[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkgiant:
Hello,

I figure there must be tremendous amounts of threads that relate to what I may be asking for already, but I wanted to make sure I asked everything right until I head on my own and start messing around with my phone.

I currently have a two year old myTouch 4g, and it has run fine, though it does lag a lot ever since this one over the air update mobile had released...and I always knew I can install a ROM to fix that issue, but the issue at the time was I had no time (college and work).

I am now on spring break, and have a week of free time, and figured I can install a ROM to help my phone become "alive" and fast!

Well, I don't know much about ROMS or which ones are the best ones, but ideally, I want one that is very fast, stable, and if it is possible, can it even be the latest Jelly Bean or Ice Cream Sandwich? Never tried those versions out, figured I might be getting tired of Gingerbread.

I don't know a lot about how to do any of these processes but I am very capable of reading tutorials and links if you guys have any suggestions on that.

I once again apologize for making another thread about my desire to have a fast and running phone again, just wanted to make sure it gets answered as I had requested it to be.

Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikef:
I would suggest starting here for information concerning rooting: Newcomers please read me, a helpful little guide

After that, if you are on the right chipset and eligible to root, then I suggest reading the stickied guides in the Glacier dev forum to gain root access.

After that, as for which ROM is the best or fastest or most stable, there is no one here that can correctly answer that question except for you as everyone uses their phone differently. :) We also consider it somewhat gauche to ask as there are many devs here that share their work for free and it can be considered disrespectful to them. Feel free to try different ROMs until you find the one that feels right to you. Once you get set up and started, it is very quick and easy to flash a new ROM so you won't need a week if you want to change.

With that said, I am closing this thread. If you need help in getting root or installing a custom recovery then please post questions in the appropriate threads and people there will be glad to help.

Thank you,

I've been flashing left and right trying to find a ROM worth sticking with. And my battery is being abused big time. Percentage after percentage with just texting and things. Does anyone have any suggestions on cm10 ROMs or other ROMs that have the theme manger option that don't eat up the battery? And I know that wiping battery stats in cwm is helpful but I wanna refresh my battery. Can I have some help? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] shuka325:
Try sticking to one ROM for a few days. Typically takes a few charging cycles to settle in. Also, if you can let it drain down fairly low then let it charge completely before taking off the charger for a few days. This will usually get the ROM and battery to sink better together.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vividblu2020:
Thanks and,

See the thing is I like the cm10.1 ROMs. But which one would u recommend for me to flash and in which steps are best to have better results from the rom ? Wipe/data cache and then system ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
ALWAYS wipe caches and format system when changing ROMs.

Yeah I'm not seeing to much Wake increase....a tad less better battery life though.

I also tested some builds available in mikeyxda thread getting same results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] NightHawkUndead:
No improvement on wake for me at all, but got a terrible drop in battery. Used the revert and all is well again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] speghead:
Really? Noticeable for me. It wakes up as if I had Pandora playing in the background and woke it up... If you know what I mean... But it does drain the battery a bit quicker...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sling:
What rom are you on?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] speghead:
Clean ROM 4.7

Edit: for anyone who doesn't notice a difference is your phone still entering deep sleep? It should idle at 200 MHz instead
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sling:
Right on well I'm noticing a slight difference in wake but it appears MB6 base users aren't getting full effect.

While applying edits to are KeyguardViewMediator.smali I found lines didn't match mikeyxdas direction so I made adjustments needed , To make sure I was right on I sent copy to him , He let me know all looked good.

I Also tested tweaked jar made available in his thread getting same wake response so Im thinking its Stock B6 Kernel /Rom related. Samsung made some positive changes to B6, Heck its speed demon with very deep sleep lots of battery being saved.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mutantblack:
I see that as well the more I use the phone. Sometimes, it wakes up immediately, sometimes it doesn't. Hope you can solve it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sling:
Well new addition of ffu in base has to be playing a part on why tweak isn't proving full effect.

