Been using Nova for many months, never experienced lag after a long day (or few days) of no rebooting. Sometimes lag was noticed (after 4.2.2) after reboot while apps load... Been very happy with Novas quickness and ram usage! Fsync off.

can i mount system via adb??

if yes, what is the command?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samersh72:
yes you can:

adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mostsh:
do i need to format system everytime i flash custom rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheMysteriousOne:
It's recommended.

Even if you dirty flash, I would recommend flashing system. It can avoid some conflicts while still keeping your ROM and apps settings intact.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoobarEst:
Hi!

I have encountered a serious problem with my Arc S.

On a beatiful Wednesday evening, i decided to plug my phone in to my PC, bt encountered a problem.

I put in the USB cord to the USB input, but then Windows told me that, it cannot recoqnize USB device, tried with three other PC's, but still the same.

I will start charging, when i connect it to the PC.

The phone has always been dry, in a silicone case, no water damage etc.Can the problem be the USB Cord?

Or can the problem be, that, if i put my phone into charging phone, and then pick it p, and play with it, the USB hole could be damaged by that?

OR can the problem be the firmware?

I once installed omega ROM or something, which i can't remember, but after that is installed the stock 2.3.4 FW, without root.

But can the Kernel f*ck things up?

2.6.32.9-perf

Kernel version - SEMCUser@SEMcHost #1

Build number of the phone -

4.0.2.A.0.62

Thank you for your time.

PS! Sorry for my english, i'm Estonian.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Could be a number of things (not very helpful i know) have you got Latest flash tool and fastboot drivers installed? i would first try to re-install drivers again which are in flashtool/drivers folder.I would start there first many a time its a driver problem.:fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4988456:
If your problem is caused by software then restoring factory settings or flashing stock kernel and firmware with flashtool will fix this but before all of this I'd try connecting your phone with different usb cable. Also your english is still better than 90% of this forum posters.

---------- Post added at 01:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

He said it wont connect on many different pc's so it cant be a driver problem unless he used the same corrupted installer on all of these computers or there is some kind of curse causing all of hes effort in connecting usb cables to fail.

Oh and start by formatting your sd in card reader in windows (full format not the quick one) it may be corrupted filesystem or something like that.

Hey Guys,

I have just released an app on the Google Play store.

It is a plugin for tasker so you can control your notification led

Free - Ad Free

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tinyroar.galaxys3ledcontroller

(this plugin only works for touchwiz roms)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] domain101:
Like a charm!

I had searched for a solution to this months ago before giving up. Thanks for this!

I can confirm that it is working on a rooted Verizon S3, as well as a rooted Verizon Note 2. Finally, I can sleep without feeling like I live next to a lighthouse. :victory:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BlackDino:
Glad to hear! Thanks for testing on the note as well!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bkeaver:
this works great on my SIII is there anyway you can make one for the Note2? the playstore says its compatible yet it never downloads onto my device.

just noticed your post above saying your testing on note..lol sorry.. Im hoping that is note 2. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] WattB006:
Thanks for this. I am relatively new to Tasker and this helps out quite a bit. Works perfectly on my SIII.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BlackDino:
Weird, I don't have and flags for the devices it allows.

I can upload the apk to this forum?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] radx:
Works great on my international I9300! Thanks a million!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 78Staff:
So, what can you do with this... not being flippant, just really getting into Tasker now and checking out all the different apps and plugins available and what they do, etc. Examples?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] im_on_fire:
from my understanding there was a bug with tasker and lightflow that they wouldn't properly control the LED on the S3. This plug in allows you to create tasker tasks to turn them off and on.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BlackDino:
This is exactly right,

Let's you control the stock Samsung led controls through tasker
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pappcam:
I think any LED "bugs" would lie with LightFlow. It's just an all around POS on these devices.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bkeaver:
This works great on both my gs3 and note 2
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bramgg:
I don't know if it's even possible what i'm about to ask, but would there be a chance to make this tasker plugin compatibele with Sony devices, for instance Xperia Z1?

I'm already trying solutions for hours but still cannot get tasker to turn off LED notifications at night when my device is charging on a dock.

I never had any problems with this before because I lways charged my phones face down, but now I'm using a dock so this is really bugging me!

EDIT: Light Flow isn't working for me either.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] meyerweb:
I know this is a REAL old thread, but I'm hoping someone might have a copy of this app. I was using it on my S7 Edge, accidentally deleted it, and it's no longer available in the Play Store. Any help greatly appreciated.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
This also seems to send home key to the device. e.g. you have browser open and turn off. Then wake up with home. This also goes to the home page and browser is not active anymore.

Is there anyway around this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I just opened browser, pressed power button, used home key to turn back on and it opened to browser.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sumomuscle:
Yeah, it's pretty annoying. Do you have s voice disabled? If you do, enable it and go into the settings. Click the option that says "open via the home button". That said work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
I don't want to enable S-Voice since it causes home button lag. So I guess this is not fixable?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
Did you have to unlock first? If you lock and try it quickly, so the lock screen doesn't come up, then you can see this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sumomuscle:
If you don't mind flashing roms, any aosp rom will fix the issue, but i think most touchwiz roms will have it. You should also ty checking the option to open via the home button in s voice then making google the default app that opens on double click.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rizapn:
I use old CleanROM (v2.1) and it works like your explanation. But when I upgrade it to lastest CleanROM (v5.6), the Home button will work just like the OP said. It will NOT only wake the phone up, but also close/minimize the browser (so I rollback to the old CleanROM) ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sgayol:
I've noticed the same behavior in CR 5.5.1 and 5.6. If I go to Settings>Lock Screen and set 'Lock Automatically' to any time X, if my screen goes off and I hit the home button before X time passes, the screen will wake and will go to the home screen. I always have SVoice off but I'll try messing with the settings mentioned above...

