So which one of these stock looking Roms is the best one in terms of battery, performance, features, tweaks, reliability, signal... Can you please post what Rom you have been using and if you have had any problems with it. Thanks

Im using Renovate 1.0 now. Not enough time behind the wheel to report. But no issues so far.

Try each one for yourself. Best rom is purely subjective. Every phone is different.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peerpressure:
Hey all, I've seen posts about the different kinds of controllers people use on their tf300 for playing games with and have looked around but haven't been able to find any discussions on which one(s) people think work the best/recommendations. I've been interested in getting at least one (hopefully not spending more than $25-30) and was curious on people's opinions who have tried any of the different ones out there?

Any help at all would be appreciated and I wanted to apologize as well if this topic has already been covered in a thread that I might have missed.

I use a PS3 controller with the six-axis app. i think it works nicely. So if you already have a PS3, you already have a controller. The six-axis app lets you hap touched on the screen to buttons on the controller for games that don't support game pads.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peerpressure:
I actually ended up picking up the last two they had in stock of this controller from gamestop yesterday because I had ran across it online/seen the reviews and they were so inexpensive. I thought I could try them out at least to get an idea of how they'd be and worst case just return them but so far on the mupen64+ emulator they've been working without a hitch. they're light but don't necessarily feel that cheap surprisingly so I'm looking forward to trying them out on different games out there. oh and mapping out the controller wasn't any trouble at all either.

I think if I end up doing more gaming than I am right now with my tablet then I'll try to get a ps3 controller and use the six-axis app, thanks for both your answers. if anybody else has any other contributions to add as well feel free

will this ever happen!!!!!!!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] aikon359:
well considering that the imei is the identifier for a mobile phone i dont think you will ever get to change it, and if you could, why would you want to?, the only reason someone would want to change an imei on a mobile is if its a stolen mobile and that person wanted to change the identifier *imei* so as not to get caught...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sublimatica:
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think it ever will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] peter_altherr:
never say never. i guess the imei is just a few bits on an unknown adress in one of these flash memory chips inside. what i am trying to say: the imei is nothing hard coded in the device, it is programmable. for mobile phones there are a lot of hacking tools for changing the imei e.g. of nokia phones, philips, sagem etc.

but i agree: what would be the sense of changing imei? covering a stolen phone from being identified and possibly tracked?

greetings

peter
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Peter Poelman:
There are legitimate reasons for wanting to change one's IMEI. For instance: if I were to use pepaid cards for multiple identities which I wish to remain separate towards the state, then I must use many phones, or change IMEI. And if you think resisting the eyes of a state is somehow evil, then please consider not all nation states are equally friendly at any given time. Union organizers and human rights activists in many countries stand to lose if we only associate their technical needs with crime and terrorism.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] yann:
Excellent point of view Peter!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sublimatica:
So I wonder which Nas is: Union organiser or human rights activist?

IMHO, changing IMEI number is something that will help more criminals than secretive activists, and it shouldn't be encouraged. Of course, just MHO.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Nas:
Ha Neither!

But what are the chances that a simple minded phone thief will actually have the intelligence to join a form and ask, die hard users if they could unlock the phone he has stolen from probably another die hard user.

We all have our reasons, and it makes me smile, when every time there is a chat about changing this or that on a product that people assume the worth or blindly give their assumptions on the reasons!

I remember back in the early 90s when people like myself were hacking the Amiga games and putting them in the public forum, it was the same thickle minded people that said we were all gangsters raising money to have drug parties in Europe.

The reason i wanted to unlock my IMEI is simple, the prices in the UK are far too high, so on a trip to Singapore i brought one, boxed receipt ect!

It worked fine out there an no matter what i do with it here its not working, so i have flushed it, and changed various settings and unlocked it but it has never worked as a phone.

This is just another throw of the dice.

So will all the people thinking im a freaking mugger or two bit crim, please stay away when the grown folks are talking!!!!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sublimatica:
The organised gangs of criminals who deal in stolen handsets are very cunning, and far from simple minded. The petty criminal who snatches a phone may well not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but he isn't the one who does the real business and makes all the profit.

