[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickywaldo:
Hi there,

I got the N10 and I have run out of space already, so I bought a OTG cable and a 256GB USB stick, so I can load all the music and movies I need on the drive.

So I connect everything and no luck, so I try and std. 8GB stick and same issue.

Then I start reading and find that the best solution for me is probably Stickmount, or something similar, but I need to root my device to use it.

So here is my question:

I am happy to have the stock N10 SW installed and do not really need to load custom ROMs.

I would like to receive future std. OTA updates

So how do I root my device and maintain the requisites above. I have never rooted a device and do not know much about the process, so I would really appreciate detailed info/step-by-step info... I have access to a PC, but use a mac, so is there a SW solution for mac to root?

Ps. what are the downsides of rooting, if done as I requested? and What are the typical Nuub mistakes?

Many thanks,

Nick

You can use an app called Nexus Media Importer to mount an external USB drive without root.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mieszk3:
Use this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2003938.

This gives you root without unlocking and OTA should works.

Don't bother part that unlock is necessary - is not (for me and others is not - you must try by yourself).

For drivers use Universal Naked one.

Good luck!

Just kidding.

It's very easy to both root and unlock. You also open up a whole other side of apps that aren't available to you on stock

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickywaldo:
OK, I followed the thread and rooted my gn10.. I also downloaded an app that let's me lock and unlock my boot loader without wiping the device...

If I still want to get the ota updates, what do I need to do/what mode do I need to leave it in to make sure I get them? Locked or unlocked? And will it be an issue the my device is rooted?

Also, what is the latest gn10 ROM available? I have 4.2.1. Is it worth upgrading and if so, which is the best ROM out there and how do I find it and install it?

Many thanks for all your help!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmot7291:
To receive the OTA updates you don't have to do anything except check when they're available! 4.2.2 is the latest, within you may want to check if it's available.

Rooting simply lets you access the root of the device, it won't stop updates or anything similar. If you update to 4.2.2 OTA you may lose root, you can easily get it back by using the same instructions as you followed to root it in the first place, or use the toolkit. Or you might not lose it, and either way it's no big deal, you can always check to see if you have it anyway.

Custom roms are more daunting but they're really not that hard, if you feel up to the task you will have to make sure you have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery installed, then it's just a case of wiping the device and installing it. There are loads of videos on YouTube that can help you do it, and and countless threads on here. Paranoid android is my favourite, if you install a custom rom kiss OTA updates goodbye, when a new version is released it usually comes with all the updates. :laugh:

Android 4.0.4 have signal problems...Gingerbread signals are better.. i own a HTC Explorer.. to upgrade you have to first root because htc did not provided firmware 4.0.4 for explorer...

And did you try putting those simcard in another cell to test that it might not be a network problem... otherwise try a factory reset it will revert any changes... it might solve the problem if this don`t help then claim your phone warranty if availible if you don`t have warranty then i`ll suggest you to root and try another rom if changing rom did not solve the problem then contact any cell phone repairing organization only hand it to a good reparer

i hope this might help

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
Hey guys,

I have had this problem across my last 3 devices for as many different versions of the Play Store/Market I can remember... and have never been without it. Why I have left it so long without being resolved - I do not know.

I tried Google-ing this issue - but only found Play Store app listings as results.

The problem is as follows... Every time (every time) I run an "Update All" to update multiple apps in the Play Store - it takes far longer than it should. The first app to begin downloading will normally start downloading immediately, but will take ages to actully download (as if I have slow data speeds - when I dont). After this first app has downloaded, the process will stall (see screenshot). Sometimes the first downloaded app will not install, sometimes the first downloaded app will install and the next app to begin downloading will not begin at all. "General underwhelming performance" is a good way to decribe what happens.

The process can sit in the position as shown in the screenshot for hours without any development. All the little progress bars tick over - but no progress is made.

Does anyone else have this issue with the Play Store? Is there a solution to my torment?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobiusheron:
[A]? Play Store "Update All" Stalls/Hangs

Don't know all possible reasons for this; but, I have had similar slowdowns with the play store when my internal storage is near full. Easy to check this: just go to "Settings|Storage" and give the screen some time to populate. Then if your internal storage is low on free space (not necessarily empty 'cause you have to allow for some temporary files and what not) you can try uninstalling apps you rarely use or move them to external storage.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
Thanks guys, I have wiped the Play Store app cache, just waiting for multiple apps to required updates so I can test it out.

