GPS locks fine. It works with north up in Maps, and with Waze, and with any other rom. Just not cm10.1

Why are you using such an old nightly? Step up from M2 to the RC. The only issue I've had with the RC is a minor audio problem that has a workaround in place.

It's with every nightly, including M2 and RC1.

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] smtrekkers:
That post was from March when that nightly was current. The later versions didn't fix it either. The issue still exists for me, and I've just been living with the North Up workaround. I suspect it's not something CM10.1 specifically, but that was a contributing factor as it worked before the ROM switch. I think there have even been Google Maps app updates since the issue started that didn't fix it.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] scottyb96:
With the new kernel version of cm10.1 becoming available, I did a full wipe and fresh install with the 7/1 nightly, and I still have the maps issue. Living with the North Up fix for now.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] scottyb96:
cm10.2 from mdmower fixed this problem for me. Navigation works flawlessly now. Reverting back to 10.1 reproduces the issue.

I used toolkit to root and unlock my bootloader.

When I'm trying to update ota to 4.2.2 there is a status 7 error

I tried to sideload it and still get the same massage.

How to solve this problem???
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indoh:
you use a custom recovery, so you cant update the normal ota way... you have to flash the most recent androidversion by yourself.

Anywhere in this forum there should be flashable .zip's of this, elsewise you can load the official recovery from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and flash this, using adb/fastboot .
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikaole:
just install this tool and get to the 1 click menu.

There you can install the newest update. But you will loose everything whats on the internal space. Its a fully reset to latest Stock.

Re: [Q] Need help installing this --&gt; Cyanogenmod_9-UNNOFICIAL [V3.0]

I've looked at this thread but couldn't find any info on how to install it on an already rooted phone. I tried to flash it by using flashrec but it failed then tried by wiping it and placing the rom on sd card and then running the flash zip, it again failed!

What am I doing wrong here?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeatsByMessi:
Re: [Q] Need help installing this --&gt; Cyanogenmod_9-UNNOFICIAL [V3.0]

All you have to do is flash it the same way you would flash any other Rom

I presume your using clockworkmod recovery?? Although I'm fairly certain the steps are the same on other recoveries

Put the Rom on your sd card. Boot into recovery. Then make sure to wipe data, then wipe cache partition, then wipe dalvik cache. After you've done those three steps click on install zip from sdcard, then choose zip from sdcard. Then just find the Rom you want to use and flash it

I'm sorry if the above is what you've already tried

Also before you flash the rom. In the "install zip from sdcard" section there is something called "toggle signature verification". Click on that. Sometimes when a Rom doesn't flash I click that and then it works
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adnkhq:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeatsByMessi:
Re: [Q] Need help installing this --&gt; Cyanogenmod_9-UNNOFICIAL [V3.0]

If you've already got it installed then whilst your phone is turned off hold down the home and power button. This should boot you into recovery. Then just follow the steps in my previous post

If you haven't got it and need to install it then the easiest way I found was to download an app called Rom Manager. Inside the app there should be an option to flash clockworkmod recovery

but get stuck on the second step, it says remote: not allowed or something...

nothing seems to be working....
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kemoba:
It says remote not allowed because your bootloader is not unlocked, go to htcdev.com and unlock your bootloader, then it will work. Or for gods sake follow this: http://oldwiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/HTC_Hero_(GSM):_Full_Update_Guide

now i have the latest version of sdk installed on my system, trying to unlock the bootloader as suggested, but the procedure described in htcdev.com for my device does not match with my hero,

Step 3

Use the Volume buttons to select up or down. Highlight Fastboot and press the Power button.

when I press the power and volume down, i get the options:

<back>fastboot mode

<send> sim lock

if i press back and goto fastboot mode it gives the options:

Disclaimer: I haven't used iPhone since iOS 4, but there are things I can do stock on Android that I couldn't do jailbroken on iOS. Once rooted, there's no contest. Even when jailbroken, the restrictions in iOS are a factor, and make things like custom launchers and keyboards a pipe dream, at least if you want to do them easily. There's just so much restriction inherent in the OS that even jailbreaking can't get around.