Right now I would say that a fixed IMEI number is the best deterrent we have against large-scale phone crime, and I'd be happy to keep it that way.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Nas:
Agreed the big fish are very smart, however the smartest thing to do with a stolen hand set is simply take it out of the country it was stolen in.

Why go through the need of replacing IMEI numbers and possibly bringing attention to yourself in chat rooms, when you can get on a plane and sell the phone as perfectly working.

these gangs make big money, and i agree any method stopping them doing what they do, especially in light of the recent killing in the UK is a good thing.

What gets me is when, guys like me ask a question, for a valid reason and a chat room full of people that most probably all hack for fun, turn around not even question but put foward opinions on my motives, and liken me to a mugger!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cruisin-thru:
Did you buy the phone brand new in Singapore? I cant think of any reason for the phone not to work here unless it was previously blocked here in UK and found its way out east. Have you tried different sims from different providers? What do you hear/see when you try to place a call?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SP:
It happened a long time ago. This forum is not the right place to search for.

I can sell you IMEI resetting tool which works fine for both XDAs. It doesn't change your IMEI to desired one, but replaces your number with 0000-s.

Get your resetting tool today only for 99,99$! PM me anyway!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Asterix:
-if you want to be anonymous, you are using a prepaid card

-but, with an imsi catcher anyone (who does own such a device) can listen to your calls

-the guy behind the catcher does some filtering regarding the sim-number "guess" - and also the imei of your device

-so your are "transparent" with your prepayd-cards and also your imei.

-card changing is not that big problem, but doing this with new phones every 2 weeks or so is not fine.

-this cardf/imei changing does not regard only illegal activitys/criminals.

-imsi catcers are not only used by police, etc. - also from criminals, so it is an useable part of keeping your secrets (think about an top manager, ....)

if anyone is interested:

a imsi-catcher does nothing as simulating an gsm-Cell - doing some forwarding to the real network.

but:

the imsi-catcher doe have more tx-power, as other cells in the area, so the phone connects to the catcher.

the imsi-catcher uses not encrypted communication witch the phone, so the calls can be logged without any problems. (i only know the siemes S4 (S10to?), telling you, if the communication is not encrypted)

sorry for my bad english ;)

Hi,

The other day I finally got able to unlock my HTC amaze following the guidelines on the HTC dev site, but I haven't been able to root it to install a custom recovery on it, I searched the web and there's no tutorial for the amaze with a Mac.

If anyone could help to tell me what should I do next would be cool.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] donebrasko:
Has anyone made a rom that has any of the sgs4 features? Is it even possible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] donebrasko:
I guess that's a no? Did I post this in the right place?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Yes you posted in the right place. And from what i have seen thus far the answer to your question is no. I pay more attention to the AOSP roms though so there very well may be.

Its really early to be asking that seeing as how everything for the S4 is just kicking off. if you really want to make sure go to the Verizon Note 2 Android Development forum and look at the TW roms changelogs and see if any of them have anything from the S4 in the changelogs. Last time I looked there wasnt anything but that may have changed.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StrikkerXX:
Hey guys,

So I just got my brand-spanking new HTC One today. I upgraded from the Evo LTE, and I already love it.

But there's one thing that has been really frustrating to me for the few hours I've owned this phone... It has major WiFi issues.

My One can see the WiFi network, can connect to it, but wont give an internet connection! It's so frustrating!

My Evo LTE, being connected to the same WiFi network, connects to the internet with no problem at all.

A temporary fix is to turn off the WiFi radio, then turn it back on. As a result, I would connect to the internet for a minute or so, then it would disconnect from the internet (it's still connected to my WiFi network, and it recognizes it, and it gives no messages about the connection suggesting that something is wrong with my router/connection).

I changed the frequency bands, but they all have the same issue. I have enabled "Best Wi-Fi performance" and "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep."

I've also reseted my router numerous times... No luck. :(

Is anyone else having this issue, or did I just get a lemon? Can anyone think of a possible solution?

