Should I get that one directly?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sarkar1990:
Ok. So I went ahead and clean flashed the 6/3 nightly. With Anarkia 728 Cylon its running smooth and awesome!

Thanks a lot Vanir team! :)

AW: ROM -android 4.2.2 - VANIR 4.002 nightlies

Wow i just tried vanir again. The team has the skills to make the gnex fly, credits, BUT BOY is this ugly! Last time i tried they preserved the stock look, but this is a no go :confused:

Any way to get the stock look and the ordinay nav bar icons back without flashing different mods every time?

And is there a way to get rid of the blackyness? Buttons n'****?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] standa75:
Same for me. Wifi was working after dirty flash, but after few hours it is not possible to connect to wifi. 2G/3G works fine. I tried rebooting router, but it did not help.I tried to restart phone too, but issue still exists.

Wifi and 3g working great for me on 6/3

I just installed this nightly.. from the one on the Vanir official thread

You can change icons from there

Ok, I wanted to install it aswell, but just wondering what's new? If nothing much is up, I can wait another day or 2 for a next nightly ...
[LG Optimus G (International)] scoobydooby:
So it would seem that my charger is not working properly.. it still works I guess, but it charges my G about as fast as a usb port, which is not right obviously.

Strangely enough the phone charges fine using usb, albeit showing the "slow charging". When I plug in to the adapter in the wall, it doesn't show slow charging, it shows the battery icon animation with the bolt that would signify it is charging, however the phone doesn't warm at all and crawls by one percent every 10-15 minutes. The adapter itself doesn't even get warm to the touch like it used to.

So how can I get another adapter? I've looked online and can only find replacements for other models.. this adapter shows the output as a 5v 1.2 amp.

Is it okay to simply get another third party charger with the same power output? does anyone know?

Thanks!
[LG Optimus G (International)] LNJ:
You can. I use a 1A charger and have had no issues.

LG Optimus G E971
[LG Optimus G (International)] scoobydooby:
Awesome, thank you for confirming.. has anyone else experienced any weirdness with the chargers that they are aware of?
[LG Optimus G (International)] phoenix_rizzen:
There's a handful of similar threads on here already. :)

My charger stopped charging my OG a couple if weeks after I got it. But, it still charges my wife's Galaxy S2 LTE HD.

And, the charger for my old Sony Xperia Pro charges the OG without issues.

See the other thread for more details. ;)

Sent via the magic of an Optimus G (E971) running AOKP (Android 4.2.1).
[LG Optimus G (International)] LNJ:
Maybe it's just a crappy charger that LG is including with the second phones.

LG Optimus G E971
[LG Optimus G (International)] scoobydooby:
Oddly enough I purchased a new charger today., charged to 45% and then stopped.. the charger shows a green light as of the battery will not accept any further charge.

So I wiggled the usb cable and it starts charging again.. whats really weird is that using that cable charges when using usb just not a wall adapter so I will be trying with a different cable.
[LG Optimus G (International)] metal_god69:
I had problems charging and it turned out to be the included USB cable. Switched to my cable I use for my Logitech harmony remote and no issues.
[LG Optimus G (International)] geokilla:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2136969

It's a USB cable problem.
[LG Optimus G (International)] scoobydooby:
Indeed it is.. Tried a new charger first as mentioned above, but grabbed a new cable today and it appears to be exactly the problem. Strange considering that it works when using usb from a computer.. I guess it somehow is unable to charge at the rated 1A output using that cable.

Thankful that is working now.. so yeah, anyone who suffers from weird charging it would appear the cable can indeed be suspect
[LG Optimus G (International)] peasantry:
My the wall charger that came with my OG has the same problem. It started charging slow after a few weeks. I just used a different thing that goes into the wall but the same cable that came with my OG and it started charging fast again.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Cyaneyed:
i am using my O3D charger for my Optimus G.. i havent had a problem yet.. so i would have a batter and say its the included cruddy charger from LG.
[LG Optimus G (International)] scoobydooby:
For sure, was my initial thought as well., however I can confirm that the charger is working fine just using a different cable.. so now I am just using the stock cable with my pc for transfers and charging and the new cable with the wall adapters.

[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
I was following this guide with the intention of installing Cyanogenmod on to my HTC One X (international version), and I got as far as the Flashing a ROM section, towards the bottom, when I reached step 5, which reads "Make sure you already have your shiny new ROM .zip on your internal memory as you cannot enable mass storage in the current recovery builds."

At this point I realised I had not done this, and I have no way of putting the ROM onto the phone. Is there anything I can do, or do I have to start from scratch, and if so, how do I do that?

I'm following this guide regarding installing the ROM, but is there a better one? That guy cannot spell.

