[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzzy786:
It's difficult to do a step by step as everyone will no doubt have different memory guzzling apps on their machines but heres some tips.

1) Don't use appkillers as they are themselves eating battery all the time. You are better off using the phones built in app killer. Use this to kill any memory hungry apps like whatsapp and only run it on demand. Use the app startup control in Gemini app manager to stop apps starting when you don't want them to.

2) Turn off wifi/data/gps/bluetooth when not in use

3) Turn screen brightness down as the biggest battery killer is the screen

4) Use betterbatterystats (search for it on xda developers) to determine what is killing your battery. The time your phone is awake should be about the same as your screen on time. If it differs greatly then there is something preventing your phone from sleeping. When your phone is sleeping it is using the least battery. This could be anything like a setting set to sync your emails every 5 minutes to a background app running. The idea is to get your phone to use as little battery while you are not using it and only run the apps you want when you are using it. Can be very tricky especially with system apps that insist on running.

5) If you've just flashed a new ROM then charge to 100% and run battery calibrator (free on play store). Now run your battery all the way down before recharging. Theres another free app called juice offender which just hammers your phone to quickly drain the battery.

6) Every 6 or 7 charges let your battery run right down before recharging

What's the point of smartphone then, I thought you were gonna say something spectacular about how you got this result...

That's how my mom uses her smartphone, and her battery lasts for 7-8 days xD right now it's 4 days and 3 hours with 46% left xD
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzzy786:
No i've been playing games, browsing net and making calls I've just killed all battery wasting apps/functions in the background so minimising battery usage when I'm not using the phone. So quite normal usage. Its mainly about how you configure your programs startup eg theres no point checking mail every 15 minutes if your wifi and data are off. The mail program will be running unneccesarily. You can set it to run only when internet is on. Just common sense really. I must've played 4-6 hours of vice city during those 3 days and word with friends. Just make sure you kill app in between games. Not sure if playing the games with headphones helps with battery as I've been doing.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjziets:
So after getting one did it actually deliver that type of battery life? Some of my friends have it and they hate it. But I wonder if it is just bad luck for them.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hand76:
Is it as easy as uninstalling the first .apk in the system folder and reinstalling the new one back in there? For some reason I don't know if that will work just that way with superuser.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahkam:
Uninstall super user go to market purchase superuser elite and enjoy ??
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hand76:
Yea I thought I tried this like a year ago and stuff got messed up. Maybe I didn't change the properties after installing it and moving it into the system folder (with root explorer) but something didn't work.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hand76:
Actually I may have been mistaken it might be just the unlocker you have to purchase on top of the basic app.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahkam:
Dude you want the pro version well idk if it requires an unlocker or there is another standalone app for it but download from market "fast uninstaller " and delete the Super User app and install the other pretty easy..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
Superuser elite just installs on top of superuser. It unlocks extra features. Not useful without the basic superuser.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shagerty:
(I have a GT-N8013 with stock ICS firmware root injected installed, when I went to check if a JB update had come out it didn't recognize the stock root injected firmware as stock and proceeded to try and install ICS without root through TWRP and continued to loop through recovery and installation.. unsuccessfully)

I am now posting this from the GT-N8013 so here's how to do it:

1) Use ODIN to flash CWM (Google them if you don't know what they are. I am new and cant post links yet)

2) Boot Your Note 10.1 into recovery by holding down Volume Up and Power, wait until the samsung logo shows up twice, then release the power button and you should end up in recovery.

3) Wipe Data/Factory Reset

4) Clear Cache

5) Advanced/Wipe Dalvik Cache-Repeat Steps 3-5 twice (three times total)6) Reboot and voila! You are back to your original rom all nice and neat.

Thumbs Up My Post if it Helped!

Feel Free to post results with JB Root Injected Firmware Using Same Process. I don't exactly want to be my own Guinea pig....:D

If anyone else has succeeded in this method of recovery please post results. Also anyone succeed on jelly bean?

:good:And again thumbs up if this helped!:good:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
If i ever wanted to go back to original rom or unroot then simple step would be flash the stock rom via Odin .

Bootloop After Flashing stock JB over CM10.1

I used this method to get out of a bootloop after flashing stock JB through ODIN over CM10.1.

Flashing stock FW to get out of a bootloop has not worked for me, and as of yet flashing CWM through odin then booting recovery and wiping data/clearing caches is the trick that works for me!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shagerty:
Has yet to work.

