I already feel we have more than enough of basically the same thing. All jb roms are fairly similar in look and their guts....aside from tw vs aosp.

Sent from my cell phone telephone....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackangst:
That's the nature of the beast though. Sure, all the tw roms share similarity, but so do the other forks of android...aokp and cm. The differences are under the hood and not visual.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
Actually I think the difference between aokp and cm are visuals. Ie customizations..

We have many choices, but as far as originality it seems most, not ALL, share more or less the same features. Today I just found out the evo 4g just had digital karma Rom updated within the last few months and that phone is ancient. As far as that phone went, sense roms differed GREATLY from one another. Aosp was about the same build no matter who baked it.

I'm not saying there aren't choices, but compared to an almost 5 year old device, this receives less love. But again, the base for jellybean was just recently released so I'll be checking, but it just seems every Rom I've been flashing is about the same.

Unfortunately for me, I'm limited to twiz roms because I need Wi-Fi calling due to poor reception at my house. I understand this is a framework feature, but compared to free alternatives, the tmobile version is hands down best voip option there is it seems.

I didn't rush out to grab this phone, but money at the time was tight and this was all I could afford, I had already gone 3+ months without a phone on Sprint due to the plan being rather pricy age their customer support blows. But in all honesty, this phone isn't too different from its older brother. The pros are so very minimal its really not that big of a difference speed wise. Perhaps more stable, but hardware wise its practically the same
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobbyphoenix:
I was sort of thinking it was leveling off until the official JB was released, and then it exploded. I can't keep track of all the new ROMs, kernel, and tweaks that are coming out daily. It's awesome to own this phone still. I love it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Naturesretard:
It might just be me then. Used to another norm. Guess inside I just miss my Evo.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BenKranged:
We have multiple 4.2.2 roms with nightly builds being released. What more do you need?

Pick from either TW or CM base

We dont really need 20 different roms that are the same thing with different theming

Which is all alot of roms are
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] me_is_rushin:
+1

With this phone it's really simple. Need wifi calling? If no, then go for 4.2.2 any of the popular ones (and we have virtually all of them!!!) are getting into milestones and are imo very stable DD material. Plus lately we've seen some awesome kernels pop up for them.

If you do need wifi calling, then stick with any TW 4.1.2 rom. Now they won't have a whole lot of improvements over stock, because we just got JB and source so give it some time. But soon you will see constant improvements for at least a few months until devs reach the point where there isn't really much to add to the rom...and probably waiting begins for TW 4.2 :rolleyes:

If you're looking for visual variety then I would suggest alternative launchers, LMT, launcher themes, rom themes, etc. Whether TW, Sense, AOSP, etc there really isn't a limit to how you make your phone feel and look.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rymanh:
I agree.. As long as we have a few different flavors of , TW, Aosp and MIUI there really isn't a need for a whole lot more.. We have some talented devs here that give this devise a lot of love..

If you're looking for something that looks different then grab an aosp based Rom and throw on one of the countless themes from the play store.. I can change the entire look of my phone in 5 minutes
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Lots of different looking launchers and launcher themes now days too. I'm using smart launcher lately ....very different ...smooth too. ;)

Sent from my cell phone telephone....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rymanh:
Agree..

The possibilities are totally endless, I understand what it's like to be a flashaholic but there really is a ton of options for this phone already..

I'm on aokp and today I have a Sense 5 theme on my phone.. Tomorrow.. Who knows what I'll have. Maybe I'll flash MIUI and use some theme that's way out there..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I don't care for a million roms. I usually stick with 3 or 4 devs who's work I like and bounce around their roms. On stock 4.1.2 at the moment....but once ptmr3 and onlychevy and a couple others get 4.1.2 really tweaked....I'll be on those. Prefer touchwiz now....seems more smooth to me and has a few things aosp doesn't have. Just a preference for now....but like aosp too!

The Nexus 7 has tonnes, and I run it stock 4.2.2! Lol

Sent from my cell phone telephone....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rymanh:
I go back n forth between the 2 types.. Eventually I'll get tired of Aosp and go back to TW
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] me_is_rushin:
Stock on a Nexus!? You should be hung sir. lol jk, ;)

I have the zl for almost 2 weeks and I find it weird that I can't change the lock screen wallpaper I tried the settings to do that but it doesn't change??? Plus the camera in the setting it shows only 12mp, 9mp... to chosse??i can't find the 13mp option or is just a sony gimmick?
[Sony Xperia ZL] randy_c:
I have the same problem and posted a question but I guess nobody knows why we can't change lock screen wallpaper. So strange
[Sony Xperia ZL] Q.Entity:
The lockscreen wallpaper is lioely a bug...

Sendt fra min ZL 6506
[Sony Xperia ZL] nutzuTo:
What about the camera??do u have 13mp to choose from the menu??
[Sony Xperia ZL] randy_c:
Nope
[Sony Xperia ZL] Jtu89:
Pick normal mode instead of superior auto. Also be sure that HDR is disabled. That'll give you 13MP resolution.
[Sony Xperia ZL] trickyhenry:
I can change my lock screen. Setting /display / lock screen

Hope this helps.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Q.Entity:
Negative here. 6506 Rooted. Are you rooted? Curious...
[Sony Xperia ZL] trickyhenry:
Not rooted
[Sony Xperia ZL] nutzuTo:
Maybe is a bug in 6506
[Sony Xperia ZL] nutzuTo:
Thx for the tip :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] betsuni:
I've got the US 6506 and it is there (settings/display/lock screen/wallpaper) and not rooted.
[Sony Xperia ZL] nutzuTo:
I know is there but did u try to add a wallpaper to the lock screen and see if is there?? :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] betsuni:
Yep, changed it to a Lamborghini just fine. ^^ Actually it is still there after the memory card died which is sort of funny.
[Sony Xperia ZL] nutzuTo:
Probably u root it, cuz my bell version doesn't work or u have the rogers version
[Sony Xperia ZL] betsuni:
Nope on both. As I posted before, I have the US 6506 and not rooted. Perhaps this is something Bell did to the OS (if they did anything). :(
[Sony Xperia ZL] nutzuTo:
Maybe but seams like u are the only one who doesn't have this issue on the C6506
[Sony Xperia ZL] betsuni:
Just did some research and found out that Bell and Rogers both locked their phones to the carrier. That might be your problems with this feature seeing that any messing with firmwares can often break things. Or carriers requesting certain features being left out or turned off.

