[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dividebyzer0:
I have an Arc S with both simlock and locked bootloader.

Is there already any way to unlock the bootloader with the new security? Free or paid, doesn't matter, I just want to be able to put Cyanogenmod on it and this whole "new security" thing just caught me off guard (I bought the Arc S recently, thinking I would be able to unlock it like the "old" ones). :(

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghnogueira:
Hey there. I have my Galaxy SII for almost 2 years now, and remain very happt with it.

Thing is recently I upgraded from latest WanamLite ROM based on 4.1.2 JB to stock JB from Nordic countries.

My phone was somewhat slow before, but now I updated it's even slower. Opening apps takes longer than always did, opening up screen, clicks, everything! It's lagging a LOT!

I believe I did everything properly, doing all wipes, etc etc. It's running on around 550 MB RAM, so I guess it's ok, as it's always been near that for stock roms.

What could possibly make this happen? How can I fix? If I totally erase my cell, restore to factory settings and all that crap, would it help?

Thanks for any help!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
Have you tried custom roms? I would recommend RootBox. It's very fast with loads of things to customize.

And I would recommend doing a full wipe.. You can use titanium backup to backup and restore your apps and settings
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghnogueira:
Yeah, I DO use Titanium. It's very handful! :)

By full wipe you mean the factory reset thing on settings?

I'll check on this ROM you talk about... thanks.

I am having the same problem as the OP where the phone is lagging a lot in all its functions. But my phone is not rooted and I don't want to root it yet as it is still under Samsung Original Warranty for a few months more. Can someone here still suggest me a solution? :confused: because the slowness is now fast getting onto my nerves! I can't even type a sentence properly without lags. :crying:

Ur files, songs, videos and pictures are safe while doing a factory reset, unless u manually format ur internal SD card or external SD card.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aequalis:
Hey everyone, so currently I'm running Smooth ROM v4.4 on JB 4.2.1. Now, I'm either going to be switching to Paranoid Android, or Smooth ROM v5.0, but my question is, how would I go about upgrading my Nexus 7 from 4.2.1 with a custom ROM to 4.2.2? Can I just flash the new 4.2.2 ROM on there and it will be the same as receiving the 4.2.2 update, or is there something else I have to do first?

I appreciate any advice on the matter. Thank you!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan35310:
If you continue to install SmoothROM, then you would just need to clear cache and dalvik cache and flash the ROM (check SmoothROM thread in case they warn you to factory reset for some reason)

Now, if you are going to upgrade to Paranoid Android, then you would want to do a factory reset, clear cache, and dalvik cache. (Obviously backup too.)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasterJ87:
I'm not sure if it's absolutely necessary or not, but it has been recommended to update your bootloader to 4.18 before going to a 4.2.2 ROM.

If you want to, you can update your bootloader by checking out this thread.

Actually, there is no SIM lock on the VZW XT907 RAZR M, so having it unlocked is neither possible nor necessary.

Will it root without unlocking the boot loader?!!!! :eek: I'm getting my Xperia Z this week and I'm sure going to flash this :thumbup: :)
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
No, this is a "stock ROM", which is the official firmware that comes with the phone or that is flashed through Sony Update Service or PC Companion. In this case, it is the unbranded German version, which is useful for people who have a branded phone and want to get rid of the branding. It is not rooted by default!

[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
People who buy their phone through a mobile operator often have a branded version. This means that the phone comes with pre-installed settings, apps, themes, ringtones, etc. for that specific carrier. Most of the time, those customizations cannot be removed. Those people can download and flash this stock ROM to get an unbranded, generic firmware on their phone.

I have c6602... Flashing this, will i get the 4g radio option in settings?

I bought the phone while i was on a trip, and didn't even know there was a 3g only model that i got in the end. :/. My provider has c6603 in it's shop, so 4g should work for mine?
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
Nope, the hardware of model C6602 supports more 3G bands (1700 MHz and 1900 MHz, in addition to the 850 MHz, 900 MHz and 2100 MHz bands of the C6603), but it does not support 4G (LTE).

Hello guys,

I'm back again,

And I have an announcement to make...

Notice: There is a reason each app has it's own thread, it is so more people do not post the same things which are already here, and it is also to prevent confusion. If all the apps where in one thread, it will be very confusing with bug reports and finding the app itself in such a thread, hence the multiple ones.

How would you feel, to have a AOSP Calendar app, on our sense Roms?

Well it is here guys! I have been working on it, and it is finally brought here to us! It has all the features of stock AOSP, and a few which the HTC one didn't have, or isn't as easy to access.

I had to resize alot of things, and change some coded parts too, but it looks great, and seems to work great too. :)

There are two versions, just like my wallpaper packs, AOSP messaging and AOSP browser, they are located here:

ReVoluTioN Wallpaper packs thread link: ReVoluTioN Wallpaper packs!

ReVoluTioN AOSP Messaging app thread link: ReVoluTioN AOSP Messaging App!

ReVoluTioN AOSP Browser app thread link: ReVoluTioN AOSP Browser App!

ReVoluTioN ASOP Contacts app thread link: ReVoluTioN AOSP Contacts App!

ReVoluTioN AOSP Email app thread Link: ReVoluTioN AOSP Email App!

The first version will be for all those beginners, and noobies out there.

The second version is for the more hardcore members, and involves using ADB. To know where to push this app, look on the second post!

This can be installed on the sense edition of revolution, but it is made for both the Super Stripped and De-Sense Editions

#include
*
* Your warranty is now void.
*By you using my Mods, Roms etc...
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, or dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
* Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/

Now without a further a due, here are some screenshots of this beast in action:

Download the AOSP Calendar app:

Automated install via a flashable zip:

System Wide package, recommended for both the Stripped Edition and De-Sense Edition of ReVoluTioN: Link

Manual install via ADB (Read post two of this thread, to know exactly where to push this app):

System wide package, recommended for both the Super Stripped and De-sense Edition of ReVoluTioN, but can be used on the Sense Edition:

App 1, Link 1
[HTC Desire C] russell664:
There are a few installation methods which you can use to install this Calendar app, there is one for beginners as well as the mire experienced members, who prefer using ADB rather than install zips.

Custom built flashable zips for both the inexperienced members here at XDA, or just the plain lazy members who don't have much time on their hands.

Copying the individule APK to your phone,please be aware that this app does not go into the data partition, only the system partition! For example, these directories below are for inexperienced members, who are willing to try things out, and learn a little more about their phones file system, and how it is structured:

The incorrect directory to copy the custom AOSP Calendar app to via ADB:

/data/app/calendarxxxx.apk

The correct directory to copy the custom AOSP Calendar app to via ADB:

/system/app/calendarxxx.apk

If you push the Email app to the wrong directory, you may have a lot of system force closes, and the app will not work. This is why you NEED to push this app to the system directory and not the data directory.

How to use this app?

Use it just like your normal Calendar app. :)

Hi,

Please try and post into the correct section or at least into the General section for your device. I don't see how the ROM developer will ever find this thread, especially since you don't mention which device it is for. Seeing how you now have your 10 posts and can post into Dev threads, be a little bit careful with posts like this one. In some Development threads it will be OK as you are confirming that a previously broken feature is now fixed, but in other Development threads it may be considered out of bounds -especially if there is a change log indicating the fix. You will have to look at what's being posted, how it is being received and then trust your judgement.:cool:
