Yeah, I still can't figure out that design decision, especially sine it actually takes up more screen real-estate (because you now have a top and bottom "system bar")...
[Asus Transformer TF700] kokoon:
Looks like tf300 is already getting the OTA, from their forum:

- it's 4.2.1

- you can switch between old and new layout they (they call it launcher)

- some people say it runs very smooth
[Asus Transformer TF700] king231:
That's great.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Bateluer:
Will it have any effect on the internal NAND I/O performance, or is that purely a hardware issue?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Tylorw1:
That is great! Let hope any bugs they find on the tf300 will be fixed before they release 4.2 for the tf700!. I'll be waiting for Cromi version of 4.2 :D

Rom: CleanRom 3.4.4
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
While they can't really fix the slow NAND memory, they *can* do things to significantly reduce the effects of the slow NAND (just as @sbdags has done with CleanROM). However, I wouldn't expect that to happen... Typically the manufacturer doesn't go to the level of performance tuning that a third party developers does.... Hopefully, I'm wrong, but that's my guess.

that's the best news i read about this.

phhh i was so afraid that they would move to that horrible new phone ui on a 10" tablet...

(then i wouldn't have updated)

very happy that Asus has more sense that Google.

Yes looks like a great compromise from Asus. Looks like you can switch ui and it forces a reboot which means they are doing it properly. Well done Asus. :good:

Hey guys,

I do not have access to Odin so I am looking for simple and efficient.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piperthedj:
I have read here one can flash a kernel through twrp just as you would flash a rom. Every time I try this process the flash fails.

Is there something I am missing?

Of does one need Odin to flash a kernel?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
to flash kernel from twrp, you need kernel in flashable zip

if kernel available in tar then you have to flash with Odin

can you add link which kernel you have downloaded
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piperthedj:
So it looks like there are about 5 different ways to convert a kernel from zip to tar.

I used Odin to dl cwm to my tab but when I did it I didn't uncheck the auto-reboot button. so I went to do it the right way and it let me but I still auto-reboot. Idk if this is what is stopping me from being able to install in recovery mode because right now all I can do is update. please someone help. I know this is all my fault probably because I didn't read closely enough but now I don't know what to do. help pls

I really would appreciate it if someone could tell me what I have to do so that I can install the packages from recovery mode
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KSKHH:
Copy attached patch to SD-Card

Use ODIN to flash CWM, unchecking auto-reboot..Then remove the cable..Press Volume Rocker UP & Power, once you see Samsung Logo release both..

Then you have to install the recovery patch (attached) in CWM recovery ..that will restrict to go back to stock recovery..
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whodge09:
i did that but the first time I flashed CWM I didn't uncheck auto-reboot. so now what do I do to fix the aoutboot. I think since I don't ever get a full shutdown I don't get the option to install the recovery patch
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KSKHH:
You have to use ODIN again to flash recovery. Once the recovery done, immediately you have to use keys to move to CWM recovery..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dgameman1:
The goal is to be able to change small things in some apps.

For example, there is an app called SnapChat which allows you to send a picture for 3 seconds and then closes the picture. In this scenario, I would like to be able to edit the .apk file to allow to stay for 4 seconds. Would this kind of this be possible?

How so?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BryMerc:
Hey, I'm a complete n00b at most things rooted besides the really basics. My GNex is rooted and I know how to make nandroids, flash ROMs, MODs, etc...

From the start when I initially rooted my phone, I had just the stock odexed ROM. I think it was the first Jelly Bean. After that I flashed a deodexed stock ROM with root, busybox, and just those basic things needed for modding, etc.

Thing is, I suspect CWM Recovery is a part of my system now (meaning I don't need to flash it everytime) but I'm unsure. How can I check? If I reboot into bootloader and press volume down twice I see the Recovery Mode and I can boot into it... but I haven't clicked any options. Before I was able to do this and someone said it's not really the recovery just like a shell of it left or something and that I would need to keep flashing the file with fastboot. But I'm not sure if the ROM I flashed now has it... or if once I flash it once it's already "installed". I'm afraid to not flash it and do something and it's not really doing anything so to speak. I can't seem to find it using Root Explorer but maybe I'm just not looking in the right places. It'd just be convenient to do things while on the road or something.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eqjunkie829:
Your recovery will remain the same unless you change it. Example, if you flash cwm it will stick until you flash another recovery like twrp or stock. Your phone will always have to have a recovery and bootloader.

Hello fellow xda-users,

since i´m coming from a Sensation i didnt have the "luck" (or maybe not?) to get my hands on Gorilla Glas 2.

I saw multiple threads about GG2 on the HOX and the SGS3 claiming it scratched during normal daily usage.

My Sensation (GG1) still doesnt have a single scratch after 2 years without a screen protector.

Will we have the same problems on the ONE as on the HOX?

