[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Yeah right,a premium device sucks more than a mainstream. do you realise what you are saying?it's like ,man,go for renault,not mercedes.

Again,why would i need updates if the original software has no issues?just for the sake to say,hey,i have the latest firmware.no visible improvements,but,what the heck,i have the latest.

To be honest, gesture ui from lg is the smoothiest experience compared to similar devices from major competitors(s3,onex).heck,compared with a nexus 4,which is the "pure" android experience,there is no difference.an i compared some flagships,not medium devices.if you advice someone to go for mainstream,it means you never had such devices.in order to trully enjoy android experience,you need at least dual core,1gb ram,decent gpu and at qhd or more display.

Tell me what mainstream device meets all these requirements.

Camera solution:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2065799

I will admit, camera is not as good as other devices, but that tweak offered by Epic_ actually helps greatly with clarity/quality.

Battery:

Root and unlock your phone using universal root / manual + FreeGee.

Install Titanium Backup - remove the bloatware (LG MLT in particular)

Install Greenify - greenify your apps

Disable Fast Dormancy..

Battery life is insane after doing all this. Phone deep sleeps properly.. 2 hours screen time so far, wifi always on / 3g + data on and I'm on 75%, which is on par if not beats the other "mainstream devices" - (SGS3, One X..)

The build quality of this phone is also amazing - observe this drop test of the phone.. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cj_F_qc5cds

I actually don't mind that there isn't a lot of ROM development for this phone.. I actually really like LG's stock offering. QSlide is actually quite useful.

And this is coming from me who came from a Nexus S lol :P

Hide SoftKeys!!

Hi

I will tell you how hide your soft bar permanently

open your build prop and in the end paste that qemu.hw.mainkeys=1

Reboot........

you are done!!!

why hide?? simple..... when you use lmt launcher the control appear over the softkeys and whit this modification the controls of lmt will appear in the bottom of your screen

if you wanna go back just delete the lines that you wrote in the build prop.....

the build prop is in system

Lame!

You are a newbie, aren't you?

Much better solution: Install one of the countless CM based ROMs, click "Expanded Desktop", then the navbar goes away.

Then install "GMD GestureControl". Much better than using this tedious pie navigation.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] creep138:
Maybe he likes cm10 over the other based ROMs off it. So no lame.

And anyway, expanded desktop takes away the notification area as well. One reason I still hate pie. I know I can gesture it up still, just so annoying.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] alonsoch:
When i was in stock rom i use that instructions..... Because really like pie but i dont wanna lost stock ROM.... Maybe i`m not the only one

And yes...... I use a ROM based in cm
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Westervoort:
I used the same method on stock to hide the navigation bar, but keep the status bar. This also in combination with lmt launcher. Works perfect indeed and entirely free of charge.

Now I'm on cyanogenmod 10.1 so expanded desktop is actually a better way to hide the navigation bar (in settings you can select to keep the status bar). I prefer lmt launcher over cyanogen's pie though.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] rbboy:
greetings!

i presently have a

xda 1 here in the philippines

rom version: 3.14.17 ENG

radio version: 4.16

protocol version: 32S54

my question is, is it advisable or necessary to upgrade my rom version to the new version found at 02 official site? i already downloaded it but i haven't installed it yet.

i've learned in the forums the golden rule that DON'T TOUCH THE RADIO VERSION AS LONG AS IT WORKS. so i will not ask bout the radio version anymore.

please help me...thanks!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Biso007:
if you can extract the ROM upgrade files only, then it's OK to go to any WM2003 ROM
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] rbboy:
my device is only WM2002. does it matter? is it ok to upgrade the ROM to the latest version 3.20.06?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Ian G:
I upgraded mine last night - there are a few subtle differences.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Biso007:
ROM 3.20 is PPC2002 not a WM2003 ... you can upgrade to 4.01.16 if you still want WM2003 ROM

Once again, don't touch the RSU!! ... play with the ROM only :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] rbboy:
thanks guys!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] rbboy:
sorry guy's another question cause for everybody's info im just a newbie and i'm scared of messin up my phone. anyway, i've read problems with the synchronization or restoring data on the phone after upgrading the ROM here in the forums. will i just follow the steps given by myxda.com? or i really need to back up my ROM to an SD still?

sorry guys just wanna make sure. thanks!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Biso007:
it's strongly recommended to backup the current ROM to SD card ... I mean the backup option in the bootloader menu not the xbackup utility

Hello, I bought the AT&T S4 today and it's pretty great. I've been disappointed by the performance, but that is obviously a software issue that will be more than fixed with roms.

Anyway, one of my favorite features is the amazing camera; however, every time I exit the app, the camera settings change. This includes: Picture size (megapixels), flash, video stabilization, and others.

Is there any fix, (or change), for this? It is driving me insane xP

i just got my zerolemon, and was wondering if anyone has tried attaching the wireless receiver (for Qi charging) at the back of the battery.

Will the wireless charger pad still work over the TPU cover of the zerolemon?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xartic12:
I'm sure it would work if you extended the terminals so they reach. Having perseus kernel installed could help increase your charge rate, depending on your receiver and charging pad.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] karlonicolas:
i know theoretically it should work but i'm concerned with the thickness of the TPU material and whether it will permit inductive charging.

has anyone here actually tried this?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xartic12:
There's a note 2 wireless charging thread that someone just posted in saying a Panasonic qi receiver worked with a body glove tpu case. If that is about the same thickness, then you be the judge.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] phoneAphoria:
The touch screen/digitzer is borked on my EVO LTE: the notification area is totally unresponsive. I've done all of the steps re: touch panel drivers, etc and it doesn't help. There are also other symptoms.

It's still under warranty. At one Sprint store they said they'll fix it for $50. HTC said they'll fix it for free as a warranty repair but I have to ship to them and it could take 2 weeks - way too long for me to be without a phone for work, etc.

Anyone know how hard it is to replace the digitzer (assuming I can the part for a good price)? I have a lot experience fixing iPods and I'm thinking it can't be that hard if the kid at the Sprint store can do it in 30 min.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Use the ROM for recovery or cleanup batch. Make sure to backup data from internal SD card.

Another ROM from CWM should work though. Make sure to wipe data and cache.

I did that and STUPID ME i forgot to backup the old rom, but then all problems started .

except for 1 rom they all give me a white screen at boot after flashing the talkingmobi roms.

The rom i have flashed now also doesn't work. When i boot the phone i get a android with rockets,

then a android snake with the letters android, twice, and then phone shuts off or sometimes bootloop.

I am unable to get into the phone and also i can't get into recovery. i can press buttons al i want but nothing happens.

is there any software that can let XDAII do the same thing?

FM is analog signals places typical around 100Mhz
