[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AxAtAx:
A brick waiting to happen. You should never flash a kernel that is NOT made for your device. Oh well going to be a good thread to watch a few days. Makes for some good reading, and good lessons for others.

Carry on!

Your welcome
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dogmatism:
As [MENTION=4800484]lordcheeto03[/MENTION] stated I flashed i9505 rom on ATT and forgot to flash kernel and booted, it displayed a notice on boot that Non-AT&T software is detected, and didn't boot...

I also tested to flash i9505 Modem on i337 and it/ i.e. odin displayed notice, of a failure due to knox [sic] rejecting it...

I booted into recovery manually flashed i337 kernel and it successfully booted without any brick. :)

What can I erase or uninstall to free up space? My Note 2 was a 16GB aswell and it had tons of free space. Not my S4...

Any ideas what I can get rid of?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mcmb03:
search the general subforum, there are like 5 threads about what bloat can be removed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mg2195:
If your referring to only have 9gb out of the box...not much you can do as the stock bloatware are system apps...which means they are located in the system partition...which means even by uninstalling the size of the system partition will remain the same...we will need a dev to change the partition layouts if we want more space

Wow, lots of ... In there haha
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Brava27:
Ahhh so it is the bloatware that actually uses up the space... I see. Ok thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mcmb03:
Yeah, it's a combination between the bloat and touchwiz. From what I've read, Canadian users don't have as much as AT&T crams the phone full of.. When I first booted my phone, I only had ~9.5gb. Ridiculous. But if I recall there is still some bloat on Canadian variants
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samb222:
Hi there, not sure if this is a common problem or not.

Whenever I take a photo on the phone it appears okay, but when I start to zoom in it comes out really blurry. The camera's set to 13mp and even on 9.6 it's blurry too. Is it like this for everyone?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beefheart:
Welcome to the primary drawback of digital zoom.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drsela:
The quality will get more poor whenever you zoom in. I haven't had any issues with poor quality while zooming yet, but I'll have an eye open for it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samb222:
Haha, I meant after I'd taken the picture. Back when I owned an iPhone 4 a couple years ago, zooming in after taking the picture was still crystal clear, and that was only a 5 megapixel camera..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pintycar:
Well... I think I get what you mean, and it has to do mainly with the resolution of the screen. When visualising pictures in a FullHD screen (2MP) the available real size is "only" 2.5times the display size on each direction. (Screen is ~2kx1k, 13MP is ~5kx2.5k pixels). And when you zoom in you quickly reach (and surpass) the real (sharp) size.

With an old phone (say 800x480) you had plenty of zooming to do before reaching the 5MP size.

The complementary reason to this is that the camera 13MP sensor is not proportionally sized with respect to good 8MP ones.

Having said all this, I find the quality of the S4 pictures to be OUTSTANDING for a mobile device.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samb222:
Ah that makes more sense, thanks :)

Which mode/settings do you use? My pictures are good but nothing spectacular.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pintycar:
I usually leave it on Auto Mode although some times I do have to lower the ISO level because it tends to like high ISO values unnecessarily. I'm not a Pro photographer though.. there's probably some thread about tips and tricks to get the best out of it.

Thanks.

Hello everybody,

I'm using 1cebox's excellent Evervolv 4.2 rom, and camera mx because the default camera doesnt work. Problem is, when recording video at the highest quality, it is very choppy, if i step it down a notch it is smooth. Is this a known problem, or are other camera apps better? Thank you

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jyabor91:
Coming for the T-mobile HTC One, i was able to flash international HTC One roms without issue. Now seeing as we can use the SystemUI.apk from the i9505 and we are using the same SoC, any know if it would be possible to flash the roms from the i9505? I mean, its possible on the HTC One with the same SoC, so why not our S4? Even if we have to flash our own Kernel.

But i have a rooted lg optimus l9 p760 and i have unlocked bootloader!

Can someone help me to relock it?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Deleted member 2530995:
You can't atm. But you can try send your phone anyway. I know that in case of Sony they sometimes didn't care about it, maybe you will be lucky with LG.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] clockcycle:
Did you use "fastboot oem unlock", if so try "fastboot oem lock".

