[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
So as I have:

root

franco's kernel

TWRP/CWM

Unlocked bootloader

the only way for me to get 4.2.2 is by flashing it via TWRP/CWM ? Will this just update my system or install a new 4.2.2 meaning all my homescreens/Settings/.. are gone ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskeyy:
first of all you must flash system.img and boot.img to have stock system, after that you can flash update via TWRP/CWM and reroot. That not wipe your data :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
and where do I get the the boot.img system.img ?

and i push that to my phone via adb/fastboot ?

Hey All,

I went to sleep last night with my power at around 50% and woke up this morning and it had dropped to around 11% which seems absolutely huge to me considering I wasn't doing anything with it. So I went to settings->battery to have a look and I now see "Android OS" taking up 31% and "Android System" taking up 6%, I'm sure these weren't there (or taking up so much power that I'd notice them) before I upgraded to 4.2.2 - what's going on?

I've added a screenshot of the battery section of my settings as well.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robrob777:
Stock kernel?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monotoko:
Yeah, everything stock and unrooted :) the bootloader is unlocked because I was playing with some ROM's a while ago, but my kernel version right now is:

3.4.5-gaf9c307

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robrob777:
hummm, in my experience I had high OS battery drain using Franco's kernel R4. however with CleanROm's kernel(I beleive stock 4.2.1) battery was fine.

I have not updated to 4.2.2 yet. But maybe the solution is using another kernel.

Does it include the custom kernel as well?

Hello,

I want to ask, how can i copy the .APK files of different apps i installed, i seen a way to make aoma installer package for my favorite apps. when i change rom its easier to get my apps back on my OB. My problem is that i cant seem to copy the files from the phone to SD card.

i tried with root explorer and ES explorer also. what am i doing wrong ?? i feel stupid :o:o help :confused::laugh::laugh::eek::eek::silly::silly:
[LG Optimus Black] SamBG:
Go in main root folder...enter data inside that enter app..u ll get the apk files of the app installed
[LG Optimus Black] cookiepuppy:
thanks for your reply

I went there, but it seems that in menu it wont give me a copy option, and even when i do get that option it says that i can't save it to SD card, :confused::confused: what permissions do i need to set there, maybe this the problem? and is it permission per files of folder ?? how can i set the option to copy from root to SD ?

sorry for bunch of questions :laugh::fingers-crossed:
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
Just use the app Super Backup. Backup apps option will copy app apks to sd card.
[LG Optimus Black] SamBG:
U just need tohav proper root permission dats it..!!

Orelse use backup apps...many are available in playstore
[LG Optimus Black] cookiepuppy:
thanks for both of you guys, :good::good: i managed to use backup app, i still to check my es explorer permissions, i think it was root only with no read write stuff, i'll change it later on and try it.

right now i have those files backup so i want to try to create aroma package to install my apps on my next rom flash. i want to try the ParanoidAndroid ROM

AW: [Q] copy or moving of .APK files

Used it in XP and no problems.
[LG Optimus Black] cookiepuppy:
maybe the exe file is located in the wrong place ? damn that wierd, i tried it few more times and nada.

im going back to that thread and read all 11 pages LOL:eek: i guess im doing something wrong or that i miss something.
[LG Optimus Black] SaschaKH:
I'm rather sure it was created in the same folder the aroma-app-package-creator.jnlp was in and it's a zip file, there is no exe.

Probably yes but there was not really a problem you just need all the apk files and it takes some time but the result is very good and usefull.
[LG Optimus Black] cookiepuppy:
My mistake, i was talking about the .jnlp file.

Btw i put in this paclage creator only the apk files and did not add any app folder.

I'm gonna try it again later on today. The first few try out the program worked pretty fast but no zip to be seen LOL. Lets see what will happen later on.

