[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corky:
Ok thanks for the reply. I do have that setting off, so it's not that. Only seems to relate to power saver, and I can turn off three options within that and just leave the CPU one on and it still does it. So I'm lost.

Yes the photo issue is hard to explain. If the thumbnail images are small it's fine, but when you make them bigger that's when they sort of animate anti-clockwise or tilt while scrolling, then return to normal when you stop scrolling.

Thanks again.

I expect followed C++ code:

iReturn=RIL_DevSpecific(hRil, (BYTE *)"AT+CSQ\r", (DWORD)7);

can send AT command by RIL_DevSpecific, but fail.

can anyone correct above code and be sent successfully.

Thank.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] itsme:
you expect wrong.

DWORD cmd= 0x25;
RIL_DevSpecific(hRil, &cmd, sizeof(cmd));

will perform device specific command '0x25', which is 'at+creg=2'

Anyone know how to up the graphics in Modern Combat 4 like on the HOX? I tried the apk modder but it's meant for the One X so naturally it didn't work. I've seen people on YouTube with Nexus 7s playing on highest settings, anyway we can too?

CM10.1
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] brees75:
Nexus 7 has it automatically because it is "optimized" for Tegra. I am looking for the same thing on my Nexus 10 which is how I ended up here. LOL I am going to dig through the files and see if I can copy the settings over to my n10, when I have some luck I will let you know. After dealing with these nVidia optimizations in PC games for the last 10 years I can tell you that it is not hardware specific.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyperdude111:
I recently bought a Nexus 4 and have a few questions about whether or not I should root.

Firstly, I'm not new to this. I have in the past rooted 4 android devices including a Gal-nexus. Nevertheless I have concerns.

1. Does performance suffer with custom Roms/kernels? I have found my N4 very responsive but in the past I felt like some speed and fluidity was lost when I flashed new Roms. Is that still the case?

2. A follow on from 1; What's the best Rom?

3. Are there any benefits to rooting specific to the N4 that I otherwise wouldn't know about?

4. Are there any other reason why I should/ should not root that you know?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonoxda:
I don't see how anyone could possibly answer your questions. Performance varies from ROM to ROM, but generally building a ROM that makes performance suffer doesn't regularly become popular. The best ROM is an often asked question, and it gets the same answer every time. You need to try them out and see for yourself. People may offer their opinions, but that's it. You may like something in one ROM which I don't etc. There are benefits to rooting, as a few popular apps require root permissions (Titanium backup i.e). I always root my phones, and I've never regretted doing it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp420:
1. Does performance suffer with custom Roms/kernels? I have found my N4 very responsive but in the past I felt like some speed and fluidity was lost when I flashed new Roms. Is that still the case?

Flash a custom rom if you'd like. Honestly, there's nothing wrong with vanilla android 4.2.2, but it's missing a few things I like having...like expanded power menu and the theme engine

2. A follow on from 1; What's the best Rom?

for me it's paranoid. It looks VERY professional, IMHO, and it offers everything I want in a rom, including an aosp base, rather than CM, which has become a little too trendy for me

3. Are there any benefits to rooting specific to the N4 that I otherwise wouldn't know about?

accessing any functions that would need modding to run from anywhere but the /data directory just like always

4. Are there any other reason why I should/ should not root that you know?

the first thing I did when I unboxed mine (after playing with the stock rom for 20 minutes) was run the bootloader unlock command, then flash cwm so I could run a custom rom :) I'm probably the wrong person to ask if you're apprehensive about using a custom rom, because I'm always for rooting and customizing ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 20vakaris00:
If you want to root it do it at your own risk..btw I haven't rooted mine yet
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Thank you for sharing this vital and lifechanging information ;)

@OP:

I would use the phone for a few weeks to get familiar with it, read up in the meantime about the rom`s, kernel`s, mods that are available and fastboot and adb . After that you can realy compare and see the benefits and/or downsides between stock and custom.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headcreepz:
As long as you have done the research and understand the risks of rooting your device(and you have stated you do) I would. The whole reason I bought this device is because I knew development would be off the chain.....and it is. Good luck whichever you decide and flash safely.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iNeedICS:
Honestly I've been rooted I've tried like 5 roms (top roms like cm, Xenon, xylon, liquid smooth, etc) but I feel like stock is smoother and faster... I root for performance and customization but there's no improvement in performance for me (unless overclocked) so I guess I'm going back to stock rooted
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Roms don`t make phones faster, kernels make them faster ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smoggah:
i recommend you to root your N4 :) you will not have any drop downs in performance :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hammer_Of_The_Gods:
Hi,

It depends of a certain point of view... What do youy mean by "faster" (I don't ask this to you particularly ;)), yes a kernel helps but a rom well optimized can do your phone "faster" without any custom kernel.

After all it depends of what do you mean, faster, smoother, etc... is subjective. A combo kernel / rom optimized is the best and I think that just a kernel can't do only the stuff all the time (flash a bloated rom with a ton of scripts and build.prop tweaks as a "fastest and smoother rom", flash a "good" kernel -> the kernel will not help you even with overclocking or anything else).