Otherwise you've blown an efuse, can't unblow..
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] MahdiNl:
Yes , but it's not working!
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] maxver0:
You can't lock it again. It is written in unlocking bootloader Thread. You can send it to LG but you may be charged for repair if they will refuse to do it for free because of guarantee rules.

since this is my first post...u can all me newbie. :oops:

I'm trying to copy/paste some movies to device.

The card is 256mb from sandisk. Usually the is in divx mode. But the transfer takes a long time, and never ends!

So, is it because of the format of movie?

The size?

Have tried an app to rip from dvd to divs. Even then can't copy the stupid thing!

Some can gime me some hints?

thx a bunch

Oh...by the way, never thought that so many people uses the same device as me... :shock:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hooligan:
Hi,

I tend to use an SD card reader to copy large files onto my SD card.

I had big issues with the file explorer hanging when transferring a movie to my SD via Active sync. When I use a card reader, no problems and it's a LOT quicker :)

The only time I use active sync to transfer files is when i need to convert something into a PocketPC format (eg. excel to pocketexcel).

Good luck, I do enjoy watching a movie on the train or while I'm waiting for something. :)

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pena_leve:
:D

So, u are saying, use something like a card reader/writer? Guess that's what u are saying. Will try that one.

Thx a bunch! :wink:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] cruisin-thru:
I use a card reade/write and often have problems when I remove the card after copying files to it I get "delayed write error", I now click on eject before removing it which I think flushes the memory buffer.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] munkee:
If you plan on sync'ing big files (ie movies regularly), than I would also suggest you get a card reader. However, make sure you get a USB 2.0 reader to really speed things up. I'm not sure if a USB 1.1 reader will improve MUCH on the speed of Activesync.

I have a 2.0 reader, which I bought on E-bay (you can get them from as little as 6GBP) and it sync's a movie that would normally take about 18mins to sync with the cradle, to about 2 mins!

I also sync a lot of music/songs to my storage card, taking about 5 seconds to sync a song.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] nightwolf:
I transfer movie files from pc to PPC via active sync and have had no bother !

best program to use is DVD to PPC ! find it very easy to use and never failed me yet !

anyone got anything interesting to watch on XDAII then ?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Gheng68:
For some odd reason, everything is black and I don't have a functioning launcher (I chose Apex in Aroma). Also, my home button isn't working properly. I'll figure it out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] know50:
Jovy doesnt use a computer to build roms he just says the words "let there be rom" and there was rom :good:lol! You rock jovy thanks for another great rom man
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jovy23:
Yup and i also got the 24 toggles mod working for the new 4.1.2 update! There were a few more things i had to do to get it to work as the way it should since there were some more minor modifications that were needed to be added/implemented. ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ScottBroker:
Is the messaging APP tweaked for unlimited recipients....?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jovy23:
Nope not yet this is just a first release. :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mgbotoe:
Initial Impression before flash: Looking good as a rom, have all the great tweaks (and I am sure many more to come) to get us by, after all it is first release. Have MMS over wifi, which is GREAT as it have been sparking a lot of debate across the forum. Will have to actually test it out.

Also the download size is not over 1gb, so I am assuming a lot of debloat...which of course again is great.

Flashing: I wiped manually using my recovery and choose the option in the aroma to wipe (recommends). Looks good so far, no lag with aroma (don't assume it will not happen to you). Aroma have a known bug for freezing, there is NO WAY to avoid it, you can only minimize it. I will suggest not attaching your phone to the USB while you flash. Also slow down with your choices.

Many will beg to differ, this bring me back to my initial state: There is NO WAY to avoid it...so this is not the rom fault, it is not user error, it is simply aroma being over worked with a lot of option. I have noticed as a flasher if aroma have little to no choice (have a small file) it will run smoothly but if have lot of files as jovy previous (and this) rom as well as some others I have come across...you WILL experience lag freezing.

