Yeah i read that somewhere, and never killed any app using a third party task manager after that. I have ES task manager just to clear cache and sometimes check the storage and other phone status (which can be checked through other means as well, but i like all the info at one place).

Once or twice i used the stock task manager to kill some apps, but now i dont even use it to kill apps.
[Nexus 4 General] Double-UA:
About 10 days ago I received the OTA update to 4.2.2...

For your information... My Nexus is rooted using SuperSU and ClockworkMod 6.0.2.3

After reading about people losing root etc and having to redo everything, flashing SuperSU and stuff I decided to postpone the update.

I was working at an exhibition and had no desire to flash SU and redo the worx...

This morning I sat down, connected my phone to my PC (USB debugging appeared) and my phone connected as a Media Drive...

I initiated the update and rebooted the phone and guess what... My phone is still rooted... Everything is working fine...

Am I the only one or is this normal and did I overlook a topic here?

Anyway and for what it's worth, I thought this info might be useful.

That's because CWM can keep root for you.

I thought that with a custom recovery or with root you don't get the OTA update offered at all.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dgrigg:
Haven't seen this topic covered in the Synergy forum, so I was hoping to hear if anyone knows of this issue and knows how to fix.

I have flashed the r373 ROM from Synergy a few times. I have a Verizon i535 phone. The ROM works great overall.

Did a Superwipe and using Ziggy Kernle and stock, i.e. non-selected, keyboard during install.

I find that during typing on the keyboard, in either Mail or Message, that once in a while the phone freezes for about 20-30 seconds. I cannon do anything in the mean time but wait. It seems to hold the cue of clicks, so that once it finally gets going, after 20-30 seconds, it flushes out the cue of clicks.

I have loaded this ROM (r373) twice and have the same issue. I tried one of the other keyboard options during the install, but same result.

Any ideas or help?

Otherwise, I love this ROM. Phenomenal battery life.

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
It's a known issue. Probably kernel related. No fix yet. Some have suggested changing the govenor from ondemand to somthing else like smartassv2. That seems to work but its more of a workaround.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dgrigg:
Thanks for the reply. I'm glad to hear that it is a known issue and not just some problem in the way I am flashing.

I'm not sure I follow you on how to attempt the work around with what you describe about changing the govenor. Where do I change these settings?

Where, or how, do I learn more about this?

Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
Also fyi, the lag isn't just in email and message. You could be doing anything and it'll just freeze for a bit. I get like 2 instances a day. I would switch the kernel if Ziggy's kernel wasn't so awesome otherwise.

Basically to get rid of the freezes, you could flash a new kernel - either stock or another 3rd party kernel like LeanKernel

OR (not sure if this second method works 100%)

you can change your kernel governor

Description of various kernel governors

Synergy's default gov. for the ziggy kernel is ondemand. To change it you can use an app like SetCPU or ROM Toolbox or you can use the synergy's toolbox feature. If you want to use the synergy toolbox, go into you recovery, flash the rom to start aroma installer but do not hit install rom. Instead, select the toolbox, change the governor, apply changes, then hit menu and exit. Then you can reboot your phone. You wont have to actually re-flash anything.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pauley:
So my AT&T One X died and was replaced with a new one running the old 1.73 software, 1.09 hboot, s-on. I had done everything except s-off on my previous One X, so I'm familiar with doing most of it. I'm just curious which order I should go in since it all should be easier this time around with everything available at once and no downgrading hboot, etc. I basically would like to root, s-off, get rid of the tampered with text, & run ViperXL. I have no data on the phone at all yet.

This is what I'm thinking:

1) Unlock bootloader with the OneClick SuperCID tool + HTCdev

2) Root with the One Click root tool / install TWRP

3) S-off with the Facepalm s-off method

4) Remove tampered text by reflashing 1.73 ruu ?

5) Nandroid backup in case I need to easily return to stock

6) Install ViperXL rom + Elemental kernel

Is there anything I've missed guys? I'm just trying to eliminate unnecessary steps & extra work doing things one way to have to undo them a different way. Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
You need to have root to get SuperCID. Otherwise you basically have the idea.