Might want to talk with your carrier and see if this is something that they know about.
[Sony Xperia ZL] wingzero2085:
He's not the only one. I can change my lockscreen wallpaper on the factory unlocked 6506 as well. For kicks, I just did using an image that was stored on my microsd card. ;) No problems.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Crash338:
I'm using Rogers Xperia ZL and I have no problem with the changing of the wallpaper's lockscreen. My phone is a C6506 but I flashed it with the 434 build and rooted the phone. I dont think I ever tried to change the wallpaper while on the Rogers firmware since I flashed it the day I got it.

where to classify if release in Asia?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xstayxposix:
According to this thread here, you should be able to use this subforum.

The thread states that the m7_u (the Asia release variant) can flash m7_ul based ROMs, I assume the unlock and root method would be the same.

That's what I drew from that thread, if I am wrong, someone correct me please. :good:

Hey guys,

I rooted my Nexus 4 successfully, and I tried rooting my Samsung Nexus, but I ran into some errors. I can't get into recovery mode to install CWM or ParanoidAndroid. Any suggestions as to where I went wrong, and how to go back a step or even load up the stock image?

Here's a video of what happens /watch?v=nMUNkV5IluA [1:28] just add this extension to youtube
[General Questions and Answers] snapple232:
I'm currently trying to decide which carrier to go with for the Galaxy S4. I'm leaning towards Verizon, but I'm also considering AT&T because their non-shared family plan is cheaper if you go with less minutes. But I'm worried that their service might still suck, because we were with them until a few years ago and there were a lot of dropped calls, delayed text messages, etc. They also get rated poorly in Consumer Reports and other surveys. So I'm wondering if it's worth giving it a shot and hoping their service has improved, or if I should just go with Verizon.

There are three areas specifically that my family is at the most: Princeton, NJ and Brooklyn, NY and Flushing, NY. I'd love to hear from anyone with recent experience with AT&T in or around those three areas. Any experiences from people in the general tri-state area and New York City would also be great.
[General Questions and Answers] snapple232:
Do you have any problems with dropped calls or other issues like that?
[General Questions and Answers] xavierfox42:
No, the service is fine. No real problems to speak of. As expected for a major carrier in an urban area.

NICS™ ROM FAQ Section

Q. Not able to change lock screen?

A. Use NICS remount app to mount /system partition to RW and change lock screen using Lock screen changer.

Q. SystemUI is slow ?

A. This is issue with v8.1 systemUI. If you don't like it, we will remove this systemUI and will use v7.1

Q. Device becoming slow, what to do ?

A. let the device boot twice after installation of ROM. Let it set for 15 min. It will be smooth. It has some scripts to load on boot and each time it takes 20-35 sec after boot.

Q. I can't add widgets on home screen, what to do ?

A. This is xperia Z launcher problem. Only packaged widgets provided by me can be used.

Q. ROM can't boot.

A. This is problem with some kernels. ROM works fine with KrSH kernel. I will fix other kernels soon in next release.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] copperpotuk:
The standard text alerts on the XDA 2 are dull and to quiet for me to hear, does anyone know how to change them to my own desired one?? i have managed to change ring tones.

Also can anyone recommend a good battery meter that is displayed on the screen like a normal phone that i can obtain??
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] copperpotuk:
Using my own text alert?

Contacted O2 and they have said:

To change the Text alert tone, you'll need the relevant 'WAV' file stored within the Windows directory (you can do this via File Explorer)

Once the WAV file is stored in the Windows directory, you should then be able to select the tone in the drop down for New SMS Message:

Start, Settings, Sounds & Notifications, Notifications, select the Event as 'Inbox: New SMS Message' - then underneath the drop down with the sound should then have the new WAV file. I did this for my XDA II and worked ok.

and also battery meter,

very small file that shows power in % in corner "Battery Monitor 2.0" www.pda.com (can also be found free on e-mule sites etc)

Good luck, they work fine on my XDA 2 and now I can sit back and relax :D

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ew0kfarmer:
So i just moved from Jelly Beans build 14 to Liquidsmooth 2.2, which totally wrecked the way my sd card is set up. I didn't like what was happening on smooth, so I tried going back to my CM backup, which could not be found. I then noticed that I had new folders, which I assume were created due to the multi user thing on 4.2.

Now I cannot restore my backup, nor do my titanium backups show up when i try to restore all my apps. Is there a fix or this or am I **** out of luck?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] faehsemc:
Just cut everything from you farthest /0 folder and paste in on the root directory. You nandroids and titanium backups will return. If u want to get rid of the /0 folders all together you'll have to wipe the internal memory. Beware to back up anything not on your external SD. I recommend to make future backups to external SD if u use 4.2x roms.. Or use twrp

Sent from my MIUI powered S3 thanks to StrumerJohn
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] priddyma:
If you flash a 4.2.2 ROM, TWRP only reads the files on sdcard/0/ so if you have files on sdcard/ it will not be able to see them as it only accesses the emulated storage.

Use a root file browser to get to the area you want to change.
