[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zorachus:
I have to say I am pretty happy with cleanROM and my themes + Nova. Looks just like a Nexus now.

I do love AOSP, and sure it would be faster than Touchwiz ROM's, but I think I will hold off on those till next month, just reading there are few little bugs or minor issues still in these AOSP ROM's. I think another few weeks or month they be ironed out, and good to go.

I would switch to AOSP if its like crazy faster performance over Touchwiz ? If benchmark shows like night and day faster. Is it ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlackPhantomX:
I wouldn't call out timelines, but I guarantee you that in a matter of a little over a week, the developers made giant strides to how it is now, which is near perfect. Sure, there's minor bugs, but nothing people can't live with. They're very minor, and most people who complain about certain supposed quirks either complain just to complain (I see them as people who can never be pleased), or haven't explored their settings long enough to realize what they're complaining about, whether something seems missing to them or isn't adjusted to the way they want, is right in front of them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zorachus:
You are tempting me to try out AOSP :) Sorry I didn't mean to put a timeline out there, I am sure the good ones are stable and good enough as daily's.

I really am tempted by all these AOSP ROM's. But then with AOSP I lose the S-Pen features. Are the AOSP that much faster and smoother than Touchwiz ROM's, or not really ? Right now with Nova launcher mods + themes my phone looks almost like a Nexus already, is it worth it going to full AOSP ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlackPhantomX:
As I recall, some of the ROMs have Nova Launcher included. I'm not sure how a Nexus looks, but I would say it's not too different.

And yes, as I said before, AOSP (and even AOKP) is faster than stock. It's because it gets rid of the bloatware. As for S-Pen features, it depends on you and what you like. Apparently airview and the like won't be available unless someone ports it over, but S Notes can be replicated with another app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] spawn50ak49:
Why not do a nandroid backup and flash a CM10.1 ROM and take it for a spin. You can always go back to your backup. I prefer running CM10.1. simple powerful interface and great performance. Touchwiz is to bulky and if you want spen apps pypirus is a great option
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] g2tegg:
I get better battery life and performance out of TW ROMs. I'm running JediX9 with the provided kernel with amazing results. Plus it has the spen features.

I try CM10.1 once in a while and always go back to Jedi.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ViciousMo:
My biggest gripe on CM right now is audio. Incall audio and speaker volume are poor opposed to TW. I talk on the phone quite a bit and I can tell the difference noticeably. It will get ironed out, and I will be on CM for good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] theraker007:
I'm running the asylum aosp ROM and I'm having the best performance of any ROM I've tried to date, but on both in benchmark and subjective feel. I do find myself missing touch work tremendously though with some of its features. But I so love that my group messages workwwithout having to install a crappy third party messaging app.

As far as battery life, for me, the difference is negligible.

Hi guys,

when my phone turn on the HTC logo apears then white screen fades grey... then nothin when i boot in recovery mode this is what i get

View attachment 1681606

i have searched and i guess i havent found my solution coz am novice please help me on this....

thanks in advance for the help..
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
What have you done so far? That is not recovery, it is the boot loader.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gman231:
It was initially stock on a different menu with the volume bottons inactive, i could only enter hboot, i downloaded a PD98IMG but it wasn't the right version for my hard ware but atleast it got me to the boot loader menu with the volume bottons working.

Your post had alot of useful info but nothin that could help me out of my current situation, I really need HELP guys
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
What happens when you navigate to "Recovery" (with the volume buttons) and select it (with the power button)? Are you S-OFF or unlocked?
[HTC Inspire 4G] sashank:
Apparently not. His bootloader is S-ON and doesn't display 'unlocked' like it would if he used HTCdev. I guess he was running fully stock. Don't know what could be the cause of his problem, but I think flashing an RUU should be enough to fix it, no?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
Ah, my bad. Didn't see that picture.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gman231:
well as you said i am S-ON i tried searching for RUU to fix the problem but when it loads it says no valid image found can you from the specification of my bootloader give me a link to a valid RUU for my phone..???

thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
If the file is correctly named PD98IMG.zip, it is located in the root of your sdcard and you get that message, then your sdcard might be corrupted...try using a different one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sashank:
Rather than the PD98IMG.zip method, use an RUU exe file (2 links below, whichever works). Connect your phone to PC in bootloader mode, then run the exe and wait till it's fully finished.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Gman231:
Hi guys sorry for being a pain in the butt, i have downloaded the RUU in sashank's post but i couldnt get my PC to find my phone, drivers problem i thought i have downloaded HTC sync for the drivers and another package of driver but nothin still cant find the phone... dont know what to do

for the PD98IMG.zip method i guess if i find a valid file i could suceed to fix my phone i already have two SDcards ready for this but how do i know i have a valid PD98IMG.zip file

HELP
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
He is linking an .exe file. You need to boot in hboot, plug the phone and choose fastboot (you should see fastboot usb in red). From there you run the .exe file and everything should be working fine.