After: Boot took a while as expected, let it sit down for 5 minute and than rebooted. Working great "out of the box" :) no weird error, nothing. It is simply smooth as expected. As expected...extremely bloated :)...though I have a request: Can you keep the group play or make it an option in aroma? [/b] It is something I want to look more into ....K while I was typing this I just found out it is downloadable...but still for customization purposes :P

It is very very VERY smooth...Project flow :P

GPS My gps is working fine out of the box...locked less than 10 second, which is fine for me as I do not need it to lock instantly. Something I can fix on later with my own tweaks.

Now will set up my phone, debloat it some more if thats even possible :) and flash new kernel and see how things are
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ScottBroker:
Thanks,

I loved the messaging app you made for Darth
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Gheng68:
I literally had to let the phone sit for like 20 minutes. That was all. Just to let everyone know, do not panic if you get done installing this and you don't see anything. Let the phone sit for a bit. Other than that, it's a very good rom.

I love the inverted options by far. Black is the new thing! Everything is much smoother and this definitely feels like it's meant for the T999 versions of the S3 as everything is running smoothly for the T999 version in comparison to a ported rom.

Jovy, you killed it. This rom is awesome.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jovy23:
Great feedback man, and i have removed group play since it can be downloaded at anytime from the google play store. ;)

Which kernel is recommended for this great creation?
[One (M7) Accessories] KING LUFF:
Hi

I just thought i would share my experience after a month with the official DDF case, a case that is lacking in both design and durability. I got the case free of charge when i took out my contract with Vodafone and put it straight on the phone as soon as soon as it left the box and that's where the 1st issue came up, the case didn't actually close! Laying it on a flat surface just resulted in the the front of it springing open as there is nothing to keep it closed however after a few days it was worn in a bit and sorted itself out. Also for £25 the quality isn't that great.

After a week i took the phone out the case and to my horror it was badly scratched on the back due to tiny bits of grit getting caught in there and this is purely down to the design as there are 2 slits on the back which allows it to go into a stand but they let small pocket stuff in and if they are solid in any way they will get pressed between the case and the phone resulting in scratched aluminium. Luckily i got a replacement phone due to another issue.

I have had it on my new black One for a couple of weeks now whilst i get round to getting a new one however i have been cleaning it out daily to ensure it doesn't happen again however the case has just started falling apart. The rubber trim around the case has all peeled off and the matte finish is peeling off too, leaving a shiny plastic underneath and the red suede interior is now a dull black on some parts.

This is the worst case i have ever had for a phone and this is only with 4/5 weeks worht of use. I would strongly suggest people spend there money on a different case.
[One (M7) Accessories] fkofilee:
Do me a favour, and get one of the Krusell Cases ive posted on here, much better :)
[One (M7) Accessories] KING LUFF:
They look good, hadn't seen them before and reasonably priced too. However, I've already gone for the Otterbox Commuter which is cheaper than this POS HTC case :eek:
[One (M7) Accessories] edzilla:
I have pretty much the same problem. I love the case, I love the look of it, but it's coming undone around the edges...
[One (M7) Accessories] ratykat:
Same situation here with mine.

Red felt is going black, the rubber edge has all come off and stuff keeps getting caught on the back. luckily it hasnt scratched my baby but it is annoying.

Any suggestions for a replacement case that does the same as this? I love how it folds into a stand
[One (M7) Accessories] airicd22:
I have had this problem with almost every case I have ever had. That is why i put a full bad shield invisible shield on my phone and then put them in the case.
[One (M7) Accessories] RyanDawson:
I also received the case free with my contract phone so i decided to use it until i bought a case that i liked. I used it for 4-5 weeks and the case still looks quite new. Obviously the red felt has faded a bit but that was expected. The only real problem i saw was that the Microphone hole didnt line up properly with the phone's Mic hole which is a bit stupid.
[One (M7) Accessories] paul_59:
I bought this before reading reviews.

I agree that durability is poor,and have had peeling. Luckily not had scratches.

With regard to last point about Mic hole there's an updated version that fixes this.

