[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 20mmrain:
I am on smoothrom v5.0 using lean kernel and while I am new to the android modding community I tried 4 or 5 kernel/ROM combos before I decided on this combo. I will say I noticed my quadrant scores increase from 3600 to 4600 w/o over clocking and my battery life increased by a decent bit. I son,t know the exact increase but it was noticeable to me over stock setup.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flaviocc:
20mmrain,

thanks,

Stock rom i think its ok to me, but i´m open mind.

Kernel for me its more important. I´ll take a look on this.

Tks.

Suggestion- read the kernel threads in the development forum and come to your own informed opinion.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 20mmrain:
Hey no problem..... Give it a look..... I am not sure if you will get the same effect using stock ROM with leankernel nor am I sure you can even use the lean kernel with the stock ROM by itself. I know they have a thread here at XDA for this kernel maybe someone there can let you know.

I did it. And so I decided to ask the opinion. Most of what I read is always settings for experts, which I am not.

And do not want to spam the same question over all kernel threads.

Feel free to report without problems. :good:

OT: i´m from BR and love your State, Florida, very beatiful place !

Tks for your answers! i`ll test.

Ged, :good:

I know that, and far way from me open a thread like that.

just wondering what is the simplest kernel, next stock, delivery parameters without the need for various tweaks!

Ask to ear the users opinions. I think sometimes simplicity can be the better choice, especially for non-expert like me. :D

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sonny82:
ok so last week i was on here saying that i was having problems flashing roms to my phone. found out that because im s-on (also my hboot is 2.09) most roms i have to flash the kernal. so i was told to get the app flash image gui. i got it, flashed the kernal, it worked, but...... after the rom loaded my touch didnt work. i couldnt unlock the phone at all. so i went back to the previous rom. i tried another rom using the flash image gui and it did the same thing. it was as if the touch imput was gone. any reason why this happened? something i did wrong? thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
What ROM did you flash and what version of TWRP are you on? If you took the latest OTA to software version 3.16 then you also got an update to the touch panel. Unless you get S-off and downgrade the touch panel, you have to use 3.16 ROM's and TWRP 2.4+.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sonny82:
the rom is jewel_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v22.0.1_20130401-180210.zip im using the TWRP 2.4 but flashing to 2.5 now
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Like fin said, if you had the 3.16 ota on your device, the new touch panel drivers won't allow you to use PAC, you can't use anything but 3.16 based sense ROMs. You really will need to get s-off to enjoy your device. Good luck.

Somebody have a Rom for Gionee Pioner 3G,please ! help me..

I did search Google very much but not found it. : (: (
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] marscook:
I have received this error after flashing Carbon, Paranoid, and Jellybam. Before flashing the roms, I reset to factory, wipe cache and dalvik. After flashing, I wipe cache and dalvik again. After the reboot, I let it sit for at least 10 minutes before rebooting again. I then enter the Google login, download mybackuppro from the play store, and restore the apps and data. Once that's finished, I can not see the apps in the drawer. When I try to install anything else from the play store, get the error " unknown error code during application install - 110".

Ive Googled the error, but none of the fixes that I've found worked.

Please help.

BTW, I can flash some other roms without trouble, like liquids smooth and hellfire.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RKngel:
Okay, I have some problems with my S3. Running on task650's AOKP 4.2.2 Jellybean and Ktoonsez's KT747, for some information.

I found that I pretty much cannot charge my phone for any reason whatsoever. I plug in the USB, doesn't charge. Wiggle it around, plug it back in, charges for a bit, then disconnects once again. Even then, when it stays connected, the charging speed is just incredibly slow.

I have done a complete wipe, flashed ROM and everything again, and this issue persists. However, another issue arrive: I get a beeping, cracking sound from the speakers when I play games. It sounds almost like popping. I'm not sure if it's like this right after I flash it, but when I restore data, that is what happens.

I have considered having a shop take a look at my phone, but my phone is rooted and stuff, thus removing warranty. Is it true that you get warranty back if you revert to stock and unroot? If so, I would kindly ask for someone to direct me somewhere for help, as I just joined and am fairly clueless.

Has anyone ever experienced these issues? Is there a way to fix this, or should I bring it in to a shop?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
i'm assuming you've tried another usb cable and/or are using the one that came with the phone? when did this issue begin? before or after rooting/flashing? it could also be the connector in the device.

when you restore data, are you restoring system data?

there's a link in my signature that details unrooting procedures near the bottom of post #2. check it out for the sake of checking it out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
These cords are cheap and that's how the act when they are dying. Is the poping audio a known bug with tasks 4.2.2.?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RKngel:
Yes, you assume correctly. It started after my phone died once... My phone has been rooted and on AOKP for months with no problem. Sure, I always had battery drain issues, but tolerable. Now, I've gotten 3% charge in 2 hours.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Odin back to stock and factory reset with beer's guide. See if it persists. You can easily return to stock for warranty
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RKngel:
Also, Beer, I restore system data, but the popping sound started after I just restored user data. And what do you mean by the connector in the device? That could be the cause of the problem?