[HTC One X+] maritimesbob:
I unlocked my HOX+ today and rooted the phone. All went well, however I flashed my first rom the CM10 international and flashed the kernel, however the phone is stuck at the CM10 logo stage.

I have no idea how to get back in to recovery. I can;t even power down the phone so that I can re-install a nandroid backup of my original rom. The CM10 logo is just spinning around. Normally I would pull the battery but!!!

Help please :)
[HTC One X+] NasaGeek:
Devices with non-removable batteries have hardware key combinations to manually reboot the phone. With the One X+ that combination just so happens to be Power Button + Volume Down. Just hold those keys until you see the hboot screen.
[HTC One X+] maritimesbob:
Thanks.

It took several attempts of holding down those buttons, eventually it restarted and I was able to access recovery.
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
Just holding the power button will reboot phone, once the phone vibrates then hold vol down aswell. I find thats the best way to get back to the BL after a bad flash :)

Perfect. Just what I was looking for.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trikpat_A:
I like this app but its only for settings. Is there an app that forces LED to light up/blink using tasker? anyone have any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bort76:
I love this app, but I have one request. It would be great if there was an option for "no change" in addition to ON/OFF. There may be times when I want power saving mode on, but not change the LED settings, or vice versa. Just as an example.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XXchocolatetouchXX:
Yeah its already in tasker.

Create a new task go to add>Alert>Notify LED. Add a title and whatever else you wish, the title is mandatory though, set the color and rate, and any actions on the notification if you wish. Press play and shut off the screen and it should be lit up and blinking (select 1 if you want it to be set on).

It seems though it doesnt play well with touchwiz.. The blue light always overrides at least for messaging. I wanted to make it blink faster, but I did not succeed in what I tried. No big deal though. THe only reason I wont disable the touchwiz is that it is used for other things than just messaging and I do not want to have a notification I missed because I just wanted a light to blink faster.

Remove the notification to make the light go away. This only works on screen off though.

Need any more help let me know I have been using tasker for over a year now and have much experience with many features of it. PM me if you need to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] trikpat_A:

Or does Tasker need updating?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RedSkyRoad:
I figured it out:

01] You first have to get to the notification access settings to give Tasker access. The settings page looks like this :

02] Then set up two tasks for the LED plugin like this :

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

So when you enable DND, the LEDs will be off and vice versa

Yea I used it on my S7E, S8+, and now my S9+. Still working perfectly.

Today my laptop won't boot and when i tried to restore all my restore points were gone. I had to run window fix to boot and now i m running spybot and it has indicated level 5 threat still scanning.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] webmaven:
Think I have a solution for short battery life for Nook! (Really for any android device)

The problem has been that the Nook Tablet does not go to a Deep sleep (even if they say its fixed its not). Every night I have to charge the Nook battery because it goes from 100% to 90% overnight. If the Nook sits all day with no use the battery will drop to 85%. Almost a 20% decrease in power in one day of no use. By the second day battery is down to 50% and forget it if I use the Nook.

This app seems to solve the problem!

I downloaded a free app (Google App store) called “CPU Tuner (rooted phones)” you need to be rooted but for most of us here this is not an issue.

This app allows you setup CPU speed, WiFi and other settings for different states the Nook may be in.You can setup several triggers but I only used 1. The problem is not just having the Nook go into Deep Sleep but to turn off other functions that hit the battery e.g. WiFi and sync. With this app you are able to tell the Nook to go into Airplane mode as well as turning off all other features that may consume battery life. Below is my setup and findings.

State 1: “On Power (Plugged in)” WiFi on, Sync on, airplane mode off and CPU set to 1020mhz Governor set to interactive

State 2: “On Battery” WiFi on, Sync on, airplane mode off and CPU set to 1020mhz Governor set to interactive (same as above)

State 3: “Screen off” WiFi off, Sync off, airplane mode on and CPU 600mhz Governor set to conservative

State 4: “Screen Lock” WiFi off, Sync off, airplane mode on and CPU 600mhz Governor set to conservative (Same as above)

With these settings (and having 3 nooks with CM10 to test) here are my numbers

test stared around 10pm

Nook 1 started with 76% batt (CPU Tuner not installed)

Nook 2 started with 85% batt (CPU Tuner not installed)

Nook 3 started with 90% batt (CPU Tuner installed)

checked battery life at 8am next morning.

Nook 1 65% batt

Nook 2 75% batt

Nook 3 91% batt (Yes it went up 1%)

Later in the day with no use 8pm still 91%

Loaded CPU Tuner on all three Nooks started test at 10pm. (Day 2)

Nook 1 started at 96%

Nook 2 started at 74%

Nook 3 started at 83%

Checked battery life at 8am next morning.

Nook 1 ended at 96%

Nook 2 ended at 75%

Nook 3 ended at 83%

As you can see this is a big difference then losing 20% power overnight. Since I have Screen Off and Screen Lock as the same trigger I don’t lose power if I am just checking batt level or the time.

This is a MUST HAVE APP. easy to setup and makes a big difference.

You can also setup it up so that if you are on the battery the CPU is at 1008mhz which will save battery life while in use and when plugged in CPU can go to 1020mhz giving you full power.

Sorry for such a long post but I felt it was good info for the users.