You can have a good kernel with some good settings but you can broke all this stuff with a "bad" rom... So it's 50 / 50 - rom / kernel.

It's not only the kernel that makes a phone "faster"...

It's like in a car, it's not only the motor that does everything (I mean that does a faster car), there is also the Cx, the tyres, the fuel, etc...

:)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cipsaz:
If you do not have a reason to root, don't do it then.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Good remark.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScumDroid:
I rooted mine and flashed Faux mainline kernel with stock 4.2.2 and i noticed a huge improvement in battery life and performance. :good:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] travon802:
My reasons for rooting before I even put my SIM card in:

1. It wipes the phone so best to do it first.

2. Titanium Backup to restore transfer apps/data from my Nexus One.

3. Install Greenify

4. Install AdAway

5. Load Franco kernel which doesn't require root but his kernel app does

I knew going in that I wasn't going to load a custom ROM for a long time (if at all). I don't see how it could get much smoother than stock
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjoeltan:
There is no "Best" ROM. It's all on personal preference. I personally think PA is the best rom, and have stuck by it ever since getting my N4. You might think another rom is best, so just try all the ones that seem interesting to you, and find out what's best for you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToledoG28:
If you just got your nexus 4 enjoy it stock for a while. It works pretty good! Take your time to read. Welcome aboard!:D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iNeedICS:
I'm on stock right now and it's blazing I mean I might root again and try a kernel with mpdecision enabled and that could make a big difference but we'll see I mean I like stock for now there's not much bloat except for like currents, earth, book, and stuff which is just Google play stuff I'm glad I don't have all that tmobile bloat lol

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micks_address:
Yeah Im kind a questioning the point in rooting to. I had rooted and installed RasBean rom with Trinity on my Galaxy Nexus and it was great, but one of the main reasons i rooted was to get stickmount to work for usb memory stick support. As this isnt there yet for the N4 then im failing to see the point... plus once i start flashing roms and taking backups with clockworkmod that eats into available phone space..

im sure i'll be tempted eventually but right now im getting decent battery life, good performance and my screen colours are good enough for me.. so i am on the fence..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roi14:
will rooting and flashing these custom kernels/roms resolve the wifi instability issue?? thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raggatokan:
In my opinion, if You are asking this (and these) question (s) then You definitely should not root your device. It's natural for me to root it 5 minutes after unboxing my new device, but I know why am I doing this. If you asking other people whether You should do it or not then You dont need it :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorjira:
I waited to root my Nexus 4 because the stock ROM was amazingly smooth, fast, and (as it should be) stable. I decided to root it because i wanted to try Paranoid Android for all the extra features and customization. After a bit it lost it's luster and i just loaded up my stock backup from my computer and went back to stock in a flash. So if you don't like some custom ROMs you can always go back to stock easily.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
I never even turned my Nexus 4 on with a stock ROM. The second I got it, I booted into fastboot and unlocked it, then fastboot flashed twrp, rooted, and flashed AOKP and I have never looked back.

Making the nav bar buttons small so they don't take up my screen and adding menu and search are enough for me to root, let alone all of the other mods you can do.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stories:
Me too, except I booted CM10.1 instead of AOKP.

This phone is also extremely easy to unlock and put custom recovery on it. You don't even need to root it after unlocking and putting on custom ROM because all the ROMs out there are rooted.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
The main reason I can't stand CM10.1 is the nav bar modifications are way too complicated and limited, other than that it's a good ROM, but nav bar is really important to me. AOKP has it down extremely well.

But yeah rooting this phone is insanely easy, even if adb doesn't really work well on 4.2.2
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
If your hanging around XDA, then you should root! ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blitzzz3434:
I enjoyed the stock ROM for 2 months before I rooted my N4 especially since this was my first Android device. It really gave me a chance to learn everything about how everything worked and what to do and what not to do.

Currently I am on the PA rom and I really came to appreciate the added features such as phablet UI, changing DPI for individual application and built in LED notification customization and many many more.

Try out stock for a while before you root.

[Galaxy S 4 General] boodies:
It doesn't take a genius to see that this phone offers way beyond what other manufacturers are capable of. Any company can put together a body and screen and call it a phone, but Samsung not only puts the best hardware, they have the best software. What a beautiful phone. Just like the S3, and S2 before that, the S4 is easily going to win the award. It bascially made all other phones obsolete. (sans spen). Good job Sammy.
[Galaxy S 4 General] 20blks:

[Galaxy S 4 General] djbenny1:
good question

OP, you're delusional if you can't admit that the HTC One is an incredible piece of hardware and software in its own right.

it'll be a close call for the phone of the year - if its to be one of these 2, i am sure that opinion will be just as divided as it is now.
[Galaxy S 4 General] barondebxl:
I have to agree although i sense you being a little bias towards the HTC One. But yeah, in my opinion there are 2 2013 Flagship phones that matter, S IV and HTC One. The rest IS obsolete so far and that is including the XZ and the optimus G pro ( not that its a bad phone but it wont compete).
[Galaxy S 4 General] djbenny1:
HTC One is my choice - no doubt - I waited until GS4 was announced before i decided though so i was still hoping samsung could pull something out of the bag.

you're right, theres nothing else out now that comes close to either of them but it will be interesting to see next Nexus phone though.
[Galaxy S 4 General] shashivydyula:
In my view HTC Sense is quite smoother, excellent and amazing over touchwiz.