:victory::victory::victory: YES, FINALLY. i made it :laugh::laugh: i think i know what was the problem. i didnt give enough time to create the .ZIP file. if would have waited for 20 secs longer on each earlier attempt, i would have had those files already. LMAO, i'm such a noob dang :eek: so stupid of me. well no i know to double check myself. hehe.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] warstoke:
ok ive had my evo since september the phone was practiclay disco'd out the door according to the rep in the store i went in with some issues with the wifi and lte connectivity and they said they would just replace it with a gs3 since there is a 2-3 week waiting list for refurbished evo ltes

im just wondering what apps and launchers are going to get me a sense like experience since almost all of my last 5 phones have been htc
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BubZX:
MOAR ROM is great. Won't give you the sense experience your looking for but will give you great battery life smoothness and you can morph the looks pretty much any way you like. Welcome to the gs3 forums, great people here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Well, I know that there are a lot of devs working on a Sense port. So keep your eyes on the Dev section, and to be honest, Touchwiz grows on you after a while

Sent from my PG06100
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dman918:
I would consider Goodness ROM with the sense theme and lockscreen. Probably about as close as you'll get until someone completes a port.

Otherwise, run any of the great kernels out (I love MOAR), switch to the preinstalled sense lockscreen and use morphology options to get a more sense-like look.

I agree with others. I came from an Evo LTE and touchwiz is actually pretty slick overall. Only thing I miss from the evo is the stock messaging app and live wallpaper of weather. Otherwise, I am pretty sure I like the GS3 more in every other way.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] daniel4653:
Goodness is one of my personal favorites.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ricocollege:
Just use Nova prime and just move on from sense.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
You can get a really close to Sense experience using GoLauncher, and any number of Sense Themes that are available. This includes the widgets. You can easily complete the look with several different Sense Lockscreens. But that being said, Touch Wiz does grow on you really quick. This from an admitted HTC fan ;) . The SGS3 has made me a Samsung Fan :) . Big time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AnonSVN:
This is now a thread delegated to ROM owners/fans recommending their own ROM

Good job.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] warstoke:
lol dont mind on my evo i was running meanrom until lte and wifi issues, that i thought were related to the rom but not, so i went back to stock and now im waiting on them to get my phone in stock hopefully today or monday
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flonker:
I was a pretty big HTC fan, until the locked boot loader on the 3D. If you're still getting the S3 as a replacement, I think you'll be happy. As far as finding a ROM you like, many have been suggested, flash them all! The EVO LTE has a locked boot, right? Plug it in, fastboot, flash... That whole deal? Not on this one, it is the way it should be. :) Hope you enjoy it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] metalfan78:
I agree, I switched from HTC to the galaxy s3. Incredibly easy to root, especially compared to htc. I'm pretty happy with the s3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Whiplashh:
I am also a huge fan of HTC too, but I do not agree fully. I love my s3 and its stock layout is okay, but HTC is still dominate with sense to me. Touchwiz hasn't really grown on me. Its nice, I just wish the icons weren't so.. I dunno. Just not the best look.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] formulabird:
I have been HTC for years. Bricked my evo and asked if they could replace it with gs3. They did. So far pretty good. Touch wiz does grow on you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] reverepats:
I've been a major HTC for a past few years or so. The LTE issues were device related. Not the ROMs, just like u said . Hell, even Sprint and HTC announced it themselves at the very beginning lol. I gave up my EVO and Team Venom to get the GS3. Can happily say I don't regret it. I haven't contributed very much since then, but we got a ton of awesome Devs here. :D:D:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scott_0:
I actually prefer TW to Sense, and I was a huge supporter of HTC, last week my EVO lte screen started acting whack, returned it to BB and since they didnt have any EVO's left they gave me a GSIII to replace it and I couldnt be happier! I was kinda sour on Sammy after my experience with my Epic Touch, but I gotta say they knocked it clear outta the park with the GSIII :good: and rooting HTC devices is a pain, the Samsung devices are soooooo easy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sprkat85:
I agree with the above. The epic pissed me off and loved my og evo; but locked bootloaders are not my cup of tea and I enjoy freedom that samsung easily made for us

got my gs3 today got it rooted in less than 10 min most of that download time lol

man im loving this phone it is a lot smoother than my evo lte
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Shad Stang:
And you don't have to make your phone S-Off ;)

I did go through sense denial. But eventually I downloaded apex (or nova) launcher and that made it go away.Now if i can just get my recent buttons icon back and switch the back and menu button...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] warstoke:
yeah i keep hitting the menu button trying to go home lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jpatel56:
LOL I used to do that too when I switched from the Evo lte to the sgs3. I kinda actually miss the evo though although the galaxy gets way better reception.
[HTC Desire C] rashad543:
is there is a way to make our device support USB ON THE GO
[HTC One S] trathiang:
When I try to flash any kernel with overclock (such as Komodo or Bubba), I get this error repeatedly from adb bugreport when booting:

If it does make it to the homescreen (usually doesn't), it will freeze and reboot.

