Yes but read the official gsm thread they said if he source built it they would make it official
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 00negative:
Ah OK fair enough
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alpha_wolf:
but if i compiled it i could also be unstable

i stuck with unofficial port due to the stability of the rom

id rather put out a stable unofficial port than an unstable compiled "official"

you know
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akellar:
The only reason it would be less stable than the gsm version would be if you screwed something up. There's a much higher chance of having issues from a non-source port than a source built rom. Why do you think roms are built from source and not OTA's?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 00negative:
Your notion that compiled ROMs are unstable is flawed. How exactly do you think the ROM your porting from was created. Any bugs from that compile are in your port.

Compiling correctly is all about the build environment being set up correctly, the quality of the source code being used, and all the correct propriety files being included. There aren't many differences between the GSM version and Verizon version of the Nexus.

But continue to do it the way you like and are comfortable with just quit telling people compiled ROMs are unstable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alpha_wolf:
no my argument was if i compiled it COULD be unstable not that all are im not saying they all are cause most arent i mean in my own case mostly cause porting is easier for me that compiling
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alpha_wolf:
that is why i port its easier for me to do thats all cause i WILL screw something up lol i have bad luck
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fen0m:
The com.phone.process fc's when you pick up a call or after a few rings. Pulled phone apk from your pa and no problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akellar:
This exact error is because this is ported and not source built btw.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Lawl.:laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fen0m:
After I replaced the phone apk I can't receive phone calls cuz it FC's. Can't even see the slider to accept the call
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alpha_wolf:
did you read the big red text in the OP on that fix
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alpha_wolf:
it could also be because someone didnt go in to setting like i said in the OP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fen0m:
I can read, I did switch to LTE CDMA. Great rom but Im back to root box for now

AOSP...Compile from source and your users won't have to follow any instructions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorm:
Been running this for the last 2 days and everything is running awesome. Don't care if its a port or built from source as long as the rom performs great which this one does. Great job :thumbup

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khallerz:
Why do I get so terrible framerates specifically in UI with the latest CM10.1.0? CM10.1 had the same problem. CM10 worked much smoother for me but i didn't like gaming performance because we don't have good kernels for it. Google Play store has the worst laggs.. it's almost unusable.

My 3 year old phone can handle its CM10.1 much smoother than this dual core tablet.. why is that?

I'm talking about Tab 2 10.1''
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skazzy3:
Wipe data/factory reset, wipe system, preload, cache, dalvik cache and reinstall cm 10.1.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1Master:
I believe its an issue with Samsung and Touch Wiz.

I own a Gnote2 and the GS3, when using anything related to AOSP no matter if overclocking the CPU or GPU I still receive horrible frame rates on any heavy resource games like GTA3 or Vice city. Not even tolerable either and more embarrasing than anything. With the Note2 with a Quad core at 2ghz (overclocked) with ARM Mali-400 MP4 GPU should be blowing everything out of the water....

Only way I see a fully working CM rom is to build onto TWiz that way all the proper lib files and what not are present.

To be honest I really dont know just talking smack trying to figure this thing out.

Next phone possibly a Nexus device, that way I can get the total Google Experience with almost to no issues.

Rant rant ants pants

Thanks,

Sam
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeik:
Have you flashed any mods?

If not:

1.Flash stock JB 4.1.2 over ODIN

2.Install TWRP recovery

3.Download the cm10.1 rom and gapps

4.---IF YOU WANT download dholl kernel(its the best kernel for pure cm or cm based roms)-BOOTLOADER isnt locked on the tab,its unlocked completely when you buy it,only carrier locked versions may have locked bootloaders.

5.Install cm10.1 and gapps

5.Reboot and let the device stay untouched after booting for 5 minutes,so everything fits into place.