Alright, I'll see. If it does, what should I do? Send it in to Samsung, or go to a AT&T place?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sasuke2388:
When I used the latest Liquid Smooth rom it also gave me a popping type sound when i play a game. But after reverting back to an older rom, the sound was fine. Could be cause of the latest kernel. =/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
do you always restore system apps/data? i've seen lots of users with device issues because they do this. not saying its the cause of your problems, just passing the information along

by connector i mean the actual usb port on the device.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RKngel:
Sasuke: Quite possibly, because after I went back to my 3/13 backup, it was perfectly fine. I don't think the 3.4 Linux was out yet, was it?

Beer: I normally never restore system, as I knew it would cause problems, discovered by experience. Then I read that if it's the same ROM, then it would be fine. I never had a need to restore anything anyways, it started after I did a wipe to see if it would solve the issue of not charging. Oh, I see, then yes, there's a possibilty that that's it.
[Continuum General] Jaggar345:
Stumbled upon this information about the play store and decided to jump into it on my dna. The new look they gave the play store looks really nice in my opinion. So far I don't think anyone has gotten the update from Google yet they must be holding out on rolling it out, as I haven't gotten it on my nexus 7 yet. The new version runs quick and reminds me of the 2.x version. Just thought I would let you guys know about it over here. :D

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dhostetter:
I flashed TWRP 2.5 and then flashed Task's AOKP 4/9 ROM and everything went down hill from there. The phone kept rebooting after a minute or so, so I did a factory reset and reflashed the ROM. That didn't help, it actually made it worse in that it would not get past the kernel splash screen. So I did another wipe and the same thing. I wiped again and flashed an older version of AOKP 4/5 and again would only get to the kernel splash. After another hour or so I decided I'll just go back to rooted stock, so using Odin 3 3.07 I flashed my trusted root69.stock_ATT_I747UCALG1 image and now it just stays on the Samsung screen.

I've run out of thoughts on what the hell is the problem and thought I'd ask.

Anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to get this paper weight working again?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KorGuy123:
Not sure about the problem with aokp. But your bootloop just pull the battery, reinstall battery, go into stock recovery, factory reset and voilà
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
This will do it. Flashing back to 4.0.4 will bootlopp until you factory reset in stock recovery
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drock212:
Same thing happened to me. Boot loop with 4/9 AOKP task so I Odin to the same file as you but that ran just fine. I would try to Odin again.

Oh and after stock with root I flashed 4/9 and all was good. By chance did you have custom boot animation?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dhostetter:
Yes I had a custom boot image.

Getting ready to factory reset and reboot. Hope all goes well.....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drock212:
I think it's the custom boot causing this issue. Anyway good luck. I know my heart skipped a beat when my phone would boot loop while to get into recovery. Once I Odined back to stock with root first/only thing I downloaded was goomanager and installed TWRP then flashed 4/9.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dhostetter:
I'm back up and running again. A little embarrassed I forgot the factory reset last night.

Thanks for the reminder!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mymusicathome:
AOKP is a great ROM.

When flashing ROMs always follow these steps and you will be fine.

1- nandroid backup

2- format system

3- wipe cache

4- wipe Dalvik

5- factory reset.

Most suggest doing each 3 times.

6- install ROM and reboot

7- flash gapps

Let sit for 10 minutes.

Follow those instructions and everything will be fine.

Hi I am looking for a case that will plug into the microusb and provide an alternate port. The port being the weakness on every mobile device by plugging/unplugging all the time. Ive lost more than 1 phone this way. i just want to preserve the life of my Nexus. I dont mind if it increases the length overall. Has anyone heard of such a thing?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] E15i:
Here is how I solved it, I have:

