[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthony062991:
Thank you! I will save the zip for backup. It will be much easier then rebooting 8 times.

That is what I was messing with. The "/system" files. I deleted some stock apps and it did not restored itself after a reboot? I am really shocked that it did not reboot itself back to its default. Last time i deleted an app from the /system it restored back to default. I used the latest Es File Explorer.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
It could be that ES File Explorer did not really delete them. You have to set /system to r/w before deleting works.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthony062991:
I did R/W to the entire system. I deleted voice recording and then i forget the other apps, but it was all the system. I rebooted and it was completely out of the system. I am going to try to make google apps to work with stock rooted without it restoring itself after a reboot?

Edit:

I was on 2.0.6 Firmware if that means anything?

Edit:

You can edit /system/app but not anything else.

I install gapps and rebooted just fine and it kept all my stuff without it restoring itself..

Thanks

Wow, it is useful for me !thanks
[Nexus 4 General] myturbo1:
Anyone else really happy they got the nexus 4 instead of S4 or ONE ?

Pure android aside'.

I'm saying this cause all the issues & what not that the S4 & ONE seem to be having.

Just noticing a lot of issues with both!

Neither have lived up to all the hype about them!

I wanted the one . but didn't want to wait so i got the N4 ...

Note that I have held the one in my hands , it's a nice phone, its aluminum . but just seems cheap. Not nearly as cool or nice as what 'I' expected.
[Nexus 4 General] eminembdg:
I've always wanted a nexus because of it being pure Google Android. I'm happy I finally got one. I love the phone.

It's kind of early to say the one and s4 have "a lot" of issues. The s4 from at&t has an unlockable bootloader, that's a bummer but not a shocker. It was said to be locked before it was released. I haven't heard of issues with the one. But that's just me.

Every phone has its "issues". It really boils down to if you personally like the hardware, looks, and software

[Nexus 4 General] omnius1:
I really strongly dislike the buttons layout and skins on both so I'm glad to have my nexus 4 until something better than either comes out
[Nexus 4 General] lucasleal:
I do like my Nexus 4 but in my case its all about updates and support. Here in Brazil its common to NEVER receive updates. When the updates are supposed to be released the brand already have another new phone that they want you to buy instead of just update your phone.

Most of the people here does not even know what a Nexus is. When people asks me about my phone is funny because when I say "Nexus 4" I can see the "wtf is that" face.

S4 and ONE are like iPhone mania, Nexus 4 is the real deal, pure android for Android Nerds an Maniacs...

So happy, I have 8 GB too cloud works flawless for music and movies, I have all apps I need and have nearly 4gb free...
[Nexus 4 General] PARADOX-SEV:
I am returning my HTC One as soon as my New Nexus 4 gets here. Hopefully tomorrow. Had is a week and miss pure android.
[Nexus 4 General] myturbo1:
Lol nice.. I littery just realized last night I'm not happy with any other phone.. I played with a bunch of androids , iPhones, windows phones yesterday .

They had cool features . some have a cool design. But for me that's as far as it went. I was bored within 5min of each.

I know I won't have the whole 'experience' within 5min . but that's all it took for me.
[Nexus 4 General] jiayit:
I REALLY REALLY REALLY like the One's design. Will probably get it if the next Nexus isn't made of metal, and root to run stock Android. I can't stand Sense :(
[Nexus 4 General] Underground_XI:
Super happy and excited for the new updates + pa cool stuff coming soon!!!
[Nexus 4 General] Freddan80:
I'm happy with my choice, I bought the N4 just some weeks ago. I simply love stock-Android, the looks, the feel about it. The phone is a tad to big for me though but even bigger phones I simply wouldn't buy.

[Nexus 4 General] myturbo1:
Only thing I don't like is the Holo theme. Lol
[Nexus 4 General] Maddmatt:
Happy with the Nexus. I've learned that I don't need gimmicky features which add no real value.

Nexus is fast, reliable and free of bloatware,

It's at the cutting edge of software thanks to updates direct from Google and it's the basis for custom ROM development.

Those were my main reasons for choosing it.

Maybe for average people the S4 or One would be a better fit, they are more practical in some ways such as having more storage and battery life. Samsung's and HTC's software does add value for some people but not for me, I just see gimmicks and stuff made to look pretty.

Samsung's smart pause and smart stay are cool innovations though.
[Nexus 4 General] 1cewolf:
The S4 and One are almost twice the price of a Nexus 4, but are they twice as good? Absolutely not. The Nexus 4 has more than enough power for most people, and you won't have to worry about whether the manufacturer will abandon it to focus on other devices.