And I believe it doesn't matter if you do the bootloader unlock and install TWRP before of after S-off.

The All-In-One toolkit for 2.20 may also work for 1.73 (I believe others have stated that it works for 1.73 and 1.85), which will temp root, SuperCID, root, and install TWRP. Then all you need to do is S-off.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] XDynamite:
Hi, I have some noob questions about roms, kernels, etc.: 1)once I have unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom kernel if I flash the stock rom with Flashtools I lose the root but not the bootloader unlocked, right? 2)once done this, for flashing a custom kernel with Flashtools I need root permission? I think no, right? 3)using Flashtools can I safely flash the stock rom with the exception for kernel.sin part? In this case the custom kernel remains at his place, right? 4)but in these cases I lose the root, and I have to do the rooting process again, right? 5)some custom kernels have auto root feature... with this feature manual rooting is not necessary?

Thanks a lot.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Abhinav1997:
1) Yes flashing stock rom doesn't relocks ur bl.

2) Nopes all you need is an unlocked bl.

3) Neva tried

4) Nopes if you have unlocked bootloader just flash any pre-rooted kernel and ur good to go. Most of the kernels here are pre-rooted.

5) Nopes not necessary :)

Press THANKS if I helped,

Best Regards,

AJ

Dont miss the ICON FARM!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] XDynamite:
Ok, thanks.

...but I have another question: 1)if after unlocking BL and flashing custom kernels it's not necessary to do rooting process anymore (in stock rom too...?) what is the auto root feature? I'm slightly confused...:p 2)are there then kernel not rooted? 3)then is rooting process about kernel and not rom part? Why do i read in every rom (not kernel) "Rom pre-rooted"?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] predatOr:
After flashing a custom kernel... You phone will be rooted... So you don't need to ado any other rooting procedure then... Yes in stock ROM too

Auto root is just that all custom Kernels are pre rooted... You don't need to root separately...

The stock Kernel is not pre rooted

Rooting procedure is neither about ROM nor about Kernel... Its about Android OS... Root enables you to customize Android system...

Kernel and ROM are just its parts... Pre Rooted ROMs have superuser installed... But you must have CWM and Root to flash ROM.

And for more of such questions read the stickied basic guide.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] XDynamite:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mnishamk:
Third question in first post.

No you won't lose root if u flash stock rom without the kernel. (provided u have a rooted kernel first)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] connorjohn:
For question 3... Yes you can... but if u want to really retain the kernel exclude fota and simlock too

Some help with the built-in Notes app please....I had a Note 2 and used S-note quite a bit, I used drop-sync for Dropbox as Samsung have a weird .srb file type for their notes....I've since saved all my notes as .pdf files and they are accessible in my Dropbox folder. Now I want to do something similar with my XZ, there is a built in Notes app which is basic but does the job, it has a sync option which is with Evernote, which I've created an account with them and turned the sync on though it's not syncing my notes to Evernote :(

Has anyone else used the Notes app yet? If so have you got Evernote sync working?

Cheers
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Corny:
On the top of the Notes app, just beside the icon you can see area with a number of notes you have taken. Click there and from the drop-down menu select your Evernote account, now they will sync.

I have another problem with the built-in app. It's great that it syncs with Evernote, the widget is just awesome, but you cannot edit the notes from the app, you have to open them via Evernote. If you create a note from the app, then you can edit it, but then it syncs with Evernote, and once you edit or view it in Evernote, you again cannot edit it in the built-in app. Any suggestions?

[HTC One X] blsbranded:
Hey guys,

I've been a member of xda developers for a while but this is the first time I've had to ask for help.

I have a rooted HTC One X on AT&T and was running CM 10 until this morning.

I tried to upgrade to CM 10.1 by updating but for some reason things didn't go my way.

After trying to fix the situation and failing miserably, I finally got my phone to boot into fastboot.