EDIT: Make sure that you install the drivers with the phone unplugged.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gman231:
Hello glevitan your info helped me execute the file in sashank link, thanks guys but unfortunately it didn't work i got an error on the software wrong model and on the phone wrong RUU... the file i downloaded was "RUU_Ace_Sense" i guess a diffrent version may work as the process it self works fine just the file error if any one could help me with a link to a diff RUU that corresponds to my HTP Inspire 4G (at&t version)
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Gman, what Android version were you running? The latest att update?

Hi.

I have an image burn onto the screen. How do I get rid of it? Will it go away eventually? How do I prevent it from happening again?

Device is Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 p3113
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
Lcd should not burn in.... does it look like clouds? I once froze an lcd screen by leaving it in sub zero temps....it was permanent damage but looked like a soft cloud behind the image.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k@iserex:
I have seen LCDs whit image burn effect even dough I tought only plasma screens are affected whit image retention, if its badly burned I dont think youll be able to get rid of it all. On plasmas you could use specal moving images for washing burn in, you could google that and try.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.stay:
It's burned in. The address bar with the url is visible. I see it when I change the pages and on the lock screen. It's light but visible still. I need to get rid of it because it's an embarrassing url for people to see.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
So you can see this when the device is off?? If somehow you have a stuck pixel problem sometimes s a forceful push will bring them back to life. Not that I recommend that... googling lcd burn in This is a phenomenon I am not familiar with and still amazed is possible.

Edit: google says it happens some sort of dead pixel phenomenon

Apple suggests an all white screen for hours on end with backlight low..

Another person suggested a very graphic intensive screensaver over night.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.stay:
No, you can't see it when the device is off. You can see it only when the device is on. I think it's starting to fade a little. I could see it still but not as strong as it was before. Hopefully it'll be gone soon.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.stay:
Update: The burned image is gone.

HI all,

Sorry for hijacking the thread, but I thought this is an appropriate thread for the problem I am seeing. I am attaching a picture of my screen.

Do you think this is a hardware problem / screen burn? or is it something that can be solved by reinstalling the firmware?

Your help is much appreciated

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skipjacks:
That definitely looks like a hardware problem. Software problems wouldn't have a faded edge to the error like that.

my galaxy s3 stock browser won't let me download anything it says I don't have enough memory but I can download the same file with chrome without a problem. this started to happen after my 32gb SD got fried I made sure the stock browser is saving the files to device memory. did anybody else have this problem
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DustinD1986:
Need more information. What ROM did you flash. How did you fry your SD? are you SURE you changed the settings? If this is just a problem with stock browser is a simple solution to just remove it and use a better one?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] NLCMOBSTA183:
intergalactic 2.4 and I was coming from urban ROM and now it's saying my SD card is blank and I can't connect it to my PC or Mac neither of them detect the card and I'm 100% sure I check the browser settings
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DustinD1986:
I have as well fried a few external SD cards. I always remove mine when I flash a new ROM. I just fried my girlfriends.

I do not have experience with intergalactic 2.4. I suggest running a Nandroid backup.. trying to flash over a new ROM or reinstalling intergalactic 2.4. See if that fixes the issue. Or just using a different browser if you're not too attached to the stock. I run Hellfire 1.4. Love the ROM. Hopefully someone else will have a different/better suggestion than that for you.

Best of luck!

does removing the card before you flash a rom saves it from being damaged?
[HTC One S] ernestnwanu:
Which launcher do you guys use on the One S?

I upgraded thinking Nova or Apex would be smooth, but the app drawers remain laggy.

The experience is poor really, on any ROM. Any other launchers out there that work better?

I use Apex. Why I prefer Apex than Nova ? I don't know really lol. They are alike a lot. Perhaps Apex is more light ...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qbasicer:
Hi There,

Last month I was on a trip and I took lots of pictures and video of family of family, and filled up my SD card. I switched to internal memory since I didn't have a computer at the time.

I was using my phone on the kitchen table reading a wikipedia article and the screen turned off (automatically). I pressed a button to turn it back on so I could continue reading, and nothing happened. I pressed the power, the home, everything, but got no response from the phone.

I pulled the battery and put it back in, and still got nothing. I have a few spare batteries (and my girlfriend has the same phone so I knew they were fine), and was unable to even get a boot screen.

I pulled the phone in and tried turning it on this way. I felt the area next to the camera get warm, but was still unable to see any other signs of life out of it.

I plugged the phone into my computer as a next step, and the computer didn't recognize it at all. I pressed the power button, the area got warm, but still my computer refused to recognize anything.

I called Bell, and they said there was nothing they could do, but since I had phone insurance, I could get it replaced. I asked them about my pictures, and they said they couldn't do anything to save them.

I called Samsung, and as I was travelling in the US, I got the US Samsung, which, upon hearing the model number, told me to call Samsung UK. I thought that was weird, so I called Samsung Canada through my VoIP account, and they told me to call a local dealer.

I called the local dealer, but they told me they only serviced printers. I called back, and they sent me to Samsung Service Absolut, some outfit in Montreal that services Samsung phones and apparently other things as well. They transferred me around, and told me that they couldn't help me, since the phone seemed to be dead.

I'm trying to locate somebody that can help me get my data from my phone. I've tried contacting a few people, but they told me they couldn't help.

Does anybody here know how to help me?

Thanks!!!!