I have (or should have) plenty or available app storage (around 700Mb) - so I hope that is not the issue.

west76 - I willl wipe the Dalvik cache through Titanium - Is there another cache I should wipe? Or do you just mean the Play Store app cache?

Thanks again.

OK what do you recommend for optimal settings in bb7?

[Fascinate General] trvbone:
Re: [Kernels] Flashable & [Tweaks] Jellybean 4.2.x

I'm pretty sure I have it completely figured out I use MediaMonkey on my PC and when I tag the album art sometimes it saved into the folder. When I transfer the specific folder with the music that I want on to my mesmerize that album art jpg comes with. I believe the problem is I use very high resolution album art images on my PC and my sd card is having issues reading that part in power amp. So I deleted all album art images from my PC and reset power amp to download album art and prefer downloaded album art in player. No more skipping issues as of yet!

Inc_cpu_load =65 &75 & 85

Screen_off_min_step @6 =200mhz - @5 =400mhz

and SD read ahead 1024 & 2048

and all of the variants with 100/1300 lulz/row combination too

thats like 60+ some different trys and a lot of frustration but skipping/sleeping happens fairly quickly

currently::

100/1300 lulz/zen

Pump_down_step = 2

Inc_cpu_load =85

Screen_off_min_step @5 =800mhz

and SD read ahead 1024

and this gives me the least amount of radio streaming skipping/sleeping/whatever

and good battery life

[Fascinate General] skepticmisfit:
I've personally had the most success with the CM10.1 nightlies and the Jellybro kang (which is also cm10.1 based with new releases in a similar schedule to an official nightly). they just work the best on my fascinate.

a lot of people use helly bean

religiously

, but i could never get on with the most recent build for some reason. I'll discuss that issue in the Helly Bean thread whenever i get enough posts for development section access. (yes i'm new here too, i've been using the fassy for a while)

paranoid android (aospa) is available, and updated regularly, but i think this phone is too small to really utilize the hybrid engine. also, i think performance is worse in aospa, so i don't highly recommend that for a starter ROM

but there are so many ROMs on this phone, it's insane. despite its age, there's still about 5 or 6 active developers, and one guy, unjustified dev, literally puts something new out or is working on something new every day. by the end of the fassy's lifecycle with devs, we will probably have literally every ROM that is/was available. :p

what i would do is start off with CM10.1. they're official, so just go on get.cm and look for the fascinate. download the latest nightly and google apps, go through the procedures on droidstyle's guide (i think it's in the general subforum, look around). after (hopefully) flashing cm10.1 and gapps, booting up the phone, etc. download all the apps you want. then, from the recovery, make a nandroid backup and just try a different rom. whatever suits your tastes. i personally prefer the simplicity of cm10.1/jellybro, and the stability. but you might want something crazy like domination or liquidsmooth. there's even a touchwiz 5 rom if you're into that

just remember that, outside of cm10.1/jellybro, most of the stuff here is a work in progress. meaning not everything's gonna work. a common problem with some roms on the fassy is that MMS doesn't work. but all the kernels work (meaning orientation, backlights, etc. work). but keep that in mind when going on and flashing roms. always have a backup. and if something seriously goes wrong (as in you bricked your phone), you can always go back to stock samsung/vzw firmware, but i guess we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

tl;dr: cm10.1/jellybro to start with, and then if you want, try each rom that sparks your interest(s).
[Fascinate General] Bubbadogg14:
Pretty much all the latest updates to all the roms are very stable and fast. Picking the "fastest" really depends on your phone and opinion. I think the only recently updated Rom without mms is liquid smooth. My personal favorites have been carbon, slim 7, and hellybean. Domination has been ok for me as well. I'd say try them all and pick which one you like best. (What I do every time haha I've become a crack flasher) but if it means anything I've been running carbon since 7/24 (that's a long time for me to run a Rom)