1. Asus Nexus 7 Dock

2. Sena Ultraslim pouch

So if I need to charge, it easy to remove the tablet from it, as for transferring files, I use wifi or Google Drive, simple as that.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Troute:
Maybe I'm lucky, I've never broken a charging socket on a phone....but...the idea of a socket extension on a case is a great one. I've had to 'mod' a few charger plugs to get them to fit into the space left by case manufacturers around the socket.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Acela1230:
do you mean something like the battery pack cases for phones cause I have never seen one for any tablet. You could get an otg cable and mod a case to hold it in place to do what you want I believe.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] craigviar:
Yeah I've thought about doing that but was hoping for something more professional. Also I use a $35 seido case (already broke 2 N7's so I need the heavy case), would have to buy a second one to extend it to make the mod, with a good chance of doing a bad job of it and wasting $70. :)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] E15i:
I still don't get it, according to Wikipedia, micro USB port, can handle like 10000 cycles of connect/disconnect, and will be fine..so how do you destroy them?

quote:

"The newer Micro-USB receptacles are designed for up to 10,000 cycles of insertion and removal between the receptacle and plug, compared to 1,500 for the standard USB and 5,000 for the Mini-USB receptacle. This is accomplished by adding a locking device and by moving the leaf-spring connector from the jack to the plug, so that the most-stressed part is on the cable side of the connection. This change was made so that the connector on the less expensive cable would bear the most wear instead of the more expensive micro-USB device"
[Nexus 7 Accessories] craigviar:
My HTC Thunderbolt disagrees. Ive been having to swap the battery 3 times a day for the past year, using external chargers. For a while I could still connect to PC with a usb cable, not to charge but for file transfers, but now I can't do that either.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] calaski8123:
OK I HAVE searched the forums, but it seems this is a combination of a bad battery and/or the sudden death problem, however, the phone is less than 6 months old, the problems have all of a sudden appeared and I was able to get the phone back up an running so now I don't know what to think.

In the past week, I have noticed my GS3 just completely shuts off without warning even though it displays the battery at about 20%. When I plug it in and restart the phone, it shows 0% and charging. This has happened about 5 times now in the past week or so. Today, it happened again, but I was in the car. I tried to use my friend's car charger and it didn't seem to work. The phone kept buzzing like it wanted to turn on or charge but it wouldn't. I got home after a few hours and plugged it in. I tried to start it and it got past the SAMSUNG screenand then to the splash screen but it hung at the splash screen and would not boot up. I tried several times to boot, did a battery pull, even wipes the caches. No luck. Finally I went into recovery and did a complete wipe and restored a backup from March. I got the phone back up and running and all my apps are updated.

Does this make any sense?

Why all of a sudden would the phone misrepresent the battery life at 20% when its 0%?

Why would this 20% issue only start this week?

Why would the phone not even be able to boot up after going to 0%?

A bad battery seems unlikely since the phone is less than six months old and the sudden death issue is unlikely because I was able to restore with a recovery backup.

Any help would be appreciated. I am running Synergy ROM Nightly JB (r169) and the kernel is ziggy@tardis #011013 from January 10, 2013.

Hi thanks for the reply, but I'm pretty sure wiping the battery stats doesn't actually do anything. I'm not sure why there would be the option to do it in the first place but most battery issue posts in the forums indicate that wiping battery stats is a falacy.

Out of curiosity, why are you still on 169?

443 is out, and running real nice ;)

With that being said, if this is an OEM battery (or if it's not,) it could be that the battery is the issue.

I always have a couple of spare OEM batteries on hand for extra juice if the need arises, and they come in handy if I ever have to isolate a battery issue.

You can always pick one up for about $20, and see if it is your original battery which is the culprit.

Btw, here is pretty much the gold standard on batteries.

It is an excellent reference, makes for some good reading, and can come in handy ;)

It includes a whole lotta info on Lithium ion batteries, which is the chemistry used in modern cell phones/smartphones, and a lot of other applications.

Also, I have Google Wallet working well without any issues and I did not want to screw up Wallet by upgrading. I'm waiting for 4.2 to come out with Touch Wiz (I actually like TW) and then I will upgrade... unless there is a new feature I'm not aware of?

I I am running the newest mean bean and firmware updates. I have a problem with wifi losing connection overnight and I'll turn on on the screen and it will show 3G connection and then switch wifi on. Also sometimes when I plug in car charger it will show ? In battery icon. I have a factory reset with a clean install and still comes back with the wifi problem. If I leave the wifi on it will suck my battery down like it's constantly searching for a connection. I can't seem to fix it but my wifes phone has the same setup as I do but she has no problem.if I leave the phone on 3G only it will not suck the battery down. I'm thinking its a kernel problem or a hardware radio problem. I was thinking about running the latest ruu 3.16 and return it to stock to see if this correct the problem. That would be a big pain in the ass. I'm thinking I need to take it in to sprint, but I think they would just blame it on custom ROM problems. any suggestions on how to fix or how should I go about having sprint fix it with a rooted custom ROM. Thank you for the help.