It is my opinion only. But beware of HTC One. It's gonna be a tug of war.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Kremata:
And what about the Note2(or coming Note3)? Doesn't it deserve a nomination?
[Galaxy S 4 General] barondebxl:
Oh yeah definitely. Nexus(es) are always relevant regardless. I also waited for the S IV announcement to make up my mind between the 2 and chose S 4. But i will at some point get the HTC One and carry both :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Deleted member 3976874:
What's so special about the One other than the nice animations and battery consuming Blink?

I had an HTC before with Sense 4, and the software didn't impress me at all.
[Galaxy S 4 General] barondebxl:
Note 3 isn't out yet and note 2, while being one of the best phone ever isn't a flagship for this year. We are just comparing the new devices. But yeah note 2 is a beast no doubt.
[Galaxy S 4 General] djbenny1:
looking at software only, sense 5 is MUCH closer to stock android than any other version previously.

they've also removed much of the bloat that was in other versions.

(for the record, i didnt care much for previous versions of sense either, usually preferred stock android)

this is off topic though.

on topic, yea i was going to mention the note 3 - i dunno though, im not entirely happy with it being called a phone, for me its TOO big as i believe its 5.5"?

5" is really pushing it IMO.
[Galaxy S 4 General] PLUG313:
I'm a Galaxy S fan and I think that unfortunately the S4 is being released too early.

now every manufacturer who comes out with a flagship phone will try to top it and probably succeed :/

I wonder if Apple will be able to with the new iPhone
[Galaxy S 4 General] shashivydyula:
Samsung S4's Super OLED screen has a stunning 441ppi, which is more than the iPhone 5 but less than the HTC One (468).

S4 - Plastic build.

ONE- Premium built.

The ultra pixel camera of ONE beats up 13MP camera.

In terms of speed S4 is the winner but this doesn't mean that ONE is not a good phone.

Am not contradicting with you, am saying "what's so special about One"
[Galaxy S 4 General] oneinfour:
Some people love super amoled, while some don't care for it. The way I see it, samsung and htc make the best screens on the market today. I prefer my Note 2's super amoled over the HTC One X's Super LCD 2, so I am thinking I am going to prefer the S4 screen over the One.

However the camera on the One has been getting some mixed reviews. It's being seen that it does take great pictures in low light settings due to the better absorption from the lesser pixels, but pictures are as sharp as those seen on other 8 MP camera, especially when zooming in on the pictures. For most people it doesn't matter, but to say that the One's camera "beats up" the camera on the S4 is a bit over sighted especially since we haven't seen any comparable shots taken between the two cameras.
[Galaxy S 4 General] djbenny1:
there is one comparison that ive seen which was done at the samsung event, its over on the one forum if you're interested.

in that case the One is clearly better - but then again it was fairly low light, and one had final software - im sure gs4 did not.
[Galaxy S 4 General] shashivydyula:
There are few images of HTC ONE's camera captures on techradar site.

They said that in a low light and darker places HTC One has an incredible performance where iphone5 and S3 failed to capture details of the image in those conditions.

Am sure the cam of One is superb and excellent.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Chillz88:
Its good in low light conditions.. but not good when u view in your laptop or zoom in on your phone or good for outside shots or bright conditions..

I m sorry..your surety doesnt mean that its good enough...

.....
[Galaxy S 4 General] djbenny1:
it's really not complicated.

the HTC One has a good camera - i dont think you will find a review that doesnt say that.

on the other hand, the same people all agree that it's lacking in detail - no big surprise. that's the price you pay for low light performance.

those who know enough about camera variables to tinker with the settings will be able to get very similar results on both phones regarding colour etc.

if you don't care about low light performance, then almost certainly gs4 camera wins for you (if you are only considering those 2 phones), if you do care about low light and also image stabilisation, then HTC wins.

easy.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Chillz88:
If u read what I said instead of jumping on me because of your fanboyism, you wil read that I said they take good low light photos.. and pics good for facebook.. but I have a life outside facebook.. only max 5 percent of the photos I take get on it.. some people dont use fb.... so I dont need a 4mp..sorry.. and if u check verge, pocketnow and even watch their shows on youtube, you will easily hear them saying that htc is a fail in camera..

i've tryed to root my phone , after have read a lot on this forum , i used flashtool.

the phone has the B.1.54 kernel .

First i've flashed B.1.10 kernel, all ok, (and my intention was to use the byn4ry method and after flash the B.1.54 kernel.)

after that i've rebooted the phone in order to use the bin4ry method, but the screen was black!

Only the notification bar was visible, i haven't could to unlock the phone with my code.:(

How can to solve the problem ?

thanks in advance for all your suggestions!

Otherwise i 've to flash the phone with the entire B.1.10 .ftf stock?:confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alwaysadeel:
1. use latest version of flashtool

2. install .54 ftf from Dev section, anyone u like