6.if you still experience little lags,go to developer options,and turn the animations off(they are useless,and consume the speed of the device)

And download Seeder entropy generator[FREE] from the xda forums(the version on market is payed,but they are the same :silly:

And try RAM manager-for games set to Hard gaming,and for every day use select balance.Thats it

7.Enjoy the dual-core! :D

Guys

Is there a suitable voice dialer available for XdaII?

I was advised to look at "Voice Dialer 2.1" but couldn't find it.

Any help would be appreciated

There is a newer version of the software that can controll the fone via voice recog, as well as call contacts, which looks quite cool.

After buying Fonix Voice Dial, it was ok for a bit since it was the best one available at the time, but after trying the Microsoft VoiceCommand for a bit, it proved to be way better than the Fonix since it was more tolerant to noice and had more functions than just voice dialing.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Oggi:
I use VITO voicedialer PE 3.0 and it works great for me!!!

I have tried Microsoft Voice command and Fonix Voice Dial, but neither worked good for me. In VITO voicedialer you add your voice to the contacts you want to be able to call. The reliability is high, even in noisy conditions.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jga2z:
I just got a used AT&T Vivid with what turns out are 2 anomalies that I failed to observe initially.

First I tried to put my ST sim card out my AT&T SGS, and get no service. No big shock initially since I have to change the APN info. Couldn't do that cause option is dimmed.Checked further, No IMEI, IMEI SV, or baseband. Took sim out and observed that I get NO sim error at startup, just "no service". Tried an AT&T sim from a friends Vivid, same result.

I was hoping that the sim card reader just might be bad, a cheap easy fix and apparently some what of a common issue. Haven't ordered one yet until I get more info on whether the no sim error and no IMEI etc are related and it's not a more serious hardware issue. I don't have a problem with repairing hardware if needed.I'm a noob here, but have a brain like a sponge, so any thoughts on how to proceed with diagnostics would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
No imei is really bad...

No one here can help you recover it without a proper backup... I have no idea how to back it up nor restore...

If you don't figure it out I'd have to suggest flashing to stock... prolly via ruu and go to an at&t store...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jga2z:
I don't think (but don't know 4 sure) that this phone is anything other than an out of the box stock configuration. I don't have service with AT&T so I don't know how much help they would be. I did check with them to make sure IMEI printed on the phone wasn't blacklisted and it's OK. All I have done was to do a factory reset to clear all the PO's stuff.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jga2z:
Does anybody have any more ideas? I am wondering if I don't need to replace the motherboard and or just the simcard/sd part. Changing the motherboard would mean a different IMEI right?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] javierarenas:
No imei means something went wrong with the bootloader. It's unlocked? Did you try to S-OFF?

I believe flashing a rom stock via RUU (that's it, flashing the PD.zip file) maybe can fix the problem.

At worst you must change the motherboard and yes, you will have a diferent imei.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jga2z:
I may be wrong, but I see no sign that anybody has done anything to change ROM or anything else on this phone. I'll try to do a S-off, and unlock it since I want to use it on ST anyway.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bimes:
hello,

i've also same problem here

flashed with stock rom but no luck ,

bootloader locked and s-off

searched forum but no success story

i think i'll return it
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jga2z:
Well I finally got a new SIM/SD card reader and installed it. No change.Tried ST, AT&T, and T-mobile sims

Still get no SIM error when booting with or without a SIM card, has an X on signal strength, and it doesn't even say "no service".

Same as to IMEI etc. info, nothing shows up.

Am I going to have to change mainboard? Or is it possible firmware/ROM changes could fix it?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jga2z:
Unlocked the bootloader tonight, no problem. Will try s-off tomorrow.

Where can I get a stock rom file?

I'll only ask this dumb ? once: Is the OS (JB,GB,ICS) different than the rom? I'm still running gingerbread 2.3.4, should I got to ICS or? Will that have any affect on the imei issue?