The storage capacity is a bit of a bummer, but if you're clever, you'll find a way around it. I built a little server to house my music collection and use Subsonic to stream it. Other people I've seen use online music services or Internet radio. People are always coming up with new solutions in the Nexus community, and that's what I love about it - we've got a lot of bright minds here! :laugh:

Not that the other devices don't have their fair share of good developers, but Nexus devices are meant to foster experimentation.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] anon4129325:
Coming from a Nexus device, Google Wallet compatibility is definitely one of my major concerns here. I know that traditionally T-Mobile has not supported wallet and neither has Verizon. But all I had to do on my Galaxy Nexus was modify the build.prop file to enable wallet downloading and full functionality.

I know that you need two components to support Google Wallet: 1) NFC and 2) a 'secure' element. Now the HTC One obviously has NFC and the Sprint HTC One is confirmed Google Wallet compatible which means at least their version of the One has a secure element so hopefully ours does as well.

So do we know just how much hacking we're going to have to do to get Google Wallet access? Have we confirmed the T-Mobile version has a secure element?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Lookatthemonkeys:
I got a "Secured element" error when I tried it on mine. There is a thread on this topic here.

I also hope they get this working soon!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] anon4129325:
Hopefully soon. I think it's a ROM / compatibility issue.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Devi0124:
There was a version posted in the note 2 forums that worked. No tricks to install it anything. Just install the even non rooted . It (note 2) had the secure element issue too. Not sure if it would work but worth a shot.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jaee Geee:
For some reason I cant change my PRI, does anyone have any ideas that could help me. I changed it to the one that was in "Fix everything" but I updated to the latest firmware 2.98 and after that I couldn't change it back to the "Fix everything" one..:confused:

Im rooted and s-off on hboot 1.04.

Im on Nagelite Blurom

for the extra info
[Nexus 4 General] John Anderton:
This isn't meant to be a rumour monger thread but IO is coming up soon and that most probably means a new version of the OS. Be it 4.3 LKP (Lime Key Pie), 4.3 JB or 5.0 LKP, it doesn't matter. New stuff is going to be coming our way! :D

Wanted to get a feel of what people are doing to gear up. I'm guessing a lot of folks have their phones rooted. Quite a few of them have custom ROMs installed.

AFAIK, if you're on a non stock based ROM, you'll not get updates. In such a case, are you guys going back to stock are just going to wait for your favourite ROM to update?

If you're on a stock ROM which is rooted, you'll probably lose root (I had issues when I went from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2; not sure if this has been "fixed"). If you're going to be losing root, will you guys probably downgrade and wait the last 2 weeks or upgrade anyway?

My Answer: I'm on a custom ROM myself figuring I should downgrade to get the update. The ROM is MoDaCo's CM 10.1 based 'My Custom ROM'. Though it's got a "pretty stock feel", I have a feel I won't be getting any updates from Google cause it's CM10 based. If I'm wrong, please let me know.

The revert to stock post is a bit old, someone (may be me?) should write a better and clearer tutorial since I'm guessing a lot of users would want to downgrade now
[Nexus 4 General] respider:
I'll use new stock on my nexus 7 and keep using CM in my nexus 4 :victory:
[Nexus 4 General] hifonicy:
I think we will have 2/5 a new update... I tried to update my new nexus4 from 4.2 to the newes 4.2.2 and the message I saw was this in the picture... download until May 1

View attachment 1925859
[Nexus 4 General] John Anderton:
Interesting. I never saw that screen. Mine had downloaded over night and was ready to install both times (4.2 to 4.2.1 to 4.2.2).

They usually roll out the updates the morning of the IO keynote so my guess is the folks in the US should get the updates on the morning of the 16th. Those on the other side of the planet should see it in the night (or some time in the morning).
[Nexus 4 General] Scottyfer:
I was under the impression that we have to wait for someone attending I/O to upload the preview they push at the event.
[Nexus 4 General] hypersonicx:
I figure this also since this is what was done with the Galaxy Nexus.
[Nexus 4 General] Nethojs29:
When it comes I want to lock and get back to stock roms and everything. Why do I buy a nexus if I won't try vainilla android?

And sure after 2 weeks or so, maybe I'll look at cm 11 or carbon/pa getting the update of sources.

Hope android get away blue, I love it but some change be well received

[Nexus 4 General] hifonicy:
:D :D :D
[Nexus 4 General] Harry Pothead:
Depends on what 4.3/5.0 has to offer. If it doesn't impress me too much I'll wait for an updated version of AOKP, elsewise I'll switch to stock as soon as a rooted stock rom is available. I would prefer the second outcome :D
[Nexus 4 General] spamlucal:
That means that you can only download the update via wifi until May 1, from that day onwards you'll be able to download via either wifi or 2G/3G.

The date depends on the day you first got the notification
[Nexus 4 General] myturbo1:
That is not correct. I updated via 3g/4G

I believe it is showing that because the new updates in may..

