom.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Something Creative:
I've actually found the battery to be a lot worse for me for the time being. I was getting killer battery life but now it's beyond awful. I don't necessarily think it's 4.0's fault, but i have something definitely going rogue and draining and can't seem to pin it on anything in particular. My two biggest drainers according to GSAM are "Android System" and "Kernel (Android OS)", so that's why I don't think it's a particular app or anything. This is since updating to 4.0.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] razorbackinspire:
Thanks for the reply. I'm gonna roll with this version bc I haven't seen anything in the new One that I can't live without and the battery life is kicking.

Tired of using App2SD all the time. I read I can increase internal memory with LINK2SD however I have some concerns especially about SD card degradation, phone performance et al. Are my concerns justified or I'm just being a luddite?

Also is it true that this app only works with unlocked bootloaders?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
Link 2 SD needs root mainly so no need for unlocked bl

And I've not come across any SD card degradation issue ....atleast not for me until now

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] garzie2000:
Will Nandroid backup work with this tool as there is a new partition involved?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] XDARhai:
As far as I'm concerned... in order to use this app you need to partition your SD Card. It doesn't have any negative effects on its life as long as you only partition it in FAT32/Ext2/3/4. But if you also make a Swap partition to increase your device's RAM, the part of the SD Card storing this partition will end up degrading its capacity. If you format the SD Card again and make only one partition in FAT32, there will be some memory that will be corrupted because of the Swap usage and, therefore, will be unusable, decreasing the capacity of the SD Card.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] garzie2000:
I don't intend on enabling SWAP as I know it degrades the SD CARD.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
No, you need not partition your SD card for using this app as such...!

I don't partition my SD card...

But yea as you told Swap decreases SD card life...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] garzie2000:
How do I set up my SD Card without partitioning it? A noob guide will be greatly appreciated

Hey,

i have problem with game called subway surfers. On my friend galaxy s2 it works excellent without any lags, but on my ONE S it lags like sh*t. I am using viper 1.2.1 rom. Maybe someone could recommend me better rom or any solution?

Try using Zarboz's custom kernel. You can overclock cpu settings as well as gpu settings if you flash it. You can also select an appropriate governor for performance.

Hi friends,

I'm new here and recently I'm having trouble in updating my Android device version from 2.1 to 2.3.7 in my Sony Ericsson X10 Mini.

Also, how to update it? Is there any resource that you feel informative please feel free to knock me by replying on my this thread...

And yet I'm unable to find a better Android updater for my device too...

I've also find that there is no update yet after 2.1 on Sony Ericsson Official Website. Is it true?

Thanks in advance...

yes, latest official update is 2.1 from sony

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EgoCity:
First Im a novice so I don't claim I know anything about exactly what changed.

I decided to try some Rom for my Samsung s3 and came across the resurrection remix Rom, which I loved. It had everything I wanted and looked perfect. My only issue is it changed something on my phone, although I have no idea what.

I know this as I play Legend of the Cryptids and my account was totally reset, this only happened on this Rom and once I changed it worked as normal on every other Rom.

Now to make multi accounts on the ios you must change the mac address in the game files but on the android it's different. I have searched files to no avail, used multiple apps to mask my phone Id but nothing works.

Something changed using this Rom that inadvertently changed something on my phone.

I would like to reuse this Rom but could anyone tell me how to change whatever changed to mask my phone?

I'm sorry if that didn't make since but basically I want to know what the Rom changes to my phoned id to make games think it's a different phone all together.

Thanks

I have a G2 rooted phone. It has custom recovery

I was running CM10 and decided to try a AOKP rom. As I have done before I did a Superwope. I then applied the rom zip. I then rebooted. The HTC screen popped up...then my screen went black. Phone had shut off

I powered back up and got the same results. So I pulled the battery and held volume and power to get to bootloader. It will not do a factory reset or anything else. It does say...no image or wrong image. So did I loose boot.img?

Any help is greatly appreciated

[Galaxy S III Mini General] jazzzy786:
Just saw the advert on the S3 mini on television. The advert shows the S3 throughout and then says the S3 phone is now available in a new mini size because not everyone wants a large screen. It sort of advertises the S3 mini as a small screen version of the s3 when everyone knows the two phones have nothing in common apart from looks. Very dodgy and misleading IMHO.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] MalekoUK:
It is a great phone (apart from the PPI), but I really don't think it should have been called the S3 Mini... For one there is nothing 'mini' about it, it's not even an inch smaller! Marketing, that's all it is.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Sn0w0nS:
They had to cal it s3 cheaper. Still i like the phone.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] blackknightavalon:
I'm surprised no one's selling carrier-locked versions of this phone here in the US. I figured they'd sell a few devices.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] vonuzu:
For the sales in USA Samsung had to play by apple's rules and dont offer this model to any carrier so they (apple) not to include the phone in the lawsuit in the USA. That's why all phones sold in USA are carrier free.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] kicker63:
They should sell all phones unlocked I reckon in the UK and Europe Then you can choose what carrier you want to use with your SIM's.

[Galaxy S III Mini General] SharpnShiny:
I completely agree. The Mini idea is good but any hint of inadequecy would be foolish money spent on advertising...Something like 'all the power of the S3 in palm of just one hand' that might work!! :good:
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Sn0w0nS:
I compared s3 mini screen with iphone 4s screen. Even tho s3 mini has less ppi i find it more beautiful the colors are much better.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] kaixis:
I TOTALLY agree! I had the iphone 4 which i gave away, and i have to say the s3 mini is SOOOO much better.