How do we know? The device isn't out yet
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananelol:
True, maybe someone with a GG2 Device (you?) could comment on the overall scratch resistance on other devices since some people seem to think that the scratches aren´t really on the screen but on a coating that comes from the device manufacturer.

Thanks

I've had the EVO lte since launch with no screen protector. I've on a couple of occasions, dropped it. Once I was getting out of my lifted jeep and it fell out onto my driveway and slid face down for a few feet. And another time on my concrete patio landing on the top corner and bounced a few times. To my surprise, both times the screen suffered not a blemish. I purchased a new housing because of the paint damage and all was easily as new. So I wouldn't be too worried about gorilla glass.

[HTC Sensation] srkrono:
Hi im new to HTC devices but i have experience with samsung devices and i just have a few questions

Unbrandingmy HTC Sensation 4G? what does this do and what are the benefits of unbranding my device?

S-OFF? what does this mean and what are the benefits of doing this to my device?

if someone could just tell me what they do that would be great, samsung never needed any of this for its devices?
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
Unbranding your device means to remove the carrier apps that you don't really need or want, any carrier boot animations, logos, stuff of that nature. The benefits are that you will have less crap on your phone and it won't be a walking advertisement for whoever you are on. Tmobus I assume since your on a 4g :D

S-off means you have full access to every part of the device much like you would with Odin. S-off means that the bootloader and all partitions are fully unlocked and you can edit whatever you like.

Benefits include being able to change firmware whenever you like, being able to downgrade whenever you like, being able to flash splash screens. (The static image that says htc before your boot animation starts up).

Were as if you just unlock your bootloader via htcdev not all the partitions of the device are unlocked, and you cannot downgrade your hboot or firmware. You also will need to enable 4exts smart flash in order to flash roms.

Its easier in the long run to just s-off your device as then you can do what you like, when you like and htc has no as in it. It also makes rom flashing a bit simpler as you don't need to worry about smartflash

:D

Also this should have been posted in Q&A pal ;)

Hi,

I am new to Sony Mobile, I am a root user back in HTC One X...

From what I know so far is that in order to (perm) root XZ, I need to unlock bootloader and risk to have BE 2 and some other functions to be disabled.

I remember back in my X10 years, it is able to achieve temp root using ZDroot or one-click root methods. I know it's kind of old school but is there anyway to achieve temp root now?

Any ideas? I appreciate the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Looks like you got a wakelock, use better battery stats to see what's causing it. That almost solid blue bar in your 2nd screen shot shows way more awake time than what your screen on time is, awake almost 80% or so of your total uptime

I like to break stuff! :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlueGoldAce:
Could Google now location services, such as time to work cards, be causing pipe battery life?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
All that maps stuff will kill your battery, especially if you're inside where gps can't lock fast. I use autostarts to force maps to stay off unless I open them. And yes cards in google now do hit battery pretty hard as well.

I like to break stuff! :D

Everybody is over looking Mediaserver skyrocketing to the top of the list since this MA7 update. I'm also experiencing a drop in battery. Mediaserver is the cause and u can't seem to find a fix :banghead:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlueGoldAce:
Yes indeed.

The Google location services is a big user as well, but to turn it off or prevent it's autostart would hinder Google now, at least I would think so.

Good point on the media server. The battery life was better before this update, and I'm sure Google was still hogging battery life. So media server seems to be the problem... Possible.

Could one possible freeze certain apps to eliminate the drain from the media server?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] neopolotin75:
Mediaserver drains battery fiercely due to a bad image file or video file......it keeps trying to read the file. The only fix that I found was to backup your sd card reformat it then add a folder at a time to make sure it doesnt get stuck scanning.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
I've found that it is only the network based locating that causes this particular wakelock madness. Turn off network based location and maps behaves fine... Shame really as Google Now is coded to be broken unless Google knows what network your connected to.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
I doubt it's any of my files. It never was a problem on LJC. And even now the problem is random. Comes and goes on different boots. I'm thinking maybe Samsung accounts might have to do something with it. A few days ago I noticed it updated a Samsung push service app on its own.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
That's why I use autostarts to disable everything unless I open it manually. Then you don't need to turn off the location services they just don't activate til YOU tell them too. They fully function just like normal only they only function when the app is in the foreground

I like to break stuff! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlueGoldAce:
Sorry of this question seems redundant.

So will doing this hinder Google now or any of its features?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Doing what? Disabling network-based locating, or using autostarts?

Google Now to fully function requires knowledge of what wifi network or cellular network you're connected to to...Shame really, and downright creepy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlueGoldAce:
I was referring to autostarts but I guess both.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
No autostarts won't affect it's function when its open, but it won't run in the background. I have lots of apps disabled in autostarts so they only run when I open them.

I like to break stuff! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlueGoldAce:
So it will prevent notifications such as traffic time, etc. Correct?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
That idk I don't use any of that crap from google now very much cuz I use scout and google maps for navigation and traffic. Scout has a traffic widget that will tell you traffic times when navigation is active
