is this normal?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
certainly not normal. But if the light is flashing, it shouldn't be bricked, I would keep trying to power it on into bootloader.

Hi,

I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S III and I wanted to install Stock Android on it. My question is, what is the ROM that is closest to stock Android, similar to those on the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4? Is it Cyanogen Mod 10.1, AOSP,...? Any help would be great!

Thanks,

CyanogenMod (CM) is pretty close to stock Android. I don't know if you'll get much closer to that without a Nexus device.

I am going to get a Nexus S tomorrow, AND AS SOON AS I GET IT...BOOM! I Am gonna root it :D :D It has always been my favourite phone in terms of everything. Today over the net I read many complaints, about the Ram issue and the Battery issue after upgrade to Jellybean! Guys, can you suggest what would be the best Rom that would fix both the issues! I wanna play Hd games like NFS:MW, backstab, but I also want my battery to last atleast 10-11 hours! Help Me! :( :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maisam.asif:
Carbon ROM is the best for daily usage...

GamerzROM is good for gaming..

Both, Marmite and devil's kernel are good for battery life...

However, Marmite kernel has a little better battery life compared to devil's better gaming

Welcome to the Nexus S club :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxdevilz:
:D :D

Thanks mate! :D You are using the Carbon Rom and the Marmite Kernel. how is the performance, I would rather listen to music max. 1-2hours a day, I surf the web very less, Have you tried playing any HD game with your config? :D and btw how much ram are you getting free bro? enuf to play a game, I mean it wont close down all of a sudden would it? :D and lastly I dnt always wanna play, just at times! not a hardcore gamer! :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sloth'd:
I don't think you'll be able to do any serious gaming on the nexus s. It just doesn't have the power to run a lot of those HD games. Hell it sometimes has trouble with temple run 2. As for the 10-11 battery life.... Unless you use an extended battery or don't touch your phone, your gonna find it difficult :( However the unofficial Carbon ROM (17th April one, there's a link to it floating round) with Marmite 8.5 bigmem is the fastest I've found, pretty much faultless in normal use. Helly bean, which comes with Devil kernel is really good as well, altho slightly slower for me YMMV. have fun with your new phone :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxdevilz:
Thanks for the info! :)

Well, thanks for the info, can you please help me by provinding the Link for the unooficial Carbon Rom you mentioned? and also I am not into that much gaming, I have seen NFS:MW work great on it, Happy with it and other small games, Enough for Show off ;);) and I do listen to music, so how much battery backup do you get? :D

And Hell Yeah! I surely have no complaints abt the phone! Its been 2years since its release, and if I bought it now, you surely know I must have something for it :D :D

and Mine has Upgraded to JB, I am giving the first charge for 7-8 hours, lets see how much battery do I get :)

http://goo.im/devs/Gingo21/Carbon/Crespo/CARBON-JB-EXP-17AVRIL2013-161548-crespo.zip

Here's the link to the unofficial carbon. My battery life is about 10-12 hours of not much use. That's airplane mode for 6 hours, 2 hours listening to music, and 2 hours browsing, the rest in my pocket. That's about 2 hours onscreen time, with no overclocking (my phone can't take it).

I have run the battery down to 0 in about 3 hours, constantly browsing on WiFi. My phone does have a "new" OEM battery tho, my battery life was even worse with the one that had been used for 2 years. BTW these "best ROM/kernel threads" are usually closed. I think there's a rule against it. Just flash a bunch of different ROMs and find which is best for you. Every phone is different.

If your current radio stack works ok I would suggest leaving it alone, if your connection to activesync is likely to fail I suggest you use sd card flashing, much more reliable.

In short, for those of us that came from other Android phones, what was your first realization of "this is the way an Android device should be"?

Mine is two-fold, in a way. First was the sheer amount of choice in customization we have (as in, I spent most of my free time during the two day shipping process reading ROM threads :silly: ). The other was just being able to update CM10.1 with an OTA. I'm used to flashing things manually, but I'm a fan of things being easier than they necessarily need to be.

What are yours?

My first droid was the good old HTC Magic AKA T-Mobile MyTouch 3G. After immediately falling in love with the Android platform, it didn't take very long before deciding to upgrade to the Nexus One. From there, I went to the Nexus S, then decided to play around with other Android variants from HTC and Samsung. Eventually, I got to the point of missing Nexus (you know, like a long lost love) and instantly decided on the N4 as my current device. The rest is history. While there are several other devices I'd like to try out, I think I wanna stick with Nexus from now on. The community support is unlike any other, and it's always a bonus to be the first to receive updates directly from Google.