The method you stated has never gotten me out of a bootloop..:rolleyes:

I tried that last night using to different ways to get into a bootloop.. doesnt work.:laugh::good:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mister_Mxyzptlk:
First, stop quoting your own posts. If you need to add something, edit an existing post. Second, whenever you flash a ROM through ODIN that is drastically different from your current ROM, you have to boot into stock recovery and wipe; or wipe in CWM. The advice you were given was sound.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shagerty:
Incorrect Sir!

The advice is sound if you want to watch your note to into a perpetual bootloop. Ass..

Try the scenario I was in and it WILL NOT WORK.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shagerty:
Why stop quoting my own posts?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex9090:
You're in the wrong forum mate. T959v is a different phone than vibrant. Look for vibrant 4g forums.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
The 959v only has like 2 or 4gb internal, most of which is used by ROM. As Alex said wrong section, look in sgs4g section.

[HTC Wildfire S] crossfire77:
for PG76IMG.zip you need to make goldcard first coz we are s-on so we cant directly install zips.

and second thing cwm recovery wont work if you have WFS 2012 model

follow this guide might it ll help.here some made modded cwm recovery so by this you people can use sense based roms like wildchild,sense 3.5 etc.

Been running Jelly Beans since v1 but since I just now registered I can't yet post in a development thread. I was wondering if anyone knew how to temporarily disable ad blocking for the purpose of using the Medscape app. Thanks for any help or direction.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vudu:
Ad blocking is usually done via the hosts file. You could try replacing his hosts file with a stock one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AGibby:
Ant idea what folder I might find those in? It's tough to spend a lot of time searching since I'm a nurse working 12 hour shifts and can't use my phone on the floor.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
Are you a Murse? That's awesome. Here you go: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.adaway

Download this and apply ad blocking (I know, I know) then disable it from the same app. Idea is, replace beans host file with this one, then disable it. Not sure if this app would know beans host file. Anyways, that's what I'd do. Reboot afterwards.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
Ehh....not sure if this will work. Try it. Default host files would probably be beans ad block files. Try it.

Is there some way or workaround to allow streaming of Amazon Prime HD videos from Amazon.com?

I can stream Amazon Prime movies in SD with no problems at all, but when I try to stream any HD content, I get a window popup with the message:

'You can not playback this HD movie via the Amazon.com website. HD movie playback is limited to Kindle Fire HD, Xbox 360, PS3, Roku, TIVO or other Amazon Instant Video HD Compatible devices. Would you like to watch the Standard Definition version instead?'

Any suggestions?

Quick question guys...

In TWRP recover, if I format data, will I have to reflash recover or loose root or anything crazy like that?

Thanks in advance!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rootaddict:
No you won't loose root

Data is all of the user apps and preferences. It won't change the ROM, recovery, or root privileges.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Shiouen:
'sup guys

I'm attempting to give this HD2 another chance (my dad dumped it for something else, claiming the battery's bad, I fixed that in the mean time) and wish to run android on it.

These forums being great resources for information, I pretty much started right away. But yeah I've gotten myself into a little problem here...

I've lost USB connectivity (won't even show up in the bootloader, 'Serial' is there to stay) after flashing a new radio with CustomRUU.

Device: HTC HD2 (LEO512) - WP 6.5

HSPL: 2.08.HSPL

Radio: Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14 (well, not sure if that even worked out well, I was trying to get that installed. The radio version on boot didn't change to 2.15...)

was planning to:

Bootloader: MAGLDR v1.13

Recovery: ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6

NexusHD2 JB 4.1.2 -> NAND installation

checks done:

usb cable: works fine, phone still charges and the LED still turns on (green)

tried connecting to another computer, but no drivers were found to use the device. There was also a mention of 'Generic RNDIS'

I've tried rebooting, didn't help (didn't expect it to)

lost connection with the WP device center during changes made by customRUU.

have I looked around on the forums? Yeah, quite a lot, but the words 'no connectivity USB bootloader no recognition' in any kind of sentence resulted in the 'project' threads for the radios and flashing services being on top of the results every single time...

factory resetting didn't solve anything

feeling where it went wrong: RUU told me I had an outdated rom (3.whateverblabla), what kind of rom? No idea, but I thought I'd let it update, but I now regret doing that since something might be in bad shape.

Connectivity was lost after the rom update. I could still use WP6.5 if there isn't a fix (no problem running it/booting/...), but I'd love to get android running on this device!

