[Android Apps and Games] zkyevolved:
No, I think he means the option to HIDE it. I find it an invasion of privacy (anyone who has your number can see when you're online, not only your contacts) so I don't use whatsapp more than to send my parents messages. I use Line until Whatsapp fixes that issue and bring it to a level that makes it on par with Android. Until then, I never answer people because I hate having people know when I'm using my phone to answer messages or not. One good thing in Line's favor is that it also has a PC Client version which means I get home, I can continue conversations directly, apart from the obvious privacy concern.

Come on Whatsapp, get your game on. This is an option that has been available for iOS for as long as I can remember, but you're lacking on Android.

+1 on the notification thing. And they're expandable.
[Android Apps and Games] DraconianGothic:
Yes, I was referring to the option to hide the 'last seen' tag. The iOS version of Whatsapp lets you change this option once per 24 hours, if you so desire. If you enable the option, your contacts can not see when you were last online (for example, 3 days ago or whatever) and you can not see when they were last online, except for real time within the last 10 minutes of messaging. After this point, the 'last online' tag disappears.

Luckily for me, when i last had an iPhone, i disabled the 'last online' visibilty meaning i can not see when my contacts were last online and they can not see my last activity, except for the real time status which clears itself shortly after messaging. However, sometimes i am curious and would like to see my contacts last online activity tag again but simply can not as the Android version of the app does not support the toggle. I suppose an option would be to use a friends iPhone to get temporary access to the option but this is hardly practical.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anthe:
Hi everyone,

last week i ordered a Samsung Galaxy S Advance and i'm pretty excited about it. At first, i was very happy the device received the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update. Now, i'm not really sure if i should update. Of course, Jelly Bean runs nice, but i'm so used to Android Gingerbread on mobile phones. To be honest, isn't it a little weird to have a 'Samsung Galaxy SIII Interface' on this device? Not that i'm fond of Touchwiz, but things will 'feel' different when the update arrives.

Again, is it really worth it updating to Jelly Bean when the current version works just fine?

feel free to discuss

Thanks in 'advance' (hehe),

Anthe
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3cr0w:
I didn't update into russian JB - waiting for official XEO region, but I am going to update whenever XEO shows up.

By that time they should iron out most bugs found in previous releases so it will be clean and smooth just after update - no need custom kernels or any other bug fixes (or at least I hope for it ;p).

Not that I am afraid of Odin - I had branded ROM but I flashed non-branded rooted stock XEO and for now I am good with that.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Piachnp:
I had the same doubt, so a few days back i upgraded to JB (XXLQ4) . So far, i'm very pleased, it runs very smoothly (there is a "butter" effect to it that GB didn't have) but i should clearify that i'm running a custom kernel (cocore E2.8). Also, Jelly Bean's UI is a little more polish in its presentation and functionality. There are a few details like when you press the volume rockers, you can tap an icon and adjust individually the volume for calls, notifications and multimedia (in GB stock ROM you couldn't do this). The camera app now has digital zoom built in (4x) and when recording video you can pause and resume without creating another video file. There are lots of little things like this that make it overall better in my opinion.

Gaming performance is the same as in GB, at least for me (GB also was running with custom kernel, mini cocore 1.4).

The only con i could find with JB is the battery performance, as it is a little bit worst than it was with GB. I'm hoping further kernel development will change that.

So my advice is, YES, you should upgrade to JB if you can live with a little less battery life. If you don't like it you can always downgrade.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] purplepizza:
Can you upgrade if you have a custom kernel installed, or do you need to revert back to stock kernel prior to updating to JB?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
You can update it if you have custom kernel. But with Odin only. Not with OTA or KIES.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anthe:
Is it easy to downgrade back to Gingerbread? I found some threads about doing it, but i didn't get what they meant. The only thing i did with 'rooting and flashing and stuff' is rooting my Samsung Galaxy Mini 2 and installing a custom recovery (because they told me to do so).

I really like Gingerbread and in my opinion Jelly Bean belongs on more recent, more expansive devices. Like a Galaxy Nexus or a Galaxy SIII.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razvan:
Why you open this topic if you are satisfied with GingerBread?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anthe:
Because i know Jelly Bean works great too! It runs on my Asus Transformer Pad Infinity (well.. 4.1 ._.) and on my Nexus 7. I just wanted to know if it IS worth it upgrading (so i don't need to do a lot of things to reverse it :P).
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADR USR:
I will say from my personal experience:

I'm using the Stock LQ4. Without changes.

The best thing I did was not giving up the LQ4 after a FC/reboot on the first day of use when watching a video. I came from bad experiences with previous Jelly Bean. But ....

I came back after reboot and simply marked the option Settings / Developer options / "Force GPU rendering". It was just what I did since I installed LQ4 six days ago.

Battery life is just the same as on GingerBread. but everything else is better in Jelly Bean. There is no comparison.

This is my personal experience.

But if you still have questions you can expect. If anything happens to me out of the ordinary I certainly will make a report. :D

But anyway ... You did not read the forum? Your questions have all been answered.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anthe:

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razvan:
To do, WHAT?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myrddral:
I am using JB (LQ4) with cocore 2.8 kernel for two days and it is stable and fast so far.

Jelly Bean is far better than GB. The UI is more polished (aesthetically more pleasing and you need fewer taps to get somehing done), you have butter (smooth UI), better gmail app, significantly faster browsing! Also, my gps works better on JB.

I'll download the ROM and test it out. Haven't tried that one.

Main issues are Bluetooth either won't connect or only connects for a few minutes. Quality is fine. But after those first few minutes there will end up being 6 Bluetooth processes open that drain power and consume so much of the CPU power that the phone becomes unresponsive until I reboot.

Hi guys.

Ive modified the secgallery.apk for ZSLM5, LSZ, LT4 and LT5 to enable air view.

These files includes the xml file that enables air view.

There are 2 files for each version.

One for preload/symlink/system/app

One for system/app

Tested on deodex rom.

odex rom - may give 'android is upgrading 1 of 1' message

Flash the file in cwm.

To find out which zip file you should use.

1. Open root explorer and navigate to preload/symlink/system/app

2. if there is a secgallery2_galaxy.apk in there with a size of around 12mb then your rom uses preload.

3. If there is no secgallery2_galaxy.apk in preload/symlink/system/app then your rom uses system/app!!

Many users are saying theres a gallery in both system/app and preload/symlink/system/app. This does not matter.

Just read instructions above!!!!!