I can see the serial number and even reboot into bootloader, but i cannot flash a recovery to wipe the internal sd.

When I tried to transfer the new update to the phone after mounting it via USB, I cannot see the files in TWRP.

I am on OSX but I do have access to a PC if needed.

Sorry for the long convoluted description, but the more information the better right?

Please help!

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CShock:
Dropped my GS3, cracked the screen.

Few weeks later and the battery would take nearly 5 hours to charge from a few % to full.

Took it into my local 3 UK Store for the screen to be refurbished, and as an aside let them know of the charging problems. NO OTHER PROBLEMS WERE APPARENT...AT ALL!

I was quoted the generic £75 to fix the phone, which will be added to my monthly bill.

However, on Monday (4/3) i received a letter stating that they can't fix the phone due to "water damage".

Now i can categorically state that at no point has my GS3 been submerged in water or been out in the rain - in fact the only "water" it could have come into contact with is the sweat from my hands!

Anyway, i went to the store this morning and they gave me an email they had received from their Repair Centre stating that the Main board had failed its RF tests.

As a result of this, the guy said that the phone will only get fixed under my insurance.

I grudge claiming on insurance if the fault was not down to me, although if i have to, i will.

Anybody have any advice?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Multiple forum posts on Water Damage across multiple user forums and multiple phone models .

Essence is that if the water damage indicators inside the phone are on then warranty is refused .

Water may be condensation rather than actual water ingress .

If you want to challenge the decision you would need a engineers report proving that no damage has incurred from water . Yet to read of anyone actually going down that route .

Worth a look at 3UK forum if they have one .

Then created a standard 9600bps modem connecting to IRCOMM's virtual COMM port on COM 7, and set the control flow to none. It seems to connect (yellow light shows on WModem app) but doesn't get any further than that. In the modem's properties I did a dianostics test, here are the results.

Try following the instructions at http://www.markhorgan.com/qtek-rom-update/

I haven't come across your problem before, the only thing I can think of is that windows might be locking the ROM file (NK.nbf), save the file and close HexEdit before you continue the installation process, or RUU 3.16.52 might be corrupted - try downloading it again.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Silversurfer:

Hi,

I followed the steps discribed on the link ( above ).

Its always giving me this error.

I thought It might be because I have german OS on and try to upgrade with an english version.

I tried the O2 Dutch 3.15.15 from their webpage and the 3.16.52 from markh.

I cross checked this by loading the german 3.14.16.ger from the german O2 page. That worked fine.

Hey thanks a lot for this ROM! I exclusively ran Liquid on my Thunderbolt for a long time.

I'm wondering if everyone is have bluetooth issues as well? I keep getting the "invalid pin and password" bit when I try to connect to my car stereo.

I'm guessing I installed right: Liquid for Rom slot 1 + Gapps + latest liquid update? Anything else I should do?

Kind of a general question: is there a way to turn the status bar icons and horizontal lines to white? I've grown so tired of blue icons not matching my color schemes.

Also, the face recognition always freezes when setting up. Sometimes I get a black screen when turning it on and have to press power a few times.

Another minor thing I noticed was the caps lock light doesn't turn on.

These aren't a big deal for me besides the bluetooth but I thought I'd share.

I created this software that can merge the traditional desktop and new home screen of Windows 8

The application is responsible for making up the new home screen of Windows 8 (with dynamic thumbnails) and the traditional Windows desktop in the same window. This fusion avoids having to switch from one to the other at all times.

Using the options you can choose to set automatic shutdown while restoring the original appearance of the home screen. Useful if you enable the option to see the home screen when the program starts (combined with oblytile) you can have your personal space as an example for your games, software ...

Advanced mode allows you to set the home screen where you want on your desktop and the size you want.

Latest Version::

2.0

Changelog:

2.0 :

-Graphic change

-Advanced mode recording with a preference

-And new tab with options for various settings to make combination

For example:

click software -> displays StartScreen -> start a game -> software that closes itself and you can restore the size if you want StartScreen