~EDIT: I believe I forgot to go into bootloader when running RUU... :/

Would be really great to hear from you! I haven't looked into the possibilities with SD's, but I've got a 1Gb microSD if you want to fix stuff by using an SD. Thanks in advance :)

ps: if there's a way to undo the current 'extra' non-WP installations, like a simple reset, that's just fine. I'd rather start over again anyway (;

Best way would be an auto shop and match up the paint. It is a little expensive but will probably last longer... else use nail polish.

Flashed the 20130128 nightly coming from Jelly Beans. When I rebooted the phone the (empty) 64gb SD Card was "damaged". I tried to format it via the phone and that didn't help.

After looking into other posts I keep seeing that it needs to be formatted as a FAT32 but that this wasn't recommended for cards 32gb and higher.Is there anything special I need to do after flashing 4.2?? :confused:

Thanks for the help...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eikast:
There is nothing wrong about reformatting the Sd card to FAT32. You just lose the ability to transfer files over the size of 4GB. You're going to need to reformat the sdcard on your pc by using a third party program.

AOSP ROMs do not support exFAT.

[HTC Rezound] jmez900:
Viperrez and ecliptic rez have been my two favorites. Ecliptic is my current Rom.. Smooth and stable haven't had a problem yet. Decent battery life too. Viperrez was nice but with my experience, the battery drained too fast and had some minor problems. Loved the tweaks though. It's fun playing around with different ROMs but if you want a steady reliable and a well rounded ROM....Ecliptic is the way to go :D
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Give NilsP business sense, Ineffabilis Deus or EclipticRez a run. If you want something a touch different try my rom Viral OTA.

[HTC Rezound] Bensky91:
Newt's Sense 4.1 ROM had lots of issues. Would not recommend considering it dropped data constantly, had issues with HtcDm force closing constantly, and only had 3G support for some reason.

Ineffabilis is essentially de-bloated stock with some "tweaks" but worked perfectly for me (HSPA data and calls/texts) when I needed a global rom overseas.

Try em out and see. I'm partial to AOSP roms.

I am currently running cm10 December 2nd nightly I decided to hold off moving to cm10.1 for awhile to minimize the amount of bugs present at the initial release.

My question is what bugs are present at this stage of the nightlies, I don't use Bluetooth so any bugs pertaining to that can be skipped over, I need the text, call, and gtalk to work because I have a 2 month old newborn and have constant calls, text, and video calls with family.

[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] Jdixon85:
About 3 days ago I installed the lastest OTA update (OS Ver: 8.0.10211.204) and now when I try to play videos the sound has no bass at all. This is both with the built in media player and app (ie, Tube pro). Also after the update beats stopped working, turning it off resulted in louder sound than having it on. Another reboot fixed this, normal mp3 playback still works fine however. But my phone is now useless for playing videos.

Is anyone else having this problem?
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] itje:
Kinda similar to mine, but I don't have beat's on and off, nor is video having problems.

Try do a hard reset, once or twice to force it to "update properly"

It helped for me, not fixing the problem altogether but it became better after hard reset :cowboy:
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] kpmblue7:
I had this problem with my 8X. After the Portico update (8.0.10211.204), Beats Audio no longer functioned. Turning Beats Audio on/off had no effect. Music went from sounding completely AWESOME before Portico to sounding weak. I tried several Hard Resets to no avail. Got a replacement 8X from T-Mobile that did not have Portico, and Beats Audio worked fine. Well, two days ago I accidentally accepted the Portico update on my new 8X and am having the EXACT same problem with Beats Audio. This is so frustrating!

OP, you said a reboot fixed your sound issue? Does toggling Beats Audio on/off produce an extremely noticeable increase in bass and sound quality? For the record, I am having no problems playing videos as far as I can tell.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] Jdixon85:
Well a hard reset did not fix my problem :(

@kpmblue7 When beats did not work turning it on actually made the sound worse! After a reboot or two beats started to work as I should again. Going to try flashing the ROM when the andriodfiles website is back up and then update again. If the problem persists after that I will be going to my carrier to get a replacement or possible exchange to a Nokia 920.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] kpmblue7:
Nor did it fix mine. This is my second 8X with this issue. Very annoying. And to make it worse, NO ONE else seems to be talking about it (except this thead) so I don't know if it is ever going to get noticed and fixed. It would be a huge coincidence that BOTH of my 8Xs would have the same issue if it did not affect every single unit.