I got updated replacement sent free, without requesting, from HTC accessories UK.
[One (M7) Accessories] KiraYahiroz:
Had this case since 2 weeks ago, first problem was that the hole at the bottom was not aligned to the microphone hole properly (which greatly affected call quality) so I had to manually align it. The back leaves two light grey streaks on the back of my black HO from where the slits are, but with a good wiping they disappear. The red felt is starting to fade as well. Planning to replace it when the fixed version of the Poetic Atmosphere comes back in stock at the end of the month.
[One (M7) Accessories] MrVanish123:
Thanks for heads jo mate. Will not buy
[One (M7) Accessories] AeroSatan:
The other case HTC makes for the ONE

is an excellent case. It's a plastic shell case with two speaker covers which lock the phone in from the bottom and the top. Great fit, great feel, great case. 1 outta to ain't bad I guess.
[One (M7) Accessories] ShermCraig:
Can you be more specific? "The other case HTC makes..." doesn't tell us much.... :confused:
[One (M7) Accessories] ericshmerick:
This maybe?

http://www.htc.com/www/accessories/htc-double-dip/

Is HTC.com the only place to buy this case? I want to grab one today but fear ordering direct and waiting a few weeks (it's backordered) is the only way to get one.

Do any of the carriers or Best Buy carry this exact one?

Edit: Sprint had them. It's a nice case!
[One (M7) Accessories] AeroSatan:
Yep

ericshmerick linked the right one. Also, the other case HTC makes for the ONE should tell you everything you need to know since HTC only makes TWO cases for this phone, thus if you've used the power of deductive reasoning it would've taken you to http://www.htc.com/www/accessories/htc-double-dip/ which is a great case. Looks much better on the phone itself too.

You're welcome.
[One (M7) Accessories] ShermCraig:
Eric, thanks for the link. AeroSatan, my powers of deductive reasoning tell me you're an ass. How'd I do?

You're welcome.

Simple and keeps the look of the phone too and the colour.

My DDF has scratched the top of my aluminium due to debris from either my pocket or something else getting in, marks aren't very big but they're ugly and I can see them.

Really p*ssed me off, and seeing as the DDF should cost £30 in a phone shop i think it's a joke.

As for the other DD case, man it is ugleeeeeey, it looks like a sad one eyed cartoon. Feels cheap and nasty.

FYI I have both the DD cases.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BomB@s:
Hi, I have some question about flashing a custom kernel (+Franco kernel):

1. Let's say I have Franco Kernel and a new version comes out, do I need to flash it again or I can use the app to flash it? Also, do I need to wipe something before I flash?

2. If I switch to another kernel from Franco, what exactly do I have to do? Just wipe cache+dalvik and re-flash my rom?

3. Will I have to re-flash the kernel after each rom update?

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisbo4:
Hi I'm not sure about #1 because I don't use Franco's app, but 2) Sometimes you can just flash a new kernel over the old one. Personally I prefer to dirty flash my ROM, then flash my choice of kernel. 3) You'll need to flash the kernel after a ROM update. The ROM is compiled with it's own kernel.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BomB@s:
So I need to dirty flash my ROM (=wipe cache+dalvik & flash) then install a new kernel? Thanks.

Still need an answer to Q1 though :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I use CM 10.1 and just flash the new Franco kernel ZIP over the old one and it's been fine...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
1. When a new version comes out all you have to do is flash the new version on top of the old one. You can simply download it from the app and let it do a auto-flash. No need to wipe anything.

2. It depends. Some kernels will need you to flash the stock kernel first then flash the custom kernel you want to you. Ex. Faux kernel. Don't forget to read the first post of every thread to look for installation instructions.

3. Yes, you will need to reflash the kernel after a rom is flashed. Make sure to flash the kernel last.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BomB@s:
1. Does the app need a special recovery to work? I have a TWRP recovery..

2. What do you mean by stock kernel? And is it correct that Franco is the only kernel that I need to re-flash my ROM to switch to another kernel because it changes something in the ramdisk? If so, do I just need to do a dirty flash?

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grubbster:
1. No special recovery needed. I too use TWRP.

2. Nothing special need be done to flash to Franco. Going from Franco to another kernel it is easiest to reflash your ROM. You are correct about the ramdisk.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BomB@s:
2. So going from Franco to another kernel - just dirty flash without a factory reset?

Thank you very much.