Not really sure though.
[Nexus 4 General] toxictaru:
I think I'll do like some others and see what new features are involved. If there is a significant change to the UI, I may change depending on how it looks. Otherwise, I'll probably just stay on what I'm using until a custom ROM comes out using the new codebase.
[Nexus 4 General] myturbo1:
Hopefully we loose blue.. I want to see orange :D
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
Orange..You really want Orange color? :D

[Nexus 4 General] Mohit12:
it's unlikely that google will announce a major android release at an event that is not the i/o.

Then again, if that's unlikely, the google s4 was impossible.

Wow have you guys watched previous I/O events? Did you expect fireworks and strippers? Everyone is acting all hurt just because they didn't announce a new OS version yet lol.
[Nexus 4 General] k0lega:
No biggie if I don't see 4.3 today.. I'm simply satisfied they updated that horrid Google music app interface
[Nexus 4 General] lowtje:
I've been on stock ever since I got my rma. Still loving it!
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
If they don't announce 4.3 today they are probably going to wait until just before WWDC to crap in Apple's cheerios.

Yea i have..... come on , so far this one kinda sucks

Iv liked a few things though
[Nexus 4 General] Goku80:

[Nexus 4 General] Goku80:
my cat was excited to see what the I/O would bring...this is his reaction
[Nexus 4 General] illgodson:
I don't agree, its a lot of expansion...Google education was huge, Google+ is taking leaps forward which if your not using I would say your missing out. Chrome cross platform, Google search and Google music have already been updated in the playstore. Tablet optimized section in store, maps updated with tons of new features. It seems like everyone is acting like there is piss in their cheerios simply because they didn't announce 4.3

[Nexus 4 General] threeclaws:
I got bored when they moved away from the dev stuff of hour 1, I'm not a dev and don't plan to be but it was at least interesting. The features announced since hour 1 are mostly great but it all could have been covered in ~40min, instead they are giving everybody their 15min (literally.)

Oh I agree a lot of this is entirely drawn out, but they are actually trying to demo the stuff as opposed to just announcing it, showing a video and moving on.

it was just bad for us n4 users. It wasn't particularly bad otherwise. The photo thing was cool, google now will blow my mind even more, the google s4 will be nice for the rich, and updated google music and maps. Google games should be good too.

So no new version of Android is a fail? Come one guys, grow up a bit! Bearing in mind this IS day 1 of 3 there's plenty of time for something to crop up (although unlikely). End of the day it means we've not bought something which is superseded in 6 months! :D
[Nexus 4 General] Jdsimon:
So no new nexus

Im going to buy a nexus 4 and heard roumors of one with lte so i held off on it the only hardware they showed was the gs4 running stock and i assume that all hardware would be announced together so should i just pull the trigger and buy the nexus 4 now or should i wait for the last couple days if i order now ill get it by friday if i wait for the conference to be over ill get it by tuesday id prefer to get it this week though.
[Nexus 4 General] facetubespam:
You guys are silly.

Android is the November event. This is about Google as a whole. Google is not simply just Android.
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
That's true. It is odd there wasn't a new android version announcement since there has been one each of the previous I/Os.
[Nexus 4 General] Alaris:
Yeah I also held off purchasing a nexus 4. Now I dont know what to get lol. Is it worth spending that kind of money on a pure google s4?

[Nexus 4 General] androidfoshizzle:
looking at google gs4 is a different perspective, now im thinking is it a real samsung device without all the extra features that people known to like,..now its just a 5'' screen phone and nothing else special about it,..sorta like blackberry announced BBM for android and iOS yesterday..not gonna be the same when using it on a blackberry..

its like lamborghini putting out a 4 door, 4 cylinder, hybrid car...its a lamborghini but isnt,??
[Nexus 4 General] threeclaws:
I don't care about 4.3 not being announced, it wasn't going to be KLP so who cares about another incremental update, there was good content but nothing announced needed 15min of exposition and while they desperately tried to copy an apple keynote it didn't work (except for Page at the end he was very "Jobsian".) It might be time for google to have a new event with a 1hr keynote that touches on the consumer improvements to it's products and leave IO to dev stuff.

Or porsche putting out a SUV and it saving the company...
[Nexus 4 General] androidfoshizzle:
Yeah that sounds right too, I'm just thinking about the enthusiast that always been with Samsung now their gonna have Google gs4 owners screaming down their neck telling them to make a switch but why? I guess Samsung is thinking maybe if this works we'll get rid of touch wiz but keep features on future devices with stock android
[Nexus 4 General] resynx:
Regardless of the (terrible imo) pricing of the new GS4 and other thoughts on the matter altogether, this is a very good step forward. It shows Samsung was willing to put out there flagship to Google and allow Google to give it the Nexus treatment (as much as possible). We can only hope that other manufacturers will follow suit in the future. At least to me, I see this as a great step forward and something that many people have been asking for for a long time now.