I might just be getting some experience with this phone if I have to do it all over with another mainboard.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jga2z:
OK, so I decided to play with this phone again after my SGS1 was freaking out yesterday. I finally found and used a phone dialer code do download the ICS update, and it downloaded (via wi-fi), installed and rebooted fine. In fact It apparently fixed my IMEI and SIM card problems because when it booted the first time with ICS it showed a big icon "no SIM installed" ya hoo!! checked IMEI in settings, all was good. Played around with settings/menus a bit to familiarize myself with the differences, then restarted...NO IMEI again, and no sim error without any SIM installed :( On the next 5-6 restarts it worked fine all but once, (total on time of around an hour) but now every restart (10+) it's back to same original issue: no IMEI shown and no SIM error. I still have no AT&T compatible SIM card to really test it but if it doesn't give me a SIM card error (no SIM card installed) it's a moot point.

It really puzzles me that it appeared to work at all if I have a bad mainboard. My daughter in-law has a Vivid with a bad screen she's going to give me to use for parts (mainboard) but I'm not sure if there's not still some hope of salvaging the current one.

Comment, thoughts etc... Please

Hi everyone .

Can I combine to Texts into one TextView ?

I know its very ununderstandable . So let's shape it :

Imagine I have to Buttons That navigates to two different activities which both Have one view , one code but different texts .

Now imagine I have 1hunderd of them .

Can I make just one activity with one TextView item but the texts inside it differs depending on choosing different buttons ? If not understandable again let me know please .

Thanks in advanced
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
Yeah, you can:

When the button is clicked, do something like this:

TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.[id of the text view]);
tv.setText([either the resource id or the text]);

You can check which text is displayed using the getText() method of the TextView and then display the other text using the method I gave you above. :good:

There is a hack for unlimited gold and money. When you copy the file character.dat over, it erases everything but you have all money and gold.

Any help would be great!

Ok, my question is I want to update my Galaxy S I9000 with the new Cyanogenmod 10.1.0 the RC build or the Stable version that is coming recently and I want to update Semaphore Kernel 2.9.24 or 2.9.24s over that.

So, will it be safe to use Semaphore over CM???

Is Semaphore compatible with Cm?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath_AU:
I have been stoked with my i9300 now for almost a year (Running custom OMEGA ROM 4.1.2) and am considering the new S4.

Of course it goes without saying that i fully intend on running a custom ROM on that too, but just wondering if i could hear from anyone that has recently gone from S3 to S4 and would like to share any tips or thoughts. In particular in relation to the custom ROM/rooting matter.

Cheers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] prototype.77:
I have had all the variants of the Galaxy S devices from the S1 to the S4.... I have ran just about every custom rom there is available for each of them.... I used the S3 the longest and was very impressed with the evolution of the devices...I have done about every mod you can do to the S3 and loved the style and the performance overall...Comparing it the the latest and greatest S4 I'm glad I upgraded.. The screen is amazing and once I started running CM 10.1 the speed and snappiness are a huge improvement over the S3... I have been running Cm 10.1 nightly's since I got mine in the mail and already I have fewer bugs than I ever did on the S3.... I normally don't run CM however roms are in short supply...I'm very impressed with the stability that CM offers already and would recommend it to anyone on the SGH-M919...To answer your question I would highly recommend you upgrade to the S4.....

P.S. The larger battery isn't just for show I get great battery life and I'm a heavy user!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lucaslion:
s4 is bigger and faster than s3. nothing else, i think.

use 9300 almost one year
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Lolento:
i also upgraded from the i9300, there is quite a bit of improvement -

1. screen is way better

2. camera way better

3. although I haven't tried every new feature yet, but I'm now using the air view feature quite often (the finger hovering)