I also have this thread open for CM10.1, but it's quite confusing. Should I be downloading the following?: Beta 7 (pure JB vendor): http://d-h.st/fo4 - Kernel 3.1.10 included.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One X] matt95:
have you already installed the custom recovery?
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
Yes, and "backed up." I don't know what I've backed up, but I've backed up something. I have not wiped anything, and I still appear to have a functional phone.
[HTC One X] matt95:
you probably backed up the stock rom :) however to push the rom onto your phone you should go into recovery and mount USB and the put the rom onto the sdcard :) that's it...
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
How do I mount USB? When I plug my phone in I just get weird tethering options.
[HTC One X] matt95:
you need to go into recovery and there is an option for mounting partitions
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
Do I just place the file in the main folder, or does it go somewhere specific? Thanks for your help by the way.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You can mount it inside the recovery as a diskdrive and yes you need that cm10.1 + gapps if you want them too. Mount it and copy the rom and gapps to it

Here is a small tut i wrote earlier. ...

This counts for recovery cwm 5.8.4.0 (otherwise a full wipe in any other recovery must be done)

In recovery

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache partition

Advanced - wipe dalvik cache

Mounts and storage - format cache,data,system

Remove the cable to the pc before installing the rom !

Then install CM10.1 after that GAPPS.....DO NOT REBOOT

Reconnect the cable and ......

type in the fastboot command window

Adb reboot bootloader

Fastboot erase cache

Fastboot flash boot boot.img (the file from the rom)

Fastboot erase cache

Fastboot reboot
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
Thanks for your comprehensive reply dude. Does the gapps (Google Apps I assume?) include Google Now? I'd become quite accustomed to that particular gadget and I will miss it.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Actually i have to guess yes.....i never tried it ! ;)

Ow and my apology to matt for barging in like this......
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
Ok, once this gapps is downloaded I am good to go I think. If I brick it I can just break it and claim it on the insurance. :P Although this phone is brand new because my old one drowned a couple weeks ago, so they mightn't like two claims in such quick succession. :P
[HTC One X] matt95:
yeah gapps have google now too
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
One more question guys, and this is where I possibly reveal how idiotic I am...

How do I install the ROM? I have the two files on the storage (in unzipped folders), but how do I install them?
[HTC One X] matt95:
you need the cm10.1 rom.zip and the gapps.zip... go into recovery choose .zip and select the rom.zip first, after that install the gapps.zip following the same steps before... then reboot and enjoy the rom :)
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
Got it.

Can you explain the second half of your instructions please?

[quotetype in the fastboot command window

Adb reboot bootloader

Fastboot erase cache

Fastboot flash boot boot.img (the file from the rom)

Fastboot erase cache

Fastboot reboot[/quote]
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Well you have a certain folder on the pc....from where you also flashed the recovery ? It contains fastboot.exe and adb.exe files ....right? You open the cm10.1.zip file and you see the boot.img file in there, you copy that to the fastboot folder on the pc and flash it
[HTC One X] matt95:
[/QUOTE]

oh yeah forgot about that sorry...

before going into recovery you should go into fastboot mode, connect the phone to your computer and type those command in the terminal/cmd, the boot.img file can be easily found in the cm10.1 thread or in the rom.zip... after that install the rom following the steps above...
[HTC One X] ashleynicholson:
I'm on a Mac, so the guide said I only needed the fastboot file, not the adb one. What do you mean "flash it"?

I've rebooted the phone as you said, but it just says "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped." I click Ok and it says that again.
[HTC One X] matt95:
fastboot mode: power off the phone, power+vol down, select fastboot and press power, you're done
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You can go in the bootloader first and flash the boot.img. I described it the other way around because you end with a cache erase to avoid boot problems (got this from the thread itself)

Basically it comes down to this

You put the phone in the bootloader and you see a red text that says "fastboot usb"

At that point you flash the boot.img from the mac to the phone.

Then you unhook the cable and do the rest of the guide
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inaudax:
S3 is rooted and it has CWM 6 recovery.

Today, I was trying to flash a custom rom (UltimaROM) but the installer crashed at the end, resulting in a soft brick (stuck boot logo forever).

I was told to follow the steps again and pray for a success. But somehow, the custom ROM .zip file from the S3's internal SD got deleted. So, I don't know how to put the custom rom back into the SD again. There's no USB storage in CWM 6, so I cannot transfer the zip file - unless I'm missing something else.

I don't have an external SD, either, but I do have a backup of my working ROM. However, my backup ROM isn't on the internal SD as well. All of the stuff are on my PC.

Is it possible to re-flash my backup ROM via Odin? If so, how?

If not, I'd re-flash my Stock ROM and start over again... but the problem is I don't know how to find a correct stock firmware for my S3. It's been almost 1 year since I rooted my S3. Samsung KIES doesn't even have the special information (sale code?) for my S3... unless I connect S3 to PC, but I get problems (Kies stuck on connecting)

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
read the basics to find out how to flash a stock ROM.

or push a custom one with adb from recovery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
Use Ultima Rom again or any Custom ROM (or your backed up ROM ) and flash with Odin... Look for pre-rooted Stock if you want to stay Official ;)

BUY SD card ffs so you won't have problems like this in future ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inaudax:
I just don't know how to find a correct firmware because I don't know the special codes for my S3.