It's a very pretty walled garden, but Apple won't let me plant my petunias, and they get huffy when I try to move the lilies to the other side.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] IamPro:
Android :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
Not even close...Android by a mile. I feel like my jailbroken ipad2 is only slightly more configurable than stock android lol, let alone a fully rooted and rommed device. keyboard options alone put android way ahead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidx2.3.3:
Android by far. Even a bone stock non rooted android is better than a jail broken iphone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Craleb:
Yeah straight up android is waaaayyyy more open source. I just switched from having an iPhone for two years (before that I was strictly android) and sure iOS is super user friendly but super closed, Don't even think about ROMs for iPhone they don't exist that I know of.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidx2.3.3:
Yeah I tbink the closest ios gets to roms is the themes. Atleast thats all I know of it. The only experience I have with ios is ios4 on an iphone and then my second gen ipod touch. (Which is pretty useless because all the decent apps "need" ios 5 or better)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaemonAshra:
I remember jailbreaking my iPhone 4. I was impressed when I could put icons wherever I wanted... Still couldn't get a custom keyboard though. But at the time, Android was still really bad, so the iPhone was better, but nowadays Android beats the iPhone in every way possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidOnRoids:
Oh look! On a stock non rooted Android device, I can install and run a third party launcher! Gee, can LolPhone do that? Yes, to jailbreak.

Oh hey! Different transition animations? Nova Launcher fixes that. Want that for JitterBugPhone? Yeah, if you jail break it, which requires loops and hoops to do.

Last one. Dude! Overclock and tweak different display/color settings? Can EyePhone do that? Maybe overclock, but that requires millions of steps and complicated procedures which are risky to accomplish.

Good luck on jailbreaking because bugs are apparant and patches keep you hanging.

What a joke of a phone.

I agree. I also have a jailbroken ipad 2 and it's not even close to a stock android device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Marine6680:
I had an iPhone 5 and jailbroke it... (big deal for someone who had Android since the G1 days and was in there from the early days of rooting)

Android is more customizable and tweak friendly by far.

75% or more of the good tweaks and customizations that everyone raves about for iPhone jailbreak... cost money... not "please donate" but you must "pay to play"... and many are not cheap, $5-10 often times. And its still not as customizable as Android, still can't do some things Android can...

All while it seems Apple is getting better at stopping jailbreaking.

Now as a device... The iPhone 5 was very competent. It functioned well, if not a little boring and uninspired. Its size is about perfect. Actually the iPhone could gain a little size and still be fully one hand friendly. Which is why I gave it a try... the note 2 was just too big for me to use as a phone/communications device. (as a media device it worked great)

I used the iPhone for 3 months and it worked well, and for the most part did what I needed a smartphone to do. (Google maps and other Google apps in the appstore really helped... plus Google's effort to allow syncing of its services with iOS) It eventually just blended in and became a tool/device to serve a need... it was never a toy as it were. Not like Android, with the ability to switch ROMs and any myriad of other tweaks, allowing for much tinkering.

The big issue for me was that it was boring and had small things that just didn't work how I wanted or simply couldn't do. Switching to Apple's services over Google's would have helped a little, but not enough. Little things like how notifications were handled, and the home screen, just bothered me.

It did have good battery life, for a 1500mAh battery, much more energy efficient than any Android device I have used. Apple's control over most notifications causing most info coming in to the phone, to work on a push basis helped.

I could get 2 days use on a single charge comfortably, as I do not use the phone constantly, and use it only when needed, send sporadic messages during the day (50-100) a couple quick phone calls, or to alleviate a little boredom on work breaks, maybe a little GPS nav... and by the end of the second day 20% battery left was normal.

