Do custom ROMs also get the update OTA? If so, what it's like? You just open Play and get a notification like 'sup, we've changed the looks' ?

i want install room cook 4.2.2 but not s-off,

how can i do ?

plzzz help me
[HTC Sensation] jyo1:
Use 4-EXT recovery and enable Smart Flash option to flash ROMS without S-OFF

Ensure u take nandroid backup, and update to 3.33 firmware before flashing.

:)
[HTC Sensation] boyga:
thank u

i will try
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Just do an S-OFF, it's a very easy thing to do. And will definitely make your flashoholic life much easier :cowboy:

I did and it took me like 10 mins to complete the whole thing.

Btw youb should try albinoman887's CyanogenMod 10.1 Jellybean 4.2.2 - KANG it's really good one. Also search for Dragunkorr ROMs on droidevs site, he's got some of the best non-sence JB ROMs with tablet mode, dpi per app, cm+aokp+other tweaks - nice stuff to play with.

Good luck

Hi all

Phone : xperia Z

model: C6603

Android : 4.1.2 stoc

Build : 10.1.A.1.434

The problem started after I have updated the Build from 10.1.A.1.434 to 10.1.A.1.434.

On Power management -> if i activate the Stamina mode / Low battery mode the estimated time is not changed even if my battery is 100% full.

The update was performed via PC connection.

How can it be fixed? Any clue?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackalJackalJackal:
Question ? Setting - Battery - Display I still have about 80% load even after turning on the power, just whenever there look. I performed a factory reset, but it is still the same. Is this normal ? I never did not watch it, but because I fell stamina, so I do not know if it's workload tablet, or am I being paranoid ? :crying:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
For activities that are not too CPU/GPU intensive - for instance reading web pages - it is quite typical for the screen to be responsible for 65-85% of the power consumed. On the Stock software, anyway.

If you make a claim that an improvement could be made in overall battery savings by changing kernels or ROMs, then you would expect the percentage of power used by the screen to INCREASE in those scenarios (assuming that the screen on-time & brightness was the same in a paired comparison).

good luck

PS. I'm pretty sure that each device in the tablet does not have it's own ammeter or current integrator - I'd hazard a guess that a great deal of "fudging" goes in to making up those individual power usage % rankings.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackalJackalJackal:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] KrazyKong:
Am thinking of purchasing this phone. Held a dummy unit at the phone shop in my hand and liked it alot. I do have an S2 but never use it as I need a smaller phone. This looks to be ok with me.

However, what is the official Android version for this unit? And is it country specific, or all countries are pretty much on the same version?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] kabychow:
2.3.5 or 2.3.6 only :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
I believe it's region dependent since I think Samsung didn't roll out the new version for all carriers and regions yet.

But as ipromeh said, latest versions for SGW are indeed 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 with very little hopes for Android 4.x. :)

But hopefully for us, there was someone kind enough (arco68 and the CM team) to release a few great versions of Android 4.0.4 - ICS (CM9) and 4.1.2 - JB (CM10). All the respect in the world for this people. :)

Now the only other question I have is whether one can flash the I8150 roms onto a I8150T unit. I suspect probably not as the modem is likely to be 850/2100 and I need 900/2100.

Is the hardware actually different, or is it just that the modem firmwares are different?

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] klacenas:
Custom ROMs such as Cyanogen does not include radio (modem). Only the OS itself. Radio images are provided by the manufacturers like Samsung. Some have extracted it and made zip flashables. You can find it in the threads if you want. Flashing CM ROM will not touch your radio.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] keithross39:
I know it's a few days after the last reply, but I'm going to assume that the OP still needs advice....

So here is my (in a nutshell) noob guide to firmware and roms.....

Your "official firmware" is what you will have installed on your phone when you switch it on for the first time.

A custom rom is an unofficial version of that firmware that has had all of the "bloatware" removed.

Bloatware is/are apps that the manufacturer and network carrier have installed on your phone at the time of manufacture. These apps usually serve absolutely no purpose other than to use up the phones processing power.

The most well known supplier of custom roms is CyanogenMod (commonly referred to as CM) They have produced their equivalents of most of the more recent android OS versions......

Gingerbread 2.3.5 - 6....CM7

Icecream Sandwich 4.0.3 - 4...CM9

Jellybean 4.1.2....CM10/CM10.1

These CM roms are unofficial because they will never receive endorsement from either Samsung or Google. But just because this is the case, it does NOT mean that they are in any way inferior to the official....in fact, the opposite applies.....one of the reasons that Samsung refuses to upgrade the W beyond GB, is that they say the W is incapable of successfully running ICS or JB....I guess Arco68 proved them wrong....lol

Arco68 has had to make these versions of ICS and JB far leaner and way more efficient than their "stock" equivalents in order to get them to run on the W....this in my book makes them superior to their official counterparts......

I personally don't care what Samsung says....nor does any other XDA member.....

If YOU think that what Samsung says should be treated as word of law, then you obviously don't have the imagination to get the full potential from android....

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] RobboW:
So what's the go?

Hey guys, what are the real advantages to running ICS or JB on the "W"?

Serious question and no trolling, I'd like to know what the improvements would be to make me change over.

I have had a W for quite a while now, it was rooted same day I booted it first time. I've stripped out some bloatware and it runs pretty well on GB 2.3.6

I already have a tablet with ICS and did flirt with a netbook running Android x86 ICS, so am familiar with using it. I haven't seen any real advantage to put it on the W other than having a leaner build. My W on the rooted and de-bloated stock ROM does everything I need it to.

BTW, do you lose the ability with CM ICS or JB on it for tethering other devices to it's data? For me that is a must have feature.

It seems to me, the only thing holding the W back with a newer OS is the lack of memory. It does struggle with a bit too much installed.

Cheers, Rob.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] keithross39:
When I owned my W, I was running stock GB for the first 5 months (I was totally new to Android and hadn't even heard of XDA or CM).

After I'd rooted and flashed CM9 I did notice a performance improvement....though whether that was due to the stripped down nature of the CM rom versus the bloated stock GB, I don't know.

CM10 was at Alpha 1 when I got my upgrade, so I never had a chance to properly test it, though from what I've heard, it's supposed to bring yet more performance improvements over CM9 (project butter for example).

Taken from a stock point of view (having run stock ICS and stock JB on my S2) there is a noticable improvement....I guess you would see similar levels of improvement with the CM equivalents (no matter what the device).

I'm pretty certain the tethering works on CM9, I'm not certain for CM10 as I changed phones very early in it's development. A quick read of the associated discussion/development threads should be enough to answer that one though.....

In a nutshell (and only my opinion) changing to either CM9 or CM10 as long as the tethering is working, will only improve the performance of your phone. ....

I presume that the methods are complicated because that's what is necessary to root. If the methods are too complicated for you, I don't recommend rooting. A good way to break your phone, which you explicitly say you don't want to do, is to follow instructions intended for another phone. People with other devices don't know anything about your device. For example, I have no idea what that tool you linked is, whether it works, and whether it works for your phone. People who use your device will know that. And it looks like you got some help in your thread in your phone's forum. Try there. If you persist in posting here I will not be responding.