How? What's this special command you use to "push" a zip file?

Hmm, I can flash UltimaROM via Odin?

How? Odin won't let me select a .ZIP file to flash.

As for flashing a backed up ROM via ODIN..........a CWM backup is .ZIP (Image.zip) or system.ext4.tar? But if it's tar... there are two .TAR files in my backup ROM... doesn't Odin only use 1 file?

I seriously don't know this stuff.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
Use Odin and flash pre-rooted Stock Rom from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30028854

After that simply copy your backed up Rom or Ultima to internal SD, reboot to recovery and restore/install it.

Get yourself a micro sd card fhs... cost nearly nothing ; D

Push the ultima Rom to your phone with adb
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inaudax:
So, installing one of these stock roms won't cause any extra problems? Doesn't installing a wrong stock rom make S3 unrecoverable?

Wow... let me repeat:

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gashin:
I am looking for a device mainly as a VOIP device. I can get a Galaxy samsung S for around 70-100 around here average from craigslist but was also considering a player 4.0 or 5.0 - problem is the 4.0s go for a little bit more (right now I have a guy willing sell me his mint one for $85). However, I've seen the 5.0 for around 120-150 refurbished or like new used and really like 5" screen. What would you guys do?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gashin:
No one?!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanjosep:
Do you also want to use it in long trips or for GPS? If then the extra battery capacity from the galaxy player 5 suits the needs. Because honestly all of the following works perfectly well for a VOIP. Also if you are looking for development support from XDA you might consider the galaxy s. I would personally get the galaxy s because of the better custom roms and the capability of using a backup battery, which a player 5 cannot do
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gashin:
Hi,

I have a Tmobile HD7 windows phone also that has GREAT GPS. I found a couple Samsung Capitivate and Fascinates for around 50-60.... yeah I'm tempted for them cuz ill probably be tethering it.... the main thing is that the player 5 has the big screen haha.... yeah but im leaning towards a used Galaxy S.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
The Galaxy Player 4.0 is based on the Galaxy S1 so I'd go with the S1 because there are way more devs for it. Spec vs Spec the only thing in favor of the GP 4.0 is that it has duel stereo speakers and that's about it lol. The S1 has a much better screen and better camera. Now the 5.0 is a little different. It has of course the Screen Size, LED Flash, and a much bigger battery. Also it has a bit more devs, however it's screen is actually worse than the 4.0's and it uses a Yamaha DAC so it's sound quality isn't as nice as the GP4.0/S1 (whom use the same DAC). So like I said go for the S1 and be careful shopping on craiglist.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] GuestK00466:
5.0 is worth it with reservations - old rom and no updates

hi

I've already bought a 5.0 from new and overall I'm reasonably impressed. It's a good vivid player with all the flexibility of Android to boot and a microSD card slot!.

I decided to purchase a separate music device rather than run my phone that way to avoid running my battery down...

However I would warn you that for the UK version that I bought, it seems to be stuck running Android 2.2.2 with no sign of an update any time this century. It's starting to be restrictive with regards to apps. Furthermore although some will tell you "just root it and update the rom"...I've yet to see a simple (for a noob) rooting process and set of roots that would at least match the stability of the stock version for the 5.0/4.0.

I've searched the fora and there's a lot of info to digest....
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
Did you try superoneclick?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Luna_Sky:
Just some food for thought. I noticed that the Galaxy Player line is no longer available to buy, brand new, from Amazon (only third party sellers) and that Best Buy shows any of the players as "not available for shipping". I was curious what was going on and begin to find that it is possible the Galaxy Player line is being entirely discontinued. I hated to hear this, but think it is important to keep in mind as Dev support could become continuously smaller - it isn't large by any means at the moment.

If you are okay with the possibility of no support outside of forums, I would say to go for it. They are great devices as media players and even a type of 'wifi only' phone. Good luck with your decision! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanjosep:
Good choice :D you should be careful buying a used galaxy though. They are notorious for the power button breaking. There's a workaround however by installing an app where you can turn it on with a volume button.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] jay2the1:

don't you have to update via Kies Mini?

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] jay2the1:
I looked up kies mini and it seems they are device specific, I've installed kies regular and it says I'm on the latest firmware already.

I know I could try updating to 2.3 with Odin, and from what I understand that would be to the stock 2.3.5 that the US 5.0 Wi-Fi comes with. This is how: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EYjIyVXRGM

I just don't know if it might break something, is there a big improvement to updating to gingerbread? Like how is the performance?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanjosep:
uninstall Kies regular and try Kies mini. mini upgrades basically all the galaxy s products so it's safe to assume that it would work on the gp. plus it was mentioned by Samsung themselves in order to upgrade the galaxy players.

gingerbread is not exactly a huge improvement in terms of performance, but it gets way better app compatibility. for example you don't need to root your gp if you want to use the power button alternative if the button ever breaks. and it's a more appealing to the buyer's eyes.

um... that's all the differences I know of :p