I have it installed on cleanrom 4.8 and it works intermittently. I can confirm it idles at 200mhz instead of going into deep sleep, but sometimes it still takes a little for the screen to come on. Battery life has definitely taken a hit too, but I still make it through the day.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leonkleonk:
Hi,

I need helps related to an LG LTE2 F160L that I just receive as a gift from a very nice Korean friend. He just gave me that phone before he left Bali back to Korea. But, stupidly I don't even tried to use the phone before he left. So when I tried to activate the phone, well I couldn't do anything because the phone ask me, I guess, for a google account user name and the password. I'm not so sure because the phone was set in Korean languange and letters that I couldn't even understand it! When I push the back menu, the phone returns to the locked home screen and when I swipe it to unlock, it will take me back to that email password all over again, and it such a disaster that I don't even have his email adress! What a bad kind of a friend I am:(

What can I do over this situation? I never use an Android-flatformed smartphone before. I love this phone so much, even though I can't get into it yet, so far.

Just can't wait to explore this manly smartphone. So please help me to fix this problem. Any idea of you will be very, very appreciated.

Thank you very much and I'm so sorry so much for my bad english..

Thank you.

Note: I don't mind to lose all the data and back to factory setting as long as I would be able to use the phone. I have tried to hard reset it with buttons according to some website but nothing works! Help!

clarification

Hello, this may be outdated since your post was dated april 2013. I actually have this phone and would be glad to help you. If my understanding is correct, your problem is that you cannot explore the device because it is in korean language? my fox for this is to pull down the status bar from the homescreen and then you will see the icon for the setting. Just click that and the settings menu will appear. Once you are in the settings, scroll down and look for the icon with the letter "A". press that and a new menu will open, press the 1st menu on the top and then you find there the choices for language. look for english and press it. Hope this help! Good Luck with the phone, it is indeed a great phone. PM me if you already fix your problem. There will be more problems after that like the limit in SMS and some korean language that are still showing..

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] shelnes:
I've put together a recovery-flashable zip of the classic haters gonna hate gif. I've personally tested this on my Galaxy S III and it works perfect. If everything blows up on your phone, don't blame it on me. You know the risks you're taking by flashing stuff.

Instructions:

1. Download to your phone's SD card

2. Flash in recovery

3. Reboot from recovery.

4. Enjoy the Haters gonna hate bootanimation on your Galaxy S III

For those of you who wish to know, the bootanimation is flashed to /data/local rather than /system/media.

To install manually with Root Explorer, etc. :

1. Download and extract the CWM flashable boot animation file below

2. In the extracted file, navigate to /data/local and copy the bootanimation.zip file

3. Navigate to the root of your SD card

4. Go to /data/local and paste the file there OR alternatively /system/media, overwriting any old boot animation (please backup your old boot animation if you wish to revert soon). Please note that /data/local is the first place that the OS looks for a boot animation. Any boot animation placed in /data/local will override a boot animation placed in /system/media.

5. Reboot and enjoy

This SHOULD work on any device with a 720x1280 resolution. If you flash this on phone other than a Galaxy S III, you do so at your own risk.

Please note: Image in OP is not actual size due to resizing issues. The actual boot animation will fit perfectly in the screen. Enjoy!

Get the file here!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imilleson:
Is there a reason you want it to use less? It has 2 GB of RAM and in my experience it never uses it all. So Android has an interesting way of managing RAM but trust it that it will purge the assets when it needs them. If you keep clearing RAM with task managers it tends to drain the battery . And one more thing, TouchWiz uses more RAM than AOSP / AOKP...

Oops my bad. I use the app which doesn't show the signature. As for RAM, 700/1024 really isn't bad. That still leaves plenty. The OS can handle purging of assets and flushing the RAM

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flexdog:
Firstly, it is impossible to increase your physical RAM capacity.

Secondly, empty RAM is useless. Look it up on Google.

Lastly, you could change the OOM values by using a script like V6 Supercharger to increase the minimum free RAM, or you can change it yourself with an app like ROM Toolbox on the Play store.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidPlant:
That actualy is not much ram. But if you are really worried

then get Clean Master; https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleanmaster.mguard&hl=en

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imilleson:

Good battery draining rom

Unfortunately you will not get great battery life as the HD2 is a power hungry phone with a battery that is too small for the phone. You will find most roms are similar despite what people might claim. Try setcpu or similar to improve battery life. Try currentwidget to monitor how much power the phone uses especially with the screen off in standby - you should be looking at 5ma or below. If you get more than a day with moderate usage you will be lucky.

and works fine to do the back-up and the restore of the system.

Now I tried to install various version of CM10.1 but no one works ,always staked at the same point (asus boot logo).

Script is 80% ready, it just need more checks to make it safer and some testing.

Should work on CM10.1, and it wipes extsdcard.