Any ideas? Is there a way to change the "constraints" this is referring to?
[HTC One S] Goatshocker:
As far as the drunk me can see - the voltage you are trying to apply is out of range - its too high.

It can only be between 850000 and 1300000.
[HTC One S] trathiang:
I can see that, but I never tried to apply any voltage. I simply flashed the kernel. Why is Komodo doing this to me and no one else?
[HTC One S] Goatshocker:
Hm, so you havnt changed the cpu speed or anything? In that case, Id try to ask the developer about it, (s)he should know better than anyone here.
[HTC One S] trathiang:
Hmm, looks like I gotta make 2 more posts. There should be an exception to this rule for lurkers...

[HTC Inspire 4G] andrewnelson23:
Hi, my name is Andrew,

I just got my HTC Inspire 4g on Sunday. I already have it running aokp 4.2.1. I'm upgraded from an htc one V on Virgin Mobile. I activated my new phone a couple days ago.

I live in a place where I know for a fact that HSPA+ on AT&T works. My problem is that I cannot seem to get H+ data on my screen. All I can get is the H. I do a speed test and get between one and three Mb/second.

My Apn is this:

Name: StraightTalk AT&T

APN: att.mvno

proxy: not set

port: not set

username: not set

password: not set

server: not set

MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com

MMS proxy: 66.209.11.33

MMS port: 80

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

Authentication type: not set

APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri

APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6

Bearer: unspecified

If someone could please provide me with an apn that they know of that provides H+, that'd be great. I've googled, and all I can seem to get is the little H symbol.

Thank you
[HTC Inspire 4G] kurtg:
I am using an app called tweakker from the play store. I am also using Straight Talk on AT&T. Just run the app and select Straight Talk ATT, and you are done. Much faster than typing it in yourself.

[HTC Inspire 4G] andrewnelson23:
Thanks for the reply. I used Tweakker, but it didn't give me the H+ I was hoping for.

[HTC Inspire 4G] cammykool:
So I'm not the only VM user with a DHD
[HTC Inspire 4G] bcd420:
The h+ symbol is purely cosmetic. It is only in sense based roms. Most custom roms aops, aokp, or cm based do not include that icon. H+ on sense is the same as h on new nonsense.
[HTC Inspire 4G] andrewnelson23:
Gotcha! Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] wvcadle:
Am I the only one here that is under the impression that Straight Talk via AT&T only gives one access to 3G?
[HTC Inspire 4G] rick jayy:
4G

straight talk has 4G and 4G LTE (if your in the area) i have a inspire 4G and mine is on straight talk if it says H it means H+ its the same just some roms use diff. icons but i get between 2 and 5 mbps some times 6 im s-off so i flash radios like crazy and foreal thats what its all abput finding the radio that ur rom and ur area likes lol im from maryland eastern shore and i use the 12.41.60.19P_26.06.04.14_M radio and it works pretty well if u get the right one u can get ur phone to have really good DL and UL speeds and u can get full bars atleast i do but just mess around and see what one works for you

Hello together,

I have a Xt925 running JB 4.1.2 (O2 Firmware, rooted, locked bootloader) and was wondering if anybody could provide me with an inverted contacts.apk or one with a black background. The one in my firmware has a white background color and that is really annoying.

I already tried other contact-apps and the best one I found was GoConteacts EX. Normally I would use it but it has this little bug that it breaks the contacts-sync as one can see in the playstore-comments.

So I basically ok with the stock contacts.apk except the white background. So if anybody could please help out here?

Thanks.

I am using exdialer & contacts from the play store right now. I also installed the theme black ics for this app. It's not perfect but it does the job.

Does anyone have a real solution to this? Seems to be a driver issue or something, different Apps from the Play store don't do anything.
