Do the mount part and format both /system and /data. After restore to be absolutely thorough if you restart to recovery then have it wipe cache and dalvick cache one more time [should not be needed but may help].

You should ALWAYS format /system [and cache and dalvick cache] when flashing ANY ROM [ be it a different one or an updated version] and you really should do /data as well; though as long as it is a compatible ROM [JB to a different JB for instance] you may not need to wipe /data, but if you notice odd issues not helped by usual fixes [like my Swype stopped using the user dictionary and re-installing the app completely did not help only re-flashing my ROM and being sure to wipe both /system and /data and re-building from ground up [re-downloading my apps via market>My Apps [swipe My Apps screen to the left and there is a list with EVERY app you ever downloaded in the order it was downloaded which can help] fixed it [usually happens about once every month-ish little issues build until I can't stand one and format /data on an install]. Kinda personal pref on that, but if moving to a New ROM you really should try to do a Titanium backup and still wipe /data as ROMs do install some things there.

Essentially, this: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17337

I have searched all around but I can't find anything that applies to stock android, that's why I'm posting this here. I am not deaf in one ear, like a lot of people looking for this feature. I just have a single speaker in my bathroom to listen to music when I'm in there and so it only plays the right ear and I would really like to find some way to force all audio to be in mono. If it's root-only that's okay!

I really appreciate anyone's guidance!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phils7:
Hi

I'm on my 2nd N4 after the first one developed a case fault. I had no problems with that one when using Minco or PA.

However this one seems to have a habbit of becoming completely unresponsive at least once every couple of days. The only way to bring it back on is to hold the power button in for a few seconds and then reboot it.

I will be putting it back to stock tonight and giving it more of a chance. But I thought i'd ask and see if anyone else has experienced this type of issue or knows if it's a sign of a more serious problem such as the red light of death.

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ijustzeke:
I did actually experience this when I'm on stock 4.2.1 out of the box state, rooted and custom recovery.

transfered to PA for a couple of days and reflashed stock images from google site. after going back from PA to Stock I haven't experienced the lock up/screen unresponsive yet. hopefully it flashing back from PA to stock fixed this.

[General Questions and Answers] Wppley:
Hi everyone!

I need, please help with a Chinese phone I just bought.

Some information about the phone:

MC603CH, board cellonsz73_gb, MT6573 ARMv6 797.90mhz, MC7305.zheng.V1.en display, brand Yusu, total 214 Mb RAM, 130 Mb internal space, external 3.7 Gb, Imagination Technologies GPU, OpenGL ES 2.0, currently running Android 2.3. 5 Kernel 2.6.35.7.

In Windows 8 on Mac and was recognized as HTC (Windows as My HTC). Turns out I can not stand just looking for that kind of device without having the urge to start moving in everything and in every way (especially since it's my first Android). I did root, installed a bunch of app to change the system and found a script that makes the Apps recognize a partition EXT4 like to have more internal space to install applications. The last two things I did while he was connected were able to install BusyBox to make the system recognize the init.de folder so I can run scripts in the beginning of the section and, silly me, make a run in the script.

He was pretty one, running everything is fast with the ROM that was running, which it came (modified to look like iOS), but after running the script, it restarted and went into boot loop. Then I try to recover the poor, and went hunting for information ... flash rom did (I was afraid to try installing and kill him at once), then I found a video that said I could try clearing the cache, I tried, I removed the USB cable from the computer to wait for the battery dies (it does not restart the button is in loop) and nothing.

I found another video that told me to go back to factory settings purchases that could go right.