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] 2k4mach:
no issues here with my one and my netgear r6300 ac router.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sim-X:
Wi-Fi has been fantastic for me on my one. My evo LTE if you remember had the issue of wi-fi just shutting off after the phone was asleep. That was fixed in an update but even after that was fixed my evoLTE would show it's connected but data would not work. So I would have to toggle it on & off. I also had an issue with my sense widget not working and getting stuck. I was really starting to dislike the evoLTE because of it since your notifications quit working if your wi-fi was not connected correctly. I put up with crappy wi-fi for almost a year, mainly because I knew if I took it into Sprint they would say everything works perfect I just didn't wanna deal with. I know it's extremely frustrating to not have your wi-fi work correctly. My advice see if you can get a hold of another HTC one to test side by side. If it's a hardware issue you should get it swapped. You could also try hard resetting. I use a a WRT54GL with tomato at home and a Asus N66U at work, both have performed awesome with my one.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] CaptainCookie:
I have _exactly_ the same issue with my One. I have no idea if it's a software or a hardware problem. Tried a hard reset just yet, but it didn't seem to make a difference.

Really frustrating indeed, since the One is not very good available in the Netherlands yet, so if I return it, I might have to wait a few weeks to get a new one. I've tried it with at least 6 completely different WiFi networks, but the problem occurs with every one of them.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] thecreative121:
Only issue I have had with the WiFi thus far is it doesn't seem to have the pickup up range compared to my other phones and tablets.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rydah:
WiFi on mine is insanely crazy! Picks up signal way better than any other device I've ever owned. Might be the kernel I'm running. Try it out! Look in the original dev thread.

Sent From My HTC One, On The Now Network From Sprint!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] P_M_G:
I've noticed this as well. Areas in my office where I could get a decent wifi signal with my 3D I am dropping wifi completely with the One.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] slmclarengt:
Router brand/model? Firmware version? WEP/WPA/Open? 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz or dual band? Channel (more relevant on 2.4 than 5)?

Does your phone get a valid IP? Check on the phone itself then the router under DHCP (assuming normal configuration, IP should begin 192.168.*.*)

Can you ping any internal node (ie your router) or external node (ie google.com or the IP to google)?

If your router has WEP/WPA enabled, switch it to Open solely for testing the connection.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Mockingbird946:
Had the exact same problem. Only thing that fixed it was switching my router encryption from WPA to WEP. Works like a charm now. Best of luck.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] theo.hendriksen:
Same problem and my solution

I had the same problem. Finally I tried to reset the phone without putting all my google-account info back. Then the wifi works fine. After that a Added my google-account and can enjoy my new HTC one. The phone is really good!

Note that in this way I didn't get all my setting back from my google account (like access points), but at it is working!

i have updated my phone to official jellybean using pc suite and then rooted the phone usinf the zerospot method. and tried to install cwm.. and while the process of installing cwm the phone restarted and got stuck at the lg logo.

i had taken a nandroid backup of the phone when i was on ICS.

kindly help me to get my phone back.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Jsilvabr:
Is my friend also installed everything right when I went to the CW process it restarted and got caught in the LG logo, and the worst time to try DAZER downgrade it says usb not found ta mad if I can not solve I I will sell it to buy another device unfortunate.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Afro:
Wait...

You just rooted, but didn't unlock the bootloader? If you want to install CWM on this device you HAVE to unlock the bootloader first!

And do you see the 1st bootlogo (not moving one) or the 2nd bootlogo (this logo is moving)?

Try to pull out your battery for at least 10 seconds, then plug it in again and start flashing a new KDZ, I guess there will be no other way, since the recovery will be corrupt...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] future81:
Do you see two red lines at top . If so your bootloader is locked and don't allow cwm recovery to work Try use power + vol up while phone connected to pc it should get you to so called recovery mode from there try reboot and it should work then you have to unlock bootloader to get cwm recovery to work

Another thing I didn't try myself but installing cwm recovery is replacing file dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Maybe if you have the original file copy it over there return you back to stock recovery
[LG Optimus 4X HD] gtdaniel:

3. Then play a game and show them how smooth it will run. Take a photo with you 13M pixel Camera compare with theirs. And play a 1080 full hd video.

All those are normal upgrade. Now show them all the novel innovating functions that S4 brings out.