The screen did drain the battery pretty quick and hard use did as well. About 5 hours of constant screen on and heavy CPU/GPU use was what you could expect. (like when playing some graphically intense games)

It served its function as a smartphone well... but like I said... it was boring and had a few annoyances. My fiance hated hers, and we decided to switch back to the note 2... and to embrace bluetooth and voice control when possible. Maybe that will help with the size complaints.

Hope that helps answer your question.

Glad it helped.

I would get an iPhone for my mother... or for someone who wants the convenience of a smartphone but without the technical prowess needed for Android... or someone who simply wants something easy to use overall but a little more functionality than a simple phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] HipKik:
I was a pretty loyal iPhone 4 user--I got it 2 weeks after it launched on Verizon and have had it until January when I got the Note 2.

It really is no comparison, Android has more customization options--almost even right out of the box. Most of the things I had on my iPhone were just tweaks/macro for tasks that I did regularly...

edit:

I should probably add that the Note 2 isn't my first android device and I actually came from a Blackberry Curve to an iPhone. Palm OS, WinMo, iOS, Android are all in my "Tried It" list

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Are you stock?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
iPhone is easier to theme/customize, and I didn't have to worry about all the different ROMs, kernels, etc... Also, it depends what you are talking about when you say customization. I actually preferred my iDevices for organization and planners, with programs like LockInfo/IntelliScreenX and I think since the start of 5.0 their notification options are also more in-depth. Also, some of the themes made on MacForums/deviantart are really amazing. Plus there were groups like dB that did a ton of different themes for the phone, which made it look really cool and imo, better than my N2 screen. There are a lot more options though with Android to get your device running optimal, and in a sense, it is more 'user-friendly' to do it - you either flash this file, install this apk, etc... iDevices you had to mess around with the root directory a lot to get similar modifications, e.g. no titanium backup, but going into root directory and getting rid of launchdaemons.

The firmware is really sloppy on iDevices too, they had the same launchdaemons for iPhone,iPod,and iPad for a bit there... Now I think they have fixed it, but you also had to do a lot of crap to always keep the device running optimal - like running scripts in SU to eliminate languages. Otherwise your RAM would be taken up by processes and excess files which made it ridiculously slow. After

Saying that, there are a lot of creative devs on Cydia as well. I still have yet to see something on Android that competes with LockInfo or IntelliScreenX.

So like everything, it has its' advantages and disadvantages.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JeramyEggs:
Isnt anydash the same thing you are talking about? Cant you run that on an unrooted android? Sounds pretty much the same, but I am have never used an idevice....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Anydash works with just 4.2 though, right? Lockinfo was customizable and did more than show notifications, e.g. I could make notes, edit and add to does, have my rss feed on there, weather, etc...

Anydash seems to be a similar version to i devices native notifications. On i devices any app that goes to your notification bar will have options for lock screen pop up, which is what this seems to be.

I honestly like both devices and wish both parties would embrace each other more openly so that we cna get the best of both worlds. To say that android is flat out better or more customizable is wrong Imo. The idevs have come up with some great ideas too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
You should. I set up the phone to be a great organizer. Using LockInfo/IntelliScreenX you can end up with a great lockscreen. And here are some screens that I think are pretty cool.

If I use my iPhone I like it stock. I like my android customized. IPhone is fine for what it is stock. I have a note 2 for cool stuff
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
and again? usually with all FW updates with apple you have to re-jailbreak. this is nothing new. usually older devices, like 3gs, 4, and now 4s are readily unlockable and downgradable.

i don't really see how different this is from companies like VZW locking our bootloader. it is pretty much the same logic... once jailbroken and you have su access, you can really mess up your phone. the only thing nice about idevices is they are pretty much impossible to hard brick. plus i think the devs on idevices push for this a lot more, since it is way easier to get in app purchases for free on those devices. by easier, i mean you can just purchase them by normal instead of using a program to edit hex lines.