The problem is I can not get into recovery mode by buttons (already tried all possible combinations and does not enter the recovery). I managed, after Google searches, and find the adb installed, managed to make it into the recovery by adb! Then I thought I could do everything that was needed to revive the pet. I fell to the tale of the factory settings, and I gave myself badly. Now the adb condegue not recognize the phone, I believe it is because he is no longer on usb debuging (factory settings), so now I'm here at all in the stirring cell, trying to find a way to disconnect the battery and do not think (believe only a technician can or someone with technical knowledge) so I can try some procedures using software I found (SP flash tools, tools mtkdroid, Android AIO flasher, etc.). To get drivers that worked in Portcom has been very difficult, I tried several until you find what the Windows install left. Well, it's more or less what is happening to me. I hope you can find someone to help me on this, because, as I said, it's my first android and I can not buy another one for a long time (I have a wife and four children, i can not spend too much :) ) and it cost me R$ 590.00 (Brazil) and not just pay. If anyone can help me, I am very grateful.

God bless you. Sorry for english from Google Translator.
[General Questions and Answers] dR.BaNaNe:
Hej,

If you just can get into the recovery you could flash any rom made for your phone, just get the zip on your SD card and install through recovery.

Try to get into recovery through fastboot if your phone is supported and next time you root your android just do a nandroid backup. ;)
[General Questions and Answers] Wppley:
Hi Dr.Banane! Thanks for responding!

The point is that I can not go into recovery mode at all the buttons on this phone.

The only ways in which I saw the screen of recovery mode this cell were: 1 by 2 by adb root manager when

I was with usb debugging enabled. I need to figure out exactly how to enter the recovery mode, because I think it

I will be able to access adb again and be able to delete the folder init.d script or do some flash ROM.

By the way, does the ROM Sophone MT6575 will work on it or kill it once?

Thank you. God bless you.

Battery life & Performance

I have to say that all upates since 10/4 has seen a dramatic increase in battery usage when using the simplist app on the phone to the point that I can actually see the battery indicator dropping. There also is some serious lag as well overall as well. I've tried overclocking to 1200, setting to 1100. Governors set to Interactive at the moment but I've tried them all. I also tried a full system wipte, format the SD card as well but still see the same issue.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] pt0:
I am not sure what MOD you meant, but when it comes to mods like CM9 or CM10, they are pretty demanding. What I always do to save my battery:

- keep number working widgets minimized as low as it's possible

- set the 2g instead of 3g

- I use a profile application to enter the flight mode during night

- set WIFI policy to never

I hope that helps somehow.

First beta released on Official MIUI forum!

http://goo.gl/TXd90

Here you go guys, a sneak preview of the upcoming version of MIUI.

They have not announced the devices that are gonna be supported yet, but hopefully the GNex will meet the requirements.

Go to the thread below to download MI Home Launcher only.

Source: http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/miui-v5-preview.19615/

Video: http://player.ku6cdn.com/default/ou...ella-prossima-versione-della-famosissima-rom/

For those not familiar with the previous version, the V5 is on the right side of the images.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jadephyre:
I must say that I like the flat UI better than the more apple-y UI of previous MIUI versions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CADude:
I feel the same. I hated that Samsung and others were copying the Apple UI. Apple doesn't know the first thing about good UI and they ended up firing their iOS head.

Also, somebody tell Microsoft that their flat Metro UI is a terrible example of a flat UI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cyberon:
Re: [News] MIUI V5 is coming!

Yep, liking the new UI a lot, just hope they fix the low light and low sound issues from V4.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jadephyre:
Apple fired their UI Designer ?

First time I hear of that :D

And I agree, MetroUI is a bit too simplistic, I would have liked it better if the tiles had been on a light or dark grey background.

It is kind of weird having the tiles "float" behind a black background.

The worst part however was the decision to implement this design-language in Windows 8 for PCs. It works on the Surface tablet, I was able to see that for myself, but for a PC it is useless, as 99.999 per cent of all PCs currently sold come without a touch-sensitive screen.

Re: [News] MIUI V5 is coming!

I still use MIUI V3 on my Nexus One, it's a great looking rom compared to stock, V4 was a big failure on the Galaxy Nexus, lot's of issues because they started using stock as base instead of CyanogenMod.

Let's hope they start using CyanogenMod or at least fix the low sound and brightness on stock.