X. temporarily cures my new-phonitis, prognosis is good for another year.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] GG2012:
Lets just say that the S4 is definitely not worse than the S3, and nearly everything is a bit better, with an extra feature here or there. Take for example, the Camera app. It's much improved with more features - hands down it is probably the best camera app for a smartphone. The question is really if it's worth the upgrade. If you can manage to sell your old S3 to fund for the S4 (and don't have to add too much extra out-of-pocket), then why not upgrade? If you like the latest and greatest, trying out all the new features and hardware with custom ROMs and MODs, why not? If you are a regular consumer who's not into any of that stuff I just mention, then probably you should stick with the S3.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] fbueller:
I've also gone S2 -> S3 -> S4. So far, I'm mixed on it. The screen is much nicer, and the additional Touchwiz features are useless since I disable them (lag) and they're only in stock apps which I rarely use. The main reason I can see to upgrade is the camera - it's FAR improved. But other than a nicer screen, maybe a little speed (not really noticeable if you have your S3 tweaked well) and the camera it's mostly the same. I got mine for free, but if I had paid significantly for it I'd have to admit to myself it was for the latest and greatest, but not for a particularly good reason. And I'm a huge early adopter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jawang26:
Went from s3 to note 2 to s4 I think Im going back to the note 2...s4 is good but I've told my friends its not worth the extra money to upgrade to a s4..Honestly the screen is nice but it's not a huge jump from 720 to 1080, also I've gotten really bad battery life but then again I'm not running any roms or anything. Either way unless your due for a upgrade I dont think its worth the money going from the note 2 to s4 would cost me 300 extra I'd rather wait for a bigger jump.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aznmode:
As mentioned, if you're paying outright $629 for the phone it isn't worth it in my opinion unless $ is not an issue for you. The benifits obvious would be slightly better camera (s3 is already great), slightly bigger screen (you wont even notice), 1080p (not much different to me), quadcore (on custom roms and kernel, this may not matter as much), and LTE. Other features are just pluses but you may not use as much as you'd think. S4 IMO is a step up not a big jump from the s3.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] FiveOhFox:
Came from s3. The screen alone makes it worth the money imo. But check it out in person if you need to be sold!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bikrame:
Android 4.2.2

Better camera

Multi window

I am happy upgrader ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ElZany:
I came from the S3 being as I suck with technology I just run the phones stock

so just going by stock I must say that the S4 is much better I just love the overall feel, look of the phone better screen, camera, faster
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] IBFaboo:
I got the gs3 initially as a phone I could keep for years and be good with, but now I am thinking the gs4 is that phone. 1080p screen won't be changing any time soon, I like the size, and it has lte. So I'm thinking of upgrading to the gs4, and then chilling with that for at least 4 years or more. I'm not a switch all the time type of person as long as what I have can take advantage of what's available.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath_AU:
I am just curious .... i was pretty sure the S4 has some cool built-in features (for example in the camera features) that none of the S3 4.2.2 ROM builds have seemed to have.

Or am i perhaps imagining this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pro_granade:
I'd do the S3

S3 is the choice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] zorprime01:
I did the same....

In April of this year I bought the s3 and in June I bought the s4... I no regrets or complaints on the s4... I'm always getting bugged by friends telling me are you getting s5 next week...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cookiemage:
I actually have moved onto the S4 from the S3. The S3 was only about 6 months old before i decided to get the S4. Formerly loyal to iPhone until the iPhone 3. Later moved onto HTC variants and never really liked Samsung devices. After the death of my One S, by impulse, purchased an S3. Wonderful phone but the lag was noticeable. After using a S4, instantly fell in love with it. The display is just amazing, the design is a bit better (slight changes from S3, but feels better to hold). Snapdragon 600 (enough said). After switching to Apex launcher, all the transitions and animations were lag free and smooth. A month later with the S4, it still runs as if i just took it out of the box. We all know that the S3 had rather ugly accessories, but the new cases that are out for the S4 have better design aesthetics. I would totally recommend switching to the S4 is you're financially stable and have the desire to purchase a new device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath_AU:
I have a question for S3 / S4 users.

When you access your RAM tab in Task Manager, how much memory are you generally using?

On my S3 i am almost always using around 700+ of my 828MB. Even when i clear the memory I am still using around 650MB or so.

Is this normal?

And i am keen to know how much memory the S4 users are using.

Cheers