Also, i disagree with the first post. The mini with Jelly bean is as good as the s3 with ICS. Yes larger screen and therefore hogher ppi but in reality not much of a difference! AND HALF PRICE! The only thing i really miss is NFC. I just hope to equip it maybe through an NFC battery??? if possible of course.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] jazzzy786:
I really like the S3 mini. The dual core processor is as fast on the smaller screen as the quad core is on the bigger screen. The S3 mini in its own rights as a phone is a very good phone but it is not the S3 in a smaller case. The S3 has a faster CPU, faster GPU, better screen, better camera, more memory and lots more. Both phones need to have the same internals for it to truly be a s3 mini.

True!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nabil alami:
Hello everyone, so im a bit confused. I have my galaxy s i9000 and i flashed thousands of rom without caring knowing its flexible to get it back again, heck i soft bricked it like 5 times :p. Now my question is should i risk voiding my warranty and bricking my pime for rooting/flashing a rom on it. So i want to take your opinions on is it worth it( like for the galaxy s I had to do it to remove the stupid lag) but i dont have any lag on the prime, so should i risk it all??

Stay Cool :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jgrimoldy:
I'd hope that you'd be able to answer that question for yourself.

If you are unable to list several shortcomings and limitations of it being stock, then why are you even thinking of risking it?

Myself, I bought a Nook Color 18 months ago with the full intention of rooting. I wasted no time in doing so. Of course those things are virtually unbrickable.

The Transformer Prime, OTOH, well... not so much. I haven't felt a pressing need to unlock and flash the ROM.

Do what you will, but unless you can quickly rattle off at least half-a-dozen limitations of its current config, it seems like it's a waste of time to fiddle with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dekxster:
So, I'm in similar situation. I had 3 android phones and all rooted, unlocked and with custom roms, but with Prime it's different, I'm more affraid of bricking it, because it's more expensive than all of these phones together.

But I'm seriously thinking about it, the main reason is now ROOT (and it can stay for half-a-dozen reasons) because I'm running JB.

And the most annoying thing now is the camera. I have green camera bug on my Prime. Does anyone know from own experience, that this can be fixed after unlocking?

And sorry for my English ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
Can't say from experience as I've never had a camera problem, but I've read numerous posts and the green camera is always hardware. You may be able to verify by squeezing lightly around the camera and seeing if it clears up temporarily.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nabil alami:
Well i have some reasons to root it and i like to flash roms nd stuff mostly for fun, more like a hobby. but as you said this is like more precious and costs more especially after hearing bout asus' custom services that they wont be able to help if anything happens...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vaibha:
Well if u dont unlock bootloader thn there is no harm done.. It wont brick
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nabil alami:
Well then i cant do anything if i dont unlock it :p, Im on jb so unlocking it is the only way to access root etc. :/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vaibha:
Nope... Stay on ics rooted without unlocking bootloader..:p... Downgrade:D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nabil alami:
ohhh ok but i just love Jellybean and its smoothness :((
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thenrz:
I unlocked after letting my 1 year warranty expire. There aren't a ton of ROMs out there for the Prime atm, but it is worth it if you don't have a warranty to protect anyway.

The process of unlocking was painless for me. Downloaded the app, installed, it did its thing. I was on the newest JB OTA. No issues installing TWRP via fastboot.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dekxster:
Thats exactly my problem. For example the green camera bug (tested and it is hardware fault, only strange thing is, it started just after JB update). Let's be honest, Prime is not perfect and you can have some hardware issues, when warranty is quite useful.

@vaibha: And do you know any way how to downgrade from JB?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vaibha:
Just flash gingerbred or ics... Easy...

:eek:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dekxster:
Thanks for your detailed tutorial :D

I think there is no way (functional) for downgrading from JB to ICS. Or even gingerbread... on Prime?... :laugh: (I believe you just swapped GB and HC in your memory).

Of course I may be wrong, I hope I'm wrong. So you did you successfully downgrade? And if you did, how?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nabil alami:
Hahaha true, but im pretty sure you can downgrade the prime easily, manually download the software...to sd car...cont.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dekxster:
I thought so, but tried it and it doesn't work. There are 2 threads about it somewhere.

As it is written in another thread: "You cant revert back to the ICS bootloader once you have flashed the newer JB bootloader..."
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
Unless you have your Nvflash backups.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Dekxster, what subsonic says is right. You cannot downgrade to anything previous to jellybean if you haven't made nvflash backups while on ICS.

Also your green camera is 100 percent a hardware issue and if you haven't unlocked yet then return it for a free fix. If you are unlocked then you will normally have to pay but some people have got away with it. It all depends in what country you are in.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dekxster:
I figured this out, flumpster.

That is why I wrote, you can't downgrade, because I didn't make nvflash (I didn't post the rest of quotation, because I presumed, we don't have nvflash backup, if we are discussing about unlocking, which requires that) and that is why I wrote I don't want to unlock, because now I have hardware issue and they will fix it for free. I think I'll just wait one more year, when will my warranty expire, because who knows, what else might happen.

And are you guys using Hairy Bean? Is it good? Was it worth unlocking?

Because I don't know much about this rom, prefer CM on my phones.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thenrz:
Its worth unlocking if you are careful and dont mind risking hardware defect. A lot of people got a squaretrade or other 3rd party warranty. You can find a deal for $70 and get 2 years full protection...and then unlock without any risk what so ever.

Ok so what im asking for isnt to be told to try this rom or that rom cos ive tried them all.

So heres what ive tried so far pandorium rom which had the perfect look that I was after jb domination theme ! But ive had to many problems with it ie signal strength and loss and apps acting like ive just installed them and having to keep setting them up.

So im currently running a stock rom that has been pre rooted and deodexed as I need stability as im a heavy user getting through 1 and a half batterys a day.

So I think the best thing is to just theme a stock rom to look like pure Google look but still have a solid rom right?

So how and which theme will work?

Im not really bothered about system tweaks and this that and the other just a solid good looking rom!
